The most powerful person in the Tang Dynasty is His Majesty the Emperor. Under the Emperor, there is also His Highness the Crown Prince who is always on guard against accidents and is committed to upholding the integrity of the country.
Now the attack on His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is a top priority.
I don't know why, but everyone suddenly put such an important matter behind some trivial matters.
But after talking about it from the front, this matter cannot be solved easily.
As soon as they heard that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had been assassinated, many generals expressed their opinions here.
"Your Majesty, please let me lead a team to the south and arrest all the people in Zhechong Mansion. Sooner or later, we will find out who their mastermind is and vent his anger on His Royal Highness."
A group of generals were begging for orders here, but Li Shimin did shake his head.
"It's inappropriate. How can we use the army to find the culprit like this? Maybe many people have been deceived."
Li Shimin was the first to object, leaving everyone stunned.
“Your Majesty, this is His Highness the Crown Prince.
If His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is so humiliated and does nothing, where is the prestige of the Tang Dynasty? "
When everyone was talking like this, Changsun Wuji said something next to him.
"Actually, I also investigated some things."
As soon as Changsun Wuji finished speaking, everyone looked at him.
"Have you investigated something? Since you have the news, tell it immediately. Why are you hesitating here?"
Changsun Wuji was scolded by everyone, but he didn't feel any displeasure. Knowing that he had missed the point again, he immediately gave everyone a fist in the air.
"Old brothers, please be patient. We have found out that some of the main personnel in Zhechong Mansion are from Du Fuwei's former army."
"What? Du Fuwei? Are you here for revenge?"
After Changsun Wuji mentioned Du Fuwei, someone immediately reminded him.
"I think it is."
Changsun Wuji said this directly.
"Since the prince appeared in Fuzhou, if we find someone who is willing to send the message, there is not enough time to go back and forth. In addition, they can easily obtain the route of His Highness the prince. I always feel that these people are staring at the prince here. Your Highness, Your Highness the Crown Prince has no secrets.”
As soon as Changsun Wuji finished speaking, Li Shimin's face still looked very beautiful. As long as it wasn't the brothers talking about each other and the terrifying scene that happened for that position, he felt very happy in his heart.
However, Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui were stroking their chins and thinking deeply.
"This is not necessarily done by Du Fuwei's people, right? In order to take revenge, we should arrange for someone to investigate.
Mr. Wei returned with His Highness the Crown Prince. Although Mr. Wei set out from Chang'an City a few days in advance to greet His Highness the Crown Prince, his diversion from Chuzhou also delayed a little time.
It's hard to say, but some people rushed to send the message. "
"That makes sense."
Li Shimin didn't know what to do now, so he said immediately.
"Then according to the wishes of your ministers, arrange the appropriate people to check. General Hou."
Hou Junji, who had been acting as a passerby there without saying a word, was surprised when Li Shimin suddenly called his name.
Li Shimin looked at Hou Junji and said, "General Hou, as a general, how about you lead a team to the south to investigate this matter thoroughly this time?"
Hou Junji scratched his head in embarrassment, a little uneasy.
"Your Majesty, is this inappropriate?"
"What's the matter? What's wrong with this? Li Chengqian is your son-in-law, and he is also the Crown Prince of the Tang Dynasty. You are the Duke of the Tang Dynasty and a general. You should do everything for me, both emotionally and rationally. Has His Highness the Crown Prince of the Tang Dynasty figured out these troubles?"
Hou Jun scratched his head when he heard Li Shimin arranged this.
"Your Majesty, people will always gossip when I go out. How can I live up to Your Majesty's trust in me if I take the opportunity to retaliate?"
As soon as Hou Junji finished talking about this situation, many generals in front of him were talking here.
"We can rest assured when you do things. For a long time, probably after His Royal Highness the Crown Prince got married, it seems that you have stopped appearing in front of us, neither taking care of political affairs nor leading troops to go out for action. You are staying in Chang'an City every day. Is that what happened?”
Hou Junji was not angry after being criticized by several other generals. Instead, he just smiled.
"That's all I have to say. I can't use my status to compete with you for these credits, right? If my nephew is born, he will be the King of Qin!"
Hou Junji looked at the people in front of him triumphantly and kept mumbling, while everyone in front of him looked at Hou Junji and was a little speechless.
Hou Junji is right. His current identity is different from what it was in the past, which really amazed everyone.
The generals present, except for those from the clan and those with the title of king, are all princes of the country. Of course, they must exclude Xu Yunyan, who is ranked as a champion and has achieved national merit.
After being assigned the task by Li Shimin, Hou Junji immediately clasped his fists in salute and retreated.
Li Shimin was stunned when he saw Hou Junji leaving in such a hurry.
"Leaving now?"
What Li Shimin said means that everyone is also a little confused here.
"What's going on? Did you arrange a mission? Why don't we just stay here and wait for other arrangements?"
Just when everyone was staring at the scene in front of them, not sure what to do, Li Shimin spoke, which made everyone even more stunned.
"Such a major thing can't happen in a moment."
"Uh? How important is it? How serious is it that they need to take action?"
Just when everyone was wondering, what happened to Li Shimin today? Is it because he had too much money to spend and his head was burned and confused? Or does he think that the life and death of his great son, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Tang Dynasty, the future king that everyone is satisfied with, does not matter?
Just when everyone thought more and more they felt that Li Chengqian was not picked up by Li Shimin and was not Li Shimin's biological son, Li Shimin looked at Hou Junji here and said.
"I haven't given you the will to act cheaply. If you just go like this, there are some things that are hard to say, right?"
Everyone almost fell to the ground.
It's good for you, you talk and breathe heavily, but it makes us unable to react for a while. If you do it a few more times, this little heart will have problems.
Just after everyone murmured a few words again, Li Shimin looked at Hou Junji who had returned and took out a jade pendant and threw it towards Hou Junji.
"This is my jade pendant. Otherwise, you can use this jade pendant to do things easily."
However, everyone here sighed with emotion, Hou Junji was really a saint, and when Li Shimin gave him a jade pendant, Hou Junji threw the jade pendant back at Li Shimin.
"Your Majesty, please stop playing around. You recognize this jade pendant, but I don't recognize it, let alone other people. It seems unreasonable for you to use such a jade pendant to let me act easily and say it is His Majesty's will, right?"
"Well?"
Li Shimin scratched his head in embarrassment, "Didn't I find a jade pendant when I was taking out something just now? It was my mistake."
Li Shimin awkwardly put the jade pendant into his arms again, touched it again, and pulled out a golden token.
"Is this token ready for the head office?"
Looking at the token that Li Shimin threw over again, Hou Junji shook his head.
The token has the Chinese character Tang written on one side and four small characters written on the other side, as if I were here in person.
Li Shimin really spent a lot of money to make tokens like this.
Everyone looked at Hou Junji who didn't care about throwing tokens and couldn't help but sigh.
When would I be so lucky to get a token from Li Shimin? At that time, the ancestors were truly honored.
But just as they were muttering here about how glorious it would be to get the token, Hou Junji finally took the token and put it in his arms.
"Thank you, Your Majesty. I will take my leave now."
Seeing Hou Junji's disinterested look, Li Shimin scratched his head.
"Is there anything else I've done wrong? Oh, yes, Minister of War. You happen to be here. Hurry up and issue a decree for General Hou so that he can lead his troops in our Tang Dynasty. No one else has the emperor's order. Don’t stop it.”
This sentence frightened everyone, but Xuanling, the Minister of War, did not consider anything else at all and nodded hurriedly.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty. I will go and issue the decree right away. I will never let General Hou be restricted in any way in our Tang Dynasty."
This moment made everyone envious, especially Xu Yunyan's eyes shining brightly as he looked at Hou Junji.
Li Shimin's decree will not be carried out until Hou Junji takes action, right? Hou Junji suddenly mobilized troops and no one dared to stop him. It should be a matter of this decree. Of course, Xu Yunyan originally felt that Li Shimin should have issued such an imperial decree for Hou Junji in the original historical trajectory. This led to the subsequent tragedy, but doesn’t this further illustrate the importance of Hou Junji in Li Shimin’s heart?
But just when Xu Yunyan was distracted, thinking about the historical gap between this life and his previous life, Li Chengqian bumped into him.
"Master is talking about you."
"What?"
Xu Yunyan was stunned, and Li Shimin looked at Xu Yunyan unhappily.
"Champion Hou, what's going on with you? We haven't finished talking yet, why are you thinking about other things here?"
Xu Yunyan said here awkwardly.
"Your Majesty, didn't I consider the matter of Tiance Guard? I was distracted for a moment. I hope your Majesty will forgive me."
As soon as Xu Yunyan talked about Tiancewei, he suddenly heard everyone laughing here, which made Xu Yunyan stunned.
"What's wrong? Has this matter been finalized?"
"No? No, we were just here talking about how to organize the Tiance Guards, and you are here thinking about the Tiance Guards. It just so happens that you can talk about what you think about the Tiance Guards."
Xu Yunyan suddenly realized in his heart that this was what happened, which made him excited.
Immediately, Xu Yunyan wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and told the squad, platoon, company and battalion and other organizational structures that he would later know. When he said this, Li Shimin looked at him and nodded.
"It's interesting. Although the number of people in your new establishment has changed, as you said, it seems to be a lot easier to convey information!"
Li Shimin had just finished speaking, and no one was allowed to reflect on it.
A platoon is formed with three squads as the basic unit, and a company is formed from the three platoons. Just add some squads with special functions here, and then use several companies to form a battalion, with special unit platoons added to the battalion.
Etc., etc……
After a series of establishments were completed, everyone couldn't help but consider whether to expand the establishment for the Tang Army?
The current mainstream of the army is still two types: combat soldiers and auxiliary soldiers, and with Xu Yunyan's establishment, all soldiers can indeed perform their duties and do what they should do better.
Just after Xu Yunyan introduced the configuration of the troops and what they should do, Li Shimin looked at everyone and spoke slowly.
"How about using Tiance Guard as a pilot to test the capabilities of this newly formed military formation?"
"This is a great thing to say!"
In an instant, Li Chengqian began to take the lead in complimenting Li Shimin, saying how convenient and effective his master's Tiance Guard was, making it easier to control and deploy.
Hearing this, Li Shimin couldn't help but look at Xu Yunyan giving orders again.
"Since this was proposed by the champion, I will stay in Chang'an for a few more days after winning the championship, and then return to the Northland when Tiance Guard is on track!"
