Traveling through the early Tang Dynasty starts with hanging

Chapter 665
The Turks were defeated three times, the Cangtou River was victorious, and Jieli Khan ran northward in embarrassment. After the news spread, the whole Chang'an was a sensation. Since the fourth year of Wude, Li Shan has become the most attention-getting focus in Chang'an. figure.

This name has caused disturbances time and time again, and the poems and essays that are enough to be handed down to the world have made many people's ears callused, but such feats are really staggering.

The most important thing is that the Turkic Khanate, which controls millions of strings and has traversed the grasslands for hundreds of years, has always been a shadow over the heads of Chang'an City, from Li Yuan to the common people.

However, since Li Shan went to Dai County, the Turks suffered setbacks again and again, and the situation with Datang changed from an overwhelming advantage to a fundamental change within a year.

The rise of Daizhou, the establishment of commercial routes, the recruitment of Yuan Junzhang, the victory of Yanmen... and the third defeat of the Turks. Although it has to be admitted that the Turkic Khanate still took the initiative in the military, even Pei Shiju couldn't help it. If you don't admit it, it will be very difficult for the Turks to invade the land of the Tang Dynasty wantonly and plunder the population, food, and wealth as they did a few years ago.

In the box on the second floor of Dongshan Restaurant, several young men with thick necks who were blushing from drinking were all feeling emotional. The guy who fought with us that day... But in two or three years, he has already become known to the world, and His Majesty may be the first in the world. First-class, he has even been called a famous general by the courtiers.

It's so eye-popping!

These few are naturally the children of Prince Qin's mansion, Changsun Chong, Gao Xing, Fang Yizhi, Cheng Chumo, who have a good relationship with Li Shan, are all there, a young man can't help touching his forehead... This is Tang Jian, Duke of Ju. The eldest son, Tang Songling, had a fight with Changlepo, and he was the one who was knocked unconscious by a headbutt from Li Shan.

I'm done envious of Li Shan...now everyone is not jealous anymore, the exam is one point short, ten points short, maybe you will be jealous, if you get forty points in the exam, and others have already scored 99 points...

Now everyone is jealous of Li Kai. Thinking about it, I feel angry. The big guys were all the same, Luoyang Changsun family, Bohai Gao family, Qinghe Fang family, although they are not as good as the Longxi Li family with five surnames and seven families. , but Master Li's weight in Tiance Mansion is not as important as their parents' generation.

In the end, because of his friendship with Li Shan, Li Kai was sent to Dai County by the King of Qin. The victory of Yanmen and the victory of Guji Town and Cangtouhe all gained military exploits.

You must know that Li Kai is different from Lu Chengji, Li Yiyan and others. Although the latter two are also children of five surnames and seven families, they entered the official position through the imperial examination, while Li Kai entered the official position entirely through his family background, and the main reason is that he and Li Shan Chosen for best friends.

Now that the court is discussing meritorious service, it is said that Li Kai is very likely to be conferred a knighthood for his meritorious service... One must know that none of Master Li Ke could be conferred a knighthood, and the Danyang House of the Li family in Longxi has only been conferred the title of Duke of Yongkang by Li Jingjue.

"It's really lucky!" Cheng Chu silently bit a piece of beef brisket.

Chang Sun Chong hesitated and said: "It may not be possible to be a knight, right?"

Fang Yi glanced at several people without saying a word. He heard from his father Fang Xuanling that nine out of ten he would be knighted, and he would not be low, at least he would be a county lord or county uncle, not the lowest county male.

The reason is very simple, Li Kai and Li Shan are best friends, and now Li Shan and Li Jing are torn apart, His Majesty will definitely mediate between them, at least to save face, so it is very likely that Li Kai will be favored. Danyang Yifang's appeasement.

Fang Yi remembered what his father said to himself in the study last night... Is it because of old friendship that the King of Handan brought Li Demou to the north, or was it deliberately done?

Don't think about that anymore, I knew that Li Huairen's thoughts and tricks are amazing, and now he is no longer a person of the same level. Fang Yi always remembers that he bid farewell to Li Shan last year, and he praised him very much after returning home. His father looked at him with that weird look .

Although a little ignorant, Fang Yizhi's feeling... In the words of later generations, that is, you deserve it too?
Gao Xun suddenly said: "I heard that Princess Pingyang chose three famous doctors from the Imperial Medical Office to go north urgently. I don't know how the King of Handan is injured..."

"This battle promotes the prestige of the Tang Dynasty. Although the King of Handan is angry and stands in Beijing to watch, he will show kindness to the people under his rule and the soldiers under his command." Fang Yi raised his glass and said, "It will be safe and sound."

Several people raised their glasses together and drank it all in one gulp.

Although Fang Yizhi has a steady personality, after all, he was a young man who came home drunk, and as soon as he entered the house, he saw his father who was pacing back and forth in the yard.

Fang Xuanling's impression outside has always been that he is gentle, refined, magnanimous, and likes recommending people the most, but at home he always maintains the image of a strict father.

But to Fang Yizhi's surprise, his father didn't say a word of reprimand, but beckoned, and they went into the study together.

Fang Xuanling picked up an ink stick and slowly grinded it, and said casually: "The king of Handan broke the Turks three times, he made great achievements for a while, but his body was covered with cuts and bruises, did you hear that?"

Fang Yizhi leaned over slightly, "Yes, the King of Handan shot down the sweat flag, rode solo and charged into the battle, showing off his national prestige, the city was full of uproar, how could my child not know."

"Remember that you have some friendship with Huairen?"

"Uh..." Fang Yizhi was even more surprised, the relationship between himself and Li Shan was clear to his father, "In the fourth year of Wude, when the King of Handan went to Shandong, his father also wrote a letter to Tian Liuan, who was then the governor of Weizhou , was brought by the King of Handan."

Seeing his father's silence, Fang Yi added: "Afterwards, the King of Handan became famous for his poetic talent, most of his children were present, and he visited Sun Moon Lake many times."

"When I went to Daizhou, the baby also went to Baqiao to see him off..."

Fang Xuanling glanced at his son, the eldest son was strict and polite, but his talent was average, both civil and military skills and thoughts were average, some things he still couldn't explain clearly.

Such secrets as Li Shan's involvement in King Qin's command... Anyway, Li Kai knows it well, this time he just needs to put on a show and be able to fool the past.

The eldest son treats people with sincerity, has the style of a gentleman, and has no city in his chest. He didn't expect that among the children of Prince Qin's mansion, besides Li Kai, he had the best relationship with the King of Handan. Fang Xuanling did not expect this.

Thinking of this, Fang Xuanling said directly: "Your Majesty has issued an order that King Xu Handan will recover from his wounds in Daizhou. After he recovers, he will step down as acting governor Shi Huichao."

"I heard that Li Zhaode, the son of Chang'an Commander Li Qianyou, intends to go north to visit. You should go too."

Fang Yizhi was a bit confused. He didn't have much contact with the Li family's children in Longxi. It was because of Li Shan that he had only gotten acquainted with Li Kai and Li Zhaode in the past two years. After thinking about it, he asked tentatively, "His Royal Highness King Qin wants to recruit the King of Handan?"

The corners of Fang Xuanling's mouth were crooked, if he wanted to recruit Li Shan, would it be your turn?

I'm afraid I'm not qualified enough!
Indeed, in the end when Li Shan came to vote, it was His Royal Highness Qin Wang himself who came forward.

At this moment, in Cui's mansion in the next door, Cui Xin stared at his daughter lying on the bed with hateful eyes...why are you so stupid!
For the father's various hints, it was hard to get the servant to send the beautiful concubine back, but you want to send it back?
Send it to that kid to enjoy it? !
Miss Cui looked at her father amusedly, "Father also read Cousin Demou's letter. Although Li Langjun is fine, he is covered in bruises and bruises. Mrs. Zhou and Xiaoman have served for many years, so they will be able to take good care of them."

After a pause, Miss Cui added in a low voice: "Auntie frowned today..."

Well, the daughter is worried about getting along with her mother-in-law in the future... The black-faced Cui Xin sighed, cabbage doesn't need pigs to support it, and she has long legs to run away!
