Li Zhi, don't be a coward

Chapter 966
This year, the envoys from various countries congratulated the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty.

Of course, the most important reason is that Li Zhi ordered Li Qinzai to receive envoys from various countries, and Li Qinzai was the biggest unstable factor inside.

The situation seems to be chaotic, but as long as someone with a heart observes the result a little bit, he will be surprised to find that after the envoys of various countries fight each other, Datang has become the biggest winner.

Tubo's plan to destroy the Tang-Luo alliance went bankrupt, not only that, but also suffered a backlash. Not only were the Tubo envoys beaten twice, but with the finalization of the Tang Dynasty's Eastern Expedition strategy, Tubo will soon have to shrink its strategy and turn from offense to defense .

Not to mention Silla, in the eyes of Li Zhi and his courtiers who knew about it, Silla was already a half-dead country, and it would be their turn to be destroyed after the Great Tang destroyed Goguryeo.

At this time, the Silla Kingdom was still in the dark, happily planning how to gain benefits in the battle against Goguryeo in the Tang Dynasty, unaware that the sword of the Tang Dynasty was already on their necks.

As for the Wa Kingdom, after Li Qinzai promised to loosen the Wa royal family, the Wa Kingdom has gradually completed the transformation from a human to a dog, and has become more and more loyal.

Through Li Qinzai's joint operations among the envoys of various countries, Datang gradually completed the early stage of the Haidong strategy while preparing for the eastward expedition of food, grass and weapons.

As for the follow-up, there is no need for Li Qinzai to care about it anymore, someone from the court will take over all this.

At noon, Li Qinzai just woke up from the backyard of the Duke's Mansion, stretching his waist refreshed. After the servant girl helped him dress and wash, Butler Wu came to report that Wu Shaolang's family members had arrived, and the carriage had just arrived at the gate of the Duke's Mansion. stop before.

Li Qinzai was refreshed and rushed out to greet him.

In the front yard of the Duke's Mansion, Cui Jie and Jin Xiang were saluting Li Cuishi respectfully. Li Cuishi looked happy, holding a daughter-in-law with one hand, looking left and right, the more she looked, the happier she became.

The two daughters-in-law are both stunningly beautiful, and their personalities are equally gentle and generous. They are worthy of being raised by a wealthy family. Looking at the baby in Cui Jie's arms, Li Cuishi is even more joyful in her arms Li refused to let go.

Seeing Li Qinzai coming to the front yard, Cui Jie and Jin Xiang called her husband, Li Qinzai nodded with a smile, opened his arms, and hugged the two female colleagues into his arms.

The second daughter was so ashamed that she hurriedly broke free. Although they were husband and wife, they really couldn't accept intimacy in public.

Li Qinzai rolled his eyes, and then gave Jin Xiang a vicious look. Jin Xiang blushed, and immediately looked away, but the red roots behind her ears had already betrayed her mood.

Of course she understood the look in your husband's eyes just now. It must be another fierce battle tonight, which is about the lives and deaths of hundreds of millions of elite soldiers.

Old husband and wife, although separated for many days, there are not so many pretentious words when they meet, one look at each other, affection and desire, this is enough, the emotions that should be vented are reserved for the middle of the night when no one talks.

Turning around to pick up Qiao'er, Li Qinzai felt a little bit of difficulty, and couldn't help laughing: "Qiao'er seems to be getting heavier again, and Dad can hardly hold you anymore. What good food did you eat recently?"

Qiao'er giggled, and said, "It's almost Chinese New Year, and the uncles of the village household give the children something to eat every day, such as pork, venison, and salted and dried fish..."

"I'm afraid you won't be able to gain this weight by eating only meat. Tell the truth, did you steal fertilizer?" Li Qinzai scratched his armpits and laughed.

Qiao'er struggled while laughing: "No, haha, children don't eat fertilizer..."

Cui Jie pinched him hard, and said angrily, "Is it my own? How can a father say that his son stole fertilizer."

Li Qinzai gave her a blank look: "What do women know? This is our unique way of communication between father and son."

Qiao'er turned her head to look around, and asked curiously, "Father, where's the great-grandfather?"

"Great-grandfather is in the palace, he will be back soon, let's go, father will take you to the yard of great-grandfather, and see if we can do some damage..."

The father and son fled away.

Outside Li Ji's study in the backyard.

Li Qinzai and Qiao'er squatted in the open space, staring at the radiant growth in front of them in a daze.

"Father, didn't your great-grandfather like growing peonies? Why did you switch to radishes?" Qiao'er asked in confusion.

Li Qinzai grinned: "At the beginning, you and my father and son were of the same mind, and each of us took a pee, killing the peony. Your great-grandfather was probably desperate, so he changed to growing vegetables."

Qiao'er wondered, "Father also urinated on Peony?"

"I shouldn't ask this question. Dad is a mortal, so of course he has to eat, drink, and piss. What's wrong with peeing? I don't remember how many times I have pissed on peony. I didn't expect peony to be too delicate. As the saying goes, 'the void cannot be replenished' ..."

Qiao'er nodded again and again: "That's right, peony is too empty, radish is better, its skin is solid, not pretentious."

The father and son looked at each other, then stood up, and silently lifted the hem of their robes in unison...

Just as the flood gate was being protected against floods, there was a loud shout from behind: "You two bastards, stop this old man... Hold on, no matter where you live, get back to this old man!"

Li Qinzai and Qiao'er were shocked, but once the man opened the gate, it would be very difficult for him to retract, but Qiao'er was more clever. Hearing this, he immediately turned around, took a figure-of-eight gait, and ran away in the blink of an eye.

Li Qinzai was dumbfounded, he just acted in a fit of anger, how could this guy be so disrespectful, leaving his own father and running away alone?
There was a sudden cold war, Li Qin returned the magic soldier to its sheath, turned around and smiled at Li Ji: "Grandpa is back? So what... carrots are good, stewed mutton in winter is a great tonic."

Li Ji was furious, pointed at Li Qinzai and said angrily: "This old man is so humble that he grows radishes, you still refuse to let this old man go!"

"Grandpa's words are wrong, grandson kindly fertilized the radish..." Li Qinzai explained weakly.

Li Ji began to look around, Li Qinzai's eyelids twitched, this is really a crisis of life and death!

"Grandpa, wait a minute! Grandson is planning to discuss state affairs with you!"

"Well, after the old man beats you half to death, let the doctor rescue you while you discuss state affairs with the old man!" Li Ji strode towards Li Qinzai.

"Grandpa, my grandson is telling you something serious. The imperial court is about to march eastward. If grandpa is the commander in chief, my grandson is willing to join the army to share my worries!"

Li Ji paused, looked at the radishes in the field distressedly, took a deep breath, and tried to calm down his anger.

"Get into the study!" Li Ji said without turning his head.

Li Qinzai breathed a sigh of relief, and finally dealt with it.

Why is he so stingy when he is a famous general and the commander-in-chief of the three armies?
In the study, Li Ji and Li Qinzai sat opposite each other.

Li Ji didn't have a good face, looking at Li Qinzai's eyes sparkled with lightning.

"The old man and the generals stayed in the palace all night for the purpose of planning Haidong's strategy. You bastard came up with a random idea, which made His Majesty, the old man and others stay up all night. When I said it, the old man became angry and wanted to smoke. You have a meal!"

"Grandpa calm down, grandson is also serving the country, sharing the worries of the emperor, with all sincerity." Li Qinzai laughed with him, and calmly took away the inkstone, paperweight, and ink sticks from the desk, not giving them to the irritable empty-nest old man any chance of crime.
