Li Zhi, don't be a coward

Chapter 210 Returning triumphantly, the evil animal died

Leading the song into the city, there are no thousands of people cheering, no one celebrates Wang Shi's triumphant return, let alone eat pots of rice to welcome Wang Shi.

People in Chang'an City came and went, each running for their own livelihood. The Hu merchants who came from afar led their camels and walked carefully on the streets, always keeping a half-bow posture, as if they were ready to apologize at any time.

The guards patrolling the city walked slowly with their halberds in their hands, without squinting, and with a whip in their hands, when they encountered a barbarian caravan blocking the procession with their eyes closed, or foreigners who came to Chang'an to work for a living, they raised their hands and whipped them. After smoking, he didn't say a word, and continued to walk forward indifferently.

After Li Qinzai and Buqu's team entered the city, it was like dripping water into the sea, without causing any waves.

When the low-key and unobtrusive team went all the way to Zhuque Street, a military officer patrolling the city passed by Li Qinzai and his followers, and then suddenly said in surprise: "Your Majesty is the young master of the British government?"

Li Qinzai was taken aback for a moment, stopped and nodded subconsciously.

The military officer stepped forward in two steps and bowed to Li Qinzai: "Mr. Shaolang destroyed the country in the first battle. The villain congratulates Mr. Shaolang and his master Wang Shi on their triumphant return!"

The military attache's voice was very loud, which immediately attracted the attention and murmurs of passers-by.

"Who is the young master of the British government?"

"It's that young man."

"What did he do?"

"Haven't you heard? He destroyed the Wa country for the Tang Dynasty, and the shame of Jiangkou was wiped out."

"Oh, it's amazing! You've grown energetic! Heroes of the country and court, you and I should worship."

So, in the blink of an eye, Li Qinzai was surrounded by the crowd.

Following the military officer's salute, all the people in the crowd, whether they were ordinary merchants or soldiers from the city patrol, all saluted Li Qinzai and the Li family's trilogy.

The bustling Zhuque Street seemed to have stopped at this moment. People stood in awe, respectfully bowing to Li Qinzai, and did not get up for a long time.

A warm current surged in Li Qinzai's heart.

He doesn't care about the court's comments, he doesn't care about merits and demerits, but he really feels the feelings of family and country from the people, which is what he cares about.

Perhaps, it is this simple feeling that is the root cause of Datang's invincibility with troops.

What's not worth fighting for such a group of lovely people?
His clothes were dusty, but Li Qinzai still straightened his clothes and bowed to the crowd in return.

The Li family trilogy also pressed the knife and bowed together.

Then Li Qinzai looked at the military officer who recognized him, and said, "You knew me before?"

The military officer smiled and said: "Two years ago, Mr. Shaolang broke down a shop in Xishi. The villain was there at that time, so he recognized Mr. Shaolang."

Li Qinzai twitched the corner of his mouth, heh, what's none of my business?Two years ago, I was still working overtime at the company all night to change the plan, okay?

Luye Zanliang stood in the crowd, watching the people of Tang Dynasty salute Li Qinzai reverently, the scene where everyone respected Li Qinzai like a national scholar deeply hurt her eyes.

She was the only one out of place in the crowd.

Her delicate fists were inexplicably clenched, and her knuckles turned white with force.

At the age of 16, she is very conflicted at the moment.I don't know if I should avenge my country, or accept my fate willingly and become a servant by the side of this country-destroying enemy.

After saying goodbye to the crowd, while it was still dark, Li Qinzai hurried to the Ministry of War and handed over his military power to the officials of the Ministry of War.

After the inspection by the Ministry of War officials, they immediately saluted Li Qinzai with reverence.

The merit of destroying the Japanese kingdom has already spread to Chang'an City, and Li Qinzai did not expect that he has become popular in Chang'an City recently.

Since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, many countries have been conquered, but there are not many countries that have been destroyed in the true sense. In the past, the Turks and Xue Yantuo counted as two, the Gaochang country in the west counted as one, and the Baekje country in the east also counted. The demise of the Baekje was sloppy, and Liu Rengui is still in Baekje to wipe out the remnants.

Only Li Qinzai did a good job in destroying the Wa Kingdom, especially the speed and destructiveness. Wherever the Tang army went, the cities of the Wa Kingdom were basically reduced to ruins, with few exceptions. clean up.

Such a beautiful and straightforward feat of destroying the country, when the news reached Chang'an, it really attracted the attention of the monarchs, ministers and common people.

Now Chang'an court and the market are rumored, and the British Duke Li's family has inevitably become the talk of the people.

He is worthy of being the grandson of the British Duke, and he is worthy of being the son of a general. He thought that the Li family's three dynasties were lucky to be in the British Duke. After the British Duke, the Li family would inevitably decline.

With this battle, the luck of the Li family can last at least one more year.

Li Qinzai with a dazed face accepted the worship of the officials of the Ministry of War, handed over the official duties, and then sent Buqu to send Li Sujie back to Taiji Palace, and finally Li Qinzai led Buqu back to the mansion.

On the way back home, Li Qinzai's expression finally became disturbed.

He didn't care about the merit of destroying the Japanese country at all. He didn't destroy the Japanese country for meritorious service.

But Li Qinzai only remembered that he had violated the order and changed the waterway to land in Japan without authorization. The violation of the military order can be big or small.

No matter how much meritorious service he has made, he was at fault first, especially since his grandfather was a famous general who disliked those who disobeyed military orders. He didn't know what would happen after returning home...

When he was still a mile or two away from the British residence, Li Qinzai suddenly stopped and said to Liu Asi, "Take off the armor on your body and put it on for me."

Liu Ah Si was taken aback for a moment, then smiled knowingly, and took off the armor happily, not only that, but also put an extra piece of leather armor on Li Qinzai's buttocks.

"Hey, Wu Shaolang, don't forget to cover your head when you go home and get beaten. Also, run away first, run into the garden in the backyard, where the bushes are dense, and it's hard to be found if you lie down." Si reminded with a smile.

Li Qinzai patted him on the shoulder emotionally: "A good man will live a safe life."

…………

When they came outside the gate of the British government, the Buqu on duty outside the gate had already recognized them, and immediately greeted them quickly, and saluted when they met.

"Congratulations to Wu Shaolang on his triumphant return to the manor! The Great Tang Dynasty is victorious!" The trilogy members shouted in unison.

Li Qinzai also returned the salute with a smile, and then looked anxiously at the towering lintel of the British residence.

"Hey, is grandpa asleep yet?" Li Qinzai asked in a low voice, dragging a fellow.

Part [-] was stunned: "Wu Shaolang, it's not dark at this time, how can the old man fall asleep?"

Li Qinzai said disappointedly: "Don't they say that the old man who lives alone in an empty nest sleeps a lot? Why is he so energetic?"

Bu Qu said in a low voice: "My old man has been waiting in the front hall for a long time when he heard that Wu Shaolang returned to the mansion."

Li Qinzai didn't move.

Others are timid because of the feeling of being close to the hometown, but Li Qinzai is afraid of being close to the hometown.

After pondering for a long time, Li Qinzai suddenly said to Liu Asi: "Why don't you cover me with a white cloth and carry me in, pretending that I have died for the country, and what you bring back is my dead body... You can also eat a piece of cake by the way." seat."

Liu Ahsi said with a dark face: "Fifth Young Master, don't make trouble! Even if it is a corpse, the old man will whip the corpse."

Li Qinzai sighed, checked his armor again, then opened the side door and entered.

As soon as he stepped through the door, Li Qinzai's eyelids twitched.

In the middle of the courtyard, Li Ji held his long horse lance in one hand and stroked his long beard with the other, like a statue of Guan Erye, standing in the courtyard with a horizontal knife, staring at him with murderous intent.

Li Qinzai stood there blankly for a moment, then suddenly remembered that there was something he hadn't done, so he turned around and left.

"Come on, close the door!" Li Ji yelled violently.

Before he could step over the threshold, the side door slammed shut.

The one who closed the door was an old acquaintance, butler Wu Tong.

After closing the door, Wu Tong gave him an apologetic look.Before fleeing from the battlefield, Wu Tong still did not forget the etiquette, and hurriedly saluted, "Congratulations to Wu Shaolang on his triumphant return."

After finishing speaking, he ran away with his head in his arms.

Li Qinzai gritted his teeth, why do you call this attitude of closing the door and beating dogs "congratulations"?
Had to turn around and face Li Ji, Li Qinzai realized that there were quite a few guests in the mansion today.

Li Jihengdao immediately stood in the yard, but there were many familiar figures under the front corridor, Su Dingfang, Liang Jianfang, Xue Rengui...

They were all famous generals of the dynasty, and all the famous generals stood in the porch with smiles and looked at the grandparents and grandchildren, without any intention of persuading and appeasing them, just plainly watching the excitement.

Li Qinzai smiled wryly, swallowed his saliva, and saluted from a distance: "Grandpa, please listen to my explanation first..."

Li Ji moved, and the horse in his hand danced in a semi-circle in mid-air, and stroked his beard with the other hand: "Wow! The old man won't listen! The evil animal will die!"

After finishing speaking, Ma Qian swept away towards Li Qinzai with the force of wind and thunder.

Li Qinzai's eyelids twitched, he turned and ran.

Not running away at this time is not only a grandson, but also a fool.

Fortunately, before entering the door, he humbly accepted Liu Ahsi's suggestion, and Li Qinzai ran towards the backyard garden without saying a word.

Li Ji picked up Ma Qian and chased after him, and a group of unscrupulous veterans in the front hall cheered and applauded.

When General Li returned home triumphantly, the treatment he received was so unpretentious and boring.
