Chapter 56 Tribute
Li Tai quickly put the lid on the pot.

Li Lizhi walked into the room and said, "Father said... Huh? What's the smell?"

Li Tai forced a smile and said, "It's nothing, let's go out and talk."

He smelled Li Lizhi again and said, "It's so fragrant."

Smelling the aroma of the meat, Li Lizhi turned her attention to a small pot on the table, opened the lid of the pot and said in surprise, "Yeah! It's actually meat!"

"This one……"

Before Li Tai could say anything, Li Lizhi had already picked up a piece of meat and ate it in his mouth.

"Delicious." Li Lizhi nodded.

Li Tai stared at it for a while speechless, "Well, it's not good to eat other people's food casually."

Li Lizhi grinned, "What kind of meat is this?"

The servant of the Wei Wang mansion replied, "Back to Princess Changle, this is pork."

As soon as the words fell, Li Tai kicked this self-righteous servant away. He had never eaten pork since he was a child, and maybe he didn't know it at all.

Li Tai explained: "Actually, it was sent by Li Zheng. You know it, and it's not easy for me to refuse his kindness."

Li Lizhi recalled, "So pork is so delicious."

"Yes... yes."

Li Li sighed: "In fact, pork is also meat, and sometimes I really don't understand why meat should be divided into high and low."

From the time I can remember, in Li Tai's impression, Li Lizhi is very smart, and her smartness is not in those calculations.

There is also stubbornness in her heart, but Li Lizhi will put herself in the shoes of others, and she is also the child of her father and mother.

Li Lizhi is more humble and understanding.

I will also understand the difficulties behind my father and mother.

Li Tai remembers that when he was a child, he often competed with the prince for toys.

Li Lizhi often gave up her own toys to avoid quarreling with the prince.

If it weren't for her, presumably the relationship between him and the prince would be worse now.

From childhood to adulthood, in the eyes of her father and mother, she was the most sensible one.

It is also the one that brings everyone together the most among all the younger siblings.

Following Li Tai out of the room, Li Lizhi said, "My father asked me to ask, what happened to Kuo Dizhi."

"It's still early. Cen Wenwen said that he would collect the summaries from various places first. How can it be so fast, is the royal father urging again?"

"Not really, just mentioned, you can hurry up and don't make things worse." Li Lizhi urged.

"Got it." Li Tai nodded.

"Zhi Li and the current Tuli Khan Ashna Shibbi of Xue Yantuo are going to pay tribute this year. The Crown Prince has already made preparations, but the emperor has not said who will preside over this matter."

"Thank you, Sister Huang, for letting me know." Li Tai bowed slightly.

Although Li Lizhi said it was inappropriate to intervene in government affairs, her father often took her by his side, and some news would be notified to him immediately.

A tacit understanding has also been formed over the years.

Li Lizhi also instructed: "If the father and the emperor intends to arrange the emperor's brother, you must never fight with the emperor's brother again, and you know that the two of you brothers must be doing bad things behind their backs."

Li Tai touched his nose, "As long as the prince doesn't do anything wrong, neither will I."

Since the Jieli Khan was captured alive by Li Jing and the Turkic Tooth Court was destroyed, now the entire Turks are in chaos.

The various tribes fought with each other. The original stubborn power of thinking now wants to become a khan. Ashnashibbi is also the tribal chief of the Turkic royal family named Xue Yantuo. Jieli is Ashnashibbi's uncle. .

Now Ashina Shibabi leads the Xue Yantuo tribe and the stubborn people to fight on the grasslands.

Both want to fight for a new khan's place.

After Li Shimin divided them to divide Jie Li, the two never stopped.

They are fighting and fighting, and the DPRK and China are happy to see them, and they are even more unwilling to see which one of them is dominant on the grassland.

The hotter the fight, the more bloody the best.

This time the two of them wanted to pay tribute because they wanted Datang to pull the sidelines.

"What is Li Zheng doing recently?" Li Lizhi asked suddenly.

"What else can he do, farm the land and build a house."

"Ow."

Li Lizhi nodded, picked up the bowl of pork and said, "The mother is pregnant again. I will give this bowl of broth to the mother, and you are not allowed to eat meat secretly in the future."

Li Tai emphasized: "That's pork."

Li Lizhi still took it away.

Li Tai stomped his feet anxiously, it was over, it was over... If my father and mother knew that I was eating pork, I would have to scold me.

"Why can't I keep my mouth shut!"

Li Tai wanted to give himself a slap, but withdrew his hand and sighed: "Alas..."

Second day

Li Tai came to Jingyang County and said to Li Zheng, "It's all your fault!"

"Do you blame me for everything?" Li Zheng said while eating peanuts.

"what are you eating?"

"Peanuts, do you want to eat?"

Li Tai took a few pills and ate them, "Is there any more?"

Li Zheng pointed to the jar aside, "Take it yourself."

Li Tai took the jar and ate peanuts one by one, and he couldn't stop eating them.

Jingyang County is building roads again, and every trail in the village is not spared. It is approaching the slack season, and many people who are idle are used to build roads.

Li Zheng looked at the road construction and asked, "What are you looking for from me?"

Eating peanuts, Li Tai pondered, "What am I looking for from you?"

"It's all you. Now my father and mother may know that I stole pork."

"What does it have to do with me when you eat pork."

Li Tai thought about it carefully, "That's right, but I am Meng Lang."

"What are you looking for me for?"

Li Tai recalled it for a while and said, "Instinct and Ashina on the Turkic grasslands are coming to Chang'an to pay tribute."

Li Zheng took the peanuts in Li Tai's hand, grabbed a handful and ate it.

"This matter is because of you. The Yinshan strategy you gave will have the current situation. They fought on the grasslands and strived to have only one khan on the grasslands. Now that there are two on the grasslands, do you think it will be peaceful? ?"

"It's pulling a side frame."

Li Tai nodded: "Not bad."

The peanuts really went up, and the mouth was dry after eating too much. Li Tai picked up the water bag on the side and took a sip of water to moisten his mouth, "Why is it hot water."

"I don't drink raw water."

Hearing about Li Zheng's problems, Li Tai muttered, "Poverty is exquisite."

Li Zheng took the water bag in Li Tai's hand, "You know what this is called hygiene."

"I heard that people in Jingyang County don't drink raw water,"

"So very few people in our Jingyang County have stomach troubles."

"Really? Is there such a thing as this?"

"If you don't believe me, go and find out."

"The matter on the grassland, what should you do in the end?" Li Tai pulled the words back again.

Li Zheng didn't think too much and said: "What else can we do, let them continue to fight, let's send food to one side and weapons to the other side, let them fight hard, fight heartily, fight dizzy, let's sit and watch lively"
