Datang: My father is the head bodyguard

Seeing that Yuchi Jingde was about to retreat, he quickly stood up.

"Your Majesty! I request you to lead the Tianwei Army for assault training in preparation for the battle with Goguryeo! I may not be able to go to court in the near future, and I plan to live in the military camp. Please agree to my request."

Li Shimin looked at his bodyguard leader and couldn't bear it: "Heilian, you just came back from Tubo. You have to take the Tianwei Army for training immediately. I can't bear it. It's better to rest at home and rest for half a month before making any plans. How are you?"

Yuchi Jingde's head was shaking like a rattle, and every hair on his body was written with rejection.

Yuchi Baoqi also helped at this time: "Your Majesty, my father is old. Forget about tossing me, don't toss him. Give my father a holiday. It's really good to take half a month off."

Yuchi Jingde rushed toward his son: "Little bastard, do you want your father to be beaten to death by your mother? If you have some conscience, take your father to Luoyang to avoid the limelight."

"Your Majesty, I impeach the Duke of Hubei, Lieutenant Chi Jingde, for defying the imperial court and intimidating and threatening the Duke of Hubei."

Li Shimin put his hand on his forehead and convinced the two talents: "What Xiaobao said makes sense, let's give Duke E a rest for half a month and then train the Tianwei Army. Duke Ying will choose a day to set off from Luoyang to supervise the construction of the dragon boat. .I am tired, Wang De!"

Wang De also knew that Li Shimin did not want to face these two geniuses, so he quickly shouted: "Today's work is over, retreat from the court!"

Wang De helped Li Shimin run along, and immediately disappeared without a trace.

Yuchi Baoqi and Yuchi Jingde, their father and son, were squatting at the entrance of Tai Chi Hall. The other ministers were already preparing to go home for dinner.

"The Queen is hosting a banquet in the Lizheng Hall to entertain my mother. Dad, why don't you go?" Yuchi Baoqi bowed to his father.

"This world is too beautiful, and dad hasn't seen enough." Sighing, Yuchi Jingde slowly uttered these sad words.

Yuchi Baoqi was confused: "Is it really so terrifying? Dad, tell me."

"Dip a whip in chili pepper water, pick out the flesh with your fingernails, pinch the roots of the thighs, and pull out the beard. Alas, I have been doing this for most of my life, and I will definitely not be able to escape this time."

Yuchi Baoqi felt a little scary just thinking about it: "My mother and Li Zhi have always been very friendly, so what about my married life? Aren't I just like you, dad?"

Yuchi Jingde patted his son on the shoulder: "It's hopeless. Just wait for death. Say goodbye."

"In that case, I will go back and pack my things now, and then go to Uncle Cheng's house to stay for one night. Dad, take care, and stay here." Yuchi Baoqi said and ran away.

Yuchi Jingde chased after him: "Dad also wants to stay at your Uncle Cheng's house for one night. Wait a minute, Daddy! You little bastard!"

"Dad! If you come with me, my mother won't kill you and capture us both. Dad, I'm still young!" Yuchi Baoqi ran faster after hearing this, for fear of being caught up.

Yuchi Baoqi ran back to his house. After explaining to Butler Su that he was going to Luoyang, he quickly started to pack his luggage.

"Travel lightly and simply, just bring two sets of clothes to change on the way, and buy them when you get to the place. The information is more important, and the rest can be tolerated. Uncle! Give this letter to the person in charge of the steel workshop and ask him to set off today. . I won’t go back tonight, I’m staying at Uncle Cheng’s house!” Yuchi Baoqi took her things and got into the carriage as if she were fleeing.

After a while, the carriage stopped in front of Su Guogong's mansion. When the porter saw the one-armed carriage driver, he knew it was someone from Yuchi's mansion and went in to report.

"Xiaobao, why are you here? The Baochao Department will arrange for His Majesty to come for portraits and inscriptions in the near future. It is basically closed. Are you here for this?" Cheng Chumo wore a short dress and looked very capable. .

Yuchi Baoqi hung the backpack with clothes on his shoulders, pulled Cheng Chumo and walked in: "Forget it, my mother caused trouble with that priceless gift list in court today. I have to stay at your house overnight. , otherwise I think I will be in trouble."

The story of the sky-high price of the gift bill has spread. It is said that the gift bill given by Yuchi's house to marry Princess Changle is unprecedented, and it is estimated that it will be rare in the future.

Cheng Chumo patted his chest: "It's okay, you can stay here tonight. You were so anxious just after going to court, have you eaten? How many dishes should I ask the kitchen to prepare?"

Yuchi Baoqi waved his hand: "I don't want to bother the people in your house anymore. Just ask the concierge to go to Baoli Building to bring some dishes over. Find me an empty study room where I can sleep."

After Cheng Chumo listened to Yuchi Baoqi's request, he quickly ordered his servants to make arrangements. The two of them sat in the middle hall and waited, chatting by the way.

"I wonder why, Xiaobao, you went to Luoyang this time? I heard you were going to build a ship?" Cheng Chumo was a little curious at this time.

Yuchi Baoqi took a notebook and wrote and drew, and then showed it to Cheng Chumo: "It's about shipbuilding, building a big ship. I want to build a [-]-ton ship with a draft of ten meters, and the shape is almost like this."

Cheng Chumo took the drawing book and was confused: "A pointed-bottomed boat? Isn't the boat capsized? I'm afraid it won't happen. I have never seen or heard of a pointed-bottomed boat."

Yuchi Baoqi smiled: "Mass-produced colored glaze, high-strength shochu, cement, guns, what have you seen, heard, or heard about? If you don't believe it, let's make a bet. You go find the wood, and I'll make the model Make it and see if it turns over."

After all, Cheng Chumo was Cheng Yaojin's son, and he couldn't stop his stupidity: "Okay, I'll go look for wood right now. Let's agree first, what are we betting on? I've been coveting Tianweijun's gun for a long time, and I want to Why don’t you just bet on this?”

Yuchi Baoqi was a little surprised: "Are you crazy? Private possession of firearms is a capital crime! Although it has not yet been enacted, His Majesty has greeted me. But forget it, just bet on this. You can't win the bet anyway, then you If you lose, you can call me Brother Bao from now on, okay?"

Cheng Chumo saw that the bet was so biased towards him, so he agreed immediately. He set out in a hurry to find wood that could be used to build ships.

Yuchi Baoqi finished the meal sent by Baolilou and looked at the riveting technology and material dimensions required for shipbuilding with the information. Cheng Chumo came back from looking for wood outside, and started shouting as soon as he entered the door.

"Xiaobao! Xiaobao! I found the wood, come and start the bet! Let's agree first that if you surrender, you have to give me a gun!"

Yuchi Baoqi looked at the set of tools on the ground and the wood brought back by his servants and smiled: "Surrender is unlikely, just take a look."

With sawdust and shavings flying, a decent-looking pointed-bottom boat was carved out by Yuchi Baoqi and held in his hand.

"Forget there are some details, let's take it and try it." Yuchi Baoqi handed the model ship to Cheng Chumo.

Cheng Chumo carefully took the model ship with both hands. Would such a beautiful but weird ship really not capsize? With an anxious mood, Cheng Chumo placed the model ship in his hand in the pond in the yard.

I saw the model boat swaying for a few times before floating steadily on the water. A few fish that were smaller than the boat went up to peck at them thinking they were feeding. Unexpectedly, the model boat still showed no sign of capsizing. .
