In the hall, Li Dewu stepped forward solemnly, raised his hands flat, and took the letter from King Qi.
From the first day he became an official, Li Dewu was trying his best to gain a new leg.
From the day he left Chang'an with the army, Li Dewu chose the East Palace.
He racked his brains to establish a friendship with Wei Zheng, just to borrow some power, but he did not expect that he would get such an opportunity before he could establish a friendship with Wei Zheng.
It was already afternoon and they were about to set off. Li Dewu bowed to each other and was about to leave. Suddenly, a man strode from outside and said, "Wei Xuancheng is washing horses for the Prince of the East Palace. He is mobilizing manpower and has to say hello in advance. Brother Yuwen despises a certain Li family in Longxi." Danyang room?!"
King Qi turned his head in shock. Li Qianyou, furious, was staring at King Qi's palace guard Yu Wenbao.
"I don't dare." Yu Wenbao didn't expect that Li Qianyou would mention this matter in front of the King of Qi. He paused and said calmly: "This dynasty always needs to recruit officials to accompany the army when transporting grain and grass. I just choose among the officials who accompany the army." He is just a person who is good at arithmetic."
In terms of family background, Yuwen naturally cannot be compared with the Li family in Longxi, but Yuwenbao is not afraid. Firstly, he can stand up. Secondly, after all, Yuwen is from a wealthy Xianbei family and has deep roots in the court.
Li Dewu quietly glanced at Yu Wenbao, who quietly took a few steps back, but did not leave.
Yu Wenbao cupped his hands and said, "Brother Qianyou, I'm just asking you who is the most knowledgeable. Everyone recommends Li Shan..."
"Li Shan!?" A slightly sharp voice suddenly sounded.
Wei Zheng, who was frowning, suddenly stood up, stared at Yu Wenbao and shouted: "Li Shan is just accompanying the army to take care of the accounts. He is not a Chang'an County official, nor is he a subordinate of the Qi Prince's Palace or the Bingzhou Governor's Palace. How can he risk going to Hebei?"
Yu Wenbao was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at Li Qianyou. That man was from the Chang'an County Government. Wasn't he an official or clerk?
"Indeed not." Li Qianyou said with a gloomy face: "A month ago, the refugees caused chaos in the capital. This man is proficient in arithmetic. He is just asking for help. Your Highness also knows this."
Li Yuanji scratched his chin, "Uh, is that Li Shan?"
"Yes, this talent training is not just about math." Rong Jiusi, a soldier in the Qi Prince's office, looked at Yu Wenbao with an unkind expression, "Brother Yuwen is too much like Meng Lang."
Li Dewu, standing by the door with his ears pricked up, had no expression on his face, but his right hand unconsciously crumpled the letter that he had just regarded as a treasure into a ball.
But it was just transporting food and grass, and it was not a 10% chance of death. Unexpectedly, Li Qianyou, Wei Zheng, and Rong Jiusi jumped out one by one to attack Yu Wenbao, and even King Qi criticized him.
Why?
Why?
My father and ancestors are famous all over the world. My father-in-law's family is the Pei family of Hedong. What does he have?
Although during the march, Li Dewu found several opportunities to inquire about some deeds from Rong Jiusi, he always chose to despise him... It was only now that he discovered that the eldest son whom he had mercilessly abandoned actually had such weight. .
Looking at Yu Wenbao, who was being glared at by several people, Li Dewu was about to leave. He was not afraid that Yu Wenbao would drag him out... I just casually mentioned the officials who needed to learn general mathematics to escort the grain and fodder, and the officials from Chang'an County government who accompanied the army this time , I heard that someone is proficient in arithmetic.
Just when Li Dewu was about to leave quietly, a clear voice sounded, "Is this Li Shan of Dongshan Temple you are talking about?"
Li Dewu paused. He recognized this person. Although he was not well-known in the court, he was one of the three giants of the King of Qin's lineage in Shaanxi Province. He was Zuo Cheng, Shangshu of Daxingtai of Shaanxi Province, and Han Liang, Shangshu of Hubu.
Li Dewu was so excited!
What's good about him?
It wasn't enough that he actually provoked the staff of Prince Qi's Palace and the East Palace to bring the matter to Prince Qi, but the subordinates of Prince Qin's Palace also wanted to jump out?
Han Liang took a few steps forward with a smile, "I have heard about the name Li Shan of Dongshan Temple for a long time, but I didn't expect that he would follow the army here and become famous in the capital. His Highness the King of Qin also praised him several times..."
After hearing these words from Han Liang, King Qi's face darkened. He didn't care about Li Shan's life or death, but he snatched this from his second brother. Even if he died, he would have to die in Prince Qi's palace... uh , this is just Li Yuanji’s own idea.
Wei Zheng stared at Yu Wenbao, "When did you set off?"
"Send someone to recover immediately."
"I got on the boat and went to White Horse two hours ago..."
"In two hours, on the Yellow River, we are faster than the galloping horses. I'm afraid I won't be able to catch up." King Qi said decisively: "It's just transporting grain and grass. Daoxuan and Shi Wanbao led their troops to garrison Yizhou and Xingzhou. They will definitely not be able to catch up." Something happened."
After hearing these words, Li Dewu raised a smile on his lips and quietly exited the hall.
"Since you are following the army, you must obey orders." King Qi shouted impatiently: "This matter does not need to be discussed further."
Wei Zheng snorted and was the first to leave with a wave of his sleeves. He originally wanted to introduce people to the East Palace, but unexpectedly Li Dewu jumped out first, and then was forced by King Qi to go to Hebei Road... He and Li Shan had discussed that Qi If the king refuses to help, the next war in Hebei may be ruined.
The second person to leave with a gloomy face was Li Qianyou. Over the past month or so, his attitude towards Li Shan had gradually changed from alienation to intimacy, but this was not the reason for his anger.
As a younger brother of the Danyang House of the Li family in Longxi, Li Qianyou was more diplomatic than Li Jing and Li Keshi. He knew that the King of Qi only liked Li Shan because the King of Qin had praised him several times, and did not really value Li Shan as a person.
Li Qianyou also knew that Li Shande's third brother Li Keshi valued him and was even introduced to the backyard to congratulate his wife on her birthday. On that day, she was also favored by Princess Qin.
Li Qianyou was a subtle person. He noticed something from the attitude of Li Keshi, Li Kai and others towards Li Shan, and also noticed something from the King of Qin's actions of praising Li Shan several times but not summoning Li Shan to the King of Qin's palace.
Although he did not know the inside story, Li Qianyou was keenly aware that Li Keshi and King Qin were both insiders, and Li Shan would definitely be a very important chess piece in the future.
Therefore, Li Qianyou reconciled with Xinni and took Li Shan with him this time, but he made it clear that he was not recruiting for the King of Qi.
Before leaving the hall, Li Qianyou glared at Han Liang. He thought that all the people under the command of King Qin were heroes, but it seems that this may not be the case today.
Han Liang over there also realized that the King of Qi knew about Li Shan, and when he mentioned that Li Shan was praised by the King of Qin... he was obviously doing a disservice.
If Li Shan died in the battle in Hebei, apart from other things, the Changsun family would not be able to explain it to them. They saved the eldest son of Changsun Wuji.
At this moment, on the turbid Yellow River, Li Shan stood on the deck facing the wind, looking at Wuling County from a distance, which he could no longer see clearly.
Some regrets, but also some happiness.
Li Shan regretted not establishing a relationship with Yu Zhining in advance. The letter written by Li Keshi to Yu Zhining is still in the package and has not been given to Yu Zhining so far.
The reason why he kept the letter in his hand was partly because Li Shan wanted to have some backup, and partly because he did not want to be involved in the sharp conflict between King Qi and Daxingtai of Shaanxi Province.
Fortunately, it was probably because of his good relationship with Wei Zheng that Li Dewu did not take action directly, but sent himself to the place of the Fourth Battle... Although there was no evidence, Li Shan felt that the free heart testimonial was enough.
And since Li Dewu had this idea, Li Shan felt that it was more appropriate to go to Hebei than to stay in Shaanxi Province.
Staying in Shaanxi Province, unless you find Yu Zhining and hide in Luoyang directly, it is difficult to say whether it is safe or not, but in that case, even Li Qianyou will probably fall out with him if you don't talk about King Qi.
Although going to Hebei Road is dangerous in battle, having the letter written by Princess Qin to King Li Daoxuan of Huaiyang in your hand will greatly increase your safety.
