Among the sounds of greetings, an inappropriate voice seemed very abrupt.
Yang immediately covered Li Lizhi's mouth with an embarrassed look on her face.
The eldest grandson gave Li Lizhi a look on his face with an ugly look on his face.
Li Chengqian, who was already sensible, looked a little gloomy.
On the contrary, the little fat Li Tai continued to run and jump heartlessly.
Li Shimin's expression remained normal, and he even spoke out to encourage his daughter, "Li Zhi'er is right, he is the bad guy!"
Li Yuanji said angrily and funny: "Second brother, is this how you tell your children about me?"
Li Shimin said unceremoniously: "So what?"
The eldest grandson thought that her husband had taken advantage of him and had lost his temper, so he quickly winked at him.
Li Shimin gave his eldest grandson a calm look.
Li Yuanji smiled and sighed: "What can I do? No matter what I say, they are still my descendants. Even if you say bad things about me to them, I can only pamper them."
Li Shimin snorted and said nothing.
Li Yuanji looked at Li Lizhi with a smile and said: "My daughter can tell right from wrong at such a young age, and can tell who is a good person and who is a bad person. If you are so smart, how about your uncle rewarding you with a wishful husband?"
Li Shimin's expression changed instantly, and Changsun's expression also changed drastically.
Li Shimin said aggressively: "Aside from teasing me with your sister-in-law and nephews, what else will you do?"
Li Yuanji looked at Li Shimin and smiled: "Second brother, do you think I am acting like a villain?"
Li Shimin opened his mouth, wanting to say yes, but when the words came to his lips, he did not say them out.
Because he is not qualified to say such things.
During the Xuanwumen coup, he sent people with knives to take care of his nephews and nieces, but he didn't succeed.
So in this matter, he is not qualified to accuse others from the moral high ground.
Li Yuanji blocked Li Shimin's mouth, continued to stare at Li Lizhi and said with a smile: "The royal family of the Central Plains has always talked about marriage. In recent days, the royal families of Tubo, Tuguhun, Goguryeo, Silla, Baekje, and Linyi have been asking for marriage.
Marry me, the noble daughter of the Tang Dynasty.
Does Li Zhi'er want to go to Tubo, Linyi, Silla, or Baekje?"
How could Li Lizhi understand this? Her mouth was covered by Yang again, and she could only stare at the person, as if she was trying to turn him into a human being.
Li Shimin gritted his teeth and looked like he was going to fight to the death.
Both Zhangsun and Yang were a little panicked.
Although they realized that Li Yuanji was joking, they did not dare to take any chances.
Li Chengqian stood there gloomily, seeming to be thinking about something.
After a long time, he seemed to have made up his mind. He stood up with a tight face and said seriously: "Uncle Wang, my nephew will listen to you obediently. Please don't marry Li Zhi'er to Tubo."
Li Shimin's face suddenly turned dark, and he glared at Li Chengqian and said, "What nonsense are you talking about?"
He can accept his son being mediocre, but he cannot accept his son making sacrifices for a woman.
Even if this woman is his daughter or his son's biological sister, it won't work.
Li Yuanji was stunned and said with some surprise: "Okay, good boy, I didn't expect you to have such a sense of responsibility. At this point, you are much better than your father."
Historically, Li Shimin's performance in family relationships was truly horrific.
His behavior in terms of marriage is also very ruthless.
Li Chengqian was willing to stand up for his sister, even at the risk of what he considered to be the highest price, which shows that he is stronger than Li Shimin in terms of family ties.
Although someone who cares too much about family ties will not become a good person in power.
But a person who cares too much about family ties is actually a good family member.
"snort!"
When Li Shimin heard this, he snorted and expressed his dissatisfaction.
Li Yuanji knew why Li Shimin hummed and twisted his lips.
It's just that I feel that my behavior of valuing family affection is very childish.
After all, many successful people in power are ruthless guys.
And almost no one who has feelings and righteousness becomes a qualified person in power.
Therefore, it is indeed naive to look at this matter from the perspective of judging whether a person in power is qualified.
However, Li Yuanji didn't care that Li Shimin would have this opinion, and he didn't even bother to pay attention to Li Shimin's reaction on this matter.
"Good boy, seeing that you still have some sense of responsibility, Uncle Wang will agree to your request this time."
Li Yuanji stepped forward, rubbed Li Chengqian's little head and said with a smile.
Li Chengqian used to be very resistant when his head was rubbed, but today he was uncharacteristically not only letting him rub it, but also showing a big smile.

It can be seen that Li Chengqian liked this kind of praise and recognition very much.
"Okay, let's go play."
After Li Yuanji rubbed Li Chengqian's head for a while, he patted Li Chengqian's shoulder and told Li Chengqian to go play. Then he looked at Li Shimin and said, "Looking for a place to chat?"
Li Shimin snorted coldly: "You come to me for the first time, it must be up to you!"
Li Yuanji smiled and said nothing.
Li Shimin snorted again and walked towards a pavilion on one side.
Li Yuanji followed.
After arriving at the pavilion and sitting down, Li Yuanji said straight to the point: "I have encountered some things in recent days that I can't figure out, so I came to see you for more details."
Li Shimin was stunned for a moment, then he chuckled and said, "Are you asking for something from me?"
Li Yuanji smiled and said: "I am helping you atone for your sins!"
Li Shimin's face suddenly turned dark, and he could no longer tremble or say anything.
Li Yuanji told Li Shimin everything in the letter sent back by Su Dingfang, as well as all the arrangements he had made in Daizhou, so that Li Shimin could understand the details, and then asked: "Tell me, Da
Why did the He family suddenly betray the Turks and get involved with Master Liang?
Do they really think that Master Liang can defeat Jie Li?"
Li Shimin pondered and thought.
When it came to talking about business, he no longer looked like he was grumbling.
Instead, there was a serious look on his face.
"The Western Turks, Goguryeo, Baekje, and Silla, when Liang Shidu and Dahe went to attack the Turks, were there any movements?"
After pondering for a long time, Li Shimin suddenly asked.
Li Yuanji was stunned and said: "Are you saying that Western Turks, Goguryeo, Baekje, and Silla are likely to be involved?"
Li Shimin nodded and said: "With the military strength of Liang Shidu and the Dahe clan, they did not dare to clamor against the Turks. Therefore, they must have received other help before they dared to betray the Turks and send troops to conquer Xiang."
Li Yuanji said thoughtfully: "It should be impossible for Goguryeo, Baekje, and Silla. If they make any move, the Tuji and Taji forces will tell us immediately.
As for the Western Turks, it is possible.
But how did the Western Turks, Liang Shidu, and the Dahe family get in touch?"
The Western Turks are really closing their doors now. To be precise, they are closing the door to the east to show their arrogance.
Tong Yehu already felt that he was invincible and was not willing to communicate with any forces in the east.
Even if they send envoys, they only send them once every three to five years.
Those who are weaker than him, those who rule farther territories than him, are more active than him in sending envoys.
Therefore, it is almost impossible for him to take the initiative to contact Master Liang. It would be very difficult for Master Liang to take the initiative to find him.
Li Shimin said with a look of disdain: "Who told you that Goguryeo, Baekje, and Silla are impossible? How can you be sure that the Tudiji and Ta forces will be loyal to you and will tell you if they encounter any problems?
Wouldn't Tu Diji betray the Tang Dynasty because of his own interests?
Couldn't the attack on the powerful troops be the bait released by Tong Yehu? The purpose is to prepare for the eastward invasion?"
Li Yuanji was stunned again.
If he were a pure Tang Dynasty person, he would definitely be ashamed by Li Shimin's words.
Because any pure Tang Dynasty person who hears Li Shimin’s words will think that what Li Shimin said is right.
But he is not a pure Tang Dynasty person, he has read history.
He knew what kind of bird Tong Yehu looked like, he also knew what kind of birds Goguryeo, Baekje, and Silla looked like, and he also knew what kind of person Tudiji was.
The current situation, which is different from history, is to rely on strength.
Historically, although the Qi forces rebelled against the Western Turks, they did not surrender to the Tang Dynasty.
Judging from what Tong Yehu did in the Western Regions and the historical performance of Tong Yehu's troops after they surrendered to the Turks, the possibility that Tong Yehu was not Tong Yehu's bait is extremely low.
It is even more impossible for the powerful troops to unite the Liangshidu, Daha clan, Goguryeo, Silla, and Baekje forces in the name of Tong Yehu to deal with the Turks before Yanzhou has completely established a foothold.
After all, the strength of these forces is higher than that of the Tongqiang Department. How could they be fooled by Ye Hu, the Tongqiang Department, into dealing with the Turks in a few words without seeing Tong Yehu?
Therefore, what Li Shimin said will never happen.
"Even if Tu Diji rebels against the Tang Dynasty, it is impossible for him to cooperate with Liang Shidu. Even if Tu Diji is the bait set out by Tong Yehu, it is impossible for Liang Shidu, the Dahe clan, Goguryeo, and Baekje to be defeated."
, these forces in Silla unite."
Li Yuanji said firmly.
Because it's true.
Even the Tang Dynasty, which these forces were familiar with, could not get them to unite to deal with the Turks. How could a powerful force do it?
Tu Diji looted all the money and food that Liang Shidu had accumulated over the years, and almost took away Liang Shidu's wife and children. Even if he rebelled against the Tang Dynasty, he would not be able to cooperate with Liang Shidu.
Moreover, the two largest forces around Tudiji are the Tang Dynasty and the Turks.
Tu Diji betrayed the Tang Dynasty and would definitely go straight to the Turks.
He would only seek cooperation with Master Liang when his brain was exhausted.
If there is an elder brother, why don’t you look for the younger brother?
It's not good to be on an equal footing with Master Liang. Do you have to be Master Liang's younger brother?
Is he cheap?
Li Shimin was speechless by these words and stared angrily.
Li Yuanji seemed not to notice Li Shimin's angry look and continued: "Think about it again and see if there are other possibilities. I always feel that this matter is not that simple."
