Wanli 1592

Chapter 524 What is seen in the eyes of the beholder

When Li Chengliang woke up again, it was already evening.

Li Chengliang opened his eyes and saw the top of a bed, turned his head to look again, and found himself in a room.

"Come... come..."

Li Chengliang wanted to sit up, but he was full of doubts and had nowhere to solve it. He didn't even have the energy to sit up. His whole body was sore and weak, which made him very passive. Can't shout out, can only cry out in a low voice.

Good thing there was someone in the room.

"Father! You're awake!"

Li Rusong appeared in front of Li Chengliang with a look of surprise. He quickly squatted in front of the window, looking at the old father who opened his eyes, tears flowed down his face.

"Rusong? You... are you here?"

"Yes father, the child is here, the child is not filial, the child came too late, so that the father is tired, father, the child is not filial!"

Li Rusong's eldest age, he was like a child in front of his old father, holding Li Chengliang's hand tightly, lowering his head and crying.

"Why are you crying, Rusong, you... why didn't you know when you came here? Also, where is this father? What is this place? Isn't father guarding Zijing Pass?"

Li Rusong raised his head, nodded and said: "Father is at Zijingguan, and we are still at Zijingguan. It's just that my father was overworked and stimulated, and fainted, so he rests here. The defense of Guancheng has been completely taken over by Admiral Xiao. So far the Mongols have not launched an attack, so father can rest assured."

"Xiao Ruxun is really here?"

Li Rusong nodded: "Xiao Ruxun really came, he came by boat, and the emperor personally summoned him back. I had already arrived in the capital, but I waited for him for four days before rushing here with him." , father, the child is not filial, let the father suffer!"

"........."

Li Chengliang didn't have the heart to talk about his own suffering now, his thoughts were turning back and forth, and all he could do was sigh.

"I, Li Chengliang, fought for the Ming Dynasty for nearly [-] years. In the end, I still can't escape the fate of a new generation replacing the old one. Rusong, the life of being a father is over, and there is no hope. The next few decades , should be Xiao Jixin's glory."

Listening to Li Chengliang's words, Li Rusong was a little surprised. In his memory, his father, who never gave up and was extremely competitive, actually had a day of giving up and admitting his old age?

"Father...you...you are not old yet."

Li Rusong said this very without confidence.

"Not old? Rusong, you are so old, and your children can go to the battlefield to kill the enemy. How can you not be old as a father? If you are a father, you will always strive for strength and victory. In the end, you will not be able to defeat the passing of time. , it's all life, it's all life..."

"Father……"

"Okay, let's not talk about it, the emperor has decided to support Xiao Jixin, just like Zhang Jiangling supported me and Qi Jiguang back then. This is also Xiao Jixin's fate, and he can't escape. How many soldiers and horses did you bring? How many soldiers did Xiao Jixin bring?" Horse? Are you sure you can solve the siege of Zijing Pass?"

Lying on the bed, Li Chengliang suddenly regained his energy.

Li Rusong calmed down his mood, and said, "Back to father, Xiao Ruxun brought three thousand soldiers and horses and some cannons, my son brought ten thousand iron cavalry, and my slave brought ten thousand iron cavalry, making a total of twenty thousand. These tens of thousands of Mongolian cavalry are not under Haier's words.

If confronting the enemy head-on, the boy is sure to win the battle, but he doesn't know how Xiao Jixin arranged it. He was ordered to restrain all the troops at Zijing Pass, and he was not restrained by Wang Shiyang. He directly obeyed the emperor's order and fought independently. Follow his orders. "

Li Chengliang frowned and searched, feeling that something was wrong.

Letting Xiao Ruxun be the commander-in-chief was already an outrageous thing, but now he is in charge of the army independently, not subject to the restraint of civil servants and superiors, and has the right to do things cheaply, and only listens to the emperor's orders. The model of nobles commanding troops to fight.

"The emperor wants to cultivate trusted generals. Xiao Jixin was single-handedly raised by him. He has no civil servants as his protective umbrella, so he can only find the emperor as his protective umbrella. Xiao Jixin can fight, and his prestige is extremely high. One person is comparable to a hundred thousand elite soldiers. The emperor did this. I really don't know what will happen to the court after this battle.

It seems that the imperial city can't stay here anymore. Rusong, after resigning for his father, will write to the emperor to beg for his bones and return to Liaodong to retire. After this battle is over, don't try to stay in the capital, you must go back to Liaodong to stay. Waiting and watching the changing situation in the capital, if my father expected it to be true, this time, there will be big changes in the court. "

After seeing through many things, Li Chengliang began to try to look at what was about to happen with the eyes of an outsider, and suddenly came to a lot of insights, which made him have to lament that the authorities are obsessed, but the bystanders are clear. Time to be a bystander.

From the perspective of a bystander, Li Chengliang suddenly thought of some very terrible things, and even remembered some details that he had missed three years ago when Xiao Ruxun left town for no reason and did not return to the capital.

Is it...

Until now, Li Chengliang had finally figured out some things, and he didn't know whether it was luck or misfortune.

"Father, what do you mean by this? What do you mean that there will be waves in the court? What do you mean by big changes?"

"You listen to my father, don't ask too much now. After this battle is over, no matter how much credit you have made, don't try to stay in the capital and return to Liaodong. With Liaodong as the foundation and slaves outside, our Li family can be in danger. No chaos, sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, at least they won't be easily implicated.

Also, Rusong, you have to remember!If the father is gone by then, no one will remind you, you have to remember yourself, when the situation is not clear, you must strictly restrain yourself and your family, and never get too close to anyone, whether it is Xiao Jixin or No one, don't get too close, this way, at least my life can be saved! "

Li Chengliang suddenly warned Li Rusong very seriously.

Li Rusong felt a burst of panic in his heart for no reason.

"Father, what did you think of?"

Li Chengliang closed his eyes, took a deep breath, opened his eyes for a long time, was silent for a while, and did not say what he thought of.

"Okay, it's too early to think about this now, Rusong, you just need to remember what you said for your father and do it, don't think too much, don't think too much."

Li Rusong hesitated for a while, but he didn't ask any further, and replied honestly: "Yes, father, the child will remember."
