Li Jiancheng's solicitous actions shocked everyone around him.
In order to see his younger brother, he did not even care about his shoes. This Prince Jin's attitude was indeed sincere.
Someone sighed in his heart.
Li Jiancheng's lips curled into a smug smile. He was obviously proud of his methods.
Others couldn't see it, but how could Li Xuanlie see that his brother was imitating Cao Cao?
During the Battle of Guandu, Cao Cao was in a difficult situation. When he heard that Yuan Shao's adviser Xu You had come to seek refuge, he was so happy that he did not even put on his shoes and rushed out to welcome him.
Li Jiancheng had also read a lot of history books. He was a person who understood the essence of the study of emperors. Naturally, he wanted to learn from Cao Cao to show that he valued him.
"Imperial brother is too polite. Men, quickly pick up imperial brother's boots.”
Li Xuanlie didn't expose him and played along with him.
The two brothers entered the hall and sat down.
As soon as Li Jiancheng sat down, he asked about his well-being. He was extremely concerned about him, just like an elder brother.
"Third brother, now that you have the title of minister and the position of the grand marshal of the army, it must be hard for you. I have specially given you a gift so that you can relax after being busy.”
Li Jiancheng said with a smile, then clapped his hands.
Then, six beautiful women walked into the hall and greeted King Reliance with shy smiles.
"What does Imperial Brother mean by this?"
Li Xuanlie pointed at the women and asked.
Li Jiancheng smiled and said," These beauties were carefully selected by me. All of them are good at singing and dancing. They are all top-notch goods. I specially gave them to you to relieve your boredom. Third Brother, don't dislike them."”
It turned out that Li Jiancheng wanted to send singers and dancers.
"Imperial brother's gift is truly unique." Li Xuanlie smiled faintly.”
"These beauties are not only good at singing and dancing, but they are also all virgins. Third brother, you are full of vigor and are not married yet. If you are interested, hehe…"
Li Jiancheng leaned over and whispered with a smile.
Li Xuanlie wasn't tempted and asked,"I heard that the nobles in Luoyang are most popular in raising foreign slaves as singers and dancers. Why are the beauties that my Imperial Brother gave me all Han girls?”
Li Jiancheng smiled and said," Although foreign slaves are good, they are not as obedient and lovely as the girls of our Tang Empire. There are many foreign slaves in my brother's residence, but in terms of beauty, the girls of our Han family are the best.”
"Then where did Imperial Brother get these beauties?”Li Xuanlie asked again.
Li Jiancheng said disapprovingly," They were sold from the homes of those poor commoners. Many of them were the family members of the guilty officials. They were all of lowly origins. Otherwise, how could they become dancers and singers?"”
Hearing this, Li Xuanlie's eyebrows furrowed.
After a moment of silence, he said,"Since Imperial Brother is so kind, then I will accept these beauties."”
"Good, as long as Third Brother likes it. You haven't seen your new master yet.”
Li Jiancheng shouted at the beauties.
These dancers hurriedly went forward and knelt down before Li Xuanlie, calling him "Master" in unison.
Li Xuanlie waved his hand to get them to stand up. He sized them up, but there was no trace of evil in his eyes.
With his keen eyes, he could naturally see that although these girls were smiling brightly on the surface, their smiles were forced against their will, just to please their masters.
Li Xuanlie waved his hand." From now on, I will abolish your slave status and restore your civilian status.”
The dancers 'beautiful faces changed as they looked at Li Xuanlie in surprise.
Li Jiancheng's expression also changed. His eyes were filled with surprise. He couldn't guess what his younger brother was trying to do.
"Since you are free, this king will not force you to stay. If you want to leave, you can go to the accountant's office to collect your money and leave on your own.”
"If you have nowhere to go and want to stay, do some chores in the residence. This king will pay you monthly.”
"As for dancing, singing, and flirting, this king doesn't need you to do it.”
All the dancers were stunned, and their beautiful faces were shocked. They thought they had heard wrongly.
They thought that if they sold themselves as slaves, they would be slaves for the rest of their lives to please their masters.
They hadn't expected that King Reliance would be so merciful as to grant them freedom!
"Thank you for your grace, King Reliance ~"
"This servant is willing to stay in the wang fu and serve His Highness!”
"This servant also wants to stay and repay Your Highness 'great kindness!”
The dancers came back to their senses and were overjoyed. With endless gratitude, they knelt down to thank Li Xuanlie.
"Third brother, why are you doing this?
Such high-quality goods, giving them freedom and only letting them be maids, wasn't it a waste of heavenly gifts!
You should at least leave a few for you to dance and sing for you to enjoy!”
Li Jiancheng was confused and couldn't understand what Li Xuanlie was thinking. He couldn't help but complain.
"Imperial brother, do you really think that my residence is lacking beauties who are good at singing and dancing?”
Li Xuanlie asked sarcastically.
Li Jiancheng was taken aback. He didn't understand what he meant.
Li Xuanlie clapped his hands." Someone, bring those foreign slaves in."”
A moment later, three golden-haired, blue-eyed, and extremely beautiful foreign slaves walked into the hall and paid their respects to Li Xuanlie.
" Third Brother, they are…" Li Jiancheng's eyes were filled with confusion.
"The one on the left is called Mahtab. She was originally the Saintess of Persia.”
"The one in the middle is called Cleopatra. She was once the Queen of Egypt.”
"As for the one on the far right, she's called Diana, a Roman princess.”
Li Xuanlie pointed at the three foreign slaves and revealed their identities.
"The three of them were originally noble women with prominent statuses in the western countries, but now they are only dancers in my residence.”
After hearing the introduction, Li Jiancheng sucked in a breath of cold air, and his eyes were filled with deep shock.
