Li Zhi, don't be a coward

Chapter 706 A Homecoming
Regardless of King Teng's personality, in the Li family, King Teng is definitely a VIP. The kind that goes directly to the leisure area on the third floor after washing is very expensive.

Happiness came so suddenly that Li Qinzai was stunned for a while.

If it wasn't for the lack of time, he planned to take a bath and burn incense before entertaining guests, which would be more grand.

Now that King Teng was outside the gate, Li Qinzai had no choice but to straighten his clothes, silently manage his expression to the best state, and then walk as lightly as a dragon. The side door of the other courtyard opened, and Li Qinzai greeted him warmly with open arms. Filled with hearty smiles that feel at home.

"Oh! His Royal Highness King Teng has arrived, and the humble house is shining with golden light, full of splendor!" Li Qinzai's tone was exaggerated. He had never used such force when welcoming Empress Li Zhiwu.

Standing outside the door, King Teng's face was not very good-looking, and his eyes flickered fiercely.

On the way from Chang'an City to Ganjingzhuang, King Teng had already brewed up enough emotions to conceive of nine ways to kill Li Qinzai, nine ways!

However, he didn't expect Li Qinzai to be so enthusiastic. He watched Li Qinzai go out quickly and ran towards him with open arms, like a naive and lovely boy who made money and ran towards the God of Wealth without hesitation...

Before King Teng could react, he was hugged by Li Qinzai's ape arms so hard that King Teng was less than half a foot off the ground.

This is simply the power of embracing first love.

When King Teng was still in a daze, Li Qinzai had already let him go, then enthusiastically held his arm, and dragged him towards the door.

"Your Highness has worked hard all the way, and the banquet must be arranged. Today I will cook in person to welcome His Highness..." Li Qinzai looked at him deeply, and sighed: "Your Highness has lost a lot of weight, and Bingzhou must have suffered a lot while building roads, right? "

King Teng finally came to his senses at this time, no, this king came to Xingshi to inquire about his crimes, and he was almost corroded by sugar-coated shells, so he must quickly regain his original intention.

So King Teng snorted angrily: "I came to the door today to tell you that you and my daughter..."

Before he finished speaking, Li Qinzai gestured at his emaciated arm in distress, and sighed: "Tomorrow, I will report to Your Majesty. Your Highness has worked hard in building roads in Bingzhou. Your Majesty deserves a reward. You are a family member, and there is no other official title." , but I can advise His Majesty and arrange another errand for you..."

King Teng opened his mouth and found that he had nothing to say.

Enthusiastically introducing King Teng to the front hall, Li Qinzai ordered his servants to serve cakes, and after apologizing to King Teng, he went to work in the kitchen alone.

After a while, Li Qinzai entered the front hall with the dishes he cooked himself.

King Teng's nose twitched. It had to be said that Li Qinzai's cooking skills were truly unique in Chang'an. No wonder the dignitaries in Chang'an City were full of praise. Just smelling the taste of these dishes, King Teng couldn't help it.

Although this guy is a little hooligan who harmed his daughter, but... the delicious dishes are innocent.

So King Teng was silent, and began to drink and eat vegetables in large mouthfuls, until his mouth was full of oil.Every time he took a bite, he gave Li Qinzai a fierce look, which was very scary.

When distinguished guests come, Li Qinzai must of course remain polite.

When King Teng ate and drank, Li Qinzai raised his wine glass to toast from time to time.

However, King Teng still had some integrity after all. He could eat food and drink wine, but he turned a blind eye to Li Qinzai's toast.

Li Qinzai was not embarrassed either, but King Teng obviously came today out of anger, so he had to be comfortable with him. In theory, he was also his future father-in-law.

The stalemate was difficult to resolve. Li Qinzai thought for a moment, and suddenly thought that there was a magistrate sitting in the side hall at the moment. He was in a hurry to greet the God of Wealth just now, and almost forgot about him. He must be sitting in the side hall foolishly waiting for him Woolen cloth.

Even a piece of toilet paper has its uses, and a living person as big as Magistrate Ma is naturally more useful.

So Li Qinzai pleaded guilty, walked out of the front hall, and entered the side hall.

Sure enough, County Magistrate Ma was still sitting in the side hall foolishly, staring at the beams in a daze.

After Li Qinzai came in, he didn't talk nonsense with him, and said straight to the point: "Magistrate Ma, I have something to trouble you. A distinguished guest came to my house today. It's His Royal Highness King Teng, the uncle of today's emperor. You are a member of the officialdom, and there is no shortage of wine to greet and send you." Drink, now I give you a task, help me accompany that distinguished guest."

Magistrate Ma said in amazement, "'Accompany me well' means..."

"Get him drunk."

"Uh, sir..."

Li Qinzai didn't wait for him to refuse, and immediately said: "If you can get him drunk, I won't make it difficult for you to recruit farmers, and I guarantee that there will be a lot of them."

County Magistrate Ma immediately lifted his spirits, and said, "I'm not boasting, I've never met an opponent during the banquet."

Leading Magistrate Ma back to the front hall, Magistrate Ma greeted him warmly immediately.

King Teng used to be an old dandy, but after more than half a year of building roads in Bingzhou, he may have experienced some people's sufferings. Now his personality has changed a little, and he greets the low-ranking County Magistrate Ma with a smile.

Although he was full of anger towards Li Qin, King Teng did not transfer his anger to County Magistrate Ma. Facing Magistrate Ma's frequent toasts, King Teng would not refuse anyone who came.

Li Qinzai smiled and watched County Magistrate Ma playing his strengths. After half an hour, King Teng was seven or eight times drunk. When County Magistrate Ma made a toast again, he hesitated.

Li Qinzai cast a wink at Ma County Magistrate, and Ma County Magistrate understood, so he should chase the poor bandits with Remnant Yong and toast to King Teng non-stop.

After a long while, King Teng finally couldn't bear the attack of the old man from the wine shop, his head suddenly fell forward, and he fell on the table, splashing all over his body with wine-soaked vegetable soup.

From entering the door to getting drunk, King Teng still forgot his original intention after all, and he didn't have a chance to say a word of Xingshi's questioning.

Seeing that King Teng was drunk, Li Qinzai smiled brighter and nodded approvingly at Magistrate Ma.

Promising that County Magistrate Ma will definitely bring him the young men in Zhuangzi, County Magistrate Ma said goodbye with gratitude.

Looking at the unconscious King Teng in the hall, Li Qinzai clapped his hands, called several servants, and ordered them to carry King Teng back to his room to rest.

Then Li Qinzai called Liu Ah Si and a few others, pointed at the exquisite decoration in the front hall, and said: "Copy the guy, smash the front hall to pieces for me, the more rotten the better."

Liu Ah Si was taken aback: "Fifth Shaolang, are you not drunk?"

"I want to get drunk, but I won't be given a chance." Li Qinzai sighed.

"Don't talk nonsense, just smash it for me. After smashing it, go to the front yard and destroy all the flowers and plants planted in the yard. In short, I want to see the effect of the robbers breaking into my house and destroying the door."

Liu Ahsi and the members looked at him strangely, with deep worry in their eyes.

"I'm normal. If you look at me like this again, believe it or not, I'll slap you?" Li Qinzai pointed at the front hall and said, "Smash it!"
