"How is it? Have you recovered?"
When he came to Li Chengqian, Zhou Yu sat down next to Empress Changsun.
That carefree and relaxed look made Li Chengqian's mouth twitch.
What is the identity of my mother?
That is the Empress of the Tang Dynasty.
Although I know that Mr. Zhou is of an extraordinary status, isn't it somewhat inappropriate for him to be so close to my mother?
I turned around to see my father's reaction, but I saw that he was writing with a wolf-hair brush and didn't pay any attention to what was happening here.
Grandpa and a few of the younger sisters did glance over here, but it was just a glance, as if all this was as it should be.
Even the mother opposite was smiling at Mr. Zhou, showing no dissatisfaction at all.
For a moment, Li Chengqian felt that his brain was not enough.
"I've just explained the situation here to the kid, but he doesn't seem to have fully accepted it yet."
Seeing Li Chengqian's face full of disbelief, Empress Changsun had no choice but to explain.
Upon hearing this, Zhou Yu casually patted Li Chengqian's shoulders twice before teasing him, "As a brother, your ability to accept things is somewhat inferior to that of your sisters! Remember when Sizi first came and dared to ask me for food?"
Li Chengqian: ...
Is it because of my poor ability to accept things?
This matter is really too unbelievable, okay?
I thought my father and mother were just taking their sisters on a long journey, but who would have thought that they would arrive more than a thousand years later!
And judging from the scene before us, it is obvious that they have already settled down.
And the delicious food on the plate in front of me.
Although I haven't had the chance to taste it yet, I can tell from the aroma alone that it is definitely a rare delicacy.
Okay~
He was secretly happy that he could temporarily serve as regent, but he didn't expect that he was just a strong man captured by his father.
Looking at how happy their family is, why do I feel like I've been abandoned by my family?
right.
That's right.
It means being abandoned.
Look at the transparent crystal windows, the various luxurious and comfortable furniture and furnishings, and the warm spring-like temperature. It is simply a paradise on earth.
But what about the Tang Dynasty?
Due to heavy snow, the solar power supply system has completely stopped working.
The air conditioner, which was originally useless, has become a complete decoration.
As for the charcoal brazier, it's not very useful unless you sit next to it all the time.
And most of the time, the front of the body is warm, but the back is still cold.
Now think about it, Taiji Hall is not the seat of supreme imperial power, it is simply a cold kiln.
Thinking of how he was smugly reviewing the memorials just now, Li Chengqian felt bitter and resentful.
"Hehe, brother, why are you dumber than Sizi?"
Hearing Zhou Yu praising him, the little kid immediately ran over with his short legs.
Her words became the last straw that broke the camel's back, instantly breaking Li Chengqian's defenses.
Unfortunately, just as his eyes were reddening, Li Er, who had just finished writing the Spring Festival couplets, came over with a look of disgust, "Alright, you look like you've never seen the world. Stop standing there, bring the fried chicken, and come back with me to do something important."
Li Chengqian: ...
I just arrived and haven’t even sat down yet, and you want to go back already?
He wanted to say something, but unfortunately Li Er didn't give him the chance.
After scolding his son angrily, his expression instantly changed to one of flattery. He turned around and smiled at the little kid nestled in Zhou Yu's arms, saying, "Sizi, can you please send Aye back now?"
Zhou Yu: ...
Isn’t the discrimination a bit too obvious, Mr. Deng?
No wonder Li Chengqian rebelled in history.
Anyone who is treated differently like this for a long time will probably end up yelling out in anger: Your Majesty, please call me the Crown Prince.
Seeing that Li Chengqian had already picked up the plate in front of him with a sullen look, Zhou Yu immediately waved his hand and said, "It's not right to leave right after you've arrived. I'll cook some dumplings later. It won't be too late to go back after we finish eating."
"Yeah~ Xiao Mengjun said the dumplings are very delicious~"
The little kid also agreed, and as he spoke, crystal saliva flowed from the corners of his mouth again.
When Li Chengqian heard Zhou Yu invite him to dinner, his heart suddenly warmed.
But Li Er was still standing next to him, so he could only stand there awkwardly, not daring to say a word.
Li Er saw this and waved his hand nonchalantly, "This guy asked you to stay, so stay!"
After saying that, he once again urged the little girl anxiously, "Sizi, quickly send Aye back. It's still early and the imperial edict can be delivered to the ministers' houses."
"Yeah~"
The little kid nodded, then pulled up Li Er's sleeve and disappeared on the spot.
This sudden scene left Li Chengqian stunned.
So that’s how I followed him here just now!
Is this the method used in later generations?
But why did only Sizi master it?
For a moment, Li Chengqian's mind was filled with all kinds of questions.
Seeing this, Empress Zhangsun, who was standing next to her, couldn't help but say with a loving expression, "Don't just stand there. This fried chicken tastes better when it's hot."
"Thank you, mother~"
Hearing the reminder, Li Chengqian finally came back to his senses. After thanking Empress Zhangsun, he stood up and bowed to Zhou Yu, saying, "Thank you, young master."
"We're all family, why be so polite?" Zhou Yu waved his hand and continued, "You stay with Auntie for a while. I'll go to the kitchen to see how the dumpling filling is doing."
After saying that, he stood up and prepared to go to the kitchen.
But the next moment, the little kid appeared on his back, "Little Nianjun, I want to make dumplings too~"
"Okay, okay, after I adjust the flavor of the filling, we'll all make dumplings together."
Zhou Yu nodded, then carried the little kid directly into the kitchen.
Watching Zhou Yu disappear, Li Chengqian, holding the fried chicken, couldn't help but say enviously, "Young Master is so kind to me."
"That's right."
Empress Zhangsun nodded in agreement, and then continued earnestly: "It's not just Sizi, Xiaoyu has nothing to say about our entire Tang Dynasty.
If it weren't for Xiao Yu's help, A Niang might not have survived until now.
Without Xiaoyu's help, Sizi would probably have died young.
If Xiaoyu hadn't helped, Lizhi would have been ready to get married. If she had really married Chong'er, how could she have escaped the fate of dying young..."
Li Chengqian: ???
Doesn’t the young master only favor Sizi?
Why are there so many life-and-death matters?
In that case, isn't he his family's savior?
I thought that the young man was a talented person who could be used by his father and influence his decision.
But now it seems that it is not the case at all.
I'm so glad that I can come here today.
If this goes according to the previous plan of suppression and winning over, his position as the crown prince will probably be abolished by his father in an instant.
When he thought of this, he couldn't help but wipe the cold sweat that had just appeared on his forehead.
