Chapter 42: Blackmail Li Daozong

"Dad! This person is dead, he bullied his daughter." The girl complained to Li Daozong in great grievance, and her slender jade hand pointed at Li Hao like a dead finger.

Li Daozong ignored his daughter and just looked at Li Hao quietly.

He seemed calm, but in fact he was struggling inside, whether to kill Li Hao and why he killed Li Hao, it was not because Li Hao touched his daughter's breasts, but because Li Hao knew too much. Yes, many people died because they knew too much.

Li Shimin was born in a military camp and had extremely strict military governance, so the military laws of the Tang Dynasty were extremely strict. It was impossible to hide women in the army. This was a serious crime. No one knew how serious it was, because no one had committed this crime since the founding of the Tang Dynasty. If the incident of his daughter entering the military camp was spread, it would be a trivial matter for his position to be unsecured, and it would be a minor matter for him to be affected. He was a royal relative, and to put it bluntly, he was a clan relative who threatened the throne. For the emperor, it would be better to have fewer such people.

He wanted to kill Li Hao in case the matter was leaked.

However, he also knew that Li Hao could not die. What Changsun Wuji said when he said goodbye at Changting flashed in his mind over and over again, flashing again, flashing continuously, as if there was no cooling time.

"Li Hao, who else knows about this?" Li Daozong thought for a while and finally spoke.

"Ah? What's the matter?" Li Hao began to pretend to be stupid, hoping to get away with it.

"You try to pretend to be stupid again!" Li Daozong glared, his tone becoming cold.

Li Hao had no choice but to turn off the pretending stupid mode and said lightly: "I am the only one who knows."

He actually wanted to get those three personal guards together, and everyone would die together. This way, it would be easy to be a companion on the road, and he could chat or something, and he wouldn't be lonely and cold. How great! But his nature is still pure and he didn't do that in the end.

Li Daozong nodded and asked coldly: "Do you know my mood now?"

Li Hao's eyes rolled and decided to pretend to be stupid again: "Mr. Manager must be very happy now."

Li Daozong frowned when he heard this. He could hear that this guy was talking nonsense with him. He didn't point it out and asked with a sneer: "Why are you happy?"

Li Hao raised his eyebrows, looking as if he was taken for granted: "Shouldn't you be happy to see his daughter?"

Li Daozong was stunned when he heard this. He never expected that he would give such an answer. Well, this kid was a little nervous. He was silent for a moment and asked again: "Do you know that there is a rule in my Tang army that no women are allowed to be hidden in the military camp."

Li Hao looked confused when he heard this: "With such a military rule? Why don't I know?"

That confused look really makes life look like a play, and it all depends on acting skills.

Li Daozong clearly saw that he was pretending, but he couldn't poke him out. He was a little annoyed and said coldly: "Now you know, what do you think about this?"

He was having a showdown with Li Hao, and Li Hao also knew that as long as his answer could not satisfy him, he would be afraid that he would have blood splattered five steps in the next moment. The cause of death in the memorial sent back to the court was either "death in the battlefield" or "suddenly suffering from a bad disease."

Li Hao thought about it and suddenly made a bold decision, showing his philanthropic face, and laughed: "Mr. Li, although I am a soldier and you are the general manager, I seem to have grabbed a big handle for you now."

"Yes, this handle is quite small." Li Daozong responded with a sneer, with a cold murderous intent in his voice.

Li Hao seemed to be unaware and continued to smile and said, "Sir, I am a greedy person, you know."

Li Daozong: "I heard a little."

"That's easy." Li Hao rubbed his hands, looking like a scoundrel in the city. "I have heard a sentence before, but I wonder if the lord general manager has heard of it."

"Let me tell me."

Li Hao cleared his throat and said, "There is nothing in this world that cannot be solved by 500 guan. If it doesn't work, then another 500 guan."

"I have never heard of this sentence." Li Daozong narrowed his eyes and said coldly, "However, you have joined hands with Duke Lu to start the business of immortal wine and sold the wine outside of Guanzhong. In a year, if there is no 100,000 guan, you should have 50,000 guan. Will you still care about a mere 500 guan?"

Li Hao smiled and said, "What General Manager Li said is very true. In fact, this sentence is just the original words. Later, I changed it and replaced 5000 with 5000. Five thousand plus 5000, which is 10,000, haha."

"Ten thousand coins." Li Daozong took a deep breath. This was not a small amount. Even if he could take it out, it hurt a little, but he still pretended to be cold and said, "This is what you do."

Li Hao smiled and said, "Mr. Li, I haven't finished talking yet."

Li Daozong raised his eyebrows: "Oh? And?"

At this time, the daughter of Li Daozong on the side couldn't help but feel angry: "Dad, don't listen to his nonsense. This person is just a scoundrel. Dad, just lock him up!"

Li Hao smiled and said, "Sir, your daughter is interrupting here. It's not easy for me to say that. Can she go out first?"

Li Daozong hesitated for a moment, turned to her daughter and said, "Yu'er, you go out first."

"Dad——" The girl pouted unhappy, obviously very dissatisfied with Li Daozong's attitude of compromising Li Hao.

"Go out!" Li Daozong glared, and the girl was helpless and stomped her feet in anger, twisted her head and left.

When the girl left the tent, Li Daozong continued to look at Li Hao coldly and said, "Okay, now you can say it."

Li Hao suddenly knelt down at Li Daozong, kowtowed deeply, and said, "Please beg me your daughter!"

Li Daozong was stunned when he heard this. Without any warning, he suddenly turned around and pulled out the sword hanging on the wall, and pointed at Li Hao with a squeak: "Believe it or not, I will kill you now!"

Li Hao looked up at him and said calmly: "As long as the headmaster betroths my daughter to me, we will be a family!"

Li Daozong was shocked when he heard this, yes, as long as he became a family, Li Hao would not report himself, but... wouldn't he push his daughter into the fire pit by marrying such a traitor who has no ambition?

Just as he was hesitating, Li Hao added: "Sir, I have told you before that I have touched a precious daughter... Where, you must know how important the chastity of my daughter's family is, you must know more than me."

This sentence finally broke through Li Daozong's defense line. Although the ethics of the Tang Dynasty were not as strict as Song Ming, women's chastity was still very important. Yes, the chastity of their daughter was destroyed by Li Hao. It would be better to just marry him, which just happened to solve the problem of hiding women in the army. There was no need to kill Li Hao. After all, if you kill Li Hao, there would probably be big trouble after returning to the court. This seemed to be a good way to kill three birds with one stone.

The sword in Li Daozong's hand gradually lowered and finally poked on the ground. Li Hao knew that he had been convinced by him, so he rushed while the iron was hot and kowtowed a few more times: "Father-in-law Taishan is here, please be worshiped by your son-in-law."

Li Daozong was very resistant to Li Hao's act as his son-in-law, but he had to accept it because Li Hao's timing was so good. Although he solved three problems at once, Li Daozong was very unhappy and cursed depressedly: "Don't you beg!" After that, he returned to his position and sat down angrily.

Li Hao was about to get up now, and Li Daozong glared and shouted: "Have I asked you to get up!"

Li Hao laughed dryly and knelt down again. Li Daozong deliberately found fault: "Have I asked you to kneel down?"

Li Hao's eyes rolled, he lies on the ground, and then asked, "Father-in-law, are you satisfied?"

Li Daozong was speechless, a scoundrel, this is a scoundrel!

Li Daozong was silent for a while and asked, "Li Hao, you honestly explain that if you want to be my son-in-law, do you want to climb onto my boat?"

"My father-in-law, you're overthinking." Li Hao lay on the ground and replied with a smile, "Even if I want to pick a boat, I have to choose a big one, such as Lord Changsun Wuji, that's a building boat. You...hehe, at most it's a fishing boat."

The ridicule was a real ridicule, but Li Daozong knew that he was right. His ship was not big enough. It sounded nice to the royal family. It was his limit to being the Minister of Justice. If he went up, he was afraid of danger. Moreover, he could not interact with important officials in the court, otherwise he would face the danger of raiding his home.

Li Daozong sighed helplessly and asked, "Then why are you?"

Li Hao really wanted to tell him that he just wanted to save his life, but he was not an honest person, and it was not time to be honest now, so he replied: "Because I am a greedy person and lustful person, your daughter is still young now, but she has...hehe..."

He showed an obscene smile as he spoke. His acting skills were amazing, and it was not an exaggeration to take advantage of the little golden man.

Li Daozong couldn't stand it anymore and shouted angrily: "Get out! Don't let me see you!"

"Yes!" Li Hao waited for this sentence for a long time, and he got up and wanted to run away.

"Come back!" Li Daozong called him.

Li Hao suddenly stopped and felt a little cramped in his calf. Has he changed his mind? He turned around nervously and looked at Li Daozong.

Li Daozong looked at Li Hao with gritted teeth and said angrily: "I, Li Daozong, have been in the battlefield for so many years, and have never experienced this kind of experience today. I didn't expect that I would capsize in your small ditch. Li Hao, you are so capable!"

"Where, where." Li Hao laughed dryly, "My father-in-law, you praised me."

"You can't call me father-in-law before Li Ping married into your family for a day."

"Yes, my son-in-law... I understand."

"Also." Li Daozong's breath became a little heavy, and he seemed to be holding back his anger and said slowly, "The guards seem to be not suitable for you. I heard that your dishes are cooked well. After you go out later, you can report to Huotou Camp."

"Ah?" Li Hao was stunned when he heard this, and went to the kitchen team to be a chef?

"What? Not satisfied?" Li Daozong frowned and glared at him.

Li Hao hurriedly looked grateful and said, "The General Manager is indeed polite to his subordinates. He knows how to use everything. His subordinates have no other skills and are proficient in some cooking skills, hahaha."

He was smiling on his face and making a fuss in his heart. The good guard suddenly turned into a fire-headed army. Can it be a pleasure?

Li Daozong said again: "Li Ping can only stay in the army for the time being, but I have many people around me, so she can't stay by my side. If I let her wander around the military camp alone, I'm afraid something will happen sooner or later, so I'll let her go to Huotou camp with you. I will arrange a separate camp for you. You must help me take good care of her. You can't let her suffer any grievances or expose her identity. Otherwise, I will twist your head!"

Li Hao's eyebrows twitched when he heard this. What's this? He originally planned to gang up in the military camp and then return to the court. Now he has become a full-time nanny. This nanny is not easy to be. When he sees that little girl is not an obedient master.

"Why are you stunned? Have you heard me?" Li Daozong glared and scolded.

"Ah? Yes! I heard it!" Li Hao replied loudly.

Li Daozong immediately returned to his seat and wrote two warrants, handed them to Li Hao, and said, "Take Li Ping to Huotou Camp to report."

Li Hao took the order and looked at it. Suddenly he smiled and said, "Sir, you forgot to write something."

"What else?" Li Daozong looked at him in confusion.

"A ten thousand IOU!" Li Hao raised his eyebrows and smirked, "You don't want to betray the debt, do you?"
