Li Zhi, don't be a coward

Chapter 1148



Chapter 1148
You can't take the blame, Xu Jingzong is not the one to take the blame.

The old guy only takes advantage of it all his life and doesn't suffer from it. For such an important matter as military supplies, food and grass, he can't recite a single bit of it. If this word is spread today and accidentally creates public opinion, it will be a big trouble for Xu Jingzong.

Cheng Yaojin was very contemptuous of Xu Jingzong. At the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, the government and the public were martial arts, and the generals still had a lot of weight in the court. They were somewhat resistant to civil servants, especially Xu Jingzong, who had a bad reputation and relied on luck to get into a high position. Civil servant, he didn't even bother to hide his contemptuous eyes.

"What are you panicking about? The old man just said that there is such a possibility, and you can't be involved," Cheng Yaojin snorted, and said, "Grand Ying has fought for many years and made great achievements in battle. He will definitely not miss the opportunity for no reason. There must be some accident... "

Li Qinzai couldn't help feeling tense.

The old man recovered from his serious injuries, so nothing will happen again, right?
"Grandpas, when the boys left Goguryeo, Wang Shi's army had already gone south. The two generals Xue Rengui and Gao Kan each led an army, and they were encircling Pyongyang. There shouldn't be any accidents, right?" Li Qinzai said anxiously.

Cheng Yaojin twitched the corner of his mouth and said, "That's not good. When the two countries are at war, any accident may determine the outcome, such as a heavy rain and flood, a small ambush, or even the resistance practiced by a non-government group, etc. , will affect the entire battle situation.”

"Boy, going out to battle is not as simple as you think. Any small accident that exceeds expectations may lead to a failure. Therefore, since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, there have been countless foreign wars, but very few can truly be called 'famous generals'. "

Cheng Yaojin stroked his beard and said: "Your grandfather is a little bit awkward. He has led the army for many years and has almost no defeats. Presumably this time is no exception. The old man thinks that there may be an accident in Goguryeo, but this accident should be quickly resolved. Your grandfather has it under control."

"The victory remains the same, with your grandfather leading the army, Goguryeo will be destroyed." Cheng Yaojin said firmly.

Li Qinzai breathed a sigh of relief, Cheng Yaojin is also a famous general for many years, his research and judgment on the Goguryeo battlefield is still worthy of trust.He said no problem, it should be no problem.

Xu Jingzong also said with a relaxed smile: "The government and the public are already preparing to celebrate the victory. Yinggong will live up to his mission. We will wait for the good news ahead in Changjing."

"The emperor also has great trust in Yinggong. Since last month, the Ministry of Officials has begun to select officials. Once the news of Goguryeo's destruction comes, these officials will immediately set off to take over Goguryeo. When the people are in chaos, the officials appease the hearts of the people."

Xu Jingzong sighed leisurely: "Decades of national feuds have finally come to an end in the hands of the emperor, and I can comfort the ancestors of Gaozu and Taizong!"

As he said that, Xu Jingzong suddenly knelt down facing the direction of Taiji Palace, and said with tears in his eyes: "Nowadays, today's day is hard work, the shame of two dynasties, Gaozu and Taizong's ancestors are in the spirit of heaven, you can rest in peace! The late emperor——!"

As soon as these words came out, the surrounding people turned cold, Cheng Yaojin, Su Dingfang and others took a step back in disgust.

We had a good chat before, but suddenly we made such an incident, no wonder Xu Jingzong is so annoying.

Li Qinzai's cheeks also twitched a few times, and secretly decided to blacklist Xu Jingzong, and refuse this kind of psychopath to enter the house in the future, unless he gave a generous gift.

If you hate him, you hate him. He has already stood at the height of morality and political correctness, and the rest of the people have to follow him and kneel in the direction of the Taiji Palace, shouting "Old Emperor"...

At this moment, Li Qinzai was very grateful that he was a disabled person in a wheelchair, hey, it was so cool, no need to kneel.

After a set of Xu's performance, Cheng Yaojin and others were so disgusted that they bid farewell to Li Qinzai and left in a huff.

As if someone had rushed in person at the dinner, everyone left one after another, only Li Qinzai and Xu Jingzong were left in the front hall laughing and laughing.

Li Qinzai actually wanted to say goodbye, but this is his home, so he couldn't run away...

After everyone left, the tears of excitement on Xu Jingzong's face disappeared in an instant, which was amazing.

Putting on a smiling face, Xu Jingzong leaned closer and whispered: "My nephew is away on an expedition. The old man has asked my dog ​​to settle the settlement with my nephew's wife twice for the business this year. The next settlement will probably be at the end of next summer."

The old guy changed his face so quickly, Li Qinzai felt uncomfortable for a moment, and said dumbly: "Ah, thank you Uncle Xu."

"Haha, it's very safe to do business with my nephew, especially since the emperor also took a stake in it, how dare I not be careless? After the previous two settlements, the Tian family's internal affairs office is very surplus. It is said that the emperor Long Yan is very happy and started to discuss with the queen. Do you want to repair the Daming Palace..."

Li Qinzai also laughed: "If you have money, you will have money, and the emperor is not immune."

Xu Jingzong's expression changed. Li Qinzai dared to say this, but he didn't dare to say it, and he didn't even dare to agree.

"My nephew has shared the secret recipe of making ice cubes with the Xu family. Now it is mainly sold to Dashi and Persia. I plan to send some more caravans next year to try to sell it to Tianzhu. Maybe there will be surprises. Please discuss this matter with my nephew and the emperor."

Xu Jingzong's smile was somewhat flattering, and Li Qinzai soon understood.

He intends to cling to Li Zhi's thigh. The most effective thing is not to flatter him every day, but to actually do something for Li Zhi, such as the emperor's personal purse.

"I can assure you that at the end of next summer, when the profits are distributed, the ice cube business will be [-]% more profitable than in previous years, and will not delay the emperor's renovation of the Daming Palace." Xu Jingzong said solemnly.

Li Qinzai smiled and said: "Just do your best, it's just a business, the emperor will probably not be too serious, Uncle Xu don't need to be too embarrassed, how much profit is given is a loyalty to the emperor."

Xu Jingzong nodded and said: "That's right, it is indeed a piece of loyalty to the emperor."

Li Qinzai was a little strange, this old guy ran away with disgusting others, and left him alone, could it be that he just wanted to talk about it?
The two sat opposite each other for a long time, Xu Jingzong didn't seem to have the slightest intention of saying goodbye, so Li Qinzai could only force a smile on his face and spend time with him.

After a long time, Xu Jingzong suddenly said: "In the future, in the court, Duke Li has a mission, and I am willing to advance and retreat with Duke Li."

Li Qinzai was taken aback, and looked at Xu Jingzong in puzzlement.

Li Qinzai, who was confused by a word without thinking, was a little confused.

"Uh, thank you Uncle Xu for your kindness. The boy is just an idler. He usually doesn't participate in government affairs. After he recovers from his injury, he plans to go back to Ganjingzhuang to farm and fish, and to teach his disciples."

Xu Jingzong was silent for a while, and said: "If there is a change in the court, it may be difficult to maintain the happy life of Duke Li."

Li Qinzai was surprised: "What happened in the court?"

Xu Jingzong stroked his beard and shook his head, smiled, but said nothing.

"In short, please remember these words of the old man, Jungong Li. In the future, the old man is willing to advance and retreat with Jungong Li."

After speaking, Xu Jingzong got up to leave, and without waiting for Li Qinzai to ask more questions, Xu Jingzong turned and left.

Li Qinzai fed him several times behind him, but Xu Jingzong still ignored him, and it was useless to ask Chu Yuxun.

Li Qinzai was so angry that he gritted his teeth secretly: "Is this old man sick? He said such nonsense without thinking, but you should explain it clearly from beginning to end!"
