Li Jue knew better than anyone how he got the name Li Zhong and his title of Baron of Xianyang County.

To put it bluntly, this was just Old Li deceiving the imperial court by saying that he had finally found his long-lost grandson and then had him impersonate him.

Therefore, this kind of thing cannot be brought to light.

If someone with ulterior motives finds out, not only will Li Jue be in trouble, but Old Li will also be punished.

When Changsun Wuji saw that "Li Zhong" was about to leave, he quickly stepped forward to stop him.

"Young master, why are you in such a hurry to leave?"

"I heard from your servant that you are knowledgeable in astronomy and geography, and that you know everything. That's why I thought of asking you for some advice."

"ah?"

Upon hearing this, Li Jue glared fiercely at Pan Hu, making Pan Hu feel guilty. He quickly snatched the dough from his apprentice's hand and began working diligently.

This guy is great in every way, except he can't shake his habit of bragging!

"well!"

"Old man, don't listen to the servant's nonsense. I'm just a little kid, how would I know anything about astronomy and geography? That's just the loyal servant trying to make his young master look good!"

"oh?"

"May I ask if the young master has begun his studies?"

What does "enlightenment" mean?

"It's about reading and writing."

"Oh, I know the characters, but I don't write them well, and people often criticize me for it..."

"Judging from the young master's accent, he seems to be from Chang'an. How come he has a servant with a Qianzhou accent?"

"this……"

Upon hearing this, Li Jue immediately broke out in a cold sweat. Were all the old men in the Tang Dynasty this capable? They could see through his secrets with just a few words.

Little did they know that the government in feudal dynasties strictly controlled the people, and many people never left their county in their entire lives, let alone travel through prefectures to reach Chang'an.

Therefore, each region has a very distinctive accent, and anyone familiar with local accents can tell the difference just by listening.

"Take your time, sir. I have homework to do and need to get home!"

Li Jue threw down those words and ran off, giving the other party no chance to stop him.

Changsun Wuji watched Li Jue's departing figure and fell into deep thought, remaining silent for a long time. It wasn't until quite a while later that he called his subordinates over.

"check!"

"Investigate this person's entire past!"

"promise!"

After making the arrangements, Changsun Wuji felt it was inappropriate and sent his trusted confidant to Qianzhou.

Their sole purpose was to investigate whether Li Jue's tomb was empty!

Ganlu Hall of Taiji Palace.

"Your Majesty, please have a cup of tea and rest!"

Xu Hui diligently brought a cup of tea to Li Shimin, who took it and drank it all, tea leaves and foam.

"Your Majesty, why drink it so guzzlingly? You can only appreciate the flavor by sipping it slowly, hehehe..."

Li Shimin smiled bitterly upon hearing this.

"I don't have the time for that. I'm already incredibly busy, but once these next few days are over, I'll have some time to relax!"

Xu Hui's eyes lit up when she heard this.

"Your Majesty, does this mean we can go see the little prince?"

When Li Shimin heard Xu Hui say this, he smiled and asked.

"What, you miss that child too?"

Upon hearing this, Xu Hui snuggled up to Li Shimin and acted coquettishly.

"The little imperial grandson is so adorable, how could I not want him?"

"Your Majesty doesn't know, ever since I saw the little grandson last time, I've been dreaming about sleeping with the chubby baby every night, hehehe..."

Upon hearing this, Li Shimin's heart stirred, and certain parts of his body even reacted.

"I've been too busy these past few days and have neglected my beloved consort. I'll visit you tonight..."

Xu Hui couldn't withstand such bold and lewd words, and her pretty face immediately flushed red.

"Your Majesty, that's not what I meant, I..."

"Then I won't go?"

"Ugh, I hate it..."

"Hahaha!"

Just as Li Shimin was shamelessly flirting with his beloved concubine, Zhang Anan walked in with a gloomy face.

"Your Majesty, according to the report from the Hundred Cavalry Commandery, Changsun Wuji's men have already set their sights on the Imperial Grandson!"

"What?"

Li Shimin's expression changed drastically upon hearing this.

"How is this possible?"

"My eldest grandson is in Xianyang. How did Changsun Wuji find him?"

"Your Majesty, the Imperial Grandson has arrived in Chang'an! He bumped into Changsun Wuji at Pan Hu's fried dough stick stall!"

"A chance encounter?"

Li Shimin chuckled coldly.

There are no such things as chance encounters in this world, only deliberate schemes!

"etc!"

"When did that grandson arrive in Chang'an?"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Anan's expression immediately changed, becoming awkward and somewhat embarrassed.

"Your Majesty, the imperial grandson has actually been in Chang'an for some time now..."

"What!"

Upon hearing this, Li Shimin was so angry that he immediately stood up, pointed at Zhang Anan's nose, and cursed him.

"You old fool, why didn't you report such a big thing sooner!"

"Your Majesty, this old servant only thought that you've been too busy lately, and besides, the Imperial Grandson hasn't done anything outrageous in Chang'an, just led a few dozen villagers to set up a stall there, so this old servant..."

"You, you're getting more and more senile as you get older!"

"Why did I place him in Xianyang? Why did I delay revealing his identity? I did it to protect him and plan for his future!"

"You're so indulgent towards him just because you're biased. If something serious happens to me, can you bear the responsibility?"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Anan was so frightened that he immediately knelt down.

"This old servant knows his mistake, Your Majesty, please punish him severely!"

Li Shimin waved his hand impatiently.
