Chai Shao smiled and gestured to Hou Hongtao, Zhang Zhongjian and others who were saluting to stand up. "Sanlang is an old acquaintance. Huairen mentioned that these two were members of the Guanzhong Rebels back then."
"Zeng and my uncle followed the princess to launch an army in the pass." He Fang said respectfully.
Thinking of the storm of those years, Chai Shao was not only silent, but most of the generals who followed his wife in the army did not end well. Except for the brothers Qiu Shili and Qiu Xinggong who joined the Qin Palace early, Xiang Shanzhi later defected to the Western Qin Dynasty and fought in Qianshuiyuan.
After his death, Li Zhongwen, who was in a high position, secretly communicated with Chuluo Khan and was sentenced to death for treason. He Panren had an affair with the Hu people and was executed by Li Shentong, the king of Huai'an.
"Huairen's reputation has spread throughout the country, not to mention his literary skills and military skills. The most important thing is benevolence and righteousness. You all rose up because of Huairen. In the future, you should do your best to serve the imperial court."
Chai Shao's words were quite tactful, but the few people in front of him are not stupid, and they all know that they are beating themselves up... You are from Li Shanjin, and you have marks on your body that can never be washed away. Even if you can
If you are granted a title and become an official, you must not betray your master and join another country.
After all, the people in front of them are different from Su Dingfang and Wang Junhao. The latter and Li Shan have the same political stance. If it is revealed that Li Shan has joined the army of the King of Qin, Su Dingfang and Wang Junhao will definitely stick to it, but it is hard to say for these people.
.
Being able to serve as a general, a Zhonglang general, and a long history in the Beiya imperial army that is in charge of the imperial palace has enough qualifications to be paid attention to and recruited by the East Palace... Originally, Li Shan thought that he would be a Zhonglang general at most, but he did not expect that Li Yuan appointed Zhang Zhongjian to fill in.
General Youjianmen was appointed because Qian Jiulong was appointed as the governor of Jingzhou and there was a vacancy.
There are also Hou Hongtao, who holds a title, as the Zhonglang General of the Left Qianniu Guard, and He Fang as the Chief Shi of the Right Qianniu Guard. These two positions are already high in the Sixteen Guards system.
In fact, judging from the current situation, if Li Shimin wants to stage a Xuanwumen coup, he really can't get around Li Shan and Su Dingfang. In the past six months, Su Dingfang has enriched Beiya with his and Li Shan's old departments in Daizhou and Shuozhou.
The Forbidden Army sent many of Li Shan's personal guards in again this time... Li Shimin wanted to send his father to the lake to enjoy the breeze, but without Li Shan's nod, it would never be possible.
Zhang Zhongjian and Hou Hongtao all bowed their heads and said, "I will do my best and dare not violate it."
Chai Shao glanced at Zhang Zhongjian. Among the three, he was the most talented general and the most eager. Because of his background, his appearance had not improved for many years, so he couldn't wait any longer.
The other two people actually knew that the Prince Consort's words had cut off the relationship between their group of people and Princess Pingyang... But it didn't matter, anyway, from the current point of view, Princess Pingyang and his wife were almost the same as Lang Jun.
It's one.
Well, the four people here are talking, and Li Shan is just playing with his two children. He is holding the two-year-old Chai Zhewei in his left hand, and the five-year-old Chai Lingwu is holding Li Shan's thigh and insisting on climbing up.
"Huairen!" Chai Shao scolded angrily: "Dalang Erlang usually observes etiquette, but when I meet you..."
"Why are you so nervous at such a young age?" Li Shan interrupted with a smile, "Have you finished talking?"
Chai Shao took a deep look. He had just been waiting for Li Shan to interrupt, but he didn't expect that this guy was just having fun and said nothing.
Hou Hongtao, it's easy to say where he is, but Zhang Zhongjian has been following Li Shan for a year, and he often goes in and out of the imperial city with him, so it is impossible that he doesn't know Li Shan's political stance.
If it is really impartial, in fact, what Chai Shao said just now is basically nonsense... Li Shan has outstanding achievements, excluding Pei Shiju, an unknown mortal enemy, no matter whether the prince or the King of Qin ascends the throne, Zhang Zhongjian, Hou Hongtao and others will definitely have a smooth career.
, in fact, they have no reason to betray Li Shan.
After all, Chai Shao still doubted Li Shan's political stance... He had been able to confirm that Li Shan had joined the King of Qin before, but this time Ren Gui was recommended by Li Shan as the general manager of Longzhou, and then as the general manager of the Lingzhou Road March, and was defeated several times.
Liang Jun and Donggong regained a victory, which made Chai Shao suspicious.
Is it really possible to be impartial?
Or maybe hedging your bets?
Li Shan could see clearly what Chai Shao was thinking. In fact, military reports that the battle was going well came in one after another, and many people looked at Li Shan thoughtfully. This was one of the reasons why he took sick leave.
.
But it’s painful in my heart, it’s really painful!
It seemed that Li Shan had recommended Ren Gui that day, but judging from Li Yuan's attitude, the quick edict to appoint Ren Gui as the general manager of Longzhou, and Chen Shuda's private reminder... it was obvious that Li Yuan had made a decision.
Li Shan later speculated that Chen Shuda's reminder in Renshou Palace that day might have been hints from Li Yuan.
"Brother Dingfang has recovered and will be able to take care of things tomorrow." Li Shan explained: "All you need to remember to do your duties is to do all kinds of things...According to the rules, others will not be able to find fault."
To put it bluntly, the person standing behind Zhang Zhongjian, Hou Hongtao and even Su Dingfang is Li Shan. This is their confidence.
"According to the rules?" Chai Shao joked: "Let's talk about auxiliary equipment. Brother Xuanling refuses to leave the palace?"
Li Shan coughed twice, "Sanlang and the others are more flexible than Brother Dingfang..."
In fact, something like this will never happen again. The Tiance Mansion suffered heavy losses in the battle at Tiantai Mountain, leaving a lot of positions vacant. Changsun Wuji and Fang Xuanling have already taken up their positions, and they will no longer be subject to any restrictions when entering and exiting the imperial city.
Restricted.
In this battle, in addition to the loss of many generals in the Tiance Mansion, there were also many casualties among counselors. Su Xu, one of the eighteen bachelors, died in the revolt.
Chu Liang, whose father was also one of the Eighteen Bachelors, lost a hand and had to choose to become an official and return home. At the same time, Xue Shou, who had been ill for a long time and joined the army, died of illness in Chang'an last month.
Just as Chai Shao was about to joke a few more words, a maid came out from the backyard and whispered a few words.
"Huairen, go in."
"Third Sister is awake?" Li Shan said happily, "There are still things that need to be decided by Third Sister."
Chai Shao signaled Zhang Zhongjian and others to step back, and took Li Shan into the backyard, "These days I sleep during the day and at night. I get dizzy and vomit from time to time. I feel very haggard."
"It will be fine in two months." Li Shan entered the room and looked at Princess Pingyang who was leaning on the soft couch, "Third Sister..."
Before even saying hello, Princess Pingyang straightened up and said, "Thanks to you this time, otherwise..."
"What are you talking about, Third Sister?" Li Shan hurriedly stepped forward to support me, "How can Third Sister treat me, and His Majesty treats me as well? How can I not do my best?"
Chai Shao sighed: "If Huairen hadn't led more than a hundred guards across the river and sneaked into Tiantai Mountain, the defenders would have been unable to withstand the fierce attack of Liang Jun. At that time, we were still dozens of miles away from Renshou Palace."
Princess Pingyang said bitterly: "How can my eldest brother be worthy of being a prince with such conduct?"
Chai Shao glanced at Li Shan and said, "In today's court meeting, Your Majesty is concerned about King Qin's injury, but orders him to fulfill his duties."
Li Shan didn't know about this yet, so he looked confused and said, "Follow your duties?"
