Chapter 603: I Have an Old Friend......
Penal Department, Heavenly Prison.
The cell is still dark, but now the design has been changed, and the ventilation is not bad, at least it is not so damp.
Squeak.
The cell door was opened.
"I've seen Hou Gong, I'm Yang Qi, the imperial doctor who was on duty in the prison this month."
Yang Qi introduced himself to the criminal in front of him,
"For a routine check-up, please stretch out your hand."
The condemned prisoners in the prison have the opportunity to check their physical condition once a month.
In a sense, these dogs are much more comfortable than ordinary people!
Ordinary people don't have the spare money to go to Lang Zhong for examinations all day long, even if they are sick, they can endure it, and often minor illnesses become major illnesses.
However, Yang Qi also knew that the reason why the criminals in the prison could have such treatment was actually due to the people in front of them.
"Okay."
Hou Junji raised his head slightly and handed over the hand that was locked with the chain.
Yang Qi put his finger on Hou Junji's pulse, looking serious.
A moment later.
"Hou Gong's pulse is stable and powerful, and his body is quite tough."
Yang Qi smiled and groaned,
"The five organs are in harmony, and there is no disease."
"Is there anything wrong with you? Tell me about it. ”
Hou Junji grinned.
"If I feel uncomfortable, can I cure it?"
He asked.
Yang Qi raised his eyebrows, glanced left and right, and said in a low voice:
"Hou Gong."
"Tuyuhun invaded Liangzhou again, His Majesty was furious, and decided to raise an army of 100,000 people, worship Li Jing as the general manager of the march, and conquer the country of the Murong clan!"
"Now, the grain and grass have begun to be raised, and the soldiers and horses have also begun to be mobilized!"
"This one has to be the biggest battle in my Tang Dynasty after the Battle to Exterminate the Turks!"
A gleam flashed in Hou Junji's eyes.
"Conquer Tuyuhun! If I could go...... That's it. ”
He muttered in a low voice,
"It's a pity that Xu Fenglei is still in the middle of the court...... Alas! ”
Hou Junji understood.
As long as Xu Fenglei is in the middle of the court, he will have no chance to turn over!
The only thing that can be hoped for is that Xu Fenglei has a wild temperament, and his words and deeds have angered the emperor and been degraded by the emperor, so that he will have a chance!
But this glimmer of opportunity, he also knows that it is like a dream bubble, and it cannot be sought.
"Taishi is no longer in the court, he went to Jiuzhi Mountain to repair the emperor's mausoleum!"
Yang Qi lowered his voice again and leaned into Hou Junji's ear to instruct.
Hou Junji: "!! ”
"What?!"
His heart throbbed violently, and he couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart, so much so that he lost his voice a little when he spoke.
"Make it clear! What's going on! ”
Yang Qi did not hesitate and briefly recounted the ins and outs of the matter.
"It all has to come out, it's just that there was a misunderstanding between Your Majesty and the Taishi, and now Your Majesty regrets wanting to recall the Taishi, but the Taishi refuses to come back."
He said in a deep voice,
"So, that's what we're in."
"Speaking of which, this Taishi is really arrogant, the emperor has gone back on his word and lowered his posture, but he still refuses to go down this step."
"It's the only one who can do this as a courtier."
Click!
Hou Junji pinched the straw pole, and his eyes were shining!
"Here's my chance, here's my once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"
He was short of breath, tried his best to suppress his emotions, grabbed Yang Qi's hand, and pleaded,
"Imperial Physician Yang, Imperial Physician Yang!"
"I beg you to help me, I beg you to help me!"
"If I can turn over, I will repay the favor a hundredfold!"
Yang Qi smiled helplessly.
"Hou Gong, we are also old acquaintances, so we don't have to be so polite when we speak."
He answered,
"You know, I'm just a doctor, I can only do my best."
"If you have any ideas, just say that I can help, but if I can't, don't blame me."
Hou Junji nodded again and again!
"That's nature, that's nature! I won't embarrass you! ”
He said excitedly,
"Just two things!"
"One, go get me a piece of cloth, and give me a big needle, it's thick enough!"
"Second, if you go and tell Your Majesty, you will say that Hou Junji is dying, and I ask to see Your Majesty for the last time!"
"You can do these two things, right?"
Yang Qi was stunned.
Running out?
Isn't this alive! At least another twenty years to live!
But he reacted immediately.
This Hou Gong, I'm afraid that he wants to take advantage of the absence of the Taishi to use a bitter trick on the emperor!
But...... Can the Bitter Meat Trick Really Work?
After thinking about this, Hou Junji thought that he had hesitated, and hurriedly said:
"Please, please! Help me, just help me this time! ”
"As long as Your Majesty comes, I will be sure to get out! When the time comes, the first thing I'll do when I go out is to send you a mansion! ”
"I still have some secret property in Chang'an, and I will share half of it with you when the time comes!"
"Just ask for your help!"
"Please! Please! ”
Bang bang bang!
As he spoke, Hou Junji actually knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Yang Qi!
"Ouch Hou Gong, this ...... This is unacceptable! ”
He hurriedly helped Hou Junji up, and said continuously,
"I'll help, I'll help you!"
"As for mansions or something...... In fact, it doesn't matter, the main thing is that we have known each other for so many years, and between friends, we must be helping! ”
said so, but Yang Qi's heart was speeding up.
Who would have thought that after hesitating for so long, he would be able to exchange for a mansion!
Now the housing prices in Chang'an are really expensive!
Foreign officials who come to Chang'an to take office, unless they are rewarded by the emperor, are basically rented houses! Can't afford it at all!
Not to mention a little doctor like him, who has struggled for most of his life, and the whole family is still crowded into the old and dilapidated.
To have a house in Chang'an is really a dream thing!
"Don't worry, I will give it to you, and I'll give it to you when I go out!"
Hou Junji repeatedly promised,
"As long as you help me, we are brothers, closer than brothers!"
"When the time comes, I will turn over, and I will definitely let you be the director of the Tai Hospital! If you just want to move to another part of the court, I will help too!" ”
"You can go out and inquire, how is my Hou Junji to my brother and my subordinates!"
Yang Qi took a deep breath and pressed the excitement in his heart.
"Okay, I'll go tell Your Majesty!"
He got up and said,
"I'll pick up the silver needle and white cloth now, and I'll deliver them right away."
"Hou Gong, I believe you will definitely be able to make a comeback!"
Hou Junji nodded heavily.
"Thanks, brother!"
He arched his hand towards Yang Qi and pursed his lips, his expression sincere.
Squeak!
The cell door opened, and Yang Qi walked out.
Half an hour later, the thick needles and white cloth had already been delivered.
Hou Junji stared at the thick needle and was silent for a long time, until there was a fierce look in his eyes.
"Fight!"
He gritted his teeth and let out a low cry and plunged the needle into his arm!
Tick, tick.
The blood flowed down his arm to his elbow, but Hou Junji's face was undeserved, his right index finger pointed at the blood, and then slashed towards the white cloth!
Former.
Li Yuanji, the king of Qi, used this trick to successfully win the sympathy of Emperor Li Yuan, and was finally released.
Now, he imitates King Qi and can still succeed!
……
Tai Chi Palace, inside the upper study.
Li Shimin looked at the sand table in front of him and groaned for a long time.
Fang Xuanling on the side was sitting on the desk, drafting the holy decree.
"Bai Li Jing is the general manager of the Xikaidao march, and he has the title of secretary of the military department to lead the army."
Li Shimin said,
"Li Daozong, the king of the city, was appointed as the head of the Shanshan Dao march; Li Daliang, the governor of Liangzhou, was the head of the march at the end of the road; Li Daoyan, the governor of Minzhou, was appointed as the head of the Chishui Road march; Fengli Prefecture Thorn Shi Gao was born as the head of the Yanze Road march, as well as Hu generals such as Qibi He Li and Zhi Lost Sili and other Hu generals led the Turkic army, sending a total of 100,000 troops to attack Tuyuhun! ”
Whew!
Fang Xuanling quickly wrote his will.
After all, Li Er is the emperor immediately, a person who knows the soldiers, and with a simple and clear edict, he has already arranged the 100,000 army in an orderly manner!
"Your Majesty, it's already ready."
Fang Xuanling glanced at the holy decree, and after making sure that it was correct, he raised his head and said,
"Do you want to issue it now, so that the generals can receive the talismans?"
Li Shimin heard this, but did not respond, still looking at the sand table silently.
"One more place."
He pointed to a curve on the sand table and said,
"There's still an army to go."
"The head of the march of Jishi Road, who should be sealed?"
"Let me think about ......"
In Li Shimin's mind, several figures flashed.
Wei Chigong?
Cheng Zhijie?
Niu Jinda?
Li Ji?
Or send the clan king?
Thinking about it one by one, he was a little hesitant.
It seems to be okay, but it doesn't feel so suitable.
It is necessary to choose one who can cooperate well with Li Jing, whether it is Wei Chigong or Cheng Zhijie, they are not too compatible with Li Jing, these two are proud of their high merits, fighting in that kind of place on the grassland, a rush may get carried away, and there may be mistakes.
Looking at it this way, there is no need for people in the clan to choose.
Li has a good performance, but he has high seniority and high credit, and he can't just make a side dish for Li Jing.
In this way, Niu Jinda seems to be the best candidate.
"Feng Niu Jinda is the head of the march on the stone road."
Li Shimin gave the last order, and his eyes were already taken away from the sand table.
He looked at Fang Xuanling and said in a deep voice:
"After the will is issued, all military matters will be handed over to Li Jing!"
"I don't bother anymore, let him deploy everything by himself, after all, I also gave him the book of the military department."
"Of course, I will still handle the rationing of food and grass and military salaries, so let him fight with confidence!"
Li Er's military ability is excellent, but he has never been a person who likes micro-manipulation.
Now that the Grand Governor has been appointed, let him play freely!
"Yes."
"The minister retired."
Fang Xuanling added a stroke, wrote the holy decree, and turned around to leave.
But halfway through, he suddenly turned his head and said tentatively:
"Your Majesty."
"Why hasn't there been any news of Taishi recently? Hasn't he returned to Chang'an yet? ”
From Xu Fenglei's departure from Chang'an to the current war, many days have passed.
It stands to reason that even if he walks back, the Taishi should return to Chang'an at this time......
"I sent someone to ask him to come back, but he didn't want to come back."
Li Shimin was a little unhappy when he mentioned this, and snorted coldly,
"He's putting up a fight with me!"
"Since you don't want to come back, then don't come back! It's not that I can't do without him, and it's not that Datang can't do without him! ”
"Look at this time, without him, everything is still in order? With him or not, it's all the same! ”
When Fang Xuanling heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned.
"This ......"
"That's still a little different, Taishi he ......"
He couldn't help but want to persuade, but was swept over by Li Shimin's eyes.
"Don't mention him again! Anyway, I've already given the steps, and if he wants to come back, he'll come back! If you don't want to go back, I can't kidnap him back! It's as if I'm so rare! ”
Li Shimin said unhappily,
"It is easy to go from thrift to luxury, and it is difficult to go from luxury to thrift."
"He is used to living a luxurious life in Chang'an, how can he stand the harsh environment in Jiuzhi Mountain? He didn't even have a foot-washer to serve him! ”
"Look, it won't be long before he himself can't stand it anymore...... With me, hum! ”
Fang Xuanling: "......"
Listening to this, how can you feel that the emperor's tone has an indescribable awkward feeling?
"There you go! Just do your own thing! ”
Li Shimin shouted,
"The most important thing in Datang now is the war against Tuyuhun!"
"This time, I must kill Murong Fuyun! After catching him, I won't beat his out, count him clean! ”
Li Er was talking and talking, and he began to swear words!
It can be seen how annoying Murong Fuyun, a dog who repeatedly jumps sideways!
"Yes, the minister retired."
Fang Xuanling didn't say anything more, turned around and left.
He wasn't too worried about Xu Fenglei at the moment...... As long as it is not His Majesty's derogation, as long as the initiative is in the hands of the Grand Master, it doesn't matter.
Da-da-da.
Seeing Fang Xuanling leave, Li Shimin walked back to the table and took out a letter from under the board.
"Alas!"
He opened it, frowned again, and bit the shaft of his pen.
"How do you write this apology letter to be sincere?"
"It's a lot of brains, it's a lot of brains!"
"Come on! Go and call the eldest grandson Wuji to me! ”
Li Shimin lit a cigarette and smoked half of it, but he still had no clue.
So I planned to call a foreign aid to help with the staff.
And this foreign aid can only be the eldest grandson Wuji, because the relationship between the two sides is more intimate and there are more things to say.
Of course, it's just 'more', and it can't be explained!
Well......
……
"See Your Majesty."
The eldest grandson Wuji bowed his hand.
"Auxiliary, I have a ...... Uh, old friend. ”
Li Shimin flicked the cigarette ash, coughed dryly, and said,
"This old friend and his friend had a misunderstanding, and the relationship between the two sides is not very good now, and it is a bit stiff."
"This old friend of mine wants to break this deadlock, and wants to write a letter of apology himself, but he doesn't know where to start, what to say in it to impress his friend."
"So he found me, but I don't have a clue, I'm not good at it...... You've always had a quick mind and a way to think about it, so I'd like to ask you to help you think about it. ”
"If it were you, what would you write it?"
When the eldest grandson Wuji heard this, he immediately couldn't hold back.
He wanted to say it...... Your Majesty, is this old friend you are talking about?
