In the mansion.
Thousands of Chang 'an citizens gathered outside the tightly shut mansion, blocking the street outside the mansion.
These curious people were all waiting for the moment Li Zhao left the residence so that they could get a close look at the legendary youth's elegant demeanor.
The legendary youth who had cultivated the golden wheat and had been invited out of the mountain by the three noblest fathers and sons of the Great Tang was becoming more and more legendary as word of mouth spread.
The gods descended, the martial star reincarnated, the literary star reborn…
All kinds of rumors caused the entire Chang 'an to be unable to calm down. Everyone wanted to see the god-like youth with their own eyes.
"The Crown Prince has arrived ~~"
"The King of Qin has arrived ~~"
A loud song rang out as two groups of men and horses protected two carriages. From the east and west of the main street, they squeezed through the crowded people and arrived in front of Li Zhao's residence.
On the carriage, Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin got off the carriage at almost the same time and walked up the steps at almost the same time.
When the two brothers saw each other, they frowned. They knew the purpose of the other party's visit, and a trace of imperceptible disgust flashed in their eyes.
"My little brother greets Your Highness."
Although Li Shimin's power was on par with Li Jiancheng's, he was both a minister and a brother in name. In front of the people, he still had to respect Li Jiancheng.
"What a coincidence. I didn't expect you to come too, second brother.”
Li Jiancheng said sarcastically.
Li Shi Min smiled faintly." I heard that Father has invited Li Lang out of the mountain. This man has made great contributions to the Great Tang and has shown kindness to the people. How can I not come and visit him?"”
"May I know why the Crown Prince has come? This official's younger brother remembers that back in Zhuzi Village, the Crown Prince and this Li Lang were not very happy.”
Li Shimin deliberately exposed Li Jiancheng's shortcomings.
At the mention of this matter, Li Jiancheng was filled with regret. He regretted that he had rushed to the Village of Zhuzi without asking about it clearly, and in the end, he had angered Li Zhao.
Now, he had to make up for his mistake that day and pull Li Zhao under the Eastern Palace.
"Bengong sees that Li Zhao is a young hero, as the saying goes, one cannot get to know each other without fighting. Bengong does not believe that he does not even have this bit of bearing.”
Li Jiancheng snorted and walked into the manor with his head held high.
Li Shi Min's lips curled into a cold smile as he followed behind.
These two brothers were the most respected and powerful people in the Great Tang below the Emperor. One after the other, they entered Li Zhao's manor.
The Chang 'an people gathered outside the door exploded again, and discussions broke out.
"Did you see that? That young genius just arrived, and the Crown Prince and the King of Qin actually came to visit at the same time. What kind of treatment is this?”
"The two of them are fighting for the position of the Crown Prince. This Li Lang is bound to become an important official in the court. It would be strange if they did not come to rope him in.”
"I wonder who this Li Lang is planning to join. Whichever side he stands on will probably win the battle for the throne.”
In the courtyard.
Li Zhaozheng looked up at the white clouds above his head.
The discussions of the commoners had never stopped. He still needed some time to adapt to this kind of life where everyone was watching.
"Brother Zhao, the Crown Prince and the King of Qin are here.”
Zhao Yu 'er's reminder sounded in his ears.
Li Zhao turned around and saw the two brothers walking into the courtyard side by side, neither willing to be half a step behind the other.
"So it's Your Highnesses. What a rare guest. Yu 'er, watch the tea.”
Li Zhao cupped his hands slightly, his attitude was quite polite.
Since he had decided to leave the mountain and become an official, he naturally had to follow the etiquette of the imperial court.
Moreover, Li Jiancheng and Li Shiming had taken the initiative to visit him. No matter what their purpose was, since they were polite, he naturally had to treat them with courtesy.
What followed was nothing more than some polite words, such as being pleasantly surprised by Li Zhao's return and how the Great Tang would not be far from prosperity with him.
Li Jiancheng had no choice but to put down his status as the Crown Prince. He apologized for the offense his subordinates had done to Li Zhao in the Village of Zhuzi, hoping that Li Zhao would not take it to heart.
Although Li Zhao was clear about gratitude and resentment, he was also not a calculative person.
Xue Wanche was crippled by him that day, which was already a sign of respect for Li Jiancheng. If Li Jiancheng hadn't mentioned it, he wouldn't have remembered this matter.
Li Jiancheng didn't expect Li Zhao to be so magnanimous and secretly heaved a sigh of relief. He immediately wanted to rope Li Zhao into his Eastern Palace.
Li Shi Min was also prepared to throw out an olive branch and rope Li Zhao into his Heavenly Strategy General Manor.
However, these two brothers were worried about the other party's presence, so it was not good for them to speak directly. They were both pondering how to find a private occasion to speak to Li Zhao.
Li Zhao calmly sipped on his wheat tea. Looking at the performance of these two brothers, his sharp eyes had long seen through their thoughts.
Bang ~
Li Zhao put down his teacup and said coldly," I understand what Your Highnesses are thinking. You don't have to waste your time. I can tell you clearly that I, Li Zhao, will neither enter the Eastern Palace nor serve King Qin's Mansion.”
"I, Li Zhao, have left the mountain today for the Great Tang!”
