Li Qing continued: "The three-legged force is the remnant force of the former emperor headed by the queen mother, the first emperor was ignorant and delusional to replace the people of Emperor Taizu and enable new people, but as a result, a bunch of incompetent people who saw the wind and steered the rudder were activated. After the death of the first emperor, these people were unwilling to fall silent, and took refuge in the empress dowager to subvert the dynasty and follow Emperor Wu. I think they are a group of people with long heads, not to mention that Emperor Taizu is still alive, even if they die, they may not be able to fight Xue Yu with their ability, that is the prime minister of the three dynasties, not to mention that there are other capable ministers left by Emperor Taizu, unless they wait until Xue Yu and others die, and then raise the little emperor to waste, they will have this opportunity. “

When Li Qing said that he was rising, he heard the sound of plopping, and turned his head to see that the civil officials on the chairs around him had slipped to the ground and knelt down one by one, and the military attachés were also kneeling in a row.

Kong Yu said tremblingly: "The ministers have never taught Li to join the army. Li Qing was stupid and thought: Is it so serious? What did he just say?

Emperor Taizu waved his hand and said, "Let's all go down, you should pretend that you didn't hear these words." The officials lined up to leave like an amnesty, and when they went out, their hands and feet were still weak, and someone said: "Li is too bold to join the army." Kong Yu glanced over, the man stopped talking, and everyone clearly knew that this matter could not be discussed again.

Only Zhu Biao knelt in the hall and left, and Emperor Taizu said: "I won't blame him, you can go too." Seeing this, Zhu Biao retreated.

Seeing that only he and his father were left in the hall, Li Qing ran to the side of Emperor Taizu and sat down, supported his face with his arms on the table, and said coquettishly: "What did I say that was very rebellious?" Let them be so? ”

Emperor Taizu nodded his head and said: "Every word you say is a great rebellion, no matter how bad the emperor and the queen mother are, you can't criticize it in front of everyone." Now that there's no one, say whatever you want. ”

Li Qing nodded and got up and continued: "The biggest problem now is the problem of the border pass, the defense force of our border pass is actually very strong, there is Ningyuan General Li Ping in the west, Zhongwu General Zhu Yi in the east, and the auxiliary general was transferred to Liangzhou partly because Liangzhou produces grain, and the more important reason is for him to contain Yulin Pass." ”

Li Qing saw that his father did not react, and continued: "If the Turks march in, ninety percent of them will attack here, and the reason is on the Yulin guards, this failure is ostensibly to blame the emperor, but fundamentally it can only be blamed on Emperor Taizu for uploading the wrong throne, and the emperor is not a candidate to be the emperor at all."

Emperor Taizu asked, "Then who do you think is the right person?" Li Qing said: "How do I know what the situation was back then, if there was no war at the border pass, the first emperor could still be an emperor guarding the city, but unfortunately, he wanted too much, he wanted too much, he wanted prestige, and he wanted to replace his father's position, and he ended up killing himself." ”

Emperor Taizu coughed and said, "Don't mention him, you should talk about the current situation at the border pass." ”

Li Qing said: "The current situation in Yulin Pass is that Sima Yunfei is too tender to command all the people, he can only control the power left by the general of the town army. Xue Yu understood Sima Yunfei's situation, so he transferred Yang Ye to help. Yang Ye did help a lot, but unfortunately the people under him didn't think so, they wanted to support Yang Ye to take the position. The first emperor was in the border for three years, and also cultivated his own power, those people are now sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight, really wait until the time of the fight, the three groups of people for military merit, it is good not to fall into the ground, this war is really precarious. ”

Emperor Taizu also sighed, he also thought so.

Emperor Taizu picked up the teacup and gently scraped the tea leaves floating on it with the lid of the cup, and asked casually: "If this country is yours, what will you do?" ”

Li Qing said: "Needless to say, I must have learned from Emperor Taizu to pat his ass and leave, how good it is to take beauties around the mountains and rivers, fuck this leisure." ”

Emperor Taizu's hand shook, and the tea almost buckled on himself, but fortunately, Li Qing's hand was quick to hold on. Li Qing put the teacup in the hand of Emperor Taizu and said, "Be careful that it burns you, how old are you, you can shake your hands like this when you drink tea." “

Emperor Taizu's forehead was bulging and he said, "If you don't say such rebellious words, my hands won't tremble." Emperor Taizu pushed the teacup to the side of the table, he didn't want to be burned, let alone choke on the tea.

Li Qing hehe It's a pity that he didn't know where he went with Emperor Taizu, otherwise my father wouldn't have let me go. ”

Emperor Taizu thought to himself, aren't you talking nonsense, if you can let Zhu Biao go, you still need to look for you, Zhu Biao's elm pimple, no matter how you say it, can't you leave him, do you want to let an emperor who has abdicated go up to retreat from the enemy? And you're a hairy girl, okay, you treat yourself as a kid, what can you do if you get married in the future.

Li Qing continued to ask: "Father knows the hussar general, the teachers are very evasive on weekdays, and never mention this person, and my son only knows the hussar general's surname is Zhu, does he have something to do with my master?" Can you tell me about this person? ”

Emperor Taizu said: "This person is a wooden head, you want him to go to the country and the people, forget it, other people also know that this road is not passable and they don't mention it." Is there any other way to do it? ”

Li Qing said: "It's not a good strategy, there will be a way when the time comes, after I arrive at Yulin Pass, I will stir up the water there even more, let them unite the front first, and then retreat the enemy together?" ”

Emperor Taizu said: "This is a little interesting, but it is easier said than done, I will wait and see." You will rest tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow you will go to Yulin Pass. ”

Li Qing was surprised: "This will let me go?" ”

Emperor Taizu nodded and said, "Do you still want to go back to Beijing with me?" ”

Li Qing said: "Then if I come to eat with you at night, my mother will definitely cry again." ”

That night, Li Qing went to Zhu Biao first and told him that he was leaving, and then went to find the concubine, the concubine was very sad to learn that Li Qing was leaving, Li Qing couldn't bear to finally agree to accompany her to Luoyang and then go north, the concubine was very moved, but the emperor Taizu was unhappy, he felt that Li Qing was too kind of a woman.

Emperor Taizu reprimanded Li Qing and said: "Since you have to separate sooner or later, why should you change your itinerary because of your mother, this is a great opportunity for you to make contributions, go to Yulin Pass to solve things as soon as possible, you can correct your name one day earlier, and tell the world one day earlier, do you still want to be a man for a lifetime?" ”

Li Qing only said a word and let Emperor Taizu wave his sleeves away, Li Qing said: "Father is serious, but it is just a few more days of travel, and this journey has been delayed for two months, and it is not bad for those days." What's more, making contributions has never been what I think in my heart, why talk about telling the world, I just want to be filial to my father and mother and let my Li Qing's family live a good life. "Li Qing almost didn't say what the border war has to do with me, and what the people of the Tang Dynasty have to do with me.
