Chapter Twenty-Four: General Longwu (Third Update)
Li Longjiqin ordered Li Changguo to be a general, which was really surprising, and Li Changguo was also stunned.
However, if you think about it carefully, this is also reasonable, because although Li Changguo and Li Longji only met twice, it was beyond Li Longji's expectations every time.
The first time they met, the two were on the occasion of a tour of Qujiang Pond, and Li Changguo solved the problem of whether Li Longji could not send troops to Shibao City in a few words.
This meeting was a big surprise to Li Longji, and the young man he admired was the brave captain of the Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate, who was famous for his bravery, he really didn't expect it, and he was very happy.
However, Li Longji immediately gave Li Changguo a big problem, asking Li Changguo to find a way to reduce the casualties in the attack on Shibao City. How difficult this matter is, just think about why Wang Zhongsi refused to send troops, it is such a difficult problem, and Li Changguo still has an idea.
Although Li Changguo's idea does not have much hope, it is better than no hope at all. Besides, if you use it well, you don't necessarily can't succeed.
A series of accidents made Li Longji's good impression of Li Changguo increase by a few points, and he was not allowed to return to the Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate, and asked him to go to the Longwu Army, and it was reasonable to order Li Changguo as a general.
"Good start!"
Li Changguo understands very well that his weight in Li Longji's mind is not light, this is a very good start, and he is one step closer to stopping the Anshi Rebellion.
"However, this is only the beginning, and it is still too far to stop the Anshi Rebellion!"
At the same time, Li Changguo is alert to himself, although he has a good start, his foundation is still shallow, his status is not high, and his power is not great. There are countless five-grade officials like him who have grabbed a lot of money in Chang'an.
"Gao Lishi, give Li Changguo a court dress, and then lead him to see Chen Xuanli." Li Longji smiled and waved at Li Changguo.
It is a great honor to ask Gao Lishi, a celebrity next to Li Longji, to lead Li Changguo to handle these things!
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Li Changguo thanked him and left with Colliers.
Looking at Li Changguo's back, Li Longji bowed slightly: "This Li Changguo is beyond my expectations everywhere!" Not bad! ”
As soon as he came out of the imperial study, Gao Lishi did not rush to lead Li Changguo to receive the court clothes, but stood still, opened his eyes wide, and looked at Li Changguo well, with a glint in his eyes, as if he was looking at a baby.
Li Changguo was very surprised and asked, "General of the Right Prison Guard, who are you?" ”
The general of the right guard is the official position of Colliers.
"You're a curious person." Gao Lishi's voice was very high-pitched, and he said, "I have served His Majesty for decades, and I have never seen a young man as surprising as you. Let's go! ”
Hurry up with small steps, walk in the head, and lead Li Changguo away.
After walking nearly a mile to the left, in front of a warehouse, the eunuch on duty here was busy coming to see Gao Lishi, the first eunuch of the dynasty, coming.
"That's it!" Gao Lishi waved his hand: "The court clothes, on the fifth grade, bring them." ”
The eunuch received the order, walked away quickly, and after a while, he brought the court clothes.
Li Changguo took a look, this was a light crimson court dress, wearing a silverfish bag.
According to the dress system of the Tang Dynasty, officials above the third rank wore purple robes and goldfish bags; Fourth-grade officials wear dark scarlet court clothes, fifth-grade officials wear light scarlet court clothes, six-grade dark green, seventh-grade light green, and wear silverfish bags; Eight grades of dark blue, nine grades of light blue, wear copper fish bags.
The fish bag is used to hold the official status of these documents, which should be carried with you, which is a symbol of status.
Han Yu has a poem "Open the door and ask who is coming, it is nothing more than Doctor Qing." I don't know the official high and low, the jade belt hangs the goldfish", a good role of the Daoming fish bag.
Li Changguo is the rank of the fifth grade, far from the third grade, and the purple robe and goldfish bag are still 108,000 miles away from him.
After receiving the court clothes, Gao Lishi took Li Changguo to see Chen Xuanli.
These eunuchs looked at Li Changguo's back, were very surprised, and whispered: "Who is this?" is only a five-grade official, but he has to work as a tall man. ”
Gao Lishi is a popular person around Li Longji, and he is extremely favored, if the person he leads is a third-grade and second-grade master, these eunuchs will not talk much, and will take it for granted. However, the person personally brought by Gao Lishi turned out to be a mere five-grade official, and it would be impossible for them not to be curious.
"General Chen is an old man in the East Palace, he has served His Majesty for decades, and is in charge of the palace guards, don't be rude when you see him." Colliers has a good impression of Li Changguo and kindly reminds him.
"Thank you, sir!" Li Changguo never thought that Gao Lishi, who slandered Li Bai, would be so kind and reminded him.
After thinking about it, although Gao Lishi was criticized by future generations, and some people scolded him for being a minister, in fact, Gao Lishi and the words are not close to each other, and he can be called a sage among eunuchs, and he is loyal to Li Longji.
Think about it carefully, Li Bai asked Gao Lishi to take off his boots, it was really a bit Meng Lang, people didn't recruit you, they didn't provoke you, you asked Gao Lishi to take off his boots as soon as you raised your feet, who could stand it?
As he walked, Gao Lishi told some taboos in the palace, and he spoke very carefully and seriously, and it could be seen that he really admired Li Changguo.
Soon, he came to the Longwu Army station. The Longwu Army is the forbidden army in the palace, and its military camp covers an extremely wide area, with a radius of several miles, the camp is strict, and the weather is thousands, which makes people respect it at first sight.
In front of the barracks, a group of soldiers guarded the camp gate. These soldiers were all tigers and bears, like iron towers, and they stood there like a pine, proud and inviolable.
They carried hard bows and arrows, hung horizontal swords at their waists, their helmets were bright, and their bright light armor was shining in the light, like steel monsters.
"Good!"
Li Changguo is a person who knows the goods, and at a glance, he knows that these soldiers are all good hands.
The Long Wu Army is the forbidden army of the Tang Dynasty, which can be said to be a concentration camp for martial arts masters.
"At the behest of His Majesty, Gao Lishi led his relatives Xun Yi Wei Yu Lin Lang to bring Li Changguo to meet General Chen." Colliers stepped forward and explained aloud.
This is the barracks of the Longwu Army, and the military discipline is extremely strict, even if the red people are like Gao Lishi, they can't come and go casually.
"Lord Gao, please wait a moment, I'll wait for this!" The lead team is saluting.
Li Changguo looked at these dragon martial forces, and these dragon martial artists were also looking at him, all of them with a look of vigilance.
They are all connoisseurs, and they can see at a glance that Li Changguo is not easy to mess with.
"Knock knock!"
Heavy footsteps sounded, and I saw a white-bearded and white-haired veteran, dressed in bright light armor, with a horizontal sword hanging from his waist, walking quickly.
He is Chen Xuanli, the current General of Longwu!
Chen Xuanli, an old minister of Li Longji's East Palace, followed Li Longji before Li Longji made his career. Li Longji killed Empress Wei and Princess Anle, and he contributed a lot. Later, Li Longji killed Princess Taiping, and he also made great efforts.
Yes, Li Longji trusted him very much, and handed over the Long Wu Army to him to be in charge, and the safety of the entire palace was in his hands, so it can be said that Li Longji handed over his net worth and surname to him.
In addition, Chen Xuanli also did one thing, that is, one of the planners of the "Ma Wei Incident", he raised troops to support the crown prince Li Xiang, forced Li Longji to kill Yang Guifei and beheaded Yang Guozhong.
