1029. Chapter 1029
Li Shimin handed over the matter of choosing the god of the door to Tang Zhou, which stumped Tang Zhou, the twenty-four heroes of Lingyan Pavilion, if he went to choose, these people were fuel-efficient lamps?
Originally, this god could just choose Qin Qiong and Wei Chigong directly. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
But Tang Zhou is not easy to say, if he immediately said that he would choose Qin Qiong and Wei Chigong, he would inevitably be suspected by Li Shimin, thinking that he was so good with Wei Chigong, Li Shimin was still a little jealous of Wei Chigong, and his daring to show himself in this matter was too obvious.
But you have to choose it, and in the end, it's the two of them, so will Cheng Yanjin and Li Jing agree?
Li Shimin gave Tang Zhou a big problem, the list that had been determined a long time ago had to be performed.
Tang Zhou had no choice but to respond.
When he left the palace, the snow was still falling, Tang Zhou sighed lightly, and then shook his head.
After returning to the house, Tang Zhou told Princess Danyang about the situation, how to choose this god, he wanted to hear Princess Danyang's opinion.
After Princess Danyang learned that her royal brother often had nightmares, she was also a little worried, and when she heard Tang Zhou say that it would be good to choose two door gods to appease her, he was a little relieved.
"There are so many generals in the Tang Dynasty, and there are many who are loyal to my imperial brother, you can just choose two."
Tang Zhou smiled bitterly: "Her Royal Highness the princess has always been smart, how could she say such a thing today, if only you could choose casually, I will choose at will, will the others agree?" ā
"This ......" Princess Danyang pondered for a moment and asked, "Then who do you want to choose?" ā
Tang Zhou said: "Qin Qiong, Qin Shubao, and Wei Chi Gong Wei Chi Jingde." ā
Hearing that Tang Zhou was going to choose these two people, Princess Danyang was a little puzzled and asked, "Why did you choose the two of them?" ā
"One is deterred, one is appeased, or one sings blackface, one sings whiteface."
Princess Danyang still didn't understand, and said, "You can be more specific." ā
Tang Zhou said: "In the change of Xuanwu Gate back then, the person with the highest meritorious service was none other than Wei Chi Gong, and it was also Emperor Gaozu who he carried his head to find back then, so this Wei Chi Gong could play a deterrent role, making Li Jiancheng's soul afraid, and then making the saint feel at ease." ā
"What about this Uncle Qin?"
"The main thing is to appease, Qin Shubao can be said to have made great contributions in the early years of my Tang Dynasty, Cheng Yanjin and others also admired him very much, but he did not participate in the Xuanwumen Change, so that it can play a role in appeasing, so that he can persuade Li Jiancheng to be dead, with these two people, the saint is at ease, and naturally he will not have nightmares."
After listening to Tang Zhou's explanation, Princess Danyang felt that it made sense, and said, "Since you already have a candidate, the next thing to do is how to make everyone else agree to this choice, right?" ā
Tang Zhou nodded: "Yes, but with my understanding of these generals of the Tang Dynasty, Qin Shubao was highly respected and ancient, and there will not be many people who oppose it, but I am afraid that there will be a lot of opposition voices from Wei Chigong." ā
Tang Zhou didn't explain, but Princess Danyang knew that Yu Chigong was just a member of the Tang Dynasty, and among the generals, in addition to the more amazing force, he was not as good as Li Jing, Li Ji and others in the use of the art of war formation.
Moreover, it is impossible for a person like Cheng Yanjin to make meritorious contributions and stand by with such a good deed that has been famous for eternity, so these people will make a fuss.
"Then what are you going to do, little marquis?"
Tang Zhou smiled bitterly: "I told Her Royal Highness the princess this, just to hear if Her Royal Highness the princess has any good suggestions." ā
Princess Danyang thought for a while and said, "It's better to release the news first and see how these people react before making plans, what do you think?" ā
Tang Zhou pondered and said, "Now it can only be like this. ā
-------------------------------
The news that Tang Zhou was going to choose the door god quickly spread in the homes of the twenty-four heroes, except for Gao Shilian, Hou Junji and others who had committed crimes, there was no chance at all, and their status had not been very obvious, and they had only heard it after hearing it, and they didn't have much extravagance.
But like Li Jing, Li Ji, Cheng Yanjin, and Wei Chigong, these people are all full of energy, and some civil servants such as the eldest grandson Wuji and others also want to compete, although there is news that they are only selected from among the generals.
And after the news spread, these people began to run towards the Tang family manor one after another.
In the afternoon of the same day, Cheng Yanjin came.
"Tang family boy, you come out ......" Cheng Yanjin began to shout as soon as he entered the Tang family's manor, and after Tang Zhou came out, he hurriedly smiled: "Oh, Lu Guogong is here, please come in, please come in." ā
Cheng Biting Jin waved his sleeves and asked as he walked: "Tang family boy, I heard that the saint is going to choose the door god, what do you think of the old man?" ā
"Lu Guogong is handsome and martial, and he is really my Tang Dynasty general."
"Don't be poor, just say that you don't choose me, I know that the Holy One has entrusted this matter to you."
Tang Zhou's face was embarrassed, and said: "Although the junior is responsible, it is not clear how to choose, if you want me to express my position, I can't express my attitude." ā
Seeing this, Cheng Yanjin suddenly lowered his voice and said, "Tang family boy, if you do this, Uncle Cheng, I will definitely not be able to treat you badly." ā
The corners of Tang Zhou's mouth twitched slightly, he didn't believe Cheng Biting Jin's verbal promises, he helped him do it, and in the end, if he didn't admit anything, then he couldn't do anything about him.
Seeing that Tang Zhou didn't have the reaction he wanted, Cheng Yanjin said again: "Recently, I bought two new dancing girls in my house, and I will give them to you if you like them." ā
Tang Zhou smiled bitterly: "Lu Guogong, the younger generation doesn't like dancing girls." ā
"And what do you like?"
"Lu Guogong, I can't be the master of this matter for the time being, you might as well go home and wait first, and then I will inform you when there is news, how about it?"
Cheng Yanjin was a little impatient, and suddenly slapped the table, and said, "You can't be the master of this little thing, didn't the Holy One put you in charge of this matter?" Is it so hard to choose me as the door god? ā
Cheng bit King Kong and got angry, and suddenly a voice came from outside: "What made Lu Guogong angry like this?" ā
The voice fell, Princess Danyang had already walked in, Tang Zhou didn't dare to make trouble with Cheng Biting Jin, but Princess Danyang dared, she still didn't believe how Cheng Biting Jin dared, as soon as Princess Danyang came in, Cheng Biting Jin's attitude immediately changed.
"Your Highness the Princess."
"Lu Guogong was angry just now?"
"No, I'm not angry, I'm just playing with Tang Zhou......"
Cheng Yanjin's age is not young, but he didn't feel embarrassed at all when he said this, but Tang Zhou was a little panicked for him, and couldn't help pouting.
When Princess Danyang heard this, she smiled again: "It's good if you're not angry, it's the Chinese New Year now, how sad and angry it is, our two families have a close relationship, and we have a lot of business contacts, so we still have to move around more." ā
Cheng Biting Jin is not stupid, he can still hear Princess Danyang's half-encirclement and half-threatening words, if he makes trouble, the two of them have a cooperative business, I'm afraid it will be difficult to continue to do it, he could coerce Tang Zhou before, but now with Princess Danyang's support, can he coerce it?
