Chapter 69: Blood
Qi Wangfu.
Hamid said: "Yesterday one of my servants came back from the city of Fuqi and said that there was a war going on there. After the old khan Murong Fuyun was killed by General Xue Wanjun, his eldest son Murong Shun followed you to Chang'an, and his second son Murong Zun wanted to avenge the old khan and secretly defected to Tibet.
You Tang Dynasty people are gone, but it will be dangerous. ”
Li Daozong and Hou Junji were both surprised, and Hou Junji asked, "Is the news reliable?" ”
Hamid said: "Reliable, I have a shop in Fuqi City for many years, and the shopkeeper there is my distant uncle, who has dealings with many nobles in the Tuyuhun court. ”
Li Daozong said: "The matter is urgent, I have to report to Your Majesty quickly." ”
Hou Junji nodded and said, "Yes, you and I will enter the palace immediately to ask to see Your Majesty." So saying, he stood up.
Li You said: "Don't panic, what's the hurry, come, eat a piece of candy, and sit down for a while." ”
After Hou Junji sat down, he asked, "What is Your Highness's opinion?" ”
Li You smiled: "Why are you two here today?" ”
Li Daozong said: "We are here to find His Highness to make a fortune, but the military situation is like fire, and this person's affairs have to be put aside first." At this time, most people in the Tang Dynasty are still loyal and patriotic.
Li You said: "No. This is a chance to make a fortune. ”
Hou Junji said solemnly: "Your Highness, although the minister is poor and greedy for money, compared with the Jiangshan Sheji of the Tang Dynasty, money is nothing. Farewell. As he spoke, he stood up again.
Li You laughed and said no more.
After Hou Junji and Li Daozong left, Hamid said: "Lao Li, you taught me to make up such a story, the movement is too big, right?" ”
Li You smiled: "Lao Ha, why do you think I'm unreliable like them?" ”
Hamid thinks about what happened after he met Li You, and there is really nothing unreliable. He said, "Lao Li, I believe in you. ”
Li You said: "Lao Ha, I am going to Fu Qi City, you write me a letter and send a guide who is familiar with the situation to meet your cousin." ”
Hamid was surprised and said, "You're going to Fuqi City?" Why do you take risks when you know the danger? ”
Li You said: "My third brother is there, I can't watch him die, right?" ”
Hamid stopped asking, asked Magpie to bring pen and paper, wrote a letter to his cousin, and handed it to Li You. Asked: "When will you leave, I will ask the guide to wait for you outside the Hong Lim Gate." ”
Li You said: "Soon, half an hour before the curfew, you just let him arrive." ”
Hamid got up and took his leave.
Hamid walked through the garden and met Hou Junji and Li Daozong, who returned. They and Hamid nodded and walked briskly to the room they had just come out of.
It turned out that not long after Hou Junji and Li Daozong left, Li Daozong felt that something was wrong, and he said: "Old Hou, His Highness seems to have something to say, we should listen to it." ”
After this period of time, especially after the competition between Li You and Quan Wanji, Li You became a household name in Chang'an City, and his credibility rose sharply, and Hou Junji also felt that he should listen to his opinion. So, the two returned.
In the guest room, Hou Junji saw Li You, saluted and said, "Your Highness, the minister was a little impatient just now, I'm sorry." Your Highness has any thoughts, please advise. ”
Li You invited the two generals to sit down and asked, "What do you think?" ”
Hou Junji said: "Mobilize a large army to quell the rebellion and rescue His Royal Highness the King of Shu." ”
Li You asked: "The army has just been disbanded, and the soldiers are on their way home, how can they mobilize the army in a hurry?" The war has just ended, the summer grain has not yet been harvested, and the drought has caught up, and the household is so poor that it is about to sell pants, what to use to fight? ”
Hou Junji and Li Daozong are both fierce generals, and they know about the war, but they think less about other things. When the two of them heard Li You say this, they were a little dumbfounded.
Li Daozong asked, "Your Highness, what do you think?" ”
Li You said his considered opinion.
Hou Junji and Li Daozong nodded frequently, but finally stood up at the same time and said, "No, how can Your Highness take the risk yourself, don't ...... it"
Li You talked to them for a while, and Li Daozong said, "Okay, thank you, Your Highness." The minister will go to Xianyang to buy land, and the old marquis, you should go and ask to see Your Majesty. ”
With that, they split up.
Soon, Tian Min, Yin Hongzhi, Zhang Guigui and Yin Guanghao were called.
Li You briefly said what happened, and explained that Yin Hongzhi paid attention to the affairs in the court, Tian Min took care of the palace, and Zhang Guigui and Yin Guanghao took care of their business. Zhang Guigui and Yin Guanghao wanted to go, and finally decided that Zhang Guigui would follow, and Yin Guanghao would stay to take care of the business.
After everything was arranged, Li You took Zhang Guigui, Baihu and a few cronies and guards, and rode straight to Fanglin Gate.
When I got out of Hong Lim Gate, I saw a lot of people standing on the side of the road, all of them strong and mighty. There are Hou Junji's righteous son Hou Chen, Li Daozong's nephew Li Duan and the generals they bring, all of whom are veterans of battle.
The others were the Persians sent by Hamid.
Everyone gathered together and ran towards Longyou Road.
Soon, everyone came to the edge of the Wei River, and saw a group of people standing on the head of the bridge from a distance, all dressed as Hu people. The one in the middle is none other than Hamid.
Li You's heart was hot, and his eyes were a little moist. He jumped off his horse, hugged Hamid, and the group mounted and ran northwest.
As night fell, the gate of Hong Lim Gate was about to close, and at that moment, two young officers with several soldiers came to the gate quickly, and shouted to the guards who were pushing the gate, "Wait a minute. ”
The team guarding the door was greeting: "It's Cheng Gongzi and Wei Chi Gongzi, it's so late, and you still have to go out of the city?" ”
"Urgent business." Cheng Zhiliang, the second son of Cheng Yanjin, said.
"Open the gate and let Cheng Gongzi and them out of the city." The team shouted.
The gate was pushed open with a "squeak", and Cheng Chuliang and Yu Chi Gong's second son, Yu Chi Baoqi and others, passed through quickly and left without dust.
Concubine Yang's Yicui Palace.
Concubine Yang accompanied Li Shimin to finish dinner, made tea for him personally, and chatted with him.
Concubine Yang said: "Your Majesty, it is the first time for Ke'er to go to such a far place, I heard that there are poor mountains and bad waters, and the people are fierce, will Ke'er be in danger?" ”
Li Shimin leaned on the recliner, his body shook gently, and he said: "No, my army has just conquered Tuyuhun, and the army is mighty, and no one dares to touch the tiger's whiskers in the imperial court."
Besides, Murong Shun has been canonized as the king of Xiping County, and he has also sworn allegiance to the Tang Dynasty, and there will be no repetition. Ke'er just went to announce the decree and came back soon. You can rest assured. ”
Concubine Yang said: "Your Majesty, the day before yesterday, the concubine went to see Concubine Yin's sister, she said that she was very envious of the concubine's father, and His Majesty buried the concubine's father with the courtesy of the emperor, and the concubine was very grateful. She said that now that Li You is out of breath, she also hopes that Her Majesty can give her father a grand burial. ”
In 631, Li Shimin was buried in Leitang by Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty.
Li Shimin said very unhappily: "These two things are different, don't mention them again in the future." "Concubine Yin's father and the Li family are mortal enemies, and Concubine Yin is a wise woman who never mentions this matter.
Because of the matter between Quan Wanji and Cui Bingshi, Concubine Yang was very dissatisfied with Li You, and deliberately brought up this matter in the name of Concubine Yin to take revenge on Li You.
Sure enough, this incident caused Li Shimin's dissatisfaction with Concubine Yin.
At this time, Wang De said outside: "Your Majesty, Hou Junji asks to see you, there is an urgent military situation. ”
