Chapter 18: It is already

Li Yuan is a suspicious person by nature. Suspicion is his nature. In this world, he will not really believe in a person. Even Pei Ji, Li Yuan has reserved his trust in him. However, it is undeniable that Li Yuan is not a fool.

Li Yuan knew very well who was good for him, who was loyal to him, who was lip service to him, and who was disobedient to him, who was unfaithful to him.

On the surface, Li Yuan has a big face and thick ears, and seems honest, but if anyone really treats Li Yuan as a fool, he will definitely die miserably. For example, Liu Wenjing and Liu Wenjing rebelled, Li Yuan didn't believe it at all.

When Pei Ji fabricated the charge of Liu Wenjing's rebellion, Li Yuan pretended to trust Pei Ji without reservation. In fact, it was just Li Yuan playing with imperial power.

Although Liu Wenjing was the Minister of the Tang Dynasty, the Right Pushe, and was ranked second in the prime minister under Pei Ji. He seemed to be in a high position and powerful position. In fact, all the power of Liu Wenjing was given by Li Yuan. Without Li Yuan's fish talisman, Liu Wenjing could not mobilize a soldier, or even a sword and a sword in the Chang'an treasury. Without Li Yuan's will, Liu Wenjing could not move the Tang Dynasty's heroes.

Such a rebellion of Liu Wenjing is actually a funny joke, unless Liu Wenjing is pretending to be feces in her mind, but Liu Wenjing has a necessary reason to die.

It shouldn't be, it shouldn't be. Liu Wenjing shouldn't be strongly supported by Li Shimin at the wrong time. Liu Wenjing shouldn't be trying to use his own power to influence Li Yuan's will to depose the crown prince Li Jiancheng and change to the King of Qin. After Qianbuyuan's great victory, Li Shimin took the victory to capture the thief's head, destroyed his fortune, and returned to Chang'an with great ambition. At this time, the prince's morale was not only low, but also forced Li Jiancheng to pretend to be sick in bed, using this method to protect himself.

In this case, Li Yuan could only suppress Li Shimin and maintain a delicate balance between the Eastern Palace and the Qin Palace within the court. In this case, Pei Ji, who was familiar with Li Yuan, saw that Li Yuan had a murderous intention toward Liu Wenjing, and then fabricated the so-called evidence of Liu Wenjing's rebellion.

Leveraging Li Yuan's hand, he removed Liu Wenjing. In fact, Li Yuan had already seen that Liu Wenjing would not rebel. The reason was very simple. Liu Wenjing had no strength to rebel at all, nor had the motivation to rebel. However, Liu Wenjing intervened in the dispute between the Eastern Palace and the King of Qin and tried to break the balance between the Eastern Palace and the King of Qin, which made Li Yuan very dissatisfied.

Li Jiancheng was bedridden for half a year and was given by Liu Wenjing, so he killed Liu Wenjing, which was only a powerful deterrent to the ministers who were eager to take the lead. Li Yuan used Liu Wenjing's head to warn important officials of the court.

Li Yuan is the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, he is the heaven of the Tang Dynasty, and he can only get what he gives. No one can reach out to what he does not give. Otherwise, Liu Wenjing will end up, and the heaven of the Tang Dynasty is Li Yuan. Even if Liu Wenjing has the merit of opening up the Tang Dynasty, as long as he does not have the emperor Li Yuan, he will be dead.

The collapse of the Tang Dynasty in Hedong was almost always the result of Li Jiancheng and Li Jiancheng's subordinate Chen Ying turning the tide and conquering the chaos. Now Li Jiancheng has the virtue of calming the people, the benevolence of the Tang Dynasty's rule, the grace of the official system, and the martial arts have the merit of pacifying Liu Wuzhou and Song Jingang. The limelight has completely overwhelmed Li Shimin. At this time, Li Shimin will be the limelight.

Suddenly, Li Yuan looked at Pei Ji with a smile.

Being stared at Li Yuan's sharp eyes, Pei Ji's heart instantly raised to his throat. It turned out that Li Yuan had not forgotten that one thing, and it was really a regret that he had fallen into eternal regret. With Pei Ji's identity and status at this time, it can be said that he was below one person and above ten thousand people. What kind of woman he wanted was not like, why bother?

Besides, last night, her eyes were drunk and Pei Ji didn't even see the appearance of the palace maid clearly. If it were the fat girl from Shangyi Bureau, Pei Ji would rather hit the wall...

Pei Ji was still thinking about the romance last night, but Li Yuan thought it was Chen Ying.

It was not that Chen Ying was young and made great contributions, but because in the hall, Chen Ying and Li Yuan asked each other in person to marry Princess Pingyang.

If Chai Shao had not died, Li Yuan would never agree to the marriage, but now, Chen Ying's words seemed to echo in his ears: "Marry Princess Pingyang's wife at all costs!!!"

After a while, Pei Ji sighed and said with a sad face: "Your Majesty, the old minister is guilty of death, please punish him."

Li Yuan did not speak. Li Yuan, who was standing under the huge plaque in Ganlu Hall, had his eyes so stern that it was so stern that it was afraid to look directly at him.

The prince needs comfort, and Li Shimin needs opportunities.

Li Yuan said: "How many cities did Wang Shichong seize my Tang Dynasty?"

Pei Ji was stunned, but he immediately reacted and replied without thinking: "Thirty-seven."

In fact, Pei Ji's number is purely a hooligan. When Li Mi was the most powerful, more than 100 counties in the south of the Yellow River to the north of the Huai River, west to Hulao, east to Jiyin, all belonged to Li Mi's territory. However, after Li Mi was defeated by Wang Shichong, the remaining twelve counties were nominally inherited by Xu Shiji, but Xu Shiji only had more than 10,000 troops. Later, after receiving the support of Li Jiancheng's materials, he only raised more than 20,000 troops and could not defend such a large territory. Instead, Wang Shichong took advantage of Liu Wuzhou to conquer Hedong and took the opportunity to seize Xu Shiji's territory.

Li Yuan said: "Pei Jian, he is preparing to draft the plan, and he is the chief officer of the military commander of Shandong Dao, General Tiance, Qu Tutong is the Minister of the Shangtai of Shandong Dao, Left Pushe, General Tiance of General Tiance, General Tiance of the Mansion, Yipushe, Yin Kaishan of the Shandong Dao, Right Pushe, General Tiance of the Mansion, Sima of the General Tiance of the Mansion, Chu Liang is the General Tiance of General Tiance, and commands the left and right Xiaowei, left and right Wuwei, left and right imperial guards, Yuan, and the second and second, and the twenty-nine states of the military. He punishes the people and the crimes of attacking the people."

With Li Yuan's order, the war machine of the Tang Empire, which had just recovered Hedong and had not yet returned to the dynasty, started to move again.

...

The willful and willful Dou Xianniang started to scatter, and Ling Jing had no choice but to deal with her. Although Chen Ying's guards accidentally shot her, that was the responsibility of the entourage. Just say that, Dou Xianniang was rude first.

When Ling Jing learned that Dou Xianniang had not suffered any grievances, she had to do her best to make things small, and to fulfill Dou Jiande's instructions. In fact, Chen Ying did not want to cause trouble. For Chen Ying, Dou Jiande, who was doomed to be defeated, would not provoke him if he could.

The misunderstanding explained that Chen Ying returned Dou Xianniang to Ling Jing, and these black-clothed warriors also slowly dispersed.

Chen Ying was determined to solve the steel problem of the Tang Dynasty and wanted to use this to make a deal with Li Yuan to get Li Yuan to agree to Li Xiuning's marriage to him.

However, after Dou Xianniang made such a fuss, Chen Ying realized that living outside the city had no way to guarantee safety. However, the open expansion of his escort force would make Li Yuan think more.

For this reason, Chen Ying fell into trouble again.

However, Chen Ying changed the long-term work system to the Tiangong system, which raised five or six hundred people every day, and used these five or six hundred young and strong laborers to quickly build the manor in Qinglin.

Everything is difficult at the beginning, but once it starts, things will become simple.

At first, Chen Ying had only one small wooden house in the Qinglin. This small wooden house was only more than 100 square meters. It was not only Chen Ying's office and also his place to stay.

At noon, Liang Zan picked up forty or fifty kiln workers who had burned bricks and tiles and began to build kilns and make bricks and tiles. At the same time, two temporary wooden houses were built on the left and right wings of the wooden house.

The wooden house was surrounded by wooden stakes to form a chest-high chest wall. The simple triangular shelf watch tower also became a permanent watch tower. The tower was not yet one, but it stretched in all directions with the wooden house as the center. When more than a dozen watch towers were erected, at least 3,000 acres of Chenjiazhuang in Qinglin was already visible.

By the evening, Chen Ying fell in love with the yard made of three wooden houses at a glance. The skillful craftsmen split wood into tiles and tied wood into walls. The floor of the wooden houses was also paved with wooden boards to flatten the three wooden houses, and the corridors were connected together. The handrails were made of pine wood. There was a kennel at the entrance of the courtyard, and a few lush green bamboos were planted in the corner, full of vitality.

Chen Ying went in and looked around. Even the tables, benches, beds, cups and bowls inside were made of pine wood. Xu Jingzong was so envious that he wanted to take the wooden house for himself.

Looking at the green light coming out of Xu Jingzong's eyes, Chen Ying smiled and said, "Stop looking, this house is not yours."

Hearing this, Xu Jingzong felt sad and lost.

However, Chen Ying changed his mind: "The room on the left side will be given to you for temporary residence..."
