Chapter 221: Good News from the North
try {setPageStyleFont(); } catch(ex){}
A few days later, a fast horse galloped into Chang'an City from the north. Soon, the Taiji Palace received good news from the north.
"Hahaha! Fang Xiang, auxiliary machine, come and take a look, the pharmacist came from the north to report the good news, and the Yanmen performed martial arts, which frightened Xue Yantuo's people into desertion and fled. ”
Li Shimin laughed and handed the good news in his hand to Fang Xuanling, Fang Xuanling was not as happy as Li Shimin after reading the good news, but pointed to the good news and said: "Strange, Yi Nan and his eldest son have been surrounded at that time, why didn't the pharmacist capture them directly?" In this way, wouldn't Xue Yantuo in the north of our country be a great disaster?"
The eldest grandson Wuji took the good news and looked at it a few times, stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Fang Xiang's words are wrong, if you capture Yi Nan, I am afraid it will cause a big trouble for my Tang Dynasty, General Li's approach is very good, and he will be honest at the border for a while." ”
"Oh? What do you mean by that? Fang Xuanling was a little puzzled, seeing that the eldest grandson Wuji and Li Shimin both had inexplicable smiles, there was a feeling that he was being kept in the dark.
The eldest grandson Wuji pointed at Fang Xuanling, and said with a smile: "Fang Xiang, Fang Xiang, you really haven't seen through it this time!" Let me ask you, what will happen if you capture Yi Nan and his eldest son? ”
"The consequences? What can be the consequences? Isn't there a big problem missing from the north of our country? Fang Xuanling obviously didn't bypass a single tendon, and he was not on the same channel as the eldest grandson Wuji and others.
"Hehe, but there are so many envoys of the subject country on the spot, do you think it is appropriate to do this?"
"We can say that we invite Yi Nan to enter the customs as a guest, and I don't think those envoys will have so many ideas."
"Good! For the time being, those envoys have no ideas, but what about Yi Nan's second son, Tu Li lost? When he learned that his father had been captured, he must have been furious and led his people in a massive invasion of our borders.
If Yi Nan's family of three is here, then capturing them may cause chaos in the Xue Yantuo tribe, but Yi Nan's second son is not there, and Xue Yantuo's main force still has 200,000 people. And General Li's move can be described as wonderful, presumably Yinan Khan can't sleep and eat now, right? ”
The eldest grandson Wuji laughed as he spoke, and Fang Xuanling pondered for a while and figured out how powerful it was, and laughed along. "Hahaha! I see, but I started to look at it. ”
Li Shimin smiled and took out another letter: "Fang Xiang, you are not the only one who looks like, look at it, this is Hou Junji's battle report, and he also mixed a copy of Li Jing, saying that he let go of Yinan Khan without permission." ”
When it came to Hou Junji, Fang Xuanling and Eldest Sun Wuji's faces were a little unnatural, it seemed that this evil star general was not very popular, and he was a little unpopular.
After reading Hou Junji's recital, Fang Xuanling smiled bitterly: "No wonder General Hou, if I encounter such a situation, maybe I will be like him." ”
Li Shimin smiled and changed the topic: "The pharmacist handled this matter well, he was not carried away by the credit in front of him, Jiang is still old and spicy in the end, I sent him to the border to preside over the martial arts exercise, I plan to take advantage of this border martial arts exercise, let the pharmacist lead the troops to inspect the northern border, to deter Xue Yantuo, simply deter to the end!" He hasn't been able to jump up for a few years! ”
The eldest grandson Wuji and Fang Xuanling bowed their hands: "Your Majesty is wise! ”
"Excuse me! I can't stand these false courtesies, speaking of which, I will go to Chen Fei's kid's manor tomorrow to hold a state banquet, and I don't know how the kid is prepared, I heard the eunuch report that the manor is very unique, I heard it itching, and I can't wait to see it now. ”
"Your Majesty, Chen Fei's salt-making method has been sent to try it a few days ago, this method can indeed improve the yield and purity of salt, and he also proposed what beach 'salt drying method', the minister thinks there is some truth, but you can try it."
"Well, I've also seen it, and there is indeed some truth, so I'll leave this matter to Fang Xiang." Li Shimin pondered for a while and said: "Chen Fei does have some talents, but he can be useful, but this person's temperament is a little nonsense, I have always thought about what reward to give him, and what good opinions does the auxiliary engine room have?" ”
"Is this" The eldest grandson Wuji and Fang Xuanling also had some difficulties, Chen Fei was young after all, had no experience in officialdom, and was not suitable for big officials with real power, but some small scattered officials felt condescending, so neither of them had any ideas for the time being.
Li Shimin was also a little disappointed when he saw that the two of them did not speak, he had been having a headache about this matter, he had hoped that the two of them could come up with ideas, but now it seems that he can't count on it.
"I'd better let him polish his temperament in the army and then think about the matter of sealing the official, it's really not okay to let him go to the Strange Workshop for a few years, isn't this guy going to invent things, I let him invent enough!"
At the end, Li Shimin added: "Tomorrow morning is the competition after the heroes, let Chen Fei also come to participate in the half." ”
The eldest grandson Wuji and Fang Xuanling looked at each other and smiled bitterly, secretly saying that His Majesty is really attentive to this Chen Fei, and he has always been thinking about the reward given to him.
"Ahh Chen Fei rubbed his nose and muttered a whisper, and then he didn't care about taking a sip of water and shouting at the command eunuch.
"Hey, hey, hey! This cloth is hanging crookedly! Stretch your hand a little higher! Ay! Right! There it is! The tie is strong! ”
"This peach feast is not up to standard! The taste is okay, but the shape is too ugly to be on the table, so it is withdrawn! Redo it! ”
"What's on top of this little cake? Is it cream? No, no, no! Hurry up and redo it! Your Majesty and the ministers of civil and military affairs are coming tomorrow, can you grow a snack and learn faster? Go redo! Don't think about sleeping today! ”
"Please! Big brother, is it so hard for me to let you stack these goblets? How many times have you collapsed? Isn't it okay to put these cups together a little bit? If you don't put it well, fuck me off! Lao Tzu let someone else come! ”
"I'm so." Chen Fei was panting and fanning the wind, everything in the manor had to be checked by him personally, so he was in a hurry and did not stop for a moment, and his tone was also scathing, and when he saw a word that was not pleasing to the eye, he was scolding, and he was already smoking, and he couldn't even speak.
Chen Fei finally took a break to find a place to rest for a while, and it hadn't been two minutes since he sat down when he was interrupted by a whispering voice.
"The Divine Decree has arrived! Chen Fei of Yongle Village received the order! ”
"My God, why did you come to the Holy Decree again?" Chen Feisheng stood up without love and ran outside to receive the order.
"Pass on Your Majesty's message, Chen Fei of Xuanyongle Village will arrive at the royal martial arts arena on time tomorrow to participate in the civil and military competition, don't be late, Qinci!"
Ha? Chen Fei put a big question mark in his heart. Participating in the civil and military competition? Try a big-headed ghost! What the hell is that? What about playing with me?
Although he was puzzled, the holy decree was still a holy decree, and Chen Fei still got up to accept it.
"Yes!"
When the eunuch was about to leave, Chen Fei hurriedly sent him to drag the eunuch and stuffed a piece of silver cake at him without a trace.
"This father-in-law, I want to ask, what is the competition tomorrow? Can you tell us a little bit about that? ”
The eunuch cushioned the silver money in his hand, about ten taels, and immediately smiled, explained in detail to Chen Fei, and then left.
"It's strange, the competition between the descendants of the heroes? Isn't this just a group of rich second generations competing to eat, drink and have fun? What are you pulling me for? I am a great young man to build society! Chen Fei scratched his head and muttered, imagining how arrogant and outstanding he would be tomorrow
