The Record of Swordsmen in the Late Sui and Early Tang Dynasties

Chapter 512 Five Hundred Four: The Emperor Passed an Edict to Yangzhou, and Li Yuan Followed the Edict to Practice the Palace

After Chai Shao came back from Duan's family estate, he followed Duan Wuji's instructions and lived in seclusion at home, not seeing anyone he is not familiar with!

All the activities outside were rejected, and this Chai Shao seemed to have disappeared from Taiyuan, and he was never seen again.

That is, Li Yuan sent people to look for him several times, but he refused to go because he was sick!

This Chai Shao is either hiding in the study to read military books, or he is practicing martial arts in the courtyard of the study. Anyway, from now on, he will not leave the door, and the second door will not pass.

As soon as he stayed at home, Chai Shao felt at ease. He read all the books that he didn't have time to read before, and gradually became proficient in martial arts that he was not proficient in before.

This morning, Chai Shao had just finished practicing martial arts and was studying in the study when a servant came in and announced, "Master, your second brother-in-law Li Shimin wants to see you. He has already entered the mansion and he will probably be in your study soon." coming!"

Chai Shao was taken aback when he heard this, and quickly threw the book under the bed, then pretended to be weak and said, "That's my second elder brother, why don't you hurry up and come in!"

Most of the family members in Chai's house don't know that Chai Shao is pretending to be sick!Most of the servants at home thought that Chai Shao was really sick!
After a short time, I saw Li Shimin stepping in from the outside.

When Li Shimin looked at it, he saw that Chai Shao was reclining on the bed!
Li Shimin walked a few steps to Chai Shao, and asked with great concern: "Brother-in-law, what's the matter with you!
I heard at home that you were sick, so I came here to see you!

Brother-in-law, you are fine! "

Chai Shao listened and nodded as he put on a film.

"Second brother, I'm fine, I just feel dizzy sometimes, look at my head full of sweat!

Maybe it's because I've been a little overworked recently!

I think it may be completely healed after four or five months.

Why!Second brother, are you here today, do you have other important things to do? "

Li Shimin smiled wryly after hearing this: "Brother, it's broken, just received the emperor's imperial decree, that stupid king Yang Guang is going to tour the world, and he will arrive at our Shanxi Taiyuan Mansion in three months' time!

He passed down an imperial decree to build him a temporary palace in our Taiyuan Mansion, and the construction should be completed within a hundred and ten days of the decree. How difficult do you think this task is!

If you ask me, Yang Guang, the faint king, has no good intentions!

Although our father and him are cousins, our father and he have enmity!

Is he going to take this opportunity to eradicate my Li family!

If we can't finish the work by the time, if we will be accused of disobedience and disobedience, then if we kill our whole family at that time, wouldn't that be a logical thing?

Besides, can the emperor's parade bring fewer people?
Don't you have to be fully prepared in all aspects?If any one of the tasks is not in place, if we are convicted of contemptuous of the king, then we will not live!

This stupid emperor, you just stay in the capital well, what kind of world are you cruising around!

Why!This matter can worry our father and king badly.

Brother-in-law, I don't think you are seriously ill, you should think of a way for our Li family!
You know, our two families are both hurt and prosperous! "

When Chai Shao heard this on the bed, he broke out in a cold sweat!

This Chai Shao suddenly sat up from the bed.

"Second brother! I think it's better to go to the Duanjiazhuang to find my brother and figure it out.

He can pinch and calculate, and is good at divination. Let him do the calculation for us, and figure out whether this stupid king Yang Guang really wants to kill us or not!If he really wants to kill, then we have no choice but to turn against him in advance.

Second brother, let me tell you, there is no reason to obediently wait for death!

Second brother, what do you think? "

After hearing this, Li Shimin sighed and said, "Oh! There is no other way, but this is the only way.

This Chai Shao jumped off the bed, second brother, just wait, I'll go get the money right away, let's go there right away after getting the money. "

Ho!Chai Shao is really in a hurry today.

The two took 2000 taels of silver, and hurried straight to that Duanjiazhuang'er and rode over.

As soon as they arrived at the door of Duan Wuji's house, they saw that Duan Wuji was waiting for them at the gate!
Duan Wuji said with a smile: "Brother Chai, second brother, let's go! Follow me into the back room.

The younger brother has already predicted that you are coming, so I am waiting for you two brothers here!

Come on, follow me into the east wing, there is no one in that room. "

Then Li Shimin smiled and said: "My dear brother, since you can predict that we are coming, do you know why we are here today?"

"Why don't I know this! Two, let's go!

There is no one in that room, so the three of us should have a good talk. "

After entering the room, I saw that Duan Wuji had already poured the tea, no more, no less, exactly three cups!

Li Shimin was shocked when he saw this!

"Brother, you are really a genius! Even knowing that we are two people visiting today, you already figured it out!"

"What's the matter! This is nothing more than a trick, two brothers, hurry up and sit down!"

Li Shimin looked at Duan Wuji and said: "Brother, tell me! Tell me why we came here today! Let me see if your calculations are accurate today!"

Duan Wuji smiled slightly.

"Second brother, are you here for the emperor's parade?"

Li Shimin was so surprised that the teacup dropped on the table.The tea was spilled on my hands.

"Brother, you are really a god! You are really a prophet! Brother, I admire you to death.

Brother, do you figure out whether our father and son are in danger of their lives! "

Duan Wuji laughed and said: "There is a fear of life, but, impatient, second brother, when the time comes, your father and son will surely turn disaster into good luck, and disaster will be auspicious!

Otherwise, how could you be crowned king, second brother!

If you really lost your head, wouldn't that mean that the divination I made for you before was inaccurate! "

Li Shimin laughed out loud!

"Brother, with your words, I feel relieved, it's a little dangerous, so what are you afraid of!

As long as there is no fear of life, it will be fine!

Now I finally have a bottom line in my heart, brother, if I lead the army in the future, I will definitely take all of you buddies by my side!

If you guys are by my side, then what am I afraid of! "

Chai Shao rolled his eyes and said, "Second brother, this Wuji and his brothers have already told me that if I lead the army in the future, they will definitely follow me!

You said we have agreed, why are you still fighting with me! "

Li Shimin laughed and said, "Brother-in-law, you really know how to choose people!

If there is such a capable person to help you, then you, the commander, wouldn't you be able to command the soldiers while lying down?
good!If that's the case, I won't argue with you, brother.

You can rest easy in the future! "

After hearing this, Chai Shao laughed and said, "What can we do? Who told us that we were destined for a long time ago!"

Duan Wuji looked at Li Shimin and said: "Second brother, the emperor's parade will definitely bring people with him!

My elder brother's brother-in-law is in the tea business. Last year I let him buy ten carts of high-quality tea, which happens to be available to you this time.

As for the price?You let him earn some money.

If you are sending people to the place of origin to buy the top-quality tea now, I guess you won't be able to collect it! . "

Li Shimin laughed out loud.

"Brother, you are really good at calculating! These things haven't happened yet! If you robbed our business in advance, and we just want to save two money, then I'm afraid we can't do it!

However, this is a small matter in the first place, it is easy to say, as long as our father and son are safe and sound, what is such a small matter called!At best, it's just a few extra bucks. "

Duan Wuji laughed and said: "I have no other way to deal with this matter, who told us to be more or less intimate!
If I don't help him earn a little money, how do you think they can live? "

Duan Wuji said to Li Shimin again: "Second Brother, if you want porcelain, you can go to the southeast of Taiyuan City to find it, that place is only a few dozen miles away from our Taiyuan City!

Brother Chai knows that place. "

Li Shimin laughed and said, "Brother, you are really good at this business!"

Duan Wuji rolled his eyelids after hearing this.

"Second brother, look at what you said! Do you like the things at the mouth of our porcelain kiln? Don't pull them down!"

Li Shimin smiled wryly after hearing this, and said, "Brother, your porcelain firing kiln is keeping us close. If you say I don't want your goods, who else will I want?

If I dare to offend you, I will use your words at that time. If you ignore us, it will be bad! "

"Ah? So I'm such a petty person!"

When the two brothers saw nothing, they put down 2000 taels of silver and were about to leave.

Duan Wuji reached out his hand to stop Li Shimin.

"Second brother! If ninety days have passed, please invite that Yuanba to go home!
At that time, he will still be of great use! "

Li Shimin was taken aback.

"My fourth brother is staying well outside the city, this stupid king is coming, why let him out!

Let him out to cause trouble! "

Duan Wuji laughed when he heard this.

"Second brother, let me tell you the truth! Now that Yuanba is in a period of prosperity, his luck is the most prosperous in your family. If he finds out, your family will be invulnerable to all kinds of poisons.

Without him, your catastrophe would probably be much bigger! "

"Really? Since that's the case, then I will write down your words.

If that's the case, I'll just do it, Brother Yu! "

After finishing speaking, the two of them stepped out of the door, got on their horses, and drove straight to Taiyuan City at high speed.

Duan Wuji also knew that they were busy, so he didn't even stop the two of them!

Seeing the two of them galloping away and disappearing, Duan Wuji turned around and walked home.
