"Why don't you go?" The bearded guest said with a look of course, "Didn't you want me to go to America before? But at that time I thought America was just a barbaric land and it was not worth the time and energy. Now after seeing America with my own eyes, I found that it was an extremely rich land. Not to mention that I am now staying in Zhuzi Island, even ten Japanese countries are not as good as America. Why don't I go with such a good place?"

Li Xiu was also speechless by the series of words from the bearded guest. He did intend to fool the bearded guest to America to avoid causing trouble for the Tang Dynasty. However, the two had no relationship at that time. Although Li Xiu did not completely regard the bearded guest as his uncle, he was at least a friend. He had different angles and naturally had different views.

"Uncle, you have to think clearly that America is so far away from the Central Plains, and it will take at least half a year to go back and forth. If your connection with the Central Plains is interrupted, your descendants may slowly become real Americans in the future and forget that they are people from the Central Plains." Li Xiu said with a cautious look at this time, and he hoped that the bearded guest would consider this issue carefully.

But what was beyond Li Xiu's surprise was that after hearing this, the bearded guest laughed and said, "Thank you, your reminder, but I have thought of this problem a long time ago and have thought of a countermeasure. Have you heard this sentence?"

"What do you mean?" Li Xiu asked curiously.

"It is better to have a king than to die in Xia." The bearded guest said with a smile.

"Isn't this Confucius' words? But what does it have to do with your trip to America?" Li Xiu said with a confused look on his face. He knew the meaning of Confucius' words, which means that barbarians do not understand etiquette and law. Even if there is a wise monarch, it is not as good as China without a monarch. This sentence has a strong nationalism. If you chew it carefully, you can feel a sour smell from it.

"Of course it's related. Confucius believed that the biggest difference between barbarians and Chinese is etiquette and law. So on the other hand, if barbarians understand Chinese etiquette, then are they still barbarians?" The bearded guest smiled again. Although he was rude and a pirate king who killed people without blinking, in essence, his mind was still Confucian. For them, the division between Chinese and foreigners is not divided from ethnic or regional perspective, but from thought.

"When the barbarians enter China, they will be Chinese. When the Chinese enter the barbarians, they will be barbarians!" Li Xiu couldn't help but whisper to himself when he heard this. This sentence was mentioned by many scholars in later generations, but it was not what Confucius said, but what Han Yu said when he commented on Confucius.

"If the barbarians enter China, then China will be! Hahaha~, OK! That's all! That's all, I didn't expect that you are really talented and said what I thought but couldn't say. That's what I mean!" When the bearded guest heard this, he couldn't help but laugh and praise. That's what he said.

"I understand, uncle, what do you mean is to spread the etiquette of China to America?" Li Xiu stared at Qiuyan with a daze at this time and said, "The whole person's brain was in a state of improperness, because he didn't expect that Qiuyan would dare to think and do it more than him. This idea was beyond his expectations.

"That's right, although those Mayans are much more civilized than ordinary natives, in my opinion, their level of civilization is still very low, especially because they are very respectful of gods. They only need to use a little means to easily make use of this. However, their sacrificial sacrificial knowledge is very amazing, but this cannot change the overall situation. If it really doesn't work, they will be eliminated. There are too many ways to kill people without knowing the ghost." The bearded guest nodded and said.

At the end of the story, the tone of the bearded guest had become very cold-blooded. Strictly speaking, he and Li Shimin are both the same type of people. They use any means to achieve their goals, and everything is based on interests. However, he is older and takes fame and fortune lighter, which makes him feel a little more humane than Li Shimin. This is also the main reason why Li Xiu is willing to treat him as a friend.

When Li Xiu heard the cold-blooded words of the bearded guest, he felt cold all over. There was no doubt about the talent and means of the bearded guest. Li Jing was taught by him, and he also established a considerable force overseas, and he was the pirate king on the coast of the Tang Dynasty. Now this bloody pirate king actually took a fancy to America. To put it bluntly, the Mayans over there were like children to the bearded guest, and there was no room for resistance.

"Uncle, it's not easy for the Mayans to accept the culture and etiquette of China. Have you really thought about it?" Li Xiu asked again at this time, and he still had great doubts about this matter.

"Of course I thought about it. The greatest wish of the saint is to educate the people so that everyone knows etiquette and is polite. However, I don't need me to educate here in the Central Plains, so I'll go overseas. I'm fifty-three years old this year, and the Saint Confucius lived to be seventy-three years old. If I could live for a long time, then there would be twenty years left. Goujian spent ten years of life and ten years of education, and finally defeated the powerful Wu Kingdom. I spent all my 20 years on education, and I don't believe that I can't build a small Huaxia!" When the bearded guest said this, his eyes also showed an ambitious look.

Seeing the appearance of the bearded guest, Li Xiu suddenly realized in his heart that the reason why the bearded guest went to America was actually very complicated. First, he did have the intention to benefit the people of the Central Plains, and second, he was a well-known person, hoping to be remembered forever.

Finally, there is another very important point, that is, after giving up the battle for the Central Plains, the bearded guest suddenly lost his pursuit of life. As a result, the Americas mentioned by Li Xiu just filled the gap and gave him a new pursuit. But now he has been to America, but he lost his pursuit again. However, this time he did not need Li Xiu to help him, and he found a pursuit of life, which is to establish a new China in America.

"This... Since my uncle has made up his mind, I won't say anything. I just hope you take care of everything!" Li Xiu hesitated for a moment and said helplessly.

The bearded guest is a completely opposite of him. He is now indifferent to the world. His biggest wish is to live a lazy life, but the bearded guest is different. To describe him in one word, that is, "tossing". Fortunately, he withdrew from the Central Plains to fight for hegemony. Otherwise, the entire Zhongyuan would not know what he would have tortured him?

"You said this to remind me that although I am strong, I am indeed older. This time I went to sea, I felt a little difficult. I was not as energetic as the young men like Eleven. It seems that I have to learn some health preservation from Taoism in the future. As for drinking, I have to quit, which is too harmful to my body, so that I will not live for less than twenty years and make my previous efforts fail!" The bearded guest finally touched his chin and said to himself.

Li Xiu couldn't help but feel speechless when he heard this, but at the same time he felt the terribleness of a person like the bearded guest. In order to achieve his goal, he was so addicted to alcohol that he could quit drinking. With this determination, what else could he not do?

After dinner, Li Xiu personally made tea for the bearded guest. He was the second person who was lucky enough to meet Li Xiu's tea ceremony. The bearded guest was also very novel about this novel tea ceremony. Moreover, he was not like Ma Ye. After tasting the tea, he also praised it. It seems that he likes this kind of fried tea very much.

"Uncle, since you want your eleventh brother to marry Qu Yi, why don't you take her directly to Zhuzi Island? I heard from Brother Eleventh brother that you seem to have agreed to go back to Zhuzi Island first and then come to find me?" Li Xiu tasted the tea and chatted. He had actually asked the first half of this question just now, but the bearded guest did not answer.

"It's very simple. I want the 11th and Qu Yi to hold a wedding in Chang'an, and then give birth to this grandson in Chang'an. If possible, I hope this grandson will grow up in Chang'an. Then I will take him to America!" The bearded guest tasted the tea ceremony again. The tea was really good. He decided to ask Li Xiu for a few pounds when he left.

"Why?" Li Xiu couldn't help but ask in surprise when he heard this.

"Haha, why did you forget? I want to establish a little Chinese overseas. This child will definitely inherit the positions of Eleventh in the future. If I want my efforts to continue, I naturally have to make him understand from a young age that he is a Chinese. It's a pity that his mother is a Maya, but it doesn't matter. Chang'an is the capital of the Tang Dynasty and the core of China. When he grew up here, he naturally thinks he is a Chinese, so that he can better inherit everything I left for him!" The bearded guest explained calmly.

When Li Xiu heard this, he couldn't help but admire the long-term plan of the Queb. This is indeed a good idea. Zhang Shiyi and Qu Yi's son are mixed-race. If he grew up in the Americas, he would easily think that he was a Mayan rather than a Chinese. This is the impact of the growth environment on a person. The Queb's ability to think of this is enough to show that he must have had comprehensive considerations and plans for this matter, which also made Li Xiu more at ease.

"By the way, they want to get married in Chang'an on the 11th, and they will live in Chang'an for a long time in the future. However, before I could prepare a house for him, I would bother you!" At this time, the bearded guest spoke again. A house is a major event related to his livelihood for ordinary people, but for a person like the bearded guest, it is not worth mentioning at all.

"No problem, uncle, do you have any place you like? Speaking of which, I have a few gardens on the south side of Nanshan. The scenery is very good, which is very suitable for the Eleventh Brother and his family to live there." Li Xiu immediately smiled when he heard this. For him now, a house is nothing, and Thomas likes to buy houses and land. He gave several gardens directly to Li Xiu, saying that he would use it to escape the summer heat.

"Nanshan is a little far away. I want Eleven to live near your home. Do you have any recommendations?" The bearded guest shook his head at this time and then expressed his thoughts.

"Living near my house?" Li Xiu was a little surprised when he heard this. Then he frowned and thought for a while, and finally shook his head helplessly, "There is really no big house near my house, but if you really want your eleventh brother to live in, I can help him build a house nearby."

The bearded guest and his son brought high-yield crops from America regardless of life and death. A mere house was nothing. Even if it was a little troublesome, Li Xiu would try his best to meet his requirements.

"Then build a new house nearby. The distance is not too far. It is best to buy some land for them and let Qu Yi learn from the school. I want this child to grow up like an ordinary person. In addition, I have decided that when the child grows up, he will learn from you!" The bearded guest pointed at Li Xiudao at the end.

"Ah? You also let the child learn from me?" Li Xiu couldn't help but shouted with a bitter face when he heard this. Why did the bearded guest and Li Shimin have the same virtue as the same as the one who agreed or not, and sent the child to him?

"What? Are there other children from other people's children studying with you?" The bearded guest asked with interest when he heard this. He thought that only he thought of this good idea. As for Li Chengqian and Li Chengdao learning with Li Xiu, it was something that happened after he left, so he didn't know.

"Well, the prince and the eldest son of the King of Qin are both studying here, but the situation in Chang'an City was very chaotic some time ago, so I haven't come during this period." Li Xiu replied honestly, there was nothing to hide.

"Okay! You kid actually brought the two children who were most likely to inherit the throne from the third generation of the Tang Dynasty to the family. From this point of view, you, the prince consort, have to be determined!" The bearded guest couldn't help but lit up when he heard this. He also knew about Li Xiu and Princess Pingyang, but he didn't know that Li Xiu had married before.

"Don't mention it, I got married some time ago." Li Xiu smiled bitterly at this time, and then told him about Li Yuan's previous marriage, without hiding his previous entanglement with the romance.

"Hahaha~, I didn't expect that you are so lucky. Even the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty forced you to give women. But you are so bold that you even ignored etiquette and Princess Pingyang's pre-climbing ceremony. I was already scattered enough when I was young, but I didn't have the courage to do this!" The bearded guest laughed at first, and then said with some appreciation. From the first sight of Li Xiu, he knew that the other party was a guy who did not play according to common sense.

Li Xiu rolled his eyes when talking about the bearded guest. This guy is not a woman at all. In his opinion, it is the same for everyone to marry, as long as it is in his own interests. Moreover, multiple women are like multiple clothes for him, and they don’t care at all that this dress is actually thoughtful and emotional.

"By the way, you said just now that the situation in Chang'an is very chaotic. Even the prince and the son of Qin don't dare to leave the city. What's going on?" The bearded guest suddenly spoke again.

"This matter is a long story, and it starts with the struggle between the prince and the King of Qin..." Li Xiu said and explained the complete story of what happened to the brothers Li Shimin during this period. Finally, he suddenly thought of a question and asked with interest, "Uncle, didn't you think the King of Qin would be the lord of the world at the beginning? But now Your Majesty is obviously biased towards the prince. What do you think the King of Qin should do?" (To be continued.)
