Traveling through the early Tang Dynasty starts with hanging

Chapter 682 I Can't Wait That Long
That night, many people slept peacefully, and many people had difficulty falling asleep.

Those who sleep soundly have reasons, and those who have trouble falling asleep naturally have reasons... For example, Pei Shiju who is still leaning on the couch, staring blankly at the lonely lamp.

Suddenly, the chaotic noise outside interrupted Pei Shiju's thoughts. The old man summoned his servants with a blank face... The only ones who have the courage to make trouble in the prime minister's house in the dead of night are the ones who let him die. Who else is there for a son-in-law who wants to rise up?
The sound of hurried footsteps approached, and Li Dewu appeared in front of Pei Shiju with a grinning mouth. The expression on his face was complicated and unspeakable. Cheng, why is father-in-law absent?"

If it was in later generations, Li Shan would definitely persuade this person to register... I have a good senior who is in the psychiatry department.

Seeing that Pei Shiju was indifferent and speechless, Li Dewu laughed and said, "I heard that His Majesty praised the father-in-law's meritorious service in recommending him, maybe there will be a reward tomorrow."

Tsk tsk, the psychology has been completely distorted.

Li Dewu has already broken his can, and he doesn't expect anything in this life. After suffering from Pei Shiju and Pei Shuying's long-term psychological torture, what he hopes to see most is that his abandoned son can defeat Pei Shiju again and again.

After a long silence, Pei Shiju had a long talk, "This old man is really good at knowing people. As early as after the Shandong war, the old man asserted that this son should be a thousand-mile horse."

"On martial arts, Li Huairen is talented in military strategy, good at planning and planning, has a long-term vision, and can drive Yuan Junzhang into a desperate situation without making a fuss.

"Yang Gongren and Chen Shuda congratulated His Majesty in front of the imperial court. It is true that he will become a famous general after Li Yaoshi."

Looking up at Li Dewu, seeing the guy's face getting darker, Pei Shiju sneered, "Three times to defeat the Turks, the first time was a coincidence of death, and the third time, even without the surprise attack led by Zhang Wu'an, the Tang army would have won. The second time, and the most critical time..."

"Li Huairen seems to be taking a slanted sword, but in fact he puts caution first. He charged forward alone and led the whole army forward. In the end, Jieli Khan had no chance to regroup his troops."

"It does look like a famous general."

Pei Shiju said indifferently: "Thesis, Li Huairen's poems and essays overwhelm the city of Chang'an, and the first one can be handed down to the world, which is better than Xue Daoheng in the former Sui Dynasty."

"Different from Xue Daoheng, Li Huairen is good at seeking his life, winning a big victory in the army, but he can make a choice, and he is trusted by saints."

Li Dewu's face became more and more ugly, his sleeves were shaking with his trembling hands, what this old thief said was like stabbing him in the heart!

"In terms of governance, Li Huairen has been in charge of the state for half a year, from the generals in the army to the common people, and everyone is grateful." Pei Shiju sighed slightly, "I heard that he was seriously ill and was bedridden, and many people outside Xia City prayed for him."

"On fame..."

Pei Shiju frowned slightly, "Shandong is making every effort to turn the tide, Chang'an's poems and essays are world-renowned, Ma Yi's snowy night is beckoning, and outside the pass three times broke the Turks. In today's world, who else can surpass Li Huairen's reputation?"

"At that time, the old man said that this son might become the second champion. Now it seems that he chases the barbarians and builds up the capital. It looks quite good, but it comforts people's hearts. His poetic talent is world-class. He also has a certain amount of advance and retreat. He is far away from Huo Qubing."

"Even after thousands of years, history books must have their names, and historians must praise their talents."

"As for you, Li Dewu, if you leave your name in history, I'm afraid it will be a bad name."

Li Dewu's face was livid, he raised his halberd finger, wanted to scold a few words but couldn't say it, if someone praised Li Shan so much, it was like slapping himself in the face from the left to the right.

It is no exaggeration to say that such an heir with both civil and martial arts is the most anticipated by any family leader, a real thousand-mile horse.

Such a thousand-mile horse was mercilessly abandoned by him...

If one day, the matter is revealed to the world, Li Dewu's name will inevitably be engraved on the pillar of shame, becoming a model of blindness.

Seeing the back of his son-in-law leaving in embarrassment and anger, Pei Shiju had a long talk and fell into thought again.

To this day, Pei Shiju regretted it a long time ago. If he knew this, he should have kicked Li Dewu out... I was soft-hearted for a while, or I didn't put Li Shan in my eyes at that time, even though the other party had the trust of a saint.

It does not deny that Pei Shiju's confirmation is the same as last year's sage Li Yuan's words, such a person should be the best in the world.

Li Yuan's words vaguely pointed to the era of the Wei and Jin Dynasties, when scholars were selected by powerful families, so there were some objections from the government and the opposition at that time. After all, Li Shan was not a child of the Li family in Longxi.

Li Mu's grandfather, Li Bin, came from the grassland and guarded Gaoping as a governor during the Northern Wei Dynasty. Since then, this branch has always settled in Gaoping. It was after Li Mujue made Shen Guogong that it was said that this branch was a descendant of Li Ling in the former Han Dynasty.

Because the Li family in Longxi respected Li Guang of the former Han Dynasty as their ancestor, and Li Ling is the posthumous son of Li Danghu, the eldest son of Li Guang, and the eldest grandson of Zhenger Bajing... Pei Shiju guessed in his heart that there was such a saying at the time, it was probably the It is a sign that Li Mu and his descendants are preparing to join the Li family in Longxi.

In other words, if Li Hun hadn’t been condemned by almost all clans in the former Sui Dynasty, with the reputation of Shen Guogong Li Mu and a series of operations, the two generations of Li Dewu and Li Shan should be regarded as the Li family of Longxi. With his talent, he might be able to open another room.

Because the north and the south have faced each other for hundreds of years, and the various tribes of the grassland entered the Central Plains, resulting in mixed blood, so similar things like Lianzong happened frequently in the Sui and Tang dynasties.

Now, Du Zhenglun, a bachelor of Qinwangfu Literature Museum, was born in the Du family of Huanshui. During the Renshou period of the former Sui Dynasty, he and his two elder brothers passed the examination as a scholar... It is beyond description. There were only a dozen scholars in the Sui Dynasty. The governor recommends someone to take the talent examination, and if he fails the ranking, he will be scrapped, and the three brothers are on the ranking together!
When he became famous, Du Zhenglun wanted to join the famous Jingzhao Du family, but unfortunately he was looked down upon, and the one who rejected him was Du Yan's father and Du Ruhui's grandfather.

Later, this Du Zhenglun served as the Minister of the Central Committee during the reign of Emperor Gaozong, and became the prime minister... Uh, later generations said that this ruthless man excavated Du Gu, the ancestral land of the Jingzhao Du family, in the name of dredging the waterway. Fang Zhi.

Since then, Du Ruhui's Nandu team has been in a slump, and there has never been a hero as famous as Du Ruhui.

Pei Shiju thought, from this point of view, it is not an exaggeration to say that the first-class evaluation in the world is not exaggerated even in the previous dynasty, or even in the future.

Such a character, even in the former Sui Dynasty, when famous generals and ministers emerged in endlessly, would surely be able to rise to the top of the world.

Such a person would be heartbroken for the casualties of his personal guards. Using this method to gather people's hearts is good for being kind and benevolent, but thinking about those Jingguan piled up by the Cangtou River, Pei Shiju felt chills in his bones.

If the relationship between Li Shan and Li Jing could be eased with the presence of Master Li Ke, father and son, then the enmity between Li Shan and Pei Shiju could no longer be resolved.

After all, Li Jing's goal is a great victory, making contributions, not letting Li Shan die. Even Li Shan was trapped in Guji Town because of his own fault.

The goal of Pei Shiju and Li Dewu is to try again and again to make Li Shan die justifiably.

This is quite different.

Pei Shiju stretched out his hand to pick out the wick, and the candle light suddenly brightened up. The new emperor will ascend the throne in the future, will Li Huairen just sit back and watch Pei's family continue to enjoy its glory?
Impossible.

If the crown prince ascends the throne, he and Pei Ji must still be prime ministers, with the same weight.

From this point of view, even if there were only some secret connections between Li Shan and the King of Qin before, they should be like each other now.

Pei Shiju's gaze moved to the window, where it was pitch black night. Although the crown prince was still at a disadvantage in the current court situation, he was considered to be on a solid footing, and there was no danger of overthrow.

If you have to wait until His Majesty dies... Pei Shiju's eyes are icy cold. Although the emperor looks wrinkled and old, he still drinks wine and eats meat every day, and even drives horses and shoots in his spare time. .

Can I survive him?
Your Majesty, I can't wait that long.
