Chapter 473: The Former God of War King Zhonghei
After the luncheon, in addition to a few protégés of Wang Zhonghei's descendants, the rest of the guests also left, just as Li Qingmai started his steps and wanted to leave with the two kings of Yan and Di, he was stopped by the steward of the general's mansion who had already noticed it: "Your Highness, the head of the family is invited!" ”
This time, Li Qing did not see the Tang Dynasty God of War Wang Zhonghei, who had been powerful in the northwest for nearly ten years, but only this time when he entered the mansion did he know that the former God of War is now in a worse state than he imagined, and even such a major event as the birthday of an only mother can not come out, and the deterioration of his physical condition can be seen.
Said sorry to the two kings of Yan and Di beside him, and slowly walked towards the inner hall bedroom under the leadership of the general's mansion brocade steward, although the Wang family is one of the five wealthy families in Beijing, but both the building and the layout are less extravagant and luxurious, and a little more open and close, before stepping into the room, Li Qing smelled a strong medicinal fragrance, shook his head, and when he stepped into the room, he found that there was more than one person in the room, except for Wang Yunxiu, who had changed back into a daughter's clothes at some point. The remaining two middle-aged men stood side by side.
One of these two people is sturdy, dressed in black, like an iron tower, and the other is dressed in green clothes, with a handsome and elegant face, and a little more chic and casual all over his body, this kind of posture and charm, Li Qing can see at a glance that these two people are by no means attendants of the palace, neither attendants, but should be the protégés of the former officials of the palace, and a person's body charm is the least deceiving.
The background of the Wang family is really extraordinary, not to mention anything else, just the two in front of him are enough to rank in the top three among the generals of Jiannan.
Nodding at a few people, he took two steps forward, looking at the thin-faced and pale man who was barely made up by the brocade quilt with the support of Wang Yunxiu, Li Qing arched his hand and said, "How is the general?" ”
Li Qing, the heir of Wang Zhong, who used to be alone in the Tang Dynasty and half of the sky, has full respect.
Regarding Li Qing's greetings, Wang Zhonghe, who has long been eroded by illness and no longer has the charm of the past, smiled bitterly, and reluctantly said: "Your Highness cares, and the lower officials are grateful, but now that your lower officials are seriously ill and bedridden, you really can't salute Your Highness, and I hope Your Highness will not blame you." ”
"The reason why I invited His Highness to come this time is mainly because over the years, His Highness's name is too prosperous, looking at the border generals who can calmly and unhurriedly win big victories in the face of Tubo, it is very rare, Yun Xiu has a strong personality, if she doesn't really admire, she won't say these words." Maybe it was because of his sincere love for the things on the battlefield, and when he said these words in one breath, the pale Wang Zhongsi coughed violently for a while, only to be frightened that two middle-aged men who were originally indifferent not far away were about to step forward to serve.
waved his hand, signaling that the two of them did not need to be nervous, and smiled apologetically at Li Qing in front of him; "Let His Royal Highness smile, born in the army, thanks to His Majesty's fancy today, as the envoy of the Four Towns Festival, to this day, there are still many generals in the Northwest Army who are protégés of the former officials, but their own bodies are clear, now I have little time, to let them worry, every time they come to Beijing, it is inevitable to visit, but they don't know, when today's Ziguang has four seas, they are not only my protégés, but also when today's protégés."
"The lower officials know that time is running out, and this time they are familiar with His Royal Highness, and some words will inevitably seem nagging."
Glancing at the woman with a cold face sitting on the edge of the bed with red eyes and tears, Li Qing shook his head, no matter how strong he was in front of outsiders, how deep his mind was about the city, he still seemed helpless in the face of birth, old age, sickness and death, and sighed, Li Qing sat on the stool that had been prepared on the side, and opened his mouth to persuade: "You must not give up on yourself, you really have to count the old, the old general Wang died fighting for the country back then, His Majesty took pity on the loyalty and courage of the Wang family, and brought the general into the palace as a righteous son and raised him, speaking of which, The general can also be regarded as the brother of this king, and saying these words shows that the general has not seen outside, how can this king not know how to lift. ”
Hearing this, the pale-faced Wang Zhonghei was not moved at first, but turned his head to look at the only daughter who was sitting on the side and serving him with a strange face, as if he thought of something, sighed, and said: "Your Highness must not be like this, Your Majesty raised the subordinate officials back then, and the subordinate officials were already grateful, how dare they not know the high and low and call the highness brothers and sisters." ”
Naturally, he didn't realize the meaning behind the words of the father and daughter in front of him, and looked at Wang Zhonghe, whose face was getting paler, "The general should rest early, and come to visit the general when this king is free." ”
Naturally understanding the kindness of King Xuanyi Shou in front of him, Wang Zhongsi nodded at Li Qing, his current physical condition is indeed unable to support it, "In this case, the lower official will let Ziyi and Guangbi send His Royal Highness on behalf of the lower official." ”
His eyes were slightly condensed, looking at the two middle-aged men with different attitudes not far away, Li Qing had a rare look of surprise on his face, and stood up, "It turns out that the two are the famous generals Guo and Li, although this king is in Jiannan, but he has long heard of the prestige of the two generals. ”
If it weren't for the sincerity of the Xuanyi Shouwang in front of him, Rao is Guo and Li are extraordinary, this time they will be angry enough, if it is after the Anshi Rebellion, these two people are famous all over the world, but the prestige of the two at this moment is really not, these two can appear here, one is idle at home, and the other is a Jiuyuan Taishou although he has an official position.
The two glanced at each other, and Li Guangbi, who had a relatively straightforward personality, took the lead in speaking: "Your Highness is smiling, if you want to talk about Megatron and look at the court, apart from His Royal Highness King Shou, who dares to praise him like this?" ”
"I have long heard that His Royal Highness has a good command of the army, and I want to ask His Highness for advice today with the light of General Wang, and I hope His Highness will not hesitate to give advice."
Signaling the two to walk out of the door, and glanced at Wang Yunxiu, who didn't know when Li Qing came out, Li Qing smiled indifferently, and did not answer the questions of the two, looking at the general in front of him who would be powerful in the near future, and asked rhetorically: "I don't dare to give teaching, but before answering the questions of the two, this king also wants to ask the two generals what they think about the unified army?" ”
In the face of Li Qing's rhetorical question, the two did not slow down at all, and it was still Li Guangbi who took the lead in speaking: "In my opinion, commanding the army is simple and simple, as long as the order is prohibited, the rewards and punishments are clear, there are meritorious rewards, there are punishments, and the merits and demerits do not offset each other, as long as the army is strictly disciplined, the combat strength will naturally not be worse?" ”
Guo Ziyi, who was dressed in white beside him, looked at the few people in front of him, and said slowly: "What Guangbi said, although it is reasonable, but it is not comprehensive, in the opinion of the lower officials, if an army wants to have extraordinary combat effectiveness, relying on military discipline alone will not become a big thing after all. ”
