At night, Chang'an City has fallen into darkness! Only in the north of Chang'an is there a brightly lit area. This is Li Yuan's residence, the palace of the Tang Dynasty!
In a quiet palace, Li Yuan held a glass wolf in his hand and thought for a long time, and finally sighed: "What a way! What a way! We only need to send these treasures to those big tribes! We can do it without spending a single soldier." Soldier, let them disrupt! This Xiao Han! He is really a genius!"
Princess Pingyang supported Li Yuan naturally and said with a smile: "What my father said is absolutely true! Xiao Han is indeed an unparalleled genius! You must pay more attention to his father! As for the things on the grassland, I think it is better to let them go first. Feng Sheng, wait until the time is right before sending the treasure out! If we let them get into chaos now, I don’t think it will be of much help to us. We can only use this trick when it threatens us!"
"Okay!" Li Yuan pondered for a moment, then nodded in agreement, and then looked at his daughter with some emotion: "Pingyang, you have worked really hard these years. I only regret that you are not a man. Otherwise, after I die, this country will be yours." If you come to inherit, I will be most at ease..."
Before Li Yuan finished speaking, Princess Pingyang had already covered Li Yuan's mouth. The little daughter said in a pretentious manner: "Bah, bah, bah, it's Chinese New Year. Why did your father say such unlucky words? You are now in the prime of spring and autumn! Besides, brother and the world The people are all rare talents! My father should be more at ease with them!"
Li Yuan shook his head to avoid his daughter's hand, and said with a comforting smile: "Okay, okay, don't say these words! It's really too early to say these things. Jiancheng and Shimin are indeed good. Shimin is decisive in killing and has perseverance in his bones." ! And Jiancheng is stable, mature and full of wisdom. As a father, I only hope that the two brothers can help each other and carry forward our Tang Dynasty! My father's hard work is not in vain!"
"Yes, what father said is absolutely true..." Princess Pingyang smiled and nodded, but inadvertently, there was a hint of bitterness in her smile...
In Luoyang City, the Eastern Capital! In a slightly remote courtyard.
A seven-foot-tall man with a dark face and chin was sitting angrily on the couch. Opposite him, a slender man with a face like a crown jewel was carefully wiping a pair of maces on his hands.
"Case, wipe, wipe! You know how to wipe all the time! I, Old Cheng, can't understand! You and I have worked so hard here! Why should you compare yourself to that bastard Wang Xingben! Just because he is Zheng The king’s nephew?!”
"ps: Wang Shichong, after proclaiming himself emperor, the country was named Dazheng and the reign was named Kaiming."
The man wiping the mace may have long been accustomed to this man's loud voice. When he heard him shouting, he didn't even raise his head. He carefully searched for the fine dust on the mace. After a while, he said: "The weapon is for us to settle down and live." How can you not be serious about your capital? Besides, you don’t have to be angry, it’s just a banquet seat! As long as you and I haven’t lost our ability, nothing else matters!”
"You haven't lost your skills? Damn you!" The man with a dark face and cheekbones became more and more excited. He jumped up from the squat and spat hard again before saying: "Back in Wagang Village! Why did you say we two had to rely on each other? You have to rely on your ability to make a living! As a result, Wagang Village was wiped out! When you come here, you said that you rely on your ability to make a living! But it turns out that you are just talking! Your relatives! They are all on our heads! Now, you still say that! Do you want to wait until one day? , you go to perform, and I go to hold a broken bowl and ask for money, and you also say that you rely on your ability to make a living!"
"Haha..." The man who was almost pointing at his nose and wiping his maces was not angry at all. Instead, he shook his head and laughed!
He stood up, pressed the man down on the squat, and said in a calm tone: "You, you can't hold your breath at all. I'll teach you. In fact, I also see that King Zheng is not a wise master! Looking at the current world, The only people who can be called the masters of the Ming Dynasty are Dou Jiande and Li Yuan!"
"Ah? Why did you say that suddenly? Could it be that you have wanted to rebel against Prince Zheng for a long time?" The man was so shocked by this man's words that he almost slipped off the platform, and his eyes were as wide as copper bells!
"Keep your voice down!" The man shouted. He listened around and found nothing unusual. Then he continued: "Who said I want to rebel? I just have to be careful. Good birds choose trees to roost in! You My brother, in this troubled world, must not make a wrong move! It’s not like you haven’t seen how many brothers there were! Some were far more skilled than you and me in martial arts, and some were smarter than you and me! But what happened next? One wrong move! Bones Nothing left!"
"But, if we defect to the new master again, wouldn't we become slaves of the third surname..."
"Fart! In this world, only those who can survive can laugh at others, and those who can't survive can only be turned into a cup of loess! As brothers, I also want to take glory and wealth! But I have to have my life to take it! You Look at the current King Zheng, he is completely different from the previous King Zheng! Prime Minister Pei Renji just spoke out, and he was all executed! I see that the current King Zheng only wants to be the emperor! Try to feel that he is the only one, listen I don’t want to have any other opinions! But now that we are surrounded by powerful enemies, if he continues to be like this, he will not last long!”
"You, you have been thinking about this for a long time? But why can't I see it at all?"
"Hmph, let you see it, wouldn't everyone in Luoyang see it? If you hadn't complained today, I wouldn't have wanted to tell you this! Remember, you must never let outsiders see it! Do you know?!"
"Don't worry! I, Old Cheng, know how powerful this is! Uncle Bao, you are more powerful, and I, Old Cheng, will respect you! But, can you tell me first, who are we going to defect to?"
"I haven't thought about this either..."
"What, you talked a lot of nonsense earlier! Are you fooling me, Old Cheng?"
"..." The man looked at the sky speechlessly.
In the second year of Wude, the world is changing! After a winter of recuperating, in this spring-filled season, all the heroes are ready to take action!
To the south, Zhu Jie burned, killed and looted, to the east, Wang Shichong looked greedily, and to the north, Liu Wuzhou, who occupied Jinyang, frequently mobilized his troops! News that he was going south soon spread in Chang'an.
Li Shimin, who had been "on vacation" for a long time, was packing his bags at Xiao Han's house today, preparing to return to the military camp.
Suddenly, a group of red feather messengers came with urgent news: Li Mi, who had been missing for several days, suddenly appeared in Liu Wu and Zhou's army and was discovered by Li Yuan's spies. According to the news, his position was not low!
Li Shimin is extremely jealous when he meets his enemies now! Seeing this news, he was so angry that the bamboo tube holding the secret letter was crushed to pieces by him!
No wonder everyone from Lijingmen has fled to Luoyang City, and there is no trace of Li Mi!
No wonder the carriage was empty when we found it!
It turns out that this is just a trick to escape the shell of a golden cicada, and they will spin them around!
"King Qin? What's wrong? What happened?"
Xiao Han was just helping Xiao Lizi pack his luggage outside, so he didn't think it was strange that the red feather messenger came. After all, messengers often come these days, but this time when he entered the room, he saw Xiao Lizi looking very angry! I couldn't help but feel very strange. Didn't he live like a happy husky the past few days? How do you say falling out now, just falling out? What was written in the letter?
Seeing that Xiao Lizi was still filled with grief and anger, Xiao Han grabbed the secret letter by himself, brought it close to him and began to read it carefully.
However, it stands to reason that this kind of secret military letter can only be read by the recipient, and it must be destroyed after reading it! But Xiao Han doesn't care about this. Anyway, no one here knows about it, and his curiosity will always kill the cat!
