Two days later, in the main hall of Li's house in Sun Moon Lake, Li Shan sat on the main seat with blank eyes, occasionally humming weakly, looking like he was hopeless, which attracted the concern of many guests, and also attracted the attention of Wang Ren. Biao Biao, Zhang Wenguan and other friends gave him funny looks.
Is there a reign named Wende in history?
Anyway, Li Shan has no impression, but he has the title of Wude.
But how could Li Yuan, an old guy who doesn't talk about martial ethics, have the nerve to use the title of martial ethics?
Li Shan gritted his teeth and jumped into the pit... Although he dug it himself, he didn't expect that Li Yuan deliberately let the news out, and the whole court was in uproar. The so-called generals of this era are not the illiterate ones in the Ming Dynasty. Yes, the understanding of classics and history may not be weaker than that of Confucian scholars. Who doesn't know the weight of the list of the twenty-eight heroes of Lingyan Pavilion!
What needs to be emphasized is that there were no Song, Ming, and Qing dynasties at this time. Except for the Qin Dynasty and the Sui Dynasty, which died in the second generation, the only one that truly unified the world and lasted for hundreds of years was the Liu Han Empire, and the Yun Dynasty who assisted Emperor Guangwu of Han to rebuild China. The status of Taiwan 28 generals in the minds of the world is far higher than that of later generations, and much, much higher.
Yuntai Pavilion and Lingyan Pavilion are also twenty-eight generals... It is no exaggeration to say that no matter how pure your mind is and how calm your mind is, you still live in Bengbu!
In fact, there is nothing wrong with Li Yuan releasing some news. It is reasonable to delay the discussion of merits until now and give some news like this. But the problem is that it is said that His Majesty appointed Prince Li Xiaogong of Zhao County to erect a portrait of Jianyan in Lingyan Pavilion. Li Huairen, the successor king of Wei, drew up a list of heroes following the example of Yuntai's twenty-eight generals.
Now, everyone understands that it is useless to go to Zhaojun Wang Li Xiaogong... Some time ago, we recovered several counties to select officials. It is said that this person sleeps from early morning to dusk every day and doesn't care about anything at all. What's more, this is a famous general of the clan, and he is also a famous general of the clan who was reported to be trying to rebel. Going to him would be uncomfortable.
Therefore, we have to go to Wei Si Wang Li Huairen!
It was Li Huairen's suggestion, and His Majesty appointed him. Although like Li Xiaogong, he was also a famous general in the clan who was "reportedly" trying to support his army and respect himself, he was not of royal blood and did not violate any taboos.
So, in the next two days, there was an endless stream of guests visiting... Of course, because although Li Shan has a high position, he is still young after all. He was crowned only last year, and anyone who hopes to be on the list is a handful. He has a big beard, so those who come are all younger members of the family.
Anyway, Li Shan has a lot of connections... He saved the lives of many children of aristocratic families in the battle at Tiantai Mountain last year. It is no exaggeration to say that if Pei Xuanji hadn't died in Huating, people from the Pei family's west dependents' house would come to pay their respects when they heard about it, uh , this does not refer to Pei Shiju, but Pei Huaijie of Tiance Mansion.
There were people Li Shan knew, such as Cheng Yaojin's son Cheng Chumo, Yuchi Gong's son Yuchi Baolin, and a large number of descendants of military commanders from Tiance Mansion and East Palace. There were also some whom Li Shan didn't know and had never interacted with before. Even those who had never met before sent their sons over to stand in front of him.
For example, Cao Guogong Li Shiji, who had never had any contact with Li Shan, sent his eldest son Li Zhen over... But you must know that this little guy is only eight years old!
Because he arrived late and the scene was noisy, by the time Li Shan knew that the little carrot was Li Shiji's eldest son, it was already dark and he had to let him stay at home for one night.
He was busy from getting up in the morning until evening. Li Shan had to recruit Zhang Wenguan, Wang Renbiao, and Yang Siyi to help him on the first day.
There was no way. When these generals faced the temptation released by Li Yuan, they all had their own thoughts. Li Shan also found that he had underestimated these people's extreme desire for Lingyan Pavilion's list of heroes.
Although there was a list before, the Taiyuan Yuanmou Heroes List, some of these people are now in high positions, but many of them are unknown, and there are even people like Liu Wenjing who were executed... No matter from which perspective , are far from being comparable to the Twenty-Eight Generals of Yuntai.
These people all know what they are doing. When it comes to commanding an army, they are all pretty much the same, because they include King Li Shimin of Qin, King Li Xiaogong of Zhao County, King Li Huairen of Wei, Duke Dai Li Yaoshi, and Su Dingfang, Duke of Zhao who has just made great achievements and returned to the court. Several.
The rest, such as Huaiyang King Li Daoxuan, Rencheng King Li Daozong, Xiangyi King Li Shenfu, and Lujiang King Li Yuan, performed very average. Others, such as Cao Guogong Li Shiji, were beaten in Hebei and fled like rats.
So in the final analysis, everyone is competing against each other, they are all about the same, and they have not led the army to make achievements. They can only be measured in terms of defeating the strong by the weak and turning the tide of the battle. In this case, everyone will have a chance.
The most important thing is that the list of Lingyan Pavilion heroes in history basically followed Li Shimin to conquer the world. Among them, Li Xiaogong, Wei Zheng and the like acted as facades. And this time it was during the Wude period, so we must consider To the distribution of forces in the military and the DPRK.
To put it bluntly, that is the top of the mountain!
Therefore, the generals of Tiance Mansion have to compete, the generals of East Palace also have to compete, and even the generals of Tiance Mansion have to compete within themselves... Well, there is no such trouble within the East Palace.
Nowadays, King Qin Li Shimin is still the well-deserved boss at the top of the army. There is no doubt that his subordinates can pick out a lot of candidates who are qualified to compete. Prince Li Jiancheng can also come up with a few, such as Feng Li, Luo Yi, Xue Wanche.
Li Xiaogong and Li Jing are not actually counted, because the generals under their command basically have their own masters. For example, Li Shiji, Ren Gui, Huang Junhan, and Li Daliang in the Jianghuai War all belonged to the East Palace and the Prince of Qin's Palace respectively.
But Li Shan, who has only been rising for a few years, can be counted as one. Everyone knows the twenty-eight places. Wei Siwang's lineage can grab at least two, and maybe three. Li Huairen and Su Dingfang That's for sure. There might be hope for Zhang Zhongjian later, and it is said that Liu Heier, the leader of Wei Siwang's bodyguard, is not weak to Zhao Guogong.
Therefore, after the news spread that Li Huairen, the heir to the Wei Dynasty, was ordered to choose, the threshold of the Li house was almost crossed. Li Shandu explained that he only selected ten first, but more guests came... Well, Li Shandu It would be better if he didn't say it. If he did, it would be like confirming the rumor.
So, at today's ceremony for Li Shan to accept Jiangdu County Duke Wan Xuandao as his disciple, there was an endless stream of guests coming to watch the ceremony... This time it was not the juniors who came, but those people who came in person.
After all, it is a formal etiquette. Everyone comes to watch the ceremony, isn't that what it should be?
Everyone knows that once the list of King Wei Si is submitted, the possibility of His Majesty vetoing it is very low... And it will be difficult to say in the future. Not to mention the battle for the crown prince and the King of Qin, even if one side wins, there will definitely be an internal fight. One game.
And if he is chosen this time, even if he is a close confidant of the King of Qin, the prince will not rashly withdraw after he ascends the throne, and vice versa, then more people will come to visit him.
For example, General Feng Li, the prince's confidant who followed Li Shan on the expedition, also came to watch the ceremony, and Kang Guogong Shi Danai, who although he was from the lineage of the King of Qin, had never been deeply involved in the fight for the heir, also arrived, and the youngest son of Zhongshu Ling Yang Gongren. Yang Shidao, the minister of the military department, also came... This man once served as the general manager of Lingzhou, and he has a unique resume.
With so many guests, it's no wonder that Li Shan looks so loveless.
At this time, there was a noise outside. Li Shan's mouth twitched, and Qu Silang walked over quickly and whispered: "Wu Guogong, Lu Guogong and the Marquis of Zouping County were fighting outside."
Li Shan was speechless. Do you want to have a show inside Tiance Mansion first?
