Traveling through the early Tang Dynasty starts with hanging

Chapter 84 Help
In a manor in the east of Wuling County, people come and go, and the sound of horseshoes and scolding can be heard from time to time at the gate, but it becomes quieter as you go in. There are dozens of people sitting or standing in the hall, but there is no sound, sitting cross-legged Li Yuanji, who was in the first place, had gloomy eyes and a gloomy expression on his face.

Daxingtai, Eastern Shaanxi Province has just sent news that the capital of Yizhou has fallen, and the whole of Cangzhou has rebelled. Li Daoxuan and Shi Wanbao jointly asked for help...not for reinforcements, but for lack of food and grass.

This was a situation that no one expected. Li Daoxuan was Li Shimin's loyal supporter, and he had accompanied him to the Hulao Pass to fight, while Shi Wanbao was recruited by the Prince of the East Palace and regarded as his direct descendant, so he would jointly ask for help.

The reason for this is also very simple. Liu Heitai has been entrenched in the northern part of Hebei Province for a long time after his recovery. As far as the entire Hebei Province is concerned, he has not suffered much impact.

However, after Liu Heikai captured Dingzhou, he went south in a large scale, with sharp soldiers, sweeping most of Hebei. The Tang army was not only short of troops, but also couldn't keep up with the logistics.

However, when the sage Li Yuan ordered the king of Qi to conquer Hebei, he specially ordered that the food and grass for the reinforcements in the east of the river should be taken care of by the east of Shaanxi province, but the king of Qi refused to send troops immediately because of the lack of food and grass. .

In other words, King Qi, stationed around Heyin and Wuling, not only has a large amount of grain and grass, but also holds the grain road to Hebei, not relying on the Yellow River... God knows when the grain and grass can be imported into Hebei road.

Li Yuanji glanced at Wei Zheng who was sitting a little far away, hesitant in his heart, he and Li Daoxuan were about the same age, they had always been at odds, and Shi Wanbao was a direct descendant of the Eastern Palace, he didn't care... But Wei Zheng might not care.

"The king of Huaiyang has 1 elite soldiers, including 4 elite cavalry." Li Sixing, the No. Food and grass are in short supply, and the morale of the army is difficult to stabilize."

Li Yuanji understood what he said, so he transported some food and fodder to perfunctory work, so he didn't need to send troops to help.

According to Li Yuanji's idea, it is best for Li Daoxuan, Shi Wanbao and Liu Heita to fight to the death... Uh, it is better for Liu Heita to win miserably, and then attack Yizhou, Weizhou, and Xiangzhou, so that the Qin Palace will be in the same line lost heavily.

In the end, I went out to pick peaches by myself. Even if I couldn't win the fight, I was afraid that people from Hebei would bite me if I guarded Hulao Pass by myself?
The key to this line of thinking is that Li Yuanji does not see himself as a subordinate of Li Jiancheng, but as an ally.

But this kind of thinking was approved by the staff of Prince Qi's mansion, and even Wei Zheng didn't say anything to refute it... he just muttered in his heart, it really doesn't hurt to sell his father's land.

Wei Zheng got up and walked forward, bowing his hands and saluting, "Your Highness, first send the grain and grass to Xingzhou and Yizhou, and then return to Beijing as a messenger."

The implication is that you, Li Yuanji, can't decide on this matter, whether you want to send troops to help, or you have to ask the prince.

Li Yuanji reluctantly nodded, and said with a smile, "Brother Xuan Cheng wrote the pen, and sent someone back to Beijing alone."

Wei Zheng's eyes flickered. He wasn't just trying to make a draft. These days, he had already made a plan, and he only needed to do it quickly, but he could take advantage of the opportunity to send a favor... Not to mention anything else, the few conversations he had with that young man these days There is also quite a lot of income, and the plan also has its share of credit.

Wei Zheng suddenly turned his head to look at Li Qianyou, "Can I borrow Qianyou's command?"

Li Ganyou was taken aback, glanced at King Qi who was also surprised, stepped out and said with a smile: "But brother Xuancheng please order."

Wei Zheng nodded slightly, and was about to speak when suddenly a person appeared from behind Li Ganyou, and said loudly, "Your Majesty would like to enter Beijing as soon as possible."

"You are..." Li Yuanji saw that this person was tall and straight, and his face was vaguely familiar, but he couldn't remember his name.

"This is Li Dewu, Lieutenant of Chang'an County." Li Sixing whispered in Li Yuanji's ear, "The son-in-law of Anyi County."

Wei Zheng opened his mouth to borrow someone from Li Qianyou, and Li Dewu, Lieutenant of Chang'an County, was the only subordinate of Li Qianyou in the hall, and it was not beyond his duty to volunteer.

Li Yuanji suddenly realized that he also knew about the reunion last year, so he thought about it in his heart, nodded and said: "Then I'll have to work."

Wei Zheng's lips parted slightly, and he wanted to say something, but after thinking about it, he still closed his mouth.

The Pei clan of Hedong is a double-faced family. There are Pei family's children in the East Palace and Prince Qi's residence. Li Dewu's identity makes it difficult for King Qi and Wei Zheng to refuse... After all, he is just sending a letter.

Moreover, Li Dewu is the son-in-law of Prince Zhan Shi Pei Shiju, and his boss is the master of Qi Palace, so this status is also suitable.

Li Dewu is a person who knows how to seize opportunities, not to mention other things, this time he returns to Beijing as a messenger, at least he can meet the prince, and maybe he can get more.

Wei Zheng sighed in his heart, left the manor, went straight to the county office, found Li Shan, told the story in a low voice, regretted: "With your knowledge, plus eloquence, meeting the prince, plus the old man's letter Just mention a few words in the middle, and I will definitely be able to recommend you to be an official..."

There was no expression on Li Shan's lowered face... I saved your life, but you insisted on dragging me into the water?

Old man, old bastard!

In a few years, Li Er will be in power, and you are still a famous official who will last forever, I might...the grave will grow grass!
"That man is a man who knows what to do." Wei Zheng said angrily, "But this man is the son-in-law of Wenxi County Duke of the previous dynasty, so it is not easy for the King of Qi to refuse..."

For the first time, Li Shan was deeply grateful to Li Dewu... unexpectedly someone jumped in front of him, and it was him!
"Brother Lao Xuancheng is here."

"rude!"

Seeing Wei Zheng leaving in a huff, Li Shan had a strange look in his eyes, he beckoned to Zhu Ba, and asked in a low voice, "It was confirmed that the person went in the day before yesterday?"

"I really went in." Zhu Ba gave the affirmative reply No. 12 times in two days, "All the marks I made have moved, so I must have read that letter."

Among the more than 30 people who followed Li Shan to the expedition, only Zhu Bayi knew the inside story.

Li Shan sent Zhu Ba away, and couldn't help but have a weird smile on the corner of his mouth... This pit, in his own eyes, is a pit, but in the eyes of others, it is a way to reach the sky, and Li Dewu really can't be blamed for being stupid.

In the matter of choosing a successor, the inclination of the sage Li Yuan and the important officials in the court is obvious. Although the East Palace is under a lot of pressure, Li Yuan also puts a lot of pressure on the Qin Palace.

Putting aside the possibility of mutiny, the position of Prince Li Jiancheng is difficult to shake.

A few days ago, Li Dewu had frequent contacts with Wei Zheng, but unfortunately the latter didn't catch a cold... Li Shan was anxious for the former.

Therefore, Li Shan tried his best to help... Li Dewu, if you want to get on the thigh of Donggong, you have to have some weight.

The letter placed in the house obviously gave Li Dewu a lot of confidence.

As long as Li Dewu gets on the thigh of the Eastern Palace smoothly... the next thing will be interesting. In the eyes of those who know the inside story, it is absolutely impossible for him to join the Eastern Palace. If he wants to make a difference, besides the Qin Palace, there are other options?
And Pei Ji and the crown prince are on good terms, Pei Shiju is the crown prince Zhan Shi, and his son-in-law also joins the East Palace... Does Li Shimin still have any expectations for the Pei family of Hedong?

Li Shan returned to the house with a smile. Only Li Dewu has enough courage, coupled with good eloquence, is likely to leave a deep impression on the prince, and it should be a matter of course to join the East Palace.

Even Pei Shiju couldn't stop him... Being able to abandon his wife and son to take up the thigh of the Pei family in Hedong is enough to prove that no one can stop Li Dewu's ambition in his official career.

Li Shan was still thinking over and over again,...Suddenly the door was dark, and a big man in soft armor strode into the room.

"Yuwen Hujun."

"Yuwen Hujun."

Li Shan stood up and saluted along with the crowd, glanced secretly, but had no impression.

"The statistical accounts of grain and grass are all your responsibility. Who here is the best at calculating?"

More than a dozen people turned around halfway, their eyes focused on Li Shan who was standing at the back.

"It's you." Yuwen Hujun's voice was slightly hoarse, but his tone was quite unkind, "Go with XX!"

　I just returned last night, and this chapter is still coded on the car, and I will start drafting today.
