Longzhou was a place name that did not surprise Li Yuan. He had heard Li Shan mention it before, either Tongzhou or Longzhou.
Everyone else in the palace was indifferent. In fact, the scope of trying to grow cotton was not very large. Even Jingzhao Mansion could find a place, but there was nothing wrong with Li Shan wanting to go further.
Li Yuan smiled and said: "Longzhou is close to Qizhou, and the summer is very hot. Huairen can..."
After all, they were in the Liangyi Palace. Li Yuan suddenly stopped talking, but Li Shan gave him a look of understanding.
Longzhou is on the northwest side of Qizhou, and the two states are connected by the Qishui River. The waterway from Qiyuan County can directly lead to the Tiantai Mountain area in Guo County, Qizhou, where the famous Renshou Palace was built.
This magnificent palace was built during the Kaihuang period. The chief designer was Yu Wenkai, a general craftsman, and the civil engineering supervisors and supervisors were Feng Lun and Cui Shan... The latter came from the Cui family in Qinghe and was the son of Cui Xin.
cousin.
Renshou Palace was built by Yang Jian, Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty, to escape the summer heat. The jealousy of the lonely queen, who amazed future generations, caused Yang Jian to run away alone and disappeared without a trace. In the end, Yang Jian and Dugu also died here, as did Yang Guang.
He ascended the throne here.
The original Renshou Palace in time and space was later renamed Jiucheng Palace during the Zhenguan period. The world's best regular script "Jiucheng Palace Liquan Ming" came from here. It was written by Wei Zheng and written by Ouyang Xun.
In the early years of Wude, although Chang'an...especially the imperial city was extremely hot every summer, Li Yuan did not go to other places to escape the summer heat. It was not until the fifth year of Wude that Shandong was quickly pacified, and Li Yuan had the habit of going to Renshou Palace to escape the summer heat.
Li Yuan's meaning is obvious, when the time comes, you come to Renshou Palace to make ice... Li Shan actually wanted to grant the ice-making method to the palace people, but Princess Pingyang refused several times in front of Li Yuan.
The matter ended perfectly. Li Shan got away perfectly with the irrefutable reasons of the proposer and the bystanders. He bowed and turned around to leave. He smiled and nodded with Pei Ji, Chen Shuda, Yang Gongren, Feng Lun and other prime ministers, with expressions on their faces.
His smile is impeccable.
But Pei Shiju pursed his lips tightly and looked at Li Shan. He could clearly detect the coldness in the other person's gentle smile, a coldness that made his hands in his sleeves tremble uncontrollably.
Li Yuan was still a little worried, "Huairen will not cause any trouble if he goes to Longzhou..."
"Don't worry, father." Prince Li Jiancheng said with a smile: "Longzhou is still far from the border, with Yuanzhou and Lingzhou in the middle."
Yuanzhou and Lingzhou are both long and narrow from north to south. In other words, if the Turks knew that Li Shan was in Longzhou, they wouldn't be stupid enough to come and kill him... Don't worry, they will definitely not cause any trouble.
Li Shimin noticed that Li Yuan was looking over and the corners of his mouth moved, "In Huairen's words, he was forced every time."
Li Yuan almost burst into laughter... You are innocent every time, but in the end, your opponent is unlucky every time.
"Your Majesty, the commander-in-chief of Lingzhou Road Marching Army has jurisdiction over the troops in Lingzhou, Huizhou, and Yuanzhou to resist the Turks." Chen Shuda said loudly: "The King of Handan is behind Yuanzhou as a backup..."
Li Jiancheng's face suddenly dropped. No matter who he chose as the Marching Commander of Lingzhou Road, the person who took up the post would be either a disciple of the East Palace or someone attached to the East Palace. Even worse, he would be a direct descendant of Li Yuan like Li Shan or Li Jing... which is equivalent to a hidden position.
On the East Palace side, at least they are definitely not from the lineage of King Qin.
Chen Shuda's words were saying that if Lingzhou was defeated, Handan King Li Huairen might be able to save the defeat. This showed that the prime minister did not trust the abilities of the candidates proposed by the East Palace.
During the Shandong War, Xiabo was defeated and several states fell. Li Shan planned and planned to turn the tide. The year before last, Li Gaoqian abandoned his army and fled first. Nearly ten thousand Tang troops were defeated. It was Li Shan who rushed to Yanmen Pass to gather the remaining soldiers and resist the Turks.
But it’s hard for Li Jiancheng to say anything... What can he say?
Accusing the other party of being unfounded?
But isn't it the prime minister's duty to think about defeat before thinking about victory?
In the original time and space, there were five dynasties and ten kingdoms, and warlord wars... The Northern Song Dynasty and subsequent dynasties increasingly emphasized centralization and the supreme authority of the imperial power. But before that, the prime ministers, not to mention the princes, were the emperors.
You cannot reprimand at will.
Although he felt that Chen Shuda's words were a bit harsh, Li Yuan could only smile and encourage him a few words... and then brought the topic back to the selection of Lingzhou Road Marching Director.
This time Li Yuan stopped talking nonsense and appointed Li Shenfu, the king of Xiangyi, as the commander-in-chief of the march. However, he appointed a deputy, Duan Decao, the commander-in-chief of Pingyuan County in Yanzhou.
Duan Decao, a descendant of the Guzang Duan family, was the son of Duan Shao, a famous general in the Northern Qi Dynasty. It is said that the Duan family of Dali hundreds of years later came from this family... Well, it was the family where the royal family members liked to become a monk and also liked to be merciful.
Well, what a coincidence... Duan Shao served as an official in the Northern Qi Dynasty and went through the Battle of Guang'a, the Battle of Yecheng, the Battle of Hanling, and the Battle of Mangshan. But this man had a problem, he was extremely lustful, and he once
He snatched someone from Gao Cheng's hand... You must know that all the Gao clan members in the Northern Qi Dynasty are perverts.
However, this Duan Decao was Li Yuan's old man in Jinyang. He had followed him to attack the Turks in Shuozhou for many years. Later, he raised troops in Jinyang and served as the general manager of Yanzhou... He can be called the lifelong enemy of Liang Shidu, the only separatist force in the world.
After Li Tang founded the country, Liang Shidu first went to Lingzhou to fight the autumn wind, but he did not take advantage. In those years, the famous general Yang Ze and Hongnong Yang's children were stationed in Lingzhou successively. Later, Yang Shidao took over, and then Ren.
City King Li Daozong.
Therefore, Master Liang set his sights on Yanzhou, but ended up running into an iron wall.
In the second year of Wude, Duan Decao defeated Liang Shidu at Yezhuling. He pursued for two hundred miles and captured thousands of people. He forced Liang Shidu to rush to Wuyuan County to lobby Chuluo Khan to send troops... However, although the latter had
Emperor Xiaowen of Wei was so ambitious that he died suddenly before sending troops.
In the next few years, Liang Shidu repeatedly invaded Yanzhou, and was defeated by Duan Decao every time. He did not take any advantage. At the worst time, he fled in embarrassment with more than a dozen personal guards.
Although Duan Decao did not have great achievements and did not have many troops in Yanzhou, he was good at fighting and planning. He was a very important figure among the frontier generals in the Tang Dynasty... and this young man came to the imperial court and was regarded as a direct descendant of Li Yuan.
"Duan Decao is the deputy general manager of the march." Li Yuan said slowly: "The governor of Yan, Shi Liang, is the general manager."
Li Shimin calculated in his mind that Duan Decao had been able to resist the invasion of Liang Division for years with a small number of troops, and he was good at defending. He was indeed a very suitable person. But if the Turks invaded, could Duan Decao and Li Shenfu cooperate well?
Li Shimin was not too optimistic about this, but he didn't care. From the corner of his eye, he kept looking at Pei Shiju, who seemed a little strange... The old Prime Minister seemed to be trembling?
Not long after, the discussion was over. Prince Li Jiancheng was proud of the success of the marching commander of Lingzhou Road, while Li Shimin hurriedly left the palace and went to Tiance Mansion, where he immediately found several close aides.
"Longzhou?" Fang Xuanling said in surprise: "Remember that you said it wasn't Longzhou before, right?"
"It's Tongzhou, on the bank of the Yellow River." Du Ruhui turned to look at Ling Jing, who was also confused.
Li Shimin thought for a while and explained everything in detail about today's Liangyi Palace. Before he finished, Ling Jing suddenly realized and said quietly: "Pei Shiju's only son, Pei Xuanji, is now serving as a military official in Longzhou."
