After Yang Zhen finished speaking, he glanced at Li Yi cautiously, after all, with his understanding of this old fellow, he was afraid that he would be furious in the next moment. Therefore, he had already thought about the next words to deal with in his heart.

However, what surprised him was that Li Yi didn't show the slightest sign of getting angry! It's just that he showed a surprised expression when he first heard it, and then looked at Li Ping'an who was sitting under him thoughtfully.

And Li Ping'an has been eavesdropping on them, and he is naturally watching them at the moment. When Li Yi looked over, the eyes of the two happened to collide together, and Li Ping'an suddenly had a bad premonition.

"Peace."

Sure enough, before he could react, he heard Li Yi call him, and Li Ping'an could only answer with a bitter face.

"When you're full, go down first, right?"

Although Li Yi seemed to be asking him, Li Ping'an could hear the categorical meaning in his words. So he had no choice but to put down the chopsticks in his hand, wiped his mouth, and then obediently got up and saluted Yang Zhen.

"Grandfather Yang, I'm safe and full, let's go to Yang Hao to play first, and you and grandfather will talk slowly."

Yang Zhen nodded with a smile, he also understood what Li Yi meant, so he ordered a subordinate to lead Li Ping'an to the backyard.

After seeing them leave, Yang Zhen looked at Li Yi again and found that he was also looking at him with a serious face.

"Ahem, what's wrong?" Yang Zhen coughed dryly, touched his mustache, and asked a little uncomfortably.

Li Yi didn't answer immediately, but picked up the wine glass and took a big sip of wine, and then asked with a slightly confused look in his eyes:

"It's... What do you mean, or what the emperor means? ”

"Lao Li, this is the result of the emperor's discussion with us, not anyone's meaning. With the current situation of the Qi country, if you don't want to kill yourself, you can only go through marriage and seek an alliance. Yang Zhen frowned slightly, and said in a positive voice.

"In other words, do you and the emperor think that my body is not good? You can't fight, can you? Li Yi's voice was very calm, but those who knew him could hear that his heart was not calm at all.

Yang Zhen glanced at him complicatedly, and then asked softly, "Lao Li, we didn't mean that. On the contrary, it is precisely because you are still able to go to the battlefield and still be able to deter the enemy that we have come up with such a solution. ”

Seeing Li Yi's view, Yang Zhen then explained: "Yes, you can still lead troops to fight now, but Lao Li, you touch your chest and say, do you think you can still fight for a few years?" ”

Li Yi's face froze, and he was a little speechless. Because he himself said before, now is getting worse and worse than when he is younger, and if he continues like this, he is afraid that it will not take him five years, and he may not be able to bear such a long battle.

"If, in the few years that you are still able to deter the enemy army, our Qi State cannot annex the rest of the countries. Then have you ever thought about what will happen to Qi Guo at that time? Have you ever thought about the way back for Qi Guo? Yang Zhen asked with a serious face.

"This..."

Li Yi was dumbfounded, he wanted to be able to confidently shout that he could do it, and he could take down those juniors in his mouth in the past few years.

But he knew it was unrealistic, and saying it was just a joke. In today's Qi country, it is not easy to protect itself, let alone send troops to attack. If it weren't for the danger of natural mountains and rivers that are extremely difficult to cross and easy to defend and attack, the Qi State would have fallen apart under the siege of the four countries.

Even now, it seems that he is difficult to meet opponents outside, but after every victory, he is not even qualified to pursue. First, there is a shortage of grain and grass, which is not enough to support long-term operations. The second is that there may be war in other territories at any time, and he does not dare to chase the enemy too deeply, in case the army is too late to help, or he will fall into the ambush of other countries, and one mistake will turn into a thousand hatreds. This is the pain of fighting alone! Although he looks like a beautiful and glamorous one, he is known as what a victorious general! But the pain and helplessness behind it are only known to him.

"Tell me, who do you want to marry?"

After being silent for a long time, Li Yi finally asked again. He lowered his head, Yang Zhen couldn't see his expression clearly, and he didn't know what he was really thinking in his heart at the moment.

Yang Zhen smiled bitterly, to be honest, he was really a little unbearable Li Yi in this state. If it weren't for the fact that he had the best relationship with Li Yi, and Emperor Qi had designated him to do this, he really didn't want to take this errand.

......

And at this time, the backyard of the Yang family

Li Ping'an was walking aimlessly in the path of the back garden, because after the next person brought him here, he went to inform Yang Hao and asked him to wait here.

But... Li Ping'an smiled bitterly, if he didn't want to get something about his father and grandfather from Yang Hao's mouth on weekdays, who would want to play with a six- or seven-year-old child? He wanted to go back and hear what those two old men were talking about now, okay?

Although outsiders are envious when they mention him, because he was born in the Great General's Mansion of Qi State, he has received the best treatment since he was born. Not only has a Changsheng general who is admired by thousands of people in the Qi Kingdom as his grandfather, but also has a father who is quite accomplished in Wendao and was unprecedentedly named Zheng Guogong at the age of thirty. Under such unique conditions, his Li Ping'an's future is destined not to be too ordinary, and I don't know how many people are looking forward to him being able to replace his father and grandfather in the future and become the pillar of the new generation of Qi State.

However, Li Ping'an understood in his heart that it was precisely because of this that the Li family's situation at the moment was even more like walking on thin ice.

Although his grandfather Li Yi was in a high position, he didn't know how to change it at all. Although his father Li Shiming is proficient in literature and Taoism, he does not understand human feelings at all. It's not that they are so bad, it's just that Li Ping'an is from modern times, and he knows the history of 5,000 years, and he knows that there are too many deceitful people in this kind of officialdom. Don't look at their Li family today, it is very prosperous, but the danger of officialdom is not weaker than the battlefield, as long as someone secretly stumbles and deliberately targets the frame, the destruction of the high-rise building is only an instant.

"Alas~" Li Ping'an sighed, but who made him just a six-year-old kid at the moment? Naturally, the adults wouldn't talk to him about this kind of thing, and he had to go to great lengths to know something, but he was really worried.

But Li Ping'an naturally didn't know that his image of making such an action at this moment would make people laugh even more.

"Poof!"

A laugh suddenly came, Li Ping'an was stunned, and then looked for prestige.

It turned out that he had unconsciously walked to the center of the Yang family's back garden, next to the Yangxin Lake. And the owner of the laughter was a young girl sitting in a pavilion in the middle of the lake.

The girl looked to be about twelve or thirteen years old, with bright eyes and bright teeth, and a clever smile. Li Ping'an had seen her a few times before, she was Yang Hao's half-sister Yang Yanyu. Although she is still very young, Li Ping'an can see from her still immature silhouette that she will be a beautiful embryo that will captivate the country and the city in the future.

Yang Yanyu saw the young man looking at him blankly, and suddenly laughed even harder, and had to gently cover his cherry-like red lips with his sleeves.

"What are you laughing at?"

Although Li Ping'an admired her beauty, he still couldn't help but be a little annoyed, after all, the girl obviously looked like she was laughing at him.

"Hee-hee, you kid, that's funny. This is my house, I laugh when I want to laugh, why do you care about me? Yang Yanyu said this, but the laughter never stopped.

She was still in a very bad mood today, but I don't know why, she was not so sad to be so troubled by this cute child.

Li Ping'an was speechless, this girl was sharp-toothed.

The two of them are also funny, one thinks that the other party is a six or seven-year-old child, and the other thinks that the other party is a twelve or thirteen-year-old girl, and each thinks that the other is a child.

"Hey, come here."

Seeing that Li Ping'an stopped talking, Yang Yanyu felt bored, but he didn't laugh anymore. Instead, he waved at him and motioned for him to come over.

Li Ping'an didn't refuse, since they all came to this Heart Cultivation Lake, they simply went to the Heart Cultivation Pavilion to sit and look at the scenery.

"I said, you should be the guest from the mansion today, Li Ping'an, the grandson of the hussar general, right?"

As soon as he walked into the pavilion, he heard Yang Yanyu ask.

At the same time, she looked at Li Ping'an with a very serious look, and she didn't know what she was looking at, anyway, Li Ping'an was uncomfortable by her.

"I know you're still asking." Li Ping'an couldn't help but roll his eyes, in fact, he almost blurted out that you can't remember me, and then he suddenly remembered that the last time he saw her, he was just a two or three-year-old child, and it was too normal for people not to remember.

"Hey, you're a kid with a good temper." Yang Yanyu's eyes widened.

"I'm not a child, my name is Li Ping'an!" Li Ping'an glared at her dissatisfied.

"Haha, you still say that you are not a child, you are clearly a child's temper~ Obviously a six-year-old child, what kind of adult are you pretending? You don't know, the way you sighed just now is too funny! Hee-hee, but your skin is really good! Children are good, white and tender, come over and let my sister pinch them. Yang Yanyu seemed to have suddenly turned on the switch to speak, and his mouth was like talking non-stop.

Then, when Li Ping'an's eyes widened and he didn't react, he stretched out his hands and pinched his tender little face, rubbing it back and forth.

The touch of the girl's cold little hands and the faint fragrance of flowers on her body suddenly poured into Li Ping'an's mind, causing him to even forget to resist for the first time.

Fortunately, he reacted quickly and quickly took two steps back, which was out of her "clutches".

"Hey! What are you doing? Li Ping'an was very angry, at least he felt that he should be very angry.

"Hee-hee, what's the matter, isn't it just rubbing your cheeks? Why are you so stingy, little kid? Yang Yanyu looked unfinished and said dissatisfied.

Li Ping'an's eyes widened suddenly, you just rub my face without my consent, you still call me stingy? You're still unreasonable, woman?

"Besides, what does it matter if I rub my future husband's face?"

"What ??!"
