Chapter 319 has good news

Li Xian glanced at Hou Junji, squinted his eyes, and didn't seem to feel anything because of Hou Junji's stubborn insistence, his face did not change at all, if there was, it was not admiration and appreciation, but a little bit of banter that was not deliberately hidden.

"If you don't have the skills, what if you see me?"

Li Xian smiled.

"If you think of this way to see me, but you don't have the ability to impress me after all, wouldn't these ten army sticks be wronged? Isn't this a lot of money? ”

"In any case, I am half the success when I meet the general, and as for the other half, I am sure that I will definitely make you think that I am not a philistine, General. I followed the general's orders and walked here from the barracks by myself step by step, so much blood could not be shed in vain, and I had this confidence. ”

"Coming here?"

Li Xian smiled, his eyes were a little cold: "You say it again, I'll see if you have the courage." ”

His eyes swept over Hou Junji's throat as if he were nothing, this glance looked very light, but Hou Junji was so frightened by this glance that he took a step back, his body trembled slightly, and he didn't have time to hide it. Li Xian's glance, in Hou Junji's eyes, was like a cold blade out of the sheath, and only a trace of it was cut on his throat. Hou Junji had no doubt that if he said the wrong word, the knife would be cut cold and ruthless.

"I ......"

Hou Junji swallowed a mouthful, took a breath and said: "I used thirty pieces of meat, and I asked two soldiers from the same battalion to carry me a hundred steps outside the martial arts academy, and then walked over by myself." ”

"You're a little clever indeed."

Li Xian shook his head slowly, and suddenly said sharply: "Niu Jinda!" ”

Niu Jinda hurriedly stood up and hugged his fists and said, "The subordinates are here!" ”

"Investigate, who put this man here, scolding him for thirty strokes and driving him out of the barracks! My order is to let Hou Junji come over by himself, thirty good meat can make them disobey my military order, what is the use of keeping such soldiers? ”

"Whoa!"

Niu Jinda bowed in response, strode out, and glared at him fiercely when he passed by Hou Junji's side, this glance looked sharp and cold, but Hou Junji did not have too deep fear of this kind of look, but it was Li Xian's previous eyes that made him uncomfortable.

"Three words to you, to impress me."

Li Xian glanced at Hou Junji lightly and said softly: "If you can't impress me, your fate will be the same as the two soldiers who brought you here, you will be punished with a cane for thirty and driven out of the barracks." ”

"General! I just made an unintentional mistake, and I hope that the general will give his subordinates a chance. ”

Hou Junji's face changed and then pleaded.

"Two more sentences."

Li Xian shook his fingers, then picked up the wine glass and took a sip.

"I can help the general achieve great things!"

Hou Junji gritted his teeth and said.

"One more sentence."

Li Xian put down his wine glass, looked at Hou Junji and said.

Hou Junji's face became extremely ugly, and he opened his mouth to say something but swallowed it back. He glanced at Li Xian, then lowered his head, closed his eyes, and pursed his lips tightly, as if he was thinking about something. Li Xian was not in a hurry, nor was he urging, and he didn't seem to mind how long Hou Junji had been thinking. At this moment, the hot food was brought back, and the two soldiers cleaned up the table, and then set the reheated dishes on the table.

Li Xian beckoned and motioned for everyone to sit around.

Just when everyone just sat down, Niu Jinda walked in quickly and hugged his fists and said: "General, the person has been found, crying and admitting his mistake, his subordinates ignored it, and ordered the law enforcement team to be punished with thirty canes per person and driven out of the barracks." According to the custom, the subordinates ordered each of them to be given a hundred good money for the road and medicine. ”

Li Xian nodded and said, "Sit down and drink." ”

Niu Jinda answered, sat down on the edge of the table, and said that everyone ate at the same table more often, and there was no rule of eating at separate tables. And when eating, Li Xian doesn't like to pay attention to so many rules, everyone is laughing and drinking and eating meat, if you are so careful to eat, Li Xian is also upset when she looks at it. Everyone drank wine and ate meat, but no one looked back at Hou Junji.

Li Xian asked a few words about what else needed to be added to the Yanwu Academy, and everyone discussed, talking and laughing, as if Hou Junji standing under the hall was air, and no one paid attention to it at all.

Seeing that the meal was about to be drunk, the food on the table was almost finished.

Hou Junji, who was standing in the hall, suddenly walked into the hall with difficulty, slowly walked to the edge of the table, then picked up the wine jug and poured a sip, pinched a piece of residual meat with his fingers and put it in his mouth to chew, the movements of his hands did not stop, pinched a piece of meat, and drank a sip of wine. The crowd was not angry, but just looked at him. Hou Junji didn't know if it was Chengzhu in his chest, but he let go of it anyway, stuffed the remaining cooked meat on the table into his mouth one bite at a time, and then drank the wine cleanly.

After eating, Hou Junji walked back to the hall with his steps, and then looked for it, and found that the long bluestone bench in the courtyard was good, so he walked over with great effort and then lay on it, his butt cocked, and he didn't know what he was doing. Everyone was a little surprised, but Li Xian and Xu Shiji showed a little smile on their faces, as if they were amused by Hou Junji's funny appearance.

"What does he mean by that?"

Cheng Zhijie asked puzzled.

Xu Shiji smiled slightly and sighed: "He can't think of how to impress the general with a word, Suo surnamed is full, and then waits with his ass to receive the thirty military sticks, as for him, he doesn't speak...... It was because the general gave him the opportunity to say three sentences, and he didn't say the last sentence, and the general's thirty military sticks would not be easy to fight. ”

"Really...... Shameless. ”

Xiong Kuohai muttered.

Li Xian stood up with a smile and walked towards the inner hall with his hands in his hands.

"Get some medicine on his ass, and then come to my personal team."

……

……

Taiyuan, Hexi

The mansion left behind by Li Yuan in Taiyuan is not very magnificent, although it occupies a large area, but the mansion is ordinary and even inferior to the average rich family, and there is no wealth and nobility no matter how you look at it. Even if a serious person looks at the back house from the door, he will never see any illegal buildings, and the house is a little too simple.

From this point, it can be seen that Li Yuan is cautious, since Yang Jian revealed a little suspicion of him many years ago, Li Yuan has become more and more low-key, and later, Yang Guang ascended the throne and demoted him from a big official of the third rank all the way to a petty official of the fifth grade, such a shame Li Yuan endured without revealing a trace of disrespect. It is precisely because of his careful humility that Yang Guang will reactivate him.

Now that he is the largest official in the land of Hexi, he is still very cautious, and he will never say anything that violates the etiquette system, and does anything that violates the etiquette system, even if the strategists in the family occasionally mention some such words, the good-tempered Li Yuan will also refute it with a cold face.

This year, heavy rain fell in Hexi in the spring, this is a good year, Li Yuan, who has just returned from the inspection of the following counties, also has a slight smile on his face, and seems to be in a good mood. After this rain, the wheat drank enough water, and it was impossible to say that when the summer grain was put into storage, it would be a good harvest year.

Li Yuan spent a month in the administration of the country, and by the way, he eliminated some bandits that endangered the township.

There are not many soldiers in Taiyuan County, but Li Yuan has a few brave generals under his tent, such as Liu Hongji and others, as well as resourceful staff members such as Changsun Shunde, so he waved his troops to fight and dealt with those grass robbers. The people in the west of the river are fierce, and there are many rebels. Li Yuan asked for more men and horses, and Yang Guang ordered him to recruit county soldiers on his own, and the money and grain needed were allocated by the Taiyuan County Treasury.

Li Yuan sent the eldest Sun Shunde and Liu Hongji to recruit troops, and recruited more than 10,000 horses in just a dozen days, and the number of county soldiers in Taiyuan County reached 30,000 since then.

After Li Yuan's troops increased greatly, he went around to suppress the anti-thieves, and fought dozens of battles in the past year, each time he won a big victory. Moreover, Li Yuan attaches great importance to civil affairs, and the people love him a lot.

After returning from the inspection of the following counties, the first thing Li Yuan did was to rush back to his house to visit his wife Dou. Dou's body is frail and sick, it is the root of the old disease left more than ten years ago, and it has not been cured for a long time, and his body has been particularly weak this year.

Li Yuan hurriedly entered his mansion, and the staff members in the Tang Guogong Mansion, Chen Yinshou, the eldest grandson Shunde, and the eldest grandson Wuji's uncle and nephew were already waiting at the door.

The eldest grandson Shunde and the eldest grandson Wuji's uncle and nephew are both guests in the Tang State Mansion.

Among these three, Li Yuan especially values the eldest grandson Wuji, if it comes to wisdom and power, compared to the eldest grandson Shunde and Chen Yinshou old foxes, the eldest grandson Wuji is still a little worse. But his advantage is that he is young, and now he is only about twenty years old, but his thoughtfulness and cautiousness are what Li Yuan admires the most.

Everyone greeted Li Yuan and followed him and walked briskly to the house.

"I'm going out for this time, what's going on in the house?"

Li Yuan asked as he walked.

"Everything is fine in the house."

Chen Yinshou and eldest grandson Shunde said at the same time.

Li Yuan snorted and asked, "Madame, are you okay?" Did you take every medicine on time? ”

"The medicine was taken on time, but Mrs. Tang Gong was worried about it, and ...... Duke Tang is not in the mansion, and Madame seems to miss her even more......"

It was the eldest grandson Wuji who answered, he didn't say the next words, but Li Yuan understood the meaning, he sighed and didn't say anything, but his steps were a little faster.

"Where is Madame now?"

"Buddha Hall."

Li Yuan snorted, turned around and walked in the direction of the Buddha Hall. As soon as he entered the door, he saw his wife Dou sincerely kneeling in front of the Buddha statue and bowing, her body trembling, and her gray hair on her temples looked a little messy.

"Why are you here again?"

Li Yuan said with some complaints: "You should stay in bed more." ”

Dou turned around and saw that it was Li Yuan who came back, so he quickly got up and asked, "Just came back?" It's been a hard trip, isn't it? ”

"What's hard, it's just thinking about you."

Li Yuan helped Dou put on a piece of clothing, turned around and instructed the maid, "Help Mrs. go back to the room." ”

He smiled at Dou and said, "There's good news for you!" ”
