Regardless of identity and status, just talking about individuals, in all fairness, the Wu family is indeed much more mature than Li Zhi.

Li Zhi is a flower that grew up in the greenhouse since she was a child, and Wu's, she has lived as a big tree that can support her life, and she has already experienced the wind and rain that she should experience, so she knows better than Li Zhi what the human heart is and how terrible the human heart will be.

Therefore, Li Zhi and the Wu family can form a kind of personality complementarity, which is why Li Zhi in real history will not hesitate to offend the eldest grandson Wuji in order to establish the Wu clan as the queen, and he will not hesitate to turn against the Shandong Shi clan, and strive to abolish the queen Wang and turn the Wu clan as the queen. Of course, the reason for the establishment of the Wu clan is not only favored, but there is also a deeper reason for the game between the imperial power and the gate lord clan, but it is undeniable that Li Zhi is indeed very fond of the Wu clan.

Because there are indeed many shining points in Wu's character that Li Zhi lacks, and at the same time, in terms of government affairs, Wu's ability and courage are also what Li Zhi can't do, these character advantages have become the weight of Wu's favor to Li Zhi, and these advantages are not given by the queen at that time, plus the contradiction between the imperial power and the scholars at that time has gradually become acute, so the abolition of Wang Liwu has become an inevitable trend in history.

Wu is more realistic than Li Zhi, and has a more thorough and far-reaching view of the world and people's hearts than Li Zhi.

Of course, the words of reality are inevitably not very pleasant, Li Zhi, a small flower living in a greenhouse, is a little unhappy, the world he sees has always been beautiful, but Wu has broken the beauty in his heart.

"How can the court be as bad as you say? Since the founding of the Tang Dynasty to now, it has been 30 years, Gaozu and his father saved Li Min from the dire situation, in just 30 years, the country has undergone earth-shaking changes, the prosperity is just around the corner, the court is a saint and a sage, the reputation is far and wide, if the court is really full of intrigue and tricks, how can there be such a gratifying change in the world? Li Zhi said unhappily.

Wu smiled helplessly, and said: "Your Highness, conspiracy and intrigue and creating a prosperous era are two different things, whether it is a prosperous era or a troubled era, the court is the birthplace of conspiracy and trickery, because all the power in the world is concentrated in this place, and power affects interests, the world is profit-oriented, where interests exist, there must be disputes, there must be disputes, there must be conspiracy, His Royal Highness is the future monarch of the Tang Dynasty, if His Royal Highness can't even see through this simple truth, the slave is very worried that the future court will have a weak monarch and a strong minister......"

Li Zhi's expression was still displeased, and he frowned: "Could it be that there is no pure friendship between people in the court?" Is everyone talking only about power and profit? ”

"There are only monarchs and ministers in the court, how can there be friendship at all? Even if there is a friendship, it is only temporary, it is established because of interests, such a friendship is too fragile, and it will collapse at any time because of interests, His Royal Highness has grown up in the palace since childhood, and may have seen many seemingly touching friendships between monarchs and ministers, but those are just a group of harmony on the surface, if Your Highness doesn't believe it, why not ask Your Majesty in person, and ask him if he and the eldest grandson Wuji trust each other wholeheartedly......"

Wu Shi paused and said, "A qualified emperor will never trust anyone. ”

Li Zhi muttered: "In this way, my friendship with Li Su ......"

Wu's face changed slightly, and after thinking for a while, he smiled and said: "The friendship between His Royal Highness and Li Xiangong is naturally pure, and it is a rare friendship of friends, however, the slave maid thinks that this is only temporary, if one day His Royal Highness ascends the throne, you and Li Xiangong have changed from friends to monarchs, then, friends are no longer pure friends, you and him will have cooperation or disputes of interests, some trust, and some mutual defense, and even, there will be conflicts, there will be dislikes, everything is possible." ”

Li Zhi was stunned for a long time, suddenly shook his head vigorously, and then glanced at her, and said: "Brother Zizheng often tells me that people must have their own independent ideas, and cannot be swayed by other people's ideas, this is a complete person, Miss Wu, your thoughts are too dark, and my father's thoughts are the same, I don't think I can believe you, I don't believe that there is no pure friendship between monarchs and ministers, and each of the court is a monarch and a minister, and they may fight for a certain state affair, but they can still play and make fun of each other when they go out of the court, and drink and have fun together, Such kings and friends are the most valuable, and my brother and I should be like this, and the days to come will be long, and I will definitely prove it to you. ”

Wu Shi looked at Li Zhi in surprise, but his heart sank suddenly.

It wasn't until today that she really understood Li Su's position in Li Zhi's heart, which turned out to be so important.

Is there really no real friendship between monarchs and ministers?

Wu Shi suddenly wavered at this sentence......

When a crisis is completely solved and a big trouble is resolved, the whole person's psychology is relaxed, and he wants to sleep when he relaxes, sleeping in various postures.

People are like this, the longer they sleep, the more they feel that they can't sleep enough, they spend most of the day sleeping, they wake up groggy and groggy, they get up and eat, and immediately yawn again and again and start to get sleepy.

Li Sule is in it, he feels that this is his ideal life, worry-free food and clothing, lazy and leisurely, living like a pig.

Three days later, another guest came to the door.

When the guest came to the door, Li Su was sleeping under the ginkgo tree in the middle of the courtyard, and he was sleeping very devotedly, dreaming that he was lying in a pile of copper coins and silver cakes and laughing like a fool, and Steward Xue carefully woke him up.

"Grandpa, there is a visitor......

Li Su opened his eyes unhappily and glared at Steward Xue: "Uncle Xue, do you know what is the most important thing in our family?" ”

Steward Xue has been in the Li family for many years, and the answer to this question is very clear.

"Money is the most important thing!" Steward Xue said without hesitation.

"Wrong! My sleep is the most important thing! Li Su glared at him dissatisfied, and said, "The head of the family didn't sleep well, how could he have the energy to go outside to make money?" ”

Steward Xue suddenly said very interestingly: "So, grandpa, the villain is going to invite the guests back?" ”

Li Su sighed again: "Since I have been woken up by you, that is to say, my sleep has been ruined by you, then you tell me again, what is the most important thing in our family now?" ”

Steward Xue said without hesitation: "Grandpa's sleep is the most important, the villain refuses the guest, and Grandpa can continue to sleep." ”

Li Su's face suddenly darkened: "Wrong again!" Sleep is ruined, and this time is of course the most important thing for money! Do you know what a guest represents? ”

Steward Xue, who answered the wrong questions continuously, was a little panicked, his self-confidence was seriously hit, he hesitated for a while, and said: "The guest represents...... Money? ”

Li Su turned his anger into joy, and said with his head bowed: "Good! Finally got it right. ”

Steward Xue couldn't help but say, "What does Grandpa mean, does this guest see or not?" ”

Li Su yawned and said nonchalantly, "Who is this guest?" ”

"The Japanese monk who came to our house the day before yesterday......"

Li Su was stunned for a moment, and then said with a gloomy face: "It's this Japanese monkey again!" No, no, no! Let him fuck off! ”

"Yes, yes, the villain will refuse him." Steward Xue bowed down and slowly stepped back, then paused, and said cautiously: "Grandpa, this monk is visiting today with a gift,...... Isn't Grandpa gone? ”

The drowsy Li Su suddenly perked up, and the whole person bounced up from the recliner, dressed in the wind, his spirit was strong, and his eyes were bright, and he said: "The two countries of Tang and Wei are clothed with water, good neighborliness and friendship, and there are friends from the Japanese country, how can you make your guests wait for a long time?" Come in, I'm going to have a friendly conversation with this one......"

Steward Xue: "............"

A few days ago, I heard someone mention an idiom of "no place to be ashamed", is it to describe the mood at this moment?

…………

Dao Zhao obviously did his homework this time, and he found that this Tang magnate was very fond of money, and if he wanted to see him, money must be an indispensable stepping stone.

Sure enough, as he expected, this time Dao Zhao came to the door almost without any obstacles, the housekeeper forced him to squeeze a smile to invite him in, and when he walked into the front hall, the head of the house was already waiting for him in a well-dressed manner, and his face even showed a sense of home...... A smirk?

Daozhao took a deep breath, this feeling of being valued by his master...... So happy.

"The monk of Yamato is humane, and I will meet the prince of Li County in the Tang Dynasty." Dao Zhao saluted Li Su.

Li Su smiled all over his face, his eyes looked at the gift in Daozhao's hand for the first time, and then, his brows couldn't help frowning.

From the point of view of volume, this gift is obviously not big, the two oil-paper bags are strung together with hemp rope, and they are carried in Daozhao's hands and swaying lightly, Li Su judged with the pitiful physical knowledge of his previous life, aerodynamics plus gravity plus the density of the object and the curvature of the fluttering in his hand, and finally messily adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing, it is certain that this bag is not heavy, first of all, it excludes the possibility of gold or silver cake in it, there are not many valuable and small things in the world, excluding gold and silver cakes, and the remaining options are only beautiful jade or…… Emerald diamonds? The value of this thing hasn't been discovered yet, has it?

In the end, Li Su finally came to a conclusion that the value of the gift in this guy's hand was probably no more than one hundred wen.

So Li Su's face changed, and when Dao Zhao was still smiling and feeling the warmth of "at home", Li Su's face suddenly changed.

"Someone, send off!"

Dao Zhao was shocked and hurriedly said: "Li County is slow and slow, the poor monk brought a gift this time, brought a gift!" The poor monk is not rude! ”

Li Su sneered: "What gift did you bring?" ”

Dao Zhao hesitated for a moment, opened the oil paper bag in his hand, Li Su looked at it, and then became furious.

In the oil-paper bag, of course, it is not gold and jade, not even copper coins, but two packs of gold crisp bought in a black workshop shop in the East Market.

Is this not to take the county public as a cadre, and to send it to be called a flower child?

Li Su turned his face again: "Come on, send off guests!" ”

Dao Zhao hurriedly said again: "And! Li Xiangong, and! ”

"What's there?"

Dao Zhao gritted his teeth, and took out two Dongzhu from his arms with a distressed face, each Dongzhu was about the size of a pigeon's egg, and it was rare that the color, size and roundness of the two Dongzhu were very similar, they were simply twins.

"These two East Pearls were personally given to the poor monk by His Excellency Our Minister Su Irilu before the poor monk left Yamato Country, he said...... Let the poor monk give them to the magnates of the Tang Dynasty, the poor monk has been thinking about it recently, and feels that Li Xiangong's character and demeanor are complementing these two East Pearls......"

Li Su glanced at it and touched his chin, although this monkey said that "character and demeanor" made him a little embarrassed, but ...... Dongzhu is innocent!

Almost without hesitation, Li Su immediately reached out and took the two Dongzhu, stuffed them into his arms, and then smiled like a spring breeze.

"Oh, it turned out to be a monk of the Japanese country, a long time gone, not seen for a day, such as every three autumns, the monk really makes me miss it!" Li Su was extremely enthusiastic, and once again showed a friendly and homely smile.

Daozhao: "............"

This feeling of being robbed suddenly while walking on the road is swollen......

"Yamato, not the ...... of the Wa country" Dao Zhao weakly corrected.

"It's all the same, it's all the same...... Li Suman waved his hand indifferently: "Let's go straight to the point, you know, I'm very busy, what's the matter?" ”

Dao Zhao said in a low voice: "It's still that thing, Li County Gong, the rice seed improved by Datang Agronomy is really very important to my Yamato country, if there is it, the yield of my Yamato country's fields will increase by three percent, and the people will no longer be hungry, and our Emperor His Majesty will no longer worry about the shortage of food in the country every year, this rice seed is really a treasure to save the country, and please Li County be open and give it to our Yamato country." ”

As he spoke, Dao Zhao got up and gave Li Su a long stroke.

It is strange that monks do not practice Buddhist rituals, but they practice secular rituals.

Li Su was immediately a little unhappy, he had already made up his mind about improving rice seeds, he would never give it to the country, from the standpoint of the Tang Dynasty, this is a matter of principle, and he can't be too accustomed to these neighboring countries.

Touching his chin, Li Su began to hesitate, whether to drive this monkey out, anyway, the gift was also accepted, theoretically you can cross the river and tear down the bridge, Chang'an City is his own territory, it doesn't matter if he is driven out, it's a big deal that this monkey goes around to promote his shamelessness, it doesn't matter, because he is telling the truth......

Does a shameless person still care if others scold him for being shameless? Hehe, non-existent.

The more I thought about it, the more it made sense......

"Someone, send off!"

Yes, Li Su turned his face again.

Dao Zhao was shocked: "Li County Gong, what's wrong with you?" Where did the poor monk offend you? ”

Li Su said lazily: "Because I suddenly remembered something, hehe, I heard that you ran to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince the day before yesterday and said bad things about me?" Monk, you want to do something, we ordinary people can't do such a thing, you are a worldly monk who actually slanders others behind your back, not to mention, I saved your life when I was in Liaodong, and this is how you people repay you for saving your life? ”

Dao Zhao was anxious: "The poor monk swore to the Buddha that he had never said anything bad about Li Xiangong in front of His Royal Highness the Prince, and the poor monk just asked His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to be gracious and give me the improved rice seeds to the Yamato Kingdom, and then complained a little that the Tang Dynasty was not enthusiastic about our Tang envoys...... Li Xiangong, the poor monk didn't say a bad word about you, don't wronged the poor monk! ”

Li Su suddenly hesitated.

The reason for his hesitation was not Daozhao's explanation, but that he suddenly remembered Li Zhi's words.

It doesn't matter if you offend the monk of the Wa Kingdom, but unfortunately, this monk still has the identity of sending Tang envoys, in this way, Dao Zhao's identity has risen to a political height, and the Tang envoys have always been valued by the court and ministers in the Tang Dynasty, and their status is almost equivalent to that of an envoy of a country, so even though Li Su is not to see the Wa Kingdom, but he still doesn't dare to do this kind of thing openly expelling guests, after all, this monk is very good at doing things, Chang'an City cried everywhere, and the rumors came, and now it is the sensitive period when Li Shimin is about to die and Li Zhi is newly crowned prince, Li Su also didn't dare to guarantee that he would get into big trouble if he got into trouble.

Thinking of Li Zhi's advice, Li Su still decided to be polite to this Japanese monkey, just for the sake of the face of the two Dongzhu.

Rubbing his face, Li Su once again showed a smirk of home.

Dao Zhao's cheeks twitched, Li Su's schizophrenic attitude change in front of him was too terrifying, and Dao Zhao felt that his spirit had also been hit hard.

"Let's not mention the unpleasant things, what does the monk think?" Li Su said with a smile.

Dao Zhao was pardoned, and nodded hurriedly: "Yes, yes, those unpleasant things are all misunderstandings, don't mention it." ”

Li Su snorted and said, "What is the business that the senior monk just said?" ”

"If the improved rice seeds of Datang Agronomy can be given to my Yamato country, our people will no longer suffer from hunger from now on......"

Seeing that Li Su was still expressionless, Dao Zhao bowed to the ground, and said with a respectful expression: "I ask Li County Gong to fulfill the compassion of the poor monks, and give me the rice seeds of Yamato Country, and the good man will have a safe life......

Li Su smacked his lips, this ...... It's familiar.

Blinking, Li Su's tone suddenly became ethereal: "Even if you are a monk, you have something you want to protect, and I am really troubled by your request......

Dao Zhao's black face question mark: "??? ”

What's wrong? What happened? Why is every word spoken by this county official in Guanzhong dialect, but when connected, he can't understand it at all?

"Li Xiangong, forgive the poor monk for being stupid, what did you mean by this sentence just now? The poor monk doesn't understand. ”

Li Su glanced at him, his expression was still ethereal: "Although you can't understand my words, it seems impossible for you to be so kawaii, but...... Since you are in a foreign land, please ask Your Excellency the monk to do Ba Dad, and try to understand our words, so that you can protect what you want to protect! ”

Daozhao's face quickly turned green, and he suddenly wondered if he was also schizophrenic.

"Your Majesty Li County, I beg you...... Don't make a fuss! Dao Zhao begged and begged.

"Our rice seeds in the Tang Dynasty, presumably you, as a high-ranking monk of the Japanese Kingdom, must complete it even if you gamble on life and death, right? But, I'm sorry, even if I'm so small in Datang, like you, I have things in my heart that I want to protect and insist on......" Li Su's tone became more and more gloomy, like a fog, making people foggy.

Dao Zhao was about to go crazy, his eyes were quickly bloodshot and red, and he was on the verge of exploding on the spot.

"Li Xiangong, what are you talking about?" Dao Zhao's voice was already a little crazy.

Li Su sighed, he suddenly realized that his flattery had been thrown to the blind man, so he had to return to normal.

"In order to take care of your status as a guest, I will chat with you in the language of your country,...... I don't understand this, are you a Japanese or not? It can't be a fake, right? Li Su said dissatisfied.

Dao Zhao stared at the red eyes, and said word by word: "I, we, big, and, country, from, come, no, this, like, say, words!" ”
