One of the three men, who was a little older than him, nodded slowly at him, while a woman who looked younger than him gave him a playful wink.The other person was a middle-aged man dressed as a scribe.

However, the Second Young Master didn't care about this, and saluted the figure with his back turned: "Shimin has seen my father."

The figure with its back to the young man turned around slowly, revealing a weather-beaten face.

This young man is none other than Li Shimin, the future Tang Taizong and Tian Khan.And this place is the foothold of the Longxi Li family in Chang'an. This time, for some reason, the Longxi Li family suddenly sent most of the backbone of the family to Chang'an City.

The figure with his back to Li Shimin is Li Yuan, the current patriarch of the Li family in Longxi, and the young man and woman are Li Yuan's eldest son, Li Jiancheng, and his third daughter, Li Xiuning; The one is Li Guang, another backbone of the Li clan.That is Li Guang who was born.

Li Yuan looked at Li Shimin and said, "Do you know what kind of crime you did?"

Li Shimin said: "My child knows."

"Knowing that you still do it? Are you not afraid of death?"

Li Shimin raised his head to look at Li Yuan at this time, and said: "My boy is afraid of death, but if this matter succeeds, it will be of great benefit to my family Li. Compared with it, my boy's life is nothing."

Li Yuan sneered and said, "Then tell me, what benefits does this matter have for me, Li Shi?"

Li Shimin said at this time: "I believe that everyone inside and outside the court knows that Cai Shizhong's crime is not fatal, it's just that Cai Shizhong wants to die. And it's not just the baby who wants to save Cai Shizhong, otherwise the baby's action this time will not be so smooth."

Li Yuandao: "Then tell me, what benefits does saving Cai Yong bring to my Li family? I'm afraid we have already been hated by Master Wang."

Li Shimin continued: "No, father was too worried. Although it was Wang Situ who arrested Cai Shizhong and put him in prison, Wang Situ actually couldn't bear to let Cai Shizhong die in prison like this. He just rescued him because of the embarrassment of the Han family." Now that the boy has rescued Cai Shizhong, although Wang Situ may be a little displeased, he will only be happy to see the result."

Li Shimin slowed down and continued: "As for the benefits to my Li family, father, Cai Shizhong has peaches and plums all over the world, has countless disciples, and is quite famous among scholars. If Cai Shizhong is in our hands, then why worry about the world's scholars not getting in?" I am a member of the Li family. At that time, it will be the time for my Li family to revive the lintel."

Li Yuan asked again: "Then how do you ensure that Cai Yong can contribute to my Li family? I understand. You have a good plan. But you acted without authorization, and punishment is still necessary. You go back and lock yourself up for seven days. Don't go out during the day."

After listening to Li Yuan's words, Li Shimin retreated slowly.Li Jiancheng and Li Xiuning also followed Li Shimin out of the study, leaving only Li Yuan, Li Shanchang, and Li Guang in the study.

Seeing that Li Jiancheng and the others had already left, Li Shanchang said: "Then Cai Yong made a good idea, entrusting his daughter to Hedong Wei's family, but he can get a good reputation."

Li Yuan smiled and said: "Unfortunately, he didn't realize that Wei Zhongdao was dead, otherwise, even if Cai Yong was rescued by us, he probably wouldn't be able to help us."

Li Shanchang said: "But with Cai Yong in hand, we can get a lot of benefits."

Li Yuan snorted: "Otherwise, how could I let Shimin save Cai Yong?"

While Li Yuan was discussing with Li Shanchang and Li Guang, Li Shimin had already returned to his yard. Although Li Xiuning had been asking what Li Shimin had done on the way back, Li Shimin didn't reveal anything. It was Li Jiancheng who found out what Li Shimin was doing, and took Li Xiuning away.

In Li Yuan's study at that time, Li Xiuning couldn't hear what Li Shimin and others were saying at all, but felt that it had something to do with Cai Yong who cried for Dong Zhuo in front of Wang Yun not long ago.

But when Li Shimin returned to his room, he didn't fall asleep, but entered another house. In that house, there was only a middle-aged scribe in it, and the scribe's eyes were struggling.

At this moment, Li Shimin came to the side of the scribe, and said, "I don't know how Mr. Wen is thinking? You are willing to work for me."

This middle-aged scribe was none other than Dong Zhuo's number one counselor, Li Ru. After Dong Zhuo's death, Li Ru was tied up by his servants and dragged to the street, where he was killed by the people of Chang'an. He just came back from the dead and appeared here for some reason.

Li Ru stared at Li Shimin with a pair of deep eyes, and asked, "What qualifications do you have for me to work for you?"

However, Li Shimin didn't take it seriously, and said to himself: "Now that Dong Zhuo is dead, with your identity as Li Wenyou, I am afraid that you will not end well if you fall into the hands of that prince, so you came up with the trick of feigning death." , as long as Li Wenyou is dead, then who will care about you? But it is a pity that you will meet me when you leave Chang'an, and what is even more unfortunate is that I will know you."

Li Ru lowered his head at this time, but he met Li Shimin after he escaped from Chang'an City. What was even more unfortunate was that Li Ru was alone at that time, and he was not Li Shimin's opponent at all.Li Shimin originally wanted to use words to attract Li Ru, but he saw the firmness in Li Ru's eyes, but Li Shimin was unwilling to give up such a great talent as Li Ru, so Li Shimin took action to catch Li Ru, and then even Li Ru took him back to his residence.

And Li Shimin did all these things with only one purpose, that is to subdue Li Ru.

At this time Li Rudao: "Young Emperor was killed by my own hands, you Li Shimin dare to use me, aren't you afraid of being spurned by the world?"

At this time, Li Shimin was staring at Li Rudao: "Li Ru, he is dead."

Li Ru was taken aback, then laughed and said: "Yes, yes, I appreciate you very much, but it's not enough to make me work for you just because of this. But I can promise you to work for you temporarily, as a condition, you can't restrain me After one year, I will decide whether to work for you."

Li Shimin showed a gentle smile, and said, "It's very good, Shimin believes that Wen Xiansheng will stay with Shimin in a year's time."

Li Ru sneered: "You are very confident, but you don't know if you have the ability."

Li Shimin said with a smile: "If Shimin is not confident, how can he get the support of Wen Xiansheng."

Li Ru snorted coldly, and then stopped talking to Li Shimin, but muttered to himself: "Li Ru is dead, from today onwards, I will be called Li Zhuo, named Boying."

"Then Shimin congratulates Mr. Boying."

Hearing Li Shimin's words, Li Zhuo sneered: "Be careful recently, the peace in Chang'an City won't last long."

However, Li Shimin did not understand the meaning of Li Zhuo's words.

"Master Wang had a good idea, but unfortunately he underestimated the Xiliang army. He thought he could deal with the Xiliang army with Lu Bu? Hmph, it was a big mistake. Just relying on Lu Bu, he wanted to deal with the Xiliang army. , I can only say that Wang Yun is delusional."

Chapter 164 The Uneasiness of the Xiliang Army

Because of Dong Zhuo's death, Lu Buyou got mixed up with Wang Yun and others.The generals of the Xiliang Army under Dong Zhuo left Chang'an and returned to Xiliang with their soldiers and horses.

Among the generals of the Xiliang Army, Li Jue, Guo Si, Zhang Ji, and Fan Chou were the most powerful and had the most troops under their command.Moreover, the Flying Bear Army composed of the most elite soldiers of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry was also led by Li Jue and Guo Si.

After fleeing to Xiliang, Li Jue, Guo Si, Zhang Ji, and Fan Chou gathered together to discuss the next thing. After all, Dong Zhuo was dead. There is no such consciousness to die with Dong Zhuo.

To be precise, they did not intend to die with the current Dong Zhuo. If it was the Dong Zhuo who was so wise and mighty in their eyes, perhaps the four of them would really have the possibility to die with Dong Zhuo under Dong Zhuo's charm.

It's a pity that after Dong Zhuo was dazzled by the prosperity of Luoyang and Chang'an and intoxicated by the luxury, he had already lost the allegiance of his soldiers to him.

After the four discussed, they decided to unite and submit a request to be forgiven by the emperor.

When the four people jointly asked for forgiveness, the emperor Liu Xie didn't know what to do for a while.After all, the current Liu Xie is only an eleven or twelve-year-old child. Although children in ancient times were generally precocious, Liu Xie had been controlled by Dong Zhuo before, and there was no learning.

Therefore, when encountering such a major event, all Liu Xie can do is to seek help from those ministers who in his eyes are loyal to the Han Dynasty and are also very capable.And Wang Yun is exactly such a person in Liu Xie's eyes.

In Liu Xie's eyes, Wang Yun was not only loyal to the big man, but designed to kill the big devil Dong Zhuo who had been controlling him before, and also subdued Lu Bu, the world's number one general under Dong Zhuo's command.More importantly, Wang Yun is very capable. After Dong Zhuo's death, Wang Yun came to preside over the government and maintain the operation of the court.After such a period of time, Wang Yun arranged everything in an orderly manner, and handled everything properly, and the handling was justified.

So now Liu Xie has a lot of trust in Wang Yunna, and this is a difficult matter in Liu Xie's own opinion, maybe it will be handled well in Wang Yun's hands.

With this in mind, Liu Xie turned his attention to Wang Yun.

At this time, Wang Yun also understood what Li Jue and the others were thinking. Seeing that the emperor had turned his gaze to him, Wang Yun stood up and said, "Your Majesty, the reason why Dong Zhuo is so arrogant and domineering is all due to Li Jue, Guo Si, Zhang Ji and Fan Chou helped each other. Moreover, these four people were not good people. Then Li Jue and Guo Si burned, killed and looted outside the city of Chang'an more than once, committing all kinds of crimes. Although His Majesty is amnesty to the world, only this The crimes of the four are too great to be pardoned."

Wang Yun's words were resolute and resounding.

Liu Xie heard Wang Yun's words, although he didn't understand what Wang Yun said, but Wang Yun's meaning was obvious. Li Jue, Guo Si, Zhang Ji, and Fan Chou were all wicked people and could not be pardoned.

Wang Yun was the one who rescued himself from the big demon king Dong Zhuo. He said that these four people are villains, so these four people must be villains, because Wang Yun is a loyal minister, and it is impossible to lie to himself.

So Liu Xie nodded ignorantly, as if he recognized what Wang Yun said.

However, it is not Wang Yun's words above the court, and Wang Yun will not do that, because if he does that, then what is the difference between Wang Yun and Dong Zhuo?

Immediately, one person retorted Wang Yun: "Wang Situ, Li Jue and the others still have nearly [-] Xiliang soldiers in their hands. If Li Jue and the others are cornered, they will lead the [-] Xiliang soldiers to kill What should Changan do?"

As soon as Liu Xie heard the word Xiliangbing, some not-so-good memories came to mind, and his small face suddenly turned pale, without any blood at all.The wolf-like figure of Xiliang soldiers lingered in Liu Xie's mind like a nightmare, stimulating Liu Xie's weak heart.
