East Palace.

"Brother of the courtier, see brother of the prince." Li Zhi said.

"Ninth brother, you're back. Don't be so polite in the future, it's better to call your brother six. Li Su said happily.

"Sixth brother." Li Zhi said happily.

Li Zhi also received a notice to come to participate in the commemoration of Li Shimin's enthronement celebration.

The two of them chatted for a while, and then they talked about the Naval Research Institute. As soon as this topic was mentioned, Li Zhi's chatterbox opened.

During this period of time, Li Zhicheng has been mixed with the navy army all day, and he is now very familiar with the situation of the navy. He talked endlessly about the situation of various ships of the navy, and he had a very clear grasp of the technical characteristics of various ships.

He said proudly: "Sixth brother, I am a very good swimmer now, compared to those who were born by the water in the south, it is not bad." ”

"Sixth brother, you are really good, you are better than me. I faint when I see the water, and it seems that I can't learn to swim in my life. Li Su smiled.

Li Zhi said: "Oh, it's not the sixth brother. At first, I was worried about the water, but then I realized that swimming is very easy to learn. It's still cold, and after my father's enthronement celebration, I'll teach you how to swim. ”

Li Su took out a stack of drawings from the bookshelf, spread them out on the table, and said to Li Zhi: "Ninth brother, you come to see this." ”

When Li Zhi saw it, his eyes immediately widened. It turns out that these drawings are some very beautiful naval warships, which look very powerful.

Li Zhi pointed to the tubular things sticking out of it and asked, "This is the Furlong cannon, right?" "The cannon has just been built, and Li Zhi has not seen it yet.

"You're right, this is the Franc cannon. However, they have been named Shenmu Cannons by their fathers. These sail battleships, compared to the warships that our Datang is equipped with now, are really not a little bit good, you study them carefully, and build this in the future. Li Su said.

Li Zhi's eyes lit up, staring at those drawings, and his fingers couldn't help but caress the battleships on those drawings.

Seeing Li Zhi's obsessive appearance, Li Su said: "This is the relevant information about the sail battleship, you can take it back and study it carefully." As he spoke, he handed him a large stack of materials.

Li Zhi said: "Sixth brother, I'll take it back to see it now." ”

Li Zhi said in his heart: "Li Zhi is really a material for scientific research, looking at his obsessive appearance, it shows that the director of the Naval Research Institute has chosen the right person." ”

He said, "Okay, you can go back with these materials now." But you just came back, don't do any research, go to the big world on time at six o'clock to meet, and the sixth brother will pick you up. ”

"Thank you, Sixth Brother. Then I'll take my leave. Li Zhi said happily. After saying that, he picked up the drawings with his own hands and walked out.

At five o'clock, I heard that Li Su was going to the big world, and the princesses also wanted to follow. In this day and age, women can't go to this kind of entertainment alone. They can only be accompanied by their husbands, or brothers.

Li Su smiled: "Okay, babies, everyone go together." Then he said: "Ning'er, you go to Yang Kang, ask him to call Li Dan and Du He, bring his family, and everyone go together." ”

When they arrived at the big world, after dinner, Li Su and other men opened a private room alone, drinking and chatting. Their wives each opened a private room.

The brothers had a great time, and by 11 o'clock in the evening, when the ladies were already a little sleepy, they arranged for them to go back first. The brothers stopped watching the cabaret performance, went to the bar and found a private room, and continued to drink and chat.

Li Su said to Li Zhi: "Ninth brother, you just came back, you may not know that the commemoration of the enthronement celebration of my father and the emperor has invited more than 20 countries to participate, and many countries have brought princesses to make peace with the Tang Dynasty, and you have to marry a few more this time." ”

Li Zhi said: "And this matter? But sixth brother, it's up to you to pick first. ”

Li Su shook his head and said, "No, your sisters-in-law are too powerful, I have back pain, I can't stand it." You are young and strong, so you should come. ”

Du He interjected next to him and said, "Brother Yu, aren't you?" You insist on running and exercising every day, and the muscles on your body look more beautiful than mine, just a few sisters-in-law, as for it? ”

Li Dan heard Qibi Gaowa chatter, saying that Li Su promised his crown princesses that he would not marry new wives again. He understood that Li Su must be fooling Li Zhi. Therefore, he pulled Duhe with his hand underneath and motioned for him not to interject.

Sure enough, Li Su continued to fool Li Zhi, and he said, "Ninth brother, these foreign princesses are really good. Your sixth sister-in-law, Qibi Wuyun, Ashina Qing and the Persian princess Narcissus, that exotic beauty, tsk. Don't talk about it, you can marry a few exotic women. They can definitely make a difference to you. ”

Li Zhi described the wonders of those exotic women to Li Zhi, and Li Zhi longed for a while when he heard it.

Originally, Li Zhi was very envious of Li Su's beautiful exotic princesses, and after Li Su's flickering, it aroused Li Zhi's curiosity.

He said eagerly: "Okay, sixth brother, this is not a younger brother who robs you, you let me." ”

Li Su smiled: "My own brother, you're welcome." ”

Why did Li Su fool Li Zhi?

It turned out that Tang Fei came to the East Palace that day and revealed a message to him. The princesses of those countries want to make peace with the Tang Dynasty, and their targets are mainly His Royal Highness the Prince.

Li Su just promised the princess that he would not marry a wife again, if he did this, wouldn't he be slapping himself in the face?

But people came for him, and when the time came, his father Li Shimin came down with a holy decree, but Li was not stunned. Li Su was helpless, so he had to prepare in advance.

Next, he began to fool Li Ke again.

The next day, Concubine Yang's Chenghui Palace.

Li Su came to visit Concubine Xiangniang, and at the same time sent someone to call Li Ke.

Li Su said: "Big brother, I have asked my father the emperor a few days ago to restore your prince's title. My father had already agreed. ”

Since Li Ke was demoted to the king of the county, he has been in a depressed mood for a long time. Hearing the news, he was very surprised and said, "Second brother, thank you." ”

Concubine Yang was also very happy, she wiped her tears and said, "This is good, I am relieved." ”

Li Su said to Li Ke: "Big brother, there are a lot of snobs in this world, after you were demoted to the king of the county, you must have seen a lot of white eyes and suffered a lot of anger. This time, you have restored the title of prince, you must be beautiful, and show those villains who look down on people with dog's eyes to see the majesty of our brothers.

Officialdom is Vanity Fair, after Li Ke was belittled, he felt a lot about the snobbery of officialdom, and he was able to restore the title of prince, and he also had the feeling of exhalation with Yang eyebrows.

With the growth of age and the previous experience of competing for the position, Li Ke is now much more mature. He doesn't have the same strong desire to win as he used to be. He didn't speak.

Although Li Ke did not express his attitude, Li Ke saw from his eyes that his words had obviously played a role.

Li Ke then flickered: "Now that the Tang Dynasty is strong, foreign countries admire the grandeur of the Tang Dynasty very much. Among the countries that came to Datang this time, there are many who are willing to marry Datang, many countries are here with princesses, ConocoPhillips has already introduced them to me, these princesses are all beautiful as flowers, this time the eldest brother must marry a few more, envy those snobbish guys. ”
