Chapter 193: Summoning the Old Ministry

The eldest grandson Wujian glanced at her husband embarrassedly, but Li Shimin was indifferent to this and had to keep his mouth shut.

"I'm relieved when I'm done, remember not to feed too much in the future, and don't cover it too thickly, although it's autumn now, but for a child as big as him, it's good to have a thin quilt at night." After Yuan Ziyan finished explaining, he gave an eviction order: "I'm tired, you are all very busy, go back." ”

Li Shimin was stunned, knowing that Yuan Ziyan's temper was twisted, and he couldn't resist her, so when he got up, he still pulled the eldest grandson Wujian and said sincerely: "Ziyan, you delivered the baby for Cheng Qian, and saved him again yesterday, I decided to let Cheng Qian recognize you as his stepmother in the future." ”

The eldest grandson Wujian glanced at her husband in surprise, this was clearly not what she meant, but Li Shimin was good at advocating, and immediately felt cool in his heart. At the same time, the doubts in her heart were even greater, Yuan Ziyan was inexplicably concerned about her son, but her husband just asked his son to recognize her as his stepmother, could it be said that he wanted Yuan Ziyan to replace him in the future?

Yuan Ziyan was also thinking, although she woke up after fainting, her brain seemed to be still in a semi-comatose state, stepmother? What is a stepmother? Yuan Ziyan was stunned for a while, and finally figured it out, that is what the godmother meant!

"Thank you for your kindness, but I'm not married yet, and I don't have any children, so it's not good to recognize a godson. It's better to call me aunt like other children in the palace, it's better to listen to this way. Yuan Ziyan said.

"Purple Smoke ......"

Without waiting for Li Shimin to finish speaking, the eldest grandson Wujian said with a smile: "Then according to what Ziyan said, Cheng Qian will call his aunt in the future." ”

Li Shimin was slightly regretful. Then he sent a lot of rare gifts, which filled half the room with a shiny light. Looking at these treasures, Yuan Ziyan had no surprise at all.

I can't bring it with me. Death can't be taken away, for Yuan Ziyan, it can't be brought with him through the crossing, and he can't be taken away from the escape, the only thing that remains unchanged is his enthusiasm for life.

This year's winter seems to have come very early, and there is still more than a month before the Spring Festival, and there have been several heavy snowfalls. Remember to be here before. At Yuan Ziyan's suggestion, Empress Xiao held a unique ice lantern banquet and red envelope drawing. The atmosphere was very lively, everyone was smiling, neither cold nor tired.

It's still snowing. Yuan Ziyan felt a chill to the bone. I don't know if it's because of the lack of warmth in my heart.

Of course, this is just Yuan Ziyan's personal feelings, but the big names in the world are fighting hotly, Li Liang is the emperor, Dou Jiande changes the name of the country, the annexation of annexation, and the hegemony of hegemony, they are all very busy.

And today it is above the court. Li Yuan was indeed in high spirits, and his clothes were very thin. But his face was full of red light and his face was full of energy. The ministers in the audience all whispered that something good must have happened.

The truth was even better than they imagined, Li Yuan actually nodded at Yuan Ziyan with a smile first, Yuan Ziyan was stunned, and roughly guessed that today's topic would have something to do with him.

"Originally, I was also tempted, and I didn't want Ziyan to say it, but Xue Ju suddenly fell seriously ill and couldn't afford to be sick. According to reliable sources, he died of illness the day before yesterday, and his eldest son Xue Renguo took his place. Li Yuan said with a smile.

Xue Renguo, known as Xue Rengao in history, is not too important a figure in this book, and avoids conflict with Yang Gao, so we still call Xue Renguo.

Besides, after listening to Li Yuan's words, everyone showed surprise, and their eyes were full of awe when they looked at Yuan Ziyan. Respect is understandable, and fear is easy to say, Yuan Ziyan has the ability to curse people to death!

Because Yuan Ziyan has always been in the palace, and he has never had contact with people outside the palace, of course there is no need to send someone to destroy Xue Ju, it is really a god!

Including Li Jiancheng, Li Shimin, Li Mi and others, they were also very surprised, they knew that Yuan Ziyan was very good, but they didn't expect that they could even predict such an accurate thing, and they were really not mortals.

"I heard that Xue Renguo was cruel and lewd, and he was extremely stingy, and many of his soldiers were not convinced. However, if anyone escapes, if they are recovered, they will be tortured, and life is worse than death. Speaking of this, Li Yuan frowned slightly, and said: "Those who lose the hearts of the people lose the world, and now it is the time of Xue Ju's great funeral, and the raid at this time will definitely be a complete victory." I wonder who will want to go? ”

Li Mi came out again, and said in a deep voice: "The minister is willing to go!" ”

Yuan Ziyan thought about it, and also came out and said: "Your Majesty, the people are also willing to follow Xing Guogong and share your worries for Your Majesty." ”

Li Yuan nodded with satisfaction, in fact, he himself also meant this, now that Xue Ju is sick and dead, it is the most cumbersome time for the work to be handed over, the probability of winning this battle is very high, and it is possible to solve it quickly. Li Mi has no foundation in the court, and he is still excluded everywhere, if this credit is given to him, he will not be in a very difficult position in the future.

I have to say that Li Yuan still admires Li Mi very much and intends to cultivate. So he nodded and said, "In this way, the royal brother will personally lead 200,000 soldiers and horses, and Ziyan will temporarily lead the army to the position of division......"

"Father!" A voice sounded, interrupting Li Yuan's words, who else has the courage to do so except Li Jiancheng. Li Yuan frowned and said unhappily: "What do you want to play?" ”

"Father, Xing Guogong has led the army in a good way, which is obvious to all. But 200,000 soldiers and horses is not a small number, not everyone admires and admires Xing Guogong, if there is a change in the middle, it is a catastrophe! Li Jiancheng said it politely this time, although he didn't pick Li Mi's reason, but the implication was that he didn't want to give him such a big military power.

Exactly!

The ministers echoed one after another, and Li Yuan also wavered a little, but the Son of Heaven had no jokes, how could he take back what he had already said? And if he repeatedly embarrasses Li Mi, how will he work for himself in the future?

In fact, Li Jiancheng had already learned the news, and of course he had thought of his rhetoric, and suggested: "In the old department of Xing Guogong, there are many heroes, and there are very few people who have returned to obedience so far. It's better to let Xing Guogong lead the troops out of the customs and collect the old department, if he can get his wish, wouldn't it be more meritorious than the extermination of Xue Renguo? ”

Li Yuan's eyes lit up, this method is good, it can not only allow Li Mi to prove his loyalty, but also the risk factor has been greatly reduced.

"What does the royal brother think?" Li Yuan asked with a smile, Li Mi still had no waves, and arched his hand: "The minister's order." ”

"Okay, the royal brother can lead 50,000 soldiers and horses, go out of the customs to gather the old department, and set off in a few days." Li Yuan said seemingly generously.

In fact, 50,000 is nothing, if Li Mi is reversed, it will not become much of a climate, it can only be said that with self-defense, there is no possibility of fighting with Wang Shichong at all.

"Father, the son is willing to lead the army to recruit Xue Renguo, and he will not return if he is not victorious!" Li Jiancheng stepped forward again, solemnly knelt down and saluted, looking very determined.

Li Yuan was very happy about his son's change, and when he was thinking about whether to agree, Li Shimin was unwilling to come out of the list, and said: "Father, the eldest brother is the respect of the prince, and there must be no mistakes. Although Xue Juxin was mourned and Xue Renguo was ferocious, I heard that there was no shortage of loyal generals under his command, and this battle was bound to be a hard battle. The sword is ruthless, and the son is willing to go out for the eldest brother. If you are defeated, the blame lies with your sons, and if you succeed, the credit lies with your eldest brother! ”

This is a good thing to say, but everyone is not stupid, fighting a war and leading soldiers, whose credit is who's, the military merit book remembers clearly, meticulously, how can there be a gift.

But Li Shimin also responded a lot, the reason is that Li Jiancheng has become the crown prince, and he doesn't train his soldiers and horses much on weekdays, so it's okay if he is killed, but if he is captured, it will be difficult to do.

"Father, even if the son can't, you can let the fourth brother go to ......"

Monkey business! Li Yuan's face immediately became gloomy, Li Jiancheng was still reliable, but Li Yuanji really didn't find out what he was good at, except for eating, drinking, and having fun. Li Yuan was not fighting openly and secretly between his sons, thinking again and again, in order to ensure that he would win, he finally made Li Shimin the commander of this campaign.

Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji's faces are ugly, and they still have an attitude of approval of the second child's ability to fight, and when Li Shimin comes back, he will definitely make a fortune.

Li Shimin was very happy, and then thanked him and said: "Father, this battle can only be won, not defeated." Erchen knows that he has a heavy responsibility on his shoulders, so he must not be without a military advisor in the army. ”

Speaking of this, Yuan Ziyan grinned, wouldn't it be himself? Sure enough, Li Shimin said again: "Yuan Ziyan is witty, and his father personally agreed to his position as a military advisor. Erchen dared to ask Yuan Ziyan to accompany the army. ”

"Your Majesty, I ......"

Without waiting for Yuan Ziyan to finish speaking, Li Yuan immediately nodded and agreed, anyway, she just wanted Yuan Ziyan to go and help, and she also agreed just now.

Li Mi coughed lightly and signaled Yuan Ziyan not to resist the order, Yuan Ziyan glared at Li Shimin unhappily, feeling that he was clearly deliberate.

After retreating from the court, Yuan Ziyan was sullen, but Li Shimin didn't have nothing to say this time, but hummed the song and went back first.

"Ziyan, in my opinion, with Li Shimin's bravery, this battle can be won in less than a month." Li Mi, who was traveling with him, comforted.

"Big brother, how long will it take for you to come back?" Yuan Ziyan asked suddenly.

Li Mi thought for a while and said, "Although it is not a war, it takes a lot of time to find your brothers, and it takes three months to find the brothers, and it takes ...... long time."

"Will you come back when you're long?" Yuan Ziyan asked seriously.

Li Mi was stunned, and finally understood the meaning of Yuan Ziyan, asking him if he had a rebellious heart. Li Mi sighed heavily, looked up at the sky with his back hand, and said: "I have been so lonely and ostracized, even if I have a rebellious heart, these 50,000 soldiers and horses will definitely not be united. ”

"You mean, there's going to be a spy in there?" Yuan Ziyan asked in surprise.

Li Mi nodded: "I was originally a minister, and Li Jiancheng and others are hostile, although Your Majesty is commensurate with my brother, it is normal to have doubts." I'm afraid that there will be a lot of eyeliner in this army, all monitoring my every move. ”

Saying this, Yuan Ziyan breathed a sigh of relief, and it was recorded in the history books that Li Mi took these and betrayed Li Tang again, and finally ended up in a bad end. But if he has already accepted his fate and sees through the current situation, it is also a good way out for Mingzhe to protect his life. (To be continued......)
