Chapter 1162 The Behavior of the Head of a Family

There are many scumbag men, scumbag women, and scumbag things in the imperial family.

And it has been like this since ancient times.

Deep affection is a genetic defect for the imperial family, the kind of malignant gene that needs to be eliminated.

Therefore, being hurt by the imperial family in love is purely deserved.

Isn't it deserved to ask for something they don't have?

After Wu Mei left, the giant bear came to Li Zhi and opened its mouth to eat lychees. Li Zhi gave it to him, so the giant bear ate a whole tree of lychees.

The lychee trees sent by Yun Chu were actually not big. They were mainly for easy transportation. The root system was not too developed, so there would not be too many fruits on the tree.

After Li Zhi asked people to weigh the cost of transporting lychees from Shuzhong to Luoyang, he planned to eat this season's lychees and not eat them in the future. The waste was too shocking.

This time, Yunchu sent the civilians from Shu back to Chang'an in advance, so that there were enough people to do this. If it was just for a bite of lychee, Li Zhi would not be able to eat it even though it was delicious.

Yunchu sent a little less, which was what Li Zhi criticized.

It is easy to know where the remaining 300 lychee trees went.

Yunchu's monk father must send 100 trees, and the emperor is not easy to care about it. He is only Yunchu's emperor. Although the emperor is the father of the people of the world, he is not the father after all.

Yunchu's Taoist master must send 100 trees, and the emperor can understand it. After all, competing with the old immortal for lychee trees may be cursed by the world.

Li Zhi felt that there was a lot of room for discussion about sending 100 lychee trees to his wife, but who said he was a king in a prosperous era, so he still had some tolerance.

One hundred trees for the emperor, one hundred for the empress, and one hundred for the prince. It's not fair to say, but Yunchu said in the letter that his body is somewhat incompatible with lychees, so it's not good to eat too much.

Thinking of this, Li Zhi smacked his lips and said to Ruichun: "Who did the prince invite to the lychee banquet?"

Ruichun immediately said: "Almost all the civil and military officials in the court were invited."

Li Zhi said curiously: "Almost, then who was not invited?"

Ruichun said: "The Wu brothers and many scholars from the North Gate."

Li Zhi thought for a while and said: "Then send another fifty lychee trees to the East Palace."

When Ruichun took the order and left, Li Zhi said again: "Send another thirty trees to the empress, so that there won't be enough lychees for her lychee banquet."

Ruichun looked up at the emperor and saw that he had no other instructions, so he backed out of Ziwei Palace and left in a hurry.

Li Zhi did not keep the remaining lychees, and distributed one to each of the concubines in the harem, and many people did not get any.

After distributing the lychees, Li Zhi felt relieved. He wiped his right eye, which was always oozing pus, with a handkerchief, sighed slightly, and led the giant bear to the depths of Ziwei Palace.

"God shouldn't treat me like this..." Li Zhi said to the giant bear in the deepest tower.

Crown Prince Li Hong disdained lychees.

Crown Princess Pei wanted to hang herself on the lychee tree, but Li Hong didn't even have the interest to look at her.

So, when the Crown Princess became weak and pale because of eating too many lychees, Li Hong didn't even have the interest to look at her. It's said that eating too much of anything is not good. The Crown Princess didn't even have this little restraint, which made people laugh.

Xu Jingzong became more and more energetic as he got older. Perhaps it was because he passed the 84th year. A lock of the old guy's hair magically turned black. Everyone said it was a sign of rejuvenation, and Xu Jingzong thought so even more.

He no longer locked himself up in the deep palace, wandering around the East Palace all day long, and took the initiative to attend several court meetings. He looked very energetic.

The prince secretly asked Naha to help him ask the old immortal if he really regained his youth. The old immortal replied that he was dying.

Although he didn't know why the old immortal answered like this, Li Hong still believed it. No one had a better say than the old immortal in longevity.

Xu Jingzong ate thirty lychees in one breath, and then sat on the dung bucket for a day. After a day, he couldn't sit still anyway, so he gave up his dignity and slept and defecated there. Three days later, when Li Hong went to see him again, he found that Xu Jingzong's black hair had turned white, and he was so thin that he had lost his human form.

"Yun Chu has misled me!"

Hearing Xu Jingzong say this, Li Hong could only sigh.

The old immortal got a hundred lychee trees, but he only ate three or five, and the rest were given to Prince Ji Li Shen and Naha, as well as the doctors of the Imperial Hospital.

Master Xuanzang got a hundred lychee trees, and it is said that he only ate three, and the rest were given to the monks in Da Ci'en Temple and the good men and women who offered a lot of money. The lychees on the tree that Master Xuanzang did not eat all went into the mouths of Yunjin, Yunluan, and Yunguanguan.

The Yun family ate lychees from two of the hundred lychee trees that Yun got, and the rest were distributed to five per family, all over Chang'an.

Only Xu Jingzong ate thirty lychees in one meal, and ate away the signs of his rejuvenation, which really could not be blamed on others.

Li Hong was a man who respected his teachers. Although Xu Jingzong was now half dead, he still came to visit him every day and served him medicine.

As for the common people, everyone knew that lychees were delicious, but they didn't know what they tasted like. Only the officials and businessmen from Sichuan and Lingnan had more topics to talk about during their gatherings.

Yun Chu continued to lead the army through the forests and mountains. In order to speed up the march, Yun Chu even left all the gunpowder carried by the army at Jianmen Pass when passing by, and handed it over to the garrison commander Yao Hong.

This was not a private gift, but there was this item in the emperor's decree. The gunpowder of the Tang Dynasty was not very stable and often exploded during transportation. Many people died and injured in the transportation of gunpowder every year.

Even so, there were still only two gunpowder workshops in the Tang Dynasty, one in Chang'an and the other in Luoyang.

The border generals petitioned the emperor more than once, hoping to build gunpowder workshops in various parts of the Tang Dynasty. The emperor did not agree, and also issued an order to reprimand those border generals who wanted to build gunpowder workshops in their own territory, and sent an envoy to kill the border general who made the most fierce suggestion.

Since then, no one dared to talk about building gunpowder workshops in other places.

Not only the gunpowder was left to Yao Hong, the commander of Jianmen Pass, but also two thousand sets of armor in the army were left to Yao Hong, and two thousand broken armors that Yao Hong had withdrawn were taken away.

Yun Chu had calculated that after passing Jianmen Pass, he would have nothing to do with Shuzhong, and after entering Jianmen Pass, he would have nothing to do with Guanzhong.

Therefore, Jianmen Pass is a real gate, a gate that can control the entry and exit of Guanzhong and Shuzhong.

If Yun Chu had second thoughts, he should have planned Jianmen Pass at this time, so as to avoid the difficult terrain here.

After passing Lizhou, the road gradually became flat. Li Si rode a horse and kept wandering in front of Yun Chu, sometimes even leaning down from the horse's back to grab the wild flowers on the ground.

Yun Chu certainly knew what she meant, but he didn't want to pay attention to her at this time. When he returned to Chang'an, it would be difficult for Li Si to pass Yu Xiurong's gate. Yu Xiurong had the final say on matters in the inner house.

The statue of Wu Mei in the Lizhou Big Buddha Temple is now in tatters and has not been carved any more. When the Lizhou Hundred Cavalry Division heard that Yunchu's army was coming again, they all went to the distant Bazhou to do business. It is estimated that they will not be able to return within two or three months.

Tomorrow, they will start crossing the Qinling Mountains. Yunchu plans to rest for five days under the Qinling Mountains.

After setting up camp, Yunchu and Jiang Xie went to see He Jingxiong and Li Yuance. Jiang Xie saw He Jingxiong seriously telling Li Yuance that "the tiger wants to eat him".

And Li Yuance smiled and replied, "I eat that."

It felt very harmonious, and the two people's faces were full of sincerity. For a moment, it was hard to say whether the two people were crazy.

Yun Chu sighed and said to Jiang Xie: "Give me some face, don't go crazy."

Jiang Xie said: "Do you think these two people are playing crazy?"

Yun Chu looked at the naive He Jingxiong and Li Yuance and said: "What does it matter whether it is true or not? They clearly don't want to talk to me properly. If they are crazy, I can't kill them. Otherwise, I'm afraid I won't be able to explain to His Majesty when I get to Luoyang."

Jiang Xie laughed and said: "In this case, pretending to be crazy is really a good way to violate military regulations."

Yun Chu said: "It's a pity that these two people's achievements of thousands of miles away in the southwest are gone, and I don't know why they did this."

Jiang Xie saw Yun Chu's helpless face, and said on the side: "Don't worry, Marshal, I didn't find anything wrong in this southwest battle. We have completed all the military duties assigned by His Majesty. His Majesty didn't explain. We have also done all the work of pacifying the southwest.

If they don't want the credit, that's their business. I don't believe they can say anything wrong about the general in front of His Majesty. "

Yun Chu shook his head and said, "Rewards are inevitable when you return victoriously. The problem is that the criticisms of the ministers will also follow, and not all generals who return victoriously can escape unscathed."

Jiang Xie said, "Isn't there still a general here? Your Majesty will definitely not listen to their one-sided words."

Yun Chu nodded and said, "Okay, I'll ask you to say good things for me when the time comes."

Jiang Xie nodded as a matter of course, "This is natural."

Yun Chu looked up at the misty Qinling Mountains in front of him and said to himself, "How can there be so many natural things?"

Li Si walked into Yun Chu's tent again, carefully holding a red lacquered wooden tray with a bowl of soup on it, steaming and looking like it had just come out of the pot.

"Aye, this is the chicken soup I just made. It's for you to nourish your body."

Yun Chu took the chicken soup and drank it, but she didn't say anything to Li Si. She drank the soup in a few mouthfuls, picked out the chicken meat and ate it, then threw the soup bowl into the wooden plate and continued to do her own things.

Li Si packed up the soup bowl with tears in her eyes and left the big tent silently. Today, Aye still didn't want to talk to her.
