He returned to Chang'an a few days ago. At this time, he frowned deeply and sighed: "There are still strong enemies around, and with the Turks, the situation is really dangerous."

"If General Liu goes there again, how about Xu Yizhongli taking a break?" someone said.

"It's easy for you to say!" Liu Wenjing frowned slightly, sneered, and said, "Not to mention how much work it will take to form an alliance again, just bend your knees and do it once!"

It is obvious that he suffered a lot of humiliation when negotiating with East Turks.It's just that it's okay for Liu Wenjing to say this in private, but it's a bit too much to blurt out in front of Li Yuan in this meeting place at this moment.Liu Wenjing also realized that something was wrong when he said something, but he had a strong temper and didn't know how to smooth things over, so he shut his mouth tightly and didn't say anything.

Li Yuan didn't look very unhappy, he just half closed his eyes, stroked his beard, and said nothing.

In the silence for a while, Pei Ji suddenly laughed and put Liu Wenjing on Liu Wenjing's shoulder, and said nonchalantly, "Hey, one day when General Liu conquers the northern border, how about asking that Shibi Khan to spit out all the gold he ate? "

These words are neither fish nor fowl, and are ridiculous. The few young people sitting at the end couldn't hold back and laughed out loud. Fang Xuanling, who has wide sleeves and comfortable robes, has the most leisurely demeanor among the generals and staff. At this time, he smiled slightly and said : "There will be no need for generals to deal with trivial things like this in the future, not to mention dealing with Turks. You can't keep them with meat. For the present, the only way is to get rid of them."

What he said was gentle and casual, but very decisive. Most of the audience had the same thought, and they all agreed after hearing the words. Because of Pei Ji's gag and Fang Xuanling's taking up the topic, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and began to discuss solemnly. Starting from dealing with the Turks, there is also the deployment of future wars.

General Wen Dayou said: "Although the Turks must be eliminated, at this time the parties are divided and they still need to be careful all the time. Therefore, the Turks should focus on defense and send troops to the north to garrison."

Li Jiancheng seldom speaks. He knows that the chaos caused by the Xiongnu cannot be resolved in a short time. Even if the Tang Dynasty pacifies the Quartet in the future, it will not be able to suppress the Xiongnu cavalry, let alone now, and in the future, the northern line will be his The place where I have been for many years...

He was thinking to himself, carefully considering all the details of the future war, but suddenly remembered that Li Shimin's eldest son, Chengqian, would be born next year.

It was almost the first month at this time, and if his memory was correct, Cheng Qian would come to this world in June next year. Thinking of this, Li Jiancheng slightly turned his head and looked at Li Shimin who was sitting beside him.

Li Jiancheng's gaze collided with Li Shimin's in the next moment, as if he was proud or playing, Li Shimin's sharp lips raised slightly, and his hand quietly entered Li Jiancheng's sleeve a few times, and held it Li Jiancheng.

He was smartly dressed and his cuffs were tightly tied, so he didn't move much. With Li Jiancheng's crane cloak draped on the ground, no one noticed.

Li Jiancheng's expression was normal, and he let him hold his palm and play with it, as if he didn't feel anything.Li Shimin frowned, he was dissatisfied with Li Jiancheng's lack of response, but Li Yuan saw it, and smiled, "Does Erlang have anything to say?"

Li Shimin was stunned for a moment, taking advantage of his stupefied moment, Li Jiancheng pulled out his wet hand, and gathered the skirt of his clothes calmly.

Li Shimin coughed a few times, and said: "General Wen and the others are guarding the northern border, Shimin is relieved, but Yuan Ji's experience is still inexperienced, why don't you take this opportunity to train with the old general?"

Since Li Yuanji annoyed a general by interjecting in the middle of the last round, and asked his eldest brother to apologize on his behalf, he has rarely spoken on such occasions. Now, after listening to Li Shimin's words, he also knows that he deliberately wants to keep himself away from his eldest brother. He turned his eyes and gave Li Shimin a vicious look, but when Li Yuan looked over, he lowered his head respectfully and said, "Yuanji is willing to go!"

Regardless of Li Shimin's small thoughts, following Wen Dayou's battle, it must be an experience, and Li Yuanji will not let go of the opportunity to make himself stronger.

Li Yuan looked at this young and brave son, hesitated for a while, and said: "It's all right, I haven't read a few of Shiro's military books, I'm afraid I will trouble General Wen after I pass, let's talk about it later."

Everyone discussed for a while, and it was reported that Li Mi in Wagang Village had killed Zhai Rang. Pei Ji clapped the case and applauded, laughing and said: "Then Li Mi was originally a person, but he also felt that he was a person, so he didn't want to live under Zhai Rang." , so, the Wagang Army is bound to be unstable internally, if there are foreign enemies attacking at this time, I am afraid that Li Mi will not be able to succeed!"

After the discussion, it was decided that General Wen and General Yin would lead their troops northward to defend against the Turks, while the Quartet Separatist regimes would temporarily hold back their troops. After the first month, the soldiers had enough energy before making plans.

The meeting ended, Li Jiancheng saw that Li Shimin was looking for him, but was dragged away by Changsun Wuji, he heaved a sigh of relief, he was really afraid that he would pester him, seeing Wei Ting walking slowly, he chased after him and said: "Ziwen, let's walk together."

Wei Ting had just arrived, and he was drawn to participate in such a discussion. He was rather cautious, so he shyly said, "Your Majesty is here."

"Why do you need to be polite?" Li Jiancheng laughed, he knew that Wei Ting was not used to changes, and he was even a bit obtuse like a scholar.At this time, he thought about taking him around and learning about other matters.

How could Wei Ting not know his kindness, so he blushed slightly and responded.

The two walked for a while, but they hadn't chatted a few words when they heard the faint sound of arguing at the corner in front.

Wei Ting stopped in his tracks, hesitantly said: "Your Majesty, why don't we go another way."

Li Jiancheng knew that it was Pei Ji and Liu Wenjing from the sound. He smiled and said in a low voice, "Hush, keep your voice down, these two have always been like this, and you will get used to it in the future." After saying that, he stood there without moving. Yes, with a slight smile on the corner of his lips.

The eldest son of Mr. Tang that Wei Ting knew in his memory had always been respectful and respectful, and he was restrained in his advances and retreats. Whenever he saw him with such a cunning look, he became curious and stood aside and listened silently. .

Pei Ji and General Liu Wenjing over there didn't know that the dignified prince of the Tang Dynasty and the newly promoted Longxi Duke's Jijiu would listen to their corners, trying to suppress their voices, and making a lot of noise.

"Zhaoren, you know that I'm doing it for your own good, why are you so ignorant of my persuasion?!" Pei Ji frowned tightly, his voice full of helplessness.

"I won't be able to do it if I have a heart? Why do you go to the magistrate to say good things to me? How much credit do I, Liu Wenjing, still need you to speak for me!?" Liu Wenjing said bitterly.

"Zhaoren!" Pei Ji was seldom angry, "It's Tang Wang! You have to understand your identity, today is a slip of the tongue, if Tang Wang is dissatisfied with you, you will have a hard time in the future!"

"No need, no need! It's you, don't put on such an annoying look!" Liu Wenjing didn't appreciate it.

Pei Ji let out a "ha" laugh, but it wasn't his usual libertine smile, "Tell me, when will you stop being cold-eyed to me?"

Liu Wenjing was taken aback for a moment, and fell silent for a rare moment.

Afterwards, the two seemed to have said something again, but their voices were much lower than before, and Li Jiancheng and Wei Ting could not hear clearly. Li Jiancheng shook his head regretfully, and smiled at Wei Ting: "Let's go."

With a bit of worry on his face, Wei Ting followed Li Jiancheng and said, "The relationship between General Liu and Pei Shangshu... is not good?"

Li Jiancheng smiled lightly, turned his face halfway, and said in a leisurely manner, "How could that be?"

He was thinking about the war in his heart, but he forgot that one person would be executed together with his brother in the next year. This moment of negligence prevented him from noticing the unusual tension in the words of those two people just now.

The author has something to say: It’s not my fault that the update is slow or something, I’ve always been diligent, so please go and scold Ningning, in fact, I also want to write fast, really, really! ! !

Recuperate

Although the first month of this year was somewhat bleak due to the recent war, under Li Yuan's attention, the city of Chang'an was still full of jubilation. In addition, his eldest grandson Wugou was pregnant, and Li Yuan, who was about to become a grandfather, felt even more relaxed , but occasionally chanted a few words in front of the eldest son, it was nothing more than being nearly [-] years old and had no children, Li Jiancheng always laughed it off.

He remembered that the eldest son, Li Chengzong, died early during the chaos of the war, and the remaining sons... presumably after the Xuanwumen change, there was no good end, and the other two daughters were probably married hastily by Li Shimin.He curled the corners of his lips, and his smile was a bit cold, this time he has no children so far, and he doesn't know if it's because he still can't get over it in his heart, or because of other reasons, maybe it's God's will.

On the case table, the tea next to the document was completely cold, and the tea was brought from the palace. The Li family was not used to drinking tea, but Li Jiancheng loved its slightly bitter and sweet tea, which refreshed the mind, so he brought it from time to time. drink.

Although the brazier was burning in the room, the windows were open, and the awe-inspiring cold air of winter rushed into the room, diluting the smell of incense in the smoked balls.

Li Jiancheng's face was slightly pale. He couldn't sleep well last night, probably because he didn't know that the family accidentally placed the lamp tree, and it fell down, causing a small fire. He didn't need to take care of it, but what happened The Li family has just entered Chang'an, and some things must be done by themselves.After a lot of tossing, the fire was extinguished, and more than a dozen affected families were compensated. It was almost ugly, and I squinted my eyes on the couch to rest for a while, and then I had to discuss matters. Some of his documents are probably the movements of various forces.

The door was gently pushed open, and Qi Luo came in holding the tray, took down the cold tea lightly and silently, and made new tea.

Li Jiancheng rubbed his brows and said, "Why are you? It's so cold, you'd better stay in the room, let the maid do these trivial matters."
