Chapter 421 Feeling like old friends at first sight (6)
In the huge hall, there was only one square table.
There were seven or eight plates of dishes on the table. When I looked at Yuhuchun, I saw that the gangsters were chewing and drinking. Their cheeks were flushed. Cui Xin frowned and sat down reluctantly, wishing he could get away.
Yu Sheshe and Li Shan were the most normal. They drank lightly and slowly, and took a few bites of food from time to time...Yu Sheshe was also very proficient in using chopsticks.
"Xiaozheng, please go back first." Li Shan said to Yuan Xiaozheng, who poured the wine himself: "Read the two poetry collections you brought back this time."
"Yes." Yuan Xiaozheng put down the wine jar, stepped back a few steps, and bowed before retreating.
Yu Sheshe felt a little uneasy. Yuan Junzhang's son actually worshiped Li Shan as his teacher... Fortunately, I stayed outside the city last night, but is it a bit risky to enter the city today?
"I didn't expect Huairen to be famous for his poetic talent." Yu Sheshe narrowed his eyes and asked, "I have been admiring Chinese studies for a long time..."
Li Shan said sternly: "I can find out something about Brother Mo someday. If there is a chance, I can ask him in the pass... Everyone says that in the imperial capital, no one can be better than him."
Yu Sheshe blinked his mung bean-sized eyes and forced a smile: "Huairen is really good at both civil and military affairs."
"Brother Mo Mo, you're too polite." Li Shan smiled and said, "But what I have learned is indeed complex, and I am also good at medicine."
"Medicine?"
"Didn't Yuan Junzhang tell you?" Li Shan said in surprise: "Princess Pingyang was seriously injured last year, and it was delayed until February this year. She is so serious that it is difficult to recover. The disease has penetrated into the bone marrow. It is because of my wonderful hand that she can rejuvenate..."
"Oh oh oh..." Yu Sheshe almost understood. Yuan Junzhang said before that Li Shan was regarded as a nephew by the Emperor of Tang Dynasty, and he was also the sibling of Princess Pingyang. This should be the reason.
Cui Xin snorted coldly. He just couldn't stand Li Shan's appearance... Hey, I don't know who was waiting outside the camp gate last night. He was so arrogant!
Li Shan glanced sideways and said, "The spring in the jade pot is quite strong. Can Cui Sheren take a break?"
Are you trying to drive me away... Cui Xin gritted his teeth, stood up and threw his sleeves away.
"This man is a close minister of the saint." Li Shan picked up the wine jar and poured wine, and said with a smile: "You and I are narrating..."
Yu Sheshe glanced at Cui Xin's back and said, "If he is a minister of the Tang Emperor..."
The two of us discussed the alliance. In fact, it was Tuli Khan who formed an alliance with the Emperor of Tang Dynasty. Why should we drive him away?
Li Shan let out a long sigh, "Last night I listened to Brother Mo Mo's account of all the things happening in the grasslands. Jieli Khan was so powerful and brutal, and he often pressed me, but Tuli Khan could only support himself..."
The leader of the association complained: "Before Du Bi succeeded to the throne, the tribes under his command were not as good as Yu Sheshe, and they were only slightly more than..."
After listening for a moment, Li Shan couldn't help but think about it in his mind. Yu Sheshe was the third son of Chuluo Khan. After Chuluo Khan died of illness, the tribe in his hands was divided into three parts, consisting of the eldest son Ao Sheshe and the second son Ashina.
She'er, the third son Yu Sheshe took over. Among them, Yu Sheshe was the youngest son. According to the grassland custom, he got the most.
But soon Aosheshe died suddenly, and the tribe was annexed by Jieli Khan. In this case, Ashinasheer chose to seek refuge, while Yusheshe chose to rely on Tuli Khan.
In the following years, Yu Sheshe was constantly sent to Liangshidu, Liu Wuzhou, and Yuan Junzhang as supervisors. The tribes remaining in the grasslands were gradually eroded by Jieli Khan until this time Tuli Khan returned to Wu
Original county.
It can be said that both the power in Yu Sheshe's hands and his status as the youngest son of Chuluo Khan made him become the right-hand man of Tuli Khan, and his weight was quite important.
Yu Sheshe did not shy away from this matter. In fact, these were the basis for the alliance between Tuli Khan and the Tang Emperor.
After explaining it in detail and giving two examples, Yu Sheshe asked: "Huairen asked about this..."
"The fighting in the grassland is not much better in Chang'an City!" Li Shan sighed, "I guess Brother Mo knows the King of Qin..."
Yu Sheshe also sighed, "Of course I know King Qin's reputation."
Last year Jieli Khan attacked Hedong, Yu Sheshe went with the army, and Li Shimin sent troops to Hedong Road. In fact, Li Shimin did not personally fight in that battle.
But unlike other Turkic generals, Yu She set up a supervisory army, Liu Wuzhou, and led two thousand cavalry to capture most of Hedong Road. As a result, in the battle of Baibi, Li Shimin was as quiet as a virgin and moved like a rabbit, defended like a rock, and attacked like a thunderbolt.
.
What impressed Yu Sheshe the most was the Battle of Baibi. Liu Wuzhou was defeated. Li Shimin took advantage of the victory and pursued him. He did not dismount his horse for three days and four nights, and finally won a complete victory. Liu Wuzhou had to flee to the grassland.
Later, the King of Qin swept through the Central Plains and pacified Hebei. His various achievements also made the Turks in Shuozhou and the grasslands faintly fearful.
Yu Sheshe asked tentatively: "Prince..."
"The King of Qin's achievements are unparalleled, but it is difficult for the prince to protect himself, and the battle for the heir in the capital is tragic." Li Shan smiled bitterly and said: "This Cui Sheren was born in the Cui family of Qinghe, but I don't know his details. It is better to avoid some things.
.”
The friend on the side suddenly asked: "Then where are you?"
"I entered the imperial examination and became an official." Li Shan said frankly, "This is not just a boast. I am good at medicine, good at understanding people, and have unparalleled poetic talent. I am familiar with classics and history, and know military affairs. I also have strategies. The prince, the King of Qin, has shown me kindness on several occasions."
"But if we get involved in the fight for the right to inherit, I'm afraid there will be something unbearable to say in the future... Just when I was panicking, Princess Pingyang happened to be seriously ill..."
"Oh," Yu Sheshe said with a smile, "Huairen is lucky."
Li Shan nodded with emotion, "That's true. It's a blessing to have His Majesty's favor, but the King of Qin, the Crown Prince..."
"That's why Dai County was released."
Yu Sheshe clicked his tongue twice and felt the same way. Li Shan was active and he was passive, but both were exiled to the border because of internal strife in the country.
In the past two years, there has been little contact between the Turks in Li and Tang, and trade routes have been cut off. Yu She had intended to form an alliance with Li and Tang, so he naturally had a need for internal information about Li and Tang, so he immediately inquired in detail.
Li Shan knew everything and talked about it all, and he wanted to pour it out... This is why he drove Cui Xin away. If the father-in-law were here, he probably wouldn't be able to stand it.
"Before Xiaozheng went to Chang'an, I specifically told you that since you are my disciple, you cannot accept invitations from the East Palace and the Prince of Qin's Palace at will."
"Hey, life is hard for both you and me!"
"No." Li Shan picked up the wine cup and drank it all in one gulp. "On this return trip, I will report everything to His Majesty secretly and ask him to make a decision."
After a pause, Li Shan said with a smile: "Don't worry, I have the right to secretly report, and Princess Pingyang will be the most favored by the saint."
Yu Sheshe nodded, "But all matters still need to be discussed."
"It has been roughly decided. Some things need to be discussed in detail in the future." Li Shan said with a wry smile: "But next year, I may have to move..."
"Um?"
"Yu Gushe hates me to the core. If he knows someone is in Yanmen, he will definitely attack me." Li Shan shook his head, "It's better to run away."
Yu Sheshe laughed and nodded, "If I knew you were in Mayi, I would have led my troops here immediately."
Li Shan's hand when pouring wine went stiff, "Brother Mo Mo, he doesn't know that I'm in Mayi, right?"
"Sending people back to Wuyuan County only mentioned that the Tang Emperor sent envoys to appease Yuan Junzhang." Yu Sheshe explained, "What Huairen said last night was right... the enemy of the enemy is a friend."
Li Shan grinned, "Not only that, this is the first time I met Brother Momo, and I felt like we were old friends at first sight."
"I feel the same way." Yu Sheshi's cheeks bulged, and he might have felt a little disgusted, so he immediately changed the subject, "In this case, then all things still need to be discussed, such as Shuozhou now..."
Li Shan rubbed his eyebrows, "Actually, I sent people back to Yanmen the day before yesterday to transport grain and grass to Mayi. They should arrive today or tomorrow... We can't really let people starve to death."
Yu Sheshe was greatly surprised, "You are worthy of the name of Huairen."
Li Shan accepted it without any courtesy... A batch of grain and grass really doesn't matter. In fact, Daizhou's grain and grass is very abundant now, and Yuan Junzhang has nearly 10,000 troops, which cannot be satisfied by this batch of grain and grass.
Not to mention other things, at least the posture is out there... Yuan Junzhang, open your eyes wide and see clearly. Although you can't surrender to the Tang Dynasty, Mayi is in such a miserable state, the army is in short supply of food and grass, and the Turks are unwilling to take care of it, and they can't.
.
The only one who is willing and able to take care of it is Li Tang and I, Li Huairen.
