Chapter 82 The freshly minted King of Chu

 It has been two years since Li Kuan entered the court as Du Jing and became an official. During this period, more or less people became familiar with the ministers. Ninety-nine percent of them did not expect that they would take the initiative to curry favor with a lieutenant general.

time.

Of course, Li Kuan also knew that most of the people who came to congratulate him were just trying to save face. He just smiled and thought they were snakes and didn't take it to heart at all.

Seeing Li Daliang approaching, Li Kuan also apologized to the officials, then stepped forward, cupped his hands and said, "I have seen Enshuai!"

The prince saluted him, which made Li Daliang a little panicked. He waved his hands repeatedly: "Hey, Your Highness, you are a bad minister."

But Li Kuan didn't care at all. When he was imprisoned, no one in the court knew that Du Jing was a beggar picked up by Li Daliang. If Li Daliang hadn't rewarded him with a bowl of military rations, he would have starved to death long ago.

Li Kuan is not the kind of narrow-minded person who dares not face the past and tries his best to cover it up when he is no longer rich. Once someone mentions it, he jumps up and wants to eat people.

He always insisted that forgetting the past would be tantamount to betrayal. At first, Li Daliang did not despise him because he was a beggar, but instead promoted him repeatedly; today Li Kuan will not use his status as a prince to pay tribute to his old acquaintance.

"It's still the same as before. You still call me Qianfan. Your Highness or something like that, which hurts our friendship."

Li Daliang smiled happily and secretly praised him, not forgetting his roots, and then walked out with him.

When they caught up with Hou Junji, Niu Jinda and Qibi Heli were waiting in front, and the two of them also smiled and walked up.

Just as Qibi Heli was about to open his mouth, Li Kuan raised his hand to stop him: "Don't say anything, just change your words to wine, okay?"

Qibi was also a cheerful man. He didn't know that the King of Chu was trying to get him off the stairs, so he immediately raised his hands to everyone and said, "To save my little brother, I'll ask you to get drunk and then rest. How about it?"

Watching several people leave chatting and laughing, Li Tai, with a gloomy face, walked to Li Chengqian and stood side by side.

He said angrily: "The prince interacts privately with the court officials, especially the generals, but this is not allowed by the royal laws of this dynasty. Will there be a censor to impeach him tomorrow?"

Speaking of this, Li Tai pretended to be a croaker: "Prince, I just forgot that Hou Junji seems to be very close to you. But he is now!"

No matter how stupid Li Chengqian was, he could still tell that these were words to sow discord, so he just sneered: "Qingque, what you are doing with the second child has nothing to do with Guke."

"If you feel unhappy with him, you can ask your "friend" to impeach him. But I remind you that the second brother is not only the hero of the rescue, but also the general of the Hundred Cavalry Guard."

Li Chengqian didn't drink today, so he can still figure things out. As one of the first people to know Li Kuan's identity, he knew that what the second brother wanted most when he came back this time was revenge.

But Li Tai is different. This damn fat guy is aiming at his Eastern Palace. Compared to the domineering second son, Li Tai is ambitious and does not take him seriously, the prince with whom he shares the same world.

As for what to do if you interact privately with military generals?

People are generals first and then princes. Just like the king of Jiangxia, the king of Hejian and the military generals, they are friendships established through life and death. Your Majesty has nothing to do with it!

Looking at Li Tai's unlucky look, Li Chengqian was in a good mood, and his words became tighter as he was in a good mood.

So as the eldest brother, he reminded Li Tai that the second brother was different from him. He was a military commander and had experienced many battles. His temper was not as good as his own.

Moreover, Li Tai's literary library has a lot of literati with complicated backgrounds. It is inevitable that the good and the bad are mixed. They write randomly and slander the government. Go back and clean it up quickly. Don't wait for the Hundred Cavalry Guards to come. That will not be good.

I ate the fruit.

Hum, he cupped his hands, and Li Tai replied with a smile: "Prince, let's be more careful with each other!"

Huh? Li Tai finally suffered a loss, but Li Chengqian could let him go so easily: "Didn't you just say that Hou Junji went drinking with him?"

"Men in the army all value friendship. As long as the wine is drunk, the law and human relationships can be taken into account, right?"

After a few words, Li Tai's provocation failed, so he just snorted coldly and walked away. Li Chengqian didn't care that he didn't salute. He was in a good mood and refused the ride, preparing to walk down the mountain.

..., At the foot of Tiantai Mountain, the carriages of the ministers formed a long queue. The courtiers attending the special court meeting, served by their servants, got on their carriages and returned to the government office to work.

Among the many carriages, standing next to the Niu family's carriage was a very special person - the eldest son of the Niu family - Niu Zhen.

It’s not that he is wearing a seventh-grade official uniform and is incompatible with the fifth-grade and above officials participating in the court. It’s that he shouldn’t have appeared here, or shouldn’t have appeared like this.

He is a well-known cripple in the honorable circle, a cripple that Niu Jinda can never straighten up. At this time, he is standing on the ground properly, looking a little anxious.

Seeing him pacing back and forth anxiously, with only a slight limp, everyone passing by Niu Zhen pointed and stared at his legs with curious eyes.

How did he stand up? In other words, how did his legs grow back?

But Niu Zhen didn't bother to pay attention to them at all. When he saw Li Kuan chatting and laughing with Qi Bi and others, he became excited, walked forward quickly, and knelt down with a plop.

With red eyes and a trembling voice, he said: "The sinful minister Niu Zhen, please see His Highness the King of Chu. His Highness is a thousand years old! A thousand years old!"

Since he knew that Du Jing was Li Kuan, Niu Zhen pestered Niu Jinda to inquire about his past, but Niu Jinda's knowledge was limited after all. He did not hesitate to bother Li Daliang and asked him to tell him in detail.

Hearing that his teenage years were so difficult, Niu Zhen felt extremely guilty. If he had been older and had better kung fu, he might have been able to get the guards to come to his aid. It was all because of his incompetence that he was let go

His Highness has experienced life and death again and again.

Li Kuan helped Niu Zhen, who was in tears, to dust him off. Li Kuan said warmly: "Brother Zhen, don't always feel guilty. You have done your best."

"Besides, don't you think I'm pretty good now? My official position and title are no worse than others. I heard from Marquis Langya that you haven't got any errands yet. Just in time, I've got a new errand, and we brothers can help!"

Niu Zhen was the first friend Li Kuan made when he came to this world. Compared with adult intrigues, childhood friendship is always beautiful.

Now that he is back, Niu Zhen no longer has to live with guilt. He patted Niu Zhen on the shoulder and saw that his eyes were as red as a rabbit. Li Kuan said to Hou Junji and others: "Whose boss is this?"

Girl!"

Just as he was about to mount his horse, he saw Xue Wanjun standing in the distance. Xue Wanche bowed his hand to him, and Li Kuan smiled and nodded in response.

He knew in his heart why the Xue brothers didn't move forward. Apart from the rule that "princes and ministers are not allowed to communicate in private", it was really inconvenient.

The reason for this inconvenience has to start with the celebration banquet of the Western Expedition. The saint held a grand palace banquet to comfort the generals. Xue Wanjun was ashamed that his merits were not achieved by his own strength, so he denied the merits in person.

After leaving the palace, Qibi Heli drew his sword and wanted to kill Wanjun, but was persuaded by the generals. When the saint heard about it, he was furious and wanted to transfer Xue Wanjun's official position to Heli.

But why did Qibi refuse to accept his words? He also said, "I explain Wanjun for the sake of my ministers. I'm afraid that when the Fans hear about it, they will think that Your Majesty favors the Fans and despises the Han people. They will turn around and make false accusations. There will be more competition. Also, the barbarians and Di are ignorant and may call them Han."

The ministers are all like this, it is definitely not the art of peace."

It was precisely because Qi Bi was upright and upright that the saint valued him, so he was appointed to stay at Xuanwu Gate, inspect the school and camp affairs, and marry the daughter of the clan to the head of Lintao County. But from then on, Qi Bi and the Xue brothers
