Chapter 4: Subversion (Five Attacks) It can be said that "heroes think alike!" The Hedong envoy's thoughts really made everyone in Youzhou guess that Li Shimin did not come to support his sister and brother-in-law. What he was planning at the moment was, But he is exactly the same as Youzhou Luo Yi
"I'm afraid I won't be able to serve as a shield for a few days. Luo Yi has deep roots in Youzhou, and the others under his command may not be as easy to fool as Liu Ziyi!" After sending away the Youzhou envoy, Li Shimin was in a hurry to return to his home in Taiyuan. There have been a lot of things lately. , brother Jiancheng was ordered to go to Chang'an to contact old friends of the Li family. If he could go back one day earlier, he could help his father more.
He didn't want to just sit back and enjoy the success. The advent of troubled times was a great opportunity for heroes to show off their skills. Even if he couldn't be Sun Zhongmou who made enemy monarchs sleepless, he could at least be like the former general Wang Yangshuang who conquered half of the country for his brother.
"I'm afraid that my second brother didn't even fool General Liu. He hurried back, but found that the situation was very different from what he had expected!" Qier held a cup of hot tea in both hands and looked out of the slowly rising mist. Feeling the warmth in it. I haven't seen it for many years. My brother has grown a beard on his face. He looks more handsome and wiser than before, and there is a faint sense of domineering. But many warm scenes in my memory have now become Gradually become a stranger and will never appear again
"If that's the case, Luo Yi should know how to make a choice. If he acts recklessly, even if his father can't take care of each other for a while, you and your wife can retreat to Hedong to regroup! If the two sides let go of each other again in the future, our Li family will never Lose to him!" Li Shimin smiled and said
"Zhong Jian will never allow the wasteland he worked so hard to cultivate to be destroyed by war again! If Luo Yi really doesn't care about the importance, I will personally go to the city to motivate the soldiers and guard him until he leaves Henan!" Zhen'er took a sip of tea and responded in a low voice.
"My sister is worthy of being the daughter of my Li family. She is as good as a woman!" Li Shimin looked over with a smile, and the look on his face was worth pondering.
"When you marry a husband who is a general, you must also learn a few things about leading soldiers!" Zhen'er stuck out her tongue, with a hint of naughtiness in her smile.
Among the siblings, only Shimin and Wan'er didn't care about the difference between legitimate concubine and concubine. They had always been close to her, so in front of her brother, Xie'er didn't want to pretend to be a lady. After putting aside the red tape, the little girl's true nature was revealed.
"Besides, I am marrying a famous general who is victorious in every battle!" Liu Hongji laughed and praised with his hands.
"Brother Liu, don't make fun of us Li Lang by saying about his military skills. Brother Liu taught half of it step by step!" Xie'er raised the tea bowl to her eyebrows and greeted Liu Hongji from afar.
"That was Zhongjian who promoted me!" Liu Hongji said with emotion when mentioning the past events of that year. "I never taught him any skills, but he helped me a lot when I was in Liaodong!"
"I don't know exactly what the truth is. Anyway, the husband has always been obsessed with the friendship back then!" Zhen'er added with a smile between her eyebrows and in a low voice. As a qualified hostess, she must make all the distinguished guests not feel left out, so After serving tea to Liu Hongji, he turned his attention to his eldest grandson Shunde, who was sitting on the other side of Li Shimin: "How is uncle eldest grandson's health? Have you seen my sister-in-law recently? She is most attached to you. I wonder if her temperament has changed since she got married. Is it done yet?”
"It's okay, it's okay. Miss Lao Er is concerned about your sister-in-law's temperament. It depends on your second brother. In the eyes of me as an elder, the child will still be the same no matter how he changed!" the eldest grandson Shunde replied loudly, with a look on his face.
The smile makes you feel like a spring breeze
"In the eyes of us younger generations, the voices and smiles of our elders will never fade away. Even if we haven't seen them for many years, they are still right in front of us!" Xier smiled and responded as her nephew.
Her current smiles are all in line with the standard of a lady cultivated by Tang Gong's family. If you didn't know the details, you would never have thought that a daughter of a concubine could be so elegant and graceful in her actions.
"Back then, when you left home without saying a word, many people were frightened and didn't know what to do! Only Mr. Tang remained calm. On the surface, he said that he no longer recognized you as his daughter, but secretly he ordered people to protect you.
It must have been at that time that he predicted that you and your wife would be harmonious in the future and your life would be very happy."
"My niece was young and misbehaving at that time, which caused trouble to the elders!" Qier bowed in her seat and responded.
"It's not nonsense, it's because you young people have the vision and knowledge to think about problems further than us old guys!"
"My niece was in a hurry at the time. She took one step at a time, how could she possibly be successful in the long run!" The corners of her mouth raised slightly, and she shook her head to deny the past. She only regarded it as a cherished memory and occasionally took it out to savor the memories of her youth.
Persistence and madness, as for irrelevant people and things, cannot be mixed into this memory in any case.
"If you don't have a long-term vision, how could you choose such a good husband!" Sun Shunde chuckled and shook his head, "He is both civil and military, and he values love and justice. If he is assisted by a Ming Lord, it will not be difficult to leave his name in history and be a prince for generations to come!
"
"In these turbulent times, it's good to be able to protect yourself, but how can you expect more!" Zhen'er sighed and shook his head with a smile, "Uncle Changsun and the second brother should have figured out a long time ago that Zhongjian is not
A man with great ambitions!"
"Second sister is talking like a child again!" Li Shimin shook his head and smiled, "How can he sit in the sacred land of six counties without great ambition? In my opinion, Zhong Jian is so capable and popular, so why not make great achievements in troubled times?
What a pity. Besides, the emperor himself doesn’t want this country, so why would he risk his life to defend it for others?”
This is the theme to be determined today. In the past few days, Li Shimin has said similar things many times, but Qi'er always refused to answer with various reasons. Now the arrow is on the string. In any case, Taiyuan wants to start from Bo
Ling got a positive answer here
Zhen'er raised her head from the teacup, her eyes calm and stubborn, "My husband has always been stubborn. When our Li family was in decline, wouldn't he rather be suspected by the emperor and ostracized by the Yuwen family than deny their in-laws?"
The emperor is in despair, so he must have the same idea in his heart!"
"How can it be compared between then and now?" Li Shimin's eyebrows suddenly jumped up and he said loudly
"In the eyes of the second brother, they are naturally different. But in the eyes of the husband, there is no difference between the person named Yang and the person named Li!" Qier also put away her smile and responded seriously.
The two brothers and sisters looked at each other. They were both surprised that the other's attitude was still thinking about the bond of blood. After a slight stalemate, they looked away from each other and the friendly smiles quickly reappeared on their faces and blew into the room.
The wind is getting colder and colder, making people want to tighten their shoulders
"Zhen'er still likes to argue with others as before. I remember when I was a child, I said that wild geese fly south before the snow falls. You insisted on saying that they fly south after the snow falls. In the end, no one could convince the other, which made the two of them stand on their necks all autumn.
Look into the sky!" Li Shimin shook his head with a smile and tried to change the topic back to flesh and blood.
Talking about what happened when she was a child, Zhen'er also laughed, frowned slightly, and whispered: "Isn't it the same for second brother? He can't tell the difference between wheat and leeks, so he has to calculate the result according to his own judgment and trample on others.
A young young man was forced by his father to go to the door to pay compensation and admit his mistake!"
The atmosphere in the room instantly relaxed a lot, and the strong fragrance of tea penetrated people's nostrils again. Changsun Shunde listened with interest and couldn't help but interject, "I remember that I accompanied the second young master to apologize. That restaurant
The old farmer didn't expect that Tang Guild was so considerate of the people. He was so frightened that he couldn't even speak. He held more than a dozen pieces of meat so that he could chant Buddha's name!"
"Yes, I didn't forget to hang a bag of green apricots that hadn't grown up yet and put them on my saddle. After I got back, my brothers and sisters ate so much that their teeth softened!" Li Shimin recalled with a warm face and a smile.
"That thing is a little sour, but after eating it, the taste is really unforgettable!" Mentioning the taste in her memory, Qier made a clear swallowing motion.
Li Shimin also felt salivation in his mouth and his throat moved up and down. The two brothers looked at each other and laughed at the same time.
"Even now, when I pass by a wild apricot forest, I still want to pick a few. I know they are far from ripe, but I like the sour and astringent taste!"
"There are a lot of wild apricots here in Boling. You can pick a lot every spring. If you like it, second brother, I will send someone to deliver a basket to you later?"
"As a family, sharing everything together is good for no other reason. The key is to have that family affection!" Liu Hongji smiled and interjected.
"It's a pity that we are not talking about dividing apricots!" Qier secretly thought to herself, smiled and lowered her head, and continued to taste the aftertaste of the tea. The maid at home was very good at it. The fine tea powder was boiled and sifted out with salt and various spices.
, I can no longer taste the bitterness of the newly fried food. Instead, there are several flavors intertwined with each other, lingering with a touch of sadness.
Seeing that the atmosphere had almost calmed down, Changsun Shunde put down his tea bowl and turned to the topic, "Actually, a hero like the general must be well aware of the situation at hand. He cannot avoid it. It is just a knot. He should be blamed."
Still lose the world!"
"Uncle Changsun, thank you very much. Li Lang is just a martial artist, how can he be related to the word 'World'! But Uncle Changsun has always had talents in the world, and this time he finally has a chance to display them!" Qier turned his head and gave
Gave Changsun Shunde a bright smile
Even though he was known as an eloquent person, Changsun Shunde was so blinded that his eyes turned black. He took a deep breath and responded with a smile: "The second young lady is so complimentary. There are so many talents under Duke Tang's command now. I'm just following you."
My father-in-law has been around for a little longer, so he can handle things more skillfully than the newcomers! When it comes to talent and ability, there is no comparison with the young people!"
"Since there are already many talents under my father's command, why should Li Lang be involved? Everyone in our family must know that Li Lang is a person who values friendship and loyalty. Even if he doesn't agree with everyone's approach, he will not attack his relatives!"
I also found the omissions in Changsun Shunde's words. He spoke softly and slowly, but sounded confident.
Li Shimin, Changsun Shunde and Liu Hongji are all angry again. The Sui Dynasty has exhausted its energy. After several discussions, the Tang Gongfu has come up with the best plan to end the troubled times. This plan is not only for Tang Gong Li Yuan but also for those who have followed him for many years.
The subordinates and staff are not without benefits, and it can even be regarded as a kind and righteous act for the people of the world.
Before the whole plan is implemented, a key step is to obtain the support of the six Boling counties. After the Li family in Hedong raised an army, the response of the six Boling counties was very important. If Li Xu can join, it will not only greatly increase the strength of the Tang Gong family.
, it will also make many people who are hesitant see clearly that among all the forces vying for the top spot, the Li family is undoubtedly the one with the most hope of winning. As such, celebrities and heroes from the dragon family and those who sell knowledge will swarm in, snowballing to make the Li family win.
The power of family is getting bigger and bigger
"But that will definitely affect Zhongjian's future. If he doesn't do anything, our Li family will really be able to turn our family into a country in the future. How will you and your wife get along with each other?" Liu Hongji relied on his relatively deep friendship with Li Xu.
He tried to speak as directly as possible, "If Zhen'er can't make the decision, why not send a message to the south to see what Zhong Jian plans to do? The whole thing has just started to work anyway. He can think about it for a few more days before replying!"
"
"Brother Hongji's words are reasonable. If my father is willing to wait a few more days, I think Li Lang will understand what he means. But the war in Henan is going on right now. If we can not disturb him, I also hope that my family will try not to disturb him!"
Not wanting to speak too harshly and hurt the already estranged family relationship, he stood up, saluted Liu Hongji and the others, and responded.
Speaking of this, Li Shimin couldn't force him anymore. He stood up and was about to leave, and asked: "How far has Zhong Jian's fight gone? Is it going well? I heard at the banquet a few days ago
He has reorganized the army of various counties.”
"The latest news yesterday is that they captured the two cities of Yuanwu and Yangwu, and successfully blocked Wang Bo's troops who rushed to rescue him halfway. Counting the time, it's almost time to force Li Mi out of the mountain. If he can solve the problem of Wa
"Gang Jun, it is not without benefit to think about the big thing planned by his father and second brother." Although he is in Hebei, Zhen'er still knows the war in Henan as if he is in charge. From the military books sent back by the scouts, the war situation is still in the north.
To develop in a favorable direction, the people that the prince most tabooed were blocked to the east of Xingyang, and Li Mi and others were defeated by him. Their morale was lost by three points before the battle.
At this time, no matter the sky falls in Hebei, she will not let her husband be distracted. What the second brother, eldest grandson Shunde and others said does make sense, but truth is truth. It depends on her husband how to choose. Since she has followed him
, whether he is a hero or a hero, the husband and wife naturally have to support each other and move forward. They cannot watch him fighting for others in the front, but he messes up his position for the so-called founding of the country.
"Zhong Jian is so lucky to marry you, even though we are so far apart, you always take care of him first!" Perhaps because he recalled the taste of green apricots, Li Shimin felt a little sour in his stomach and joked with a smile.
"If the eldest grandson's sister-in-law married you and still cared about her family, would you be very happy?" Li Zhen'er Wan'er took the cloak from the maid and tied it on her second brother's shoulders with her own hands.
"It's a long journey, second brother, take care!" She thought silently in her heart, walked out, and sent Li Shimin and others out of the courtyard.
