The Book of Heaven

Chapter 433
Li Yuan is aware of his own problems. Although he hopes to let the soldiers under his command enter the Holy City to earn some oil and water from his standpoint, Ma Zheng's meaning is already very clear. Coupled with the fact that Li Yuan is still at large, Li Yuan He had to follow Ma Zheng's advice and let the army rest in place.

After passing the news with the other two armies, the imperial court's order came very quickly. It was indeed an order for Li Yuan's army to return to the empire along the original route. The defense work of the clean-up of the country area.

"Daddy, I'm not willing to go back like this!"

In Li Yuan's tent, Li Yuanji and Li Shimin were discussing with Li Yuan about the imperial court's orders.The so-called discussion is not actually a discussion about whether to implement it, but a discussion of countermeasures. After all, no one can guarantee whether the family will be sent to the guillotine after the withdrawal of troops.

If it is said that the team led by Li Yuan performed well and made the first contribution in the Battle of the Dayue Clan, the imperial court would have taken public opinion into account and would not have attacked Li Yuan. But now it seems that there is almost no room for Li Yuan to perform. The existence of Li Yuan's team can be almost ignored in the present, and it is still unknown how the court will deal with it in the end.

Among Li Yuan's heirs, the eldest son Li Jiancheng did not go out with the army but stayed at home to take care of affairs. Right now, there are only two sons, Li Yuanji and Li Shimin, beside him. Li Yuanji is slightly younger than Li Shimin, but he looks like a Li Shimin's elder brother.

Li Shimin is good at strategy, while Li Yuanji is good at martial arts, especially proficient in the art of killing the enemy in the army, and has the courage to be invincible, so he is suitable to be a general who is fully trapped. Li Yuanji is the vanguard of this army all the way. The combat exploits are also the most.

Because of his personality, Li Yuanji is prone to impulsiveness in actions and straightforward in speaking.This time he went out with great hopes to be promoted to a noble, but it turned out that he was implicated in the matter of Li Yan. Let alone a promoted, whether he can save his life or not is still a matter of opinion. It is normal to feel dissatisfied in his heart .

"Yuanji, don't be impulsive."

Li Shimin had said this in front of Li Yuanji countless times, so that both brothers were used to it, and no one took it seriously.

While comforting his brother, Li Shimin frowned and said to Li Yuan: "Father, according to my son, there are at least three factions in the court, one wants our Li family to have no descendants, the other wants to maintain the status quo, and the other wants to support Shi En." , the only thing to worry about is the mind of the Holy One."

"That's reasonable, and my husband also thinks the same way. It's just that His Majesty's mind is unpredictable, and no one can make it clear."

"There must be someone who can figure out what His Majesty is thinking."

"Oh, who?"

"His Royal Highness Princess Qingping." Li Shimin opened his mouth to say the name, and Li Yuan agreed, but he wanted to deal with Princess Qingping Liu Xu. In the eyes of many people, it was more troublesome than dealing with the Holy Lord. Who doesn't know Princess Qingping? Your Highness is notoriously difficult to deal with.

"It may be difficult for others to speak in front of His Highness, but it is not a problem for someone."

"You mean, Supervisor Ma?"

"It's him! Father, it is well known that Princess Qingping intends to betroth her daughter to Jianjun Ma, and it can be seen that His Highness loves Jianjun Ma very much. It might not work." Li Shimin analyzed logically, while Li Yuan kept nodding, which made Li Yuanji feel a little neglected.

"Okay, I'm going to find Supervisor Ma right now, but I'm afraid it won't be easy to get Supervisor Ma to help. We have to offer some benefits, otherwise, why would he say anything?"

"This matter is actually very simple. Didn't my child just say that there are three factions in the court? Since our Li family will need a backer sooner or later, it is better to choose the owner as soon as possible!"

"Hiss~ You mean... Is he too young?"

"Father, it's not about age! My son learned from Tiance's military general that although Ma Jianjun is young and famous, his kung fu is about to break through the innate realm and become a true martial god, and Zhao Shuying, who is inseparable from him, He is already a god of war, and the rumored holy hall also favors Ma Zheng, even trying to keep Ma Zheng as the next hall master!"

"The Holy Church values ​​Ma Zheng so much, it seems that this man is indeed extraordinary."

"More than that, it is said that Zhuge Mingyue, the eldest daughter of the Zhuge family, has arrived in Tianshui City now, and she is waiting for the Ma Jianjun to go back to hold a ceremony to complete the engagement between the two parties, and then choose a date to get married. Someone once said that Ma Jianjun reached an agreement with the Zhuge family , Zhuge’s workshop takes [-]% of the income.”

"Twenty percent, that's impossible!"

Hearing this news, Li Yuan was even more surprised than when he came here just now. The reason for this is because he knew that Zhuge's Workshop was a place where several His Majesties of the Empire had failed to take over, but now it was taken over by the young Ma Zheng. It can be described as a miracle.

"This is absolutely true. If it's not so wrong, how can the Zhuge family let the pearl in their palm go to Tianshui City eagerly? In terms of status, the Ma family can at least pick [-] young people above Ma Zheng."

When Li Shimin said this, Li Yuan somewhat accepted it, but Li Yuanji still couldn't accept it, and stomped his feet and said, "You also know that his status is low, how can our dignified Li family be loyal to him?"

"Yuanji, don't be impulsive." Facing Li Yuanji, Li Shimin still had a cliché, and then he said: "Of course the imperial court's order must not be violated, but the journey on the road can be urgent or slow, and we still have a lot of time." The most important thing now is to wait."

"Wait for what?"

Li Yuanji asked with wide eyes.

"Wait for Li Yan, die!"

Two stern looks flashed in Li Shimin's eyes. From the point of view of blood, Li Zong is his biological grandfather, but at this moment in Li Shiming's heart, he can't wait to skin Li Zong and get cramps!Although Li Yuan, who was sitting by the side, didn't make a sound, he could see Li Shimin's expressions and actions in every detail.

In the eyes of many people, Li Zong must die. Only after Li Zong's death can the Great Han Empire save face, the current emperor can save face, the Li family in Longxi can leave their burdens behind, and Li Yuan and others can have a way out.Therefore, Li Zong must die, which is the aspiration of countless people.

It's just that Li Zong's escape speed was too fast, so fast that people were surprised. Almost before everyone could react, Li Zong had already escaped from the territory of the Han Empire. Went to the big food country.

The current relationship between the Great Han Empire and the Great Food Kingdom can almost be said to be the worst time because of the former Persian Kingdom.Therefore, those who belong to the Great Han Empire are generally not willing to enter the territory of the Great Food Kingdom, and are easily besieged by the people of the Great Food Kingdom.

Even people in the Jianghu are unwilling to walk over, let alone expect to mobilize the army.Firstly, the mobilization of the army is slow, and by the time it is ready to set off, I am afraid that Li Zong will have already arrived in Damascus. The decisive battle between countries will come early.

As far as the current situation is concerned, the imperial court is not yet ready for a decisive battle with the Great Food Kingdom, so the task of hunting down Li Yan was entrusted to the Ma family in charge of the northwest.For the Ma family, this is both a good thing and a bad thing. It is a good thing if it can be completed smoothly, and it is a bad thing if it cannot be completed.

Ma Daogong specially worshiped the ancestors for help, but half a month had passed since the ancestor worship and asked for help, and the Ma family did not see any movement.
