Chapter XXVI: Game of Thrones

But said that Li Zhi, who waited for Xue Li to go home on a business trip in the evening of the same day, was different from wearing regular clothes as usual, and today he came back with a helmet and armor, needless to say, there must be a temporary military affairs in his body, Liu hurriedly handed over his son Xue Ne in his arms to Li Zhi, and personally helped Xue Li disassemble the armor, clean and arrange meals.

Xue Li opened his hands and let Liu's movements, glanced at Li Zhi, and was a little unhappy: "I heard that you and Xu Jingzong have been walking quite close in recent days?" ”

"Yes, there is some exchange of interests." Li Zhi replied honestly, it was also under the operation of someone with a heart, Lao Xu almost became a joke of the whole Chang'an at this time, no one knows, no one knows, even his own daughter is sold for money, this matter is not new, but it happened to a third-grade member of the imperial court, and immediately became the talk of the people of Chang'an who love to chew the root of their tongue after tea and dinner.

"Nonsense, do you know what the consequences of being close to him will be when the Emperor Zhongshu Ling Changsun has a gap with him, do you know what the consequences of being close to him will bring you?" Xue Li didn't care so much about money in the first place, but when he heard that Li Zhi dared to joke about his own future for the sake of money, he didn't get angry, and he raised his hand and was ready to smoke, even with the armor leaves on his body that had not been completely removed.

Li Zhi was holding his little junior brother Xue Ne in his arms, and he dared to make a big move to dodge, so he had to avoid his body and prepare to be beaten on his back.

"What you are yelling about, you can think of things, do you think Brother Zhi can't think of it? What an old man, frizzy! The Liu family opened his mouth to help, Li Zhi hurriedly hugged Xue Ne and bypassed the master to stay on the side of the master, jokes, Tie Hanhan understands the way to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, can he Li Gongzi not understand?

"Humph! It's not like you're used to it, follow a piece of money to drill into the eyes! Dine! Xue Li was also concerned about chaos, and he changed his words as soon as he was woken up by his wife, but the majesty of the master still needs it.

At the dinner table, Li Zhi didn't say much about Xu Jingzong's affairs, because if nothing else, there would be results in the next two days, and then the worries of Master Xue Li would be self-defeating, and what he cared about was the problem of the Dugu family.

"Dugu? Duguxian? Xue Li heard Li Zhi ask about his friend or colleague surnamed Dugu, and immediately said Duguxian's name, and was a little strange how Li Zhi could inquire about his best friend.

"Dugu Meijun, I met with her today...... Li Zhi talked about the interaction with Dugu Xiaoxiao from Deshengtang in Dongshi to Yanxing Gate today, and also expressed his guess:

"Master, if the disciple is not mistaken, this Dugu Xian is likely to be the top family in Chang'an City, the son in law of the Dugu family's generation, and as far as the current situation is concerned, the Dugu family still attaches great importance to you, Master, and it is estimated that they want to win you over, otherwise, Dugu Meijun will not give you this "chasing deer" for no reason today! ”

Li Zhi casually pointed to the bow box placed in the corner, only the ebony bow box is worth a lot of money, not to mention the five-stone big bow inside, although it is not so unattainable for him now, but it is still too expensive as a gift between friends.

As a military general, and the one who is the best at bowing, how can Xue Li resist the attraction of the five-stone big bow, this kind of thing is generally priceless and unavailable.

With a faint expectation, Xue Li got up, picked up the heavy bow box, opened it in a precious and heavy place, and saw the first sight of the big bow "chasing the deer", and gave birth to the idea of taking it for himself, but then he cut it off violently.

Syllable!

He covered the bow box and looked at Li Zhi with an unprecedentedly serious look: "This thing is too precious for a teacher, you will personally go to someone early tomorrow morning to send it back, and say that I Xue Li is useless, even if I am rewarded, I will only be rewarded by His Majesty!" ”

Li Zhi sighed in his heart, got up and bowed to promise, and said in his heart This is the most stable and fastest shortcut to the end of your career in Xue Li's current view, how many people don't hesitate to bend down and be a dog in exchange for an opportunity, so it was thrown away!

Is it a pity? Pity!

However, Li Zhi breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, relieved, because after this period of contact, he had completely recognized this master in accordance with his heart, in his mind, people like Xue Li could be found in the empire of the Tang Dynasty, one of the few people who could be used as a benchmark of faith and could allow him to introspect! There is no room for defilement!

Otherwise, even if it is a wealthy family like the Dugu family, he Li Zhi doesn't mind giving them a good reason, his Li Zhi's reasoning.

"Master, I like you to accept it with confidence, this is the apprenticeship I prepared for you, as for the Dugu family, I will personally send the money over early tomorrow morning, we are not short of those money!"

Xue Li still wanted to excuse himself, but who knew that people's eyes were no longer on him, so he snorted, picked up the dishes and chopsticks, and made a clanging sound!

"Master, you are relieved, in addition to the income from the business in the early stage, I have already opened a shop in the name of our two families in the West Market, and the business is not bad, so we won't have no food for a broken bow!"

Liu was just about to speak, but was rounded back by Li Zhi with words, what else could he say, the two of them glanced at each other, and at the same time had a helpless thought, Xue Li couldn't stand the bird's anger that was ignored by the apprentice, and the big slap of the pu fan was a twitch.

Syllable!

"Let you be scared, and break the bow! Get up early tomorrow and take the school exam in the martial arts field, if you don't meet the requirements of the old man, see how the old man picks you up! ”

The anger was smooth, Xue Lizhi picked his teeth proudly and shook away, of course, he didn't forget to hold his beloved five-stone bow in his armpits......

Li Zhi, who was slapped on the head, almost hit the table with a pestle. This is the typical excesses of an irritated old man, and Li Zhi once wondered if his faith was about to collapse!

I have to hurry back to my own Zhuangzi, Zhuang Wuchen and my father would not beat him like this a long time ago, okay!

Besides, the old Xue said to get up early, but not at seven or eight o'clock in the morning, the ancients paid attention to the three watches, the lights and the five watches, but not just talking, especially Xue Li, a peerless general, winter practice three nine summer practice three dogs, five watches to get up and smell the chicken and dance is the most basic practice attitude, has insisted on decades without falling, Li Zhi headache, five o'clock in the morning!

"Xiao Zhi, your master's temperament is a little sloppy, but he treats everyone with sincerity, you tell your master, what kind of wealthy family is the Dugu family? That Dugu Xian can be incognito and intersect with your master for so many years, there is really no other intention? ”

Li Zhi picked up a tofu ball and fed it to Xue Ne's mouth, swallowed it when he saw him muttering, and opened his mouth wide, screaming non-stop, so he smiled and put another one in his mouth, and then whispered some anecdotes about the Dugu family to his mother, so that he was relieved.

When the emperor is strong, he chooses to lie dormant and retreat to protect his body, and when the imperial power is weak, he chooses to expand his body and make allies, but the pattern is still smaller!

Of course, Li Zhi will not finish everything, because people's ambitions will change with the change of the environment, especially in the game of power, never want to be a person who is truly indisputable!
