Man Tanghong

Chapter 329 Li Yuan's Attitude
Li Shentong was taken aback for a moment, and said with a look of surprise: "Emperor Zan is back?"

Li Yuanji also looked surprised.

Zan Huanggong was talking about Li Yuanji's cheap uncle Dou Gui.

Dou Gui's current title in the Tang Dynasty is the Duke of the State of Bing. The official is the inspector prince Zhan Shi, and Yizhou Daoxingtai Zuo Pushe, who is in charge of Yizhou's affairs.

After the reorganization of the Hushi Mansion and the General Manager's Mansion, it should be promoted to the governor of Yizhou.

The reason why Dou Gui is called Zanhuanggong is because when Li Yuan raised his troops in Jinyang, Dou Gui led his army to take down Yongfeng warehouse, which provided a generous guarantee of food and grass for Datang to enter Guanzhong.

As soon as Li Yuan was happy, he took the lead in conferring the title of title on Dou Gui.

He was granted the title of Duke of Zanhuang County.

Dou Gui was also the first among the nobles of the Tang Dynasty to be conferred the title of Li Yuan.

In order to show their respect for Dou Gui, the first honorable man in the Tang Dynasty, most people like to call him the emperor.

Over time, it cannot be changed.

Even though Dou Gui's title has been promoted to the rank of Duke, some people still respectfully call him Duke Zan.

In addition, Dou Gui is also the cousin of Empress Taimu of the Tang Dynasty. Although he is a little far away, he is the current leader of Empress Taimu's relatives and the head of the third house of the Dou family in Henan.

Today's Dou's Sanfang in Henan has several state princes and several county princes, and their energy is quite strong.

Dou Gui himself has always been deeply trusted by Li Yuan since he followed Li Yuan.

It's just that his temperament is a little straight, a little jealous, and a little bit of death.

In Yizhou for two years, the most he did was whip some idlers to work in the fields.

It is said that under his politics, there are not many idle people in Yizhou.

The people in Yizhou praised him for his ability to restrain the turbidity and promote the clear.

Li Yuanji always felt that if he left Dou Gui to later generations, he should be able to break hundreds of whips a day.

"I'm just guessing, and I don't have any evidence."

Li Xiaogong nodded when he heard Li Shentong's words, then shook his head again.

Li Shentong stared and shouted, "If it's not him, who else could be? Only he can help the prince save the situation."

Li Xiaogong was puzzled and said: "If it's really him, why hasn't there been any news about it?"

Dou Gui is no small person.

After returning to Beijing, it is impossible not to leak any rumors.

After all, Dou Gui is now in Datang, representing not only himself, but also the Dou family, the relatives of the late empress dowager.

The Dou Clan has several nobles, and no one dares to ignore the actions of the Patriarch Dou Gui.

Li Shentong glanced at Li Xiaogong and snorted: "Why else, the prince must have tried every means to hide his tracks."

As for why he hid it, Li Shentong didn't say.

But everyone in the gazebo knew it in their hearts.

It must be for the Yin people.

Li Xiaogong pondered and said: "But even so, it is impossible for them to hide the truth from the saint. Why didn't I hear any news when I was with the saint?"

Li Shentong opened his mouth, but did not speak yet.

Li Yuanji suddenly interjected, "Should have invited my father, my father acquiesced in this matter."

Dou Gui is not a small person, without Li Yuan's tacit consent, it would be impossible for him to return to Beijing, and it would be even more impossible for him to remain silent after returning to Beijing.

Chang'an City is not a place where secrets can be hidden.

Not to mention a big living person that everyone is looking forward to.

When Li Xiaogong and Li Shentong heard this, their expressions changed, but they soon returned to normal.

Li Yuanji knew why they changed their faces.

For such an important person as Kou Gui, Li Yuan would acquiesce in his return to Beijing, and would acquiesce in his hiding in the dark to help Li Jiancheng.

This says a lot.

Li Xiaogong and Li Shentong, who are in the whirlpool, can easily guess what these problems are.

This means that Li Yuan began to support Li Jiancheng to suppress Li Shimin.

This also means that Li Yuan has begun to firmly support Li Jiancheng as the heir.

For this reason, Li Yuan did not hesitate to introduce powerful foreign aid to Li Jiancheng.

This is unfair to Li Shimin.

No one knows what Li Shimin would do if he knew that Lao Tzu, who had always been eccentric, would become even more eccentric.

However, what is certain is that as Li Yuan becomes more eccentric, the relationship between Li Shimin and Li Jiancheng will also become worse and the struggle will become more intense.

"Since the saint has made a move, let's not talk about him, so as not to cause trouble to the upper body?"

Li Shentong spoke suddenly with a confused expression.

Li Xiaogong nodded thoughtfully.

Li Yuanji looked at Li Shentong, then at Li Xiaogong, and said: "We have to find out if he has returned to Beijing, right? If he really returns to Beijing, we should make more preparations.

Otherwise, if we are somehow dragged into the water by him, then we have nowhere to cry. "

Li Shentong and Li Xiaogong frowned together.

That's the reason, but they really don't want to interfere in this matter.

Seeing that the two were hesitating, Li Yuanji said again: "If I'm dragged into the water, that's all.

No matter how hard he was, he didn't dare to do anything to me under my father's nose.

You are not sure. "

No matter how capable and trusted Dou Gui is, he is also Li Tang's courtier.

If he dared to deal cruelly to Li Tang's direct prince, let alone a distant uncle, even if he was a real uncle, Li Yuan would let him be buried with him.

So, Li Yuanji doesn't have to be afraid of Dou Gui.

Li Shentong and Li Xiaogong frowned even more when they heard Li Yuanji's words.

Li Shentong glanced at Li Xiaogong, "Then check it out?"

Li Xiaogong said in a deep voice: "I heard that Emperor Zan dislikes idlers the most. Let's send people to check the places he used to like to see if any idlers have been captured. It should be rewarding."

Li Shentong nodded thoughtfully, "Then do this."

Li Yuanji smiled and said: "I found it, remember to tell me."

Li Xiaogong and Li Shentong glared at Li Yuanji together.

I've never seen such a shameless person.

Li Yuanji, as if he didn't see the eyes of Li Xiaogong and Li Shentong, cheerfully invited them to continue drinking and drinking tea.

After drinking until evening, Li Shentong found an excuse and slipped away with Xie Shufang.

Li Xiaogong got drunk and fell asleep at Jiulongtan Mountain at night.

Before going to bed, I tossed the four little guys, Li Chengqian, for a while.

The reason is that Li Xiaogong said that he was not used to sleeping on the bed in the side room, and also disliked that the side room was too cold, so he insisted on occupying the big bed in the main room.

Li Chengqian's four little guys were used to sleeping on the big bed in the main room, and they refused to give up no matter what.

Then Li Xiaogong tyrannized him with his ears and let him go out.

"They are still children, what do you care about with them?"

Seeing Li Xiaogong fiercely driving the four teary-eyed little guys out of the main room like a bully, Li Yuanji said dumbfounded.

Li Xiaogong snorted and said: "You can't get used to their stink. The bedroom of the head of the family will be occupied by a group of children, it's too unruly."

Li Yuanji added a few charcoals to the brazier, picked up the scroll and flipped through it, and said angrily, "Are you accusing me of not being able to educate children?"

Li Xiaogong sat down in front of the brazier boldly, and said carelessly: "You just don't know how to educate children."

Li Yuanji glanced at Li Xiaogong, "Then I'll send them to your house and let you educate them?"

Li Xiaogong shook his head without hesitation.

Fortunately, Li Ling, Li Xu, and Li Chengye said that Li Chengqian was a hot potato, and he would never let Li Chengqian come to his house.

Li Yuanji said indifferently: "Since you don't want to teach, then don't blame me for not teaching well."

Li Xiaogong glared at Li Yuanji, "I can't see you misleading my son."

Li Yuanji put down the book in his hand, hehe said with a smile: "I think you are jealous, jealous that someone sent their son to me to teach, but no one sent their son to your house to teach you."

Li Xiaogong became annoyed all of a sudden, "I will be jealous of you? What do you have to make me jealous? Can people be jealous of the matter of luring wolves into the house?"

Li Yuanji just smiled and didn't say much.

Li Xiaogong blew his beard and stared for a while, then suddenly said: "When Uncle Wang was here today, there are some things I didn't tell you."

Li Yuanji looked at Li Xiaogong suspiciously.

Li Xiaogong said in a deep voice, "What is the relationship between you and Li Yi?"

Li Yuanji asked suspiciously, "Why do you ask this?"

Li Xiaogong said with deep eyes: "Li Shou seems to have joined your eldest brother's family. If you have a close relationship with Li Yi, then you should be on guard against Li Yi."

Li Yuanji was stunned for a moment, but he didn't feel any surprise.

Li Yi was originally going to fall for Li Jiancheng.

Li Jiancheng suffered a big loss in raising private soldiers, and it is impossible to raise private soldiers in the future.

If you want to gather soldiers and horses again, you can only think of other ways.

Li Jiancheng should not be able to use Ren Gui and Dou Gui's troops.

Because Ren Gui was sent to him by Li Yuan, and he bears the obvious brand of Li Yuan on his body, so he cannot be regarded as his confidant, so he dare not use Ren Gui's people.

Kou Gui can be taken as a confidant, but Kou Gui is a righteous person, he hates evil like a hatred, it is impossible to help him hurt his brother, so he dare not use Kou Gui.

Under such circumstances, Li Yi turned to Li Jiancheng and provided Li Jiancheng with powerful soldiers and horses. He could gain Li Jiancheng's trust as soon as possible, and he could also be cited as a confidant by Li Jiancheng in a very short period of time.

So Li Yi chose to fall to Li Jiancheng at this time, which was expected by Li Yuanji.

"So, the changes in my elder brother's palace are very likely related to Li Yi?"

Li Yuanji looked at Li Xiaogong and asked questions.

Li Xiaogong was stunned for a moment, "You expected that Li Yi would betray you? Your relationship with Li Yi is not that good?"

Li Yuanji said frankly: "I don't have much relationship with Li Yi from the beginning to the end."

Li Xiaogong immediately said: "Then Li Yi gave you so many warriors?"

Li Yuanji said bluntly: "It was just a transaction. I gave Li Yi what he needed, and he gave me what I needed. There is not much connection between us."
