Datang Almighty Dad

Chapter 48 Who Says I Can't Afford It?

"Is there such a thing?"

In the Taiji Palace, Emperor Li Er was woken up late at night, and when he heard Li Junxian's report, he was furious.

"Investigate, order the Criminal Department, Dali Temple, and Wuhou of the whole city to mobilize collectively to search and arrest the culprit overnight. We must find out the murderer behind the scenes."

He sent 50 more guards to Li Junxian to guard the safety of the tavern day and night, and then Li Er sent his secret guards. He knew in his heart that since he was a dead man, it might not be enough to rely on the verification on the surface If it can be found out, it needs to be investigated secretly.

Li Junxian hurried back, his soldiers had just cleaned up the mess in the street.

"Shopkeeper, are the Supreme Emperor and Doudou not frightened?" Li Junxian asked worriedly, pulling Li Yuanying.

"It's okay, the two of them are sleeping soundly, and they don't even know."

At this time, a soldier came to report: "General Qi, we also found traces of the thieves setting fire at the back door of the tavern. It is obvious that this group of people is planning to destroy the house.

only……"

"Just what? Say it!" Li Junxian scolded.

"It's just strange. There are people putting out the fire at our front door, and the shopkeeper has a fire extinguisher, but there is no one putting out the fire at the back door. The door and wall of the tavern are not injured at all."

What happened?

Li Junxian looked at Li Yuanying puzzled, "Could it be that the tavern is miraculous, knowing that the dragon body of the Supreme Emperor is here, protected by the gods?"

Li Yuanying laughed loudly and said: "My tavern has been set up by an expert to prevent fire and theft. How can it be burned with ordinary fire? You don't have to worry. Thank you for your help tonight. I will bring my children here tomorrow. I will treat you to thank you. "

"The shopkeeper is being too polite. I have to be ordered to guard. It's all part of my job. I dare not take credit for it." Li Junxian declined.

Li Yuanying said grandly: "Everyone is a powerful general of the Tang Dynasty. You condescend to come to my tavern as guards. You are a family when you enter the tavern. You don't have to be polite. Call me the shopkeeper, and I have the final say on the tavern's affairs."

Hearing that Li Junxian stopped talking, his soldiers all praised the shopkeeper for his benevolence.

Someone shouted: "Shopkeeper, I'm not married yet, what should I do if I don't have children?"

Li Yuanying patted his forehead and added: "Ahem, I didn't think carefully, brother, forgive me, it's the same for those who have no children to invite parents. How about it, the tavern will be closed for a day tomorrow, and everyone will come with their parents, wives and children. Come."

If Old Li Yuan heard this sentence, he would probably faint with anger. Can you take care of the food and drink of so many people?Feelings are not your kid's reckoning, right?I haven't learned how to count yet.

Early the next morning, Li Yuan got up when he heard about the assassination last night, his heart broke out in a cold sweat, and secretly thought that it was very dangerous, if it wasn't for the miracle in this tavern, he might have been taken over by the villain.

He didn't even eat breakfast, Li Yuan carried a bag and went out with a dark face, probably going to the palace to settle accounts with his second son.

The sad emperor Li Er stayed up all night because of his father and fifth younger brother, but the two parties had sweet dreams as if nothing had happened.

"Father is frightened, and the guards are weak, please punish Father!" Li Er saluted Li Yuan respectfully with dark circles under his eyes.

Li Er snorted coldly, threw the bag in his hand in front of Li Er, and said in a cold voice: "I have an old life, if it is gone, it will be gone. You are at fault. The fault is that you did not protect Wulang well."

Li Er smiled wryly and said: "It's the same, the emperor father and the fifth younger brother have the same feeling in my son's heart, and it's because the son's protection is not effective."

Li Yuan reprimanded: "Stupid! Do you still remember what I told you at the beginning? Wulang is the biggest treasure of my Tang Dynasty. If you protect him, the future of my Tang Dynasty is limitless."

"Father, what you said..."

"Open that bag and have a look. If the thief succeeded last night, I'm afraid you will regret it for the rest of your life!"

With suspicion, Li Er opened the inconspicuous little bag. Inside were several round yellow balls, which he didn't recognize.

"Father, my son is not knowledgeable enough to recognize this thing. Is it a stone?" Li Er asked.

Stone?Thank goodness you figured it out.

Li Yuan said seriously: "What Wulang said is that this thing is originally a vegetable, but it can also be used as food, life-saving food. It was planted by Wulang himself. It is called potatoes. I don't have this thing in Tang Dynasty. I think it is only in the sky. Only then.

Yield per mu, yield per mu..."

Li Yuan trembled slightly with excitement, stretched out his right hand, and made a five.

Li Er exclaimed: "What? Five hundred catties?"

I bother!

Li Yuan hated that iron could not be made into steel, and wondered if he could still have this son?Just this kind of temperament?If not, come down and let Goro be the emperor.

"Five thousand catties! And at least!"

What? ? ?
Li Er couldn't stand still anymore, he stood on the spot blankly, his ears seemed to be buzzing like a thunderclap.

The high servant waiting in the corner was also trembling all over, and there was a huge wave in his heart. If there is such a thing in the world, there will be no people in the world who will starve to death.

After a while, Li Erping regained his composure and asked in a low voice, "Father, is it true?"

"I weighed the scale myself."

Hahahaha... God Bless Datang, God Bless Datang!
At this moment, Li Er was as happy as a child, sometimes mad and sometimes sober, sometimes laughing out loud, when he looked carefully, tears were already streaming down his face.

For the first time, without the order from above, Gao Neishi took the initiative to stride out of the gate of Taiji Palace, facing the morning sun, respectfully bowed to the sky, and shouted God bless Tang!Then all five bodies fell to the ground.

The Habayashi guards in front of the hall, although they don't know the situation, but according to the usual practice, they have to shout along, and it must be a great joy to let the high servant go out and shout.

So in an instant, the entire imperial palace echoed the voice of God bless Datang over and over again.

The whole city of Chang'an heard it, and the common people looked blank, wondering what's going on?Did the northern Turks retreat?But I didn't see the Babaili urgent military report.

When Li Er calmed down, Li Yuan went up and held the other party down and said, "Don't be happy so early, Wu Lang doesn't give these things for nothing, he said he would sell them to you, and I said on the spot, the treasury has no money, you can't afford it."

Um?What do you mean?
Li Er was taken aback.

Li Yuan explained: "That is to say, if there is no agreement, if you can't afford it, Goro won't sell it."

he dare?

Li Er said loudly, then remembered Li Yuanying's ability, and immediately lowered his tone, "He, how could he... I'll go find him."

"There's no need to go. It's useless to force me to die yesterday. Let's think about how to repay the debt. This thing is a priceless treasure. You can figure out how to give a fair price." Li Yuan stopped his son powerlessly.

Now it was time for Li Er to have a headache. He stood pacing back and forth in the Tai Chi Palace, muttering in his mouth: "This Wulang, knowing that I have no money, still insists on me buying it. The brothers are all for the Tang Dynasty. As long as he is willing to take out this thing, the throne can be given to him.

Um?throne?The throne...haha, there it is! "

Seeing Li Er clapping his hands and laughing, Li Yuan poured cold water on him and said, "Is this a crooked trick? Thank you for thinking it out. Is Wu Lang the kind of person who likes to work hard? If you give it to him, he will take it? Besides, do you think this is a child's play?"

Li Er explained wittily: "Father has misunderstood, and my son knows that Goro won't want it, so I only give him a vain job this time, without him having to work hard. I only enjoy the rights and don't have to work. As we mentioned earlier, Give him the title of King of Qin, the only King of Qin in the Tang Dynasty, the most honorable King of Qin who is hereditary and has the same status as the emperor!
I don't know if this unparalleled throne can afford this life-saving food? "

Li Er chuckled, his face full of confidence.

Li Yuan clapped his hands and praised, "Wonderful! I was going to make him king before, and you suggested to give him some military merits. Now it seems that it is fortunate that you didn't give it at that time, otherwise there is really no seal or reward. .”

"This addition to the throne is more useful than me as an emperor. I think he will be ashamed to propose a deal with me in the future. If there is another deal, my son will give up the throne to this kid. It is obvious that this country belongs to my own family. How can you make things difficult for my second elder brother?"
