After leaving the Linhu Palace, Li Shan felt a little headache. Humans are not grass and trees. Li Yuan really has nothing to say to him. Why should he send him to the boat for a breeze?
It’s a bit hard to give up.
Just as he was thinking about something, someone on the other side bowed his hands and said, "Greetings to the King of Handan."
Li Shan blinked and returned the salute, "Juniors don't dare to salute like elders."
The visitor is Duan Yanshi, Li Yuan's old friend. He was a judicial officer in Taiyuan County in his early years and joined the army. He had a good relationship with Li Yuan. He was also a hero of Jinyang's army. He was given the title of Duke of Yidu County. Last year, he spoke very highly of Li Yuan in front of his son Duan Zhixuan. A few small words, but after the battle at Tiantai Mountain, his attitude has now changed 180 degrees.
No way, although Li Shan mainly rescued the driver, everyone has to bear this responsibility, not to mention the chaos outside Renshou Palace. It was Su Dingfang who snatched Duan Zhixuan back. At the last moment, when Liang Jun attacked Tiantai Mountain, it was Wang Junhao who killed him. Saved Duan Zhixuan's life.
No matter how much hatred there is, it should be resolved.
"I heard that the King of Handan is going to marry you next year?" Duan Yanshi asked tentatively, "I wonder if Your Highness has chosen your best man?"
The so-called best man is probably the best man in later generations, but in this era, the main function is to welcome and send off the bride, rather than helping the groom drink or teasing the groom. As the saying goes, "When you go out to receive the guest, you are called the best man, and when you enter, you are called the best man."
"Welcome to the bride in May next year." Li Shan also intended to ease the relationship and said with a smile: "But brother Zhixuan is now a county prince..."
After the First World War in Tiantai Mountain, Duke Duan Zhixuan was granted the title of Duke of Guzang County.
"I heard yesterday that the King of Huaiyang has already grabbed a position." Duan Yanshi immediately said, "If His Highness is interested..."
"Then please ask Brother Zhixuan to help you." Li Shan promised that the positions of the six groomsmen should be well divided. Su Dingfang and Li Daoxuan will definitely fight for two. If Zhang Wenguan and Li Kai are in Beijing, they will definitely be. Wang Ren I don't know if it is a taboo if I am still observing filial piety, but now the King of Qin has snatched Duan Zhixuan away... Unfortunately, Lu Chengji, who was attached to the East Palace, has returned to his hometown to observe filial piety. Wei Ting is a bit old, so it's really hard to pick a suitable one.
The two of them were talking when Chen Shuda, the provincial minister over there, hurried over and waved with a smile: "We will have Huairen wedding banquet next year."
"Of course I have to invite Duke Jiang." Li Shan saluted and thought to himself that Chen Shuda's second son, Chen Xuande, was also very familiar with him. If he didn't have enough people, he would be able to help.
Duan Yanshi also bowed and said, "Is Mr. Jiang Guo going to have an audience with His Majesty?"
Chen Shuda raised the document in his hand and said, "Another good news. Three days ago by the Yellow River in Lingzhou, Guan Guogong defeated the Liang army and all the Liang divisions fled eastward."
"Lingzhou is settled, and the Duke Guan Guo has the appearance of a famous general." Duan Yanshi forced a smile. Although he was Li Yuan's old friend and had no position of his own, who made his son Duan Zhixuan the favorite general of King Qin.
Ren Gui defeated the Liang army several times and regained the land of the three states. He will definitely become the most powerful supporter of the Donggong line in the army. This is not a good thing for the King of Qin.
Li Shan didn't care, and left after chatting for a while. In recent months, the situation of seizing the throne has changed. On the surface, Li Shimin has been instructed to actually take charge of the Shangshu Province, and the East Palace has suffered a big loss. But Ren Gui's military exploits also allowed the prince to regain a victory. It seemed like a tie, but in fact it was not like this. ….
Although Li Yuan is not too obviously inclined to the lineage of the King of Qin, he does not maintain the East Palace as before. In essence, this is a huge change.
After walking out of the palace gate, Li Shan went straight to find Su Dingfang. On the way, he suddenly stopped and thought of something.
How will the current situation develop? Even Li Shan, as a time traveler, has no clue. He has brought too many changes. Historically, it was the crown prince and the King of Qin who forced him. In the end, Li Shimin chose the Xuanwu Gate change.
But in fact, all of this was promoted or even instigated by Li Yuan behind the scenes. Now Li Yuan's attitude has changed drastically, which makes it likely that Li Shimin will not make up his mind to rebel to seize the throne, but hopes to enter the East Palace in a normal way.
This is good news for Li Shan. In a short period of time, he does not need to think about how to send Li Yuan to the boat to get some wind... But Li Shan deduced it in his mind and felt a little numb.
If the current situation remains, the East Palace and King Qin will
The government always checks and balances each other. Li Yuan is neither easy to save nor suppress the King of Qin. If he lives for another ten or eight years, or even fourteen or five years, emperors of this age are quite common in history... What changes will happen to the Turks? ?
Will the Nine Tiele tribes form a powerful Xueyantuo Empire according to historical trajectory?
These are all unpredictable things... Li Shan felt his throat was a little dry, and for the first time he felt that he was completely unsure of the future.
"Huairen?"
"Oh, Brother Dingfang." Li Shan twitched the corner of his mouth and temporarily put aside the troubles in his mind. Seeing that there was no one around, he said with a smile: "Your Majesty, you have asked me to come here for a walk. I will go to various cities in the imperial city later." Door turns around."
Su Dingfang was a little surprised, but it was not surprising after thinking about it. After all, he was able to control the Beiya Forbidden Army mainly because of his relationship with Li Shan. After the battle at Tiantai Mountain, His Majesty must have trusted Li Shan more, but he did not directly let him control the Beiya Forbidden Army. That’s all.
The two of them took more than a dozen personal guards to visit various city gates. The news spread very quickly, and everyone who needed to know knew it.
At Fanglin Gate near the Forbidden Garden, Li Shan met Li Gaoqian, an old acquaintance of the current General of the Right Prison Gate. After chatting for a few words, the topic changed and he mentioned the good news that had just arrived in Chang'an and talked about Ren Gui's efforts to turn the tide.
In fact, Li Shan had secretly discussed with Ling Jing a long time ago. The current King of Qin does not need the position of Lingzhou Road Marching Manager. After all, the current situation is very different from before.
Before the battle at Tiantai Mountain, Li Shimin was almost forced into a corner and had even begun to prepare for a mutiny. At that time, Li Shimin needed the position of Lingzhou Road Marching Commander...at least not to be held by the East Palace lineage.
After the Xuanwumen Incident in history, Li Shimin quickly stabilized the situation. Except for Luo Yi, no generals raised troops. Even Luo Yi was easily killed. This directly led to Li Shimin being able to concentrate on dealing with the Turkic army invading the south.
The main reason lies in Li Shimin's own unparalleled prestige in the army, and also in the main generals of Hedong and Guannai Road closest to Chang'an.
In the last years of Wude in history, Daizhou had not yet reestablished the General Manager's Office, and even Yuan Junzhang did not surrender. The commander of Hedong was Li Shiji, the General Manager of Bingzhou, who was absolutely a direct descendant of Li Shimin.
[In view of the general environment, the other two are Li Jing, the military commander of Lingzhou Road in Guannai Road, and Li Daozong, the governor of Lingzhou... Neither of them can be regarded as direct descendants of Li Shimin, but they are not of the Donggong lineage.
If Li Shimin wants to rebel and seize the throne, Ren Gui, the current military commander of Lingzhou Road, will be a big trouble. Even if the prince is killed and all his heirs are slaughtered, Ren Gui may not be able to arrest him easily. Once a big mess is caused, the trouble will be big. .
To put it more seriously, if Ren Gui leads his troops south and the Turks attack at the same time, even Li Shimin may not be able to withstand it.
However, now that the situation has changed drastically, Li Shimin will not have the idea of mutinying many people in a short time. The position of Lingzhou Road Marching Manager is no longer important to him.
After chatting with Li Gaoqian for a few words, Li Shan and Su Dingfang continued eastward and arrived at the last city gate, which was also the most important gate in the entire imperial city, Xuanwu Gate. .
The wind is blowing slowly
