Landlord of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 390 Unlucky Night
"Ah, ah, ah..." Li Yuan pushed Concubine Wan Gui lightly by himself, then calmed down, and shook his hand at Cheng Yaojin beside him.

At this time Pei Ji came in, and seeing that Li Yuan could still stand up, he sat down on the ground, fearing that he would need artificial respiration after running for a while.

Cheng Yaojin let go of Xu Qing, but Concubine Wan Gui said urgently: "You can't let go, this kid is very bad, if it wasn't for the emperor's auspiciousness, he has his own good looks, woo woo woo..."

Li Yuan stopped Concubine Wan Gui and said: "Although I was dizzy just now, I could hear clearly. Xu Qing saved me. My concubine, you go out first, and let the leader of the Yulin Army and Li Shiji come in."

From the time Xu Qing was thrown out of bed by Li Yuan until Cheng Yaojin and the others caught him, he remained silent all the time.After Xu Shiji and the general of the Yulin Army walked in, Li Yuan ordered the general to lead the people back, and asked Xu Qing to close the door, and helped Pei Ji who was paralyzed on the ground.Cheng Yaojin and Xu Shiji looked at each other and knew that this matter had nothing to do with Xu Qing, Xu Qing was still the same Xu Qing.

Li Yuan looked at the four people in the room, and couldn't help sighing: "You four are all my loyal ministers and extremely capable ministers."

Pei Ji led the crowd, and bowed in unison: "The ministers are panicked, so please ask the emperor to breathe the dragon's body, and the ministers can't exhaust the strength of the humerus."

Li Yuan, however, had a pensive expression on his face, he helped the bed to get up, and while beating the bed with his fingers, he asked everyone: "If I go today, what will you do?"

"Ah?" Pei Ji and Xu Shiji and Cheng Yaojin quickly bowed down, Xu Qing was a little slow, and also knelt down and hurriedly said: "I don't dare to speculate, please forgive me, Your Majesty."

Li Yuan was not reconciled, and asked one by one. From Pei Ji to Cheng Yaojin, they just said that I dare not, please take good care of your majesty. Xu Qing was planning to imitate cats and tigers, but Li Yuan said: "Xu Qing, speak your mind, don't do what they say." Otherwise, I would remember the slap you slapped me on the face!"

At this time, the other three people kneeling on the ground all looked sideways at Xu Qing, admiring them for daring to slap the dragon in the face.Xu Qing shook his head helplessly and said: "The emperor forgives the crime, the minister's slap is to see if the emperor still feels it..."

"Okay, okay, you saved my life, how can I care about those..." Li Yuan said slowly: "Xu Qing, just tell me what you will do if I really die."

Xu Qing swallowed his saliva: "My minister, I will bring a thousand guards of the Xuanwu Gate to protect the noble concubine and empress, and protect Chengqian and Chengdao. After that, I will announce all the officials to enter the palace overnight to control them. And write a letter to Yingzhou Daying, welcome the crown prince back secretly, and ascend the throne immediately." After Xu Qing finished speaking, he bowed on the ground and repeated what the previous three people had said.

Li Yuan was noncommittal after hearing this, and said to himself: "Just now, an urgent letter was sent here overnight. After I read it, I didn't feel relieved. Later, Concubine Wan Gui served by my side alone, and I listened to her orders personally. The eunuchs, the first three were Pei Ji, Xu Shiji, Cheng Yaojin, and Xu Qing after that. Then Xu Qing slapped me on the mouth, and then gave me a few breaths to squeeze out my thick phlegm. , that’s how it is now.”

"You four, even Concubine Wan Gui knows that you are really loyal ministers. In the days to come, no matter how I died or became confused, you must remember to support the prince, not King Qin. King Qin's character is too suitable to be The emperor is gone, I, I am afraid that he will cause bloody disasters."

"The ministers obey the order."

Xu Qing and others didn't know the real meaning of Li Yuan's words, they only heard Li Yuan say again: "Four lovers, please live in peace."

The four people on the ground stood up together, and Li Yuan said again: "Xu Qing, go and get a piece of casual clothes from the cabinet, and watch you run away." Cheng Yaojin and others looked over and smiled, at this time they It was only then that Xu Qing ran away and lost his shoes and hat, and his clothes looked as if he had just got up from the bed.

Xu Qing picked up a piece of clothing and put it on casually, Li Yuan nodded and said: "Not bad, spirit!"

At this time, Pei Ji cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, I don't know that when there is a peace at the border, the Emperor is so impatient?"

Li Yuan took out a folder at the bedside, threw it to Pei Ji, and lay down by himself, as if he hadn't recovered yet.Pei Ji took the notebook and took a rough look, only to see endless shock in his eyes.Successively, Cheng Yaojin and Xu Shiji also saw it, and they were all shocked.

Xu Qing was puzzled, he didn't know what this thing could surprise this number one figure in the Tang Dynasty, and finally, he also looked at it.

"The prince went deep into Xue Yantuo. When the letter was sent, Baima Mountain had already been besieged. But Xue Yantuo didn't know it was the prince, and the army was approaching. I'm afraid Xue Yantuo would be alert..."

After Xu Qing watched it, he complained: "The military situation is on fire, what's wrong with the people on the front line, and they still write urgent reports to Chang'an?"

Li Yuan waved his hands, closed his eyes and said, "That's not important, the important thing is how can we rescue the prince now that he is surrounded."

Xu Shiji thought for a while and said, "The only way to do it now is to disrupt the enemy's rear just like Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty."

Liu Bang, Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty, was besieged by the Huns, and the people in the court sent envoys to tell the wife of the Xiongnu Chanyu that her husband had cheated, and promised a large amount of gold and silver. This time, Liu Bang was taken back.

"Shiji, if I'm surrounded, I can still use this method to rescue me. I'm not afraid of losing face..." Li Yuan shook his head and said, "But it won't work, he will inherit the great treasure in the future, so we can't add such a big black spot gone."

Li Yuan's worry was not because he wanted to save face, but now he was divided into two factions who supported the Prince and the King of Qin. Once the Prince revealed his weakness in military affairs, it would even give the King of Qin an excuse.And King Qin is not the successor in Li Yuan's heart.

Xu Shiji said again: "Then why not send a small army to assassinate Xue Yantuo's nobles and cause chaos in the army. When the army is overwhelmed, if others find out, they will say that the prince is taking risks alone and using himself as a bait to lure the enemy to send troops. So , the prince can have both body and name."

As soon as these words came out, Li Yuan's eyes froze and he asked, "Then Shi Ji, who do you think is appropriate to send to lead this army?"

Xu Shiji shook his head and said: "The old wounds of the minister are hard to heal, Zhijie has a reckless personality, Pei Xiang is a literati, others are unreliable and make mistakes. Now, only Xu Qinger is suitable for His Majesty to send!"

Xu Qing jumped, and hurriedly prostrated himself and said: "Your Majesty, think twice, minister, I have a stomachache, head pain, waist pain, and many soldiers added to my body, I can't bear the military affairs, please forgive me."

Li Yuan snorted and said, "Don't you remember, you slapped me! No matter what, it's up to you!"

Xu Qing groaned, thinking to himself, what kind of crime did I do, what a bad night.Sleeping in the bed, he was woken up in a daze, and when he got here, he made out with an old man for a while. After that, he was sent to the border to fight Xue Yantuo. When he came back, he didn't know whether he was alive or dead...
