Tai Chi Palace.

Tonight's palace banquet, Li Zhi and Empress Wu attach great importance to it.

The glory of the Quartet is also a matter that must be treated ceremoniously for the suzerain, which is related to the image of the Tang Dynasty, the more the suzerain, the more he cares about face.

After Li Zhi issued the holy decree of holding a palace banquet, Empress Wu was busy turning the sky upside down.

As the queen in charge of the palace, she must do everything herself for such an important palace banquet, and every detail must be asked.

It wasn't until the afternoon that Empress Wu finally finished her work and returned to Anren Hall with a tired face.

Li Zhi was also in the Anren Palace, listening to the eunuch's performance calmly.

"Because I have to accompany my son to fish, I don't have time to participate in the palace banquet?" The corners of Li Zhi's mouth twitched, and he muttered, "If it's really Jing Chu's style, if you think about it carefully, he's really such a person."

Empress Wu, who had just returned to Anren Palace, also heard the eunuch's words, she quickly glanced at Li Zhi's expression, and saw that he did not show an angry appearance, Empress Wu suddenly counted, so she said with a smile: "Jing Chu's indifferent heart is not pretended, Your Majesty can't blame him."

Li Zhi smiled, "My strength is not so small, and he is to blame for this."

Immediately, Li Zhi sighed leisurely and said, "It's just that those envoys of the Tubo Kingdom are afraid that they will be disappointed tonight."

Empress Wu's eyes flashed: "Why are they disappointed?"

Li Zhi said with a smile: "The Honglu Temple Qing paid tribute to me, and after the envoys of the various countries entered Beijing, and the envoys of the Tubo and the Japanese State presented tribute, the first thing was to ask for an interview with Li Qinzai, the prince of Weinan County."

Empress Wu was slightly surprised: "Why?"

"Let's not talk about the Wa Kingdom, Li Qinzai has an enmity with them to destroy the country, and now the Tang Dynasty has nearly 10,000 troops stationed in the Wa Kingdom, and even the palace guards of their lord are taken over by our Datang soldiers, all of which are due to Jing Chu."

Li Zhi said, with a puzzled look in his eyes: "But what makes me strange is that Jing Chu obviously has an enmity against the Japanese State to destroy the country......

"But the officials of the Honglu Temple told me that when the envoys of the Japanese Kingdom mentioned Jing Chu, their expressions were extremely deferential, and even a little worshipful, and there was no trace of hatred at all.

Empress Wu blinked, but she didn't understand why the envoys of the Wa Kingdom behaved like this.

After hesitating for a while, Empress Wu said in a low voice, "Mo is not pretending? Because the Tang Dynasty has completely controlled the Wa Kingdom, they dare not speak out in anger, so they can only pretend to be submissive......

"Your Majesty, don't you hear that Goujian, the king of Yue in the Spring and Autumn Period, when his family and country were mourned, was extremely deferential to Wu Wangfucha, and even did not hesitate to humble himself, and even tasted dung and asked questions.

Li Zhi laughed: "The metaphor of the queen is really ......."

Immediately, Li Zhi's smile gradually faded, and he said, "However, the obedience of the envoys of the Japanese Kingdom should indeed be vigilant, I am worried that their obedience is just pretended, if I see Jing Chu, he will lose his guard and take the opportunity to assassinate him......

Empress Wu nodded: "Your Majesty's worries are not unreasonable, and you should send palace people to Ganjingzhuang to remind Jing Chu."

"Your Majesty, the Tibetan envoys also want to meet Jing Chu, somehow?"

Li Zhi smiled again: "At the beginning of the Tuyuhun battle, Jing Chu made their great minister Lu Dongzan suffer a big loss, and almost became a prisoner of our Tang Dynasty, this time the Tubo envoy wanted to see Jing Chu, and it is estimated that he was ordered by Lu Dongzan, maybe there is something to say to Jing Chu."

Saying that, Li Zhi smiled and sighed: "It's obviously a palace banquet organized by me, but for some reason, the protagonist has become Jing Chu, and the envoys from all over the world are revolving around him, and Jing Chu can't be present at the palace banquet tonight, I'm afraid it will be very disappointing."

Empress Wu suddenly became serious, bowed to Li Zhiyingying, and said: "The concubine is happy for Your Majesty, Your Majesty has not yet made a move, just a courtier of the Tang Dynasty, she has deeply shocked the countries of the Quartet, and it is a blessing for the Tang Dynasty and Your Majesty."

Li Zhi's eyes narrowed, and he said with a smile: "Queen, you have been getting better and better at talking lately......

…………

Ganjingzhuang.

Today's fishing harvest of father and son...... In a word

It's hard to finish.

When they went, they were full of ambition, and the father and son held their heads high, saying that they would bake one after fishing, and they would eat all-you-can-eat like a buffet.

When he arrived at the Wei River, Li Qinzai smashed a pit on the ice, set up a fishing rod, and buckwheat was busy moving stones, setting up a simple barbecue grill, and even burning dry firewood and charcoal, waiting for the fish to be hooked and killed.

However, the reality is not just skinny, it is simply a skeleton.

The father and son waited for more than an hour, but still did not wait for the fish to bite the hook.

This is embarrassing, especially in front of his son, Li Qinjae feels that his father's dignity has been challenged.

In the eyes of the son, the father must be omnipotent, he should be a superman, he should be a god.

If you can't even catch a fish, how will you mix it in the future?

Two hours later, the fish basket was still empty, and the eyes of Buck Er who looked at him began to question a little, and Li Qinzai couldn't calm down.

"Go, go home and get the cannon you secretly hiding, don't tell me you didn't hide, I'm too lazy to debunk you." Li Qinzai ordered.

Buckwheat looked stunned, got up and ran to the other courtyard.

Li Qinzai added a few words loudly in the back, asking him to bring some oil paper and lead by the way.

It didn't take long for Buckwheat to run back again, panting in his arms, and took out a lot of cannonballs, Li Qinzai couldn't help but be shocked, knowing that this product must have hidden a lot of gunfire, but he didn't expect to hide so much, it was a walking powder magazine.

"You ......," Li Qinzai couldn't help but say, "You don't want to be a Nobel Prize when you grow up, do you?"

Buckwheat said puzzledly, "Dad, what is Nobel?"

"A guy who likes to play with explosives......" Li Qinzai was a little worried, but he couldn't directly say to the child that you can't do this, you can't do that, it is easy to arouse his rebellious mentality, and he will not be allowed to do it.

Gather the cannonballs that buckwheat had secretly hidden, pick out five or six, tie them with fishing lines, and then extend their leads, and finally wrap the cannonballs with oiled paper, so that only the leads are exposed.

Holding this super cannon, Li Qinzai couldn't help but feel a little worried.

When you come to the ice hole in the river, you put the cannon into the water, carefully not letting the lead touch the water, and extend the elongated lead all the way to the shore.

In the end, Li Qinzai lit the lead, and when the lead made a snorting sound, Li Qinzai turned around and led the buckwheat and ran wildly into the distance.

Buckwheat was not afraid at all, but showed excitement, and ran very happily, like a pastoral dog chasing rabbits in the field.

There was a sudden loud bang behind him, and the artillery exploded, stirring up a column of water more than a foot high.

The surrounding land seemed to shake a few times at that moment.

Buck'er looked at Li Qinzai in disbelief and stammered, "Dad, okay...... It's amazing!"

"You can still play like this, kid!"
