Chapter 335: Court battle

Views:

As a princess of a country, especially a leftover princess, the most important thing to worry about is not the marriage, whether she will be sent to another country for marriage, whether she will be promised to the second fool of a minister's family

As a woman, her martial arts skills are unreliable, she has a jealous temper, full of national self-esteem, and she always wants to oppress others when she is so old.

If Jing Guo's princes can have half of her, after the old emperor returns to the west, there should be no problem with Jing Guo's stable and stable Guozuo for decades.

If nothing else happens, after this battle with Qi, Jing's deterrent power among other countries will increase by more than a notch.

Moreover, "God's Punishment" is just the beginning. Gunpowder can be used not only as a bomb, but with a slight turn of the mind, muskets and cannons are all out. They are antiques in later generations, and they are definitely great at the forefront of technology today. invention.

According to the law of historical development, with the appearance of black powder, these things should come into being soon. The last time I suffered a big loss, this time Li Yi does not intend to be the first bird. Anyway, a "God's punishment", just Enough to keep them entertained for years.

After parting with Li Mingzhu, he walked back to Li's house alone, and at the door, he happened to see his second aunt, Fang, getting into a carriage with two maids.

Before Li Yi could say hello, the other party snorted coldly. As always, he didn't even want to pretend to be kind on the surface.

Li Yi didn't care about this. It was not the first time he had met the second aunt who was not easy to get along with, and he could understand the other party's resentment and dissatisfaction. Fireproof, burglarproof and long-term housing, in those big families with two bedrooms and three bedrooms, this is a truth that must be adhered to.

Today's Li family has a lot of unfamiliar faces. The old lady's 60th birthday is a very important day. In addition to close relatives and friends, those distant relatives who are only eight poles away will also come Happy birthday to the old lady.

Because most people's life expectancy is relatively short at this time, and people who live to the age of 60 are already making a lot of money. Special birthdays like the 60th and 70th birthdays are held by rich families.

The mansion was busy up and down, like it was New Year's Eve, so Li Yi seemed extraordinarily leisurely.

Apart from copying the scriptures every day, going to Li Xuan's place to watch him fly a kite when I was tired, and offering a few constructive suggestions by the way, I spent most of my time fighting landlords with Miss Liu Er.

Of course, two people can't play, and the same boring little fat man was arrested.

Liu Ruyi's lost luck in mahjong was recovered here, the little fat man lost a lot of snacks, and a small half of the money Li Yi brought from Qing'an Mansion had already entered her pocket.

The business that only makes money without losing money, Miss Liu Er never tires of it. Whenever Li Yi loses badly and wants to end, she will suddenly give birth to the idea of testing his kung fu, and the game can continue.

As for the little fat man, it's even simpler.

After Liu Ruyi taught him a few simple moves, the little fat man didn't feel sorry for his snacks anymore, and even took out the good things he treasured. The parents came to the door, and they had to lie on their stomachs when they played cards the next day.

"Brother, what kind of birthday gift do you think I should prepare for grandma?" The little fat man said while lying on the bed while rubbing his buttocks.

The little fat man has been hanging out with Li Yi recently, and he is used to letting him make up his mind for him.

Li Yi said while arranging the cards in his hand: "As long as you don't want to give away your treasured candied fruit and pastries, anything is fine."

"Why?" Having guessed what was in his heart, the little fat man raised his head and stared at Li Yi with wide eyes: "My mother said, the gift should be unique."

After being reminded by the little fat man, Li Yi remembered that, as the eldest grandson, he had to prepare gifts for the old lady himself, too expensive things that he couldn't afford, and things that were too cheap and insincere, so he had to think carefully.

While Li Yi was thinking about this matter, Liu Ruyi made a subtle gesture with one hand, and the little fat man understood, and quietly handed over a card...

In the morning, Li Yi couldn't even afford cheap gifts.

After borrowing dozens of taels of silver from Miss Liu Er, and making a written statement that he would pay back double when he went back, his pockets bulged up a little.

The little fat man followed him like an idiot, and promised that when the little fat man went to Li Xuan's residence this time, he would also be allowed to fly on the kite for a while.

A galloping horse came galloping from behind, Li Yi hurriedly pulled the little fat man away, watched the knight in armor galloping past on the horse, and quickly disappeared from sight, leaving only a messy street And the sound of pedestrians yelling.

When we meet again next time, it is necessary to remind Her Royal Highness that this kind of unscrupulous horse riding in the downtown area should be taken care of.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way!"

In a place that Li Yi couldn't see, he immediately looked tired, as if the knight who hadn't closed his eyes for several days and nights shouted hoarsely, and went straight to the palace gate.

At this time, in the Golden Luan Hall, the morning court, which usually ended long ago, had been delayed for more than an hour.

Today, the emperor was sitting on the dragon chair with a gloomy face, and there was a lot of noise in the hall, and all the civil and military officials were arguing about something.

"Your Majesty, I have impeached the envoys of the State of Qi for their audacious behavior. They galloped their horses recklessly in the city and injured several people. I implore Your Majesty to deal with it according to the law!" A young official came up and said, holding a wat board.

The noisy voices in the court paused, and everyone looked at the young censor like a fool. After all, he was a young man. Although censors do this kind of thing, they have to be divided into time and occasions. Is it about the envoys of the Qi State wantonly riding their horses

No one cared about the young censor, an old man stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, I think it is all right to cede a city to save the people on the frontier from suffering and reduce the casualties of soldiers."

"The minister seconded the proposal!"

"The minister seconded the proposal!"

As soon as the old man finished speaking, several people stepped forward to express their support.

"Fuck your mother, every inch of Jingguo's land was poured down by the soldiers. If Qiguo wants it, he will fight with them with real knives and guns, for fear of a ball!"

"You shitty envoy, you should be dragged out and hacked. We really think Jingguo is a soft persimmon!"

"Your Majesty, give the old minister a hundred thousand elite soldiers, and all the thieves who can be killed will not be left behind!"

Seeing that the court hall was like a vegetable market, and the first-rank officials were yelling curses like shrews, Emperor Jing rubbed his eyebrows, and when he looked down at the envoys of Qi State, his face became more gloomy.
