Chapter 255
Li Ke's Jie Yue given by Li Shimin was placed in Li Ke's study, and Li Ke's study was in the inner hall, next to Li Ke's bedroom. Even the most heavily guarded place in Yangzhou City.Li Ke put the Jieyue here, and Xiao Yuexian wanted to take it, which is tantamount to the Arabian Nights.

Moreover, Li Ke was still in the palace at this time, even though Xiao Yuexian had the supernatural ability to steal the Jieyue and brought it out of Linjiang Palace, but if Li Ke found out that the Jieyue was stolen, he only needed to inform Huainan, it was only a word. The Jie Yue stolen by Xiao Yuexian lost its effectiveness.

The reason why Jieyue is Jieyue can replace Tianxun hunting, and the power is given to one side, not because of Jieyue itself, but because it can represent the emperor and the court. In addition to the Yue, it is also inseparable from the person who holds the festival.

It can be said that this Jieyue is in the hands of Li Ke, and he is the real king of the southeast, in charge of the mobilization of local soldiers and horses, and the power of life and death, but if this Jieyue is in the hands of others, it is no different from scrap copper and rotten iron , It will only lead to death for nothing.

Therefore, if Xiao Yuexian wants to use Jieyue to accomplish things, she must let Li Ke and Jieyue disappear at the same time. Then, in the name of Li Ke's confidant, she is entrusted by Li Ke to carry Jieyue to perform her duties.

If Li Ke was in the Linjiang Palace, it would be absolutely impossible for him to get the Yue and make Li Ke disappear for nothing, so Xiao Yuexian's only chance was when Li Ke took the festival to go to Chuzhou to supervise the water administration. Only then did Li Ke's defenses relax a little and he found a good opportunity, so Xiao Yuexian also tried every means to go with Li Ke.

In the morning of the next day, although the heavy rain stopped for a while, the sky outside was still dark, with no sign of clearing up.

Li Ke looked at the sky outside the house, and thought that a heavy rain today would be unavoidable, but the water situation was urgent, and Li Ke didn't care about it, so he ordered people to prepare for the road while it was still early.

Sure enough, just as Li Ke was originally worried about, Li Ke traveled northward for only two hours, and before he had completely left Yangzhou, suddenly there was a "bang" thunder, and the originally dark sky was suddenly covered with dark clouds. Turned into pitch black.

When it was supposed to be approaching noon, at this time, except for a ray of light on the edge of the sky, the top of the head has become as if it is about to fall into the night.

"call!"

A moment later, a gust of wind blew through again, mixed with heat, which stung Li Ke's face, and also drove the dark clouds above his head to roll. Obviously, a heavy rain was coming.

"Your Highness, it's going to rain again soon, and the momentum is probably not small, so hurry up and get into the carriage to avoid it." Xiao Yuexian sat in the carriage, looked at the dark clouds outside the carriage, and said to Li Ke.

Hearing this, Li Ke shook his head and said, "No need."

Xiao Yuexian asked puzzledly: "The heavy rain is coming, is it possible that His Highness is going to stand in the open and soak in the rain?"

Li Ke said: "That's right, the soldiers under my king's command are all in the rain, how can I avoid it alone as the commander-in-chief."

Xiao Yuexian looked at Li Ke's stern expression, and was slightly taken aback. She didn't expect that Li Ke's reluctance to take shelter from the rain was actually the reason.

Xiao Yuexian is the daughter of Liang Emperor Xiao Mian. When she was young, she stayed in the Jiangling Imperial Palace, and she was used to her brothers and sisters being arrogant and domineering. She also heard a lot of these so-called high and low words. She only thought that Li Ke was also a child of the royal family, so naturally it was the same. .

Therefore, I was surprised to hear Li Ke's words.

Xiao Yuexian said to Li Ke: "Your Highness is a man of heaven and gold, with golden branches and jade leaves, how can it be compared with ordinary people, why should Your Highness be so self-critical?"

In her opinion, Li Kenai is a dignified prince, the current prince, how dignified he is, how can it be compared by the soldiers accompanying him outside.

After listening to Xiao Yuexian's words, Li Ke replied with a smile: "There are no princes in my Tang army, and there are only brothers Paoze. How can there be such a saying of golden branches and jade leaves. It is Sun Tzu's art of war that says: 'The Taoist, the people and the superiors I agree, so you can die with him, you can live with him, and you are not afraid of danger. 'Father, the emperor is ninety-five years old, and the command of the army is like this, let alone this king?"

Li Ke's words reached Xiao Yuexian's ears, and Xiao Yuexian's heart suddenly trembled.

Xiao Liang is still young, but she already remembers things, but in her memory, whether it is her father Xiao Xian, her elder brother, or even many of Xiao Liang's generals, they still cannot share the joys and sorrows with the soldiers under their command , they all looked superior, completely different from the Li Ke in front of them.

In an instant, Xiao Yuexian seemed to understand why Xiao Liang was defeated, and why his father's 40 troops were so vulnerable.

"The Taoist makes the people agree with the superior, so they can die with them and live with them without fear of danger."

Xiao Yuexian recalled Li Ke's words repeatedly in his mind, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion, how easy it is to truly share weal and woe with the soldiers.

Xiao Liang is just a small imperial court in the south, and even so, not to mention Li Tang who is now in charge of the world.

Li Tang started from Taiyuan. In the troubled times, it is no coincidence that he was able to have the world in just a few years. The victory was already doomed by Li Shimin and Li Ke.

"Your Highness, quickly pick up the coir raincoat."

Xiao Yuexian was still sighing in her heart, Dan'er, who was sitting with her in the carriage, had already taken out a coir raincoat from the carriage, and handed it to Li Ke.

Looking at Dan'er's expression, Xiao Yuexian obviously wasn't surprised by what Li Ke did, and was already used to it.

When Xiao Yuexian looked at Li Ke's coir raincoat, it was no different from the one worn by Wang Fuwei, they were all the same style.

Xiao Yuexian asked Dan'er: "Is Your Highness always acting like this?"

Dan'er said to Xiao Yuexian: "Most of the royal guards under His Highness' command were the envoys when they followed His Highness to the north as hostages. They all lived and died with His Highness. Naturally, His Highness treats them like brothers."

Xiao Yuexian nodded after hearing Dan'er's words, but she had other guesses in her mind.

Xiao Yuexian naturally knew about Li Ke's going north as a hostage when he was young, and Xiao Yuexian also had guesses about Li Ke's ambitions.

Li Ke's use of the inspection field to win over the commanders of the military government is for the purpose of forming a party for personal gain, and using the name of his comrades to win over the subordinate guards is for the purpose of inviting people's hearts. Xiao Yuexian can't see why Li Ke is acting like this.

From this point of view, Li Ke is also an ambitious person, and he is definitely not as virtuous as rumored in the market. If Li Ke finds a good opportunity one day, he may be no different from Wang Mang's generation.

Thinking about this in Xiao Yuexian's mind, a thought suddenly popped up in her heart.

Because Li Ke is the grandson of Li Yuan, Xiao Yuexian has always regarded him as Qiujiu, but Li Ke has forgotten Li Ke himself.

If Li Ke was a loyal and upright person, Xiao Yuexian would naturally respect him, but Li Ke was an ambitious person. As long as they had common interests, the two of them might not be able to get together.

For a moment, Xiao Yuexian looked outside the carriage. Li Ke, who still looked normal in the torrential rain, suddenly seemed to have an extra road in front of him.

To rectify the name of his father Xiao Xian, it seems that the only way to go is to be an enemy of Li Ke.
