The mysterious bird of destiny, the beginning of China

Chapter 302 Tianji Pavilion

"Old General, why do you do this?"

Seeing that Li Gang was going to such great lengths, Li Qingzhao rushed up to him, helped him up, and then said with a look of unbearability on his face.

In front of the residence of General Zhenguo, in addition to Li Gang himself, there were also many family members behind him. At this moment, they all came out to greet Li Qingzhao.

What also surprised General Li Gang was that Li Qingzhao, who always stayed close to home and seemed to adhere to the ways of a woman, actually came to visit the house in person.

In addition, he also admired Li Qingzhao very much, and because Li Qingzhao was favored by the divine bird and could have eternal beauty and immortality, he could have been so respected by him.
Not to mention him, even the emperor would probably need Yu Zun to deign to greet Li Qingzhao in person.

Perhaps Li Qingzhao also knew this, so she rarely entered the palace or stepped out of her mansion.

"Your general's visit to our house really brings glory to this humble abode!"

Li Gang's face was full of wrinkles at this time, and Li Qingzhao also felt Li Gang's old appearance, and couldn't help but feel a little sad in his heart. She couldn't help but think of herself. If she hadn't been cared for by the divine bird, she might have become an old woman by now.

Then he thought of his parents again, feeling a little sad.

Li Gang was really too old, and Li Qingzhao couldn't bear to have him work out again, so he asked Li Gang to stop, and then walked out of Li's house accompanied by others.

Li Gang even came out to greet Li Qingzhao in person, but as Li Gang's family members or descendants, how could they accept Li Qingzhao's courtesy?
"General Li, please come in..."

Li Qingzhao looked at Gong Ling's confused look and couldn't help but shake his head and laugh, and then whispered in a low voice: "You know what you're asking!"

Hearing Li Qingzhao's words, the people of the Li family below suddenly showed expressions of surprise, and at the same time, they were even more happy. After all, they all knew that Li Qingzhao was favored by the divine bird, and his appearance remained youthful forever.

Hearing Li Qingzhao's words, Gong Ling's face instantly turned red, and she lowered her head and no longer dared to answer.

"In that case, it's better to let the two young people meet, so as to avoid unnecessary trouble. What do you think, General Li?"

Therefore, this is also the reason why Li Qingzhao came to Li Gang in the first place.

"Where did my sister go?"

"I understand this..."

"General Li should know that when we regained Yanzhou, I recognized a younger sister in the city. My younger sister is now past her hair age. She is well versed in books and rituals, and is especially familiar with the art of war..."

Li Qingzhao was in front again. Gong Ling lowered his head and followed behind, but heard Li Qingzhao's voice, "After the weather clears, you and I will go to the library together and take a closer look at the construction progress of the library..."

Li Qingzhao also understood that she also knew that Li Gang was not a rigid person, and she respected her grandson's opinions to a certain extent.

After getting on his horse, Li Qingzhao looked at the sky. At this time, there was already a drizzle falling from the sky. In midsummer, the rain was often violent and sudden. It was not common for a drizzle like this to fall first.

"I know about this girl Gong Ling, but I don't know what my grandson is like..."

In front of the mansion, Gong Ling waited quietly. When he saw Li Qingzhao returning, he quickly asked his disciples to take Texue back to the mansion, and then looked at Li Qingzhao with curiosity.

"I heard that General Li has a grandson who is already in his prime and not yet married. I wonder if that's true?"

"Exactly!"

……

Li Qingzhao nodded, with a smile on his face, "Although she has a humble status, she also has great talents. General, you also know that I don't like vulgar things, and now Gong Ling is handling the affairs in my house, including the building that is being built now. Library."

Li Qingzhao nodded, and then the two chatted about the time of meeting, and then said goodbye.

Hearing Li Qingzhao say that Gong Ling's status was low, he quickly raised his hand and said: "I don't attach much importance to the so-called well-matched family. In the so-called thousands of years of China's history, how many of the so-called dignitaries in the past were ordinary farmers today? And in the past, how many of the so-called dignitaries were ordinary farmers today? How many of the ordinary people have become nobles in the court now?"

"Don't dare..."

Because of the rain, there were not many pedestrians on the street, so Li Qingzhao rode very fast and returned to the mansion after a while.

However, in Li Qingzhao's view, Gong Ling's status on his side was indeed too low. He was just an orphan. Although he adopted her and considered her his sister, he would not agree to it for a family that values ​​family status.

They looked at each other in confusion, and then unanimously turned their gazes to the head of the family, Li Gang, above, with anticipation in their eyes.

……

Gong Ling: "..."

The Li family saw it was raining and wanted to hand Li Qingzhao an umbrella. Li Qingzhao shook his head slightly and rejected the offer, then galloped back to the city.

Li Gang thought for a moment, then nodded and said. At the same time, he looked at Li Qingzhao aside. He wondered what Li Qingzhao meant when he mentioned his grandson. Did he mean to...

"good."

"Stay!"

"...That's right."

The summer rain comes in a hurry and goes away very quickly. The next day, the sky clears up, the sun hangs high, and the bright sunshine shines on the earth, gradually drying the wet ground.

As for Li Qingzhao's sister, even if she is not a biological sister, with this relationship, she is much closer to the divine bird than anyone else in the world.

Thinking of this, Li Gang quickly threw out this idea.

After entering the Li Mansion, he came to sit down in the hall, with Li Gang accompanying him, while the family members of the Li Mansion sat below. After a while of greetings, Li Qingzhao explained the purpose of his visit.

"If General Li's grandson is not married, we can also get married..."

"Hey, that's not what I meant!"

However, he quickly adjusted his mood, threw away the thoughts in his heart, and bowed slightly to the people in the Li Mansion behind Li Gang:
"Li Qingzhao, I've met you all."

However, they saw that the deceived head of the family, Li Gang, had eyes full of thoughts. After a moment of silence, Li just said, "Could General Li be talking about the girl named Gong Ling?"

Li Gang thought for a moment and then said this.

Li Qingzhao sat on the back of Tuxue, while Gong Ling also sat on the back of a big maroon horse, following Li Qingzhao.

At this time, the place where the library was built was already bustling with people, the craftsmen were busy, and the sound of banging stones could be heard from time to time.

"General Li..."

At this moment, a middle-aged man in brocade suddenly walked over, followed by a young man behind him.

"General Li..."

Li Qingzhao looked up and saw that it was Li Gang's eldest son, and the young man behind him was Li Gang's grandson.

"I heard that General Li is going to build a library in the city to provide a place for talented people from all over the world to write books. I'm really impressed by what I heard!"

"That's why I took the liberty to come here this time to see the construction process of the library..."

"In this case, I will accompany you to see it for yourself."

Li Qingzhao nodded, then got off his horse and wanted to take the middle-aged man over to watch and explain to him. However, at the same time, he turned to Gong Ling behind him and said:

"You don't have to follow..." The middle-aged man also said to the young man behind him: "You should be right here!"

Seeing the two people walking forward, Gong Ling and the young man who were right there couldn't help but look at each other.

……

Three major events have happened in Bianjing recently. The first is that the Song Dynasty won a complete victory in the war with Xixia and recovered a large area of ​​land from the Xixia Kingdom.

The second and third things are all related to the same person, and that is Li Qingzhao, the female general in the city!
They were the completion of the library built by Li Qingzhao and the marriage of Li Qingzhao's sister to the young master from the Zhenguo General's Palace. The marriage between the young master from the Zhenguo General's Palace and Li Qingzhao's sister even alarmed the emperor in the palace, who also sent People sent certain rewards.

The people in the city talked a lot about these three things.

"I didn't expect that the female general of the Song Dynasty would marry the general of Zhenguo. This can be said to be a strong alliance!"

"But as far as I know, Li Qingzhao doesn't seem to have a sister, and where did he get a sister at this time?"

"This is because you are ignorant. During the battle to destroy Liao, General Li adopted an orphan in Yanzhou City, and this orphan later became General Li's sister!"

"I see……"

"..."

"The library built by General Li has also been completed, and during this period of time, more and more people came from all directions in Bianjing City."

"They all came because of the emperor's order!"

"I'm also curious about what kind of book General Li wants to compile..."

……

However, they saw that in front of the library built by Li Qingzhao, there were already many onlookers. They looked at the library that was already standing on the ground in front of them, their faces full of surprise and curiosity.

Because the library in front of you is different from other high-rise buildings in Bianjing City. The library in front of you is more like a tower, and although this tower also uses wood, it mostly uses gold, iron and other materials!
Therefore, it also makes this library look extraordinarily majestic and solid, and even more resplendent.

The entire foundation of the library is made of huge rocks, and is half a foot above the ground, making the library appear even taller.

At this time, red silk was hung on the library, waiting for Li Qingzhao to come in person.

……

In Li Qingzhao's mansion, the mansion was already covered with red silk, and people were coming and going. They came to the door with gifts and then entered the mansion.

Today is the day when Li Qingzhao's sister leaves the cabinet. All the dignitaries in Bianjing City come to visit in person. For a time, the mansion is filled with silks, silks, and gold and jade.

In the flower hall, Li Qingzhao greeted the guests with a smile on his face and greeted them one by one.

Not long after, Li Qingzhao noticed that the smile on her face was a little stiff. After entertaining the distinguished person, the other guests were handed over to the housekeeper of the house, and then she entered the backyard.

"elder sister……"

In Gong Ling's room, she was already wearing a wedding dress and looked particularly beautiful. Perhaps because she was about to get married, Gong Ling's face was full of expectation and reluctance.

Seeing Li Qingzhao come in, she stood up immediately, then her eyes turned red and tears couldn't help falling.

"Don't do this, be careful of your makeup getting wet with tears."

Li Qingzhao felt a little reluctant when he saw Gong Ling looking like this. After all, she is her own sister, even if she is not close to her, it is better than close to her, more like her own daughter.

She thought of the time when she found Gong Ling in Yanzhou City, the sensible Gong Ling sleeping between her parents who had been dead for a long time. The satisfaction on her face was still vivid in her mind.

"Don't cry..."

Li Qingzhao stretched out his hand to rub it again, but when he saw Gong Ling's beautiful bun, he took his hand back.

"After you get married, you must know how to be filial to your elders and respect your husband..."

Li Qingzhao gave Gong Ling his final instructions.

"If you have time, you can also go to Yanzhou to pay homage to your biological parents and tell them that you are living a good life now..."

"understood……"

Hearing this, Gong Ling's eyes shed tears like pearls, and then she couldn't help but throw herself into Li Qingzhao's arms.

……

The library was officially opened, and Li Qingzhao came to the library. Looking at the new appearance of the library, her face showed joy.

At the same time, a large number of books were also delivered to the library. They were so overwhelming that they filled up the entire first floor of the library, and they could barely hold all the books.

Later, Li Qingzhao sent people to start counting the talented people who came to Bianjing City, and registered them one by one. After verifying their identity and talents, they could enter the library.

After getting married, before Gong Ling returned to the library again, she had already lost her virginity as a girl and became more mature as a wife.

"Although Gong Ling is already married, Gong Ling still wants to help her sister compile books..."

After saying that, Gong Ling glanced at her husband behind her and said, "My officials also agree..."

The man behind him nodded immediately and said: "Sister...sister, I have no objection to Gong Ling's willingness to be in the library."

Li Qingzhao looked at the newlyweds and was unwilling to refuse their kindness, so he nodded slightly and said, "If you have time, you can come."

Hearing Li Qingzhao's agreement, Gong Ling showed a look of surprise on her face, and then she said something to her husband-in-law and stayed in the library. Her husband-in-law bowed to Li Qingzhao before slowly leaving.

"Sister, I have nothing to do when I'm free. How about I manage the library for my sister?"

"No need, there are specialized people to manage it."

Li Qingzhao shook his head. From her point of view, after all, Gong Ling was already married and belonged to someone else's family. How could she bother her anymore.

But Gong Ling didn't care and said, "Gong Ling knows what you are worried about, but my father-in-law and mother-in-law are both reasonable people, and they agree that I can manage the library for you, so you don't have to worry."

After hearing Gong Ling's words and seeing the pleading look on Gong Ling's face, Li Qingzhao finally nodded, but still said: "But don't forget your identity, you are already married!"

"I know, sister~"

When she heard Li Qingzhao let go, Gong Ling immediately hugged Li Qingzhao's arm and said coquettishly, her face full of joy.

"But sister, your library hasn't been named yet. I wonder what sister you want to name it?"

Gong Ling said suddenly.

"name……"

Li Qingzhao really hadn't thought about it yet. He hesitated for a moment and then said:
"Let's call it Tianji Pavilion!"
