In the spacious and simple backyard, surrounded by the fragrant fragrance of the dragon's birthday, Li Shimin and Li Jing talked about the game around an ancient chess table.

Li Shimin is generous and domineering, step by step, killing everywhere, Li Jing attacks and defends in an orderly manner, one son and one son, step by step.

Compared with Li Jing, Li Shimin is bold, with both a long-term vision and a gambler mentality that dares to kill and fight, and pays equal attention to courage and strategy. But Li Jing is steady, decisive for thousands of miles, and has hidden tricks step by step, and he is not lost to Li Shimin.

The two of them are going to meet good materials on the chessboard, and they are going to meet opponents in chess. The game between the two of them is like two world-famous generals fighting to the death on the battlefield, calculating each other, and the sky is dark.

It's at its most intense. Li Jing suddenly said: "The emperor seems to have something to worry about, although the old minister is old and bids farewell to the court, but his loyalty to the emperor has not diminished in the slightest, and he is willing to share his worries for the emperor......."

Li Jing had already been at home for a long time, and he didn't care about the world, and he didn't know about the major affairs of the DPRK and China, let alone the rampant methods and practices of Songtsen Gampo in Tubo, but he knew that Li Shimin's visit was by no means simply to play against him.

Li Shimin was not surprised, but said lightly: "There is chaos in the south, and I only hate to go to get rid of the trouble." ”

The smart man didn't say a word when he spoke, although Li Shimin didn't say how the Tubo Songtsen Gampo was, but this sentence "I only hate and can't go to get rid of the disaster in person" has already secretly led the party to live in trouble and has to fight. At the same time, Li Jing only told the old man to stay at home, not imprisoned at home, and his ears did not listen to what was going on outside the window.

He didn't know about the situation in the south that had just come to him, but he knew that Li Daozong's expedition to Goguryeo and Li Ji, the secretary of the military department, fell ill and fell ill in the palace. Combined with the top and bottom, and then thinking of the sentence "go to get rid of trouble", Li Shimin's worries naturally surfaced.

Li Jingzhi can reach the sky, how can he not hear the mystery?

As an emperor, there is no shortage of examples in history of imperial conquests, and Yang Guangsan's expedition to Goguryeo is the best example. Li Shimin's personal expedition is not unavoidable. It's just that the emperor is a heavy responsibility in the world, and when he goes to conquer, someone must supervise the country. And the person who is in charge of the country must be the prince of the country, and now that the prince of the country has not been established, Li Shimin cannot be entrusted with the government affairs in his hands, how can he get away?

The word "lack of handsomeness" flashed in Li Jing's mind.

Li Jing raised his chess and said, "The minister has a suitable candidate in his heart......

Li Shimin's heart moved: "Who is it?" ”

Li Jing smiled calmly, his smile was full of the meaning of seeing through everything, and he said in his words: "The candidate in the minister's heart is the most suitable candidate in His Majesty's heart......"

Li Shimin said: "Duhe's kid is really good, if it were a few years later, I wouldn't have hesitated today." He is too young, even if Huo Quai, a genius of the sky, is at the same age as him, the soldiers he leads, only 50,000, are still supported by Wei Qing, the strongest backing. It is really a risk to let Du He lead an army of tens of thousands of people alone......"

Li Shimin doesn't care so much about age, what he cares about is experience.

The gap in experience cannot be bridged even in high talent.

Li Jing put the chess pieces in his hand into the chess bowl, looked at Li Shimin with his eyes and said, "Your Majesty is afraid?" ”

Li Shimin was stunned for a while, his eyes also looked at Li Jing, his eyes showed a hint of fierceness, and he stared deeply for a long time before laughing: "Yes, what the pharmacist said is that I am indeed a little afraid, and only the pharmacist dares to talk to me like this." ”

The Tang Dynasty has grown from weak to strong, from a country that let the Turks kill and humiliate and bully at the door, to the current empire that shocks the four regions and is feared by the world, which is inseparable from Li Shimin's personal efforts.

It wasn't easy for him to get to where he is today.

The higher you stand, the more you are afraid of falling, the more you gain, and the more you are afraid of losing.

It's human nature. Just like a dead pig is not afraid of boiling water, a person who often loses can not take failure as a thing, but a person who wins often is far less open-minded.

After the Tang Dynasty determined its hegemony, it won all foreign wars without defeat. It's like a team, because they win all, everyone is looking forward to losing for the first time. The same is true of Datang, between countries, there are only interests. Even if they are allies, they don't want their friends to be far superior to them.

They are looking forward to Datang's first defeat and hope that someone can break the myth of Datang's undefeated. In this situation, the pressure on Li Shimin is naturally getting bigger and bigger, and gradually he can't let go, and he also has an obsession with victory in his heart.

Li Jing said: "Then Your Majesty, the minister took the liberty of asking, what will happen if my Datang loses?" ”

Li Shimin was stunned at first, and then laughed.

**********

Zhao Guogong Mansion.

The eldest grandson Shunde looked at the eldest grandson Wuji with straight eyes, and only hoped that his nephew would nod in agreement. He believes that with the status of the eldest grandson Wuji in the court, as long as he is willing to help. I don't dare to say that it will be 100% successful, but I am still 70% sure.

The eldest grandson, Shunde, is also a capable general and has some confidence in his military level. He didn't know much about Tibet, and he just thought that Tibet was a powerful chief in the southwest. It's okay to bully local forces, it's not comparable to Datang. Sending troops to beat him is like beating his son, there is no difficulty.

The eldest grandson Wuji figured out the thoughts of the eldest grandson Shunde, and he didn't think about it, he shook his head and refused: "No, Your Majesty is hesitating, but the final candidate for the tenth will be Du He......"

"Duhe again?" When the eldest grandson Shunde heard this name, he was so angry that he almost jumped. Hou Junji was imprisoned by Li Shimin because of the Gaochang incident, and Li Ji, the general of Zuo Weiwei, was promoted to the secretary of the military department, and the general of Zuo Weiwei, where he was, became vacant and needed to be replaced. At that time, the eldest grandson Shunde was almost the best candidate. But Du He stepped in and cured Qin Qiong, and let Qin Qiong, who was recuperating at home, rob him of his place.

Qin Qiong is loyal and righteous, and has saved Li Shimin's life on the battlefield many times, whether it is a civil minister or a military general, he must respect him for three points, and the eldest grandson Shunde does not dare to fight with him, and all the resentment is hated on Du He. In addition, over the years, Du He's grievances with the eldest grandson's family have made his resentment towards Du He even exceed that of anyone in the eldest grandson's family.

"How come all good things are on him......"

In order to prevent Du He from making meritorious achievements again, his position in the army became more and more stable, and he specially arranged a dinner, implying that Du He went to war again and again, participated in almost all the foreign wars of the Zhenguan Dynasty, and got the opportunity treatment that many good generals could not get, and quietly saved the possibility of Du He's expedition to Goguryeo. Li Shimin nodded at the court and missed Du He, looking at Du He's stunned expression at that time, he was secretly proud for a while.

Originally, with Li Ji and Li Daozong, Du He wanted to become the commander of the three armies, commanding an army of more than 100,000 people, and being in charge alone. Can ...... now

The eldest grandson Wuji didn't say it in his mouth, and he had already regretted his intestines in his heart, so what if Du He conquered Goguryeo? No matter how good his performance is, there is always a commander of the three armed forces above him, no matter how great the credit is, it is impossible to be greater than the commander-in-chief of the three armed forces.

He never imagined that before a month, there was an accident in Tibet. Li Ji fell at this time, but it gave Du He an excellent opportunity to dominate the army.

Once Du Henan won the victory of the Tibetan expedition, he won all the merits and officially became the famous marshal of the Tang Dynasty after succeeding Li Xiaogong, Li Jing, Li Ji, Li Daozong and others.

He wanted to suppress Duhe's development, but instead gave Duhe a chance.

In the past, Du He's good deeds were all won by Du He himself, but this time he gave them to them. The words of the eldest grandson Shunde were like ear scrapers, and they hit him hard in the face.

This makes the eldest grandson unscrupulous.

"Okay, don't talk about it......" The eldest grandson Wuji's mood at the moment was as awkward and uncomfortable as eating poop, and he didn't want to talk more about this matter: "Uncle certainly has some skills in the military, but this southern expedition is not trivial, Du He can win two victories over Hou Junji, it can be seen that his ability, you can't compete with him." That's it......"

The eldest grandson Shunde was angry, glanced left and right, hated his heart, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty's favor for Du He is too much. Isn't he powerful, we might as well let him be defeated...... See how Your Majesty protects him......"

"Bang"

The eldest grandson Wuji suddenly slammed the tea bowl in his hand to the ground, and the huge impact made the tea bowl fall apart, and the tea fragments splashed on the two of them respectively.

"Ridiculous ......" Eldest Sun Wuji was like an angry lion at this time, glaring at Eldest Sun Shunde and saying sharply: "Do you have any brains?" The reason why my eldest grandson's family has today's status depends on Datang, Datang is good, my eldest grandson's family is naturally good, Datang is threatened, and my eldest grandson's life will not be easy. What is the difference between harming the interests of Datang and digging up the ground and burying yourself, this matter should not be mentioned again. ”

The eldest grandson Wuji was angry in his heart, and he spoke unceremoniously. Although he is not a righteous gentleman, he has a sincere loyalty to Li Shimin and Datang. He can conspire and calculate everything, but he will never do anything that will make Datang hurt.

The eldest grandson Shunde belongs to the oldest generation of the eldest grandson's family, and the eldest grandson Wuji is his nephew. Let the younger generation, so reprimanded, his heart is also angry, but because of the absolute authority of the eldest grandson Wuji in the eldest grandson's family, he didn't dare to provoke him, and he threw his sleeves away, but his eyes were full of endless anger.

The eldest grandson Wuji gave Du He a big gift with his own hands, and his heart was also full of strange emotions. He is a human being after all, not a real Maitreya Buddha, and he will also be troubled by emotions, and he will not be able to be calm forever, let alone be like Maitreya Buddha.

The words of the eldest grandson Shunde were the fuse that stimulated the emotions of the eldest grandson Wuji and made him lose control in a short period of time.

As soon as the words came out, the eldest grandson Wuji also felt a little disrespectful to the elders, but the words he said were like water spilled out, and it was difficult to collect the water.

Eldest Sun Wuji opened his mouth and didn't say anything, just watched in a daze as Eldest Sun Shunde's figure disappeared from sight.

He never imagined that this gaffe would become the beginning of the decline of the eldest grandson's family.

: I'm really sorry, my relatives and friends caught up with Longzi during the New Year, they all got married during the Spring Festival, ate five wedding wines, and paid New Year's greetings, so I really can't spare time......

Update Recovery ......

Another greeting to everyone in their old age...
