Although the second prince is only thirteen years old, he already looks like a very handsome young man, and a layer of fine fluff has emerged from under his nose, and between his eyebrows, he looks like His Majesty, faintly, and there seems to be a bit of a cold shadow, but if you look closely, you can't see where he looks particularly similar to Shen Leng, so this feeling is a bit mysterious.

The thirteen-year-old boy was already much taller than the old dean, perhaps because the old dean was so old that he couldn't straighten his waist, far from being as straight as when he was young, and even ten years ago, his waist was not so bent.

His Majesty cut white tofu for the old dean, and the second prince poured wine for the old dean.

In the Mao Zhai, it really looks like three generations of grandchildren.

But it's just like, even the old dean can only think about it secretly and be secretly satisfied.

"Master."

The second prince pondered for a while and chose this title, this title obviously made the old dean a little relieved and a little frightened, but the emperor was only pleased, the second prince is more and more like him when he was young, thinking is not the same as ordinary people, if it is normal, no matter how the old dean is not the same identity, he is also a minister, if he chooses an honorific title, it is enough to call a master, but he called a master.

The old dean's eyes were slightly wet when Master Tai called, nodded with a smile, and leaned over slightly: "Your Highness." ”

"Sir, don't be so polite to him."

The emperor put the white tofu into the copper pot for the old dean: "Family, just call him Changye." ”

"Master Tai, if you see outside, call me Your Highness."

The second prince smiled, picked up the wine glass and sniffed: "Father, can the sons and daughters drink?" ”

"You?"

The emperor glanced at him and thought for a moment: "You can drink a little." ”

Although the second prince has not yet reached the age of the hair bundle, but he has already tied his hair last year, he is already a lot taller and stronger than ordinary twelve or thirteen-year-old children, and no one doubts that he is sixteen or seventeen years old, he has experienced in the Liuyun Society, the emperor asked him to go to the Liuyun Club to experience the people's livelihood, he was worried that others would see that he was young so he tied his hair in advance, and the emperor did not say anything.

"Actually, you can't drink it."

The second prince's face flushed slightly: "Teacher...... An Guogong once said that I could only drink openly when I was sixteen years old, and if he knew that I was greedy for alcohol now, he would not teach me the art of war and martial arts. ”

A sentence from the master almost blurted out, but fortunately, he held it back.

The emperor naturally knew that he called Shen Leng like this, and he had already said that it was inappropriate to call him like this, but he couldn't explain anything to the second prince, and the second prince only felt that Shen Leng taught him the art of war and martial arts and taught him to be a man, so it is not an exaggeration to call him a master, and the second prince also debated when the emperor talked to him last time, and said that the ancient sage said that there must be my teacher in the threesome, and An Guogong taught the profession, so of course the sons should be called masters.

This kind of thing, the emperor can't stop it strongly, so he let the second prince call it down.

"Just drink a little."

The emperor said: "How can you be greedy for a cup at such a young age?" Just drink a little with your master and me. ”

The second prince immediately laughed: "It's better to be my father, I saw my relatives last time...... Seeing An Guogong drinking, Erchen asked him to share some, but he just refused, and then he went to the toilet and put the wine jug aside, and Erchen secretly tasted it. ”

The emperor smiled and asked, "Have you finished tasting it?" ”

"It's nothing, it's just spicier than water."

The second prince raised his glass: "Respect to my father, respect to my master." ”

The emperor and the old dean both raised their wine glasses, and the three of them drank together, the emperor and the old dean both sipped their glasses, and the second prince grunted a glass of wine, and the emperor took a look, and the old dean also shook it.

"Uh......"

The second prince hurriedly said: "It's the retainers who are presumptuous." ”

It's not good to have an empty wine glass, otherwise how to accompany the wine? So after obtaining the emperor's consent, the second prince poured himself another glass of wine, and this time it was the emperor's turn to raise his glass, looked at the old dean and said: "Mr. dedicates his life to Daning, I never know how to thank Mr. Xi, this glass of wine I respect you." ”

The second prince hurriedly picked up the wine glass: "The son accompanies his father, Mr. Jingtai." ”

This kind of etiquette is all a sip, and the second prince cooed

A glass of wine dried up again.

The Emperor's eyes widened, and the old dean narrowed his eyes and smiled.

"The minister seems to have seen His Majesty when he was young, at that time, His Majesty did not go to the minister's house to steal wine and drink, His Majesty entered the academy at the age of ten, left the academy at the age of sixteen, and began to steal the minister's wine from the age of twelve, and in four years, the minister's wine himself was not enough to drink."

The Emperor laughed: "That's me, how can he compare with me?" ”

He glanced at the second prince: "I don't know the etiquette, don't finish drinking next time, otherwise I'll go back to sleep." ”

"The son knows his mistake."

The second prince smashed it, smashed it, and said in his heart, where is this? Last time he and Shen Leng went out shopping, and made a bet with Shen Leng, Shen Leng said that if he could run wild on the street without bumping into anyone, and run to the specified place within the specified time, he would be allowed to drink a little, the second prince used a little faster than Shen Leng estimated, Shen Leng had no choice, the promised thing had to be done, so the two of them ordered a few dishes in the restaurant, and Shen Leng only allowed him to drink a little, but while drinking and drinking, the two of them hugged their shoulders and bragged, two people, drank more than 20 pots of wine in one go, The wine pot in the restaurant is small, half a catty of wine per pot, but it is also more than ten catties of wine.

Concubine Zhen didn't allow him to drink, and if he didn't drink in the palace, he wouldn't be hungry, but now that he drank it, if he only drank two glasses, of course it wouldn't be enjoyable.

"Father, this cup of wine is not a cup of wine that is greedy for a courtier, but must be honored by Mr. Tai."

The second prince stood up: "Mr. Jing Tai has taught countless important ministers in Daning, Daning has a solid foundation, and Mr. Tai has contributed a lot. ”

The emperor thought about it and should pay respect.

So the grunt went down again.

The old dean sighed: "Alas......"

The second prince was curious: "Why is Mr. Tai sighing?" ”

The old dean said: "It's good to learn from Shen Leng in the future, don't learn the bad ones......"

The Emperor burst out laughing.

"An Guogong is in Western Xinjiang."

The second prince asked tentatively; "Erchen also wants to go to the Western Xinjiang to see, Erchen has not seen the real battlefield, his father has already led troops to kill the enemy at the age of sixteen, but Erchen is thirteen years old and does not know what the battlefield looks like."

"I don't know when I'm thirteen, I can't go."

"Father, my sons are just going to take a look."

"You can't look at it."

The emperor pointed to the old dean's wine glass: "Full of wine." ”

The second prince hurriedly stood up and filled the wine for the old dean: "Mr. Tai, you help me plead for mercy." ”

The old dean shook his head: "You can't plead, even Shen Leng won't agree to let you go to the battlefield at this age." ”

"I can't stop me from going because I'm young."

The second prince looked at the emperor: "The son asks my father to allow another glass of wine." ”

The emperor's eyes narrowed slightly: "What do you want to do?" ”

The second prince smiled: "It's only one cup." ”

The Emperor nodded: "Just one cup." ”

The second prince took the wine glass and drank it all: "An Guogong said, after drinking wine and bragging, he is only energetic......"

As soon as the second prince's words came out, the emperor and the old dean were stunned, the two of them glanced at each other, and then looked at the second prince, and at the same time thought that in the future, Shen Leng really couldn't let Shen Leng talk nonsense in front of the second prince.

The second prince left his seat, strode to the side, he took off the emperor's hard bow from the wall, held the bow with his left hand and pulled the string with his right hand, and opened the full moon publicly, twenty times in a row, it seemed that his face was not red and he was not panting, he put down the bow, strode to the door and looked at Wei Lan who was guarding there, smiled and said: "Lord Wei, help me find a horizontal knife." ”

Wei Lan hurriedly looked at the emperor, the emperor nodded, Wei Lan ran out, and after a while, he brought a Daning horizontal knife and handed it to the second prince, who pulled out the knife and broke it with a bang.

The old dean lowered his voice and said, "I really have to let the second prince stay away from Shen Leng......"

The emperor nodded: "Well, I also think that the knife is broken...... He actually learned Shen Leng to break the knife. ”

The second prince handed the broken knife to Wei Lan and strode back: "Father, Mr. Tai, can I go to Western Xinjiang?" I don't go to war, only in the city

Look at the wall from a safe place, if it is...... If so......"

He glanced at the emperor: "If the retainer is disobedient, then punish An Guogong." ”

The emperor let out a long breath, looked at the old dean, and said, "I didn't expect that he would have such a skill. ”

The second prince said in his heart that I still have a lot of skills, such as a trick I learned from my master to control the enemy's crotch style, such as an arrow that I learned from my master to hit a copper coin hole, such as learning from my master to look at a map is not like seeing mountains and rivers.

He thought that this was all learned from Shen Leng, but except for the first one-move to control the enemy's crotch kick, it didn't have much to do with Shen Leng, even if Shen Leng didn't teach him, he could do it by studying hard by himself, and it was a talent.

"Your Majesty actually wants the second prince to take a look."

The old dean said: "Otherwise, I won't let the second prince come over to toast the old minister, Your Majesty said, yesterday scolded Lai Cheng for no reason, in order to let Lai Cheng solve the difficult matter of Li Tu's life, Your Majesty asked the second prince to come over to toast the old minister today, not to let the old minister take the blame for His Majesty, if Concubine Zhen blamed her, Your Majesty only said that the old minister tried his best to persuade His Majesty to be confused for a while......"

The emperor smiled wryly: "The tofu is ready." ”

He looked at the second prince: "You go back first, I will think about it again, tomorrow I will give you a letter of approval, whether you are allowed to go or not, I will give you a letter of approval." ”

The second prince hurriedly bowed over: "Thank you, father." ”

He bowed to the old dean again, then pinched a peanut from the table to eat, and walked away with a smile, it stands to reason that he should be more polite, but the emperor likes him to show his temperament like this, rather than pretending to be like the prince.

"Your Majesty."

The old dean glanced at the emperor: "Why do you have to let the second prince leave Chang'an?" ”

The emperor raised the wine glass and signaled, the old dean hurriedly picked up the wine glass, the wine glasses of the two people touched in mid-air, the emperor put the wine in the cup into his mouth, and then pinched three peanuts.

"Mr. said back then, it is most appropriate to eat three peanuts in one sip of wine, the taste of the wine is not dispersed, and the taste of peanuts is very strong, I have always remembered that it is not three peanuts in one sip of wine but the most suitable three words."

The emperor glanced at the old dean: "I, I don't want him to see me beating the prince." ”

The old dean's heart tightened.

"Cao Anqing's matter, I can't always pretend to forget."

The emperor looked at the old dean: "After the war in the Western Xinjiang, I plan to go to Taishan, and I have been saying that I have not been able to make the trip, I just said to Mr. that I will release it in advance after the establishment, I have actually thought about it a long time ago, and it is the limit after the war in the Western Xinjiang, no matter whether Concubine Zhen agrees or not, I will crown her as the Empress of Daning on the top of Taishan, but Mr. ......"

The emperor took another sip of wine: "If Concubine Zhen is the queen, the prince will inevitably be dissatisfied, he will be dissatisfied, he will do something out of the ordinary, I can open one eye and close one eye, but I can't close both eyes, before Mount Tai sealed Zen, I have to give myself an explanation, to the ancestors and ancestors." ”

The old dean's hand shook, barely holding the wine glass in his hand.

"I've given him too many opportunities."

The emperor looked at the old dean: "However, yesterday Han Zhaozhi found out something again......

He paused and didn't continue.

The old dean didn't dare to ask, and he could probably guess if he didn't ask.

If the crown prince does not touch the military power, the emperor will not touch him.

The emperor poured the wine glass again: "Although Chang Ze has an extreme temperament, he has always been very good to Chang Ye, and I don't want Chang Ye to see his eldest brother embarrassed, nor do I want him to see his father embarrassed." ”

The second prince returned to Concubine Zhen's palace and sat there in a daze, Concubine Zhen came over and handed him a hot towel: "Are you begging your father to allow you to go to the Western Xinjiang again?" ”

The second prince smiled and said, "Well, yes, the son asked again, this time the father seems to be able to approve." ”

He raised his hand to wipe his face to hide the sadness in his eyes...... I want to go to Xijiang because my father doesn't want me to be in Chang'an during this time, the world is very big, but I only want to go to Xijiang because there is a brother there.
