Li Zhi, don't be a coward

Chapter 13 Gathering the Stars



Chapter 13 Gathering the Stars
Li Qinzai was furious.

I never expected that when I close my eyes and open them again, people are alive, but the money is gone, oh~~
The butler Wu Tong hurried over, bowed to Li Qinzai with a wry smile on his face.

"Report to the official! People in the inner house, money was stolen, how rampant! Report to the official immediately!" Li Qinzai was very angry.

Although he is a dude who has no worries about food and clothing, Li Qinzai was born in poverty in his previous life, and he lived a tight life after working. He paid more attention to money than the rich and powerful children of this era.

"Wu Shaolang, Wu Shaolang calm down, your money was not stolen, but..." Wu Tong explained profusely.

"But what?"

Wu Tong muttered for a long while, then said softly: "Erlang gave an order last night, since Wu Shaolang has been released by the emperor's special decree, and he doesn't have to move to Lingnan anymore, the money given to you by the old Duke and Erlang will naturally be taken back."

"Take it back?" Li Qinzai's anger subsided instantly.

Wu Tong said embarrassingly: "Last night, I wanted to explain to Wu Shaolang in person before taking it back, but Wu Shaolang went to bed early last night, and Erlang sent someone to remind me several times. I was so bold that I had to take your silver cake and hand it over to you." Go back to the accounting room, I plan to explain the apology to you this morning..."

Li Qinzai let out a sigh, and said flatly: "It's good if it's not stolen, take it back if you take it back."

Wu Tong blinked in disbelief, so forget it?

After Wu Shaolang went through a big change, his temperament was really different.If the money was gone before the change, the house would be filled with swearing and swearing, and the Li family would have to be up and down, and finally they would die under Li Siwen's strong suppression.

Li Qinzai was not pretending. Hearing that the money was taken back by his father's order, he completely calmed down his anger.

The money that I didn't make by myself was taken back as a matter of course. It doesn't matter, it will take a long time.

As a time traveler, if you don't even know how to make money, why not find a servant girl, Xiao Jian, and press him to death.

Butler Wu is very grateful to such a reasonable young master.

After thanking him and still not leaving, Wu Tong went on to say: "Wu Shaolang, the old man had an order this morning, please dress Wu Shaolang neatly and not go out, there will be a visitor in the afternoon."

"Grandfather's guest, I don't need to see you, I have to go out later..."

"Fifth Shaolang, you can't go out, and the foot ban imposed by Erlang has not been lifted." Wu Tong smiled awkwardly.

"Too much deceit!" Li Qinzai was a little angry again.

The money is gone, and you are still not allowed to go out. How can you make money if you don’t go out?

"Fifth Shaolang, calm down, your eyes are red and your face is red, obviously you are angry again, this old man has a unique remedy..."

Before he finished speaking, Li Qinzai said helplessly: "Shut up..."

Subconsciously put his hands in his trouser pockets, like a middle-aged down-and-out man who lights a cigarette when he is desperate, inhales deeply, and then exhales slowly, exhaling the bitterness of half his life.

However, Li Qinzai had neither a cigarette nor a trouser pocket...

Rubbing his face vigorously, Li Qinzai looked at the distant sky with vicissitudes of life, and said quietly: "I don't want to see guests, I just want to make money."

…………

Regardless of whether Li Qinzai wanted to see him or not, the guest finally came.

After noon, the servants of Li's mansion rushed to the front hall one by one to pass the news.

"General Zuo Wuwei, Duke Xing Su Dingfang pays homage to the old Duke—"

"General Youwei, Liang Jianfang, Duke of Yanmen County pays homage to the old Duke—"

"General Zuo Xiaowei, Bi Heli, the Duke of Yi, pays homage to the old Duke—"

"General Zuo Wuwei, Xue Rengui, a man from Hedong County, pays homage to the old Duke—"

In just half an hour, the Li family's mansion was full of stars and heroes gathered.

They are all famous generals in the world, and they are all the pillars of the country. All the generals stood in front of Li Ji and bowed in salute at the same time.

Li Ji was wearing plain robes, sitting upright in the hall, and received the gifts from all the generals with a golden knife on his horse.

The British Duke's prestige in the Tang army can be seen.

Although they are famous generals, they are all heroic men in the army. After the etiquette, the generals let go of Xingke unceremoniously.

General Liang Jianfang of the right guard immediately sat in the guest seat, patted the table vigorously, and said loudly: "Hurry up, the food and drink are served quickly. The old man heard the news last night and came from the Beidaying outside the city early in the morning. Take a bite, and this old man will starve to death!"

Xing Guogong Su Dingfang sneered: "It's not so easy to starve to death for a generation with wine bags and rice bags."

Liang Jianfang was stunned for a moment, and then became furious: "It's not good for someone surnamed Su to bully me, old Liang Maqiang!"

Tie Lefan poked Qibi Heli gloating at the fire: "Old Liang, the Su must be deceiving you and Ma Qian. I don't know what you think, anyway, I can't bear it if I change my husband."

Su Dingfang gave Qibi Heli a cold look: "You are not a good person, if you are not convinced, so what if you go with the wine bag and rice bag surnamed Liang? Why should I be afraid!"

In the front hall of the Li family, Xue Rengui, a man from Hedong County, was the only one with a smile on his lips, but he was silent.

Many famous generals gathered together, Xue Rengui was the youngest, and all of them were famous generals in the Zhenguan Dynasty, only Xue Rengui really came out after Li Zhi ascended the throne.

In terms of seniority in the army, Xue Rengui is really a little bit behind.

It's not without reason that veterans talk trash to each other when they meet.

Since the Zhenguan Dynasty, the veterans have been fighting for battles, military exploits, trophies, titles, and rewards. They have been fighting nonsense for most of their lives. I don’t know how many grievances they have accumulated.

A few words are not dealt with, and the front hall is about to fight.

Li Ji, who was sitting in the main seat, was used to seeing things all the time, and was a little impatient. He knocked on the table and said coldly: "Everyone who wants to fight, go out and fight. If you are killed, I will bury you. If you come back alive, I will tell you about it."

As soon as this remark came out, everyone in the hall did not dare to speak, and sat down in embarrassment.

British Duke is No.1 in the Tang Army, no one dare not listen to his words.

"Grandfather, I heard that your grandson made a novelty that can double the range of bows and arrows? Is this true? Old Su came here specially for this purpose today." Su Dingfang looked at Li Ji expectantly.

Everyone looked eager.

Others may not understand, but the generals in the army know better than anyone else how important a bow and arrow with double the range is to a war.

Get ahead of the enemy and go as far as the enemy can't. When the battle is together, the arrow rain with double the range will be the first opportunity to win the game.

Li Qinzai just invented the God Arm Bow yesterday. As soon as the news spread, many famous generals came to visit today, which shows how much the generals attach importance to this new sharp weapon.

Facing the expectant eyes of the generals, Li Ji stroked his beard slowly, feeling a long-lost complacency in his heart.

Very cool!Although most of our children and grandchildren are waste materials, the waste materials of the old husband's family have at least hit the big luck, created the magic arm bow, and made contributions to the Tang Dynasty.

And the waste materials in your family...then they are pure waste materials.

Throwing my family's waste material into the waste material pile in Chang'an City is also an outstanding existence.Oh, cool!
Although it was a bit weird, Li Ji just felt cool, cool for no reason.

"Indeed, it was created by my old man's grandson, Qin Zai. After the old man presented it to His Majesty, His Majesty was very happy. Pass by without missing the mark." Li Ji said slowly.

Su Dingfang excitedly said: "'God Arm Bow'! It's amazing just by hearing the name! Come on, old man, let's open our eyes!"

The corner of Li Ji's mouth twitched: "Keep your eyes open! This thing has been dedicated to His Majesty, you can't see it."

The generals were taken aback for a moment, then disappointed.

Li Ji said unhurriedly: "However... Your Majesty has decreed that thousands of craftsmen from the Ministry of Industry and Military Weapons Supervision will spare no effort in making god-arm bows. There are still a few months before autumn, and within a few months, the army will be equipped with god-arm bows. Ten thousand arms and bows."

"In the autumn, the king's division will conquer the nine surnames of Tie Le in the north. This bow can shine brilliantly. Everyone, the victory is settled. It depends on who has the ability to ask His Majesty for the position of commander-in-chief."

In the front hall, Li Ji poked the fire with two words, all the generals in the hall stared at each other, and the smell of gunpowder became stronger and stronger.

Before the Son of Heaven ordered the generals to go out, if these people were paralyzed, wouldn't it be me who is the leader?Good too!
The evil in everyone's heart stretched out to the side of the gall, and this idea came up at the same time.

After a short silence, Liang Jianfang suddenly laughed and said, "Let's not talk about it now, haha, since the God Arm Bow was created by the old grandpa and grandson, it can be seen that the famous bastard of the Li family has transformed into a unicorn, the old grandpa Why don't you call him out to see him, we elders would like to have a good time with each other."
