Seeing that Li Zhanji was so happy, of course Li Xie would not be blind to say in front of him that this method is not what you think, it is what I think. After talking about the reward, Li Zhanji didn't stop, and then talked about the patriarch of the ant clan to admire the culture of our dynasty.

Then he said the emperor's generosity, and directly asked him to choose the books he wanted in the library of Hanlin Academy. Looking at Li Zhanji, who was still proud, Li Xie couldn't help but interrupt:

"I guess most of the books he picks have nothing to do with culture, but rather books on forging and technology."

"Did you kid already know about this?" Li Zhanji was a little surprised this time, his son can, he is so smart that he can guess anything.

"I don't know about these things, I just know that you are really stupid." Sure enough, it is the pride of the ambassador, and the pride makes people blind. It is said that there are no stupid people in the Manchu Dynasty, but even such a group of shrewd people have not been able to see the true purpose of the patriarch of the ant clan, or they can see it but they don't care.

They don't care at all that these advanced techniques are learned by the ant clan, because they are confident that even if the ant clan has the same technology as themselves and the national strength of their own side, they can firmly suppress them. And what prompted them to have this idea was just a few words of sycophants from the patriarch of the ant clan.

"So, you kid thinks you're smarter than the Manchu Dynasty?"

"I didn't say that, and I won't think so, I'm just saying that you were all dazzled by a few sycophants from the patriarch of the ant clan." Li Xie looked at Li Zhanji's rhetorical question, and also heard his dislike of what he said, but he didn't care whether Li Zhanji liked what he said or not.

"Uncle Li, do you know what will happen when these books that have been favored by the patriarch of the ant clan are brought back to their own clan?" Li Xie asked such a question, but he didn't want Li Zhanji to answer like this.

"They'll learn these more advanced techniques, their knives will be sharper, their shields will be stronger. On the other hand, their economy will develop rapidly, their lives will improve, and then there will be a sharp increase in population. ”

"So what? I ......" Li Zhanji didn't care at all and waved his hand, but before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Li Xie again.

"So what? That means they can quickly increase their population in the shortest possible time. That means that we could defeat 200 of them with a hundred soldiers, but now we can only win 150 or even 100. Our oppression of them will no longer exist, and perhaps they will bow down to us now, but what about ten years from now, twenty years from now? When they develop, they will have no ambitions? ”

Li Zhanji's arrogant sentence, so what? Let Li Xie complain wildly. This is simply a typical Wang Shaojun out of the plug, and people still bring it out when they are close. It's good for you to let the empty gloves of the white wolf give away to others for nothing.

"This ......" Li Zhanji finally realized the seriousness of the matter this time, but letting the family choose books freely was originally said by himself, he is the Son of Heaven, and there is no reason to change it when he says it. Besides, even the books have already arrived in the hands of others, and they will go back tomorrow, and there seems to be no room for turning back in this matter.

"Okay, I'm full, I'm leaving." After Li Zhanji said this, he didn't want to regret it at all, but he was embarrassed to stay here any longer. Maybe this is the unique death of ancient emperors to live and suffer crimes, even if they know that the loss in the future will be great, even if they know that this is to raise a tiger for themselves in the future, they are not willing to lose their face now.

Li Xie didn't have the ability to read minds, so he didn't know what Li Zhanji was thinking now. I thought that he was leaving in a hurry now to save the batch of books that would be taken away. So he nodded indifferently, although he is now an official of the imperial court, his status is so small, and these things are not things he should worry about.

When chatting with Li Zhanji, since he was open, it was okay to chat and say a few words, but if he was asked to take care of this matter by himself, he would not bother to take care of it. As the saying goes, if you are not in his position, you can't seek his own government, since it is not the emperor's life, then don't be the emperor's new

Li Zhanji left in a hurry, but Li Xie's expression became solemn. Touching it, the fire fold that had been in his arms since yesterday, he hoped that this time he was thinking too much and being too cautious.

For the patriarch of the ant clan that he guessed, this grandmaster master will come to deal with him. Li Xie didn't say anything to anyone, so since he found out the news that Li Baichuan had dealings with the patriarch of the ant clan, many people couldn't understand the arrangement made by Li Xie.

Why dig a big hole in your own yard to make a trap? Why do you want to set up so many mechanisms in a remote room, and these mechanisms are all going to other people's lives.

No one knows why?

It's just that out of trust in Li Xie's ability, everyone didn't say anything.

The night came quietly, Li Xie uncharacteristically did not go to Lu Xiaomei's side, and even when it was completely dark, Li Xie solemnly called the cicada clothes to him and ordered:

"Wait a minute, an old friend will come to visit, all of them are martial arts practitioners who may make a little noise, so don't come out in the room."

Of course, Li Xie didn't do this because he took this maid who only followed him for a few days seriously, so heavy that he could protect her with his own life.

Li Xie did this just because he felt that this little girl who didn't know martial arts at all, if she came out and intervened, she would definitely be of a disservice.

"Yes!" Although Cicada Yi was puzzled, she didn't say anything, she was a maid after all, and she still knew that she knew a lot of things that should be asked and shouldn't be asked.

Because he has a trick that can deal with the assassination that he may encounter this time, Li Xie is not too worried. Just in the courtyard, quietly playing his tai chi, quietly waiting for time to pass.

The first watch, the second watch, the third watch, when it came to the end of the third watch, Li Xie thought that this time he thought too much and was too cautious. Suddenly there was the sound of footsteps from the eaves in the distance.

Judging from the sound of footsteps, this person's light skills are not very good, running all the way, stepping on the tiles, and even the sound of the tiles cracking can be clearly heard.

Li Xie heard this voice, and Wei Er, who had been secretly protecting him, of course also heard this voice. And since Wei Er was on the roof, he didn't care if he heard the sound, he also saw people.

It was precisely because he saw people that Wei Er was even more surprised. He didn't understand why this man was here. The people who came didn't have any special clothes, they wore dark clothes of an alien race, and they didn't even wear masks to hide their faces. Just rushed from the rooftops in such a blaze.

Looking at this person, Wei Er recognized it at a glance, it was one of the famous grandmasters in the world of the patriarch of the ant clan, Qutu Demon Man.

Wei Er was frightened, and because he had to quietly observe the development of things, he didn't show up. When Li Xie saw the visitor, instead of being surprised, he asked very flatly:

"Majin Patriarch? You're not coming in the right direction. Li Xie was unusually calm, of course he knew why this demon patriarch came in a different direction than the direction he lived. But he still asked casually.

"You should be Li Xie! What a young talent! It's rare to have such behavior as you can do at such a young age. Qu Tu Demon looked at Li Xie as if he was waiting for him, and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, but he didn't show it.

After all, he is a grandmaster-level figure who has been famous for many years, and there is still a kung fu to nourish his qi.

"I can get a compliment from your old man, and the younger generation is fortunate to have three lives."
