Chapter 143 Three Years

Because of Zhang Taishu, Liu Che did not place any eyeliner in Huo Quai's army during the battle to subdue Hexi this time, but the result disappointed him.

Jiang Yuan said before, "It is okay to follow General Wei", do you know what this means?

Jiang Yuan meant that the number of eyeliners around Huo Quzhi could be maintained at the same level as Wei Qing.

When that accurate word was spoken, at this moment, Zhang Taishu's heartfelt exhortations seemed to disappear from Liu Che's mind, and Huo Quai, who was seriously injured in the first battle of Hexi, and Huo Quai, who was lying on the sickbed and almost died, also disappeared.

Huo Quai's illness in Liu Che's heart was just the one who confronted him in the court that day, the one who said that he would be outside, the king's order was not affected, the one who had great prestige, and the one who had reached the point where he could break the ancestral system and tear the soil and seal the king.

Huo Quzhi's loyalty to the Great Han, Liu Che is aware, but he will not let anyone be qualified to threaten his throne!

Not even if that person is his own son!

Huo Quai's credit was too great, at the end of the first battle of Hexi, Liu Che had some precautions against him, but at that time, because of the tragic situation of the return of the army, and Zhang Taishu's heartfelt words, coupled with the young general who fainted on the bed and could die at any time, Liu Che chose to be relieved and chose to trust.

But now, when the prestige and ability of a courtier are enough to threaten Liu Che's imperial power, he subconsciously forgets the great military exploits that Huo Qubing has made for him in the past, forgets Huo Quzhi's brave heart, and some are just precautions.

After all, Huo Quai's illness is too dazzling, and his personality is too impulsive, if he can not kill the evil king, if his temper can be a little better, he knows that he is dormant, maybe Liu Che will continue to trust him.

It's a pity that there aren't so many ifs in this world.

On the second day after the army returned to the court, Huo Quzhi gave Liu Che a letter of recital, what did he say? What else can it be, the champion Hou can not care about his own merits, but he can't help but seek justice for the soldiers under his command.

The military exploits of the servants are not inferior to Zhao Ponu at all, why do they get so few rewards? Is it because they are Huns?

No! This is absolutely not good, no matter who they are, I only know that they have all shed blood for the Han, and they have all made war exploits for the Han!

I'm going to let them get what they deserve, and no one wants to take what is rightfully theirs.

Huo Quai's recital was written very intensely, and Liu Che scolded the people for a whole day after reading his recital, because in Huo Quai's recital, he actually openly reprimanded Liu Che, and he dared to scold Liu Che for not rewarding and punishing.

Huo Quzhi just wanted to seek justice for his brothers, but this piece of music had other meanings in Liu Che's opinion.

No rewards and punishments? Isn't this just saying that he didn't give him the reward that the champion hou deserves? That's why he took the opportunity to seek justice for his subordinates, and by the way, told himself that you Liu Che not only rewarded and punished Gao Zhifu, but also treated me Huo Quai!

Hehe, it can be said that the speaker has no intention of listening, Huo Quzhi is really just acting for the servant to be unfair, and he doesn't care about those false names at all.

Political idiot, political idiot, Liu Che is indeed your uncle-in-law, but more than that, he is the emperor of the Han Dynasty.

Huo Quai, how can you deal with Liu Che in the same way as you treat your uncle or Huang Xiaowei?

Speak bluntly, what do you say, well, when treating Huang Xiaowei and Wei Qing, you can do this, that's because they all treat you as their relatives, and they love you very much, so they won't care what you say, even if you scold them, Wei Qing at most just said that you don't know how to be polite, Huang Xiaowei simply touched your head and said that you kid is tight again.

But Liu Che is not your relative.

In fact, in front of the throne, both biological father and son can turn against each other, not to mention you, a general with the status of a relative and a heavy army.

In addition, Liu Che also saw other things in Huo Quai's recital, such as buying people's hearts, such as supporting the army and respecting himself!

once said that there was a list in Liu Che's heart, a list that he could trust without reservation, there used to be a lot of people on that list, but not long ago, only Huo Qubing was left, and now, that list has become a blank again.

Do you think that Liu Che crossed Huo Qubing off the list and sent someone to monitor him, just because he killed the evil king, or openly contradicted Liu Che in the court?

No, the contradiction between them is actually deeper, it doesn't matter if the evil king dies or not, Huo Quai's illness or not, the contradiction between them is the right and the throne!

Even if one of them never had the idea of rebellion, he could even die for the Han. But the other, the other person sitting on the throne doesn't want to care about this, he only knows that your existence threatens him, threatens his throne.

That's enough.

But fortunately, although the latter does not trust the former wholeheartedly, the latter is not a fool, otherwise he would not be Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

What's more, there is still room for maneuver between the two, as long as Huo Qubing can restrain himself a little, as long as he can be less strong, as long as his prestige can gradually weaken, Liu Che will not do anything to him, and will trust him as always, after all, the Huns have not been destroyed, Liu Che still needs Huo Qubing to continue to charge for himself.

Can...... Convergence? Not strong? Is that still Huo Qu's disease?

Liu Yulan, Princess Pingyin, perhaps, at the critical moment, only she can pull Ho to get sick.

Compared with the contradiction that suddenly erupted between Ru Huo Qubing and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, although it was intense, there was still room for maneuver, and there was one side...... But there is no longer any room for manoeuvre.

.......

Datang.

In 683 AD, Tang Gaozong Li Xian died in Zhenguan Hall at the age of fifty-five.

Gaozong died, and the Tang Dynasty was in mourning.

Speaking from the heart, Li Zhi may be a little weak, not the style of his father, but he can be regarded as a qualified king, relying on the foundation laid by the former emperor Li Shimin, Li Zhi naturally made a contribution during his reign, whether it is political, economic, military or diplomatic, the Tang Dynasty has made good achievements.

Of course, if you don't count Huang Xiaowei and their troops besieging Chang'an, Li Zhi can be called half of the Ming monarch, but his cowardice and indecision are indisputable facts, and Wu Zetian is the best evidence.

When Li Zhi was in his later years, almost all the government of the Tang Dynasty was controlled by Wu Zetian alone, and what Wu Zetian did later also made Li Zhi's body have an unwashable stain.

On the night before Li Zhi's death, he first called Wu Zetian and the crown prince Li Xian on the sickbed of Zhenguan Palace, and when he was dying, Li Zhi took Wu Zetian's hand heavily and told Wu Zetian that after he left, you must assist the prince well.

Wu Zetian smiled...... Ah no, it was with tears in his eyes that he agreed to Li Zhi, Your Majesty can rest assured, and the concubine will live up to Your Majesty's entrustment.

Li Xian also hurriedly rehearsed in advance, crying sadly, shouting vigorously that his father should not leave, and his sons and daughters did not want the throne, but wanted their father.

Li Zhi'an calmed a few words, and let their mother and son retreat, and then summoned the important ministers in the court to say goodbye, this is all conventional, generally before the old emperor dies, he must string together with the ministers under his hands, so that they can assist the prince well in the future, if the prince does something wrong, you must bring it up, and strive to make the Tang Dynasty go to the next level.

The courtiers also cried tears one by one, and told Li Zhi, Your Majesty, you can rest assured, the old ministers will definitely assist His Royal Highness the Crown Prince well.

After talking to the important ministers, Li Zhi summoned his other sons and told them that although you cannot inherit the throne, the world of the Tang Dynasty is the descendants of the Li family after all, and you must assist your imperial brothers.

It didn't take long for Li Zhi to see almost everyone he should see, but there was still one person he hadn't seen, until the last prince left the Zhenguan Palace, and Huang Xiaowei finally walked in.

In any case, Li Zhi can be regarded as an old man of Huang Xiaowei, so it makes sense that he should come to send him off, and send this unlucky emperor who has been bullied by himself for more than ten years.

......

Li Zhi was dying at this time, but probably because of the return to light, he didn't look so weak lying on the sickbed, and he didn't even reach the point where he couldn't even speak, but his face was still very red.

Seeing Huang Xiaowei walking into the Zhenguan Palace, Li Zhi actually sat up from the sickbed, Huang Xiaowei was directly stunned, and then shouted with a mouthful, "Can you still move?" ”

Li Zhi leaned on the edge of the sickbed, Liu Hong's father-in-law hurriedly took a cushion for Li Zhi to lean on, hearing Huang Xiaowei's incoherent words, Li Zhi couldn't help but show a wry smile, and secretly said in his heart, where is this person powerful, there is no doubt that he has a market hooligan on weekdays, how can he have so much power and such a big opportunity? Alas...... This person is really different from human life.

Li Zhi smiled bitterly and said, "Teacher, the student's time is running out, this is probably a return to the light." ”

Huang Xiaowei nodded, sat directly on the edge of Li Zhi's bed, and looked at the old emperor in front of him, who had little life, Huang Xiaowei was speechless and said, "You are about to pass, what do you have to say to me?" ”

Li Zhi shook his head and said with a smile: "Teacher, these days, students often think of those people and things in the past, today when they see the teacher, the students can't help but sigh in their hearts, you and I met fifteen years ago, but now I am too old, but you are still so young, students know that you must not be an ordinary person." ”

Huang Xiaowei couldn't stand Li Zhi's words, waved his hand and said, "If you have something to say, don't be so vain and bubbling." ”

Li Zhi smiled awkwardly, and then said: "Since the teacher has said so, then the student is not polite, teacher, the student knows that you are not an ordinary person, three years ago, the student wanted you to take care of Datang after I left, and the teacher agreed at that time, but the student still wants to ask, did the promise of the year count?" ”

Huang Xiaowei didn't care about anything else in Li Zhi's words, but said, "Three years ago? Damn, my son just passed 100 days last month, and you have passed these three years in the past four months. ”
