However, there are also reasons why their heirs are struggling.
Today, among the juniors of the Dugu family, there is only one person left.
The little boy is only five years old this year, and he also boarded the boat, holding his finger in his mouth, looking eagerly at the plate of candied fruit in front of Liu Bai.
Others don't know the origin of this brat, but Liu Bai knows it clearly.
This little kid named Dugu Mou will marry Li Er's No.14 daughter, Princess Ankang, in the future.
Moreover, he is not the blood of the Dugu family at all.
Strictly speaking, his ancestors are closer to the Li family.
Both came from the Li family in Longxi, and was given the surname Dugu because of his military exploits during the Northern Anniversary.
Liu Bai didn't bother to care about the twists and turns of the aristocratic family.
People are happy, and others can't control it.
After giving the candied fruit to the kid, Liu Bai began to explain to the old men the rules of playing mahjong.
wow——
A box of mahjong turned over on the table.
While shuffling the cards, Li Yuan muttered, "How much does it cost to carve ivory? Why use wood?"
The older the old man became, the more picky he became. He always felt that mahjong made of wood was not worthy of his noble status.
After a lap, the old man 'turned anger into joy'.
Everyone, including Liu Bai, owed him six taels of gold.
Dugu Mou ate candied fruit all over his face, his big eyes didn't know what he saw.
Suddenly ran to Liu Bai's feet and whispered a few words.
Li Yuan said with a smile: "Little hozen, could it be that you peeked at the old man's card and plan to claim credit from Liu Bai?"
After listening to the little boy's words, Liu Bai immediately became unhappy, stretched out his hand to Li Yuan, and said bluntly, "Repay the money!"
A look of panic flashed in Li Yuan's eyes.
"How much money? If you lose to the old man, do you still want to get it back?"
Dugu Mou was able to show half of his head on the table by jumping high.
"Grandpa Huang is lying, I just saw you hiding cards!"
Li Yuan touched his nose in embarrassment, and then said angrily: "When did the old man hide the card? I need to show evidence!"
The two old men, Dugu Lan and Dugu Cheng, glared at the little kid at the same time.
Dugu Cheng, who was closer, scolded angrily: "Shut up! What do children know?"
Seeing Dugu Mou's grievance tears were about to fall, Liu Bai whispered a few words to him.
The tears on Dugu Mou's eyes disappeared immediately.
He ran to Li Yuan's side, and from the small drawer, he took out a piece of nine pieces of paper.
"Grandpa Huang hid this card in gold. I saw it all just now. I didn't lie!"
After saying a word, Dugu Cheng and Dugu Lan all stood up.
He seemed a little terrified.
Liu Bai felt that this little brat was particularly pleasing to the eye.
"Old man, if you are caught on the spot, you will pay three times the compensation. We lost a total of 18 taels of gold to you, which is 54 taels. If there is no gold to pay, then we will pay you an IOU!"
Chapter 713 You Are Personal Again
Li Yuan babbled a few words, then reluctantly took out all the gold, seeing that the small drawer was more than half empty, Li Yuan gave Dugu Mou a hard look.
Dugu Mou didn't think much of it.
In the world of children, right is right and wrong is wrong.
Since you made a mistake, of course you have to admit your mistake and make amends.
The Supreme Emperor doesn't have many heads, so why make an exception?
But Li Yuan was frightened by Dugu Cheng and Dugu Lan at this glance.
Although the two old men said that they made great contributions to Datang, there are too many people who have made great contributions to Datang!
Which onions are they?
If it weren't for relying on the Supreme Emperor to remember the past, I am afraid they would not even be qualified to board the ship.
On weekdays, Dugu Cheng loves Dugu Mou very much, and completely treats him as his own grandson.
However, the opinion of the Supreme Emperor is related to the future of the family.
His heart broke, and he said angrily: "Nie Yi, kneel down!"
Dugu Mou's small head is so weird, he knows that the only person present who doesn't need to give face to the Supreme Emperor, and who is also not afraid of his two grandfathers is Liu Bai!
He simply hid behind Liu Bai, revealing one eye, secretly watching Li Yuan's reaction.
Dugu Cheng and Dugu Lan were terrified.
In a hurry, he knelt on the ground.
"Your Majesty, this villain is rude and barbaric. The old minister will definitely punish him severely. You must, please don't get angry!"
Li Yuan was amused by Dugu Mou's reaction.
When people are old, they like children.
Honestly, no one likes a kid like a stake.
The more mischievous and clever the child, the more favored the old men are.
This child knows how to assess the situation and where to hide, so he can't suffer.
As for the embarrassment of hiding cards, it has long been overwhelmed by the overlord's mind and increasingly thick skin.
"You're really a little hozen, come here, let Grandpa Huang take a good look at you!"
Li Yuan beckoned Dugu Mou to come over.
As for the two old guys, he simply ignored them.
Liu Bai smiled and said, "The Supreme Emperor is calling you, why don't you go over quickly?"
Dugu Mou tiptoed forward, seeming to be a little scared, but also a little excited.
The children of the aristocratic family, no matter how young and naive they are, know how to think about the future of the family.
He was very clear that his actions today did not seem to anger the Supreme Emperor.
On the contrary, it seems to have won the favor of the emperor
He first came to Dugu Cheng and Dugu Lan's side, grinning his teeth and helping the two old men up.
Only then did he come to Li Yuan.
This move instantly made Li Yuan's affection for him greatly increased.
Rubbing Dugu Mou's little head, Li Yuan said with a smile: "You are indeed a good boy, we Jinyang children should have this kind of courage not to fear life and death!"
As he spoke, he squeezed Dugu Mou's arm.
"It's just that your body is a little weak. In the future, eat more meat and exercise your body. Whatever the emperor says, he will reward you as a great general!"
As soon as this remark came out, the two old men Dugu Cheng and Dugu Lan felt relieved.
Dugu Mou, who was praised by the Supreme Emperor, has two small crescent moons in his eyes, which looks very cute.
He suddenly knelt on the ground with a 'plop', "Thank you, Grandpa, for the reward!"
Li Yuan and Liu Bai were startled at the same time.
This little brat climbed up the pole, this kneeling, it can be regarded as confirming Li Yuan's words.
As long as he becomes an adult, his martial arts are decent, and he can't escape the position of a general.
It is about the face of the Supreme Emperor, and the position of a mere general is nothing.
Liu Bai sighed in his heart.
Another genius
Over the past few years, he has seen countless monsters.
Like Li Tai, who belongs to the top evildoers, it may not be possible to produce one in hundreds of years.
Li Chengqian, Li Ke and others were slightly inferior, but they could still be called rare.
Now, Liu Bai still doesn't know much about Dugumou.
But judging from his actions just now, at least he won't be much worse than Li Chengqian and the others.
In terms of family background, he was born in the Dugu family, and his starting point was several mountains higher than others.
His father, Dugu Yanyun, among the nine generals who accompanied Li Er to the Xuanwu Gate, was the only one who was not hated by Li Yuan.
He was also the only one among the nine generals who did not kill anyone in the palace.
Moreover, Dugu Yanyun was the highest ranking officer who died in the battle against the Turkic army the year before last.
With this kind of incense, no matter how you look at it, Dugumou's future will be promising.
Moreover, Dugu Mou in history is a rare general.
It's just that in the Zhenguan years when the stars were shining, she didn't look so brilliant.
With this child here, Dugu's future can be expected!
The two old men, Dugu Cheng and Dugu Lan, also saw clearly.
The fear in my heart disappeared without a trace in an instant, and was replaced by joy in my heart.
Mahjong is played round and round.
Li Yuan, who doesn't steal, rape and play tricks, is still "killing the Quartet".
Li Yuan, who was originally very particular about health preservation, should have gone to bed long ago.
After finding the plaything, he forcibly dragged Liu Bai and the others until late at night.
In the end, everyone lost hundreds of taels of gold, and finally ended the game.
Dugu Mou had already fallen asleep sitting on the pony horse beside him.
Li Yuan drove Liu Bai and the others away, still rolling the dice ecstatically, and he didn't know how much longer he would practice.
Xu Chu hugged Dugu Mou, who was sound asleep, and followed Liu Bai and others out of Li Yuan's cabin.
As soon as the door was closed, the two old men bowed to Liu Bai.
"Thank you Mr. Liu for rescuing this evil obstacle!"
Dugu Cheng's face was full of gratitude.
He knew very well that if there was no Liu Bai today, even if the Supreme Emperor was not angry, he would still have opinions on the Dugu family.
Although the Dugu family is the mother clan of the Supreme Emperor, the people closest to him by blood are almost dead.
The blood relationship between Dugu Cheng and the others is more than one layer away from Li Yuan.
If it wasn't for the thin population, it wouldn't be their turn to seek out relatives with Li Yuan.
Liu Bai glanced at Dugu Mou, and said with a smile: "You two don't have to be so polite, it's a beautiful thing to make the old man happy."
Dugu Cheng and Dugu Lan looked at each other, as if they had made some decision.
"Young Master Liu, I heard that your family plans to go to Lingnan to do some business?"
Without what they said later, Liu Bai could guess that they wanted to have a share in Lingnan's business.
It's just that they don't know whether they are trying to repay today's favor, or they have other plans.
"It's just a small fight."
