Chapter 240 The first master of the Li family
Wan He and the others looked up, but they were a little surprised, from the words of the comer, it was certain that the other party had a very high status in the Taiyuan army, but it was not Li Yuan himself! I saw that the person who came was wearing a set of black armor, riding a tall horse, with a burly figure, and under the helmet, he showed a face about thirty or forty years old, but he was somewhat similar to that Li Xiaogong.
Looking at this man's appearance, Wan He guessed in his heart that this person must also be from the Li family, and his status in the Li family is also very high, otherwise, he would never dare to reprimand the Taiyuan army like this. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info and Wan He was thinking in his heart, the man had already said a few words to those Taiyuan soldiers, and turned the horse's head and walked towards this side.
Seeing that this man was coming, Li Jing and Pei Xingyan immediately protected Wan He, for fear that this person would be unfavorable to Wan He. However, Wan He narrowed his eyes, smiled and waved his hand to Li Jing and Pei Xingyan, signaling them to get out of the way, and then actually rode forward, saluted the man, and said, "Under Wan He!" Dare to ask this general's name? ”
When Wan He reported his name, the man's body was immediately shocked, and at the same time, a pair of tiger eyes also flashed a fine light, but soon, he turned over and dismounted, bowed to Wan He, and shouted: "The last general Li Shentong!" See Wan Hou Ye! ”
"Li Shentong?" Wan He and Li Jing's eyes suddenly lit up, and their faces were shocked, Li Jing had already heard of Li Shentong's name, this person was Li Yuan's cousin, and he had been worshipping a famous teacher since he was a child, and he had learned good marksmanship! It is rumored to be the number one master of the Li family! A few years ago, I heard that Li Shentong had been appointed as the captain of Chang'an City, commanding the soldiers and horses of Chang'an, and he could be said to be one of the most powerful figures in the Li family! And now Li Shentong did not stay in Chang'an, but ran to Taiyuan! There must be something unspeakable in this!
And the surprise in Wan He's heart was far greater than Li Jing's! Because of the name of Li Shentong, Wan He had heard of it in later generations, of course, it was not seen from any history books, but it was interpreted in TV and movies! Although Li Shentong in the TV movie is just a tricky character, Wan He, who has been in this era for so long, will not despise any person who can leave a name in history!
But fortunately, Wan He has seen a lot of big people in this era, so this surprise only lasted for a short time, Wan He had already recovered his normal color, got off the horse with a smile, walked quickly to Li Shentong, helped Li Shentong up, and said with a smile: "It turned out to be General Li!" Wan has heard General Li's name for a long time, and it is like thunder! It is really a privilege to see General Li today! ”
A trace of doubt flashed in Li Shentong's eyes, of course he knew who Wan He was, and he even knew that Wan He killed his nephew Li Xuanba! For Wan He, Li Shentong also hated him to the core! But Li Shentong is not Li Xiaogong, he has already passed that young and frizzy age, he knows very well that this time Wan He came to Taiyuan with the identity of the imperial driving pioneer, if he is rude to Wan He, it is tantamount to bullying the king! That's a big sin for the Nine Clans! Compared with the lives of thousands of people in the Li family, Li Shentong naturally knows the trade-offs! And not only Li Shentong, but even Li Yuan, who has the pain of losing his son, has repeatedly ordered that he must not provoke disputes head-on!
But just now, Li Yuan learned that Li Xiaogong actually ran with thousands of people to Wanhe to take revenge! This frightened Li Yuan, and hurriedly found Li Shentong, Li Xiaogong's martial arts, all of which were taught by Li Shentong, thinking that Li Shentong had spoken, Li Xiaogong didn't dare to disobey! But who knows, Li Shentong finally came a step too late, and just learned from those soldiers that Li Xiaogong had already fought with the other party, but was even captured by the other party! Now Li Shentong also knows that Li Xiaogong is in a big disaster! In desperation, Li Shentong could only give up his son and come to ask for Li Xiaogong!
It's just that what surprised Li Shentong was that when I heard people talk about this Wanhe before, most of them talked about how this Wanhe was pampered and coquettish, and was domineering, only Li Yuan's second son Li Shimin talked a little about Wanhe's some city government. So in Li Shentong's impression, Wan He should be the kind of gentleman character who can't be reasoned with, Li Shentong came this time, he was ready to be humiliated, but he didn't expect that Wan He was full of spring breeze and approachable, which was completely different from the situation Li Shentong expected.
However, Li Shentong didn't have time to think about it, he just said to Wan He: "Master Hou's trip is to open the way on behalf of the saint to inspect!" The last general went home to visit his relatives this time, but he didn't expect to be able to meet Master Hou, which was the honor of the last general! "Li Shentong is also smart, knowing that as the captain of Chang'an City, if he does not have a suitable reason to appear in Taiyuan, it is called desertion! Li Shentong didn't want to send a big handle to Wan He as soon as they met, so he pointed it out in his words.
Wan He didn't seem to understand the intention of Li Shentong's words, he just smiled, nodded and said to Li Shentong: "General Li is polite!" General Lee is gracious! Yes! That's right! I don't know if Lord Tang Guogong is in Taiyuan? Hehe! General Li may not know that he had some misunderstandings with Guogong before, and this time he also wants to explain to Guogong well! Everyone is loyal to the Holy One, and the Holy One will not want any unnecessary contradictions and misunderstandings between us courtiers! ”
Misunderstand? Can the revenge of killing a child be called a misunderstanding? Li Shentong snorted coldly in his heart, but on the surface, he said with a smile: "Master Hou is really too polite!" When my brother learned that Hou Ye was coming, he was ready to welcome him, and now he is preparing to welcome Hou Ye at the Taiyuan City Gate! Uh, that's right! Previously, my brother had already sent my little nephew Xiaogong to greet Master Hou! Didn't Hou Ye see his little nephew? ”
Li Shentong can be regarded as talking nonsense with his eyes open, then Li Xiaogong is clearly here to take revenge, but he said that he is here to greet Wanhe! Wan He almost laughed when he heard it! Mommy's, which one greets guests and shouts and kills as soon as they come up? This Li Shentong said this, he is not sorry! Seeing Li Shentong pretending to be stupid like this, Wan He simply said with a puzzled face: "Ah! Have it? Don't you see it below? Brother Li! Brother Li! Who did you just see coming? ”
Li Jing, who was behind Wan He, also shook his head seriously and said, "This, I really haven't seen it!" Maybe I missed it on the way! ”
Li Shentong was also so angry that he almost jumped to his feet, these thousands of Taiyuan Army soldiers were just here to watch them arrest Li Xiaogong, this Wanhe still has to deny it? However, Li Shentong didn't dare to be angry at Wan He, seeing Wan He not admit it like this, he had nothing to do for a while, so he could only bow his head and say: "I think I should have missed it!" However, if Hou Ye's subordinates meet the little nephew below, please tell him and let him come back quickly! My brother has high hopes for him, and there are still many things he needs to do! Li Shentong also knew that it would be useless to argue like this, so he simply pointed out that Li Yuan valued Li Xiaogong very much, and asked Wanhe not to hurt Li Xiaogong.
Wan He nodded quickly when he heard it, and said with a smile: "That's nature!" That's nature! If you meet that Li Gongzi in the next place, you will definitely tell the general's words, and please rest assured that the general is it! ”
Li Shentong glanced at Wan He, who had a sincere face, and he didn't know if he understood the subconscious meaning of his words just now. Looking at the more than 10,000 Imperial Forest Army behind Wan He, Li Shen informed that even if he did it himself, he was afraid that he would not be able to please him, so he simply suppressed the anger in his heart and waited for the time to meet Li Yuan. Immediately, Li Shentong made a gesture of invitation to Wan He sideways and said, "Master Hou! My brother has been waiting for a long time! And Hou Ye has worked hard all the way, so it is better to invite Hou Ye to Taiyuan to rest! ”
"Huh! It's not hard! It's not hard! Wan He waved his hand, smiled and said a few words, but his legs were always fixed in place, and he didn't mean to raise his legs and leave at all, looking at Li Shentong in front of him, Wan He had a bright smile on his face and said: "This, General Li, Tang Guogong is enthusiastic, and he knows it below!" But you should also know that since the Eastern Expedition to Goguryeo, there have been a lot of enemies, and people want my life every day! There are many people in Taiyuan City, if there are a few assassins in ambush, wouldn't it be in vain to lose their lives? I'm a timid person, so I won't go into this Taiyuan City, it's better to camp outside the city, it's more appropriate! ”
"Ugh!" As soon as he heard Wan He's words, Li Shentong's heart jumped, and he secretly screamed that it was not good! Of course, Wan He would not refuse to enter the city for the reason he said, if this is the case, the inside of the city will naturally be much safer than the outside! The meaning of Wan He's words was clearly implying that Li Yuan had the intention of harming him, so he didn't dare to enter the city! Although Li Shentong also knew that Li Yuan would never let Wan He go like this, he just said it in his heart, and he would never dare to implement it at this time! Besides, when the Son of Today has always been worried about the Li family, if this word reaches the ears of the Son of Heaven, he may not know what kind of punishment it will incur! So Li Shentong immediately sneered and said: "This, please rest assured!" For the sake of Hou Ye's safety, my brother has already organized defense measures in the city to ensure that no assassins will come to disturb Hou Ye! ”
"Oops!" Wan He clapped his hands and said with a smile: "This Tang Guogong is really too polite!" However, this time, the Holy God ordered me to serve as the pioneer of the royal car, just hoping to be able to do things well and not make any mistakes! Now that our army has arrived in Taiyuan, if we enter the city, I am afraid that we will be suspected of disturbing the people, alas! In fact, it's just passing through Taiyuan, staying for one night and leaving, so why care about those details, there is no difference between inside and outside the city! ”
