Li Zhi, don't be a coward

Chapter 744
From Li Ji's words, Li Qinzai heard the meaning.

The decision to Fengchan Taishan is likely to be withdrawn, and subsequently, road construction and construction of palaces in various places will also be stopped, young and strong peasants will be sent back to their hometowns to farm, and the treasury expenditure will also be suspended. consumption.

It's finally time for the emperor to take back this damn evil policy.

Today's court meeting was obviously not in vain, and Li Qinzai suddenly felt that he had done something very meaningful.

As for the emperor needing a step down, it doesn't matter, give as many steps as you want.

Your Majesty's, "Majesty" means steps, which means that people are born to be people who need to step down.

This is good news, and it deserves to be clarified.

Tonight, I must find a few friends to get together, to reminisce about the scenery of the long-lost dude walking in Mazhangtai.

"Come here, please Xue Nagaoqi and the others, tonight, I will find a hundred girls from the brothel in the most luxurious brothel in Pingkang Fang! My treat!" Li Qinzai turned his head and shouted at the servants.

There was a roar in the ear: "The beast is arrogant! Is the old man dead?"

Li Qinzai was shocked, and suddenly found that Li Ji was still by his side, and hurriedly lowered his eyebrows and looked obediently: "Don't dare, grandson is happy for a while, just want to stimulate the domestic demand of our Tang Dynasty..."

Licking his dry lips, Li Qinzai tentatively said, "Grandfather has done a great job at today's court meeting. Why don't my grandson find two girls to pout for you? Let's celebrate with two gun salutes."

Li Ji began to look left and right, Li Qinzai's eyelids twitched, and he hurriedly grabbed Li Ji's unicorn arm that was about to move.

"Grandpa, grandson is wrong." Li Qinzai admitted decisively.

Li Ji snorted angrily: "As soon as things started to improve, you lost your mind. Don't forget that His Majesty has not formally issued an edict to suspend the enshrinement, so there are variables in this matter, understand?"

"Grandson understands," Li Qinzai blinked, and then flattered Li Ji: "Today, grandson saw grandpa's heroic appearance at the court meeting, which is worthy of the famous meritorious deeds of the three dynasties. As soon as you appeared, everyone in the hall respected you." He is so respectful and respectful that his grandson admires and envies him..."

Some flattery made Li Ji's eyes smile.

Among the descendants of the Li family, Li Ji only favored Li Qinzai, after all, there was a reason.

The other grandsons were terrified in front of him, and they didn't dare to breathe. Only this grandson, no matter what his expression and mood, was never frightened. He was both happy and blushing, but he was very comfortable in his heart.

How could Li Ji not favor such a capable and chatty grandson?

"Get out!" Li Ji scolded happily with a smile.

"Grandson finally knows what Grandpa said before, I underestimated the meaning of the Duke of England too much. In today's court meeting, even the Son of Heaven treated Grandpa with such respect and courtesy. Presumably, the Son of Heaven's holy family and trust in Grandpa is unparalleled in the world."

Li Ji stroked his beard, and said with a smile: "The old man has been upright and standing upright all these years, and he is only loyal to the emperor. Of course, the emperor trusts this old man."

"In the 23rd year of Zhenguan, Emperor Taizong was seriously ill. Before he died, the first emperor relegated the old man to Diezhou as the governor for no reason, and ordered the old man to go out of the city immediately to take up his post."

"At that time, the old man took the order and didn't even return home. He only brought the appointment document from the Ministry of War and a few parts. After leaving the palace, he went straight to the city gate and left Longxi to take up his post."

"After this incident, the late emperor and today's emperor trusted me completely. A few months later, when the late emperor passed away, the emperor recalled the old man to Chang'an, sealed him as the third division of Kaifu Yitong, and read out the late emperor's last decree. Together with the old man and the three to assist the new emperor, from then on, the emperor has never doubted the old man, and has trusted him ever since."

Speaking of the past, Li Ji's eyes flickered, with a little emotion on his expression.

Li Qinzai suddenly realized why Li Zhi trusted Li Ji so much.

It's not just that Li Ji was in the right position in the matter of abolishing the king and establishing the military, but as early as the Zhenguan period, Li Ji had already won the unconditional favor of two generations of emperors.

After many years, Li Qinzai could still imagine the edict that Li Shimin gave to Li Ji when he was critically ill, and how dangerous Li Ji's situation was at that time.

If Li Ji hesitated a little and refused to leave Chang'an after receiving the order, then waiting for Li Ji would not be a good end.

Li Ji didn't even return home after receiving the edict, and only took a few of his followers directly out of the city to take up the post. This move undoubtedly reassured both Li Shimin and Li Zhi. This was both a test and a screening.

So after Li Shimin's death, Li Ji was immediately recalled to Chang'an, and he was tied with the eldest grandson Wuji Chu Suiliang, becoming one of the three important ministers who supported Gu.

As time passed, Changsun Wuji and Chu Suiliang fell down. Among the three important ministers, only Li Ji was safe and sound, and he was getting better and better. It can be seen how impeccable Li Ji's daily life is.

Of course, when the emperors of the past dynasties changed, it was commonplace to suppress important courtiers first and then promote them.

Li Qinzai didn't know how the other brothers in the family were in awe of Li Ji, but he himself liked chatting with Li Ji, especially listening to the old man talk about all kinds of secret stories back then. Fascinating.

That night, Li Qinzai really called Xue Negaoqi.

The three brothers haven't seen each other for a long time, and everyone's changes are not small.

Gao Qi's demeanor is becoming more and more elegant. According to him, he is studying at home recently, and rarely hangs out with the dudes in Chang'an City.

His father, Gao Zhenxing, saw that his son was reborn, and he couldn't help crying. He not only went to the temple to donate a large sum of incense money to the Bodhisattva, but also made a vow in front of the Buddha, and became a vegetarian for half a year. .

Li Qinzai was heartbroken when he heard that, you cried at the wrong grave, obviously I should be the one to thank you, you come to me to fulfill your wish, I don’t care if you eat vegetarian or not, how much incense money does you mean...

In contrast, Xue Ne's temperament is a bit indescribable.

I don't know how big a deal this guy has done, and now it can be regarded as completely reborn.

The jade belt around her waist was inlaid with gold and jade, the hairpin on her head was white jade inlaid with emeralds, two huge gold bracelets were worn on her wrists, and the clothes on her body were also embroidered with many gold threads.

The whole person looks like a walking cash machine, no matter where he walks, he seems to be sending out a warm invitation to the bandits around him.

Come on, come on, I have money, come and grab me...

"Brother Jingchu, you want me too!" Xue Na came up with a bear hug.

Li Qinzai pushed him away in disgust.

There is a rotten copper smell, which makes people... quite like it.

"How much money have you made recently?" Li Qinzai asked Xue Na, looking him up and down.

Xue Na revealed a restrained and proud expression, smiled and posed a pose, inadvertently revealing the pair of gold bracelets on his wrist: "Not much, not much, just barely making a living."
