Chapter 36

Xue Ju died, Wei Weiqing Hao Yuan, the first counselor of the Western Qin Dynasty, was deprived of his official position by Xue Renguo and demoted to a commoner.At this time, Xiqin was already a ripe fruit, ready to grab.

Li Yuan made a decree to make Li Shimin, the king of Qin, the marshal, and lead [-] troops to the Western Qin Dynasty.

At this moment, Liu Wenjing used another trump card.

Guozi, king of Yongle, descended to Tang Dynasty.

To say that Guo Zihe, the king of Yongle, was also one of the 36 anti-kings at the end of the Sui Dynasty.He himself was a general of Zuo Yiwei and Wu Yalang in the Sui Dynasty.In the eighth year of Daye, he followed General Zuo Yiwei to escort Goguryeo.Because Lai Huer underestimated the enemy and was careless, he fell into the trick of Goguryeo King Gao Yuan and led [-] Sui troops into Pyongyang City unsuspecting.After nightfall, they were divided and wiped out by Goguryeo Moli Zhiyuan Taizuo. Lai Huer only led less than [-] remnants to escape from Pyongyang City.

It is said that Wu Yalang's general Guo Zihe neither surrendered to the enemy, nor fought hard, and he was not responsible for the defeat.But Yang Guang still dispatched Guo Zihe to Yulin.

In the last year of Daye, there was a famine in the county. Guo Zihe and 18 daredevils captured the county magistrate Wang Cai, cited his crimes of not providing comfort to the people, beheaded him, and opened a warehouse to help the poor.He claimed to be the king of Yongle, established the reign name Chouping, called his father the Grand Duke, appointed his younger brother Guo Zizheng as the minister, Guo Ziduan and Guo Zisheng were left and right servants, and had two thousand cavalry.He united with Liang Shidu in the south, served the Turks in the north, and sent his younger brother Guo Zisheng as a hostage.Shibi Khan canonized Guo Zihe as Emperor Pingyang, but he dared not take on it, so he changed it to Wulishe.

In July of the first year of Wude, Guo Zihe saw that the Tang Dynasty was powerful and sent envoys to Tang Dynasty.However, Liu Wenjing suppressed Guo Zihe's surrender and did not show it until now.

This shows Guo Zihe's surrender, but the meaning is different.First of all, Yulin is located in the north of the Tang Dynasty, north of the capital of Liang Shi, the powerful enemy in the northwest. With Guo Zihe's restraint, even Liang Shi will never be able to attack Datang.In this way, Datang's strategic situation has a lot of room.

At least when Li Shimin led the army to go out, the morale was boosted, sweeping away the previous decadent trend.

After returning from the court meeting, Li Jiancheng frowned even tighter.Once Li Shimin returns from victory, Liu Wenjing will appeal to the court to change Li Shimin, the king of Qin, as the prince, and he will be even more passive.

"For meritorious service, you must make meritorious service!" Li Jiancheng was impatient.

But how to make meritorious service, Li Jiancheng's eyes are darkened.At this time, Li Jiancheng suddenly thought of Chen Ying who was different.Chen Ying strengthened his military training at this time. Could it be that he saw some opportunity to make meritorious service?

Thinking of this, the more Li Jiancheng thought about it, the more he felt this possibility.

Li Jiancheng decided to send someone to invite Chen Ying to the East Palace for a detailed discussion.

"Come on!"

A guard of the Eastern Palace opened the door and entered, bowed and stood: "Please give orders, Your Highness the Crown Prince!"

"Go and invite General Chen from the Second Wei Xun Mansion!"

"promise!"

The guard turned and left.

"and many more!"

Li Jiancheng suddenly felt inappropriate, since he had nothing to do at this time, he might as well invite Chen Ying in person, this would also give Chen Ying the impression of being a virtuous corporal, and make him willing to assist him.

"Show me, go to General Chen's mansion!"

The guard stood there motionless.

Li Jiancheng was taken aback, feeling slightly displeased.

Seeing Li Jiancheng's unfriendly expression, the guard hurriedly explained: "His Royal Highness, I don't know where General Chen's residence is."

"If you don't know, why don't you look it up? You must have his address in the directory of Youshiwei!"

The guards hurriedly searched for Chen Ying's address, and after a delay of more than two quarters of an hour, they boarded the prince's car and drove slowly towards Chen's residence.

……

Princess Pingyang's residence, in the dormitory.

Li Xiuning was wearing a green skirt with a round collar, sitting in front of the bronze mirror, quietly staring at herself in the bronze mirror.A deep helplessness appeared on his face.In the eyes of the world, she is the princess of Pingyang who is loved by thousands of people, has a young hero's son-in-law Chai Shao, and also has endless glory and wealth.

However, no one knew the misery in her heart.

In the eyes of others, her son-in-law Chai Shao seems to be a model of young talents, handsome, personable, polite, well-educated, noble-born, young and wealthy.

As the saying goes, only your feet know whether the shoes fit or not.Whether your husband-in-law is good or not, only you can understand.In the 13th year of Daye, Li Yuan started his army.In order to paralyze the court, Li Yuan sent Li Xiuning to marry Chai Shao in Chang'an.

However, when the news of Li Yuan's rebellion against the Sui Dynasty reached Chang'an, Chai Shao, the son-in-law who had just paid homage to her, left her alone and ran away alone.It’s still a bit humane, leaving a letter telling her, “Your father is going to raise troops to wipe out the troubled times. I plan to go to meet his flag of righteousness. It’s not feasible for us to leave together. The goal is too big. hide."

Well, it is not the saddest thing to stay alone in the empty boudoir on the wedding night, the saddest thing is being abandoned by her husband like her.

Chai Shao abandoned her and escaped alone. This was a thorn in Li Xiuning's heart that could not be removed no matter what.

She will never forgive Chai Shao, for the rest of her life, it is absolutely impossible.

Sudden.

Li Xiuning found that Chen Ying actually appeared in the bronze mirror, especially Chen Ying's almost flawless face, which was still on the Jingyang city wall, with his meticulous thoughtfulness and care.

Perhaps Chen Ying didn't even know that his inadvertent action actually touched the softest part of Princess Pingyang's heart.

Lost for a moment, Li Xiuning stared at it, only to realize that the person in the mirror was still herself, and what just appeared was just her hallucination.

"Hey"

Youyou sighed, feeling endless loneliness and emptiness.

Li Xiuning didn't know what was wrong, but she always thought of Chen Ying's face inexplicably.

Thinking of Chen Ying, a blush appeared on her face.

"It's a pity for this skin!" Li Xiuning murmured, but she couldn't tell the difference, what a pity it was her or Chen Ying.

At this moment, the personal maid hurriedly opened the door and entered.

"Princess, princess!"

"Tweety, you are going to die, it's like calling a soul!" Li Xiuning glared at Tweety, and threatened, "If you dare to do this again next time, I will find you the ugliest husband and marry you !"

"Ah!" Cui'er cried, "Princess, don't do it, slaves don't dare anymore!"

Li Xiuning stretched out her hand to pinch Cui'er's little nose: "I lied to you, tell me, what's the matter?"

Tweety suddenly realized: "General Ma has something urgent to see!"

"Let him in!"

Li Xiuning didn't notice at all how charming and alluring she was at this moment.

Ma Sanbao pushed the door down and knelt down in front of Li Xiuning.

Li Xiuning was stunned for a moment.

Ma Sanbao was the first veteran who followed her when she raised the army.When Chai Shao escaped, news of Li Yuan's rebellion spread to Chang'an. In the Sui Dynasty, Chang'an stayed behind in Chang'an, and the Yin Shishi went all over the city to arrest Li Yuan's family members. She was the No. 1 criminal.The maids and guards around him either fled or were killed by officers and soldiers. Li Xiuning took Cui'er, and the three master and servant fled into the South Middle School of Zhongnan Mountain.He also encountered a group of hungry wolves, if Ma Sanbao hadn't cut his arm and used the smell of blood to lure the wolves away, Li Xiuning and Cui'er would have died at the mouth of the wolves, leaving no bones left.

After Li Xiuning raised his army, Ma Sanbao even took the lead in attacking the city and pulling out the stronghold.Nothing goes wrong.Ma Sanbao and Li Xiuning are called masters and servants, but they are actually relatives.Li Xiuning allowed Ma Sanbao to withdraw Princess Pingyang's money at will, and she also trusted her unreservedly.

Li Xiuning looked at Ma Sanbao kneeling majestically, and felt rather displeased: "Sanbao, what are you doing?"

Ma Sanbao said: "Princess, please save Chen Ying. If Her Royal Highness does not save him, Sanbao would rather kneel and die here than get up!"

After a long time, Li Xiuning came to her senses and said, "What, what happened to Chen Ying?"

"He got into a big disaster and offended people who shouldn't be offended."

Li Xiuning said: "Talk while walking!"

Ma Sanbao followed Li Xiuning on the horse, and while galloping towards the Chen residence, he told Li Xiuning about the feud between Chen Ying and Li Xiaoguang.

After hearing this, Li Xiuning fell silent instead.

Chen Ying's misfortune was really not ordinary. After all, Li Xiaoguang is a relative of the emperor. In terms of seniority, he is Li Yuan's younger brother and his own grandfather.The royal family has the majesty that the royal family cannot be offended, once Li Xiaoguang dies and grabs Chen Ying, there is nothing she can do.

……

In the courtyard of the Chen Mansion, Wei Gao Wanqing of Wannian County has been tortured to death by the guards of the Marquis of Changguang.

Chen Ying was also thinking about how to end it.

Please ask Princess Pingyang to save her. It is really hard to say whether Princess Pingyang has such a big face, because Princess Pingyang is just a princess, not an emperor.

Li Yuan is not a magnanimous person. Back in Chang'an, Master Yinshi was staying behind because he dug up Li Yuan's ancestral grave. Li Yuan not only slaughtered all the men from Master Yinshi's family.If it is said that Master Yin and Li Yuan had a sworn feud, he killed Master Yin because Master Yin sought his own death, but he also killed Dou Jiande without mercy.

Because Dou Jiande has an excellent reputation in Hebei, and he is good at governing Hebei and has strong connections, Li Yuan worried that Dou Jiande would threaten his rule, and he didn't even leave him a chance to be a rich man.

Now that he has provoked Li Xiaoguang, beating Li Xiaoguang is equivalent to slapping Li Yuan in the face, can Li Yuan let him go?

Just as Chen Ying was thinking about it, Su Hu, the magistrate of Wannian County, the rightful lord, appeared.

In fact, Su Hu had to show up too. Now that things are so big, he can't pretend to be cowardly now.In desperation, he just asked his uncle, General Wuwei, Dou Xi to come out.

Although Dou Xi is a general of Wuwei, but he is in Chang'an, and he doesn't have a soldier talisman to transfer troops privately. He can only mobilize his personal guards at most.Fifty elite military guards surrounded Chen's mansion tightly.

These military guards are not the brave infantrymen led by Gao Wanqing.

"Chen Ying, let go of Marquis Changguang, and don't cause trouble for the villagers."

Youdao is that enemies are extremely jealous when they meet each other. If it weren't for Su Hu, why would Chen Ying be in the position he is today?

Chen Ying said with red eyes: "Suhu dog thief, you still dare to come!"

"Death is death!" Chen Ying thought, as long as Li Xiaoguang was killed, Su Hu would definitely be held accountable.

At this moment, there was a long shout: "His Royal Highness Princess Pingyang has arrived!"

Whether it was the onlookers or the soldiers of the Wuwei Army, they were simply and roughly pushed away by the guards of the Pingyang Princess Mansion. The soldiers of the Wuwei Army saw that they were the female guards of the Pingyang Princess Mansion, and immediately drooped their heads and dared not make a sound.

Li Xiuning pushed away the crowd, walked up to Chen Ying, and reprimanded him sharply: "Chen Ying, have you had enough trouble?"
