After washing up, the servant girl also brought in the meals. There were more than a dozen plates, which were very rich.

Although the status is not good, the food has always been good.

Li Xiao sat down at the table, picked up the chopsticks, and was about to pick up some food, but suddenly his expression darkened.

Then he picked up a plate of dishes and smelled them carefully, his face was very ugly.

Someone poisoned!

Chapter 9: Give birth to a child like Li Xiao!

Li Xiao's face was very ugly.

Someone actually poisoned his meal!

He is the son of King Qin, although his status in the mansion is not very good, but not everyone has the guts to harm him.

It was impossible for him to find out, but fortunately, the system has engraved all the knowledge of Hua Tuo's medical classics in his mind.

After his identification, this chronic poison does not pose a fatal threat to the human body for a while.

But long-term use can lead to brain failure.

In other words, intelligence will be affected, and eventually you will become a fool or an idiot.

Moreover, according to his memory, he seemed to have been taking this slow poison for quite some time.

Who exactly did it?

Li Xiao was the first to think of his good brothers.

"Don't let me know who you are!"

Li Xiao put down his chopsticks, a cold light shot out from his eyes.

……

The front hall of the Qin Mansion.

At this moment, there is an endless stream of people coming and going.

Today, the King of Qin hosted a banquet for his ministers.

"Hey, you heard that too?"

"That's natural. It spread throughout the capital. His Royal Highness Qin has a son who suddenly became enlightened. He is extremely intelligent and eloquent. It is said that even some first-rate advisers can't argue with him."

"Bringing a child should be like Li Xiao!"

Countless high-ranking officials and nobles, with bright smiles on their faces, entered with gift boxes.

"Haha, congratulations!"

"Congratulations to His Royal Highness King Qin, Mr. Xiao is such a genius, it's a rare occurrence in a hundred years!"

"That's right, only His Royal Highness King Qin can teach such an excellent son!"

……

Countless people rushed to express their congratulations.

As for the main seat in the front hall, Li Er sat there with a blank expression on his face, quietly watching the flow of people in front of him.

"Chengqian, my father asked you, do you know their reason for coming?"

With thoughtful eyes, Li Er asked Li Chengqian next to him.

Li Chengqian thought for a while, and said slowly: "Go back to my father, these people are naturally here to curry favor with my father."

"Why?" Li Er continued to ask.

"On weekdays, when the former prince was around, these people would hide away from his father. Now that the former prince has fallen, his father is the only heir apparent. Naturally, they want to curry favor."

Li Chengqian said unhurriedly.

However, Li Er slowly shook his head: "You are wrong, they all came here to beg for mercy to save their lives."

"beg for mercy?"

Li Chengqian's expression changed, thoughtful.

"Chengqian, you can't just look at things on the surface. In this regard, you are not as good as Xiaoer."

Li Er said lightly with a calm face.

Hearing this, Li Chengqian's face froze slightly, and then he smiled: "What the father said is true, my brother is so smart, I feel ashamed."

Hearing this, Li Er cast a glance at Li Chengqian, and said nothing more.

Soon after, the banquet began.

The front hall was full of guests and friends, and everyone was sitting upright, not daring to move, just like a group of well-behaved children in class.

How dare they move.

The prince and King Qin were at odds before, so they naturally favored the prince.

After all, he is the future prince. No matter how powerful His Highness King Qin is, he cannot compare with the crown prince.

But who knew, in just a few days, it was reported that the prince and King Qi had rebelled together, and he was shot dead in the palace on the spot by His Royal Highness King Qin!

For the essence behind this incident, these old foxes naturally know it well.

The one sitting above is ruthless. Of course, they came here to express their position at the first time.

Li Er looked down at the audience, had a panoramic view of everyone's expressions, and said expressionlessly: "Thank you, my lords, for coming to Qin's residence. I will accept the gift."

"let's start!"

Following Li Er's order, the banquet began.

A long line of maids walked in at the door, carrying all kinds of delicacies in their hands.

Then they were placed one by one on the small table of the officials present.

When these officials heard that Li Er was so polite, they all breathed a sigh of relief.

"I didn't expect the delicacies in His Highness's mansion to be so delicious. It's the first time for an official to eat them. I'm so lucky!"

"This delicious food, His Highness actually used it to entertain us, Your Highness is too polite!"

"Hey? Your Highness, why don't you see Mr. Xiao? Today he is the protagonist!"

Some officials just ate the dishes and praised them.

"Xiao'er is resting." Li Er replied lightly.

What he dislikes the most is flattery.

"So that's how it is, Mr. Xiao is a talented person, and I have someone who will succeed me in the Tang Dynasty!"

The man seemed to realize something after he finished speaking, his expression changed and he quickly shut up and sat down in a panic.

The scene was silent for a while.

There are successors, how can this be said casually.

However, Li Er's expression did not fluctuate in the slightest.

Li Chengqian's eyes flickered for a moment, not knowing what he was thinking.

Not long after, I don't know who took the lead, and the topic began to shift to Li Xiao.

"I heard that when the prince rebelled, Mr. Xiao controlled the whole situation by himself. I don't know if it's true or not."

"Wait! What are you talking about? It was Mr. Xiao who defeated the prince? How is this possible?"

"I can't believe it, but it's true!"

"I heard that Mr. Xiao is only five years old, even if he is extremely intelligent, how could he accomplish such a feat?"

"That's not known. I'm afraid only the person involved will know what happened that night."

"Amazing!"

"If the few incompetent members of my family have half the intelligence of Mr. Xiao, I will burn the incense."

……

At the same time, Li Xiao thought about it in the room, and couldn't sit still.

He must find the person who poisoned him immediately, otherwise things will change later.

With a gloomy face, Li Xiao went out without saying a word.

As soon as he went out, he found a figure.Standing at the gate of the courtyard, the waist is straight and meticulous.

"Uncle Li?"

Li Xiao looked at Li Junxian in surprise: "What are you doing standing at the door?"

"Young Master Xiao." Li Junxian said seriously, "This subordinate is your guard, and it is the subordinate's duty to guard the gate."

Hearing this, Li Xiao's eyes were thoughtful, and then he asked: "Uncle Li, where did you go in such a hurry yesterday?"

Li Junxian's expression tightened, and he said honestly: "This subordinate went to see His Royal Highness King Qin yesterday."

"Oh."

Li Xiao nodded and did not continue to ask further questions.

But in fact, this was all within his expectations.

He just told his father what he said last night, but he didn't expect Li Junxian to cooperate so much.

"Where is Mr. Xiao going? Do you need a carriage?"

Li Junxian quickly entered the status of a guard.

"Don't bother, go to the front hall!"

……

Not long after, Li Xiao brought Li Junxian to the front hall.

"Father!"

Li Xiao shouted, and found his seat next to Li Chengqian.

"Is this Mr. Xiao?"

"Unbelievable, this is too young!"

"It looks like it's really only five years old, it's unbelievable!"

The officials present had shock on their faces.

"Are you awake?" Li Erchao smiled slightly at Li Xiao, and then said, "You came just in time, and all the officials present are the court officials of my Tang Dynasty, why don't you come over and say hello!"

Chapter 10: I'm just a kid

Hearing this, Li Xiao immediately clasped his fists at many officials, and said with a smile: "Elders, eat and drink well, ask my father and king for it after eating, and you will definitely be full!"

Hearing this, the faces of the officials present were stiff.

This is said as if they came to beg for food.

Li Er's face turned dark.

He asked Li Xiao to go over to say hello, the purpose was to let Li Xiao get acquainted with the imperial court official more.

Otherwise, if there is any banquet, they will be driven away.

He can be described as painstaking.

But when it came to Li Xiao's place, he actually made such a move for him.

"Xiao'er! Watch your words!" Li Er said angrily.

"Father, I'm still just a child. As the saying goes, there is no limit to children's words. I don't think the elders will care about it."

After Li Xiao finished speaking, he showed his cute little canine teeth to the officials below.

Li Er: "..."
