Chapter 602 Message

Ash Narong is really pregnant, and the treatment can't be compared with Li Bi at the beginning, most of the officials in this year are still cheeky, and they are extremely clear about the main and secondary, and those who have heard it find an opportunity to congratulate them verbally, if they haven't heard of it, even if they hear the rumors, they should not have heard of it.

If you rush to get stuck, you will not escape the suspicion of flattery, damage your reputation, and be extremely irresponsible for your eunuch career.

Therefore, Li Po's ears here are quite quiet, and he just instructed the people in the house to take care of the pregnant woman carefully, and he did not delay his trip.

As expected, Wen Yanbo came to the door, and the strength of his persuasion was much stronger than Chen Xiaoyi, as the secretary of the ministry, he was also the most daring person to speak under Li Po, and his style of acting has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

Li Po is mentally prepared, and he is very calm to deal with, unlike Chen Xiaoyi, who can provoke his anger.

It's just that the itinerary was finally changed, and he stayed in Jinyang for some more time, until mid-May, Wei Chigong sent a letter to Jinyang, the generalissimo of Eastern Shaanxi, and Li Shimin, the king of Qin, returned to Chang'an.

Accompanied by the deputy head of the march of Shaanxi East Road, Tang Jian, the internal historian.

In other words, the chief and deputy leaders of the Tang Army stationed on the edge of the Yellow River stepped down and returned to Chang'an.

Replacing Li Shimin as the secretary of the Shaanxi East Road Military Department and the head of the Shaanxi East Road march was Li Shenfu, the king of Xiangyi County, and Li Gang, the prince killer who had just recovered from a serious illness, was appointed as the deputy head of the Shaanxi East Road March, stationed in Yongfengcang.

The Tongguan army was divided one after another, and the Li Tang garrison stationed on the west bank of the Yellow River quickly increased to more than 100,000 troops, which made Wei Chigong, who was guarding Pusaka, feel the pressure slightly.

The news came quickly and quite thoroughly, not because Wei Chigong and others did a good job in intelligence work, but because there were deserters from the Tang sergeants.

There is nothing strange about it, most of these Tang Army deserters were Jin people who went south to Chang'an with Li Yuan's father and son, and there is a reason for fleeing east now.

Many of the Jin people in Guanxi were quite unsatisfactory, and they were strongly ostracized by the Guanxi people, and most of them successively fell under the more tolerant Qin kings.

Now that Li Shimin has returned to Beijing, the power of the crown prince Li Jiancheng has expanded violently in the east, and the future is bleak.

What surprised Li Po was not that Li Tang was a drastic personnel change, but that he heard that Li Shimin was sick, and it was said that he was still very sick.

This is a bit illusory for Li Po, he knows better than anyone who Li Shimin is, that is undoubtedly an emperor who grew up from the war and has brilliant achievements.

Generally speaking, such people are physically strong, energetic, and seriously ill? You're not kidding, are you?

The sudden good news made Li Po's heart throb, of course, as an excellent commander, the first thing he thought of was that there was fraud in this, did he want to learn a story from Bai Qi and lure him to lead his troops across the river?

But it's impossible to think about it, now that he is unprepared, with such news, will he lead his troops across the river? Definitely not, the lack of troops by the river is an obvious thing, and he Li Po is not Zhao Kuo on paper, with Li Erzhi's cunning, how could he turn a blind eye to this and come up with such a clumsy plan?

So, this made Li Po's excuse for traveling more sufficient, but the itinerary was also changed, and he had to go south to take a look.

In fact, the voice to dissuade him from traveling was not loud, except for Wen Yanbo and Chen Xiaoyi's words were a little intense, others did not say much about the lord's move to patrol the party, but only persuaded the lord to bring more people.

In mid-May, in the warm summer breeze, Li Po finally let go of a big mess here in Jinyang and embarked on a trip to the south to join the party.

At this time, the car of Li Shimin, the king of Qin, was slowly entering the gate of Chang'an, and there were many people who welcomed the return of the king of Qin to Beijing, in addition to Shi Du Ruhui, the head of the Qin Wangfu who was released from the prison of Dali Temple, and Fang Xuanling and other Cao subordinates of the Qin Wangfu, there were also the civil and military ministers headed by Dugu Xiude, the general of the pro-guard and Jiang Baoyi, the general of Zuo Wuwei.

All kinds of flags fluttered in the ranks, and with the sound of low horses' hooves, the group slowly entered the gate of Chang'an.

While driving, Li Shimin leaned weakly on the soft pillow, covered with a thick fur coat, with beads of sweat on his face, and his breathing was also rapid, and he occasionally coughed a few times.

He was not as sick as he looked, and according to the doctors' diagnosis, he was just suffering from a cold.

Of course, these good doctors who treated King Qin's condition, and even Li Shimin himself, understood that his condition had never improved, and there was a possibility that it would slowly turn into a chronic illness.

Everything is due to the fact that he led his troops to attack Longmen in the winter of last year, and the severe cold and wind and snow in Jindi caused great damage to his health, and he has not been able to recuperate at ease, so now, he has to return to Beijing to recuperate.

Listening to the sound of horses' hooves outside, as well as the whispered words of the attendants, the team has entered Chang'an City, Li Shimin couldn't help laughing at himself, when he led his troops into Shu, he broke Xiao Milling under the First World War, swept the Southern Barbarians, and led the troops to defeat Xue Rengao in a few days, and his military exploits were unmatched in the court.

At that time, he thought about it again and again, and only brought hundreds of relatives back to Beijing, who greeted him back, only a fool like Jiang Baoyi.

Now he has not been able to break Li Ding'an, and he has suffered heavy losses in the battle of Pusaka, not only Dugu Yanyun, Wang Xingben, Lu Chongmao, etc. were all killed, but Xue's uncles and nephews were also left in Pusaka City, and those two were both members of his Chinese team in the Qin Palace.

When crossing the river, his guard commander Zhai Changsun led his troops to attack the beachhead, wearing six wounds, and when he retreated, he was hit by two arrows on the pontoon bridge, and was seriously injured, and now he is still lying in Feng Yicheng and cannot move.

The tactical defeat is just that, and the strategic defeat is almost complete, losing Kasaka, and the Tang army wants to recover the Jindi, and the chances have become extremely slim.

Once all the Jin land is lost, it cannot threaten Wang Shichong of Henan from the side, and it is inevitable that the Tongguan line will undergo the baptism of war in the near future.

In Li Shimin's view, the danger of the war situation in the east is better than when Xue Ju came to attack.

Some time ago, he heard that Li Ding'an had finally become king, Xiao Miao, Wang Shichong, and Dou Jiande had all sent envoys to congratulate him, which made Li Shimin shudder.

Li Shimin profoundly understands that the strategic defeat is more terrible than the tactical defeat, the defeat of this battle is almost not a crime of war, Li Yuanji, Li Shentong, Pei Lin and others are all guilty and deserve death, if there is no them, how can there be today's crisis?

What made Li Shimin's heart beat even more was that the continuous war had gradually exhausted Kansai, and the signs of civil unrest had once again appeared.

What is uncomfortable is that he can see it clearly, but if you want to ask him what to do now, his answer may be the same as others, only to defeat Xiao Mo and Li Ding'an as soon as possible, and use the victory in the war to inspire people.

But Xiao Mo and Li Ding'an, one south and one north, like two solid pincers, clamped down on Kansai, where is it so easy to beat?

And the intricate political disputes in Chang'an City also made him deeply involved and unable to extricate himself......

At such a time, when he returned to Chang'an, the people who greeted him put on a solemn posture, as if welcoming a prince who had truly won and returned to the dynasty, which really made him cry and laugh.

Father, is it really good that you are swaying between your eldest brother and me like this? Li Shimin looked at the shaking roof of the car and couldn't help but have the desire to vomit.

But he still had to calm down and think about the situation he should face after returning to Beijing.

The crown prince is powerful, and his Austrian aid in the court is becoming more and more scarce, and when he leads the troops against the enemy outside, and when the troops are lost, the prince's family has quietly occupied the absolute upper hand.

He felt that it was not the right time to be sick before, but at this time, it seemed that he was getting the right opportunity, because whether it was Du Ruhui or Yu Wenshi and others, they all thought that it would only backfire if they fought with the prince at this time.

The voice of the court's praise for the prince is getting louder and louder, and outside, Qu Tutong is sitting in the northwest, Li Xiaogong is in Shu, and Li Zhiyun's uncle and nephew are leading the troops, once he leaves the bank of the Yellow River, it must be the prince's world.

The internal and external situation has reached such a point, in addition to his military exploits, what else can he rely on to compete with the prince?

Killing Dugu Huaien is undoubtedly a failure, his old subordinates don't have any brains, and they add a lot of blockages to him, and Li Yuanji, the king of Qi, and Pei Lian, the prince of Wei, who jumped up and down, became two knives in the hands of the prince that were difficult to parry.

Thinking of this, Li Shimin was indignant, and his eyes gradually became dark and abnormal, what can these people do?

Hmph, let's settle down and take a look, can they make the people of Kansai full of food and clothing, or can they lead the army to make meritorious deeds?

So, he was sick at the right time, which is the same as fighting, since you can't touch it hard, then shrink one place and wait for the opportunity.

What makes Li Shimin feel at ease is that he is used to seeing his father's methods, and he can be regarded as understanding that the more miserable he is here, the more likely his father is to lend a hand, because the prince is big, and the last person he wants to see this situation may be his father.

Otherwise, it would not have been so easy for him to get out of the Manchu attack some time ago, and now these people outside his city are even more evident.

Thinking of this, Li Shimin's eyes gradually became indifferent, after thinking about it, he stretched out his hand to open the curtain of the car and ordered: "Go, go directly to the palace to see the driver......"

At the same time, Li Yuanji, the king of Qi who was remembered by Li Shimin, was not idle, he was walking in circles outside the gate of Princess Pingyang's mansion.

If Li Shimin saw Li Yuanji, who was a little worse than him, he would definitely laugh a few times and say that retribution would be unhappy.

Yes, the fourth prince finally had a bit of a desperate meaning, and he actually found the door of Li Xiuning, the princess of Pingyang, who had been cut off from him for a long time, which shows that the situation is terrible.
