"The cicada wakes up before the autumn wind moves..."
"And that sentence, I'm drunk and want to sleep, please go away."
Looking at Li Kai, Chang Sun Chong, Gao Jixiong and others in front of him, Li Shan felt a little headache. Drunkness made things worse, drunkenness made things worse!
I will be really careful in the future... But you can't blame me, Li Shan is quite aggrieved.
Why is this body's alcohol-decomposing enzyme so weak? If it were a previous life, this little wine wouldn't be enough to rinse your mouth!
The day before yesterday, I was very drunk alone at Changsun Mansion, and accidentally became so bright that I almost blinded the onlookers.
At first, they were only half-believing, but the disciples of Prince Qin's Mansion knew it the next day... everything he said was right.
So today, a group of people came to Zhujiagou to visit, and I don’t know who suddenly mentioned the two lines of Li Shan’s drunken poem the day before yesterday...
"To tell you the truth, I am not good at poetry and prose." Li Shan said sincerely: "The teacher was teaching me back then, and I asked for advice. The teacher was drunk, but I am drunk and want to sleep. Please go away..."
As for the others, Li Kai looked at him with a strange look... He didn't quite believe this.
They have been communicating with each other for more than half a year, and Li Kai has long since discovered that this friend with the same surname has a very complex knowledge and a very broad knowledge. He can pick up on whatever is said, and he is also very familiar with history books.
On the contrary, some common sense is not very clear, and it feels a bit like the birth of a hermit in Zhongnan Mountain.
Li Shan was also at a loss. He remembered many poems, but he couldn't quite remember the entirety of these two remaining poems!
Afraid that people would ask more questions, Li Shan quickly changed the subject and said, "Brother Zhangsun is also here today."
"You should come and pay a visit." Changsun bowed and saluted. He had always been very arrogant, but today Changsun Chong invited him, and he accepted without hesitation.
After a few words of greeting, Li Shan's eyes fell on a young man behind him. He was only twelve or thirteen years old, with a slender face and fair skin. He was looking around curiously to see the house design and interior decoration of Li's house and this era. The difference is quite big.
"This is Du He, the second son of Scholar Du." Fang Yizhi introduced, "I am traveling today and invite him to come with me."
Among the staff of the Prince of Qin's Palace, Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling, and Du Ruhui were the most favored and close to Li Shimin, and their descendants were also quite close.
However, Du Ruhui's eldest son Du Gou and Li Shan did not deal with them. In the past two months, the descendants of Prince Qin's family often came to Zhujiagou, but Du Gou never came.
Li Shan and Du He bowed to each other, but they were thinking in their hearts, it seems that this is the person who relied on Prince Li Chengqian to rebel and implicate the Du family...?
After another round of greetings, Changsun raised his hands and said, "When I come to visit, I should pay my respects to Ling Ci."
In the main hall, Li Shan and Li Kai introduced everyone present to Mr. Zhu.
What surprised everyone was that although Zhu was dressed in commoner clothes and had a hairpin, he talked and laughed freely, was calm and knew all the allusions very well.
Zhu spoke clearly about Changsun Sheng, who killed two birds with one stone, Fang Xuanling, who became a Jinshi at the age of 18 and became famous all over the world, Du Zheng, who served as the Jingzhao Du family in the Wei, Zhou and Sui Dynasties, and introduced Gao Jixi. Suddenly he frowned slightly.
"Northern Qi clan?"
"Exactly." Li Kai nodded and said, "My great-grandfather was the cousin of Emperor Shenwu of the Northern Qi Dynasty."
Zhu nodded slightly, she knew that Emperor Shenwu was Gao Huan, the founder of Northern Qi.
Li Shan turned his head and observed Zhu's expression carefully. He felt that at that moment, it seemed that his mother was just asking casually, but in fact, his emotions were fluctuating extremely violently.
The eldest grandson rushed forward two steps and saluted: "Uncle, the news has spread. The Turks are marching southward. Jieli Khan led an army of more than 100,000 to the east of Hedong. He sent partial troops to attack the pass. This morning, there was an urgent report to Beijing. There was a big earthquake in the pass. fall."
"Dazhen Pass was lost?" Zhu was startled, glanced at his son beside him, and explained: "Dazhen Pass is an important town in Guanzhong, only five hundred miles away from Chang'an."
Li Shan blinked. Five hundred miles sounds quite far. If it is a high-speed rail, within two hours, how long does it take to ride a horse in this era?
"The "Book of Wei" records that Xia Houyuan, the commander of the Dian Military Academy, paid five hundred in three days and one thousand in six days."
After hearing Li Kai's words, Li Shan snorted, five hundred in three days, one thousand in six days... That means, including the time for military reports to be delivered, the Turkic army may reach Chang'an at any time!
Has this ever happened in history?
Changsun Chong comforted him: "However, both Tiance Mansion and Donggong have sent troops, and only the Turkic troops have invaded Guanzhong."
"But after all, the Great Shock Pass has been breached. I'm afraid that there will be chaos outside the city these days, so I asked my aunt to go into the city to take shelter."
"Going into the city to escape?" Zhu's face showed no expression at all. She turned to look at her son, "What do you mean, sir?"
What a misunderstanding, I really didn’t want to go to the city to escape... Li Shan smiled with difficulty, turned his head and cast a resentful look at Li Kai, he said he wouldn’t go to the city that day!
"A certain person and his mother stayed in Zhujiagou for more than half a year and benefited a lot. It is not a righteous act to abandon the villagers at this time." Li Shan said sincerely: "The Tang Dynasty was founded not long ago, but the soldiers were sharp and there were few enemies. Since the King of Qin has already sent out troops, there must be no worries."
Everyone was a little disapproving. Although they regarded Li Shan as a friend, they were all descendants of aristocratic families, and the villagers of Zhujiagou really had no weight in their eyes.
Only Li Kai, who came to Zhujiagou the most frequently, could vaguely guess that Zhujiagou was mainly surnamed Zhu, and the Zhu family was also named Zhu. Li Shan, mother and son went north to settle here. I am afraid it was deliberate.
Moreover, Zhu Wei, the patriarch of Zhujiagou, took great care of Li Shan. When Changlepo was attacked a few days ago, Li Shan did not bring his followers, and they were all punished afterwards.
Mrs. Zhu nodded slightly in approval, gave Li Shan a satisfied look, stopped talking about the matter, and returned to the backyard soon.
Li Shan thanked him with his hands, "Don't worry, the imperial court has sent troops, and the Turks will not harass Jingzhao."
"It's not that the Turks will invade Jingzhao, but that food and grass are not available, and it will be difficult to provide disaster relief for a while. I'm just afraid that the refugee riots will be difficult to control." Li Kai thought for a moment, "I'll send some weapons later, and let Uncle Guo stay."
Guo Pu is a general of the Li family and the leader of Li Keshi's bodyguard. He once taught Li Kai and his three brothers.
This time when the Prince of Qin went on an expedition, Li Keshi did not accompany the army, so Guo Pu happened to come to Zhujiagou to lend a helping hand.
Changsun promised to bring some weapons, and Gao Xingyi said he could bring a pair of Mingguang armor. Li Shan thanked him again and said, "You should return as soon as possible to prevent any unexpected events."
Just when everyone was about to go out, Xiaoman came in holding a tea tray.
There were only four bowls of tea, and there were seven or eight people in the hall. Xiao Manzheng was at a loss. Li Shan smiled and said, "Brother Changsun and Brother Du are both here for the first time. Please give me a taste."
Du He's face changed slightly, "Take bites from both bowls!"
"I've heard Da Lang and Xi Jinping mention it before. Such skill is incredible." Changsun was amazed and said regretfully: "It's a pity that the tea set is vulgar. Someone will send a set of tea set tomorrow."
After sending the group away, Li Shan put his arm around Guo Pu's shoulders and said, "Uncle Guo, I will rely on you this time."
Guo Pu felt a little uncomfortable, took half a step back, bowed and said, "You should do your best."
