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

Chapter 146 Say Hurry to Bad Temptations

Li Qing only briefly told them about the expedition to the pole. After all, now is not the time. If you want to explore the polar regions, you will have to wait at least more than ten years.

However, Lao Li's eyes suddenly lit up. What about the polar environment... I want to go there.

Under the planning of all ministers, the following plans have been tentatively decided:
[-]. Niu Jinda was the commander of the fleet, and Yuchi Gong's eldest son Yuchi Baolin, Changsun Wuji's second son Changsun Huan, and Du Ruhui's second son Du He were deputy commanders. They led five iron-clad ships and brought Tang Dynasty's special products, such as silk, porcelain, and tea. , sailing around the world, establishing diplomatic relations with countries along the way, and collecting local intelligence.

[-]. With Zhang Liang, Duke of Yun State, as the fleet commander, Cheng Zhijie’s third son Cheng Chubi, Fang Xuanling’s second son Fang Yiai, and Gao Shilian’s second son Gao Zhixing as deputy commanders, they will lead the fleet to develop the archipelago south of Yazhou.

[-]. With Junji, Duke of Lu State, as the fleet commander, Li Shiji’s second son Li Siwen, Li Xiaogong’s third son Li Chongzhen, and Li Jing’s second son Li Dejiao as deputy commanders, and lead the fleet to Australia.

Regardless of whether these second-generation ancestors agree or not, the ministers are already gnashing their teeth in their hearts. Even if they are tied, they must tie these second-generation ancestors to the boat!
What is this? This is an opportunity to shine in the annals of history and honor our ancestors! In ordinary people's homes, the family tree would have to be opened on a separate page, and ancestor worship would be a first-class treat during festivals and festivals! Are you not active? Even if you are not active, you must be active!
After the meeting, Lao Li left the ministers to eat in the palace, and then took Li Qing with him to Da'an Palace to see Empress Dowager Dou.

At this time, Empress Dowager Dou was playing mahjong with Empress Changsun, Li Xiuning and Li Shimin's second sister, Princess Xiangyang. When she saw Li Qing coming, Empress Dowager Dou, who had been losing all morning, instantly beamed with joy. The old lady was so happy that her eyes almost wrinkled.

As the saying goes, the more the mother-in-law looks at her son-in-law, the happier she becomes, and the more Empress Dowager Dou looks at Li Qing, the more she feels very good about him.

"Aunt, second sister, sister-in-law." Li Qing began to say hello.

"You still call me Auntie?" Empress Dowager Dou stretched out her hand to touch a card and slapped it on the table happily: "It's settled! It has to be Xiaoqing, just like a magpie. With this, I'm reconciled! All of them are in harmony, Pay for it!"

"Haha..." Li Qingqian walked over with a smile, stretched his head and took a look at Li Xiuning's cards - he found that the sister had made a cut and did not even cut off the Queen Mother Dou's big card.

No wonder he was so angry that he almost turned into a puffer fish.

"Bad brand basket..." Li Qing muttered, but received an angry eye roll in return.

"I already know about the matter between you and our Xiuning." Empress Dowager Dou happily pushed the cards into the mahjong machine: "Tell me, when do you plan to get married?"

Indeed, not only did she know about it, Empress Changsun also joked with her just now, saying the allusion of "Li Qing eats rouge", which made Empress Dowager Dou happy.

"Ah this..." Li Qing scratched his head: "Our family members are not all together, no matter what, we have to bring Uncle Li to witness the blessing together."

It's okay not to mention Li Yuan. When Li Yuan was mentioned, Queen Mother Dou changed her face instantly and slapped the cards she just touched on the table: "Why are you waiting for Li Shude? He's not enough to make me angry! Xiaoqing, don't waste your time. Immortal Qi, it would be better to get him back than to get a piece of biscuit!"

Okay, I found the root. The root of Lao Li's family's fondness for using Hu cakes as a metaphor turns out to be Empress Dowager Dou.

"Hi, I plan to take you all to the Wude Dynasty..." Li Qing scratched his head and said with a smile: "By the way, I'll meet Brother Li again, and Brother Li..."

Brother Li refers to Li Jiancheng, and Brother Li naturally refers to Xiao Li Er of Wude Dynasty.

He deliberately didn't mention Li Yuanji. After all, this person was a disgusting person, so bringing it up would hurt everyone's mood.

Queen Mother Dou was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "It's good, my muscles and bones haven't relaxed for a long time. When I go to Wude Chao in a few days, I will definitely vent my anger on Erlang!"

At the end, he added: "There is also that Sanhu, we must fight it carefully."

Queen Changsun and Li Shimin looked at each other, with uncontrollable joy in their eyes.

But Empress Changsun was very good at controlling her expressions, and she hid her joy deep down almost instantly.

"Auntie is right." Li Qing echoed the last sentence, lowered his head and asked in Li Xiuning's ear: "Have you lost all morning?"

"That's right, let's lose together with grandma." Li Xiuning pursed her lips, seeming to be very dissatisfied with her old lady who never gave cards.

Li Qing didn't answer, but put one hand on Li Xiuning's slender shoulder, and the other hand on her small hand. He didn't let her hit five strips, and stretched out his hand to knock out the two cakes in her hand.

"Going to Wude Chao? Touch!" Empress Changsun reached out to catch the five cakes, "Isn't there two second brothers and two of me?"

"I never thought about it," Li Qing chuckled. He pressed Li Xiuning's hand again and knocked out the west wind in the card. "But to be honest, if there is another brother Li who can help share the burden, If we do this, the troubles in later dynasties will not be so troublesome."

"What my dear brother said is also what I want to say." Li Shimin also moved a stool to the side of Empress Changsun, and stretched out his hand to help her play cards, but the outstretched hand was quickly swatted away by Empress Changsun.

Li Shimin scratched his head, how could the always irritable third sister tolerate her virtuous brother to help her play cards, but the virtuous Guanyin maid refused to let her help with boxing?
But he never thought about a problem. His card skills were... almost as bad as his third sister's.

Not only the poker skills, but the luck on the card table is also very bad. If you hit one player, you will get what you want. After beating the one chicken, you will get the same chicken, and after playing the nine cakes, you will get nine cakes.

After three more rounds, Li Xiuning's eyes became brighter and brighter.

Although his skills are not very good, he still remembers the card types very clearly - even a novice mahjong player can tell that Li Qing's set of cards is unusual.

Of course the other three people also saw the change in her expression, and immediately began to abandon and play defensively, trying not to fire cannons.

However, Li Qing chuckled, reached out and slapped the card he just touched on the table.

"It's indeed Kujo, touch it yourself! Nine Lotus Lanterns, Chenghui Chapter 88."

"Did you use magic?" Queen Changsun looked up at Li Qing with a dark expression on her face.

"I'm just the god of gambling." Li Qing hummed, reaching out to pinch Li Xiuning's delicate chin.

Li Xiuning did not dodge, but raised his head and looked at Li Qing with admiring eyes.

Li Shimin was dumbfounded. Is this the same third sister who made me kneel in the ice and snow to admit my mistake, and who made Li Yuanji kneel on the ground to learn how to beat a dog if it doesn't obey?
Princess Xiangyang covered her mouth and smiled. Unlike Li Shimin, she didn't have the sister filter, but she knew exactly what kind of temperament Li Xiuning was.

After playing cards all afternoon, Li Qing was kicked off the card table after helping Li Xiuning touch another thirteen pieces.

No matter what he said, no one believed him, and they all subconsciously felt that he was cheating with magic.

After a simple dinner in the evening, the two left the palace and returned to the princess mansion.

"Shu'er?"

In front of the door, Princess Li Shu of Gaoyang was sitting boredly waiting for Li Xiuning. When she heard the call, she raised her head happily, but the moment she saw Li Qing, she turned into an expression as if she had seen a ghost.

"What's that expression on your face?" Li Qing's face turned dark immediately, and he even thought about it in his mind - I haven't messed with you before.

Judging from your expression, you seem to regard me as a man-eating savage beast.

Am I that terrible? Impossible, absolutely impossible!
"Bad guy! Uncle is a bad guy!" Li Shu made a face, turned around and ran away. Li Qing was so angry that there was nothing he could do - he couldn't vent his anger with a little girl, right? He really couldn't do this kind of thing like stepping on Beihai Kindergarten.

However, Li Xiuning spoke in time and stopped Li Shu from escaping.

Li Shu lowered his head when he heard his aunt's call and walked back reluctantly.

She didn't have many friends in the palace, but she didn't want her aunt, the only one who didn't dislike her as a motherless child, to dislike her and stop playing with her because of her disobedience.

"You little girl, I haven't dealt with you. Why did you see me running away?" Li Qing couldn't help but laugh.

Li Shu snorted and said, "Don't think I didn't see it. You were beating my aunt on the sofa last night. Humph! Bad guy, I'll tell Aye, but Aye doesn't even dare to care about you! You still say you're not a bad guy?"

Li Qing couldn't help but blush, why did this little girl see the peach he hit his sister?

It’s time to work on the anti-peeping mode...

"Uh, Shu'er, you misunderstood." Li Xiuning reached out and stroked the back of Li Shu's head: "Your uncle and I were just joking yesterday. Don't take it seriously..."

"Really?" Li Shu was a little suspicious. Could it be that this villainous uncle forced his aunt to prevent her from telling the truth?
"Of course it's absolutely true, right, brother?" Li Xiuning looked at Li Qing with a smile.

"Yes, yes, I have a good relationship with your aunt!" Li Qing said, reaching out and hugging Li Xiuning: "Right, sister?"

"So that's it..." Li Shu half-hesitantly believed what they said.

"Let's go in and watch TV series together." Li Xiuning touched her head and extended an invitation with a smile.

"Yeah!" Li Shu nodded hurriedly.

Li Qing was not interested in the kind of pink and bubbly TV series that a young girl and a 12-year-old girl watched, and yawned endlessly while watching. In fact, the girl was not very interested, so she had no choice but to risk her life in order to coax her eldest niece.

After Li Shu left, Li Xiuning covered her mouth, yawned, and turned off the TV.

"Sleepy?" Li Qing asked with a smile.

Li Xiuning breathed a long sigh of relief: "It's really tiring to coax the children..."

"Then you still coax the child?" Li Qing asked puzzledly.

"You..."

Li Xiuning folded her hands and stretched them upward, revealing all the exquisite curves on her body.

"Shu'er is helpless in the palace. Her brothers and sisters ostracize her. She has no friends to play with and she is very lonely on weekdays... If I don't accompany her and guide her, what will happen to this child in the future? What should I do if I go astray?”

"So that's it..." Li Qing couldn't help but suddenly realized.

"What?" Li Xiuning looked up at him and stretched her legs into his arms.

Li Qing pulled her skirt up slightly, revealing two slender legs wrapped in pure white knee-high socks. They were straight and slender, just like the characters in the comics.

He stretched out his hand and gently tugged on the right calf. There was not much friction between the stockings and the skin, and he pulled the stocking off with just a slight force.

There is not much difference between Li Xiuning's skin and her white stockings. They are both equally fair, but there is a unique softness to her skin. Her jade-white calves look even more radiant under the light.

He stretched out his hand to the little foot that had taken off its stockings. The five green-white toes were extremely cute, and the toenails were an extremely cute pink color, just like the graduation project of the Creator, like a precious work of art.

Li Xiuning turned away. The white swan neck was covered with fine pink.

"Actually, it's nothing, it's just that she did go astray in the future." Li Qing said while playing: "Since childhood, she has been depressed for a long time, her mother died and her father lost contact for a long time, and she was forced by Lao Li to marry someone she didn't like. ...Cheating is quite normal.”

This is true, but it’s not Li Shimin’s fault. After all, he has too many children, so it’s normal for him not to have much fatherly love. Besides, according to the official history, Princess Gaoyang is actually quite favored in front of Lao Li, so it’s the blame. At least it can't be pinned on Lao Li.

"Yes, this child has lost his mother since he was a child, and he is not very favored in the palace." Li Xiuning sighed softly, "No matter what, we cannot let this child go into evil ways. This is what we elders should do. "

"No problem, isn't it just to coax the child?" Li Qing didn't find it too troublesome, since he wasn't the one to coax him anyway.

"Don't worry, I won't look at her through colored glasses. It's not me who will marry her in the future anyway."

Li Qing was telling the truth. He was not going to marry Princess Gaoyang. It had nothing to do with who he got a hat trick for.

Anyway, don’t be as miserable as Dou Fengjie. When Dou Fengjie went out to buy a bag of fruits, he would meet nine men whose wives had cheated on him...

Li Xiuning gently scratched his face with her foot: "Looking at what you said, even if someone else marries her, you can't cuckold her. The relationship between husband and wife is fate."

"Indeed, after a hundred years of cultivation, we can cross the same boat, and a thousand years of cultivation, we can sleep together." Li Qing agreed with emotion.

"Then how many years have we been together to cultivate our fate?" Li Xiuning stepped forward and sat in Li Qing's arms.

A pair of bright eyes looked at Li Qing, full of expectation.

Li Qing said loudly: "It's hard to say..."

He can always boil cranes and burn harps.

Li Xiuning:......

She took a gentle breath and whispered into Li Qing's ear: "You are not allowed to act weird. If sister is satisfied, what you said yesterday will be..."

Li Qing immediately became energetic.

If you say this, I won’t feel sleepy anymore. I, Li Qing, am a gentleman. Of course I have to say goodbye to bad temptations!
He cleared his throat. He didn't care whether the donkey's lips matched the horse's mouth or not, or whether he was embarrassed to the extreme. In short, he just gave up. He whispered in Li Xiuning's ear: "I once transformed into a stone bridge and endured thousands of years of rain, sun, and wind, in exchange for my fate with you in this life..."

After saying that, I felt goosebumps all over the place, and I was so embarrassed that I was riding high.

However, women just do this. After hearing these words, Li Xiuning's eyes suddenly sparkled, and she hugged him with her arms emotionally: "Qinglang..."
