Traveling through the early Tang Dynasty starts with hanging

Chapter 421
In the huge hall, there was only one square table.

There were seven or eight plates of dishes on the table, looking at Yuhuchun, the leader of the association was chewing and drinking, his cheeks were flushed, Cui Xin frowned and sat reluctantly, wishing to get away.

Yu Sheshe and Li Shan are the most normal people, drinking lightly and slowly, eating a few mouthfuls of food from time to time... Yu Sheshe is also very skilled in using chopsticks.

"Xiaozheng, let's go back first." Li Shan said to Yuan Xiaozheng who poured the wine himself: "The two poetry collections brought back this time, read a lot."

"Yes." Yuan Xiaozheng put down the wine jar, took a few steps back, and bowed before retreating.

Yu Sheshe felt a little uneasy that Yuan Junzhang's son actually worshiped Li Shan as his teacher... Fortunately, I lived outside the city last night, but isn't it a bit risky to enter the city today?

"I didn't expect Huairen to be famous for his poetic talent." Yu Sheshe squinted his eyes and asked, "I'm looking forward to studying Sinology..."

Li Shan said solemnly: "In the future, I can inquire about brother Momo. If there is a chance, I can ask you in the pass...Everyone in the world says that there is no one in the imperial capital who is better than him."

Yu Sheshe blinked her mung bean-sized eyes, forced a smile and said, "Huiren is really good at both civil and military skills."

"Brother Mo Mo is being polite." Li Shan said with a smile, "However, what my younger brother has learned is indeed complicated, and he is also good at medicine."

"Medical skills?"

"Didn't that fellow Yuan Junzhang tell you?" Li Shan asked in surprise, "Princess Pingyang was seriously injured last year, and it was delayed until February this year. It's hard to get back, and the disease is deep into the bone marrow. She will be rejuvenated..."

"Oh oh oh..." Yu Sheshe almost understood. Yuan Junzhang said before that Li Shan was regarded as a nephew by the Tang Emperor, and he was also called a sister and brother of Princess Pingyang. This should be the reason.

Cui Xin snorted coldly, he just couldn't understand Li Shan's appearance... Hey, I don't know who was waiting outside the camp gate last night, how arrogant!
Li Shan glanced sideways, "Yuhu is in a strong spring, Cui Sheren wants to rest for a while?"

This is to drive me away... Cui Xin gritted his teeth, got up and flung his sleeves away.

"This person is a close minister of a sage." Li Shan picked up the wine jar and poured wine, and said with a smile, "You and I will narrate the story..."

Yu Sheshe glanced at Cui Xin's back, "If the Emperor Tang's close minister..."

The two of us discussed the alliance, but in fact it was the alliance between Tuli Khan and Emperor Tang, why should he be driven away?

Li Shan let out a long sigh, "Last night, I listened to Mo Momo's account of all the things in the grassland. Jieli Khan was very cruel and often oppressive, but Tuli Khan only tried his best to support..."

The association rate complained: "Before Du Bi succeeded to the throne, the tribes under his command were not as good as Yu Sheshe, and they were slightly more than a certain..."

After listening for a while, Li Shan couldn't help thinking in his heart that Yu Sheshe was the third son of Chuluo Khan. After Chuluo Khan died of illness, the tribe in his hands was divided into three parts, the eldest son Osheshe and the second son Ashina. She'er and the third son, Yu Sheshe, took over. Among them, Yu Sheshe was the youngest son, and according to the customs of the grassland, he was assigned the most.

But soon Osheshe died suddenly, and the tribe was annexed by Jieli Khan. In this case, Ashinasheer chose to seek refuge, while Yu Sheshe chose to attach himself to Tuli Khan.

In the next few years, Yu Sheshe was continuously dispatched to Liang Shidu, Liu Wuzhou, and Yuan Junzhang as supervisors. The tribes who stayed in the grassland were gradually eroded by Jieli Khan, until this time when Tuli Khan returned to Wuzhou. Yuan County.

It can be said that Yu Sheshe has become Tuli Khan's right-hand man, regardless of his power or his status as the youngest son of Chuluo Khan, and his weight is quite important.

Yu Sheshe did not shy away from this matter, in fact, these were the basis of the alliance between Tuli Khan and Tang Huang.

After explaining it in detail and using two examples as examples, Yu Sheshe asked, "Hui Ren asked about this..."

"Infighting in the grassland, Chang'an city is not much better!" Li Shan sighed, "Brother Momo must know King Qin..."

Yu Sheshe also sighed, "Of course I know King Qin's prestige."

Last year when Jieli Khan attacked Hedong, Yu Sheshe went out with the army, and Li Shimin sent troops to Hedong Road. In fact, Li Shimin did not go into battle in person in that battle.

However, unlike other Turkic generals, Yu She set up a supervisory army Liu Wuzhou, and led two thousand cavalry to capture more than half of Hedong Road. .

What impressed Yu Sheshe the most was the Battle of Baibi, where Liu Wuzhou was defeated, and Li Shimin took advantage of the victory to pursue him. He did not dismount for three days and four nights, and finally won a complete victory. Liu Wuzhou had to flee to the grassland.

After that, the King of Qin swept the Central Plains and pacified Hebei, and all kinds of achievements made the Turkic people in Shuozhou and grasslands faintly afraid.

Yu She set up a tentative question: "Prince..."

"The king of Qin has achieved great achievements, the crown prince is hard to protect himself, and the heir apparent in Beijing is tragic." Li Shan said with a wry smile, "This Cui Sheren was born in the Qinghe Cui family, but I don't know the details of it, so it's better to avoid some things. .”

The association rate on the side suddenly asked: "Then where are you from?"

"I became an official through the imperial examination." Li Shan said frankly, "It's not just boasting. I'm good at medicine, good at understanding people, poetic talent is second-to-none, familiar with classics and history, good at military affairs, and also has strategy. The prince and the king of Qin have been gentle."

"But being involved in the battle for the heir apparent, I'm afraid there will be something unbearable in the future... Just when I was panicking, it happened that Princess Pingyang was seriously ill..."

"Oh." Yu She said with a smile, "Huiren is lucky."

Li Shan nodded with emotion, "That's true. It's really a blessing to have His Majesty's favor, but the King of Qin and the Crown Prince..."

"That's why it was released to Dai County."

Yu Sheshe clicked his tongue twice, empathizing with each other, Li Shan was active and he was passive, but they were exiled to the frontier because of internal conflicts.

In the past two years, there was little contact between Li Tang and the Turks, and the business routes were cut off. Yu Sheqiu intended to form an alliance with Li Tang. Naturally, there was a demand for Li Tang's internal news, so he immediately asked in detail.

Li Shan knows everything he can say, and he can't wait to pour it all out... This is why he drove Cui Xin away. If the old man was present, he probably wouldn't be able to stand it.

"Before Xiaozheng went to Chang'an, I specifically told you that since you are my disciple, you should not accept invitations from the East Palace or Prince Qin's Palace at will."

"Hey, life is hard for both of us!"

"That's not true." Li Shan picked up the wine cup and drank it all in one gulp, "I will report everything to His Majesty in secret for the return trip, and ask him to make a decision."

After a pause, Li Shan said with a smile: "Don't worry, I have the right to perform secret performances, and Princess Pingyang is the most favored by saints."

Yu Sheshe nodded, "But everything needs to be discussed."

"It's roughly settled, and some things need to be discussed in detail in the future." Li Shan smiled bitterly: "But next year, I may have to relocate..."

"Ok?"

"Yugushi hates me to the bone, if he knows that someone is in Yanmen, he will definitely come and commit crimes." Li Shan shook his head, "It's better to run away."

Yu Sheshe laughed and nodded, "If you know you are in Mayi, you will definitely lead the troops here immediately."

Li Shan's hand that was pouring the wine was stiff, "Brother Momo, he wouldn't know that X is in Mayi, would he?"

"Sending people back to Wuyuan County, it only mentioned that the Tang emperor sent envoys to appease Yuan Junzhang." Yu Sheshe explained, "Huairen's words last night were correct...an enemy's enemy is a friend."

Li Shan grinned, "Not only that, this time I met Brother Mo Mo for the first time, and I feel like old friends at first sight."

"I also feel the same way." Yu Sheshe's cheeks were puffed up, and he might feel a little disgusted, so he immediately changed the subject, "Since this is the case, then all kinds of things still need to be discussed, such as Shuozhou now..."

Li Shan rubbed his brows, "Actually, I sent people back to Yanmen the day before yesterday to bring food and grass to Mayi. They should arrive today or tomorrow... It can't really make people starve to death."

Yu Sheshe was greatly astonished, "Your step is worthy of the name of Huairen."

Li Shan endured it unceremoniously... A batch of food and grass really doesn't matter. In fact, Daizhou is full of food and grass now, and Yuan Junzhang's nearly ten thousand army cannot be satisfied with this batch of food and grass.

Apart from other things, at least the attitude is displayed... Yuan Junzhang, you have to look at it with your eyes wide open. Although you can't vote for Tang, but Mayi is in such a miserable state, and the army is running out of food and grass. .

Only Li Tang and I, Li Huairen, are willing and able to manage.
