Giving up halfway is not Li Qinzai's style. Besides, this matter is very serious and involves the life and death of countless people. Li Qinzai has no reason to give up.
The construction of palaces in various places has begun, and civilians are gradually being recruited. The national treasury does not know how much food it has spent.
What Li Qinzai had to do was to stop the losses immediately. While many projects such as the palace and road construction had just begun, there had not been too much damage. If the court meeting tomorrow could stop Li Zhi from ordering a shutdown, the people of the world would be able to breathe a sigh of relief and feel at ease. Return home and farm.
As for his personal future, Li Qinzai doesn't care.
He had no career ambitions in the first place, and it would be a miserable life if he continued to live like a dog just for fame and fortune.
However, although he does not care about his personal future, if he offends Li Zhi tomorrow, it will inevitably affect the British government. This is what Li Qinzai is most regretful about.
"Grandpa, dad, for the meeting tomorrow, you two should stay at the house." Li Qinzai said hesitantly.
Li Ji twitched the corner of his mouth and said, "My grandson is a hero, but I, a grandfather, stay at home to avoid trouble? Boy, are you being ignored? Are you looking down on your grandfather?"
"My grandson doesn't dare. It's just that there will inevitably be a dispute tomorrow. My grandson is worried that your majesty will move to the Duke's palace to anger..."
Li Ji sighed, shook his head and said, "You really underestimated the importance of me and the Duke's Palace..."
Li Siwen said calmly: "I am the minister of the Ministry of official affairs. How can I not participate in the Shuowang court meeting?"
"Qin Zai, you have caused a lot of trouble in the past, and I have not beaten you once or twice. Although you have also caused trouble this time, you are doing it for the common people after all, so I won't blame you this time."
A rare smile appeared on Li Siwen's face, and he said: "Although I still cause trouble, I am much more successful than before. Seriously speaking, I am not causing trouble. Asking for life for the sake of the people is an upright and upright gentleman's behavior. "
Li Qinzai's eyes turned red, he lowered his head and said, "Thank you dad for your teaching."
This time he was really moved.
Apart from family affection, the happiest thing is the understanding and approval of relatives. Their understanding is not that they have to compromise because of family affection, but that they discuss the matter as it is and really agree with what they do.
I was able to travel back in time to this family, and while I was a social beast in my previous life, could I have inadvertently saved the galaxy?
Li Ji smiled, stroked his beard and said happily: "Haha, this is a family!"
"Qin Zai, go to court with confidence tomorrow and speak freely in the Golden Palace. The Tang Dynasty is still the Tang Dynasty, and the emperor is still the emperor. If there is no such tolerance in the court, how can it be worthy of the blood, sweat and sacrifices of our old brothers in conquering the country? life?"
…………
Early the next morning, as soon as the fish belly turned white on the horizon, Li Qinzai got up.
Under the service of the maid, Li Qinzai rarely put on court clothes, wearing a gold beam crown on his head and a jade belt around his waist. The jade belt was also equipped with two goldfish bags.
Wearing court clothes and walking out of the door, everyone was waiting outside.
As soon as Li Qinzai stepped out of the door, his steps suddenly stopped.
"Liu Asi, are you crazy? I just went to court, and you gave me more than two hundred chapters. Are you afraid that I will not be impeached enough by the imperial censor?" Li Qinzai said with a serious face.
But Liu Asi raised his chest and clasped his fists and said: "Fifth Young Master, I know the importance, but this is what my husband ordered. He said that today I want you to bring more troops to escort Fifth Young Master into the palace."
Li Qinzai was stunned: "My grandfather ordered it?"
As he said that, he turned around and glanced at the dark backyard, Li Qinzai was thoughtful.
Li Ji would never arrange so many parts for no reason. There must be a reason.
Li Qinzai couldn't ask more questions. Although three generations of his ancestors and grandsons were in court today, Li Qinzai still chose to enter the palace alone in order to avoid suspicion.
Liu Asi not only assembled more than two hundred troops, but also prepared the full guard of honor of the Marquis of Weinan County, including ceremonial plaques, screens and fans, and gold boring machines, which looked majestic and intimidating.
Li Qinzai sighed. He had been granted the title of Marquis of the County for so long. He didn't like to be in the limelight before and always behaved in a simple manner no matter where he went. Today, for the first time, he used the ceremonial guard belonging to his title.
I hope the first time is not the last
times, otherwise it would be too bad luck.
Looking up at the sky, it is still dark above the head, but there is a faint light on the horizon.
A star in his previous life once said a line, "It will be beautiful after dawn."
After adjusting his court clothes, Li Qinzai boarded the carriage without saying a word.
The carriage moved forward, and the wheels made a squeaking sound that echoed slowly in the quiet and deserted Suzaku Street.
When the carriage reached Taipingfang, the carriage suddenly stopped.
Li Qinzai, who was sitting in the carriage, frowned but did not move.
Outside the carriage, a strange voice suddenly came.
"By order, Weinan County Marquis Li Qinzai is not allowed to enter the palace to attend the court meeting today!"
In the carriage, Li Qinzai still didn't move, closing his eyes to rest.
Liu Asi outside the car shouted: "My young master has been granted the title of County Marquis. All officials in the capital above the sixth rank in the Shuowang Dynasty must attend the meeting. Why can't my young master?"
The voice continued: "I'm just following orders, what's the point of arguing with me? Please also ask the Marquis of Weinan County to turn around and return home."
Liu Asi's voice turned cold: "What if we don't go back home?"
"You can't get past Taipingfang!"
In the carriage, Li Qinzai opened his eyes. At this moment, he finally understood why Li Ji arranged for more than two hundred songs to follow.
There must have been rumors in the palace, but the person who blocked him was not necessarily Li Zhi, otherwise Li Ji would not have made such an obvious confrontational move.
The car curtain opened, Li Qinzai stood up and stood on the shaft of the car, looking at the person opposite him with a dull look.
Opposite him is a burly man with a full beard covering his facial features. You can't see his beauty or ugliness, but you can feel his fierce momentum.
There were hundreds of people standing behind him. They seemed to be standing in twos and threes, but everyone's expression and standing posture revealed a strong aura of murder.
Li Qinzai smiled. This group of people were all wearing ordinary civilian clothes, but if they were not military men, Li Qinzai would be willing to pluck out their eyeballs and stomp on them.
So Li Qinzai jumped off the carriage, and several tribesmen quickly protected him. Liu Asi came over and whispered: "Fifth Young Master, these people are not common people, they should be members of the army. Look at where they stand. , it is clearly a small formation of three or five people. Once we try to force our way through, a hundred or so small formations can immediately merge into a large formation to stop us."
Li Qinzai nodded, put aside the clothes in front of him, took a few steps forward, stared at the burly man at the head and said, "Who are you?"
The burly man pursed his lips and said nothing. With the situation in front of him, it would be too insulting to say that they were ordinary people. However, he could not tell his true identity. That would be trouble for himself, so he had to avoid answering.
Li Qinzai seemed to understand his mood, so he asked again: "Okay, let's change the question, whose order did you get to stop me here?"
The burly man sighed, clasped his fists and said, "The Marquis of Li County is famous all over the world, and I admire you deeply. I have no choice but to stop you today. I ask the Marquis of Li County to judge the situation and return home on your own. It will be good for everyone."
Li Qinzai looked at him and said with a smile: "You can be considered an upright man. It is not a husband's behavior to hide your head and show your tail."
"The villain is just a nobody, not worth mentioning."
Li Qinzai's eyes darkened, pointing in the direction of the dark Tai Chi Palace, and said, "I have to attend the court meeting today. If I force my way in, will you kill me?"
The burly man looked troubled and hesitated for a long time, but then he answered the question inappropriately: "The Emperor does not want Marquis Li to attend today's court meeting."
"I am the Marquis of Weinan County. As long as the emperor does not issue a decree to remove my title, I am qualified to enter the palace and attend court. If you stop me, you will be violating the national law. Are you sure you want to stop me?"
The burly man struggled, but in the end he gritted his teeth, took two steps back, bowed and clasped his fists, saying, "I did this as ordered. I'll forgive you, Marquis Li, but again, as long as I'm here today, you can't pass Taipingfang. If you want to force your way in, please forgive me for offending."
