Emperor Zhenguan

Chapter 176

Pei Ji's idea was still too simple. Li Jiancheng objected to directly sending troops from Guanzhong to support Li Shimin, because he was worried that this time Li Shimin would make another contribution and he would be able to take the opportunity to eat more soldiers.

However, Dou Wei and Dou Kang not only wanted the king of Qin to monopolize the great achievement of breaking Dou Jiande, but also wanted to increase the number of troops of the king of Qin.

However, Li Yuan was superior in skills, and Li Shuliang was reinstated, and he led the army to support the King of Qin.In this way, the credit for breaking Dou Jiande still belongs to King Qin, but the soldiers and horses belong to Li Shuliang.

The prince was naturally satisfied with this solution.Although Dou Wei and Dou Kang wanted to oppose the restoration of Li Shuliang, they were helpless.

East Palace.

Liu Wenjing smiled and said, "Your Majesty still favors His Highness."

"Not necessarily." Li Jiancheng squeezed the tea cup, his eyes were deep, "Father is beating the Dou family, and he is also beating Gu. Changping King defeated Nanyang, and he recovered in such a short time, but Li Yuan is still behind closed doors. .Humph!"

Hearing this, Liu Wenjing explained: "Your Highness, after all, King Changping is a clan, and it is only natural that he should win His Majesty's Sacred Heart."

Nonsense, isn't Li Yuan the clan?
"Gu knows this, and it's not King Changping who worries Gu now."

"What do you mean, Your Highness?"

"Dou's." Li Jiancheng pursed his lips and said, "There is also Chen Shuda."

Of the six ministers in the Zhengshitang, there were actually three who approached King Qin, how could he feel at ease.

At the side, Wang Gui said in a low voice: "Your Highness is worried, and my subordinates are very clear about it, but they need to be cautious if they want to plan for the Dou family."

The Dou family is not a small family. As representatives of the Guanlong family, their every move is the attitude of the Guanlong family.If you are a little careless in dealing with them, you will be ruined and even get into big trouble.

When Dugu Zhen resigned, Li Yuan did it himself.

"Actually, I think that now is the best chance to deal with the Dou family." Zheng Shanguo said indifferently.

Li Jiancheng asked, "Do you have a solution?"

Zheng Shanguo said: "Your Highness knows that the Dou family and Chen Shuda are biased towards the King of Qin, and His Majesty must also know this. At this time, the King of Qin is away on an expedition, and this is our opportunity."

So, what do you do?
Li Jiancheng asked, "What can you do?"

Zheng Shanguo paused and said with a sneer: "Think slowly, there will always be."

Li Jiancheng: "."

Wei Ting persuaded: "Your Highness, at this time Datang should be united and united to the outside world. If Your Highness is planning the Dou family at this time, once His Majesty finds out, I'm afraid it will be difficult to explain."

Liu Wenjing shook her head and denied, "Otherwise, in fact, with the defeat of Master Liang and the end of the Tongguan crisis, the remaining Dou Jiande will not be able to make waves. When King Changping's support is in place, it will only be a matter of time before King Qin defeats Dou Jiande. After a great victory, it will be even more difficult for us to plan against the Dou Clan."

Hearing this, everyone was silent.What Liu Wenjing said is the truth and cannot be refuted.

Wei Ting sighed: "This matter is not so simple. If you want to move the Dou family, you have to go to the Zhengshitang. Chen Shuda, Dou Kang, and Dou Wei, the three of them communicate with each other, it is definitely not so easy to start. And there is still a wavering The same is true for Xiao Yu."

Although he didn't object to everyone's intentions, he felt that this was not a good time to do it.

Li Jiancheng is also a little hesitant now, because what Wei Ting and Liu Wenjing said make sense.For a while, it's not a good choice.

Seeing this, Liu Wenjing said: "What brother Zheng said just now is very reasonable. The three prime ministers in the Political Affairs Hall are biased towards King Qin, and His Majesty must know this. Perhaps we can take this opportunity to remind His Majesty."

Hearing this, Li Jiancheng's eyes lit up, "You mean, borrow the hand of the emperor?"

Liu Wenjing nodded.

In September, King Changping arrived in Xiangzhou.

Earlier, when Li Shimin learned that Liang Shidu and Wang Shichong had been repelled by the court successively, he was very happy.He was even more happy when he knew that his father was going to send troops to support him.But when he saw Li Shuliang, he suddenly became less happy.

I don't know why, but I still have a stomachache.

"My nephew has met the emperor's uncle." Li Shimin brought his eldest grandson Wuji, Fang Qiao, Hou Junji, Yu Zhining and others to welcome Li Shuliang.

"Shimin, I'm not too late."

"It's not too late, it's not too late, it's time." Li Shimin said with a smile.

After exchanging greetings for a while, Li Shuliang looked left and right, but he didn't see Li Shentong, so he asked immediately, "Where is King Huai'an?"

Hearing this, Li Shimin hesitated for a moment.

"What's wrong? Is he injured?" Li Shuliang's tone was very concerned.

Although he and Li Shentong intended to compete for 'Sage's good younger brother', it was a private contest after all.On the surface, they are still good brothers.What's more, he was taught a lesson in Nanyang just now, and now he is much more obedient.

"The king of Huai'an is resting in the back camp." Li Shimin said.

Li Shuliang laughed, "This guy must have lost the battle and I'm sorry to see me, let me comfort him."

Li Shimin forced a smile, "Uncle, please."

Back camp.

When Li Shuliang saw Li Shentong, he almost didn't recognize him.

Because Li Shentong only has one ear left.

"Shentong, what's wrong with you!" Li Shuliang looked at Li Shentong's empty face in disbelief.

Li Shentong didn't want to see Li Shuliang at this moment, but since Li Shuliang had already come, there was no point in running away.

"Oh, don't mention it." Li Shentong laughed at himself.

Thinking of how glorious it was when he defeated Yu Wenhuaji, how sad it is now.Defeat is second to none, but losing an ear, that's pretty fucking fucked up.

Li Shimin explained in a low voice: "Dou Jiande has a Turkic army under his command, and the emperor's uncle with supernatural powers lost to him, that's why it happened."

Of course Dou Jiande did not have the ability to shoot off one ear of Li Shentong in the tens of thousands of troops. It was the Turkic army that beat Li Shentong like this.

Knowing the ins and outs of the matter, Li Shuliang sighed silently, and comforted him: "Supernatural power, don't worry about the matter in the past. Think about King Yong'an, you are also lucky."

Li Shimin was speechless immediately, if you don't know how to comfort others, don't comfort them.Are you consoling?You are obviously making up for the knife.

Li Shentong pursed his lips and remained silent.

Because, if you say too much, you will cry.

Not long after, Li Shimin held a meeting to discuss how to deal with Dou Jiande.Now with the support of Li Shuliang, his soldiers and horses are even stronger.

"Dou Jiande's army should have [-] troops, plus the tens of thousands of Turkic cavalry, there are already hundreds of thousands of troops. But it is precisely because of this that he will definitely be defeated. The king has already received news that those Turkic soldiers are looting everywhere in Hebei. , the people are already full of dissatisfaction, as long as we continue to fortify the walls and clear the fields, and consume Dou Jiande's food and grass, then he will definitely withdraw his troops."

After Li Shimin finished speaking, he looked at Li Shuliang and asked, "Does the emperor have anything to add?"

Li Shuliang shook his head, "Shimin, I'm here to support you, and everything depends on you."

When he came, his good brother Li Yuan specifically told him not to make any claims this time, and to listen to King Qin's arrangements.

Li Shuliang was as good as he was, and immediately agreed.He also thought clearly that if he could defeat Dou Jiande with Li Shimin this time, then his defeat in Nanyang would be completely reversed.

If it is undefeated, it is also Li Shimin's problem and has nothing to do with him.
