"If Your Highness doesn't dislike you, the old minister is willing to do whatever he wants!"

Even though Li Er was here, Cheng Yaojin still took a step forward respectfully and bowed respectfully to Xiao Zhengtai.

His eyes were filled with a hot light, and His Highness's grand wish would never stop. The Tang Dynasty will surely expand its territory, and he is willing to follow the footsteps of Xiao Zhengtai.

"Uncle Cheng is serious, I'm just talking about it!"

Xiao Zhengtai was very embarrassed. He didn't expect this fool to do such a move. Isn't he a little bit of a slight conspiracy?

"Zhi Nu, you have grown up, and your father can really rest assured. It's so lucky that the Tang Dynasty has you!"

Li Er did not mind Cheng Yaojin's attitude. As a prince, he was already extremely qualified to be able to care about the people of the Tang Dynasty.

However, only Xiao Zhengtai has been able to take action for the people and achieve this step in Xiao Zhengtai.

"Father, you are saying this, my son will be proud."

After Xiaozheng said embarrassedly after sticking out his tongue, he continued to guide Li Er to walk forward.

"Are these craftsmen the local people?"

After walking for a while, he found the construction site in front. Looking at the craftsmen who were sweating and still working with a smile on their faces, Li Er hesitated for a while before asking.

"Well, they are all local people. Men can do this kind of physical work, while women go to those shops or restaurants to work, and then earn a certain amount of money based on their labor."

Xiao Zhengtai nodded slightly, constantly explaining the work situation of the people.

"Is that so? My father is really a little hungry. Let's go in and take a look."

Xiao Zhengtai's words made Li Er suddenly interested and raised his legs and walked towards the restaurant not far away.

In the Tang Dynasty, there was never a word that women came out to work. Generally, girls from poor families would choose to be maids in wealthy families.

Although Li Er had a smile on his cheek, his heart was filled with bitterness.

Thinking about the deposed Li Chengqian and Li Tai who retreated step by step in Dongting Lake, they only have that position in their eyes, so they have never cared about the people in the world.

All signs show that the only person who is suitable for this position in the end is Xiao Zhengtai, and only he will relieve Li Er.

"Father, this is a dish card, you have read it."

Xiao Zhengta smiled and handed the dish to Li Er and signaled him to order the dishes.

"Huh!"

“Snowing in the volcano?”

"Rapiders cross the river?"

"Birds snag the woods?"

......

"Father, are you sure you want to order these dishes?"

After hearing Li Er's words, Xiao Zhengta looked very strange. He chose these dishes as the names of them, so he naturally knew what they were.

"Of course, these things must be local characteristics, so I naturally have to try it."

Li Er said with certainty, his eyes full of expectations. The names of these dishes are so domineering, I guess they can't be wrong.

"What are these?"

Looking at the dishes served, Li Er's eyes almost flew out.

Sprinkle watermelon with white sugar, two slices of green vegetable leaves floating on the dumpling soup, and stir-fry leeks with bean sprouts...

"Father, do you think these dishes are very appropriate?"

Xiao Zhengtai said a little embarrassedly, but the things he made were not expected to be affected by the father.

Cheng Yaojin's old face turned red, and he looked like he wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh, and his expression was extremely painful.

"Zhinu, you are ordering a few dishes!"

This thing is an image, but it is too far from what he thinks in his heart. While speechless, he threw the dish to Xiaoshouta.

For the people of the Tang Dynasty, if a meal has no meat, it will be tasteless.

Xiao Zhengta was not polite, so he ordered a few dishes and waited quietly.

After drinking and having enough food, Li Er was quite satisfied with the restaurant here.

After returning to the manor, Xiao Zhengtai ordered people to brew a pot of good tea and drank it with Li Er.

"Zhinu, your father is very pleased that you can manage Lanzhou like this in such a short time.

But you four, hey! My father is really having a headache."

Li Er has always seen Li Tai's ambition. For that position, he lost so many soldiers and failed to the extreme.

"Oh? What does Father mean? Could it be that the emperor's brother encountered any difficulties in suppressing bandits in Dongting Lake?"

Xiao Zhengtai is really not pretending. During this period, he has been working hard for the development of Lanzhou and has not paid attention to the affairs of Dongting Lake at all.

Li Er did not hide it, and told everything that happened on Dongting Lake, and even did not hide the fact that Li Tai slaughtered soldiers and established his authority.

When Xiao Zhengtai heard the soldiers who slaughtered him, he couldn't help but frown on his tender face. Now he disagreed with the emperor's actions.

Xiao Zhengtai's thoughts must not be kept under common sense. Dongting Lake has always been a heart-wrenching problem. It is not easy to completely solve the problem of water bandits, so Li Er asked Xiao Zhengtai.

After all, no matter how bad Li Tai is, he is also his son of Li Shimin. He can't watch him die and ignore him.

"Zhinu, I believe you have studied the situation in Dongting Lake before. I wonder if there are any good strategies?"

Li Er looked at Xiao Zhengtai with a burning look. He knew that Xiao Zhengtai must have a way to solve the problem over there.

Xiao Zhengtai didn't speak. The problem of Dongting Lake was not a problem at all. What he needed was a promise from Li Er, after all, he was betting now.

"Zhi Nu, the bet matter, my father can announce your victory now. Why don't you work hard and solve the problem of Dongting Lake!

If you delay, your father is really afraid that your brother will not be able to hold on. In that case, he will become the laughing stock of the entire Tang Dynasty. I think you want to see something like that happen!

My father can also promise you that as long as the problem on Dongting Lake is solved, after returning to Chang'an, my father will hold a ceremony of enthronement for you. What do you think?"

Li Er spoke a little embarrassedly. According to the original agreement, Xiao Zhengtai had already won, but he still had to work more. He felt guilty about Xiao Zhengtai.

"Father, it's natural that there's no problem for my son to help, I'm afraid my brother will be unhappy."

Xiao Zhengtai shook his head slowly. The emperor's resentment towards him is not a little bit now, and he was undoubtedly adding fuel to the fire in the past.

"What qualifications do he have to blame you? If he hadn't been in Lanzhou, his father would have asked him to come back immediately. If he dared to blame you, he would directly deprive him of his identity as a general."

Seeing that Xiao Zhengtai was actually worried about this, Li Er was furious and directly issued an oral order to Xiao Zhengtai.

"Okay! I'll set off after I prepare."

Xiao Zheng was helpless and had to agree.

After seeing Xiao Zhengtai agree, Li Er's expression obviously eased a lot. As long as Xiao Zhengtai takes action, the hidden dangers in Dongting Lake will definitely be completely solved.

"Your Highness, no, are you really planning to go to Dongting Lake?"

Cheng Chumo looked helpless. To be honest, he recognized his nobleman who had been through life and death with him, and went up to the knife mountain and down the oil pan, but he was unwilling to ask him to help the King of Wei.
