Chai Shao said, “Although the Champion Marquis is the wife’s brother-in-law of Julu County, it would be better for Julu County to call him the lord in front of others.”
Chai Shao sighed, “Master…what should be there?”
Li Jing said, “If it weren’t for the lord of the lord of Tang, it would be the turn of Duke Tang to be called emperor? The world is the lord, but Duke Tang is his father, and he has no choice but to give in. But even if the lord gives in, he cannot retreat as the lord of the world.”
Chai Shao said, “I know. Now Li Erlang has almost one-third of the lord of the country. If he doesn’t become this emperor, which emperor can tolerate him?”
Chai Shao smiled and asked Li Jing again: “I understand, thank Pharmacist for advice. When Changsun Silang arrives, I will also call Li Erlang the lord.”
Li Jing nodded.
Chai Shao is not a fool, it seems that he can continue to make friends with Chai Shao in the future.
Although he cannot form a clique for personal gain, he must have one or two friends in the court, otherwise he will be unable to support himself. As a royal relative with both abilities and moral character, Chai Shao is one of the best friends.
Of course, Li Jing did not recognize Chai Shao as his friend just because of his identity. Friends and allies are still different. He has also recognized Chai Shao as a person during the past few months of getting along.
When he persuaded himself to surrender to the magistrate of Shu County, Chai Shao also made a lot of efforts. In addition to the shortcomings of “I miss my wife” dozens of times a day, Chai Shao’s behavior is difficult to be picky.
Li Jing also often talked about military tactics with Chai Shao, and had a great time. Although Chai Shao has never led the army, Li Jing can see that Chai Shao can lead the army well.
Although the two of them were walking together, they were actually guarding against each other.
Now that things have settled, Li Jing and Chai Shao have really become colleagues, and they have finally put down their guard and their friendship has made rapid progress.
Li Jing mentioned that Chai Shao would treat Li Shimin with the etiquette of the monarch and the subject in the future. Li Yuan’s current power is far less powerful than Li Shimin. He cannot suppress Li Shimin. There is no room for his ministers to be “neutral”. If he stands in a team, he must stand clearly and not sway left and right.
Chai Shao mentioned that Li Jing should not just look at Li Shimin. It is crucial that the sick and weak counselor Li Xuanba hid behind Li Shimin.
Li Jing said curiously: “Although I have heard of Li Sanlang’s reputation, I don’t know what Li Sanlang is in private?”
Chai Shao showed a memory look: “Li Sanlang, he is the rebellious madman in the Wei and Jin Dynasties, probably he is like him.”
…
“Ah Yeh Yeh Yeh Yeh!” Li Xuanba sneezed three times in a row, and then shivered fiercely.
He felt a strong malice!
Li Shimin was startled by Li Xuanba’s sneeze, jumped up from the couch, jumped barefoot to the ground, and rushed to the subwayBi goes to get Li Xuanba’s coat.
Li Xuanba stretched out his hands and refused Li Shimin’s thick coat, like a furry cat who refused to get close to him.
“It’s such a hot day, do you want to cover me with prickly heat!”
Li Shimin said, “You sneeze! You must have caught a cold!”
Li Xuanba said, “No, it must be someone who said bad things about me, or very vicious bad things!”
Li Shimin doubted, “How vicious can it be??”
Li Xuanba said, “I don’t know.”
Li Shimin said, “Who says bad things? Jie Li Khan? Li Jiancheng?”
Li Xuanba rolled his eyes and said, “How did I know?”
Li Shimin walked around his younger brother twice: “Don’t you sneeze?”
