This banquet was also very enjoyable, and the guests and hosts toasted frequently. It was the first time since Li Xiang came back that Li Shimin was so happy. He had gained face in front of his daughter and grandson, and Li Shimin was a little more pleased with Li Xiang.

After spending time at Wushan, Li Xiang and Princess Xiangcheng left the Jinluan Palace together.

"Aunt, please stay!"

Although Princess Xiangcheng had something to say to Li Xiang, this was not the right place to talk in the palace. She had planned to talk to Li Xiang tomorrow, but she didn't understand why Li Xiang brought it up first.

"Xiang'er, do you have something to say?"

Princess Xiangcheng said with some confusion, but Li Xiang was very kind to their family this time. If Li Xiang hadn't spoken in front of the emperor, this fourth-grade official wouldn't have known how to speak. He was far away. But it’s also a place to earn credit.

"The nephew does have something to say. We all know exactly what kind of errand my cousin is going to the northwest this time, so the nephew wants to stay with his cousin for half a day. After the imperial grandfather wakes up, the nephew wants to invite his cousin An imperial edict.”

There are many informants around here, but Li Xiang doesn't want to hide anything. Everyone knows what kind of thing King Qi Li You is. If Xiao Shougui wants to keep an eye on him, not having an imperial edict is simply nonsense. If you expect to explain to him with sincerity, maybe What he got back was a horse whip.

Princess Xiangcheng was originally worried about this. Her son had read a lot of sage books, but he didn't have many practical operations. If he went to the northwest so rashly, he might suffer a loss, but he couldn't do it in the situation just now. Speaking out, if it were said out, it would be dissatisfaction with King Qi Li You. Unexpectedly, Li Xiang said it out.

Princess Xiangcheng did not dare to offend Qi Wang Li You, but Li Xiang had no such idea. Few of the princes in the capital had a good relationship with Li Xiang, and the remaining ones did not have any so-called offense. As long as everyone could Just get by.

After Xiao Shougui listened to Li Xiang's words, he was very grateful in his heart. Although he was the emperor's grandson, the emperor had so many grandsons that it was impossible for his own grandchildren to take care of them all, let alone a nephew. Looking at his uncle, this is indeed a bit embarrassing.

"In that case, let your cousin disturb you, and also ask him to go visit your father. I will host a banquet at my house the next day and invite your father to the banquet."

The corners of Princess Xiangcheng's eyes were a little moist. Although she met this nephew for the first time, she cared about her son. There were many nephews in the capital, but because of the Xiao family's loss of power, these people had little contact.

"That's natural. Aunt, please go ahead. I'll send someone to send my cousin back after sunset."

Li Xiang said very respectfully next to him, you must know that Li Xiang is now the third person in the Tang Dynasty. Although Princess Xiangcheng is Li Xiang’s elder, she is no longer a close relative of the royal family. If Li Xiang is not polite, then It makes sense. The Tang Dynasty paid attention to national etiquette first and family etiquette second.

Princess Xiangcheng agreed, and then told her son a few words. The person she would meet with later was His Highness the Crown Prince. Although he was also a biological uncle, there were many uncles in the capital, and uncles and uncles were still different.

"Thank you cousin for helping me. Although Brother Yu is a few years older, he is far behind my cousin in terms of officialdom and dealing with people. I hope my cousin can give me some advice in the future."

On the way to the East Palace, Xiao Shougui also expressed his sincere thanks. Li Xiang had been observing for a long time. This cousin was considered a capable person, but he had been away from the court for too long, so he didn't know how to deal with some things.

"Cousin, what are you talking about? We are direct cousins. We have to support each other in the future. To be honest, I have also put my mind into the northwest region. Wherever King Qi goes, I am really afraid that he will give me It’s messed up.”

When he arrived at the gate of the East Palace, Li Xiang spoke much more casually, and he was not afraid of others hearing his words. This is what Li Xiang was thinking. Li Shimin is a master of psychological warfare. If you don't let him listen, To tell the truth, he may have more ideas, but then it will not be beautiful.

The two cousins ​​got more and more excited as they talked, and they had many things in common. They didn't even know they were inside the East Palace. After Qian Ping reminded them, Li Xiang took them to his father's side.

The relationship between Li Chengqian and Princess Xiangcheng was pretty good. When Li Chengqian was acting recklessly a few years ago, Princess Xiangcheng sent back several letters just to try to persuade her, but Li Chengqian couldn't listen to anything he said at that time. When I saw the letter from Princess Xiangcheng, I was disappointed.

However, I still remember this kindness. You must know that Li Chengqian was about to be deposed at that time. Everyone knew the result and no one would waste time on him. Princess Xiangcheng can still remember this matter, which is considered a consideration. The relationship between brother and sister has broken up, and Li Chengqian has always wanted to repay the favor, but he never had a chance.

"Get up, we are all a family. Don't make these false etiquettes. I will host a banquet for your father in the East Palace someday. Is his health okay?"

He was also very happy to see his eldest nephew Li Chengqian in front of him. After all, he was his blood relative, so he quickly asked someone to give him a seat.

Listening to the two people in front of him talking about each other, Li Xiang had no interest at all. He should leave his time to you two. Li Xiang went back to take a nap, and the two of them were still discussing in the study. It should be almost time.

"Is your Majesty awake?"

Li Xiang stretched, and Qian Ping was already waiting beside him.

"Long Live Master has woken up. I have something to say with the Prime Minister in the Qinzheng Hall right now. However, the Prime Minister has been in for quite some time, so it should be almost done."

Qian Ping said in a low voice, no matter how powerful Li Xiang is now, it is unreasonable to keep an eye on the emperor's work and rest time, so he has to stay hidden.

Since Wang De surrendered, Li Shimin's work and rest time has not been a problem, so whenever he wants to do anything, he has to choose a free time. If you are angry, you can run over there as fast as you can. , isn’t this looking for scolding?

Li Xiang asked someone to send a letter to Xiao Shougui, and then ended his conversation with Li Chengqian.

The two of us have made an appointment to go to the Xiao family for a banquet first, and then to the East Palace for the banquet.

While Li Xiang was sleeping, the two people agreed on two meals. From this, we can see how idle the nobles in Chang'an City are. Apart from entertaining guests, they have nothing else to do.
