Chapter 34: Keep an eye on this person
"Actually, Fang Qiao also said before that His Highness was in a bit of a hurry to enter the city!" Du Ruhui looked at Li Shimin and continued.
"What's the use of saying that this is the end of the matter?" In fact, at that time, Li Shimin entered the city so proudly to put pressure on Li Yuan and Li Jiancheng, and Fang Xuanling stopped Li Shimin and said, "This matter is not appropriate", but unfortunately Li Shimin didn't listen to it at that time, but now it has become a trouble, of course, it is not a big trouble, but Li Yuan beat Li Shimin for a while.
"Actually, according to what the minister has seen, this incident of Jieli Khan is not a big deal, but it is Princess Pingyang's side, Your Highness must hurry up!" Now Li Shimin's subordinates can say that "strategists are like rain, fierce generals are like clouds", there are many talents, and it is of course impossible to eliminate Jieli Khan, but if you want to stop Jieli Khan, it is as easy as hand, so as long as Li Shimin sends troops to Qinzhou, he is already invincible.
Why did Du Ruhui mention Pingyang Princess Li Xiuning, it is not because Li Tangxia has three points of soldiers and horses now, the first is naturally Li Yuan and the crown prince Li Jiancheng who sit in the imperial capital Chang'an, the second is Li Shimin's Tiance General's Mansion, and the third is Pingyang Princess Li Xiuning.
In these three points of soldiers and horses, Li Xiuning can be said to be the most powerful now, after all, when Li Yuan raised troops in Jinyang, Li Xiuning already had tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, not to mention, Li Yuan was able to enter Chang'an and ascend the throne, which is also Li Xiuning's greatest contribution, because Chang'an City was fought down by Li Xiuning.
If it weren't for the fact that Li Xiuning is daughter, I'm afraid that this prince wouldn't have been able to fight with Li Jiancheng, and Li Xiuning would have won it justifiably.
As for the dispute between Li Shimin and Li Jiancheng for the crown prince, don't look at the fact that Li Jiancheng wants to gain prestige in the army, and Li Shimin wants to dig up the family relationship, the most important thing is to get Li Xiuning's support, no matter which one of them Li Xiuning supports, then the first condition is not important at all, as long as Li Xiuning says: "The palace supports Li Jiancheng" or "The palace supports Li Shimin", then two-thirds or even three-quarters of the entire Li Tang world will fall into the hands of this person.
Du Ruhui mentioned Li Xiuning, naturally to remind Li Shimin that he must have a good relationship with Li Xiuning, although for the time being, Li Xiuning seems to be not helping each other, after all, both of them are his brothers (according to the author's information, Li Xiuning should have been 23-24 years old when he died, and Li Shimin was 25 years old when he was in the fifth year of Wude, and Li Jiancheng was 33 years old at this time), this palm and back of his hand are all meat, Li Xiuning naturally can't express his position casually, not to mention that with Li Xiuning's mind, how can he not see the importance of his position, This makes it even more impossible for Li Xiuning to express his position casually.
And Du Ruhui mentioned Li Xiuning to remind Li Shimin that even if he couldn't prompt Li Xiuning to express his support for him for a while, he had to ensure that Li Xiuning couldn't support Li Jiancheng, that is, to maintain his state, he couldn't offend Li Xiuning.
"Xiuning's matter, Lone naturally understands!" Of course, Li Shimin knew the importance of Li Xiuning, looked at Du Ruhui and said, "Anyway, the day before yesterday, a report came out, saying that Xiuning had obtained a great talent, this person is called Lu Chen, and his identity is the heir of the Mo family, and he can instantly take people's lives from a dozen zhang away with a mechanical technique, Keming, what do you think about this matter?" ”
"This person can't see through this person!" Du Ruhui shook his head directly, "According to the report, this person has strange clothes and hair accessories, and he does not look like a person from Middle-earth, but his appearance can be sure that he is the same as a person from Middle-earth, as for the heirs of the Mo family, as far as the ministers know, the Mo family has been missing for a hundred years, and this person suddenly appeared, carrying such a sharp weapon, I don't know if it is a blessing or a curse!" ”
"It doesn't matter if it's a blessing or a curse, just kill him!" Wei Chi Jingde, who looked similar to the Black Iron Tower, who was sitting on the side, directly said angrily, "Since I can't know where this person came from, I will directly slash it, and I will kill it a hundred!" ”
"Nonsense!" Qin Qiong, who was sitting next to Yu Chi Jingde, glared at Yu Chi Jingde directly, "This person is now serving as a military advisor under Princess Pingyang, and you killed other people's military advisors, this is not only offending Her Royal Highness the Princess, but also pushing Her Royal Highness the Princess directly to the side of the prince!" Qin Qiong directly scolded Wei Chi Jingde.
"Old Hei, I'll just say that your head is not bright!" Cheng Yanjin on the side also stroked his beard and looked at Yu Chi Jingde with a wicked smile.
"You..."Yu Chi Jingde was counted down by Qin Qiong, and was also seen by Cheng Yanjin laughing, and suddenly his black face became darker and darker, like the bottom of the pot.
"Keep an eye on this person!" For Lu Chen, although Li Shimin also wants to recruit Lu Chen, no matter what else, Lu Chen's tricks are enough to make Li Shimin pay attention to it, but unfortunately Lu Chen is now Li Xiuning's person, and Li Shimin can only cry out in vain.
The same words also came from Li Jiancheng's mouth, and the report that Li Jiancheng got on this side was more detailed than Li Shimin's side, and there was even the song "Go Immediately" made by Lu Chen for Li Xiuning, but now that Lu Chen is under Li Xiuning, if he wants to solicit, he will probably only offend Li Xiuning, so he just ordered people to continue to keep an eye on Lu Chen's every move.
Lu Chen naturally didn't know that he had fallen into the eyes of Li Shimin and Li Jiancheng, and it wasn't until the sun was set that Lu Chen got up from the bed, stretched his waist, and walked out of the door.
Liu Laosan had been sitting in the courtyard waiting, and when he saw Lu Chen coming out, he hurriedly came to Lu Chen with the "hot pot" placed at his feet.
"My lord, do you think it works?" Liu Laosan pinned the hot pot with both hands, allowing Lu Chen to look at it.
"Well done!" Although it is different from the bright copper hot pot in later generations, it was built according to Lu Chen's drawings.
"Dog, bring a square table!" Lu Chen beckoned Liu Jing to bring a square table over.
Soon, Liu Jing and Fang Qi brought a square table over and placed it on the left side of the courtyard, and the hot pot was placed on the table by Lu Chen, looking at the copper hot pot, thinking that he would be able to eat hot pot in this Tang Dynasty for a while, Lu Chen couldn't help but swallow his saliva.
"Where's the charcoal?" Lu Chen turned his head and asked Liu Laosan, who had previously instructed Liu Laosan to bring some charcoal back while making a hot pot.
"What about this! What about this! As soon as Lu Chen's words fell, Fang Qi came over with a box of charcoal as if offering a treasure.
"If you want to eat hot pot, you have to burn charcoal first, come, Lao Fang, I'll teach you charcoal!" Lu Chen smiled and dragged Fang Qi aside, found a clay pot, first put some flammable materials such as down and branches to ignite, and then put a few pieces of charcoal in the clay pot.
Fang Qi squatted next to Lu Chen and watched, "Old Fang, these charcoals will be red after a while, just put them under the hot pot, you look at some charcoal!" Lu Chen admonished, got up and left, Fang Qi could only honestly squat there and guard the charcoal, because the charcoal was not easy to smolder at first, so Fang Qi also got a fan from Lu Chen, so he fanned it twice from time to time.
