Li Zhi, don't be a coward

Chapter 1428 (Wrong number of chapters)
Li Qinzai has never been a serious person. Even if the father and son talked about such a serious topic as "ambition", it would be difficult for him to keep a straight face and talk to his son in a serious manner like an old scholar.

Other people's lives, other people's ambitions, are other people's, and your biological son is also someone else's.

As long as he doesn't commit murder, arson, or commit any evil, he doesn't need to interfere with his son's future, and he can do whatever he wants.

It's the kind of film and television drama where people sit on their knees facing each other solemnly, with a holy light on their faces and ask, "May I ask you, sir, your ambitions?"

Here’s the answer: “My ambition is to contain the universe and absorb heaven and earth…”

Embarrassed or not?
If you are so powerful, why don't you ascend where you are? Why bother harming the world?

Regarding Qiao'er's ambition, Li Qinzai had no intention of intervening or opposing it.

"It's a good thing to travel. After the Tang Dynasty Navy discovers the New World, you can land in the second and third batches by boat. It's a barbaric land. You can have no taboos. My only requirement for you is to bring enough people. Home The middle song cannot be left for a moment."

Qiao'er was stunned for a moment, then her face was full of surprise.

He just said it tentatively, but he didn't expect that Li Qinzai actually agreed.

After all, in the eyes of the elders, Qiao'er's ambition is not doing anything serious. They say it is "traveling", but in fact it is just traveling around. A man who is determined to always do something serious, how can he travel around?If it were any other elder, the spit would fly to his face.

Qiao'er knew that Li Qinzai had always been open-minded, but he didn't expect that Li Qinzai was so open-minded.

"My dear, thank you dad for helping me." Qiao'er stood up and bowed to express his thanks.

Li Qinzai said with a smile: "While traveling, think about life seriously. You can't travel all your life and come back when you have thought clearly."

"If there are any of your incompetent brothers who are willing to go with you, you can also call them together. This can be regarded as a benefit for their parents and let them relax."

Qiao'er nodded excitedly, then turned around and ran away, not forgetting to grab the messy homework books before leaving.

Li Qinzai stared at Qiao'er's back, suddenly feeling a lot more emotional.

The children have grown up, but I seem to be old.

The young eagle leaves the nest, takes a test shot in the sky, repeats the old path that the elders have walked, and stumbles through life again.

The meaning of life is probably the inheritance of this moment.

…………

In the backyard study.

Li Ji and Li Qinzai sat speechless.

Perhaps because he has lived two lifetimes, Li Qinzai prefers to get along with the elderly. In the few time he has left, he spends more time with him and listens to some life experiences.

Li Qinzai is definitely a person who listens to advice. Li Ji said there is a pit ahead, don't step on it, but Li Qinzai will definitely not step on it and will decisively avoid it.

After growing up to a certain age, the unruly and disobedient spirit in people's bones will slowly fade away and turn into a new attitude towards life.

Be cautious, rational, calm, and fear heaven, earth and truth.

The study was very quiet, and the grandfather and grandson didn't really have much to talk about.

Usually Li Ji is holding a book of war, while Li Qinzai is looking around to see if there is anything valuable in the study that can be taken away.

Isn’t it natural for a grandson to pick up his grandfather’s wool?After a long time, Li Ji put down the book helplessly and sighed: "My study is already in poverty, and you have taken away the only valuable white jade paperweight. What else do you want to do?"

Li Qinzai turned his back to him, rummaging around in the bookcase, but said, "That's not necessarily true. Grandpa, you are a famous general, and a soldier is very cunning. Maybe you have hidden something valuable..."

Li Ji became increasingly helpless and sighed: "That's you... If it had been Li Jingye, one of his legs would have been broken by now."

Li Qinzai also sighed: "Grandpa, what you said is wrong. My cousin Jingye is the future British Duke and is destined to inherit your title. My grandson can't inherit anything. I have to take advantage of your old and strong years to get something valuable quickly." It’s a good thing, otherwise you won’t be able to get anything in the future…”

Sun Tzu has long been familiar with this virtue, and now he can no longer get angry.

After searching for a long time, Li Qinzai found nothing valuable, so he gave up and sat listlessly in front of Li Ji.

Li Ji smiled gleefully, then his face straightened, and he said slowly: "The land issue in Jiangnan is a long-term process, but after your trip to Jiangnan, you solved a major event for the emperor, which at least made a good start. If nothing else happens, The emperor will surely reward you."

Li Qinzai said uninterestedly: "What kind of reward?"

Li Ji looked at him with a smile, and with deep pride in his eyes, he stroked his beard and said: "If you are less than 30 years old, if you are promoted to the title of Duke, I don't know if you can bear it."

Li Qinzai was startled and said in surprise: "Will the emperor make me the Duke of the country?"

Li Ji hummed and said, "If nothing else happens, there may be a court meeting at the end of this year."

After a pause, Li Ji looked at his face and said, "Perhaps you don't even know how much trouble you have solved for the Tang Dynasty during your trip to the south of the Yangtze River."

"The problem of land annexation has become more and more serious since the Zhenguan period. The emperor and the court have been unable to come up with an effective solution. The problem has become increasingly serious. If it continues for a long time, within two generations, the world will be full of landless refugees, and the court will have no available soldiers. The fate of the country is at stake. It will gradually decline.”

"And you, at this time, turned the tide and solved such a big trouble for the emperor. To be honest, this achievement is no less than the victory of the Eastern Expedition. It is not too much to be promoted to the title of Duke."

Li Ji stroked his beard and looked at him, the smile in his eyes getting deeper and deeper: "You are a Duke who is less than 30 years old and the Tang Dynasty has never been heard of, but you have set a precedent, and my Li family will be the same from now on." He is a well-deserved double master, haha!"

Li Qinzai's expression was neither surprised nor happy.

He still had the same original intention as before, and he did not have much ambition for official titles. Even if Li Zhi was promoted to the title of Duke of another country, he would not feel too happy.

So what if the Duke of the country eats from a bigger bowl than others?Is your head stronger than others?
In the ordinary life of eating and waiting to die, does the title of the Duke of the country affect his eating, drinking and defecation?

After thinking about it carefully, apart from increasing the official honor guard and spending more money, there doesn't seem to be much benefit...

Then Li Qinzai suddenly looked at Li Ji warily: "After my grandson is promoted to Duke, does grandpa want to kick me out and live in another place?"

"I'm telling you, it's impossible. Get over it as soon as possible. Grandpa's palace is much richer than my grandson's dilapidated mansion. Before my cousin Jieye inherited the title, my grandson has been living here. Anyway, our ancestors and grandsons are all Dukes. , the royal guards of honor in the mansion can be shared, and you can save your life if you can."

Li Ji's good mood was immediately ruined, and his white beard stood up in anger.

Just as he was about to pick up the cool weapon in the room and give the evildoer a hard blow, he suddenly heard a female voice coming from outside the study.

"Daughter-in-law Zhao Daoyun, please see Master Aweng."

The grandfather and grandson in the study were startled and looked at each other quickly.

Zhao Daoyun was the concubine of Li Qinzai's father Li Siwen. She had been here for several years. She was mysterious and had no sense of existence. Her grandfather and grandson had already seen her identity clearly, but there was no need to say it clearly.

Everyone was living a peaceful life, but now they suddenly asked to see Li Ji. Apparently something was wrong.
