I write a eulogy every day for the person beside my pillow

Li Li went to the border and stayed there for three years.

At the beginning of his tenure, Li Li worried that he was Zhao Kuo talking on paper. After a few small-scale victories, he finally let go of this doubt.

There were winners and losers in the battle with Rongdi. Although the enemy was not driven out of the pass, the group of burning, killing and looting guys did not dare to attack easily.

Li Li believed that as long as he was given ten years, he would be able to build the border into an iron wall.

While Li Li was busy training his soldiers, the court experienced turbulent changes.

Emperor Heng recovered from his serious illness, and all the power of the government was taken back from the hands of Prince Li Yu.

Although the old emperor praised Li Yu's achievements in supervising the country, he didn't show much love and affection. Instead, he summoned his sixth son, King Rui, into the palace several times to ask about his recent homework.

It's no wonder that when Emperor Heng was seriously ill, King Rui always knelt in front of the bed to serve him. He was not afraid of being dirty or tired, as can be seen from the news from the palace people.

It is said that once, when Emperor Heng was lying in bed, his throat was stuck with a mouthful of phlegm, and he coughed violently. I picked up the sputum with my hand directly, without feeling dirty at all.

But at this time, Li Yu was busy with state affairs and neglected to care about Emperor Heng.

In the early courts several times in succession, the prince and King Rui disagreed in their political views and quarreled, but Emperor Heng only insulted Li Yu and praised King Rui endlessly.

Later, rumors leaked from the harem, it is said that Emperor Heng often scolded the prince for his badness in front of his concubine, praised King Rui for his goodness, and had a great idea of ​​easy storage.

It's fine if it's other princes, with the power of the princelings, it's enough to pull him down.

However, King Rui's mother's family is the famous Liu family in Beijing, so they can't be moved easily.

As a result, more and more scumbags took refuge in King Rui's forces, and Li Yu's position as the crown prince was in jeopardy.

At this time, Li Yu urgently needs a great contribution to stabilize his position.

Grand Tutor Huang Zhengqian spent a month of research and suggested that the prince should go to the border to wipe out the soldiers and achieve fame.

There is no other reason. Li Li has won several battles in recent months. Rong Di lost his armor and was frightened by the news.

Seeing that Li Li's victory was in sight, the crown prince took his place at this time. When the border is stabilized in the future, it will be all due to the crown prince.

Li Yu speculated that this was indeed the best way to fight back against King Rui at the moment, so he agreed, asked for an imperial edict from Emperor Heng, and rushed to the border with his cronies Huang Zhengqian and Yue Qingbai.

When the crown prince went in person, Li Li naturally handed over the tiger talisman and was willing to be the deputy general.

The prince's combat style is completely opposite to that of Li Li. Li Li pays attention to adapting to changes, while the prince pays attention to the style of ancient battlefields.

When the two armies are fighting, they must set up a battle post, and after the two sides agree, they will agree on the time and place for the war.

When he first heard it, Li Li felt like he had heard a joke and stood there stupidly.

But Huang Zhengqian said sternly beside Li Yu: "Our Lan Dynasty is a state of etiquette. If we engage in such actions as sneak attacks from behind, how will it be different from those Rongdi who don't know etiquette and shame!"

After speaking, Huang Zhengqian glanced at Li Li, and the contempt in his eyes was hard to hide.

Li Li has experienced this kind of look since he was a child, and it has long been invulnerable to all poisons. He just feels helpless.

As a general, he must protect the lives of the soldiers, and use all means to make a big difference. He has been doing this for the past two years, and it has indeed dealt a big blow to Rong Di.

But now, his Tiger Talisman has already been handed over, and the decision-making power is in Li Yu's hands.

Li Yu finally adopted Huang Zhengqian's opinion.

Huang Zhengqian hurriedly wrote a war post.

"Brother, please take back the military order, this plan is absolutely impossible!" Li Li begged his brother.

The crown prince just took Li Li's hand, patted it comfortingly, and smiled gently and kindly: "Little Fourteen, I know that you are right, but Taifu Huang is such a stubborn person, don't be as knowledgeable as him." .”

"Brother Huang, this is not a private grievance between me and Mr. Huang, but it concerns the lives of tens of thousands of soldiers, so it's not child's play."

"Hey," Li Yu showed a hint of displeasure, like a peacemaker caught between Li Li and Huang Zhengqian, "Then this time, first do what Huang Taifu said, and if it doesn't work, then do what you said. Will it work?"

After finishing speaking, Li Yu also walked out of the big tent, shook his head and sighed, "What an ignorant child."

The next time, there will never be a next time to listen to Li Li's opinion.

On the night when Huang Zhengqian posted the belligerent post, Rong Di sent a small team to sneak into a nearby Lan army barracks, while the soldiers were asleep, cut off their heads and tied them on the waistband of their trousers to go back to receive the reward, and then set fire to the food and grass. .

When Huang Zhengqian heard about this, he rushed from the camp bed to the prince's camp barefoot, scolded the Rongdi for their shamelessness, wrote an eloquent proclamation, and sent people to post it all over the city.

Huang Zhengqian's article was well-received, and everyone knew that Huang Taifu of the imperial court scolded the leader of Narong and Di as a pig and a dog.

A few days after the call to action was posted, Rongdi robbed a small town.

The leader of the team sat on the horse, indifferent to the fresh corpses all over the ground, raised a knife and lifted off a notice posted on the earth wall, grabbed a teacher in the town, and asked him to explain the whole text What are the sour poems talking about.

The teacher said tremblingly: "Yes, it means that if you have to be slaughtered, you will not die."

"If you can't die well, you can't write well. You Lanchao people are really ink marks." When the words fell, the man killed the teacher with a knife.

Hearing the report from his subordinates, Xu Tu, the leader of Rong Di, personally led people to sack a town, and Li Li rushed there at night, with only a small group of troops, without disturbing anyone.

Xutu's men and horses are bound to stay for a few days for rectification. Li Li has a premonition that this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

The team he brought was an army organized by Hu people.Their appearance is similar to that of Rongdi, but they come from a different tribe from Xutu. These tribes were all slaughtered by Xutu, and those who survived were homeless. For the past two years, Li Lixin has stayed in the military camp, and now it is time to use force. land.

Li Li sneaked into the town with these people, changed into the clothes of Rongdi soldiers who died along the road, and lurked under Xutu's nose.

There were mobile soldiers hovering around Xutu, and Li Li waited patiently, there were always times when no one was around.

Finally, after waiting for two days, a Han came.

Xu Tu swung back to the left and right, and met the Han man alone.

Li Li hid in a haystack not far away, and there was a barbarian cronies beside him.

The Han man dressed as a scribe spoke to Xu Tu in Rong Di language, but Li Li couldn't understand, so he asked the Hu people around him to translate.

The confidant whispered to him: "The distance is far away, and the mouth shape cannot be seen clearly. It seems that Xu Tu is asking him the whereabouts of a certain person. That person is very important to him, and he must find this person."

"What did the scribe say?"

"The scribe said that every October, this person would go to the barbarian tribe outside the pass to pay homage to his dead mother, and no one would be allowed to follow him. The scribe also presented a piece of silk to Xutu, like a map or something."

Li Li thought to himself, Xu Tu valued this person so much, presumably this person meant a lot to Xu Tu, but he didn't know whether he was an enemy or a friend.

At this moment, the lieutenant beside Xutu shouted and ran over, and Xutu's face changed drastically after hearing his words.

The confidant yelled: "General, run, our secret has been leaked!"

Li Li jumped up from the haystack, picked up his saber and slashed at Xutu.

Xutu's lieutenant blocked the knife, Li Li missed Xutu, but chopped off his lieutenant's head.

Li Li had already given up his life and death, and now his face was covered with blood like a demon, Xu Tu had just lost a fierce general, and when he saw this terrifying face again, he forgot that his own army was several times that of Li Li's, so he immediately mounted his horse , ran in a panic.

Li Li raised the head of the lieutenant general, grabbed a piece of dirty cloth and wrapped it on his back, and shouted "Retreat!"

The confidant circled his lips with his index finger and thumb, and hurriedly blew the secret whistle for retreat, while retreating, he hacked and killed the Rongdi soldiers who were in the way.

They ran in the yellow wind, and the yellow wind buried their footprints. They detoured for a day and a night, and finally arrived at a small town near Lan Chao's tent.

Bulletins were posted in the small town, arresting Li Li and the gang of barbarian soldiers who accompanied him.

It turned out that it was Huang Zhengqian who found out that Li Li led his troops out of the camp without obtaining the military order. He scolded him for committing crimes and dereliction of duty.

Only then did the deeds come to light.

Huang Zhengqian had always looked down on Li Li's group of barbarian soldiers, but he didn't dare to act because of Li Li's presence.

This time Li Li was caught, Huang Zhengqian would definitely not spare these barbarian soldiers.

"Brothers, here is my farewell to Li Li. The proprietress of this restaurant is my informant. Whether you want to go back to your hometown to herd cattle or go to Jiangnan to do business, she will make proper arrangements for you."

"General, what do you do then?"

"Go back and accept the crime."

"This subordinate is willing to accompany the general."

"I'm the prince, nothing will happen, don't worry."

Knowing that Li Li was returning to the camp, Li Yu hurried out of the tent to greet him.

"Little Fourteen, are you okay, I'm so worried."

Li Li was comforted, and all the grievances in his belly were gone.

"Brother Huang, Li Li has not been killed enough to be slaughtered, so I ask Brother Huang to surrender."

"You are innocent, you are innocent." Li Yu comforted him.

Following Li Yu was Yue Qingbai, and Li Li obediently called out, "Teacher."

Yue Qingbai stroked his beard, wanted to scold but didn't want to scold, held back for a long time, and said, "Just come back."

"His Royal Highness! The fourteenth prince left the camp without permission, and treated the prince's order like a joke, and should be punished!" Huang Zhengqian appeared and said righteously.

Li Yu looked very embarrassed, "Teacher, Little Fourteen is wrong, but he brought back the head of Xu Tu's fierce general, and he can make up for it. Besides, he is Ben Gong's younger brother, so don't worry about it." Seriously."

"The emperor commits the same crime as the common people! The prince will inherit the great rule in the future, so he must know the law and break the law? If this kind of trend is encouraged, the people will be in danger, and the society will be in danger!"

"Oh, Taifu, don't embarrass me."

"Your Highness refuses to agree for a day, and I will kneel on this day." Huang Zhengqian burst into tears, knelt down and couldn't get up.

"This this……"

Li Li didn't want to embarrass his brother Huang, he also knew that Huang Zhengqian was old-fashioned, and he didn't want to be as knowledgeable as him, so he wanted to kowtow to his brother for punishment.

But I heard Brother Huang say to him: "Little Fourteen, the Taifu is right, so don't make it difficult for Brother Yu."

Li Li was stunned, and knelt and kowtowed belatedly, "Li Li, I heard what the emperor said."

Huang Zhengqian straightened his spine, and after saluting to Li Yu, he said uprightly: "His Royal Highness, please send an order. The fourteenth prince left the camp without authorization. He has lost discipline and lost our elite soldiers and generals. He will be dismissed from the position of deputy general and relegated to the guard in front of the account immediately." .”

"Little Fourteen, look..." Li Yu looked at Li Li anxiously.

"I plead guilty." Li Li smiled at the prince and told him that he was fine.

Li Li was wearing the thin armor of a soldier, standing in front of the big tent.

When he left the camp that night, he actually wrote a letter to Brother Huang to explain the reason, and put it on the case when he left. If Brother Huang went to his tent to look for him, he would definitely see it.

Perhaps, missed it.

A month later, Hengdi's award followed the fast horse to the barracks, praising the prince for his meritorious service in killing the enemy, and he won the first rank of Xutu's general.

The emperor specially gave the cakes to the imperial dining room, and several fast horses were exhausted, saying that they were for the prince to eat while they were fresh.

Li Yu took the pastry, "Thank you, Father, for the reward."

Huang Zhengqian burst into tears, "I thank Your Majesty Long En! Long live Your Majesty!"
