Chapter 230
After a while, after several palace maids carefully dressed up, Li Shimin and Empress Changsun returned to their former dignity.
Li Shimin stood in front of the mirror and felt that he seemed to be much younger.
Looking at the side, Empress Changsun had also finished dressing up and nodded with satisfaction.
"Boy, follow me to Taiji Palace!"
"Okay, Your Majesty!" Su Chen nodded and stood up to answer.
"Erlang, this trip to Taiji Palace must have important matters to discuss with the ministers, so I and Li Zhi will not go."
Empress Changsun said to Li Shimin with a smile.
The two little guys showed a trace of frustration when they heard what Empress Changsun said, which meant that they could not go to Taiji Palace with Su Chen.
Li Shimin thought for a while and waved his hand and said, "Guanyin, it's okay to go together!"
"Your Majesty, I will obey you." Empress Changsun said with a slight bow.
Li Shimin glanced at the two little guys and wanted to let them play somewhere else.
Little Li Zhi looked at Li Shimin with pleading eyes.
Li Shimin showed a faint smile on his face.
"Let's go, take the remaining watermelon with you."
Based on the principle of not wasting, there should be eight people in Taiji Palace, excluding Du Ruhui.
That half watermelon should not be enough to eat.
"Father, there is still one frozen watermelon." Princess Changle reminded in a low voice.
"Oh? Then send someone to deliver it to Taiji Palace."
After that, Li Shimin took the lead to walk out of the palace.
...
Taiji Palace.
Changsun Wuji and six others and Li Chengqian sat on both sides in the reception room.
Li Yuan lay on a recliner in the middle of the living room, reading a newspaper in his hand.
Li Chengqian brought a short stool and sat next to Li Yuan.
Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling and others sat upright, looking particularly cautious.
Li Yuan had previously "deeply hated" these old members of the Qin Palace.
In his heart, he always believed that it was these people who planned the war, which led to his sons fighting each other.
Even Wei Zheng was scolded by Li Yuan for being disloyal.
But later, the situation became better because of Su Chen's appearance.
"Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling, do I eat people or beat and scold you? Do you look down on me?"
Li Yuan saw Changsun Wuji and others, and scolded them unhappily with their restrained appearance.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me. I dare not have such intentions. I am just shocked by this watermelon, which is too sweet."
Changsun Wuji and others looked at each other, and finally Cheng Yaojin stood up and replied.
"Humph, then do you still want to eat this watermelon?"
Li Yuan snorted and pointed at the watermelon and asked.
They only ate a small part of the half watermelon that Li Chengqian brought from Lizheng Palace.
And most of it was eaten by Li Yuan and Crown Prince Li Chengqian. They were unable to let go and only tasted a small corner symbolically.
If Li Shimin dares to invite them to eat watermelon, you will see whether Cheng Yaojin will leave the watermelon rind for him.
"Your Majesty, enjoy it slowly. We have already tasted it. I think this watermelon is not an ordinary thing, it must be very precious."
Changsun Wuji bowed and answered respectfully.
'Why hasn't your father arrived yet? It's been an hour and a half.'
Li Chengqian looked at his watch furtively for the third time.
At this time, the seats of the people in Taiji Palace were quite unique.
"Great, I like this recliner very much. It's very comfortable to lie on. Do your father and mother have it?"
Li Yuan no longer paid attention to Changsun Wuji and others.
"It's good that Grandpa Huang likes it. Su Chen said that this recliner is simple to make and it is easy for craftsmen to imitate it."
Li Chengqian answered respectfully.
"That's great!" Li Yuan nodded slightly.
"Grandpa Emperor, Sizi is here to see you...!"
Just as Li Yuan was relaxing and planning to lie down and rest his eyes, the voice of little Sizi came from outside the palace.
Little Sizi is just like Princess Changle when she was a child, she can get along anywhere!
So lovable!
Li Yuan smiled widely, put down the newspaper in his hand and handed it to Li Chengqian, and stood up to sit up on the recliner.
The backrest of this recliner does not have a rebound function. Older people need to hold the armrests tightly to gain strength if they want to stand up on their own.
Li Chengqian saw this and hurriedly stood up to help.
"Grandpa Emperor... I'm here!"
Little Sizi 'led' Li Shimin and Empress Changsun to walk into the palace, followed by Su Chen and Princess Changle.
Changsun Wuji and others stood up to greet them.
Li Yuan looked at everyone and greeted them with a smile.
Li Shimin and others came to Li Yuan and were about to greet him.
"Grandpa Emperor..."
Little Sizi ran to Li Yuan and hugged his thigh.
Li Yuan gently stroked the back of Little Sizi's head, "Hey, my dear granddaughter, how come you have time today to come and see Grandpa Emperor?"
Little Sizi was a little embarrassed by Li Yuan's question. Usually every three or five days, Little Li Zhi would bring her to play with Li Yuan.
Yesterday, the two little guysI have just been to Taiji Palace.
The little guy dodged his eyes, stole a glance at Su Chen, and said to Li Yuan coquettishly:
"Sizi misses Grandpa...!"
"Oh? Wasn't little Sizi in Taiji Palace yesterday, accompanying Grandpa to dine?" Li Yuan looked at little Sizi and asked seriously.
"Grandpa... you remembered it wrong! Sizi hasn't been to Taiji Palace for a long time, and misses Grandpa."
Little Sizi was a little nervous when he saw that his lie was about to be exposed, and loosened his hands holding Li Yuan.
Li Yuan laughed at the words, "Okay, it was Grandpa who remembered it wrong." He picked up little Sizi and put him on his lap.
"Father, Sizi is not little anymore, you will be tired if you hold her."
Empress Changsun said with a smile.
Perhaps Li Yuan is old, or the depression of many years has dissipated, he now loves these grandchildren very much.
"Hahaha, no problem!"
In the past, Li Yuan only treated Empress Changsun and Princess Changle well, and was quite okay with Li Chengqian.
"Su boy, you are finally here! This recliner is very good, and I like it very much."
Immediately, Li Yuan looked at Su Chen and smiled.
"Old man, we just met not long ago, right? Just a few days!"
Su Chen smiled and teased.
"Yes, yes! Grandpa Huang, you remembered it wrong again!"
Little Sizi seized the opportunity and quickly made up for it!
He looked at Li Yuan very seriously and said.
"Hahaha..."
The little guy's performance immediately made everyone laugh.
"Your Majesty, Queen!"
In the interval, the ministers respectfully saluted Li Shimin and Empress Changsun.
"No need to be polite!"
This was the first time Li Shimin spoke since entering the hall.
"Grandpa Emperor!"
Princess Changle put aside a small box in her hand and went forward to greet Li Yuan.
"Lizhi, if you are not in a hurry to return to the manor, stay in Taiji Palace with Su Xiaozi and have lunch with me, an old man."
Princess Changle looked at Su Chen and asked for his opinion.
Receiving Princess Changle's eyes, Su Chen smiled and nodded without hesitation.
How could he refuse the old man's request!
"Okay, Grandpa Emperor!" Princess Changle agreed with a smile after Su Chen's approval.
"Hehe, Lizhi has grown up and become sensible!"
"Okay, okay!"
Seeing Changle's actions, Li Yuan nodded with great satisfaction and said two good words.
