Li Jing, the word pharmacist, a native of Yongzhou Sanyuan, the son of the Guan Long family, is the nephew of the Sui general Han Baohu; His grandfather, Li Chongyi, served as the assassin of Yinzhou and was named the Duke of Yongkang; Father Li Quanshi Sui, the official to Zhao County Taishou, is a veritable official eunuch son of the child.

Li Jing looks burly and magnificent, influenced by the atmosphere of the Guanlong family, he has been literary and martial since he was a child, and quite enterprising, once said his father: "If the eldest husband meets the era of reconciliation with the monarch of Shengming, he should make meritorious contributions in order to obtain wealth and nobility." ”

His uncle Han Baohu was a famous general of the Great Sui Dynasty on the same level as He Ruobi and Yang Su, and he personally taught Li Jing martial arts.

Once practicing the horse lance, Han Baohu stood in place, let Li Jing ride a horse to speed up, and at the moment of skimming, he pierced the big earrings under Han Baohu's ears with the tip of the lance. This action is extremely dangerous, if Li Jing is not careful, Han Baohu will be stabbed with a large piece of meat, but every time he trains, Li Jing can accurately stab the gap in the earring.

Presumably with martial arts, Han Baohu praised Li Jing's level of military tactics and tactics, and every time he talked about military affairs, he clapped his hands and praised him, and stroked him and said: "The only person who can discuss the art of Sun Wu (Sun Wu and Wu Qi) with me is you!" ”

Li Jingchu Shi Sui for Chang'an County Gong Cao, and then successively served as the chief of the palace, the military department of the driving department of the Wailang (Wang Shichong also served as this official), although his official position is humble, but his talent is famous among the Sui Dynasty ministers, the Ministry of Shangshu Niu Hong praised him for having "Wang Zuozhicai", the prime minister of the Sui Dynasty Yang Su also stroked the bed and said to him: "You should finally sit in this position!" (At the same time, only Feng Deyi and Li Jing received this praise)

In the last years of the Great Cause, Li Jing served as the commander of Mayi County and fought against the Turks under Li Yuan's account. At that time, Li Yuan, who was left behind in Taiyuan of the Sui Dynasty, secretly recruited troops and horses, and had the ambition of the Quartet. Li Jing sensed Li Yuan's motive, so he disguised himself as a prisoner and prepared to go to Jiangdu to report to Emperor Yang of Sui.

But when he arrived in Daxing, the capital of Daxing, Guanzhong was already in chaos, and the road was blocked and could not be done, so Li Jing simply stayed in Daxing, and came up with the idea to the then Jingzhao County Cheng's Gu Yi (Tianzhu people) and Zuo Yiwei's general Yin Shishishi, to collect troops, dig the ancestral grave of the Li family, burn the bones of his ancestors into ashes, and sprinkle them in wine for the soldiers to drink, so as to express the determination to fight the Tang army to the death.

However, since the Battle of Huoyi, the Guanlong family and the local rebel army fell to Li Tang in large numbers, and Li Jing alone was unable to save the collapse. Soon, Daxing was broken by the Tang army, and Li Jing was captured.

Li Jing was full of wealth and ambition, and when he was about to be beheaded, he shouted: "Ming Gongxing rebels, originally to get rid of riots in the world, why didn't he complete the big thing, and kill the strong man with personal grudges?" Li Yuan admired his words and deeds, and Li Shimin appreciated his intelligence and courage, so he was released. He was immediately recruited as a staff member of the Duke of Qin.

Li Jing, as the first marshal in the late Sui and early Tang Dynasties, was second only to Li Shimin, who opened the halo of the protagonist, and his military achievements. I won't go into more detail about the rest of the story, and our story starts here.

At night, Chang'an (Daxing), Li Jing's mansion.

Li Jing, 47 years old this year, was already covered with weather, he was dressed in a series of civilian clothes, wearing a scarf on his head, frowning, holding a candlelight, and studying the military books and war strategies of the past dynasties in his study.

As a general, the first thing is to be deaf and clear!

Li Jing judged that someone was walking on the eaves by a slight noise coming from outside the house.

"Which friend? Since you're here, you always have to see each other! Li Jing said without raising his head.

"Senior brother's senses are still so keen!" Zhang Chuchen praised heartily, and together with Zhang Zhongjian, they both rolled over from the eaves and landed.

Hearing the sound, Li Jing was stunned for a moment, then ran out of the room in ecstasy, tried to restrain his voice, and said in surprise: "Senior brother, junior sister, it's really you!" ”

"Senior brother, long time no see!" Zhang Zhongjian came up and gave Li Jing a bear hug and said with a smile.

After a short period of excitement, Li Jing quickly regained his senses, glanced around slightly, and quickly pulled the two into the house, saying, "Enter the house and say!" Come into the house and say! ”

After entering the house, the three of them first chatted about the past, and then Zhang Zhongjian directly introduced the purpose of the trip.

Li Jing said while thinking carefully about the gains and losses: "In this way, the Holy Lord has regained his strength, you are now the people of Jinyiwei, and you want me to be your internal response, obtain Li Tang's information, and help the imperial court at a critical moment!" ”

Zhang Zhongjian nodded and said: "Yes, before leaving, the Holy Lord specially explained, once you accept the appointment of the imperial court, senior brother, then nominally I am the supreme person in charge of Jinyiwei in Daxing, and I am the core of the entire intelligence network, but in fact, in order to cover up you, senior brother, Jinyiwei's intelligence network in Daxing will be arranged according to you!" ”

Hearing this, Li Jing did not rush to express his position, but thought for a long time, but said with a wry smile: "Is it because the Holy Lord directly asked you to be open and honest with me because you have enough confidence in me, or does the Holy Lord not know that I have been captured by the Tang Army and accepted into the shogunate by Li Shimin, the Duke of Qin, or that once I am not available, I will be eliminated on the spot!" ”

Zhang Chuchen said angrily: "Oh, senior brother, where do you want to go!?" Although the saint has never met you, he is full of praise for you, and he also said that if he can get you Li Jing, he will get half of the world! The Holy Lord admires your talent so much, you and my brother and sister are married to Jin Lan and are like brothers and sisters, how can they get rid of you! ”

Li Jing frowned and said worriedly: "Senior brother, junior sister, don't hide it from the two, since the Holy Lord respects me so much, then it is inevitable for me, if I don't want to return to Sui again, it will be equivalent to standing on the opposite side of the Great Sui, how can the imperial court allow such a situation to happen!?" ”

Zhang Zhongjian patted Li Jing's shoulder and said with a smile: "Senior brother, don't worry!" What you have taken into account, I have taken into account! At that time, I asked the saint the same question, and the saint said that Li Jing could not express his position immediately, and the imperial court would give him time, one month, three months, half a year, and a year。。。。。。 The door of the imperial court is open to him at any time, waiting for one of his decisions! ”

"I asked again, why do you treat the senior brother so politely!? The saint said that those who are masters must have enough mind and bearing, especially for a great talent like Li Jing, only by winning his heart can he make the best use of his talents! ”

"Holy Lord~!" Hearing this, Li Jing, who had experienced the vicissitudes of life, was moved, his deep eyes flashed with tears, and he said: "No, I didn't expect the saint to value me Li Jing so much!" ”

Zhang Chuchen remembered his world-minded spirit when he first met Yang Guang at that time, and said proudly: "It's not! Otherwise, Zhong Jian and I wouldn't have worked hard for the imperial court! ”

Seeing this, Zhang Zhongjian seized the opportunity and immediately took out a yellow silk silk from his arms and said: "Li Jing, the Cheng of Mayi County, listens to the edict!" ”
