Datang: Valkyrie chat group

On the original dragon head, inside the majestic Daming Palace.

At this time, a man wearing a dragon robe was sitting on the dragon chair, and beside him was a woman wearing a phoenix robe.

If Tang Feng were here, if he looked carefully, he would definitely be able to recognize these two people as the middle-aged couple he met at the entrance of the alley yesterday.

In the Great Tang Dynasty, there was naturally only one person who could wear a dragon robe and sit on the dragon chair, and that was Li Shimin, the king of the Tang Dynasty who created the prosperity of the Great Tang Dynasty.

And sitting next to Li Shimin, the woman called Guanyin servant girl is the eldest grandson queen who should have passed away in ten years of Zhenguan.

In the parallel world, there will always be some places that are different from the real Tang history.

It's like Li Jing didn't have such a daughter named Li Wan in the first place, like Guanyin's maidservant should have passed away, or like, my king Li Ke should have gone to his fief this year.

Or, the crown prince Li Chengqian should have rebelled with Hou Junji during this year, trying to push his father Li Er from the throne.

At this time, Tang Wang Li Er was sitting on the dragon chair, holding a blank piece of paper in his hand, looking at it seriously, and nodding slightly from time to time.

"Laughing up to the sky and going out, I'm from Penghao." Empress Changsun who was sitting next to her whispered.

"Okay, okay, young people, should they be ambitious?" Li slapped his thigh with two palms and shouted loudly.

"When I saw him that day, I knew that this kid was definitely not something in the pond. Now when I look at this poem he wrote, it is indeed so."

Empress Changsun sat there with a gentle smile on her face.

"Your Majesty intends to cultivate him?" Looking at her husband holding the poem and prose, Empress Changsun hesitated for a moment and asked softly.

"Although he's not bad, he's just not bad, not to the point where I can cultivate it myself. Of course, having said that, this son-in-law of the Li family is a man to be made." Li Er restrained himself. With a smile, he opened his mouth and said.

"Able to write and perform martial arts, but he is a good man, but unfortunately, he is a son-in-law." Empress Changsun nodded in agreement, but at the end, she showed a look of regret.

Hearing what Empress Changsun said, Li Er also sighed.

Son-in-law.

After all, this is not a very good status. Since ancient times, who can stand on top of this court, who is the son-in-law, no, not one.

Thinking of Tang Feng's status as a son-in-law, Li Er couldn't help feeling annoyed.

"He has such a talent, why does he want to be a son-in-law for someone else? Is it true that I, Tang Dynasty, have really reached the point where I can only succeed by relying on joint connections." Speaking of this, this repetitive personality King Tang became angry for no reason.

Seeing her husband who lost his temper inexplicably again, Empress Changsun smiled helplessly.

Soon, Li Er calmed down.

He pinched his chin, lost in thought, and didn't know what he was thinking about.

But all emperors, especially those who have opened up territories and created a prosperous dynasty, have the deepest thoughts. Even the people around them find it difficult to guess his thoughts.

"A few days later, it will be the day of Chang'an Grand Competition. I want him to participate in this competition. What do you think of Guanyin Maid?" After a while, Li Er raised his head, looked at Empress Changsun, and smiled. asked.

Regarding her husband's idea, Empress Changsun didn't find it surprising.

However, what surprised her was that her husband, who was deep in thought, should have had some bizarre and whimsical ideas in his mind during this contemplation, but this time, it seemed a bit too normal.

Her intuition told her that things were not that simple. To be precise, her husband probably had other ideas for letting the son-in-law of the Li family participate in this competition.

"Since he is talented, he shouldn't be buried, but my concubine thinks that he is more suitable to be an official." Empress Changsun thought for a while, and said in a deep voice.

After reading the poems and essays written by the son-in-law of the Li family, and then seeing this poem written by him, she had a faint liking for the son-in-law of the Li family. I would rather see this talented young man go into politics.

There are too many famous generals in this Tang Dynasty, and there is no shortage of good generals in the four seas. However, the Tang Dynasty has just recovered from the war, and there is nothing left to do, and good civil servants are far from enough.

"A man, you should ride horses on the battlefield, open up territories, and become an official in politics. It's too boring." Li Er curled his lips and said with some disdain.

In the bones of Tang people, what flows is the kind of unruly blood, sealing wolves and living in Xuxu, opening up borders and expanding land, these things have already been deeply buried in the bones of every Tang person, and as the founder of the Tang Dynasty, Li Second, he is an out-and-out war madman.

Looking at the contemptuous husband, Empress Changsun became more and more helpless.

She naturally knew her husband's preference for the Tang army. Looking at the 24 ministers of Lingyan Pavilion, most of them were members of the military, and most of the dukes who were granted the title were military generals.

Even most of the civil servants among them have more or less connections with the army.

"I have decided that this competition will not only compete in martial arts, but also in horseback riding and archery. Oh, and there is also the formation of troops. How can a qualified general not know the formation of troops. "Li Er began to open his mind again.

"If he can't pass all the assessments, it means that he still needs to be tempered, then I will call him into the Jinniu Guard as a personal soldier, and let those guys train him hard." Li Eryue said more and more excitedly .

At the end, there was even a sinister smile.

Empress Changsun sat beside her, looked at her husband who had once again opened his mind, and shook her head helplessly.

Chapter 023 No Chance to Create Opportunity

In Daming Palace, when Li Er, who will soon be the King of Ten Thousand Kings, was brainstorming, Tang Feng returned to Wei Guogong's mansion.

If he knew that Li Shimin and his wife had talked about him for a long time, I don't know if he would feel flattered.

Of course, it is impossible for him to know what happened in Daming Palace.

He didn't even know that because of Hu Yuelou's incident, he suddenly became famous in Chang'an City.

But even if he knew, he would not regret it.

Pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger may be the best way to protect yourself. However, in the Tang Dynasty, especially during the Zhenguan period, if you blindly pretended to be a pig and eat a tiger, often, there would be only one result, and that would be to die for the rest of your life. No chance of getting ahead.

Since he has the ability, why hide it.

As a son-in-law, his starting point is much lower than those of the children of the aristocratic family. If he continues to keep a low profile, then he can only be the son-in-law for the rest of his life.

During the Three Kingdoms period, Zhuge Liang worked in Longzhong. In that era of backward information, normally speaking, Zhuge Liang should be unknown, but there were many sages who visited him, and Liu Bei even visited the thatched cottage to invite him to come out.

The reason is that it is no wonder that when Zhuge Liang was working in Longzhong, he was not just blindly reclusive. He was still showing his talent, packaging himself, and promoting himself through various channels.

Successful self-packaging, coupled with ingenious self-promotion, has just given Liu Bei's three visits to thatched cottage.

He, Tang Feng, dare not compare himself to Zhuge Kongming, but he is also using the same method to create momentum for himself, to let everyone know that he, the son-in-law of the Li family, is not just a lucky countryman.

Passively waiting for the opportunity to come, that's not how Tang Feng is.

Even if there is no opportunity, he must create opportunities for himself.

Returning to Duke Wei's mansion again, Tang Feng clearly felt that the way the servants in the mansion looked at him and their attitude towards him were obviously different.

Ever since he came to the Duke's Mansion, the stewards in the mansion had ignored him, but now, when they saw him, their words showed a little more respect.

Not to mention those maids, when they saw themselves, there was clearly a warm brilliance in their eyes.

North courtyard.

"Grandpa, uncle is back." The old butler walked in quickly and said to Li Jing.

Li Jing and his wife looked at each other.

"Why don't we come over to him and ask him?" Li Jing asked in a low voice, looking at the red girl sitting next to him.

Red Fu Nu was silent for a moment, then shook her head.

"Let's see and talk." After a moment of silence, Hong Fu Nu said leisurely.

"Old Zhang, go to the study room, find some books, and send them to my uncle, and also send two sets of the four treasures of the study in the mansion." Li Jing nodded, looked at the old housekeeper again and ordered.

"Yes, my lord." The housekeeper replied and left the room.

In the big room, only Li Jing and his wife were left.

"I thought that he would be like those rural folks in the countryside without anyone to teach him, but I didn't expect that he not only has good martial arts skills, but also has a lot of poetry and books, and his attainments in poetry, prose and calligraphy are extraordinary." Li Jing said with a wry smile.

The red girl sitting next to her looked at her husband with some displeasure.

"Why is my husband bothered? Do you think that he is talented, and that he has been wronged by joining our Duke of Wei's mansion? Or do you feel sorry for Brother Tang?" Hong Fu said with a straight face.

Hearing his wife's questioning, Li Jing's heart became more and more bitter. His troubles at this time were precisely because of these two things.

If it is said that Tang Feng has no ability to join his family, he would be happy to see it succeed, because it can not only continue the incense of their Li family, but also repay the kindness of the past, so as not to let Brother Tang's son live in exile. In the countryside is a villager.

But now, my nephew is capable of both civil and military skills, and recruiting him into the mansion as my son-in-law somewhat delayed his future and wasted his talent.

Now he feels a little regretful. When he saw Tang Feng, why didn't he ask clearly? If he knew that Tang Feng was both civil and military, he would definitely not let Tang Feng be his son-in-law. With one or two supports to Tang Feng, Tang Feng will be able to achieve something.

How did Li Jing know that when he first met Tang Feng, Tang Feng also had some cultural background, but it was far less dazzling than what he is showing now, and Tang Feng knew nothing about martial arts.

In fact, his troubles are simply superfluous.

"My Wan'er is also talented in both civil and martial arts, and she is even more graceful. She is an impeccably good woman in Chang'an City. Could it be that you really have the heart to watch her marry a country man? "Hong Fu Nu said.

Li Jing opened his mouth to say something, but when the words reached his lips, he swallowed them back.

"If Tang Feng is incompetent, even if he marries Wan'er, I'm afraid it will only be in name only. In the end, he will be delayed, and Wan'er will be delayed. But now, everything has turned for the better." At that moment, a rare smile appeared on Hong Fu Nu's face.

"He Tang Feng is capable of writing and martial arts, and Wan'er won't have any resistance to him. As long as the two of them have been together for a long time, if you think about it, you can have a long-term relationship."

Li Jing sat there, listening to his wife's words, fell silent again.

Finally, he sighed deeply.

"I have to feel sorry for him."

Chapter 024: Xiang Yu's Change

The night is getting darker.

It was still in the room filled with joy, it was still like yesterday, Li Wan slept in the inner wing, Tang Feng slept in the outer wing, the two sides did not interfere with each other.

For Li Wan, this was a tragic marriage, and she was the victim of her father to repay the kindness of the year.

As for Tang Feng, this is also a helpless marriage, a compromise he made in order to skyrocket.

Perhaps, his nominal wife is as beautiful as a flower, which is enough to make most men's hearts flutter, but since the other party cannot accept him, then he will not lick his face and kneel down to beg the other party.

Lying in this dimly lit outer compartment, Tang Feng soon lost his mind.

Going into the Valkyrie chat group, the chat inside is still very lively.

As the most active person in the group, Xiang Yu was bragging again in the group.

"I'll tell you, today, with tens of thousands of infantry alone, I defeated the local army of [-]. When those Qin soldiers saw me, they wanted to see ghosts and gods. They were so scared that they peed on the spot."

Looking at the group message sent by Xiang Yu, Tang Feng knew that this was the start of the Battle of Julu.

According to normal history, Liu Bang should be the first to destroy Xianyang City. Moreover, it was after the Battle of Julu that Liu Bang took advantage of the emptiness of Xianyang to attack Xianyang City.

But now, suddenly, Xiang Yu broke Xianyang City first, and it was still before the Battle of Julu started.

It seems that, from a certain moment in the history of the end of Qin Dynasty, subtle changes have also taken place, and it has embarked on a completely different path.

"Thanks to No. [-]'s advice, if it wasn't for No. [-]'s advice, this battle would not have been so easy." Xiang Yu said again.

Seeing this message from Xiang Yu again, Tang Feng froze for a moment.

Number two, of course, refers to Sun Bin.

Suddenly, he realized something that he had never thought of before.

As the group leader, he can not only get various benefits from the Martial God chat group, but at the same time, the members in the group can also help each other and learn from each other.

Maybe there are many counselors around Xiang Yu, but as a king, he may not listen to some reasonable suggestions from his subordinates.

But in this Valkyrie chat group, it's completely different.

Everyone is equal. Except for him, the group leader, everyone is on the same height, and they are called brothers. It is precisely because of this equal mentality that they can value each other. suggestion.

Just like this time, Sun Bin gave advice to Xiang Yu, and Xiang Yu adopted them all, and then successfully defeated the frontal Qin army.

Military God plus Valkyrie, this combination, think about it, the picture should not be too beautiful.

Subtle changes have taken place in the history of the end of Qin Dynasty, but the later Tang Dynasty, the era he lived in, has not changed at all. This is another very important message.

In other words, the change of the time and space where Xiang Yu is located will not affect other time and space.

Perhaps, the time and space they live in is not connected at all, but independent space worlds similar to parallel spaces.

If this guess is correct, then even if Xiang Yu wins the Chu-Han hegemony and establishes the Great Chu Dynasty, it will not affect other people in the group.

Thinking of this, his eyes brightened.

"No. [-], let me give you a suggestion, treat the captured enemies well, absorb fresh blood from them, and strengthen your own strength, especially those talented advisers among them, you must treat them kindly." After pondering for a moment, he said to Xiang Yu.

"Although there is an enmity between you and Qin State to destroy the country, you have to think about it in the long run, and don't lose your long-term future just to vent your personal anger."

Historically, after the Battle of Julu, Han Zhang led hundreds of thousands of Qin troops to surrender. However, Xiang Yu ignored the opposition of his advisers and killed hundreds of thousands of Qin troops who had surrendered for his own personal grievances.

Under the chain reaction, since then, no Qin army has dared to surrender to him. Instead, Liu Bang has won a large number of Qin army's attachments because of his kind treatment of Qin army's captives.

"That's right, don't care about the gains and losses of a city or a place, and don't be controlled by hatred. You should think about it in the long run." Sun Bin echoed.
