Chapter 12: Returning Home

"Hahaha...... Drinking too much, he drank stupidly. The long face laughed, pointing at Cai Gang, the more he looked at it, the more funny he felt, and finally he couldn't help laughing.

Cai Gang was sad and couldn't help crying loudly, crying heartbreakingly, crying liver and intestines. Those people have his brothers, old friends for many years, and Cai Cong, the hope of the Cai family!

Laughing and crying, joy and sorrow, life is changeable, and all kinds of flavors are derived on a table. Everyone who saw this scene couldn't help but shake their heads and walked away.

Cai Gang didn't know how he left the restaurant, he didn't dare to go back, how to tell everyone the news? Looking at a face full of expectation, he couldn't say something desperate.

Not far from the restaurant, the three of them were taken down by Wuhou who was patrolling the night. After the curfew, you can't go out at night, whether you pee on the street, or if you drink too much and can't walk, you will be locked up first, and your identity will be found out the next day.

At this moment, in Jin Wuwei's back office, Cai Cong looked at Li Ji expectantly. Li Ji drank a little wine leisurely and ate a few bites of side dishes from time to time.

After a while, Li Ji found that Cai Cong was looking at the books in his hand very calmly, and he no longer had the anxious look just now, and couldn't help but be depressed.

"How do you read the book and don't worry about the safety of your mother and fellow villagers?"

"You're still a master of the art of war, why are you so stupid?" Cai Cong said without raising his head, and continued to flip through the books in his hand.

"Come on, come on...... Boy, you dare to humiliate the old man like this. If you don't say a meridian ugly thing today, no matter how smart you are, the old man will definitely beat your ass until it blooms. ”

Li Ji got up and left his seat, and hugged Cai Cong with a cruel smile. Who is he? Li Shimin didn't dare to say that he was stupid, let alone the eight-year-old child in front of him.

This can scare Cai Cong, these guys from the military are not a few weak scholars, even Fang Xuanling is carrying a knife to kill the enemy, not to mention Li Ji, a military division-level figure!

He dropped the book in his hand and said solemnly: "A few days ago, when you saw me, you turned around and left, and when you had a question to ask me, you patted your chest and promised that you would find my family, but tonight you didn't avoid me, and you still looked high, doesn't this mean that you have found my family?" ”

Li Ji's face darkened, he didn't expect that he would make such a low-level mistake. Look at Cai Cong again, is this kid really an eight-year-old child? It can't be a monster in the mountains, right?

Thinking about it, the movements of his hands could not stop, and as soon as he put Cai Cong on his lap, he removed his pants.

"What, what are you doing? Am I not right? Damn, you're really fighting, do you have any humanity? Lao Tzu is still a child! It hurts me, stop! ”

"Hey...... You're right. But the old man wants to beat you the same, without him, he is annoyed and angry. Li Ji said with a wicked smile, but his hands kept slapping, slapping Cai Cong's little buttocks.

"Shu Tan......" After the fight, Li Ji said refreshedly, this kid is in a demon's mind, these days he fights wits and fights, he always loses more and wins less, and he has long wanted to beat him. Let's talk about what to do! The Turks have arrived at the Wei River, and they can cross the river to attack Chang'an at any time, but the situation is extremely critical! ”

When later generations talked about the Weishui Alliance, they only said that Li Shimin took a few of his subordinates to negotiate with the Turks.

Cai Cong rolled his eyes, his butt hurt and he bared his teeth. "I don't know anything, don't ask me. You are professional in these things, I don't believe that General Li Jing did not make good arrangements! ”

Cai Cong said angrily, he crossed over, but crossing is not omnipotent, the ghost knows how Li Shimin made the Turks retreat back then.

"I didn't say that I want you to call the shots, if you have any ideas, say them and listen to them." Li Ji was not forced, since Cai Cong gave him advice to take the initiative, the frightened Turks did not dare to act rashly, and they coincidentally thought of cutting off the Turks' grain and grass like Li Jing. He no longer thinks Cai Cong is a child.

Even he himself was afraid that cutting off grain and grass would make the Turks go crazy and attack Chang'an, but this little ghost thought that he wouldn't, and the statement was the same as that of the god of war, what a terrible mind this should be! He's only eight years old!

"Cheng Biting Jin, Niu Jinda, the generals should have already led their troops to Chang'an, and the other Qinwang's troops should also be on the way. At this time, it is time to boast of force, so many Turkic tribes are not all of one mind, if they find that it is not beneficial to attack Chang'an, the patriarchs of many tribes will retreat, and then Jieli will have to retreat. ”

"That's true, but what else?" Li Ji closed his eyes and thought for a while before nodding and saying.

"You can't think for yourself when you're so big, huh? My butt hurts so much that I can't think of it. Cai Congzhi felt that his buttocks were getting more and more painful, and he said angrily!

"Huh? To say or not to say? Li Ji snorted coldly and raised his palm. Said with a sneer.

"Say, I can't say it's okay? What are the Turks calling for? Nothing more than for gold, silver, and grain. Let's first send someone to reprimand Jieli for his treachery and attack Datang for no reason, and our attitude must be tough. and then promised to privately make several large tribes on the Turkic side retreat with heavy profits,

If someone takes the lead, there will be someone who will blindly follow. At this time, Jieli is estimated to be retreating, and then at this time, if His Majesty proposes to re-establish a non-aggression pact and give Jieli the treasures in the treasury, Jieli will inevitably withdraw from the army. ”

"Hateful! If you give Datang a few more years to recuperate, why would you suffer such a great humiliation, the old man is unwilling! Li Ji said with a sad and indignant face, pulled out the saber at his waist, and cut off the desk in front of him with a sword.

"This is a great shame, but we in Datang must be united in our hearts when we suffer this great humiliation. After a few years of recuperation, when they recovered, the whole country worked together to pacify the Turks and exterminate them all. ”

Cai Cong also looked indignant, as a cultural thief, the more he knows about Chinese culture, the more he knows how many disasters this nation has suffered over thousands of years, and how many times it has stood up again.

"That's right! This humiliation must be washed away with blood. The old man is going to the palace to discuss matters, your fellow villagers are all in Chang'an, and I have sent someone to watch. However, you can't leave the Right Guard for the time being, and Your Majesty may summon you at any time. ”

"It's delicious and delicious here, and I'm reluctant to leave! However, my villagers asked the government to let them go home first, so that they would not have to worry about their families, and second, they could report a letter to my mother. ”

"It's good to say, your mother lives in the Temple of Mercy and Grace. After dawn, someone will take you to the prison to see your fellow villagers, and if you have anything to explain, you will be able to explain, but you are not allowed to go back with you. Li Ji said seriously.

Cai Cong rolled his eyes, and despised the guy in front of him from the bottom of his heart, his suspicion was too serious. Where is the security of the military guard in the chaos of war? If he could, he would have taken his mother over.

Early the next morning, Cai Cong saw the villagers who were locked up, and it seemed that they didn't suffer much, but they were a little sluggish, and they were scared.

As soon as they saw Cai Cong, they cried out in pain: "Brother Cai, you were also arrested?" Oh my God, what kind of world is this? ”

"Don't howl! Cai Gongzi is here to let you go home, you can leave. It was Li Ji's guards who spoke, and he would not be polite to these peasants.

"Huh?" The crying villagers stopped abruptly, and some of them choked on their own saliva and kept coughing.

"Uncle Daejeon, and all the uncles and brothers have been frightened these days, and now you can go back. By the way, the Turks are coming, the court is strong, and the people in our village are living in the Temple of Mercy and Grace, and someone will send you there in a while. ”

Cai Cong said softly, looking at these simple faces, he felt a little guilty, it was because of his naturalness that they were imprisoned for no reason.

"We? Then Brother Cai, why don't you go with us? Official, he's still a child, don't arrest him, arrest me! I bought the rice, and I want to close it, and I want to kill you, and I came at me and let this child go. Cai Datian said without hesitation.

"Fuck off, who said they were going to arrest Cai Gongzi? He is a distinguished guest of our Guogong, and he will be a guest in the Guogong Mansion and will not go back for the time being. The guard said angrily, but there was a hint of appreciation in his eyes, a good man is respected wherever he is.

"Uncle Datian, don't worry, I'll go back in a few days. I'm tired of you and my mother saying that I eat well and live well here, so don't worry about me. ”

Cai Datian and his entourage were sent to the Temple of Mercy and Grace in a daze, what is this? After being locked up for so many days, it was suddenly released, which gave them a very unreal feeling.

On the other hand, Cai Gang and the three of them were whipped up, and then they were blasted out by Wuhou. But they'd rather be locked up, how can they talk when they go back? Called to buy a coffin, ready to collect the body for Daejeon? Or will you be orphans and widows in the future?

Those who should have come will still come, and when they return to the outside of the Temple of Mercy and Grace, they will be seen. immediately shouted: "Uncle Gang, everyone has been waiting for you for a day and a night, what is the situation now?" Did you get it? ”

"Hehe, I asked. Let's go in and talk! Cai Gang laughed very reluctantly, only to feel that his head was buzzing.

"Did Uncle Gang ask? Did you say how to let people out? ”

"That's right! Brother Cai, are they okay? ”

As soon as I entered, a bunch of people surrounded me and asked nonsense. Looking at the expectant faces, Cai Gang only felt that his throat was blocked by something, and he couldn't speak for a while.

"How...... Won't you let it out? The face of anticipation froze, and tears immediately welled up in his eyes, and there was a possibility of breaking the embankment at any time.

Cai Gang closed his eyes and cried out through gritted teeth: "The government asked us to prepare the coffin and collect the corpse for them." ”

Hearing this, Sister Cai only felt that the world was spinning and she fell headlong. Other people can't get any better, for a while, the whole Ci'en Temple cried and shook the sky, and the old man couldn't go there, without these young adults, Caijia Village had a lot less hope, and he was bedridden for a while.

After confirming it again and again, the old man was already desperate and ordered someone to buy a coffin and a shroud or something. Sister Cai was lying on the kang, looking at the roof with her eyes, and there was no trace of brilliance, she sacrificed so much, did she still have to cut off the incense later?

"Sister, look at it, if you don't go back, my eldest baby will come to the uncle's room......" Cai Gang and his family came in to persuade Sister Cai, but unfortunately Sister Cai'er's soul was dead at this time, and it was useless to say anything.

At this time, Cai Datian and his entourage finally came to the Temple of Mercy and Grace, and saw more than a dozen coffins parked at the door from a distance, and the spirit flags or something were put down on the wall. What's going on? So many people died at once.

"Erwa, what's going on in the village?" Daejeon's voice trembled, and he grabbed the shoulder of a person who was working in front of him.

"I'm annoying! Is it interesting to ask knowingly? Hey, Uncle Datian, didn't the government say that they would execute you? Erwa looked at the intact Datian in front of her and cried out in surprise.

"Execute us, no! The government let us back. What about the others? ”

"It's all in the temple. Uncle Gang came back this morning and said that the government was going to execute you, and many people were angry, and now there is a mess inside, so go in and take a look. It didn't take long for Cai Gang's screams to sound in Ci'en Temple, beating a person in a village, this kind of scene is the first time since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, right?
