"Not bad~ Hongji, what else have you learned in addition to learning martial arts?"

Li Hongji took a breath back, then straightened his waist, put one hand behind his back and said: "I haven't learned much, I just said it, I just understand the value of a penny, and how to be a person." But that's enough for me now. ”

"Enough, really enough......" Li Jing was so moved that she almost cried. This time he really believed, believing that his son had changed his ways, and the prodigal son had turned back. This is not easy, he almost didn't dare to think about this kind of extravagant thing, which master taught his son like this?

"By the way, my father, in addition to pressing Yang Ying, the king of Zhennan, back to the capital to be punished, the son has an important matter to discuss with my father. ”

"Say~ You can say anything...... For the father, I will definitely agree. Li Jing didn't know what to say, anyway, now his son's request will never be refuted, so moved......

Li Hongji said: "Don't talk about the extra nonsense, the father should know more than the son." The retainer wanted a few ships, as well as an edict from his father. Erchen prepared to go to the Khitan boundary by sea, borrowed a road from the Khitan, and went directly to the king valve outside Cangzhou, and spent a lot of money to invite the king valve craftsmen to Shouzhou to install the city defense equipment. Shouzhou was originally unbreakable, but if there is a royal lord's defense equipment, it must be broken. The most important thing now is to hold Shouzhou, just wait for Chai Rong to squander Guo Wei's gifts, and then it will be time for us to fight back. ”

Li Jing was completely stupid, it wasn't that he didn't understand Li Hongji's words, he just didn't believe that these words would come out of Li Hongji's mouth. This is an extremely clever military deployment and strategic vision, but what has happened to the boss in front of his eyes?

Li Congjia is also stupid, he has actually thought about this matter, but he doesn't want to establish diplomatic relations with the Khitan, because he also hates the Khitan very much. But if you go directly to the north, it is impossible to pass through the boundary of the Great Zhou Territory, and you have to bring people back from Cangzhou.

Li Congjia just thought about it at that time, if there is a royal lord's city defense equipment, it can really ensure that Shouzhou is foolproof, no matter how many people Chai Rong sends to come, it will be in vain. But it was too difficult to bring the king's people from Cangzhou to Shouzhou, so Li Congjia didn't think much about it.

Now this matter has been brought up by Li Hongji, and the plan he gave is completely feasible. This is no longer a mature problem, and the current Li Hongji is simply a pillar of the country.

How could there be such a big change in a few months? Li Jing really couldn't believe it, and Li Congjia couldn't believe it, how could this kind of thing be possible?

Li Jing came back to his senses and said, "Hongji, don't joke with me, who came up with this method?"

"Erchen didn't want to ask for credit, but this plan was really thought up by Erchen himself. After all, Erchen is the prince of the Southern Tang Dynasty, and he doesn't need to invite credit at all, if he can, Erchen really hopes to give these credits to some henchmen, so that these people can be reused. ”

Li Hongji's words are very realistic, he is the prince of the Southern Tang Dynasty, and the Southern Tang Dynasty will be handed over to him sooner or later, so he doesn't need any credit at all. If he had any of these credits, he would rather give them to others to gain support.

Li Jing and Li Congjia also understood what Li Hongji meant, he wanted to do more things for Nantang, he wanted to protect this land, this country. As for those who don't take credit, he can't look down on them at all. Is this still the same Li Hongji as before? Obviously not anymore.

Li Jing even had some doubts that someone was using disguise techniques to pretend to be his son. But after taking a closer look, he did see that this was his own son, after all, he was biological...... There was no reason why he couldn't recognize it.

It's changed, it's really changed.

Li Jing and Li Congjia are already completely sure that the useless straw bale Li Hongji has completely changed, he is now a very shrewd prince, and his mentality is completely different from before, even if Li Hongji had a bad idea, he was in a hurry to ask Li Jing for credit, and Li Jing at that time looked really like throwing up.

Li Jing nodded and said, "This matter is approved by my father, but you have just returned to Jinling, so you should rest for a while before setting off." ”

"Erchen obeys the order, Erchen may rest for about half a month, because Erchen wants to keep one person in this half a month......" Li Hongji said: "Father doesn't know, that Wuyanzi Daoist was originally just the second child's guard, and it was recommended by a friend of the second child. At that time, this person offered a price of 1,000 taels of gold and guarded him for half a year. When Erchen heard this price, he was so angry that he almost didn't get angry, even if our family has money, we can't waste it like this. But later, after Erchen knew the ability of Wuyazi Daoist, he really felt that a thousand taels of gold was too little, and Erchen was even willing to bid 100,000 taels of gold to keep Wuyazi Dao for half a year. It's a pity that Daoist Wuyazi is not short of money, he really wants to get a thousand taels of gold and leaves Nantang...... Erchen wants to keep the Wuyanzi Daoist with sincerity, and if he can't keep it, he doesn't want to force it. ”

"Who is this Boundless Dao Master, why have you never heard of it?" Li Jing said depressedly: "Congjia, you often walk around the rivers and lakes, have you ever heard of this person?"

"It's a bit familiar, but I can't remember it at all. Li Congjia shook his head, he had never heard of Wuyazi, but this name felt a little familiar, why is this?

"Where is the Daoist Master Wuyazi now? The widow wants to see this Daoist in person, what is he capable of. "Li Jing is also very interested in Wuyazi, he can teach his straw bale son like this, if he is not the emperor, I really want to go up and kowtow to this Wuyazi Daoist a few times, but he is the emperor as long as he expresses a little gratitude is enough.

Li Hongji said: "At this time, the Daoist of Wuyazi is in the East Palace, and the sons can immediately introduce the Daoist to know his father. But...... In some cases, if the Boundless Son does not enter the palace, can the father move to the East Palace?"

"Well~ This kind of worldly master will have some quirks, and it's nothing to walk a few steps, and drive the East Palace. ”

"Wait...... Please wait a moment. Li Hongji said: "Everyone go out, Venerable White Lotus, please also go out, Xiao Wang has an important matter to discuss with his father and third brother, and this matter involves royal privacy." ”

"Yes. ”

Venerable White Lotus immediately kicked everyone out of the imperial study, and he closed the door by himself. After everyone was far away, Li Hongji was ready to speak.

"Third child, stop pretending, I know you're not blind. ”

As soon as these words came out, Li Jing and Li Congjia trembled, and both of them were so frightened that they almost fell. Because of the support of hundreds of officials, a second heir is never allowed, although Li Jing is not afraid of him, but he is very worried that his three sons and brothers will kill each other, you must know that Li Congjia's right eye is the face of the emperor, which is a great threat to Li Hongji.

Li Hongji has let Li Congjia hide for more than 20 years when he was a straw bag, and Li Hongji at this time is already very shrewd, and his martial arts are not bad. If Li Hongji plans to have an imperial power struggle at this time, even Li Jing can't keep Li Congjia, although Li Congjia's martial arts are very high, but many things can't be solved with martial arts.

"Big ...... Big Brother ......"

"Don't worry, if it were me before, after knowing about this matter, I'm afraid that countless assassins will come to assassinate you the next day, even if you can't kill you, you won't be able to stay in Jinling. But now the eldest brother is different, we are brothers, whoever is the emperor is the same, even if I, Li Hongji, am just a prince, it doesn't matter, as long as the Southern Tang Dynasty is not destroyed, the throne is in the hands of my Li family, whoever is the emperor can do it. And the third brother has excellent martial arts and outstanding resourcefulness, and he is far inferior to you as a brother, but now the situation is different, and the position of the prince cannot be replaced, please forgive the third brother. ”

Li Congjia said: "Big ...... The eldest brother should not say this, the younger brother does not have the slightest idea about the throne. ”

"No, no, no, Brother Wei thinks that if there is a third brother as the emperor, it should be better than Brother Wei. But your character weakness is too great, even if you are smart, but you can't communicate with people, you still can't sit on this throne. Li Hongji said: "This situation is like the relationship between Sun Ce and Sun Quan of the Three Kingdoms, if you talk about fighting the world, Sun Ce is a hundred times stronger than Sun Quan, but if you talk about guarding the country, Sun Quan is far better than Sun Ce." Therefore, Sun Ce finally handed over the state of Wu to Sun Quan, and the state of Wu was also the last of the three kingdoms to perish. The same is true of our two brothers, who are not as good as you as brothers, but now you are smarter than you when you are brothers in the world. Now that the Southern Tang Dynasty is currently the enemy, the third brother still abides by his duty, and one day the Southern Tang Dynasty will fight Shouzhou and counterattack the Great Zhou, and the third brother will definitely be able to shine. ”

It's good, it's so good, Li Jing wants to stand up and applaud his son......

In fact, Li Jing has long seen that it is the best choice for the current Southern Tang Dynasty to let the eldest son be the emperor, although the third child is very good, but the third child's personality is indeed a little weird, he really doesn't know how to communicate with people, and he has never said a word to please others, so the support rate of the court is so low.

Now the situation of these two brothers is exactly the same as what Li Hongji said, although the third brother has the ability, but it is no problem for him to lead the troops to fight, or to govern the world. It's just that this kind of person can't be an emperor, because the emperor's more important thing is to have relationships, and Li Congjia doesn't have this ability at all.

Li Congjia was also surprised, he had never thought about this problem before. He just thinks that his right eye is heavy, and it must be the emperor's order. I only blame myself for being born too late, so I didn't have this opportunity.

Now Li Congjia has thought carefully about the relationship between Sun Ce and Sun Quan, and it is indeed as the eldest brother said, he is only suitable for fighting the world, not for guarding the world. Since it was the current enemy of the Southern Tang Dynasty at this time, he had no reason to fight with his eldest brother.

Li Congjia said: "What the eldest brother said is that the younger brother admires it very much. The younger brother originally had no intention of competing with the eldest brother for the world, and just wanted to do his best to assist and keep the ancestral foundation. ”

"The younger brother is much smarter than the younger brother, so he doesn't need to explain too much. Li Hongji said: "But there is one thing that is very curious about my brother, why have you pretended to be blind since you were a child? ”

Li Congjia slowly tore off the white veil, revealing his eyes. At this time, Li Hongji completely understood, because he clearly saw the third Li Congjia's right eye, which was definitely the appearance of the emperor.
