"This can't..." Before Li Yin finished speaking, Si Zi had already reached out and grabbed a piece in her mouth. After all, she was only a three-year-old girl, and she had no idea about pork, mutton, nobles, and common people. , eat whatever you want.

"Brother Six, this meat is so delicious!" Sizi's eyes lit up immediately after eating the first piece, and he couldn't wait to grab another piece and stuff it into his mouth. After watching Sizi eat the braised pork, he ate all the other dishes.

"Ninth Brother Nine, you guys... Hurry up and try it too, this dish is delicious!" Si Zi shouted to Li Zhi and the others while stuffing it into his own mouth.

Among the many princes and princesses, Sizi is famous for her mouth. Seeing her eating so happily, Li Zhi and Qinghe were also a little moved, and they stood up and ran to Li Yin's table.

"Hey, why are you joining in the fun? This is pork. Don't discredit our royal family." Seeing that Li Zhi and the others had also come, Li Yin hurriedly scolded.But he, the sixth brother, has never had much prestige, so Qinghe and the others simply pretended they didn't hear about it.Capital Datang 59

After all, Li Zhi is a boy, and he is more courageous. Seeing that the crystal clear skin jelly seemed delicious, he tasted it first. As soon as he was full, Li Zhi, like Si Zi, began to stuff his mouth desperately. Now Qinghe and Gao Yang also threw away their reserve and took action, joining the ranks of looting.

"You little fellows, this is my medicine!" Li Yin was still making the final struggle. Originally, he only planned to take it by himself, so he didn't ask the fifth child to make much. Now it's not enough for them. Divided by five people.

"Sixth brother, don't be so stingy, don't you just order pork!" Qinghe raised his head and said with a smile, then immediately lowered his head and started to grab the last piece of braised pork with Gao Yang.

Seeing this gang of greedy cats, Li Yin also gave up his last effort, and finally simply gave up his seat to them, and went to eat duck and fish in his seat. In fact, these things are also very good, especially the ice plum The duck and the Yellow River carp are both so authentic that even Li Yin can't fault them.

After eating, Li Yin played with them for a while, and then sent them back to the palace in person, but his son was very reluctant to part with Li Yin, and took his hand and didn't want to go back to the palace. Finally, Li Yin agreed. Sizi will go to the palace to play with her tomorrow, and the little girl walked into the palace gate with three steps and one turn.

In the Liangyi Hall of the Taiji Palace, Li Shimin was frowning as he watched a memorial. Fang Xuanling and Li Jing sat below, and the memorial was presented through them.

"Your Majesty, General Niu sent someone to send news that they will arrive in Chang'an in a few days, but the messenger also sent this memorial. The above statement is very detrimental to the situation in Jiannan in the Tang Dynasty!" Fang Xuanling When Li Shimin had finished reading, he stood up and said.

"Well, I also know that the south is hotter than Guanzhong, but I didn't expect the situation to be so serious. Three out of ten soldiers are sick. This is really..." Li Shimin put down the memorial and said in a heavy tone at the end. I can't say anything below.

The memorial was sent by Niu Jinda, who was on his way to Chang'an. He reported a very bad news to Li Shimin. Most of the [-] elite soldiers he brought over were from Guanzhong, except for some meritorious men who came back with him this time. , Most of them stayed where they were for repairs. Now the weather in Jiannan is extremely hot and humid, and the Guanzhong children who stayed near Songzhou couldn't adapt. [-] to [-]% fell ill because they couldn't stand the hot weather.

"Your Majesty, for the current plan, we must withdraw the seriously ill soldiers as soon as possible, otherwise the morale of the army will change!" Li Jing also stood up and said with a heavy face. Gap, established a stronghold on the Tubo Plateau for military training. Unexpectedly, an accident happened now. If Songzhou withdraws troops, the stronghold on the Tubo Plateau will be abandoned. If you want to enter the Tubo Plateau again in the future, you will not Know when to wait.

"I'm not reconciled! Such a good situation, can we just give up because of this little accident?" Li Shimin slammed his fist on the table angrily and growled. The letter from Songtsan Gampo last time had already made him feel bad. Tubo has murderous intentions, and now he has finally gained the upper hand. It is a good time to completely suppress Tubo, how can he give up so easily?

But no matter how unwilling Li Shimin is, there is nothing he can do about it. After all, three or four people in the army are sick, and the rest are panicked. Fortunately, these 3 people are the elites of the Tang Dynasty. Under our pressure, the morale of the army is still stable now. If it were replaced by other troops that were not as good as it was, it would probably have developed into a riot by now.General Niu Jinda only received the news on the way, and now he was hesitating on the way. At the end of the memorial, he asked Li Shimin whether he should go back to Jiannan first, in case something happened inside the army.

"Father, you are losing your temper again!" At this moment, a childish voice came from the entrance of the hall, and then a small figure ran into the hall, and threw himself into Li Shimin's arms with a smile on his face.

Li Shimin, who was still full of anger just now, hugged the visitor, his face turned into a smiling face, and said dotingly: "Sis, it's so late, why haven't you slept yet?" Anger turns into joy, and the only one who can break into Liangyi Hall without any notification is our Royal Highness Princess Jinyang.

Seeing Li Shimin's complexion change so quickly, he put aside business matters and started teasing with his daughter instead, both Fang Xuanling and Li Jing secretly smiled wryly in their hearts: As a rare wise monarch, His Majesty, no matter in politics or in military affairs, has everything to do. He is a very good emperor, but when it comes to dealing with his children, he often appears very naive.For example, although the eldest son Li Chengqian has been established as the prince, he loves the fourth prince Li Tai very much, and even allows him to open a recruiting hall, which is the treatment only a prince can have.This also caused Li Tai to covet the position of the crown prince. He fought with the crown prince Li Chengqian openly and secretly, and even the court was affected.If Li Shimin said that he loves Li Tai without restraint, then he loves this Princess Jinyang irrationally. Whenever this little princess comes to him, Li Shimin will immediately put aside his political affairs and come to accompany his daughter. Even the big things will be put aside.Fortunately, although this princess of Jinyang is young, she is very sensible and rarely bothers Li Shimin, but I don't know why she suddenly came here today?

"Father, today Sizi learned a trick from Sixth Brother, can Sizi change for you?" Sizi said to Li Shimin in a childish voice.Fang Xuanling and Li Jing smiled wryly again, they were discussing important matters in Jiannan here, how could they have time to watch a child do tricks?

"Okay, my father likes to watch magic tricks the most." Li Shimin hugged his son and smiled, the answer was as expected.

"Look, father, this is your teacup." Sizi reached for the teacup on the table, and there was still undrinked herbal tea in it.As a child, of course she would not let go of something interesting, so when Sizi returned to the palace, she asked Li Yin for a lot of saltpeter. There was a performance there, and both of them were terrified, thinking that Sizi would know some kind of magic at a young age.

Sizi has a strong ability to imitate, and he has imitated Li Yin's appearance of pretending to be a magic stick. Even Fang Xuanling and Li Jing, who are full of state affairs, are so amused by the little girl's appearance that they want to laugh.Capital Datang 59

"Father, look, it's changed~" Sizi didn't know how to say the clumsy 'quick as a law', and could only yell to attract Li Shimin's attention to the table, and then suddenly opened his sleeves.Although I have done this set of movements several times, it may be because I was too excited in front of my father. I didn’t grasp the bag of saltpeter in my sleeve, so I threw the bag out at once, and a lot of saltpeter was scattered. Fang Xuanling in front couldn't dodge in time, and all of them fell on him at once.

"Ah!" Sizi yelled in disappointment, his heart was full of annoyance, there was nothing wrong with his mother and concubine Yang, but why did he have something wrong with his father?

"Hahaha~, son, what are you doing? Are you trying to plot against Mr. Fang?" Li Shimin laughed seeing Fang Xuanling's disheveled look, his attention was all caught by the saltpeter powder flying out. The attraction passed, and I didn't notice the change of the teacup on the table at all.

"Forgive me, Mr. Si, I was wrong." Although she was full of disappointment, she did not forget the etiquette, and jumped down from Li Shimin's arms to apologize to Fang Xuanling.

"Hehe, it's okay! It's okay!" The so-called prime minister can support himself, of course Fang Xuanling would not care about such a trivial matter.

"Huh? This...how is this possible?" At this moment, Li Jing who was beside Fang Xuanling suddenly took two steps forward, staring at the teacup on the table and muttering to himself with an expression of disbelief.

Li Shimin and Fang Xuanling were also attracted by Li Jing's appearance, and when they saw the teacup on the table, they were also taken aback immediately. They saw that the teacup covered by the sleeve just now had formed a crystal clear piece. Ice, there are still a few pieces of tea leaves frozen in the brown ice cube, and there is a trace of cold air coming out of the ice.

"This... this..." Li Shimin rubbed his eyes with his hands, but also couldn't believe it. Finally, he reached out to pick up the teacup, and felt the piercing cold on his face, and then he believed that he really wasn't In the dream, Fang Xuanling's performance was similar, but he kept pinching his arm.

"Hee hee~" Seeing the appearance of his father, Fang, and Li, the two ministers, Sizi couldn't help it anymore, covered his mouth and laughed out loud, and the frustration of not being able to do the trick just now was swept away.

"Si, what's going on, how did you turn the water into ice?" Li Shimin asked with a puzzled expression.

"Hee hee, father, you guess!" Sizi said mischievously, "Fang Xiang and Uncle Li also help father guess together!"

Although they were shocked by the sight in front of them, Li Shimin and the three of them were extremely talented, and they quickly thought of the white powder scattered from Si's sleeves.Fang Xuanling picked up the bag of saltpeter from the ground, wiped a little bit out on his nose, smelled it, and said with certainty: "This is saltpeter!"

"Saltpeter? Could it be..." Li Jing frowned, and took the teacup from his table. Fang Xuanling also thought of this, and poured the remaining saltpetre in the bag into the teacup.

"Oh~, it's so boring!" Seeing that the two elders had figured out his trick, Sizi said to himself very dissatisfied.

Although there was not much saltpetre left in the bag, it was enough to freeze a glass of water. After a while, the water surface began to be cold, and fine ice slag appeared.Seeing that their guess became a reality, both Li Jing and Fang Xuanling were overjoyed, sparks almost burst out of their eyes when they looked at Sizi.

Li Shimin looked at the teacup that was slowly freezing in Li Jing's hands. He was shocked at first, and then slowly turned into ecstasy. Finally, he couldn't help laughing loudly, and shouted while laughing: "God bless the Tang Dynasty~! God bless the Tang Dynasty!" Jiangshan! Hahahaha~"
