Tang Dynasty: A Guide to Avoiding Pitfalls for Li Er at the Start

Chapter 93 Side Story: Tomorrow is a Big Day (Unrelated to the main story)

April 23.

Wenhe Mansion.

Red ribbons hang high, symbolizing joy and good fortune.

A pair of large red lanterns hung high on either side of the gate.

The street in front of the mansion was bustling with traffic.

Horse-drawn carriages lined up in long queues on the streets.

All that could be heard were loud shouts announcing the names of the owners of each carriage.

Cheng Zhijie arrived first, and upon seeing Qin Qiong who followed, he quickly went up to pay his respects.

"I wonder why His Highness summoned us here. I hope that Young Master Wen won't try to fool us with fried noodles and cabbage soup again this time."

Qin Qiong chuckled, patted Cheng Zhijie on the shoulder, and said, "Has Yaojin forgotten what day it is tomorrow?"

"What day?"

"Tomorrow is April 24th, a big day." A bold voice came from behind the two men. They turned around and saw Yuchi Gong walking over from not far away.

"April 24th, huh? I had completely forgotten. I never imagined time would fly by so fast."

"Yes, it's hard to believe that we've arrived at this point in the blink of an eye."

Qin Qiong gazed at Wen He's mansion and couldn't help but sigh.

"Please come in, gentlemen. His Highness is probably already waiting inside."

"please."

The three walked side by side.

Following them, Changsun Wuji, Du Ruhui, Fang Xuanling, and others also arrived one by one.

The three exchanged glances, bowed, and entered the mansion.

Soon after, Yan Liben, Jing Junhong, Zhang Shili, Lü Shiheng and others also arrived.

About half an hour later, a carriage arrived in a hurry.

Before the carriage had even come to a complete stop, a person stepped down. "Am I late?" Xu Jingzong asked, panting heavily.

Wen Zhong cupped his hands and smiled, "Not yet, the School Affairs Officer just happened to arrive at the last minute."

"Thank goodness, I made it early, otherwise I would have missed today's banquet."

Xu Jingzong breathed a long sigh of relief and laughed heartily.

After he entered the mansion, Wenzhong closed the gate.

Inside the main hall of the Wen family residence.

Music played on the zither and lute, and beautiful women danced together.

Li Shimin sat high at the head of the table, striking the earthen jar and singing loudly.

The three children, Li Chengqian, Li Tai, and Li Ke, went to the center to dance for their father.

Wen He and Wen Rou were sitting on the other side, watching the scene with joy and laughter.

As Li Shimin roared his last cry.

All eyes were on him.

The three little ones on the field stepped aside.

Suddenly, a person stepped out from behind Li Shimin.

This man was over seven feet tall, with a dignified appearance, sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes, and an extraordinary demeanor... Well, there's some fictional element to this, but only a little.

The young man approached Li Shimin, picked up a bowl of wine, and looked at everyone present.

"You've all worked hard so far."

"Tomorrow is April 24th, Lesser Fullness of Grain."

Everyone stared at him, holding their breath in concentration.

His eyes shone brightly, and his voice boomed like a bell as he shouted, "Great Tang: A Guide to Avoiding Pitfalls for Li Er at the Start, Now Available!"
