In the East Palace, because Xue Li was about to return, all the generals of Tiance Guard did not do their own things. Instead, they did not care about the time. They all gathered in the East Palace, waiting for Xue Li to miss the battle. The leader of the Tiance Guards Regiment who was promoted to a noble rank by the Turks.
As some of the battalion commanders under Xue Li. Changsun Chong once again fanned himself with his golden fan. Looking at Cheng Chumo, Yuchi Baolin and others beside him, they began to talk.
"Don't you have anything to say?"
"What do you want to say?"
The two looked at Changsun Chong in confusion, while the others were also attracted by the words of a few people and turned their heads.
Even Zhao Dong, one of Xu Yunyan's four great kings, looked on with confusion.
"I wonder what Nagafen-sama has to say to Commander Xue?"
Although Zhao Dong is not a member of the circle of second-generation officials like them, he is one of the four great kings under Xu Yunyan. He was once on the same level as Li Zhong, but because he came to Tiance Guard, he could not enjoy what Xu Yunyan brought. Welfare, many people feel they owe him.
Of course, this is Zhao Dong's ability. He is impeccable in doing things and can even give them pointers in many places to make them convinced.
After Zhao Dong asked, everyone hurriedly looked at Zhao Dong and started talking.
"You said that you and Li Zhong were both generals in the Anbei Army before, and then you look at how kind and agreeable you are, and how you do things to make us convinced, but what about Li Zhong?
Although he is our former mentor and the hometown brother of the previous champion, doing things like this always makes us feel uncomfortable. "
eldest grandson
Chong ignored Li Zhong and talked about Li Zhong's fault in front of Zhao Dong. After Changsun Chong spoke, several people around him also talked about it.
"Yes, our good Tiance Guard used to be able to give orders and prohibitions. Look at the mess now that he has placed his own hands on. I'm really fed up with it.
You, brother, look good to us. You all came out with Master. Why is there such a big gap? "
However, Zhao Dong had no way to pick up the topic with these words, so he could only scratch his head, looking embarrassed.
"How do you put this? We are all brothers fighting together on the battlefield, all for His Highness the Crown Prince, and they are also replenishing the manpower of Tiance Guard. You should be a little considerate."
Although everyone understood what Zhao Dong said, they still felt uncomfortable in their hearts, and even shook their heads under Zhao Dong's persuasion.
But before they could say anything, a man in bright yellow clothes walked in outside the door. Who could he be if he wasn't Li Chengqian?
"Oh what a coincidence, you are all here. Xue Li, the leader of our Tiance Guards Regiment 1, will be back shortly. We haven't seen each other for a long time and have a lot of fun together. Let's have a meal together in the East Palace tonight. It just so happens that I still have something to discuss with you."
After Li Chengqian spoke, everyone hurriedly bowed to Li Chengqian.
"The general has met His Highness the Crown Prince."
Li Chengqian laughed with them, "Why are you so alienated from me?"
This is what Li Chengqian was once told by Xu Yunyan, never put on airs when it is not official, but Li Chengqian has always been generous to others, and did not think what was going on, and even more imitated
The way his father greeted the lieutenants and generals was the same way he did when they met when they were not on official business.
The scene suddenly became lively. Changsun Chong and others hurriedly gathered next to Li Chengqian, chattering about some trivial matters among the Tiance Guards, hoping to make the decision for them and not let Li Zhong dictate what they wanted.
After Changsun Chong finished speaking, Li Chengqian nodded.
"I know everything about you. Isn't the leader of the Tiance Guard 1st Regiment back now? The entire Tiance Guard must listen to Xue Li, and Li Zhong will not interfere again in the future."
Hearing this sentence, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief, and when everyone was about to ask when Xue Li would arrive, a guard ran in from outside the door.
"Report to His Highness the Crown Prince that Xue Li is outside the East Palace asking for an audience."
Before Li Chengqian said anything, the generals of Tiance Guard next to him were already talking.
"We are here to welcome Xue Li. Why are you here to report? Why don't you hurry up and let him in?"
But this guard was a little embarrassed.
"My lords, this..."
But when the guard was embarrassed here, Li Chengqian said, don't embarrass him, it's your duty, let Xue Li come in quickly, there is no need to prepare anything when you come here directly, let's catch up on the past first.
At the same time, you arranged to go to Anbei Prince's Mansion to meet Xue Li's wife. Princess Yue'er said that Xue Li is back and will go back after dinner in my east palace tonight. Don't let her miss you too much. "
Not long after Li Chengqian finished speaking, while he was talking to a group of generals from Tiance Guard about some urgent matters that needed to be done now, there was a loud roar in the distance.
The sound of Lala's armor rubbing together sounded.
Xue Li and a dozen elite Tiance guards had appeared outside the palace where Li Chengqian was, and Li Chengqian hurriedly greeted him out.
Xue Li bowed his head without any embarrassment, "I have seen His Highness the Crown Prince at last."
Following closely behind him were a dozen of his bodyguards, all of whom had positions in the Tiance Guards. None of them were large-scale soldiers. They were also greeted by the emperor, and their voices were heard in the sky.
"The general has met His Highness the Crown Prince."
Li Chengqian hurriedly stepped forward to help Xue Li up, "Xue Li, you are finally back. Get up quickly."
After Xue Li was helped up by Li Chengqian, Li Chengqian watched Xue Li preside over gold and silver production in the four counties of Dongzhou for a period of time. His skin became darker, but he also became stronger and taller. Suddenly he felt like crying. .
"Master died suddenly, and I feel very sad. I need you to recover all the losses caused by Master's fall."
Li Chengqian felt this, and the originally lively scene fell silent for a moment, and all the generals and commanders of Tiance Guard sighed at the same time.
What if the champion was, of course, not the current champion, but the previous champion Li Ying?
It's just that no matter what everyone says, it doesn't matter.
Under such circumstances, we can only hope that the living people will perform well, and Xue Li's eyes were red.
"Your Highness, the general did not expect that my senior brother would look like this, but he is worthy of the title of champion. More than 30,000 soldiers and horses defeated the Turks, and 200,000, solved the crisis in our north. Even if I have done such a feat, I am willing to die immediately."
Xue Li also felt like he was about to cry, and said to the person next to him
Everyone kept shaking their heads, wishing they could die instead of Xu Yunyan.
But just when their mood was low, Li Zhong, who did not need to be reported, had already walked in from outside the East Palace. Seeing that it was Xue Li who had returned, he hurriedly bowed in front of Li Chengqian?
"The last general has met His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Commander Xue."
Xue Li also hurriedly returned the gift.
"I've met the champion."
Because Xue Li had not been in Chang'an City since the expedition to Dongzhou, he missed the opportunity to get promoted and make a fortune during the Northern Expedition against the Turks. However, he heard some things on the way back to Chang'an.
Although Xue Li and Li Zhong are still friendly on the surface, those people next to Xue Li really agree with Xue Li when they look at it, but they treat Li Zhong with eyes rather than eyes and nose.
As the superior, Li Chengqian didn't care about this at all. He saw Li Zhong coming and then said to Li Zhong.
"Actually, I only have one thing to do when I come to the Champion. I want to tell the Champion that since the leader of the Tiance Guard team is back, the Champion will not interfere with anything that happened in the day Ce Guard."
Li Chengqian's explicit words shocked Li Zhong, but Li Zhong still hurriedly clasped his fists in response.
"I obey the orders of His Highness the Crown Prince. How can the young He De lead all the heroes? It is only reasonable and reasonable for a group of commanders, Captain Xue, to lead the Tiance Guards. I, an outsider, can just get away."
After Li Zhong finished speaking, Chang Sun Chong was indeed whispering beside him, "If you don't want to lead the imperial guards, let your majesty arrange the generals. We suddenly placed the generals at will without going through your majesty. There is no way for your majesty to explain it. It's just for your majesty to see." Watch the champion show up
It is also good to work wherever you need to when you are free. "
As soon as Changsun Chong finished speaking, Li Zhong couldn't help but feel tight in his heart.
"If I am really kicked out of the crown prince's right guard position and cannot even control the Tiance Guard, even if I enjoy the treatment of a marquis in a serious way, as a champion, no one will think highly of me anymore. I am just a polished guy. You have a noble status and don't have any rights. Who would take you seriously? I'm so angry! It's still your fault for looking down on me, but I will come back with revenge."
Just when Li Zhong was worried here, Li Chengqian shook his head.
"The Crown Prince's right guard has not been properly trained yet. Let Li Zhong lead the Crown Prince's right guard first. If there is any need, we will make other arrangements.
As for what you said about your father arranging the prince's guard to lead the generals, that's right. I'll go and ask for the order tomorrow. However, your Tiance Guard must be ready for an expedition at any time, and you can't let yourself go off guard. . "
At this moment, everyone was shocked. Tiancewei went out to fight. Is there any blind Xiaoxiao who wants to become the enemy of the Tang Dynasty? My broadsword is already thirsty.
Li Zhong did not expect that he would get such news when he came to the East Palace this time, but now Tiancewei no longer needs him, and this expedition has no chance for him.
I no longer had the idea of adding a little bit of military exploits through this, so I could only shake my head helplessly.
Time is also destiny!
This Xue Li didn't come earlier. Why did he come at this time? I wish I could get the news in advance so that my younger brother could really deal with Xue Li as they said. At that time, Tiancewei would be me.
Yes, I succeeded at one stop, and both Tiance Guard and Prince Guard were under my command, so my weight became even heavier.
Although Li Zhong was very unhappy, Li Chengqian didn't care about it and looked at Li Zhong instead.
"Marquis Champion, these are some things among the Tiance Guards. The generals of the Tiance Guards have not talked to their regiment commanders for a long time. Let them talk here. Let's go to other places."
Although Li Chengqian was asking Li Zhong, Li Zhong was also a bit discerning and spoke hurriedly.
"Your Majesty, please excuse me. The general just happened to go to the guard to see how the soldiers are being trained. I will take my leave now."
After Li Chengqian nodded, Li Zhong left in a hurry, while Changsun Chong and others looked at Li Zhong leaving and couldn't help but poke Yahuazi.
"That's right. We shouldn't let this outsider dictate what we have to do among our Tiance Guards. Just because he has a noble status, he can act according to his own wishes. Look at how good Zhao Dong is like him."
Everyone compared Zhao Dong and Li Zhongyi, which made Zhao Dong extremely embarrassed, and Li Chengqian also looked at Zhao Dong twice.
"Yes, Zhao Dong, you are indeed good. As one of the six battalion commanders of our Tiance Guard, I am very optimistic about you."
