Chapter 368: Li Jing's Persistence

The news that Zhao Wang Li Yuanjing is here is only known to a few high-level officials.

As for why King Zhao wanted to hide his whereabouts, Li Jing could naturally understand.

If it weren't for His Majesty's repeated invitations, Li Jing would not have come this time.

Everyone knows this truth.

In recent years, Li Jing first destroyed the Turks, and then followed Li Yuanjing with Li Ji to rehabilitate Hou Junji's rebellion, and also took Tamna and Dongzhou, in addition, he also won more than a dozen gold and silver mines in Goguryeo, and there was little limelight for a while.

After returning from Silla, Li Jing had a heart-to-heart relationship with Li Shimin, and there were actually many things that could not be said between the monarch and the ministers, but there were also many things that could be said.

Li Jing is not the kind of person who doesn't know the height of the sky, so he directly told Li Shimin that he has been too strong in the limelight over the years, even if there is no doubt between them and the monarch and the minister, it will not be a good thing for Datang in the long run.

Therefore, Li Jing begged Li Shimin to let him stay in the Haizhou Army with peace of mind, and when the imperial court decided on military reform, he would take out the experience of the Haizhou Army without reservation.

Li Jing also wanted to refrigerate himself for a period of time, and Li Shimin naturally knew the reason why Li Jing did this, so he agreed.

However, the good times did not last long, and Li Jing only stayed in the Haizhou Army for less than a year and a half before he was activated by Li Shimin again.

Li Jing actually didn't want to come out, according to his expectations, even if it was a military reform, he only needed to give advice to Guo Fushan behind his back, as long as the above ideas were clear, there would naturally be no big problems in the operation below.

But this time, Li Shimin directly asked Li Jing to lead the army to the battle, which was a request, not an order.

After receiving the news, Li Jing sighed helplessly, and could only accept this invitation, the emperor had lowered his posture, if he refused, he was afraid that he would become the second Lu Zushang.

Lu Zushang was appointed as the governor of Jiaozhou in the second year of Zhenguan, and Li Shimin personally talked to him before the appointment, and Lu Zushang also agreed in person.

But then Lu Zushang repented, repeatedly said that he was sick and refused to go to the post, Li Shimin first sent Du Ruhui to pass the decree to persuade him, and then sent his wife's brother Zhou Fan to persuade him, but the result was still refused, Li Shimin was furious and ordered to kill Lu Zushang.

A generation of geniuses has withered because of this, Li Shimin actually still values Lu Zushang very much, and promised to transfer him back in three years, and Li Shimin has attached great importance to his credibility since he ascended the throne, he knows where his weaknesses are, so he is not allowed to make mistakes in this regard at all.

Even if he has any dissatisfaction with Lu Zushang, in order to buy people's hearts, he will definitely transfer Lu Zushang back after three years.

If Lu Zushang did not refuse at that time, but followed Li Shimin's arrangement and went to Jiaozhou, not to mention now, at least ten years after Zhenguan, the position of prime minister of the Tang Dynasty would inevitably have Lu Zushang's name.

Even Lu Zushang and Li Shimin were killed, Li Jing had also had a heart-to-heart relationship with Li Shimin before, and Li Shimin knew his worries, but he still invited himself to come forward, but it is conceivable that Li Shimin had already thought of all the countermeasures, so at this time Li Jing had no way to refuse.

This is also the reason why Li Jing locked himself up directly after coming to Jiaozhou, and did not take the initiative to communicate with Li Chengqian, I only need to do my own things when I come, and I will not get involved in other things.

Naturally, there is King Zhao to help him, and the old man is a part-time worker!

However, this time Li Jing couldn't help it, because this decision was too nonsense.

The angry Li Jing directly killed the prince's temporary mansion alone, and when he found Li Yuanjing, he was slammed.

"Is this your decision or the prince's decision?"

"Does it make a difference?" Li Yuanjing looked at Li Jing calmly and motioned for him to sit down and speak.

"The difference? Of course there is a difference! Li Jing was stunned for a moment, but immediately understood that this should be the prince's decision, and continued: "The prince is young and can't understand the deep meaning, why are you messing around with him?" ”

"Senior Brother Yao, this king is also a child!" Li Yuanjing smiled and poured Li Jing a cup of tea.

"......" Li Jing was suddenly speechless, and then suddenly realized that Li Yuanjing was only one year older than Li Chengqian.

But at this age......

Why does Li Yuanjing give people the feeling of an old fox who has lived for decades? In front of him, Li Chengqian was as stupid as a slightly better naΓ―ve child.

Li Jing took a deep breath, looked at Li Yuanjing with melancholy eyes, and said: "You may have your intentions in doing this, the old man can't control it, and he doesn't dare to take care of it, but you must come forward to stop this matter!" ”

"What if the king doesn't care?" Li Yuanjing said calmly.

"Whether you care about it or not, this order can't get out of the old man, and the old man can't know his mistakes and make them, if this order is issued, what is the point of military reform? You know the dangers better than the old man! Li Jing said angrily.

Although Li Jing also has a thorough understanding of military reform, Li Jing still feels that there is something he doesn't understand all the time.

As the initiator of this military reform, Li Yuanjing undoubtedly knows more.

Although Li Jing has already achieved fame, he also respects the belief that the master is a teacher, he has his arrogance and his modesty, so after understanding, in front of Li Yuanjing, he always has the idea of learning to steal teachers.

Li Yuanjing sighed secretly in his heart, Li Jing was still the same Li Jing, and he couldn't rub sand in his eyes.

But some things are not a matter of sand or not.

"Senior Brother Yao, there are two kinds of people who are most afraid in this world, one is the one who does not dare to make mistakes, and the other is the one who keeps making mistakes in the same matter." Li Yuanjing said unhurriedly: "The prince is soft-hearted, and he can't see anyone wronged!" ”

"Then you can explain it to him! Is it necessary? Li Jing instantly understood Li Yuanjing's intentions.

It seems that the prince said something in front of Li Yuanjing about this matter, and what Li Yuanjing means now is to ignore it, let the situation develop, and then teach the prince a lesson, so that he will always remember the current feeling.

Theoretically, that's fine, but is it theoretical?

How big is the impact of this matter?

That would directly lead to the failure of the entire military reform, even the emperor would not dare to do so at this time.

"If this price can make him really grow, it will be worth it!" Li Yuanjing said.

"No, the old man can listen to you on weekdays, but this matter is absolutely not good!" Li Jing shook his head angrily and refused.

No matter what Li Yuanjing is, he can't do it anyway, he can't sit back and watch the entire military reform be ruined because of an immature decision by the crown prince.

Judging from the current situation, if this decision is really followed, Datang will have at least 200,000 more veterans, is this just a matter of 200,000 people?

Forty-year-olds are all accepted, forty-five-year-olds are coming, do you want it or not?

People's ** can't be satisfied, if you meet this, the other will jump out, is it possible that you want to be satisfied with each one?
