Traveling through the early Tang Dynasty starts with hanging

Chapter 74
After a meal of food and drink, Gao Xing called his entourage to pay the money, "It's my cousin's heart, unless Brother De Mou and Brother Li hold a banquet next time, I definitely can't choose Dongshan Restaurant... my brother's half a month's expenses It's all gone!"

"It will be cheaper for you in the future." Li Shan said with a smile: "I will give you a penny every time."

While talking and joking, several people stood up and prepared to leave, Li Shan called Li Kai, "Let's go first, I'm going to settle accounts with Brother Demou today, just in time for Brother Demou to learn abacus."

"Isn't this the secret skill of Danyang Fang?"

"Brother Demou still needs to learn?"

Li Kai laughed and cursed a few words and went back to the private room, and sat down slowly, "It's always been ten days, and it's not that time yet."

"It's just an excuse." Li Shan asked the assistant to pour two glasses of water, rinsed his mouth and asked, "Brother Demou just mentioned that Uncle Ling will go out with the King of Qi."

Li Kai pointed at Li Shan and said with a smile: "It's really Linglong's thought, it's true, Fifth Uncle's family has already started preparations, and may call you to accompany him."

Li Shan didn't ask "Can I not go?" This stupid question, but asked: "Does Uncle Ling know the inside story between me and Li Dewu?"

"I definitely don't know." Li Kai shook his head and said: "I have asked my father and mother, and even my elder brothers don't know about it. I have tried it secretly for my brother, and my brother Fang, eldest grandson Dalang, and Gao family Dalang don't know about it. Only King Qin and Princess Qin know about it."

"As a county lieutenant, Li Dewu should accompany you." Li Shan sighed, "We still have to meet."

Li Kai rubbed his nose, "Mother likes you very much, and specially entered the palace today to meet Princess Qin."

Li Shan's eyes lit up, and he was handsome, which was good.

Glancing at Li Shan who was full of hope, Li Kai smiled wryly and shook his head but didn't say anything.

Li Shan's mentality exploded, and he tried his best to climb Li Shimin's thigh, but he didn't appreciate it.

It's fine if you don't appreciate it, but you still insist on stuffing me in Prince Qi's mansion.

Li Shan was furious, but he didn't think about it capriciously... I am a time traveler, believe it or not to assist King Qi to lie to you? !
This kind of thinking is flooded in the head, if it is before Li Tang Jianguo, there is still a possibility.

Five years of Wude, unless Li Shan brought a modern full-staffed division, he had to be equipped with sufficient ammunition depots...

"Is it possible that you want to use the room?"

"How is that possible!" Li Kai chuckled, "You have been in close contact with the children of Prince Qin's residence, even if His Highness wanted to use it, he would not choose you!"

But Li Shan was thoughtful, and said slowly: "The Pei family in Hedong doesn't know about it yet, and even Li Dewu is still kept in the dark. If Li is under the command of King Qi...or even flexes his muscles under the prince..."

Li Shan's implication is that when Li Shimin reveals the news... Will there be a rift between Donggong and Pei's?
possible.

It's just possible, and it's enough for Li Shimin to do it. After all, the cost of doing this is too low.

The most tragic ending is that if Li Shan flexes his muscles under the crown prince, Li Shimin releases the news...the crown prince is likely to deal with Li Shan to ease the dissatisfaction of the Pei family in Hedong.

As for Li Shan himself, he may be dying, or he may be dead... who knows?
Who cares?

Li Shan didn't know how far his guess was from the truth, but this was the first thought that came to his mind.

So sinister!

But then, Li Kai ruthlessly interrupted Li Shan's reverie, "Impossible."

"Why is it impossible?"

"You must be able to be reused by King Qi and the Crown Prince?" Li Kai said with a smile: "If you don't, even if the matter is leaked, there will be no rift between Donggong and Pei's family."

"Uncle Wu mentioned last night that he just asked you to go along with him to take care of the accounts. Daxingtai, Shandong Road, has been in a mess since Yun Guogong died of illness."

"It has nothing to do with King Qi at all."

Li Kai coughed twice, "These days, Prince Qi's mansion recruits a lot of celebrities, including the Qinghe Cui family, the Taiyuan Wang family, and..."

"Cough, cough, cough." Li Shan interrupted with a few coughs, and cast a resentful look.

Since it didn't involve too deep things, Li Shan held the hope in case, and finally asked, "Can I not go?"

"Of course." Li Kai said bluntly, "Just tell Uncle Wu the inside story."

Li Shan blurted out, "Such a battle is about to open your eyes, and you should join the army!"

Just kidding, Li Ganyou is the confidant of King Qi, he really said everything, maybe Pei Shiju will know the next day.

When the Hedong Pei family makes a move, will Li Shimin carry it for him?

It's easy for me to have no foothold in Chang'an.

After leaving the restaurant, Li Shan went straight back to Zhujiagou, sitting in the carriage with a gloomy expression on his face.

Drift with the tide, the rain beats the duckweed.

Li Shan knows that in comparison, his weight is too light, so he can only accept this fact.

But Li Shan is still not reconciled, there is always a way, there is always a way.

Although he doesn't know what will happen in the future, Li Shan feels that he can act first, no matter whether it is good or bad, at least he will not dance with the baton of fate.

As a time traveler, Li Shan has such qualifications and confidence.

Of course, this requires an opportunity.

Chengqian Palace at this moment.

Li Shimin leaned lazily on the couch, the four-year-old eldest son Li Chengqian walked up and down the side of the couch, and the two-year-old second son Li Tai crawled slowly on the couch.

Sensing her husband's displeasure, Princess Qin picked up Li Tai and said softly, "Your husband is worried about Hebei?"

Li Shimin's eyes wandered, and he said casually: "Sanhu is brave on the outside and timid on the inside, so it may not be able to sweep Hebei down."

"Poor Guanzhong government soldiers, I'm afraid my husband will have to do his best to turn the tide." Qin Wangfei said a few words of consolation, and then changed the topic, "Today, when the third cousin entered the palace, she mentioned Li Shan of Dongshan Temple."

Li Shimin came back to his senses, and said with a smile: "Let Sanhu go on."

"Li Shan looks humble, but he is really arrogant. How can Sanhu surrender!"

"Let's talk about that old man Pei Ji..."

Discussions surrounding the conquest of Liu Heita had lasted for less than half a month. Pei Ji and Li Jiancheng sang together, and Li Yuan followed suit and handed over the post of coach to Li Yuanji.

Glancing at his wife, Li Shimin sat up, "This person must be under Gu's command, but it's not right at this time."

"Back when Daoxuan was young, he was alone in Taiyuan. You and I took care of him. Now he is the chief of the Hebei Road Army..."

"You write a letter to Daoxuan and let Li Shan take it."

Seeing his wife writing a letter, Li Shimin began to lose his mind again. For Li Shan, he first tried to use this to judge the political stance of the Pei family in Hedong.

Unexpectedly, the Pei family in Hedong didn't know anything, Li Shimin was a little disappointed, he really appreciated Li Shan, but he had always been wary of the two-faced Pei family, so he didn't accept Li Shan as his sect.

But after returning from this expedition, Li Shimin's thoughts gradually changed.

For more than a year, Li Shimin has never given up the hope of taking over the East Palace through legal and compliant means, but what he did not expect is that most of the important officials in the court do not want to see the East Palace change hands.

Among them, Chen Shuda and Xiao Yu insisted on justice, Feng Deyi was obsessed with flattery, Yuwen Shi was too light, and the current Prime Minister Pei Ji was most aimed at Li Shimin.

Li Shimin thought in his heart that although Li Shan is famous now, he is still too immature, and he will have to wait at least next year if he wants to call him under his command.

Because Li Shimin knew that Li Shan wanted to use the imperial examination to become an official... Although he was well-known, he was not a child of a family, at least not on the surface.

Li Shimin was not worried that Li Shan would be recruited by Li Yuanji and Li Jiancheng.

Pei Ji and Li Jiancheng had a close relationship, and Pei Shiju was Prince Zhan's affair, so it was impossible for Li Shan not to know that the only way to go to Qin Palace was.

Li Shimin could vaguely sense that there was a tacit understanding between himself and Li Shan.
