Li Xiu quickly walked to the inner house. It was almost the second day of the day. Qi Niang should have been asleep, but today the lights were still on in her room. When Li Xiu walked into the door quietly, he could see Qi Niang, Li Chengdao and Liu Er sitting in a small round table playing cards. This is also Li Chengdao’s favorite game, but today he seemed listless, and his whole mind seemed not on cards.

"What's wrong? Chengdao, aren't you afraid that your father will scold you if you don't go back to the palace?" Li Xiu walked in with a smile and said. After all, Li Chengdao is still a child, and he has all his worries written on his face. When he saw him, Li Xiu had actually guessed something, so he specifically mentioned Li Jiancheng.

"Not afraid, I've been scolded today anyway, at worst I can get beaten up again when I go back!" Li Chengdao immediately showed an aggrieved expression on his face when he saw Li Xiu coming in, but he still said stubbornly. His words also made Li Xiu more sure of his guess.

"That's great, brother, you finally come. Brother Chengdao will give it to you. Sister Liu'er and I can finally go to bed!" Qi Niang immediately cheered happily when she saw Li Xiu coming in, then threw down the cards and pulled Liu'er and ran into the bedroom. It seemed that she had been sleepy for a long time, but she had been holding back and not sleeping to accompany Li Chengdao.

"Tell me, what conflict did you have with your father that you didn't even want to go back to your home?" Li Xiu walked over and sat opposite Li Chengdao, and then said with a smile.

Li Chengdao is the eldest grandson of the emperor. Even if he gets Li Yuan's special approval, he can come to Li Xiu's place to study, but he will definitely go back tonight. Otherwise, Li Jiancheng alone will have to scold him to death, but he is reluctant to go back even if he is scolded. He must be angry with his family, and the most likely is his father Li Jiancheng.

"Sir, do you think I'll help or help my relatives when something happens?" Li Chengdao suddenly said angrily, and tears suddenly burst out, as if he was suffering great grievances.

"Assistant or a dear? Why do you ask like this?" Li Xiu was stunned when he heard Li Chengdao's words.

"I brought a few younger brothers to play with Cheng Qian and the others this morning, but when the second brother Chengde saw that the toys in Cheng Qian's hand were fun, he insisted on going up to grab them, and even beat Cheng Qian to cry. I couldn't stand it and taught Cheng De a lesson. As a result, my father scolded me and said that I didn't know how to protect my younger brother, but it was obvious that the second brother was wrong first. Is it because he is my younger brother, so I would help him regardless of right or wrong?" Li Chengdao said aggrievedly.

Li Xiu was shocked when he heard this, and did not immediately answer Chengdao's words. Instead, he showed a contemplative expression. To put it in a small way, it was just a conflict between Chengdao and their children. It was just that Li Jiancheng's education method was wrong. But to put it in a big way, it showed that the battle between Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin had begun to intensify, and even affected their families. If this continues, Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin will probably end up completely breaking up, and the Xuanwu Gate Incident will not be far away.

Thinking of the above, Li Xiu couldn't help but sigh. The destruction between Li Jiancheng's brothers had nothing to do with him, but now his relationship with Princess Pingyang is getting deeper and deeper, and there are two students who are not students, Li Chengdao and Li Chengqian, which suddenly makes him feel like he can't escape. I really don't know what to do with Princess Pingyang when Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin really break out in the future?

"Sir, why don't you speak? Do you think I'm doing something wrong?" At this time, Li Chengdao asked in disappointment when he saw Li Xiu stop talking.

Li Xiu woke up after hearing this. He looked at Li Chengdao with a gentle smile and said, "No, I think Chengdao you did a good job. Since it was your second brother's fault, naturally you can't indulge him too much, otherwise it will only make him more arrogant. This is not a good thing for him, but..."

When he said this, Li Xiu suddenly paused for a moment, then smiled helplessly and said, "It's just that your father is also very loving to his son, and he hopes that your brothers will be harmonious and friendly. So after knowing that you have taught your younger brother a lesson, you can't help getting angry at you."

In the end, Li Xiu could only avoid the important things. There was no way to say this. He could not tell Li Chengdao that his father and his second uncle were fighting for his grandfather's position, and even bloody conflicts might break out in the future, right?

Although Li Chengdao was smart, he was still a child under ten years old. Therefore, he didn't doubt Li Xiu's comfort, but he was not convinced. Li Xiu asked him if he had eaten before, but Li Chengdao said he had no appetite, so he didn't eat any supper at all. Li Xiu was a little hungry. After all, he was just talking in the martial arts house before and didn't eat much, so he asked Yuechan to prepare a simple midnight snack and then ate and chat with Li Chengdao.

In fact, Li Xiu was very curious just now. Li Chengdao did not go back. Li Jiancheng should have sent someone to come. However, after chatting with Li Chengdao, he realized that although this kid was angry and didn't want to go back, he didn't do it. Instead, he had sent someone to go back and say that he lived with Princess Pingyang today, so it was not surprising that Li Jiancheng didn't send anyone to come.

That night, Li Chengdao lived in Li Xiu's place. The next morning, Princess Pingyang came here to visit him. When she learned that Li Chengdao was angry with his father, Princess Pingyang couldn't help but smile a little helplessly. However, she didn't think deeper, but thought that this was just a conflict within the family. After all, she didn't know the bloody conflict between Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin in later generations.

After a while, Li Chengqian also came to class as usual, but Li Xiu found that his face was blue. After seeing Li Chengdao, Li Chengqian immediately stepped forward and muttered with the cousin for a long time. It seemed that he was thanking Li Chengdao, which also made Li Xiu quite pleased. No matter how Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin and his brothers fought, at least the relationship between Li Chengdao and Li Chengqian and his cousins ​​was very good.

Yesterday was ten days, and Li Xiu ran to the Samurai House for most of the day to drink, so he didn't have time to prepare lessons. However, he has changed his teaching methods and arranged the courses for the three children very loosely. Speaking of which, most of the things he learned were returned to the original teachers. It would be good to be able to teach in junior high school and high school. Moreover, the children are still young. If the course arrangement is too tight, Li Xiu is worried that there is nothing to teach in the future.

It doesn't matter if there is no lesson preparation. Li Xiu took his three children to the river and assigned them a very broad course, that is, to observe autumn, mainly to let them observe the changes in autumn, compare them with other seasons, etc., and they must record them in detail, and finally Li Xiu will give them comments.

Such semi-playing and half-learning courses are also very popular with Li Chengdao and others. Qi Niang also brought her fun companion Xiao Ya, who is the daughter of the Ninth Sister of the female guards, two years younger than Qi Niang. Since she came to the house, she has become Qi Niang's little follower. According to Qi Niang, she usually teaches Xiao Ya some things, such as arithmetic and literacy. Now Xiao Ya knows more characters than her mother.

Li Xiu brought the four children to the river where he often went fishing, and then asked them to observe autumn in the woods behind him. However, he sat leisurely by the river to fish. Anyway, there was no danger in the woods, so he just needed to let them not get close to the river.

Just as Li Xiu sat down to fish, Fan Er walked over happily with a small basket on her shoulder. When he saw Li Xiu, he immediately stepped forward and thanked him: "Mr. Li, thank you for bringing us back yesterday!"

"You're welcome, you won't pick wild vegetables again, are you?" Li Xiu said in surprise at Fener. Since he stir-frying tea, he hasn't seen Fener come out to pick wild vegetables for many days. After all, she usually has no time. In addition, the season is not right now. The weather has started to get colder, and the wild vegetables have become old and tough and not delicious at all.

"Of course not. We had already bought some vegetables yesterday, but I remember there were a few persimmon trees in the woods. The persimmons on them should be ripe. I went to pick some and went home to eat them. If I couldn't finish them, I could make persimmon cakes. It would be sweet in winter!" As soon as I talked about eating, the powder immediately became very excited.

"Haha~ Although persimmons are delicious, you must not eat them on an empty stomach, and don't eat too much at once, otherwise you will get sick!" Li Xiu couldn't help but smile when he saw the excited look of the fan. In the end, he did not forget to remind the fan. After all, persimmons can easily cause gastric stones. It is said that drinking cola can dissolve, but where can I find cola in this era?

"I understand, I'll pick more, and take some for Sister Yuechan and the others back!" Fan'er agreed happily, then ran away with humming Xiaodian. When he saw Qi Niang and Xiao Ya, he didn't forget to say hello to them. Qi Niang and Xiao Ya had just heard the conversation between her and Li Xiu, and knew that she was going to pick persimmons, so he also clamored to go. Li Xiu did not stop him, but just reminded them loudly that they could not climb trees, and asked Li Chengdao to follow them and monitor them.

After a while, Fan'er ran back with a basket of persimmons. Qi Niang and the others followed behind, each holding a ripe persimmon in his hand and sucking it. Anyway, he had eaten breakfast, so there was no need to worry too much. Fan'er kept his promise and left half of Li Xiu. When it was almost noon, he asked Li Chengdao and the four of them to carry a few persimmons home. On the way, Qi Niang and Xiao Ya actually wanted to steal the persimmons, but Li Xiu scolded him. Both little girls pouted with displeasure.

After lunch, several children went to take a nap. Li Xiu did not have the habit of taking a nap. He went to the garden to transplant some flowers and plants into the flowerpot, and prepared to move them to the greenhouse when it was cold. However, just as Li Xiu dug a few flowers and plants, he suddenly heard a noise coming from the front yard, which surprised him a little. Yuechan has always been good at managing the family, and there is no conflict between the servants in the family, so why did it suddenly quarrel? (To be continued.)
