Chapter 940: News from the Martial Family

"I ...... I want to go to military school! Under Li Xiu's signal, Li Jin finally said what he thought in his heart, in fact, sometimes Li Xiu also felt that Princess Pingyang was too strict with Li Jin, so that now Li Jin didn't dare to express his true thoughts in front of Princess Pingyang, which was not a good thing, so he encouraged him to tell the truth.

Unexpectedly, Princess Pingyang did not get angry when she heard Li Jin's words, but looked at him very calmly, and then spoke again: "Do you know what the military academy is for?" ”

"Of course I know, the military academy was established at the suggestion of my father, and it was built to train future generals for our Tang Dynasty, and Huaidao and several of them also went to the military academy, and they will be able to lead troops to fight like Uncle Qin and them in the future!" Li Jin saw that his mother did not immediately object, and he couldn't help but reply with a boost of energy.

"Hehe, children always think that fighting a war is a very majestic and fun thing, but do you know that fighting a war is to kill people, even if it is a general, sometimes it is impossible to ensure your own safety, and on the battlefield, you also have to know how to make trade-offs, and even send your relatives and friends to the battlefield to die, can you bear these?" But then Princess Pingyang's face changed, and her expression became very cold and asked.

"I ...... I ......" Although Li Jin is young, he can also experience the sadness in his mother's words, which makes him not know how to answer for a while, but he is stubborn by nature but still refuses to retreat, and at this time he looked up with a small face full of unconvinced expressions, probably thinking that others can, of course he can.

"Xiuning, isn't it too early to talk to the child about this?" Seeing this, Li Xiu hurriedly handed over Li Luo in his hand to the nurse next to him, and then stepped forward to persuade him, after all, Li Jin was still young, and letting him accept the cruelty on the battlefield would probably leave a shadow in his heart.

"Since he wants to go to the military academy, sooner or later he must understand the cruelty of the battlefield, it is better to know sooner than later, and if he can't even afford this, I think he should stay at home honestly!" Princess Pingyang said again mercilessly, she has always been tougher than Li Xiu in educating her son.

"Of course I know about the death of people on the battlefield, and mother, you can command thousands of troops as a woman, and naturally you can't lose to you as a son!" Li Jin finally broke out at this time, and replied loudly at the moment, his little face was also flushed, he was so big, it was the first time he dared to talk to his mother like this.

However, hearing her son's words, Princess Pingyang showed a faint smile, and after a while, she said slowly: "It's good to have this ambition, but you also have to remember today's words, if you go to the military academy in the future, don't retreat because you can't endure hardship!" ”

As soon as Princess Pingyang's words came out, Li Jin was stunned for a moment, and only after a moment did he react, and shouted ecstatically: "Mother agreed, I can go to the military academy?" ”

Seeing her son's happy appearance, Princess Pingyang nodded with a smile, which made Li Jin even laugh and jump, and then ran to share the good news with others, and after a while, the whole family knew that he was going to the military academy.

"Xiuning, do you really plan to let your son become a military general in the future?" Li Xiu finally reacted at this time, and asked Princess Pingyang in a low voice at the moment, although he did not object to Li Jin going to the military academy, but Princess Pingyang's change was too big, making him a little unacceptable for a while.

"There are many kinds of generals, it is the generals who go into battle to fight, and the ones who guard the Mingde Gate are also generals, husband, what kind of generals do you think Jin'er will be in the future?" When Princess Pingyang said the end, she showed a rare naughty expression.

"Huh? This ......" Li Xiu couldn't help but be stunned when he saw Princess Pingyang's appearance, he didn't expect Princess Pingyang to play such a trick in this matter, poor Li Jin was only happy, but he didn't know that even if he went to the military academy, he might not have the opportunity to go to the battlefield in the future.

Princess Pingyang saw Li Xiu's speechless appearance, but she smiled proudly at the moment, and then turned her head to hug Li Luo and left, and Li Xiu turned her head to look at Li Jin, who was sharing happiness with others, but couldn't help but show a little wry smile, sometimes it is not a good thing to have a strong mother, and he can only try to reconcile with it as a father.

However, Li Xiu soon thought that although Princess Pingyang had set a future development path for Li Jin, she forgot one thing, that is, everything is changing, and the plan to catch up with the change is the truth, no one is sure of what will happen in the future, not to mention that Li Jin's personality is also very similar to Princess Pingyang, as he grows up, I am afraid he will not be willing to accept his mother's arrangement.

Thinking of the above, Li Xiu couldn't help but shake his head with a headache, it seems that this family will not want to be peaceful in the future.

"Father, what are you shaking your head, aren't you happy for me?" But at this moment, I suddenly saw Li Jin running in front of Li Xiu again and asked excitedly.

"Of course my father is happy for you, but I just thought of some other things, why don't you play with them?" Li Xiu also hurriedly prevaricated at this time, he didn't dare to tell Li Jin what Princess Pingyang really thought, so as not to make him discouraged because of this, and he felt that Li Jin also had some advantages to going to the military academy, such as the strict management of the military academy could allow him to restrain his temperament, so as not to really become a gentleman in the future.

"I forgot to ask you about something just now, didn't Mingkong return to Fuling and Merge Prefecture, it's been so long, why hasn't he come back yet, and she hasn't replied to the letter I wrote to her?" Li Jin asked with a frowning face at this time, although he and Wu Mingkong often fight, but the relationship is the best, last year Wu Shi Tong died, Wu Mingkong and his mother Yang and others went back to Bingzhou to bury Wu Shi Tong, and now they have been gone for several months, and they have not come back, so he is also very worried.

"Calculate the time, Mingkong and they should indeed come back, but the mountains and roads are far away, and the road is very difficult to walk, and your letter may not be delivered, even if Mingkong receives a letter to you in reply, the letter may still be on the way, so don't worry, I'll let people inquire about the news in the past two days!" Li Xiu heard his son ask about Wu Mingkong's situation, and replied after pondering for a moment.

"Well, it's a pity that Mingkong isn't here, there's no way to let her know about me going to the military school!" When Li Jin heard Li Xiu's words, he was a little disappointed, and after speaking, he asked Li Xiu about the situation of the military academy, and then he happily ran to play.

After seeing his son leave, Li Xiu's face slowly became solemn, in fact, since the New Year, Li Xiu thought of Wu Mingkong, after all, their mother and daughter have been gone for half a year, and there are also Wu Yuanqing and Wu Yuanshuang brothers who went together, these two are not good birds, and the Wu mother and daughter were driven out of the house directly in history, otherwise Wu Mingkong would not have entered the palace to be a little talent.

Of course, the situation is a little different now, Wu Mingkong is his own student, and when he was in Chang'an, the Wu brothers didn't dare to bully her too much, but now that they have gone to Bingzhou, it's hard to say, and although Wu Mingkong is smart, he is an underage child after all, and he may not be able to do anything about his two rogue brothers.

It is precisely because of this that Li Xiu asked someone to inquire about the news over there some time ago, and even wanted to send someone directly to the state, but considering that the mountains and rivers are far away, it will take a few months to walk on the road alone, so it is better to inquire from someone from the state, after all, the martial arts family is also the leading nobleman in the state, and someone should know some news.

However, what disappointed Li Xiu was that although he heard some news about the martial arts during this time, it was all very common things, such as how luxurious the funeral of the warrior Tong was, how luxurious the cemetery was built, etc., as for the news of Wu Mingkong's mother and daughter, he didn't hear it at all, but it was normal to think about it, after all, ordinary people can't see Wu Mingkong's mother and daughter.

Although he didn't hear any news about Wu Mingkong, Li Xiu heard some news about the Wu brothers, after all, they were men, and Wu Shitong's funeral had always been attended by them, so there were many people who had seen them, and the two of them often went out after the funeral, and they came into contact with more people.

Speaking of which, after the Wu brothers returned to Bingzhou, they were very peaceful at first, mainly to deal with their father's funeral, but after the burial of the warriors, the two of them slowly became familiar with Bingzhou, and the result was soon revealed in their true form, and they did a lot of evil things in the Bingzhou side, and the assassins did not dare to care, and the notoriety of the two of them also spread throughout the Bingzhou for a while, becoming a local tyrant.

After Li Xiu learned the news that the Wu brothers were doing something wrong in Bingzhou, he was also very annoyed in his heart, because the reason why the two of them dared to do this was nothing more than relying on the blessing left by the warrior Tong, originally this kind of blessing was to let them have a higher starting point, so as to serve the imperial court, but now they are using this blessing to satisfy their own selfish interests, which will sooner or later ruin the reputation of the warrior Tong, and the blessing will also be consumed, and then Wu Mingkong will also be affected.

What's more, Wu Shi Tong was still half of Li Xiu's friend before his death, so he was even more annoyed by the Wu brothers' actions, but the Wu brothers are all adults, not even a few years younger than Li Xiu, and their personalities have already been formed, and it is impossible to change at all, and Li Xiu has no way to help if he wants to.

Thinking of the above, Li Xiu couldn't help but feel worthless for Wu Shitong, he worked hard all his life, and finally changed from a businessman to the founding hero of the Tang Dynasty, but he didn't expect to meet the sons of two losers, and ruined his reputation in his first life, fortunately, there is also Wu Mingkong's daughter, who became the emperor in the original history, which revitalized the martial family, but in this life, due to the arrival of Li Xiu, can Wu Mingkong be the emperor like in history? 21010
