Man Tanghong

Chapter 164
For example, Li Yuanji, Li Shimin, and Li Xiuning are the three with the highest status, and they can enjoy the most food and wine.

Then according to the level of official position and title, it will decrease in descending order.

In front of Li Yuanji, there were eighteen dishes and countless fruits and melons.

However, Li Yuanji's mind was not on this, but on a middle-aged man not far from his seat.

The middle-aged man seemed to be in his forties, with a well-combed long beard, and wearing a red robe, sitting there without anger. Behind the middle-aged man, there was a young man kneeling, his figure was unusually tall, full of The foot is more than a head taller than Li Yuanji, and behind the young man, there is a strange weapon that is one foot long.

The handle of the weapon is three feet long, and the blade is more than six feet long. The handle is thin and the blade is wide. It looks like the two-handed broadsword in the film and television drama.

However, the tip of the blade is concave with two spikes.

"What advice does His Royal Highness King Qi have?"

As if sensing Li Yuanji's gaze, the middle-aged man looked at Li Yuanji with restless questions.

Li Yuanji smiled lightly: "King Wu is joking, you and I are both princes, how can I call you Your Highness in front of you."

The middle-aged man was Du Fuwei, the King of Wu who was conferred by the Tang Dynasty.

It's just that Du Fuwei is obviously not popular in Datang. It seems that everyone knows that he is going to be unlucky, so no one talks to him.

Li Shimin didn't pay much attention to him.

So he drank alone there.

Behind Du Fuwei is his general and adopted son Kan Leng, and the strange weapon behind Kan Leng is his famous weapon, the Padao.

There are not many detailed records about patting knives in history, only records of Zhang Zhang and two blades.Pai Dao is not Mo Dao, because Pai Dao has extremely strict requirements on users, it has not flourished in history.It is worth mentioning that the three-pointed double-edged sword mentioned in the Song Dynasty's "Wu Jing Zong Yao" evolved from the fusion of Pa Dao and Mo Dao.

Du Fuwei heard Li Yuanji's words, and said with a complicated expression: "Although you and I are both princes, I am not as good as you after all."

Du Fuwei was well aware of Li Yuan's purpose in calling him into the court this time, so he knew very well that he, a prince, could never be compared with Li Yuanji.

Li Yuanji didn't mean to compare with him either.

Li Yuanji is relatively simple, just thinking about Kan Ling behind Du Fuwei.

Before seeing Kan Leng, Li Yuanji intended to take Kan Leng into account, and after meeting Kan Leng, Li Yuanji wanted to take Kan Leng into account even more.

With Kan Leng's body and the weapon Kan Leng used, on the battlefield, it would be an evil star.

There are hundreds of people like Kan Leng under Kan Leng's command.

Hundreds of evil stars can play a considerable role on the battlefield.

"Why does the King of Wu have to belittle himself so presumptuously?"

Li Yuanji smiled and raised his glass, "I offer a toast to King Wu!"

With a smile on his face, Du Fuwei also raised his wine glass, touched Li Yuanji far away, and drank it down first.

Li Xiuning touched Li Yuanji unobtrusively, and said to Li Yuanji unobtrusively: "Why are you talking to him? He's the one my father cares about now.

Didn't you see that Erlang didn't want to get close to him? "

Li Yuanji gave Du Fuwei an apologetic look, and whispered to Li Xiuning: "I just see him as pitiful..."

When he died, those under him were left homeless.

I, Li Yuanji, am used to taking in homeless advisers and warriors.

Li Xiuning glared at Li Yuanji, "Where is he pitiful? Even if he is pitiful, what does it have to do with you? My father obviously has other intentions in calling him back to Beijing this time.

Are you not afraid of being reprimanded by your father if you are contaminated with him? "

Li Yuanji smiled lightly, and scolded him as he went.

As long as Du Fuwei gave Kan Leng to him, not to mention being scolded by Li Yuan, even if he was chased by Li Yuan with a sword again, he would be willing.

"Are you too embarrassed to laugh?"

Li Xiuning was annoyed.

Li Yuanji hurriedly said: "Sister's lesson is that I will never talk to him again."

Li Xiuning gave Li Yuanji a fierce look, but said nothing.

Although Du Fuwei couldn't hear the two sisters and brother whispering, but through the expressions of the two, he roughly guessed what they were talking about, and began to cry secretly in his heart.

Going to Chang'an this time, there are many dangers, and he has nothing to do except complaining in his heart.

When Li Yuan summoned him to the court, he was beside Li Shimin. Li Shimin controlled hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses, and he had no way to refuse.

Now, two brothers, Li Shimin and Li Yuanji, brought a bunch of warriors by his side, and he didn't even dare to run away.

If they escaped, their fate would probably be similar to that of Li Zitong and Xu Yuanlang.

Li Zitong fled to Lantianguan, where he was beaten to death by a petty official.

Xu Yuanlang was even worse. After the defeat, he fled with only a few people and trampled on the crops that the common people had just planted. He was smashed to death by a group of common people with hoes.

When Li Shimin's people found Xu Yuanlang, Xu Yuanlang had already been beaten to the ground by the people.

If it wasn't for a face that could be barely recognized, no one would believe that he was Xu Yuanlang.

"In this expedition, we have achieved great victories in various battlefields. You have worked hard and made great contributions. I would like to respect you."

Li Shimin began to speak after everyone in the main hall drank a few glasses and ate some food and wine.

While speaking, toasting.

Not long after, the atmosphere in the hall became lively.

The counselors raised their wine glasses one by one, reciting poems and composing poems, and the military generals held the wine jars one by one, and gathered together in groups of three or four and started punching.

Li Shimin fully demonstrated to Li Yuanji what it means to be both civil and military.

For a while, he mingled among the advisers, reciting poems and composing Fu with them.

If it is done well, the advisers will praise it, and if it is not done well, the advisers will point it out.

He would never turn his face against others just because his advisers pointed out the mistakes in his poems, but he would come up with another one without hesitation.

After a while, he mingled with the generals again, punching and comparing strength with the generals.

He will not give in to the generals, and the generals will not give in to him.

If you lose, you will admit without hesitation that your strength is inferior to others, and if you win, you will not hesitate to despise the opponent.

It can be seen that Li Shimin knows how to get along with civil and military people.

Li Xiuning watched the second brother show off his might in the hall, and smiled at the fourth brother, "It will be good for you to learn more."

Li Yuanji nodded without hesitation.

He is indeed studying, and studying very seriously.

It is easy for a noble person to put down his figure.

But after letting go of your figure, it's not easy to get along with people with low status.

After all, even if you let go of your figure, you are still a noble person in the eyes of others. When others face you, they will always feel a little uneasy, cautious, fawning, and even some sour contempt .

Only when you eliminate these thoughts in other people's hearts, can you become one with others.

"The minister is late...the minister is late..."

Just when Li Yuanji felt that he had learned a little bit, a few people who were an eyesore to him appeared in the hall.

The leader is Yuwen Shiji, followed by Gao Yaxian, Wei Zheng, Feng Lide and others on the left and right sides.

As the so-called "enemies" are extremely jealous when they meet, Li Yuanji feels unhappy when he sees Yuwen Shiji, Wei Zheng, and Feng Li.

After seeing Gao Yaxian, people feel bad.

Li Yuanji originally wanted to deal with Gao Yaxian coldly, and finally made him disappear from everyone's sight.

But Li Yuan didn't know what he was thinking, he actually conferred Gao Yaxian as his servant of Xiangnan Road.

Li Yuan raised Gao Yaxian's status all of a sudden, so much so that Li Yuanji couldn't deal with Gao Yaxian coldly.

"See Your Highness the Princess, see Your Highness King Qin, and see Your Highness King Qi."

After Yuwen Shi and several people entered the hall, they hurriedly bowed to salute.

Li Shimin smiled and greeted Yuwen Shi and a few others to sit down, and ordered them to serve them wine and food.

Gao Yaxian moved closer to Su Dingfang without waiting for the dishes to be served.

Li Yuanji saw that it was repaid, and immediately said, "Gao Qing, come and sit next to me."

Gao Yaxian could only regretfully give up looking for Su Dingfang and walked to Li Yuanji's side.

Li Yuanji arranged him to be under Du Fuwei's hands 'intimately'.

All of a sudden, the people in the hall looked at Gao Yaxian with more thought-provoking taste.

Du Fuwei is a person who makes no difference between living and dead.

Li Yuanji arranged Gao Yaxian to sit down with Du Fuwei, obviously hoping that Gao Yaxian would also be a person who is no different from being alive or dead.

Gao Yaxian was in the same mood as Du Fuwei, but with a smile on his face, he joined Du Fuwei enthusiastically and drank wine.

A feast for Li Yuanji and Li Xiuning ended with the sound of apology from Yu Chigong and Wang Junkuo.

Li Shimin specially asked Yu Chigong and Wang Junkuo to come forward at the end of the banquet to apologize to Li Yuanji and Luo Shixin.

Yu Chigong compensated Li Yuanji for the crime of offense.

Wang Junkuo apologized to Luo Shixin for the crime of negligence.

Li Shimin originally thought that in front of everyone, even if Li Yuanji and Luo Shixin were unhappy, they could only accept the apology from Yu Chigong and Wang Junkuo.

But unexpectedly, after accepting Yu Chigong's apology, Li Yuanji approached Wang Junkuo first before Wang Junkuo apologized to Luo Shixin.

In front of everyone in the hall, he said to Wang Junkuo: "I heard that your big gun is good. Tomorrow noon, go to the school ground in the city and let's have a competition."

Wang Junkuo turned pale with fright on the spot.

The expressions of Li Shimin, Qu Tutong and others were quite complicated.

Li Shimin wanted to let Li Yuanji and Luo Shixin accept Yu Chigong and Wang Junkuo's apology through this banquet, and completely expose all the previous conflicts between the four of them.

Li Shimin, Qu Tutong and others originally thought that Li Yuanji would embarrass Yu Chigong, and they were also prepared to deal with Li Yuanji's embarrassment.

But unexpectedly, Li Yuanji let go of Yu Chigong lightly, and instead focused on Wang Junkuo.

Li Yuanji went off in person and competed with Wang Junkuo, which was to tell everyone that Wang Junkuo's affair with Luo Shixin could not be done well, and no one could persuade him.
