Chapter 077: The Butterfly Effect

Two days later, Li Zaixing was on duty.

Li Zaixing's official position is to hold a halberd, but he is not a guard standing guard with a halberd, but an officer in charge of these guards, similar to a squad leader or something. The halberd is known as the four-color officer along with the divisional rank, the middle candidate, and the sige, and is a junior officer who is specifically responsible for the guards on duty.

When he arrived at the station, Li Zaixing didn't see the general Chen Xuanli, but only saw the Yunlu general Liu Gan. Liu Gan is nearly seventy years old, and his body is still very strong, and it seems that he will not have to retire after a few years. He is the old man of the Long Wu Army, and he served in the Yulin Army long before helping the Son of Heaven eradicate Princess Taiping, and has assisted several commanders.

Seeing Li Zaixing, Liu Gan's gray eyebrows were raised, and he said in a stern tone: "Where do you live now?" ”

Li Zaixing bowed and saluted: "General, my subordinates live in Bodhi Temple." ”

"Since you have joined my Longwu Army, you should live in the barracks, how can you borrow it casually?" Liu Gan waved his hand: "Go back, bring the luggage first." My Longwu Army is the forbidden army of the Son of Heaven and has its own rules. In the future, when entering and leaving, you must obey orders, and you must not act arbitrarily. ”

When Li Zaixing heard it, he immediately felt that the voice was wrong. He secretly thought to himself, he had nothing to do with Liu Gan, how could he offend this Yunlu general? According to the rules, the people of the Long Wu Army should indeed live in the barracks, but the rules are dead, people are alive, and the officers of the Long Wu Army live in their own homes when they are not on duty, even if there are a few outsiders whose homes are not in Chang'an, they will rent a house outside, and few live in the barracks.

Liu Gan was clearly embarrassed by him.

Li Zaixing was puzzled, and he didn't ask more, he turned around and went to Bing Cao to check the schedule when he was on duty. Bai Ze, who joined the army, was busy in front of the case, and when he saw Li Zaixing coming in, he smiled and said, "Is it a mistake?" ”

Li Zaixing's heart moved, and while handing over the prepared bottle of Sanle pulp, he said with a smile: "No, I was taught a lesson by General Yunlu when I first came, and I was really at a loss." ”

Bai Ze took the three pulp, but he didn't shirk it, and hid it easily. "I said why is this old man so serious today, he came to the house early in the morning to wait, it turned out that he was in a bad mood and was looking for someone to vent his anger."

Li Zaixing listened to it and said quietly: "General Liu is a close minister trusted by the Son of Heaven, he is highly respected, and his children and grandchildren are full, how can he be in a bad mood?" ”

"Hehe, it's not because I want to eat for the concubine." Bai Ze glanced around, gave Li Zaixing a look, and then laughed softly: "Now that the brothers and sisters of the Yang family are powerful, even the prince and princess have to wait carefully, how can General Liu be an exception?" He has served His Majesty all his life, and in the end, he has to bow his head to a few descendants, how good can his mood be? ”

Li Zaixing suddenly realized and glanced at Bai Ze gratefully. These words seem to be small talk, but they are not. It is not by chance that Liu Gan is here today, he is likely to have come to wait for him. The reason may be because he escaped death and has something to do with the concubine, or maybe because he has been closer to the Yang family recently. In a few days, he went to Anyi Fang twice, and yesterday he also went to Mrs. Qiuguo's mansion, which fell in the eyes of those who care, and it was inevitable that he would be regarded as flattering the brothers and sisters of the Yang family. Liu Gan didn't dare to take advantage of the Yang family's brothers and sisters, and he was angry with a small officer with no background, which was not a matter of words.

Li Zaixing had also encountered such a thing in his previous life, and later he had a fight with the commander and was sent to the most remote outpost, where he stayed for a few years. It's ridiculous to encounter this kind of again.

Li Zaixing decided to deal with it coldly, if Liu Gan was addicted, then forget it. If Liu Gan continues to embarrass him, then simply resign. He didn't want to do anything about it. The purpose of his coming to Chang'an was not this.

Seeing Li Zaixing's casual look, Bai Ze frowned, and said seemingly casually: "Actually, General Liu doesn't need to be angry at all, in a few years, the Yang family will not be able to come up." ”

Li Zaixing didn't take it seriously at first, so he turned around and went out with a smile. Walking outside the door, as soon as the wind blew, he suddenly realized that Bai Ze's sentence sounded like gossip, but in fact it meant something else. Why is it said that in a few years, the Yang family will not be able to come up? Liu Gan is almost seventy years old, and if he sleeps today, he may not be able to see the sunrise tomorrow, even if the Yang family can't get up, he may not be able to wait. The focus of Bai Ze's sentence is not Liu Gan, but the Yang family.

His steps faltered, and he turned his head to look at Bai Ze in the room, and was meeting Bai Ze's meaningful smile. The corners of his mouth twitched, and he gave a knowing look. Bai Ze breathed a sigh of relief, lowered his head casually, and went to his own place.

Li Zaixing continued to walk forward, but his mood was different at the moment. Because he thought of one thing, during the Anshi Rebellion, Tang Xuanzong fled to Bashu, and in Maweipo, the soldiers of the forbidden army mutinied, killed Yang Guozhong, who is still called Yang Zhao, and forced Tang Xuanzong to hang Yang Guifei to death, and the one who took the lead at that time was Chen Xuanli, the general of Longwu.

Could it be ...... The resentment between Long Wujun and the Yang family siblings began here?

Freezing three feet, not a day's cold, Chen Xuanli dared to do such a thing, of course, it could not be a spur of the moment, perhaps, now the arrogance of the Yang family brothers and sisters has planted the seeds. Maybe the entire forbidden army doesn't have a good impression of the Yang family, Liu Gan is just one of the representatives, he was beaten by Liu Gan, and he was shot purely while lying down.

Li Zaixing was relieved, but then felt sad for Yang Guifei. The brothers and sisters of the Yang family are indeed arrogant, but the arrogant relatives are not their family. Now that she is still rightfully favored, there are people in the forbidden army who dare to say this, so they are not afraid of her retaliation?

The reason is actually very simple, because she failed to give birth to a prince.

Without the prince, it would be impossible for her to change from a noble concubine to the queen mother and continue to be in power. As Bai Ze said, the scenery of the Yang family is destined to only be a few years, and as soon as the Son of Heaven dies, everything about them will disappear. If she can give birth to a son and may become the next emperor, will Liu Gan still dare?

Li Zaixing sighed with emotion and went to the post on duty. Bai Ze said that the original reason for the newly appointed people to be on duty next to the prince was that the prince was generous and would not care too much about occasional mistakes. But now Li Zaixing doesn't think so anymore, do you know that this is not Chen Xuanli and others showing favor to the prince? He now suspects that Li Mi suggested that he join the Longwu Army, and he also promised to explain to Xie Guanglong that it should be related to Chen Xuanli or any general, otherwise he would not be so sure.

Thinking about it, the water was muddier than he had imagined.

"Who's on duty today?" A young eunuch walked out, stood under the porch, and asked in a shrill voice.

Li Zaixing hurriedly walked up and reported his official name.

"Come in, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has something to order."

Li Zaixing's eyebrows moved, his heart would not be so coincidental. However, he still followed the eunuch in, untied the horizontal knife at his waist at the door, and tidied up his clothes, and then walked in small steps, stopped not far from the door, and saluted the prince standing in the house.

"You are Li Zaixing?" The prince smiled gently, walked up to Li Zaixing, and looked Li Zaixing up and down: "Yes, he is a majestic man." ”

"The prince is falsely praised, and the ministers dare not be ashamed."

"Well, I have something to ask you." The prince waved his hand, his attitude was very easy-going, not like a high-ranking prince, but a bit like a gentle and jade-like Wang Xun. "I have studied the affairs of Tibet for a long time, but I still know very little. Can you tell me about it? He paused, and then explained, "In two days, Your Majesty will inquire about it, and I will make some preparations in advance." ”

"It is an honor to serve the prince."

The prince smiled and turned to the desk. Li Zaixing followed, and as soon as he looked at the map on the case, he felt that there were a few more black lines in his head. What kind of map is this? Is there a slight similarity? If it weren't for the fact that the terrain of the Tang Dynasty was relatively prepared, he wouldn't be sure that area was the Tubo in the mouth of the prince.

"This is a map I drew based on an old book, and there may be some inaccuracies......"

Li Zaixing smiled bitterly: "Prince, it's not inaccurate, it's a big mistake." ”

"Presumptuous!" The young eunuch standing on the side lowered his face and shouted sharply. The prince interrupted him, and the smile on his face did not change at all, but there was some excitement. "That's great, you can help me change it. If you find out in front of Your Majesty, then it's too late. ”

Li Zaixing also knew that he was speechless, and hurriedly said: "Actually, although the prince's map is not very accurate, the general route is good, but there will be some misunderstandings in understanding the situation." In the future, when making decisions, you may also make misjudgments. ”

The prince nodded, convinced. He led Li Zaixing to the front of the case and said to the young eunuch: "Prepare pen and ink and make a record." You must conscientiously write down every sentence Li Langjun said today. ”

"Whoa." Seeing this, the young eunuch didn't dare to be careless, and his eyes when he looked at Li Zaixing suddenly became much more friendly.

……

Li Zaixing talked about it for an hour, and gave a more comprehensive introduction to the prince about the general situation of Tibet. He knew that although the crown prince in front of him was more embarrassed now, in history, he did succeed to the throne later. He presided over the counterinsurgency work of the Anshi Rebellion. If it weren't for his parting ways with Tang Xuanzong in Ma Weipo, the history of the Tang Dynasty might have come to an end.

It can be said that don't look at this prince who speaks very kindly, in fact, he is still responsible, at least better than Tang Xuanzong patting his ass and fleeing to Bashu. For this reason, Li Zaixing's impression of the prince is not bad, so he is also very attentive. It's not often that I have the opportunity to give a lesson to a future monarch. If through his efforts, the future emperor of the Tang Dynasty can have an accurate understanding of the situation in the world, perhaps it can have a positive impact on history.

In an era of imperial supremacy, what could have had a more direct impact on history than influencing the supreme authority?

Perhaps, the change of history began here, and he was the butterfly that set off the storm of history.

For a while, Li Zaixing suddenly had a sense of mission with a heavy responsibility on his shoulders
