In the hall, Li Shan, who was impatient, put on a very interested expression and listened to the chatter of the two people opposite him. If it hadn't been for the ceremony behind him that hadn't been finished yet, he would have been too lazy to listen to these two guys' nonsense.
But there's nothing we can do about it, even though they have the same father and mother, they are serious brothers-in-law after all.
It has been many years since he came to this era. Li Shan has met a large number of children from aristocratic families. Some of these people are loyal, some are innocent, some are cunning, some are insidious, and even some are shameless like Zhao Yuankai, but he has to
Admit it, these people are very capable and extraordinary.
But today, Li Shan met two children from aristocratic families who were average from every angle. This average was not that average, but truly ordinary.
In fact, it's not surprising. Li Shan has traveled all the way hard these years. No matter whether he is a friend or an opponent, there is always no fool. And for a thousand-year-old family like the Cui family of Qinghe, which has deep roots and thousands of people, fools should account for the majority.
Proportional...even if they are Choi Shin's sons.
Although Cui Xin's status within the Qinghe Cui family was not very high before he became a member of Zhongshushe and was granted the title of Prince of Qinghe County, he was, after all, the direct descendant of the eldest family member of the Qinghe Cui family. Cui Heng and Cui Lun had grown up since childhood.
She was taught by a famous teacher, but her qualifications were mediocre and ineffective... This was also a major reason why Cui Xin doted on his daughter. In comparison, Eleven Niang was much better than her two brothers.
"That's right." Li Shan said with a gentle smile: "It's just that I don't have a real job now... Oh, I do have a Sinongqing, but it's mainly for cotton. The two brothers..."
"Counsellor of military aircraft, taking care of documents..." Li Shan said strangely: "Don't the two brothers know that the younger brother has resigned as the marching commander?"
In fact, Li Shan had already received a letter from Wang Renbiao on his way back to Beijing. He knew that his two uncles wanted to use him to become an official. It was better for the eldest brother to speak up. After all, he could still serve as an official in the future and inherit the title of Duke of Qinghe County.
But Cui Lun, the second child, is a bit more difficult.
Li Shan understood Cui Lun's intention without even talking a few words. This guy wanted to get credit from Su Dingfang... Similar things actually happened. This is also the reason why Cui Lun had this intention, Li Kai and Li Demou.
If it weren't for Li Shan, how could Li Kai be appointed as acting county magistrate, and also be transferred to Baiquan magistrate?
But during Li Kai's tenure, he was very skillful in managing politics and was able to manage Xia City. He even went out with him to attack Hu... Li Shan felt a little disdainful in his heart. It was right to want to gild, but he didn't do anything.
If you want to share the credit directly for whatever you have the ability to do, that would be too much!
It has to be said that Li Shan is now the heir, but deep down in his heart, the psychological level is still at the level of the low social class in his previous life... The most annoying thing is that he is the second generation.
"The two brothers are coming to Beijing this time, but they want to take the imperial examination this year?" Li Shan said innocently: "By the way, Zhigui is preparing to take the economics exam when he returns to Beijing this time."
Seeing Cui Lun's face, Li Shan clicked his tongue twice in his heart. Thirty-year-old Ming Jing, fifty-year-old Jinshi... He has no confidence in passing the Ming Jing major. "If brother wants to pass the Ming arithmetic major... I can help you."
Busy."
Cui Heng was still stable, but Cui Lun, who was in his early twenties, couldn't help it anymore, "Isn't Su Dingfang, the commander-in-chief of the Lingzhou Road march, a disciple of Huairen now?"
"Oh, second brother, do you want to go to Lingzhou?" Li Shan sighed in embarrassment, "It would have been easy to say before, but now..."
Sighing again, Li Shanqing said in detail, "This time I surrendered my military power and returned to Beijing. It was probably because of the rumors in the past few days... I hold most of the troops in the Guannei Road and support the troops with self-respect. I won't be here until March."
To march into the army would even be like raising a bandit to show self-respect."
"Although His Majesty conferred the title of King of Wei, and even appointed Brother Fang to succeed him as the Commander-in-Chief of the Lingzhou Road March, how can I, my little brother, live in peace?"
"Now, in the Lingzhou army, in addition to Su Dingfang, there are also generals Zhang Zhongjian, brave generals such as Hou Hongtao, Qu Silang and others, all of whom are subordinates of the younger brother. There are more old Daizhou troops. It is really eye-catching for the younger brother to add people to the army.
, it’s not a good thing for the second brother either.”
Li Shan sighed for the third time, "Your Majesty was humiliated in the battle at Tiantai Mountain. If you can capture the capital of Liang alive, destroy the Liang Kingdom, and then return to the capital, you will definitely be able to sacrifice prisoners at the Imperial Ancestral Temple, so that King Qin won't let Zhuan Mei outdo you. But now...
…”
"To be honest with you two brothers, I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to go into battle again in this life."
Cui Heng and Cui Lun were both stunned. They had no idea about the complicated situation. It was like listening to a book from heaven. They just thought what they said made sense.
"If the two elder brothers want to become officials, the younger brother may go to Xinde to find his brother... Well, the uncle of the Li family is now the governor of the Yuan Dynasty, and he also needs the help of heroes." Li Shan said in a low voice: "But the situation in Chang'an is unstable now, and the prince, King Qin,
The fight for the right to inherit the throne was fierce, so even if you become an official, you cannot stay in the capital."
In comparison, Cui Heng wanted to follow Li Shan in Chang'an, and Cui Lun wanted to go to Su Dingfang to gain credit... Li Shan would not cooperate anyway, and after a few words, both roads were blocked.
.
"Yuanzhou?" Cui Lun was a little tempted. He didn't want to go to Baiquanling Li Kai's place, but it would be appropriate to go to Yuanzhou Governor Li Qianyou's command, and Yuanzhou Governor Zhang Shigui was Li Shan's sworn brother.
“Huairen, there’s no need to worry!”
A cold voice came from outside the door, and Cui Xin walked in with a cold face, "After we get married, you two will go back to Qinghe. How dare you disobey?!"
Cui Heng and Cui Lun both stood up and stood there tremblingly without saying a word. Li Shan saw that Cui Xin's face was not good and then he stood up with a smile and said, "Father-in-law, the two brothers want to become officials and show off their talents.
To promote the name of Qinghe and serve the country...isn't this a good thing?"
The two fools cast grateful glances at their sister-in-law. Cui Xin was speechless. They just don’t want to take you to play!
"Where's the poem?"
This change of topic made Li Shan confused, "What... uh..."
Li Shan suddenly remembered that Cui Xin went to Baiquan County to comfort the army a few months ago and forced himself to write three poems.
Cui Xin sneered: "I'm afraid it has been forgotten a long time ago, right?"
For a while, Li Shan didn't have anywhere to copy, so he had to at least flip through the small book full of pinyin letters. Now he could only explain in a low voice, "I have been busy with the war, so I haven't finished the article yet..."
Cui Xin snorted, "The makeup poem is not finished yet?"
"It's finished." Li Shan didn't think twice, but when he saw Cui Xin's expression getting even uglier... the poem he gave me was not finished, but he had already prepared the reminder poem!
Are you that impatient?!
After a moment of silence, Cui Xin waved his sleeves and said, "Why haven't you set off yet?"
Li Shan was speechless. Indeed, he was leaving to return to Zhuangzi today, but is it really okay for you to chase me away like this?
