Chapter 46: Li Ke's Visit

The next day, in the evening, Bohai County Prince's Mansion.

Li Fengci is addicted to alcohol and has not been drinking for more than ten years. Anyone who has been out of the day will feel uncomfortable and depressed. As early as yesterday, the day before Li Ke was about to come, Li Fengci was stared at by Li Changsha and was not allowed to drink. He had been greedy for a whole day.

On this day, since the morning of the morning, Li Fengci has been looking forward to Li Ke coming to Bohai County Prince's Mansion early and visiting him back so that he can have a good drink and relieve the greed in his stomach. But I don't know whether Li Ke did it on purpose or something, but he didn't come for a day. It was not until the evening that he sent a visitation letter and came to the house.

Outside the Bohai County Prince's Mansion, Li Changsha received a letter from the Grand Governor's Mansion and left the mansion to welcome him, waiting for Li Ke to pay homage to the mansion at the door of the mansion.

"I first arrived in Bingzhou, but because I had many military affairs were not in charge, I was unable to visit the door in time and drag it until the evening. I hope my cousin will not blame me." Li Ke led a group of guards to the outside of the county prince's mansion, and saw Li Changsha waiting outside the mansion and bowed.

Li Changsha hurriedly bowed and replied: "The Grand Governor was ordered to supervise the border and patrol Hedong. He should put military affairs first and then have personal relationships. Our cousins ​​are not outsiders, so why are they so polite?"

Li Ke smiled and said, "That's right."

Li Changsha raised his hand and said to Li Ke: "The wind outside the mansion is strong, and the Grand Governor is also asking for a rest in the mansion. My father is already waiting in the mansion."

Li Ke said: "I dare not wait for Uncle Father for a long time, so I ask my cousin to guide him."

As he said that, Li Ke followed Li Changsha into the Bohai County Prince's Mansion.

Li Ke came here to visit Li Fengci, the uncle. After Li Ke entered the county prince's mansion, he went straight to the inner courtyard where Li Fengci was resting.

After Li Ke entered the inner room of the inner courtyard, he looked up and saw a middle-aged man in his forties. The man Li Ke also looked at him and was leaning against the edge of the bed. Naturally, this person became Li Fengci, the prince of Bohai County who was "ill in the house".

Li Fengci's face was a little pale and was in a low spirit. He really looked like a patient, but I don't know if it was because of the greed of alcohol or pretending to behave.

"Nephew Li Ke, pay homage to uncle." Li Ke walked to Li Fengci's bed and bowed his hand.

"The tiger's head is here." Seeing this, Li Fengci looked like he was inconvenient to his legs and feet. He gently lifted the quilt and struggled to get up and return the gift.

Li Ke couldn't help feeling funny when he looked at Li Fengci's behavior, but he still held back his smile and quickly reached out to block Li Fengci and said, "Uncle is seriously troubled, and he is an elder, so there is no need to be too polite."

When Li Fengci heard this, he lay down again and leaned against the bed.

"I remember the last time I met you in Chang'an, you were still a child with a braid of the horns. Now when I see you again, I am a handsome young man and the governor in charge." Li Fengci looked at Li Ke and spoke first.

Li Ke sat on the brocade stool in front of the bed, looked at Li Fengci, and asked, "Before my nephew left Beijing, he heard his father mention his uncle. The father said that his uncle was healthy and had always had few patients, so why did it suddenly happen?"

Li Fengci sighed lightly, and replied to Li Ke in a hoarse voice: "Hey, I don't know anything about the tiger's head. In fact, my patient has been born for a long time. It's just that I'm in Jinyang and Your Majesty is in Chang'an. It's a long time ago. I don't want Your Majesty to worry, so I didn't tell you. In the past, I didn't realize anything, but this year, I suddenly became heavier again and couldn't get out of bed."

After Li Fengci said that, Li Ke's face was showing a bit of Qi Xuan, and said, "Although our Li family has a place to live, due to the government, the father, son, uncle and uncle are not allowed to gather often. It's really a pity that my uncle is seriously ill and my nephew, as a junior, failed to greet him in time. It's really shameful."

When Li Fengci heard this, he replied with a serious expression: "It's okay, since our Li family has the world, we should seek welfare for the people of the world. How can we be greedy for personal feelings and ignore the entrusted by the people of the world?"

Li Ke said: "What my uncle said is so true, and my nephew is ashamed. Fortunately, my nephew is now ordered to visit Hedong and stay in Jinyang, so I can meet my uncle often."

When Li Fengci heard Li Ke's words, he seemed to have the intention of visiting him in the mansion often in the future. He suddenly panicked. If Li Ke came to see him every day, how could he drink and have fun? Wouldn't the hundreds of concubines in his mansion have no way to endure it?

Li Fengci hurriedly said: "Since Hutou came here under the order, border affairs were the priority at that time. How could he depose the public for personal gain? I have Changsha to take care of my uncle, so you don't have to worry. You should do it well and do not let your Majesty down."

Li Ke said: "Don't worry about this uncle, my nephew has made arrangements long ago."

After Li Ke finished speaking, he ordered Wang Xuance who was following him, "Sir, from tomorrow, you will need to send someone to the county prince's mansion to visit your uncle every morning and inform me of your uncle's situation. You can't help it for a day. Do you understand?"

"No." As soon as Li Ke's words came out, Wang Xuance understood what Li Ke meant and immediately responded.

Li Fengci was lying on the bed. Listening to Li Ke's words, he suddenly became anxious, and even his eyes, which were originally distracted, had a little more spirit.

If Li Ke sent someone to the mansion to visit Li Fengci every day, how could Li Fengci get drunk and sing and have fun every night? I'm afraid even going out of the mansion will be a luxury.

Li Fengci hurriedly said to Li Ke: "There is no need to bother the people in the mansion like this. My body is very clear. There will be no major problems for a while, so I can rest for a long time."

Li Ke waved his hand with a serious look on his face and said, "Hey, no, my uncle is ill, how dare I be negligent? Not only do I have to send someone to visit my uncle every day, but I also have to order someone to come to Beijing to report this matter to my father, and ask the Imperial Physician's Office to send the Imperial Physician here to treat my uncle. My uncle is 40 years old, not as good as when he was a young man, but I must not be careless. If my uncle really has something unexpected, my father should blame me for not taking good care of him."

Li Fengci was just talking first, and Li Ke said this to this point. Li Fengci was extremely refusing and had to respond first and wait for another problem in the future.

There was a hint of bitterness in Li Fengci's words, and he replied to Li Ke: "If the tiger head is in love, then it will be hard."

"That's what it should be." Li Ke held Li Fengci's hand and said with a smile.

Li Ke stayed in Bohai County Prince's Mansion for a while, and looked at the sky outside, which was a little darker than when Li Ke first left the mansion. So Li Ke stood up and said to Li Fengci and Li Changsha: "Uncle, cousin, it's getting late, so I won't disturb my uncle's rest here, so I will say goodbye first."

Li Fengci was "bed ill in bed", so he was naturally inconvenient to see him off. Li Fengci said, "Changsha, I will send a tiger's head for my father."

"That's natural." Li Changsha responded and wanted to send Li Ke out.

Li Ke walked out of the house and was about to step out when he suddenly remembered something again and said to Li Changsha: "By the way, cousin, before leaving Chang'an, my father gave me a few jars of fine wine from the palace in the Sui Dynasty. It has been stored for decades. It is because the wine does not open a jar and the fragrance comes from it. It is the most mellow. Another day, you will come to the Grand Governor's Mansion to find me, and you and my brothers open a jar and drink it."

Li Ke said that Li Changsha was not good at drinking, but Li Fengci, who was addicted to alcohol, was already thorny and itchy. Only then did Li Fengci remember that his nephew also had the name of drinking, and he could not get drunk a thousand times.

Li Ke is the prince. Before Li Ke left, Li Shimin gave wine to Li Ke. It was reasonable. If you think about it carefully, what Li Ke said was not false. Moreover, Li Ke was extremely favored by Li Shimin. The wine given to him by Li Shimin was naturally not ordinary, and it must be a rare fine wine.

Li Fengci thought, and felt that the saliva in his mouth was about to flow down the corner of his mouth. He wanted to get up immediately, so he followed Li Ke to the Grand Governor's Office. The two of them drank the cups and drank them happily.
