Chapter 351 Are You Selling Yourself for Arms?
After all, as a time traveler, Li Jize traveled through time with the memories of that era. This is both his strongest cheat and his psychological burden!
Because he had experienced the pain of that era, knew the regrets of history, and understood the disasters that this nation had experienced, so when he came to this era and saw the familiar people of Qi, he wanted to save them and prevent the tragedy of that era from happening again here.
The revolution has not yet succeeded, comrades still need to work hard!
Li Jize is an ambitious man. He hasn't finished his work yet, so how can he have the nerve to harm a minor here?
If Li Jize only knew how to enjoy himself and squeeze the people's wealth, he was afraid that he would become another empress in the future.
You must know that the land of gentleness is where your bones will be buried!
Seeing Li Jize with a cold and sour face, just watching without saying anything, the princess thought to herself, "boring!"
no way……
With a husband who didn't understand romance, the princess could only take the initiative to find some fun herself. "How about this? Why don't we drink a cup of wedding wine together?"
"what!"
While Li Jize was still in a daze, the little princess had already intimately taken his hand, with a shy look on her face like a flower bud about to bloom!
Looking at the beautiful lady in such a state, Li Jize's body froze for a moment, and he was actually a little stunned.
Looking at the princess, he smiled awkwardly, slowly pulled his hand out of her arm, and took a sip.
This evasive action confused the little princess who was about to drink the wedding wine, and then she looked at her husband with a sad look.
Boring! It's really too boring, right?
Li Jize drank the wine in his glass in one gulp, then looked at the little princess, smacked his lips and said, "Princess, if you have any questions, just tell me. You and I are husband and wife, and I will definitely help you if I can!"
After all this talk and causing so many unexpected problems, she must have something she needs his help with. Li Jize didn't want to continue to be trapped in this "honey trap".
Especially when he saw a 17-year-old girl showing off her charm in various ways, he felt really uncomfortable, as if there was something stuck in his throat and a thorn in his side. It would be better for him to just "talk business" directly.
As expected, the little princess gently picked up the wine and drank it all in one gulp. Then she smiled and said, "I don't really have anything important to say. It's just... ahem... I just want to tell you some good news!"
Ok?
After hearing what the little princess said, Li Jize suddenly felt a chill on his back and felt anxious.
She suddenly dressed like this, and was drinking wedding wine, and was about to tell me good news...
Damn! Li Jize was really afraid that she would say "You are going to be a father" in the next moment!
Being stared at by Li Jize, the little princess gave an awkward smile, then picked up the wine pot and continued, "I just received news from my sister that the court has won a great victory against Zuo Santong's rebels and has recovered two states. My husband, don't you think this is something worth celebrating?"
At this point, the little princess raised the wine jug and filled Li Jize's cup again. "The court has achieved a rare victory. It's time to celebrate. Come! Husband, let's have another drink."
Li Jize: "..."
I'm so fucking speechless!
Just by opening up and defeating the Zao Santong Pass, would this be a rare victory for the imperial court? If they had defeated the barbarians, wouldn't the empress have gone to "Taishan Fengshan"?
Of course, this is from Li Jize's perspective, and he thinks this matter is very ridiculous.
But you have to know that since the empress ascended the throne, the court has been waging wars against foreign countries everywhere and has not even won a decent victory.
Often, after killing a dozen barbarians, they would brag about it and say it was a great victory unprecedented in history.
As a result, the entire Great Qi became the Southern Qi, and half of the country was occupied by others.
The Qi army could neither defeat the barbarians nor the rebels, but now they can defeat Zuo Santong, which is a real victory in a head-on battle. How can the two sisters not be happy?
but……
Damn, isn’t their happiness a bit too fucked up?
Because the betrothal gift given by Li Jize was a total of ten ships of arms!
Moreover, these weapons are all fragmentation rifles, and there are also many rifles and artillery among them, which completely forms a generation gap, okay?
If she still can't win, then the empress should not count on the Qi army, but instead find a group of pigs to fight with muskets.
Although Li Jize complained in his heart, he did not expose it on the surface, but just smiled at the little princess.
Because if he guessed correctly, the little princess mentioned a great victory, so it would be time to serve the main course, right?
As expected, the little princess looked at Li Jize with a smile on her face, and then she praised him non-stop, "The reason why our Qi army was able to achieve such a great victory this time is thanks to the firearms my husband gave us. They are so powerful. Otherwise, we would not have won this battle so quickly!"
"Otherwise, we wouldn't have won this battle so quickly." Doesn't this statement sound contradictory? Isn't it bizarre?
It's not a question of whether you can win or not so quickly, right?
If it weren't for this batch of firearms, Li Jize was 100% sure that he would not be able to win against the Qi army!
Her words were so contradictory, because she wanted to give Li Jize some credit, but not too much credit. Giving him some credit was to make him continue to supply weapons and ammunition, but not giving him too much credit was to prevent him from using it as an excuse to ask for "rewards"!
Li Jize didn't say anything either. He just ate his food and watched the little princess perform quietly.
Sure enough, the little princess filled another glass of wine and toasted Li Jize again. He didn't hesitate! The two of them went back and forth, and this was already the third glass.
Li Jize was the King of Qin after all. Whether he had eaten skewers, roasted kidneys, and draft beer at street stalls in his previous life, or in this era, entertaining his generals, wine and drinks were indispensable.
So drinking three cups of wine was just a piece of cake for him, but the little princess was only 17 years old and grew up in the deep palace. Who could ask the princess to toast?
So her alcohol tolerance had not been trained at all. After just three glasses of wine, her face turned pink and she started to feel a little tipsy.
As the saying goes, alcohol makes cowards brave. After three glasses of wine, the little princess finally had the nerve to say what she wanted to say.
"The war in the south is going well, but muskets are consumables! They consume a huge amount of bullets and gunpowder. Originally, our Qi army intended to capture Zuo Santong's troops in one fell swoop. However, we are really struggling with a shortage of ammunition. So..."
Having said that, the little princess did not continue, but turned her head to look at Li Jize, looking at him with pitiful and pleading eyes.
