Datang: What's wrong with my fief being a billion points larger?

Chapter 21 There's always a weird feeling
Another day passed like this, and there were only two days left before Li Yuanji's departure. To be precise, there were only a day and a half left, because one morning had already passed.

Li Yuanji just woke up at this point, stretched his muscles, and suddenly felt alive again.

"It's another energetic day!"

There are not many people left in the Prince of Qi's Mansion now. Many of them have been dismissed by Li Yuanji. Among those dismissed people, there are spies from other people and some are truly innocent people.

Li Yuanji didn't think too much about it. Except for those who he was absolutely sure of, all the others were dismissed. Although it would be difficult for these people to contact their masters after going to Lingnan, this matter was still disgusting.

After a while, Yang Qingwan's maid brought the meal. After Li Yuanji finished eating, he prepared to go check on the camp.

Now everything is ready, except for the supplies for Li Yuan and his men and the supplies he extorted. Now he has nothing to do, and the matters in the palace have been basically arranged. Tomorrow Su Dingfang will be the first to set off with a group of people.

Before Li Yuanji walked out of the palace, a voice came over.

"Yuanji, I'm here to see you."

Hearing this familiar voice, Li Yuanji looked up and was stunned. Well, Li Shimin actually came to his Prince Qi's Mansion for the first time.

Li Yuanji found it strange that this person would come. His first reaction was, did he do something?

After a moment's thought, Li Yuanji realized that he had done nothing and immediately felt relieved.

"Second brother is here, come and sit down."

"Come here, hurry up and prepare the wine and food. I want to have a good drink with my second brother today."

Li Shimin also smiled when he heard this. He hesitated for a long time before coming here this time. Finally, he decided to come and take a look. After all, he felt the change in Li Yuanji and had made a decision in his heart. Whether it was for Li Yuan to see or for other reasons, he had to come and see him for both moral and logical reasons.

When they arrived at the small pavilion in the courtyard, the servants had already served the wine and food, and Li Yuanji poured it for Li Shimin.

"Brother, you and I have never had such a good chat together before. Life is unpredictable. Come, have a drink."

The two men raised their glasses and drank together. Li Shimin was a little slow, and Li Yuanji did not notice Li Shimin's little movement.

After finishing a glass of wine, Li Yuanji spoke again.

"Brother, I won't talk about the past anymore. I can only say that I was too ignorant at that time. I will go to Lingnan in the future. The matter of Chang'an is for you and my eldest brother to decide.

In fact, I have a lot to say in my heart, but I don’t know how to say it. I was able to make up my mind to go to Lingnan because I suddenly thought it through and I don’t ask for anything else.

After this time, second brother, we will meet again if we are destined to do so."

After Li Yuanji finished speaking, he picked up the wine glass, gestured, and drank it in one gulp.

Li Shimin also picked up the wine glass.

"Sanhu, I know what you think, and I believe you.

When you go to Lingnan, you must be careful, as it is not very peaceful there. Although it now obeys the Tang Dynasty, it is too far away after all, and there may be people who pretend to obey your orders but actually disobey you.

If you hadn't brought the old, the young, the women and the children with you, I wouldn't have to worry with your 30,000 armored troops. But now, only half of your 30,000 armored troops can be mobilized, so I can only remind you like this.

This time, besides saying goodbye to you, I have brought all the supplies you need that I could. I also brought you some bows and crossbows. Bows and crossbows will be even more important in mountain warfare.

There is no more to say. I believe that we will definitely meet again in the future!" Li Shimin understood the implicit meaning of Li Yuanji's words, which was to completely ignore the fight between him and Li Jiancheng, and no longer thought about the words of persuasion.

Li Yuanji also understood what Li Shimin said. His words "we will definitely meet again" already showed Li Shimin's determination to win.

Li Shimin drank it all in one gulp. The two chatted for a while and then Li Shimin went back.

Li Yuanji was alone in the pavilion, but he suddenly smiled. He really didn't expect that Li Shimin's attitude towards him had changed so strangely.

Although he had no hostility towards Li Shimin after his arrival, and he did that to gather equipment, in addition to these reasons, in Li Yuanji's view, the most important thing was probably that he knew the times and went to Lingnan and no longer got involved in the mess here.

Just as Li Yuanji was deep in thought, a servant came to report that Li Jiancheng had arrived.

After hearing this, Li Yuanji reacted immediately. He understood that the two men might have discussed it and came on the same day.

Li Yuanji asked someone to serve good wine again, but he didn't touch the food at all and continued eating it.

When he arrived at the front yard and saw Li Jiancheng, Li Yuanji immediately went to greet him.

"Brother, you're here, let's go have a drink."

After hearing this, Li Jiancheng followed Li Yuanji directly to the pavilion. When he saw the wine and food, he immediately smiled.

"Yuanji, this time, in addition to coming to see you, I have also brought all the supplies you need, as well as some food and bows and crossbows. The journey to Lingnan is long, so you must be careful along the way.

After entering Lingnan, although no one will dare to harm you, you still need to watch out for trouble. Many people there do not submit to the king, so be extra careful.

I don't know when we will meet again when I go to Lingnan. Although I am reluctant to let you go, Yuanji has such great ambitions, and as his eldest brother, I should support him even more.

When you have settled down in Lingnan, come back often if you have time in the future. If you encounter any difficulties there, just tell me. I will definitely help you if I can! "

Li Jiancheng looked at Li Yuanji with eyes full of reluctance, and his whole body showed his true feelings, but deep down, he really didn't want Li Yuanji to stay. After all, he had already thought of a way to deal with Li Shimin, and now he just had to wait for Li Yuanji to go to Lingnan.

Li Yuanji listened to Li Jiancheng's words, but he didn't believe them completely. If he didn't know much, he would really believe this man's lies.

Li Yuanji had seen through Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin. They were both hypocritical. They said one thing but might not necessarily think the same thing in their hearts.

Li Yuanji then responded, "Brother, I don't want to do that either, but as the King of Qi, I should make contributions to the Tang Dynasty.

I will be very careful when I go to Lingnan. When I am stable in Lingnan, I will come back to Chang'an to see you if I have the chance."

The two had an in-depth conversation, and as they drank, they became more and more emotional.

Fortunately, Li Jiancheng did not stay for long and went back. When Li Jiancheng left, Li Yuanji suddenly woke up.

He found it more and more interesting. His two brothers were more cunning and confident than each other. Both of them firmly believed that they would be the winner.

The feeling that the two people gave him was a little weird, always strange. They looked the same as before, but also a little different. Li Yuanji couldn't explain it for a while, but this weird feeling was always there.

Li Yuanji was too lazy to think about these things. What these two people sent now had completely solved his material problems, and there was even a lot more. The money and grain from the aristocratic families were also shipped in one after another. He was now a local rich man.

Besides, Li Yuan's gift had not been delivered yet, and Li Yuanji was still fantasizing about his dream of becoming completely rich.

As expected, one still has to cry to get things, otherwise where would one get so much money, food, and various weapons and supplies?
