Chapter 328 Closing
The name Su Lie Su Dingfang is actually familiar to many people in the hall.

Li Shimin knew it best. After all, Ling Jing worked in Tiance Mansion, and Princess Pingyang knew it very well. After all, Li Shan stayed in the Princess Mansion for a month, and Su Dingfang was always by his side.

Li Jiancheng also knew this name. Wei Zheng mentioned Su Dingfang several times after returning from his inspection tour in Shandong, praising him as a general, but Li Jiancheng didn't care about it. What he wanted to win over was not a person with great general talent, but a person with power in his hands. Powerful soldiers... such as Luo Yi.

Now, Li Jiancheng naturally regrets it...Su Dingfang helped Chai Shao achieve such great achievements, and he himself was born as Li Shan's personal guard.

In a word, after this battle, Li Shan, Su Dingfang, Chai Shao, and Princess Pingyang are inseparable... Before, it was because of the grace of saving lives, but now they are converging on political stances.

However, Li Yuan had never heard of this name before, and asked about it with great interest... Li Jiancheng almost took out the posture of a storyteller, embellishing the story.

"Although he is Liu Heitai's old department, he has been able to abandon the dark and turn to the bright, and has made great achievements many times." Pei Ji smiled and said: "I don't think Li Scrutiny can still promote talents for His Majesty."

Li Yuan laughed and asked: "Since he has made great contributions to the court, why is no one recommending him to be an official?"

Princess Pingyang, who had been silent all this time, took the lead, "Father, Huairen gave life to his mother, and Su Dingfang joined the family."

"Although Huairen regards him as a brother, Su Dingfang is unwilling to become an official and leads his personal guards to guard him day and night. This time, Mr. Lang is really worried about the war. Seeing his courage, he asked for it."

Li Yuan immediately understood that the significance of his son-in-law's dispatch of troops this time was extraordinary, and Tuyuhun's combat power was not weak, and he had a lot of troops, so Chai Shao would borrow people... There is no way, he can't borrow people from the East Palace or Prince Qin's Mansion, right?
This is also the reason why Princess Pingyang took the lead to answer the question. Of course, she knew that Su Dingfang and Li Shan were one body, and she had never become an official. The reward is unreasonable.

"Speaking of Li's scrutiny, Fu Yun survived due to his injuries..." Pei Ji said with a smile: "The establishment of a wounded barracks has indeed made meritorious service in the war, and His Majesty must reward it."

"Jian Pei is right." Li Yuan thought for a while, "Huiren mentioned that there are wounded battalions in the army, and ten guards in the thousand-man battalion. They are counted by military merit."

"Father, I heard that Huai Ren wants to be released?" Li Jiancheng raised his voice, "Huai Ren's ability can be of great use."

"Experienced in Muyi County, it will be used by the court in the future." Princess Pingyang blocked it immediately. Although she didn't know the inside story, she knew that Li Shan was determined to let it go.

To put it bluntly, Princess Pingyang was really afraid that Li Shan would get involved with the East Palace if Luo Yi made such a fuss in the Forbidden Garden today.

Li Yuan turned to look at Li Shimin, "Erlang?"

"But it's up to the father to make the decision." Li Shimin said flatly: "Huairen is a man with mixed learning, which can be used in the court or sent abroad."

Li Yuan groaned and said nothing, today he promised Li Shan to serve as the county magistrate, if he is favored, he should be the assistant official of the state government, but this kind of position is not easy to sit in, the credit may not be obtained, and it is common to take the blame.

If you stay in the court, you will be promoted because of your meritorious service... It will be difficult to get a good position.

Moreover, Li Yuan is not only thinking about Li Shan himself, but also the relationship between Li Shan and Princess Pingyang... The latter is in charge of the Beiya Forbidden Army, and now there is Su Dingfang, who is a great general, staying in Beijing. They all have to win over.

After a moment of silence in the hall, a faint cough sounded, and Pei Shiju, who had completely white beard and hair, stood up tremblingly, "Poetry talent is unrivaled, and the skill is rejuvenated, but Li Shan is a man with good plans, long-term vision, and a sense of responsibility." ability."

"But the age is not weak, and His Majesty chooses talents for the country, and also needs to reserve talents for the country."

Li Yuan straightened up and said seriously: "Quan chooses characters, and Cao is responsible for choosing Cao. It is no fault of Mr. Pei. Please speak frankly."

"Don't dare to be praised by your Majesty." Pei Shiju thanked him first, and said slowly: "I have gone through several dynasties, and it is rare to comment on people in the world like Li Huairen..."

Listening to Pei Shiju's many praises for Li Shan, everyone in the hall had different thoughts, and most of them were a little surprised... They were surprised that although Pei Shiju was ranked as the prime minister and was also known as Zhongtian, after all, he first went south to Jiangdu with Emperor Yang of Sui Dynasty, and was later successively sent to Jiangdu. Collected by Yu Wenhuaji and Dou Jiande.

So after going north to Guanzhong to vote in the Tang Dynasty, although he was entertained by Li Yuan, Pei Shiju seldom participated in the government affairs in a substantial way.

Li Shimin calmly stared at the old man not far away, without averting his eyes...just a little regretful, regretting that Pei Ji praised Li Shan just now, and he couldn't hold back his smile.

"So Li Huairen will be a pillar in the future, but now he still needs to be sharpened." Pei Shiju said softly: "If your Majesty bestows favors and rewards, it is better to entrust important tasks."

Li Yuan nodded slightly, "Pei Gong...does this mean something?"

Pei Shiju changed the subject, "Your Majesty chose Liu Shirang to go north, and the forms of Yanmen and Mayi were changed. Gao Manzheng expelled Yuan Junzhang and called Shuozhou to vote."

"The importance of Hedong lies in Daizhou, and the importance of Daizhou lies in Yanmen."

"Yanmen is the backing of Mayi. Now Gao Manzheng is stationed in Mayi outside, and Liu Shirang and Li Gaoqian are leading the army inside. If we can set up a wounded barracks in Dai County, it will definitely boost the morale of the army."

"If Mayi is not lost, Yanmen will be solidified, and it will be difficult for the Turks to cross the river at will."

"During the Shandong war, Li Huairen planned the war and set up a wounded barracks. He was really the best candidate."

"Replacing county magistrate?" Li Yuan thought for a while, and frowned, "Pei Gong's ability to select and appoint is really unique."

Although everyone in the hall was a little surprised, they had to admit that Pei Shiju's proposal...was just right.

The reason is very simple. Dai County is the prefecture of Dai Prefecture and governs the important town of Yanmen.

But now, Mayi, which has been alone for many years, has returned, which means that Dai County is relatively safer and its importance has declined slightly... After all, Liu Shirang just went north, and Li Yuan ordered Zuo Wuwei General Li Gaoqian to lead his army to garrison Yanmen.

In other words, Li Shan's appointment as the county magistrate was to be gilded... the risk is not great, and he may also gain credit for setting up a wounded barracks.

Li Shimin couldn't help sighing in his heart, Pei Shiju deserves to be Pei Shiju, what an old fox!
Among the people in the hall, the one who is most afraid of the Turks is Li Jiancheng... He is afraid of what will happen if he cedes a thousand miles of land.

As far as the person who knows the Turks best, that is Pei Shiju... Li Yuan still has the intention of competing with the Turks.

And the one who can see it clearly in terms of strategy is Li Shimin... He is very clear that Pei Shiju put a piece of fat on Li Shan's mouth. It looks good and smells good, but he may not be able to eat it. .

Indeed, with Mayi in hand, Yanmen in Daixian County would not encounter too many dangers, and the Turks also lost the most important road from the grassland to the Hedong Road.

But will the Turks give up?
It's impossible!

Gao Manzheng promoted Shuozhou to vote in Tang Dynasty, but the Turks could not just watch Mayi return to Tang Dynasty, and they would definitely attack on a large scale.

At that time, if Mayi is breached, Yanmen in Daixian County will face the Turkic army... What will happen to Li Shan?
If he escapes... Li Shan's reputation will be ruined.

If it is a war, not everyone is Liu Shirang, who can hold on for more than a month under the siege of tens of thousands of troops.
