Chapter 118: Li Yuan Goes to Taiyuan
Chapter 118 Li Yuan went to Taiyuan
"Drive! Drive! ”
On the outskirts of Taiyuan City, a team of fifty or sixty people was rapidly advancing towards Taiyuan City, and the leader was Li Yuan, the Duke of Tang Guo, who was rushing to Taiyuan City with his own soldiers to perform his new duties.
Some time ago, when the imperial army went out to Goguryeo for the third time, Li Yuan was named the chief general of Huaiyuan Town, responsible for guarding the logistics grain and grass support base set up in Huaiyuan Town in order to go to Goguryeo.
During the imperial army's conquest of Goguryeo, Li Yuan led the left-behind army of the grain and grass base to annihilate and repel the enemy troops sent by Goguryeo to attack the grain and grass base many times, effectively ensuring the logistics and grain safety of the expeditionary army, and making great contributions to the defeat of Goguryeo by the imperial army.
After the triumph of the imperial army, Yang Guang rewarded the meritorious ministers, and Li Yuan was named the Taiyuan town guard because of his meritorious service in protecting the grain, and concurrently served as the Hedong comfort envoy and the Fenyang palace supervisor, responsible for commanding the Taiyuan City garrison, clearing out the rebels of the Hejin thieves, and supervising the construction of the Fenyang Palace in Taiyuan!
It was a happy thing to be promoted, but at this time, Li Yuan's face was gloomy, and he looked worried, looking at the city wall of Taiyuan City that was getting closer and closer, his mood became heavier and heavier, and he remembered what Yang Guang said when he rewarded him with an official position.
"Li Aiqing, your ability is outstanding, and your ability to govern the army is also good. I sent you to Taiyuan to defend this time, because the bandits in Hejin are too rampant, and a talented and capable general like you is needed to lead the army to clear up, this time Aiqing went to perform his duties in Taiyuan, I gave you two years to exterminate the bandit rebels in the Hejin area, I hope that after Aiqing arrives in Taiyuan, he will suppress the bandits with his heart and exterminate the bandit rebels in the Hejin area as soon as possible, and don't let me live up to my expectations for Aiqing! ”
"Li Aiqing, this time you went to Taiyuan to perform your duties in addition to the Taiyuan guard, I have one more thing to explain to you, the construction of the Fenyang Palace in Taiyuan is slow, and it can't be completed for a long time, and I am a little anxious. I am now crowning Aiqing as the supervisor of the Fenyang Palace, responsible for supervising the construction of the Fenyang Palace, and Aiqing must supervise the construction of the Fenyang Palace within half a year. ”
Soon, the fast-running team came to the outside of Taiyuan City, in front of the city gate, a group of Taiyuan City officials were waiting here, including Taiyuan Deputy Left-behind Wang Wei, Huyalang General Gao Junya, and other dozens of officials, they all came to welcome Tang Guogong Li Yuan to take office.
"Welcome to Taiyuan!"
"Congratulations to Li Yuanjun for being promoted to Taiyuan Town Guard!"
Li Yuan led a team of pro-soldiers and stopped not far from the officials, and all the officials stepped forward to bow their hands and greet each other, regardless of whether Li Yuan knew him or not, they were all smiling and enthusiastic.
"Today, Shude has the honor to perform his duties as the guard of Taiyuan, but he did not expect to alarm all the envoys! How can Shude be able to drive all the envoys to wait here, Shude is really ashamed! ”
Li Yuan also jumped off the horse, greeted the officials with a smile on his face, and thanked him with both hands and fists, "The envoys are so enthusiastic!" Shude: Thank you! ”
Li Yuan thanked the officials, but he kept an eye on the people led by the officials! This person is an eight-foot tall man, with long hands and thick arms, a tiger's back and a bear's waist, a brown complexion, and a beard, which looks very powerful and terrifying.
"What do you call the envoy?" Li Yuan asked with a smile at this person!
"Congratulations to Lord Guogong for taking up the post of Taiyuan town guard!" The strong man also smiled and hugged his fist to Li Yuan, and said with a smile: "The contemptible surname is Wang, called Wang Wei, and now he is Taiyuan Juncheng!"
"It turns out that the envoy is the deputy guard of Taiyuan, the famous Tiger Benlang General Wang Weiwang, I can see it today, Shude is very lucky!"
Wang Wei hugged his fist towards Li Yuan again, and said with a smile: "Lord Guogong is serious!" Lord Guogong, let me introduce you to all the envoys present! ”
"This is General Gao Jun Yagao, born in the Bohai Gao clan, General Huyalang, who also performs his duties to guard the camp in the city, he will be a subordinate of Lord Guogong, and is currently mainly responsible for the city guard of Taiyuan City!"
"This elegant envoy is surnamed Liu, his name is Wenjing, his name is Zhaoren, he is a martial artist of Jingzhao, Liu Envoyjun is very talented and has outstanding ability, and he is now Jinyang Ling of Taiyuan County!"
……
After Wang Wei introduced all the officials to Li Yuan one by one, the welcome ceremony at the gate of the city ended quickly, and Li Yuan, who was very worried, after thanking the officials present one by one, declined the banquet of the officials in the restaurant on the grounds that he was uncomfortable on a long-distance horseback ride, and took his own personal soldiers, as well as Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji, who had already arrived in Taiyuan City in advance, and went straight to the town guard camp in the city!
"Father, ever since you entered the city, the child has always looked preoccupied with you! Ask the father to tell the child if something bad has happened. ”
In the Taiyuan town guard camp, Li Yuan was looking at the town guard map in the main tent and looked down to think, at this time he returned to a worried look, completely lost the relaxed smile at the city gate, Li Jiancheng was very worried, and couldn't help asking!
"Alas!"
Li Yuan sighed, looked up at his two sons, and then at his best friend Pei Lian, and told a few people in detail about the situation on the day he was sealed, 1510!
"Shude, do you mean that the Holy Lord has not let down his guard against you and is still preparing to do something to you?"
Pei Lin deserves to be a top strategist, and he can see what Li Yuan is worried about at a glance!
"Yes. I can see it now, it is impossible for the Holy Lord to let go of our Li family in Longxi! He didn't do it at this time because he was afraid that I had made a contribution in the battle of Zhenggao, and if he did it to us at this time, it would have a great impact on the morale of the army. ”
"There is another reason, because of the death of Li Min and Li Hun before, everyone in the court is already in danger and has different thoughts, which has caused a lot of turmoil to the court, at this time he wants to stabilize the court first, so he did not immediately take action against our Longxi Li family, but on the grounds of my meritorious service, he pushed the boat and rewarded me, wanting to stabilize us temporarily and let us be unprepared!"
The faces of several people changed instantly, I have to say that Li Yuan's worries are very reasonable, the original proverb of "peach and plum, win the world" made Yang Guang hate all the people surnamed Li in the world, and he was eager to kill all the people surnamed Li in the world, coupled with a later dream of "flooding the old poplar tree", it made him even more angry, and he was restless day and night.
Li Min and Li Hun died because of this, and now among the people surnamed Li in the whole world, the strength of the Li family in Longxi is the most top-notch, and Yang Guang is the most relieved and restless, and he will never let go of the Li family in Longxi.
"Father is worried that the Holy One will do something to us soon?"
Li Jiancheng asked cautiously, although what Li Yuan said was very worrying and frightening, after all, several members of their family had also analyzed it and had already been mentally prepared, so after a moment of shock, he quickly calmed down again!
Is the overlord of the late Sui Dynasty good-looking?
