Man Tanghong

Chapter 897 Invite King Qin out of the mountain!
Inside the hall, the front yard.

Li Shimin sat cross-legged on a wool blanket, with a small fox fur knee pad on his knees, holding a volume of unknown book, flipping through it carelessly.

Beside him, an elderly eunuch was talking in a low voice, he nodded from time to time, gave some instructions, and then signaled the other party to continue.

The eldest grandson sat not far from him, on a small square bed, in front of him was a short long table with a few books on it, holding his newly born daughter in his arms, staring at Li Chengqian, Li Chengqian, and Li Chengqian. Ke endorsed, the four concubine daughters of Xiangcheng, Runan, Nanping, and Sui'an in history, plus a Li Lizhi, practiced calligraphy in a neat manner on one side. Li Tai, who had not yet reached the official enlightenment time, was jumping. Bouncing around the two elder brothers, stumbling and repeating the words they had memorized.

I don't know what's so good about learning from people's memorization. Li Tai giggled after memorizing a few sentences, as if he was doing something very interesting.

"Second brother, second sister-in-law..."

Li Yuanji took the initiative to come forward to salute.

Li Shimin didn't want to talk to anyone, so he rolled his eyelids and continued to listen to the eunuch.

The eldest grandson greeted Li Chengqian and Xiangcheng to take the younger siblings to play, and then hugged the newly born Chengyang and came forward to salute, "Uncle, you are polite..."

Then he ordered the female officer to watch the seats, while he leaned over to Li Shimin's side and muttered something, as if to warn Li Shimin not to show his younger brother's face.

Under her persuasion, Li Shimin reluctantly waved his hand to the eunuch, put down the scroll in his hand, stared at Li Yuanji angrily and said, "Are you going to conquer the Turks?"

Li Yuanji sat down in front of Li Shimin generously, and said with a calm smile: "Second brother really knows things like a god..."

Li Shimin smiled and said: "Is it because I predict things like a god, or do you go to the Three Treasures Hall for everything?"

Li Yuanji said with a smile: "Second brother, do you want me to come every day?"

Li Shimin said disgustedly: "Forget it..."

If Li Yuanji ran to Chengqing Hall every day, then everyone in his hall would be scared to death.

After all, if a person in power shows closeness to a person who threatens him, then that person is not far from death.

"Why did the second brother guess that I was going to conquer the Turks?"

Li Yuanji asked curiously.

Li Shimin rolled his eyes and said nothing.

Li Yuanji suddenly realized, but he forgot that Li Shimin now has a channel to communicate with the outside world, and he can hear the rumors in Chang'an City.

In order to save face, Li Yuanji smiled dryly again: "Then the second brother thinks that I came to you this time, so why?"

Li Shimin still didn't respond, but helplessly told his eldest grandson: "Guanyin servant girl, go and help me pack my things. I will go out with the army in a few days."

The eldest grandson stood still, hesitant to speak.

Li Shimin waved his hands and said, "Go..."

The eldest grandson still didn't move, but turned his head to the side, gritted his teeth and said to Li Yuanji: "Fourth brother, will you hurt Erlang?"

Li Yuanji was stunned, and asked suspiciously, "Why would sister-in-law ask such a question?"

The grandson didn't say anything.

She can ask this question is already the limit, and she is a little bit speechless if she asks more.

It's not that she's shy, or scared, afraid to speak.

But it is one thing to understand some words, but another thing to say them.

Through the eldest grandson's reaction, Li Yuanji roughly guessed what the eldest grandson was thinking, and immediately said: "Sister-in-law is afraid that I will kill the donkey?"

The Turks are the great enemy of the Tang Dynasty, and the only opponent who can fight against the Tang Dynasty.

Once the Tang Dynasty conquered the Turks, the Tang Dynasty would no longer be invincible and invincible in the world.

At that time, people like Li Shimin who are threatening and useless can be eradicated.

After all, a person is a threat to you and you can't use it yet, so why do you keep him?
Wasting rice?
The eldest grandson glanced at Li Shimin, saw that Li Shimin rolled his eyes in a speechless manner but did not speak, so he couldn't help but nodded.

Li Yuanji looked at Li Shimin and said with a smile: "It seems that sister-in-law really cares about you."

Li Shimin snorted and said, "You want to talk?!"

Li Yuanji looked at his eldest grandson again and said with a smile, "Why does my sister-in-law think that I will kill the donkey?"

The eldest grandson gritted his teeth and did not answer, but asked instead: "You don't know how?"

Li Yuanji said with a hearty smile: "If I really want to hurt my second brother, I'm afraid my second brother won't live until now!"

I killed him when I was at Xuanwumen...

The eldest grandson saw that Li Yuanji didn't seem to be telling a lie, and saw that her husband had become even more speechless. He immediately realized that he had judged the belly of a gentleman with a villain's heart, and his face turned red immediately after people saw the joke for no reason. He glanced at Li Shimin and said, "You already knew that, didn't you?"

Li Shimin rolled his eyelids and said nothing.

That's nonsense.

If Li Yuanji intends to hurt him, why keep him until now?
Do you feel uncomfortable for yourself, or do you think you sleep too hard at night?
He is capable, capable of writing and martial arts, and can help Li Yuanji do many things.

But that doesn't mean he's irreplaceable.

In terms of writing, Li Gang, Pei Ju, Xiao Yu, Chen Shuda, Fang Xuanling, etc., who can't succeed him?

In terms of martial arts, Li Shentong, Li Xiaogong, Li Shiji, Li Jing, Su Dingfang, etc., which one can not replace him?

Someone can succeed him, someone can replace him.

If Li Yuanji wanted to kill him, he could kill him at any time, so there was no need to keep him as a threat.

So he is still alive, not because Li Yuanji can't kill him, but because Li Yuanji doesn't want to kill him.

That being the case, the Turks will never be destroyed, and Li Yuanji will not let go of his grind to kill a donkey, so why worry about it?

"Then why didn't you remind me?"

The eldest grandson glared at Li Shimin a little angrily and asked.

Li Shimin still did not speak, very cold.

The eldest grandson didn't chase after him anymore, but just gave Li Shimin a vicious look, and went to help Li Shimin prepare things.

After the eldest grandson left, Li Shimin sighed a little, and said in a complicated way: "I have been kept in Chengqing Palace by you, and you still don't trust me?"

Li Yuanji smiled lightly and did not speak.

That's nonsense.

You are a famous emperor through the ages, and I led the army to go out and put you in the rear. Isn't that waiting for you to follow my back?

Although all the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty are under my control now, you still have the prestige of ever victorious commander in chief.

If you come to the Xuanwu Gate while I'm not here, won't I become a traitor and a target of crusade by the whole world? !
Seeing that Li Yuanji didn't speak, Li Shimin immediately felt very bored, and said in a dispirited voice, "Is it my place that came first, or the elder brother's place first?"

Li Yuanji said with a smile: "This time without elder brother..."

Li Shimin was stunned for a moment, then stared in vain.

"Without elder brother?"

Li Yuanji nodded.

Li Shimin's expression changed again and again, and he said in an erratic tone: "It turns out that I am a bigger threat to you than Big Brother..."

Li Yuanji didn't speak.

Li Shimin stared at Li Yuanji, and said seriously: "Aren't you afraid that after we leave the court, the elder brother will suddenly walk out of the East Palace and take over the power of our Great Tang again?"

Li Yuanji chuckled, "How do you know that I didn't do this to lure my elder brother into taking the bait?"

In history, there are many examples of this kind of leading snakes out of their holes.

Li Shimin stopped talking for a while, and didn't want to talk.

Co-author, you didn't treat me like a fish, and didn't leave me in Chang'an City to wait for me to take the bait, so I have to thank you?

"I came here this time, in addition to asking my second brother to go out of the mountain, I also want my second brother to gather with the generals and schools in the army to help practice some formations during the expedition."

Li Yuanji saw that Li Shimin shut his mouth and was unwilling to say anything, so he immediately explained his reason for coming.

The long knife, which has been renamed Modao, has now been equipped with the teams of the twelve guards.

However, none of the Twelve Guards has been able to unleash the full power of Mo Dao.

Li Yuanji clearly remembered that in history, the Mo Dao of Tang Dynasty was one of the decisive weapons. Victory effect.

So he had to come to the door and ask Li Shimin and other art of war masters to make reasonable use of Mo Dao and let Mo Dao play its true role.

"What formation to practice?"

Li Shimin asked in a daze.

The existing formations in the army are all honed and refined from blood and fire. Even if he is familiar with the art of war and has won many battles, it is not easy to change it.

So he regretted what Li Yuanji said that sounded like an outsider's words.

Li Yuanji didn't give a damn, and replied happily: "Mo Dao Zhen!"

"Modao?"

Li Shimin was stunned again, and thought about it: "Is it the long knife in the hands of Du Fuwei in the past?"

Li Yuanji nodded.

Li Shimin asked suspiciously: "Kan Leng under your command doesn't know how to use Mo Dao to practice the formation?"

Mo Dao came from Du Fuwei's family. It was first controlled by Du Fuwei's godson Wang Xiongdan. After being recruited by Datang, it was controlled by Kan Leng again.

Logically speaking, Kan Leng should be more familiar with Modao than anyone else, and he should be able to easily integrate Modao into various military formations. Why didn't he do it?
Faced with Li Shimin's doubts, Li Yuanji said helplessly: "What Kan Leng knew was the Modao formation that Du Fuwei and Wang Xiongdan practiced together in the past, and it has been engraved in the bone marrow. There is a way to practice a new Modao formation, so I can only ask my second brother to take action."

What Kan Leng understands is the formation of Mo Dao Cheng Lin created by Du Fuwei and Wang Xiongdan, and it has already taken shape.

His brain is dead and he is not very flexible, so there is no way to integrate a single or a small group of Modao hands into other army formations.

The Mo Dao formation that was matched and practiced could not bring out the full power of the Mo Dao.

Therefore, it is necessary to find some people who are not familiar with Mo Dao, but who understand military affairs, to re-match and rehearse the military formation.

These people will not have the inherent thinking of Kan Leng, and the angle of looking at Mo Dao is naturally different from that of Kan Leng, and there will naturally be more formations that can be matched and practiced.
