Man Tanghong

Chapter 991

Li Shimin frowned and thought carefully for a while, then nodded his head and said in a heavy voice: "From what you said, it's really possible..."

Speaking of this, Li Shimin suddenly looked up at Li Yuanji and said, "But the matter has come to this point, and it is useless to find out whose fault it is. We have to find a way to get rid of the villain Yang Zhengdao as soon as possible."

Li Yuanji was slightly taken aback when he heard this. He didn't expect that Li Shimin, who always liked to argue with him and sneered at him, didn't take the opportunity to mock him. Instead, he helped him out, and even offered to help Find a way to get rid of Yang Zhengdao.

For a moment, Li Yuanji felt a little relieved.

Li Shimin is worthy of being Li Shimin, he really doesn't hold back others in business matters, and he doesn't take the opportunity to vent his selfish desires.

Li Yuanji immediately squeezed out a smile and said, "Don't worry about this second brother, I've already figured out a way to deal with him!"

Li Shimin said without the slightest hesitation: "What way?"

Li Yuanji said with a smile: "Tiao Li Jing, Ashina Simo, the great chieftain of the Azhang tribe, the chieftain of the Pugu tribe, and the Xue brothers, and lead the army together to fight against Suni's missing tribe."

Li Shimin was stunned for a moment.

This is exactly the same as the previously planned strategy.

Is this also a solution?

Li Shimin was a little confused for a while.

Li Yuanji explained with a smile: "In the face of absolute strength, no conspiracy can last long. So Yang Zhengdao can play as much as he wants. We don't accept moves. We just need to use upright teachers to crush them from the front. Just him and Ashinabil."

Li Shimin didn't know what to say all of a sudden, he opened his mouth several times, but didn't say a word.

Say this is not the way, it is indeed a way, and it is a relatively aboveboard way.

Saying this is a way, this is equivalent to bringing out what was planned before and talking about it again, what is the difference between not saying it?

Seeing that Li Shimin was speechless, Li Yuanji laughed cheerfully.

Yang Zhengdao is just a clown, so there is no need to waste brain cells for him.

Anyway, Datang had already decided to use an upright and upright army to crush Suni's lost department, so Yang Zhengdao's methods could only form some obstacles to Datang, and they could not stop Datang from taking down Suni's department.

Datang has this strength, so speak with strength, there is no need to lower your status, go to the level where Yang Zhengdao is, and fight with Yang Zhengdao.

What's more, fighting the enemy's staff on the battlefield is a matter for the generals and staff. The commander and the superior don't have so much free time. The commander and the superior should control the overall situation, arrange strategies, and adjust the strategy.

So if you have to fight Yang Zhengdao, people like Xue Shou, Yu Zhining, Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling, etc. should come forward, not the commander-in-chief or someone in high position.

Soldier against soldier, general against general, this is the most basic rule on the battlefield.

"Your Highness, there are people in front to welcome you!"

When it was about ten miles away from Shuofang City, the scouts sent by Zhao Chengyong suddenly rushed back to report.

Li Yuanji didn't feel surprised, but asked with interest: "Who is it?"

The scout cupped his hands and said, "It's Liang Luoren, governor of Shuozhou!"

Li Yuanji chuckled and said, "I guess it's him..."

Although Liang Luoren has now been appointed as the governor of Shuozhou, it is still unknown to him whether he will be able to sit as governor forever.

Although he has made great contributions in helping the Tang Dynasty conquer the Liang State, he is the royal family of the Liang State after all.

There are other royal families who surrendered to Tang Dynasty as examples. He must be very panicked and uneasy at this time.

It is also reasonable to run ten miles away to meet his judge.

Although he can't decide the final trial result, but before the verdict is pronounced, a wave of impression points can also give him a little more vitality.

Li Shimin, who hadn't spoken for a long time, spoke at this moment, "Do you really want to see this spineless person who betrays his family and forgets his ancestors?"

Li Yuanji was taken aback, then looked at Li Shimin in astonishment.

He didn't understand why Li Shimin gave Liang Luoren such an evaluation.

From Datang's point of view, Liang Luoren is a person who has made great contributions to Datang.

As the royal family of Datang, not only should he not belittle him, but he should also be praised, so that more people can follow him, lead their clansmen to submit to Datang, and make contributions to Datang.

"What? Don't understand what I said?"

Li Shimin questioned in a blunt tone.

Li Yuanji came back to his senses, shook his head dumbfoundingly and said, "I understand, why don't I understand!"

From the perspective of Tang Dynasty, it is not easy to understand Li Shimin's evaluation of Liang Luoren, but from the perspective of the already destroyed Liang State, it can be understood in an instant.

Li Shimin looked down on Liang Luoren when the Liang family's Liang country was in crisis, not only did not sacrifice himself to the country, but also turned against each other for the sake of glory, wealth and life.

Frankly speaking, Liang Luoren mentioned this issue before.

He fell to Datang, not for his personal wealth, nor for his personal life, but for the life and death of the Liang family.

With the way Datang treats the royal family of the enemy country, if he followed Liang Shidu all the way to the dark, and Liang Shidu was still defeated by Datang in the end, then all the members of the Liang family would have to be buried with Liang Shidu.

He didn't want their Liang clan to be exterminated like the Liu clan, Chai clan, Wang clan, Dou clan and other clans, so he fell to Datang.

Therefore, Li Shimin said that he is a person who has forgotten his family and has no backbone, which is inevitably biased.

However, since Li Shimin already thinks so, it will be difficult to change his opinion in a short time.

That is to say, his opinion won't have much effect on Liang Luoren's future affairs, otherwise Liang Luoren will probably tremble when he finds out.

Li Yuanji also finally understood why Liang Luoren in history became unknown after surrendering to the Tang Dynasty. The original root lies here.

He was regarded by Li Shimin as a person who forgot his ancestors and had no backbone, so how could he get ahead under Li Shimin's hands?

"Since you understand, you shouldn't see him."

Li Shimin snorted.

Li Yuanji shook his head and said with a smile: "I still have to see him. Maybe he's not as miserable as the second brother said."

Li Shimin immediately raised his eyes and was about to refute.

Li Yuanji continued: "I know why the second brother said that he is a person who forgot his ancestors and has no backbone, but has the second brother ever thought that he might have some difficulties?"

Li Shimin said disdainfully: "If he settles his clansmen after surrendering to my Tang Dynasty, and then draws his sword and kills himself, I believe he has some difficulties, but he doesn't!"

Li Yuanji didn't know what to say for a moment.

Li Shimin used the example of benevolence and righteousness to ask Liang Luoren, isn't this bullying?
I'm afraid Li Shimin himself can't do this.

Then why use this standard to ask others?
"Don't do to others what you don't want yourself to do to yourself, second brother!"

After a brief silence, Li Yuanji reminded Li Shimin helplessly.

After Li Shimin heard this, he also realized that he seemed to be going too far. He immediately coughed twice, and said stiffly, "Anyway, I think he is a man who forgets his ancestors and has no backbone!"

Li Yuanji shook his head dumbfounded, and instead of talking to Li Shimin, he ordered the scouts of the former army to lead the way.

After walking about a mile forward, an elegant octagonal pavilion appeared in front of everyone.

The pavilion seems to be newly built, and the surrounding snow and vegetation have been leveled, exposing a large black soil that can squeeze out oil.

Liang Luoren wore a gauze cap with two wings on his head, a purple official uniform with a gold jade belt around his waist, and led a group of people in green official uniforms to wait in front of the pavilion.

When Li Yuanji and his people were about to enter the front of the pavilion, Liang Luoren and a group of officials hurried forward to meet him.

"Chen Shuozhou Inspector Liang Luoren, see Your Highness!"

"Chen Shuo Governor History..."

"Chen Shuozhou joins the army..."

"Minister Cao of Shuozhou..."

"..."

When Liang Luoren arrived in front of the horse, he was the first to salute, and then other officials followed suit.

Li Yuanji took a general look. Except for Liang Luoren, the rest were all surrenders from the Kingdom of Liang. They had the same worries as Liang Luoren, so it was not surprising that they followed Liang Luoren here to greet him.

"Liang Aiqing, please stand up!"

Li Yuanji smiled and asked Liang Luoren to stand up.

After Liang Luoren thanked him, he straightened up with other officials.

Li Yuanji smiled politely: "Lao Liang Aiqing is here to welcome you!"

Liang Luoren hurriedly bent down and said, "I dare not!"

After speaking, Liang Luoren said again: "The minister and a group of colleagues from Shuozhou prepared all the wine and food in the pavilion to welcome His Highness and cleanse the dust. I hope His Highness will not be disgusted."

Li Yuanji glanced at the pavilion and saw a low stele in front of the pavilion with the words 'Welcome to the King' written on it. He smiled knowingly and said, "Liang Aiqing has a heart, and Liang Aiqing can think of welcoming me here." Washing the dust, it is ingenious!"

It's ingenious to temporarily build a pavilion in the wilderness, and then invite people to eat in the pavilion.

Of course, ingenuity is just a polite way of saying it. If you are not polite, you will directly say that you are mentally ill.

Liang Luoren heard the meaning of praise and criticism in the four words 'ingenious', and said with some embarrassment: "I also want to show my heart. If you enter Shuofang City, if I want to express my heart again, I'm afraid I won't have a chance."

Li Yuanji agrees with Liang Luoren's statement.

After all, there are a lot of people in Shuofang City who will take care of him, and their status is higher than Liang Luoren's. Liang Luoren wants to invite him alone, but he has no chance at all.

"Forget it, for the sake of your hard work, I'll have a taste of your banquet."

Li Yuanji said with a smile.

The intention mentioned here does not refer to Liang Luoren going out of the city ten miles to greet each other, nor does it refer to the banquet held by Liang Luoren in the pavilion, but refers to Liang Luoren's painstaking efforts to build a pavilion specially to invite him to dinner.

If you look closely, you can tell at a glance when the stone and wood on the pavilion were mined.

The traces of iron tongs on the stone are very clear, and the stone is very new, without any dirt, and there is no trace of wind and rain. It is estimated that it has just been mined.

The wood may have been mined for some years, because it has dried, but the wood has obviously been scraped and brushed with tung oil, so it looks new and bright.
