Chapter 727: Hiding from the sky and crossing the sea
Dengzhou Mansion, Cui Mingan and Li Shentong sat across the case, the fragrance of tea in front of them was ethereal, both of them were wearing brocade robes, their faces were full of smiles, and they talked cordially as if they were friends, but the relationship between them was only known to the two of them.
"Can the prince really be sure that Li Xin will not attack Shandong?" Cui Mingan glanced at Li Shentong, and asked with some worry in his heart. Li Yuanji left, although the 100,000 army stayed in Shandong, but Cui Mingan knew that Li Shentong could not command the 100,000 army. Cui Mingan had to seriously consider this issue.
"Although it will not attack, it is certain." Li Shentong shook his head and said, "The three brothers of the Qi family have entered Shandong. Isn't that proof? Or is Cheng Biting Jin's soldiers and horses active between Shandong and Henan, isn't it just dragging down Xu Shiji's army? All this shows that although Li Xin will not attack Shandong now, he will definitely send people to infiltrate Shandong. ”
"Li Xin will not attack Shandong? Right now? Cui Min smiled bitterly: "Li Xin, this person is elusive and extremely treacherous, what can't he do?" Didn't we all think of escaping from Dengzhou at the beginning? This time, it may not be possible that Shandong will not be attacked. If so, what can we do against it? ”
"Li Xin is in Liyang now, and I heard that he is playing there with his Turkic women! Of the 60,000 army, only 10,000 people followed him to Chang'an, and the rest followed Qin Qiong's southern expedition. How can we attack Shandong? Just 10,000 people? Li Shentong shook his head and said, "Our people have already followed Li Xin and Qin Qiong, as long as there is a little bit of abnormality, they will definitely come to tell us." Shandong's 100,000-strong army was prepared for them. What else is Master Cui afraid of? ”
"Huh! That's of course, that's of course. Cui Mingan nodded, a hint of embarrassment in the depths of his eyes.
"It's just Lord Cui, the army is moving. The most important thing is the grain and grass, this Shandong is Lord Cui as the main official, and the army is on the march, and the grain and grass still need to be raised properly by Lord Cui! Li Shentong said with a smile.
"Okay. Serve His Majesty together, and the lower officials will naturally obey the order. Cui Mingan didn't even think about it, so he nodded and said. Everybody is smart. What is the truth about the Shandong bandits, everyone knows that Li Shentong didn't say it when he came, which made Cui Mingan feel very comfortable, so he agreed without hesitation to Li Shentong's request for grain and grass supply.
However, since Cui Mingan agreed to supply grain and grass, it means that the land matter in Shandong has come to an end. Whether it's Cui Mingan or not. Or Li Shentong, each of them has benefited.
The next day, many families in Shandong began to transport grain and grass for Li Shentong, and Li Daozong and Li Xiaogong began to lead the army to march, they did not have many soldiers and horses in their hands, only a few thousand people, they had to go to various parts of Shandong to select soldiers and horses, and select available people from 100,000 troops. With the support of the Kanto family. All this is naturally no problem.
Liyang, what is Li Xin doing? Li Xin is sick. Originally, in Du Fuwei's mansion, all the famous doctors in Liyang were arrested by Wei Chigong and asked to diagnose Li Xin's illness, but some people who were interested still got the news from Du Fu's mansion that Li Xin had a bad cold, and I heard that it was when he was in the dark with the princess of the grassland that night. On a whim, I caught a cold.
Although it is gossip, it is still very marketable in Liyang, and many people in the market are circulating this matter, some people say that the grassland princess is a fox. His Majesty the Emperor was also very brave, and this is what went wrong.
Simply although he has typhoid fever, it is not a big problem, as long as he concentrates on cultivation, this makes Liyang breathe a sigh of relief, after all, if Li Xin has a problem here, there is still a lot of pressure on Liyang.
"Your Majesty, you're scared to death." In the back garden of Du's mansion, Du Fuwei and Chu Suiliang surrounded Li Xin, Li Xin's face was slightly pale, and he looked like typhoid fever.
"If you don't, how can you hide it from others. Du Qing, are the soldiers and horses ready? Li Xin said indifferently. He was sick, but he was sick and played by himself, and it was also under control, so it was like this.
"Although the minister came alone, in Liyang, it is still very easy to gather 10,000 soldiers and horses." Du Fuwei said without thinking.
"I'm afraid that only General Du can do such a skill." Chu Suiliang said with a smile: "Moreover, Your Majesty wants to lead the army to go, I'm afraid that General Du needs to cover up his whereabouts." ”
"Hmm." Li Xin nodded and said: "Let the Jinyi Guards dispatch, from Henan to Shandong, all the Jinyi Guards will be moved, and anyone who goes to Shandong must be checked and ordered, and orders Henan, Xuzhou, and within the control of our army, no one or anything can enter or leave Shandong." The army went out day and night, and in the shortest possible time, felt Caozhou. ”
"Yes." Du Fuwei was shocked when he heard this, but he still nodded.
"Your Majesty, do you want the general's side to cooperate?" Chu Suiliang said with some concern.
"Are you worried about Li Shimin?" Li Xin took out a piece of information from the side, handed it to Chu Suiliang and said: "Li Yuan has already recruited his two sons back to Beijing, I am very surprised, why did Li Yuan summon Li Shimin and Li Yuanji back to Beijing at this time!" Could it be that Li Yuan himself felt that his body was no longer good, so he made arrangements in advance? ”
"Although Li Yuan's body is not good, he shouldn't be old to this extent! The minister thought that Li Yuan was worried about the relationship between the three sons, so he called the three of them to his eyes, taught them a lesson, and let the three brothers unite and cooperate to deal with His Majesty together. Chu Suiliang thought for a while and said.
"If that's the case, I'm afraid Li Yuan's idea will come to naught, Li Yuanji doesn't know it yet, but Li Shimin will definitely not give up the position of prince easily, he is a person with great ambitions, and he thinks that in today's world, unless he can save Li Zhao. Li Jiancheng can govern the world, but if he competes with me, it is still a little worse. Li Xin shook his head and said.
"Once the general sends troops, Li Shimin will probably have to go back." Du Fuwei thought for a moment and said, "The minister thinks that the general should not be allowed to send troops in this matter. It is not necessarily a good thing for the three brothers to stay together. ”
What Du Qing said was very true. The contradiction between these three brothers is no longer something that Li Yuan can solve by casually talking, if the general makes a move, Li Shimin is afraid that he will return to Taiyuan immediately. Li Xin thought for a while and said, "Then let the three brothers fight in Xindu for a while." I took Shandong first. ”
"Do you see clearly? The Tang Emperor was really inside. In a small restaurant outside the Du Mansion, two young people discussed in a low voice while drinking.
"See clearly, Li Xin is inside, one of us pretended to be a doctor and went in, Li Xin was indeed hurt, and it was more serious, hehe, the peony flower is also a ghost, Li Xin is young, naturally he can't control it in this regard, and it is normal to come up with a little new trick at this time." The other chuckled.
"Presumptuous, you have to keep an eye on it carefully, the commander suspects that Li Xin has other plans here, and he is rash and sick, who knows if there is a problem here! If he is allowed to come out of the shell of a golden cicada, I am afraid that your life and mine will be difficult to protect. A young man on the other side said cautiously.
"How is it possible, his 10,000 guards are still here, and the golden cicada is out of its shell, where are the 10,000 people?" The young man who spoke just now said disdainfully: "Look, aren't you Du Fuwei? Tsk, Emperor Li Tang is timid, in this place of Liyang, it is not enough for a Wei Chigong to defend, and let Du Fuwei come. Such a cowardly person does not know how he took over the world. ”
"I don't know how people take over the world, but I know that Li Xin has occupied most of the world." Another young man also looked at Du Fuwei in the distance, but he didn't see the shopkeeper and the shopkeeper on the other side, looking at the two while settling accounts, and the corners of his mouth showed a hint of disdain.
These two people don't want to think about it, in front of Du Fuwei's mansion to find out information, Datang's Jinyiwei is not stupid to such a point, in Liyang, itself is Du Fuwei's territory, which place has what kind of details he doesn't know, in front of his own mansion, opening a restaurant, itself is an unusual thing, these two Zhao Feng members still want to inquire about the news, it is simply looking for death.
"Two guest officers, this is the newly brewed Liyang Spring Wine in our shop, today our shopkeeper has a birthday, and I specially took it out for you to taste one or two." At this time, the shopkeeper suddenly held a pot of wine, lowered his head and smiled.
The two young men glanced at the shopkeeper when they heard this, but saw that the shopkeeper had a smile on his face, and arched his hand towards the two of them, with a happy face. The two of them also saw that the other customers in the restaurant had already drunk the free wine, and they were immediately relieved.
"Thank you, shopkeeper. Come back and thank you for me. The young man also smiled and arched his hand to the shopkeeper, let the shopkeeper fill himself with wine, took a sip gently, and suddenly felt a spicy spicy from his tongue to his chest, he had not coughed out, and felt a fragrance in his mouth, and couldn't help but shout good.
"Oh! I'll try it too. Seeing this, the young man on the other side also took a drink, his eyes narrowed, and he nodded again and again.
"Two guest officers, please use it slowly." Seeing this, the shopkeeper hurriedly put the wine jug on the table and retreated by himself.
Seeing this, the two young men nodded, and beckoned the shopkeeper to serve some appetizers such as braised mutton, and the two drank like this, but after a while, they saw the two of them slowly lying on the table.
"Xiao Er, hurry, the two guest officers have drunk too much, hurry up and help them to the guest room to rest." The shopkeeper saw it clearly, and couldn't help but greet the shopkeeper and said loudly.
"Alright, alright." The shopkeeper hurriedly greeted the two companions, and carried the two young men to the back room, and along the way, they also received bursts of applause from the customers who were drinking next to them. (To be continued.) )
