new year banquet
Relying on his good health and drinking heavily, Lao Li successfully defeated two old drunkards and hooligans, Cheng Yaojin and Yuchi Jingde.
The two old hooligans also performed a wonderful repertoire at the last moment. After drinking too much, they performed a full martial arts show while shirtless.
Most of the officials from the state and provincial governments have seen it, only a few newly promoted ones have not.
They only dared to look at them, not dare to laugh. They were two strong men who were as big as a hill. Their arms were thicker than their thighs. Such violent men had much higher official titles than them, so they couldn't be offended.
For Li Mingda, who was used to seeing romantic action movies, they were used to this kind of thing, and he and Murong Xue were eating and drinking as they pleased.
Wu Jue and Zheng Wanli pointed at the curious babies, while Xu Hui said that I was just watching.
Xiaoxiao was calculating the hardness of the muscles of the two people, the body fat degree, and where to perform the surgery. She was mumbling this, which scared Liuli who was waiting for Li Mingda on the side.
The eldest grandson also curiously leaned over and listened for a while, and then expressed shock at Xiaoxiao's statement, but also a little uncomfortable. After all, such a cute little baby was actually planning on how to disembowel him.
It feels a bit inconsistent.
After the banquet was over, Li Mingda took his family members back to the Imperial Study Room and told them to go to bed. Li Mingda and Murong Xue, two guys who drank a lot, added the skewers next to the small charcoal stove in the Imperial Study Room and continued. Talk while eating.
Murong Xue: "Gouzi, do you think this year's banquet is too plain?"
Li Mingda: "Xiaobai, what do you want? There are so many licking dogs for you to bully."
Murong Xue looked unhappy: "I couldn't help but beat me, and I was killed by a cannon."
Li Mingda: "Let me stay as a human being so that I can continue to bully me in the next life."
Murong Xue: "Gouzi, your statement is a bit off-putting. Think about it, you will have to be beaten in the next life. Tsk, tsk, my kebabs are a bit burnt."
Li Mingda patted Murong Xue on the head: "I'm sorry you didn't watch the fire carefully. Do you think Wei Yan caught an odd number or an even number of dishonest guys today?"
Murong Xue raised the skewers in her paws and counted them: "Odd number"
Li Mingda: "Aren't you going to change it?"
Murong Xue put a string in her mouth: "Let's count it evenly."
Li Mingda nodded: "If you don't change it, you'll be a puppy if you change it again."
Murong Xue looked at the even number of skewers in her hand and stuffed them all into her mouth: "Hmph, you're going to set me up again, I believe you, you bad old man is very bad."
Seeing that Murong Xue was not fooled, Li Mingda sighed: "Hey, could it be that my level of deception has decreased?"
Murong Xue looked proud: "It's because we are smarter."
Li Mingda rubbed Murong Xue's head: "Yes, you are smart and follow the fox, go back to sleep."
Murong Xue looked nervous and hugged her: "What are you going to do? I'm still a baby."
"Bah, you are an experienced train driver, you are such a bastard, go to hell."
Murong Xue looked disappointed: "Whatever you say about wanting to get married is actually just to give up your strength early, hahahaha."
Li Mingda patted Murong Xue's butt: "Little sister, go and wash your hands. I will let you know tonight what it means that my majesty cannot be violated."
Murong Xue walked away with her head held high with disdain on her face.
Wei Yan came back soon.
"Meet the Lord"
Li Mingda: "How many dishonest children are there?"
Wei Yan: "Henan, Hedong, Hebei, and Lingnan are the four"
Li Mingda rubbed his chin. The first three of these four are the private lands of noble princes from aristocratic families. The official who took office said that Lao Li took the photos. In fact, they are the product of compromise. Lingnan is too far away from Chang'an City and is beyond reach. Come on, even if the Jinyiwei are fierce, their earthly emperors are worthy of their reputation.
Li Daliang of Sichuan, that is, Jiannan, did not let him come because he always wanted to suppress Tubo. However, in order to appease him, Li Mingda asked Lao Li to write to him personally, and secretly gave him some Dali Pills to make him more of the Tang Dynasty. Contribute to the stability of the southwest, free up your own hands, okay, the Japanese island country and the sticks will deal with it first.
"These are all expected, so what did they talk about?"
Wei Yan collected his thoughts and answered Li Mingda: "There are those who envy His Majesty Taizong for getting younger, and they also want to become immortals. There are also those who are guessing about your true identity, and there are also those who want to recruit concubines for you."
Recruiting a concubine?
This surprised Li Mingda a little.
Li Mingda asked Wei Yan: "Are they planning to find little girls for me all over the world?"
Wei Yan shook his head: "They said they were recruiting male concubines for His Majesty."
puff
Li Mingda spit out a sip of wine: "These people are so full that they need to recruit a male concubine for me. Damn!"
Turning around and thinking again, Li Mingda revealed a cruel smile: "Don't worry about them, let them do it behind their backs. I have a way to make them eat this chocolate-like shit themselves."
Wei Yan actually thought of Li Mingda's intention to flatter him: "My lord is wise."
Li Mingda was very impressed: "You have been working hard for a few days." He pointed to the seat next to him: "Sit down and drink some wine with me and eat some skewers."
Wei Yan was excited for a while: "Thank you sir, but I still have to patrol the palace."
Wei Yan had a job. Li Mingda scanned around and saw Zhang Nan hiding half of his body behind the pillar.
Li Mingda shouted: "Zhang Nan, stop hiding behind the pillars and go inspect the palace."
Zhang Nan walked out from behind the pillar with a sad face, and then looked at Wei Yan: "Young man, let's go right now. Look at the New Year, is it okay?"
Li Mingda pointed to his small charcoal stove: "After inspecting the jade, I allow you and Yu Xiaoqian to eat and drink here. It's all mine."
"No~!"
Zhang Nan took over Wei Yan's job and walked to the door to greet people: "Young men, come with Master Zhang to inspect the palace."
Wei Yan was stunned. Although he knew Zhang Nan's character, it seemed that he was too much today.
Li Mingda greeted Wei Yan: "Okay, don't be in a daze, let's chat while we eat."
Wei Yan was inconvenient to sit and stand due to the heavy armor he was wearing, so Li Mingda asked the guards on the side to help him take off his outer armor.
Wei Yan was a little reserved at first, but gradually became more lively as he drank a few glasses of wine with Li Mingda.
Li Mingda: "Chang Wen, do you want to lead troops to fight in all directions?"
Wei Yan: "Think"
Li Mingda patted Wei Yan on the shoulder and said sincerely: "Now I am short of handsome talents who can take charge of my own job. I also want to send you out early. Wait until summer is over and I plan to let you take over Zhang's place. Fei was stationed in Jingzhou"
"Work hard, Wei Yan, who came up with the surprise attack on Ziwu Valley, will achieve greater glory in this new moment."
Jingzhou is an important town in the south of the Yangtze River. Li Mingda asked him to go, which showed that he had a high level of trust.
Wei Yan immediately knelt down on the ground and said solemnly to Li Mingda: "I, Wei Yan, will definitely live up to your lord's trust."
