"General Wang, then come and tell me and the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, who has merit and who has demerit? Don't be cunning!" The emperor looked at Wang Fu firmly.

Wang Fu felt uncomfortable all over, so he had to lower his head and said, "I thought that General Zuo Sanxiang, the General of the Expedition to the West, had made great achievements in exterminating the bandits, and that the Marching Commander, Guo Meng, had misappropriated food and grass!"

"I beg to differ! The Marching Sima Guo Meng distributed grain and grass to the Di people to spread His Majesty's holy virtue far and wide and influence the barbarians in all directions. The general who conquered the West was so happy that he had achieved great success. He provoked a war for no reason, and also gave the Di people what they had already given

If we take back the grain and grass, won't it make the world laugh at me, Daliang, for not keeping his word?"

The admonishing doctor Wen Yanru was at odds with Wang Fu again. Li Xiaofei secretly laughed and looked at Wang Fu who wanted to be angry but didn't dare.

"Have you ever fought in a war? Have you ever been to the border? Have you ever been in contact with the Di people? What kind of holy virtue spreads far and wide? It's just to excuse Guo Meng's stupid behavior! Those Di people thanked Heaven for giving them food and grass today.

After eating the food and grass tomorrow, we will come to the border to rob families and homes again! What is virtue? Beating them until they dare not have second thoughts is called virtue! Our strong bows, crossbows, and heavy armored cavalry are virtue!"

Tian Gangfeng, the head of the Ministry of War, immediately retorted and questioned Wen Yanru.

Wen Yanru was not in a hurry, and began to quote scriptures, saying that in the past Bo Qi cultivated virtue and Hu family came back, and that King Wen of Zhou conquered the world with his virtue, etc.

The emperor remained silent, like a bystander.

Before Tian Gangfeng could retort again, General Pei Yun of the left shouted: "Scholars are ruining the country! Without the bloody battles of Liang soldiers, a nerd like you who only talks and bites people would have been starved to death on the roadside. How could he still be in the court?"

The beast is barking like crazy!"

"General Zuo insults scholars and insults officials in the court. Isn't it too presumptuous! You must know that you can't rule the world immediately, and you have to rely on the scholars of the world to govern the country!" The right servant Xie Fanwen couldn't help it anymore.

Soon two factions formed in the court, one faction supported Zuo Sanxiang and the other supported Guo Meng. A few people remained silent and the emperor continued to watch.

The ministers' saliva splashed on their respective court uniforms. Pei Yun and Tian Gangfeng had rolled up their sleeves and clenched their fists. Seeing that the war of words was about to turn into a court brawl, the emperor stood up.

"Everyone, I know what you are thinking! Guo Meng will be sent back to the capital within a month, and the matter will be handed over to Dali Temple for trial in accordance with the Daliang Law! No matter who violates the Daliang Law, he must be dealt with impartially and without favoritism! I have said it straight.

, Don’t worry about who is the prince or who is the king of Jin! All the officials and people in the world are from Daliang!"

The emperor's meaning was very clear. Guo Meng was guilty, but in order to save the scholar's face, he just said that Guo Meng should be sent back to the capital instead of being escorted back to the capital.

After the court meeting ended, Li Xiaofei waited for the emperor's instructions. The emperor waved his hand, "Taifu Li, please go home and reunite with your wives. Ugly slave, you give Taifu Li a gift!"

Chou Nu'er was one of the emperor's personal eunuchs. Although his name was Chou Nu'er, he was very handsome, eight feet tall and elegant. Even though he was wearing eunuch's clothes, he still looked and behaved like a young man from aristocratic family.

"Mr. Li, please, I will lead the way for you, and you will be escorted by palace guards."

Li Xiaofei clasped his fists and saluted, "The chief internal officer invites you first!"

The ugly slave nodded, lifted the hem of his skirt and stepped forward.

When they returned to the Li Mansion next to the Imperial Academy, it was already noon. Li Xiaofei persuaded Chou Nuer to enter the house. Chou Nuer bowed, "Internal officials are not allowed to enter or leave the minister's residence privately, and they are not allowed to make friends with ministers. Mr. Li has accepted his wishes."

.Please forgive me, Mr. Li, and I will return to the palace to resume my duties right now!”

Looking at the ugly slave

Li Xiaofei suddenly remembered a person who looked very similar to him. If it was his son, then...

Before Li Xiaofei could think about it, Zhan Fei had already run to the door of the house. "Dad, dad, mom, they have been waiting for you all night! Didn't dad also stay up all night? There are dark circles under his eyes!"

Li Xiaofei was held by Zhan Fei's hand and ran into the house together. Wang Ruoyun, Hongrui and Murong Qing rushed over together.

Hong Rui and Murong Qing deliberately let Wang Ruoyun rush in front, but Wang Ruoyun almost knocked Li Xiaofei over with this pounce.

"You're a heartless person. You haven't sent a single letter back for so many years, which made us both worried that you were dead!" Wang Ruoyun burst into tears and howled loudly.

Hong Rui and Murong Qing also came over crying from behind, "Sister, this short and fat thief has even deceived us. In the past two months, our eyes have been almost blinded by crying, but he has been sleeping for two months!"

Li Xiaofei hugged Wang Ruoyun and coaxed him away, "I didn't tell you that I won't die, I just faked my death, but you didn't believe it, and you almost threw me into the sea to feed the fish! This, ouch"

Hong Rui and Murong Qing grabbed Li Xiaofei's ears left and right. Li Xiaofei couldn't stretch out his hands and grimaced in pain. "Hey, hey, Zhan Fei is watching from the side."

"Zhan Fei, watch carefully and don't lie to others in the future!"

"Especially you can't lie to your wife! You can't lie to any wife! Watch carefully!"

Zhan Fei shook his head, "Forget it, I won't marry a wife, so as not to be angry in the future!"

Li Xiaofei put down Wang Ruoyun, and the three women surrounded Zhanfei. "Silly boy, what nonsense are you talking about? It's hard to find such a blessing as your father in the world!"

"Son, you are so honest. If someone scolds or pulls someone's ears, that is a blessing gained in the previous life. Haha, don't be afraid. You will understand when you grow up!"

Zhan Fei couldn't escape and was surrounded by three women who started to scold him.

Zhan Fei raised his hands: "Auntie, second mother, mother, I was wrong, I was wrong. I will marry three wives like my father in the future, okay!"

The three women said two words in unison: "No!"

Then they said in unison, "Okay, okay!"

Zhan Fei rubbed his head, "Is it good or bad? I can't understand what you are saying!"

Li Xiaofei came in and pulled Zhan Fei, "Stop making trouble, don't scare the child, it will scare him silly!"

"No matter how stupid I am, can I be as stupid as you?"

"He is not stupid. If he were stupid, how could he have three of our beautiful wives?"

"Okay, okay, let's go eat, it's almost cold!"

The family went directly to the front hall to eat. Wang Ruoyun first filled a bowl of soup and handed it to Li Xiaofei, "Husband, this is the black-bone chicken and angelica soup that I made specially. Drink it while it's hot. It's a great tonic."

Murong Qing followed closely behind, "Brother A Fei, this is seabass and longan soup. It's delicious and very tonic!"

"Okay, okay, don't let me eat alone, Zhan Fei is still hungry!"

Hong Rui opened a food box, "Come on, come on, these are Lily Fu Lu Shou meatballs. The whole family will be reunited and eat together. Zhan Fei eat more. Your dad is a bad old man. Eating so much is a waste."

Got it!"

The whole family burst into laughter. Zhan Fei enjoyed this meal particularly deliciously.

In the next few days, Li Xiaofei and his son will wear three more sets of clothes every day, but the colors are different. Hong Rui chooses bright red or black, Murong Qing chooses blue or cyan, and Wang Ruoyun prefers

Love plain white and light yellow.

In addition to constantly trying out clothes, shoes and hats to see if they fit, the father and son also had to taste various dishes.

From the horse meat stewed with lotus seeds in Mobei to the fried pork knuckles with oysters in the South China Sea, from the steamed yak meat stuffed with grape juice in the northwest to the roasted donkey meat in the east, and even the stinky herrings brought back from overseas by Hongrui mixed with perilla, cheese-glazed squid, etc.

All entered the stomachs of Li Xiaofei and his son.

As for the herring, Zhan Fei refused to eat it at first. After Murong Qing coaxed and threatened him to eat it, he felt a sense of accomplishment and seemed to have opened the door to a new world.

"Smell means stink, stink means fragrant. It smells bad, but tastes delicious. It turns out that it is almost the same as stinky tofu!" Zhan Fei was quite proud.

Hongrui quietly took out something with a pungent smell and big thorns all over it, "Mr. sir, cut him open so Zhan Fei can see him again!"

But Wang Ruoyun grabbed it and said, "You three are too partial. You only give good things to this kid. This time I will try it first!"

Zhan Fei smiled, "In ancient times, Kong Rong gave away pears, and today I'm going to give in a prickly ball to mother!"

"Silly boy, this thing is called durian, durian gives birth to mother, that's right. Durian, nostalgia, wonderful," Hong Rui added after taking the words.

"I haven't eaten durian in a few days. I'm coming too." Li Xiaofei stretched out his hand and was grabbed by Murong Qing and Hong Rui.

"Who said you would rather die than eat durian? You are not allowed to eat it today. You have eaten all kinds of delicacies outside, and when you come back, you have to fight with your wife and son for something to eat. You are not allowed to eat it!"

About ten days later, someone asked to see him outside the mansion. Manager Sun came to report that it was Ji Shouxin, a doctor from the Imperial College.

Zhan Fei patted his head and ran out the door immediately, "That's bad! Dr. Ji is here. He has been eating, drinking and shopping with his parents these days. The Imperial College only gave him three days off!"

Wang Ruoyun chased after him, "Why are you panicking? What are you afraid of? It's just more routine!"

"Routine? What is the routine? When the doctor comes, you should be treated politely. We go to the door and invite you in."

Li Xiaofei and his three wives chased Zhan Fei to the door, and saw Zhan Fei bowing his head and saluting Dr. Ji.

This Dr. Ji is eight feet tall and burly. At first glance, he does not look like a scholar who deals with ancient and modern classics, but more like a military general.

Li Xiaofei also bowed to Dr. Ji, "Hello Mr. Ji, Quan Zi and I have been waiting for our reunion for a long time, so I have delayed my studies for a few days. Please forgive me!"

"Master Li, do you enjoy studying and practicing? Young master Ling has rarely studied since he was a child. If you don't pay attention, you will definitely fall behind others! I know that Master Li is a famous person around the emperor and a legend in our Liang Dynasty.

However, no matter how big the family fortune is, it will still be handed over to the son in the future. Ji is not talented, but he also knows that the son Wu cannot kill thieves with a sword. Only by reading and writing can he not disgrace the family!"

Dr. Ji's tone was rude. Wang Ruoyun was about to step forward to argue but was stopped by Li Xiaofei, "Mr. Ji's lesson is very good. Li has been taught a lesson. I will let Zhan Fei make up for the missed lessons. I will definitely add a few more to Mr. Li's routine."

Times!"

"Master Li, who do you think Mr. Ji is? I have never collected your family's routines or other families' routines. They were all confiscated by the Imperial College! Ji is poorer than other doctoral assistants, but Ji

This bone is very hard! If Mr. Li really thinks what I am saying is right, he will send your son to the Imperial Academy immediately!"

After Dr. Ji finished speaking, he pulled Zhan Fei up and said, "I will take your son away first. If Mr. Li and his wife want to send clothes, just follow me!"
