Chapter 15
It's just that no one else knows.
Seeing that Li Chengji has made such progress, Li Shichang is very pleased.
After all, he remembered that Li Chengji used to hate reading very much. The opening chapter of "The Book of Filial Piety" was finally remembered by him when he forced Li Chengji. As for the articles in "Analects", "University", and "The Mean", I have never answered correctly.
It's a surprise to be so good now.
took off the majesty of the strong outfit, and told Li Chengji in a gentle tone to pay more attention to his body. When it's good, you can tame the sweaty BMW he specially brought back from Khorezm.
This was the mount of the Sultan of Gur! After capturing the Sultan himself, the mount fell into the hands of Da Liao. Knowing that Li Chengji loved horses, Li Shichang specially asked the emperor for an order to give him the good horse.
As the prime minister of the dynasty, the king of the Southern Courtyard, and the minister of the humerus of Da Liao, the emperor naturally did not allow it.
So this hard-to-buy sweaty BMW was transferred to Li Chengji's hands.
Although until now, Lee Seungji has never ridden a horse. But that doesn't stop him from having a love for the bloody BMW. So after hearing that Li Shichang gave it to himself, the joy in his heart couldn't be suppressed.
Not only that, Li Shichang also gave ten captives of the Gur Kingdom to Li Chengji as his subordinates. These are battle-hardened soldiers who crawled out of the pile of the dead. Needless to say, force and courage. Even if he becomes a prisoner, the soldier's blood in his bones is not so easy to erase.
Once used well, these people will become a sharp knife to kill the enemy.
Therefore, Li Chengji attaches great importance to this matter in his heart. Even far away, more than the sweat BMW.
It's just that he can't get out of it at the moment, otherwise he really wants to talk to these captives.
Li Shichang doesn't know about this!
He saw that Li Chengji's body was thin and he had made so much progress in his studies, so he felt sorry for him. I want to give some subordinates with good force to keep them safe.
Who knew that Lee Seung-ji would attach so much importance to it.
Feeling Li Shichang's full care, Li Chengji's heart also gushed out with an indescribable warmth. As a result, his first impression of Li Shichang has also become excellent.
After that, the family got together for a reunion dinner. Except for Li Chengji's eldest brother Li Chengye, who was a guard by the emperor's side. The rest of the Li family are all here. Like the two concubines who rarely show up, as well as the third and fourth sisters who are still learning to speak, they all went to the table together.
It's just that compared with the wide dining table, the Li family still looks thin.
There's no way around it.
Who made the Li family not a famous family! My grandfather's generation was just a petty officer who moved west with the army. In the borders of Balasagon they are completely unaccompanied.
If it weren't for Li Shichang's willingness to work hard to study, he would have been favored by Xiao Weili, the king of the Sixth Academy. Now, perhaps, it's still a Tian Shelang.
This made Li Chengji have a lot of admiration for Li Shichang.
Because Li Shichang can have today's status, to a large extent, he earned it by himself. Although there is also the factor of riding the dragon and being a fast son-in-law, if he doesn't have any ability, he won't be able to get into Xiao Wei's eyes at all.
Thinking like this, he also had greater confidence in his decision.
After eating and drinking for about half an hour, the family laughed and laughed and dispersed.
Li Chengji also took advantage of this break to come to the prisoners' residences.
Because he was afraid that they would not obey the discipline, Li Shichang deliberately ordered someone to grind off their sharpness. So they shut them up in the empty stables, and kept them under strict care.
When Li Chengji came, he smelled a pungent stench from a distance.
When they got closer, the captives of more than 80 Gur were all unkempt. The clothes were as if they hadn't been washed for months, and they were scarily dirty. It looks like a bunch of beggars.
Seeing Li Chengji, everyone's eyes were full of scrutiny. There were even unruly ones, and they deliberately glared at Li Chengji a few times.
Seeing this, Li Chengji responded very generously to the past. The whole look was not the slightest fear.
After observing nearly a stick of incense in this way, Li Chengji also had a rough idea in his heart. He instructed Li Dali, who was beside him, to go to the kitchen to get some food.
At the same time, he said to the captives in the stables: "Later, I will have someone bring you food." When I have enough strength, I will choose ten of you to be your personal guards. Not only can I be fed and clothed every day, but I also have five gold dinars for a month. ”。
In Central Asia, there are many types of currencies, which leads to a very chaotic monetary system. Therefore, hard currencies such as gold and silver have been most widely recognized. This gold dinar is the synonym for gold coins.
Hearing Li Chengji's words, the captives were silent. There was even deep suspicion in his eyes. In the end, Li Chengji's age is too young, which makes it difficult to convince people what he says.
Seeing such a result, Li Chengji was not annoyed. Knowing these people, they are very realistic people. Wishing to gain their trust with a few kind words is completely foolish.
waited for Li Dali to bring a large bucket of steaming naan, so that people could distribute it in a timely manner.
The captives, who were only half-fed every day and did not choose to eat, suddenly had green eyes. They all came to the fence and scrambled to reach out and beg for it. provoked the guards who guarded, and they were scolded and beaten. The leather whip was whing, and Li Chengji looked at it in pain.
But he didn't stop him!
Because these captives really need to be rubbed sharp. Otherwise, if you put it around you in the future, you won't have to worry about using it.
waited until the captives were all quiet before ordering Li Dali to continue the distribution.
Probably hungry! The captives clutched the hot naan with their dirty hands and stuffed it into their mouths with great speed. Some of them were in a hurry to eat, and they were so choked that they rolled their eyes.
Originally, Li Chengji also wanted to strike while the iron was hot and let these people show their strength. So that you can pick out the ten people who are most satisfied.
But Li Xiao sent someone to tell him to prepare well and go to the king's tent for a banquet in the evening.
He could only tell Li Dali to pay more attention to the movements of the captives.
When it got dark, Li Chengji was already surrounded by his subordinates, and he had freshened up. He was also wearing a very well-tailored Han-style dress. Looking in the mirror, he is really a handsome young man.
Therefore, the palace feast was specially organized by the queen to celebrate the emperor's victory. Therefore, all court officials and envoys from various countries who are above the sixth rank in the court must bring their families with them.
As the eldest son of the Li family, Li Chengji naturally has this qualification to meet the world with Li Shichang.
In this way, I took a car to the East City Gate, and a luxurious carriage blocked the road. Such a lively scene is the first time Li Chengji has seen it when he comes to Daliao. I lifted the curtains and looked around curiously.
Just as he was looking around, a carriage suddenly stopped to his right.
Li Chengji was also instantly attracted by the people in the carriage.
It was a woman in a pale blue skirt and a Han Chinese headdress. Willow eyebrows, melon seed face, fair skin, very delicate. At first glance, it reveals the unique aura of a Jiangnan girl.
In this mixed-race Balasagon with a wide variety of people and rough folk customs, it is really rare.
