"You old brat, you tricked me. It doesn't count. I want to duel with you!”
"This old man doesn't have time to duel with you. I have to go back and prepare for the expedition!”
" Old demon, you've also had this day. You were knocked down by Medicine Master in a single move, hahaha…"
"That, that's because the horse couldn't take it, what does it have to do with me?!”
After the court session, the Duke gathered together to speak, and Cheng Yaojin, Hou Junji, and the others were inevitably mocked.
Three against one, they were defeated in an instant. It really made them lose face.
However, this also showed how powerful the horseshoes were. They were not afraid of the restrictions of the terrain!
"I offended you just now, but I was forced by the situation. This old man is eager to prove it!”
Li Jing cupped his hands and looked at everyone.
"This old man is going to the Eastern Turks, and I hope that everyone will take care of the Duke of Wei's estate.”
"Apothecary, what are you saying? The conquest of the alien races is a major event, and everyone will be proud of the Duke of Wei Residence!”
Fang Xuanling said solemnly. Then, he thought of something and said,
"By the way, didn't Medicine Master say that he was going to arrange your daughter's marriage before the expedition? Why isn't there any news?"
Instantly, all the High Dukes looked over.
A few days ago, Duke Wei's Public House held a grand martial arts competition for a spouse, and everyone in Chang 'an knew about it.
However, there was no news so far.
"Hahaha…Duke Wei, it can't be that the kid still doesn't want to marry your daughter, right?”
Cheng Yaojin immediately found Li Jing's wrong foot, pointed at him and laughed,"
"Why don't you marry your daughter to my Chumo? We'll be a family in the future. I'll help you look after Duke Gu's mansion when you go out!”
"Get lost!"
Li Jing kicked Cheng Yaojin away, then raised his head and said proudly,"
"The Duke of Wei's Public House is famous all over the world. How can Li Yu not agree to the marriage?”
"This brat has said that after the conquest of the Eastern Turks is successful, he will propose a marriage and officially marry Qingyin!”
"At that time, I will send invitations to your residences. Come and see what kind of hero my son-in-law is!”
As he spoke, Li Jing thought of Li Yu and laughed out loud. He then strode away.
"Li Yu? So that kid was called Li Yu? Look at how proud this old fellow is, tsk tsk…"
Everyone looked at each other. Fang Xuanling stroked his beard and narrowed his eyes.
"Apothecary is so proud of this kid. I'm afraid this horseshoe that suddenly appeared was caused by him!”
"Oh?"
The High Dukes were shocked, and Hou Junji was also shocked.
"You can create such a divine item with unparalleled martial arts? No wonder this old fellow is so proud of himself…"
"From what he said, that kid is going to go out with him?”
"Is this old fellow too impatient? Is he trying to contribute to his future son-in-law?”
……
Dew Palace.
Li Er was handling the political affairs of the expedition. He ordered the Ministry of Revenue to prepare the war funds and immediately transport the grain and materials to Youzhou.
The army and horses had not yet moved, and the grain and fodder had to go first.
In addition, Li Jing was confident that he didn't need many resources for the expedition to the Eastern Turks.
However, to ensure that nothing went wrong, Li Er still wanted to prepare more. This made things difficult for the Minister of Revenue.
" Your Majesty, winter is coming soon. It's hard to guarantee that there will be a famine in the cities. There isn't much food in the national treasury. This..."
"No matter what, we need to provide the supplies for the expedition first!”
Li Er waved his hand. He knew that there was not much food in the national treasury, but he still decided to focus on the expedition.
Since they had decided to go on an expedition, they had to ensure that the soldiers had sufficient reserves.
As for domestic matters, they could talk about it later.
"Yes."
The Minister of Revenue accepted the order and left. The chamberlain beside him said softly,"Your Majesty, it's time for lunch."
"Oh?"
Li Er came back to his senses and felt a little hungry. He thought for a moment and said,"How's the Empress 'appetite recently?"
"The Empress lives in seclusion and doesn't seem to eat much…"
Li Er frowned and stood up.”
……
Li Main Hall.
"It's time for niangniang to eat. His Majesty ordered niangniang to eat more.”
The maidservant persuaded softly from the side, but Zhangsun Wugou was fiddling with a messy draft paper. Without turning his head, he said,
"BenGong understands, you all can withdraw.”
"This…"
The maidservant was at a loss when she saw this, and voices sounded from outside.
"Greetings, Your Majesty!"
The maidservant was shocked. She saw a dignified figure walk in from the door and hurriedly bowed.
"Greetings, Your Majesty!"
"Second brother…"
Zhangsun Wugou also turned around. Li Er frowned and said,"
"Guanyin maid, zhen heard that you didn't eat on time?”
"This…"
"Didn't I say so? No matter what, I have to recuperate first. Why don't you listen…"
Li Er was halfway through his serious words when he saw Zhangsun Wugou about to cry again. He immediately said gently,
"Listen to me, take care of your body and wait for the child to come back!”
"I know."
"Then why aren't you eating?"
"I haven't seen the child, I don't have an appetite…"
Li Er: "???"
"Cough cough…Zhen has already sent the Golden Guards to look for him. There will be news soon!”
Li Er could only come over and persuade him softly, but Zhangsun Wugou refused to comply. He turned his head and fiddled with the drafts.
These were all discarded drafts that Li Er had saved from Li Yu.
"This…"
Seeing this, Li Er was also in the wrong and did not know how to answer. How could he not miss Li Yu?
In just two days, he had already noticed that this person was extraordinary. He still had many questions to ask Li Yu.
"Second brother, look at these poems written by Little Yu. They are extraordinary.”
Zhangsun Wugou held the paper as if he had obtained a treasure.
There were paintings and poems here, all of which were the works of great masters. It was inevitable that people would not be able to put them down.
"As long as Long Chengfei was here, I wouldn't have taught Hu Ma to cross the Yin Mountains…"
" The yellow sand wears golden armor after hundreds of battles. Loulan will never return until it's broken…"
Zhangsun Wugou read one poem after another softly. A hint of worry appeared in his eyes as he said,
"Second Brother, do you think that many of the poems written by the child are related to the war?”
"Oh?"
Li Er frowned. He looked at it carefully and was even more puzzled.
How could this kid write so many frontier fortress poems at such a young age?
Don't teach the Hu horses to cross the Yin Mountains?
If you don't break Loulan, you won't return?
Was this poem written by a young man?
"Guanyin maid, you worry too much. This poem doesn't look like it was written by Li Yu.”
Li Er couldn't help but speak. Zhangsun Wugou immediately glared and said,
"Second Brother, tell me, who else in the world is as talented as Little Yu?”
"This…"
Li Er was speechless. He thought for a moment and said,
"Guanyin maidservant, don't think too much. If Little Yu really wanted to join the army, how could I not know? Don't worry if there's nothing!"
"I see that you've been thinking blindly during this period of time. How about this, I'll let Chang Le leave the palace and bring Yu Long in!”
"Don't you like this child the most and say that her personality is like yours? With a companion like this, you won't have any wild thoughts!”
