Back to Tang Dynasty to be Emperor

Li Ke returned to the mansion and briefly described the process of meeting Li Shimin with everyone.Everyone expressed their happiness that Su Dingfang was favored by Li Shimin, and congratulated him one after another, making Su Dingfang flustered and embarrassed for a long time.

After the congratulations were over and everyone sat down, Ma Zhou smiled and said, "Dingfang, it seems that you will report to Qianniuwei in a few days. Qianniuwei is full of talents, so don't fall into the prestige of our Han Palace."

Ma Zhou was joking, and Li Ke also joked, "King Bin is right, if I hear that the new Su Dingfang is nothing more than that from Yan Niuwei, then I won't even dare to go to the palace in the future."

Su Dingfang saw the two teasing him so much, his old face blushed, and he said seriously, "Don't worry, Your Highness, Dingfang will definitely not hide the prestige of the palace."

Seeing that Su Dingfang said seriously, Li Ke immediately said seriously, "The purpose of my father's transferring you to Qianniuwei is self-evident, and I want you to join the new army. He can report you like this because of your kindness." This memorial played a role. Therefore, in Qianniuwei, you just need to avoid any major incidents. The key lies in the new barracks, and you must show your true skills." Li Ke pondered for a moment and said, "According to my estimation, Your official position in the new army camp should be General Zhonglang, who can command [-] soldiers and horses alone. Therefore, it is possible that you will form the heavy cavalry of the new army, and you must make full preparations."

"The general understands, please rest assured, Your Highness." Su Dingfang replied seriously.

"Dingfang, if you are in Qianniuwei, I can find someone to protect you for a while. In the new barracks, it depends on your own ability. But if you encounter any difficulties in the new barracks in the future, you can come to me, and I will definitely help you Help you." Li Ke said sincerely.

"Thank you, Your Highness." Su Dingfang's voice was choked up, Feng Deyi invited him to be an official, Li Ke treated him with courtesy and sincerity.Now, he is looking for a position in the new army for him, and he will talk about what he has, and if he has any difficulties, he can find him.How can Su Dingfang not be moved by such a kindness of knowledge and encounter.

"Ahem..." Ma Zhou saw that something was wrong with the atmosphere, and coughed twice.Su Dingfang woke up in time, knowing that he had lost his composure, his old face blushed, and he was speechless.

Li Ke understood what Ma Zhou meant, and said with a smile, "Everyone has nothing to do, so I will go back to the study first, and you continue to talk." Then, Li Ke and Chen Qi walked out of Juyi Hall.After Li Ke left, everyone talked to Su Dingfang for a while before giving up.

When Li Ke returned to the study, he saw Chen Qi's puzzled expression. He seemed to have something to ask, but he didn't know how to ask, so he said, "Chen Qi, are you dissatisfied with King Bin's actions? "

"Your Highness, the general thinks so." Chen Qi said bluntly.

"King Bin is right, we understand what he means." Li Ke said slowly, "You have to know that Ding Fang is already a member of the father, and he will be a member of the court in the new army in the future. So, some words You shouldn't say it in front of this king, and this king shouldn't listen to it."

"So that's the case!" Chen Qi suddenly realized.

"Understood now?" Li Ke asked.

"I understand, Your Highness, thank you for reminding me." Chen Qi said honestly.Seeing Chen Qi's naive look, Li Ke also smiled slightly.

In the imperial study room of Ganquan Palace, Li Shimin received letters from the three princes about the new army one day, and he felt very comforted in his heart.He felt that the princes had begun to understand, and they understood to help him solve problems.However, after he finished reading Li Tai's memorial and then Li Chengqian's memorial, he became angry, really angry.He felt that his thinking was wrong, he thought too well of them, they were not helping him to solve his problems, they were clearly dividing the military power in his new army.

Li Tai's memorial, the whole article is the words of the sage, the way of the emperor, and finally said his views on the formation of a new army at the end.However, it is obviously just a scholar's opinion, without the slightest merit.At the same time, in his memorial, there is also a referee, You Xiaowei Zhonglang, Cheng Mingzhen.

Cheng Mingzhen was indeed a talented general, and he was well-versed in the art of war. In the memorial, he spoke clearly and well-founded about the formation of the new army.The art of war strategy, citing classics, knows everything.But savoring it carefully is just talk on paper, without practical experience.Combining the two memorials, it is not difficult for Li Shimin to see that this is Li Tai's perfunctory memorial to recommend Cheng Mingzhen, and he has never taken the matter of forming a new army to heart.No careful study, no deliberation.

Li Chengqian was more straightforward, and the formation of the new army was not mentioned in the memorial.The whole article is about the glorious deeds of Bo Zhao Jie, the master of Honglu Temple, and his heroic performance is obviously just recommending Zhao Jie to join the new army.However, Li Shimin knew who Zhao Jie was.He's just a dude with a life of wine and food.Usually in Chang'an City, relying on his clan and relatives, he doesn't pay attention to everyone at all.If Princess Changguang begged him hard, he would not even be able to take up the idle job of the head of the Honglu Temple.Doesn't Li Chengqian know that such a person is not qualified to join the new army at all?Don't you put Datang's honor and disgrace first for your own selfish desires and power?

Li Shimin thought of this, thought of what Li Chengqian and Li Tai did, and thought about what Li Ke did.Immediately furious, with a flick of a pen, an imperial edict was completed overnight.Stamped and printed, handed over to Wang Derang to pass the decree to his Han Palace.

Wang De took the imperial decree and saw that it was already the time of Jingyou. Seeing that Li Shimin ignored him, he bowed and retreated, and went straight to Hanwang's mansion.

-------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------- ------------------------

In the Palace of the King of Han, Li Ke and Ma Zhou watched the chessboard in front of them intently while drinking the hot tea made by Lan Er.Both of them reached the most critical moment, and they were about to kill each other within half a step.So, being serious, Yang En didn't even notice when he walked in.And Yang En is also the only one in the palace who can enter the study room without notification.

"Your Highness, the princes in the palace have come to deliver the decree." Yang En walked to Li Ke and said with a bow.

"Wang De?" Li Ke raised his head and asked in confusion, "What time is this? He came to pass the decree?" Seeing Yang En's face, I was puzzled, and then glanced at Ma Zhou, "Could it be that something happened in the palace?" Things won't work?"

Ma Zhou was also puzzled, wondering what happened when Wang De came to pass the decree at this time.

"Your Highness, why do we need to guess again, don't we know when we arrive at Juyi Hall?" Ma Zhou laughed.

Hearing what Ma Zhou said, Li Ke also smiled slightly.

When the three of them came to Juyi Hall, they saw that everyone was there except Su Dingfang.Seeing Li Ke walking in, Wang De stood up and saluted him, "His Royal Highness, quickly let Su Lie receive the order."

Li Ke glanced at the man in the middle, and asked Yang En, "Old Yang, why hasn't Dingfang come yet?"

"Your Highness, Su Dingfang is not in his own yard, so he really wants to practice formation with the wolf guards in the backyard?" Yang En said unhurriedly, "The old slave has already sent someone to look for him, and he will come soon."

As soon as Li Ke heard Yang En's explanation, he knew that Su Dingfang must be working hard in the backyard by himself, so he hurriedly explained to Wang De, "Please wait a moment, Wang Gonggong, Su Lie will be here soon."

Wang De also heard Yang En's words, and knew that Su Dingfang was practicing a military formation, and his dissatisfaction with him also disappeared. "Your Highness, please" bowed his hand and let Li Ke take the lead.

After Li Ke sat down and chatted with Wang De for a while, he saw Su Dingfang striding in in a military uniform.Seeing Li Ke, he immediately saluted him and said, "The last general Su Dingfang didn't know the imperial edict was coming, so he delayed receiving the edict. His Highness the King of Han will make atonement."

"What's the best book? You practiced hard in your own backyard to form a new army. What right does this king have to punish you?" He said this to let Wang De know that Su Dingfang didn't delay receiving the order on purpose.Immediately, he took a look at Wang De, "Please, my lord."

Wang De was not polite either. He took a few steps forward, took out the imperial decree, and read it, "In the past, the Tang Dynasty was brilliant and famous; the heroes and generals were powerful everywhere." Li Ke was not interested in the previous content, knowing that Wang De read, "Today There is Su Lie, the school lieutenant of the Imperial Palace of the Han Dynasty, who is commendable for his loyalty, bravery, and superior strategy. I deeply believe that, and I specially bestow Su Lie with a thousand bulls to prepare himself, and allow him to be appointed as the captain of the Qianniu Guard."

After Wang De finished reading, Li Ke was very happy, and Su Dingfang was promoted from school captain to captain.If, let him join the new army, giving him the position of Zhonglang will definitely be a matter of course.Thinking of this, his heart was filled with joy. If he wanted Su Dingfang to form a heavy cavalry, it would be quite a force.Li Shimin is really generous, the imperial edict was issued so quickly.

At this time, Su Dingfang had already written a favor and took over the imperial decree from Wang De.Seeing that the matter was finished, Wang De said to Li Ke, "Your Highness, there is still something to do in the palace, and this old slave will not bother you."

Li Ke woke up from the excitement just now when Wang De called him. He quickly thanked Wang De and asked Yang En to send him out of the palace.

After Wang De left, Li Ke said to Su Dingfang, "Dingfang, tomorrow you will go to Qianniuwei to report. However, the captain of Qianniuwei is only your temporary position. After the formation of the new army is settled, you will go to Go to form a new army. Therefore, you are under a lot of pressure, I hope you will not let me down."

"Thank you, Your Highness, the last general will definitely not disappoint His Highness's expectations." Then, he added, "I will not disappoint Your Majesty."

After listening, Li Ke nodded, expressing his satisfaction.

After Li Shimin wrote the imperial edict for the appointment of Su Dingfang and handed it to Wang De, he regretted that his decision was a bit hasty after thinking for a while.But the imperial decree had already been issued, and Wang De had already left the palace, so he just shook his head slightly and sighed, so he didn't worry about it anymore.

And the news that Li Shimin ordered Su Dingfang to take over Qianniuwei reached the ears of Li Chengqian, Li Tai and Li You that night.Naturally, Li Chengqian lost his temper in the East Palace, and had trouble with Li Gang, Zhang Xuansu and others.Compared to Li Chengqian's irascibility, Li Tai was very calm and only sighed slightly.And Li You held his hand tightly, the hatred for Li Ke in his heart
