In order to celebrate the smooth progress of the war, the commander Li Dadu will reward the troops, and the soldiers of each battalion will have a meal, and the brave soldiers in battle will be rewarded, and they will be given after returning.

Li Tai did not make a noise about his own private affairs, but only set up a banquet in the big tent to wash the dust of his father who had just returned and entertained the Xiangyang envoys who saw him off here.

The generals in the banquet naturally knew such good news, and they were all very curious about what kind of person had cultivated such an outstanding disciple of Governor Li, so they vied with each other to toast at the banquet, and the burning eyes made Li Xiao's heart a little hairy.

Putting aside the discomfort caused by the excessive enthusiasm of the masses, Li Xiao also noticed their heartfelt respectful obedience to their son. Seeing that his son was so prestigious in the eyes of his subordinates, Li Xiao also felt deeply honored.

When he saw his son's decent and comfortable response to the crowd's compliments, Li Xiao felt even more emotional, and he was proud but couldn't help but feel regretful.

His son is already thriving, which naturally makes him feel very pleased. But because the change is too big, it also makes him feel quite unfamiliar. The father and son were separated for several years because of the war, and it is natural to be happy to be reunited, but he missed the process of his son's growth and change.

Although Li Xiao was born in the Li family of Longxi, he was not familiar with the occasion of officialdom communication. If it weren't for Gao Zhongmi's bad friend, I am afraid that he would still be living in seclusion in Qinghe Township.

Now that he is reunited with his relatives, compared to these scenes, Li Xiao hopes to sit down with his son and have a deep talk, and tell all kinds of things. But seeing that the crowd in the tent was enthusiastic, and his son was also in high spirits, he didn't want to sweep away the interest of the crowd, so he sat down in the banquet and drank slowly.

A banquet was going on late at night, and although Li Xiao didn't drink heavily, he was unconsciously drunk.

When Li Tai saw that Aya was no longer able to sit firmly in the middle of the banquet, he raised his hand to stop the banquet, and the crowd dispersed, while he himself personally helped his father, who was already drunk, to rest in another tent.

During the previous banquet, he could see that his father was a little unable to fit in, and he frequently expressed the intention of talking to him, but Li Taihanhu did not give a positive response.

He is not the real Li Tai after all, and he is inevitably a little thief in the face of his father's scrutiny, although he can cover up the past with his acting skills, after all, his father and son have been separated for several years, and he is in the adolescence that has changed the most, so he will always be a little alienated.

But with his acting skills to reveal his true feelings to people, he will inevitably be a little guilty and subconsciously avoid face-to-face contact. It may be a while before father and son become intimate and comfortable with each other.

After entering the other tent, Li Xiao tried to shake his head to make himself sober, and he still complained in his mouth: "Why are you greedy and drunk!" I have much more to say to my son...... Ah Pan, Ah Pan, you wait a while, you will wake up soon, I am afraid, I am afraid that I will wake up tomorrow but it will be a dream!"

When Li Tai heard this, his heart was sour, and he patted the back of his father's hand to reassure him a little: "Aye, don't worry, this is not a dream. I'll keep watch here, and I'm not going anywhere."

As he spoke, he instructed his soldiers to prepare buttermilk tea and bring it here, while he sat on the side of the couch, guarding his father, who tossed and turned and refused to sleep.

"Ah, Ah Pan, are you still there? After learning your news, Aya was very upset, and she liked that my son was strong and self-reliant, and that she was better than her father, but she was afraid to see you...... You are ashamed to see my son, and if it had not been for my mistake and trouble, my son would not have to suffer a lot. Although my son has overcome all odds and fought bravely, it is heartbreaking to think of the hardships that my son has endured!"

The drunken person is already very emotional, and Li Xiao feels guilty about his son, so he can't help but confide in him after the reunion, and he is full of self-reproach and said: "In just a few years, Ah Pan has stood strong in Kansai, and his endowment and talent are a hundred times better than yours!

Annoying, hateful, you were born in this household, you are cowardly, because of the disaster of Heyin, you dare not go to the world. If your father is brave and enterprising, even if he relies on his seniority to gradually advance for my son, he does not need to live in Kansai, he can be stronger than Kanto! There is a young lin, and the danger is mistaken by the mediocre father......

Hear this from my father

After a sound of self-blame, Li Tai couldn't cry or laugh for a while.

He is prosperous in Kansai, but it doesn't mean that he can do it in Kanto. Jinyang Xungui and Hebei Haoqiang have basically carved up the military resources of the Eastern Wei Dynasty, even if he is lucky enough to be appreciated by the Gao brothers, it is great to get the status of Yang Su, there is not enough armed force in his hands, and in the end, I am afraid that he will inevitably be beaten out of the fate of his eyes.

Duan Shao and Hu Luguang are not broad-minded good men and women, as the second-generation backbone of Jinyang Xungui, whoever wants to put their hands into their field to do any rights and interests redistribution, it will also instantly turn into a little wolf dog that protects food, and there is no scum left to bite people.

Regarding his Lao Tzu's mentality, Li Tai can also understand it a little. No matter who has such an outstanding son as himself, he will inevitably feel pressure, and it is also thanks to his family that there is no throne to inherit now, otherwise he will have to be like Li Longji, thinking about how to cut him as a prince every day.

Li Xiao tossed for a while before falling asleep, and Li Tai heard the sound of even breathing, so he stood up and tiptoed out of the tent.

He himself didn't know how to face his father, and it seemed that he was a little awkward when he faced him. The father and son have been separated for several years, and he seems to have become the head of the young and strong army of the Guanxi Tyrant, but his Lao Tzu has achieved nothing, and even reduced to being used as a hostage bargaining chip, which is undoubtedly a bit wasteful. The better the son, the more he reflects his incompetence, and it obviously takes some time to accept this fact.

But in any case, the reunion of father and son is always a great event. At present, he is still in the enemy territory, in order to avoid being happy and sad, Li Tai has set up his spirit to patrol the camp again, and after making sure that there is nothing abnormal, he will return to the tent to rest.

Early the next morning, Li Tai got up and went to visit his father, and Li Xiao also got up early, and his expression was still a little shy when he saw his son, although he didn't remember last night's drunken chatter, but some feelings and emotions in his heart were difficult to let go of for a short time.

"There are still some things to end in the war here, and there are many inconveniences in the camp, I want to arrange for other troops to escort Aye back to the city first, what does Aya want?"

When the father and son had breakfast together, Li Tai took the opportunity to ask for instructions.

When Li Xiao heard this, he said, "You don't have to think about me. Although your father is old and immortal, there is no need to disturb the younger generations in everything, and it is okay to go by himself."

Listening to this tone, there is still a little bit stronger, Li Tai can't help but be happy, of course he can't let Aya go by himself, it's hard to find someone, there can't be another dad Where are you going in the second season, or arrange people to escort him. After all, the war has been going on almost now, and it is about to be withdrawn in batches.

He first arranged for Li Quji, Gao Le, and a part of Jingzhou's Haoqiang troops to escort Li Xiao from the camp to the north, and then turned back to deal with the rest of the affairs.

This Yueyang King Xiao Jing is also very eye-catching, and the people and goods sent with him are worth a lot of money, which is enough to reflect the importance of their father and son, and it is not in vain Li Tai's previous statement.

In Li Xiao's opinion, this is a batch of heavy gifts, but for a feudal official like Li Tai, it is just a small expression of friendliness, and he accepts it with a smile without any psychological obstacles. As for who wants to impeach and report him on this basis, as everyone knows, Li Dadu has never been known for his integrity.

Winning gifts from others is, of course, reciprocating with peach. Li Tai transferred the ransom money sent by Du You'an and Jingzhao Du, who had surrendered before, to Xiao Jing, and as for whether Xiao Jing killed or killed him, he naturally ignored it.

If it had been before, Li Tai might have been worried that if he did this, it might affect the Xiangyang clan's impression of him, and he was afraid that he would not surrender easily when he was hostile in the future. But it turned out that this was really too much, and these powerful clans in the Southern Dynasty were really addicted, and he didn't have time to accept those who surrendered.

However, when sending Du Youan back, Li Tai attached another condition, that is, he hoped that Xiao Jing could send Liu Fanggui's family here. exchanging a member of the Jingzhao Du clan for a rebel general's family scroll is not a loss for Xiao Jing.

As for the nearly 10,000 soldiers and civilians in Fancheng, they were originally Li Tai's spoils, and he didn't plan to use them as a trade, and was going to bring them all back to Jingzhou. This is also one of the reasons why he wants to exchange for Liu Fanggui's family scroll and appease his people, if there is no control from this familiar commander, these soldiers and civilians will have to flee on the way

Scattered more than half.

Although Xiao Jing wanted to discuss further, even if it was at some cost to leave some of the soldiers and civilians of Fancheng behind, after all, population was precious to any party.

But Li Tai didn't want to mention this stubble at all, and Xiao Jing didn't dare to fight on it, for fear that his rhetoric would be too fierce and anger Li Tai and destroy the friendly atmosphere that the two sides had built up with great difficulty.

I have to say that it was a very good experience to deal with these Southern Koreans. They are not as stubborn and impoverished as those townspeople in the north, they will carefully take care of each other's mood, maintain the atmosphere of dialogue, and try to meet each other's obviously excessive demands.

However, not all of their requests were willing to agree, and before the withdrawal, Li Tai tentatively proposed to meet with King Yueyang and have a conversation with each other to discuss a larger scope of cooperation, but he was rejected.

He was also a little helpless in this regard, so he could only temporarily withdraw his troops and return to the town, and then send envoys to contact and continue to deepen the relationship. After all, putting aside the possible exchanges and cooperation between regions, this Yueyang King Xiao Jing still has a big expansion for the next version, if he can build a good relationship in advance, he will not lose.

But now the other party refused to come to see him, so he could only go back to Jingzhou first to deal with internal problems.
