Li Su has always regretted that he has never gotten along with his mother, what kind of life is it to have a mother at home, he doesn't know in this life, and he also regrets that Xu Mingzhu has never gotten along with his mother, in Li Su's lazy and knowing how to enjoy life, a family with parents, wives and children can be regarded as truly happy and peaceful. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Assuming that it has no effect, the loss of relatives is lost, looking at the father now living alone alone, Li Suchang feels that his heart is not a taste, and he wants to have a good talk with his father, and persuade him to continue a room string, at least there is a wife who knows cold and hot to relieve loneliness in life, but the last time he saw his father's deep affection on his mother's grave, Li Su knew that it was useless to say anything, Li Daozheng had already strengthened his determination to use the rest of his life to miss his deceased wife, and his heart could no longer tolerate any woman, perhaps, Loneliness is happiness for him, use the eternal lonely time to recall the sweetness of every day and every hour of the year, and completely immerse yourself in this happy memory for the rest of your life, until the end of your life.

The love of that generation seems so plain, but what is it that makes them so unforgettable and unforgettable?

Li Su, a person who has lived for two lifetimes, doesn't know the reason, young people's love is like an erupting volcano, vigorous and passionate, and the next moment the two hug and throw themselves into the fire and burn to ashes. But the love of the previous generation was so bland that only oil, salt, sauce and vinegar remained, but they lived into each other's flesh and blood.

Li Daozheng is like this now, he has very few words, he carries farm tools to work every day, and when he goes home, he squats outside the threshold, looking at the sunset and sunset on the horizon in a daze, until night falls, he gets up and pats the dust, eats dinner and returns to the house alone, sleeps or continues to be in a daze.

Li Su was very worried about his father's current situation, he didn't think he was in a daze before, thinking that his father was just enjoying this peaceful and comfortable life like himself, but after his life experience was unraveled, Li Su suddenly understood why he was always so muddy every day, and his mother's grave had grown in his heart.

Worried, but didn't know how to solve it, Li Su was anxious in his heart but helpless, so he had to take out his time in a daze every day, try to accompany his father, and make him happy with a hippie smile in front of him.

…………

The day after negotiating with Lu Dongzan, guests came to the house.

The guest is barely an acquaintance, and the prince of Zhenla, Shi Neyan.

The matter of Princess Wencheng and pro-Tubo has made great progress after the negotiation between Li Su and Lu Dongzan, at least Tubo has relented, not so tough, and is even willing to swallow his anger and put himself on the same running line with the other five countries, and everyone will compete fairly for the princess, which is great news for the prince of Zhenla.

Of course, the arrival of Prince Zhenla is also good news for Li Su, who likes to meet guests, especially those who are generous and generous.

Three steps and two steps, Li Suxing hurriedly ran outside the gate to greet His Royal Highness the prince in person, Steward Xue opened the door, and Li Su was stunned after stepping out.

The door was empty, Shi Neyan was wearing a round-necked robe dressed as a Tang scholar, with a smile on his face, and he stood outside the door with a respectful and slightly restrained expression, seeing that Li Su actually greeted him in person, Shi Neyan couldn't help but show a flattered expression, and hurriedly stepped forward to salute.

Li Su's smiling face was a little stiff.

When the bold and generous guests suddenly become less bold and generous, it will inevitably disappoint the host, and the enthusiasm for receiving guests will drop sharply.

Yes, today Shi Neyan came alone, not to mention gifts, and he didn't even bring an entourage.

Li Su was stunned for a long time, so much so that even Shi Neyan saluted him in an absent-minded perfunctory manner, and his eyes kept staring at Shi Neyan's back.

"His Royal Highness the Prince is here alone?" Li Su looked at him disappointedly.

Shi Neyan smiled: "Yes, there are many people, and I am afraid of causing trouble to Li Xianhou if there are too many people......

Li Su muttered to himself in disappointment: "You came alone empty-handed...... It's the real trouble for me. ”

"What did Li Xianhou say?"

"It's nothing ......" Standing on tiptoe and looking behind Shi Neyan for a long time, Li Su sighed in despair: "...... There are really no gifts, no suspense, no surprises. ”

It's too unsophisticated, a monkey is a monkey, and a prince's signboard is just a slightly noble one.

Li Su's enthusiasm decreased sharply, and he became lazy and unenergetic again.

"His Royal Highness the Prince of Slack, Your Highness, please come in." Li Suqiang smiled and invited someone to enter the door.

Shi Neyan hurriedly gave in, and the guests and hosts entered the door one after the other, and each took his seat in the front hall.

Politely arching his hand, Li Su even omitted the most basic greeting nonsense procedures, and went straight to the point and asked: "Your Highness came to the Humble House today, I don't know if it is for ......"

Shi Neyan straightened up, walked quickly to the middle of the front hall, and solemnly and formally slammed towards Li Suchang to the ground.

"Shi Mou came to thank Li County Hou Yi for his great kindness of extending a helping hand, this grace is the same as reconstruction, Shi Mou is deeply inscribed," looked at Li Su with a grateful face, Shi Neyan sighed: "I have heard about everything, Li County Hou and Tubo Lu Dongzan are at odds with each other, you come and go, and finally force Lu Dongzan to compromise and change his words, if Shi and Ping'er can become a good relationship, it is all thanks to Li County Hou's gift." Shi didn't know how to repay him, and he wanted to thank him with an ordinary copper smell, but I knew that Li Xianhou was a noble and noble celebrity, and if he really used worldly money as a thank-you gift, he would tarnish the high righteousness of his benefactor, so he had to give up this idea......"

Li Su's cheeks twitched violently a few times.

Angry! I'm even angrier than when I saw this monkey coming empty-handed just now, why am I "noble"? Why can't I be defiled with worldly riches? I desperately want to be defiled, you know......

Taking a deep breath, Li Su tried to turn the tide, squeezed out a smile, and said slowly: "Actually, I am a worldly person, since we are in the world, we should use worldly methods to solve the mundane matter of giving favor and repaying gratitude, Your Highness, this ...... Hehe. ”

Shi Nayan looked at him blankly, obviously not understanding the deep meaning of Li Su's words at all.

Li Su was so angry that he secretly gritted his teeth, thinking about whether to learn the Qianqi language before communicating with him......

If you don't understand, you don't understand, China has admired subtle beauty since ancient times, and it is enough to say it halfway, if you say it too bluntly, it will be too ugly to eat, and Li Su is still a little embarrassed.

So the guest and the host had to change the topic.

Shi Neyan obviously didn't come completely for gratitude today, he had a more important purpose, he glanced at Li Su with gratitude and awe, Shi Neyan said cautiously: "That...... Li County Marquis, Shi heard that the Tubo Prime Minister Lu Dongzan handed over the letter of state to His Majesty the Heavenly Khan, and was willing to compete fairly with the five countries to determine the ownership of the princess, this matter ...... Li County Hou should know, right? ”

Li Su nodded: "Yes, I proposed this method." ”

Shi Neyan thanked him: "Being able to do this step and forcing Tubo to compromise and make concessions shows how much strength Li Xianhou has exerted in it, and Shi is grateful." ”

Li Su shook his head: "Don't be in a hurry to thank me, I can only do this, whether Princess Wencheng can form a good relationship with you or not, the next thing depends on whether you have the ability to do this." ”

Looking at Shi Neyan and smiling, Li Su continued: "His Royal Highness the Prince, his own woman, his own marriage, you have to rely on your own hands to get it is the king, the help of outsiders is limited after all, if you help from the beginning to the end, even if you tie the knot, do you think Her Royal Highness the princess can afford you?" ”

Shi Neyan hurriedly said: "What Li Xianhou said is very true, Ping'er is my woman, in order to spend this life with her, I will go all out to fight for it!" ”

After a pause, Shi Nayan said cautiously: "Today, Shi Mou visited Li Xianhou, first, to thank him, and secondly, to ask Li Xianhou, Lu Dongzan said that it was a fair competition between the six countries, this so-called 'competition'...... What is it? ”

Li Su smiled: "It's very simple, make a flower ball for Her Royal Highness the princess to hold, your envoys from the six countries surround her, Her Royal Highness the princess throws the flower ball into the sky, the six of you jump up and grab it, whoever jumps the highest and grabs the flower ball, Her Royal Highness the princess will belong to whoever ......"

Shi Neyan was shocked: "Huh? ”

Li Su grinned at him and smiled brightly, he always had to be a little frightened when he came to the door empty-handed, otherwise what should he do if he got used to being empty-handed in the future?

"That's right, throw the flower ball, uh-huh." Li Su Zhengse is definitely authentic.

Shi Neyan's face suddenly became ugly: "The princess of a country...... In this way, it is not ...... to decide for life Too child's play? ”

Li Suqi said: "Where is the play? Don't underestimate the action of throwing flower balls, not only to test the sensitive reaction of the contender, but also to test the physical strength and jumping height of the contender, which can not only compare whether the brain is good or not, but also compare the physical state, whether it can give Her Royal Highness the princess a solid support, you see, what a perfect test method. ”

Shi Neyan's face became more and more ugly: "Li County Marquis...... You, don't make a fuss! ”

Li Su said solemnly: "Who made trouble?" What I'm saying is true. ”

Shi Neyan suddenly straightened his waist and said, "In the afternoon, a heavy gift will be delivered to your mansion, including a box of gems, a box of Western Regions glass, and a box of ivory rhino horn carvings......

Li Su was stunned for a moment, and then overjoyed: "I thought you didn't know how to count, but I didn't expect to be so sensible......"

Shi Neyan said bitterly: "...... I thought I could save a little, since the last time I visited Li Xianhou, Shi's family has lost more than half of his wealth......"

Li Su smiled.

At the beginning, I told Dongyang that I would extort this prince of Zhenla into bankruptcy, which was indeed a joke at the beginning, but later the matter was leaked, Li Su was taken out of prison, and was cursed by the Tubo people for many days for no reason, and he tried his best to think of ideas, and it was a martial arts and a negotiation, and the entire Tang Dynasty court was mobilized to lay out a big situation, suffered so much, and did so many things, all because of the prince in front of him, if it was a joke to extort His Royal Highness the prince into bankruptcy, Now Li Suke is really thinking of bankruptcy.

Li Su is not a saint, nor is he a living Lei Feng, and he is not too familiar with this prince of Zhenla, everyone is not related to each other, it's okay I went to prison for you, I was wronged, and I spent a lot of brainpower, if you still expect me to take a penny, just a few dry words of thanks,...... Are you stupid for me?

Li Su is not stupid, Shi Neyan is obviously not stupid, he has been pretending to be stupid.

Seeing that Shi Neyan was finally on the road, Li Su was very pleased, looked at him with appreciative eyes, and said with a smile: "As the so-called 'daughter is scattered and comes back', you are a prince, your future wife is a princess, and her status is so noble, how can she be short of money?" Don't forget that your future father-in-law, His Royal Highness King Jiangxia, is very rich, how can he be worthy of himself if he doesn't knock him a dowry? ”

Shi Neyan looked up to the sky and sighed, and a feeling of Xiao Ran who had been ransacked by Qiang Liang on the road filled his chest.

With the heavy gift, Li Su's attitude was obviously much more enthusiastic, and it was only at this time that he clapped his hands, ordered the maid to serve tea, and ordered to serve good tea, this year, he fried the tea with his own hands, His Royal Highness the Prince must come to taste a cup......

The attitude of the former and the latter made Shi Neyan speechless, and he looked at him for a long time, and sighed with a wry smile.

"Okay, let's get down to business, I just said throwing flower balls...... In fact, it scares you. ”

Shi Neyan said angrily: "I know, otherwise how can I give a ...... again?"

For the sake of the gift, Li Su decided to forgive him for his not very enthusiastic attitude.

"But the competition of the six countries is real, Wenbi and Wubi are available, and the envoys of the other four countries are not joking, they are also sincerely courting on behalf of their monarchs, the significance of Princess Shang Datang to their country, you should understand."

Shi Neyan said sullenly: "Understood." ”

"This competition is the best way to solve the current disputes between the Tang Dynasty and the countries once and for all, because of you, His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty has already betrayed his treachery to Tubo once, so His Majesty the Emperor of this competition will definitely not show favoritism again, let alone go back on his word, if your Zhenla Kingdom fails to win Tubo this time, then, you will really lose Princess Wencheng forever, and it is impossible to turn the tables in this life, unless you Zhenla has the ability to send troops to destroy the Tubo Kingdom."

Shi Neyan shook his head with a wry smile, there may be many reasons for a country to start a war, but it can never be because of a woman.

Li Su looked at him seriously and said, "That's all I can say, do you still have any questions?" ”

Shi Neyan suddenly raised his head, stared at him and said, "Yes." ”

"You say."

Shi Neyan's expression was suddenly full of anticipation, and he looked at him with burning eyes and said, "...... Can you tell us about the questions of the competition? ”

"I can't." Li Su replied stiffly.

I can see that this guy has been sent to Chang'an to study since he was a child, and he is still a scumbag after reading books for more than ten years, he is late and absent from class on weekdays, and he carries a cheat sheet during the exam, glances left and right, and waits for others to knock on the table to make multiple-choice questions, which is very ...... Cordial?

Hearing Li Su's hard answer, Shi Neyan suddenly wilted again, lowered his shoulders in frustration, and sighed sadly.

Li Su smiled, is this inexplicable feeling of being the director of teaching a swelling thing?

"Your Royal Highness the Prince, the recent turmoil in Chang'an City has arisen because of the peace with Tubo, do you know this?" Li Su said slowly.

Shi Neyan nodded.

Li Su said with a smile: "To tell the truth, Zhenla is a small country, separated from the Tang Dynasty by 108,000 miles, in previous years, you sent envoys to congratulate you, and Your Majesty sent envoys to return the salute, the relationship between everyone is actually not particularly good, but this time Your Majesty is willing to be accused of treachery by Tubo for the sake of your personal relationship with Princess Wencheng, and Shengsheng will withdraw the will of the relatives, the Tang Dynasty and the people and the gates are in an uproar, Your Majesty is really righteous for you, do you know the reason?" ”

Shi Neyan raised his head and said with a puzzled expression: "This is exactly what I want to ask Li Xianhou, these days are like a dream, His Majesty Tian Khan withdrew and pro-holy decree for no reason, Li Xianhou said that the six countries fought for the princess, and the Tubo mission suddenly softened...... It's so unbelievable that I don't understand what happened here. ”

Li Su said with a smile: "Anything that happens in the world, there has never been a 'no reason', everything must have a cause and a result, the so-called 'cause and effect' is not only a Buddhist statement, but also the world, His Royal Highness the prince still remembers when I asked you for your country's rice and ears of rice?" ”

Shi Neyan nodded dumbly, then was startled, and suddenly realized: "Is it because of my country's ...... Rice? ”

Li Su said with a smile: "Yes, to put it mildly, compared to the Tang Dynasty, Zhenla is a small country, and Tubo is a strong country on par with the Tang Dynasty, Your Majesty offended Tubo for your small country, it can be seen that there is a reason after all, you yourself have also seen Your Majesty's handling of the matter of harmony, from the decree to the marriage to the withdrawal of the will, to the fair competition of the six countries, the competition for the princess, and yesterday's military performance in the eastern suburbs, putting pressure on the Tubo people, forcing them to stand in the same position as the five countries to compete fairly, etc., the whole thing is slowly reversing, Gradually leaning in the direction of your Zhenla, it can be said that things have come to this point, Your Majesty is already openly favoring you, if it weren't for the fact that His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty asked for your Zhenla, how could he pay such a big price? ”

Shi Neyan suddenly said: "So, His Majesty the Heavenly Khan is for our Zhenla's rice seeds?" ”

"That's right, it is undeniable that the yield and grains of real rice are indeed much stronger than the rice of the Tang Dynasty, Your Majesty wants to introduce this rice into the Central Plains and Jiangnan, and implement it in the world, so you need to provide rice seeds every year, and send a number of experienced old farmers from your country to Chang'an, not only that, but all the crops in your country, whether it is rice, wheat, melons, fruits and green vegetables, as long as the Tang Dynasty does not have it, we want it, the more the merrier."

Shi Neyan was still in a state of shock, staring at Li Su's face in a daze, and did not come back to his senses for a long time.

Li Su stretched out his hand and shook it in front of his eyes: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, the soul is back!" ”

Shi Neyan shuddered, and his pupils finally regained focus.

Li Su glanced at him lazily and said, "Your Highness, what I said just now shouldn't be too difficult for you Zhenla, right?" ”

Shi Neyan blinked, and his gentle and simple expression suddenly became a little cunning.

"Rice seeds...... But the foundation of the people's livelihood in my real country must not be taken lightly with outsiders. ”
