They were in dire straits, suffering terribly.

However, just before dark today, Li Chengze, who had been clocking in on time for the past few days, suddenly bowed to Li Chengxian and asked:

“Brother, you are able to meditate in the Cloud Palace every day to cultivate. This is truly a great perseverance. I admire you. But I think that you should go out and relax occasionally so that you can cultivate better.”

Therefore, today I would like to invite you, elder brother, to leave the palace. I have always known that you admire beauties of unparalleled grace. How about we go to the western part of the capital?"

The eldest princess of Northern Qi, who occasionally came over to join in the fun when she heard this, immediately brightened up.

During this time, she had been worrying about how to get Li Chengxian out of the palace, but seeing his ten years of arduous cultivation, she simply didn't know how to bring it up.

Now that Li Chengze had brought it up, it was just what I wanted, and I quickly echoed:

"Yes, yes, I also want to go and see."

Uh.

Li Chengze was struck dumb.

Hey, bro, we're going to a brothel, okay?

If you come along, I'm afraid someone will skin me alive.

Unexpectedly, Li Chengxian closed the book and smiled faintly:

"Since she wants to go, let her go. I think I only sneaked out of the palace once when I was a child, but I was too small to do anything."

Upon hearing this, Li Chengze leaned forward and gave Li Chengxian a thumbs-up.

It has to be you, sir. There was no embarrassment in saying that.

It's not just open and aboveboard; are you sure Emperor Qing wouldn't launch a crackdown if he found out?

then.

Snapped.

In the Imperial Study, Emperor Qing slammed the book shut and stared wide-eyed at Gong Dian.

"Are you sure Li Chengze took that brat to the pleasure boats on the Liujin River?"

"Yes, those were the words of that prince. You know his temperament; he always speaks in a straightforward and aboveboard manner."

Gong Dian bowed deeply, not daring to raise his head.

"Fine, fine, you little brat, you're being so righteous now, aren't you? You've gone too far."

This is the first time I've ever seen a prince bring another prince to such a filthy place; it's utterly disgraceful to the dignity of my imperial family.

"I did offer my advice, but that prince said..." Gong Dian hesitated to finish his sentence.

"Seriously? Is it true that home-grown flowers aren't as fragrant as wild ones, and that there's always a first woman who's the most fragrant and a next woman who's the most beautiful?"

Emperor Qing laughed, his face full of exasperation.

Gong Dian, however, settled in Bengbu.

"Ah, how could Your Majesty have known?"

"These are the words that little brat said when he was ten years old, the first time he ran away and was caught by me. There was also something else he said, 'Do you want to hear it...'"

at the same time.

On the spacious carriage, Tian Shu was driving, with Li Chengze's guards, Fan Wujiu and Xie Bi'an standing on either side.

Inside, the eldest princess of Northern Qi asked the same question: why did Li Chengxian agree so readily just now?

She kept in mind what Lin Wan'er had said: sometimes you have to be honest with your man.

“We live in the capital of Nanqing, a place where powerful families and influential people are intertwined. You can imagine that a group of men would always want to find some fun, which is better than coveting other people’s wives.”

Therefore, a wife is not as good as a concubine, a concubine is not as good as a stolen woman, a concubine is not as good as a maid, and a maid is not as good as a stolen woman. A stolen woman is not as good as one who cannot be stolen. This is what is called a man's nature, unless he has a problem in his heart and likes men.

Otherwise, you'll eventually meet someone who makes your heart flutter.

Li Chengxian waved the book in his hand, smiling as he explained things to the eldest princess of Northern Qi.

Li Chengze shuddered. He was trying to avoid the imperial power, yet he was also pursuing it. He only had one wife. Wasn't that a problem?

I was very flustered, but I didn't dare to say it.

Am I beyond saving?

Li Chengze spoke up instinctively.

The eldest princess of Northern Qi couldn't help but laugh at the sight.

"Ha, don't listen to his nonsense. Our current emperor of Northern Qi is my half-brother."

He is devoted to the country and its people, yet at this age he is still unmarried and has no concubines.

That's even worse than having only one queen.

"Would an emperor have such a flaw?"

Unexpectedly, Li Chengxian seemed to remember something, and looked at the eldest princess of Northern Qi with a smile, saying:

"That's not necessarily true! Every emperor, no matter how respectable, has his youthful and impetuous moments."

When Emperor Qing was young, he was even more outrageous than we were, running around flirting with women everywhere.

If a normal emperor could tolerate this, given his personality, our Southern Qing would have been destroyed by your Northern Qi long ago!

The eldest princess of Northern Qi was bewildered. Was this really that difficult?

"Hey, we're on a vacation, how did we end up talking about the destruction of a country?"

Li Chengze was startled and stopped Li Chengxian from speaking. He was afraid that if they continued talking, Nanqing would suffer if it didn't get destroyed first.

"Let's talk about something else then," Li Chengxian said with a smile. "Chengze, do you know your wife is taking us to the Liujin River? I remember Emperor Qing saying that his father is the commander of the capital's garrison."

Chapter 30: Your father-in-law won't clean up the mess, will he? [Please add to your favorites]

"What?"

The eldest princess of Northern Qi blinked her big eyes with curiosity.

"The garrison of the capital? Does that mean all the troops in the capital are under the control of his father-in-law?"

"That's right, a person who can control everything."

Li Chengze was almost in tears.

"Brother, we don't need to be so shameless."

Li Chengxian nodded, and Li Chengze immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

however.

"What I really wanted to say was, if he knew we went to Liujin River, would he bring his troops and wipe the place out?"

Uh?

Li Chengze is numb.

Do you think they can scan it?

Let alone military officers, even civil officials, if they found out that their son-in-law had gone to a brothel, would probably impeach him.

"Your Highness has arrived."

The carriage soon came to a stop.

Li Chengxian glanced at the honest and unassuming Tianquan and couldn't help but say:

"Don't call me Your Highness. Here you should call me Princess or Young Master Li. Doesn't that sound much better?"

"Whatever Your Highness says goes."

Upon hearing this, Li Chengze was stunned.

"If my elder brother calls me Young Master Li, then what am I supposed to do?"

Lee Seung-seon clearly hadn't anticipated this, as she had stolen Lee Seung-seok's nickname.

"How about you change your wife's surname and call yourself Young Master Ye?"

"also!"

"Then I will call myself Young Master Zhan."

"Get out of here! You haven't even changed your clothes. Are you afraid people will be blind and won't be able to tell you're a woman?"

Originally, Li Chengxian suggested that the eldest princess of Northern Qi change her clothes, but the princess dismissed the suggestion with disdain.

Since you don't feel embarrassed at all, then I don't care at all.

After getting ready, Li Chengze flicked his flamboyant bangs and shouted:

"Young Master Li, Young Master Zhan, shall the three of us walk?"

"lead the way!"

Li Chengxian tucked the book into his waistband and pointed.

The guards behind them hurriedly followed. Xie Bi'an and Fan Wujiu covered their faces, feeling that their usually arrogant and extravagant master now seemed like a guide.

When the group arrived at the dock, night had already fallen, and countless flower boats were drifting on the Golden River.

Strangely, a very luxurious pleasure boat is currently moored at the shore, guarded by thugs who prevent others from boarding, much to the dismay of the literati, poets, and young masters of noble families.

But it was the leader among them who shouted:

"I apologize to all the young masters, but the Drunken Immortal Recipe has already been booked by a distinguished guest. I hope you will understand."

Everyone immediately fell silent, exchanging bewildered glances.

Did they pack up the Drunken Immortal Formula?

This is the card.

This financial resources.

They must be princes or nobles from the capital.

However, Li Chengze led a few people and walked straight over.

Even from a distance, you could see the thugs waiting bowing to Li Chengze.
