"Greetings, Your Majesty!"
When the carriage gradually came to a stop, Li Chengqian heard a hoarse voice from within the carriage.
He pulled open the curtain and looked outside.
The two huge stone lions set off the plaque of the Cheng Mansion.
"So the place I'm going to be a guest today is the mansion of Duke Cheng Yaojin.”
Li Chengqian understood and jumped off the carriage with the help of the guard commander, Li Qing.
The bearded Cheng Yaojin walked over with a laugh.
"This official greets Your Highness the Crown Prince. This is the first time Your Highness has left the palace, right?
Although the Imperial Palace was good, the prosperous scene in Chang 'an was rare to see in the Imperial Palace!”
Cheng Yaojin greeted him and winked at Li Chengqian.
This old man's smile was so sly!
Li Chengqian cursed in his heart and also smiled as he cupped his hands.
"Greetings, Duke Su! State Duke Su is right, this is my first time leaving the palace.
Today, after seeing the grandeur of State Duke Su's mansion, he realized that State Duke Su's claim to be wealthy was not false.”
Cheng Yaojin, who was originally laughing, froze. He changed the topic and said,
"Your Highness, you flatter me. This old minister's residence is really shabby…"
But at this moment, Li Chengqian pursed his lips and no longer listened to this old fellow's nonsense.
Your residence is shabby?
You probably haven't seen my dilapidated Yiqiu Palace!
On the other side, Second Emperor Li watched the two bickering and laughed out loud.
"Alright, Zhijie, follow me in. Gao Ming, come over too!”
This was the advantage of being the Son of Heaven.
Even if he was in someone else's house, Old Li was acting more like a host than Cheng Yaojin. He was not polite at all.
Soon, there was another wave of greetings.
Li Chengqian looked over.
He found that among the people in front of him were the charred face of Yuchi Gong, the sallow skin of Qin Qiong, the Duke of Wei Li Jing, and the Hejian King Li Xiaogong.
This group of people were all generals. It seemed that today was Old Li's gathering with his generals.
After they greeted Old Li, they came over to greet Li Chengqian. Li Chengqian returned the greeting one by one.
After busying himself for a while, he finally finished all these red tape.
Li Chengqian, who had been idle, only realized at this moment.
In the corner of the courtyard, there were three burly boys looking at him curiously.
Just as he had a guess in his heart, Cheng Yaojin waved his hand at the three boys.
"What are you three brats doing there?
Hurry up and come over to meet the Crown Prince and take him around.”
Sure enough, it was not out of Li Chengqian's expectations. These three guys were Cheng Yaojin's three cubs.
However, unlike Li Chengqian's ice sculpture and jade carving, the three Cheng brothers belonged to the rough type.
Although they looked young, the bodies of these three rascals were no longer that of ordinary adults.
When they greeted him, Li Chengqian also cupped his hands and said,
"Greetings to the three brothers of the Cheng family."
The three of them suddenly smiled. Cheng Chumo said in a croaky voice,
"Your Highness, please follow us. We brothers will show you around!”
Compared to listening to a bunch of old fools bragging, Li Chengqian was more willing to follow the three fools.
But soon, his little face fell.
It turned out that Cheng Chumo and the other two had actually brought Li Chengqian to the Cheng Residence's Martial Arts Practice Field.
"Your Highness, this is the place where the three of us usually practice martial arts.
Look at this stone lock, it's a hundred catties heavy. Come and try its weight!”
Cheng Chumo first lifted the stone lock a few times and then invited Li Chengqian to try it out.
Li Chengqian rolled his eyes.
A stone lock that weighs 50 kilograms with your bare hands? Are you joking with me?
Unfortunately, these three fools did not have the intention of joking.
It seemed that they felt that lifting a hundred jin stone lock was a very normal thing.
Li Chengqian blinked his eyes and suddenly pointed at the big stone roller in the corner of the martial arts field and asked,
"Brother Chumo, how heavy is this largest stone? Can any of you move it?"
Cheng Chumo, who was the tallest among them, was stunned. He said hesitantly,
"Your Highness, this stone roller is at least a thousand jin. Even my father can't move it.”
Li Chengqian smiled and said,"
"If I say I can push it, would you believe me?”
"I don't believe you!"
The three rascals shook their heads.
Cheng Chumo said loudly,
"Your Highness, if you can push this stone roller, then the three of us are willing to take you as our master!”
"There's no need to take me as your master. If I can push it, you have to listen to me from now on.”
Li Chengqian waved his hand and said with a smile.
The three rascals looked at each other and agreed without hesitation.
"Alright, it's a deal!"
Li Chengqian had nothing to do, so he was just playing with these three fools, so he opened his mouth and said,
"Brother Chumo, I need some tools to push this stone roller. Help me find them…"
The three rascals were anxious to see the result of the bet. After jumping up and down for a while, they quickly prepared what Li Chengqian needed.
The news that the Crown Prince was preparing to move the stone roller weighing thousands of pounds in the martial arts practice field also spread in the Cheng Residence.
Even Old Li and the others who were chatting had found out about this at this moment.
Private gatherings were meant to be fun.
After obtaining Old Li's approval, Cheng Yaojin, Yuchi Gong, and the other generals followed Second Emperor Li to the training ground.
Looking at the huge stone roller in the corner, Cheng Yaojin raised his eyebrows at Yuchi Gong."
"Old Charcoal, you always brag about your strength. If you have the ability, go push that stone roller!”
"If you want to push, then push. This old man is not some guy who looks strong but is weak in reality!”
The black-faced Yuchi Gong was not someone who could be provoked. At this moment, he rolled up his sleeves and rushed over.
He got into a horse stance, exhaled, and then pushed his palms onto the stone roller.
However…the stone roller didn't budge at all!
Cheng Yaojin laughed at the top of his lungs.
"Old Charcoal, if you can't push it, then don't force yourself. This stone roller weighs at least a thousand pounds. If you can push it, I'll call you father!”
After struggling for a long time, Yuchi Gong, whose old face was flushed red, walked back.
"Hmph, I can't push it, but do you think you can?”
Cheng Yaojin admitted defeat decisively.
"Hehe, I can't move it either. But what is His Highness the Crown Prince doing?”
At this time, everyone's gazes were all on Li Chengqian.
Even Old Li revealed a curious gaze at this moment.
