Chapter 182 The Prince's Invitation
Li Xiuning took all the photos he washed last night. There were more than 200 photos. Most of them were group photos of some ministers. Although most of the photos were repeated, Li Xiuning was still very satisfied to come to Tai Chi Hall.
"Father, look at this photo taken yesterday." Li Xiuning presented the photo to Li Yuan as he spoke.
Li Yuan took the photos and started looking at them one by one.
"Hahaha." The first thing Li Yuan saw was a photo of himself and Li Xiuning and Pei Ji. Pei Ji was like Zou Nizi when he was taking the photo, and was preserved at that moment. Zou Nizi's appearance, no matter how you look at it, you always feel very funny. After Li Yuan finished reading it, he burst into laughter.
"Hahaha..." Pei Ji looked at the way he looked like Zou Nose in the photo, and also felt that Zou Nose was a little funny, and then burst into laughter.
"I'll take a good look." Li Yuan picked up the photos of other ministers and looked at them.
"Well, the other people's photos are all good." Li Yuan looked through the photos one by one, constantly commenting.
"Okay! Send the photos to others and let the ministers in the court see what they looked like at that time." After seeing all the photos, Li Yuan handed them over to Pei Ji and said.
Pei Ji distributed the photos. When all the civil and military ministers saw that the self in the photos was exactly the same as that in reality, they exclaimed surprise. Many ministers pointed at their photos, said that they were left behind as they looked in the photos, and even made fun of other ministers as they were in the photos.
After Li Jiancheng got the photo, he compared it with Li Yuanji beside him.
"This is much better than the drawing! The camera is amazing." Li Jiancheng exclaimed after comparing.
"Brother, I don't think the paintings are as good as the photos. The characters I draw are so awkward, and the characters I draw are not similar to those I do, so the difference is too big." Li Yuanji said as he looked at himself in the photo.
After saying that, Li Yuanji looked at himself in the photo for a while and kept marveling: "This camera is such a treasure. He just took a photo of himself in the blink of an eye. This is much faster than the drawing speed, mainly because the photo is exactly the same as mine."
After hearing Li Yuanji's words, Li Jiancheng nodded and expressed his deep agreement.
Li Yuanji came to Li Xiuning and said with a compliment: "Sister Third Sister borrowed your camera to me for a few days. I want to have a picture with my children, can I just do it?"
Li Xiuning knew her younger brother's virtue, and probably took the camera back by him. He either broke it or refused to repay it. He shook his head quickly and said, "Borrow, don't think about it. I will come to the palace in a few days. I will take dozens of pictures for your family. This is OK!"
"Sister I'm so stingy. Isn't it just a few days to play? It's not that I won't give you back." Li Yuanji muttered quietly from the side.
Li Xiuning glared at her apricot and asked sternly: "What are you mumbling there? Don't think I didn't hear it."
"Hehe, I didn't mumble." Li Yuanji smiled and pleased her.
Not only were the photos taken by civil and military ministers on cameras strangely, but even the concubines in the harem sent eunuchs to take away a few pictures and took them back to watch them.
Yesterday they just heard the palace maids say that they could draw people all at once, and they were exactly the same as themselves. They were still confused and couldn't believe it was true. Now they saw real things all at once, and they all wanted Li Xiuning to take some photos of them as a souvenir.
When Li Yuan was happy, he asked Li Xiuning to stay in the palace for a few days to take photos of his concubines and his two girls.
...
Li Yu came to Li Xiuning's villa.
"Are you here?" Li Xiuning in the garden saw Li Yu, and without waiting for Li Yu to speak, she smiled on her face, and quickly stood up and looked at him happily.
"Have you not had a rest these days?" Looking at Li Xiuning's tired face, dark circles and tired eyes, I guessed that she had not had a rest these days.
"Well! I have been taking photos in Chang'an City these days. You also know that there are too many concubines in the palace and my brothers and sisters. I have to take photos during the day and wash photos at night, so I haven't had a good rest these days." Although Li Xiuning was very tired, Li Yu could still feel the joy in Li Xiuning.
Li Yu walked to Li Xiuning's side, reached out and touched Li Xiuning's tired face, and said with heartache: "You! In order to take photos for them, aren't you going to rest for days or nights?"
He must be sure that he was her relatives and friends, and they were waiting in line for Li Xiuning to take photos of their family one by one, taking photos for one day during the day and then rinsing the photos overnight at night.
"Don't worry! It's only a few days, and I won't be there anymore." After Li Xiuning felt that she had a skin kinship with Li Yu, Li Yu's attitude towards him also changed drastically. He knew that he cared about him and buried him happily in Li Yu's arms.
"You must pay attention to your health in the future." Li Yu felt a sense of distress in his heart. He hugged her body tightly.
It took a long time later that Li Xiuning asked about Li Yu's purpose in coming to the other courtyard today.
"You usually don't come to the other courtyard. Is there anything else to do when you come here today?" Li Xiuning came out of Li Yu's arms, her pretty face turned slightly red, and she looked puzzled.
Li Yu took out an invitation and said helplessly: "Look, I received this today."
Li Xiuning was also a little curious at this time. He took the invitation and opened it and looked at it. He found that the invitation was actually the invitation given to Li Yu by her elder brother, the prince Li Jiancheng, and invited Li Yu to the East Palace for a banquet.
"What's the point of being embarrassed about this? My elder brother invites you to the banquet. Just go there. Are you still afraid that my elder brother will eat you?" After reading the invitation, Li Xiuning looked up at Li Yu and smiled.
Li Yu focused on her and said slowly: "If I wanted to go, I wouldn't let you read the invitation today. The key is that I don't want to go!"
"Why? Isn't it just a meal?" Li Xiuning asked in confusion.
Li Yuban looked up and said, "I have rejected your second brother's recruitment before, and now I don't want to accept your eldest brother's recruitment. Do you understand?"
Li Xiuning thought about his past and understood his virtues even more. He giggled and said, "I know you don't like being an official, but with your talent, whether it's your eldest brother or second brother, they will recruit you with all their strength."
"We have agreed that you don't force me to be an official. If I want to be an official, wouldn't it be better to stay in the Detachment of Women? Why should I go to other people's hands to serve others? Wouldn't it be better for me to serve you?" After Li Yu said, he felt that the last sentence was a little warm.
"Then why don't you stay in the Detachment of Women? At least if you stay in the Detachment of Women, no one dares to restrain you, and I am willing to listen to you." After Li Xiuning said that, he looked straight at Li Yu again, hoping that he would come back to help him.
Li Yu did not answer her words, but couldn't help asking: "By the way, do you support your elder brother or your second brother?"
Li Xiuning was silent for a moment, shook her head sadly: "I don't know, one is my elder brother and the other is my second brother, and I don't want to support anyone."
This is the helplessness of being born in an imperial family. One is her eldest brother and the other is her younger brother, which is enough for her to make things difficult for her.
Li Yu suddenly had the urge to kill the two of their brothers. For the sake of bullshit, Li Xiuning was in a dilemma.
Li Yu also knew that killing the two brothers was just to think about it, otherwise Li Xiuning would hate him for the rest of his life, and finally he could only sigh helplessly: "Hey! One is your elder brother and the other is your second brother, it's enough to make things difficult for you."
"Forget it, let's not talk about their affairs, it's a headache. Do you want me to help you turn off this banquet?" Li Xiuning stroked the hair on her forehead and looked at him with beautiful eyes.
Li Yu said leisurely: "That's true. I don't want to have any social interaction with your elder brother. If you don't go and lose your elder brother's face, what if I have a conflict with your elder brother, you will be in a dilemma again in the future, right?"
Li Xiuning knew his faults and asked with a smile: "You are so confident that you don't even give the prince's face."
Li Yu said calmly: "You just need to know that there is nothing in the world that I, Li Yu, cannot do. In addition, let your elder brother not send me any invitations in the future!"
Li Xiuning understood that he was not a joke. When she was thinking about the conflict between him and Yuanji, she was also afraid that Li Yu and his elder brother would have another conflict, so she was stuck in the middle and was in a dilemma.
Li Xiuning nodded and agreed. This was not a difficult task for her, and the eldest brother is not short of talents now. She said it herself, and she believed that the eldest brother would still give him a face.
Seeing that the matter was done, Li Yu wanted her to go back and rest early. He handed a watch to Li Xiuning and said, "I'll give it to you."
When Li Xiuning saw the watch, she browsed with joy and took the watch happily, but muttered: "I thought you forgot me?"
"I'm leaving. If you don't like it, you can throw it to the pool over there." Li Yu looked at her jealous look and smiled and pointed at the pool next to her.
"You can accompany me for a while?" Li Xiuning shouted happily as she looked at Li Yu's back.
"Go back to bed quickly! I'll have something to do with Li Xueyi." As he spoke, Li Yu had already left the garden and could no longer see anyone.
Li Xiuning watched Li Yu's back disappear, then opened the watch box, took out a black watch, put it on his wrist, put it in his ear, and then sounded "Tick tick..."
"This bad guy, I don't know where to get these treasures?" Li Xiuning listened for a while, looked at the watch in his hand happily and muttered to himself.
