Li Qinzai is a traverser, he has received an equal education since he was a child, and his attitude towards imperial power is neither worshipful nor resistant.

He only made a superficial etiquette that met the expectations of society, but in fact he was not very afraid of imperial power.

This kind of character can't be said to be bad, depending on how the eight characters of the birth date are, reincarnated well, cast into a prosperous era of monarchs and saints and sages, he can live like a fish in water, even if there is a little offense to Meng Lang, the saint monarch will not care about him.

If he was born in the era of tyrant rule, Li Qinzai would have lived for about three chapters, and he would have finished sprinkling flowers in three chapters.

Fortunately, Li Qinzai was reincarnated well, and he was reincarnated under the rule of one of the most benevolent and gentle emperors in the Tang Dynasty.

The beef was stewed badly and the heat was just right. Li Qinzai personally cooked, added some spices, simmered slowly over low heat for two hours, the soup was as thick as mush, sipping lightly, the strong aroma of meat and juice were silky to the end, and the internal organs were so comfortable that they wanted to moan.

Zi said: "Chromophobia", men will also moan when they encounter delicious food.

Li Zhi's whole face was glowing, and he ate the beef one bite after another, humming while chewing in his mouth.

Li Qinzai didn't move his chopsticks much, he smiled and watched Li Zhi feasting, and for some reason there was a breeder's pleasure in his heart.

"Delicious, delicious! Jing Chu's craftsmanship is wonderful, if you are mediocre in other aspects, I want to summon you to the Taiji Palace and be my imperial chef for a lifetime. Li Zhi praised without raising his head.

Li Qinzai said with a smile: "The minister is a foreign minister, it is really inconvenient to enter the palace on an errand, with the benevolence and righteousness of His Majesty, it is impossible to let the minister cleanse, right?" ”

Li Zhi sighed: "I don't know which dynasty set this rule, the palace people have to be pure before they can be errands, according to my meaning, as long as there is talent, what does it matter if you are not pure, just be able to do things for me." ”

Li Qinzai looked up and rolled his eyes speechlessly.

The heart is really big, and I'm really not afraid of being planted with a Hulunbuir grassland on my head.

Why do eunuchs have to be purified to enter the palace on errands, don't you have a little bit in your heart?

You alone have chickens in the entire palace, so that the palace can be safe.

Thousands of mountains and birds flew away, and thousands of stems disappeared.

That's what a palace should look like.

Li Qinzai raised his eyes and saw that Cui Sheng was struggling to write, so he hurriedly said: "Uncle, don't write in that sentence just now. ”

Cui Sheng glanced at him coldly, still writing something, and he didn't know if Li Zhi's bastard sentence was written down by him.

I was going to mention to Li Zhi about borrowing the Baiqi Division to investigate his cousin's wrongful imprisonment, but at this time, Cui Sheng was present, and this thing has never been against him, so Li Qinzai decided not to mention it for the time being.

If this matter is written into the emperor's living record, Li Zhi and he will be scolded very badly, and the kind that scolds for thousands of years.

The monarchs drank wine and ate meat, and chatted some gossip.

Finally, Li Qinzai couldn't help but point at Cui Sheng and said, "Your Majesty, let's have a small gathering of monarchs and ministers, there's no need to let the Zhongshu people record it, right?" ”

Li Zhi was stunned for a moment, then slapped his thigh, and said in annoyance: "It's all because your beef is too delicious, I forgot about business." ”

"What's the matter?"

Li Zhi coughed uncomfortably and said, "I heard that you went back to Chang'an, and I was going to summon you, but I didn't expect you to take the initiative to enter the palace to meet you, that's just right, today I want to play against Jing Chu." ”

Li Qinzai was taken aback: "What's right?" ”

Li Zhi took a chopstick of beef and put it in his mouth, and inadvertently caught a glimpse of Cui Sheng, and immediately thought that his demeanor was a little frivolous at this moment, so he sat up straight suddenly, his expression was serious, and only one mouth was left squirming.

Li Qinzai had no choice but to sit upright, the monarch and the minister sat upright at the moment, with a solemn face, even if this scene was in the painting, it would teach the descendants of thousands of years later to find no fault.

"At the beginning of the Jingchu, something happened to the west of the Tang Dynasty." Li Zhi said in a deep voice.

Li Qinzai blinked, and his brain didn't react for a while. He was still thinking about how to open his mouth to tell Li Zhi about his cousin, but Li Zhi brought the topic to the west of the Tang Dynasty.

"Your Majesty is referring to...... The countries of the Western Regions? Li Qinzai hesitated.

Li Zhi shook his head and said: "A few days ago, the Anxi Protectorate rode into Beijing for 800 miles, reporting that Tubo had invaded the east, and there were signs of frequent movements of the border army. ”

Li Qinzai was silent for a long time and remained silent.

Li Zhi stared at Li Qinzai, even if you can't get valuable advice, at least you should be a qualified person, such as asking knowingly, why did Tubo commit something in the east.

Otherwise, the conversation will die on this day.

Li Qinzai really didn't plan to speak, his mind was a mess, and he was still silently drawing a map in his mind at this time.

Tubo is the Tibet of later generations, so Tuyuhun is probably Qinghai, Gansu and Xinjiang...... Right?

If the Tibetan people charge from the plateau to the plain, will they blow up their lungs because the oxygen concentration in the air is too high?

Even if you don't blow up your lungs, you should be suffering from heat stroke from the cold plateau to the hot desert basin, right?

Full of unrealistic thoughts, Li Qinzai's expression was half-dreamy and half-awake, very ethereal.

Li Zhi finally couldn't help but call: "Jing Chu, Jing Chu!" If you don't reply, I'm going to call the doctor. ”

Li Qinzai returned to his soul and said strangely: "Your Majesty, why did Tubo commit Tuyuhun in the east for no reason? ”

Li Zhi sighed: "Military affairs, how can you say that 'for no reason'? During the Zhenguan period, Songtsen Gampo married Princess Wencheng, and the Tang Dynasty and Tubo have been friends for decades, but how can the relationship between the two countries be decided by one or two marriages? When it's time to do it, you will still do it. ”

"The bitter cold land of the plateau is not suitable for the Tubo people to live, so they must expand the territory, so that the Tubo people go down from the plateau to the plain, after decades of peace, the Tubo still decided to invade the east, the former Japanese army report came, I was also surprised, I didn't expect that the Tubo wanted to invade was the Tuyuhun ......"

Li Qinzai pondered for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, has the news reached the court?" What did the courtiers say? ”

Li Zhi smiled bitterly: "How can such a major news be hidden?" The news had already spread throughout the court, and the courtiers had been arguing for many days, but there was still no conclusion. Some said that they ignored it, and some said that they had to help Tuyuhun defeat the Tubo people, and I had a headache from them in the past few days, and my old problems were about to recur. ”

"Those who say ignore it and those who say that they send troops have their own reasons, and I don't know which side to listen to......" Li Zhi said and sighed again.

Li Qinzai thought for a while and said: "Whether or not to send troops depends on His Majesty's Holy Judgment, but the minister wants to ask, if we send troops, can our Datang's treasury support this big war?" ”

Li Zhi's expression became more and more bitter, and he said: "Last year, Baekje conquered Baekje, and Baekje destroyed the country, but the treasury was also empty. This year's severe drought in the north has reported a bleak harvest in various prefectures and counties, not to mention a big war to support it, and the grain transfer from the south to the north to help the refugees is overstretched. ”

Li Qinzai also sighed and said, "In this way, we can't afford to fight this big war." ”
