The next day, in the King Shu Residence.
Li Ke slept very soundly.
However, he discovered that there were some unfamiliar faces around the Imperial Residence.
They were either breakfast vendors or street performers.
However, no matter what these people did, their attention would always be on the Imperial Residence from time to time.
Looking at this group of people, Li Ke did not need to guess to know.
They must be the Crown Prince's men.
Yesterday, the son of a famous general came to seek refuge
It was also Imperial Father who had come to the Imperial Residence unannounced.
It would be strange if the Crown Prince did not make a move.
However, this cheap Imperial Brother of his could only arrange for some people to monitor him.
He didn't dare to do anything big for the time being.
Since it didn't affect his leisure life, there was no need to clean it up.
It was good to let the crown prince spend more money.
After washing up with the attendant, Li Ke wanted to go to the study to see the silver eagle he had tamed.
When he passed by the main court, he saw it.
The twelve young generals who came to seek refuge with him yesterday were currently competing in martial arts.
It was as if he hadn't had enough of yesterday's martial arts competition.
One had to know that it was only the middle of the night and the morning court session had yet to begin.
These fellows were not training in his own residence.
Instead, he came to his lord's manor early in the morning to fight with martial arts techniques.
He really didn't know if these guys were full of energy or just too eager to show off in front of him.
Seeing the arrival of the King of Shu, everyone stopped what they were doing and bowed."
"Greetings, Your Highness."
"Yes, when did you guys come?"
"Your Highness, it's almost 15:00.”
A quarter past midnight?
It was only 7:30 in the morning, right?
It had to be said that this group of people was really energetic.
"Everyone is really energetic.”
"Thank you for your praise, Your Highness."
Damn, I thought he was praising me.
Then you guys can play around here. This king is going to swim eagle.
Thinking so, Li Ke smiled and said,
"Everyone, don't be so reserved.”
"Thank you, Your Highness!"
After saying that, Li Ke continued to walk towards the study.
Seeing that Li Ke had gone far away, everyone gathered around him.
The outspoken Yuchi Baolin said,"
"Brothers, when do you think His Highness will become a vassal?”
"I don't know, but from the looks of it, it seems like it will take some time.”
"Hmm? Can't Your Highness make contributions and leave a legacy?”
"This matter can't be rushed. We just have to follow His Highness.”
People expressed their opinions one after another.
Qin Huaiyu and Cheng Chumo had just arrived at the main hall.
Seeing Qin Huaiyu arrive, Yuchi Baolin hurriedly went forward to welcome him. He asked,"
"Brother Qin, do you know when the King of Shu will become a vassal?”
Qin Huaiyu glanced at Cheng Chumo and shook his head.
"I don't know, but why does Brother Yuchi ask such a question?”
Yuchi Baolin heaved a long sigh and said in a deep voice,"
"When my father was at my age, he was already a general.
But look at my brother now, he hasn't even become an assistant minister in the army.”
Yuchi Baolin's words resonated with his brothers.
Luo Tong also opened his mouth and said,
"My father was only my age when he followed the late emperor.
Now that the son was not as good as his father, how could he not be anxious?”
Qin Huaiyu fell silent after hearing what the two of them said.
How could he not be anxious?
However, no matter how anxious he was, he could not force His Highness.
Although Yizhou was rich, it was not as good as Chang 'an.
Unlike these martial artists, His Highness was a relative of the royal family and had a noble status.
If His Highness wanted to enjoy more happiness in Chang 'an, they would naturally support him!
Seeing that Qin Huaiyu was silent, Yuchi Baolin said,"
"Brother Qin, you have a sharp tongue, why don't you use a reason to probe His Highness?”
"This…"
Qin Huaiyu had a troubled expression.
Cheng Chumo also said,
"Brother Qin, if you have any doubts, I'm willing to go with you.”
Seeing this, the other brothers also took the initiative to say,
"Brother Qin, the brothers are also willing to go.”
Seeing his brothers in such a state, Qin Huaiyu could only compromise.
He said,"
"Alright, I'll take this opportunity to ask Your Highness.”
"However, if everyone goes together, it will be the same as forcing the abdication.
In my opinion, Brother Cheng should come with me.”
Everyone nodded solemnly.
Under the expectant gazes of the brothers, the Qin and Cheng brothers walked towards the study.
In the study, Li Ke was feeding rabbit meat to the silver eagle.
Ever since he hunted the silver eagle back, he had fed it a lot.
As a result, the silver eagle, which was originally only a meter tall, was now as tall as a person.
Even if Li Ke sat on the back of the silver eagle, he could directly ride the wind and fly in the air.
The silver eagle ate the rabbit meat heartily, its eyes full of loyalty and gratitude to Li Ke.
Suddenly, a familiar voice came from the door."
"Your Highness, Qin Huaiyu (Cheng Chumo) requests an audience.”
"Enter."
After a series of footsteps, the two of them arrived beside Li Ke.
Cheng Chumo wanted to speak, but he didn't know how to start.
In the end, he did not say anything.
Seeing this, Qin Huaiyu said,"
"Your Highness, the silver eagles have grown stronger under your care.
It seemed that he could already swim in the sky.”
Li Ke frowned slightly when he heard that. He could hear the hidden meaning in Qin Huaiyu's words.
Putting down the rabbit meat in his hand, Li Ke looked into Qin Huaiyu's eyes.
This glance caused Qin Huaiyu's heart to be endlessly shocked.
His Highness's gaze seemed to be able to see through other people's hearts.
Qin Huaiyu felt as if all his thoughts had been seen through.
Glancing at Qin Huaiyu, Li Ke smiled and said,"
"Don't beat around the bush. Just say what you want to say.”
A drop of cold sweat dripped down Qin Huaiyu's forehead. He cupped his hands in embarrassment and apologized,
"Your Highness has sharp eyes. Indeed, nothing can be hidden from you.”
"In fact, it's our brothers who want to know when His Highness will come.”
Cheng Chumo was afraid that Li Ke would misunderstand, so he hurriedly added,
"Your Highness, we have no intention of forcing you.”
Li Ke nodded.
He guessed that he was going to ask these questions.
After all, these guys were all straightforward and did not spend so much effort.
It was nothing more than the fact that the old master of the family had been rewarded when he was young and had commanded the army.
These guys also wanted to establish achievements like their father.
Li Ke smiled and said,
"Cultivating one's body and mind is also a meritorious deed.”
After saying that, Li Ke ignored the two of them.
He continued to feed the silver eagle rabbit meat.
Hearing Li Ke's words, Qin Huaiyu felt like he was struck by lightning.
He bowed respectfully and said,
"Thank you for your guidance, Your Highness!"
With that, he left the study with Cheng Chumo, who was still in a daze.
On the way back to the main court, Cheng Chumo was puzzled.
He asked,"
"Brother Qin, could it be that you understand His Highness 'meaning?”
"His Highness is truly profound.
We brothers are young and impetuous, too eager for quick success.
If he were to fight for his foundation with this mentality, he would only fail!
His Highness wants us to calm our minds and cultivate our bodies!”
After hearing Qin Huaiyu's explanation, Cheng Chumo finally understood.
He nodded repeatedly and praised,
"Your Highness's wisdom is truly divine.”
