Chapter 1017 Secret Meeting (End)

Li Shan has also considered this issue. It is easier for Li Shimin to manage alone. He can choose to live in Shangshu Province or Tiance Mansion, but he must not stay in the palace forever. Besides, his wife and son are still in Chengqian Palace.

If Li Shimin cannot move out of the palace in a short period of time, then the defense mainly depends on the Beiya Forbidden Army... Who made Li Yuan so heartbroken? In history, there are very, very few cases of adult princes and emperors living together in the same palace, and this is also the reason. It is impossible for Li Shimin to mobilize brave generals like Qin Qiong and Yu Chigong to bring their personal guards to guard Chengqian Palace.

"In the Beiya Forbidden Army, the left and right Qianniu Guards are in charge of guarding the sword and guarding the guards and guarding the palace." Li Shan obviously thought about it a long time ago, "General Zhang Jin of the Left Qianniuwei, and Dou Gui, the General of the Right Qianniuwei .”

"Left Qianniuwei generals Zhang Cong and Yu Wenshao, right Qianniuwei generals Kan Ling and Li Keshi." Li Shimin showed a satisfied smile, "Huairen has a heart."

The Beiya Forbidden Army governs the Left and Right Qianniu Guards and the Left and Right Gate Supervisors. The former is in charge of palace guards and the latter is in charge of access control. Li Shimin knew that this was specially arranged by Li Shan last year.

Zhang Jin and Dou Gui are independent from both sides, one is the boss, the other is a relative of the Dou family, there is no need to get involved, the rest Zhang Cong and Li Keshi are both officials of Tiance Mansion and Li Shimin's brother-in-law. Kan Ling is Li Shan's old department. Although Yu Wenshao has a lot to do with Qi Wang Li Yuanji, he was also Li Shimin's old department.

Now those who stay in Chang'an are Yu Wenshao and Zhang Cong. When the battle in Lingzhou is over, the East Palace will most likely transfer back General Feng Li, General of the Left Prison Guard, and then Li Shimin will be able to transfer back General Li Keshi, General of the Right Qianniu Guard. up.

Li Shimin thought over and over again, "For the time being, I won't move out of the palace, and His Majesty may not be willing to see it...we'll talk about it after the war is over."

"Your Highness, you need to bring personal guards when going in and out." Li Shan reminded: "After all, most of the gates are controlled by Luo Yi's personal guards."

"Well, don't worry, Huairen." Li Shimin was full of ambition, "If something happens, Huairen may need to persuade Third Sister."

"Third Sister may have already guessed it." Li Shan pouted, "Huo Guogong is quite an insider."

"Forget about it for now." Li Shimin affirmed with a smile. He remembered that Changsun Wuji once encouraged Li Shan to win over Princess Pingyang, but he was embarrassed by Li Shan. Later, if he hadn't taken a concurrent post in Tiance Mansion, he would have been blocked by Su Dingfang from entering Not the imperial city.

At this moment, in the Cui Mansion, Cui Xin was still waiting silently, but when he heard the sound of light and rhythmic footsteps, he couldn't help frowning.

"Lang Jun." Mrs. Zhang opened the door and came in, and asked in surprise, "Where's Huairen?"

"I heard that you are drunk, where is it placed?"

Cui Xin was speechless, and could only mumble a few words. Mrs. Zhang frowned and stared at her husband, and said in a low voice, "Today, Huairen is going to see Eleven Niang, and if it didn't work out, he made an appointment with the official cold food... Really. Some don't know etiquette."

"Could it be possible to regret the marriage?" Cui Xin sneered, "Don't worry, Li Huairen is not a good gentleman, but he knows propriety, and there is another reason for today."

"Another reason?"

"Yeah." Cui Xin was a little absent-minded, "It's all a matter for the court, so don't bother with it."

Mrs. Zhang was a little worried, "Where did Huairen go?"

"I don't know, maybe he went out to visit friends. After the first battle in Tiantai Mountain last year, he has a lot of contacts."

Mrs. Zhang hesitated for a while and didn't ask any more questions. She turned around and was about to leave, but she saw a person walking quickly, and by the moonlight, it was clearly Li Shan.

"Mother-in-law..." Li Shan was also a little surprised, why did Mrs. Zhang come to the front yard.

"Huiren..."

"Ahem." Mrs. Zhang looked back casually, and Cui Xin immediately stopped talking.

"Where did Huairen go?"

Li Shan was startled, "I drank too much wine with Dalang and Zhigui today, so I just went to change clothes."

The corner of Cui Xin's mouth twitched... He couldn't explain it, Li Shan went out and found a friend's house to pay respects, right?

After sending Mrs. Zhang away respectfully, Li Shan gave Cui Xin a contemptuous look, it was too embarrassing, he made you shut up with just one look.

Cui Xin entered the study with a dark face, and asked angrily, "Is everything going well?"

"Successful." Li Shan was replaying the secret meeting tonight, "King Qin is quite magnanimous and tolerant."

"Accommodating people?"

Li Shan really had nothing to say about Cui Xin's political sensitivity. He grinned and said, "Since the world is unified, the world has a strong army. One is the Daizhou Army and the other is the Lingzhou Army."

"The Daizhou Army was formed by my son-in-law, even though it is now under the jurisdiction of the Duke of Dai, Li Yaoshi, but..."

"The current coach of the Lingzhou Army is Su Dingfang."

"Your Majesty despises the crown prince. Although he does nothing, he already has the heart of easy storage. The king of Qin has already suppressed the East Palace. If he has no tolerance, how can he accept the son-in-law?"

To put it bluntly, if Li Shimin did not accept Li Shan, or had suspicions about Li Shan, then there would be no secret meeting tonight... These Cui Xins were naturally unexpected, but they also acted as if I understood.

Urging Cui Xin to go to the backyard, Li Shan lay down in the inner room. It was already late at night, but he didn't feel sleepy. Loophole... In the previous confrontations with Pei Shiju, to put it bluntly, they were fighting against each other, but this time it was a face-to-face fight with real swords and guns.

Although Li Shan has confidence in an old fox with a long history and has survived for several dynasties, he is also extremely vigilant.

Don't think about how Pei Shiju will encourage the prince anymore, but as long as the left and right Qianniuwei can protect the Chengqian Palace, as long as Ma Zhou can control the Xuanwu Gate and prevent the Changlin Army from entering the Taiji Palace, he will basically be invincible Li Shan breathed a sigh of relief.

The next step is to wait for the battle in Lingzhou to end. A few days ago, Li Kai wrote to Su Dingfang, taking the Jihu cavalry as the vanguard, to break through Wenchi and Zhulong successively, occupying the southeast corner of Lingzhou, and then dispatch Zhang Shigui with cavalry and infantry Going up from the Hulu River to the southwest corner of Lingzhou, they blocked the connection between the Liang army in Huizhou and Lingzhou, and then sent the captured Liang Guoli Minister Lu Jilan to Huizhou to try to persuade the Liang army in Huizhou to surrender.

Just now, Li Shimin was still praising Su Dingfang for his skillful use of troops, and his tactics.

It is now the end of February. If all goes well, the war that lasted for more than half a year should end before April. After all, Jihu was attached to the Tang Dynasty, Xiaoguan fell, and Liang Luoren was captured alive. Little fighting spirit.

As for whether Liang Guo can be destroyed, it depends on Dou Gui's actions in Yanzhou, and it also depends on whether Su Dingfang can take advantage of the victory and pursue it. However, thunderbolts and quick attacks to defeat the enemy are Su Dingfang's strengths.

Afterwards, the military exploits must be agreed, and then Li Keshi and Kan Ling should be transferred back to Chang'an as soon as possible, so as to prevent the East Palace from intervening in the key position of General Qianniuwei.

Going further... Li Shan suddenly stopped, and turned to look at the dark backyard of Cui's mansion. No, the first thing he has to do now is to welcome his relatives. I haven't seen each other for a long time, so I have to take a good look at the flowers and candles in the bridal chamber, and take a good measure.
