Chapter 172 Wei Zheng, your courage is fat
Chapter 172 Wei Zheng, you are so brave
In the Wude Hall of Tai Chi Palace in Chang'an, a pot was set up in a very disharmonious manner. The pot was stewed with mutton, and the splashes were rolling, making people salivate. Li Yuan held a fork and inserted a piece of mutton and handed it to Li Jiancheng's bowl in front of him.
At this time, Li Jiancheng had cleared a lot, which made people feel distressed. There was no flesh on his cheeks, and his wide robe wrapped in a human-shaped skeleton.
Li Jiancheng looked at the mutton in the bowl. The mutton in the bowl had piled up like mountains, but Li Jiancheng did not move his chopsticks. He just grabbed the teacup and took a sip.
Li Yuan is no longer like the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, but more like a father who loves his son, saying, "Eat more, eat more..."
Li Jiancheng shook his head lightly and said, "Dad, I have been eating vegetarian food these past few months and can't stand the meat..."
Li Yuan ignored Li Jiancheng and said to himself: "You are the prince of the Tang Dynasty. You must not eat vegetarian food. There is no prince named vegetarian food in the Tang Dynasty. You should eat meat... Erlang is in Taiyuan, and he can't lose his food in one bite. He has always been strong and has no food. He will find a way for himself. You are under my nose. As the crown prince, I can't eat a meal of meat for a month or two. I am the emperor, I owe you the prince... I am the father... I owe you the son..."
Li Jiancheng did not move the meat in the bowl, and choked and defended: "Dad, it is the meaning of the son-in-law. Last year, I thought that the Eastern Turks would definitely go south to attack the border due to drought. I never thought that Xueyantu's tribe would go south first and plunder the Eastern Turks Xilamulun River. The Eastern Turks and Xueyantu launched a battle of more than 400,000 troops from the two countries on the banks of the Western Turks!"
Originally, the Eastern Turks were greatly damaged under Chen Ying's repeated attacks, especially outside Dingran City, where Li Shimin defeated his army, which seriously threatened the dominance of Jie Li Khan. However, at this time, Yi Nan thought that the Eastern Turks were no longer able to do so, so he joined forces with dozens of tribes in the north of the desert to attack Jie Li Khan, preparing to take the Eastern Turks and replace them, and become the overlord on the grassland.
However, in fact, it was shocking. Jie Li Khan used his main force to attract the attention of Yi Nan Khan, but Princess Yi Cheng pretended to agree to attack Jie Li Khan. As a result, at the critical moment, she stood firmly on the side of Jie Li Khan. Taking advantage of Yi Nan's care, Princess Yi Cheng raised troops for the first time in the Eastern Turks, led more than 40,000 elite troops to defeat Yi Nan Khan in ten consecutive battles, and won ten victories in ten battles, defeating Xue Yantuo's tribe.
After this battle, the Eastern Turks plundered more than 100,000 people from the Xueyantuo tribe and millions of cattle, sheep and horses. This not only wiped out the decline of the Eastern Turks over the years, but also greatly intimidated the grassland tribes.
Listening to Li Jiancheng mentioning the battle on the Mobei Grassland, Li Yuan waved his hand and said, "Dalang, the Tang Dynasty is no longer as good as before. Now, Li Jing, the left assistant minister of the Ministry of War, and Li Xiaogong, the Prince of Zhao, led more than 200,000 troops in Lingnan to return to Beijing. Even if the Turks invade again, why are our Tang Dynasty afraid of it?"
Li Jiancheng sighed and said, "Dad, the Tang Dynasty was established in the early days, and the battles were everywhere, and the expenses were very expensive. Chang'an is now luxurious. As the prince, the son minister does not set an example, and the people below will not pay attention to it. What's more, the soldiers prepare for war on the front line and save money in order to support the front line. I, the prince, have the responsibility to do this!"
Li Yuan sighed silently.
Li Jiancheng continued: "What's more, in the Qin Palace, the Qin Prince's Palace, these days are also...
Li Yuan interrupted Li Jiancheng and said, "I know all this, you don't need to say that today, it is your father, who gave his family a day off and invited his family to have a meal of meat.
Li Jiancheng held the bowl in his hand tightly, and couldn't say a word.
Li Yuan ordered the Huangmen around him to say: "Make another three pots of pork and send it to King Qin and King Qi's mansion. There is also Pingyang..."
Speaking of this, Li Yuan suddenly remembered that Li Xiuning had already gone to the Western Regions.
Chen Ying, the son-in-law and Li Xiuning, the most beloved daughter, were not in Chang'an, and no family left behind in Chang'an City. Li Yuan said: "Send a pot of meat to Dr. Hou Mochen!"
The yellow gate took the order and left.
Li Yuan turned to Li Jiancheng again and said, "Eat quickly, eat quickly..."
Li Jiancheng smiled and finally started to eat it voraciously.
Li Jiancheng and Li Yuan and his son ate the meat stewed by Li Yuan. At this point, the aftermath of Yang Wengan's rebellion was completely revealed.
After Li Jiancheng finished his meal, his complexion improved a lot, and then he returned to the East Palace with satisfaction. When he walked to the entrance of the East Palace, he saw Wei Zheng and Li Shiji waiting side by side outside the East Palace gate.
Li Jiancheng looked at Li Shiji curiously and said, "Xuancheng, Maogong, why don't you go in?"
Li Shiji bowed and said, "The disciples come to say goodbye to His Highness the Prince, and I won't go in!"
Li Jiancheng's face became weird: "Say your goodbye?"
It turned out that Li Shiji was the deputy general manager of Bingzhou appointed by Li Jiancheng and the general manager of Bingzhou. He was considered Li Shimin's deputy. In fact, he also had the intention of checking and balancing Li Shimin. However, Li Shiji was not a member of the Li Tang royal family, and he really couldn't control Li Shimin. Just as Changsun Wuji was in the Western Regions, Chen Ying hung up the chief of Changsun Wuji, the chief minister of the Great Protectorate, and Changsun Wuji had no choice but to do anything about it.
Li Shiji smiled bitterly and said, "The subordinates will take office as the head of Lingzhou. They will go to Lingzhou soon!"
Li Jiancheng said in surprise: "When did Your Majesty issue this edict... Why don't I know, Xuancheng, did this edict not show off to the East Palace?"
The Bingzhou General Administration is the Shangzhou General Administration Office, which is on the same level as the Dadu Protector. The Grand Administrative Office is from the second rank, but the Lingzhou General Administration is only the Xiazhou General Administration Office, and the General Administration is only the fourth rank. Li Shiji was originally from the third rank deputy chief administrator, but has now been demoted to become the Lingzhou General Administration, which surprised Li Jiancheng very much. Li Shiji was not at fault. Even if Li Shiji was transferred from Bingzhou, it would need to be transferred at least to Li Shiji as the Shangzhou Deputy Chief Administrative Officer or Zhongzhou General Administration. However, now Li Shiji has been demoted to one level for no reason.
Wei Zheng shook his head and said, "Your Majesty has no order to issue it!"
Li Jiancheng said with even more confusion: "What's going on?"
Li Shiji said: "This is the order of the King of Qin, and the edict will be added after the edict!"
Wei Zheng was stunned for a moment, then shook his head in a funny way.
Li Jiancheng said: "It's so presumptuous! The deputy general manager of Bingzhou appointed by this palace, he would be exempted if he said he would be exempted. Is there any other kingly law?"
Li Shiji was also very wronged. After all, no one wants to be demoted by officials. What's more, he is demoted without mistakes. You should know that to move from a fourth-rank chief manager to a third-rank chief, you need to move from a main hall to a high-rank officer like in the future. It's a gate of hell. I don't know how many people will be stuck.
Xu Shiji looked at Wei Zheng: Isn’t it right?
Wei Zheng did not respond positively, but instead whispered: "Since you have joined the prince's disciple, remember that you must not get too close to Li Shimin, it will not do you good."
Xu Shiji was stunned: "Master...you mean..."
Wei Zheng shook his head and interrupted him: Ji Sun's worries are within the Xiao Wall!
Li Jiancheng frowned without saying a word.
Wei Zheng said: "In a court, the emperor can issue an edict, the prince can issue a prince's order, the two princes, the King of Qin and the King of Qi, can issue a mission. In the Taiyuan army, the King of Qin can appoint the general manager of the army far away in Lingzhou...
Li Jiancheng's face changed slightly, and he waved his sleeves and said, "Go in and say!"
Li Shiji was shocked.
Wei Zheng shook his head and said sarcastically: "I will go out with many families, my country is not a country, my father is not a father, my king is not a king, the crown prince and the king of Qin are both brothers and ministers..."
Li Jiancheng said with a pale face: "Stop talking!"
"No!" Wei Zheng thrust his neck and said loudly: "Your Highness, I want to say it!"
Li Jiancheng looked at Wei Zheng.
Wei Zheng said: "I know that the Crown Prince does not want to see Ji Sun's worries, and the disaster has caused Xiao Wall. However, the King of Qin has been leading troops outside for a long time and is worthy of power. Now he wants to change the official assistant appointed by the Crown Prince. This is actually a test."
Li Shiji stared at Wei Zheng who was talking nonstop and was stunned.
He didn't see that Wei Zheng would be so brave.
When he was in Wagang, Wei Zheng joined the army as Li Mi's record room. Even if Li Mi looked at him, Wei Zheng would understand and speak as Li Mi liked. Now he dared to contradict Li Jiancheng, and his courage became stronger!
Li Jiancheng's eyes were like lightning, staring at Wei Zheng with a dead end.
Wei Zheng did not give in at all, looking at Li Jiancheng like a fighting rooster.
Li Jiancheng exudes a strong aura of superiors. Li Jiancheng has been in the position of prince for a long time. The aura of being powerful without anger is really unbearable for ordinary people.
However, Wei Zheng was unmoved.
Just as Li Jiancheng moved forward to Wei Zheng, the two of them almost had their faces.
Using a line from "Wolf Warrior", you usually either kiss or fight at this position.
However, Li Jiancheng and Wei Zheng did not fight. Wei Zheng said solemnly: "Your Highness, Prince, you are wrong!"
Li Jiancheng pointed at his face in disbelief and said, "Is this the palace wrong?"
"Not bad!" Wei Zheng said loudly: "Your Highness, you are wrong!"
Li Jiancheng laughed furiously and said, "I want to hear what other high-profile Wei Xuancheng you have!"
Wei Zheng said lightly: "Your Highness, you are wrong. You should not avoid such a thing, you should face it bravely!"
Li Jiancheng said: "Xuancheng, don't you know that you don't plan for the most important things! Do you even understand this principle?"
Wei Zheng said coldly: "Why can't we plan for big things on everyone?"
"Because there are so many people, it makes you feel mixed!" Li Jiancheng said almost angrily: "What's more, this suspicious thing is announced to everyone! This matter should be held down. As long as it is not spread, the rumors outside will always be just rumors. But if it is spread to the army, what will you do if you let the King of Qin do it yourself! Even if he can still insist on fighting, can you ensure that the soldiers on the front line do not have any unfair intentions??"
