Chapter 133: Longtan Tiger's Lair

After Li Shimin returned to Chongwen Pavilion, the eldest grandson Wuji had been waiting here for a long time.

Recently, the palace has been under martial law because of the previous rebellion. And Dong Chun, the general of the left reserve who was in charge of the palace guards, not only stayed in the palace day and night, but also took his cronies and subordinates to patrol around the palace from time to time every day. But anyone who is found to be derelict in his duties and absent from work, no matter what his family background, will be severely punished. makes the rules in this palace stricter day by day. Under such heavy pressure, even a gentleman with a deep background like Yang Jishan has become honest.

Li Shimin also correspondingly increased the vigilance of Chongwen Pavilion, not only increased the number of inspections of various departments, but also regained the rule of military attachés on duty at night, arranging at least three guards every day.

And today it is the turn of the eldest grandson Wuji to work the night shift, so he will not see this figure during the day.

"Want to sell your assembled ink armor to your colleagues in the palace? In fact, my cousin and Brother Wuda used to ask about it, saying where I got the handsome ink armor, which was very envious. Knowing that your price is not expensive, and then you will not worry about business if you make a reputation. ”

After hearing Li Shimin's thoughts, the eldest grandson Wuji immediately patted his chest and abdomen to reassure.

And then he said another thing: "I don't know if you have heard of the matter of Guozi Temple?"

"Guozijian?" refers to the fact that Guozijian has expanded the recruitment of 100 people?"

Li Shimin had naturally heard that this matter had caused quite a big fuss between the DPRK and China, and several parties were arguing endlessly. In addition, there are also reconsideration of the martial arts of Miyagi since the opening of the emperor, large-scale protection of the children of meritorious officials, and the reformulation of the "Surname Record", etc., which have caused frequent disputes between the DPRK and China. As a result, the Son of Heaven, who was far away in Liaodong, made a final decision, and ordered Nayan Suwei to implement this matter.

But it doesn't seem to have anything to do with him-

Originally, his father Li Yuan's plan was to let him be on duty in the Forbidden Palace, and by the way, he would not wash in the clan studies for a period of time, until Guozi Temple began to recruit students, and then he would mix up a quota.

But to this day, his father never mentions this stubble. At this time, the situation is indeed embarrassing. On the one hand, Li Shimin has made many meritorious contributions, and now he is a dignified person, a member of the three divisions, the founder of the country, and has a great future. Even if he enters Guozi Temple now, it will not be of much benefit to his future. On the other hand, there is a security issue, there are no too strong masters on the side of Guozi Temple, he is now in the past, and there are still a lot of risks. Not as good as now, only in the palace and Tang Guofu two places.

- These two places, it is not an exaggeration to say that they are Longtan Tiger's Den, and they are not afraid of assassins coveting. Even along the royal road, there are a large number of forbidden troops patrolling.

The key is that Li Shimin himself doesn't really want to go. In Guozi Temple, the only thing he is interested in is the Great Sui Wudian, he has seen the real original through Yang Ying, and when it comes to collecting books, Chongwen Pavilion is much stronger than Guozi Temple.

As for the background, Qianniu is a position, which is more useful than any background.

- If that is the case, why did he bother to look at Su Wei's face?

So now, neither his father nor he has ever mentioned Guozi Temple. However, he thought that today's eldest grandson Wuji suddenly asked about this matter, and it would not be for no reason.

"Brother Wuji, doesn't he want to enter the Guozi Temple?"

"Yes, but I'm not sure. ”

The eldest grandson Wuji frowned slightly: "There is no paper on the second path of martial arts, the Guozi Temple is just mediocre, even if I go in, it seems that I can't learn anything." ”

Their eldest grandson is also a famous general, as a branch of the Yuan clan, there is no shortage of secret books of exercises, military books and war strategies. In terms of poetry and articles, his uncle Gao Shilian is also a figure appreciated by Xue Daoheng and Cui Zujun, the grandmasters of the literary world. If it weren't for Gao Shilian's self-belief that he was a Northern Qi clan, and it was not suitable to make friends with celebrities, he might be included in the forest of contemporary Wenzong now.

"I really can't learn anything over there, Brother Wuji, when you enter the Guozi Temple, you should be a protégé of the Son of Heaven, right?"

Li Shimin smiled: "As far as I know, the students from Guozi Temple in the past few years have indeed paid more attention to the first son of heaven than ordinary noble children. Brother Wuji, if you want to make a name for yourself and revive your family business, you must go on the road of Guozi Temple. ”

After all, the eldest grandson Wuji is different from him, and there are not many resources left from his father's generation. The entire eldest grandson family is also in decline. If you want to go further in your career in the future, the identity of a student of Guozi Temple is a good background.

"The way to go?"

The eldest grandson Wuji's eyes were hesitant, still difficult to decide, and then he asked Li Shimin: "Then Pilu Sha, don't you want to enter the Guozi Temple to study one or two? ”

"Me?"

Li Shimin shook his head with a fixed look in his eyes: "After the new marriage with Guanyin, I want to be transferred to the border army and fight for the country——"

Since the opening of the emperor, except for some people who are particularly trusted by the royal family, few people have been able to serve for more than one year in the position of Qianniu. This is to make room for those who come after you.

But even if there is no order from above to kick him out of the forbidden army, he wants to be transferred to the border army in a few months.

He is no longer as pessimistic about his career as he was when he first entered Luoyang. Status, authority, and power are still very necessary for people like him. He didn't want his wife to encounter a crisis like the Dou Mansion again.

That being the case, you might as well use your own knife to fight a splendid future in the borderland.

If one day, he can hold the Zhu Kingdom in the middle of the court, then Han King Yang Xuan and Su Yi'an dare to be so presumptuous?

"Border Army?"

The eldest grandson Wuji frowned, and looked at Li Shimin suspiciously: "Why do you suddenly want to go to the border army?"

He is mainly worried about his sister, and soon after he got married, his husband is going to travel far away.

"Serve the country, can't you?"

Li Shimin smiled: "Brother Wuji, don't look at me like this, but in fact, I have also thought that there will be a person in the future who can learn from Huo Bi Yao Feng Wolf Juxu and step through the lack of Helan Mountain!"

"What a wolf, stepping through Helan Mountain!"

This majestic voice came from downstairs. At the same time, there was a large group of strong footsteps.

Li Shimin and Eldest Sun Wuji glanced at each other, and then they both looked solemn and bowed in the direction of the staircase. Until Dong Chun's figure appeared at the entrance of the ladder, they all saluted: "The last general will see the general!"

At this time, the general in the mouth of the two of them did not refer to Dong Chun's official position, but to the honorable position. As early as the year of the emperor's opening, Dong Chun was already promoted to the position of Shangkaifu and the prince of Hanqu County; after being transferred to the post of general of Zuo Beishen, he was promoted to the general by the Son of Heaven, only inferior to Shangzhu and Zhuguo.

It's just that to Li Shimin's surprise, Tang Yuanhua, who is not driving the embroidered clothes, is actually behind him.

"No need for such a courtesy!"

Dong Chun waved his sleeves casually, and sat down on a seat with a golden knife, and said with appreciation: "This general will inspect all departments today, and the law is strict on your side of Chongwen Pavilion, and the order is prohibited, and it is the crown of all departments! ”

Li Shimin couldn't help laughing: "It's just a matter of duty, I don't dare to be General Dong's praise!"

"Now that the palace is forbidden to the army, only your department is the most worry-free, what's wrong with a few praises?"

Dong Chun snorted, then turned around and said, "Father-in-law Tang, don't you have something to ask Li Erlang?"

That Tang Yuanhua couldn't help frowning slightly, looking at Dong Chun with a hesitant expression, as well as the people behind him.

Seeing this, Dong Chun immediately smiled slightly, and flicked his sleeves: "A group of blind guys, all go away for me." Block the downstairs for thirty steps, and there shall be no idle people, etc. ”

When everyone upstairs kicked downstairs and left, Dong Chun opened a pair of tiger eyes and stared at Tang Yuanhua.

The latter laughed and asked calmly: "In recent months, there have been many villains in Luoyang City, and they have not been quelled for nearly a month, even after Tailingwei entered the city, the situation has not improved much. I heard Sima Liancheng say that Li Yi and you are smart and natural, full of armor, and often have unique opinions about the things around you. This time, maybe there will be a different way of thinking to solve those traitors, so I came to ask Li Yitong for advice!"

When Li Shimin heard this, he couldn't help but be a little stunned, and looked at Tang Yuanhua: "This seems to be something that can be said by the position of the last general?"

"Let's try a word or two!"

Tang Yuanhua accentuated his tone: "I don't think Li Yi wants to stay in the palace city all the time with you?"

Li Shimin was stared at by Tang Yuanhua's burning gaze, and he felt extremely helpless. Thinking that this matter is helpless, can he solve it with his little Qianniu preparation?

But he only hesitated for a moment, but decided to speak. As this Tang Gonggong said, these traitors are too rampant, and if they are not resolved, they and their families will be threatened.

I really don't want to enter the palace every day on duty, and I carry a large number of guards.

"If it were me, I would definitely start with the Ministry of Engineering!"

"Ministry of Works?"

Tang Yuanhua was stunned, and glanced at Dong Chun, who was also confused next to him, and then his eyes condensed slightly: "Go on, why the Ministry of Industry, what is the reason for this?"

Li Shimin didn't answer at first, but asked tentatively: "I heard that after some traitors killed people and set fire in the city, they were able to calmly evacuate before the forbidden army arrived. Presumably, before, Xiuyiwei and Henan County Ya also considered that these people escaped through the drainage ditch under Luoyang?

"Not bad!"

Tang Yuanhua said coldly: "A long time ago, several people in the embroidered guard had this suspicion, but after more than ten days of investigation, they have gained nothing. Left and right Wuhou Wei's side, even ambushed soldiers in the underground ditch for days, but they also returned in vain. Therefore, several old detectives are now inclined to these anti-thieves, who have a large number of stealth and hidden magic weapons, and even master the method of flying. Some of the clues we found later confirmed this. ”
