Traveling through the early Tang Dynasty starts with hanging

Chapter 738 Returning to Beijing
Ganlu Temple.

Li Yuan, who just came back, looked at Princess Pingyang with a smile, "Now there is still snow, why enter the palace?"

Concubine Wan Gui, who was in charge of the harem, nodded in agreement and said: "Your Majesty said that although you are in good health, but after all, even if you ride in a carriage on a snowy day, what if you don't slip?"

Princess Pingyang responded with a smile, "Father, the Duke of Julu County came to the door yesterday and begged for something."

Li Yuan changed into a light shirt, "Let's hear it."

"At the end of the month, Su Dingfang is going to go to Yongzhou to welcome his relatives." Princess Pingyang said with a smile, "I have to ask for leave... because the schedule was set as early as November last year."

"Oh, I heard Huairen mention it." Li Yuan nodded and said, "It is said that she is the niece of the pharmacist?"

"Yes, Duke Dai is the younger daughter of his eldest brother who died early." Princess Pingyang paused, and then said: "Su Dingfang is going to transfer a group of generals and schools from the Daizhou Army to enrich the Beiya Forbidden Army."

"Huh?" Li Yuan frowned slightly.

"Some of them are from the small army head of Su Dingfang's personal guards, some are from Daizhou's local powerful families, and some are from the Shuozhou army." Princess Pingyang didn't care, and said directly: "Some of the Beiya Imperial Guards were in the process of tackling key issues back then. The old man, some of them were soldiers of the Guanzhong government, and they have made meritorious service in previous wars..."

Li Yuan pondered for a moment and nodded, "No more than 15 people."

Li Yuan can understand his daughter's words. The old man is close to the East Palace. Most of the meritorious deeds were once under the command of Erlang... On the contrary, it is the Daizhou Army, which has nothing to do with both sides. It seems that Su Dingfang is not stupid. To control the Beiya Imperial Army, you must use it with confidence with human hands.

But then Li Yuan realized that it was probably Li Shan's idea for Su Dingfang.

Thinking of this, Li Yuan casually asked, "Where's Huairen?"

"It's been a while since I entered the palace."

Princess Pingyang groaned for a while, then ignored it and said: "Don't talk about entering the palace, he went to the Yamen on the [-]th day of the first lunar month, and he hasn't entered Sinong Temple yet!"

"What?!" Li Yuan was a little confused, "Where did he go?"

"Leaving for Mount Li on the sixth day of the first lunar month." Princess Pingyang would not hide this matter for Li Shan. "It is said that she brings beautiful concubines and maidservants with her to climb the mountain to enjoy the scenery every day..."

After a pause, Princess Pingyang added: "Bringing beautiful concubines and maidservants...was mentioned by Prince Huaiyang. It is said that the Marquis of Qinghe County is quite displeased."

Li Yuan was stunned, he was too crazy, today is February 26, and he has been in Yamen for ten days, yet he still hasn't come back.

"As Minister of Agriculture!" Li Yuan slapped the table, "You actually go out to play and ignore business!"

"Why didn't the censor impeach?"

"Is Shaoqing from Sinong Temple dumb?"

"So unscrupulous, Pingyang, you don't..."

"My daughter has already sent her personal guards. It's Du Xiao. Gu Jizhen lost his left hand in the first battle." Princess Pingyang said blankly, "Huiren said... As Si Nongqing, it is the right time to patrol the place." its responsibility."

Li Yuan was stunned, "He went to Lishan Tang?"

"I'm soaking in hot spring soup every day."

Li Yuan couldn't laugh or cry and cursed a few words, this guy would play tricks and be lazy, the hot spring soup is under the jurisdiction of Sinong Temple.

"Go, call him here." Li Yuan scolded: "I have to go back to Beijing today, or I will ask Qinghe County Marquis to invite him in person tomorrow!"

Princess Pingyang burst out laughing, "Father... It is said that Cui Sheren is reluctant to part with his daughter and refuses to marry Huairen this year."

In the afternoon of that day, Li Shan hurried back to Chang'an City in despair, and as soon as he entered the city, he took a basket of fresh cucumbers to the Temple of Manna.

"Meet uncle."

"This is... courgettes." Li Yuan snorted, "Hot spring soup, melons and vegetables, to recommend mausoleum temples, what do you use them for?"

Li Shangan laughed a few times, "Uncle has lived in the palace for a long time, and the charcoal fire is strong, so it is inevitable that his mouth will dry... This cucumber is the most refreshing."

"Get up." Li Yuan glanced at him, cursing inwardly, he was worried every day in Chang'an, this guy's New Year... his face is rounded!
"You can be lazy!"

Li Shan said aggrievedly: "Uncle, the city of Chang'an is raging like a storm, my nephew is single and weak, it's better to hide..."

Faced with this answer, Li Yuan had nothing to say... Calculating the time, Li Shan should have left for Mount Li immediately after attending the banquet at the East Palace and Chengqian Hall

But isn't that why I asked Su Dingfang to restrain the Beiya Imperial Army?
Li Shan is very familiar with himself, so he asked the palace servants to wash the cucumbers and bring them up, and said with a smile: "Uncle, in a few years, the treasury will be full, and you can make Lishan soup, summer summer, Renshou Palace, winter Go to Lishan to soak in hot springs..."

"The censor is going to write a letter to warn him!" Li Yuan scolded, "Nowadays, the world is initially settled, and there are still Turks spying on it!"

Li Shan smacked his lips, similar things happened before, Yushi likes to do this kind of thing the most, Sun Fujia, the prime minister of Yushi, is a veteran, and was rewarded by Li Yuan for this.

After chatting for a while, Li Yuan suddenly said: "A few days ago, the crown prince recommended Li Shenfu, the head of Lingzhou Road, to be the head of the Lingzhou Road. What does Huairen think?"

Li Shanzhen wanted to reply, "Sit and watch", "This is a major matter for the military and the country. Your Majesty should discuss it with the crown prince, the king of Qin and all the prime ministers. I dare not speak falsely."

"Huiren used to be in charge of the Daizhou General Manager's Mansion, and had contacts with the King of Xiangyi." Li Yuan said softly, "But it doesn't matter."

Li Shan rubbed his nose, "The king of Xiangyi once served as the general manager of the Hedong Road and the governor of Bingzhou, and he was also in charge of it alone. It's just that he defeated the Turks several times in the battles in Hedong last year. I'm afraid that the king of Xiangyi intends to make contributions..."

Li Yuan nodded slightly. He hadn't thought about this. Li Shenfu was driven from Hedong to Lingzhou. Once he left Hedong, he would win a series of victories. If he was appointed as the general, he would probably follow suit, but the problem is that he may not be able to win.

"If the king of Xiangyi is going to be the main general, then he has to choose a general as his deputy." Li Shan said casually, anyway, Li Shimin's side has already been settled, and he is waiting to see the joke in the East Palace.

If it was the original time and space, Li Shimin might not have done this. After all, Li Jiancheng also had the achievements of pacifying Shandong and capturing and killing Liu Heita... But in this life, Li Jiancheng did not.

Li Yuan smiled, it reminded me of the same thing, but the Li God Talisman was not forgiving, and he and Liu Shirang had a quarrel back then, so he had to choose a general who was capable but humble at the same time, and at the same time he couldn't be Donggong. , the direct descendants of Prince Qin's mansion, such a candidate is not very easy to find.

Seeing that Li Yuan was still frowning and thinking hard, Li Shan got up to leave, and suddenly remembered something before leaving, "Uncle, the third crown ceremony in early February, preside over..."

"Father and grandparents, none of the elders in the clan can be found?" Li Yuan was a little surprised.

"Ah."

Li Yuan thought for a while, "Zong Zhengqing, King Zhaojun, will host it for you."

Now it's all settled, Li Xiaogong is the host, Cui Xin is the guest of honor, and Li Keshi is the deputy guest... Although Li Keshi is an official of Tiance Mansion, the relationship between the two is too deep.

As for the praisers, Li Shan thought about it on the way home, but unfortunately Li Daozong is the title of county king, and Su Dingfang is about to leave for Yongzhou to welcome his relatives, so he really has to choose carefully. Li Shan's relationship with Li is the deepest.
