Traveling through the early Tang Dynasty starts with hanging

"Isn't that dead?!"

Although he already knew, but when Pei Ji mentioned the letter from Er Zhu Yichen and Lu Chengji, and mentioned Li Shan to Pei Shiju in a really arrogant tone, Li Dewu blurted out for a moment.

Pei Shiju's gray eyebrows trembled slightly, and he said with a light smile: "Not only survived, but also defeated, this battle will definitely be left in history."

Pei Ji was a little surprised by Li Dewu's attitude, but he didn't pay too much attention to it. The battle spread to Chang'an, and countless people were dumbfounded. Eight hundred warriors broke into the camp, cut down the sweat flag, chased and killed Xieli, and defeated the Turks. This must be left to future generations A legend.

Li Dewu also found that he had slipped his tongue, so he calmed down and cursed Jieli Khan in his heart for being too useless... This idea was exactly the same as Pei Shiju's, but his mouth was echoing, "After the King of Handan recruited Yuan Junzhang, he first captured the desire Gu Shi, and then chased Jieli Khan, after the two wars, I am afraid that it will be difficult for the Turks to invade the east of the river in a few years."

Pei Ji nodded slightly, "That's true. Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, the Turks have entered and exited Yanmen Pass at will, and they invaded the various prefectures in the east of the river. I'm afraid they will choose Longxi and the interior of the pass in the future."

Although Wenxi's Pei family is located in the southwest of Hedong, it is inevitable that they will be invaded by the Turks. In this way, the Pei family will benefit from the stability of Hedong.

Pei Shiju took a sip of the teacup, raised his hand to signal Pei Ji to drink tea, turned his head and glanced at Li Dewu coldly... Before he slipped his tongue, he couldn't help it, but then he mentioned the idea of ​​recruiting Yuan Junzhang and wanting to be captured alive, but Pei Ji couldn't hear it , but how could he not hear the sarcasm in his son-in-law's words.

Li Dewu wasn't sure if his father-in-law was responsible for the Turkic attack on Guji Town this time, but he pondered...it happened in the previous two times, so this time should be no exception, right?
Today's Li Dewu's status in the Pei family... well, it's hard to describe in one word.

Since the great victory in Yanmen, Li Dewu has completely broken his face with Pei Shiju, but the former is even more fearless. Anyway, it is already like this, father-in-law, you have to go down this road... It's a pity that you are the same as me. I could just watch that guy climb higher and higher, and even "help" a few times in it.

All in all, a bachelor is full of air.

Pei Shiju is not good. If he could eliminate the hatred in Li Shan's heart, if he knew that things would turn into what it is now, he would have expelled Li Dewu a long time ago, and even let him die suddenly, but now...it's not easy to do anything hands and feet.

So today, when Pei Ji came to the door, Li Dewu had the cheek to come forward, and Pei Shiju could only grit his teeth and look at his son-in-law... and endured the ridicule that only Weng and his son-in-law could understand.

They chatted a few more words, mainly because Pei Ji kept praising Li Shan... Pei Shiju and Li Dewu's teeth were itchy, but they still pretended to be nonchalant, had a smile on their faces, and even agreed a few times from time to time. sentence.

Li Dewu wanted to leave when he heard the end, he really couldn't listen to it... It was as if he was stabbing his own heart one by one with a needle!

On the contrary, Pei Shiju sensed something. His cousin was unknown in the past, and neither his ability nor his mind could be regarded as high-grade, but now he is the Prime Minister, mainly because of his friendship with His Majesty... Ever since Li Yuan sent Li Shan was regarded as his nephew, even after he was included in the clan, Pei Ji had always been close to Li Shan.

After a while, Pei Ji finally brought up the matter, "Third Brother, do you still remember Brother Jiyi's youngest daughter?"

Pei Shiju's eyes flickered, "The crown prince washes Wei Zheng?"

"However, she is Wei Zheng's wife." Pei Ji smiled and said, "Third Brother and Brother Ji Yi had a very close friendship back then, could you send me a letter..."

Pei Shiju fully understands that Prince Li Jiancheng still wants to make peace with him. Wei Zheng is the person with the deepest relationship with Li Shan in the Eastern Palace. The prince hopes to use this to persuade Li Shan... Maybe it is to persuade him to stop, maybe to persuade him to return to the court, or it may be a deal .

Pei Ji looked at Pei Shiju full of hope. It's really not good for Donggong to give orders to Wei Zheng directly for this matter. After all, Li Jing made Li Shan miserable, and Li Shan finally survived and defeated the Turks. Under the circumstances that the country and the locality have deep roots, persuading Wei Zheng, who is upright, to persuade Li Shan... this person may not be willing.

However, Wei Zheng's father-in-law also came from Wenxi Pei's Xijuanfang, and he was good friends with Pei Shiju in the early years, so Pei Ji came to Pei Shiju, trying to persuade Wei Zheng from this line.

Pei Shiju gritted his teeth secretly, feeling that the back molars were a little loose, "I will believe it later, and the sixth brother will send someone to send it."

Pei Ji breathed a sigh of relief, and looked at Li Dewu, "I remember that a few days ago, Shuying had a close relationship with Princess Pingyang..."

Li Dewu squeezed out a smile... This is a bit fucked up, not to mention that I haven't seen my wife for several months, even if I did, I can't persuade her, let alone Princess Pingyang invited Pei Shuying to the house several times...

Pei Shiju felt like he was having a splitting headache, he was committing a crime, and when he was old and encountered such a mess, he couldn't say it, he couldn't say it...Once the matter was leaked, there would be new interpretations of many things, such as why he recommended Li Shan to be the acting representative. County magistrates and such.

Li Dewu racked his brains and finally found a son who was sick. His wife worried day and night with an excuse to get Pei Ji out of the lake, and turned to see the mocking eyes of his father-in-law.

Your son is sick... You really don't shy away from it at all, yes, you have done such heartless things as abandoning your son.

"Father-in-law." Li Dewu was thick-skinned, and approached him indifferently, "I wonder if you were injured?"

Pei Shiju stared at his son-in-law coldly, "Lead the troops northward to pursue, there should be no serious injuries."

Li Dewu sighed, looking extremely regretful, he has long since given up on his own life, and in fact he no longer cares about Li Shan's life or death.

At this moment, in Princess Pingyang's mansion, the couple were listening carefully to the guards telling the details of the battle in Guji Town.

"Huiren named the Wengcheng?" Chai Shao stretched out his hand and gestured on the table with great interest, "Wonderful idea... No wonder the Turks were frustrated and decided to withdraw their troops."

The personal guard smiled wryly and said, "We will know later that Jieli Khan had heard that the Daizhou army had left Yanmen Pass, and sent the rest of the tribes to retreat northward, and led the Ashina clan to break up with the king's tent soldiers."

Chai Shao nodded slightly, "Jieli Khan is only going to make a gesture before he enters, so that the defenders will be strict and he will not dare to pursue."

"I didn't expect that the town of Guji was already exhausted. Once a war started, the city would be destroyed. That's why Huairen led [-] cavalry out of the city to fight to the death...Although it was a coincidence, the Turks were short of food and morale. It was crucial to fight at this time. .”

Princess Pingyang frowned and asked, "How is Huairen injured?"

After a pause, Princess Pingyang emphasized her tone, "Don't lie!"

The personal guard pursed his lips, and said in a low voice: "It is difficult to break the formation in the death battle of the King of Handan. His Royal Highness rushed forward and broke the formation."

Chai Shao and Princess Pingyang looked at each other with worry in their eyes. The husband and wife are both veterans in the battlefield, and they are very clear about the meaning of the so-called falling from the horse and breaking the battle.

Horses weighing hundreds of catties broke into the formation without avoiding guns and knives. In the moment of commotion, the knights dismounted with knives and fought on foot, using their own force to carve out a gap, so that the colleagues behind them could take advantage of the situation.

But is Li Shan capable of such a difficult and dangerous behavior?
Even if he did, would he survive unscathed?
You must know that the Turkic people are no more than the Central Plains warlords. They are basically cavalry. They don't need swords. Just trampling on horseshoes is enough to rupture the internal organs and vomit blood to death after a few hours.

The expressionless Princess Pingyang suddenly scolded in a low voice, "Die!"

Chai Shao was stunned, remembering that this seems to be a vocabulary mentioned by Li Shanchu when he returned to Beijing at the beginning of the year, what does it mean?
