Man Tanghong

Chapter 360
Yin Qiao followed up generously: "If there is anything I can do for you, please give your Highness instructions."

Li Yuanji chuckled, "I thought you two stopped me to interrogate me."

Yin Qiao was taken aback for a moment.

Qu Tutong was embarrassed.

In the past, Li Yuanji treated him with courtesy, but now he is very rude to him.

Why this is so, he also knows in his heart.

It's just that he has already decided to stand with Li Shimin, so there is no way to retreat bravely.

He can use the excuse of old age and frailty to retreat to the border to be a guard.

But how did his children retreat?

"Speaking of which, why are you here?"

Li Yuanji asked Qu Tutong's embarrassed expression.

Qu Tutong hurriedly cupped his hands and said: "A small group of Turkic soldiers invaded Shahe, although the King of Xiangyi stopped them, they suffered heavy losses. I will be summoned by His Highness the King of Qin to discuss this matter at Tiance Mansion."

Li Yuanji frowned slightly and didn't say much.

The Turks are now like wolves surrounding the sheepfold, the Tang Dynasty is the sheepfold, and the people of the Tang Dynasty are the sheep in the sheepfold.

As long as the Turkic people find an opportunity, they will rush to take a bite.

The raids in spring and autumn they call the Valley of Grass.

A winter raid they call a winter hunt.

They almost spared no effort to stare at Datang, always thinking about how to bite a piece of meat from Datang.

The scale of attacks in winter is generally not too large, and they are all launched by the Turkic tribes themselves.

There is no regularity and no scale.

The guard at the edge of the town is enough to deal with it.

Only when there is a major injury, or a major gain, will it be reported to the court.

Li Shenfu obviously suffered a disadvantage this time, so he reported it.

Li Shimin will solve this kind of thing, and Li Yuanji doesn't need to worry about it.

Li Yuanji's eyes fell on Yin Qiao, and he smiled calmly: "You look so happy, but what kind of happy event did you meet?"

"Hey hey hey..."

As soon as this was mentioned, Yin Qiao laughed like a fool.

Qu Tutong also laughed, and helped Yin Qiao explain: "Mrs. Yin is happy, that's why Brother Yin is enjoying the spring breeze."

Li Yuanji was stunned.

It turned out that Yin Qiao's wife was happy.

This is indeed a good thing for Yin Qiao.

If Yin Qiao's wife later gave birth to a son, then Yin Yuan, Yin Qiao's cheap son, would be out of luck.

The title you get is about to fly away.

Maybe it will be sent back.

In his heart, Li Yuanji mourned Yin Yuan for three breaths, and said with a smile, "This is indeed a happy event, so I'm so happy to congratulate you."

Yin Qiao laughed louder and even more stupidly, "After Huihui dog was born, I invite Your Highness to drink."

Li Yuanji nodded and smiled, "You can drink this wine. But you have to wait until you have resolved your troubles before drinking it."

The smile on Yin Qiao's face suddenly froze.

Qu Tutong also smiled wryly.

Why do you say that Yin Qiao will be in trouble?
Because Yin Qiao's wife was pregnant at the wrong time.

Yin Qiao's wife was conceived last year.

The second half of last year was Li Chengzong's funeral.

It was appointed by Li Yuan.

Yin Qiao's wife was pregnant during this period, which means that Yin Qiao and his wife had sex during this period.

This is disrespect to Li Chengzong and Li Yuan.

Thanks to Li Chengzong's funeral, if this is the funeral of Empress Taimu, Yin Qiao's family will probably be unlucky.

But even so, Yin Qiao still had to find ways to give Li Yuan an explanation.

In fact, there were many people who had intercourse during Li Chengzong's funeral, but few people dared to commit suicide.

Whoever kills someone is a bird in the early days, and whoever is putting eye drops on Li Yuan.

Li Yuan had to tidy up anyway.

Otherwise, whoever respects his will in the future will obey his orders and enter the destiny of heaven.

"I don't know Your Highness..."

Yin Qiao said with an ugly face.

Li Yuanji didn't wait for Yin Qiao to finish speaking, and immediately said: "No, I won't help you to intercede, you should ask my second brother to help you."

Yin Qiao looked sad.

Qu Tutong hesitated to speak, as if he had something to say.

But Li Yuanji didn't intend to listen.

"However, you and I are kind of in love. If someone impeaches you for this and forces you to give up this child, I can help you."

Li Yuanji spoke slowly.

No matter how you say it, Yin Qiao is an outstanding person, and he finally hoped for a child. It would be too cruel for him if he just disappeared because of the issue of Li Chengzong's funeral.

If it really develops to the point where someone brings this matter up to the court, then Li Yuanji doesn't mind helping.

Yin Qiao raised his head suddenly, and said gratefully: "Thank you, Your Highness."

Li Yuanji sighed, "It's not easy for you."

Yin Qiao pursed his lips and nodded violently, feeling that Li Yuanji understood him.

"Okay, I won't tell you any more, I have to go back to Jiulongtan Mountain."

Li Yuanji waved his hand and rode his horse again.

Qu Tutong and Yin Qiao all bowed to Li Yuanji's receding figure and saluted.

……

On the subsequent road, no more brown candy jumped out, and no one blocked the way.

Li Yuanji arrived at Jiulongtan Mountain smoothly.

The maidservants and eunuchs staying in the abode in Jiulongtan Mountain rejoiced when their master came back, and hurriedly tidied up the abode.

Li Yuanji encouraged them a few words, and received Li Shentong who arrived at Jiulongtan Mountain one step later than him.

"Tell me about you, it's fine if you don't feel comfortable on a good day, why make me feel uncomfortable?"

Li Shentong began to complain as soon as he entered the door.

He also took a long breath and sat down in front of the short table in the main room, beckoning Li Yuanji to pour tea for him.

Li Yuanji boiled the water and sent Li Xu to play, Li Shentong began to complain again, "I provoked you, and you tormented me like this? I don't know how much fun I had playing with my grandson in the house.

Because of you, I was dragged out by your father to guard Jiulongtan Mountain.

How do you say you compensate me? "

Li Yuanji glanced at Li Shentong, flicked his long sleeves, and while fiddling with the tea leaves, he said, "Are you sure you're entertaining grandchildren at the mansion, and not accompanying the maidservant Le He who snatched it back last night?"

Li Shentong's face turned dark all of a sudden, and he said furiously, "What nonsense are you talking about? Is this old man that kind of person?"

Li Yuanji added tea to the teapot, and said with a strange expression, "Aren't you?"

Li Shentong shouted angrily: "When did the old man die? You don't want to tarnish the old man's name."

Li Yuanji was amused by Li Shentong, and couldn't help looking at Li Shentong: "Are you sure you have a clear name? As far as I know, when you march and fight, you have to bring three or five maidservants to serve you.

It is said that when you fought the Turkic people in Shizhou, you fought against the Turkic people on the city wall during the day, and you had to fight the servants at night when you returned to your residence. "

"Slander! This is a slander to the old man!"

Li Shentong shouted.

Li Yuanji gave Li Shentong a blank look, and said angrily: "It's enough to pretend, it's not over yet. None of us don't know who else, why are you pretending in front of me?"

Li Shentong stopped screaming instantly, but he snorted heavily, and said, "This old man is definitely not the kind of person you said."

After saying this, he added another sentence, "You have to compensate the old man."

Li Yuanji nodded and said, "Okay, I can make your daughter a widow. If you like, I can also give your daughter the name of Kefu."

Li Shentong stared and shouted, "How can you be so vicious?!"

Li Yuanji glanced at Li Shentong, and said speechlessly, "Don't you want compensation from me?"

Li Shentong stood up suddenly, and shouted: "This kind of compensation is not what I want."

Li Yuanji rolled his eyes and said, "Then I'll ask my father to make way for you. How about you?"

Li Shentong jumped up in fright, and exclaimed: "You are crazy, you dare to say such nonsense."

Li Yuanji has always been favored by Li Yuan, and has never seen Li Yuan's cruel side.

But Li Shentong has seen it before.

If Li Yuan becomes cruel, let alone his younger brother, his uncle will kill him for you.

When Li Yuan took over the family business at the age of eight, he was often helped by his uncles, but also made things difficult for him.

When Li Yuan grew up, when he punished his uncles, he was cruel.

The reason why everyone in the Li family obeyed Li Yuan's order was because Li Yuan was so ruthless that everyone was afraid, so he could only obey Li Yuan and dare not resist.

Li Xiaogong should be one of the few among the juniors who has seen Li Yuan take care of his own people, so when Li Yuan seized Li Xiaogong's power, Li Xiaogong didn't dare to let a single fart apart from complaining.

If Li Yuanji dared to go and tell Li Yuan, let Li Yuan make way for Li Shentong.

Li Shentong's family will disappear in an instant.

"Don't you want compensation?"

Li Yuanji asked jokingly.

Li Shentong glared at Li Yuanji viciously, sat down again with a beard and staring eyes, and said unwillingly: "Forget that I'm afraid of you, okay?"

Li Yuanji asked with a smile, "Do you still pretend?"

Li Shentong glared at Li Yuanji again, but said nothing.

Li Yuanji said again: "My father asked you to guard Jiulongtan Mountain, it may not be a bad thing for you."

Li Shentong rolled his eyes, "Did you find something?"

Li Yuanji said amusedly: "Is it still necessary to find out? My eldest brother has even called back Dou Gui, and it is clear that he wants to fight with my second brother.

Then the struggle between them will become more intense than before.

If we were in the court, we would definitely be dragged down by them.

Only by hiding here can we protect ourselves wisely.

You said, is it a good thing for you that my father let you stay here? "

Li Shentong hesitated for a while and said: "Although that is the case, I am really not happy to be called here to blow the cold wind on a good day."

Li Yuanji said kindly: "Then I will accompany you to the small martial arts arena to exercise your muscles and bones?"

Li Shentong shook his head without hesitation, "Let's forget it. My old bones can't stand your toss at all."

Li Yuanji suggested: "You can bring your aunt and a few younger brothers over and spend the festive season together here."

Li Shentong rolled his eyes and said: "You don't feel pain in your back when you stand and talk, if you really take your aunt and those brats over, what will others think of me?

Your eldest brother and your second brother will think that I am attached to you and want to support you in ascending the throne.

At that time, I still don't know how to deal with me.

Not only can I not stand up to your tossing, but I can't stand your elder brother and your second brother's tossing. "

Li Yuanji nodded and said with a smile, "Then don't complain."
