When Wu Mei came over, Li Zhi was the only one left in the hall, and there were pearls all over the floor.
Wu Mei's belly was already very big and she couldn't squat down, so she asked the female officer to help her pick up the pearls while she held the bucket to collect them.
Seeing that the extremely bored giant bear had chewed up several pearls for food, Wu Mei glared at the giant bear, and the giant bear obediently stayed in front of the angry Li Zhi, motionless.
The female officials put all the pearls into the bucket held by Wu Mei, then bowed and retreated.
Wu Mei placed a bucket of pearls in front of Li Zhi and said, "Your Majesty can eat this bucket of white rice cooked by Yunchu for a long time."
Li Zhi glanced at Wu Mei and said: "I let him go out to open up territory for the Tang Dynasty, not to go to Liaodong and pretend to be a dead dog."
Wu Mei smiled and said: "Your Majesty said yesterday that Yun Chu was a rare general. Why did you change your statement today?"
Li Zhidao: "Because I have figured it out, the reason why he went to Liaodong was because he was worried that his subordinates would be tricked to death by other stupid generals. It was not to open up territory for the Tang Dynasty. It is too useless."
Wu Mei grabbed a handful of pearls and said, "He is indeed expanding the territory. I heard from your majesty that he has captured a lot of Goguryeo cities."
Li Zhi sighed and said: "Other generals are afraid that their military exploits are not high, and they are afraid that they will not be able to catch my eye. It is better for him to complete the military orders when he has them. If there are no military orders, he will not move. Baiqisi also said that he made countless money, just by transporting it back.
The loot from Chang'an has been loaded onto more than a dozen ships, and now we are taking advantage of the opportunity that the canal is not frozen to rush to Chang'an."
Wu Mei smiled and said: "We have conquered many cities, and the cities we conquered are rich, so we will naturally capture more. And the soldiers of the government fight for the country, and the seizures are part of their profits. I learned from the secret report of Baiqisi."
I learned that not all the things in these river boats belong to Yunchu, many of them belong to Wannian County soldiers." Li Zhi sighed and said: "The Eastern Expedition army is outside, I am not satisfied with the food, and I can't sleep at night, for fear that one of them will not be here.
Shen, just make the same mistake as Yang Guang. It would be better for him to regard a war to destroy the country as a place to gain benefits for the soldiers. This makes me grit my teeth."
Wu Mei pulled out a hairpin, drew a pearl on it, and said, "Your Majesty may not know what Duke Ying said at the first meeting he held with the generals after leaving Beijing. Among them, the most important sentence was
, that is, the generals are not allowed to act on their own, nor are they allowed to have their own whims, otherwise, there will be worries about hanging the flagpole with someone's head. It is not that your Majesty does not know that the British have always had the habit of killing chickens to frighten monkeys. Under this situation,
Just obey your orders honestly, what else does Your Majesty plan to ask Yunchu to do?"
Li Zhi pondered for a moment and said, "What did Zhang Donghai say?"
Wu Mei put down the beads in her hand and said, "Just as Your Majesty thinks, even in Liaodong, Yunchu still thinks about how to make the people of his Wannian County rich. As for fighting, it is just a side thing."
Li Zhi said angrily: "This is what I hate most about him."
Wu Mei looked up at the furious Li Zhi and said: "Your Majesty, you should take another look at Yun Chu's military exploits and you will understand that Yun Chu has never looked down on the Goguryeo people, and he has never treated the Goguryeo people with 100% consideration."
…
Li Zhi frowned and said, "You mean that Yun Chu is just someone else's general and is overqualified?"
Wu Mei laughed and said: "He has achieved so many military exploits with half-hearted efforts. If he was single-minded, wouldn't he be able to cover up the light of Xue Rengui and Pei Xingjian and other powerful generals? Besides, although he has the title of General Dingyuan, his actual duties are
But he is the magistrate of Wannian County. His Majesty thrust a civil servant into a pack of tigers and wolves to compete with the tigers and wolves for military glory. What can he do if he doesn't have no desires and demands?"
Li Zhi said thoughtfully: "Would it be better if we gave him some more soldiers and horses and let him lead the army alone?"
Wu Mei looked into Li Zhi's eyes and said, "Your Majesty, did your Majesty make a big mistake?"
Li Zhi shook his head and said, "Everything seems to be going well so far."
Wu Mei said: "Since the Lord Ying is not wrong, why does your Majesty want to damage his reputation as a commander-in-chief?"
Li Zhi shook his head and said, "I was just thinking about it."
Wu Mei said seriously: "Your Majesty should not even think like this."
Li Zhi sighed and said, "I'm still too worried."
Wu Mei pushed the pearl in front of her to the emperor and said: "Your Majesty, don't worry, no later than next autumn, your Majesty's campaign to conquer the East will be settled, and your Majesty's reputation will far exceed that of the previous emperors. We are just waiting.
That's all, why not think more about how to enjoy the bucket of rice sent by Yunchu."
Li Zhi said: "It's up to you. If I eat this bushel of white rice, I might be worried about overeating."
After that, he kicked the giant bear and left the hall one by one.
It’s just late autumn in Chang’an at this time.@_…j_h_s_s_d_first.issue.update.update~~
When the yellow leaves are fluttering, it is a good time to be filled with the sorrow of separation.
Ever since Master Xuanzang left Da Ci'en Temple, flying yellow leaves will occasionally fall into the Big Wild Goose Pagoda.
The last row of wild geese has already flown over Chang'an, so the name of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda is a bit inconsistent. Therefore, the Big Wild Goose Pagoda without wild geese flying over the rendering environment has to be called the Buddhist Scripture Pagoda.
There are many monks in this high tower who are translating scriptures, and there are even many young monks with good looks who are learning Sanskrit from these people.
Naha's favorite thing to do is to use the slingshot given by her sister-in-law to hit the bald heads of these young monks.
Every time, as long as the shot hits, Naha and a group of young ladies will cheer for joy along with the cries of the young monks.
In fact, this is not bullying. Naha didn't know what her brother was thinking at the beginning, but he actually built the bathhouse under the Big Wild Goose Pagoda.
Winter is better, but every summer, I can often see the big eyes of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda through the shutters of the bathhouse.
Although people in the bathhouse can see outside because of the blinds, people outside the bathhouse cannot see the scene inside the bathhouse.
However, some women claimed that they were peeked at by the bald donkeys of Daci'en Temple while taking a bath.
That's when Naha led a group of lawless young ladies to punish the young monks who peeked at the women's baths.
After successfully punishing the two little monks for peeping today, Naha rode on his black horse and went to the garden by the Qujiang River.
There, some cabbages cultivated by Yunshi are growing.
It had been a month and a half since she had seen them. She wanted to know whether these cabbages had grown as big as her nephew.
As soon as she entered the door, Naha saw Li Hong stealing cabbage...
Then Naha buckled the clay ball and opened the slingshot in front of the horrified eyes of a group of guards, eunuchs, and palace officials.
At the same time as the bow string sounded, Li Hong, who was competing with a cabbage tree, suddenly jumped to the side. The mud ball hit the place where Li Hong was standing just now and penetrated into the soft soil.
Li Hong, who had been the prince for half a year, had developed some dignity. He looked at the guards, eunuchs and palace servants in the courtyard and said, "Get out."
Then, including Dr. Sinongsi, who had been cultivating cabbage here, hurriedly left the cabbage garden.
After these people left, Li Hong said to Naha: "I am the prince now, you can't attack me any more. These people know you, so they didn't fight back against you, and replaced them with a few blind people.
What if I kill you?"
"But you are stealing cabbage!"
Li Hong said helplessly: "When my husband went to war, he also told me to take care of these cabbages. How could he steal them?"
Naha came over, looked at the cabbage at her feet, curled her lips and said: "These broken cabbages are not good at all, they haven't grown to the size of Mei Yu'er yet."
Li Hong thought about Yun Jin, who already weighed more than 20 kilograms and started to climb quickly, and said to Naha: "It's not bad now. I just weighed two cabbage plants and they already weigh five kilograms."
Naha said disdainfully: "My brother said that cabbage can only be considered successful when it grows to the size of Mei Yu'er."
Li Hongdao: "It's good to be able to grow such a big cabbage this year. Let's take our time. The cabbage will eventually grow to the size of Mei Yu'er."
When Naha saw that the cabbage was not as big as she expected, she immediately lost any interest in it.
He raised his slingshot and said, "Then it's the same as before, I'll hit you with the slingshot and you hide."
Li Hong curled his lips and said: "I have already said that I am the prince, and I have no time to play those children's games with you. Besides, you are thirteen years old this year and you are already a young lady who can discuss marriage. You are always chasing me and beating me."
It’s not good, it will affect your marriage.”
Naha laughed and said: "You are just a child, how can you affect my marriage? Besides, Master Xuanzang said that I will marry after the age of twenty, and he said it will be a handsome young man from the south.
.I’ll just wait.”
Li Hong thought for a moment and said: "The south? Most of them are barbaric lands. Do you want to marry a barbarian?"
Naha walked up to Li Hong, kicked the cabbage that Li Hong was about to pull out just now, and said, "My brother said that even if he comes from the south, if I don't like him, I still won't marry him."
Naha was really confused about things like marriage, while Li Hong was young and knew nothing about this matter, so he lost interest in discussing this matter after just a few words.
Li Hong pulled out a total of five Chinese cabbages. After weighing them, he took the middle value and found that it was only four pounds and six taels. Moreover, the leaves spread in all directions and were not wrapped into a knot as Yunchu said.
Although the cabbage failed, the lotus cabbage in a field on the other side of the field produced some knots weighing five or six pounds.
Seeing that winter is coming, these Chinese cabbages and lotus vegetables have no room to continue to grow, so Li Hong plans to take advantage of his free time today to harvest all these vegetables.
The seeds for next year have already been harvested, but I don’t know if these cabbages and lotus cabbages will have new growth next year.
Li Hong carefully took out a small bag from his arms and showed Naha the black seeds inside.
Naha glanced at it and said disdainfully: "What is this?"
Li Hong said with a smile: "The soldiers from the Western Regions gave me the onion seeds they found from Congling. I heard that these things are hard to find, so the border soldiers asked many tribes to get them back for me. For this bag
Things, a lot of people died."
