Chapter 911: Settle down

After coming to this era, Li Xinchen has not seen some famous figures in history, whether it is Xu Ling, Xiao Maha and others, Wei Xiaokuan and Wei Chi Hui and others, and even Yang Su and Changsun Sheng, there are all kinds of them.

For those who are familiar with the history of the Northern and Southern Dynasties and the Sui Dynasty, these names can be regarded as thunderous, but having said that, after all, these people appeared as courtiers in history, and a large part of them stood on the opposite side of Li Xinchen, so Li Xinchen didn't have to worry about how to get along with them, he only needed to think about how to defeat them.

With Li Xinchen's current ability and strength, even if Yang Jian is in person, he will not back down, after all, Yang Jian at this time is far from being compared to the majestic Sui Guogong in another time and space.

But Li Yuan who appeared in front of Li Xinchen was different, Li Xinchen knew very well what he had done in history, to be honest, Li Xinchen did not control Li Yuan's grasp, but at this time, since Li Yuan had been sent to the door, Li Xinchen would definitely not cherish talents.

Come to think of it, heroes are born in troubled times, if there is no toss from Emperor Yang of Sui, maybe Li Yuan will be the Duke of Tang in the end, and maybe because of his calm character, he will rise step by step, dominate the world, and finally leave his reputation as a loyal minister in history.

Originally, there were many heavy sayings in history about Li Yuan's army, the help of Liu Wenjing and Pei Lin and others, and the promotion of Li Shimin, the second son who was ambitious in the world, etc., all seemed to shape Li Yuan's image as a timid and fearful person who was completely pushed to the throne.

But Li Xinchen didn't believe in this very much, first, there was a joke mixed in it, and it was difficult to distinguish the truth from the false over time; Second, the image of Li Yuan was shaped by benevolence and virtue, and it was completely forced to take over the world by raising troops, which seemed to be no harm to the Tang Dynasty and many large and small courts in later generations who boasted of being descendants of the Li family in the Tang Dynasty.

At least Li Xinchen found that there are still many deviations and discrepancies in history through his own judgment in this time and space, after all, the concise historian only shapes a person through a few words, which naturally leads to the image of this person being extremely stereotypical and monotonous. But in fact, everyone is flesh and blood, how can there be only one constant character in life?

For example, Li Yuan, who Li Xinchen just met, who would have thought that in history, it was this young man who looked quite heroic and finally won the world? And if he didn't understand this period of history, Li Xinchen would never have associated this young man with the generous and generous image created in the history books.

The times create heroes, it is true, sometimes the rolling tide of the times can indeed change a person a lot.

Li Xinchen was not sure that his descendants would give Li Yuan this opportunity—he had no descendants yet—but he was sure that, at least here, Li Yuan would only exist as a loyal and honest courtier, not as an ambitious tyrant.

Li Yuan left with Li Xinchen's promise, and since Li Xinchen agreed, then he had to wait for Chang'an's reply, Yuntian's Yu Yi and Jieting's Helan division had begun to withdraw, and Xiao Shilian, who had left Yangping Pass, also retreated his troops and horses into Hanzhong.

In addition, Changsun Sheng, Liang Luan, Niu Tong and others have begun to arrange to receive cities from all over the country.

Li Xinchen had to admit that Changsun Sheng was indeed an expert in local civil affairs and diplomacy, and under his mediation, almost all the cities fell into Li Xinchen's hands safely, and the major families that had always had a gap because of the distribution of interests have maintained "happiness" at least now on the surface.

At least when Li Xinchen arrived in Anding, the streets were peaceful and lively, and I am afraid that no one would have thought that just a few days ago, this was the front line of the battlefield, and the entire city was almost in flames.

Changsun Sheng and Niu Tong, who arrived in Anding first, were waiting for Li Xinchen. From stabilizing the situation in Tianshui to receiving the surrounding counties of Tianshui, and finally rushing to Anding, Changsun Sheng's journey can also be said to be non-stop, so when Li Xinchen saw Changsun Sheng, this guy's eyes were bloodshot, the dark circles under his eyes were obvious, and his clothes were full of dust and mud, and he didn't know how long he hadn't changed.

Of course, in fact, Niu Tong, who was standing next to Changsun Sheng, and almost everyone present, including Li Xinchen, were like this. The tense situation in the northwest has left no way for anyone who is running around for it to rest.

"Good work." Li Xinchen stretched out his hand to support Changsun Sheng, who wanted to salute, regardless of dignity, and directly took his wrist and walked up the steps of the Anding Mansion, while Niu Tong and Cheng Feng and others did not dare to slack off and quickly followed. Li Xinchen smiled and said: "This time I can stabilize the northwest, the eldest grandson and elder brother have a great contribution, and the credit book should be the first credit!" ”

The eldest grandson Sheng was stunned for a moment, he was ecstatic, he didn't expect that Li Xinchen did not give the first credit to any general who fought on the front line, but gave him this civil official, although it is conceivable that Li Xinchen also wants to appease Yang Su and others in Chang'an, but there must also be Li Xinchen's affirmation of his efforts!

This kind of affirmation is tantamount to an encouragement to Changsun Sheng, who has long felt that his background is not as good as Yang Su's, and his ability is not as outstanding as his.

And Li Xinchen looked at the excited and uncontrollable look on Changsun Sheng's face, and smiled slightly, Changsun Sheng's expression was obviously what Li Xinchen was willing to see, and Changsun Sheng's mind Li Xinchen didn't find a clue.

After all, whether it is Changsun Sheng or Li Yuan, these young people are all standing with Yang Su now, but Yang Su's ability and charm are too outstanding, so at least in terms of restrictions, there is no way for them to compare with Yang Su. Young people are the most competitive, so it is understandable to feel lonely.

I think that when Li Xinchen gradually surpassed Xiao Shilian and Pei Zilie, the two of them would feel uncomfortable to some extent, but this discomfort was not jealousy of Li Xinchen, but a kind of self-blame for their own incompetence.

And as Xiao Shilian and Pei Zilie gradually achieved results in the subsequent war, their thinking naturally became more and more diluted, and it was impossible to compete with Li Xinchen, it turned out that Li Xinchen was definitely a demon of this era, but the two of them can definitely be called the best among their peers now.

Li Xinchen also wants to give Changsun Sheng a certain amount of confidence through the conquest of the northwest, and Li Xinchen does not mind cultivating such a politician who has stabilized the border for two generations and forty years in history.

As a latecomer, Li Xinchen is well aware of the benefits and opportunities that an excellent diplomat can bring to the country.
