First Minister of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 76 Aye is Not Simple

74. Aye is not simple

Seeing that Du Ruhui recognized him, Li Jing also stepped forward, feeling very moved.

"Keming is safe and well. Since I went to Mayi County in the first year of Daye, we have been separated for 13 years."

"It's been 13 years", Du Ruhui was filled with emotion, "I never thought you would be under King Tang's command?"

Li Jing was stunned, a little embarrassed, and said straight: "It's a long story, it's all thanks to General Gao's rescue", and then he bowed his hands to Gao Chong.

Gao Chong smiled "reservedly", this kindness seems to be stable.

"Keming, the king of the Tang Dynasty has taken all of Guanzhong, and the foundation has been completed. Just wait for the great changes in the Guandong, and then he can send his master to the east to calm the world. The second son is thirsty for talents. I was still a sinful body in the morning, and now I am deeply burdened. , It can be seen from this, why are you still hesitating?" Li Jing was more than ten years older than Du Ruhui, and he was an old friend, so he should try to persuade him.

Du Ruhui nodded when he heard the words, because he abandoned his official position because he was lazy with the Sui Dynasty. Now that the king of Tang's climate has been established, and Li Shimin is so sincere, there is no hesitation, and he immediately bowed to the ground. Please, I am very grateful, and I am willing to follow the tail and let it be driven."

Li Shimin was overjoyed when he saw this, he hurriedly helped Du Ruhui up, and held Du Ruhui's hand tightly, "To win Keming now is to win Zhang Liang", with a sincere expression on his face.

The corner of Gao Chong's mouth twitched, the words seemed familiar.

"Yuzhi is my arm. I am currently serving as a recorder and joining the army. I am in charge of Zhucao. After hearing about Keming's literary and historical heirs, I will serve as a facao temporarily and join the army. I will reward you for my meritorious service in the future." Li Shimin said without hesitation when he saw Li Jing on the side.

"How dare you refuse?" Du Ruhui complied naturally, and saluted Gao Chong again: "Thank you General Gao for your kind recommendation."

Gao Chong smiled, "We will all be colleagues in the future, so Keming doesn't need to be too polite." Two subordinates, one famous general, and one famous person, this feels a bit high.

Li Shimin looked at Gao Chong, a little strange, why Gao Chong was so happy, even happier than him, Li Shimin was full of emotion for this reason: Youzhi is not jealous of the virtuous and capable, and has a public heart, recommending so many talents for me, really It is my heart.

Gao Chong was thinking in his heart, if there were more talents, he would be rewarded with a recommendation, and his daily affairs would be much easier.

Once he entered Chang'an, the desks were filled with miscellaneous matters, such as prosecuting and apprehending, correcting non-violations, and even fighting between soldiers came to him. Now there is Du Ruhui, the law cao, who joins the army and leads the military mansion to review and judge. Everything can be handed over.

If Li Shimin knew that Gao Chong had worked so hard to recommend talents to him just to reduce his workload, Li Shimin might vomit three liters of blood.

Gao Chong changed suddenly and became the heir of Duke Yan, and Li Yuan was also very kind, and allocated a mansion in Chang'an City for everyone to settle down.

Looking at the Duke of Yan's mansion, which occupies a quarter of the square in front of him, Gao Chong looked left and right, speechless, as if Grandma Liu had entered the Grand View Garden, giving birth to a dozen or twenty children, It is enough for each person to share a yard, Tang Wang is really interesting.

Seeing Gao Chong's appearance of having never seen the world, Gao Junya was expressionless, "Do you know about Huadu Temple?"

Gao Chong was startled, "Huadu Temple? I've heard that it is said to be one of the best Buddhist temples in Chang'an City."

Speaking of the monk Gao Chong, he couldn’t bear to complain, “Ayeyou said that those monks who recite scriptures built such a large temple for what? Buddhism should be closed doors and hard work.” Although Gao Chong is not familiar with Chang’an, Hua Du Temple is such a famous big temple, and I have heard a little about it.

The corners of Gao Junya's mouth twitched when he heard the words, "Huadu Temple used to be the Duke of Qi's mansion", Gao Junya's desire to take the lady over became even stronger.

"Duke Qi?" Gao Chong touched the beautifully carved screen wall and responded casually, "The Duke of Qi is quite powerful, so..." Gao Chong was stunned when he said that.

"Aye, you said that Huadu Temple used to be uncle's house?" Gao Chong suddenly came to his senses, and asked with wide-eyed eyes.

Gao Junya nodded, "I was born in Duke Qi's mansion, and that house occupies half of Yiningfang."

Gao Chong was speechless, he admitted that he was narrow-minded.

It turned out that Aye from my family used to live in a bigger and more luxurious house, and he was the only one who was the co-author, so he made up his mind that he must go to Huadu Temple to see it some other day.

"This house is located in Anyefang, next to Zhuque Street, and close to the Imperial City. It can be built so luxuriously, and its previous owner must be a great person." Gao Chong hurriedly changed the topic, looking at the carved beams and painted buildings in front of him , Flying eaves and bucket arches are full of praise.

"The previous owner was Li Hun, Duke of the Kingdom of Yi," Gao Junya said after hearing the words, "After Li Hun was killed by Yang Guang, this house has no owner, and it belongs to Jingzhao County."

Gao Chong was startled, "Is that Li Hun who was wrongly killed by Yang Guang because of the prophecy that 'the Li family should be the emperor'?"

Gao Junya nodded and paused again, "Li Hun deserves what he deserves."

Seeing Gao Chong's puzzled face, Gao Junya showed some thought, and then said directly: "This house was originally owned by Li Hun's father, Shen Guogong Li Mu, and Li Hun is the tenth son. Dun died early, and after Li Mu's death, Li Yun, the eldest grandson of Li Mu, inherited the title of Duke of Shen. Li Hun felt resentful and sent someone to assassinate Li Yun.

But Li Yun happened to have a rift with his cousin Li Zhaitan, so Li Hun gave perjury and identified Li Zhaitan as the murderer, resulting in Li Zhaitan being killed. The murder of two relatives and nephews, such a vicious and ferocious person, in the end, he deserved his crime."

Gao Chong was dumbfounded when he heard that, he didn't expect Li Hun to be such a person, "Aye, how do you know these secrets?"

"Do you know who told Yang Guang the prophecy 'When Li is the Son of Heaven'? In other words, who made Li Hun die?" Gao Junya walked to the stone table in the courtyard and sat down. Said with interest.

Gao Chong shook his head dumbly.

"Xu Guogong Yu Wenshu", Gao Junya seemed to be very happy to talk about these things, shaking his head and laughing: "Yu Wenshu is Li Hun's wife and brother. Back then, Li Hun wanted to inherit Shen Guogong's family business, so he killed Li Yun. Yu Wenshu, who was led by Prince Zuowei, said: If you get a family business, you will be given half of the state's endowment every year.

Yu Wenshu had benefited, so he went to Yang Yong, the deposed prince, and said: "Shen Guogong's descendants are all rascals, not enough to inherit Shen Guogong's family business. Only Li Hun has made contributions to the country, and there is no one who can inherit the title without this person."Yang Yong was moved by Yuwen Shu's words, so he went to Emperor Wen to play a petition, and Li Hun inherited the Duke of Shen Guo."

Gao Chong's heart skipped a beat when he heard this, "Could it be that Li Hun broke his promise? Didn't he give Yu Wenshu half of the national endowment every year?"

Gao Chong knew that this national tax was definitely not the one-year tax of the Sui Dynasty, but the one-year tax of Shen Guogong's fiefdom.

Sure enough, Gao Junya nodded, and said with a disdainful smile: "That guy Li Hun is arrogant and extravagant, and he has more than 100 concubines, spending a lot of money, so he won't give Yu Wenshu his salary in the next year, and Yu Wenshu is furious. Everyone said: "Li Hun lied to him, and he will never forget it after death."

Gao Chong was very surprised when he heard this. He clearly remembered that Li Hun in the novel was a loyal official who was killed unjustly, and also the father-in-law of Qin Qiong.

Sure enough, many things are not as simple as they appear on the surface. Looking at his father's clear and handsome face under the moonlight, Gao Chong firmly believes that Aye is also not simple.

　Do you know why Daddy Pig Knuckles is saying this?
