Chapter 86: Li Daozong's Mysterious Gift
The person who came was none other than Li Daozong, the 'King of Jiangxia' that Zong Xiu had just met in the [Lin De Palace] yesterday.
This time, Li Daozong was sitting by the river fishing, and there was a pot of wine next to him, and he drank two sips from time to time.
"Girl, you go back first."
Zong Xiu was puzzled, and let Yi pour love into the courtyard.
Li Daozong also said to the guards: "Commander Niu, go and bring the gift to Master Zong." ”
"Yes, sir."
Niu Hanshan made a promise and walked quickly towards the carriage.
Zong Xiu squatted next to Li Daozong with his arms in his arms, and asked with a smile: "Why does the prince of Jiangxia have time to come to my door to fish?" It's okay to be interested. ”
Li Daozong took a 'puff' and scolded with a smile: "What a flamboy, he made this king pounce, and dared to ridicule this king in turn." ”
"Don't dare, don't dare, how dare I ridicule the prince. Hey, although I live by the river, I have never fished so leisurely, and I envy you. ”
Zong Xiu snorted.
Li Daozong directly handed the fishing rod to Zong Xiu's hand: "Here you go, let you be leisurely today." ”
The fishing rod is made of fine green bamboo, which is very delicate and just right to hold in your hand.
Zong Xiu lifted the fishing line and looked at the hook, and skillfully threw it into the water.
Li Daozong boasted: "Yes, looking at the posture, he is also a veteran, and he has time to fish together." ”
Zong Xiu smiled, and asked rhetorically: "Lord Wang, don't tell me that you came to thank me for yesterday's incident." ”
"Didn't you guess it all?" Li Daozong was not surprised.
Zong Xiu glanced at Niu Hanshan, who was busy working beside the carriage, and sighed: "Hey, it's a letter and a gift, it's hard to guess." ”
In the Linde Hall yesterday, the Tubo envoy Lu Dongzan and the Tuyuhun envoy Wang Nuo Shan Bo all came to ask for marriage.
And Lao Li was reluctant to marry his daughter, so he intended to let the eldest grandson Wujian come forward and accept Li Daozong's daughter Li Wanqiu as a righteous daughter, give the title Princess Wencheng, and marry Tubo.
Whose child is not the meat of his heart, of course Li Daozong is not reluctant. But he couldn't help it, after all, the queen mother spoke.
Just when Li Daozong was doing a good job of father and daughter being separated from each other, he didn't expect Zong Xiu's words to directly change Li Shimin's mind.
The daughter does not have to marry far away, of course Li Daozong is happy. He is a grateful person, so early in the morning, he asked his personal guard Niu Hanshan to send a letter, saying that he was coming to visit Zong Xiu.
I didn't want to forget to leave my name, so Zong Xiu directly released his pigeons for an afternoon.
In fact, Li Daozong is not to blame for this, he is used to writing letters without leaving a name, after all, he is the king of Jiangxia, and everyone who is worthy of his personal letter can recognize his words, and even more recognize his personal guard Niu Hanshan.
However, Zong Xiu didn't recognize either, so it was a misunderstanding.
Li Daozong and Zong Xiu chatted for a few words, and saw Niu Hanshan walking over quickly with a big cloth bag.
The cloth bag was bulging and moving, as if it were filled with a living thing.
Zong Xiu was puzzled: "Isn't this gift alive?" ”
Li Daozong laughed and said: "As a master of the sect, I must not be able to look down on any gold and silver vulgar things, and it is inconvenient for me to give away those official ranks, so I will give you a rare thing, and you should be careful." ”
"Hehe, I don't dare to ask for those things if you dare to give them."
The corners of Zong Xiu's mouth outlined a knowing smile.
Li Daozong is the king of Jiangxia, and a prince is recruited into Beijing, and he is not allowed to bring the army, what does this mean?
This shows that the emperor is suspicious of him.
If Li Daozong and Zong Xiu get too close, give gold, silver and jewelry, or woo Zong Xiu with some official position in their own fiefdom, the two of them will definitely be recorded in a small book by Li Shimin together.
Niu Hanshan walked over with a cloth bag, put it in front of Zong Xiu, untied the rope at the mouth of the bag, and said respectfully: "My lord, this is ......"
"Holy, panda!"
Before Niu Hanshan finished speaking, Zong Xiu had already exclaimed.
The gift given by Li Daozong turned out to be a panda, or a live panda.
"Isn't this a crime?"
Zong Xiu screamed, but his hand was not ambiguous at all, and he hugged the panda cub with fluffy hair and looking around.
Li Daozongqi said: "Panda? Well, this thing looks like a bear when it is an adult, but it is called an iron-eating beast in Shuzhong. ”
Saying that, Li Daozong said again: "It's good that Master Zong likes it, this thing was also given to me by someone else, and it tastes good." There's not one left, so I want to give you a look at it, and try it by the way. ”
“……”
Zong Xiu rolled his eyes, obediently, dare to eat pandas? In my time, ten shots were not enough. Even if you slap it, the saliva of the people of the whole country can spray you to death.
Zong Xiu hugged the panda with its teeth and claws, and from time to time put his fingers into the panda's mouth to tease him.
The little guy is fluffy, only a few pounds in weight, his teeth have not yet grown, biting Zong Xiu's fingers, he looks fierce.
Zong Xiu couldn't help but be happy: "Haha, yes, weird and cute, I'll play with it in the future." ”
"Master Zong, don't be kidding, this iron-eating beast is only five months old, and it looks cute, but when it grows up, its temperament will become fierce and cruel. There are often iron-eating beasts in Shuzhong that break into farmers' homes to steal food, and when they are seen, one paw is flesh and blood, and they can't be raised. It's better to eat it while it's young and the meat is the most tender. ”
Li Daozong opened his mouth and closed his mouth to eat, and Zong Xiu was speechless: "Lord Wang, the IQ of pandas is actually very high, and now it is just right to teach it at the age of five months." Since you sent it to me, leave it to me what you want to do. ”
Seeing that he couldn't persuade him, Li Daozong didn't persuade anymore, and said: "Okay, the gift has been delivered, and this king should go back." Master Zong, let's come to Japan for a long time, and we will go fishing together when we have time. ”
"Haha, then I'll wait for your letter."
Zong Xiu hugged the five-month-old panda cub and smiled like a flower on her face.
He suddenly realized that crossing was also a good thing. Although there is no computer, no mobile phone, no network, at least you can pet the panda.
Obediently, the panda was a national treasure in his time, and it cost a hundred and ten yuan to look at it, let alone touch it with his own hands.
Li Daozong was also happy when he saw Zong Xiu's smile, he didn't expect that he would send it to the other party's heart by mistake.
"Master Zong, this king is leaving, by the way, by the way, I will tell you the truth, His Majesty may want to reward you recently, haha, wait for the holy decree at home."
Li Daozong laughed and got into the carriage and left, but Zong Xiu was bent on teasing the panda cub in his arms, and he didn't bother to ask about the reward, anyway, he didn't ask for a reward now, making money at home to tease and tease him, isn't it good to pet the panda?
What's more, after living for most of my life, I finally have the opportunity to raise pandas openly.
Zong Xiu walked quickly towards the courtyard, and before anyone entered the door, the voice shouted first.
"Girl, come here. I'll show you a rarity. ”
Yi Tingqing heard the call and hurriedly came out of the house, only to see Zong Xiu holding a small black and white, fluffy thing in his arms.
Maybe women like furry animals, or maybe it's the giant panda from ancient times to the future, no one can resist its cuteness.
"Ah, it's so pretty, Childe, what is this?"
Yi ran over in surprise and reached out to hug it.
Zong Xiu laughed: "Giant panda, I haven't seen it." Tsk, this is a unique species from Bashu. ”
