Chapter 662
In Chang'an City, if Xieyu Tower is the best brothel, then Lexian Tower is the crown of Chang'an restaurants.

There are many vagabonds and sons of officials in Xieyu Tower, while Lexian Tower has attracted many high-ranking officials and dignitaries in Chang'an with its elegant environment, excellent location, and excellent dishes from the chef.

Lexian Building, the innermost private room on the second floor, a place that ordinary people can't enter, is also the place where Changsun Wuji entertained Li Ke.

"Minister Sun Wuji pays homage to the prince." Changsun Wuji was the host, and Li Ke came one step ahead. When Li Ke and Changsun Chong entered the private room together, Changsun Wuji stood up and worshiped.

When the eldest grandson Wuji saw the salute, Li Ke hurried forward, helped the eldest grandson Wuji up, and then bowed his hands and returned the salute: "Sikong is the elder of the palace, why bother to be so polite."

Changsun Wuji is the eldest son of Empress Changsun, and Li Ke is the legitimate son recognized by Empress Changsun. What Li Ke said is not inappropriate. The gift of Changsun Wuji is really difficult for Li Ke to accept.

Changsun Wuji got up and led Li Ke to the main seat, while Changsun Wuji, Changsun Chong and Changsun Jun sat in rows beside Li Ke.

Changsun Wuji said: "The Changsun's residence is hosting a banquet for the crown prince today, and it is indeed an honor for me to have the crown prince come."

Li Ke said with a smile: "It's a rare fortune for my eldest grandson Sikong to invite me to a banquet. How can I not come here?"

Although Li Ke's words were a joke, they were not entirely false. After all, Changsun Wuji had a feud with Li Ke in the past, and Li Ke was the first to eat Changsun Wuji's meal. Also very rare.

Changsun Wuji heard the words and said with a smile: "I'm afraid that today's banquet is too elegant, and it may not satisfy the prince's appetite."

Lexianlou is a nobleman without a brothel, and Li Ke is famous for being a romantic man in Chang'an. In the eyes of others, a banquet without beauties may not satisfy Li Ke's appetite.

Li Ke chuckled lightly and said: "Nowadays is not the same as in the past. In the past, my palace was a prince, so I naturally had no taboos in doing things, but now that I am a prince and an example for the people of the country, it is better to be more cautious, or more elegant. .”

Li Ke and Changsun Wuji were still exchanging greetings, but Changsun Chong, who was sitting beside him, picked up the jug by the table first, and filled Li Ke and Changsun Wuji with wine himself.

After Changsun Chong filled up the wine, Changsun Wuji raised the glass first, and said to Li Ke: "The prince went to Jiuquan to worship his ancestors, and went west to Liangzhou. He has worked hard for the country. Although this cup of wine came late, but That is to say, it is to welcome the prince."

Seeing this, Li Ke also raised the wine glass in his hand, and said to Changsun Wuji: "Sikong's heart is my heart."

After finishing speaking, Li Ke picked up the wine glass, raised his head and drank it down.

After waiting for a glass of wine, Li Ke poured another glass himself, and said to Changsun Wuji: "Since Sikong is so polite, then I will also borrow flowers to present Buddha. This cup, I will treat it as my palace thanking Sikong for his mercy and protection in court. Thank you."

A few days ago, when the whole court was impeaching Li Ke, Changsun Wuji was able to keep silent, and in the end he spoke out to help Li Ke get over it, which was also helpful to Li Ke.

Changsun Wuji heard the words and said with a smile: "Haha, the prince is polite, I just protect myself, but I dare not speak of the prince's kindness."

In fact, up to this time, although Li Ke had speculated about Changsun Wuji's intentions, but Changsun Wuji himself hadn't revealed it at all, and Li Ke naturally wouldn't be in a hurry to get to the bottom of it and short the city.

Li Ke put down his wine glass and said with a smile: "What Sikong said, I don't know what the palace is. I don't know why Sir Sikong protects himself?"

Changsun Wuji also smiled and said: "Although I am old, my eyes are still brighter than others, and I can see more clearly. The tide in Chang'an is approaching, only the clowns in the court are still jumping up and down like fish, In my opinion, it is nothing more than seeking death."

The big tide that Changsun Wuji said was naturally the fact that Li Shimin and Li Ke deliberately suppressed the Guanlongmen faction, and those Yueyu who were jubilant up and down, knowing that their death was approaching, were the Guanlongmen faction in the court who impeached Li Ke.

Li Ke knew the meaning of Changsun Wuji's words, but he didn't point out directly, but followed Changsun Wuji's words: "Since the tide is approaching, it is the time when the fish is the most abundant, why don't Sikong give it a try? "

Changsun Wuji said: "The difference between fish and fish is only half a word, but they are worlds apart. One is a knife and ax, and the other is cattle and sheep. How can you generalize it? I don't even know whether I am a fisherman or a fish. How dare I take it lightly?" try."

The fisherman is used for fishing and hunting, and it is used as a tool; while the fisherman is the thing to be caught, which is used as food.As far as the current situation is concerned, Li Shimin and Li Ke are the first to strike first, which is Yu, while the Guanlong clan is the fish. It is true that Changsun Wuji is the emperor's confidant, but he is also a powerful person among the Guanlong military clan. It is extremely embarrassing if the identity is between the two.

Li Ke said: "The difference between one word and one thought is whether it is fishing or fish, it just depends on Sikong's meaning."

Changsun Wuji shook his head and said: "It's better for young people to do the tide-making thing. I'm old and not as old as the prince and Chong'er. I'm afraid it's hard to follow the prince's wishes."

Li Ke's intention was to have Changsun Wuji stand together with himself and Li Shimin, and attack the Guanlong Clan, but Changsun Wuji's attitude was quite ambiguous, and he didn't want to be the target of Li Ke and Li Shimin with the Guanlong Clan. And he didn't want to stand with Li Ke.

But thinking about it, although Changsun Wuji wanted to protect himself, he was also a member of the Guanlongmen Clan after all, so it would be difficult for him to deal with the Guanlongmen Clan.

Hearing this, Li Ke tapped his fingers lightly on the table, looked at a plate of fish meat on the table, and asked Changsun Wuji: "Then why did Sikong come to see me today? It can't be true. Come and invite the fish eaters in this palace."

Changsun Wuji smiled and said: "Of course not, what kind of person is the prince, if he only eats fish, how dare I bother you, I invite the prince here today because I want to make a deal with the prince."

Hearing the word "deal", Li Ke couldn't help showing a smile on his face. Li Ke likes to make deals, and he has done so many deals. He believed it would not happen this time.

Li Ke said: "Although this king is not a businessman, he also likes to do business. Sikong just said so."

Changsun Wuji said: "I'm old, it's enough to be able to get to this day, I have no ambitions, I don't want to, and I don't want to end up in the tide. But the Changsun family doesn't want to be a fisherman, and he doesn't want to be a fish, not just now. , and it will be the same in the future, so I want to do this business with the prince."

Changsun Wuji and the entire Changsun family don't want to be a catch in the eyes of others. The best way is to stand with the fisherman. This person is now Li Shimin, and in the future he will be Li Ke, who is firmly in the crown prince. Let Li Ke settle their suspicions Naturally, it is what Changsun Wuji asked for today.

Li Ke asked: "What Sikong said is not difficult for me. In fact, it is what I have always thought about. But after all, buying and selling is a matter for both parties. I don't know how I can make money from it?"

Changsun Wuji asked: "The imperial concubine has been in charge of the harem for many years, and she already has the potential to be the mother of the world. Doesn't the prince want to push it again?"
