Chapter 244: Chengqian Chengqian runs fast (Part 2)
"Danger, stop me." The old man's voice roared.
"If you don't hit me, I'll stand there." Li Chengqian, who was running and panting, shouted intermittently.
"Second brother, second brother, what are you doing!" This was Changsun's voice.
"What are you doing? I want to break the legs of this bastard." Li Er seemed to have been stopped by Changsun. After all, Changsun is now erect, and Lao Li can't struggle too much.
"Father, you didn't tell me, can you blame me for this?" Old Li didn't chase him, and Li Chengqian naturally stopped running away. He leaned his hands on his legs and almost vomited his tongue out in panting.
"I don't blame you, that's it. I'm going to blame me? You guy dare to say it again." Li Er glared at him and wanted to chase him. Li Chengqian was so scared that he ran a few more steps.
"Second brother, what are you two making trouble?" Changsun pulled Li Er, pulled him to the chair and sat down, and asked in confusion.
"When he was offering sacrifices to heaven, he cheated his superiors and concealed his subordinates..." Old Li was still angry and said inconspicuously.
"I don't have a few mature locusts, it's not a big deal. Besides, it's not raining!" Li Chengqian argued.
"I ate raw~~!" Taking advantage of Changsun's inattention, Li Er exploded again, jumped up from the chair in anger and went to chase Li Chengqian.
"My mother, help me, my father is going to kill me." After the ghost screamed, Li Chengqian ran wildly, asking Empress Changsun for help while running.
"It's useless if the Emperor comes today." Li Er shouted angrily.
How could this little bastard be so annoying that he actually roasted the locusts and put them in his pocket. He didn't even tell me about deceiving the crowd of people who were like me, even he was deceived by him.
Li Chengqian's locusts were roasted on the right heat, and it was no different from living when he held them in his hand. If it weren't for his poor hands and continued to take them out of his pocket and eating them later, Li Er would definitely not have discovered it.
But it's too late to say anything now, Li Er has decided to beat this cheating guy to death.
There is such a good way, but I didn't tell you in advance. Will you die if you take it out earlier? Do you really think that the locust is delicious? Thinking about the feeling of locusts jumping around in their mouths and biting them all over their mouths, Li Er wants to vomit now.
"Father, I'm not yet an adult, and I'm under my mother's care." Li Chengqian circled around the table, with a firm stand and never let Old Li catch him.
"Fuck you, you are the prince, and I will be disciplined." Li Er said, glaring at Li Chengqian.
It was over, and he glanced over his mother who was chuckling with her mouth. Li Chengqian felt depressed and knew that if no miracle had happened, the beating would be a sure thing.
At this moment, the door of the room was gently pushed open by the guards. When the guards came in, they didn't even dare to raise their heads. They lowered their heads and said, "Your Majesty, Master Yuan is looking for a meeting outside the hall, saying that there is something important to tell me."
"Let him wait a moment, I..." Old Li glanced at the guard and said lightly.
However, just as Li Er glanced at him, Li Chengqian took advantage of the old man's inattention and rushed out, shouting: "Father, my son is leaving."
The sound of the lingering sound surrounds the beam and does not dissipate for a long time. However, the person flashed past the guards, and plunged into the rain and fog in the sky under the shocked gaze. His behavior can be described as "running with his head and running away".
"Oh, wise, be careful." Empress Changsun did not expect that Li Chengqian was so 'hard' that he didn't even care about it's raining outside and dared to run out.
Li Er looked at the door of the room in shock, and murmured for a while: "This guy is so stupid, he will be distorted. Sooner or later, he will give his legs a discount."
"Please come in." Empress Changsun saw Lao Li in a daze, so she gave an order to the guards at the door.
Not long after, a Taoist priest who was about 40 years old, holding an oil-paper umbrella in his hand, walked in from outside: "My minister Yuan Tiangang, I have seen His Majesty, the Empress."
"Don't give me a gift, I'm calm. I wonder what Yuan Aiqing has to do, why is he so urgent?" Li Er asked the guards to bring a chair for Old Yuan and asked Wen Yan.
"Your Majesty Qi allowed me to go out of the capital with Wei Zheng and inspect the pass." Yuan Tiangang said bluntly.
"Oh, why is this?" Li Er asked curiously.
"Your Majesty, I am a Taoist person. I am talking about saving the world and saving people. This locust plague has spread to dozens of prefectures and prefectures. I want to do my best." Yuan Tiangang looked solemn. After saying that, he stood up from the chair and bowed his body to the court: "I hope your Majesty will be right."
"Well, just go there. This trip is indeed useful to get your place." Li Er nodded and approved Yuan Tiangang's request.
Yuan Tiangang was not well-known, but his reputation was high. It would be much easier to follow Wei Zheng’s inspection work. After all, the people of the Tang Dynasty still admired this Taoist celebrity very much.
Then, Lao Yuan talked to Li Er and his wife about astronomy, calendar and other things. When the time was almost over, he stood up and said goodbye.
In ancient times, seeing an emperor was a trouble. He left after he said something, showing disrespect. He talked endlessly and showed ungratefulness, which was difficult to grasp. However, this problem did not exist in Lao Yuan, who was proficient in appearance. This old man’s ability to check words and demeanor is not comparable to ordinary people.
At the same time, Li Chengqian in the "Lanruo Temple" was listening to Ma Zhou's analysis frowningly, and he vaguely understood why he was beaten today.
As a bystander, Ma Zhou's analysis made Li Chengqian feel very reasonable.
Overall, the biggest mistake today is still the locusts, but it is not the difference between growing and ripe locusts, but the fact that Li Chengqian should not join in the fun at all.
Locusts can indeed be eaten, but not everyone can eat them.
Li Chengqian thought that the old man should eat it himself, but the reality is that Li Er ate locusts to buy the people's hearts, and not everyone can do it.
In other words, no one in the entire Tang Dynasty can do it except Lao Li, unless he wants to rebel. From this point of view, it can be seen that Li Chengqian was chased by the old man and beaten up by the butt today, and it was the result of the old man showing mercy.
"Forget it, don't talk about those." After doing it, Li Chengqian didn't want to regret it anymore. He waved his hand to interrupt Zhou Ma, and changed the topic and said: "How is your water mark measurement going? Are there any difficulties?
Li Chengqian didn't want to listen, so Ma Zhou naturally wouldn't be tempted. Anyway, everyone is a white man, so it's better to just click as soon as possible. If you talk too much, you will get annoying.
So Li Chengqian changed the topic, and Ma Zhou naturally said: "The surrounding area of Chang'an is almost the same. Several places that need to be silted have been found. Now the ones that are missing are the manpower."
"Then continue to advance to the south, don't think about anything to go hand in hand in hand. You can prepare the drawings first, and you can follow the map when the construction starts." I was satisfied with Ma Zhou's work efficiency, but Li Chengqian was still urging him to speed up.
After all, time doesn’t wait for anyone. If the autumn harvest is on the day of the day, if no food is transported, it will be truly dead.
