Chapter 120: Twelve Years of Great Cause
Because it was Chinese New Year's Eve, everyone was not so particular, and they all walked around casually after eating.
Liu Wenjing came to Li Yin with a wine jug, and said in a low voice: "After the emperor Yanmen was besieged, the Sui Dynasty was not far away, does your father have the heart to win the championship?" ”
Liu Wenjing came to inquire about Li Yin on behalf of Pei Lin and other Taiyuan officials.
Li Yin looked around, "My father should have that will, but I'm afraid the current will is not very strong, after I return to Yanmen County, you have to communicate with him more." ”
Liu Wenjing was quite satisfied with Li Yin's answer, as long as Li Yuan really had other intentions, he was afraid that Li Yuan was a loyal minister of the Sui family, and as for his will, he Liu Wenjing had a way to persuade him.
Subsequently, Li Yin had a private conversation with Pei Yin, Liu Zhenghui and others, Liu Zhenghui was okay and polite to him, but Pei Yin didn't seem to be very willing to talk more about Li Yin, and left without saying a few words.
Li Jiancheng came to Li Yin's side at this time, "I will return to Anyi County, Hedong County after Chinese New Year's Eve, continue to guard the tomb for my mother, and my father and Shimin are in Taiyuan County, so I will be more under your care." ”
Li Yuan's wife, Dou Shi, died two years ago, when Yang Guanger conquered Liaodong, Li Yuan was first in Huaiyuan Town to supervise grain, Dou also accompanied Li Yuan to take care of his life, and then occasionally felt cold, so he couldn't afford to be sick, and soon after Li Yuan was transferred to Honghua County Taishou, Dou died of his death.
When Li Yin knew about this, he was already the general of Yanmen County, and he didn't sigh about it. Because of what happened to his mother Xie, he originally had a grudge against the Dou family, but since she is dead, let all the grievances go with it!
After listening to Li Jiancheng's words, Li Yin nodded and said, "Big brother, don't worry, I am near Yanmen, and I will take good care of them." ”
At this time, the relationship between the Li brothers is basically quite harmonious, but I don't know how long this kind of warmth can continue to be maintained.
When Li Jiancheng was about to leave, Li Yin suddenly stopped him, and pretended to be casual: "Big brother, where is the third sister now?" It seems like there's been no news of her for a long time. ”
Li Jiancheng said: "The third sister has been staying in Guanzhong for the past two years, and it seems that she often finds someone to compete in martial arts, and she has also made a lot of names." It's just that somehow, the family won't be at home, and her father can't find a good family for her. ”
After Li Yin heard this, he nodded lightly, his eyes looked into the distance, and he didn't know what he was thinking, and only after Li Jiancheng walked away did he let out a long sigh......
In the lively jubilation of everyone in the Taishou Mansion, time unconsciously came to the twelfth year of the great cause of the Sui Dynasty (616 AD), which was destined to be an unusual year.
On the fifth day of the first lunar month, Li Yin planned to leave Taiyuan and return to Yanmen Pass, but Li Yuan called him to the study at this time.
As soon as he walked into the study, Li Yuan gave Li Yin a picture of a lady, Li Yin glanced at the picture of a lady, and immediately recognized the woman in the painting.
The woman in the picture of the lady is the sister of the eldest grandson Wuji, Guanyin.
Li Yuan said: "You are now twenty-two years old, it's time to marry a wife and start a family, the woman in the painting is the daughter of the famous general Sun Sheng, knowledgeable, fifteen years old, is a rare good match, her mother sent someone to confide in me a few days ago the idea of recruiting you as a son-in-law, what do you think?" ”
Li Yin was greatly surprised by the news, and it took a while to come back to his senses.
Guanyin was originally in history, when she was thirteen years old, when her uncle Gao Shilian went to Jiaozhi County to take office, she presided over the marriage of Li Shimin as his wife, but now she is fifteen years old, and she still has not married, Li Yin knows that this seems to be indeed caused by his influence.
"Is it because I saved her twice?" Li Yin felt a little confused about this.
Guanyin, as a woman who is famous in history for her virtuous and gentle, it must be a blessing from her previous life that a man can marry her, but Li Yin doesn't have much affection for her!
Li Yin can be decisive in most things, without dragging his feet, but only in the emotions of men and women, a little bit of a man can't get up, after all, no one is perfect, this aspect is indeed Li Yin's weakness......
There was a light snow in the sky, and the two hundred cavalry led by Li Yin personally escorted the two carriages to the north to return to Yanmen, and the extra carriage was occupied by the eldest grandson Wuji, Guanyin and their mother Gao.
Li Yin faced Li Yuan's inquiry that day, although he did not agree, he did not refuse, but sent an invitation to the eldest grandson Wuji's family, asking them to go to Yanmen Pass with him, and the eldest grandson Wuji's family also readily agreed.
Guanyin, who had fallen out of the fairy-like manner, lifted the curtain of the carriage from time to time, opened her bright eyes, and looked out excitedly.
Gao's face was unhappy, "How good is that guy Li Shimin, why don't you look down on this girl?" ”
In the past two years, the Gao family has persuaded his daughter, but Guanyin was unmoved, and wanted to marry Li Yin, so he had no choice but to send someone to Li Yuan to send a portrait of Guanyin, and revealed some thoughts a little, but he didn't expect this Li Yin to agree.
However, Gao thought about it later, it is okay now, at least he can observe Li Yin more and see what kind of person he is, whether it is worth entrusting his daughter's lifelong affairs, and the eldest grandson Wuji also thinks the same about this.
Guanyin didn't think much about it, she felt very happy to be able to stay with Li Yin, so she was very happy and excited all the way.
When he came to the vicinity of Yanmen Pass, the eldest grandson Wuji, who was riding a horse, saw that the east and west mountains in front of him were steep and rocky, and the middle road was swirling and rugged, and it was really a dangerous place, no wonder that not long ago, the Sui army was able to resist the Turkic army of more than 400,000 people with only tens of thousands of people here.
Li Yin rode to the eldest grandson Wuji's side, "Auxiliary, do you know the origin of the name of this Yanmen Pass?" ”
Seeing that the eldest grandson Wuji shook his head, Li Yin said: "This is because the wild geese travel south and return to the north, and it is difficult to fly over the surrounding peaks. ”
The eldest grandson Wuji said: "There are many wonders in Saibei, this trip to Yanmen, I should be worth the trip." ”
When the Turks attacked Yanmen County last year, everyone was moved away by Li Yin in advance, and after the Turks and Yang Guang left, they were relocated by Li Yin, so at this time there were many pedestrians on the road, and the pedestrians stopped cheering and saluting after seeing Li Yin from afar, which shows that Li Yin's prestige in this place is beyond the reach of others.
The reason why Li Yin can get the support of the people is only because he can let people protect the people and fill their stomachs.
