My hotel is full of emperors throughout history.

"Achoo!"

Chen Mo, who was pushing Li Chengqian, suddenly sneezed.

"Is the cysticercosis also sick?"

Little Sizi quickly asked with concern.

Chen Mo smiled.

"It's nothing, it's nothing. I guess someone's talking about me behind my back."

Sitting in his wheelchair, Li Chengqian scoffed upon hearing this, unusually sarcastic.

"You've probably done too many bad things, and even God can't stand it anymore, so He's giving you a sneeze as a warning."

"Hey! You heartless bastard!"

Chen Mo made a move to let go.

"Believe it or not, I'll make your wheelchair do a 180-degree drift right now!"

"You dare!"

Li Chengqian spoke toughly, but his hands instinctively gripped the armrest of the wheelchair.

Little Sizi found the two bickering hilarious and giggled.

Li Lizhi looked at the little Sizi in her arms, then at Li Chengqian who was arguing with Chen Mo, and smiled slightly.

She could tell that although Li Chengqian was still angry about Li Shimin's decision to appoint Li Tai as regent, the gloom between his brows had indeed dissipated considerably.

Zhu Biao, supporting Empress Ma, with Liu Ju and Fusu beside him, couldn't help but chuckle at the scene before him.

Soon, the group arrived at the football field.

Looking at the huge football field, everyone fell silent and turned to look at Chen Mo.

Especially Li Chengqian.

He pointed to the goal, which was taller than him when he stood up.

"You mean you want me to guard this?"

Chen Mo chuckled.

"Don't be in such a hurry! The door is a bit big, but doesn't that show how powerful you, Li Chengqian, are?"

Li Chengqian: ……

What sins did he commit in his past life to have befriended such a scoundrel as Chen Mo?

To reiterate, Chen Mo didn't treat him as a disabled person.

I should have been happy, but... they didn't treat him like a human being...

"Normally, football requires at least twenty or thirty people, but we don't have many, so to be fair, I'll team up with Gao Ming, and the rest of you will team up."

Chen Mo picked up the soccer ball.

"The rule is that no one except the goalkeeper can touch the ball with their hands; they can kick it with their feet or head it."

"That's pretty much the rule. Do you have any further questions?"

Zhu Biao and the other two exchanged glances.

"There's no problem, it's just..."

The three of them looked at Li Chengqian.

"Is it really okay for you two to be a team?"

Chen Mo put his hand on Li Chengqian's shoulder and chuckled.

"Don't worry! My teamwork with Gao Ming is the best!"

Seeing this, the three nodded.

"In that case, let's begin!"

"I want to play too! I want to play too!"

Upon seeing this, the little ox immediately became unhappy and muttered something under its breath.

"This is so much fun, yet you didn't even bring any roosters! Those little cysts are so naughty!"

"Sizi, you're too young! No way!"

Li Lizhi immediately rejected Xiao Sizi.

Seeing this, the little ox puffed up its cheeks.

"Sister's mean! Sizi's ignoring her now!"

After saying that, she turned her head away, looking unhappy.

Soon, the game began.

Because Chen Mo was familiar with the game and Zhu Biao and the others deliberately let him win, Chen Mo quickly scored a goal.

But soon, the three of them gradually mastered the technique, directly snatched the ball, and dribbled it all the way to the goal guarded by Li Chengqian.

suddenly,

Chen Mo shouted from behind the three of them.

"Go ahead and kick! But whatever you do, don't kick Gao Ming, or if something happens to him, his dad might come at you with a knife!"

Zhu Biao, Fusu, Liu Ju: ???

Li Chengqian: ? ? ?

Wow, so that's what you were planning?

Zhu Biao and his two teammates stood in front of the goal, and suddenly found themselves in a stalemate.

踢？

Which way to kick?

If the ball is not careful, or if Li Chengqian tries to guard the goal, it might hit him squarely in the leg...

At that time, the Great Khan of the Tang Dynasty, whose martial prowess was not insignificant, would probably...

The three of them thought about Li Shimin's appearance and suddenly shuddered.

Only Li Chengqian glared angrily at Chen Mo.

"You bastard! What do you take me for?"

"Brilliant! You, the Crown Prince of the Great Tang Dynasty, surely can't even guard a small gate?"

"How can we protect the Tang Dynasty's territory if things continue like this?"

Li Chengqian: ……

Since you've said that, it's simply unacceptable for him not to guard it properly.

brute!

Beast!

He used to consider Chen Mo a close friend!

Li Chengqian thought to himself, but a serious look appeared in his eyes.

He limped to his feet, still holding onto his wheelchair.

He really hasn't been getting any exercise!

Coincidentally, everyone present was a prince!

He'd like to see!

What makes Li Chengqian inferior to them?

At the same time, Chen Mo's voice came from behind them again.

"Brother Biao, how can you bear to attack an injured person who can't even kill a chicken?"

Zhu Biao and the other two exchanged a glance, both of them numb.

Listen to how adept this moral blackmail is!

This kid must have already planned everything out in his head!

Is this appropriate?

Zhu Biao remained silent for a long time, then gave a bitter smile and cupped his hands in a respectful gesture towards Li Chengqian.

"Brother Chengqian, it's not that I'm afraid, it's just that I'm... hesitant to act for fear of harming the innocent."

Fusu shook his head helplessly.

Liu Ju simply flicked the ball aside gently.

Chen Mo finally couldn't hold back and burst into laughter as he walked over.

"Look! Look! This is the invisible deterrent power of our Crown Prince Gaoming!"

"Standing here, it's like a one-man fortress, impenetrable to ten thousand! What ball can possibly go in?"

"Who dares to let the ball go in?"

Li Chengqian glared at Chen Mo as he listened to his teasing...

Upon hearing Chen Mo's words, Zhu Biao seemed to realize something and turned his gaze to Xiao Sizi beside him.

He smiled gently and waved to the little ox.

"Sizi, could you do your brothers a favor?"

Seeing this, Liu Ju quietly kicked the ball to Xiao Sizi's feet.

Little Sizi looked at the ball rolling in front of her, then at the expectant and encouraging looks in her older brothers' eyes, and instantly forgot what Li Lizhi had said.

She puffed out her little chest and said in a childish voice.

"Great! Sizi is the most helpful!"

Li Lizhi wanted to stop it, but it was too late.

Little Sizi took her short legs and wobbled to the ball. With all her might, she weakly kicked the ball towards the goal—or rather, towards her older brother Li Chengqian!

The ball rolled along the ground, its trajectory erratic, until it finally rolled slowly to Li Chengqian's feet.

Li Chengqian watched the ball slowly rolling towards him, and then looked at his younger sister, who was standing with her hands on her hips and had a "Isn't Sizi amazing?" look on her face, seeking praise. The last bit of tension and resistance in his heart instantly crumbled, turning into a soft feeling that made him both laugh and cry.

Could he really act like a goalkeeper and dive out to block this "sister's all-out attack"?

Does he dare?

Can he bear to part with it?

If he really dares, Little Sizi will probably burst into tears in the next second!

Left with no other option, Li Chengqian attempted to block the ball, but "accidentally" fell to the ground.

Then, the ball slowly rolled into the goal.

"Yes! Goal! Goal!"

When the little ox saw the ball roll across the white line, it immediately cheered and jumped for joy.

The other three exchanged glances and couldn't help but smile.

Li Chengqian, who had fallen to the ground while diving for the ball, couldn't help but smile when he saw this scene.

Screw the regent!

Screw Bluebird!

Screw the battle for succession!

Screw Li Shimin!

What imperial throne is better than a rhinoceros?

Li Chengqian raised his head, looked at Zhu Biao's outstretched hand, smiled slightly, shook hands, and sat up from the ground.

Have a great match!

Have a great match!

The group exchanged smiles.

Empress Ma, who was sitting on a bench not far away, couldn't help but smile when she saw this.

"Youth is wonderful!"

Empress Ma sighed, her tone tinged with nostalgia and a touch of relief.

"If only things could stay like this forever?"
