121 121: Rising to the Top(2)

The next day was Song Jing's retirement, Li Chen was the princess, Song Jing's parents had died a long time ago, and naturally there was nothing to serve her aunt or anything like that.

It was rare that the people around him did not disappear early in the morning, and Li Chen simply rolled into his arms.

Song Jing woke up a long time ago, and since he became a princess, many habits have been almost changed. For example, he used to be fine, that is, he would get up at dawn, after washing, first go to the study to read a few pages, or practice a few words, then eat breakfast, and then walk around the yard to eat, and then go back to the study, work hard when it is time to work, relax when it is time to relax, and the combination of work and rest can be described as quite perfect.

Isn't it?

Otherwise, how could the crops in the plum village in the fields invariably hum the tune that Song Jing often beat when he beat the drums?

After he became a princess, although he only went to court on the fifteenth day of the first month, he usually had to go to work, so he also got up early, but when he got up, he had to be quiet, otherwise the princess who slept ignorant would have a big temper and could demolish the house. Usually when you are resting, it is best to wait for the princess to wake up before getting up, otherwise you have to be prepared to be found all day, because the princess said that you usually have to go to the court to save the book so early, forget it, if you don't see anyone early, I thought I was a ghost, and every day I woke up around me was cold.

But Song Jing thinks that the princess is good at everything, but there is a little bit of a bad thing, except for the fifteenth day of the new year, when she entered the palace to ask for peace, she got up early, and at any other time, she had to rub until the sun came out before she woke up.

And now the strong-blooded horses often don't go to court because of the next day's rest, and they don't control a little the night before, and they often toss the princess very tired, so even if they wake up very bored the next day, they lie on the couch and accompany the princess.

In the end, it is the pampered golden branches and jade leaves, and he should follow her a little.

It's just that every time he rests, Song Jing feels that his life is too erosive. Because the princess has a habit of rolling into his arms when she wakes up, and is easily impulsive in the morning, the princess's beauty is also very charming, and he is very happy to indulge in the princess's beauty...... So in the end, the two of them will inevitably become a situation where you pestering me and I pestering you, and they become a twisted mess, and this day is no exception.

After the passion, Li Chen lay on Song Jing's body, and his fingers still felt numb.

Song Jing's big palm rubbed back and forth on her โ–กโ–ก's back, "Tired? โ€

Li Chen slapped his mouth, leaving a tooth mark on his shoulder, and remained silent.

Song Jing was in pain, his brows furrowed slightly, and then he laughed in a low voice, "I'm the only one, you're tired?" "Then there are still three days and two heads want to raise a handsome little Langjun in the princess's mansion?

Of course, Song Jing was very clever not to say the latter sentence. No matter how stupid you are, you won't say this.

Li Chen still didn't say anything, turned over, and found a more comfortable position in his arms to lean on.

Song Jing also followed her, but she was under the thin quilt, and she didn't know where to go, which made Li Chen's body startled, and then she frowned, and her tone was lazy and coquettish: "I really don't want it, I'm tired." โ€

After Song Jing, Li Chen can be regarded as awakening, don't underestimate these young men who are less than twenty years old, no matter how cold and abstinent Song Jing looks, but once they open the meat, the desire that has not been satisfied for many years, and the freshness of tasting the joy of fish and water for the first time, make them seem to have endless strength, as long as you tease a little, they can fight back, and drown you in it with enthusiasm.

She felt that if she didn't show weakness, Song Jing might be able to spend a while with her.

It's okay to go crazy once in a while, but it's not necessary to be tired all the time...... Li Chen, who had palpitations, hurriedly diverted the topic and diverted Song Jing's attention.

"I heard that Li Jingxuan lost the battle."

Song Jing hugged her, one hand playing with her hair scattered on the couch a little carelessly, "Well, he is not good at military affairs, and it is normal to lose a battle." โ€

Li Chen laughed, "It's like you can win if you go." โ€

Song Jing bowed his head, stared at the top of her head, and his voice was rarely a little relaxed, "If I can't win, won't I be allowed to speak?" Even if a saint is on a personal expedition, there is no guarantee that he will be able to win the battle. โ€

Li Chen was dissatisfied, and got up and glared at him, "Don't say bad things about my father." โ€

Song Jing was very innocent, "What I'm saying is the truth, Taizong drove his own expedition back then, and he also lost battles." Victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, it doesn't matter if you lose, the most important thing is to know why you lost the battle. โ€

"Then you say, why did Li Jingxuan lose the battle?" She wanted to hear what Song Jing had to say.

Song Jing looked at her puffing appearance, a little embarrassed. Speaking of which, every time the saint sees him today, it is as if the two of them have an enmity, the saint is high, naturally he will not have anything to do with him, a courtier and a junior, but Song Jing is not a fool, how can he not understand that sometimes the task given to him by the saint is to find fault with nothing?

Song Jing had already heard from Zhou Jitong about the great feats that Li Chen had done to descend to him, to be honest, although Song Jing felt that he was not bad, he was definitely not good enough to make the princess quarrel with the saint for him.

Actually, what did the princess like about him?

Zhou Jitong said that it was probably because this proud girl of the sky was used to seeing the nobles of the city, and suddenly there was a Song Jing from a poor family, who was good at learning and learning, so she fell in love at first sight and fell in love at second sight, and she would not marry when she saw her third time.

But Song Jing thinks that this is not the case, at least he thinks that no princess will fall in love with a poor scholar from a poor family for no reason, what is the picture? Is he poor enough?

Anyway, Song Jing couldn't figure it out.

If he didn't understand, he simply didn't want to, and he didn't think to ask Li Chen what he liked about him.

There are some things that you can't just ask. He's a calm guy who can't figure it out now, and he will always figure it out later.

Song Jing looked at the little princess who was a little fried, smiled, and then smoothed the hair: "Don't worry, in fact, the reason is very simple, although Li Jingxuan has already arrived at the border, our army has traveled a long way, and there are many recruits who are warriors recruited in the pass at the beginning of the year, and they lack combat experience." In this case, if the main general is good at deploying troops and has the ability to stabilize the morale of the army, he can naturally overcome it. However, Li Jingxuan was a civil servant, he had never fought on the battlefield, he was not familiar with all things in the army, and he was not well versed in the art of war, so it was a mistake to let him go to crusade against Tibet. Just this year's newly recruited recruits may not be able to do it. โ€

Li Chen blinked.

"If you think about it, my Datang has more than 100,000 troops rushing to the front line to crusade against Tibet, which is certainly huge. Can you travel long distances, and the recruits have just arrived at the border, can they adapt? Can anyone get sick because they can't adapt? If these situations occur, will the commander-in-chief have the ability to stabilize the morale of the military? I heard that in the battle of Cao Gong's Chibi that year, Cao Gong attacked 50,000 naval armies of Shu and Wu with his 200,000 troops, and finally collapsed into an army. One is a mistake in decision-making, and the other is the result of soldiers traveling long distances and adapting poorly to a new environment. โ€

Song Jing said and laughed, "Yongchang, in fact, I thought about this matter before I had the imperial examination. At that time, in the wine shop outside Chang'an City, some people said that Li Jingxuan was an important minister of the country, known as talented, and he would definitely be able to beat Tubo to the ground, but I didn't think so. Anyone and everything is only useful if it is put in the right place. Li Jingxuan is a capable minister who governs the country, but he is not a good general who determines the country and stabilizes the country. โ€

In short, in any case, the imperial court decided to send Li Jingxuan and Liu Xianli to crusade against Tubo, which was completely inappropriate in Song Jing's opinion.

When Li Chen heard Song Jing say this, although he admitted that what he said was also true, he was still unconvinced, "Is there anyone more suitable than Li Jingxuan to be the head of Tao River?" โ€

Song Jing glanced at her, "Why not?" The official position is not high, as long as you choose the right person, you can get twice the result with half the effort. No matter how prestigious Li Jingxuan is in the court, he is also a civil servant. Our military generals such as General Pei Xingjian and General Cheng Wuting, these people have been on the battlefield for a long time, are good at communicating with brothers in the army, and must also know how to stabilize the morale of the army, and they have made great contributions to the Tang Dynasty, why can't they be used? โ€

Li Chen: "......"

Song Jing: "Isn't it because their officials are not as big as Li Jingxuan?" โ€

What he said was eloquent, and Li Chen was speechless for a while.

Song Jing looked at Li Chengan's glaring appearance, and immediately felt that she was very cute, reached out and grabbed her, and dropped a light kiss on her forehead, "I'm not saying bad things about your father, now the people of the Tang Dynasty live and work in peace and contentment, and it is also the grace of the saint." โ€

Li Chen: "Whatever you say is saying that my father is not using people properly. โ€

Song Jing: "I'm looking for a reason, Yongchang, you haven't been in the court, maybe you don't know, Wenchen and military generals have always looked at each other and hated each other." Literati often look down on military generals who are not informal, and military generals often feel that Wenchen's mother-in-law and mother-in-law are not allowed to let him lead troops to defeat the enemy army. โ€

Li Chen was silent and said, "You said that, but you reminded me." Perhaps today's British Gong Li Jingye will have the legacy of his grandfather. โ€

Song Jing: "......"

What does it mean to shoot yourself in the foot?

Song Jing felt that Li Chen had paid too much attention to Li Jingye's brothers and sisters, if she wanted a handsome Langjun, maybe Li Jingye would be the first choice, and now Li Jingye is already a five-grade general, a rising star of the imperial court generals.

Song Jing: "...... Although I believe that meritocracy is used, I also believe that a manager should not be too young. "For example, Li Jingye.
