Chapter 444: Sorrowful Joy
Li Yuan came and went in a hurry.
Originally, he also wanted to see Li Jing, but it can be seen that his daughter is quite protective of him, so he doesn't want to make any extraneous branches.
In fact, Li Jing has always been a usable person in his mind, of course, until now, he will not use Li Jing to lead the troops.
As for the blame for Li Ding'an's incident, he was blamed on Pharmacist Li...... As a last resort, Li Yuan would never do such a stupid thing.
First, Li Jing is a meritorious person no matter what, and he is very honest in Chang'an, if he still forcibly blames others, Li Jing's son-in-law may not be good, but the first thing to lose is his Li family's reputation.
Second, how many people who raise troops to compete for dominance in the world will take care of their fathers, brothers and children? What's more, Li Jing is only Li Pozhi's father-in-law, so it is even worse, and pushing himself and others, Li Yuan will naturally not do such a useless move.
Just like when he set up troops to go south, how could he care about the lives of his family members?
In fact, don't say it's him Li Yuan, look at the heroes who have risen up in the past few years, who hasn't reported the mind of becoming benevolent if they don't succeed, and fighting for that opportunity?
Yang Xuangan, Li Mi, Wang Shichong...... And so on, without exception.
And if those who want to do great things can't even do this, it is better to return to the countryside as soon as possible, otherwise the result will definitely harm others and themselves, and end up with a dead family.
Of course, even if these people's hearts are more ruthless than God, if they can't fight for that position, the end will be extremely miserable.
What Li Po and his wife said is not false at all, this road is a road of no return, don't think about turning back if you go up, and being unkind can only be said to be the most basic standard.
So, in Li Yuan's opinion, Pharmacist Li doesn't even owe the weight of personal hostages now.
In fact, not only Li Yuan understands this, but Li Jing also understands that as long as he doesn't dangle in front of others, he who lives in Chang'an seems to be in danger, as long as his son-in-law doesn't really lead his troops to Chang'an City, the possibility of his head hitting the ground is very small.
When Li Yuan came to the princess's mansion and talked to his daughter, Li Jing was drinking tea in a small courtyard in the mansion.
After being unlucky for so many years, Li Jing's ability to bend and stretch is definitely no worse than Han Xin, and he has been sheltered in Princess Pingyang's mansion for a long time, he has lived a very good life, and he restricts his family from being born at will.
On weekdays, he concentrates on writing, and when he is free, he walks around the garden in the house, and occasionally listens to others talk about how Li Ding'an is, but he doesn't care, and he is almost a hermit in the mountains and forests.
When Li Yuan came to the mansion today, he didn't need Li Xiuning to say anything, he himself said first that he would avoid it and never touch Li Yuan's moldy head.
And Li Yuan's intention, he can also guess.
His son-in-law...... At that time, he just felt that he was born with talents, but today it seems that he looks down on others.
Several years have passed in a hurry, the world is chaotic, and wars are everywhere, but this son-in-law has risen from the wind and become a prince of a land, and the complexity of his heart cannot be understood by outsiders.
Thinking about my life, I have spent a lot of hard work, but in the end I still achieved nothing, but people are young and ...... In contrast, Li Jing also smiled bitterly, and it can only be said that it is time and fate.
At the beginning, he was inevitably resentful of his son-in-law, but later, as his son-in-law's reputation became more and more famous, many people in Chang'an were even disturbed, and now he has become the great enemy of the Li family......
Li Jing was worried, but he couldn't help but feel a little proud, then Li Po was not only his Li Jing was a student, but also his Li Jing's son-in-law.
He Li Jing has achieved nothing, and it is true that he is under the fence, but the student is a hero of the world who does not bow his head to the Turks.
Speaking of which, there is nothing strange about this kind of mentality of pinning hopes on the younger generations if you don't succeed, but it also shows that people will never have this kind of thinking when they are old.
Li Jing has fallen into countless pits in his life, but now he has fallen into the pit of his son-in-law.
And Li Yuan is in the eyes of Li Jing, it's just like that, he is not a wise monarch, if it weren't for the chaos in the world, he would occupy such a position in Taiyuan, and no one would be able to take his turn Li Yuan entered Chang'an and called him a lonely widow.
Especially in terms of employing people, let alone Emperor Wen Yang Jian, it is estimated that he can't even compare with Yang Guang, this person attaches too much importance to his background and has no room for people.
It's a few of his sons and daughters, who look like they're going to be blue.
Therefore, what Li Yuan came to Princess Pingyang's Mansion at this time, Li Jing guessed eight or nine as soon as he guessed it.
Li Yuan holds his own fame and likes the art of vertical and horizontal.
Princess Binh Duong and his son-in-law are not clear...... I guess this is another soldier who wants to surrender without a fight, right?
It didn't take long for someone to report to him, and the emperor was gone.
When he turned around, Li Jing asked his subordinates to get the outer robe, and as soon as he put on Li Xiuning, he sent someone to recruit him.
After Li Xiuning sent his father away, he didn't move the place, he poured himself a drink in the main hall of the mansion, and when Li Jing came, he only looked at it, and knew that Her Royal Highness the princess was in a bad mood.
Li Xiuning is a good drinker, but since she started the army, she has been extremely restrained in drinking, and at this time, her thoughts are not in the world, but she is pouring cup after cup into her mouth.
Seeing Li Jing coming, he waved his hand gently, "Li Changshi came just in time, come, drink a few cups with me." ”
Li Jing was not restrained, he sat down on the table after giving a salute, stroked his beard and said with a smile: "It's okay to drink some, it's just to use wine to drown your sorrows, and the wise don't do it." ”
Li Xiuning glanced at him, raised his neck and drank another glass, poured it casually, and said, "Li Changshi can be called a wise man, what am I ...... Now there are a lot of troubles, and I need advice from a long history. ”
Li Jing said: "The Supreme came and went in a hurry, it doesn't look like he has something important to discuss with His Highness, right?" ”
The corners of Li Xiuning's mouth twitched slightly, and the wine glass was raised to his mouth and put down, "Why did Li Changshi ask knowingly, now that my father can discuss with me, can there be anything else?" ”
Li Jing is quite thick-skinned, a little ridicule is nothing at all, and he has served under Li Xiuning so far, in fact, the two of them already know each other very well, and it is impossible to pretend to be confused.
After a deep sigh, Li Jingcai said, "How about the Supreme Highness?" ”
Li Xiuning pinched the wine glass and said lazily: "How else can I ......?"
Speaking of this, Li Xiuning slammed his wine glass on the case, "The battle is imminent, no matter whether you win or lose, how can you talk about it?" If you win, can your father still listen to my persuasion and let others be called ministers? If I am defeated, can others still listen to my words and not take the land?
I'm not Su Zhang, what can I say about the two strikes, can they be happy? ”
The resentment that came to his face made Li Jing stunned.
Over there, Li Xiuning poured another glass without hesitation, and threw the wine glass on the table, "After this battle, I will go out of Beijing for a trip, let Li Wu and them prepare their bags, it is estimated that they will have to leave in less than a month, Li Changshi will be in charge of everything in the house, and wait for me to return...... Hehe, I don't know if I can come back after I go......"
After speaking, Li Xiuning had already gotten up, "I drank a little too much, Changshi will go by himself, and I will also go to the back house to rest." ”
Before the words fell, the man had already walked away.
Li Jing was stunned, this doesn't seem right, I didn't say anything, my brain was a little messy, but I still got up and sent Li Xiuning away.
When Li Xiuning disappeared with his servants, Li Jing calmed down and pondered for a while, and then he was a little sudden, and couldn't help but smile bitterly, the people of his old Li family were really cunning.
In fact, if you think about it, everything has been said clearly, but he has made the same old mistake and takes his own family too seriously.
The people were obviously telling him that he was going to Jindi for a trip in the future, and the purpose was to make it clear, and then let him stay in the princess's mansion and not think about anything else.
Moreover, they were afraid that he would propose to go north with him, and if they refused, they would hurt their feelings, so they didn't allow him to say anything and pretended to be drunk and slipped away.
Thinking of this, Li Jing couldn't cry or laugh, because he had lived for such a long time, and he was played by a little woman, and he still wanted to help others give advice.
should have thought of it a long time ago, how could a person like Li Sanniang use wine to drown his sorrows and complain about his father in front of outsiders?
Well, it's not like he's done it once or twice with hindsight, it's not bad this time, in terms of emotional intelligence, although Li Jing is not an imbecile, compared with many people, he is more than a step worse.
…………………………
Of course, Li Xiu, who had played some tricks at this time, would rather not be proud.
Hurriedly returned to the back house, the wine was a little rising, freshened up, then retreated, sat quietly on the couch in the room, held his forehead and began to ponder this bad thing.
Her father was apparently not so confused, and he would wait until the war had passed before letting her go north.
What this means, Li Xiuning knows very well.
This battle is inevitable, and the results of victory should not be too great, because even if Li Po is defeated and returns to Jinyang, with the support of the two states, the Tang army's hope of regaining Jinyang is very slim.
If it is defeated, it will be not to mention, Jindi will be completely eroded, and even Chang'an will have to be shaken fiercely.
Therefore, no matter whether she wins or loses, she is estimated to go to see Li Po as a Tang envoy, but the chips in her hand are different.
Thinking of this, Li Xiuning's heart moved, and she wanted to laugh, but she couldn't laugh, because even if they met, what should they say to that person?
Even if she had that opportunity, could she really be ruthless and attract that person to Chang'an to be killed?
Will that person force her to stay in Jinyang......
After drinking, his face burned even more, and Li Xiuning rolled around on the couch a few times in distraught, but he couldn't help but think of all the things in the clouds back then.
Those days, as short as a white horse, but as long as a lifetime, thought stupidly, and before she knew it, she let out a slight snoring sound, and she had fallen asleep......
In her sleep, her brows furrowed tightly, but the corners of her mouth showed a slight smile, perhaps even in her dreams, her sorrow and joy were entangled.
