'Duke of Longxi, the Governor of the Left Army; Dunhuang Gong, the right leader of the capital governor to open together'. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
In the big tent of the Chinese army, there are only two brothers, Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin, with a letter in front of them. Brothers, you look at me, I look at you, and neither of them is the first to speak. But there was a look of doubt on his face.
"Erlang, what do you think of Li Langjun's letter?"
Li Jiancheng didn't know what the relationship between Li Yanqing and his family was, so he frowned.
Li Shimin also doesn't know whether Li Jiancheng knows Li Yanqing's identity. This kind of thing is not easy to talk about, in case the father doesn't want them to know, and they do, it will definitely make Li Yuan unhappy. Externally, Li Shimin also showed that he did not know Li Yanqing's identity. Hearing Li Jiancheng ask, he thought for a while, "Brother, what do you think?" ”
"I heard that Li Langjun is deeply favored by the Yang family.
In the past two years, he has desperately defended the safety of Xingyang County and fought with Li Mi repeatedly. The man's intentions were not yet clear, and he suddenly asked us to stay in Michi until the twelfth. I am worried that he has an appointment with Wang Shichong, and Wang Shichong is suing for peace, while Li Yanqing quickly moves closer and blocks us at the foot of the Missing Gate...... I am afraid that his letter is to paralyze us, although he clearly said that he will not help Wang Shichong, but he must not be guarded against. ”
In the big tent, a tallow candle with the thickness of an arm suddenly burst out and was extinguished.
The light dimmed, but it just covered up the fleeting weird smile on Li Shimin's face. From Li Jiancheng's words, it can be heard that he does not know Li Yanqing's identity.
"Why did this candle go out all of a sudden...... Come on, ignite quickly! ”
Outside the door, the sergeant came in with a new candle, lit it, plugged it in, and bowed down.
Li Shimin shook his head and said, "In my opinion, it may not be!" Li Yanqing may be loyal to the Sui family, but he is not a pedantic person, and he will definitely not collude with Wang Shichong. In my early years, I had a friend of him and lived in Gong County for a while. This man is arrogant and at the same time scheming...... He would never do anything meaningless, and this time he took the liberty of sending a letter over, presumably with ulterior motives, but it would be harmless to us.
Brother must have forgotten that Duke Dou was kind to him back then.
Now Dou Gong is under his father's account, and speaking of which, his relationship with us is also very close. Otherwise, let's do what he says? ”
In fact, Li Jiancheng also saw Li Yanqing, but at that time, Li Yanqing was only six years old.
Maybe even Yanqing has lost his impression, so he can't talk about any friendship. On the contrary, it was Li Shimin, who lived in Gong County for a period of time, and had a lot of contacts with Li Yanqing. Today, Yan Qing is entrenched in Xingyang, holding soldiers and horses, and has become a force that heroes from all walks of life in the Central Plains dare not underestimate. And he ...... It turned out to be the son of Uncle Nine. In other words, Yanqing is actually a chess piece planted by the Li family in the Central Plains.
Once Guanzhong is calmed down and attacks the eastern capital, Li Yanqing will definitely come forward at a critical moment.
He was in Heluo, and his reputation was so great that Li Shimin felt jealous. But at the same time, Li Shimin hopes to befriend Li Yanqing and pull him to his side. Li Yuan is called the emperor, but it is only a matter of time or time. When the time comes, if Li Yanqing is willing to help himself, it will be of great benefit.
"You mean to promise him?"
"Why not?"
I stayed until the twelfth, and there were still eight days to go......
Li Shimin said with a smile: "Brother, in just eight days, even if Li Langjun colludes with Wang Shichong, can he defeat us?"
Wang Shichong did not dare to go to war, because to the east of Biling, there was still Li Mi eyeing him; Li Yanqing didn't dare to go to war, because Wang Shichong or Li Mi coveted Xingyang. Similarly, Li Mi did not dare to go to war, he was afraid that Li Wang and Wang would suddenly join forces.
These three parties check each other, so that we can take advantage of the void.
Now, our goal has been achieved, even if it is delayed until the twelfth day, it will not hurt the overall situation. It's better to stay and see what tricks Li Langjun is playing. It's not an opportunity for us. I think it's okay to drag it out until the twelveth. ”
Yes, there are three checks and balances, and no one dares to do it.
But even so, it is impossible for Guan Zhong to defeat Wang Shichong in one fell swoop.
Li Yuan agreed to send troops, and the deterrent significance was far greater than the actual intention of sending troops. With the current situation in Guanzhong, even if Li Yanqing sends troops to help, Luoyang will definitely not be able to break through in a short time. Once you get scorched, you will be in danger in Guanzhong. When Li Yanqing sent this letter, I am afraid that he also saw the mystery clearly.
To break the balance of Heluo, an opportunity is needed, and Guanzhong cannot become this opportunity.
Li Jiancheng thought for a long time, and finally nodded in agreement.
After some discussion, Li Shimin said goodbye and left, and returned to his camp.
In the tent, a group of people were waiting for his return.
Wang Tong Qin Qiong, Qin Yongcheng Biting Jin, and Li Shimin's generals Liu Hongji, Qiu Xinggong and others who were friends when he was in Taiyuan were all waiting for him.
Qin Qiong and the others got in touch with Li Tang after Li Shi's militia arrived in Michi.
They besieged Yiyang, and after transferring Wang Xuanying's troops and horses, they were ambushed by Li Shimin. Later, Li Jiancheng listened to Wei Zheng's idea, pretended to be a defeated soldier and mixed into the pond, attacked inside and outside, and defeated Wang Xuanying in one fell swoop. Li Shimin met with Qin Qiong and others in Yiyang, and took a few people into the account as he wished. It's just that he failed to receive Wei Zheng, and because Wei Zheng took the initiative to come, he was favored by Li Jiancheng.
When I think about it, I feel quite regretful.
However, in the case of Wei Zheng, he did not vote for Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin, but Li Yuan.
Li Jiancheng, as Li Yuan's eldest son, from the perspective of standing tall or young, Li Jiancheng represents Li Yuan's greater component. Therefore, Wei Zheng chose Li Jiancheng instead of Li Shimin. As for Qin Qiong and others, they fought side by side with Li Shimin and defeated Wang Xuanying's reinforcements together. admired Li Shimin's courage as a pioneer, so after the convergence, he did not hesitate to throw himself into Li Shimin.
"Grand Governor, when are we going to withdraw our troops?"
Liu Hongji stepped forward to ask.
This Liu Hongji is a native of Chiyang, and his father Liu Sheng served as the assassin of Hezhou during the Kaihuang period. Liu Hongji got his father's shadow and served as the right commander, when Yang Guangyi conquered Liaodong, he did not want the Sui army to fight, so he slaughtered cattle in his hometown, and was imprisoned and escaped the draft.
Later, he defected to Taiyuan and served under Li Yuan's account.
His surname was Ge Haoshuang, and he had a very close relationship with Li Shimin, so he was sent to Li Shimin's account.
And Qiu Xinggong, who has a similar surname to Liu Hongji, is also a son of an official eunuch. The difference is that Liu Hongji's father died during the Kaihuang period, while Qiu Xinggong's father is still there. His ancestral home is Luoyang, and his father, Qiu He, is now demoted to an official in Lingnan.
Li Shimin motioned for everyone to be casual, and then sat on the Taishi chair in the big tent.
Twisting his body twice, he suddenly smiled: "You say, how did this Li Langjun's head grow?" There are so many wonderful ideas?
This thing is magnificent to sit on, and it's also quite comfortable. ”
As soon as a discerning person heard it, he knew that things had changed, and it was related to Li Yanqing.
But there are not only smart people in this world, but also those foolish people who can't hear the mystery.
I saw a person standing up in his palm, and said loudly: "Dadu Governor, the last general is willing to lead a group of men and horses, take the head of Li Langjun, and dedicate it to Dadu Governor." ”
In one sentence, only to make everyone in the big tent dumbfounded.
Even Li Shimin was a little dazed...... In these years, are there really people who can't hear good words?
Looking at the voice, I saw a big man walking out.
This person's name is Qin Wutong, and he is also Li Shimin's confidant. This Qin Wutong has good martial arts and is brave and strong. In the event of a big war, he can keep a cool head, which is a rare character. It's just that his head is a little unbright, and when he doesn't fight, he has a bit of a stunned surname, and he often makes some jokes. But perhaps it is this reason that makes Li Shimin trust Qin Wutong quite a lot.
Li Shimin couldn't cry or laugh.
"Wutong, you step aside, when did I say that I want you to kill Li Langjun?"
"Didn't the Metropolitan Governor just say that he doesn't know how Li Langjun's head grows? Didn't you want me to wait for that Li Langjun's head? ”
"I ......"
Li Shimin was angry, "You get out of the way, Hugh is noisy." ”
"Oh!"
Qin Wutong retreated to the side, but the people in the tent laughed heartily. Even Qin Qiongcheng's faces softened a lot.
Li Yanqing, even we are not opponents, you came up and said that you wanted to take people's heads, did you say that we were incompetent?
But now it seems that this guy is a bastard.
"Shubao, you have fought with Li Langjun, can you know him?"
Qin Shubao and the others looked at each other, shook their heads and said, "Metropolitan Governor, although we have a confrontation with Li Langjun, to be honest, we are not qualified to come forward at all. This man is scheming and eloquent. When Heishi was closed, with the argument of the secret public, he was almost scolded by him to death.
All we know is that he has quite a lot of capable people under his command, and he is loyal to him.
If the Metropolitan Governor confronts Li Langjun in the future, please be careful. This person seems to have the ability to see through other people's minds, and when he fights with him, there will always be a feeling of being constrained. We've played him a few times, but we've never taken advantage of him......"
Regardless of whether it was Qin Qiong or Cheng Biting Jin, he was beaten extremely miserably by Li Yanqing.
Especially Qin Qiong, the Eight Winds Battalion was formed twice, once was disabled, and once lost troops. In their hearts, they don't have any ill feelings towards Li Yanqing. Everyone is their own master, and we can't say that we should do the same. So when it comes to evaluation, I have a lot of respect.
"So...... Let's go and rest.
We may have to stay here for a little longer, but not too long, and we must return to Guanzhong before the end of the year. ”
After sending off the generals, Li Shimin left Wang Tong behind.
He told Wang Tong about the conversation with Li Jiancheng.
"Sir, what do you mean by this Li Langjun?"
Wang Tong also thought for a long time, and finally shook his head with a wry smile and said: "I have had a dispute with Li Langjun, he is quick to think and is not an ordinary person. What exactly does he want to do in this situation? I really can't guess. But why should the Metropolitan Governor worry? Since he asked us to stay, we will delay it until the twelfth. At that time, it is estimated that it will be clear what he is doing, and we can just sit and watch from the sidelines. ”
Li Shimin nodded and said good!
"Sir, you said Li Langjun, will you help me?"
Wang Tong was stunned, and immediately heard Li Shimin's voice.
He thought for a moment and said softly: "If the Metropolitan Governor can get Li Langjun's help, it will definitely be like a tiger with wings, and no one will be able to compete with the Metropolitan Governor again." ”
"Hehe, I think so too."
However, Li Langjun's surname is arrogant, and it is difficult to intersect with him by ordinary means.
I look at this person, he has good wealth and takes it in a good way, and he is lustful and has not seen obscenity. The power is also difficult to move with him. Otherwise, he would not have resisted the decree and broke with the Zheng family because of Zheng Xing's incident. This person is very emotional, and if the governor wants to make friends with him, it is better to start here. ”
Li Shimin stood up, slowly walked out of the military tent, and looked up at the sky.
After a long time, he suddenly said, "Mr. Wang, it's going to snow!" ”
************
Heavy snow overnight stained the eastern capital white.
In the early morning, the smoke of the copper camel workshop curls, revealing a beautiful atmosphere in the morning light.
The twilight rain of the copper camel is a scene in Luoyang. However, this copper camel morning smoke is also unique. The gate of Pei's mansion opened, and I saw a middle-aged beautiful woman, surrounded by a group of generals, walking out of the mansion. The woman was pregnant, slightly bloated, and looked lazy......
A sedan chair with a green curtain carried by eight people stopped outside the gate of the house.
The woman slowly boarded the sedan chair, and with a sound of 'get up', a team of 100 people slowly marched through the snow.
"Mrs. Pei, where are you going?"
"Oh, I heard that she is going to visit the Buddha at the White Horse Temple today......"
"Do you want to report to the lord?"
At this time, the lord is afraid that he has not yet gotten up early, and it is difficult to escape the reprimand. Besides, the lord only asked us to stare at Mrs. Pei, she went to the White Horse Temple, and she didn't go out of the city, just follow her. ”
More than a dozen people walked out of the dark corner of the street and followed behind the sedan chair.
came to the White Horse Temple, and saw that Mrs. Pei and her party all entered the temple, and the fine workers did not follow in.
Pei Renji was ordered to go to Shilin Mountain to work in the army, but his family was closely monitored by Wang Shichong.
Wang Shichong ordered: Monitor the Pei family's every move, but do not disturb it.
After all, he is not ready to tear his face with Bae In-ki. And with the prestige of the Pei family, if Wang Shichong does too much, it will not be beneficial.
The spies waited outside the temple for a long time, from early morning until late afternoon.
It stands to reason that this visit to the Buddha is only half a day, but I don't see the Pei family come out.
"What's going on?"
"Let's go in and have a look!"
The spies hurriedly walked into the temple, and after inquiry, they learned that when they visited the Buddha at noon, Mrs. Pei suddenly felt unwell, so she asked for a quiet courtyard in the temple to rest.
"Would you like to go over and have a look?"
"Well...... the leader of the scouts hesitated, but finally made up his mind and nodded in agreement.
Anyway, just go over and take a look, and if there is no problem, it won't disturb the other party. So a group of people hurried to the small courtyard. In the distance, he saw that the gate of the courtyard was closed, but outside the gate of the courtyard, there was no one to be seen. Even the general who took care of the courtyard was nowhere to be seen.
Detectives, something is wrong!
"Big brother, why don't we go in?"
The leader muttered to himself: If people are resting inside, wouldn't it be a big trouble to break in? I believe that if this situation occurs, without Pei Renji's action, Wang Shichong will not be able to spare them. But this situation is indeed not normal. If Mrs. Pei is let go, there will also be a disaster of killing.
Hesitant to come, hesitant to go, the leader is undecided.
"Big brother, that courtyard can accommodate dozens of people at most, but the more than 100 people in the Pei family can't all be crowded in that courtyard."
That's right!
The leader shook the cicada, took three steps and made two steps, and rushed to the gate of the courtyard.
Bang bang, he knocked on the door, but there was silence inside. The bad omen in his heart grew stronger, and the leader could no longer keep his composure, and raised his feet to kick the door open. But the gate did not move. Looking through the crack in the door, there was a pile of objects behind the door.
"Over the wall, over the wall immediately!"
The leader also panicked and shouted loudly.
He was the first to climb over the wall and enter, and then he heard the tinkling of bells in the courtyard.
After a long time, the courtyard door was opened from the inside, and I saw the leader rushing out, with a hideous face, and the green tendons on his neck were dripping.
"Immediately reported to the lord, and the Pei family ran away...... Seal the White Horse Temple for me, arrest all those monks, and don't let any of them go! ”
