Li Chu closed the door.

After returning to the room, looking at the hot food and dishes on the table, I don't know how to feel.

A bowl of white rice, a plate of braised mandarin fish in soy sauce, a plate of stir-fried pork shredded radish, and a plate of green and tender stir-fried sprouts.

They are all very common dishes, but after a taste, you will know that these are not meals that can be prepared by ordinary farmers, and must be the craftsmanship of the imperial chef.

Li Chu drank the porridge, ate the morning dishes, and picked out a few chopsticks to eat for nothing.Only then did I realize that I was still hungry.Sure enough, one cannot skip breakfast.

After eating the rice and six minutes of dishes, he put down his chopsticks.

Cleaned up the dishes.

I read for a while, digested food, and slept for a while.When I woke up, I continued to paint.

Until sunset, the room gradually became dark.Li Chucai took the things.He frowned when he thought that Zhao Chengcheng might still come back to mess around today.Taking advantage of Zhao Chengcheng's future, he planned to go out to avoid it.

If he knew that Zhao Chengcheng was coming and stayed in the room and did nothing, wouldn't he be no different from a turtle in a urn, and Zhao Chengcheng would catch it.

And as stupid as a rabbit hitting a tree.

He couldn't get out of the city gate a few days ago, and Zhao Chengcheng succeeded one after another. Now he thinks about it, he is very ashamed and angry.I just feel that Zhao Chengcheng has used everything to the extreme and humiliated him deeply.Playing tricks on him is like playing tricks on a young girl in a flower house singing an opera singer, embarrassing him.It was the word 'good' that shook his heart last night, which made him deliberately forget it.

Li Chu cleaned up the desk and washed his hands.Then went to the street.

Instead of walking on the main street, he went to the side street.The main street has the elegance and beauty of the main street, and the small street has the authenticity and livelyness of the small street.Although the crowd is crowded, it makes people feel relaxed.

There were many food vendors on the side of the road. Li Chu could not walk because of the smell of mutton soup. After weighing his purse, he sat down and asked the vendor to bring him a bowl of mutton vermicelli soup and put on two helmets.

He ate his mask slowly and drank the soup bit by bit.

Extraordinary delicacy in ordinary life.

Although what Li Chu ate was not delicacies from mountains and seas, what he ate was very much to his liking.Sure enough, everything that is forced in this world is bad.He thought so.

After eating his own dinner, he went to bookstores and shops selling brushes, paper, inkstones, and inkstones.He even thought about buying some high-quality muslin cloth and taking it back to the car of the escort company, and consigned it back to his hometown to his parents.

So I walked around carefully.

On the other side, as he expected, Zhao Chengcheng went to Li Chu's humble hut.

But it was empty.

He immediately knew that Li Chu was avoiding him like a snake.

Standing at the door in the cold for a long time, he asked someone to open the door, and then entered the room, and went straight to Li Chu's bedroom.Liu Quan wanted to follow him in and serve him tea and water, but Zhao Chengcheng slammed the door as soon as he entered, and Liu Quan's nose almost went off.Standing in fear outside the gatehouse.

The window of Li Chu's bedroom is very transparent. The gauze paper pasted on the window has relatively large pores and is a bit aged, so it is more transparent.The servants in the yard can see Zhao Chengcheng's figure, and if they have good eyesight, they can even see the side face clearly.Zhao Cheng sat upright on a three-legged round stool.For a while it was motionless.

The guards kept beating drums in their hearts.

They have been working with Zhao Chengcheng for many years. They dare not go west when they point east and west, and they are still neat in handling things. They are considered old people.I have never seen their gentle and kind master have such an uncertain time.

The rewards and punishments of his master's son are quite clear, and the red envelopes given to them during the festivals are also well thought out.To be honest, I have a lot of respect for Zhao Chengcheng.The only thing that went out of line was riding a horse in the street, but in the imperial city, it is not a big deal for dignitaries to ride a horse.What's more, their master and son have never trampled on anyone, or rubbed against other people's stalls.

now?When meeting Mr. Li, many things went out of line.Such things as bullying the talented son in the street, prostitution in the carriage during the day, and demolition of the concierge when the master is away are all done.But they didn't dare to say anything.I just feel that Mr. Li is like a melon made of diamond. No matter what kind of chisel you use, you can't chisel any cracks.Wouldn't everyone be happy to have followed their Highness King Yan early?

Usually at this time, they are off duty and go home to accompany their wives or drink flower wine, so there is no need to accompany His Royal Highness King Yan here.

And Li Chu went home with his things full of things when he walked around until only the flower building was still open.

When I got home, I almost didn't dare to recognize it, the door was torn down and put aside.The guards of King Yan's Mansion stood at his door with swords on their waists, and there were people standing in the courtyard.He just went out to hide from Zhao Chengcheng, but unexpectedly the doors were all demolished.This is no different from the mountain bandit or the water bully.Angrily, he went straight in, and put all his things on the small table under the eaves until Liu Quan was next to him, before reaching out and pushing the door.

He opened his mouth and said: "His Royal Highness Yan Wang is so majestic, he even demolished the door when he was not at home!"

Zhao Chengcheng looked cold, and he looked at him, "Where did you go?"

Li Chu was not afraid of him, "Where am I going to do your business? I'm not working in your Prince Yan's mansion, and I have legs growing on my body, so where can I not go?"

Zhao Chengcheng: "Where did you go at will? You are clearly avoiding me."

Li Chu: "You also know that I want to hide from you, so you should think about why you are not popular with others."

Zhao Chengcheng sneered, "I don't invite people to see you? I just don't invite you to see me. How dare other people not welcome me?"

Li Chu: "You also know how to say the word 'dare'."

The conversation inside, as if a firecracker was on fire, was heard clearly by the guards outside, and they could only cry out in their hearts.

Zhao Chengcheng laughed, "You're a scholar, I'm not a soldier, I can't say anything about you. Li Chu, if that's the case, don't blame me."

Seeing that his plain tone made people feel terrified, Li Chu couldn't help but take a step back and looked at him stubbornly, "What are you going to do?"

Zhao Chengcheng ordered: "Liu Quan."

Liu Quan bowed in response: "Your Highness."

"Go to Li County, Xunzhou, and take Li's parents to Yanwang Mansion. Some people like to stay out at night, so it must be because their parents didn't teach them well, so they should continue to discipline them."

Li Chu looked terrified, he was exhausted, his parents were old, and he didn't know if these people would treat his parents well, wouldn't it be if lynching was used... He immediately shouted: "How dare you!"

Zhao Chengcheng looked at him with a sneer, "You forced me. I can pamper and cling to you in everything, but you shouldn't be misbehaving. Liu Quan, go."

Liu Quan immediately went down and ordered someone to go on an errand.

Li Chu was in a state of panic. If something happened to his parents, he would be very unfilial.But asking him to bow his head and ask him to beg for mercy like Zhao Chengcheng is extremely difficult and humiliating.His eyes were red with anger, and he clenched his fists tightly.The gums are bleeding from the bite.

"No."

Zhao Chengcheng sat on the stool and asked coldly, "What did you say?"

Li Chu: "No." Tears welled up in the corners of his eyes.Sad to say it again.

Zhao Chengcheng heard it, but smiled lightly: "The voice is too low, I really can't hear it clearly."

Li Chu's lips trembled.The voice he said was probably heard by the guards outside, Zhao Chengcheng did it on purpose.His heart trembled, he lowered his head and clenched his fists, "I was wrong, I shouldn't hide from you today."

Zhao Chengcheng: "Is there any more?"

Li Chu gritted his teeth, and suddenly looked at Zhao Chengcheng, his eyes misty.But his eyes and expression are so stubborn.

"In the future, not in the future."

Zhao Chengcheng immediately smiled with satisfaction, and he stretched out his hand to beckon him. Li Chu stiffened his body, paused for a moment, and then walked over. With an arm's length away, Zhao Chengcheng immediately put him in his arms. .Sitting on his lap was very embarrassing for Li Chu, suffering from humiliation.

Zhao Chengcheng reached out to stroke his cheek, and then wiped away the teardrops from the corners of his eyes with his fingers.She bowed her head and kissed him for a moment, then put her arms around him and tapped the tip of his nose and said to him: "For the sake of being so obedient, I don't care about today's affairs with you."

Li Chu's body was still as stiff as a piece of wood.

He is a scholar, but now he is reduced to an actor.Rely on such skin (flesh) things to please this person.It was embarrassing.

He didn't forget the business, "Then my parents?"

Zhao Chengcheng laughed suddenly, "Since it's my father-in-law and mother-in-law, I'll ask the person who invites me to be respectful and respectful. I promise that the two elders will feel at ease all the way to the capital, just like traveling in the mountains and rivers, okay? "

Li Chu: "Didn't you promise me that you don't care about this matter?"

"I don't care about not returning home at night, but I can't ignore the matter of contradicting me. You set a precedent, and the people below will think that I am weak and can be bullied in the future, so they must not be dismissed."

Li Chu knew he did it on purpose!Definitely on purpose.

On the surface, he invited his parents to come over, but in fact, it was like a proton. Yan Wangfu controlled his parents, and indirectly controlled him.Zhao Chengcheng is mean by nature.

Zhao Chengcheng didn't have this idea at all, and said to him: "This time you will definitely go to high school in the imperial examination. If you don't have high school, I will make you an official."

"I don't need you to plan so hard. Whether I can pass the imperial examination depends entirely on my ability." As he spoke, he just pushed Zhao Chengcheng and stood up.It was a full two arms' distance away from Zhao Chengcheng.

Zhao Chengcheng didn't force him to sit on his lap, but he was already easy to talk on the surface, coaxing him with both inward and outward words, "Of course I won't treat you favoritism, I just let you be a clerk and practice in the Imperial Academy. After a few years, you will be promoted to manage the yamen and you will be a Beijing official. How about it?"

Li Chu: "No. I said no."

Zhao Chengcheng said with a smile: "Okay, okay, you are naturally capable of winning the exam. I don't need to do anything for you. When the father-in-law and mother-in-law arrive in the capital, one can take better care of you, and two, you can also be filial. It is a very sad thing for a son to take care of but not to be loved."
