People in Beijing are doing big things and making a fuss.
Changsun Wuji asked, “Do you want to follow the emperor’s wishes?”
Li Shimin said, “Look at the situation first.”
Liu Wuzhou led Turkic troops to attack the Central Plains, which was the target of his purge. He just persuaded Liu Wuzhou to surrender.
I won’t say that it’s so slow now, but in the future, I will tell my father how difficult it is to kill Liu Wuzhou in order to make his father feel faced.
Liu Wuzhou now only occupies one county in Mayi. He was originally entrenched in Fenyang Palace. When he found that the world had all the general trend of Qin King Li Shimin, he searched the few supplies in Fenyang Palace again, even the better wood was removed, and he hid in Mayi and kept his door in his door.
When Wei Zheng appeased Qilu, he stretched out his hands very long and wrote a letter to Liu Wuzhou, hoping that Liu Wuzhou would surrender.
But because Li Shimin took the banner of “just die if you are a dog for the Turks”, Liu Wuzhou did not dare to surrender.
However, the letter of persuasion to Liu Wuzhou that Wei Zheng wrote to Liu Wuzhou was just a cover. His letter only told Liu Wuzhou that the situation was hopeless, which caused panic among Liu Wuzhou’s generals.
Liu Wuzhou is the lamb to be slaughtered. Why do you die with Liu Wuzhou? It was Liu Wuzhou’s fault to defect to the Turks. You are secretly betrayal, and now is the time to make things happen.
Under Wei Zheng’s hard lobbying, many powerful generals have fled to Mayi and defected to Wei Zheng.
Liu Wuzhou failed to take down Yanmen County this time, so Li Shimin rested in Yanmen County, and was welcomed by the local people to spontaneously take food and drinks and slurry.
Li Shimin has always been kind and can chat with ordinary people at will.
The people on the frontier do not know too many other rules about the noble and the humble. Li Shimin was willing to chat with them, so they talked nonsense with the crown prince.
Some people patted their chests and said that they had followed Li Sanlangjun to repel hundreds of thousands of Turkic troops. If His Highness was short of soldiers, they could fight with His Highness now.
Li Shimin laughed happily, “Li Sanlangjun is my younger brother. Didn’t you find that I look very similar to him? We are twins!”
The people looked at Li Shimin carefully and shook their heads, “Li Sanlangjun is much thinner than the crown prince, not like him or not.”
Li Shimin said, “He was sick at that time, but now he is like him. Look carefully.”
In order to give His Highness the crown prince, the people had to nod and say that he really looked like him.
Li Shimin was very happy and asked carefully about the details of Li Xuanba’s enchanting a 100,000 army on the spot.
When he and his brother met again after a long separation, they looked at their health. He wanted to ask afterwards, but Li Xuanba was very thin in some strange places and sent Li Shimin at will. Although Li Shimin pulled Li Zhiyun, Luo Shixin and others to ask each other one by one, there is a new perspective for him to listen toWhen he reached his younger brother’s strength, he had to wait for logistics anyway, so he spent a day listening to the people talking about Li Xuanba’s great achievements.
Luo Shixin is the party involved. After hearing this, he told Li Shimin that what the people said was exaggerated and even added a lot of strange powers and magical content out of thin air. In fact…
Li Shimin interrupted, “It’s nothing, I think what the people say is true. You are just too humble.”
Luo Shixin shut up obediently. He understood that the lord just wanted to hear others brag about Sanlang, and it didn’t matter what he brags about.
When Wei Zheng brought Liu Wuzhou’s surrendered general to Taiyuan, Li Shimin happily put his hands in his sleeves with the people and squatted on the ground to chat.
Wei Zheng’s face immediately sank.
Xue Shou hurriedly grabbed Wei Zheng.
Xue Shou originally followed Li Shimin to the grassland, but Wei Zheng had an identity as “Zhi Shilang’s planner” that Li Shimin and Li Xuanba almost forgot. The court distrusts the whole of Shandong and Hebei to Wei Zheng for comfort. Li Shimin sent Xue Suo to Wei Zheng, calling him to supervise Wei Zheng.
Xue Shou doesn’t matter. As long as he is not allowed to return to Beijing to handle paperwork, he can make contributions wherever he goes.
Any literati will become wild after staying in the military camp for a long time. Xue Shou has completely forgotten how to be an ordinary literati.
Xue Daoheng supports Xue Shou very much. He boasted randomly, and he was like Xue Shou, “can fight when he got on a horse, and could write poems when he got off a horse.” The old friends all smiled awkwardly and politely.
