Chapter Seventy-Eight: When the Foot of the Wall is Digged
"Master Pei, there is also Yuwen Chengdu who has made meritorious contributions, the emperor rewarded Li Xin alone, but did not reward Yuwen Chengdu, why is this?" Yu Shiji said with some worry: "I'm afraid there will be people who are dissatisfied." ”
"Lord Yu, don't you see it? The emperor wants to use Li Xin, so he is not his backer, and he forcibly let Li Yuan be Li Xin's backer, but he is worried that Li Xin will fall into the arms of the Guanlong family, so he rewarded Li Xin, but not Yuwen Chengdu, which makes the people of the Guanlong family hate Li Xin, plus Li Xin exterminated the bandits in Juxian County, and the Guanlong family suffered heavy losses, who do you think Li Xin can rely on in this case? ”
"Your Majesty." Yu Shiji's complexion changed, he himself is not stupid, after Pei Shiju's explanation, he immediately understood Yang Guang's thoughts, what he wanted was a sharp blade, this sharp blade could kill a qiē enemy for him, the Guanlong family, the Kanto family, etc., were all obstacles to him. used to be a general in his hands, but now that he has a Li Xin, how can he let it go?
"Hehe, this is what Lord Yu said himself! The old man didn't say anything. Pei Shiju's eyes rolled and said with a smile.
"Yes, yes, Master Pei didn't say anything, didn't say anything." Yu Shiji said with a smile: "Actually, I am thinking about that Li Yuan, I'm afraid that at the moment, he is roasting on the fire, neither up nor down, and he has suffered a big loss, which is really embarrassing for him as an honest man." ”
"Hmph, didn't it happen to marry Li Sanniang to Li Xin at the beginning? This time she married a girl, not only did she not get a good reputation, but she was also laughed at, Li Yuan, tsk. Pei Shiju shook his head and left in a leisurely manner.
"Big brother, is something happening?" In the study of the eldest grandson Wuji, the eldest grandson Wuji was holding a tray in his hand, and there was a trace of fragrance, but it was the eight-treasure lotus seed soup cooked by the eldest grandson Wuji himself. She is ice and snow smart, since the eldest grandson Wuji came back, she has locked herself in the study and can't come out.
"Nothing." The annoyance in Eldest Sun Wuji's eyes flashed, and he looked at Eldest Sun Wuji suspiciously, and then said in a low voice.
"Brother is suspicious of me and Li Xin?" The eldest grandson bit his silver teeth and asked gently: "I am innocent with General Li Xin, don't my brother believe it?" ”
"No, I do." The eldest grandson Wuji shook his head and said: "The key is that I don't believe it, the Li family must believe that there are rumors in the entire Daxing City today that there is a relationship between you and General Li Xin." ”
The eldest grandson Wuji's face was pale for a while, his delicate body trembled, his eyes faintly contained tears, he looked at the eldest grandson Wuji and said, "This is the reason why my brother brought me back?" I just don't want the Li family to insult me? ”
"Hey, innocent. We don't know what decision the Li family made. Still, prepare for the worst. The eldest grandson Wuji sighed. What is the most important thing in the family, that is face, the purpose of these people who secretly spread rumors is to deal with Li Xin, as for the feelings of the eldest grandson, they don't pay attention to it at all.
For the sake of face, whether the Li family will agree to the marriage between Li Shimin and the eldest grandson Wujian is not allowed, according to the eldest grandson Wujian's own guess, the possibility of the Li family agreeing is very small. Just to avoid worrying his sister, the eldest grandson Wuji didn't say it.
"The Li family won't agree, right?" The eldest grandson Wuji's face was frosty, his eyes stared at the eldest grandson Wuji, and he said seriously.
"This, innocent, time will be washed away." The eldest grandson Wujian finally said. Time will dispel something, maybe it will dispel these rumors, but it is also possible to dispel the feelings between Li Shimin and the eldest grandson Wujian. Li Shimin is the son of a dignified family, Li Yuan is honest on the surface, but in fact he is ambitious, the eldest grandson Wuji is in charge of the information of the Perak Hall, and he has long been aware of this, how could such a person let his son marry the eldest grandson Wujian at this time.
"I don't believe it." The eldest grandson shook his head and said, "I'm going to wait for the answer he gave me." ”
"Sister." The eldest grandson Wuji's face was gloomy and he said, "It's all Li Xin's fault." ”
"Brother, if it weren't for General Li Xin, I'm afraid that what you see me now is a corpse, General Li Xin is chivalrous, in the chaos of the army, he saved me and protected me, he is a strange man in the world, you say this, in fact, you are belittling your sister." The eldest grandson retorted loudly.
"Sister, won't you?" The eldest grandson Wuji looked at the eldest grandson Wuji with a surprised face.
"Brother, you're thinking too much about it again." The eldest grandson Wujian put aside the eight-treasure lotus seed soup in his hand and said, "If the Li family really doesn't want me, I will go to Zhongnan Mountain to be a female crown quietly." ”
"Don't say this, you are beautiful, even if Li Shimin doesn't want it, can't you still be married to others? If he doesn't want it, it's the fault of his Li family. Yuwen Chengdu is right, a man can't even protect his own woman, how can he be a man? Although the eldest grandson Wuji is more utilitarian, he and the eldest grandson Wuji have relied on each other for more than ten years, and this kind of relationship can actually be compared with utilitarianism.
"Brother, you don't have to." The eldest grandson shook his head and refused: "The elder brother is the elder brother, and the younger sister is the younger sister." The literary and martial arts that the elder brother learned should be sold to the emperor's family. Tang Guogong will be an important step, and my brother can't miss it because of me. ”
"Haha, innocent, you underestimate your brother too much, if I am such a character, then I am the most heartless person in the world. Even if I can dominate the world in the future, if I can't even take care of my sister, what's the point of this? The eldest grandson Wuji laughed and said, "Sister, don't worry, I believe that Li Shimin is not the kind of person who will be swayed by rumors, and soon, he will definitely come to the door to propose marriage." ”
"I hope so!" The eldest grandson said softly. There was no happy look on her face, how could she not know that the words of the eldest grandson Wuji were to comfort herself. Otherwise, they would not have turned around at the city gate and returned to the manor outside the city.
"Innocent, if you don't want to stay in Guanzhong one day, go find Li Xin!" Suddenly the voice of the eldest grandson Wuji came from behind, and there was a trace of sadness in his voice.
The eldest grandson Wuji's delicate body shook for a while, but he didn't say anything, but directly submerged his body into the darkness, and there were bursts of sighs from behind the eldest grandson Wuji.
Although the eldest grandson Wuji was reluctant to admit it, he dared to conclude that the marriage between Li Shimin and the eldest grandson Wuji was probably going to be annulled. If there was still hope, Li Shimin at this time must have come outside the manor, and the rumors in Daxing City were so rampant, he didn't believe that Li Yuan didn't know. Li Shimin did not come, which is enough to explain Li Yuan's attitude. It's just a pity that his sister, and he doesn't even know what to do with his eldest grandson Wuji? However, he knew that the eldest grandson Wujian must not stay in Guanzhong, and if someone wants to act, the first one to deal with is the eldest grandson Wujian, who will continue to calculate Li Xin and Li Yuan.
"Is the eldest grandson here? Li Xin came to visit. At this moment, there was a sound of horses' hooves outside, followed by Li Xin's loud voice.
