Li Zhi, don't be a coward

Chapter 444 The sky is gray, people are gray

A person who can be valued by Li Shimin, serve as the prince's attendant, and can also enter the Hongwen Museum as a bachelor, no matter whether he is a good person or a bad person, he has some talent after all.

Lectures and assignments are just basic operations for Li Jingxuan. After studying the scriptures for many years, if he can't even do this little thing well, he is really ashamed of the hardships of these years.

In the evening, Li Sujie came to the other courtyard and ate a meal at Li Qinzai's house with a playful smile. Before the food was served, Li Sujie's expression suddenly became serious.

"Sir, that new doctor has some tricks..." Li Sujie sighed.

Li Qinzai picked up a chicken leg and put it into Qiao'er's bowl, ignored Li Sujie's words, and instead asked, "Do you eat chicken legs?"

Li Sujie shook his head subconsciously, but Li Qinzai quickly put another chicken leg into Qiao'er's bowl, stroked his head and said softly: "Eat more chicken legs, and you will grow taller than Dad in the future. I don't ask you to beat it all over." Invincible in the world, it is not a big problem to clean up the brothers in the school."

Qiao'er happily gnawed on the chicken leg, and nodded.

Li Sujie opened his mouth: "..."

Li Qinzai's eyes fixed on the most tender and thornless belly of a plate of braised fish on the table again. Just as he opened his mouth to ask a question, Li Sujie was smart this time and responded quickly: "Sir, my disciple eats fish."

Li Qinzai quickly stretched out his chopsticks with sharp eyesight, picked up the most tender piece of fish first, and put it into Qiao'er's bowl.

Li Sujie's chopsticks froze in mid-air, staring dumbfounded at the picture of father's kindness and son's filial piety.

Li Qinzai glanced at him indifferently: "Who is his own and who is raised in the wild, don't you know anything about it?"

Li Sujie put down her chopsticks and sighed sadly, obviously she came to Mr.'s house with a happy mood to have a meal, why is she in such a humble and lost mood at this moment?
Suddenly lost his appetite, Li Sujie simply stopped eating, and said: "Sir, you have to pay attention, the new Dr. Li has a way of winning people's hearts, and he really has some skills in listening to his lectures, and the brothers are all attracted , this disciple thinks that this Dr. Li has a plan..."

Li Qinzai stuffed a piece of chicken breast into his mouth, and said vaguely, "What is he trying to do? He wants me to give him a promotion and a raise?"

Seeing that Li Qinzai still didn't care, Li Sujie became anxious: "Sir, don't forget that he was sent by the empress. Maybe he won the hearts of the students in order to evade you. From now on, he will have the final say in the school. Then What is Mr. Shi doing with himself?"

Li Qinzai sneered: "Did you really treat us as meat and potatoes? If he can really pass me off, I'll be thankful. Why do you think I'm willing to teach you idiots?"

"I didn't want to teach at first, but your father insisted that I pass on my knowledge, and in the blink of an eye, he conjured up dozens of idiot students for me. I didn't dare to violate the order, so I had to forcefully teach you. If Li Jingxuan can pass on this Take the hot potato, I wish for it."

Seeing Li Sujie's expressionless face, Li Qinzai added: "The dozens of idiot students I mentioned include you, Your Highness the Fourth Prince."

"You see, I never speak ill of others behind my back. I always speak ill of others face to face. You have to learn from me for such a precious quality."

Li Sujie asked anxiously: "Master, don't you really care? Li Jingxuan is not a good person. If it goes on for a long time, if he is the master of the school, the disciples and others will be so cruel."

Li Qinzai sighed: "If I have no morals, others cannot use morals to kidnap me. In the same way, if I have no ambitions for power, others cannot use power to threaten me."

Li Sujie immediately sighed in disappointment, he knew that he could not persuade his husband to fight for him.

When a salted fish puts on a bad posture and refuses to turn over, others can only obey his wishes and hang him under the eaves, so that he can enjoy the years in peace.

After a tasteless meal, Li Sujie bid farewell and left.

Li Qinzai went out with Qiao'er and took a walk after dinner to digest food.

As the sun set, the figures of the father and son were dragged long by the golden setting sun.

When he reached the west end of the village, Qiao'er suddenly raised his finger and pointed not far away, and said, "Father, isn't that Dr. Li?"

Li Qinzai looked up and saw that Li Jingxuan was wearing a blue round-neck gown and black gauze scarf, sitting on the edge of the field, and Xu Ziran was sitting next to him.

The two talked and laughed, looking up at the golden setting sun from time to time, while chatting about their hearts, they seemed not to forget to express their life emotions such as the infinite beauty of the setting sun.

Li Qinzai took a look, then quickly looked away, and continued to lead Qiao'er forward.The father and son walked slowly along the field ridge in the countryside. Qiao'er held his hand, bouncing around restlessly, stretching out his short legs from time to time, and kicking the toad on the road into the field. The scene is very warm.

A few grains of wheat were left on the road in the countryside, most of which fell on the ground from the autumn harvest farmers a few days ago. Li Qinzai leaned over to pick up these grains and held them in his hand.

Qiao'er followed suit, awkwardly bent over to pick up the wheat grains on the ground, picked them up and put them in Li Qinzai's hands.

After a long time, Qiao'er tiptoed to look at Li Jingxuan not far away, and suddenly asked, "Father, is that Dr. Li a bad guy?"

Li Qinzai organized his wording, and said: "No one in the world can use 'good guy' or 'bad guy' to judge him. Everyone in the world is gray. Everyone has a kind and benevolent side, and also has an ulterior dark side."

Qiao'er was puzzled and said, "But I haven't done anything ulterior, I'm not gray."

Li Qinzai smiled: "You are still young, when you grow up, you will inevitably do some dark things, each of us is no exception, there is no perfect saint in the world."

Qiao'er nodded with a half understanding.

Turning her head to look at Li Jingxuan who was not far away, Qiaoer blinked, and skillfully took out a slingshot from her bosom, picked up a small stone, pulled the bow, and aimed...

Before Li Qinzai, who was astonished, could stop him, the little stone shot out with a whoosh, aiming at Li Jingxuan who was not far away.

Hearing a scream, Li Jingxuan immediately fell down, covering his head and rolling all over the ground, howling.

Xu Ziran, who was next to Li Jingxuan, was terrified. An assassin was ambushed in the quiet and peaceful village. Xu Ziran was out of his wits. His first reaction was not to check Li Jingxuan's injuries, but to lie down on the spot, covering his head with his hands tightly, looking for cover.

Li Qinzai's eyelids twitched, and he dragged Qiao'er into the grass by the roadside without hesitation. The father and son quickly squatted down, observing the situation secretly in fear.

Seeing more and more farmers surrounding Li Jingxuan, Li Qinzai breathed a sigh of relief, and then glared at Qiao'er viciously.

"Why hurt people for no reason?" Li Qinzai said angrily.

Qiao'er said blankly: "Father said just now that everyone is gray and will do some dark things. Qiao'er has never done it, so how can he be tolerated by the world? So Qiao'er is going to do something bad, and there happens to be a person in front of him. You don't have to be polite."

Li Qinzai was dumbfounded: "..."

Li Jingxuan's screams were still heard, now is not the time to teach the children, Li Qinzai said with a serious face: "Bend down and go around the road, let's leave first."

The father and son quietly left the scene of the crime with their waists bowed and their posture concealed. They walked around the Wei River before stopping, and finally walked back to the other courtyard as if nothing had happened.
