The two brothers Cheng Chumo also hurried back. This time Li Xiang showed off his power on the plateau. The two brothers really regretted being in Chang'an City. If they had known that this was the case, they would have followed Li Xiang there no matter what.
Isn’t it just shameless? Can this thing still bother us?
It's a pity that Li Xiang didn't have enough people around him at that time, and Cheng Yaojin didn't allow them to pass. You two already have your own status. No matter how profound your achievements are, at your current age, I'm afraid
If you can't get promoted, you might as well stay in Chang'an City.
"Father-in-law, during this expedition to Goguryeo, you old men didn't even touch a single one?"
After three glasses of wine, the people here talked more casually. At Changsun Wuji's place just now, Li Xiang had to be very strict in doing things, so he felt a little uncomfortable all over. But when he arrived at Cheng Yaojin's place, he didn't have that many worries.
Be careful. After all, Cheng Yaojin is a rough guy. He drank too much and was shirtless. What's more, the younger generations in the family have already gone in anyway, so it's just the four of them drinking here.
When Li Xiang said this, the two Cheng brothers also listened with their ears pricked up. Although they also wanted to get some information from their father, Cheng Yaojin knew that these two guys didn't know what to say, so they usually just listened.
Nothing was said, but with Li Xiang's arrival, the news slowly leaked out, and there was no need to keep it so tight.
"Your Majesty is marching eastward to Goguryeo. He needs his own talents in every place. Do you think he can trust you?"
Cheng Yaojin picked up a peanut. There were not many such things in the Tang Dynasty. It was specially cultivated by Li Xiang. If we follow the normal time, it would have taken hundreds of years to appear. Now,
Now I can enjoy it in advance. According to what Li Xiang said, drinking white wine and eating peanuts is not to mention how comfortable it is.
At first, the people in Chang'an City were not used to it, but later they got used to it. If they had some liquor without peanuts, they would feel a little uncomfortable. Of course, the price of this thing is also very expensive, almost a penny.
One piece of money.
Although the price of food in Chang'an City has increased now, one penny can still buy one and a half catties of food. One and a half catties of food can be eaten with one mouthful. Ordinary people do not have such an appetite, and only high-ranking officials have such appetite.
enjoyment.
Thinking about what Cheng Yaojin said, the three young people nodded. Even though Li Shimin often encouraged his younger generations, if there were people he trusted, it was probably Cheng Yaojin and his old brothers. When he left the capital,
At that time, these people had to sit in the capital. Except for General Li Jing, no one left moved. General Qin Qiong was on the Tuyuhun grassland, helping the entire Tang Dynasty to guard the southwest. The remaining group of people also started
Mobilization is for the sake of peace in the rear.
"Niu Jinda has a good relationship with me. If you need anything, just go to him directly. Su Dingfang's boy is also fine. You have to give me face no matter what."
Cheng Yaojin knew that the relationship between these two generals and Li Xiang was average, and they could only meet each other once at most. If it had been in the past, Cheng Yaojin could have invited these two people here, and then introduced them very solemnly.
Two people, it is a pity that this situation is not feasible now. If we do this now, a clique will definitely be labeled as a clique. If the emperor wants to use the topic to show off, Cheng Yaojin has nothing to be afraid of, but don't
Just involve Li Xiang.
"My father is right. If there is anything your Highness can't handle, just send my eldest brother."
Cheng Chuliang said with a smile beside him, Li Xiang thought there was something going on here, and looked up to see Cheng Chumo's face was red. Cheng Chumo had originally engaged in a marriage, but later his wife fell ill and died, and Cheng Yaojin found another one for him. Then
She is Niu Jinda’s concubine.
Niu Jinda went out to fight, and lost contact with his family at that time. Later, all his family members died due to the war. Who knew that there was also a concubine sister who was raised in a relative's house. Of course, she was very different in age from Niu Jinda. Later Niu Jinda found out about this.
After the incident, someone was sent to the capital.
Niu Jinda also wanted to find a good person in Chang'an City, but everyone looked down upon his status as a concubine, so the first and second trips were delayed. It happened that Cheng Chumo had died of his wife, so someone pulled the strings, and Niu Jinda also wanted to find someone within the army.
I had a helper, so I agreed to the marriage.
"Get out of here, you don't know what Niu Jinda is like. This guy is very strict, especially when it comes to military matters. Don't expect to open a back door for you."
Cheng Yaojin said angrily, he had been in the army for a long time, and Cheng Yaojin knew exactly what kind of temper the generals of the Tang Dynasty had. According to their contributions to the Tang Dynasty, Niu Jinda and Cheng Yaojin
It's not much different, but Niu Jinda's and Cheng Yaojin's positions are different now, just because their relationship with Li Shimin is different.
If Li Yuan, Emperor Gaozu of the Tang Dynasty, had been the emperor, Erniu Jinda's position might be almost the same as that of Cheng Yaojin. But now that Li Shimin is in charge of the world, he will of course promote his own people. Naturally, Cheng Yaojin and his group of old brothers will be promoted. Why did they fight so hard in the first place?
There was a change in the Xuanwu Sect. On the one hand, it was for Li Shimin, and on the other hand, it was also for a good future for himself. Niu Jinda was not involved in this matter, how could he get the credit for it?
"We don't need a back door when we march and fight. In fact, as long as you don't cause trouble for me on the battlefield, I will be a deputy general this time, but I don't know what team I will lead when setting off."
When Li Xiang said this, he deliberately looked at Cheng Yaojin next to him. This is the rule of the Tang Dynasty. If you brought a group of soldiers last time, then this time will definitely be different from the last time. As for the distribution
Which part depends on these old men in the military.
"Don't look at me. If you can be accommodating, I will put all the people under my command in here for you. The people you bring this time should be pretty good, but you have to be careful with some people. King Wu's people
be careful."
The smile on Cheng Yaojin's face has disappeared. Everyone knows what happened in the hall. Although Li Xiang did not compete with King Wu, according to the emperor's wishes, the two must be the protagonists of the competition, so Cheng Yaojin has
This reminder, but the King of Wu has never had military power, so what is the use of being careful about his people?
Li Xiang knew that this was one of the reasons Cheng Yaojin reminded...
