Chapter 127: The First Year of Qiming
Li Haochen, who had just sat down, did not get the slightest rest, after Zhang Han left, Lu Tong rushed in in a hurry, there were some doubts in his eyes, and he looked like he wanted to speak and stopped, all of this was in Li Haochen's eyes, Li Haochen saw Lu Tong's hesitation, so he spoke first: "Lu Tong, although you and I are called master and slave, but in fact we are close relatives, you are Huanting's brother, that is, my brother, if you have anything to say, you don't have to hide it, just say it directly!" ”
Lu Tong was broken by Li Haochen's thoughts, and his face was a little embarrassed, but he no longer had scruples, and said directly: "General, why don't you explain to General Zhang Han?" Although I don't know what kind of chess the general is playing in his heart, I know the general's personality, and I know that the general will definitely not be untargeted, and he must be fully prepared, so why is the general hiding General Zhang Han at this moment? Could it be that the general does not trust General Zhang Han? ”
Li Haochen sighed heavily when he heard the words and said: "You only know that I have always been cautious, but you don't know that I am also taking risks today, everything is unknown!" Speaking of this, looking at Lu Tong's more puzzled expression, Li Haochen continued to explain: "This Li Shimin is menacing, obviously he has made all preparations, I don't know how long it will take for the imperial court to reflect it, if I tell Zhang Han that he still has reinforcements behind him, it will inevitably make him slack, and the resistance will naturally not do his best, if Li Haochen is given a chance because of this, this will inevitably be a serious blow to us, and it is entirely possible for him to capture Chang'an in one go, but if I don't tell Zhang Han that there will be reinforcements in the future, With Zhang Han's character, he will definitely fight to the death and not let Li Shimin cross the Tongguan step, so that he can buy enough time for the imperial court to react, as for whether this time is too late, it depends on the will of God! In ancient times, the overlord of Chu broke the cauldron and overthrew the rule of the Qin Dynasty, and today I am also drawing a scoop based on the gourd, hoping to continue the rule of the prince. ”
After finishing speaking, Li Haochen seemed to be a lot more relaxed because he said the words in his heart, but the tired look on his face did not decrease.
After listening to Li Haochen's explanation, Lu Tong understood Li Haochen's plan in his heart, and said respectfully to Li Haochen: "The general is far-sighted, I can't wait!" Datang has a general here, it is really a blessing for Datang! Lu Tong's seemingly taboo words are indeed from the bottom of his heart, and there is only Li Haochen in Lu Tong's heart, as for the Tang Dynasty, it has nothing to do with him whether he is dead or alive!
Li Haochen listened to Lu Tong's words, sighed again and said: "Lu Tong, don't say such taboo words in the future, be careful that the wall has ears!" I hope that Datang will prosper, so that we can enjoy this peaceful life! After Li Haochen finished speaking, he waved his hand at Lu Tong and motioned for Lu Tong to retreat, and Lu Tong respectfully bowed when he saw this, and then withdrew from the room.
The first year of the Tang Dynasty is very fast, in a blink of an eye to the eighth day of the first month, but also the first working day of the first year of Qiming, this day is also the crown prince Li Jiancheng enthroned the throne of the succession ceremony to the emperor, Li Jiancheng respectfully from Li Yuan The seal of the Son of Heaven was announced, and after announcing the succession to the emperor's throne, the succession ceremony ended.
Immediately followed by the reward of the ministers, the old ministers added fiefs one by one to enter the official title, and the ministers of the East Palace were also awarded important positions one by one, of course, there was no Li Haochen among them, Li Haochen was still grounded at home at the moment, and he was not exempted from his grounding because the prince succeeded to the throne and added the official to the knighthood, nor because the prince succeeded to the throne and amnesty the world.
In this succession ceremony, it is worth mentioning that among the six rates of the East Palace, which belonged to the original East Palace, Zhang Han, the commander of the Left Guard who was renamed the trap camp because of Li Haochen, actually proposed to go to Tongguan to conduct military exercises on the day of Li Jiancheng's succession, and obtained the emperor Li Jiancheng and Emperor Li Yuan's current court, and Zhang Han became the only one other than Li Haochen who was not promoted to the East Palace.
The reason why Zhang Han's recital will be played by the court is because Li Yuan and Li Jiancheng both think that Zhang Han is complaining about Li Haochen, and they both passed the eyeliner in advance and knew that Zhang Han had a private meeting with Li Haochen a few days ago, which made the two helmsmen of Datang feel deeply dissatisfied with it, after all, both of them wanted to hone Li Haochen and make this sharp sword more obedient, and Zhang Han's approach more or less affected the plans of the two, and naturally did not get any good results, although they agreed to Zhang Han's recital, In fact, it was just to send Zhang Han away from Chang'an, the purpose of this was to punish Zhang Han for not knowing the times, which had the meaning of distribution, and on the other hand, so that Zhang Han would no longer contact Li Haochen.
For these, Zhang Han's rough line didn't think so much, for Zhang Han's letter, the emperor and the emperor agreed to his invitation, he completed the things Li Haochen explained, and he was still in a good mood, as for not getting a reward, these Zhang Han didn't care, he was not interested in the court, and he was not interested in being a big official. He was born in hardship, he just wants to watch Datang become stronger step by step, and the people can live and work in peace and contentment, and no longer be displaced, for which he is willing to give everything. This is also why Zhang Han is willing to obey Li Haochen's orders, because he knows that Li Haochen's thoughts are the same as his, and he believes that Li Haochen is capable of doing this.
The next day, Zhang Han came to Li Haochen's mansion and hurriedly told Li Haochen that the emperor and the emperor had agreed to his invitation, so he left Li Haochen's mansion and rushed to Tongguan with all his troops and horses. After Zhang Han left, Li Haochen secretly prayed to the sky, hoping that Zhang Han's trip would be safe.
In the morning, Li Haochen sent Zhang Han away, and in the afternoon, he came to his mansion thinking that he was an uninvited guest, and as soon as this person entered the courtyard, he laughed and said: "Brother Haochen, don't come unharmed!" I'm here to see you! ”
Li Haochen listened to the voice, then walked to the middle courtyard, and was stunned when he saw the person coming, and then said with a relieved smile: "What kind of wind brought you out?" It's not an evil wind, is it? After finishing speaking, he also laughed, obviously the person who came to Li Haochen had a lot to do with it, with the hearty laughter of the two, all the doubts and questions in their hearts before were all withdrawn into their stomachs, and the only thing left in their hearts was the feelings between brothers.
The two looked at each other, their eyes contained a lot of content, and after a while, the two looked at each other and smiled, and then sat down in the pavilion in the back garden of Li Haochen's mansion, and then the person came and said: "Haochen, you have been wronged recently, you are doing well now, what can I do for my brother?" ”
