Chapter 915
Li Zheng picked up a piece of lettuce, wrapped it with the cooked barbecue and ate it, "General Su Dingfang, it's more refreshing to eat like this, and it doesn't look greasy."

Su Dingfang still didn't touch the barbecue, but frowned and said, "Didn't your majesty mean to rush to help Tubo?"

"The soldiers and horses in the court are not sent out for nothing. The food, grass and military pay needed to send troops are not given to Tubo for nothing. Some of the price is paid by Tubo." Li Zheng brushed a layer of oil on the iron plate while talking. .

"So Tubo has been giving money to Chaozhong?"

"General Su Dingfang thinks how much money Tubo can give to pay our army's food and pay?" Li Zheng shook the cattail fan in his hand and said, "If you come out to mess around, you have to pay it back!"

"You have to pay it back when you come out to hang out." Su Dingfang took a deep breath, "Chang'an Ling's words really hit people's hearts."

"I am over-flattered."

"If Tubo doesn't have enough money to pay our military pay, Tubo can only use other things as collateral. If the war is not over for a day, the burden on Tubo will be even greater." Su Dingfang said.

Li Zheng nodded slightly, "Day after day, these accounts are kept in mind."

Su Dingfang said again: "Now it's day after day, if one day, what will happen?"

Li Zheng smiled awkwardly.

Su Dingfang nodded and looked at the barbecue on the iron plate.

After a long silence, Li Zheng smiled, "That's what I said, but it still takes time and effort to do it. Right now, I still have to block the big cannibals. As long as Tubo takes over the territory of the Central Plains, there will be no more wars in the west of the Central Plains."

Su Dingfang cupped his hands towards Li Zheng, "Thank you for telling me, I roughly understand what I'm going to do when I go to Tubo."

Li Zheng turned over the barbecue and said, "I really don't eat barbecue."

Su Dingfang smiled awkwardly, "It is said that you, Li Zheng, are pampered and pampered at a young age, and you are so particular about eating."

Li Zheng ate a piece of barbecue, "Actually, the barbecue cooked in this way has a special flavor."

Su Dingfang picked up a piece of barbecue from the iron plate and put it in his mouth, "Thank you for the hospitality, I will take my leave first."

After speaking, Su Dingfang turned around and left.

Li Zheng looked at the iron plate. The meat on the iron plate was roasted until it was sizzling. The temperature was so high, what a ruthless iron hand.

And General Su Dingfang probably didn't wash his hands.

Too careless.

Su Dingfang went to defend against Tubo, and the soldiers and horses in Guanzhong may often be stationed in Tubo for a long time.

Biting the lettuce, Li Zheng looked up into the distance, took a sip of hot tea and sighed.

Three days after Su Dingfang left Guanzhong with his soldiers and horses, Li Zheng was sitting at the gate of his yard.

Xu Jingzong came in a hurry, "Chang'an Order, Your Majesty is here."

Li Zheng took out a handful of dates and said, "Eat some dates?"

"Thank you." Xu Jingzong took the dates and ate them and said, "Your Majesty has already entered the village."

Li Zheng ate the dates and said: "He comes whenever he likes, and I can't stop His Majesty that day."

Xu Jingzong nodded slightly, and sat aside and said in a low voice: "I heard that Chang'an ordered that Wang Qiaoer, the daughter of the Wang Patriarch, be brought into Jingyang."

Hearing this, Li Zheng nodded and looked at Xu Jingzong suspiciously.

Seeing Li Zheng's tangled expression, Xu Jingzong said again: "But Chang'an Order is the same as us, everyone understands."

Li Zheng looked at Xu Jingzong and said, "What do you understand?"

Xu Jingzong nodded and said: "Chang'an Ling is the Duke of the county and holds a high position. It is outrageous not to have a concubine. Now Chang'an Ling's reputation in Chang'an is much better."

"What review?"

Li Zheng asked, shaking the fan in his hand.

Clearing his throat again, Xu Jingzong said: "Before the Chang'an Order only had princesses, but no concubines. So many dignitaries in Chang'an are saying that the Chang'an Order is outrageous."

Li Zheng felt more and more wrong.

Xu Jingzong said again: "Now that the Chang'an Order has brought Wang Qiaoer, the daughter of the Wang family, into Jingyang, it is obvious that sooner or later she will become the concubine of the Chang'an Order. In this way, there will be a lot less discussion about the Chang'an Order."

"is it?"

"really."

Xu Jingzong said solemnly.

Just as Li Shimin was talking, he was almost approaching.

Xu Jingzong stood up and saluted, "I pay my respects to Your Majesty."

Li Shimin nodded towards Xu Jingzong, and then looked at Li Zheng, "I am busy with state affairs every day, and sometimes I envy your leisurely and elegant life."

Li Zheng stood up and saluted Li Shimin slightly.

Li Shimin said: "Take a step to speak?"

Li Zhenghe gave a few instructions to the servants in the yard, and then led Li Shimin to the stables.

Normally, people in the village would not take the initiative to go to the stables. The horses in the stables were all for the soldiers in the army.

Li Shimin looked at the strong horses and said: "This horse is really well-raised."

Li Zheng said melancholy: "There are always more war horses going out here, and few coming back. Once the army sets out, many war horses will not come back."

Seeing Li Shimin's strange eyes, Li Zheng said again: "It's just touching the scene, don't take offense, Your Majesty, I'm kinder."

Li Shimin smiled helplessly, "Are you kind? There are no kind people in this world. Are there still few people who are ruined by Li Zheng's methods?"

Having said this, Li Shimin's face darkened a lot, "Don't say that you and I are kind."

Li Zheng let out a long sigh.

Li Shimin added: "The weapons business has been stagnant for the past six months."

Li Zheng said to Li Shimin: "The battle always has to be over. In fact, after the death of the Western Turks, the weapon business has come to an end, but now the business is all about some nobles in the Western Regions and some small countries west of the Western Regions to buy weapons. That's all."

"The weapons of the Tang Dynasty are not worried about selling. The Western Turks swept Tubo and the East Turks back then was the best advertisement for our weapons in Guanzhong. Everyone knows that our weapons of the Tang Dynasty are good. With our weapons of the Tang Dynasty, we can look down on everyone. .”

Halfway through the speech, Li Zheng sneered and said, "In fact, weapons are just weapons. They just know that weapons are good. What they don't know is that the most important thing is wisdom."

"Wisdom." Li Shimin nodded persuasively, "Three thousand Yuejia can swallow Wu, defeat the many with the few, and defeat the strong with the weak. There are too many stories like this in the Central Plains. The most important thing in these stories is wisdom."

"I heard that you have a new way of eating barbecue here?"

"Your Majesty's news is really well-informed."

Li Shimin sat down and said: "It's rare for me to have such leisure and elegance, why do you let me sit like this?"

Li Zheng said to Duhu beside him, "Light the stove and bring it here."

Duhu nodded and went to work.

A small clay stove, a one-foot-wide iron plate is placed on the clay stove, just like this.

The method is very simple.

After waiting for the iron plate to heat up, Li Zheng brushed the iron plate with oil and put pieces of meat on it.

Li Shimin watched Li Zheng's movements and said, "It's indeed a very novel way of eating.
