Datang: My father is the head bodyguard

Li Shimin sat back on the throne, and the ministers also handed the treasure notes in their hands to Wang De's hands and stood in a row.

"Tell me, what reward does the British Lord want from me?" Li Shimin was still feeling for the treasure in his dragon robe.

Yuchi Baoqi thought for a while: "Why don't you reward me with some money? My family is already too poor to even eat porridge with pickles."

All the ministers burst into laughter, but only Wang Gui looked normal. Li Shimin even laughed heartily: "Who doesn't know that the British public has a lot of wealth and has countless workshops in Zhuangzi. The glaze workshop alone has an income of 50 to [-] taels a year, not to mention the day and night workers. It’s a cement workshop.”

Yuchi Baoqi sighed. Unexpectedly, Wang Gui was the first to leave work.

"My lord, Wang Gui, the Minister of Rites, has something to report. It concerns the marriage between Princess Changle and the British Duke."

Li Shimin's heart skipped a beat and he asked anxiously, "How about the marriage?"

Wang Gui sent officials from the Ministry of Rites to place a cylinder in the Tai Chi Hall and then tip it down.

"Your Majesty, this is the gift list handed over by the Yuchi Mansion for marrying Princess Changle. I am very frightened."

Yuchi Baoqi and Yuchi Jingde covered their faces with their hands: "Wang Gui, why are you bringing this matter up in the court?"

At Li Shimin's signal, Wang De pushed away the gift list that looked like a millstone.

"Today, the eldest son of Yuchi Jingde, the British Duke Yuchi Baoqi, gave the following gift list to marry Princess Changle. 4000 million copper coins, [-] kilograms of gold, [-] kilograms of silver, more than one million tons of steel, a glaze workshop, a cement workshop, a winery workshop, There are five soap workshops each..."

Wang De felt that he could never finish reading this gift list in his life, so he raised his head and looked at Li Shimin asking for help. Li Shimin was already stunned. This sky-high gift list was unheard of and unseen.

"Ahem, black face? Did you do this job?" Li Shimin finally managed to choke out a sentence.

Yuchi Baoqi felt a touch of sadness: "My mother's plastic surgery is a unique skill."

Li Shimin stepped down from the throne and looked at the gift list: "It's all easy to explain. Are these ebony and golden nan doors the same ones as those in Yuchi's house? Your mother doesn't even want the door panels? Why don't you call your mother here? Ask?"

Yuchi Jingde suddenly felt like a ghost, shaking like a small vibrating toy: "No, no, no, your Majesty, even if you want to call her a bitch, you must first tell her that it is none of my business. I have no doubts about her gift list, Don’t ever get involved with me!”

Yuchi Baoqi also crossed his arms, as if remembering a terrible fearful scene: "Yes, yes, I have nothing to do with you. If the money is gone, you can earn more, but if your life is gone, it is really gone."

Li Shimin saw that the father and son, who were originally fearless and spoke freely, suddenly changed their temper. He arranged for Wang De to go and bring Su, and he was careful not to say that these two people had any complaints.

After a while, Su arrived at the Tai Chi Hall and was about to salute when she was stopped by Li Shimin.

"Ms. Su, did you draw up this gift list? Is there something wrong with such a huge amount?"

Mrs. Su gave a blessing: "My husband returns to your majesty, and he doesn't want to, but Princess Changle calls me mother-in-law."

Wei Zheng had a dark line: "If I call you mother-in-law, you will empty out your entire family and marry Princess Changle?"

Su Shi's eyes squinted: "You are an old coffin who is half buried in the earth. Why do I just spoil my daughter-in-law? It's none of your business! You don't have many teeth anymore, so shut your mouth quickly!"

Just as Wei Zheng was about to explode, Yuchi Baoqi covered his mouth: "Mr. Wei, although you and I don't usually deal with each other, I don't want to see Mr. Wei's blood splattered on the spot. I'll bear it for a while."

Su's ears were very sharp, and Yuchi Baoqi's whisper was caught in his ears: "Master Wei, Master Wei, right? You scolded Princess Changle for not being polite before, but she told me all about it! I won't scold you today. The seven orifices produce smoke and the six Buddhas ascend to heaven. My surname is not Su!"

Yuchi Jingde cleared his throat: "Ahem, let me say a few words."

Su's immediate response was a critical blow: "What's the matter with you?"

Yuchi Jingde: "Okay." Then he hid behind Qin Qiong and continued to tremble.

Li Shimin stood in front of the Su family and whispered: "Mom, calm down. Wei Zheng is like a stone in the pit, smelly and hard. Just be kind and spare him."

Seeing that the situation was not good, Wang De secretly left the scene and was going to bring Princess Changle to Tai Chi Hall. Now she was the only one who could deal with the Su family.

Su used her hands to pull Li Shimin away: "Your Majesty, please step aside a little, otherwise I will squirt on you and it won't be nice. Old Dengxi, aren't you dissatisfied? Wait, Your Majesty, please step aside a little more."

"Mother-in-law! Why didn't you come to me when you came to the palace?" Li Lizhi arrived in time, and Li Shimin gave her a thumbs up.

When Su met Li Lizhi, she instantly transformed into a warm and kind mother-in-law and came to Li Lizhi's side.

"Have you had breakfast? Did you sleep well last night? His Majesty called me to come to the palace. I originally wanted to go talk to you and the Queen, but unexpectedly I met Mr. Wei Zheng who was waiting for me. male."

Li Shimin coughed twice and said: "Su and Li Zhi go to the Lizheng Hall to chat with the Queen. You will stay in the Lizheng Hall to eat today. I will not keep you in the Tai Chi Hall. Wang De! Find someone to take care of you." The gift list is sent to the Li Zheng Palace for the Empress to see."

When Yuchi Baoqi saw that his mother had finally left, he put down his hand covering Wei Zheng's mouth.

"Master Wei, I saved your life. You owe me two lives."

Wei Zheng was puzzled: "Why do I still owe you two for saving my life? Isn't it one?"

Yuchi Baoqi was about to cry but had no tears: "I saved you with my life, so who will save me? Alas, I will say yes after I die."

Li Shimin sat back on the throne and asked Yuchi Baoqi again what reward he wanted. Yuchi Baoqi suddenly had an idea.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, I have completed the development work of Baochao Division. All the confidentiality and security work can be left to Xuanjia Army and Baiqisi. Cheng Chumo, the producer, has done a good job, and the craftsmen brought by Qi Sheng are all Zhuangzi Shang Someone you can trust. Now that I am no longer needed as the director of the Baochao Department, I want to go to Luoyang to build ships."

"You just came back from Tubo, finished the work of the Baochao Department, and are going to Luoyang to build ships. Doesn't it seem that I am a bit too impersonal, not giving you any time to rest?" Li Shimin sighed, he used to be whipped Why did the unmotivated Yuchi Baoqi change her temper today?

Yuchi Baoqi almost cried: "I am just a brick of the Tang Dynasty. I can move it wherever it is needed! If Your Majesty does not agree with me to set off to Luoyang to build ships today, I will hit my head on this palace pillar and die! I will die!"

Li Shimin pointed at Yuchi Baoqi: "Look, look at the consciousness of the British Lord! Look at you again. His remonstrance is to ask me to send him to build ships, but your remonstration is to disobey my decision and make a judgment! How can I refuse?"

Yuchi Baoqi was on the verge of crying but had no tears: "Do I want to build a ship? I don't want to go back to my house and be hung up and beaten by my mother!"
