Giving birth to children is a happy event, but in this patriarchal era, in terms of universal values, daughters cannot inherit the family business and title after all, which is worse than that of sons.

However, Li Su's reaction was really beyond Fang Lao Wu's expectations, from Li Su to the present, the joy he showed was really heartfelt, as if what he was looking forward to was to have a daughter, and now he is getting what he wants.

Fang Lao Wu couldn't figure it out, and the steward who came from thousands of miles of Pegasus couldn't figure it out, but they didn't dare to speculate about the grandfather's thoughts, and they were knighted as county dukes at a young age, and what they did and thought was naturally different from ordinary people.

When Li Su's joy slowly eased, the steward took out several letters from his arms and said, "Grandpa, this is the letter from the master's mother, Princess Dongyang, and His Royal Highness the King of Jin, please take a look at it." ”

Li Su took the letter, opened it and asked lightly, "Is everything okay at home?" ”

"Everything is fine, the old man is in good health, all day long is not to work in the field or to drink and chat with a few brothers left behind, and then the master and his wife came to the house, and the master is to accompany the master every day, and he is happy all day long."

Li Su asked again, "What about Princess Dongyang?" Is she okay? ”

"The princess is good, since the grandfather went out with the holy car, the princess often came to accompany the housewife, and even when the housemother was about to give birth, the princess personally went to invite the imperial doctor in the palace, and the princess is also the best princess invited from Jingyang County."

Li Su sighed secretly and said, "Is something happening in the court?" King Jin stayed in Chang'an to supervise the country, but did he have twists and turns? ”

The steward said with a smile: "Grandpa forgive the sin, the villain really doesn't know about the affairs of the court, but in the past half a year, Chang'an City has been calm, and the villain has not heard of any major incidents in the court." ”

Li Su nodded, no news is the best news, Li Zhi has the demon of the Wu clan by his side, and the Shandong Shi clan to escort him, even if the eldest grandson Wuji wants to make some moves to make it difficult for him, there is still a Fang Xuanling in Shangshu Province who is holding him back.

While talking, Li Su has opened the letters, first of all, Xu Mingzhu's, followed by Dongyang's, the two most important women in his life, the letters they wrote are actually similar in content, using that kind of very subtle and graceful rhetoric to express their feelings of missing him, the difference is that in addition to missing, Xu Mingzhu's letters are more guilty, and between the lines are the guilt of not being able to give birth to a son for her husband.

As for Li Zhi's letters, they were full of complaints from beginning to end, complaining about how boring Chang'an City was, living in the same hall with the eldest grandson Wuji Fang Xuanling all day long, and how boring it was to deal with state affairs...... In the end, Li Zhi also congratulated Li Su on becoming his father in the letter, and told Li Su as if inviting merit to tell him that Xu Mingzhu had given birth to a daughter, and the Jin Wangfu gave the Li family a lot of generous gifts that night, which was not polite at all, and clearly wrote the word "generous gifts".

The content is very relaxed, revealing a strong juvenile heart, Li Suyin smiled and shook his head.

After all, Tang Gaozong, who was no less scheming than his father in history, is still a little short of it, but Li Zhi is still young, and if a man wants to mature, it will even take a lifetime, and it is still early.

Properly put away the letter, Li Su thought for a while, and said to the steward: "I won't write a reply, I think you also know that my Tang Dynasty has withdrawn troops from Goguryeo today, and my uncle and I stayed behind to break the army, so I don't have to tell my wife and Dongyang about the things here, so as not to worry about them, just say that I will return to Chang'an after completing the task of blocking the enemy, and the time is not far away, so that they can take care of their lives." ”

The steward bowed.

After a pause, the housekeeper said carefully: "Before the villain left, the housewife said that ......, the eldest lady still has no name, and the housewife asked the grandfather if he wanted to give the eldest lady a boudoir name?" ”

Li Su smiled, beckoned to Fang Lao Wu to prepare pen and ink, the silk paper was spread out on the desk, Li Su dipped the pen in ink, the tip of the pen hovered above the silk paper, and after a moment of silence, he slowly put down the pen.

Fang Lao Wu and the steward came over curiously, but saw that Li Su had only written one word on the paper, "Zhen"

Seeing the curious and dazed looks of the two, Li Su smiled and said, "Look so seriously, do you know how to read?" ”

Fang Lao Wu said with a smile: "Humble people, how can they be blessed to read and write, the villain still can't even write his own name......

Li Su pointed to the word on the paper and said: "Remember, this word comes from the Book of Songs, Zhou Nan", saying: 'The peach is dying, and its leaves are verdant.' The son of the return, suitable for his family', this 'Zhen' word, is to describe the dense grass and trees, meaning that life is tenacious and vigorous, if you marry Ruyi Langjun in the future, you will also be able to fit his family, and the white head of the ......"

Looking at the word he had written, Li Su smiled happily and said slowly: "Go back and tell Madam that my daughter's name is 'Li Zhen'." ”

The steward also responded with a smile on his face, and then silently memorized Li Su's allusion to the source just now, and explained it to the mistress when he returned.

instructed Fang Lao Wu to arrange for the steward to go down to rest, and Li Su walked out of the camp alone.

Many people outside the tent have woken up, the movement just now is not small, the Li family's subordinates have already known the news, seeing Li Su walking out of the tent, all the subordinates have congratulated Li Su.

Li Su subconsciously planned to scatter his wealth, but when he touched his body, he found that he was penniless, so he had to smile and say: "Your congratulations are early, the march is outside, I don't have a penny on me, and if I want to ask for money, I can only wait until I return to Chang'an." ”

In the crowd, Zheng Xiaolou's coffin actually had a smile on his face, which was rare to see. Seeing Li Su's excited and joyful appearance, Zheng Xiaolou untied the skin from his waist and threw it to Li Su.

Li Su took it, pulled out the stopper, and found that it was actually a strong drink, and couldn't help but be stunned.

Zheng Xiaolou said lightly: "There is only this small half bag of wine, enough for you to drink alone, it is a happy event to have a daughter, go back to the camp tent and celebrate alone." ”

Li Su's throat squirmed, but he still shook his head, put away the skin, and said: "It's going to be pulled out early tomorrow morning, it's easy to make mistakes when drinking, so let's wait until we capture Gyeongju City and drink again." ”

All the tribes dispersed, but Li Su couldn't sleep anymore, standing alone on the empty grass outside the tent, looking up at the dark night sky.

The mood seems to have changed instantly, from hearing the news of his daughter's birth, Li Su suddenly has a feeling of taking root, from Zhenguan ten years to today, Li Su really found that he has really fully integrated into this era that did not belong to him, he has relatives here, friends, married a wife, has flesh and blood, and his concern for this world gradually transcends the thoughts of his previous life, Zhuang Zhou dreams of butterflies, it turns out that in the world of his previous life, he is just a passerby, and this is his destination.

It was as if a traveler who was confused and did not know where to go, found a house on the side of the road, and there was a lamp in the house, and when he approached the house, he realized that the lamp was reserved for him, in order to wait for him. There are wives and children under the lamp, there are relatives, well, the journey is over, this is home, it is home, and he will not go forward anymore, because he can no longer leave and can't let go.

The cold wind disrupted Li Su's thoughts, and in the face of the biting cold wind, Li Su smiled slightly on his back.

Since then, I have more worries, and I must go back alive.

After the excitement, Li Su suddenly felt a little tired, and finally felt sleepy, so he went back to sleep in the tent.

This night Li Su slept not steadily, had several dreams, the dream was full of relatives and wives and children, and even dreamed of his daughter who had never met, the daughter was carved in pink and jade, and looked as cute as a porcelain doll, Li Su cherished it so much, he held her in his arms and refused to let go, and his daughter also smiled at him, so cute that he didn't want it, Li Ji on the side saw it, and cried with joy while holding his beard, and shouted wildly to ......the sky: "The old man's girl's heart is ahhhhhh

In the end, Li Su was woken up by the sissy's uncle.

***********************************************************

The next day, before dawn, the camp heard noisy people and neighing, Li Su heard the sound of the whole army gathering outside, and hurriedly put on his armor and walked out of the camp.

In the handsome tent, Li Ji was giving orders, and when he saw Li Su coming in, Li Ji smiled.

"I forgot to congratulate Zizheng, congratulations to Zizheng for adding a tiger girl, and the old man is also happy to add a niece and granddaughter, very good! After she was three years old, she was sent to my house, and her husband personally taught her to lay a foundation for martial arts......"

The generals in the tent also congratulated Li Su, and Li Su smiled and saluted one by one.

After the gossip was finished, Li Su looked at Li Ji and said, "Is my uncle ready to send troops to Gyeongju?" ”

Li Ji nodded and said, "Yes, according to what you and I discussed yesterday, it's time to pull out at this time." ”

Li Su blinked and said, "I don't know how my uncle plans to attack the city?" ”

"Taking advantage of the wide open gates of the city, the defenders were unprepared, and ordered the soldiers to suddenly kill in."

Li Su shook his head: "Uncle, I'm afraid it will be difficult to capture Gyeongju with this method, no matter how few the defenders of Gyeongju are, there are thousands, no matter how fast we launch a surprise attack, the defenders can still react, and when the city gate is closed and the drawbridge is hung, it will be much more difficult to capture this city at that time." ”

Li Ji stared at him and said: "It seems that Zizheng has a better way, the fighter plane is fleeting, what is the best way to do it quickly." ”

Li Su said slowly: "We have captured Daxing City yesterday, and ...... The city was also slaughtered, we might as well search for the clothes of the common people of Goguryeo in the city, select hundreds of people to put them on, and then mix into the city of Gyeongju in batches, suddenly launch, seize the city gate, and finally our army will enter the city with lightning speed, and this city can be destroyed. ”

Li Ji and the generals looked at each other, and then nodded one after another.

This method is undoubtedly much more clever than fighting hard, and the number of casualties will be reduced to the minimum, so Li Ji has no reason not to adopt it.

"Okay, according to Zizheng's plan, let's sneak in and seize the city gate first!" Li Ji decisively waved his hand and ordered.

After the military orders were issued, all the generals had already left the commander's tent, Li Ji suddenly sighed, and said: "Zizheng's method, if it was used in Anshi City......

Li Suyin smiled and said: "Uncle thinks too much, Yang Wanchun of Anshi City is not a fool, besides, before the soldiers came to Anshi City, our army was huge, waving his army on an expedition, how could he escape Yang Wanchun's scout surveillance with every move?" With Yang Wanchun's talent, he has long strictly controlled the entry and exit of the city, and even directly closed the city, this method cannot be effective, but Gyeongju City is different, one is that their generals must be inferior to Yang Wanchun, and the other is that they have too few troops, and their control over the city and the city gate is naturally not as good as Anshi City, and third, we are all cavalry, coming and going like the wind, and when we launch an attack, we are as fast as thunder, even if Gyeongju City sends scouts to the outside world, it may not be able to grasp our movements, which is more conducive to our surprise attack, So it's very possible to use my method to take Gyeongju City. ”

Li Ji nodded and praised with a smile: "I am glad to see that my Li family's Qilin'er can take charge alone, and the old man is very relieved." ”
