Standing in the wilderness outside the city and looking back at Chang'an, Xiao Han finally did not "compose a poem" to sing the praises of this huge city that seemed peaceful but was actually undercurrent.
After bidding farewell to Ren Qing that day, the battle between the Crown Prince and the King of Qin finally came to the fore with the establishment of Tiance Mansion.
Through the gossip coming from all directions, Li Shimin took advantage of the power of victory and took up the post of Situ, holding both military and political power in his hands. He was in the limelight for a while.
Li Shimin himself was a general, and the position of Situ he received this time was one of the three princes. This also gave Li Shimin a very important speaking position in the court.
During this period, Xiao Han was just like before, hiding at home when he had nothing to do, and rejecting invitations sent by his colleagues on the grounds that the Marquis was developing new armaments.
In fact, any research on armaments is just to fool people. Everyone in the mansion knows that the Marquis is lying in the mansion, but whenever people come, the concierge always forgets this and tries his best to explain to the visitors.
When visitors hear this, they will know that Xiao Han has worked hard and worked overtime for the rise of the Tang Dynasty...
Under such circumstances, how can you have the nerve to drag people to the banquet again? So after repeatedly confessing, and asking Mr. Xiao to take care of himself, the housekeepers of each family went home to complain. It's not that they don't give face, they are really busy, busy...
…
The concierge politely welcomed and sent off waves of people, and his performance skills were so perfect that he didn't feel any psychological burden at all in deceiving people, because in his heart, he wished that the Marquis could stay at home peacefully for the rest of his life.
Being at home is better than being outside. There is a chaos of war outside. Who knows what dangers there are. Didn’t you hear that a general in the army was killed by a cold arrow from secret a few days ago? If Mr. Hou stays at home all his life, he will
I can spend my whole life here peacefully...
This may be the biggest wish of the fifty-year-old concierge... Unfortunately, within a few days of the stable life, the poor concierge bitterly watched the courtyard change from noisy to silent in an instant. The courtyard where people used to come and go now only
There were one or two veterans collecting fallen leaves.
With a deep sigh, the concierge prayed with the most pious heart that the young marquis would be safe...
After leaving Chang'an, no one came to see them off. Li Shimin, Xue Shou and the others had already gone to Longyou. Xiao Han was even more afraid of trouble and chose a time to leave this ancient city at dawn.
Taking one last look at Chang'an City, Chang'an was so beautiful under the morning light. Xiao Han subconsciously glanced at the weeping willows beside the Ba Bridge. Unfortunately, the once beautiful and breathtaking beauty in red was not there...
Xiao Han sighed softly, turned around and ordered the team to set off.
There was no horse riding this time. Xiao Han rode a large carriage. The wheels of the carriage rolled on the loess road, making an annoying squeak.
Because the convoy is very long, the carriage moves very slowly, and the unchanging grass all around makes people feel a little drowsy...
Xiao Han had been thinking all his life, since Li Yuan didn't want to pass the throne to Li Shimin, why did he give Li Shimin such great rights, not only in the military, but also in political power.
Situ was only a temporary position for Li Shimin. Later, the Shangshu Ling and even the Zhongshu Ling were the most important. It is not an exaggeration to call him the prime minister of a country! Not to mention the title of General Tiance!
This point can be seen from the fact that after Li Shimin forced the palace to become emperor, the first thing he did was to revoke these positions.
Li Yuan was not a foolish emperor. In fact, a large part of the good situation in the early Tang Dynasty was created by Li Yuan himself. Xiao Han felt this very deeply here. It is also true that the founding emperor was not mediocre.
Perhaps later generations of historical recorders intentionally or unintentionally suppressed Li Yuan's ability, or perhaps Li Shimin's brilliance was so overwhelming that Li Yuan's achievements were somewhat dim in front of this dazzling son.
However, no one can deny Li Yuan's great use to the Tang Dynasty.
Why would such a person make such a mistake?
Xiao Han couldn't understand or think clearly. It wasn't until that day that a piece of gossip reached his ears, and Xiao Han suddenly realized it.
Prince Li Jiancheng has the appearance of Yang Guang!
I understand, everything is understood, Xiao Han didn't know if Xue Shou planned this sentence, but seeing the way he hesitated to speak, Xiao Han already had the answer in his heart.
In one sentence, changing a world, what a funny idea, but it happened in front of Xiao Han.
It is undeniable that this sentence is too lethal. Who is Yang Guang?
Although the whole world regards him as a foolish king, an eternal tyrant!
But the conquest of Goryeo, the peace of the family, the opening of water conservancy, and the opening of imperial examinations, these events that had a huge impact on future generations, could they really be carried out by a so-called faint king?
Xiao Han hated him, but he had to admire him. When he was young, Yang Guang was definitely a representative of intelligence. His intelligence was not enough to draw inferences from one case to another. He was a gentle man, courteous to virtuous corporals, and respected each other with officials.
For some reason, Li Jiancheng was 70% similar to Li Jiancheng. Xue Shou firmly grasped this point and amplified it infinitely. This gave Li Shimin the opportunity to rise.
You must know that later, Yang Guang, who was also the prince, became increasingly powerful. Finally, another characteristic appeared in him, that is, he was decisive in killing.
After being established as the prince, Yang Jian's will wavered slightly, and Yang Guang killed everyone who opposed him overnight! Including his father, Emperor Wen of Sui Dynasty, Yang Jian!!!
Prince Li Jiancheng has the appearance of Yang Guang!
Li Jiancheng is Yang Guang, then who is Yang Jian?
Li Yuan didn’t dare to think about it! But he had to think about it!
Power is the devil that lures people into falling into the abyss. Even Li Yuan, who has a very good nature, still lost his mind under the control of power.
However, after all, he is his beloved son. Tomb robbers can throw his father into the ancient tomb, but the father will never leave his son to death.
Soon, Li Yuan, who was confused by the rumors, came up with a countermeasure: promote Li Shimin, let Li Shimin suppress Li Jiancheng, and control the situation by himself.
The incident had become very clear at this point. Xiao Han didn't know whether he felt relieved or heavy, but he always felt that there was a huge dark cloud hanging over Chang'an.
So after he learned the news, he sold almost all the treasures in his home as quickly as possible, leaving only a few pieces of his favorite gold at the bottom of the box...
After the treasures were sold, Xiao Han personally went to the east and west cities with his soldiers to conduct a sweep. He exchanged the treasures for dozens of carts of various tools and materials, and then left only a few elderly people in the Chang'an house.
Auxiliary soldiers look after the house.
The vast convoy left Chang'an and headed for Sanyuan County.
Xiao Han's team was very long, with dozens of carriages and nearly a hundred people accompanying him. Xiao Han walked out of the carriage and stood at the head of the carriage, occasionally looking back and looking into the distance, feeling proud in his heart.
I earned this in just a few months. Who else in the world can do this?
After leaving Chang'an, I thought about everything clearly and made sure that there was no mistake. I finally felt like I had put down a huge boulder and seemed to want to fly.
In the front, Xiaodong and Lunzi were riding horses and tossing back and forth like they were playing tricks. When they saw a hare, they had to chase it for a long time. If they couldn't catch it, they took out the arrows behind them and shot randomly. In the end, the quiver was empty, and there was not even a hair on the rabbit.
A group of old people burst into laughter.
"That's not how arrows are shot!"
An old man with the best riding skills in the auxiliary army rode over, took Xiaodong's treasured bow with a smile, kicked it with his foot, and a wild goose feather arrow stuck diagonally on the grass bounced into his hand.
As soon as he pulled his arms, the hard bow that was half a man tall was like a full moon. He didn't know how to aim. His right hand that was holding the arrow suddenly let go, and he heard a subtle buzzing sound coming from the bow string.
Looking ahead, a yellow fox jumped out of nowhere and kicked on the ground a few times, and soon stopped moving.
The veteran's arrow has passed directly through its eye, dozens of steps away. With such accuracy, it is not an exaggeration to call it a marksman!
"When did Lao Qiu have this ability? Why didn't I know?" Xiao Han looked at the archery veteran in amazement, feeling very surprised in his heart.
The fat chef came over with a smile: "Master Hou, isn't it strange? In fact, Lao Qiu's family used to be a well-known wealthy family, so he learned martial arts since he was a child, but later he got involved in some things, which caused Lao Qiu's family to be ruined.
He was the only one who ran away, so he joined the army.
"Oh..." Xiao Han nodded and wisely didn't ask anything. It wasn't that he was afraid of getting angry, but there were some things that the person involved didn't say, so it would be bad for you to ask.
Seeing Lao Qiu handing the bow to Xiaodong, Xiao Han suddenly felt that his hands were itchy. Every boy probably has the dream of bending a bow and shooting a big eagle. After rubbing his hands, Xiao Han shouted to Xiaodong: "
Hey, Xiaodong, give me your bow and watch me show off my power, Lord Marquis!"
"Master Hou, this is a three-stone bow..."
Xiaodong rode over and looked at Xiao Han's body. The words "I don't believe it" were almost written on his face!
In fact, he couldn't draw the bow as roundly as Lao Qiu. Originally, he wanted to use a two-stone bow.
But I didn’t expect that this idiot could actually shoot a four-stone bow. Although his arms were sore after just a few pulls, he could still pull a three-stone bow easily. For his own sake, Xiaodong gritted his teeth and chose a three-stone bow for himself.
, it’s a pity that the bow is not fully drawn, and the arrows are light when shot. How can they hit the prey?
Xiao Han looked at Xiaodong with a somewhat unkind look. Although the guy didn't say "Master Hou, you can't pull me away", but that's what he meant in his words and in his eyes... Then he got angry: "How dare you look down on me! When I was a kid,
I’ve been folding strips of paper to make bows and arrows!”
He pulled the bow and arrow from Xiaodong's hand without holding the arrow, so he just pulled it empty without pulling...
Everyone around was looking at Xiao Han quietly, and Xiao Han's old face suddenly couldn't stand it...
"What kind of broken bow is this? Why is it made of wood like an iron plate and so hard? How did you pull it open just now?"
Feeling that he had lost face, Xiao Han started to curse Xiaodong again in his heart, but he didn't dare to show it on his face. His thoughts were racing in his mind, and he had a solution in the blink of an eye...
The right hand that was originally pulling the string slowly slid from the bow string to the bow body and tapped lightly.
"Well, this bow is good, but the bow body made of wood will not be useful when it gets wet. We will study in the future and use steel to make the bow body! In this way, the bow and arrow can play their best role in rainy days and in the south, Lao Zhao
?Old Zhao! Where did he go? Come here and write it down!"
"Oh~~"
The people around suddenly realized: The Marquis was commenting on the shortcomings of the bow, not trying to draw the bow and shoot...
The clever Xiao Lang just glanced at Xiao Han with suspicious eyes, and was immediately slapped on the head by Xiao Da. His suspicious eyes instantly turned into admiration...
