Chapter 96: Alternative Love Tokens

Li Daozhen rode on a blue-black horse, and the mo knife that made Chen Ying still feel palpitations was standing in front of his knees. Li Daozhen stared at the lancers marching into the array.

Looking at Li Daozhen's cold face, Chen Ying secretly complained in his heart: "Why is this aunt here?"

Li Daozhen shouted loudly: "Does Marquis of Wugong plan to leave like this?"

Chen Ying broke his scalp and bowed, "What are you going to do?"

"My brother is injured..." Li Daozhen said: "My brother is the military commander of Dingyuan Army. It would be too unkind to say goodbye to leave without saying goodbye!"

Chen Ying immediately understood that since Li Yuan had restored his official position and was appointed as the General of the Left Wu Guard, of course, it was not that Li Yuan was completely relieved of him. Li Daozong's official position as the envoy of the military was still there, and Li Daozong turned danger into safety, but there was no way to get a long distance bump.

Chen Ying said: "This matter is something Chen is not thinking about! Chen will go to the city to meet Duke Lueyang!"

Xu Jingzong wanted to speak but stopped: "This..."

Zhao Chunyang gave Xu Jingzong a wink and told him not to speak. Xu Jingzong didn't know that Chen Ying almost died under Li Daozhen's sword. Chen Ying looked at everyone and said, "Then I'll go there first and say to Mr. Lueyang in person, you can wait for me to come in the north."

Li Daozhen didn't say anything nonsense, turned his horse's head and led his men to the valley.

Chen Ying followed closely behind when he beat a horse.

After Li Daozong was assassinated, he stayed in Gaoping County. However, when Li Daozong's injuries improved, Li Daozong insisted on moving out of the county government and staying in Gaoping Station. The courtyard, which was originally not big at Gaoping Station, was completely taken over by Li Daozong's personal entourages, and it was more than 100 entourages openly or secretly, protecting Gaoping Station to the point of being unblocked.

Chen Ying followed Li Daozhen into the Mingtang hall of the post station, bowed to Li Daozong who was standing at the entrance of the hall, and said, "I have met Mr. Lueyang!"

Although Chen Ying's official position at this time was higher than that of Li Daozong, Li Daozong was the fourth-class founding Duke of Lueyang County and regarded as the second-class. Chen Ying was only the sixth-class founding Duke of the county and regarded as the third-class. The difference between the middle was three levels.

"Hahaha..." Li Daozong laughed and said, "As colleagues from you and me in the future, why should we be so polite? We are of the same age, so why not be called brothers!"

Li Daozong met with Chen Ying, so naturally he was not discussing military affairs. In fact, he was not concerned about military affairs in Lingzhou. His elder brother was like his father, and what Li Daozong was most worried about was Li Daozhen's marriage issue. Li Daozhen can be said to be infamous, and the entire Chang'an nobles avoided it.

According to the customs of this era, if you want to discuss Chen Ying's marriage, you should discuss it with Chen Ying's elders. However, Chen Ying's situation is very special. Chen Ying has neither family nor elders. Moreover, Li Daozong also wants to see what Chen Ying is like before formally getting married. Although he has heard a lot of rumors about Chen Ying, hearing is false and seeing is true. Li Daozong believes in his eyes even more.

Seeing that Li Daozong was so easy to talk, Chen Ying didn't think much about it. At this moment, Chen Ying was also ignorant of Li Yuan's desire to marry him. Chen Ying said: "What's so?"

Li Daozong said: "How can I not do it? How old is the wise and virtuous brother of Daozong? I will ask Daoyou brother!"

To be honest, Chen Ying didn't want to offend Li Daozong, the military supervisor. If Li Daozong gave him some eye medicine, Chen Yingke would not be able to take it and leave. Chen Ying said openly: "Brother!"

"Brother!" Li Daozong stepped forward and dragged Chen Ying's hands and said, "Come on, come on, please come on..."

Li Daozong looked at Li Daozhen secretly looking at Chen Ying, and his face showed a little rosy. Li Daozong sighed for a moment that he could make Li Daozhen look like a little daughter, but Li Daozong himself didn't know what to say.

Li Daozong sighed softly and threw away the distracting thoughts in his heart. Chen Ying's appearance was originally feminine, but in the martial country of the Tang Dynasty, it was not beautiful. However, as Chen Ying slept in the wind in Lingzhou, Chen Ying's skin color was much darker than before, and her fair and jade-like skin disappeared, and was replaced by a wheat-colored skin.

In addition, Chen Ying defeated the Turks in a row, cultivated a sense of freedom and self-confidence, and his every move was also heroic.

Li Daozong decided to test Chen Ying's reaction first. If Chen Ying wanted to say that he had already loved someone, this matter would be completely forgotten by both parties.

Li Daozong and Chen Yingdong were having a rash talk, almost exhausting Chen Ying's patience, so he vaguely asked Chen Ying if he had a partner he liked? Do you need his help to propose marriage?

Chen Ying naturally had a favorite, that is Princess Pingyang Li Xiuning. But how dare he say it? Let’s not mention that Princess Pingyang already has a prince consort. Even the huge gap in their identities is an insurmountable gap.

When Li Daozong heard Chen Ying say no, he was full of joy.

However, Li Daozong did not mention Li Daozhen's incident, and what made Chen Ying feel even more amazing was that Li Daozhen gave Chen Ying a pair of armor before leaving. This was a pair of dazzling bright light armor, with golden purple inlaid with cloud pattern and animal leather (tube sleeves), bright golden line Yunwen's short knee battle skirt, and a red embellishment on the neck guarding the neck.

Chen Ying took the armor and sighed secretly. Such a set of such a dazzling armor will definitely become the target of the enemy as long as he goes to the battlefield. Wearing such a set of armor on the battlefield is like a birthday star hanging - he is disgusted with his longevity.

However, Chen Ying didn't think much about it. He didn't even think that it was a token of love given to him by Li Daozhen.

If Chen Ying knew that this was his token of love, he would probably spew out three feet of old blood.

The token of love can be given gold and silver or jade ornaments. Even if it is a piece of clothing, Chen Ying would think of it, but Li Daozhen gave him a piece of bright light armor.

So, this misunderstanding became a big deal.

...

On March 25, 2018, the second year of Wude, Chen Ying led more than 300 strong soldiers of the Yue Cavalry Group, and also brought Xu Jingzong who had deceived him to Lingzhou City.

At this time, the chief of Lingzhou, Yang Ze, was promoted to the governor of Lingzhou because of his achievements in the battle of Lingzhou. Yang Ze was promoted from being a regular official and a prosecutor of the official, and then he could enter the ranks of third-rank officials (high-rank officials).

After three days of observation in Lingzhou City, Xu Jingzong immediately raised a fatal question to Chen Ying. How to solve the supply problems of Dingyuan Army, Shengjie Army and Sujie Army?

The imperial court gave Chen Ying a staff of more than 12,000 people, but Chen Ying actually had more than 22,000 people in the six governments and five departments, which was nearly twice as much as the staff. Of course, when the world was not determined, eating a vacancy was simply a demand for death. Excessive membership was the norm in this era, but how to solve the supply problem is the most important thing.
