But Li Ke thought about it and felt that he couldn't leave this precedent. People like Cheng Yaojin had to treat him. Otherwise, what if he really sticks to it like brown candy? Although Li Ke knew that this guy was actually quite measured.
But there are some things that this old guy can't be proud of.
Therefore, as soon as Cheng Yaojin spoke these words, Li Ke's eyes widened, his eyebrows stood up and he said directly: "Are you scolding me?"
"Uh?" Cheng Yaojin choked and felt a little confused. No, Your Highness, your reaction was a bit wrong.
Shouldn't you be very touched when I say this? Even if you are not moved, at least you have nothing to do with scolding me, right?
"Your Highness, why did you say that?! I didn't mean it that way." Cheng Yaojin said aggrievedly again. In the conscience of heaven and earth, he really didn't mean that.
"Why not? I have been in charge of the Tang Dynasty for so many years, and I have developed the military industry of the Tang Dynasty for so many years. If I can still let the Tang Dynasty kill a general of your level, doesn't that mean I am incompetent? Do you think you are scolding me? ?" Li Ke said with a sneer.
"You're already scolding me here, and you still want me to help?"
Cheng Yaojin: "..."
Damn, I was careless.
"No, Your Highness, of course I didn't mean that. How could I scold you? I mean, if I am stupid and accidentally break away from the army or something, causing my own death, this has nothing to do with you, Your Highness." Cheng Yaojin said quickly.
"Okay, you can do it now. You've started scolding me in different ways, right?" Li Ke looked at him and said with a sneer.
"Wait a minute, Your Highness, you can be forgiven for saying I scolded you earlier. After all, what you said makes sense, but why did I scold you? It's just me who is stupid!" Cheng Yaojin was a little dissatisfied.
"The coach leaves the army. No matter what the reason is, if as your bodyguard you don't stay by your side at all times, with the military system I have reformed and the level of training of the soldiers now, you are not scolding me for running the army. Not strict?" Li Ke looked at him lightly.
"What does this have to do with you, Your Highness? The army is out there and I am the commander. Of course they must obey my orders. I must go to other places because of the orders I gave." Cheng Yaojin said.
"Hey, I really feel sad for myself. It has been more than a year and almost two years since the military system was reformed. The hundreds of thousands of soldiers of the Tang Dynasty have basically all been reformed. As a general of the Tang Dynasty, even a general has not fully adapted to the new military system. It was my failure to rashly issue an order to go to an unfamiliar area without notifying the lieutenant general or other friendly forces. This is still scolding me." Li Ke sighed.
"Your Highness, I was wrong." Cheng Yaojin spoke directly without saying anything.
"No, you're right. I didn't teach you well." Li Ke shook his head.
"Just tell me, Your Highness, how can you help me with this? I'm not here to take credit from you. I'm here to ask you to do something. At worst, those bastards in our family, what do you think they are going to do?" Just use it wherever you want." Cheng Yaojin stood up straight and changed his approach.
Li Ke glanced at him sideways and said, "Okay, if you didn't say this earlier, it would be over. Why are you doing so many tricks with me? But which song are you singing today? What? Qinghe Cui Shina Any ideas?"
Cheng Yaojin's step-brother was born in Qinghe Cui Shi, one of the five surnames of Qinghe Cui Shi. His first wife was Sun, the daughter of a county magistrate. You can imagine Cheng Yaojin's status.
"Um...nothing, it's just my own idea." Cheng Yaojin choked. Could it be that His Highness really didn't have any other ideas?
"To be honest, if you say that, I won't care." Li Ke looked at him and said.
Everyone else who was supposed to go to the banquet had gone, that is, his eldest brother was ill and did not come. He was still recuperating in the East Palace, but he should come to the palace in the evening to celebrate the New Year.
At this moment, there were Li Ke and Cheng Yaojin outside.
"This, to be honest, I have nothing else to do. It is indeed what I think. The hereditary title is indeed more harmful to the Tang Dynasty. While I am still alive, this hereditary title can be easily cancelled, but if I do this The veteran minister has passed away, so if Your Highness cancels this hereditary title, won't you be blamed?"
"At that time, there will be no gossip that you are a cunning rabbit and a lackey. Moreover, what I said is indeed true. It will be difficult for Cheng Chumo and the others to hold on to this title. Even if they do not have this title, if they have merit in the future, His Highness can still Is it possible to be stingy with the reward?" Cheng Yaojin said sincerely.
"Fuck." Li Ke directly stretched out his foot and kicked Cheng Yaojin, "What do you mean, you old guy? How can I be stingy with rewards? Rewards are none of my business. That is the emperor's business. Now it is my father. , will be my eldest brother in the future."
"Ah, yes, yes, the old minister made a mistake and slapped his mouth." Cheng Yaojin was straightforward and slapped himself twice. He didn't care about face or anything like that. You don't even know who you are with. Why do you need face?
But Cheng Yaojin couldn't help but complain in his heart, you are alert enough, I just made an unintentional mistake, you can react, it is really outrageous.
"Okay, you can see it clearly." Li Ke did not doubt Cheng Yaojin's statement. Although Cheng Yaojin may not be as smart as Fang Xuanling and others, in certain matters, his reaction is definitely very fast. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to live that long in history.
"Hehe, of course, I was actually influenced by your Highness. As soon as you said those words yesterday, I was quite emotional after thinking about it. Although the eldest son has inherited the throne since ancient times, all It’s my son, and the palms and backs of his hands are all flesh, right? What’s the point of this title? It’s better to let them fight on their own.”
"Besides, isn't this just a way for me to stand in front of you, Your Highness?" Cheng Yaojin said with a chuckle.
"You're scolding me again." Li Ke rolled his eyes.
"Why did I scold you again?" Cheng Yaojin felt helpless.
"What do I, Li Ke, want to do? When do I want others to beat me? I do it directly." Li Ke rolled his eyes. How could I, a person who aspires to be Xiaoyao Prince, look for you guys? People hit the front station?
What if others misunderstand that you are mine or that I am a clique? Of course I will go directly to the scene personally.
Real bosses live behind the scenes and never end up personally. You see, I end up on my own, so I am definitely not a boss.
"Okay... Anyway, that's what I did. I think I did the right thing. Your Highness, you have to help me." Cheng Yaojin thought for a while... There is nothing wrong.
Li Ke was a little helpless. This was not a big deal, so he agreed. However, he had to say that Cheng Yaojin was indeed keen enough. Li Ke had thought about how to deal with these hereditary titles.
