After sending Li Mu away, Li Tai had no human contact in Beijing. He was almost eating up the mats at his cousins' houses. As for most other people, they were avoiding him, and he was too lazy to join in.
I felt uncomfortable in the past.
So as a newly social orphan, Li Tai could only go to the home of his new boss and father-in-law, Dugu Xin, and wait for orders.
Unlike Li Tai, who was neglected in the world of love, Dugu Xin's home is still bustling with visitors recently. One is naturally because Dugu Xin has a high reputation and many close friends, and the other is that Longbian has a strong desire for rain.
The atmosphere here is felt by the people in Chang'an.
The Western Wei Dynasty was originally a regime dominated by warriors. If warriors wanted to show their value, they naturally had to fight. However, since the Battle of Mangshan in the ninth year of Datong, there have been few large-scale wars in the country.
Although there are military parades every year, these military parades are not as good as real wars, and the promotion opportunities for generals are also limited. Therefore, when they sense that there may be an opportunity for a big war in Longbian, many who have been idle for a long time
The generals came to see Dugu Xin one after another, hoping to get an opportunity.
Although there are some intriguing meanings between Daxingtai and Duguxin, they will not be publicized to everyone. Moreover, the warriors are not sensitive to political disputes, or short-sighted, as long as they can seek
If you get an opportunity, you can make great achievements, be promoted to a high position, and don't care too much about anything else.

Seeing Li Tai coming to the door, Duguxin's slaves did not dare to neglect him and directly led him into the central hall.
There were seven or eight guests in the hall. When they saw Li Tai entering, they all stopped talking to each other. A few of them who were not as powerful as Li Tai hurriedly avoided the table and got up.
"When Boshan comes here, he first meets some of his close friends."
Duguxin raised his arm and waved to Li Tai, motioning him to come closer, and then introduced the guests at the banquet to him one by one, and Li Tai also greeted them one by one.
"I have heard of Li Sanqi for a long time, and I have seen him in passing, but I haven't had time to stop and take a closer look. Looking again today, I have to admire Mr. Hanoi's discerning eye for gold. How can he miss such a handsome young man? I have a general now.
The feeling of being choked!"
Sitting among the guests of honor was a clan king of the Yuan clan. Dugu Xin naturally did not mention his name when he introduced him. There were many clans in the Yuan clan, so Li Tai was too lazy to think about it in detail. He just smiled and bowed, thanking the king for his praise.
.
The other guests also complimented Li Taiduo, and their attitude was much warmer and more hospitable than when they met alone outside.
But not everyone was being hypocritical and polite. There was a young military attache in his thirties who stood at the end of the table and looked at Li Tai seriously from the moment he entered the hall.
When Li Tai looked at him, without waiting for Dugu Xin to introduce him, the man strode into the hall, bowed to Li Tai, and then introduced himself loudly: "A certain He Ruodun, the former governor of Li Tai was appointed
I had seen this before when I was in Taifu. At that time, the governor had an attractive demeanor, but his deeds were not extraordinary.
Not long after I left the mansion and transferred to guard the river defense, I didn't expect that the reputation of the Commander-in-Chief had already risen in the mansion within a short period of time. Now in this hall, the reputation of the Commander-in-Chief has far surpassed that of the junior generals, which makes people feel that they have wasted their time and feel ashamed!"
For people who have just met, such words are not polite at all. Compliment is not flattery, and modesty is not modesty. It just makes people feel a little baffled. Are we familiar with each other? Why do we say everything out loud.
But fortunately, this guy opened his mouth and said his name first, so Li Tai wasn't too surprised after hearing it. He just sighed that this big mouth was obviously not a temporary symptom. I was just a pretty boy when I first entered Taifu.
Damn it, do you need to remind me about this?
"He Ruolang has a heart and a heart, he is frank and frank, he is also brave, strong and courageous. Bo Shan, you can make him feel ashamed. It is really a great thing."
Dugu Xin was still a little worried that Li Tai was young and energetic and might not be able to stand He Ruoden's unrestrained speech, so he took a step forward and said with a smile, but he soon regretted what he had done by interrupting!
Before Li Tai had time to reply, He Ruodun spoke again: "As Lord Hanoi said, although the general is not a celebrity in the world or an important minister of the country, ordinary people cannot make me sad.
Governor Li is not just a common person with a false reputation, and his deeds are not mentioned. Last year, he performed martial arts in the Baishui Parade and captured Sun Yat-sen in the formation, which made people admire him endlessly!
The last general only regretted that he could not arrive at that time, otherwise he would have volunteered to pursue and fight with the commander-in-chief. The soldiers are very ferocious, and they are prone to life and death. For example, Zhongshan Gong and others do not know the time of the war, so they can only take advantage of it and start trouble in advance.
, Relying on this talent to look proud and strong, such a person with a false reputation can be raised in a household with honor. If he is used as a general, it is really..."
"We haven't seen each other for a long time, why is He Ruolang not as good at drinking as he used to be? Or is it that the drinks in my hall are not good enough, making you want to talk drunkenly?"
Dugu Xin pulled Li Tai back, raised his hand and pushed He Ruoden back to the seat and sat down. He shouted haha and called the servants to scold him, and ordered the imperial wine given by the ban to be brought for the guests to drink.
.
Li Tai sat down in the temporary empty seat next to Dugu Xin's banquet, but he couldn't help but look at He Ruoden. Seeing that his expression seemed to be a little unfinished, he couldn't help but sigh that he was such a good person, but why did he have such a long mouth? This
The guy hasn't been beaten to death yet, it's really because he's pretty good at beating himself.
Li Tai thought that he was quite hated by others, but after meeting He Ruodun, a professional mt, he finally realized what it means to be able to hold hatred firmly. People who can be friends with him, regardless of their character and ability, at least have this kind of self-cultivation.
It is a hard indicator.
Li Tai really wanted to challenge himself in this aspect. Although He Ruodun really had a bad mouth, his son was also really sweet. So after sitting down, he also used greetings to inquire about He Ruodun's current family situation, and learned that
In the ninth year of his reign, he was defeated at Mangshan and was dismissed from his post and returned home. Although he was frustrated in officialdom, his family life became harmonious. In the second year, he gave birth to a fat boy, He Ruobi.
When Li Tai heard this, he couldn't help but sigh. We should take a long-term view. The world is so wonderful. Although the Western Wei Dynasty was defeated in the Mangshan battle, it also made Yu Wentai determined to promote the establishment of the military system, which not only created the future
The powerful military system that the Sui and Tang empires relied on to start their business was actually packaged with a famous general who made outstanding contributions to ending the troubled times of the Southern and Northern Dynasties!
He Ruodun was not a military man from Beizhen, nor was he a Luoyang person who followed Xiaowu and moved west. His father and son did not come from Henan until the third year of Datong. There was no power group in the Western Wei Dynasty and the Bafu to help each other. Therefore, He Ruodun was somewhat special.
He looked down upon some Beizhen warriors who had no name but applauded Li Tai for slapping Zhao Gui in the face.
During Dugu Xin's eastern expedition to Luoyang, He Ruodun joined the army. He was recognized and recommended by Dugu Xin for his bravery, and Yu Wentai summoned He Ruodun to serve as the commander-in-chief of the Sixth Army.
But He Ruodun has such a personality that even if he is appreciated by a big leader, he can't get along well with his colleagues, and his official career is bound to have twists and turns. He said that he had met Li Tai when he first entered the Taiwanese government, but in fact he was putting a premium on his face, because
At that time, he had been dismissed and returned home to give birth to his son. It was not until the 10th year of the reign of Emperor Datong that the river defense force was insufficient. Yu Wentai felt that he was brave and resumed his role in garrisoning the river.
At present, He Ruodun is still serving in the Sixth Army. He has the title of commander-in-chief but has no specific responsibilities except for the main department. He is basically marginalized and the situation is not very good.
He Ruoden came to visit Dugu Xin today with a motive in mind. With a character like his, it would be hard to avoid offending people, not to mention being hated by gods and ghosts. Only through his bravery on the battlefield can he gain respect and awe.
However, the Sixth Army has not yet had any specific combat missions, and even if it was afraid, it would not arrange any good combat missions for him, so it thought of its old boss Dugu Xin again, hoping to find some opportunities with Dugu Xin.
Although He Ruoden was mean-mouthed, he was not stupid. During their conversation, he also vaguely felt that Li Tai was curious about him and valued him, which made him feel happy.
If he had been young and vigorous earlier, he would not have cared too much about this. After all, there are many people who appreciate me, and you are the oldest. But now that he is young and still unliterate, even if he still has arrogance in his heart, he has already lost it.
Got a discount.
Therefore, he cherished every possible opportunity. Li Tai was not only Duguxin's new son-in-law, but also the newly promoted No. 2 figure in Longbian. If he could get his way and be recruited into the army,
You can get rid of the current state of idleness and doing nothing. When you have outstanding achievements, the situation will naturally be fundamentally reversed.
