People's moral character and self-cultivation grow with age, and the relationship between the two should be proportional.

But the two old people in the front hall of Chengfu have inversely compared their morality with the years, not only the more they live their morality, but even the fighting moves are becoming more and more degraded.

Li Ji and Niu Jinda, who were watching the excitement on the side, watched the excitement with disdain and interest, and had no intention of persuading at all.

The battle was stalemate, until Cheng Yanjin and Wei Chigong began to spit on each other, Li Su finally couldn't stand it anymore, just pulling his beard and pulling his hair, and spitting at each other taught him how to endure this person with a habit of cleanliness?

I feel like watching the game from the side will be unbearable......

Turning his head to look at Li Ji, Li Su smiled bitterly and said, "Uncle, you ...... Just don't care? They're also the generals of the country, it's really ugly......"

Li Ji squinted his eyes with his green beard, and said calmly: "It's okay, let them be embarrassed, there are many generals in the country, and it is not a bad thing to die one or two shameless generals." ”

Li Su: "............"

This is typical of watching the excitement without thinking much of a deal......

Turning his head to look at Niu Jinda again, Niu Jinda laughed: "What Mao Gong said is very true, this kind of shameless old goods, it is really the blessing of the dynasty to die a few more, and the prosperity under the rule of my emperor is just around the corner, which is really gratifying......"

After saying that, Niu Jinda also bowed his hand in the direction of Taiji Palace with a festive face, obviously what he said "gratifying and congratulating" was indeed heartfelt, and there was no trace of adulteration.

Li Su blinked, and by this time, he finally felt a hint of something wrong.

The four veterans who are here today...... It all seems to smell of gunpowder?

Could it be that someone made a lot of money when the four of them gambled?

Li Ji and Niu Jinda's words were neither yin nor yang, Cheng Yanjin and Wei Chigong heard it, the two glanced at each other, and instantly reached a consensus through eye contact: We must not let these two old horsemen get their wish, we must continue to live shamelessly.

So the two let go at the same time with a very tacit understanding, and the brawl ended.

"If you don't talk about people, how can the old man fall for you," Cheng Yanjin straightened up the clothes that were torn apart during the fight just now, and glared at Wei Chigong fiercely by the way, and then laughed: "If you don't tell you, you are a villain, and the old man will not entertain you, come here, send off guests!" ”

Li Su was dumbfounded, this old rascal...... So upright.

Li Ji laughed twice, pointed at Cheng Biting Jin and scolded with a smile: "There is no courtesy at all, the more you live, the more you live, the more useless you are, okay, the old man is gone......"

Pointing at Li Su, Li Ji said: "Zizheng, go with the old man, your aunt was still talking about you yesterday, the serious self-parents don't pay respects, but mix with these indiscreet people, believe it or not, the old man asked your father to whip you?" ”

Li Suzheng wanted to escape from this Longtan tiger's den, so he nodded busily. Who knew that Cheng Biting Jin suddenly sneered and said: "Old man Li, you can leave, Zizheng's baby was invited by the old man, and he left it for the old man." ”

Li Ji said with a smile: "The old man has finally confessed, are you afraid that the old man will take away the son and ruin your calculations?" ”

Li Su was confused, listening to the meaning of this, the chickens and dogs in Chengfu today and the smell of gunpowder between the four veterans ...... Seems to have something to do with yourself?

Li Su had to speak: "Well, the four of them are all Zizheng's elders, but they have a fate, Zizheng will never shirk, I don't know why the four of them are ...... today."

Cheng Yanjin snorted, glanced at the three of them, and said: "The old man has always been upright, and he has nothing to say to people, Zizheng, I heard that Your Majesty set up a portrait of the heroes of Lingyan Pavilion in the palace, which you played?" ”

"Yes." Li Su's eyelids jumped.

Cheng Yanjin swept towards Li Ji like a threat, and then said: "Very good, you have done another good deed, and you have also given us a good name for these old things who have made great contributions to Your Majesty back then, thank you for everything, the old man has thanked you once on behalf of those living and dead robes, and I won't thank you now......

Li Su said in a panic: "Uncle Cheng's words are serious, the kid can't afford your thanks." ”

"The old man said that you can afford it, you can naturally afford it, the ancestral tomb of the Li family is so feng shui, there is such a handsome and heroic character like you......" Cheng Yanjin sighed with emotion, perhaps thinking of the six uncompetitive goods he gave birth to, he couldn't help but become more and more depressed, and after reflecting on the feng shui of the ancestral tomb of the old Cheng family for a while, he said: "Zizheng, the old man heard that His Majesty summoned you to the palace a few days ago to play the right role, and asked you to recommend a suitable candidate for the portrait of a meritorious hero?" ”

Li Su's forehead was oozing with sweat slightly, until this moment, he probably understood the purpose of Cheng Yanjin calling him here today.

It's hard to answer, but Li Su, as a junior, must continue to say this, so Li Su had to smile bitterly: "Your Majesty just mentioned it casually at that time, you are all founding veterans who have fought for the country for decades, how can the kid He De dare to recommend you on your behalf?" Uncle Cheng was too worried. ”

Cheng Yanjin said with a smile: "The old man never thinks too much, and the old man knows that the phrase 'you have no jokes' is that His Majesty said that he wants you to recommend candidates, and it is definitely impossible to ......say it casually."

Li Su sighed with a sad face, and arched his hand: "Uncle Cheng and the elders have brilliant achievements and countless victories, and you will definitely be able to paint portraits of heroes." ”

Cheng Yanjin snorted and said: "Let's talk some nonsense, the old man has been saddled for His Majesty for so many years, and the portrait of the hero is a sure thing, but there should also be a ranking on the portrait of this hero, who is the real famous general of the country and the country, who is the honest man who only knows how to pick up the cheap miscellaneous pieces of the old man behind his back, and the ranking of the portrait will eventually be known." ”

After speaking, Cheng Yanjin glanced at Li Ji with bad intentions, and his eyes were very vicious.

"Poof—"

Li Jiniu, Dawei and Chi Gong sprayed at the same time.

"How innocent is an honest man in the world, he was so insulted by this old horseman...... Li Ji shook his head and sighed.

Li Su's expression became more and more bitter, he finally understood the reason why Cheng Yanjin wanted to see him today, Longtan Tiger's Den was not in vain, Li Su felt that he could encounter bad luck every time he went to the Mansion.

"Uh, Uncle Cheng, although the portrait of a hero is admonished by a kid, how is it ranked...... The kid really can't speak, His Majesty is arbitrary, how dare the kid say more? Li Su said with difficulty.

Cheng Yanjin snorted and said, "The little baby is getting older, and her temperament has become cringe, don't you still know your weight in Your Majesty's heart?" Now you are treated by Your Majesty as a countryman, even if what you say is outrageous, Your Majesty will think about it solemnly and carefully, the portrait of the hero is proposed by you, you make up a reason, and it is easy to arrange a good ranking for the old man. ”

Li Su said cautiously: "I don't know how many places Uncle Cheng wants to rank?" ”

Cheng Yanjin glanced at everyone, showed a proud look, and said with a straight chest: "The first iron must be the eldest grandson Lao'er, this old man is self-aware, so he won't compete with him, so the old man was wronged and ranked second, this ranking must also be expected......"

Before they finished speaking, Li Jiwei and Chi Gong suddenly exploded, and said angrily in unison: "The old man is shameless!" ”

Cheng bit Jinhuan's eyes widened, and he shouted: "If you are not convinced, you will come over and fight with the old man for three hundred rounds!" ”

Wei Chigong had the most short temper, and when he screamed, he said angrily: "Hit it!" The old man has killed countless enemies in his life, and it is very important to kill one more shameless old man. ”

Caught off guard, the two fought again.

Li Su looked at the flying sand and rocks in the front hall in horror, and was at a loss for a while.

Niu Jinda next to him patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Zizheng, don't be afraid, the two old horsemen have never dealt with each other, and they will fight when they meet and find a reason to fight, we have all been accustomed to it over the years." ”

Li Su wiped the sweat from his forehead and said with a dry smile: "The uncles are too unrestrained, the kid can't keep up with the rhythm of the elders, it's really ashamed......"

Niu Jinda sneered: "It's them who should be ashamed, why are you ashamed?" ”

Li Su blinked, lowered his voice and said, "How many of you came to Cheng's house today, do you also have the same meaning as Uncle Cheng?" If Uncle Niu wants to compete for a place, the kid will enter the palace in a few days......"

Before he finished speaking, Niu Jinda shook his head and said categorically: "The old man is not interested in the portrait of the hero, besides, there were many heroes from the dragon who followed His Majesty to fight back then, and the old man may not be ranked yet, and today the old man is just pulled by Mao Gong to see the excitement." ”

Li Su suddenly stood in awe: "Uncle Niu is high-spirited and bright, and has the style of a Confucian general and a gentleman, and the younger generations admire him." ”

Niu Jinda laughed and said: "Your kid's mouth is getting more and more slippery, and the old man can't praise you as a junior?" These two old guys are fighting endlessly, it's not appropriate to stay here for a long time, let's go if it's okay, what Cheng Lao Pifu said just now, you should fart, how can such a big thing be embarrassing for a junior, a handful of old people are still not sensible, go, don't stay in a place with a miasma. ”

Li Su couldn't ask for it, and agreed without hesitation when he heard the words.

In the hall, Cheng Yanjin and Yu Chigong fought so much that they forgot themselves in the dark, and Li Suniu Jinda and Li Ji didn't say hello, and left Cheng Mansion with a swagger.

…………

Out of Cheng's house, not far away is Li Ji's mansion, all of whom are founding heroes, and the place where they live is not far away.

Li Su and the three of them walked for a while and then entered Li Ji's house, Li Su first visited his aunt and other elders according to the number of courtesies, and then entered the front hall, and the three of them sat as guests.

Li Ji stroked his green beard and said: "Zizheng, your Uncle Niu is not an outsider, the old man said openly, the portrait of the hero has made a lot of noise in Chang'an City, especially the generals in the army who have the merit of the dragon, and they are even more blushing at the portrait of the hero. ”

Niu Jinda nodded in agreement on the side.

Looking at the caring eyes of the two, Li Su was moved in his heart, Li Ji is his own uncle, Niu Jinda is his own crown conferrer, and the two of them are sincere in their care for themselves, not a little false.

"Yes, my nephew should remember my uncle's teachings."

Li Ji looked at him and said with a smile: "Your future is limitless, your future achievements may be higher than that of the old man, our Li family is about to prosper the family for generations, the more this is the case, the more you must be cautious in your words and deeds, not easily involved in danger, seek a safe place in everything, and would rather regress and compromise than venture into ......"

Li Su smiled, a little strange in his heart, I am afraid that Li Ji's words are not just referring to the portrait of the hero.

Niu Jinda on the side quickly exchanged glances with Li Ji, and then said: "The case of the assassination of Feng Du, the former supervisor of Yushi Fengdu, has caused a storm in the city, because of the dispute involving the prince, we and other military veterans have not said a word, after all, we hold military power, and we have some prestige in the army, if we rush to meddle, it will be a taboo for the emperor, but we have seen this case from beginning to end, this case involves the king of Jin and the king of Wei, I am afraid that you will not be able to get rid of Zizheng, right?" ”

Li Su was shocked, he did this very secretly, except for a very few people around him, no one else could know, I really don't know how Niu Jinda and Li Ji knew.

Seeing Li Su's hesitant expression, Li Ji smiled and said: "Lao Niu and I are both your closest people, there are only three of us in the hall today, why don't you dare to admit it?" ”

Li Su gritted his teeth and simply said happily: "Yes, I did it." …… I don't know how the two elders knew? ”

Niu Jinda sighed: "We don't know anything, but we just noticed that you have a close relationship with the King of Jin, the King of Jin is young, he has no foundation in the court, the King of Wei is powerful, the middle of the court is like a cloud, and even the eldest grandson Wuji is biased towards the King of Wei, the King of Jin is in a murder case, but he won the King of Wei inexplicably, and even the Shandong Shi clan came out to vouch for the King of Jin, if there is no master behind the King of Jin to guide the layout, how can he get out of this case?" What's more, after this case, King Wei was punished by His Majesty to think about it behind closed doors, but the status of King Jin soared to the sky, and he was favored by His Majesty, the two sons won the heir, and the King of Jin won a complete victory. ”

Li Ji's eyes showed a complicated color, as if he was relieved and blamed, and after a long time, he sighed leisurely: "It's really a good hand!" The old man does not know the process, but just looking at the results has been admired, the King of Wei coerced the power of the eldest grandson Wuji and half of the ministers in the court, and almost put the King of Jin to death, so that the disadvantages can also be perfectly turned, and the defeat is turned into victory, which is really exciting, and it is even more rare that you have benevolence in your heart, knowing that you can invite us to move these veterans in the army, and you can get twice the result with half the effort, but for the safety of our old guys, Leng is not mentioning a word in front of us, hiding us to death, this mind, this responsibility, this calculation, The old man asked himself if he couldn't do it at your age. ”

Li Su said ashamedly: "The kid acted impulsively Meng Lang, which made the two elders worried, and they were both the fault of the younger generations. ”

Li Ji waved his hand and said: "We won't ask about the process, there must be thrills and dangers, besides, we hold the military power, the less we know about the affairs of the palace, the better, the old man only asks you a ......"

"Uncle, please speak."

Li Ji and Niu Jinda glanced at each other, Li Ji's expression suddenly became serious and solemn, and he lowered his voice and said slowly: "You...... Do you really want to assist the King of Jin to compete for the position of the East Palace? ”

Li Su was silent for a moment and said, "Yes, the kid does have this intention, and this intention has been decided." In fact, the case of Feng Du's assassination was concocted by the kid from beginning to end, in order to achieve the current status quo, the king of Wei fell out of favor, the king of Jin reused, and then pulled the Shandong scholars to the chariot of the king of Jin, and now the king of Jin has a great chance of winning. ”

Li Ji sighed and said, "You have indeed done a good job in this matter, but ...... The old man still doesn't approve of your participation in the battle for the prince, it's too dangerous, a son is wrong, the whole game is lost, but the loss is the life of your whole family, today you won half a son, tomorrow you know if you will be a chess difference? Haven't you thought about what will happen if you lose? Are you not afraid that your deeds will be known to Your Majesty? No matter how much Your Majesty favors you, you will definitely not allow your courtiers to participate in the struggle for the crown......"

Li Su said with a smile: "The kid guesses that when the case of Feng Du's assassination came to light, Your Majesty probably already knew that I was involved......

Li Ji was taken aback, and hurriedly said, "How can you see it?" If Your Majesty knew you were involved, why didn't you be held accountable? ”

Li Sudao: "Uncle Fang just said, the king of Wei is powerful, there are many ministers in the court, and it has become a unique family, no one in the emperors of the past and present is willing to see the situation of the courtiers forming a party and dominating the party, this is a very taboo thing for the emperor, before Feng Du was assassinated, I estimate that His Majesty was already suspicious of the King of Wei, so he dared to lay down this situation, so that the King of Jin took the opportunity to take the throne......"

After all, Li Ji was scheming, and when he heard this, he suddenly showed a look of enlightenment: "You mean, Your Majesty deliberately connived at your private actions, and he also wanted King Jin to ascend the throne?" ”

"Yes, the root of the Emperor's Art is, in fact, ' Check and balance', the balance between the left and right is the safest, the imbalance of the court faction, the gap between strength and weakness is too obvious is the situation that the emperor is the least willing to see, His Majesty is a talented and heroic lord, especially his own control of the court, he must not tolerate a certain faction is getting stronger and stronger, even if it is his own son, once there is a sprout, he will support one faction, suppress the other, in order to maintain this situation of balance between the left and right in his lifetime, in order to make the courtiers in awe of the imperial power and the emperor......"
