That night, many people slept peacefully, while many others had difficulty falling asleep.
People who sleep peacefully have their reasons, and people who have difficulty falling asleep naturally also have their reasons... For example, Pei Shiju, who is still leaning on the couch and staring at the lonely lamp.
Suddenly, the chaotic noise outside interrupted Pei Shiju's thoughts. The old man summoned his servants with an expressionless face... Anyone who had the guts to cause trouble in the Prime Minister's house in the dead of night, except for the man who made him still in his twilight years.
Who else could be the son-in-law who wants to rise up?
The sound of hurried footsteps was approaching, and Li Dewu appeared in front of Pei Shiju with a grin on his face. The expression on his face was complicated and unspeakable. He opened his mouth with a straight thrust, "Today the important ministers are out to welcome you, and there is a banquet in the palace. Such a grand event will be spread all over the world before dusk."
City, why is my father-in-law absent?"
If it were in the future, Li Shan would definitely sincerely advise this person to register... He has a senior student he has a good relationship with in the psychiatry department.
Seeing that Pei Shiju was speechless, Li Dewu chuckled and said, "I heard that Your Majesty praised my father-in-law for his meritorious recommendation. Maybe there will be a reward tomorrow."
Gee, my psychology has been completely distorted.
Li Dewu had already broken the pot and had no hope for anything in this life. After suffering the long-term psychological torture from Pei Shiju and Pei Shuying, what he most wanted to see was that the son he abandoned could defeat Pei Shiju again and again.
After a long silence, Pei Shiju spoke at length, "I am indeed good at recognizing people. As early as after the Shandong War, I concluded that this son should be a thousand-mile horse."
"In terms of martial arts, Li Huairen has a talent for military strategy. He is good at planning and planning. He has a far-sighted vision and can force Yuan Junzhang into a desperate situation without making a move. This time he defeated the Turks and went into battle personally. He charged into the battle with a spear and took the lead..."
"Yang Gongren and Chen Shuda are congratulating your majesty in front of the emperor for winning another famous general after Li Yaoshi. This is true."
Looking up at Li Dewu, seeing the man's face gradually darkening, Pei Shiju tugged a sneer from the corner of his mouth, "Three defeats of the Turks, the first time was a coincidence of deadly battles, the third time even without Zhang Wu'an leading the army in a surprise attack, the Tang army could still win, but only
The second time is also the most critical time..."
"Li Huairen seemed to be taking the wrong approach, but he was actually cautious. He charged into the battle alone and led the entire army forward. In the end, Jieli Khan never had the chance to reunite his troops."
"He does have the appearance of a famous general."
Pei Shiju said indifferently: "In this paper, Li Huairen's poems and prose surpassed the whole city of Chang'an. Every poem can be handed down to the world, and it is better than that of Xue Daoheng of the Sui Dynasty."
"Unlike Xue Daoheng, Li Huairen was good at finding his own career and won great victories. However, he was able to make choices and gain the trust of saints."
Li Dewu's face became increasingly ugly, and his sleeves were shaking with his trembling hands. The old thief's words were just stabbing him in the heart!
"In terms of governance, Li Huairen has been in charge of Daizhou for half a year. From the military lieutenant general to the common people, everyone is grateful and grateful." Pei Shiju sighed slightly, "I heard that he was seriously ill and bedridden, and many people outside Xia City prayed for him."
"On fame..."
Pei Shiju's brows moved slightly, "Shandong turned the tide, Chang'an's poems were world-famous, Mayi's snowy night cheered him up, and he defeated the Turks three times outside the pass. Who else in the world can surpass his reputation of Li Huairen?"
"At that time, I said that this son might become the second champion. Now it seems that he chases barbarians and bases himself on the capital, which is quite the same. However, he is soothing to people's hearts. His poetic talent is world-class, and he also has a certain amount of advance and retreat. He is far away from Huo Qubing."
"Even thousands of years later, his name will be recorded in the history books, and his talent will be praised by historians."
"And if you, Li Dewu, leave your name in history, I'm afraid you will also have a bad name."
Li Dewu's face was livid, he raised his halberd finger, and wanted to curse a few words but couldn't. For someone to praise Li Shan so much, it would be like slapping him in the face.
It is no exaggeration to say that such an heir with both civil and military talents is what any aristocratic family looks forward to the most, a true horse of a thousand miles.
Such a thousand-mile horse was abandoned by me without mercy...
If one day the matter is revealed to the world, Li Dewu's name will surely be engraved on the pillar of shame and become an example of blindness and blindness.
Seeing his son-in-law leaving in embarrassment and anger, Pei Shiju talked for a long time and fell into thought again.
To this day, Pei Shiju has regretted it for a long time. If he had known this, he should have kicked Li Dewu out... He was soft-hearted for a while, or in other words, he did not take Li Shan into his eyes at that time, even if he had the trust of the saint.
To be honest, Pei Shiju did agree with the words of the sage Li Yuan last year: such a person should be the best in the world.
Li Yuan's words vaguely pointed to the Wei and Jin Dynasties, when officials were selected based on their clans, so there were some objections from the government and the public at that time. After all, Li Shan was not a descendant of the Li family in Longxi.
Li Mu's grandfather Li Bin came from the grassland and guarded Gaoping as the governor during the Northern Wei Dynasty. After that, this branch has been settled in Gaoping. It was after Li Mu was granted the title of Duke of Shen that it was said that this branch is the descendant of Li Ling of the former Han Dynasty.
Because the Li family in Longxi respected Li Guang, the former Han Dynasty, as their ancestor, and Li Ling was the posthumous son of Li Guang's eldest son, Li Danghu, and the eldest grandson of Zheng'er Ba Jing... Pei Shiju thought in his heart that such a statement was probably made at that time.
This is a sign that Li Mu and his descendants are preparing to join the Li family in Longxi.
In other words, if Li Hun had not been executed by his clan in the Sui Dynasty, given the reputation of Shen Guogong Li Mu and a series of operations, the two generations of Li Dewu and Li Shan should be regarded as the Li family of Longxi.
With his talent, he might be able to open another room.
Because the north and the south had faced each other for hundreds of years, and the grassland tribes took over the Central Plains, resulting in mixed bloodlines, similar incidents of continuation of sects occurred frequently in the Sui and Tang dynasties.
Nowadays, Du Zhenglun, a bachelor at the Literary Hall of the Prince of Qin, was born in the Du family of Huanshui. During the reign of Renshou in the former Sui Dynasty, he and his two brothers were admitted to the scholar examination... It's hard to describe how awesome they are. There were only more than a dozen scholars in the Sui Dynasty. The governor of the state capital
The governor recommends people to take the scholar examination. If he fails, he will be punished, but the three brothers will be on the list together!
As he became famous, Du Zhenglun wanted to join the famous Du family in Jingzhao. Unfortunately, people looked down upon him. The ones who rejected him were Du Yan's father and Du Ruhui's grandfather.
Later, during the reign of Emperor Gaozong, Du Zhenglun served as Zhongshu Ling and became Prime Minister... Well, later generations said that this ruthless man dug up Dugu, the ancestral land of the Du family in Jingzhao, in the name of dredging the waterway. It is said that the river flowed like blood at that time, and for ten days
Just stop.
From then on, Du Ruhui's branch of Nandu failed to recover, and no one became as famous as Du Ruhui.
Pei Shiju thought to himself that from this perspective, even if it was the first dynasty in the past, or even further back, it would not be an exaggeration to say that he was the best in the world.
Such a figure, even in the Sui Dynasty when famous generals and ministers emerged one after another, was bound to become famous in the world.
Such a person would be devastated by the casualties of his personal guards, and he would use this method to gather people's hearts. He was usually kind and generous, but when he thought about those Beijing temples piled up on the banks of the Cangtou River, Pei Shiju felt chills to his bones.
If the relationship between Li Shan and Li Jing could be eased someday with the presence of Li Keshi, his son and others, then the hatred between Li Shan and Pei Shiju could no longer be resolved.
After all, Li Jing's goal was to win a great victory and make great achievements, not to let Li Shan die. Even Li Shan was trapped in Guji Town because of his own fault.
As for Pei Shiju and Li Dewu, their goal is to try again and again to make Li Shanming die justly.
This is completely different.
Pei Shiju stretched out his hand to pick out the wick, and the candle suddenly became brighter. If the new emperor ascends the throne in the future, will Li Huairen sit back and watch the Pei family continue to be prosperous?
Absolutely impossible.
If the prince ascends the throne, he and Pei Ji will definitely still be the prime ministers and assistants, and they will still have the same weight.
From this perspective, even if there was only some secret connection between Li Shan and the King of Qin before, they should still be close to each other now.
Pei Shiju's eyes moved to the window, where the night was pitch black. Although the prince was still at a disadvantage in the current situation between the DPRK and China, he was still on a solid footing and was not in danger of overturning.
If we have to wait until His Majesty dies... Pei Shiju's eyes are filled with ice. Although the emperor seems to be full of wrinkles and old, he still drinks and eats meat every day, and even drives horses and hunts in his spare time.
