Li Er of the Tang Dynasty: Ancestor Xie is here!

Chapter 145 Let’s discuss our own affairs from now on
Princess Gao Yang had a question mark on her face. Of course she didn't understand what was going on. But since Aye said there was nothing wrong, she didn't dare to take care of it, but was secretly worried about Aunt Pingyang.
This remark became a joke in Lao Li's harem. Empress Changsun and a group of concubines imitated Princess Gaoyang's words in a soft voice, and then burst out laughing.
"It's okay if Shu'er doesn't understand. Could it be that you, second brother, don't understand either?" Empress Changsun covered her mouth and teased Lao Li.
"Didn't you think of that level..." Old Li scratched his face in embarrassment, and in order to change the subject, he began to tease Li Qing lively with the concubines.
"You don't know what Brother Xian's wood looks like. One day, Third Sister used orange-flavored lipstick and asked Brother Xian if he wanted to try it. Guess what happened." Li Shimin gave up.
"How did he do it?" Concubine Yang was immediately interested in gossip.
"The third sister had already set her posture, but he just reached out and scratched the third sister's lips and put it in his mouth..."
At this point, everyone was stunned, and then burst into laughter.
Concubine Yang hugged Queen Changsun next to her and laughed so hard that tears came out.
"No, I...I laughed to death..." Concubine Wei was so happy that she leaned back and forth and said, "How can there be such wood? Hahaha..."
"But second brother, how can you call me uncle in the future?" Empress Changsun suddenly asked the question of the soul: "In the future, you can no longer call me brother-in-law, but brother-in-law..."
Li Shimin's heart skipped a beat.
Damn it, I just focused on getting my brother and my third sister together, and I forgot about this!
"Everyone talks about his own business, everyone talks about his own business..." He waved his hand, indicating that from now on everyone talks about his own business. I will call you brother-in-law, and you will call me Brother Li...
In the early morning of the next day, Li Qing woke up from his sleep early. So many days of semi-military career actually gave him the habit of getting up early.
For a moment, he even wanted to eat a veteran's breakfast.
Li Xiuning is still sleeping soundly, her body is light and slender, yet exquisite. Reflected in the faint morning light, it was as elegant as the white swan in Li Qing's dream last night.
For a moment, Li Qing was fascinated.
Then he realized belatedly that he had snatched away all the quilts while sleeping.
"Sister, sister, get up!"
Li Qing couldn't sleep himself, so he reached out and started to destroy other people's dreams.
"Huh?" Li Xiuning hummed a cute nasal voice and stretched lazily: "What time is it?"
"The sun is shining on your butt, can you see?" Li Qing reached out and patted her: "Get up quickly!"
"What are you doing when you get up?" She looked up at the window and saw that the sun was only as high as Yinshi.
"Of course it's morning practice!" Li Qing smirked, causing Li Xiuning to scream.
……
An hour later, Li Qing was satisfied and ready to go downstairs for dinner.
"I always feel a little weird..."
Li Xiuning frowned slightly and looked awkwardly at her two slender legs. The delicate white stockings fit closely against the skin, soaked in the soft morning light, and tinged with a holy radiance.
"I just like this, sister."
Li Qing's expression was a little unnatural, and it was a bit embarrassing for straight men to talk about his XP like this.
Li Xiuning nodded: "Okay then."
After breakfast, Li Qing planned to go for a walk in the palace, just for digestion.
"Quick, catch it!"
Hearing that the voice was Li Shimin, Li Qing walked over and took a look. In the grass in front of the Lizheng Palace, Li Shimin was catching something with his eyes shining, and beside him was the doting Empress Changsun.
"Aha! I caught you!" He smiled cheerfully and reached out to lift a rabbit.
"Brother Li, what are you doing?" Li Qing walked over curiously.
"Catch the rabbit." Li Shimin smiled and showed off the rabbit, "How about it, look at this rabbit, it's quite fat."
Li Qing couldn't help but be shocked. It turned out that the history books really didn't lie. Brother Li was really catching rabbits in the palace...
"Sister-in-law, it's hard to take care of the children so early in the morning, isn't it?" He teased the eldest grandson Queen.
The latter covered his mouth and chuckled, and did not answer. He just looked at Li Shimin jokingly.
"What did you say?" Li Shimin was also happy and handed the rabbit in his hand to Wang De.
He waved to Yuan Nu in Queen Changsun's arms: "Yuan Nu, come to Aye!"
Yuan Nu screamed and flew onto Li Shimin's arm.
Lao Li took out a walnut from his pocket and stuffed it into Yuan Nu's mouth. Yuan Nu screamed again and flew back to Empress Changsun's arms without any nostalgia.
"Why are you here by yourself?" In order to cover up his embarrassment, Lao Li raised his head and looked at Li Qing, "Where is the third sister?"
Li Qing groaned: "Ah, that...no, where is your third sister, you ask me?"
Li Shimin patted the dust on his hands, folded his arms with a cold smile and said: "Pretend, are you still pretending with me? Gao Yangke saw it at the door yesterday, you and the third sister... Tsk, tsk, brother, you are hiding very deep. Didn't you say that you have no plans for this for the time being? Tell me, when did you two start?"
"Since you have discovered it, I will not act in this scene!" Li Qing assumed the pose of a pangolin, a double agent: "Just two days before we go to the Anxi Protectorate..."
"Then you said you don't have any intention of doing this for the time being. Why does it suddenly smell so good?" Li Shimin looked at Li Qing suspiciously.
"Your sister is riding on me and saying I want to marry you, what else can I do?" Li Qing sniffed: "Besides, I actually like her, mainly because she is beautiful, and she is gentle, considerate, and understanding. People’s wishes…”
Gentle? Empathetic? More than a dozen questions popped up in Li Shimin's mind. How does his third sister have anything to do with these eight characters?
I think she is good at screwing around with human beings, right?
However, after all, these words cannot be said, at least not before the two get married. What if the wise brother is frightened? But then again, as the saying goes, beauty is in the eye of the beholder... Well, it is normal to have such a view.
"As long as you are satisfied," Li Shimin pondered for a moment and then said, "Would you like to hurry up and get the wedding done?"
He was afraid of long nights and many dreams. What if the third sister's true nature was exposed?
However, what he didn't know was that his sister would only become violent in front of her brother.
"The marriage is not urgent." Li Qing stretched out his hand to scratch his chin, looked Li Shimin up and down, until he looked a little scared, and then said with a smile: "It's not enough to have my aunt as a witness, I have to let Li Shimin do whatever it takes." Uncle will also attend the wedding..."
"Huh?" Li Shimin raised his eyebrows: "Is it possible that you want to bring me, Aye, back too?"
"I can't take them with me." Li Qing said decisively. The remaining two places were reserved for the entire Ming Dynasty. Wouldn't it be a waste to use Li Yuan?
Seeing that Li Shimin was puzzled, he said, "Have you ever thought about it, apart from the dynasties behind you, the Wude Dynasty was also part of the Tang Dynasty..."
"You think about it, we can't just let you go back and forth, right?" Li Qing continued: "Brother Li from Wude Dynasty is also Brother Li. Why not give him the most difficult bone to chew in the late Tang Dynasty..."
"Let's do it!" Li Shimin said viciously, in the spirit of a dead Taoist friend not a poor Taoist. Besides, Xiao Li and he are two people, so it would be good if he can help share the burden.
"But Brother Li, tell the truth, are you very resentful towards Uncle Li?" Li Qing pushed Lao Li with his arm.
"Resentment?" Li Shimin raised his head and thought for a moment, and couldn't help but smile: "After so many years, it has dissipated long ago. In fact, even towards my eldest brother, I feel more guilty than resentful."
"What about Yuan Ji?" Li Qingyi looked at him sideways.
"Don't mention him to me! It's annoying to mention him!" Li Shimin said, his nose is not a nose, and his eyes are not eyes.
Li Qing began to add fuel to the fire: "Actually, it doesn't matter whether you remember this or forget it, but I ask you, do you want to see Uncle Li get beaten? Let Auntie take care of him?"
"No! How can this be possible? Aye is my dearest and dearest father!" Li Shimin shouted heartily, then he glanced around and saw that there was no trace of Queen Mother Dou. His righteous expression immediately Disappeared without a trace: "Tell me, what do you want me to do for my brother?"
Li Qing: …
Look at the righteous way you spoke just now, someone who didn't know would have thought you were really a filial son.
"That's right, father's kindness and son's filial piety are the fine traditions of the Tang Dynasty. Don't abandon them." Li Qing said with a smile: "It's actually very simple. You just have to watch from the side. I have already told Zhinu and Li The two of them, Xiao San, have done some research on Uncle Li, and when the time comes, let them apply eye drops in front of Auntie!"
"Yes! Just do it!" Li Shimin said viciously.
As if thinking of the various grievances of being suppressed back then, Li Shimin's face gradually became distorted.
Naturally, Li Shimin would not object to putting eye drops on his father. He said he loved his father the most, but in fact he didn't mind seeing his father being severely punished by his mother.
How can the grievances of so many years just be let go? No matter what happens, you still have to let your past self vent your anger, right?
Suddenly Li Shimin remembered Li Chengqian's report yesterday, saying that Niu Jinda had returned from Yinzhou, and with him was a team transporting gold and silver from Japan, which would arrive this afternoon. The two had a hasty lunch, and then led the civil and military officials to meet Niu Jinda ten miles outside the city.
First, there was the prisoner presentation ceremony for the Eastern Expedition fleet, with more than 120 people in total including Emperor Shuming and his concubines. In order to show the gentleness of the Celestial Empire, Emperor Shuming was symbolically canonized as Marquis Shuming.
As for the people on the Japanese island, they didn't kill many people. After all, Li Qing planned to let them go to Australia to mine. How could people from the Tang Dynasty be allowed to work as coolies in a place where snakes, insects, rats and ants are infested?
Herding in Australia is planned to be left to Turks and other nomadic peoples, and professional matters have to be handled by a professional team. Old Li also had an issue with Ashina Simo about this matter... his name should be Li Simo now. He immediately expressed that it was my Turkic honor to herd cattle for Tian Khan.
The gold and silver brought by the Eastern Expedition fleet amounted to hundreds of cars, which can be said to be an endless stream. Even Li Qing was very surprised to achieve such a big gain in just two months.
Cheng Huaimo, the general who conquered the east, was granted the title of Duke of Pingcheng, Pei Li, the captain of the flagship, was granted the title of Marquis of Ping'an due to his meritorious service, and Li Mei was granted the title of Marquis of Edo.
In comparison, Niu Jinda's fleet was not very large, but it was extremely practical. It included a variety of crops including potatoes, corn, sweet potatoes, and peanuts. After Li Qing replaced them with high-yielding crops cultivated by modern technology, Li Shimin He ordered it to be planted in the imperial estate and distributed to the people after a good harvest.
Niu Jinda was granted the title of Duke of Yin due to his meritorious service, and the deputy captain Yuchi Baolin who traveled with him was given the title of Duke of Yin.
Cheng Yaojin and Yuchi Gong laughed from ear to ear. They went out to find two county princes at home, which meant that their titles could be passed on to their second son in the future.
Two dukes in one discipline, this is a supreme honor.
The ship also brought envoys from many tribes in Yinzhou, so Niu Jinda could be said to have gained all his reputation.
After seeing the majestic Chang'an City, the tribal envoys were all so shocked that they knelt on the ground and kept kissing the ground under their feet.
The officials of the Tang Dynasty were not surprised. Respecting other people's customs is the most basic quality of a gentleman.
At the celebration banquet, Lao Li immediately stated that he would vigorously develop the navigation industry and expand territory on the sea.
Seeing the benefits, various companies expressed their intention to join Li Shimin's great vision, if for no other reason than to become a marquis or count.
After the banquet, Li Shimin left the main ministers behind and began to determine the next route of discovery.
Li Qing was the first to suggest that Niu Jinda should still go to sea and sail around the world.
Niu Jinda immediately said that he would rather take this task than anyone else. After Li Qing said that the first person to complete a circumnavigation of the world would surely shine in the annals of history, everyone present was moved.
"Lao Niu, do you think my third child can do it?" Cheng Yaojin said first.
"Lao Niu, my Baoqi is not bad either!" Yuchi Gong also said.
Changsun Wuji and Fang Xuanling looked at each other. One said that his family's eldest grandson Huanyun Wen Yunwu, and the other said that his family's Fang Yiai was absolutely suitable.
In their view, this is a sure-fire deal.
In fact, this is also the case. The iron-clad steamship is as stable as an old dog when sailing on the sea. As long as it does not encounter a typhoon or tsunami, there is basically no big problem.
In addition to fresh citrus, the ship also has a variety of vitamin supplements. Even if he finished eating the tangerines, he would still have the vitamin tablets Li Qing prepared to replenish his vitamins.
There are no disadvantages except that you can't eat too many green leafy vegetables with an open stomach.
"I told you, don't just focus on sailing around the world. There are so many things that will go down in history waiting." Li Qing reached out and opened the holographic map again and began to draw cakes for them.
"You see, the islands south of Yazhou are rich in spices. The local natives even use spices as fuel to burn. Further south, on the continent, there are rich deposits of gold, silver, copper and iron, and the grasslands are also wide. Very suitable for grazing.”
"If we seize these lands and establish a firm foothold, we will not worry about being remembered in history." Li Qing continued, and then changed the subject, "Of course, there are more difficult challenges, but they will also be remembered in history. Waiting for all the good nephews at home..."
As he spoke, Li Qing pointed his hands towards the South Pole and the North Pole respectively.
