Li Yi took the Taiji atlas from the study, and Cheng Zhijie, Qin Shubao, and Li Tao took the Taiji atlas, and cheekily asked Li Jing for a few jars of health medicine and wine, and left the house happily.

When the group left, the innocent and resentful color on Cheng Chumo's face was extremely inconspicuous compared to the excited faces of Cheng Zhijie and others.

In the hall of the main hall of the Li Mansion, the original tranquility was restored again.

"San Lang." Looking at Li Yi beside him, who now looks about the same height as him, Li Jing nodded and said with a smile, "You can give them the Taiji Atlas for the sake of the Tang Dynasty's Jiangshan Sheji, for the sake of your father's heart...... Very happy! ”

Before, Li Jing was just casually mentioned.

As for whether Li Yi was willing to give the Taiji Atlas to Cheng Chumo and the others, to be honest, Li Jing didn't have much confidence in his heart.

But now, seeing Li Yi so atmospheric, Li Jing felt relieved from the bottom of his heart.

After all, only when the strength of the Tang Dynasty soldiers becomes stronger, the strength of the Tang Dynasty's army can become stronger, and the national strength of the Tang Dynasty will become stronger.

Only by beating all the enemies who invaded the territory were terrified, did they dare not invade the territory of the Tang Dynasty.

In this way, the country's rivers and mountains will become as stable as Mount Tai.

This is the long-cherished wish that Li Jing has pursued all his life!

"Father praised it." Seeing Li Jing say this, Li Yi immediately grinned back, and then said seriously, "Father, the child is also a Tang man, and the child naturally sincerely hopes that the child can live up to his father's ideals." ”

"The child also hopes that the land of the Tang Kingdom, where the child has lived since he was a child, can become strong, so that not only will foreign enemies dare not come to attack again, but also you, father, ...... You don't have to go to war all year round. ”

What Li Yi said was a true thought from the bottom of his heart.

Only when the country is peaceful and the national strength is strong, and foreign thieves dare not have the heart to invade, this kind of comfortable and quiet life is the life Li Yi wants to live the most.

After hearing Li Yi's words, Li Jing couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and glanced at Li Yi in a little surprise, but then he smiled and came back to his senses.

"San Lang, you can have this idea, it is a blessing for the people of the world, and you are worthy of being my descendant of the Li family!" Gently patting Li Yi's shoulder, Li Jing waved his hand and urged: "Hurry up and go back to rest, it's not too early." ”

"The father...... You rest early, and the child will retire first. Li Yi smiled and bowed, and then turned to leave.

Looking at the straight back of Li Yi's departure, at this moment, Li Jing's eyes couldn't help but be slightly wet.

"A certain Saburo has really grown up now......"

Li Jing, who pretended to look up at the sky, reached out and gently wiped his eyelids, quickly eliminated the "evidence", and then took a deep breath, and then cut his hands back and went back to the house.

------

The next day, the Tang calendar, the twenty-seventh day of the lunar month.

Li Yi took Yue'er and practiced a few sets of Tai Chi as always, and then, after taking a bath under Yue'er's careful service, he suddenly felt a sense of relaxation.

However, instead of wearing a government office and going to the secretary's ministry, he changed into white casual clothes and chose to stay at home, planning the materials needed to carve things.

After all, the current secretary province, not only Wei Zheng, a big man, is there, but Yan Shigu, who compiled the book, has also changed his mind and began to compile fables wholeheartedly.

Li Yi believes that in less than two days, those two fables will be able to be distributed from Li Shimin's hands to the people of the whole country.

What's more, when I went home last night, I saw that Wei Zheng had already been annoyed by himself, and if Li Yi went to the secretary province again today, he was only afraid of ...... He will be taught a good lesson by Wei Zheng.

Li Yi decisively chose to be at home and be a beautiful man quietly, which is the best policy.

"In two days, it's Chinese New Year's Eve night......"

Thinking that the time was tight now, and the first day of junior high school was the big day of his engagement, Li Yi had to hurry up and quickly buy back all the materials needed for carving as soon as possible.

"Yue'er, let's go, go to the street with my son, and go pick up New Year's goods!" Li Yi suddenly got up and shouted at Yue'er, who was practicing calligraphy with a sad face.

"Okay, Childe, Yue'er is here!"

As soon as she heard that she was no longer practicing calligraphy painfully, but followed Li Yi to the street, Yue'er happily put down the brush in her hand, followed Li Yi's pace in three steps and two steps, and went out together.

Breathing in the fresh air outside, Yue'er felt that her whole spirit was much more relaxed than before.

Seeing Yue'er so happy, different from the sorrowful frown when practicing calligraphy, Li Yi smiled angrily and asked, "Silly girl, why don't you like to practice calligraphy?" Is it any harm to you to read and read more? ”

"Childe, it's not that Yue'er doesn't like to practice calligraphy."

Yue'er's face was stunned for a moment, and then she replied with a smile, "Childe's handwriting is so beautiful and beautiful, but Yue'er's handwriting is ...... No matter how you practice or write, it's always as ugly as a loach crawling, Yue'er...... Yue'er was under a lot of pressure in her heart. ”

"......" Li Yi was speechless for a moment, Mu Ran knocked Yue'er's little head, and scolded softly, "Lazy is lazy, and you still make such a good excuse for yourself?" You see, in the whole world, there is a person whose handwriting is born to be good-looking? ”

"Yes!" Yue'er nodded without thinking.

Li Yi's pace forward almost didn't stop, his eyes were stunned and he looked at Yue'er with a serious face, and asked out loud, "Who?" ”

"Childe, you-" Yue'er said, "Childe writes, and he has always been good at writing since he was a child!" ”

"......" Li Yi was made to cry and laugh by Yue'er's words.

Yue'er, this girl, is she patting him nakedly? Why didn't Li Yi find out that Yue'er, a stupid girl, was still slapping on the back?

"Yue'er, have you ever heard of a sentence?" While continuing to look for a timber shop, Li Yi asked with a smile.

"What's the matter, Childe?" Yue'er said curiously.

"Those who are close to Zhu are red, and those who are close to ink are black." Li Yi said.

"I've heard of it!" Yue'er smiled and nodded.

"Heard? Now that you've heard it, it's all easy. Li Yi nodded, and then said seriously, "After waiting for a while to go back, double the amount of tasks you need to practice today!" ”

"......" Yue'er immediately lowered her head speechlessly, followed behind Li Yi weakly, and muttered to herself in her heart, "After hearing this sentence, what does it have to do with Yue'er's practice of calligraphy..."

------

It didn't take long for Li Yi to take Yue'er to the largest shop in Chang'an City, called "Liu Ji Timber".

Liu Ji, the shopkeeper who was looking at the shop in the store, saw Li Yi's familiar face, and immediately greeted him with a smile.

"Childe, do you want to choose wood?" Liu Ji said with a smile, "The wood in the villain's store is the best in the whole Chang'an, no matter what wood you need, the small store has everything!" ”

Li Yi smiled, glanced at the ordinary wood placed in the store, and asked directly: "Shopkeeper, is there Qinglong wood?" ”

"Yes!" Shopkeeper Liu Ji nodded honestly and swept the door with a vigilant expression, but seeing that no one else came in outside the door, he cautiously approached Li Yi's ear and said softly, "Childe, please inside." ”

"Okay." Seeing that Liu Ji was as cautious as a thief, Li Yi couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly, and then stepped into the back room of the store.

Without Li Yi to speak, Liu Ji had already instructed the second child in the store to quickly bring a green dragon tree the size of a juju and place it in front of Li Yi, Liu Ji smiled and said: "Childe, this is the best green dragon tree in the small shop!" ”

Li Yi nodded, did not speak, but squatted down and observed carefully.

Qinglongmu, also known as rosewood.

It belongs to the butterfly flower family, subtropical evergreen tree, a complete green dragon tree, about five or six zhang high, the leaves are compound leaf flower butterfly-shaped, the fruit has wings, the wood is very strong, the color is red, and the red sandalwood sinks when it enters the water.

Looking at the green dragon tree that Liu Ji ordered people to take out, Li Yi observed it for a long time, and couldn't help but shake his head slightly.

Because he found that the color of this green dragon tree was not so obvious as purple and black, and its brown eyes were also a little sparse, and there were some slight scars on the trunk, and the trunk of this green dragon was even more straight, and it was completely incompatible with the green dragon wood that Li Yi knew.

This green dragon wood, although it is also a green dragon wood, should not be the best green dragon wood!

"Shopkeeper, you're a little inauthentic, aren't you?" Li Yi suddenly raised his eyebrows and looked at Liu Ji, shook his head and said, "Your green dragon wood, just looking at its brown eyes and color, it doesn't look like the best green dragon wood, not to mention, where is there such a green dragon wood with a straight trunk?" ”

"This ......" was said by Li Yi, and all of them said several points of Qinglongmu, and the heart of the shopkeeper Liu Ji suddenly became a little panicked.

In the eyes of the shopkeeper Liu Ji, Li Yi in front of him is just a gentleman of a noble family, and it would be good to fool him around.

He never expected that Li Yi would be able to recognize ...... The material of Qinglong wood is so good.

The green dragon wood he sold to other nobles before was exactly the same green dragon wood, but he had never seen it, who would be as tricky as Li Yi......

"Childe, this is indeed the best green dragon wood, in the villain's store, this kind of green dragon wood sells the best, and the material is also the best." Liu Ji explained with some humility.

"Are you sure?" Li Yi looked at Liu Ji with a smile, "There is no better green dragon wood of higher quality?" ”

“…… Childe, please wait for a while, the villain will go and find the other wood one by one, Childe may wish to choose one. Throwing down this sentence, Liu Ji, who was weak-hearted, took the second child in the store and quickly turned around to carry the other wood.

Now, the material grade of this green dragon wood has been seen through by Li Yi, Liu Ji knows very well in his heart, if he can't find a wood that satisfies Li Yi today, he is afraid that he will ...... It's hard to get mixed up in Chang'an anymore.

Therefore, Liu Ji did not dare to have the slightest slack and carelessness.

Seeing Liu Ji leaving in such a panic, Li Yi was also happy to be idle, so he simply sat on the side and waited.

After all, in the entire Chang'an City, the wood belonging to Liu Ji Timber Shop is of the best quality.

But at this moment, outside the back courtyard of Liu Ji's timber shop, a voice familiar to Li Yi suddenly came: "Shopkeeper, hurry up and die for my son, and find the best Qinglong wood in your store!" ”

The voice of the eldest grandson chong came to Li Yi's ears very arrogantly through the air.

Immediately after, Li Yi only heard a sound sound, and the eldest grandson Chong opened the curtain of the backyard door with his own hands, and as soon as he showed his head, he happened to see Li Yi sitting leisurely.

"Li Bo'an, why are you here?" The eldest grandson Chong stared at Li Yi vigilantly, and the guard in his hand still held the action of lifting the door curtain, like a yellow flower girl who had not left the cabinet.

"Hehe......" This scene of Changsun Chong's action made Yue'er cover her mouth and chuckle on the spot.

When Li Yi saw this scene, he couldn't help but laugh.

However, Li Yi still forcibly resisted the urge to laugh in his heart, showed a mouthful of white and neat teeth, and said with a smile: "What a coincidence, eldest grandson, you also came here to buy wood?" ”

"......" Eldest Sun Chong was suddenly speechless and dumbfounded by Li Yi's words.
