Li Longji raised his eyes and glared at Chen Xuanli, his expression was very displeased, as the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, he had the supreme right, and the psychological advantages formed by his more than 30 years of imperial career made it more and more difficult for him to listen to his advice.

Wei Zheng once said, 'The husband is worried, and he will be wholeheartedly treated, and if he has the will, he will indulge in pride.' When the Tang Long coup d'état was launched, Corporal Li Longji Lixian tried his best to make friends with Chen Xuanli and other generals of the Ten Thousand Cavalry Army, and after ascending the throne, he was also able to humbly accept the advice of Yao Chong and Song Jing, thus pushing the Tang Empire to prosperity.

But with the gradual strengthening of the Tang Empire, Li Longji began to be complacent, gradually lost his enterprising fighting spirit, and it was no longer difficult to listen to the advice of the courtiers, in addition, he was also old, and his physical strength and energy were not as good as before, at this time, what he needed most was like Li Linfu, a very obedient and capable courtier, only Li Linfu could accurately understand his meaning, and immediately do things according to his will, which can greatly reduce his energy and let him have more time to rest.

Chen Xuanli's loyal words made Li Longji very unhappy, and he did not protect the Eastern Queen, so that the Eastern Queen was almost assassinated by the Tibetan assassins, which was Chen Xuanli's dereliction of duty, a derelict courtier, who did not honestly wait to be trained, but still disobeyed the emperor's will, how could Li Longji not be angry.

"The Turkic affairs can be slowed down first, Tubo is so presumptuous, it must be severely punished, otherwise, where is the power of the Tang Dynasty, and where is my face." Li Longji opened his mouth to reprimand and stared at Chen Xuanli: "Chen Xuanli, do you know what the consequences will be if the Eastern Queen dies at the hands of the Tibetan assassins?" ”

Chen Xuanli was shocked and grabbed the ground with his head: "This matter is all a dereliction of duty on the part of the minister, please punish Your Majesty." ”

Li Longji sighed: "Since the Queen of the East is safe and sound, I will not punish you, but this kind of thing must not happen again." ”

At this time, Chen Xuanli had already pleaded guilty, and the Queen of the East was also safe and sound, which was a false alarm, as a loyal minister for more than 30 years, Li Longji generally would not deal with him easily, and it was necessary to beat him from time to time.

"Your Majesty, rest assured, the minister has selected hundreds of soldiers of the Dragon Martial Army to closely protect the Queen of the East day and night, and will never let the Tibetan assassins take advantage of it again."

"Okay, the captured Tibetan assassin must be interrogated well, and if there is nothing else, retreat!"

Li Longji waved his hand and asked Chen Xuanli to step back.

Chen Xuanli bowed, slowly took a few steps back, and turned to leave the Zichen Palace.

Li Longji's anger gradually dissipated, and he held both sides of the dragon couch with both hands, ready to stand up, but Gao Lishi on the side hurriedly stretched out his hand to support him.

In fact, Li Longji is not old enough to need support to get up from the dragon couch, and Gao Lishi does this to represent a kind of respect, is to show his loyalty to the emperor.

"General, how old is Zhao Yufu now?"

Li Longji paced a few steps in the Zichen Hall and asked.

"Everyone, it's seventeen."

Li Longji smiled and put his right hand on his waist: "I remember that she was only so tall when she came to the capital last time, and she became the king in a blink of an eye, and time flies so fast!" ”

"What everyone said is that the old slave also remembers that at that time, she still asked everyone for candy to eat?"

Colliers chimed in.

"Haha!" Li Longji's mood was much better, and he said softly: "She has to shoulder the burden of governing the country at a young age, and the pressure must be very great, but she is also a childlike child, and when she arrives in the capital, she doesn't stay in the post house well, and she actually went to Fanchuan to hunt, and fortunately met my Tang Yishi, otherwise it would be bad, by the way, why is this young man named Li An so familiar?" ”

After speaking, Li Longji frowned.

Gao Lishi raised his eyebrows, there was a slight excitement in his eyes, and said respectfully: "Everyone, this Li Shaolang is Li An who broke the army in Ulzhou.

When Li Longji heard this, he suddenly realized: "There is such a thing, I am really old, and I have forgotten it in just a few days, and the general still has a good memory." ”

Gao Lishi didn't dare to be above the emperor, and said busily, "Everyone works for state affairs all day long, it is inevitable that they don't remember this little thing, and the old slave has been nagged by the little girl from time to time these days, so he deliberately wrote down the name Li An." ”

"Oh, why is that?"

Li Longji's eyes were full of suspicion, how could Gao Lishi's adopted daughter mention Ang Lee from time to time?

Gao Lishi naturally did not dare to hide Li Longji, and told Li Longji about his wife and adopted daughter encountering bandits halfway and being successfully rescued by Li An, and praised Li An as a heroic boy who was a pillar of the Tang Empire.

After listening to Gao Lishi's story, Li Longji was full of joy: "General, you owe me a favor!" Ha ha! ”

"The old slave owes everyone a favor, and he can't pay it back in a few lifetimes, only this life serves everyone wholeheartedly."

Colliers grinned, although the smile was not good-looking, but it was also very sincere, his loyalty to Li Longji was not adulterated, and Li Longji also knew this.

Recalling the content of the Ulzhou battle report, Li Longji's face was full of excitement, that border battle that happened not long ago, the Tang army won a complete victory, and the main force of the Xi Nu army was severely damaged, and it could not recover for at least 20 years, and in this border battle, Li An's performance was undoubtedly the most eye-catching.

He first scared off more than 10,000 elite cavalry of the Tibetan army with a suspicious strategy, rescued Zhang Qiqiu, the envoy of the Hengye army, and then used the strategy of leading the snake out of the hole twice, completely annihilated the Tibetan army spies mixed into Anbian City, and resolved the crisis in the city, and then, in the case of an absolute disadvantage in the army, raided the camp of the Tibetan army with 300 soldiers, defeated the 5,000 elite of the Tibetan army, and personally killed the general Li Tianlong of the Tibetan army, and finally, with a hundred elite warriors, rushed back and forth within a radius of 100 miles, and annihilated nearly 1,000 Tibetan troops at the cost of their own losses, which frightened the Tibetan army. Children dare not cry at night.

This outstanding record, even if Sun Wu and Wu Qi are alive, is nothing more than that, Li Longji is naturally very satisfied with this, which is also the main reason why he wants to summon Li An.

"This Ang Lee, what good luck! First of all, I made great contributions to my Tang Dynasty, and on the way to Beijing, I saved the general's family, and when I entered the capital, I saved the life of the Queen of the East, and the future is limitless! ”

Li Longji grinned lightly and praised Li An, he knew that Li An's rescue of Yue'er's mother and daughter would inevitably make Gao Lishi very grateful, and saving Zhao Yufu and resolving a diplomatic turmoil not only won the favor of Zhao Yufu and the soldiers of Dongnu Kingdom, but also made him very satisfied.

Gao Lishi understood what Li Longji meant, and nodded in agreement.

"Spread my will, canonize Li An as the captain of Xuanjie, and reward 100 horses of silk and 50 pieces of gold."

Li Longji gave a decree to reward Li An.

Captain Xuanjie is a military officer, who is on the eighth rank and has no specific job, and belongs to an honorary position, but the Tang Dynasty's Yulu is issued according to the grade of the loose official, and the grade of the loose official represents the level of the Yulu, so when Li An gets the Xuanjie Captain, he gets a copy of the Tang Dynasty's Zhengbagrade official.

After giving the holy decree, Li Longji looked at Gao Lishi beside him: "King Ning has been here for a few days, and I don't want to summon anyone for the time being, but the general can meet Li An first and tell this kid that I value him very much." ”

Gao Lishi hurriedly said: "Yes, everyone, the old slave will go today." ”

Li Longji nodded and continued to look through the twists and turns on the case.

In the province of Zhongshu in Daming Palace, Li Linfu ordered Li Linfu to complete the handling of government affairs with high efficiency, and left Zhongshu Province and walked towards Yuehua Gate.

In the past few days, he has been thinking about how to use Li An's stealing of the divine bird to frame Wang Zhongsi and the crown prince, although there is a lack of sufficient evidence to associate Li An's personal behavior with Wang Zhongsi and the prince, but he believes that as long as Li Longji is suspicious of the prince, it will be enough.

After entering the Yuehua Gate, Li Linfu first walked north, bypassed the West Pavilion and then walked east, and stopped at the Chongming Gate in the south of the Zichen Palace.

"Lee Sang-kook."

The little eunuch who had just walked out of the Zichen Hall and was about to go to the Lingzhou Academy to announce the decree greeted him warmly.

Li Linfu saw that this person was Yu Chaoen, the little eunuch beside Li Longji, smiled extremely sweetly, stepped forward, took out a jade wrench from his sleeve, and stuffed it into Yu Chaoen's hand: "Yu to envoy, how is Your Majesty doing today?" Feeling good? ”

Yu Chaoen did not refuse, accepted Li Linfu's kindness, and said respectfully: "Li Xiangguo, everyone's body has been tough?" The mood is also very good. ”

Li Linfu smiled even sweeter when he heard this, but what he wanted to know was not this, he needed to know what Li Longji was doing recently and what he was doing?

"What has Your Majesty been busy with lately?"

Yu Chaoen accepted Li Linfu's gift, naturally to satisfy Li Linfu's curiosity, he lay in Li Linfu's ear, and told Li Linfu everything the emperor thought and did in a day.

"Yu to the envoy, you mean that the emperor is asking you to go and canonize Li An as the captain of Xuanjie?"

The smile on Li Linfu's face disappeared suddenly, but after only a moment's pause, he once again showed his signature sweet smile.

Yu Chaoen can serve by Li Longji's side, and his mind is naturally not weak, he can see at a glance that Li Linfu is dissatisfied with Li An's canonization, but he will never say it to his face if he is shrewd.

"Li Xiangguo, the little slave still has to go to pass the decree, we can't delay any longer, everyone is in the Zichen Palace, Xiangguo, please."

Yu Chaoen was about to say goodbye, and stretched out his hand to the Zichen Hall behind him.

Li Linfu smiled sweetly: "The fish will go slowly." ”

Yu Chaoen arched his hand, took a few little eunuchs, and left from the Guangshun Gate in front of the right side of the Zichen Palace.

Li Linfu watched Yu Chaoen leave slowly, his mood was very heavy, and he thought hard about the big plan, I am afraid that it will be difficult to work.
