As Li Tao grew older, he gradually disliked interfering in family affairs, including children's affairs, and he didn't even bother to ask about the government and military.

He is a retired old man, who plays with flowers and plants every day, and slowly walks towards the end of his life with a leisurely and calm attitude.

A glorious life, famous and famous all over the world, under the leadership of the young emperor, although occasionally stumbling, but also running forward with full energy, the people are not harmed by the officials, and the officials are not harmed by the faint king.

What more could Li Xiangfu ask for? I'm a lot older.,It's still like an old man who doesn't cultivate.,How annoying.。

But Li Qinzai's matter still attracted Li Tao's attention after all.

This unconscious grandson will never be able to settle down, the last time he advised Feng Zen to settle the matter, this time he broke out with the county lord of Jinxiang.

"Rhyme" is a derogatory term that represents a chaotic relationship between men and women, an improper family style, and a lack of conduct.

Now that the matter of Li Qinzai and the county lord of Jinxiang has spread all over Chang'an City, how ugly it is said in the market, of course Li Tao knows very well.

It is said that many imperial histories in the DPRK and China are ready to move, and the impeachment is afraid that it has already been written, so it is waiting to be handed over to Shangshu Province.

Under the crowd, there is another endless war of words, and if someone fanned the flames, the war of words will slowly turn into a catastrophe.

It is never possible to have no enemies in the court, and over the years, I don't know how many pairs of eyes have stared coldly at the British government in the dark, just waiting to take the handle of the Li family, and then completely bring down the Li family.

So although Li Tao didn't want to take care of his children and grandchildren, it was a matter of family business, and Li Tao had to make a little move.

"Father, Qin Zai has caused this trouble again, it seems that the trouble is getting bigger and bigger, shouldn't we intervene?" Li Siwen asked cautiously.

Li Tao snorted and said, "I heard that this matter has been in front of the Son of Heaven and the Queen, do you know what the attitude of the Son of Heaven is?"

Li Siwen showed a strange look and said, "The Son of Heaven didn't say anything, after all, this is not a glorious thing, but the Son of Heaven gave Yu Yin, the only son of the Yu family, an edict to demote him to an official position, and urged him to leave Beijing to take up his post, Yu Yin didn't dare to delay, and left Chang'an City in a hurry this afternoon."

"Father, what is certain is that with the will of the Son of Heaven, the Yu family should give up the idea of marrying King Teng's mansion."

A smile flashed in Li Tao's eyes, and he said, "The Son of Heaven is partial, but Qin Zai is lucky......

Li Siwen said in a deep voice: "However, it is inevitable to give people a handle and provoke criticism from the courtiers, although Qin Zai is my son, but ...... The child still thinks that the Son of Heaven is not right."

Li Tao shook his head: "There is nothing wrong with it, the world is not fair, the Son of Heaven naturally has a difference between intimacy and alienation in his heart, and Qin Zai is also angry, compared to the mediocrity of the family, Qin Zai has also made several contributions to the society, and he is very compatible with the Son of Heaven in private." In public and private, it is normal for the Son of Heaven to favor admiration."

After pondering for a long time, Li Tao said slowly: "The old man is a military general, and it is not appropriate to have a close relationship with the vassal king, but he recommends talents for the country, does not avoid relatives and hatred, but he doesn't have to care so much."

Li Siwen said puzzledly: "What does my father mean ......?"

Li Tao said with a smile: "The old man has not asked about the affairs of the court for a long time, but the few sweet potato grain seeds that Qin Zai got are said to be of great use to the country, and in two months, the sweet potatoes will be about to mature, and then Guanzhong will slowly keep the seeds and popularize them, benefiting the world."

"This is a great event that has been passed down through the ages, and it is impossible for the Son of Heaven to do it himself, and it is impossible for other courtiers to do it, so it is inevitable that any foreign minister will commit a taboo and be suspected of winning the hearts of the people."

"Only King Teng, who is the imperial uncle of the Son of Heaven, is both a clan relative and a hopeless heir, both capable and without military power. It's the right time to give Qin Zai a start, share the worries of the Son of Heaven, and promote the sweet potato grain seeds."

"You and I, father and son, might as well jointly give a note to the Son of Heaven, and promote King Teng as the Si Nong, full-time to promote sweet potato grain varieties, and work with Qin Zai to popularize sweet potatoes in the world."

Li Siwen was taken aback: "Father is planning to let Qin Zai work with King Teng?"

Li Tao said leisurely: "The old man heard Qin Zai say that King Teng supervised the state road administration and returned successfully

After Beijing, he had been idle at home, and Qin Zai said that although King Teng was the lord of the vassal kings, he was also afraid of being hated by the Son of Heaven, and he was even more afraid that the Son of Heaven would ignore him and exclude him from the court."

Li Siwen understood, and said with a smile: "The father and the child jointly promoted King Teng, which can be regarded as our Li family's show of goodwill to him, which not only relieved King Teng's worries, but also showed the Li family's mind and sincerity."

Li Tao smiled and said: "With Qin Zai's mouth, if he works with King Teng for a long time, it will shake King Teng's mind a little, and he doesn't expect him to marry the county lord of Jinxiang to Qin Zai, at least turn a blind eye to their affairs, and the next matter, the old man believes that Qin Zai will solve it perfectly."

Li Siwen said with a smile: "The father is clever and calculating, and the child admires him."

Li Tao smiled suddenly, glanced at him, and said, "In the future, you can't discuss court affairs at home, let alone the rights and wrongs of the royal family."

Li Siwen was stunned: "Why?"

"No, because that's what you said."

…………

Li Tao, who has not asked about political affairs for a long time, and Li Siwen, who served as a waiter in the ministry, the father and son actually jointly named and recommended King Teng as Si Nong.

Shangshu Province did not dare to slack off after receiving the recital of Li Tao and his son, and the right minister Xu Jingzong immediately read the recital carefully several times, and every word in it was carefully touched for a long time, and then handed the recital into the Taiji Palace.

In the Taiji Palace, after Li Zhi saw Li Tao's recital, like Xu Jingzong, he watched it seriously several times, and finally laughed.

recommended King Teng as Si Nong, Jiang is worthy of being old and spicy, and Li Tao can figure it out.

The official position is very delicate, and Li Tao just grasped this delicate point.

Of course, it is not appropriate for the vassal king to participate in the military, let alone win the hearts of the people, which is a very taboo thing.

However, the position of Si Nong is specialized in agricultural cultivation, and in terms of promoting sweet potato grain varieties, King Teng is not the first official, Li Qinzai is, and there is no opportunity for the vassal king to win the hearts of the people.

I have to say that this recommendation is both appropriate and timely.

Of course, Li Zhi knew very well why Li Tao and his son wanted to go to this trick and promote sweet potatoes, the court had already made arrangements, and the position of Si Nong was actually dispensable, but it was too suitable to let King Teng serve this dispensable official position.

Why did Li Tao go to this recital?

What else, of course, is for the sake of Li Qinzai and Jin Xiang, this song is to break the ice between the two families, appease King Teng's heart, and create an opportunity for communication between the two who have a deeper and deeper grudge.

Regarding the matter of Li Qinzai and Jinxiang, Li Zhi was already partial, and now that Li Zhi took the initiative to send the opportunity, how could Li Zhi not agree?

So Li Zhi waved his hand and played accurately.

Teng Wangfu.

As soon as King Teng got up early in the morning, the palace ushered in the angel who announced the decree.

After frustrating a lot of nonsense that he couldn't understand, the angel changed his words and announced Li Zhi's decree.

With King Teng as Si Nong, he was in charge of the popularization of sweet potatoes, assisted Hou Li Qinzai of Weinan County, and promoted sweet potatoes to the entire Guanzhong within three years.
