"Minister Liu Yuan, see the emperor."

Li Er met Liu Yuan in the imperial study, and as soon as he saw Li Er, Liu Yuan immediately saluted.

"Well, yes, I see that you walk with a tiger and speak with a lot of energy, it seems that the injury is not a big deal."

"Emperor Xie cares" Liu Yuan said with a grateful face: "Fortunately, the emperor has seen Qiuhao and sent the Xuanjia army to arrive in time, otherwise, I am afraid that the minister will never see the emperor again." ”

Li Er looked at Liu Yuan, smiled, and then asked with some curiosity: "Liu Yuan, didn't you go back to Yangzhou to recuperate?" Yangzhou is a good place, it is a good choice to go to Yangzhou in summer to escape the heat, why is it so tanned? ”

Well, even Li Er laughed at himself, Liu Yuan touched his head a little embarrassed and said: "It's that after I go back, there are some small things to deal with, and I have to run outside on dog days, so I get a little tanned, by the way, the emperor summoned Weichen so urgently, I don't know what to order?" ”

"I'm really anxious, so guess what." Li Er suddenly said with interest.

"Has the situation changed on the Western Front?"

"War, it changes every day, but it's not enough to summon you so urgently, and besides, my Tang Xiongjun has the upper hand."

Liu Yuan thought for a while and asked in a low voice, "Could it be that there is a new breakthrough in the research institute?" ”

Li Er attaches great importance to gunpowder, it is not that there is a situation on the battlefield between the Western Front and Tubo, what can make Li Er so anxious, it is estimated that this gunpowder can arouse his interest the most.

"Wrong, guess"

Liu Yuan guessed a few more things, but Li Eryi vetoed them one by one, and here Liu Yuan had a flash of inspiration in his mind, and suddenly said happily: "Your Majesty, this time you summoned Weichen, but you will be rewarded for meritorious deeds?" ”

"Hmm. Yes, you have set up a lot" Li Er sat on it, nodded and said: "By the way, tell me, what is going on in Mianshan Temple, after all, the fold is not detailed enough, and it is not touching enough, I still listen to you, and by the way, I can also have an understanding of your merits." ”

Not detailed enough?

Liu Yuan was a little speechless, but Li Er was the emperor. This is his territory, let's just say it, anyway, this is also a majestic and embodying his own deeds, to put it more touchingly, maybe the reward will be more generous. Let his heroic and fearless image be deeply implanted in Li Er's heart, so that he can do it. Thought there was something good. It was also convenient for him to think of himself, so Liu Yuan told the cause, process, and result of the incident as it was, of course, it was indispensable to "polish" it a little, and publicize the bravery of himself and the guards.

It was Li Er who listened. A look of emotion also appeared on his face.

After Liu Yuan finished speaking, after Li Er calmed down his emotions, he said slowly: "Then you mean that your credit is to kill dozens of enemies." You should take the lead in capturing Lu Dongzan, right? ”

Wait, this tone is not right, Liu Yuan has a stirring in his heart, with Li Er's stinginess towards himself and his past history of liking to "deduct" his own merits, this "right", there must be nothing good, Liu Yuan must not be cautious when he hears this, thinking that Li Er mistakenly thought that he had falsely reported his military exploits, and immediately reminded carefully: "Your Majesty, according to the convention, the capture of private guards will be counted above its master, although there are many dozens of people, but there are two private guards under Weichen, both of whom are extremely elite, and one of them died in battle." ”

Li Er's eyes widened, and he said angrily: "When I led the army to fight, you were still breastfeeding, don't you know what to do?" Tell me, what reward do you want? “

It's this sentence again, Liu Yuan found that Li Er is getting more and more incomprehensible now, it's good that others have made meritorious contributions, and they should be promoted and rewarded have already made a conclusion, and he always asks this sentence, this amount is difficult to grasp, less loss, more and more said that he is greedy, and now when it comes to rewarding meritorious deeds, Liu Yuan is a little afraid.

"The minister doesn't dare, whatever the emperor rewards, the minister will also want."

"Don't dare?" Li Er's face suddenly sank, and he said coldly, "Why don't you dare?" As a general, he was caught in a trap and didn't know it, and he fell into the trap of the enemy after the worst, and he broke into it more than once, and the princess and her family were involved, so that there were heavy casualties, Changle's personal palace maid died in battle, even Changle was also injured, if it wasn't for the timely arrival of reinforcements, I would have asked the white-headed man to send the black-headed man, you are so bold. ”

Liu Yuan was blindsided all of a sudden, he thought he was here to receive the merit, but he didn't expect that not only did he have no merit, but he also let Li Erhao scold him bitterly, scolding himself for not protecting himself well, scolding himself for getting off the boat halfway, and putting Li Lizhi in danger, not only her personal palace maid died, but Li Lizhen was also slightly injured, princess, it was a golden branch and jade leaf, ordinary people were injured, as long as there was still a breath of air, it was only an injury, but the princess was different, it is estimated that it is a hair loss, and it has become a big or small thing.

It's broken, it is estimated that this bit of work is not enough to "make up".

Fortunately, Liu Yuan's thinking was very active, and he stiffened his hair when he heard the words and said: "Your Majesty, Nalu Dongzan has been planning for a long time, even if he doesn't do it in Mianshan Temple, he will also do it in other places, doesn't the intelligence say that he did something on that boat, and he is glad that the minister set off to change ships, otherwise"

"Then you mean, my princess was injured and suffered for you, and she deserved to be unlucky?"

"No, no, no, Weichen doesn't mean that, don't misunderstand, the emperor" Liu Yuan hurriedly explained: "Your Majesty, what Weichen means is that these uncertain factors are also unpredictable, and besides, it is better to be in Mianshan Temple than in the water, if Lu Dongzan starts in the water, it is estimated that if he is not caught, he will be drowned"

After speaking, Liu Yuan added: "This time it was Weichen's poor protection, so that the princess was frightened and injured, it was all the minister's fault, please punish the emperor, in addition, please ask the emperor to hand over Lu Dongzan to the minister to deal with, and Weichen will use his head to sacrifice the soul of the dead brother in the sky." ”

If it weren't for the sake of the overall situation, in Mianshan Temple, Liu Yuan would have unscrewed off his head, and now when he returned to Chang'an, he naturally wanted to start this matter and sacrifice his spirit in the sky.

"What?" Li Erhu was dumbfounded, stared at Liu Yuan and reprimanded: "It seems like Liu Yuan, I sent a big ship to send you to Yangzhou, not only dispatched the Xuanjia Army, but also used the Yangwei Army to escort you, and it cost a lot all the way, not to mention anything else, the Xuanjia Army alone ran dead and injured dozens of good horses, and the princess was also injured, you are not well protected, you can't afford it, I haven't punished you yet, and now I want to take the great treatise of Tubo to sacrifice and avenge your personal vendetta, don't you think it's too much?" ”

"This" Li Eryi played a scoundrel, and Liu Yuan couldn't help it.

A subtle smile appeared at the corner of Li Er's mouth, and he looked at Liu Yuan and said, "What is this?" Say it. ”

"Emperor" Liu Yuan said seriously while saluting: "Although the blood knife is said to be the minister's personal guard, but he has taught Weichen martial arts, even if he is half a master, I don't know how many times he has saved Weichen's life. ”

"Nonsense, a big Tibetan theory, how can you say kill it."

Liu Yuan confidently analyzed: "Your Majesty, Lu Dongzan is the number one think tank in Tubo, even if you can get some benefits, but let the tiger return to the mountain, there will be endless troubles, this is one of them, Lu Dongzan has been away from Tubo for a long time, and many plots have lost their value, and since the war between the two countries, the personnel of Tubo has undergone several changes, especially the one who guards the border, it is another person in Tubo who talks about Qinling, and he must be very vigilant about this matter, which greatly reduces the value of Lu Dongzan, and besides, the trial has been fast for half a year, and what information there is, all that can be set out has been set out, Staying in prison wasted food, and we also left a dark chess piece in Tubo, the minister believes that at this time, his value is enough to reach Lu Dongzan, this is the second, the most important thing is to kill him, can boost the hearts of the army, can make the dead heroic soul get comfort, but also avenge the princess, count in one fell swoop, please the emperor to complete. ”

"By the way, Your Majesty, we still have gunpowder, this is an artifact of war, with it, are you afraid that Tubo will not be broken, and the slaves will not be destroyed?" In order to increase the bargaining chips, Liu Yuan also moved out the gunpowder he "invented".

"Yes, the analysis is so good that I almost made you move." Li Er shook his head and said.

Liu Yuan almost fainted, what are these words, he was almost moved, doesn't that mean that he hasn't been said to be moved?

Looking at Liu Yuan's somewhat depressed face, Li Er's heart blossomed happily, and he didn't know how to "bully" Liu Yuan, which made him quite mature, that feeling, just like there was a person with very high martial arts and great fame, but someone beat him and defeated him, and the challenger won the honor and fame of the famous person in one fell swoop, just like Liu Yuan defeated Xu Hongji once, and the fame spread all of a sudden, in the same way, Li Er saw that the smart and capable Liu Yuan was obediently pinched in the palm of his hand, and the sense of accomplishment doubled.

"Okay, I'm just joking with Aiqing" Li Er said with a smile: "I have clear rewards and punishments, Aiqing's merits and requirements, I can meet them together, but Aiqing has to do a small thing for me." ”

The original name was changed to "Aiqing" all of a sudden, Liu Yuan suddenly became vigilant, and asked in a low voice: "What does the emperor want his ministers to do?" ”

Li Er said lightly: "Aiqing has good connections, the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs praises you, and he also has Chang'an Bao as a mouthpiece, no matter what you do, you will get twice the result with half the effort, the thing is like this, I see that the cement road of Changluo Expressway is good, then the benefits are not one by one, since there is such a good road, how can Chang'an, the capital city, be missing, I want to hand over this matter to you." ”

Liu Yuan suddenly understood, Li Er turned such a big turn, and spent so much saliva, it turned out that it was for this matter, no wonder he had such a great enthusiasm for Changluo Expressway, and dared to remember this matter early in the morning, this old boy spent so much thought, it will definitely not be as simple as imagined, that is, to find someone to be responsible for the construction, and also to order the Ministry of Engineering to be responsible, and there is no need to find himself.

Suddenly, Liu Yuan felt a stirring in his heart: This Li Er can't be a fan of his own silver and want to slaughter himself like a "fat sheep", right? (To be continued......)
