"Hmm~~! Comfortable~~! The grievances, love and hatred in the world are not as comfortable as sleeping with my wife at home. From now on, I won't leave home for so many days~!"
The next morning.
Li Zexuan lay on the bed and stretched out, feeling extremely comfortable and chanting.
Han Yuxi, who was dressing up in front of the fairy mirror, rolled her eyes at Li Zexuan and said, "My lord, it's already midnight, shouldn't you get up and do Tai Chi with us~?"
Nowadays, fairy mirrors are all the rage in Chang'an, and many wealthy families are hard-pressed to find one, but the Li family is not short of such things. Not only does Han Yuxi have a large mirror here, but there is also a large mirror in Lan'er and Mrs. Li's rooms. From this aspect Generally speaking, the Li family is richer than the imperial palace, because only Queen Changsun has a piece of such a large palace.
"Oh~! Yes, yes, yes~! I almost forgot about the real thing~! Madam, during the past few days when I was away, have you been lazy every morning~?"
Li Zexuan patted his head, quickly jumped out of bed, hugged Han Yuxi's slim waist from behind, and blew gently into her ear.
"Giggle~! Mr. Ming~! It's itchy~! Stop making trouble~!"
Han Yuxi smiled sweetly, turned her head quickly, and said angrily: "Who is lazy~? In the whole family, except for your husband, who is lazy, who can be lazier than you~?"
"Wow~! My wife actually said that I was lazy. It seems that my "work" last night was not up to standard~! Let's not go out now and do it again~!"
Li Zexuan pretended to be angry and was about to take action.
"Ah~ah~ah~ah~! Snake~! Okay snake~! Help~!!!"
At this moment, Xiao He's frightened scream came from outside the door.
Li Zexuan shook his head, it seemed that his good deeds were about to go to waste.
Tai Chi Palace.
Morning pilgrimage is taking place here.
"Since the imperial court issued a decree to reduce taxes on raising chickens, every household in Guanzhong has raised an average of more than 70 chickens. Since many farmers have reserved their own eggs for hatching chicks, the price of eggs has increased in all prefectures and counties. More than twice the price, the price of eggs in Chang'an City increased the most. The merchants took notice of the situation and transported a large number of chickens and eggs from the Jiangnan area. However, they were still unable to make enough money. The old minister begged your Majesty to recruit ships to transport chickens and eggs to the south of the Yangtze River to stabilize the prices of chickens and eggs. ~!"
Fang Xuanling's loud voice echoed in the hall.
"Old minister seconded the proposal~!"
As soon as Fang Xuanling finished speaking, Wei Zheng jumped out and was the first to agree, with such speed that everyone was stunned.
Ahem! The main reason is that eggs in Chang'an City are too expensive recently, and Wei Zheng's financial resources are small. Now he can't eat eggs every day. Wei Penzi feels very melancholy~!
Li Er glanced at Wei Zheng strangely, then nodded and said: "Zhunzou~! Xiao Aiqing, you will be responsible for this~!"
Xiao Yu stepped forward with a straight face: "Old minister, I obey the order~!"
"Report~~!"
"Your Majesty, the Seven Cultivators Sect was destroyed overnight, and General Niu has led his army in triumph~!"
At this time, a sergeant with bright armor entered the hall and said loudly.
Under the court, there was a buzzing sound of discussion.
"Ha~! General Niu is so awesome~! He's back so soon~!"
"Yeah~! General Niu and his friends are better at fighting~!"
"Much faster than James Li~!"
Previously, Li Zexuan was defeated and returned to the court from Sheling Mountain. Niu Jinda led 6,000 troops to conquer Sheling Mountain for the second time. Although many of them did not get the news at the first time, they later heard some rumors from various places. Now, in just three days, Niu Jinda As for the triumphant squadron, while they were praising Niu Jinda for his mastery of troops, they were also criticizing Li Zexuan for his lack of battle experience, which caused the imperial court to lose troops and generals.
"Okay~! Quickly tell General Niu to enter the palace~!"
Li Er's eyes flashed and he ordered in a deep voice.
"No~!"
"Old minister, I pay my respects to Your Majesty~!"
About one stick of incense time later, Niu Jinda, dressed in armor, came to the Tai Chi Hall and saluted Li Er with cupped fists.
"No gift~!"
Li Er stretched out his hand and said with a pleasant expression: "Thank you for your hard work all the way to Jinda. Snake Spirit Mountain is full of poisonous obstacles, the terrain is steep, and it is easy to defend and difficult to attack. Jinda, please tell me and all the ministers why these remnants of the Seventh Cultivator Sect are here." Destroyed at night~?”
Niu Jinda straightened up and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, it's not hard for me, veteran. In fact, I didn't contribute much to the collapse of the Seventh Revision Sect this time~!"
As soon as he finished speaking, all the officials were shocked. Only Li Er sat on it with a happy expression, as if everything was under his control.
"Why did Niu Aiqing say that~?"
Although he had already guessed the result, Li Er still helped to ask everyone's questions.
"As your Majesty said before, the terrain of Sheling Mountain is steep and easy to defend but difficult to attack. If we try to attack the mountain by force, even though we can capture the Seventh Cultivating Sect, we will definitely suffer heavy losses. Therefore, three days ago, the veteran led an army to surround Sheling Mountain and only attacked the mountain. He is besieging but not attacking, waiting for Li Zexuan to come and fulfill his promise~!"
Having said this, many ministers were puzzled.
"Promise~? What promise~!"
"Could it be related to the Seventh Xiu Sect~?"
Fang Xuanling, Changsun Wuji, Qin Qiong, Cheng Yaojin and others all smiled and said nothing. They were all present that day, but they couldn't help being shocked because they heard what Niu Jinda meant and Li Zexuan really said it. He did it, and one person destroyed a sect with a peak master and a Seventh Cultivation Serpent with combat power comparable to that of a grand master. How crazy it sounds~!
Niu Jinda ignored everyone's doubts and continued: "Last night at midnight, I had fallen asleep, but I was awakened by a loud noise. I went out to investigate and found that Sheling Mountain was hit by thunder, accompanied by endless fire. By the time the incense stick was half full, the top of the mountain had turned into a sea of fire, and the miserable howls could still be vaguely heard there.
At dawn today, the old minister led his troops up the mountain and found that all the original houses of the Seventh Xiu Sect on the top of the mountain had collapsed. There were dead bodies everywhere on the ground. Some people were even dead without their whole bodies. Broken limbs and broken arms were everywhere. After being captured earlier, Lu Baodan, a disciple of the Seventh Xiu Sect, identified that the leader of the Seventh Xiu Sect, Yin Batian, and the elder Fei Shen were all killed, and all the other thirty remaining villains were also killed~! But on the top of the mountain, the old minister found no trace of the giant beast of the Seventh Path - the Seventh Path Serpent~! "
"Hiss~!"
After Niu Jinda finished speaking, everyone couldn't help but gasp.
"No wonder I vaguely heard the sound of thunder last night. At that time, I thought I was dreaming~!"
"What happened in Snake Spirit Mountain last night~? How could it be so tragic~?"
"Who did this, to be so cruel~?"
"General Niu just said that he would wait for Li James to fulfill his promise. Could it be that Li James did all this~?"
