Back to Tang Dynasty to be Emperor

The next day, when Li Ke woke up, his head hurt and his body was not strong at all. He secretly sighed that he couldn't drink so much anymore. Although the alcohol content was not high, drinking too much would hurt his body.Lan'er found that Li Ke had woken up, so she helped him take a bath and change clothes, and then prepared a bowl of sweet millet porridge, and she was more considerate than her own wife in obediently serving Li Ke.

After Li Ke drank the porridge, he found that his body had regained his strength, and his head didn't hurt much.He left the Hall of Juyi and came to the study, and started another day of ordinary but fulfilling otaku life.Changsun Bingning never came to Hanwang Mansion again because Mrs. Changsun was hit by Changsun Huan's incident and fell ill.Although Li Ke missed her in his heart, he didn't dare to let her come to the Han Palace to meet him at this time, so he could only temporarily suppress his thoughts in his heart.

The days passed quickly, and on the fifth day after Li Chengqian's wedding, that is, New Year's Eve, Li Ke came to Tai Chi Hall again.Because he wants to participate in the Nuo dance held in Taiji Hall with the courtiers, and then to participate in the family banquet held by Li Shimin in Ganquan Palace, and to hold a family banquet in Ganquan Palace with the eldest grandson empress, Yang Fei, Li Chengqian and other family members for New Year's Eve .

After the Nuo dance in the Taiji Hall ended, Li Shimin accepted the congratulations of everyone, and Li Ke came to Ganquan Palace.The family banquet in Ganquan Palace was not as formal as the court banquet, and Li Shimin did not show the majesty he usually had when going to court and discussing affairs, so the atmosphere was more harmonious. What a joke.At this time, Li Ke paid special attention to Li Chengqian and the princess Su Juan beside him.As a princess, Su Juan is not picky about her appearance and bearing, enough to be worthy of Li Chengqian's status as a princess.Li Chengqian himself was newly married not long ago and tasted the joy of men and women for the first time. His face was radiant and energetic, which surprised Li Ke. Will Li Chengqian become another person?"

Seeing Li Ke alone in a daze, Li Shimin asked kindly, "Ke'er, what are you thinking? How did I find that you are always in a state of restlessness today?"

Li Ke was taken aback. He didn't expect Li Shimin to notice his expression, so he couldn't help but said anxiously, "Father, my son is thinking about the war between Western Turks and Eastern Turks." Li Ke didn't say anything. The stunned Li Chengqian, Li Tai and Li You showed embarrassment, and at the same time secretly scolded Li Ke, you are too shameless, obviously because you were distracted by the princess Su Juan just now, but you want to say that you are thinking about something Turkic war.The same is the prince, you Li Ke said so, didn't you just show in front of your father that you still care about political affairs on a day like New Year's Eve, and we only care about eating, drinking and having fun?

Li Ke glanced at Li Chengqian, Li Tai, and Prince Li You who were embarrassed, and knew what he said was too obvious, and just about to explain, he heard Li Shimin ask, "Then what do you think about the Eastern and Western Turks? "Li Shimin will naturally not let go of this opportunity to test and teach Li Ke.

"Royal Father" Li Ke glanced at Concubine Yang and Empress Changsun, "Royal Father"

"Your Majesty, today is New Year's Eve. Our family should have a good New Year's Eve dinner, so you don't want to test Ke'er." Seeing Li Ke's expression, Empress Changsun understood what he wanted to say to stop Li Shimin.

"Good! Good." Li Shimin smiled, "Today we only talk about Fengyue, not state affairs." Li Shimin glanced at Empress Changsun and Concubine Yang, and said happily.

Because of the obstruction of Empress Changsun, Li Ke finally escaped Li Shimin's test to teach him.To be honest, he said it in a panic just now.If he was really asked to analyze the relationship between Eastern and Western Turks and talk about his own views, he really couldn't give any satisfactory answer to Li Shimin.After Li Shimin finished speaking, Li Ke took the lead in presenting the congratulatory gift to Li Shimin. He has now learned how to restrain himself among the princes, unlike last year when a Tang knife stole the limelight, making the gifts of Li Chengqian and others look overshadowed. Light.At first, Empress Changsun felt that it was impolite for Li Ke to present gifts to Li Shimin before Li Chengqian. Even Concubine Yang who was on the side was shocked by Li Ke's actions.However, when Li Shimin saw the gift Li Ke first gave him and said three good words in succession, Empress Changsun finally understood Li Ke's actions just now. She glanced at Concubine Yang, who was concerned about Li Ke, and gave her a grateful look.After Li Ke's gift, Li Chengqian, Li You, Li Tai and others presented their own congratulatory gifts at the right time, but Li Shimin just glanced at their gifts and didn't say much, making them disappointed with his gifts and at the same time expressing gratitude to Li Ke. Curious about what gift he presented to his father.

Because of Li Shimin's question just now, Li Ke was so scared that he didn't dare to think about other things at the next banquet. He concentrated on accompanying Li Shimin and Concubine Yang to have a New Year's meal, and then left the palace.

It was Haishi when he returned to King Han's Mansion, but instead of resting, he came to Juyi Hall instead.Because in the Juyi Hall, everyone in the King's Mansion of Han was waiting for him to spend New Year's Eve together.

"Keep everyone waiting," Li Ke glanced at Ma Zhou, Xu Jingzong and others, and said with a guilty smile, "Father is hosting a banquet in the palace, and this king must respect the filial piety of a son of man. Keep everyone waiting."

"Your Highness, I dare not wait for everyone!" Ma Zhou said, "It is our blessing to spend New Year's Eve with Your Highness, how can we have any other complaints."

"Yes, Your Highness, spending New Year's Eve with you is my happiest moment." Hou Hu, one of the two wolves, said. Li Ke hosted a banquet on New Year's Eve, and Li Ke entertained all the people in the mansion. There is a place in the Hall of Justice.They are all orphans, and it is rare for them to have such a lively and comfortable life on New Year's Eve.So it is very important for them to spend New Year's Eve with Li Ke.

"My king understands your thoughts, so everyone sit down." Li Ke said, and then he stepped up and sat next to Su Dingfang and asked, "Dingfang, how have you been in Xishan Camp recently?"

When Su Dingfang returned to Hanwang Mansion, he was very moved when he heard that Li Ke had bought him a mansion in the capital. Now that Li Ke was concerned about his life, he said in a respectful tone, "Thank you for your concern, the future is going well, heavy cavalry camp The training has begun to take shape, and there is absolutely no problem in participating in ordinary battles. If you want to achieve the ability to compete with the Turkic cavalry, you need to intensify your training and experience the baptism on the battlefield."

"En," Li Ke nodded, and seeing that everyone was staring at him and Su Dingfang, he couldn't help but smiled, "Dingfang, today is New Year's Eve, so don't think about the re-riding battalion, and have a good New Year's Eve .”

Su Dingfang also noticed everyone's reaction to himself and Li Ke, and couldn't help showing an embarrassed look, "Thank you, Your Highness."

Li Ke raised his wine glass and said to everyone, "The first cup of wine is my respect to you. I want to tell you that following me has made you hard."

"Your Highness, don't dare to be that!" Ma Zhou was the first to say. "Your Highness, I am ashamed of you!" the crowd shouted.

"Dry" Li Ke drank the wine in a toast, and everyone did not hesitate to drink the wine in the glass.

"The second glass of wine is toast to you, I hope you have a bright future. Do it." Li Ke finished speaking and drank it all, and everyone raised their glasses and drank it all in one gulp.

"The third glass of wine." Li Ke paused for a moment when he said this, "I still want to respect you, and hope that we can realize our revenge and realize our wishes and ideals! Do it!" Li Ke continued to drink until the wine was dry.

"Do it!" Everyone was aroused by Li Ke and said loudly.

After three glasses of wine, the banquet started. Li Ke was the protagonist, everyone wanted to toast him, and he never refused to come.Everyone was infected by Li Ke's arrogance, and they drank to the brim like him.Even Yang En, who seldom drank alcohol, showed a hint of drunkenness.

Li Ke himself didn't know when he passed out. When he woke up, he found that he was already on the bed. The sky outside the window was bright, and it was obviously already past time.Li Ke knew that he couldn't sleep late on the first day of the new year, and he had to go to the palace to pay New Year's greetings to Li Shimin, Concubine Yang and the concubines in the harem of Empress Changsun.So he bathed and changed clothes under Lan'er's clothes, and then hurriedly left Hanwang Mansion.

When Li Ke entered the palace, he first went to Ganquan Palace to greet Li Shimin, and the servant told him that the emperor was in the Queen's Lizheng Hall.Li Ke came to the Lizheng Hall and found that besides Li Shimin, there were many other concubines there, apparently here to pay New Year's greetings to the queen, including his mother concubine Concubine Yang.Crown Prince Li Chengqian and King Wei Li Tai are also indispensable.Li Ke greeted Li Shimin and all the concubines, and exchanged greetings with Li Chengqian and Li Tai for a while before leaving the Lizheng Hall with Concubine Yang.

Back at Concubine Yang's Qianqiu Palace, Li, Li Rong and Li Jing naturally asked Li Ke to tell them stories, because Li Ke's fabricated stories were unheard of by them, and they were so attractive.Naturally, Li Ke would not refuse such a request. He will leave Chang'an in a few days to go to Bingzhou Township, and he cannot return to Beijing without Li Shimin's will. He tried his best to satisfy them.When Li Ke told the three people the story she made up, Concubine Yang sat beside her kindly and looked at her two pairs of children, her face was full of happiness.

Soon it was evening, Concubine Yang was reluctant to leave Li Ke, so she left Li Ke to eat in Qianqiu Hall.Li Ke thought that there would be nothing serious about returning home anyway, so why not spend more time with his mother, concubine and younger siblings.Therefore, after having dinner with Concubine Yang in Qianqiu Palace, he returned to Hanwang Mansion.

After returning to the Han Palace, Li Ke left the Han Palace without much rest. He immediately came to Feng Deyi's mansion to pay him New Year's greetings.Li Ke has great respect for this old man who has reached the end of his life.No matter whether he flirts with his whiskers or is opportunistic in court, at least his support for him is genuine and from the heart.Li Ke didn't think of anything else, but Feng De's consistent support was enough to make him respect this old man Xiao Ran.Because, Li Ke's philosophy of life is that if others throw peaches at you, I will return them with plums;

Feng Deyi's health is not very good, his face looks a little pale.He was very moved when he saw Li Ke came to his house for the first time to pay him New Year's greetings.two people in the study
