Li Zhi, don't be a coward

Chapter 114 Returning and coming, father's love hits

Modern people are educated in materialism, and most of them don't shy away from death.

Even in the romantic moments before the flowers and the moon, the girl will beat her chest with her fists and say "you are going to die" coquettishly, or say "I am going to die" in other places and in other ways after the heat.

What is there to avoid about death?Everyone has that day.

The ancients were different, they were very taboo about this word.

Song Guanshi looked at Li Qinzai speechlessly, you are really cruel to yourself in order not to see customers.

Li Qinzai was very irritable, he really didn't want to teach students, especially a group of princes and powerful children, it was more troublesome to discipline.

He is cold by nature, he doesn't want to disturb other people's lives, and he doesn't like to be disturbed by others. Now a group of strangers suddenly come and forcibly participate in his life. From now on, he will have to sacrifice part of his time every day to deal with these strangers. How could Li Qinzai not bother?

If the so-called sudden death was just a temporary vent of anger, since there was an imperial edict from Li Zhi, Li Qinzai had no choice but to go out to meet them.

Before he walked out of the gate of the other courtyard, Li Qinzai's face was full of displeasure, and anyone could tell at a glance that he was in a bad mood.

When he came to the gate, a group of children were standing outside the gate, looking at him curiously.

Li Qinzai looked around and found that the oldest of these children was no more than eleven or twelve years old, and the youngest was about the same age as Qiao'er, about a dozen of them.

Surrounding them were a group of warriors dressed as generals, obviously escorting the group of children, and there were several eunuchs and housekeepers standing in the crowd.

Seeing Li Qinzai coming out, the crowd fell silent immediately, and the leading prince took two steps forward and bowed to Li Qinzai.

"The fourth son of the emperor, Li Sujie, pays homage to Mr. Li."

The rebellious prince in the back also stepped forward and said: "Li Xian, the seventh son of the emperor, pay my respects to Mr. Li."

The prince took the lead in saluting, followed by a group of rich and powerful children, and then reported to their families.

Some of these people were born in generals, and some were born in civil servants. Speaking of their parents and grandparents, they were all well-known high officials in Chang'an City.

Li Qinzai's eyelids twitched a few times when he heard everyone report to his house, especially at the leader, the fourth son Li Sujie and the seventh son Li Xianduo.

Li Sujie, the title of King Xun, was born of Concubine Xiao Shu. After the incident of abolishing Wang Liwu, Concubine Xiao Shu was hanged and killed by Empress Wu, but her son Li Sujie was not affected. status.

How could the enemy's son have a good time in Empress Wu's heart?
Li Xian, the seventh son of the emperor, the king of England, the third son of Empress Wu, his own.

Anyone who is familiar with history knows that the future Li Xian can be said to be a relatively famous emperor in Chinese history.

He is famous because his father Li Zhi is the emperor, his mother Wu Zetian is the emperor, his younger brother Li Dan is the emperor, his son Li Chongmao is the emperor, his nephew Li Longji is the emperor, and he himself is Tang Zhongzong and the emperor.

Parents, brothers, nephews, and a whole family are emperors, which is very strange.

The famous "Six Emperor Pills" refers to Li Xian.

Today's Li Xian is just a prince, and the current crown prince is Li Hong, the eldest son of Empress Wu, who was registered in the first year of Xianqing.

It's okay for the other rich and powerful children, Li Qinzai's heart sank when he saw the two princes.

One is the son of Empress Wu's enemy, the other is the biological son of Empress Wu, half-brothers who are at odds with each other, both come here to study...

Li Qinzai believed that Li Zhi would not make such an arrangement for no reason, what was his plan?
Li Qinzai suddenly realized that this was not just teaching students, he seemed to be involved in court politics for no reason.

So Li Qinzai hurriedly returned the gift, looked at the crowd and said earnestly: "You two princes, and you little brothers..."

"Ms. Li is not talented enough to teach you all knowledge. There is already an ancient book on arithmetic. There is no need for Mr. Li to repeat it. I can't learn anything good from me. Please go back to Chang'an after all your hard work."

The words were polite, and the intention of refusal was obvious. Anyway, Li Qinzai didn't want to teach.

He taught Qiao'er because he was his own, so why teach these bastards in front of him?Li Qinzai was not great enough to be a rural teacher.

Waving his hand, Li Qinzai made a smirk: "Go back, everyone, ah, after returning to Chang'an, you can tell your majesty that Li Qinzai is just a deceitful person with no real skills at all, please despise me as much as you can... "

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, all looking a little helpless.

This wave of operations was really unexpected. They thought it was a question of whether they were willing to learn, but they didn't expect that they would not teach at all. Thinking about the disguised appearance when they entered the village just now, everyone felt even more ashamed.

Li Sujie, the leader, was in a hurry.

Today's Li Sujie's position in the palace is very embarrassing. He is a prince, but he is not seen by Empress Wu.

His mother, Concubine Xiao Shu, was hanged to death by Empress Wu, and the cruel and fierce struggle in the harem inevitably affected him.

It was not easy to get the will of his own father to let him go out of the palace to learn from Li Qinzai. For Li Sujie, this was the only way to get out of the palace and gain freedom. died.

Li Sujie is 12 years old this year. In an ordinary family, 12 years old is still an ignorant age.

But growing up in the palace, he was very mature at the age of 12, especially after his mother was hanged to death, Li Sujie already understood the right and wrong, forbearance and compromise, and the difficulty of living.

"Mr. Li, next time Li Sujie sincerely wants to learn from you, please take him in." Li Sujie made a long bow with an anxious expression on his face.

Li Sujie has his own reasons, but others are not so eager.

Originally, they only came here on order. They are not keen on studying. They are all children of high-ranking families. If they are rejected by others, they will not insist on it. They pull their faces and beg him. Please forgive them for not being able to do it, and it is not in the way of a gentleman wind.

After a quick exchange of glances, everyone, headed by King Li Xian, saluted Li Qinzai, took their leave, turned around and left obediently.

Seeing everyone turning around, Li Sujie became more and more desperate, everyone left, but he refused to leave.

Although Li Sujie is not very old, the subconscious mind in his heart seems to be telling him that only by grasping the life-saving straw in front of him can he have a chance of survival.

Li Qinzai watched the crowd walk away with a smile, and heaved a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, they are all little brats, easy to fool, and dismissed in a few words. The beautiful waste life has not been disturbed, very kind!
Add chicken legs tonight, one for myself and one for buckwheat.

Seeing Li Sujie standing alone at the door, Li Qinzai did not treat him differently, but smiled apologetically at him, pretending that Li Sujie also left with the crowd.

After laughing, he ordered the steward to close the door. Outside the empty door, only Li Sujie stood alone.

In the evening, Qiao'er, who had been wild in Zhuangzi all day, came back. The father and son had dinner, and Li Qinzai held Qiao'er in his arms and told him stories.

Storytelling is also a daily parent-child activity between father and son.

Li Qinzai is also a father for the first time, and he doesn't know how to teach children, so he can only copy what he did in his previous life, making toys, learning enlightenment, telling stories, etc., and taking good care of his son's basic necessities of life, paying attention to nutrition, giving him more company, etc. .

Li Qinzai is trying his best to do what a father should and can do.

When Qiao'er grows up to pick up girls in the future, if he wants to play the role of bitterness in front of girls, saying that childhood is full of darkness, unhappy, and life is bitter, Li Qinzai promises not to beat him to death.

It was already winter, and a charcoal fire was lit in the front hall, and the father and son snuggled up beside the charcoal fire. Today Li Qinzai told Qiao'er the story of the gourd baby.

Just as he was talking about the tense plot of Liu Wa's stealth to save his grandfather, Manager Song came over rubbing his hands.

"Wu Shaolang, all the rich and powerful children have left during the day, but there is still a prince who has not left. According to the part of the mansion, he and his followers pitched a tent at the entrance of the village, and it seems that he does not plan to leave..."

Li Qinzai's eyes flickered, thinking: "Is it Li Sujie, the fourth son of the emperor?"

"Yes."

Li Qinzai was unmoved.

He is not Li Sujie's father, so he has no obligation to help Li Sujie, and he doesn't want to get involved in the harem battle. With his current status and weight, he can't afford to offend Empress Wu.

"I'll just pretend I don't know about it, you go down." Li Qinzai waved his hand.

Song Guanshi hesitated to speak, but he still sighed, bowed and left.

The next day, another day of doing nothing, every day.Wake up and open your eyes, don't have to plan what you have to do today, what pressure you have to face today.

Li Qinzai has no pressure, except for the lack of a wife, his life is already perfect.

And the mother-in-law is not in a hurry. If you really can't find a suitable one, there is a beautiful woman living not far from him.

In this kind of life, just ask whether you are happy or not, whether you are successful or not?
In the evening again, the heart-stopping thing came.

Not a few of the princes and noble children who left Zhuangzi yesterday to return to Chang'an have returned.

Just like yesterday's scene, there were hundreds of entourages and guards. Li Xian and the rich and powerful children gathered at the gate of Li's courtyard with mournful faces.

Looking carefully, some people still had a bright red slap mark on their faces, and the younger ones stood in front of the door, sobbing and sobbing.

Obviously, after these children were fooled back by Li Qinzai, they were hit hard by their father's love again.
