With a faint breath, Xiao Han stood unsteadily next to Li Shimin, and looked side by side at the Xiao Family Manor in front of him.
"Besides him? There should be someone to help him. A Hou Junji can't move the people from the Ministry of Rites and Yushitai."
"Well, there is another person named Li Shilong."
Seeing Xiao Han standing beside him, Li Shimin smiled happily and said another name.
Logically speaking, as a king, he shouldn't be like this, but Xiao Lizi really cares about Xiao Han as a friend.
This feeling is just like Kangxi caring about Wei Xiaobao in The Deer and the Cauldron!
Because in their lifetime as emperors, they may only have such a friend!
Son of Heaven, Son of Heaven!
Everyone in the world saw his dignity, his power, and his splendor.
But how many people can truly experience the loneliness of being at a high place?
"Wang Shilong?"
Xiao Han did not look at the smiling Li Shimin, but lowered his head and thought hard about the name.
It was obvious that this was the first time this name appeared in his mind, whether in his past life or this life.
"Is this just a little-known person?"
The idea that popped up just popped into Xiao Han's mind and was automatically rejected by him.
How could the person who could tell it from Xiao Lizi's mouth and help Hou Junji contact various forces be an unknown person?
"Who is this Wang Shilong?"
After thinking for a long time, he really couldn't remember any information about this person. Xiao Han had no choice but to shamelessly ask Li Shimin.
Li Shimin hesitated a little this time, but finally uttered four words: "Langya, Wang family!"
"Langya Wang Family?" Suddenly hearing this name from Xiao Lizi's mouth, Xiao Han gasped on the spot!
He had dealt with the Wang family's people, and later went to Taiyuan, where he met the Wang family's son, Wang Fuyi, in that inn that he still vividly remembers.
It was precisely because of that contact that he realized how deep the Wang family's heritage was!
Thinking of everything back then, whether it was people or things, Xiao Han was deeply touched.
That is the depth that a true thousand-year-old family can possess, and it is definitely not something that the emerging Xiao Family Village can match.
"What does this person want to do?" Xiao Han secretly marveled for a moment, and suddenly remembered that Li Shimin seemed to hate the noble family the most!
Now that he knows that there is a noble family behind all this, why is he so quiet? This is wrong, very wrong!
"They came out this time probably to promote Hou Junji to the position of Minister of War." Li Shimin sighed softly and replied in a low voice.
He is borrowing other people's power, and why aren't others borrowing his name?
"Minister of the Ministry of War." At this point, Xiao Han could no longer continue.
He had no way to persuade Li Shimin to give up Hou Junji, because from the current point of view, regardless of ability or age, Hou Junji is Li Jing's best successor!
As for character, that is what ordinary people pursue! As an emperor, he will always be the same as Cao Cao, choosing people and materials instead of Qi De!
When they look at a person, moral character and integrity always come last and are dispensable.
Moreover, if you read history, you will find that many emperors particularly liked people who behaved inappropriately!
Because these people can be chopped into pieces after they are used up! Then all the dirty water will be poured out on these people, and I will also have the image of a saint who redresses the grievances of the people. Why not?
"In three days, I will hold a grand merit ceremony. When the time comes, remember not to pretend to be sick!"
This was the last thing Li Shimin said to Xiao Han. After he finished speaking, he patted Xiao Han on the shoulder, took a deep look at Xiaojiazhuangzi, and turned to leave.
And leaving with him were countless figures, both overt and covert.
"Wang Shilong? Which turtle bastard is this?"
Li Shimin left, but Xiao Han still stood blankly on the slope and thought for a long time. In the end, he resisted the idea of holding a big stick and tracking down this little bastard all over the world. He walked down the slope step by step and moved towards his home.
go.
At home, the banquet is still going on.
On the table, Liu Zhizheng, who was so frightened that he almost peed his pants just now, held up his cup and boasted to others about how brave he was in meeting His Majesty the Emperor!
What is even more puzzling is that Zhang Qiang, who was sitting arm-in-arm with him, nodded in agreement and even gave him a thumbs-up!
"Your Majesty is here!"
Seeing this scene, Xiao Han, who was already half drunk, became playful and pinched his nose and shouted like an eunuch.
"Plop!"
Almost at the same time, Zhang Qiang was fine, but Fatty Liu was so frightened that he fell to the ground limply like noodles.
"Your Majesty, long live your Majesty!"
"Ha ha ha ha……"
Liu Zhi lowered his head and shouted, but the sound in his memory never came. Instead, it was Xiao Han's laughter that first exploded in his ears.
"Um?"
Hearing this arrogant laughter, Liu Zhi, who was shaking like chaff, bravely looked up. The first thing he saw was Xiao Han holding his belly. He was out of breath from laughing and almost rolled on the floor.
.
"How dare you lie to me! Liu will fight you!" Seeing this scene, Liu Zhi's eyes turned red. He rolled up his sleeves and was about to step forward to fight Xiao Han.
As a result, before Liu Zhi could rush over, Xiao Han's eyes widened and he exclaimed behind him: "Ah, Your Majesty? Why are you back?"
“Bang!“
As soon as Xiao Han finished speaking, Fatty Liu fell to the ground again. Now he didn't even have the strength to sit up, let alone stand up.
"Xiao Han, you are trying to kill me, Old Liu!"
Facts have proved that the Xiao family's food is delicious, but not so easy to digest.
Poor Liu Zhi left the table angrily after being teased twice, and then went to the kitchen to pack a lot of food and prepare to leave the Xiaojiazhuang.
"Hey, don't ride a horse when you're drinking!" Xiao Han told Fatty Liu from behind with his tongue out loud.
But Fatty Liu turned a deaf ear and jumped on the horse without looking back. He just left this place that he loved and hated at the same time amidst the low roar of the horse.
Xiaojiazhuangzi has always been beautiful and special.
People here have seen too many high-ranking officials showing off their honors, so even if the emperor comes tonight, it won't cause much trouble here.
What will happen if the emperor comes? Can he still help push the wheat?
No? Then why should I take special care of him?
Perhaps, after a long time, the only person who has a deep memory of this incident is the woman who extorted a lot of money and ended up spending only five cents to buy tiles.
"Hey, it would be nice to go on our roof again sometime!" The woman who got the money looked at the roof with a big hole in the night and fell into deep thinking.
