Chapter 034 Killing intention-target locking, bold words (3)

Liu Shuyi disguised himself as a disguise and left the mansion through the back door. He was very careful. But he still did not dare to be careless. Seeing that there were few pedestrians on the road, he lowered his head and walked quickly until he passed through several alleys and came to the wide streets. He slowed down.

When I looked around, I saw that the originally bustling and noisy street market was already a little depressed at this moment. The sparse pedestrians looked panicked, as if this place was a place of right and wrong, and if they didn't leave quickly, there would be danger.

Liu Shuyi didn't understand why, so he stopped and scratched his head. He felt that this place was quite strange, not like Taiyuan City when he first came.

At this time, the footsteps sounded behind him, and someone shouted at him: "Brother Yi, go slower, we can't catch up!"

It was Xiao Liu's voice.

The title of "Yi Ge'er" was agreed upon by the two in advance. Originally, Liu Shuyi wanted Xiao Liu to call him more casually, but Xiao Liu valued the master and servant very much and refused to do so. In the end, the two sides compromised, so this happened.

Liu Shuyi didn't look back and asked, "Xiao Liu, have you heard any information when you are walking around the city recently? I see that the people in the city are panic. It must be that Taiyuan has encountered a big event, otherwise they would not have been like this."

After pondering for a moment, he continued, "Well, is there any movement in the north? Is the Turkic barbarians ambition that the army went south and invaded the territory again. Is it because of Taiyuan this time?"

Speaking of this, he was extremely frustrated and annoyed, and there seemed to be a fire burning in his chest. Although he was not proficient in the history of China for thousands of years, he also had a general understanding of the history of China. Whenever he saw the Central Plains invasion by the barbarians and the Han people were killed by barbarians, his heart could not be calm for a long time.

At the end of the Sui Dynasty and the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, it was the time when the Turks rose and were rampant. When Liu Shuyi saw the people of Taiyuan's hearts fluctuated, he took it for granted that the Turks were invading the realm again, and he couldn't help but feel angry and could not be suppressed.

He said excitedly: "Why are our descendants of Yan and Huang and Chinese children afraid of these alien captives? The people of our Chinese are several times that of the Turks. Are there no warriors who dare to defend their territory and kill their enemies and defend their homeland?

If there is no such thing as me, Liu Shuyi, will recommend myself. At worst, it will be a death, but it may not be certain who will die!

I am ambitious to eat the meat of the Huns and laugh at me and drink the blood of the Huns. How happy is it? Xiao Liu, would you like to accompany me?"

Suddenly, a sarcastic voice said, "Ha, what a big tone."

But it was Li Jiancheng.

Liu Shuyi was stunned and immediately recognized Li Jiancheng's voice, thinking to himself why he was coming. Xiao Liu didn't tell me in advance, but fortunately I didn't say anything outrageous.

He turned around and glared at Xiao Liu fiercely. Xiao Liu felt wronged. It was the eldest son of the Li family who found him and ordered him not to speak out. What would he do in this situation?

Liu Shuyi didn't know what Li Jiancheng meant, and said, "I don't know when the eldest son arrived, and I am ashamed. However, the eldest son said just now, I really don't understand. Is the eldest son unwilling to be enemies of the Turks, or do I believe that our Chinese Han compatriots can defeat the Turks?"

Li Jiancheng was speechless for a while.

His father was a Han Chinese, his mother was a Han Chinese, and of course he was also a Han Chinese. But his grandmother was not a Han Chinese, and the Li family had a close relationship with the Xianbei people.

Listening to Liu Shuyi's "alien tribe" and "huhu" every word, although he knew what Liu Shuyi said was good, he always felt a little uncomfortable.

At this moment, he didn't want to get entangled with him in this matter, so he said, "Now the Turks are powerful and rampant. The Turkic cavalry is unparalleled in the world. To defeat them, it is really difficult to accumulate strength and make plans for the long term..."

Liu Shuyi heard the most from Li Jiancheng's mouth with the four words "problems with long-term plans".

I thought to myself: This person is fine in other aspects, but he is more cautious but not brave enough, so he may not be able to achieve great things. No wonder he will eventually lose to his younger brother Li Shimin. He is cruel and harsh enough, and he must be bold and meticulous in order to achieve great things.

Before he could finish his words, he rushed to say, "What's so great about the Turkic cavalry? Isn't it just relying on the fat and strong horses? If we have enough horses, I can train a cavalry, and the Turkic cavalry that I must fight will urinate!"

Seeing that he was so angry, Li Jiancheng was quite angry, so he raised his head and said, "Well, I have such ambition at such a young age. I did not see the wrong person."

But I was thinking in my heart: Although I am not very ambitious, I am still a young man after all. I don’t know how scary Turkic cavalry is, so I can’t blame him. A child is so arrogant, just listen.

Xiao Liu was excited when he heard this. When Liu Shuyi asked, "Would you like to accompany him?", he immediately agreed, but Li Jiancheng spoke first.

At this moment, he believed in Liu Shuyi's words and thought to himself: If Brother Yi really wanted to train cavalry, I would definitely be the first to join, defend the land and kill the enemy, defend the homeland, and beat the Turks to the point of urination!

Not only Xiao Liu, but also the two heroes of the Li family who had been by their side also rose sharply. If the Turks really attack Taiyuan tomorrow, they would be willing to charge and fight bravely to the enemy.

In fact, it is not just them, but the people near Taiyuan gritted their teeth at the Turks. Those who are near the north are often ravaged by the Turks; those who are near the south are not affected yet, but their lips are lost and their teeth are cold. As long as the Turks go south, they will be called sooner or later. I have even heard of too many tyrannical records of the Turks.

For a long time, even the imperial court was afraid of the Turks, let alone ordinary people. Suddenly, a person threatened to "eat the meat of the barbarians in hunger and laughed at the thirsty and drank the blood of the Huns." How could this not be very exciting?

Although the person who said this sentence was only a fifteen-year-old boy, and despite how whimsical the idea was, these words resonated with them and ignited the hope that had been buried in their hearts for a long time.

Liu Shuyi saw at a glance that Li Jiancheng was perfunctory, and couldn't help but feel angry and said, "Young Master, please accompany me. Shuyi still has important matters that need to be handled urgently today, so say goodbye!"

After saying that, he left without waiting for Li Jiancheng to reply.

As the eldest son of the Li family in Taiyuan, Li Jiancheng has a noble status. Everyone else is respectful and flattering when they see him. Even if someone is brave enough to be ambitious, he may not dare to show the eldest son his face.

But now someone dared to pat his butt and left.

Li Jiancheng knew Liu Shuyi's temperament and was not angry. He quickly followed and said, "I know you are going to come out in the past few days. I have been waiting for you for a long time. Since you have something important, I will accompany you, maybe I can help you."

Liu Shuyi ignored him and continued to move forward, but his pace began to slow down.

After a while, Li Jiancheng said, "But Shu Yi, the Turks we had been talking about for a long time, but in fact, they didn't talk about the key points.

At this moment, Taiyuan City was indeed panicked, but it was not because of the Turks. You may not know that the prefect of Mayi is the famous general of the Sui Dynasty, General Wang Rengong, and the assistant of the Yingyang Prefecture Liu Wuzhou, Liu Zheng, the captain of the Yingyang Prefecture. Although the Turks are powerful, they cannot defeat Taiyuan for a while.

Since the people’s worries are not invasion by the Turks, do you know what is going on?”

He was determined to test Liu Shuyi to see if this incredible boy could still make a big splash without the help of his father.

Liu Shuyi did not rush to answer, and secretly thought: Wang Rengong was a famous general of a generation, but he was not a mediocre person, but he should be unlucky, but he met Liu Wuzhou. This man had a bad ambition. It was him who launched a mutiny, killed the prefect of Mayi, attached to the Turks, and went south to fight for hegemony.

He didn't want to tell Li Jiancheng about this for a moment, and said, "Well, since it's not the north, there must be something big in the south."

The south of Taiyuan County is Xihe County. There is a Rat Valley in Yong'an County. The terrain is dangerous and easy to defend but difficult to attack. There is a band of bandits gathered inside, and the leader named Zhen Zhai'er. They occupied the favorable terrain and attacked everywhere, burning, killing, looting, and it was difficult to wipe out for a while.

Could it be that the bandits are so brave that they are going to attack Taiyuan?"

Li Jiancheng was stunned and could not speak for a long time. He looked at Liu Shuyi in a daze. After a long time, he said, "How did you know? Yes, I guess it must be the little jailer who told you."

Xiao Liu was about to retort when he suddenly saw Liu Shuyi shaking his head at him. He immediately understood his feelings, curled his lips and refused to say anything.

In fact, he has been busy handling the tasks assigned by Liu Shuyi these days, looking for old people in the Liu family everywhere, without the time or energy at all, and paying attention to the mental state of the people in Taiyuan.

Liu Shuyi had already understood the situation around Taiyuan, and even discussed and deduced it many times with his father, but Xiao Liu never mentioned this matter at all.

But at this moment he was too lazy to explain, so he shook his head and signaled Xiao Liu not to speak, saying, "The situation in Taiyuan is really not optimistic now. It can be said that it is internal and external troubles, but internal..."

Li Jiancheng coughed, waved his hand to interrupt, and nodded to the two heroes. The two immediately understood and walked towards both ends of the street, waiting for the enemy to prevent strangers from approaching and eavesdropping.

Li Jiancheng said: "Don't blame Brother Shuyi. Although I was very cautious when I left the mansion, it is not an exaggeration to be careful on this troublesome time. Please continue!"

Liu Shuyi agreed and said, "No, the eldest son is more thoughtful."

He lowered his voice and continued, "There are now Wang Wei inside, Gao Junya and the two evil spirits in rebellion, and Zhen Zhai'er outside. The Turks are spying on the north and south. I hope the eldest son advises Tang Duke to make plans early and not to wander and wait and see."

These words hit Li Jiancheng's thoughts and said, "I felt that the situation in the world was not very clear before, and I agreed with my father's proposal to slowly draw. Recently, I carefully studied the words of Xian and his son, and suddenly realized the good intentions of Xian and his son.

I have repeatedly hinted to my father, but I failed in the end. With no choice, I wanted to ask my father and son to take action, which may make my father change his mind."

Liu Shuyi frowned slightly, tilted his head, and stared at Li Jiancheng. Li Jiancheng felt uncomfortable when he was seen, and he felt even more strange in his heart: What's wrong with him? Why did he look at me like this?

After a long time, Liu Shuyi asked, "Do you really want your father to persuade Mr. Tang with me?"

Li Jiancheng said: "In the world, except for the two, I'm afraid no one can persuade his father."

When Liu Shuyi saw that his face was sincere, he didn't seem to be pretending to be artificial, he thought to himself:

Did Changsun Wuji not tell Li Jiancheng what I said on the ox cart? Yes, it must be like that. Changsun Wuji deliberately hid his own private affairs, obviously he didn't want Li Jiancheng to get the credit.

I originally thought that before the Tang Dynasty's hegemony was achieved, Li Da and Li Er should help each other and cooperate with each other, but I didn't expect that before the rebellion in Taiyuan, the two were already fighting openly and secretly.

Thinking of this, he said, "For the sake of the eldest son, we are willing to give it a try, but it is difficult to guarantee whether it can succeed."

Since he was determined to help Li Shimin, he would naturally have to complete the matter of bribing Pei Ji and persuading Li Yuan. In the future, Li Yuan rewarded his merits and Li Shimin would have great merits.

Li Jiancheng didn't know what he was thinking. He heard his full promise and was overjoyed and said, "Planning is for people, and success is for heaven. Just try it out for the wise and son. If it doesn't work, let's think of him again."

Liu Shuyi's original intention was just perfunctory. At this moment, seeing Li Jiancheng's sincere joy, he thought he would really help him, and he felt a little embarrassed.

He hurriedly ended the topic and said, "I came out today to do business, so let's take action quickly."

Li Jiancheng was happy and said with a smile: "Don't others understand you, but I don't know you yet? Taiyuan City has not been peaceful recently, and the people are in a panic all day long. But in the huge Taiyuan City, can't you find a place where there are many people and people to relieve your worries? This place was originally full of traffic, but now it is different from the past. Come with me."

Liu Shuyi's trip to the mansion today has three purposes: one is to take back the servants of the Liu Mansion in the past, the second is to investigate the movements of the Wang, and the third is to be too suffocated and eager to get some breath in a busy place.

The future is long, first and second purpose are not bad to delay for a few days. I was imprisoned in prison for a long time, but after coming out, I stayed in the door for several days. What he was thinking about at this moment was of course to come out to relax. Li Jiancheng actually understood his feelings, and couldn't help but be surprised and happy.

Li Jiancheng was traveling casually today, but he did not bring his followers. The group walked on the road, but did not attract the attention of pedestrians. He was happy and talked endlessly. Later, the topic returned to the thief Zhen Zhai'er in the Bird Valley.

It was November of the 12th year of Daye. Two years ago, Wei Daoer gathered people to raise an uprising and declared his rebellion against Sui Dynasty. He received more than 100,000 people and called himself "Lishanfei". Zhen Zhaier was his other general.

In the 12th year of Daye, Wei Daoer sent Zhen Zhai'er to lead his army to attack Taiyuan and killed Sui general Pan Changwen in April of that year. Although Taiyuan was finally protected, the world was shocked. Emperor Yang Guang of Daye was worried about Taiyuan's mistakes, so he had to use Li Yuan, who was deeply suspicious of him, to serve as the remnant of Taiyuan in order to eliminate the bandits and protect Taiyuan, an important town in the northern part of the Sui Dynasty.

Liu Shuyi listened with relish. It was quite pleasant to listen to Li Jiancheng telling stories while watching the cultural landscape along the way.

At this moment, the group had arrived at the most prosperous street in Taiyuan City. What Li Jiancheng said was not a false sense. This place was indeed extraordinary, with shops, prosperous markets, crowded people, and extremely lively. From this perspective, Taiyuan City could still bear the title of the Dragon Rise of the Tang Dynasty.

The group of four talked and laughed, and walked slowly.

There were endless pedestrians around them. Although some people still had worries on their faces, they witnessed the prosperity of Taiyuan. Hope gradually rose in their hearts: Taiyuan City is high and deep, and the bandits are just mobs, how can they break in?

Thinking of this, the crowd showed bright smiles on their faces, and they all remembered the purpose of the trip. Looking around, the dazzling array of street stalls and groceries were dazzling.

In order to attract customers, the stall owners and restaurants on both sides of the street spared no effort to shout loudly, and all kinds of hawking sounds were heard.

The children gathered in groups of three or five at the toy stall, chatting and shouting. The stall owner waved his hand and immediately dispersed, but soon, those innocent faces would appear at another grocery stall.

At this moment, I suddenly heard a yell in the distance: Get out of here, get out of here!

This arrogant tone is inconsistent with the atmosphere at this moment, and it makes people feel annoying. Time seems to be still at this moment. Everyone is stunned at first, but after they wake up, they scatter and dodge in an instant.

The noisy streets were immediately silent and terrifying. Everyone moved to the sides of the street, leaving a middle avenue.

Some women seemed to want to stop their children from making noises, and they covered the child's mouth with both hands, which made the child's face flushed, but they still dared not let go.
