Traveling through the early Tang Dynasty starts with hanging

Chapter 202 Causal Inversion
There was a sound of pushing the door, and Ling Jing, who had been staring at the dancing candle, looked sideways, and Li Shan, who was carrying a bamboo basket, walked in with a smile, and put a few small dishes on the table.

"Uncle Ling is bigu?" Li Shan smiled and handed over the chopsticks, "Could it be that you want to ascend to immortality?"

"What a mess." Ling Jing didn't raise his hand, frowned and said, "You are very capable. You came to Chang'an for only a few months last year, and you were able to make friends with the children of the Li family in Longxi and the Wang family in Taiyuan."

"For friendship, sincerity is the most important thing." Li Shan put the chopsticks upright in front of Ling Jing, hooked a bench with his feet, and sat down with a smile.

Li Shan's words seem to be an answer but not an answer. It is natural luck to be able to make friends with Wang Renbiao and Li Kai, but it is also a helpless choice to reveal all his life experience.

Uh, of course, I have to admit that Wang Renbiao's expulsion from the house was an opportunity for Li Shan to make friends... Pity each other!

Later, Li Shan made Li Kai and Wang Renbiao his good friends in the name of benevolence and righteousness... I have to say that the Zhu family played a key role, at least the fifty pennies donated to Wang Renbiao were not in vain.

Leaving the Chang'an county government office today, Li Shan asked Li Kai and Wang Renbiao about this matter. If there is something... In this era, the son cannot speak, but other people can.

By the dim candlelight, Ling Jing stared at the young man in front of him for a long time, and suddenly remembered that he seemed to always have a smile on his face, even when he was furious, there was a smile on the corner of his mouth.

Such a life experience and a gentle smile created a very sharp contrast in Ling Jing's heart, and had an impact on him that was not violent but hard to ignore.

As early as that dark morning, when he left the village where he had lived for half a year, Ling Jing immediately noticed Li Shan's strangeness... This strangeness came from the relationship between Li Shan's profound knowledge, awe-inspiring demeanor, and never revealing his life experience. contradiction.

Until Guantao City, Ling Jing said bluntly, and Li Shan only said that he exposed after the war.

Since then, Ling Jing has been thinking about the origin of this young man... Although he, Su Dingfang, and more than a hundred people have already been tied to this boat that he does not know whether it will sink.

Ling Jing looked at Li Shan with extremely complicated eyes. He had considered many possibilities, or it was hard to tell, or he had offended some important person, or it might be that his father and grandparents were notorious.

Arriving at Zhujiagou today, Ling Jing made some inquiries, and after learning that Li Shan was taking care of his mother...he concluded with confidence in his heart that this should be an illegitimate child.

Although Li Shan claimed that he was not a descendant of the Li family in Longxi or the Li family in Zhaojun, it may be because the illegitimate child could not be included in the genealogy... By the way, the rescue of Li Daoxuan might also be the illegitimate child of the clan.

It was not until two hours ago that Ling Jing was here, listening to Li Kai and Wang Renbiao telling about Li Shan's life experience in a tactful tone...Su Dingfang and Ma Zhou were very indignant, but Ling Jing thought of many things after being shocked for a while.

Pei's family in Hedong.

Ling Jing has been famous for a long time. He had a small reputation as early as the time of Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty. Although he did not become an official, he also made friends with Guangji. Famous all over the world.

In fact, Ling Jing and Pei Shiju were colleagues last year!
In the second year of Wude, Yuhuaji was defeated. Dou Jiande welcomed Pei Shiju into the summer. Ling Jing also met that lady Pei.

Under Dou Jiande's command, Pei Shiju first served as Minister of the Ministry of Officials, and later was promoted to You Pushe of Shangshu Province. He presided over the selection of officials and set the court's etiquette.

This is an out-and-out old fox.

Thinking of this, Ling Jing couldn't help feeling a little pity for Li Shan, who was abandoned by his father, caring for his mother is enough to be called a filial piety, and even more able to turn the tide in the war in Hebei, so that he became famous in Shandong, but the Pei family of Hedong, a dual-faced Pei family of Hedong... …

"Li Demou and Wang Xiaoqing have their own positions after all, and some things should not be asked in detail." Ling Jing rarely used such a gentle tone to Li Shan, "Since Liu Wenjing was killed, Pei Ji has been the Prime Minister of Li and Tang. I don't know what position Pei Hongda has now?"

"Last year when I came to Chang'an from the west, I won the trust of the sage. First I served as the censor, then I was named the county magistrate, and then I was appointed as the servant. I worshiped the prince Zuo Shuzi, and then I changed to the prince Zhanshi." Li Shan said softly: "Senior officials and servants set two People, although there is no difference between the upper and lower, but the court and the central government recommend, with Jiang Guogong Chen Zicong as the head."

"He's also the prime minister." Ling Jing looked solemn, "If it wasn't for Pei Ji, Pei Hongda would never step down. Pei Ji..."

"Taiyuan Yuanmou's meritorious official ranks third. The King of Qin has been fighting outside all year round. Pei Ji has a lot of contacts with the East Palace." Li Shan looked very relaxed. There is little contact with Qin Wangfu."

Ling Jing smiled wryly, he stayed in the house and didn't go out to the banquet, mainly because of this... There was nothing he could do in the face of He Dong Pei's family.

After deliberately laughing a few times, Ling Jing changed the topic to a more relaxed one, "Listen to what Li Demou said, you entered Chang'an from Lingnan, and it took only one year, so the commotion is not small?"

Li Shan laughed and said, "It's really a coincidence..."

"Not necessarily, not necessarily!" Ling Jing put on a cautious demeanor, "From the Bo to the south, along the way... almost every day there will be some disturbances!"

"Beheading the enemy army and rescuing Zhang Xuansu was just a small test, and then attacked the camp at night and broke the city...your mouth...in the end, you were surrounded by tens of thousands of Turkic troops."

"Even if we are about to leave, something like that happened in Qinghe County."

Ling Jing sighed: "At first I thought it was only in Shandong, but I didn't expect it to be in Chang'an...you can make noises everywhere, it's really not a law-abiding person."

"In the future, I'm afraid Chang'an will be lively."

"No, King Qin and the crown prince's fight for the heir apparent is already lively... I'm afraid it will be even more lively with you added!"

Li Shan's lips were trembling, there were too many slots, and he didn't know where to start.

Is it because I provoked the abolition of Dongshan Temple in the first place?
Afterwards, Changle Slope, beheading the intruders, and being called by Li Qianyou as an aide to go south with the army, none of which I took the initiative to cause trouble, right?
Ling Jing picked up his chopsticks and ate a few mouthfuls of food slowly, filling his stomach a bit, and then said: "Today Li Demou mentioned that Li Dewu has entered the East Palace, and he is also the crown prince. This position is not high and empty, but if you often Go to the East Palace, and be close to people for the prince."

"Pei Ji is close to the crown prince, Pei Shiju concurrently serves as crown prince Zhan Shi, Li Dewu also enters the East Palace, and you have been praised by the king of Qin before, and you are also familiar with Li Daoxuan, Tian Liu'an, Qi Shanxing and other kings of Qin."

"It's no wonder that in Beizhou, you asked King Qin if he could help you..."

You are looking for a reason for being able to help me... Li Shan wanted to laugh a little, it really wasn't because Li Dewu voted for the East Palace that I could choose King Qin.

Uh, karma just reversed.

It should be that I can only choose Qin Wang Li Shimin, so Li Dewu needs to choose the East Palace.
