Film and TV: People in Joy of Life become stronger by reading

Chapter 13: Many parties try to win over Lin Wan'er
Prince Wen’s Mansion, front hall.

"Your Highness, you are such a rare guest!" Li Chengping said.

This was the first time the Crown Prince had come here since he was enthroned as King Wen.

"Haha, I was quite busy the past few days, so I came here right away today since I have some free time."

"My third brother was crowned king a few days ago. I was wrong not to come and congratulate him in time. I have something to express my gratitude to you."

The prince smiled slightly.

The palace maid following him understood what he meant, and immediately placed the wooden box in her hand gently in front of Li Chengping and opened it on the spot.

At the bottom is a book, and on top of the book is a piece of paper.

When I opened it, I found that it was actually a land deed.

"Third brother, this is the deed to Chunfeng Tower in Kyoto City. It is a belated gift from me as your elder brother."

Li Chengqian said with a smile.

"Your Highness, this thing is too valuable. You should take it back. For me, a good book is worth a fortune!"

Li Chengping smiled faintly and calmly pushed the deed in front of Li Chengqian.

Chunfenglou is one of the famous restaurants in Kyoto. It is no exaggeration to say that it makes a fortune every day.

What is the prince's purpose in sending such a valuable thing?
Li Chengqian seemed not surprised by this answer and laughed.

"Third brother is indeed third brother. Ordinary things are not pleasing to your eyes. In this case, I have some good books here. Don't refuse them this time."

As soon as Li Chengqian finished speaking, another palace maid who followed him stepped forward and opened the brocade box, which contained three books.

It exudes a strong ancient atmosphere, which is the trace of the accumulation of years.

Li Chengping flipped through the books and was surprised to find that two of them were about cultivation techniques.

"Your Highness, what do you mean? Father has set a rule that the royal skills cannot be passed on to outsiders. Are you trying to harm me?"

Li Chengping had a gloomy face.

"Haha, Third Brother, don't be nervous. I got these two books of martial arts by chance from the martial arts world. They are my personal collection."

"You and I will need to get closer in the future. I hope you won't mind if I bother you."

After some polite words, the prince left.

As soon as the person left, Li Chengze came with Xie Bian.

As soon as he entered the door, his expression darkened when he saw the gifts on the table that had not yet been put away.

"Third brother, I know you like reading, so I specially picked out some good books from home."

"Also, I am somewhat familiar with the Minister of War. Now there is no one to guard your palace, Third Brother. Do you want me to notify him to send someone to deliver a batch to you?"

Li Chengze shook his long hair in front of his forehead and laughed.

"No need, I can arrange this myself." Li Chengping refused decisively.

Since Emperor Qing gave him the right to establish his own government, he would naturally make good use of it, but not now.

What's more, these soldiers were arranged by Li Chengze, and he didn't dare to use them!

After chatting for a while and seeing the guest off, Li Chengping fell into deep thought as he looked at the room full of gifts.

At this moment, he fully understood that being famous might not necessarily be a good thing.

Today, the Crown Prince and Li Chengze came to visit one after another. They had only one purpose, which was to win him over.

But how could they know that Li Chengping was not interested in this struggle at all.

As long as he remains safe and sound as he is now, the throne will surely fall on his head in the future.

But once a fight breaks out, no one knows what the outcome will be.

In addition to the two of them, some civil officials in the court also came to pay a visit.

As for these people in the court, Li Chengping always adhered to the principle of not meeting them if possible, and directly ordered Zhao Gao to keep them out.

The sky gradually darkened.

Li Chengping finished his meal and was about to rest, but unexpectedly Zhao Gao ran into the room in a hurry.

"Your Highness, there is a woman outside the door who wants to see you. She is holding your personal jade pendant." "Nonsense, I..."

Li Chengping's face darkened and he reached for his waist, where only the soul-hiding jade pendant was hanging alone.

Only then did he remember that the jade pendant had been given away at Prince Jing's Mansion this morning.

Seeing Li Chengping's uncertain expression, Zhao Gao said cautiously, "Your Highness, how about I drive him away?"

"No need for that. Just watch my eyes and don't call me Your Highness in front of those two..."

After giving careful instructions, Li Chengping stood up and left under Zhao Gao's strange look.

now.

In front of Prince Wen’s palace.

A carriage was parked at the door and the coachman was standing by waiting.

There were no decorations on the body of the carriage and it looked no different from a normal one.

inside the carriage.

Ye Ling'er looked at Lin Wan'er, extremely angry.

"Wan'er, you are ill. The imperial physician repeatedly told you not to run around. Look at what you did today."

"You sneaked away to attend the poetry gathering at Prince Jing's mansion this morning, and I finally settled down this afternoon."

"You came to Prince Wen's mansion again at night to meet an unknown person. Can't you send someone to inform Prince Wen and ask him to send the person to you?"

"You are so weak, and it's so cold at night. If you catch a cold, wouldn't it be worse?"

Ye Ling'er kept nagging.

Lin Wan'er was not angry at all, and there was a faint smile on her lips.

"Ling'er, I met a man at Prince Jing's Mansion this afternoon. He said he had a way to cure my illness, so I thought of coming here to give it a try."

The corner of Ye Ling'er's mouth twitched and she shook her head helplessly.

"Miss Lin, this is just to deceive ignorant little girls like you. Even the imperial doctors in the palace can't cure it, let alone him, a nobody?"

Lin Wan'er shook her head stubbornly: "Ling'er, I've seen his eyes, they are very sincere and don't seem to be lying to me."

"My dear Miss, have you ever seen a liar like me who would have the word liar written on his face?"

Ye Ling'er was speechless.

Lin Wan'er's situation is no longer a secret in Kyoto City. It will become clear as long as we investigate.

Only this young lady who is not very worldly-wise would believe it. How could anyone else make such a decision?

At this moment, a familiar voice sounded outside the carriage, and Lin Wan'er hurriedly stuck her head out.

The two looked at each other and smiled knowingly.

"Ling'er, everything should be done according to what I told you before!"

Before getting off the car, Lin Wan'er specifically reminded her, and although Ye Ling'er was helpless, she had no choice but to do as she was told.

At this moment, Ye Ling'er became the eldest daughter of the Lin family, and Lin Wan'er became a maid beside her.

"Where is your prince? Why hasn't he come?" Ye Ling'er asked angrily as soon as she came up.

"Reporting to the princess, the prince is a little tired and has gone to bed." Zhao Gao said with a smile.

Lin Wan'er was canonized as a princess by Emperor Qing, so there is nothing wrong with calling her that.

"Humph, he's always being so arrogant. Come inside!"

Ye Ling'er snorted in dissatisfaction and walked into the palace with a swagger, accompanied by Zhao Gao.

Li Chengping and Lin Wan'er walked at the back, exchanging secret glances with each other.

We sat down in the front hall and the servants brought us tea.

Ye Ling'er ignored him and stared at Li Chengping from head to toe. She felt that he looked strangely familiar, but she couldn't remember exactly what he was.
