Chapter 90: Li Ping visits the prison
Xu Lian, who was standing beside him, could only smile and said, "Your Majesty is right, Li Hao's handwriting is indeed a bit ugly."
"Is it just a bit ugly?" Li Shimin said with a treacherous face, "It's too ugly. If this poem was not written very well, I'm really afraid of being dirty."
Xu Lian continued to laugh: "Your Majesty is right, it's very ugly, almost tainted Your Majesty's dragon eye."
Li Shimin looked at Shi twice again and turned to ask Xu Lian: "Is this kid still safe in prison recently?"
Xu Lian nodded and said, "Your Majesty, this time Li Hao is much more stable than before. He sang something in prison every day. The spy learned a few sentences, and sang like this: 'Betray my love, you have taken the debt of your conscience, and finally I know the truth and tears fall...'"
"Stop!" Li Shimin raised his hand impatiently, "What kind of messy things are singing like? Gong Bugong and Yu Buyu, what else did he do besides singing these?"
Xu Lian continued: "He occasionally practices calligraphy and reads books, but he doesn't make much noise anyway."
"Well, this is still like something." Li Shimin nodded and said, "If he dares to make trouble again, I will let him sit down the prison."
Xu Lian didn't have any conversation. He served Li Shimin for many years and knew Li Shimin too much. This sentence seemed to be a joke on Li Hao, but in fact it means that Li Hao could almost be released.
Li Shimin was silent for a moment, as if he had remembered something, and asked, "Xu Lian, this Wu Ji was the girl he met in Jingzhou last time?"
"Go back to Your Majesty, yes." Xu Lian bowed.
Li Shimin asked again: "Whose girl is this Wu Zi? How long is the year?"
Xu Lian replied: "It is the daughter of Duke Ying Guoshu. It's thirteen this year."
"Oh..." Li Shimin nodded thoughtfully and asked again, "Is this woman really as 'being proud of her extraordinary colors and relied on her charming posture' as Li Hao said in her poem?"
Xu Lian said: "When you come back to your Majesty, according to the spy's reward, if you talk about beauty, she can only be considered a top-notch posture. However, this woman is charming, her eyes are like waves, and she can capture people's souls, which is definitely not comparable to an ordinary beauty."
"Is that right?" Li Shimin became even more curious when he heard this, frowned and thought for a while, and murmured, "If you give this woman marriage to Li Hao..."
If Li Hao heard this, he would definitely feel that the five thunders were thundering, but Xu Lian didn't think there was anything wrong. He just kindly reminded Li Shimin: "Your Majesty, you have given Li Hao a marriage."
"Oh, I almost forgot." Li Shimin nodded when he heard this. The emperor's marriage is an honor and should not be repeated.
At this time, a Jinwu Guard came to the door and knelt down and sang: "I will tell you to your Majesty, King Li Daozong of Jiangxia is asking for a visit!"
"Xuan!" Li Shimin didn't think about it, so he came in because he sent someone to spread Li Daozong.
Li Daozong quickly walked into Ganlu Hall, knelt down the mountain in the hall and shouted: "Long live my uncle Li Daozong's greetings."
"Please calm down, King Jiangxia." Li Shimin tried his best to show an approachable attitude and asked with a smile, "Chengfan, I have summoned you this time to ask you, are you ready for this talent show?"
Li Daozong nodded and replied: "Report to Your Majesty, everything is ready. The beautiful girl is arranged by the Ministry of Revenue and is on the way to Chang'an."
"Oh..." Li Shimin raised his eyebrows and asked, "Nothing will happen, right?"
Li Daozong's face suddenly changed, and he remembered the note Li Hao handed him to him.
In fact, when he went to the prison to see Li Hao, Li Hao secretly stuffed a note into his boots. After he returned home, he discovered that it was opened and it read: "Reply to the emperor according to facts."
At first he didn't understand, but now when he heard Li Shimin's words, he immediately understood that the matter of seeing Li Hao had already fallen into Li Shimin's eyes, so he bowed and said, "Your Majesty, there will be no trouble, but I have something to report. This morning, Li Hao asked me to go to prison to see him. After meeting him, he asked me for someone."
"Let me guess." Li Shimin asked with a smile, "Is this person a woman living in Jingzhou and surnamed Wu?"
Li Daozong was frightened when he heard this. It seemed that Li Shimin had indeed sent someone to monitor Li Hao. Fortunately, Li Hao stuffed the note in his boots. Otherwise, if he lied to the palace today, Li Shimin would definitely keep a account for him, and the consequences would be unimaginable. So he answered truthfully: "Your Majesty, Li Hao asked this person. He asked Weichen whether there was such a person on the list of beautiful women. Weichen answered no."
Li Shimin raised his eyebrows and asked slowly: "In fact, is there or not on the list?"
"Yes!" Li Daozong nodded and said, "Wu Wei Zi, the daughter of the former governor of Jingzhou, the Wu Shi."
If Li Hao was present, he would probably have to greet Li Daozong's ancestors for the 18th generation. This guy actually deceived him, causing him to write poetry and plan. If he didn't do it well, he would still make a mistake.
Li Shimin frowned when he heard this, and his face gradually became ugly. For some reason, he suddenly became a little angry, not angry with Li Daozong, but angry with Li Hao. Why? To be honest, he himself didn't know why.
In fact, the reason is very simple, because since Wu Wei has entered the talent list, it is the emperor's woman. Li Hao is thinking about him, the woman of the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty. Can he be happy?
As the Tian Khan who is dominant in the world, Li Shimin has an occupational disease that emperors have always had. In Guanzhong dialect, it is: "Occasionally! Occasionally! All are all!" That's right, he is the world. Qin Shihuang was like this back then, and Li Shimin is still like this now. This is the emperor!
Li Daozong kept secretly looking at Li Shimin. When he found that Li Shimin's face was wrong, he was shocked and secretly recalled whether he had said something wrong.
Li Shimin coughed lightly, waved his hand, and said, "Okay, Chengfan, you can retreat first."
"Yes, I'm leaving." Li Daozong withdrew from Ganlu Palace nervously, waved a cold sweat, and suddenly regretted the daytime lying to Li Hao. After all, although Li Hao had a bad attitude at that time, he even stuffed a small note to remind himself, which showed that Li Hao was still quite kind.
But he thought about it again. Whether it is age, identity or official position, he is too high for Li Hao. It is too embarrassing to ask him to apologize to Li Hao. Besides, it is not a big deal. As soon as he thought of this, he gave up the idea of apologizing.
After Li Daozong left, the Ganlu Palace was quiet for a long time, but Xu Lian said first: "Your Majesty, is it planned to release Li Hao?"
"When did I say I would let him go!" Li Shimin looked at Xu Lian with a treacherous face.
Xu Lian was so scared that he knelt down on the ground: "I'm going to die!" In fact, he was very curious about why Li Shimin suddenly changed his mind?
"Hmph!" Li Shimin snorted coldly, "This kid doesn't know the world is so strong, so let him stay in prison for a while."
Poor Li Hao was cheated by Li Daozong like this. In fact, we can't just blame Li Daozong. The main reason is that Li Hao has a problem with his questioning method. Is it okay for everyone to sit down and talk politely and calmly? He insists on fighting with a disagreement. Can such a proud person as Li Daozong be threatened by you?
As soon as Li Daozong returned to the mansion, the housekeeper came to report urgently. Miss Li Ping was gone. There was a wooden ladder beside the courtyard wall. It was obvious that he had climbed over the wall and secretly left.
Li Daozong was frightened and quickly sent all the troops and servants to find them. He also took a few followers to the street to search for them.
In Dali Temple, Li Hao was sitting in prison when he suddenly heard footsteps approaching. When he looked up, he saw the prison leader coming over with a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy. He approached and said, "Li Hao, someone has visited you, can you know me?"
Li Hao looked carefully and immediately got up and grinned: "Hey, stinky girl, why is it you?" The person who came was Li Ping disguised as a man.
Li Ping rolled his eyes and said, "Why can't it be me? I'll come and see how embarrassed you looked when you were in jail."
Li Hao smiled and said, "Everyone is so familiar, don't squeeze me."
Li Ping smiled sly, put down the food box in his hand, and said, "I brought you some food and bought it from your Taibailou."
"Is that so? I'm so mean, haha." Li Hao stretched out his hand out of the prison railing and opened the food box. A scent of the fragrance came to his nose. It turned out that they were all the dishes from Taibailou. Li Hao suddenly moved his index finger, and he picked up the chopsticks and ate them through the prison railing.
Li Ping turned his head and asked the prison chief: "Can you let me in?"
"This..." The prison chief looked at Li Hao in embarrassment. After all, Yao Shouzheng had explained that he should not let anyone enter Li Hao's cell at will. He must ensure Li Hao's safety.
Li Hao also knew these things and waved his hand and smiled, "It's okay, let her in, she is my wife."
When the prison chief heard this, he stopped hesitating and immediately took out the key and opened the door.
Li Ping blushed when he heard this, thinking that he took the opportunity to eat his tofu, and spat angrily: "The dog can't spit out ivory."
As soon as he finished speaking, the prison door opened, Li Ping walked in, the prison head locked the door again, and then walked away with tactfulness.
Li Ping came in and turned around and looked around Li Hao's cell, and said in surprise: "Why is your cell so clean, and there are beds, tables, chairs, toilets and other households?"
Li Hao shrugged and said, "I have a cleanliness obsessiveness. What are these things? I also had camel velvet carpets before."
Li Ping was surprised: "Why are you so comfortable when you go to jail?"
Li Hao smiled and said, "A handsome person will be treated with preferential treatment everywhere."
"Bah! I'm shameless." Li Ping rolled his eyes and spat, but was amused by Li Hao's smirk.
Li Hao placed all the wine and food in the food box on the table, rubbed his hands and said happily: "It's rare, there are wine, dishes and beauty, come, girl, have a few sips with me!" As he said that, he picked up the wine pot and poured two glasses of wine.
If it were before, Li Ping would have scolded him when he heard this, but for some reason, since she returned from the battle against Tuyuhun, she always thought about Li Hao, and had never had a gap in a day. She had been so anxious that she heard that Li Hao was imprisoned by the Emperor. Recently, she heard that Li Hao was imprisoned by the emperor and was imprisoned, so she could not help but sneaked out to see Li Hao while Li Daozong was out. So now even if Li Hao said such a bastard, frivolous word, she was not angry. She sat down opposite Li Hao, picked up the wine glass and prepared to drink.
"Wait a minute." Li Hao suddenly called her, then took the wine glass from her and said, "You are still young, you can't drink such strong wine, come and add some water." After that, he picked up the teapot on the table and mixed half of the water into her wine glass, and the wine glass was filled instantly.
"You guy..." Li Ping couldn't smile bitterly, "Who can drink and mix water?"
"Children cannot drink." Li Hao said seriously, "You are only thirteen years old this year, and you are a girl, even more..."
"What's wrong with the woman?" Li Ping pouted unhappily, "Do you look down on women?"
"How could it be!" Li Hao raised his eyebrows and glared with an innocent look on his face. "I have always believed that men and women are equal. I am not those old feudal."
"What is old feudalism?" Li Ping couldn't understand his words a little.
"Don't care about these details." Li Hao smiled and picked up the wine glass, "Come on, let's go!"
The two clinked glasses and drank a sip each. It was probably the first time Li Ping drank alcohol. He just took a sip and then stuck out his tongue and screamed, "It's so spicy, so bad."
Li Hao was happy: "It's still spicy after mixing the water. Now I know I'm doing it for you."
"You want to pretend to be kind." Li Ping was aroused by his words, picked up the wine glass and closed his eyes and took a sip. He held back the smell of wine in his mouth, and refused to show Li Hao a joke.
Li Hao didn't understand her little thoughts. After eating a few bites of food, he asked, "Why do you think of seeing me? Your father asked you to come?"
