Li Jing saw that his precious grandson's expression was quite unnatural, so he changed the subject, of course, a bit to show off.

"How do you bitches know about the strong bow made by my grandson?"

Xue Rengui smiled unnaturally, and the other generals said nonchalantly: "With such a powerful weapon, how could we not know that even if the emperor wants to keep it secret, he will not keep it secret from us."

For a while, you and I started a debate.

This said: "Arrange the bows and arrows at the head of the row, press the cavalry on both sides, and release arrows two hundred paces apart. If the cavalry penetrates at the same time, the enemy will be defeated."

The one said: "Wrong, wrong, should..."

The topic was brought up like this, and Li Beidou's face turned pale.

People who have never experienced war always feel that human life is precious, but in the words of these old killers, human life is worth less than a leek.

Li Beidou was just about to find an excuse to leave this dragon's den, when he suddenly heard the butler Lai Fu reporting outside that a guest was coming to see Fifth Young Master.

Li Beidou hurriedly bowed to everyone and left, then ran away as if he was running for his life.

At this moment, Li Beidou suddenly noticed that Cheng Yaojin's eyes were wrong.

What do you mean by the way you look at your grandson-in-law?

Could it be that you have taken a fancy to yourself?

Tell me what you like, can't I change it?

Li Beidou met Xue Na with doubts.

Xue Ne was accompanied by a beautiful little girl. She seemed to be very familiar with him. She didn't have the restraint of a lady in the TV series.

Xue Ne pulled Li Beidou over, with a particularly sincere expression as if he was sharing his worries with his confidant, "Brother, when are you going to watch the show?"

Li Beidou suspected that this kid just wanted to watch the show up close. "There is no show. Yesterday, the old man gave me a cleanup. I was told not to interfere in the Wang family's affairs."

Xue Ne seemed to have lost his favorite toy. He lost interest visibly. With his stomach growling, his eyes rolled to the sky.

The little girl said indifferently: "Brother, I told you to come and watch the fun after breakfast, but you didn't listen. Is it okay this time?"

Hearing the little girl talk about eating, Li Beidou suddenly felt hungry, but when he thought about the current meal, he lost his appetite.

During the prosperous Tang Dynasty, there were only three cooking methods: roasting, boiling and steaming.

Li Beidou almost vomited from eating these days. A tripod similar to a spittoon was filled with meat boiled in plain water. Add some salt and throw in two slices of ginger, and it became a dish.

Li Beidou suddenly had an idea and decided to do a Barbie Q.

Just do it when you think of it. As a dude, it's easy to have a small barbecue.

Li Beidou ordered the butler Lai Fu to prepare ingredients and things.

Not long after, a simple barbecue grill was set up in the backyard.

Li Xinghe appeared out of nowhere and was still clinging to a little maid.

Seeing Li Beidou and Xue Na busy roasting something there, they immediately became interested, stopped pestering the maid, and joined the barbecue team.

It was also learned from Li Xinghe that the little girl's name was Xue Fangfang, and she was Xue Ne's biological sister.

When the little maid saw Xue Fangfang, she ran to the side and complained aggrievedly, "Miss, that Li Xinghe is so bad. He always bullies me. He is even worse than his elder brother."

Xue Fangfang was born in a wealthy family and knew basically everything she needed to know and what she shouldn't know. Naturally, she knew why her father always forced her to come to the Li family as a guest.

But she really didn't like Li Beidou, a playboy, and she felt uncomfortable every time she saw his face.

"Xiao Cui, tell me, is there anyone you want to marry?"

Xiaocui didn't know why the young lady asked this question, so she replied in a panic: "Miss, I don't want to marry. I will stay with the young lady for the rest of my life."

Xue Fangfang shook his head, his voice slightly choked, "Don't worry, Xiaocui, I won't force you to jump into the fire pit. If you meet your beloved in the future, remember to tell me and I will help you."

Xiaocui was frightened by Xue Fangfang and said nervously: "Miss, Xiaocui can't live without you, and she won't leave even if she dies."

Xue Fangfang smiled self-deprecatingly, "Our parents order matchmakers, so can't we women have someone we like?"

Xiaocui asked curiously: "Miss, what do you like?"

Xue Fangfang said without interest: "The husband I am looking for must be an unparalleled hero, capable of conquering the world with his sword and capable of ruling the country with his sword."

If Li Beidou heard this, he would definitely scold him for being hypocritical. He is a little kid with a big heart. Are you sure you are not talking about Li Shimin? Don't forget, the eldest grandson is still alive.

Unfortunately, Li Beidou didn't hear it because he was fighting for chicken legs with Xue Ne.

The three of them were fighting happily when Xue Ne suddenly stopped and said to Li Beidou mysteriously in a low voice: "What do you think of my sister?"

Li Xinghe curled his lips and said in a loud voice: "Your sister is not as good-looking as Xiao Cui."

This voice alarmed Xue Fangfang and the other two people in the distance. They looked at each other and tiptoed towards the three of them.

I heard Xue Ne step up and slap Li Xinghe on the back of the head.

Li Beidou rolled his eyes at Xue Ne. After all, he still couldn't bear to part with the chicken drumstick in his hand. He made no follow-up action and just gnawed it.

Xue Ne was a little anxious, "I'm asking you, how is my sister?"

Li Beidou said casually while eating chicken legs: "It's very good, beautiful, and sensible." Seeing Xue Na staring at him, seemingly dissatisfied, he added, "You are such a good lady. "

Xue Ne giggled, "So you are satisfied?"

Li Beidou was confused, "What do you mean?"

Xue Nabeier said proudly: "Pretend, just pretend." Then he saw Li Xinghe looking at him, so he continued: "Xinghe, tell him what I mean."

Li Xinghe immediately became energetic and said carelessly: "He is asking you again if you want to marry his sister. Anyway, the wealth will not go to outsiders. I will marry Xiaocui." After saying this, he laughed proudly.

Li Beidou looked shocked, and the chicken legs in his hand fell to the ground, "Xue Ne, you really want to take advantage of me, don't you?"

Xue Ne: "..."

Li Xinghe: "..."

The air suddenly became eerily quiet.

Xue Fangfang, who is eavesdropping, is like a tinderbox. Is this girl marrying you, a bastard, and taking advantage of you? ?

Xue Fangfang kicked over the big cauldron with chicken legs, pointed at Li Beidou and cursed: "You shameless person, why don't you die? I don't want to see you anymore, Xiaocui, let's go."

Xiaocui only had time to glare at Li Beidou and Li Xinghe before quickly chasing after them.

Only then did Xue Ne react, and he stood up suddenly, "Li Beidou, what do you mean?"

Not to be outdone, Li Beidou retorted, "What do you mean? You are so much younger than me, but you want to marry your sister to me, and then turn over and become my brother-in-law, right? You want to take your sister for your own selfishness?" You are too inhuman to bet on a life-long event."

Silence, long silence...

Damn it, a straight man of steel!

Xue Fangfang, who had already reached the door, staggered and almost fell down. He turned around and saw Li Beidou looking at him with pity. The meaning was obvious, why do you have such an unlucky big brother, poor baby!
