"Is there anything else?" After hearing Xiao Yu's report, Li Yuan looked at Xiao Yu with a "knowing nothing" expression. In fact, how could Li Yuan not know that after those big flags were erected, Li Yuan had already received Chang Bao's report, but now Li Yuan wanted to see what Xiao Yu wanted to say.
"It's true! They even raised the banner of those princes!" After Xiao Yu saw Li Yuan's expression of "knowing nothing", he felt a little relieved, and he felt relieved that he was the first to start the performance. With a little more confidence, he saluted Li Yuan directly and continued.
"Oh! What do you mean by loving me?" Li Yuan looked at Xiao Yu and continued to ask.
"I think Duke Lu's move is very inappropriate! It is really out of bounds to allow many princes to conduct military drills. Your Majesty should be severely punished for this matter. Otherwise, if others in the court follow suit, it will be fine. ?" Xiao Yu looked at Li Yuan and said seriously.
"Your Majesty, I have something to say!" Just when Xiao Yu finished speaking, Li Daozong on the side saluted Li Yuan directly.
"Could it be that Chengfan has a different opinion?" Hearing Li Daozong's voice, Li Yuan turned to look at Li Daozhong, while Xiao Yu secretly cursed Li Daozhong as "noisy".
"Your Majesty, I do disagree with Xiao Pushe's statement!" Li Daozong nodded at Li Yuan and continued.
"Tell me about it!" Li Yuan looked at Li Daozong with interest and said.
"Yes!" Li Daozong responded, "Xiao Pushe said that it was out of bounds for the Duke of Lu County to let those princes conduct military drills, but has Xiao Pushe ever thought about the fact that those princes led them? Are the soldiers not the imperial soldiers of the Tang Dynasty?" Li Daozong said and looked directly at Xiao Yu, waiting for Xiao Yu's reply.
"This..." When Li Daozong said this, Xiao Yu suddenly became alert. It was indeed out of bounds for these princes to conduct military exercises, but the premise was that these princes were leading the Tang Dynasty. However, now Lu Chen obviously asked these princes to act as his own back guards. There are many explanations for this, and Xiao Yu is obviously a little annoyed now that he actually put such an important The matter was forgotten.
"Even if the Beiwei Guards are the guards of Duke Lu, they are also given by His Majesty. If so, they can be regarded as my troops of the Tang Dynasty, right?" Xiao Yu rolled his eyes and looked at Li Daozong and asked directly .
"Haha!" Hearing Xiao Yu's words, Li Daozong sneered directly, "Since it was given by His Majesty, it is either owned by the Duke of Lu County or by His Majesty. How can it belong to the commander of the Tang Dynasty? If it is according to Xiao Pushe's intention, Do I also have the authority to command the guards in your house?" Li Daozong asked Xiao Yu bluntly.
Li Daozong's words directly made Xiao Yu feel short of breath. After all, if we really want to talk about "private soldiers", if we want to get to the bottom of it, it's not just the number of guards of the Xiao family, but the number of guards of any family. The number of people far exceeds the number of back Wei guards in Lujiazhuang. If we include those secretly trained by ourselves, I am afraid that the number will be calculated in units of tens of thousands.
"Even so, I'm afraid County Duke Lu doesn't have the right to let so many princes train troops for him, right? Isn't this something out of bounds?" Xiao Yu looked at Li Daozong and retorted directly in a deep voice.
"Xiao Pushe, what you said is wrong. I think that if Mr. Lu had asked several princes to lead the soldiers in military exercises, he would indeed have violated the rules. But now these princes are helping Mr. Lu It was his back Wei guards who were being trained, not to mention that the princes only did it because of our friendship, so how could this be considered inappropriate?" Li Daozong looked at Xiao Yu and asked with a smile on his face, " Just like Xiao Pushe inviting three or five friends to chat, there must be some criticism of the current situation, right? There is even the matter of Xiao Pushe inviting friends to write. Is it possible that if there is occasional disrespect, should we be held accountable? If Xiao Pushe If this is really the case, then I will respectfully call Xiao Pushe ‘Saint’!”
"This..." At first glance, Li Daozong's words made no sense at all, but Xiao Yu still felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't figure out what was wrong.
"Okay!" Seeing Xiao Yu being scolded by Li Daozong, Li Yuan was watching the show and felt that the heat was almost over, so he directly stopped the "debate" between the two.
"I know that Xiao Shiwen is dedicated to serving the public. Chengfan discusses the matter, and I understand it! Now I know about Duke Lu's 'military exercise'. In my opinion, this Lu Chen is a child Xinxing, the so-called military exercise of Bei Weiwei is probably just Lu Chen asking those princes to accompany him to play a game of leading troops to fight. It's harmless! If anyone asks, just say that I was right!" Li Yuan He immediately concluded the matter. After speaking, he looked at Li Daozong and Xiao Yu, "My dearest ladies, do you have anything else to say?"
"Since His Majesty has said so, I will naturally obey the order!" After hearing what Li Yuan said, Xiao Yu also knew that he might not be able to use this matter to attack Lu Chen. After all, Li Yuan Having said that, the military exercises that Lu Chen asked Qin Qiong and Cheng Yaojin to conduct were just children's games of leading troops to fight. If he continued to hold on to them, he might lose more than he gained.
What's more, Xiao Yu himself didn't mean to magnify the matter on the spot. If so, he might as well visit Lu Chen in the morning tomorrow. Why bother to come to Li Yuan in private like this? In fact, he has been dealing with Lu Chen for so long. , people from aristocratic families like Xiao Yu also understood that it was unrealistic to punish Lu Chen with such "unfounded" charges. What Xiao Yu did today was just to use this matter to disgust Lu Chen. the goal of.
Of course, Xiao Yu also wanted to find a sense of presence in front of Li Yuan. After all, since Lu Chen appeared, Xiao Yu, veterans of the aristocratic family, and former ministers around Li Yuan, all felt threatened by Lu Chen. Li Yuan favored Lu Chen. The extent of this made them feel frightened. Now their purpose was not to bring down or kill Lu Chen all at once, but to subtly make Li Yuan feel that Lu Chen was a sycophant, just like today's trivial matter. , little by little accumulation, in the end there will be a "quantitative change to a qualitative change", and then they will find one specific thing and kill Lu Chen at once. This is their purpose.
It's just that the arrival of Li Daozong disrupted Xiao Yu's plan.
"Well, since there is nothing else to do, please step back!" Li Yuan looked at Li Daozong and Xiao Yu, waved his hand and said, "I am a little tired and ready to take a rest!"
"Yes!" Li Yuan said this, which means he issued an order to expel guests. After Li Daozong and Xiao Yu saluted Li Yuan, they exited the Nuan Pavilion.
After the two of them put on their boots, they cupped their hands with each other, "hum" at each other, and then left the palace in two directions, one to the left and one to the right.
"Old fox!" Looking at Xiao Yu's back, Li Daozong spat and followed Li Daozhong away quickly.
"Wolf cub!" When Li Daozong turned around, Xiao Yu happened to turn his head to look at Li Daozong. Looking at Li Daozong's back that was quickly leaving, Xiao Yu also snorted coldly.
After leaving the palace, Li Daozong naturally took people to Lujiazhuang to watch the excitement. Xiao Yu got on the carriage with the service of the servant and sat in the carriage. When Xiao Yu thought of the conversation between Li Daozong and himself in the Nuan Pavilion, Xiao Yu's heart He couldn't help but feel a little annoyed, but when he thought that someone would be the first person in the morning tomorrow, Xiao Yu couldn't help but feel better. After all, there were lessons learned from that incident. Thinking of this, Xiao Yu felt better.
"Chang Bao, go see what Lu Chen is doing during this military exercise!" After Li Daozong and Xiao Yu left, Li Yuan thought for a while and then told Chang Bao.
Li Yuan thought deeply and was not thinking about Lu Chen's so-called "violating the rules", but thinking about why Lu Chen studied "military exercises" at this time. If it was for the sake of Liang Shidu, this was also the case with Weiwei. It’s no use!
What's more, Li Yuan had no intention of letting Lu Chen follow Li Xiuning to conquer Liangshidu. After all, Li Yuan had recently been thinking about giving Lu Chen a marriage. If Lu Chen was sent to assist Li Xiuning in attacking Liangshidu, his daughter would not be able to cause trouble. Kill yourself!
Therefore, Li Yuan asked Chang Bao to send people to watch this "military exercise", trying to find out what kind of medicine Lu Chen was selling in this gourd.
"Yes!" Chang Bao directly took the order and ordered people to do this. After all, basically everyone in Chang'an City knows about the flag being raised outside Lujiazhuang. There is no problem with the unscrupulous observation by bad people. .
"Master! Can you see clearly from here?" Liu Jing, who was standing next to Lu Chen, asked Lu Chen in a low voice. At this time, Lu Chen, Liu Jing and Feng Huai were standing on the hillside, looking at the people on the plain below. In a military camp, Feng Huai took out a pancake from somewhere and was eating it there! Liu Jing stretched his neck, trying to see clearly what Lu Chen was looking at.
"Of course you can't see it clearly with the naked eye! You can see it clearly with this one!" Lu Chen took out a tube-shaped object from his arms and pulled it out, turning it into a long tube with a thick end and a thin end. And this thing is naturally the "telescope" that Lu Chen asked Xiang Zheng to build according to his own drawings.
Although the magnification of this thing is not as powerful as the military telescope that Lu Chen brought out from the base, Lu Chen feels that at this time, using this thing looks more windy than using a military telescope, because when using this telescope, coupled with the gusts of wind , making Lu Chen feel like "One Piece".
"Master, is this the clairvoyant you mentioned?" Liu Jing asked curiously after seeing the telescope.
"Exactly!" Lu Chen nodded while looking at the five military camps below. But at this moment, a big face appeared in front of him, which startled Lu Chen so much that he almost didn't throw away the telescope. .
