Sun Simiao sat down and took out two wine glasses and said, "I have only prepared two cups."

Pour wine into the two cups, Sun Simiao looked at Li Zheng and said, "I don't know if you guys will come, so I didn't prepare your wine glass."

Seeing these two old guys smiling proudly, I felt like I was being teased.

Li Zheng, who put on his hat again, left the pavilion and walked home. On the way, he heard several villagers in the village discussing the upstream. What people were most worried about during the rains for days was the situation in the river.

When he returned home, Li Zheng was sitting in the study.

The home was much warmer, and Xu Hui brought clean clothes and whispered: "Chang'an Order, please replace the wet clothes."

Li Zheng did not shy away when changing clothes. Although he only changed a coat, Xu Hui still lowered her head and refused to look at it.

After changing his clothes, Li Zheng handed the wet coat to Xu Hui.

After taking the clothes, Xu Hui gave it to the maid outside, and brought another bowl of ginger soup, "Chang'an Ling's ginger soup, be careful to catch a cold."

Seeing Li Zheng taking the ginger soup and drinking it slowly, following Li Zheng's gaze, he was looking at a small vegetable field in the corner of the yard outside the window.

Li Zheng whispered: "The vegetables we planted this year are growing well."

"Um."

Xu Hui nodded, Li Zheng used us here, not me.

This is how the master rarely tells us to his subordinates.

This has always been Li Zheng's style of conduct.

As a princess maid, she should take care of the life of the princess and the prince-consort, but Li Zheng has always regarded everyone as half of his family, and the distinction between master and servant is very weak.

If you are in another powerful family, then you will be the servant who is below you.

After Li Zheng finished drinking the ginger soup, Xu Hui took the empty bowl and left in a small step. In another room in the quiet home, Princess Changle and Wu Mei were holding the account book to settle the accounts.

Xu Hui was washing dishes under the eaves with rainwater, and a maid came to report.

As the maid whispered, Xu Hui came to Li Zheng's study again and saw Li Zheng reading a book and whispered: "Chang'an Order, Your Majesty, I'm saying that I'm waiting for you in the horse circle."

Putting down the book in his hand troubledly, Li Zheng looked up at the window, and it was still raining outside.

After picking up the hat again, Li Zheng walked out of the room. The house was very quiet at this time, and Xiao Yizi and Li Zhi were both attending classes in the academy.

Walking back into the rain, a gust of wind blew, and the coldness penetrated through my clothes. My clothes are too cold these days.

Dahu was already standing at the door waiting.

"Chang'an Order, Your Majesty is in the horse circle."

Following Dahu all the way, Li Zheng frowned and asked, "Has he said anything?"

Dahu shook his head and said, "I didn't say anything, I just asked Bei Zhi to pass the message."

When he reached the horse ring, the rain became heavier. Li Zheng glanced at the horse ring. The horses were all under the shack, and it was fine.

Wang Ding stood outside the cabin in the horse circle and said with a smile: "Chang'an Order, Your Majesty is inside."

"I have to say that Eunuch Wang's complexion is getting better and better."

After Li Zheng said that, he walked into the house.

Li Shimin sat cross-legged on a blanket eating mutton skewers.

Li Zheng also sat down by the mud stove, and there was a mutton on the iron rack still sizzling oil.

After eating a skewer of mutton, Li Shimin coughed.

Wang Ding, who was standing outside, closed the door very understandingly.

The room was a little dark, but the fire from the stove could barely see the other person's expression.

Li Zheng tightened his clothes and said, "It's so cold."

Li Shimin whispered: "The officials from all over Guanzhong have come to report it. There is no big deal and it will generally not affect the harvest this year. The rain will stop after another two or three days."

Li Zheng sprinkled some chili powder on the mutton skewers on the shelf, "I've tasted a lot lately."

Li Shimin picked up a skewer of mutton skewers sprinkled with chili powder and said, "The medical officer of the Imperial Medical Office said that eating some chili in this weather is good for the body and can also drive away the cold."

Li Zheng was eating mutton skewers quietly, not wanting to pay attention to him.

Li Shimin whispered: "The Li Xiaogong you mentioned has already told me."

Li Zheng ate a bunch and picked up another bunch.

"As you said, Japan helped the Tang Dynasty conquer Goguryeo. If it had to deal with Japan afterwards, would it seem like the Tang Dynasty destroyed the bridge across the river?"

Li Zheng sighed and said to Li Shimin: "Your Majesty, what do we say? Please help us deal with Goguryeo together?"

Li Shimin thought for a while, "It seems that this is true."

Li Zheng picked up another mutton and said, "First, our Tang Dynasty never officially said that we wanted Japan to help our Tang Dynasty attack Goguryeo. Second, even if Japan helped the Tang Dynasty take Goguryeo, it had nothing to do with us. Everything was made up of Japan."

Li Shimin nodded and continued to say.

After eating another skewer, Li Zheng picked up his thermos and drank a sip of hot water and said, "All this is the speculation of the Japanese people themselves. What they do has nothing to do with us."

Li Shimin looked at Li Zheng suspiciously, "You kid is really sinister."

"It's too much." Li Zheng sat cross-legged and said, "It's not us to let Japan attack Goguryeo. Although Japan worships the Tang Dynasty as the Shang Kingdom, the Tang Dynasty has always advocated peace."

"Peace?"

Li Shimin's expression became more and more bizarre.

Li Zheng smiled meaningfully.

After thinking for a while, Li Shimin's expression became much clearer, "That's why you asked Xu Jingzong to approach the prince of Japan, and every time it was just right. Every time it was not chatting for too long, not too long, everything was just right."

"The turbulence in Chang'an really cannot escape His Majesty's eyes."

"You Li Zheng is planning and you can count everything in detail."

The king and his minister in the room smiled tacitly.

Li Shimin stood up and said, "How sure are you? The Japanese will definitely send troops to attack Goguryeo."

Li Zheng sighed and said, "I don't have much confidence."

Seeing that Li Shimin was going to ask, Li Zheng hurriedly said, "But after finishing the Goguryeo business, it's time to go to Japan."

When he went to Tubo, the Western Turks fought a big battle with Tubo. Now he has gone to Goguryeo. According to Li Zheng's plan, he still wants to go to Japan.

Li Shimin walked to the door and said with his back: "It seems that Japan has a tragic fate."

Li Zheng sat upright and said, "It's good news for His Majesty."

"I know you won't help me for nothing." Li Shimin nodded and said.

"There is a silver mine in Japan." Li Zheng said.

"You can get as much as you want in Japan's silver mine, but I won't give you any rewards afterwards." Li Shimin said.

"Is this considered a discount on the reward? Are we sharing the spoils?"

Li Shimin: "I..."

The room was quiet for a while.
