Traveling through the early Tang Dynasty starts with hanging

Chapter 439
In fact, Li Shimin is not just watching the excitement... although it is very beautiful.

It is difficult for Li Shimin to judge the situation of Ma Yi, and he is also very worried about Li Shan's life and death, but at the same time, he is surprised by Princess Pingyang's anger today.

Maybe he was talking about Huairen's influence on Princess Pingyang... Li Shimin thought in his heart that since the farce when Luo Yi's personal guards attacked the imperial city that day, Princess Pingyang has taken full control of the Beiya Imperial Army.

Now in Chang'an City, Tiance Mansion has no garrison troops in name, but Li Shimin and his generals' personal guards and entourages. The total number does not exceed a thousand people. The Changlin Army at the East Palace was once supported by Luo Yi, but was After Li Yuan reprimanded, the scale was around 3000 people.

And the Beiya Imperial Army is divided into four armies, each army has about 2000 people, and they take turns to be on duty. No matter they are against Tiance Mansion or East Palace, they will crush them.

"Erlang?" Li Yuan really couldn't stand it anymore.

In the past, the two sons were fighting, but now it's fine, and the daughter is also fighting, and her words are sharper than Erlang... the prince is speechless.

Of course, in the face of Li Shimin, the strategist general, Li Yuan, the emperor, and Li Jiancheng, the prince of the East Palace, basically stood on the same position.

But Princess Pingyang is different. She has a high prestige in the army and is favored by Li Yuan, and she is not involved in the matter of seizing the heir... After all, Wu Zetian was just born now, so Li Jiancheng really can't do anything about it.

Seeing Princess Pingyang's sharp gaze, Li Shimin laughed dryly, "Huairen has made great contributions to the country. Don't talk about Shandong's plan, capture and kill Liu Heita, and don't talk about the weak enemy that put Yuan Junzhang in a desperate situation. Just talk about the horse market. The court depends on its strength, if it is trapped in Mayi, it is really unreasonable..."

"Father, why don't you ask Brother Huaiyang to send scouts to investigate?"

"Besides, there is Cui Sheren."

Not to mention Cui Xin is fine, but when Cui Xin was mentioned, Princess Pingyang was furious, and raised her voice: "If it wasn't for Cui Sheren, why would Huairen go to Mayi in person? Doesn't father know that Turks hate him to the bone?"

"You should know that the Turks hate Huairen deeply, and it is actually a state matter, so let go of personal hatred!"

Li Yuan was also speechless, "This... Pei Hongda suggested that he should send a close minister to appease..."

Li Shimin has already put things together. Pei Shiju's old fox probably did it on purpose. As long as Cui Xin goes to Mayi, Li Shan will go to Mayi for his own sake even if he is not for public affairs. Pointing at Li Shan.

What's more, Li Gaoqian and Li Shenfu accused Liu Shirang of treason... just after Cui Xin left Beijing and went north, is it a coincidence?

Various thoughts swirled in his mind, Li Shimin glanced sideways, Princess Pingyang's lips parted slightly, but she hesitated for a moment and didn't say anything... Well, the third sister must be an insider, and she also saw Pei Shiju's sinister intentions .

The situation has come to this point, and of course Princess Pingyang can see it. Although she doesn't know the details, she can be sure that Pei Shiju must have made a move.

"Father, my daughter is not feeling well today, please..."

"Then go back and rest." Li Yuan hurriedly urged his daughter to get off work. He also knew that her daughter wanted to go back and wait for news. Every letter from Li Shan was sent to Princess Pingyang's mansion first, and then transferred to the palace. .

Seeing the back of his daughter leaving sadly, Li Yuan sighed, since the Turks had arrived in Mayi, the consolation would inevitably fail, and Cui Xin might be detained by the Turks, there is still a chance in the future, but Li Shan... I heard Li Daoxuan mentioned it, Yu Gushe was tormented by Li Shan very much, and hated him to the bone.

Li Yuan was also heartbroken that Li Shan might be trapped in Mayi... Although this courtier is young, he is very sympathetic, and he really treats him like a nephew, which is a pity, a pity.

Tsk tsk, Li Shan still thinks... I'm really not good at charming!
But for an emperor, the sudden misfortune of the future pillars is regrettable, but it is not a big deal. Li Yuan turned to ask about the affairs of Yanmenguan. Since Mayi is not in hand, the Turks will definitely use Mayi to attack Hedong next year.

"Uncle Wang of Xiangyi is here, enough to protect Hedong." Li Jiancheng's eyes flickered, "Three Hus have returned to Beijing for more than half a month, brother Huaiyang should also return to Beijing, right?"

Li Shimin was vigilant, Xiangyi King Li Shenfu had never been involved in seizing his heir, and had never been biased, but his brother Huai'an King Li Shentong was attached to the Qin Palace. Could it be that the crown prince intends to win over Li Shenfu?

Li Shimin immediately remembered that before Li Gaoqian sued Liu Shirang, Li's talisman was attached to his name. Could there be other secrets during this period?
Li Yuan glanced across the faces of his two sons, nodded and said, "It's late November, and it will be the twelfth lunar month in a few days, Daoxuan should return to Beijing... As for Yanmen Pass..."

Daizhou is the gate of Hedong, and Yanmen Pass is the gate of Daizhou. It has always been garrisoned by generals and heavy troops. Before that, Li Daen, Liu Shirang, and Li Gaoqian were all well-known. Now Li Daoxuan is guarding Yanmen Pass. If he returns to Beijing, who will take the heavy responsibility?
Previously, Li Daen was the prince of the county, leading the governor of the state, Liu Shirang was ordered by the holy order to manage Mayi, Li Gao moved to the county, and led the generals of the twelve guards...Compared with him, Dongdao except Li Daoxuan, Only the Li rune remained.

However, Li Shenfu was originally the commander of the East Road March and merged with the governor of the state, so it is unlikely that he will be stationed at Yanmen Pass himself.

"In the twelfth lunar month of winter, the Turks will not come to invade. The matter of Mayi has not yet been found out. First, guard Yanmen with the younger brother of Huaiyang King." Li Shimin persuaded: "Huiren planned to move a large number of people from Shuozhou and Yunzhou by trade routes. , making Yuan Junzhang like a fish without water..."

After a pause, Li Shimin looked at Li Yuan, "Father, the Turkic invasion will be at least the end of May and the beginning of June next year. Maybe it is still possible to seize Mayi."

Li Yuan pondered for a long time before nodding his head and said: "Let's wait until the facts are clear, after all Pingyang..."

Li Jiancheng had nothing to say. After all, there was no news about Li Shan. At this time, Li Daoxuan, who was most likely to support and defend Li Shan, was called back to Beijing...Princess Pingyang was probably about to lose her temper.

Li Shimin's considerations are roughly the same, but there is no need for it. If there is no news about Li Daoxuan now, then the news has been cut off for ten days... If the Turks invaded, blocked the recruitment, imprisoned Cui Xin, and beheaded Li Shan, the matter would have been settled long ago. deal.

Li Shimin faintly sensed a little weirdness in his heart, and also had a little hope in his heart... There must be variables in this matter.

If there is a change, then Li Daoxuan cannot be allowed to leave Yanmen Pass at this time. If Yanmen Pass falls into the hands of Li Shenfu, things may get out of control.

Hedong is the birthplace of Li Tang's royal family, and the status of the governor of Bingzhou may be the pinnacle of the prefecture level. Li Shimin absolutely does not want to see Li Shenfu, who is also the commander of the east road march, put into the East Palace.

He thought in his heart, in such a situation, if Li Huairen could disturb the situation, the Japanese would not hesitate to reward him from the county king.

At this moment, outside the imperial palace, on Chengtianmen Street, Princess Pingyang, who was leading a steed, looked indifferently at the two prime ministers who were talking in front of her.

One is Pei Ji, Zuo servant of Shangshu province.

The other is Pei Shiju, the provincial servant under the door.
