Li Zhi, don't be a coward

Chapter 211

The chickens fly and the dogs jump, coaxing everyone to be filial.

The grandfather and grandson chased for a long time, until Li Qinzai noticed that Li Ji's breathing was getting heavier, so he slowed down on purpose, and let Li Ji catch him, and beat him several times with a horse.

"It's promising, huh? You dared to disobey the military order for the first time and mobilize troops without authorization. Do you know how serious the violation is in the army?" Li Ji said angrily.

Li Qinzai nodded: "I know, my grandson was impulsive, and I promise not to dare next time."

Li Ji stared: "Do you dare to have a next time?"

Li Qinzai sighed.

Why does everyone, after hearing the words "don't dare next time", always follow up with the next sentence "dare to have a next time"?
Did you fail the language test when you were young? "Don't dare next time" means, of course, there will be no next time. What's the point of following this sentence?Lever fine?

Li Qinzai rubbed his butt, fortunately Liu Ah Si put an extra piece of leather armor on his butt, otherwise Li Ji's slaps would have killed him.

"Grandpa, about the grandson's violation of orders, the court..." Li Qinzai hesitated to speak.

Li Ji sneered: "Are you worried now? What did you do when you violated the order?"

"Grandson was a little over the top at the time..." Li Qinzai blinked: "Isn't it likely that he was beheaded? Although Suner was the first, he almost wiped out the Wa Kingdom. Such a large piece of land is in the hands of Datang. If the merits and demerits are equal,...a one-year salary?"

Li Ji laughed angrily: "You and His Majesty have a good understanding, and His Majesty also said so at that time."

Li Qinzai said happily: "Is it true that the fine is only one year's salary?"

"You are so beautiful! Even if His Majesty is partial, will the courtiers let you go? The current court is a bit uneasy. Two years ago, His Majesty fell ill, and Empress Wu wrote the review on her behalf. Unknowingly, she has won over a group of courtiers." People's hearts, it's hard to say whether someone will use this to make a fuss."

Li Qinzai frowned: "Li Yifu?"

"It's not just Li Yi's mansion, there are many people. Li Yi's mansion is actually honest. After the turmoil of your ennobling last time, he was severely beaten by His Majesty and the Empress. He might not dare to stand up for a year or so."

Li Qinzai smiled: "As long as His Majesty does not have any suspicions against me, I will be safe. No matter how many courtiers impeach me, I will not lose a piece of meat."

Li Ji hummed, and said: "That's the truth, but if there are too many people joining you, His Majesty will not be able to stop you, and you will be punished to some extent. You should be prepared."

Li Qinzai said with a wry smile: "Grandson thought that with the merits of destroying the country, maybe he could be rewarded as a Jinjue. Wouldn't it be beautiful to be promoted from a county son to a county marquis?"

Li Ji sneered: "You just reincarnated well, disobeyed the military order, mobilized thousands of soldiers without authorization, and did not obey the order to deploy weapons. It is a great crime. If you change someone else, you will be killed before the battle. You belong to the British Duke." Grandson, let you return to Chang'an whole, and you still want to be promoted?"

Li Qinzai sighed.

He knows how serious a crime it is to disobey military orders in this day and age. Li Ji's words are not exaggerating. Military power is very sensitive. Mobilizing troops without authorization is definitely a serious crime of beheading. He was able to return to Chang'an alive because of the British Duke's face. .

Fortunately, Li Qinzai had no interest in official titles. His current official titles were given to him by Li Zhiqiang, and it didn't matter if he wanted them or not.

Turning his head and looking in the direction of the front hall, Li Qinzai said: "Grandpa beat up grandson, grandson has nothing to say, but what happened to those veterans? Just beat up grandson, there is no need to invite them to watch the ceremony, right?"

Li Ji was stunned: "Watch... watch the ceremony?"

"Asshole, why did the old man invite them here, don't you know?"

"Please teach me, Grandpa."

Li Ji snorted, and said: "In front of them, the old man beat you up today, and tomorrow the court will know that you were beaten up when Li Qinzai just returned to Chang'an."

"In the eyes of the monarch and his ministers, you have already been taught by the old man. If the courtiers still want to visit you, they will show some sympathy, and the punishment for you will not be so severe, understand? It has lost the face and weight of the British Duke."

Li Qinzai was full of admiration, he was indeed a cunning and cunning old fox, with a precise calculation.

Li Ji estimated the time, and said in a deep voice: "Let's go, follow the old man to the front hall, and meet all the veterans....Stupid, can't you pretend to be good? Walk with a limp and drag your feet on the ground."

Li Qinzai instantly became a handicapped person, limping and dragging on the ground, and his appearance of being physically disabled and strong-willed was especially poignant.

"Grandpa, how are you doing?"

Li Ji had no choice but to praise: "You are so wonderful, you were born with a lame leg."

Not daring to argue with the empty-nest old man, Li Qinzai pretended not to hear, and walked with a limp like a tiger.

After walking a few steps, Li Ji suddenly stopped him, and there was a little different color in his eyes.

"Qin Zai, you did a good job in destroying the Japanese kingdom. At your age, I can't do your feats."

"If you follow orders, you should be Marquis of Jin County this time, unfortunately..."

"However,... the Li family is very lucky."

Li Ji suddenly smiled, and the smile was full of relief.

He is old and can't bear the burden of the whole family. Fortunately, the Li family has successors.

…………

The grandfather and grandson walked slowly towards the front hall. Li Ji walked in front with his head held high, like a general returning from a triumphant return. Li Qinzai limped behind, dejected, like an enemy prisoner who had just been beaten up by a victorious general who violated the Treaty of Geneva. .

Walking to the front hall, a group of veterans were still standing under the pillars outside the hall, looking at them happily.

Li Ji sighed angrily, and forced a smile towards everyone: "The family is unlucky, I made everyone laugh."

Su Dingfang stroked his beard and said with a smile: "I don't see laughter, I don't see laughter. It's rare to see such a lively scene. Today's trip is worthwhile."

Li Qinzai looked up at Su Dingfang, and silently pulled him into his blacklist.

Liang Jianfang smiled even more gloatingly: "The Li family's family style is really extraordinary, and the children and grandchildren will be more successful as they fight. If they make up their minds and cripple their legs, they will definitely be appointed as ministers in the future. This old man has learned."

Li Qinzai silently blocked Liang Jianfang...

Later, when I met these two descendants in Chang'an City, I beat them up first. Li Qinzai reckoned that his prestige in the dandy circle of Chang'an City should have improved qualitatively because of his achievements in destroying the country.

Xue Rengui was still kind, and smiled reservedly: "If I knew that my nephew would make such a commotion when he went to Baekje, I should also kick my dog ​​to Baekje. It would be a disadvantage to accompany my nephew with the army. Maybe you can get some military merits."

Su Dingfang smiled and said: "Rengui can be misunderstood, what kind of character and what to do, if your dog goes to Baekje, he may not have the courage of Jingchu, tsk! Lost in the sea fog, and accidentally landed on Wa Island, Haha, how did you come up with such a nonsense?"

Li Qinzai explained weakly: "There was really heavy fog, and the Sinan vehicles on the battleship couldn't work, so I lost my way....I was terrified at the time."

Su Dingfang laughed: "Okay, it's right to kill you and not admit it. Once you admit it, it will be a serious crime, and His Majesty can't even protect you."

Li Ji said angrily: "The evil beast has not repented! The hall is full of veterans, don't show off your tricks, it's embarrassing!"

However, Xue Rengui sighed and said enviously: "Your nephew is indeed a great talent. It is so difficult to destroy the country. Although we have gone through hundreds of battles, it is difficult for us to have the opportunity to destroy the country in our lifetime. You, a child in his twenties, bumped into him." It's..."

Su Dingfang showed a look of arrogance and pretending to be reserved, stroked his beard and smiled and said: "I am not talented, and I have also destroyed the country."

Everyone in the hall, except Li Ji, groaned in dissatisfaction.

Li Qinzai also wanted to snort angrily, but he didn't dare.

Su Dingfang is not exaggerating. This old man has indeed destroyed a country. There is a comment on him in the history books, "The three countries were destroyed before and after, and the master was captured alive."
