Lawyer Pei said rather dissatisfied: "It's really annoying that the Feng family is still having a banquet at such a late hour!"

Pei Ji walked out of the room slowly and stood in the courtyard.

Lawyer Pei was filled with righteous indignation: "Father, why do you sit and watch His Majesty dismiss Xiao Yu and Chen Shuda today? Then Wei Zheng is too crazy. He is old, he was just a fourth-rank son of Zuo Shu."

Pei Ji shook his head, patted Lawyer Pei's shoulder lightly and said, "Don't ask so many questions, and don't take part in the court affairs at will. Then Wei Zheng is Li Jiancheng, a dog used to rectify the court, so Li Jiancheng will serve him as a servant. The purpose of being a part-time doctor of imperial censors is to let him out to bite people at critical times."

Lawyer Pei frowned puzzled and said, "Father means, is this just a joke?"

Pei Ji nodded and said: "After the change of Xuanwumen, Li Jiancheng didn't replace the prime ministers with his own people. That's because at that time, he was not able to gain a stable foothold. Now that the food famine in Guanzhong has been relieved, Li Jing, the general of the imperial court, , Li Xiaogong, Li Daozong, Qin Qiong, Niu Junda, Xie Yingdeng, Zhang Gongjin, and even Li Shentong surrendered to Li Jiancheng, and now his position has been secured, so the time to sort out the prime ministers of the three provinces is ripe."

Chen Shuda's mansion, when he heard that Li Jing was coming to visit, he hurried out to greet him.

Chen Shuda looked at Li Jing and said: "Pharmacist, you will go to the Three Treasure Hall for nothing!"

Li Jing smiled lightly and said, "Old Xiangguo was reprimanded by His Majesty, so he came here to visit."

Chen Shuda smiled wryly and said: "I'm old and useless, even His Majesty despises me."

Li Jing said: "I will have an audience with His Majesty tomorrow, and I will speak some words of justice to old Xiangguo."

Chen Shuda waved his hand and said, "Your Majesty's removal of this old man's official position is definitely not a rash move. Feng Deyi's age and qualifications have reached the point where he will be promoted to Prime Minister. But most importantly, the position of Shangshu Youpushe has been released , His Majesty wants to use this position to arrange for his most trusted confidant - Wei Zheng.

Li Jing said suspiciously: "No way, Wei Zheng's qualifications are too low, even if it's Wang Gui's turn, he won't be able to!"

Chen Shuda vowed: "Just keep your eyes open, the old man will definitely not make a mistake."

……

When the Tang court was in turmoil, Li Shimin also boarded the Aztec Kingdom on the Fusang Continent.Its national capital, Teotihuacan (located between the slopes of the Popocateper and Istasihuatl volcanoes in Mexico, 40 kilometers away from Mexico City), is a veritable city of the gods. There are countless palaces and temples dedicated to the sun god, moon god, the temple of the feathered serpent, and Tlaloc, the rain god.In the Aztec country Tlaloc rain god also has the power to manage the country.

However, there is no monarchy here, only theocracy.Each generation of monarchs is a new leader produced by a democratic election system similar to the ancient Chinese period, and each leader is called Tlaloc.The Aztecs were the first civilization in the Americas to enter the city-state system. As early as the first year of AD to 150 AD, the Aztecs established a city with a population of 5. After entering 600 AD, special Otihuacan entered a period of rapid development, at this time the population has reached 20 people.

Even in Datang, there are less than 20 cities with a population of more than [-].In Fusang, it is undoubtedly the largest city.

In fact, American civilizations all have one thing in common, they all like living sacrifices.Whether it is the ancestors they believe in or various gods, they all use living sacrifices. Under this traditional custom, it is very barbaric and bloody, but it has created a very bad situation. The population here cannot be large. Increase.When the harvest is good, the Aztecs will sacrifice the living to Tlaloc, and they will also sacrifice the living to Tlaloc in disasters. This kind of sacrifice is not only for prisoners of war and slaves, but also considered an automatic sacrifice. It will be loyal, Pious performance.

This trip was relatively smooth, especially with Chen Ying's canned supplies. Less than a hundred sailors died of accidents along the way, and only three large ocean-going ships sank in the storm.

After Li Shimin, Cheng Zhijie, Du Ruhui and others arrived in Fusang Continent, after half a month of restorative repairs, Zhang Zhongjian sent Li Shimin and others to scout the city of Teotihuacan.

There are only a hundred soldiers around Li Shimin, basically all of them are his old troops. He brought these more than a hundred people to investigate the giant city with a population of more than 20. Greeted all over again.

However, the reality is very helpless.Although Li Shimin was in the Tang Dynasty, he was the King of Qin, General Tiance, and Shang Shuling, but in Fusang Continent, he was definitely not Zhang Zhongjian's opponent. Chen Ying gave him equipment capable of arming [-] troops, although he only had [-] In addition, there are nearly [-] Japanese people among them.

Li Shimin has personally seen these dwarfs, whose average stature is less than six feet, they are like beasts when fighting. Even though their bodies are dripping with blood, they still attack continuously until the last bit of strength is exhausted.

People have to bow their heads under the roof.

Li Shimin had no choice but to obey Zhang Zhongjian's orders. After all, Zhang Zhongjian conquered more than a month later, occupied 25 cities, and had more than one million slaves.Their strength is not at the same level at all.

Arriving outside the city of Teotihuacan, Li Shimin unexpectedly found that this place has been reduced to a battlefield, and for some unknown reason, violent conflicts are erupting in the city.

People from the same aboriginal costumes on both sides fought together. Although there were tens of thousands of people participating in the battle, in the eyes of Li Shimin, Cheng Zhijie, Hou Mo, Chen Xu and others, their melee was not as good as the ranger fight in Chang'an City. .

After all, rangers know how to use bows, crossbows and hidden weapons to greet at long distances, and use shields to block at close range.They are fine, you stab me with a gun, and I slash you with a knife, just like that.

If you look down from the sky, the water of the small lake outside Teotihuacan has been dyed blood red, and there are countless corpses of soldiers floating on the water.

The grassland on the east coast has been mostly burned by the fire. There are broken limbs and arms everywhere, and there are piles of corpses of weapons, armor and staff they abandoned everywhere. The blood flowing down drowns the new shoots on the grassland. Diffuse above.

Not far away, there were countless wild dogs howling and looking for food in the Shura Field, and the beast's eyes were glowing blood red.A dozen or so vultures hovered high in the sky, preparing to dive to join the gluttonous feast.

Li Shimin observed for a long time, and finally made up his mind to make a crazy decision.

"Old Cheng, how about we take this city?"

Cheng Zhijie was taken aback by Li Shimin's crazy idea, he murmured: "My lord, we are only 120 three people!"

Du Ruhui smiled and said, "Old Cheng, do you know how to count? With me, it's obviously 120 four people!"

Cheng Zhijie didn't say anything. During the war, Du Ruhui was really not alone.

Li Shimin's eyes shone brightly, and he said excitedly: "This king has been observing for half an hour. They don't even have bows and arrows in their hands. Most of them use wooden spears. As long as we work hard, we will definitely catch the thief and the king!"

Du Ruhui said: "I support this decision. Although they have 20 people, they are too disorganized. They are not even as good as a vagrant army. If you take this city, your majesty can open the treasury, appease the people, and recruit the young and strong to form an army." , take this as a foundation, and operate with peace of mind, there may not be no chance of a comeback!"

Chapter 23 Never forget the rich and the noble

Chapter 23 Never forget the rich and the noble

Li Shimin has never been a person who can be subordinated to others, he has his ideals and ambitions, although Zhang Zhongjian is the king of the sea, but it is still not enough to make Li Shimin surrender to him.

At the beginning, when he was persecuted and left the Central Plains, Li Shimin really hated Chen Ying very much, because Chen Ying was too unfair. If Chen Ying and the two did not help each other, he would definitely be able to defeat Li Jiancheng and win the final victory.

However, after arriving in Fusang mainland.Li Shimin's state of mind is changing little by little. The climate here is pleasant, the rain is abundant, and the products are very rich. Even Qinchuan, which is known as the land of abundance or [-] miles rich, is simply poor and remote compared with this place.

There are sweet, crisp and delicious fruits, corn that can be produced by one plant, no less than four taels, and countless gold, silver, steel and copper. Li Shimin does not know how many times he saw the leaders of the indigenous tribes here using Make your bed with gold, and build your house with silver.

This made Li Shimin think that he would never return to the Central Plains in this life, and he slowly came back to life.The people here are hardworking and simple, but all they meet are pig-like leaders.

Now, Li Shimin somewhat understood Chen Ying's real intentions. Zhang Zhongjian would only abuse force. He could dominate for a while, but he would definitely not be able to unify the Fusang Continent.Li Shimin, on the other hand, insisted that he could do it.

Cheng Zhijie was a little hesitant, and Hou Mo and Chen Xu were also hesitant.

After all, the disparity in strength between the two sides was too great. If he had 5000 troops, not even [-], Cheng Zhijie would dare to seize the city of Teotihuacan.But now, he had to think again.

Li Shimin looked at the trilogy beside him, no longer had any scruples, and shouted at the top of his voice: "There are no cowards in the Qin Palace. Every soldier who can enter the Qin Palace is a real man, and I, Li Shimin's life and death brothers."

Cheng Zhijie and Hou Mo Chen Xu stood silently.

Li Shimin roared with his thunderous voice: "Have you forgotten the oath we made at the beginning?"

Cheng Zhijie roared: "The black military uniform is the glory of a warrior, and the unicorn robe is the symbol of a hero!"

Li Shimin roared: "The sky above the head is the sky of the Great Tang! The thick soil under the feet is the land of the Great Tang! The people behind us are the people of the Great Tang! We will swear to defend them to the death!"

All the guards of Prince Qin's Mansion shouted in unison: "Swear to the death to shake the guard!"

At this time, the battle in Teotihuacan was over, and the attacking side won the final victory. The leader of the city lord of Teotihuacan was chopped off by the indigenous leader of the attacking side and held in his hand.

The leader yelled at the people around him.

Li Shimin pointed to this tall man with his upper body bare and his chest covered with lush hair, and said, "What is he talking about?"

Although it has been more than three months since he arrived in Fusang mainland, Li Shimin still can't understand the native language here, but Du Ruhui can understand it roughly.

Du Ruhui explained: "He said, listen... from now on... the men among you are all my slaves! The women among you are all my concubines! You belong to me like cows. Resist and don't run away! Otherwise, you will be chopped into meat!"
