Li Dewu had this speculation for no reason.
Two years ago in Furong Garden, Luo Shou and Luo Yang, who were so arrogant and arrogant that they broke Fang Xuanling's fingers when they first arrived in Chang'an, were stepped on by Li Shan. Both civil and military officials were extremely humiliated.
In addition to literary talent, when many people talk about "Ai Lian Shuo", they will mention the match made in heaven between Li Huairen, Prince of Handan County, and the daughter of the Cui family, as well as Luo Yang, who overestimates his abilities.
As for Wu, Luo Yang still has a red nose due to the cold weather, uh, and a flat nose.
And Luo Shou was even worse. In the fight in the Forbidden Garden not long after, no matter what others thought, it was after Li Shanmiao's hand that Luo Shou's broken leg was not reattached, and he eventually became a lame... Historically, he He followed Luo Yi to Beijing and was later awarded the title of General Manager of a Prefecture, but now he can only hang out in the Changlin Army, and his official career is basically hopeless. Even if Li Jiancheng ascends the throne, it is unlikely that he will use this old minister with a serious disability.
But Wang Renbiao was Li Shan's best friend and the earliest friend he made. Many people recognized that Li Huairen valued friendship. Look at Li Kai and Li Keshi, his father and son, who have both been knighted. Li Zhaode has not yet become an official, but his father Li Qianyou has already been promoted. Former Governor Shi, if it had not been for the death of his father, Wang Renfeng would definitely have achieved something now.
However, Wang Renbiao did not serve as an official, nor was he involved in the fight for heirs. He did not have the qualifications. He had no contact with the Luo family, but he inexplicably had such a violent conflict with Luo Shou and Luo Yang. Li Dewu felt that it was probably Because of Li Shan.
indeed so.
Today is actually a coincidence. Over the years, Dongshan Restaurant has become more and more famous and has become the leader in Chang'an's catering industry. Luo Shou and Luo Yang naturally chose Dongshan Restaurant in the West City... Although they knew This is the Li family's industry.
The Luo family invited children from the Wen family in Taiyuan and children from the Lu family in Fanyang... In fact, Luo Yi was arrogant and had few connections, but there was a certain reason why he could make friends with these two families.
After all, the Tang Dynasty conquered the world by chance. It only took five years from Li Yuan's army in Jinyang to Li Shimin's arrival in the Central Plains, which was faster than the Han Emperor who destroyed Qin in three years and Chu in five years.
Such a fast speed was largely due to the fact that a large number of surrendered generals were accommodated, and a large number of other warlords and generals came to surrender, thus enriching the civil and military establishment of the Tang Dynasty. Both the East Palace and Tiance Mansion had a large number of foreign generals and staff.
Therefore, although the court was roughly divided into the factions of Li Yuan's former ministers, the East Palace, the King of Qin, and the King of Qi...well, Li Shan was now considered a small faction. Although he also used the favorite generals of the King of Qin and the prince, he used more of them. Su Dingfang, Wang Junhao, Zhang Zhongjian, Hou Hongtao and others who rose up by themselves.
But from another perspective, there are also various hills in North Korea.
The most typical example is the old general Wagang. When Li Mi was defeated, he finally chose to surrender to the Tang Dynasty. Basically, the wealth accumulated by Wagang over the years was obtained by the Tang Dynasty, such as Li Shiji, Zhang Liang, Wang Junkuo, and Wei Zheng.
Those who chose to vote for Wang Shichong at that time basically joined the Tang Dynasty later, such as Qin Qiong, Cheng Yaojin, and Luo Shixin. Most of those who did not switch to Wang Shichong were killed by Wang Shichong, such as Pei Renji and Pei Xingyan, and Shan Xiongxin was killed by the Tang army in the end.
Although these old Wagang generals had different positions, they had a lot of contacts. Li Shiji and Wang Junkuo were both of the lineage of the King of Qin, but after returning to the capital this time, they also paid a visit to the prince's confidant Wei Zheng.
Today's gathering is similar, except that the top of the mountain is not Wagang Village, but Youzhou.
Wen Yanbo, one of the Wen clan in Taiyuan, once served as the Sima of Youzhou. Later, Luo Yi joined the Tang Dynasty. Wen Yanbo also served as the governor of Youzhou. After that, he was recruited into the court. He served successively as the Minister of Zhongshu, the Minister of Zhongshu, and the Duke of Xihe County.
Therefore, the Wen family of Taiyuan and the Luo family have a close relationship. The children of the two families are not in a group, but they look like each other.
In fact, similar situations include Li Keshi, who once served as a soldier in Youzhou, and the famous generals Xue Wanche and Xue Wanjun in Hebei. On the one hand, the Fan Yang Lu family was attached to the East Palace, and on the other hand, when Youzhou was in chaos, Luo Yi treated the Fan family well. , a lot of protection.
However, Li Keshi, Li Kai and his son were on good terms with Li Shan, and Xue Wanjun was far away in Daizhou, and Xue Wanche was currently serving under Li Shan, so Luo Shou and Luo Yang only invited Wen Zhen, Wen Ting, Wen Bang, and Fan Yang Lu Hong, the nephew of Duke Lu Chisong.
In fact, both the Taiyuan Wen family and the Fanyang Lu family have a good relationship with Li Shan. Not to mention the kindness of the Tiantai Mountain battle, before that, Li Shan had good friends with Wen Yanbo, Wen Zhen, Lu Chisong, and Lu Chengji, and even It was he who rescued Wenbang from the Turks.
But when Luo Yang commented on the rumors in recent days during the dinner, everyone just listened silently without refuting.
The three Taiyuan Wen brothers didn't say anything, and only exchanged glances from time to time. Some were wondering whether the Prince of Handan County was really the prince, while others guessed that it was unlikely but refused to speak. The reason was also very simple. Because some time ago Wen Yanbo wrote a letter to impeach Li Shan for his personal involvement with Tuli Khan, his reputation plummeted, and it even affected the reputation of the entire Taiyuan Wen family.
Lu Hong has also kept silent. His cousin Lu Chengji and Li Shan were Jinshi in the same year, and he served as Daizhou's official military officer. He participated in the First World War in Guoxian County and tried to prevent the Turks from moving north. He had a close friendship with Li Shan, and his uncle Although Lu Chisong eventually died of serious illness, he was kidnapped by Liang Jun and was exchanged for him by Li Shan.
There was only a young man in his twenties who asked curious questions. Wen Bang glanced at him. He came late and didn't know who this person was. He spoke unscrupulously and dared to ask and say anything. .
Lu Hong on the side whispered: "Relatives."
Wen Bang nodded slightly and thought in his mind that if Lu Hong, who was now sacrificing his life for the Prince of the East Palace, could be called a relative, he must not be from the King of Qin's side, nor should he be a son of the Dou family... After all, Dou Gui is now the deputy of the King of Handan, and The King of Handan was on good terms with Dou Jing and Dou Dan.
It should not be from the King of Qi's side. The Yang family of Hongnong also has a good relationship with the King of Handan. Zhongshu Ling Yang Gongren is not involved in the battle for the rightful son, and his eldest son Yang Siyi is on good terms with the King of Handan.
Could he be a descendant of the Zheng family in Xingyang?
Someone took the initiative to cooperate. What Luo Yang and Luo Shou said was so exciting that all kinds of dirty water was poured on Li Shan's head.
To say that Li Shanfang was returned to Tuli Khan is called secret communication... No, it was overt communication with the enemy's country. It was obvious that he was using his hands to gain power and was greedy for military power.
It is said that Li Shan has a heavy army but has been in truce for nearly two months. This obviously has ulterior motives. He is self-respecting and his intentions are unpredictable... This is a rebellion!
The uncle and nephew of the Luo family spoke happily, but they didn't expect that the wall had ears. Just outside the door, Wang Renbiao's face darkened little by little.
