As the saying goes, one thing defeats another. Li Yuanji threatened Li Xiu very arrogantly just now, but when Princess Pingyang appeared, Li Yuanji immediately looked like a defeated quail, lowering her head and even daring to look up at Princess Pingyang.

"What are you doing when you are still riding on a horse to show off your power? Have you forgotten your mother's teachings back then?" Princess Pingyang walked closer and looked at Li Yuanji on the horse and scolded again. This was the first time that Li Xiu had seen her so harshly.

Hearing Princess Pingyang's scolding, Li Yuanji immediately rolled off the horse, then stood aside with his hands hanging down, not even saying a word of rebuttal. Occasionally, he raised his eyes and peeked at him, but found that Princess Pingyang was staring at him with anger on his face, which scared Li Yuanji lowered his head even more.

"Person Li, it's all my fault that I didn't discipline my fourth brother well, and I've caused trouble for you!" Princess Pingyang couldn't help but sigh when she saw Li Yuanji's pitiful appearance, and then apologized to Li Xiu on his behalf. The elder sister was like a mother, especially their mother, Empress Dou, died early. Her sister should have assumed the responsibility of teaching her younger brother. It was fine when she was not married before, but she really didn't have time to discipline Li Yuanji's younger brother over the years.

"The princess is so ruthless. The King of Qi is impulsive and likes to compete and be competitive. If he is not restrained, he may cause a big disaster for himself in the future!" Li Xiu glanced at Li Yuanji next to him and said, "Li Yuanji died in the Xuanwu Gate Incident, and his family was also treated cruelly. In addition to being in the wrong team, he is also closely related to his personality.

"What Li Zhengwei said is very true. When my mother passed away, Yuan Ji was too busy with his father, which made him a little obedient." When Princess Pingyang said this, she couldn't help but glared at Li Yuanji again, and then scolded again, "What are you still standing there? Apologize to Li Zhengwei!"

"Yeah!" Li Yuanji didn't even dare to let go of a fart, and came to Li Xiu obediently and bowed, "Li Li, I have offended me so much, I hope you don't blame me!"

"Your Highness, you are a little rude just now, I hope your Highness will forgive you!" Although Li Xiu was still a little angry, out of politeness, he also replied with a politeness.

Li Yuanji apologized to Li Xiu, and then looked at Princess Pingyang with a pitiful gaze. Princess Pingyang snorted again and said, "If you make a mistake, you will be punished. Do you still remember the family law that your mother made?"

"Remember!" Li Yuanji nodded with a bitter smile when he heard this.

"Just remember, I will kneel for one night before my mother's spirit, and I will not be allowed to go out for a month!" Princess Pingyang said sternly again. She is now very different from her usual gentle appearance, which makes Li Xiu feel very interesting.

"Yes!" Li Yuanji agreed with a sad face when she heard this, and then she led the horse away dejectedly. She didn't even dare to say anything rebuttal from beginning to end. From this we can see that Princess Pingyang's prestige in his heart is so high that even Li Yuan could not make him so obedient.

Looking at Li Yuanji who walked out far away and didn't dare to get on the horse, and then looking at Princess Pingyang who had been tense, Li Xiu suddenly felt very funny and said, "Princess, why is Your Highness King Qi so afraid of you? He doesn't dare to refute anything you ask him to do?"

Princess Pingyang watched her younger brother walk away, then sighed quietly: "People Li don't know anything. In fact, he is very pitiful. Our mother passed away many years ago. The eldest brother was already an adult at that time, and my second brother and I were not young anymore, but the fourth brother was only seven or eight years old at that time. And as the youngest son, he is also the most loved by his mother."

When I said this, Princess Pingyang paused and then said, "As soon as my mother left, my fourth brother suddenly became lonely. At first, I had nightmares every night and couldn't sleep. So I coaxed him to sleep every night and tried to make him happy. It took me half a year to get my fourth brother back up. Since then, he has become very attached to me. As the saying goes, my elder sister is like a mother. My personality is indeed very similar to my mother, so in my fourth brother's heart, my sister is actually no different from my mother."

Li Xiu nodded in understanding when he heard this. No matter how arrogant Li Yuanji was, he did not dare to disobey the princess Pingyang, who was like his eldest sister, but he did not dare to disobey at all. However, this also made Li Xiu very curious about the legendary Queen Dou. He was able to marry an emperor like Li Yuan and trained Li Jiancheng, Princess Pingyang and Li Shimin, three such outstanding children, even though Li Yuanji had defects in character, he was still extremely brave. Such a woman was like a legend. Unfortunately, the other party died early, otherwise Li Xiu would have to find a way to meet him.

Because of Princess Pingyang's intervention, Li Yuanji's farce of wanting to force Yue Chan to end so soon, even Li Xiu was a little surprised. Princess Pingyang was very thoughtful and comforted Yue Chan a few more words, then praised Fat Sister and waited for the ward, and then returned to the living room with Li Xiu again.

However, as soon as he returned to the living room, Princess Pingyang's face immediately showed a bit of sadness, and turned to Li Xiu and complained: "Person Li, this is not the first time I have heard of the fourth brother's arrogance and domineering name. This time I can still discipline him a few words, but it won't take long to be long. He will probably become cute again. The eldest brother has always spoiled him, and he will support him even if he causes trouble. But he doesn't know that doing so will only harm the fourth brother!"

Seeing Princess Pingyang's worried look, Li Xiu couldn't help but sigh. I'm afraid that Princess Pingyang would only reveal her feelings in front of him, but he was also powerless to do anything about this matter. It was difficult for the honest officials to make a decision on family matters, let alone the royal family matters.

"Princess, King Qi is already an adult and his personality has already formed. It is not easy to change his ideas. In addition, the prince is too indulging in King Qi, so I think the prince is better to convince the prince first and let him understand the harm of indulging in King Qi. This may slowly change the character of King Qi!" Li Xiu had no choice but to suggest, but he was not sure about this method.

"It's useless. I once advised my elder brother, but he agreed very well at that time. But every time my fourth brother made a mistake, he would still protect him. It was because of the elder brother's indulgence that the fourth brother, who was about to be twenty, still acted like a child in normal times, and did not consider any consequences. Even as a prince, he would probably suffer if he continued like this!" Princess Pingyang shook his head and smiled bitterly when he heard this.

"This" Li Xiu could only show an incomfortable expression when he heard this. This kind of housework was not something that outsiders could handle, not to mention that the prince Li Jiancheng was involved.

Princess Pingyang also found this problem and made Li Xiu feel embarrassed. She smiled embarrassedly and said, "Okay, let's not talk about these things anymore. If it really doesn't work, I haven't seen my father. Let him send his fourth brother to another place for training, which may make him mature."

Originally, Princess Pingyang came to find Li Xiu. In addition to telling him the good news about Tuyuhun, she also wanted to spend a day with him. However, after Li Yuanji's fuss, Princess Pingyang no longer had the mood to stay there. After chatting for a few words, she got up and said goodbye. Li Xiu had to send her away.

After sending off Princess Pingyang, Li Xiu found Yuechan and asked if she was scared. However, Yuechan smiled sweetly and shook her head. The protection of Li Xiu just now also made Yuechan feel moved, and a different feeling arise in her heart. This also made her secretly swear in her heart that no matter what happens, she will never leave Li Xiu.

"Master, the princess is back!" Before Li Xiu and Yuechan could say a few words, Liu'er suddenly rushed over again and reported a news that surprised him very much.

Li Xiu was also very surprised at Princess Pingyang's return and hurriedly walked out of the yard. As a result, Princess Pingyang stood under the tree outside the door with a smile on her face. When she saw Li Xiu, she said shyly: "Personnel Li, my birthday will be ten days later. I hope you can come that day!"

It turned out that Princess Pingyang remembered that she had forgotten an important thing after leaving, which was to invite Li Xiu on her birthday. Originally, she only needed to send a maid to talk about this kind of thing, but in order to show her sincerity, Princess Pingyang specially returned to invite Li Xiu in person.

"It turns out that the princess' birthday is coming, and this is a great event. At that time, I will definitely give you an unprecedented gift as a birthday gift for the princess!" Li Xiu smiled happily when he heard this. He was probably the only one in the Tang Dynasty who could be invited by Princess Pingyang himself. He had to prepare well, otherwise he would let Princess Pingyang down.

"Well, it's good that you can come that day, it doesn't matter whether there is a gift or not." Princess Pingyang said shyly again. When she said this, she frowned slightly and said again, "I didn't want to have a big fuss, but you also know my identity. Not only will my father and brother come that day, I'm afraid even the ministers in the court will come. I know that Captain Li doesn't like such occasions, and I'm afraid you will be wronged by then!"

"Haha, princess, why have you forgotten? I am a priest in the Women's Army. I have the position of receiving visitors. Uncle Ma is not here, so I must go early that day to help you receive guests!" Li Xiu laughed when he heard this. Since he has become a Women's Army, he naturally has to do his part for Princess Pingyang. You can't just get a salary and don't work, right?

Princess Pingyang was also moved when she heard that Li Xiu took the initiative to take on the task of receiving guests. She immediately reminded Li Xiu a few more words, and then she reluctantly said goodbye and left.

Seeing Princess Pingyang's back slowly disappearing into the distance, Li Xiu suddenly felt a little worried. He just promised to give Princess Pingyang an unprecedented gift. Although he knew many gifts that women like, such as perfume, clothes, shoulder bags, etc., there was no place to buy these things, so if you want to give Princess Pingyang an unprecedented gift, you must make it yourself. To be continued.
