Li Xiu stretched his body while yawning, then moved his body in the yard, and then started running a few laps. He is not young now, so he pays more attention to health than before. After all, he wants to live a few more years and see where the Tang Dynasty will develop in the future?

After breakfast, Li Xiu thought about it and found that he was fine. Although there were many children in the family, Wu Mingkong and Lizhi were there. They were now responsible for the task of educating their children for him. As for the academy, he had just been to the academy yesterday, and there was nothing he had to worry about at home, so he finally picked up the fishing rod and went fishing beside the yellow canal.

However, when Li Xiu came to the big willow tree he was fishing in the past, he suddenly realized that this was Ma Ye’s favorite place when he was fishing, especially in the hot summer, Ma Ye liked to lean on the willow tree and sit under the tree to enjoy the cool and drink. Unfortunately, although the tree is there now, the people are no longer there.

Thinking of Ma Master, Li Xiu couldn't help but feel a little sad, but at his age, he was also open to life and death. So after his sadness, he set up a chair under the willow tree, hung bait, sat under the tree and fished. However, it may be because of his absent-mindedness. After sitting under the tree for a long time, no fish took the bait.

However, just when Li Xiu had fished for a long time and found nothing, he suddenly heard a sound of footsteps from behind, which made him turn his head and look, but he stood up in surprise, then hurried forward and saluted: "See Your Majesty!"

Not far ahead of Li Xiu, Li Shimin was also wearing a casual outfit and carrying a fishing rod on his shoulder, but Li Xiu couldn't understand why Li Shimin suddenly ran here?

"No need to be polite. Wuji and the others are busy with government affairs, but you are fishing leisurely here. It seems that your choice was the right one!" Li Shimin smiled and then set up a stool next to Li Xiu, then put down the fishing rod and started fishing.

"After letting go of many government affairs, His Majesty even had time to go fishing. It seems that His Majesty's original choice was correct." Li Xiu also said with a smile. Although he didn't know what Li Shimin came to, he knew that since Li Shimin gave up power, he had indeed been much easier than before. Even now, his face is rosy and more energetic than before.

Hearing Li Xiu's joke, Li Shimin couldn't help laughing, then asked Li Xiu to sit down and then laughed again: "I'm free today, so I'm out for a walk. I heard that you're fishing here, so I'm here too, but I'm not very good at fishing, so you have to give me more advice."

"Your Majesty is looking for the wrong person. Although I often fish, my skills are very ordinary. You see, I have been here for a long time today, but I still haven't caught a single fish." Li Xiu picked up the empty bucket next to him and showed it to Li Shimin, which caused the other party to laugh again.

"By the way, news came from Mo Nan, Jin'er ran away again this time!" After laughing, Li Shimin suddenly remembered something and said to Li Xiu that he was also very concerned about Li Jin's nephew, his uncle, so as long as there is any news, he is the first to know.

"Running again? Isn't he in Monan? Where can he run?" Li Xiu frowned when he heard Li Shimin's words. Monan is not close to Chang'an. Even though he often communicates with his two sons, it has been at least half a month since a letter came to him, so the information communication between the two sides was very lagging behind.

"Hehe, this time I didn't expect that he would follow Pei Xingjian to Liaodong. I guess he has already gone halfway now. You can't catch up if you want to chase him." Li Shimin said helplessly at this time. Li Jin was originally transferred to Sushuocheng and was idle. As a result, he happened to meet Pei Xingjian who was going to Liaodong. He didn't know how he convinced Pei Xingjian, so Pei Xingjian used his power to take Li Jin over. After all, he was also responsible for going to Liaodong this time, and he did have the power to mobilize local personnel to assist him, so Li Jin was able to follow him to Liaodong smoothly.

"Forget it, Jin'er is not a conservative person. If he wants to, go and see what kind of achievements he can make in the future?" Li Xiu couldn't help but shook his head helplessly when he heard this. He had really fucked Li Jin's son, but he still couldn't bear to see him. Now he just let him go.

"You don't have to worry about Jin'er's safety. In addition to the people he brought from his family, I also arranged some people to protect him around him. Moreover, although the situation in Liaodong is serious, Silla and Baekje dare not offend our Tang Dynasty too much. In addition, Pei Xingjian is not a reckless person, so he will not let Jin'er do anything too dangerous." Li Shimin spoke again at this time.

"I have also heard from Brother Wuji that the fight between Silla and Baekje this time is actually a good thing for our Tang Dynasty. We can take the opportunity to consume the strength of both of them so as not to be difficult to control in the future." Li Xiu pondered for a moment and spoke again.

"No wonder Wuji has the same opinion as you. It turns out that he has discussed it with you a long time ago, but what you said is right. Silla's strength has grown rapidly in recent years. Baekje alone can no longer restrain them. This is also the main reason why Silla dares to send troops to Baekje. It is estimated that they want to destroy Baekje and dominate the country. Maybe they will become Goguryeo again!" When Li Shimin said the last thing, he couldn't help but frown.

"Then let's use this war to severely weaken Silla's strength. I remember that Silla's coastline is very long. Dengzhou is stationed in the first navy of our Tang Dynasty. With the strength of this navy, it should be easy to teach the Silla people a severe lesson from the sea. As long as they are beaten to hurt, they will naturally be honest in the future!" Li Xiu also said with a cold expression on his face. He has never had any good feelings for the Silla people.

"It is a good idea to use the navy. When we attacked Goguryeo, the navy also played a key role. We had an advantage at sea. Even if we fight Silla head-on, it will definitely be less loss than the land-based war." Li Shimin nodded in agreement when he heard Li Xiu's words.

Seeing Li Shimin agreeing with his suggestions, Li Xiu was also happy. Speaking of which, although the Tang Dynasty's navy had already separated from the navy and became a single army when it attacked Goguryeo, he had no chance to do his best except for exerting force in the attack on Goguryeo, which made Li Xiu a little worried about the future of the navy. Now he can only try his best to help the navy to gain some opportunities. It depends on whether they can seize it.
