The courtyard where Li Shimin lives is called Qingxinzhai.

This small courtyard is on the east side of the orchard, surrounded by bamboo trees.

Even on a hot summer day, the courtyard is still a little cool.

For most of the day, Li Shimin spent most of his day in Qingxinzhai reading, practicing calligraphy, and practicing the moves of the horse lance and the stone lock gong.

What Li Shimin is practicing is a sixty-pound stone lock.

He wants to train to seventy pounds in these two years.

On the martial arts training ground of the Li Manor in Hedong, Li Shimin also asked people to set up a rotating arrow target according to the method of Changsun Sheng.

Every afternoon, he took time out to practice mounted archery on the martial arts training ground.

------

In the past, when Li Shimin was not at home, Guanyin did not like to go to the garden very much.

Now Li Shimin lives there.

The garden became a must-visit place for Guanyin every day.

After dealing with the affairs of the inner courtyard, she will go to Qingxinzhai to read and practice calligraphy with Li Shimin.

------

On this day, the two spread a reed mat under the shade of the tree.

A few cases were placed on the reed mat, and a few cases were read.

Guanyin is watching "Three Kingdoms", Liu Bei looks at the thatched house.

She asked Li Shimin, "Did Liu Bei wake up too late?"

Li Shimin heard her suddenly burst out with such a sentence, and he didn't know what she was referring to.

He asked Guanyin, "Why did you wake up too late?"

Guanyin also secretly laughed at her abrupt question, so she explained to Li Shimin,

"I was seeing Liu Bei looking at the thatched house three times, and I felt that he was repeatedly defeated, and I knew Corporal Lixian."

"He didn't seem to think much of the literati and the wise men before."

------

Li Shimin believes that Guanyin did not understand the real reason.

He said with infinite emotion,

"It's not that Liu Bei didn't value literati and sages at first, but that literati and sages are really hard to find."

"Moreover, the criteria for identifying the wise men of letters were different in different periods."

"Governing the world is about following the rules, and in troubled times, it is about strategy and scheming."

"The appointment of scheming ministers in the world is easy to cause chaos, and the appointment of Hongxue Confucianism in troubled times will make people hesitate."

"If Zhuge Kongming hadn't been born at the time of the chaos at the end of the Han Dynasty, even if he was full of talent, he would have been useless for life."

-------

Guanyin listened to Li Shimin's views and gained a deeper understanding of the literati and sages.

Only then did she realize that if a person was born in the wrong era, even if he was full of learning, he would be a useless person after all.

At this time, she suddenly thought of Wang Qi and wanted to ask him about his situation.

"I heard that in the guest house, there lived a person named Wang Jue, who was a well-educated person invited by the uncle."

"I don't know if he can be used? Did Brother Shimin ever have a deep friendship with him?"

Li Shimin put down the book in his hand, looked at Guanyin and said,

"Because I am often absent from the manor, although I know this man, I don't know him well."

------

Guanyin made a suggestion to Li Shimin,

"I also heard that there are other heroes and celebrities in the guest house, do you want to make friends with them?"

"Maybe we'll be able to use them later."

Li Shimin nodded, "I'll also see who the eldest brother has befriended, so I'll go to the guest house recently."

In Li Jiancheng's heart, he always thought that Li Shimin was still a child.

He is nearly ten years older than Li Shimin.

Basically, he doesn't discuss anything with Li Shimin, Li Xuanba, and Li Yuanji, and he is generally in charge of everything.

When Li Yuan was not at home, the affairs of the Tang State Mansion were dominated by Li Jiancheng.

Like making friends with celebrities and recruiting heroes, Li Jiancheng rarely let Li Shimin participate.

------

Li Jiancheng raised Wang Qi, Yang Wengan, Er Zhusheng, Qiao Gongshan and others in the manor.

They don't usually have much to do.

Yang Wengan, Er Zhusheng, and Qiao Gongshan also helped Zhuang Shang train Zhuang Ding and teach them some superficial martial arts.

Wang Qi talked with Li Jiancheng about the past and the present, and talked about the current situation and major events in the world.

Li Jiancheng respected Wang Jue very much and asked for his opinion on everything.

------

July is the hottest time of the year.

The sun is scorching, and the sun is like fire.

In addition to knowing that the "squeak" chirps non-stop.

The birds all stopped singing and found a place to hide from the sun.

Cooling off is people's first choice.

There is nothing particularly important, and no one wants to walk outside under the scorching sun.

------

Li Jiancheng, Yang Wengan, Er Zhusheng, Qiao Gongshan and others had nothing to do, so they went to the courtyard where Wang Qi lived to talk.

Spread a large reed mat under the shade of a tree in the courtyard.

Everyone sat on it and drank the soup to relieve the heat while gently shaking the fans in their hands.

Although the gauze clothes were thin, Er Zhusheng and Qiao Gongshan still thought that they were a little redundant.

The two of them untied their fronts, opened their breasts, and kept squeezing the fan in their hands.

People who read books are relatively gentle.

Li Jiancheng, Wang Qi, and Yang Wengan were neatly dressed and their fans shook gently.

Wang Qi is still holding a feather fan in his hand.

Several people also did not have a fixed theme, and there were no sentences to chat.

------

Li Shimin was going to live in the village this time, and he felt the need to meet with a few people in the guest house.

Such weather is also not suitable for martial arts training.

After lunch, Li Shimin came to the guest house alone.

The doorman in Wang Qi's courtyard saw that it was Erlangjun Li Shimin,

He didn't report it, so he led Li Shimin to the backyard.

When several people in the guest house saw Li Shimin coming, they all called him a rare guest.

Li Shimin saw that the eldest brother was also there, so he saluted everyone.

Only Wang Jue stood up and returned the salute.

The other people greeted Li Shimin with a smile.

------

Yang Wengan moved his body to the side, making room for Li Shimin to sit beside Li Jiancheng.

When Li Shimin sat down, the maid poured him a soup to relieve the heat.

Li Shimin took it with one hand and put it beside him.

Wang Qi asked Li Shimin with a smile,

"I heard that Erlangjun is studying in the garden, how can he have time to come to the guest house today?"

Li Shimin smiled and found a reason, and complained about the weather,

"It's so hot, where do you have the heart to study, it's good not to be stunned by the heat."

"So I'm here to join in with you."

Wang Qi echoed casually, "Also, this day is really hot."

"In another half a month, when autumn stands, it may be cooler."

-----

Li Shimin looked at the crowd and saw that they were sitting or lying, lazy and lazy.

He smiled and asked, "What are you talking about?"

Yang Wengan slowly shook his fan and continued:

"There is no fixed rule for the east and west."

Wang Jue knew that Li Shimin had just returned from Zhuozhou, so he talked about the emperor's conquest of Liao.

He asked Li Shimin,

"Erlangjun has just returned from Zhuozhou, what do you think will happen in the Liaodong battle this time?"

------

Li Shimin thought for a while and replied:

"When I returned, the emperor had just gone to Liaodong."

"Later, Yang Xuangan's rebellion occurred, and now the war in Liaodong may have ceased."

Yang Wengan believes that Yang Guang will not stop the war in Liaodong,

"In recent years, there has been chaos in various places, and tens of thousands of people have gathered to make trouble in many places."

"Under these circumstances, the emperor still issued an edict at the beginning of the year to conquer Liaodong again."

"How could he give up the expedition to Liao because of one more Yang Xuangan?"

------

Li Shimin has a different view from Yang Wengan, he thinks

"In recent years, people have gathered in various places to become chaotic, mostly in places far away from Chang'an and Luoyang."

"Most of them are raiding houses and robbing houses, and few thieves are attacking cities and plundering land."

"They're just grass cobs who rebel for survival, and they can't make a big deal."

"Yang Xuangan is different, he has a lot of contacts with important ministers in the court, and the place where he raised troops is in the heart of the imperial power."

"Once the eastern and western capitals are captured, all the ministers and their families are here, and the people of Liaodong who accompany the Liao expedition are almost likely to mutiny."

"Therefore, the chaos in various places is a disease of scabies, and Yang Xuangan's raising of troops is a problem for his henchmen."

"The emperor will stop the war in Liaodong and return to the army to save the east and west capitals."

------

Wang Jue watched Li Shimin, who was only a teenager, talking eloquently, and couldn't help but be secretly surprised in his heart.

He had also talked about the Liaodong War with Li Jiancheng and others before.

The views of Li Jiancheng and others are not as profound as Li Shimin's.

He looked at Li Shimin and saw Li Shimin sitting there solemnly and calmly, with incisive insights.

Where is this like an underage child?

Wang Jue secretly compared him with Li Jiancheng in his heart.

------

Li Jiancheng looks more loyal and old, and his face is kind and tolerant.

Li Shimin looks heroic and wise, calm and resolute.

After some comparison, Wang Qi couldn't help but feel a trace of worry in his heart.

He was wondering if this Li Shimin would threaten Li Jiancheng's position in the future.

But on second thought, this is not very likely.

After all, Li Shimin is much younger than Li Jiancheng, even if it is another ten years, he will only be twenty-four or five years old.

By that time, Li Jiancheng was already full-fledged, and Li Shimin basically had no possibility of challenging Li Jiancheng.

------

Wang Qi wanted to observe Li Shimin again, and he praised Li Shimin,

"Erlangjun is really extraordinary, and his reasoning and analysis of the situation are reasonable and reasonable."

Li Shimin humbly said to himself: "Sir, where can you say that the insights are extraordinary, Shimin is just speculating on the facts."

Wang Jue took advantage of the situation to ask Li Shimin,

"Erlangjun thinks that this time Yang Xuangan raised troops to rebel is a victory or defeat?"

------

Li Shimin didn't expect that Wang Jue was testing him.

He didn't have the slightest warning, thought about it in his heart, and continued to analyze,

"Yang Xuangan raised troops in the Central Plains, there was no danger to defend, and there was no solid foundation."

"After the army is raised, it should not be a war, but should take advantage of the emptiness of Chang'an, take the imperial capital directly, keep the letter valley, and take Tongguan."

"Now the army is besieging Luoyang, facing the fortified city, and there is no danger for him."

"Once the imperial reinforcements arrive, this newly assembled rabble will surely collapse."

He finally added, "As long as the emperor temporarily rests the battle of Liaodong and returns to the rescue, Yang Xuangan will be defeated."

------

After listening to Li Shimin's analysis of Yang Xuangan's troops, Wang Jue no longer dared to underestimate Li Shimin.

He has deeply felt that Li Shimin will be a huge threat to Li Jiancheng in the future.

When Wang Jue was young, he was greatly influenced by his uncle Wang Jun.

Wang Jun once supported the late crown prince Yang Yong.

After Yang Yong was deposed, Wang Gong was reused by Yang Liang, the king of Han, to join the army as a counselor, participate in the rebellion, and commit suicide after the defeat.

Wang Jue was implicated because of Wang Gong and had to flee in all directions.

Therefore, he hated Yang Guang and Yang Xuangan's father, Yang Su.

------

Wang Qi believes that the Sui Dynasty has only come to this day, and Emperor Wen of Sui Yang Jian is the root cause of all chaos.

Now, he sees that Li Shimin is talented and heroic.

Wang Qi couldn't help but worry about whether the Li family would follow the same path in the future.

It would be better if Li Yuan didn't fight for the world, and Li Shimin could start his own career with his own ability.

If Li Yuan won the world, he would choose a son as the prince.

At that time, Li Shimin will be a strong competitor to Li Jiancheng.

-------

Wang Jue had his own thoughts in his heart, he shook the feather fan lightly, and looked at Li Shimin with a smile,

"Erlangjun's intelligence is not ordinary people, and the opinions he talks about are like climbing high and looking far, and everything is in full view."

"It's really a rare talent, and in the future, I will definitely become your father and brother, the right-hand man who will create a foundation."

Wang Jue's words looked like he was praising Li Shimin.

In fact, he had ulterior motives.
