Chapter 432: The Expectations of All
When Li Xiang walked out of the palace, this news also quickly spread throughout Chang'an City, not only the dignitaries and dignitaries knew the news, including some peddlers and pawns, they also knew that Chang'an City had changed today.
"Speaking of which, His Royal Highness King Wu is not bad, and his reputation among our people is also very good, but if I lead an army of 200,000, I always feel a little unsteady in my heart, my two boys are still in the army, if I can't come back, what will I do with this old bone?"
Before the old man Liu, who sold vegetables, stretched his wrinkles in the market, the things in the court also spread to the market, and His Royal Highness King Wu had a good reputation, but if it was said that he led troops to fight, many people still couldn't believe it.
"I said old man Liu, you can put your heart in your stomach now, our eldest grandson, my highness, I'm used to it, now it's His Royal Highness the grandson, it's a good hand in the war, Tuyuhun has become our vassal state, I heard that this trip to Tubo turned the whole Tubo upside down, this ability is not common people, to say a taboo, those princes are okay?"
The butcher of the king, who was handling the meat, said in a low voice, the common people are talking about the prince of the court, this is not a trivial matter, of course, everyone is an acquaintance, it is impossible to go to the government to denounce, there is a reason why he is so happy, his younger brother is also in the army outside the city, and he has no bottom with His Royal Highness King Wu.
"Who's to say it isn't? It's strange to say, do you think we people are biased? No matter what His Royal Highness Taisun does, we all think we will be able to do it, but if someone else does this, this heart is always up and down. ”
A woman passing by also heard this sentence, you must know that women don't care much about political things, but many things about Li Xiang have been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, for example, because of the arrival of a large amount of grain in the grain village, the price of grain in Chang'an City has risen by half some time ago, but now it is back to normal.
The price of food is most visible when there is a war, and these women don't care who is the general, they know that the price of food has come down, and we can buy more things with the same money.
Knowing that this matter had something to do with Li Xiang, I believed in Li Xiang even more.
"I heard my cousin in the yamen say, it seems that this is called personal confidence, that is to say, we have confidence in His Royal Highness Taisun, the same thing, if others want to do it, we will be worried, but if it is put on His Royal Highness Taisun, this matter will be flat."
After Butcher Wang said this, the people around him nodded, although they had no culture, but after Butcher Wang's explanation, they found that it was indeed the same thing, although His Royal Highness Taisun had not risen for a long time, but in the hearts of the people of Chang'an City, it was synonymous with reliability.
Just when the common people were talking about this matter, the dignitaries and nobles of Chang'an City were not idle, and some friends who were close to each other began to find opportunities to get together, and they were also discussing this matter, of course, those people around Li Xiang were the happiest, and with this expedition to Goryeo, maybe many people could take off again.
Cheng Fu
"This hasn't decided the final situation yet, one of you two is the eldest brother, the other is the second uncle, and you have all gone to the street to drink, don't you know to keep a low profile?"
Cheng Biting Jin is holding a big stick in his hand, Cheng Chumo and Cheng Chuliang are honestly kneeling here, since they knew that Li Xiang was going to be the generalissimo of the expedition to the east, these two people are also happy, others can not take it, but can we not take it?
According to Cheng Chuliang, I am his second brother-in-law, and there is no one closer to him in the entire Chang'an City, my own sister is married to him, why don't you take me on the expedition?
The two sons glanced at each other, and they didn't know what to say, your old man only allowed the governor to set fires, and the people were not allowed to light the lamps.
This body must have come back from drinking somewhere else, and when he got home, he didn't dare to lie, so he called the two sons back.
After scolding for a while, Cheng Yanjin also felt a little tired, and suddenly remembered to get down to business.
"No one from the East Palace?"
As soon as Cheng Biting Jin said this, the two brothers also felt strange, and they both said that they were brothers in battle, and now Li Xiang is already the generalissimo of the Eastern Expedition, and the two of us should go out with the army, why haven't we sent anyone yet?
"Could it be that things have changed? Don't be spared, right? ”
As soon as Cheng Chuliang finished speaking, he immediately felt the murderous eyes of his father and brother, and he himself quickly shook his head, this situation is impossible, there are several people who can be used by the emperor, if Li Xiang doesn't go, there is really no one in the imperial family.
"This is wrong, it has been several hours, it is supposed to be a letter to us, it is impossible for the old man to leave Chang'an City, you two brothers should have to follow, this is a great opportunity."
Cheng Yanjin said to himself, everyone knows that this time is the time to make political achievements, if you don't go, it will not be easy to find such an opportunity in the future, Cheng Chumo and Cheng Chuliang are not slow to rise, but then again, who will dislike their own opportunities?
Just when the father and son were wondering, Qian Ping, the chief eunuch of the East Palace, came in and sent Li Xiang's handwritten letter.
"Father, what is written in this letter? Is it for me and my eldest brother to hurry out of the city to reorganize the army? ”
Cheng Chuliang was in a hurry next to him, but he also knew Cheng Jin's rules.
Cheng Chumo also nodded beside him, the three armies have been trained by His Royal Highness King Wu, and even installed a lot of people, if Li Xiang wants to rectify these people, he must rely on the talents under his own hands, people like Niu Jinda and Su Dingfang don't know our brother-in-law, if you rely on them, you will definitely be uncomfortable commanding on the battlefield.
"You two don't have to be busy, this time the Eastern Expedition to Goguryeo, the two of you have no chance to go to the battlefield, this letter is very clear, according to the emperor's original arrangement, Niu Jinda and Su Dingfang went out with the army, and the other is Qin Huaiyu and Fang Yiai, the two of you stay in the capital."
After Cheng Yanjin's words were finished, the two brothers were so shocked that their eyes were about to fall out, how was this arranged? Is there anyone more trustworthy on the battlefield than our two brothers? Cheng Chumo couldn't believe it, and hurriedly took the letter in Cheng Yanjin's hand, which was clearly written in black and white, and the Cheng brothers stayed in the capital......
