After listening to the holy decree, Li Hao was not too excited, these rewards were as expected by him, he was awarded the title of Shangzhu State, the commander was at the top, he was awarded the rank of Hussar General, and the Wusan official was also at the top, as for the title, he was already a king with a different surname, and he was also at the top.

Li Hao was a little worried, if he made great contributions in the future, would he be unsealable, he was only twenty-eight years old, and he had reached the point where he could not be sealed, I don't know whether to be happy or worried.

Fortunately, Li Shimin may also be worried about such a thing, he has not given Li Hao a title, and now Li Hao does not even have the position of scientific research temple, although Li Hao's civil and military official position is high, the rank is high, and the title is high, but he has no position, so he is the most special person in the court, he has no power without a position, and he will not be a master, Li Shimin really thinks thoughtfully, in this way, it is good for him to Li Hao.

"Lord, take the order." Xu Lian reminded.

Li Hao put an end to his nonsense and saluted: "Respectfully receive the holy decree!" Thank you for your grace! Then he stepped forward and took the decree with both hands.

Xu Lian looked at Li Hao with a smile and said, "King Qiongnan, Your Majesty is waiting for you in the Ganlu Palace, you are very anxious, you can go in with our family." ”

Li Hao nodded: "I'm tired of Father-in-law Xu." He said that he handed over the horse to Yu Linwei on the side, and then entered the Taiji Palace under the leadership of Xu Lian.

Pass through the Taiji Gate, pass through the Taiji Palace, then pass through the Liangyi Gate, pass through the Liangyi Palace, enter the Ganlu Gate, and come to the Ganlu Palace.

Li Hao stood outside the Ganlu Palace, Xu Lian entered the hall, and after a while, Xu Lian's shout came from the hall: "Xuanqiongnan King Li Hao is here!" ”

Li Hao straightened his clothes slightly, strode into the manna hall, stood still in the center of the hall, and bowed down: "Minister Li Hao sees the emperor." ”

"Poetry is exempt, poetry is exempt!" Li Shimin's voice was a little excited, and he seemed to be very happy.

Li Hao flattened his body and looked up at Li Shimin slightly, only to see that Li Shimin was disheveled at the moment, with his dragon robe open, revealing his black chest hair, his sleeves were rolled up above his elbows, and there were a lot of hairs on his arms.

Li Shimin's desk has two large blue and white porcelain basins, which are full of ice cubes, each ice cube is cut into a boxy box, about the same size as mahjong.

"Come on, poetry maniac, come over and eat some ice cubes to cool down the heat, you must be too hot......" Li Shimin beckoned to Li Hao.

Li Hao was shocked, and he wanted to deceive Lao Tzu again, the last time he ate an ice cube from him, his credit was offset like this, and this time he played this set, Li Hao hurriedly smiled awkwardly, and arched his hand: "Back to Your Majesty, the minister is not hot at all, really, not hot at all." ”

"Look at you sweating profusely, and you still say it's not hot......" Li Shimin suddenly stopped, as if he remembered something, and then laughed, and after laughing for a while, he said, "Don't worry, I invite you to eat this time, it's free!" ”

"Really?" Li Hao looked suspicious.

"It's more real than pearls." Li Shimin said a sentence commonly used by Li Hao.

Li Hao thought to himself, that's it, Lao Li is so enthusiastic, even if he cheats me, he admits it, and he has been rewarded anyway. As soon as he thought of this, he strode forward, came to the dragon case, picked up a piece of ice and put it in his mouth, and bit it hard, Galala, Galala, wow! It's so cool.

"How?" Li Shimin looked at him expectantly, he was old, and his heart was not good, the doctor told him not to eat ice cubes, so he could only watch Li Hao chew ice cubes to find a cool feeling.

Li Hao raised his eyebrows and nodded: "My heart is cold, and my heart is flying." ”

"Alas, it's good to be young...... Li Shimin looked at Li Hao with envy, suddenly looked shocked, and asked in surprise, "Poet, you hair...... How is it white? ”

Li Hao stroked two bundles of white sideburns, and said nonchalantly: "Worried, that day Gai Suwen suddenly brought 30,000 troops to the city of Youzhou, and the ministers thought hard about the best way to break the enemy overnight, and these two locks of hair turned white." With that, he picked up another piece of ice and stuffed it into his mouth, and continued to chew on it with "Galala, Galala".

Li Shimin was stunned when he heard this, he had heard the story of Wu Zixu's white head overnight, and he always thought it was a boast, how could anyone turn white overnight, but when he saw Li Hao's two locks of sideburns, he finally believed it, Li Hao is still so young, although he is twenty-eight years old, Li Hao really looks like an eighteen-year-old young man, and these two bundles of white hair suddenly appeared, which was particularly abrupt.

Although Li Hao said it lightly, Li Shimin could imagine how helpless Li Hao should have been that night.

"Come, let me touch it." Tears appeared in the corners of Li Shimin's eyes, and he stretched out his hand tremblingly, wanting to touch Li Hao's white sideburns.

Li Hao was very cooperative, leaned over as he said, and stretched his head in front of Li Shimin, but he was still chewing ice cubes in his mouth, alas, it was really cool.

Li Shimin raised his hand tremblingly and stroked Li Hao's sideburns, tears couldn't help but burst out of his eyes, only to hear him choke and say: "Child, I'm sorry for you." He actually called Li Hao a child, which shows that he really feels sorry for Li Hao.

Li Hao heard that Li Shimin's voice was different, and he seemed to be crying, but he didn't dare to look at it, Li Shimin had never shed tears in front of outsiders, because he was the invincible Heavenly Khan in the world.

Li Hao continued to tilt his head and said, "The minister is not bitter." After that, he took the ice cubes from the porcelain basin and continued to chew, in fact, he was thinking in his heart, why did Li Shimin cry and feel sorry for me? Or is he really old? Is the king's aura starting to disperse? But his willingness to shed tears in front of me shows that he doesn't treat me as an outsider anymore.

Li Shimin really doesn't treat Li Hao as an outsider anymore, recently, he has figured it out, he has always beaten Li Hao all these years, how can it be like beating his own child, Li Hao also behaved very well, every time he was beaten by him, he never held a grudge, whether it was in prison or exile, Li Hao has always been doing his best for the Tang Dynasty, this point, even his own son can't do it, look at Li Tai, if you can't get the throne, you will rob it, just rob it, and dare to collude with the barbarians outside the border to rob it, and almost didn't make him angry, How Li Shimin hopes that his son can be as good as Li Hao, or that Li Hao is his son, but unfortunately not.

Fortunately, Li Zhi didn't disappoint him too much, after Li Zhi became the prince, he has been performing well, although there is nothing too prominent, but it doesn't bother him much, state affairs or something, it's quite fast to get started, to say that Li Zhi is most satisfied with Li Shimin, that is, Li Zhi has a good eye and recognizes Li Hao as a teacher, the relationship between Li Zhi and Li Hao is extraordinary, this Li Shimin knows that at this moment, Li Shimin only hopes that their relationship can always be so good, after all, Li Zhi is the future monarch, the monarch and the minister are concentric, and the country is in great interest.

It has always been easy for courtiers to be successful, but Li Shimin is not worried about Li Hao at all, if Li Hao has a rebellion, he will rebel as early as when he returns to King Qin, what a good opportunity it is, it can succeed almost effortlessly, but Li Hao does not, this is the reason why Li Shimin trusts Li Hao the most.

Li Shimin raised his sleeves and slowly wiped away his tears, and sighed: "Poetry maniac, if you were my child, how good it would be." ”

Li Hao was shocked when he heard this, then straightened up, pretended to be a hippie smile, and said: "The minister also wants to, but the minister's reincarnation skills are too poor and he is not accurate, otherwise the minister will be a free prince, eat, drink and have fun every day, eat and wait for death, and be more comfortable and comfortable." After saying that, he didn't smile shamelessly.

"You, you ......" Li Shimin was also amused by him, pointed at him, and sighed helplessly, "I also know that what I said is ridiculous, but this is my heartfelt words." ”

Li Hao smiled and said seriously: "Your Majesty, rest assured, Li Hao will do his best to dedicate his strength to Datang as long as he lives one day." ”

Li Shimin nodded with satisfaction, his eyes were full of relief, and he said slowly: "You have never disappointed me, and I believe that you will not in the future, but it's a pity...... I'm old...... Time is running out......"

"Your Majesty, don't say bad things." Li Hao patted his ass and said, "Your Majesty will live a hundred years......"

"I'm not a child, so don't coax me." Li Shimin waved his hand and said indifferently, "I know my body best." ”

Li Hao smacked his lips when he heard this, he didn't know what to say, and the topic was a little heavy.

After a while, Li Shimin frowned lightly, and said with a face full of unwillingness: "My time is short, but there are still some things in my heart that can't be put aside, poetry madness, can you help me?" ”

Li Hao hurriedly arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty, please make it clear, and the minister will not refuse." ”

Li Shimin said: "Although the Tang Dynasty is strong at the moment, but there are still strong enemies around it, this time you are trapped in Youzhou, it can also be seen that these Fanbang barbarians are all tigers and wolves, watching my good mountains and rivers for a long time." ”

Li Hao said thoughtfully: "Your Majesty is worried about these foreign clans. ”

"yes." Li Shimin patted the dragon case lightly, and said with a sad face, "We have Goguryeo in the east of the Tang Dynasty, Xue Yantuo in the north, Western Turks in the northwest, and Tubo in the west. ”

Li Hao secretly thought in his heart when he heard this: "Not only that, but there is also a traverser who has been dormant in the shadows, stirring up the wind and clouds everywhere, lest the world will not be chaotic." ”

Li Shimin said again: "Poetry madness, I will hold on for another year or two, I want to see you destroy these enemies one by one, can you do it?" ”

Li Hao was stunned when he heard this, and secretly shouted in his heart: "My God! I'm dripping sky! You really think of me as a god! In a year or two, let me exterminate so many countries, and these countries are so far away! ”

Li Shimin saw that his expression was stiff, and he also knew that his question was a little difficult, so he said slowly: "I know, this is a bit difficult for you, it doesn't matter, you can kill one or two in my lifetime, I am very pleased, and the rest, you can figure it out slowly." ”

Li Hao shook his head when he heard this: "The minister must do his best not to disappoint His Majesty." ”

"Good!" Li Shimin said happily when he heard this, "Poet madman, tell me, among these states, that clan should be destroyed first!" ”

Li Hao thought for a while and said: "Among these states, Goguryeo is the weakest, but they are the most ferocious. ”

"You and I want to go together." Li Shimin nodded again and again, "This is also the reason why I wanted to conquer Goguryeo in the first place, but unfortunately, it fell short." ”

Li Hao said: "Your Majesty, the reason for the failure of the attack on Goguryeo is because of Zhang Liang, this person is suspected of being a vegetarian meal in the corpse position, and he is embarrassed and useful. ”

Li Shimin was silent for a moment when he heard this, shook his head and sighed: "Zhang Liang is indeed ambitious and talented, I will deal with it, don't mention this first, you can talk about it, can you destroy Goguryeo next year?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, you can!" Li Hao was the first to say, "However, to attack Goguryeo, there is no need for the ministers to go out, the ministers recommend one person to His Majesty to conquer the east, and they will definitely succeed!" ”
