Chapter 13: Seeking the Skin of the Tiger

Cheng Huailiang was able to leave Pei Xuanji and Qu Gaode, but in fact, he didn't even have a fight, he just drew a big pie for the two of them, which was enough for the two of them to leave everything now and do this big pie.

Pei Xuanji does have great ambitions, and he is not willing to deign to the Literature Museum all the time.

To be reasonable, Pei Xuanji was the emperor when Li Zhi, but the person who was the prime minister did have his uniqueness, and the most important thing was political consciousness.

"Cheng Feng, prepare for the court clothes, the master is going to face the saint."

Of course, the court clothes are the same as the first time in the court, you must wear the court clothes of the captain of the horse, otherwise how can you poke Lao Li's sore spot?

There is nothing else, the sky is big, and Lao Li is the biggest.

If you can't provoke the emperor, you can always disgust the emperor, right?

When the emperor not only has to be advised by the imperial historian, but also has to fill in the blockage for you from time to time as a son-in-law, disgusting and disgusting you, otherwise there is no sense of existence as a son-in-law.

This is definitely not dancing on the tip of a knife, this is a contest between the son-in-law and the father-in-law, and the son-in-law must stand up straight.

Zichen Palace, Lao Li, who had finished dealing with political affairs, suddenly felt a little bored.

When I'm bored, I feel annoyed watching everything, and I can't watch anything after I'm upset.

In particular, Lao Li was lucky enough to die and picked up a copy of the Agricultural Classics.

Lao Li felt that his heart was inexplicable, and his heart was blocked again.

At the end of the Sui Dynasty, there were constant disputes and wars, and the grain production of the Tang Dynasty decreased year by year, and now all the food is the old capital accumulated by the previous dynasty (Sui Dynasty).

When he was struggling, the chamberlain came in and reported: "Your Majesty, Cheng Huailiang, the captain of the horses, asks to see Your Majesty." ”

"What is he doing?" Lao Li himself was blocked in his heart, and he couldn't get out of a bad breath, and when he heard Cheng Huailiang's name, he felt even more blocked, "Let him go." ”

"Your Majesty, the captain of the horse said to come and offer a treasure to Your Majesty." Seeing that Lao Li was furious, the inner attendant was so frightened that his body trembled one after another.

"Offering treasures?" A playful smile appeared at the corner of Lao Li's mouth, "Let that crumb roll in." ”

The waiter left, Cheng Huailiang approached the Zichen Palace, and before he had time to bow down, he felt a figure rush over, and after rushing over, he grabbed Cheng Huailiang's neck and collar involuntarily, and fell over the shoulder, and then the big foot girl unceremoniously carried Cheng Huailiang's buttocks.

After kicking more than a dozen feet, the figure sat panting on the steps under the dragon case, glaring at Cheng Huailiang viciously.

"Your Majesty, why did you beat up your loyal ministers?" Cheng Huailiang looked aggrieved, but he still shook his court clothes and reminded Lao Li, I am your son-in-law and future son-in-law, and it depends on the owner to beat the dog, not to mention that our father-in-law is your son of the Tang Dynasty?

"Whew!" Lao Li was angry, raised his big feet and shook Cheng Huailiang, Cheng Huailiang was very familiar and hid far away.

"In the future, if you dare to wear this court dress, Lao Tzu will kill you." Lao Li didn't care about his identity as the emperor at all, and spoke ill of Cheng Huailiang.

"Your Majesty, speak with your conscience. When Her Royal Highness the Princess was ten years old, you promised Her Royal Highness the Princess to the ministers, and when the emperor's speech was a spittle, you can't be unreasonable. What Cheng Huailiang said was that he had no confidence, and the whole person hid directly behind the pillar, only leaking his head. I was afraid that Lao Li would be careless and kick over with big feet.

"Unreasonable?" Lao Li stood up suddenly, "Lao Tzu and you still need to reason?" ”

"Your Majesty, convince people with virtue. Although the minister's father is shameless, he also taught the minister to convince people with virtue. ”

"Miscellaneous, you dare to say more...... Lao Li turned around and picked up an inkstone, "If you dare to say more, Lao Tzu will kill you." ”

Cheng Huailiang immediately shut up.

Lao Li sat on the steps again, glaring at Cheng Huailiang angrily, and Cheng Huailiang hid behind the pillar and didn't come out.

"Didn't you say offering treasures? What about the treasures? Lao Li snorted coldly and glanced at Cheng Huailiang.

Cheng Huailiang didn't speak.

"Lao Tzu asked you, where are the treasures?"

Cheng Huailiang still didn't speak.

Whoosh, the inkstone flew directly over, plus Lao Li's roar, "I'm asking you, where are the treasures?" ”

Cheng Huailiang stretched out his hand to catch the inkstone and spoke very carefully, "Your Majesty, you are the one who told the minister to shut up." ”

"I ......" Lao Li directly took off the boots on his feet and smashed them at Cheng Huailiang, "I let you say it now." ”

Cheng Huailiang picked up the dragon boots, walked out cautiously, handed the boots to Lao Li, and the inkstone was also placed on the dragon case intact.

"Your Majesty, there are no treasures now."

"What? Miscellaneous, do you dare to bully the king? Lao Li was so angry that the corners of his mouth twitched one after another, and he was about to beat Cheng Huailiang.

Cheng Huailiang shook his court clothes, "Your Majesty, if you miss and kill me...... Her Royal Highness became a widow before she passed the door......"

Wow yes...... Lao Li was so angry that he roared again and again, eager to tear Cheng Huailiang to pieces directly, but finally endured it, "Say it to me well, if you don't say it, I want your head." ”

"Your Majesty, the grain output of Datang is not high, not in cultivation, but in seeds." Cheng Huailiang paused, "Yesterday, the minister had a dream, a white-bearded old man, and the minister said that there is a place rich in seeds with high yield per mu. ”

"Where?" Lao Li's anger eased a little, but he still stared at Cheng Huailiang angrily.

"The Silk Road, that is, the Western Regions." Cheng Huailiang saluted Li Shimin, "The minister has already drawn a map, and he has also found the most suitable candidate to go to the Western Regions." But the minister is still short of necessary things, and he hopes that His Majesty will approve it. ”

"What do you want?"

"The ministers shall have thirty straight swords, sixty fine horses, thirty bows, thirty crossbows, and a number of arrows." After speaking, Cheng Huailiang looked at Lao Li with a smile, "Of course, it would be better if I was giving the minister thirty horse lances." ”

Lao Li looked at Cheng Huailiang with half-squinted eyes, gritted his teeth and squeezed out a few words, "This is the white wolf with empty gloves who came to me?" ”

"Your Majesty, there is a reward for what you give. What's more, the minister exchanged with you, and he didn't ask for your weapons and equipment in vain. The seeds are not in hand, so the minister will take the treasure and exchange equipment with you. ”

"Swap? How to exchange? Lao Li sat up straight, "What you want is taboo in Datang, if someone knows that you are hoarding weapons, they will sue you for attempting to rebel." Of course, you must be confident when you come to me, in exchange......"

Lao Li looked down on Cheng Huailiang a little, "You can have the things you want, but in exchange, I really can't think of what you can do in exchange for these equipment." You must know that it takes three years for a horse lance to be used from molding. Not to mention a strong crossbow......"

"Hey, hey." Cheng Huailiang pointed to the steps beside Lao Li, "Your Majesty, can the minister sit down and say?" ”

"Shame on the face." Although Lao Li was reluctant, he still patted the ground and motioned for Cheng Huailiang to sit down.

Of course, it is impossible on the steps, how can the emperor be on an equal footing with you? This is the principle of being an emperor.

"Lend you the four treasures of the study." After speaking, Cheng Huailiang didn't care whether Lao Li agreed or not, picked up a piece of straw paper and a pen, sat directly opposite Li Shimin, and drew a drawing, a very simple drawing, which can be said to be an iron piece.

Lao Li's anger came up again, and he raised his foot and was about to kick Cheng Huailiang, Cheng Huailiang was shocked, "Your Majesty, slow down, it's not too late to beat the minister after he finishes speaking." ”
