Chapter 708: The Prince's Invitation (I)
It is very common to entertain the prince, the Li family has entertained Li Shimin many times, and Li Shimin has never seen Li Su, in fact, this goods will not be seen outside anyone's house, "I am the world", "under the whole world, it is not the king's land" This sentence is not casually said, he really regards the home of any subject in the whole world as his own home, and he is extremely unhygienic at home, everyone is not too familiar with each other to jump into the bath, and no matter how much others dislike him.

Li Daozong's habits are obviously good, at least much better than Li Shimin. From the moment he entered the gate of the Li family, Li Daozong has always behaved very elegantly, from his conversation to his demeanor, which is very different from his identity.
Li Daozong is the prince, and he is also one of the famous generals of the Tang Dynasty, this era is very evil, especially in the early years of the Tang Dynasty, there are many famous generals like dogs, and I don't know what everyone ate when they were young to make them so fierce, and Li Daozong can still be among the famous generals as a prince, and his status in the army is only below Li Jing, and Li Ji, Cheng Yanjin and others are equally famous, this is a real ability, and it has nothing to do with the level of origin, which shows that this prince is really very powerful in fighting.
For more than 20 years, he participated in major battles such as breaking Liu Wuzhou, breaking Wang Shichong, destroying Dong * Turks and Tuyuhun, and all of them were victories.
Li Su originally had nothing to do with Li Daozong, and he had only seen it at some elders' banquets in the past, and when it came to the relationship with him, it could only be described as "not salty or light", the contacts between people had to look at the eyes after all, Li Daozong, a person from the royal family, Li Su first had a faint sense of rejection psychologically, after all, Li Shimin's whole family was not a good child, and if he could pay one less, he would pay one less.
The front hall sat down, the guests and hosts took their places, Li Su ordered a banquet, and there was wine and food served out in a short time. Li Daozong looked at the dishes on the table, his expression was very interested, and he kept looking at them, obviously the dishes were quite satisfactory.
"Chang'an Jieyun Li County Hou is a particular person, food, clothing, housing and transportation are exquisite and elegant, it seems that the rumors are true, just look at this dish, you know that it must be a delicious delicacy in the world, and the old man is blessed today."
Li Su said with a smile: "It's just a cold house, and the prince smiled." ”
Li Daozong glanced at him and said, "Cheng Lao Pifu, Mao Gong is the uncle and uncle in front of him, and the old man has the word 'prince' here, huh?" ”
Li Su had no choice but to change his words: "Uncle Li." ”
Li Daozong nodded with satisfaction, drank a full cup, bared his teeth for a while and then exhaled a long breath, and said with a smile: "Your wine is a treasure, there are already wine shops in Chang'an City that sell it, but who is your kid not good to partner with, not with Cheng Lao Pifu together, the old man originally loved this wine very much, but their Cheng family shop sells a wine toe high-spirited, the old man can't stand idleness, and then he drinks less, baby, or you kick the Cheng family away, this wine is simply with the old man's partner?" The old man doesn't treat you badly, you are six and I are four, and the business is fair, and the old man Cheng will discuss with you just push it on the old man, how about it? ”
Li Su's face turned a little dark.
He suddenly found that the old goods in front of him were obviously not a good thing, he dug the corner of the Cheng family as soon as he entered the house, and dug it brightly, without any scruples, which shows how bad Cheng Biting Jin's popularity is, those elders in Chang'an City Li Su have never seen a person who said good things about him, either digging the corner of the wall or scolding, just what Li Su saw and heard with his own eyes and ears, in the past few years, those elders don't know how many times they have had a super friendship relationship with the female ancestors of the Cheng family, it is really unfortunate for the family, and the ancestral grave is uneasy.
"Ah, this...... Uncle Li, what is the boy, Uncle Cheng, you know better than the kid, I'm afraid it's not as simple as money to kick the Cheng family, the kid will die......" Li Su showed a pitiful expression begging to be spared.
Li Daozong glanced at him quite sympathetically, it seemed that he had a deeper understanding of Cheng Yanjin's character, shook his head, and muttered a few words in a low voice, obviously not a good word, the female ancestors of the Cheng family were humiliated again.
"You're just a coward, I can't count on you." Li Daozong glared at him dissatisfied, took another sip of the cup.
Li Su smiled: "Uncle likes to drink this wine, it is the honor of the kid, every month in the future, the boy will send someone to send ten altars to you, and please Uncle smiled, brushed your good intentions, this is also the kid to make amends for your sins." ”
Li Daozong laughed and pointed at him: "Sure enough, he is an eight-sided and exquisite character, he speaks and does things smoothly and sophisticatedly, where is he smarter than Cheng Biting Jin's old goods, the old man should really be a student for you for a few days, let him reflect on why he has been living in the belly of a dog for so many years." ”
Li Su didn't dare to say anything, but his heart was very refreshed, to be honest, Li Daozong's evaluation of Cheng Biting Jin was very objective, thinking about his blood and tears experience of being robbed by Cheng Biting Jin countless times, Li Su felt sad.
After greeting each other for a long time, Li Su's thinking gradually became much clearer.
The prince, who rarely interacts with him on weekdays, suddenly came to the door and talked to him about a bunch of boundless gossip, obviously, this product is not a full pastime to eat, there must be something serious, contact the ten mysterious big boxes a few days ago, the two things are connected in a series, Li Su understands that those heavy gifts are nine times out of ten sent by the king of Jiangxia.
A prince gave a heavy gift to a county marquis, you can imagine how much trouble Li Su has, and it is certain that although he will not rebel, at least he will invite him to heaven.
Li Su's heart was suddenly extremely bitter, but he still patiently chatted with Li Daozong.
Li Daozong really didn't see outside, he was very happy to eat and drink, he drank half a catty of liquor and didn't see drunkenness, and the dishes on the table were frequently stuffed into his mouth, obviously very palatable, eating and drinking, but his demeanor was very elegant, and he could even make time to talk and laugh with Li Su, not showing his water, and most of the dishes on the table were wiped out by him, and by the way, he finished talking about the gossip that should be said.
Li Su was dumbfounded, this skill ...... Definitely a ruthless character.
After holding a full cup of drink, Li Daozong exhaled, his body sat up straight unconsciously, and Li Su also straightened his waist, he knew that if he played according to the routine, it was time to get down to business.
"Zizheng, the old man is presumptuous to come today, he really has something to ask for......" Li Daozong said slowly.
Li Su suddenly said: "Uncle, wait a minute, the kid will ask something first...... A few days ago, someone gave a very heavy gift, I wonder if Uncle Li did it? ”
Li Daozong smiled faintly: "If you are talking about ten big boxes, yes, it was sent by the old man." ”
Li Su hurriedly showed a panic: "Uncle is so heavy, the kid can't afford it, he deserves it, these days the kid asked people to ask around Chang'an City, just to inquire about the person who gave the gift, and then return this heavy gift as it is, Uncle Li came just in time today, please ...... it."
Before he finished speaking, Li Daozong suddenly smiled: "How can the things sent by the old man be taken back?" Are you in such a hurry to withdraw the courtesy, do you want to plug the old man's mouth with words? Don't play tricks in front of the old man with this little bit of caution. ”
Li Su laughed twice and said: "Uncle is serious, the kid really just wants to return the heavy gift, there is no other meaning, if the uncle is in trouble, the boy will do his best to help, and he will never dare to accept this heavy gift." ”
"Haha, what a 'do your best', your kid is really slippery like a loach, leaving a back hand everywhere, such a talent, but worthy of His Majesty's praise, it is indeed a 'young hero'."
Li Su's face darkened again.
It's a great torture to chat with this kind of person who can't chat, isn't it good for everyone to talk to each other in a subtle way and save face for each other? If you have to pierce the window paper, you have to tear down the window.
"Don't care about the ten boxes, you listen to the old man first, if you can't do what the old man asks, the ten boxes will be given to you, even if it is a meeting gift from the elders to the younger generations."
Li Su smiled bitterly: "Uncle Li said it, the kid listened." ”
Li Daozong groaned, seemed to organize the words in his mind, and after a long time, he lowered his voice and said slowly: "The eldest daughter of the old man is named Li Ping, and she was canonized by His Majesty as Princess Wencheng a few months ago......"
A flash of surprise flashed in Li Su's eyes, and his mind was racing quickly.
Li Daozong sighed: "Children's affairs, never let the father worry, the people's family is the same, and the royal family is the same." In the eighth year of Zhenguan, Tubo Songtsen Gampo came to my Tang Dynasty to ask to marry the princess, at that time His Majesty refused, and then Songtsan Gampo soldiers sent Tuguhun, and occupied my Songzhou, and then the Tang Dynasty recovered Songzhou, and the Tang Dynasty and Tubo reconciled, Zhenguan sixteen years, Songtsan Gampo asked to marry the princess again, this time His Majesty had to agree......"
Li Su responded with a smile, feeling slightly impatient in his heart, this foreshadowing was too long.
Who knew that Li Daozong's face suddenly changed when he said this, his calm expression changed suddenly, he became angry and twisted, his hands were clenched into fists, and he slammed it on the table.
“…… Harmony and proximity, since the Han Dynasty, but I don't know which bastard in front of His Majesty into slander, saying that if Your Majesty is reluctant to marry a princess, you might as well choose a daughter among the royal family, register as a princess, on behalf of the heavenly family and the barbarians, this yin idea really hurt the old man, and I don't know who is so lacking in virtue, the old man cursed him to give birth to a son without ......"
"Cough cough cough ......" Li Su suddenly coughed violently, coughing so red that his face was red and his ears were red, tearing his heart and lungs.
Li Daozong's words were interrupted, and he turned his head and glared at him dissatisfied: "Twenty-year-old baby, it is the time when you are strong and healthy, you are like this, it's time to practice." ”
Li Su nodded hurriedly: "Yes, yes, Uncle has taught me a lesson, the kid has written it down, you go on,...... Skip this paragraph and continue. ”
There will be retribution for doing bad things, even if there is no retribution, it is inevitable to be scolded a few words, from setting fire to Lu Dongzan, to choosing the princess and relatives of the princess of the clan, Li Su found that he has a lot of evil retribution recently, and he must be kind in the future, and have less ideas for lack of morality.
Li Daozong snorted and said: "Thanks to the lack of virtue bastard, Your Majesty will be the eldest daughter of the old man, Li Ping, as Princess Wencheng, and will soon be sent to Tubo to marry the head of the Tubo barbarians...... Ping'er committed suicide by hanging herself a few days ago, but fortunately, the next person found it in time, which saved her life, and then under the pressure of the old man, Ping'er cried and confided everything, it turned out that she had a lifelong engagement with other men......"
Saying that, Li Daozong's face became angry again, his eyes were red, and he roared in a low voice: "That 'other man' is actually the prince of a barbarian country!" Is my daughter only worthy of the life of a barbarian? It just doesn't make sense! ”
Li Su smiled with a humble smile: "Children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren......"
"Blessed fart! There is a barbarian on the left, a barbarian on the right, whoever marries is a barbarian, do you think this seems like a blessed appearance? (To be continued.) )
