Chapter 6 Helan Yue Stone

Li Ke and Hou Junji were incompatible. It was indeed an indisputable fact that Li Ke had a feud because of the candidates for the Northern Expedition. But that time, it was just Li Ke who discussed the matter, not targeted Hou Junji. If it were just for this matter, Li Ke would have the intention to ask Hou Junji to live, which would be too early and too sarcastic.

However, although Li Ke did not intend to move Hou Junji, Hou Junji had already regarded Li Ke as the enemy of life and death. Because Hou Junji knew very well why he had today, he did not want to be a loser.

But just when Hou Junji regarded Li Ke as the enemy and was thinking about how to deal with Li Ke, Li Ke did not take this potential threat at all at all. In Li Ke's eyes, his biggest threat was Li Chengqian and Changsun Wuji, and he, Hou Junji, needed to take a moment later.

In the study room in the inner courtyard of the Chu King's Mansion, Li Ke was watching the books on the customs and customs he ordered people to collect in the past few days. At this moment, Xue Rengui suddenly entered the house and passed Wu Meiniang's words: Helan Yueshi and Wu Shun were waiting in the front hall and said goodbye to Li Ke before leaving.

Previously, Helan Yueshi was recommended by Li Ke to serve as an official under the tent of King Li Daozong of Jiangxia, and made some military achievements. After returning to Chang'an, he was named General of the Left Leader Guard.

The left-leading guards belong to the imperial guards and are stationed in the capital. Unless there is an emperor's order to recruit war, they are usually not allowed to leave the capital. However, Li Ke has not received any news about the Helan Yueshi external transfer. Why did he leave the capital in a good manner?

Although Li Ke didn't know why, Helan Yueshi was a brother-in-law with Li Ke after all. Li Ke was not in a position to neglect, so he put down his work and went straight to the front hall.

"The last person to pay homage to His Highness to Helan Yueshi."

"Wu Shun pays homage to Your Highness."

Li Ke quickly walked towards the front hall. As soon as he entered the hall, Wu Shun and Helan Yueshi stood up together and worshiped Li Ke.

Seeing this, Li Ke quickly helped Helan Yueshi and Wushun up, signaled them to get up, and then asked Helan Yueshi: "Brother came here suddenly today, why didn't you send someone to inform me in advance? I'm so ready, and you won't wait here for a long time."

Helan Yueshi replied: "Your Highness is busy with state affairs. It is a private matter for the last visit. How dare you delay your Highness's affairs?"

Li Ke raised his hand, signaled the two of them to sit down, and then said, "It's all my family, so you don't have to be polite. But I heard Rengui's message and said that my brother was about to travel far away, but I don't know why?"

Helan Yueshi sat down and said, "The last time the general will follow Duke Chen to the west to Gaochang, it will only take one or two days to do it. Today, I will say goodbye to Your Highness."

Li Ke asked in confusion: "You are in the left commander guard, Hou Junji is in the right guard, Hou Junji is in the right guard, and Hou Junji is on his father's order to go to Gaochang. The first choice for the soldiers accompanying him is his right guard, so what does it have to do with your left commander guard?"

Helan Yueshi replied: "This time happened to be the invasion of Tubo, and the right guard was short of troops, so Hou Junji asked for orders to second it to my left-leading guard."

Li Ke frowned and asked, "The Right Guard has many people, why is it you? Could it be that Hou Junji wants it?"

Helan Yueshi shook his head and said, "The Holy Spirit is the last general who asked General Cheng to go."

Li Ke thought about it and nodded, "It's no wonder. The deputy commander of the Western Expedition, Qi Bi Heli, was once the general of the left-leading guard. He followed Hou Jun to the west to Gaochang, and it was reasonable to second the troops from the left-leading guard."

Helan Yueshi said: "That's true, the last general saw this opportunity and wanted to join the army to build another achievement, so he asked for an appointment."

"Brother serves the country and wants to make achievements is a good thing, but..." Li Ke said, picking up the tea bowl at hand and wanting not to drink it, with a hint of disgrace on his face.

Seeing this, Helan Yueshi asked in confusion: "But what is wrong with what I did?"

Li Ke waved his hand and said, "The brother is doing nothing wrong, but Hou Junji and I have some grudges. You are my brother-in-law. If you are under his position, I am worried that he will make things difficult for you."

Helan Yueshi was appointed as the General of the Central Army in the left-leading Guard and was also among the high-ranking generals of the Imperial Guard. He naturally knew some rumors in the army. Li Ke had a little dispute with Hou Junji about the vanguard of the Northern Expedition. Helan Yueshi also knew about this.

Helan Yueshi said: "No matter how brave Hou Junji is, he should not dare to face His Highness openly, let alone he is also a general in the army. How dare he play tricks on major issues in the army?"

Li Ke said worriedly: "On the surface, he naturally dared not, but was afraid that he would act recklessly. Hou Junji acted ruthlessly and decisively. My brother was working under his tent. I was a little worried."

Listening to Li Ke's words, Wu Shun, who was standing aside, suddenly became worried. As Li Ke said, Hou Junji had a grudge with Li Ke, and the relationship between Helan Yueshi and Li Ke was well known to everyone in the world. If Hou Junji intends to target him, Helan Yueshi is not Li Ke, so how could he be Hou Junji's opponent?

Wu Shun said: "What Your Highness says makes sense. Hou Junji is not a gentleman. If he attacks the army, what should he do to make things difficult for his husband? The husband is in his prime and does not rush to be in trouble with these achievements. Why don't you resign and stay in the capital to help His Highness serve. Isn't that good?"

Although what Wu Shun said was a bit conservative, it was not without reason. Li Ke is now in high reputation and the situation in the court is very good. There is still a chance to reach the 95th in the future. Wu Shun and Wu Meiniang are sisters, Helan Yueshi and Li Ke are brother-in-law. As long as Li Ke ascends the throne in the future, as royal relatives and relatives, how could they lack wealth and honor, and why should they take risks for their current merits?

Li Ke also said: "The General Cheng Zhijie, the left-leading guard, has some friendship with me, and he still gives me the face. If my brother doesn't go, I only need to give Cheng Zhijie a sentence and change someone, it's no problem."

Cheng Zhijie and Qin Shubao started together in a weak relationship, and Li Ke was also a disciple of Qin Shubao, and he had a good relationship with Cheng Zhijie. Li Ke still had this face in front of Cheng Zhijie.

Helan Yueshi said resolutely: "This matter is inappropriate. If the last general is a brother-in-law with His Highness, he can retreat in the face of the battle. If this matter is spread, it may be unfavorable to His Highness and it is difficult to explain it in the army. The last general is also a military minister, so how can he be afraid of war? At this time, the last general will ask for his order and go there."

Li Ke looked at Helan Yueshi's appearance and knew in his heart that Helan Yueshi had obviously made up his mind, so he nodded and stopped persuading him, just saying, "Although Hou Junji is not in harmony with me, he dare not make things difficult for you on the surface. You should be more cautious when you act. As long as you can save your life, no matter what, there will always be a king in Chang'an court to tell you."

"I thank you so much for your highness." Helan Yueshi stood up and bowed to Li Ke.

Li Ke also stood up and bowed, "I am waiting for my brother's triumphant voice in the capital, and then I will celebrate my brother's merits in the mansion."
