Li Zhi, don't be a coward

Chapter 667

The whole family is a bit irritable, they will beat you to death every now and then, and they never worry about the issue of heirs. It seems that the Li family breeds like fish, with a litter of tens of thousands, without worrying about having no offspring.

Li Qinzai knew that he was not talking nonsense. If the new grain was finally confirmed to be true, and Datang decisively planted and promoted it, it would be a life-saving grace to the people and a great contribution to the Li family.

Seriously speaking, this contribution is greater than the expansion of territory and has a longer-lasting impact.

As long as the Li family doesn't risk their lives and pay close attention to Li Jingye's hidden rebel, the Li family will basically be valued by the emperors of all dynasties. He is old, and all kinds of benefits are paid until death.

In case of encountering a certain generation of genetic mutations, it is not impossible to become a king.

What happened was very simple, and Li Qinzai finished it in a few words.

Then the three people in the study fell into a long silence.

Li Qinzai was bored looking at the furnishings in the study, leaving enough time for them to digest.

Li Ji and Li Siwen were stunned. The movements of father and son stroking their beards froze.

"New grains? Are you sure it's new grains?" Li Ji's voice trembled slightly. He, who once commanded thousands of troops, couldn't help turning pale at this moment.

"Not sure, but it's worth the gamble." Li Qinzai said honestly.

There was no anger on Li Siwen's face anymore, he pondered for a moment, and said slowly: "According to what you said, that Hu merchant named Yi Duo is cunning, can you get this secret out of his mouth? Logically speaking, it is his The bargaining chip for life should not be revealed easily, right?"

Li Qinzai smiled: "Let's try and see if he can withstand various punishments. As long as he is not allowed to die, there is hope."

However, Li Ji thought more deeply: "Could it be that he is the only one in the world who knows the secret of the new grain? It doesn't make sense."

Li Qinzai shook his head: "Grandson understands what grandpa means, but if you want to trace the source of the matter, you must send someone to Tocharo to investigate secretly. It fell on Ido."

Li Ji nodded, and said: "No wonder you don't hesitate to offend Nestorianism and want to keep him. If this person really has the whereabouts of new grains, then the price of offending Nestorianism is worth it. For the sake of all living beings in Tang Dynasty not to starve and suffer, It doesn't matter if you go to hell, Qin Zai, you did the right thing!"

After speaking, Li Ji glanced at Li Siwen lightly.

Li Siwen understood the meaning in Li Ji's eyes, his expression suddenly blushed, and he still said stubbornly: "Although the matter was done right, but the method was still too drastic, you could have discussed it with Yang Shu'en until you got the secret out of that Yiduo's mouth , and then return the traitor to him, why bother to turn against him?"

Li Qinzai smiled wryly and said, "I think so too, but they will get rid of the traitors quickly and don't discuss with me at all. The knife is already on Yi Duo's neck. What can I do? I have to rescue him."

Li Siwen was stunned again, trying to find some faults in order to maintain his father's majesty.

Li Ji couldn't stand it anymore, pointed at him, and said: "You talk nonsense, don't blame the old man for slapping you in front of the child. Don't you know you rolled down the steps when I gave you the steps?"

Li Siwen was stunned, and immediately bowed his head and listened obediently.

Li Ji looked at Li Qinzai again, and said: "This is a good thing that benefits the country, the people, and the common people. Go ahead and do it. If there is any change in Yang Shuen, the old man will help you carry it. It depends on the British Duke's face than his Nestorian leader." Teach how."

Li Qinzai was moved and said: "Thank you, Grandpa."

"Go back and bring more parts. The other courtyard is on guard day and night. The old man is worried that Nestorian will jump over the wall in a hurry and will surprise and assassinate the other courtyard."

"Yes."

Seeing that Li Qinzai's expression was a bit wrong, Li Ji smiled gently, and said: "If things don't work out, no one will blame you. This matter is a gamble. If you win, you will lose. It doesn't matter if you lose. Do your best only if you lose. Don't be ashamed of heaven and earth, a man should be like this."

Li Qinzai smiled: "Grandson is leaving now. Here in Chang'an City, I have to thank Grandpa and Father for your support."

"Go to hell."

…………

Ganjingzhuang.

Cui Jie and Zi Nu were finally tired from wandering around the village for the past two days.

Zhuangzi is only this big, and it is far less prosperous than Chang'an City, so there is nothing to see if you walk around.

Li Qinzai was still explaining to the emperor and his family in Chang'an, but Zi Nu just woke up from the bed, covered his mouth lazily and yawned, but heard the voices of maids discussing outside the house.

Zi Nu blinked, and eavesdropped on the chatting of the maids through the window.

After hearing a few sentences, Zi Nu's expression changed.

The topic of the maids was not gossip, but about the Hu merchant named Yi Duo who was locked up in the remote West Room in the backyard.

Of course Zi Nu is very familiar with Yi Duo, and she saved Yi Duo's life.

When I heard that Yi Duo said something about new crops in a hurry to save his life, but after he was locked up, no matter how much Liu Asi tortured and interrogated, Yi Duo still refused to reveal this secret, Zi Nu's brows suddenly frowned. Wrinkled and tighter.

These few days I had a lot of fun with Cui Jie in the Zhuangzi, and Zi Nu didn't care about the man's business, so she didn't know that after she handed Yi Duo to Li Qinzai, it would cause so much trouble.

What he said when he rescued Yi Duo back then flashed in his mind.

Yi Duo said that he has one thing, which can make people get promoted.

At the beginning, no one took his words seriously, only thought that he was making up chips indiscriminately in order to survive.

However, thinking of Li Qinzai's dignified expression when he hurried back to Chang'an City today, Zi Nu had to come to a conclusion.

What this Yido said may be true.

Most of his so-called promotions are new grains that have never appeared in the Tang Dynasty. Only new high-yield grains will promote the people who get them, and Li Qinzai attaches so much importance to them.

As a princess of Loulan, she didn't care about the significance of new grains to the common people in the world.

But she cared if her man was in trouble.

Yi Duo was obviously Li Qinzai's trouble. From the maid's chat, it was obvious that Yi Duo was unwilling to recruit, and Li Qinzai must be very anxious since the whereabouts of the new grain had not yet been obtained.

"A new kind of grain? This Hu businessman really doesn't know how to flatter..." Zi Nu frowned and murmured.

Opening the door, Zi Nu's pretty face turned frosty, and she walked slowly towards the room where Yi Duo was imprisoned.

Protecting him in the past was just a matter of convenience, but you caused trouble for my man, and I don't mind turning against him, I will show you how powerful it is!
The house where Yi Duo was held was located in a remote area of ​​the Li family courtyard, and the house was very simple.

Liu Asi and several other performers stood guard at the door, seeing Zi Nu coming, Liu Asi and the others bowed and clasped their fists in salute.

Zi Nu raised his chin: "Open the door, I'll go in and have a few words with Yi Duo."
