NOVEL SIMPLE Chapter 113 Troop Training
It was not just Li Xiang himself who could figure this out. Jin Wang Li Zhi also figured it out. When Li Zhi stood up and spoke, the other princes were belatedly aware of it. But if they stand up again now, That would seem a bit artificial, and it would not leave a good impression on the emperor.
In fact, Li Zhi didn't understand what was going on at the beginning, but he knew that he must follow what Li Xiang wanted to do. At least after observing this month, Li Xiang did not suffer any loss in anything he did. If it were him If you don't follow, you will definitely be on the losing side.
"Normally you don't look like a swordsman or a gun wielder, but I didn't expect you to know how to share my worries at critical moments. In that case, you uncle and nephew will go to the battlefield together, but remember one thing, you only learned in the past, and you can only To boost morale, you cannot participate in military command. Everything must be listened to by the two generals, do you understand?"
Li Shimin was not a foolish king, so he naturally knew how embarrassed his son and grandson would be on the battlefield. In addition to dividing his troops to protect them, it would also likely have an impact on the battle situation. Therefore, in front of hundreds of officials, Li Shimin first sent his son and grandson to the battlefield. Sun Tzu's power has been taken away. After arriving at the front line, you are just a theatergoer, and everything has nothing to do with you.
Qin Qiong and Cheng Yaojin also breathed a sigh of relief. Since ancient times, royal family members have stayed in the capital. Let alone go to fight in other places. Even if they go out under the guise, it will bring huge trouble to the local magistrates. The two of them don't want to lead two laymen to fight. Li Xiang is okay, after all, he is reasonable. Li Zhi has never left the capital and has never cooperated with other ministers, so these two people are a little bit Not sure.
After the emperor's words, the two of them knew what to do. They tried to put the two highnesses in a safe place and take them with them when the battle was held so that they could learn more. Is it really true? Do you expect Prince Longsun to go to war?
The big deal was settled in this way, and everyone present went back to prepare. Li Xiang was delayed for a while because he had to hand over the money to the officials present. When Li Xiang wanted to leave, Wang De had already arrived next to Li Xiang. .
"I haven't seen you for a while. Your face looks better than before. Did you take some good medicine? Come back and give me some."
Wang De likes to be praised for his health. Li Xiang has known this for a long time, so he also knows how to speak.
"The old wild ginseng sent by His Highness is really a good thing. I have always soaked it in water and drank it as His Highness said. I have been very energetic these days."
Speaking of this matter, Wang De also wanted to thank Li Xiang. He used to work for Li Shimin at night, and he felt groggy when he got up in the morning. After all, he didn't have a good rest. But after receiving the old wild ginseng sent by Li Xiang, his overall condition improved. Much better than before.
At Wang De's age, he not only hopes that he can have some rest time, but also does not want to be taken out by other young eunuchs. You must know that no one who works as a eunuch in the palace is a fool. As long as you are not paying attention a little bit, It is very likely that someone will come to power, and it will be too late to regret it by then, so even if your body cannot withstand it, you have to grit your teeth and resist it. Once you lose the favor of the emperor, then you have to find a horn. Wait for death! There is no emotion to speak of here.
"I still have two of those things over there. I'll find someone to deliver them to you later. Does the prince come to me to see and inspect them in person? Are we not going to waste the court's money?"
Li Xiang said jokingly, and Wang De also thanked him again. Wang De knew that Li Xiang was different from others. Others might have forgotten about it after they said it would be sent to you, but as long as it was what Li Xiang said, All can be fulfilled.
"What did your Highness say? Where did this old slave come from with such courage? It was the Emperor who ordered the old slave to come over. After His Highness and the officials from the Ministry of Household Affairs completed the handover, the Emperor was waiting in the Imperial Garden."
Wang De said with a smile. Seeing that it was already lunch time, the emperor had the lunch delivered to the imperial garden. It was obvious that he wanted to eat with His Highness.
Li Xiang explained a few words to the people below, and then followed Wang De to the Imperial Garden. The imperial palace of the Tang Dynasty was vast in area. Although Li Shimin was very frugal, it was built by Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty, so it looked magnificent. In addition, Li Yuan spent huge sums of money on renovations. The palace is still a palace. Even if Li Xiang looks at it from a modern perspective, it is still an exquisite royal palace.
"I have met His Highness."
When passing the corner gate of the Royal Garden, five or six beauties in palace clothes stopped in front of them. These people should be the maids of the palace.
If Li Xiang had to avoid suspicion in the following dynasties, after all, these people were Li Shimin's women, but the society in the Tang Dynasty was relatively open, so Li Xiang could stride forward and walk over.
Li Xiang himself didn't know that his first meeting with Wu Meiniang passed like this without anyone introducing him. Wu Meiniang also lowered her head at that time. In addition, Li Xiang had no other thoughts about women at this time, so The Wu Meiniang enjoyed by other protagonists is completely overturned by Li Xiang.
"Grandpa, what are you doing here? Not to mention the dignitaries at this table, ordinary landowners and rich people have better food than this. I know that our treasury has no money, but we are not so poor, right?"
After arriving at the pavilion in the Royal Garden, Li Xiang looked at the dishes on the table and really didn't know what to say. Not to mention the taste was not good, and there wasn't even any meat. From the perspective of modern society, this was really a bit unpalatable. My son is too healthy.
"You kid, come and have a meal with me. This can be regarded as making you suffer a little. Once you get to the front line, the suffering there will be even greater than here. I think you have something to say in court, and you won't be satisfied." Let’s go to the front line and have a look?”
Li Shimin pointed to the seat next to him. He had already seen in the court that Li Xiang had something to say, but in front of everyone, Li Shimin couldn't figure out what Li Xiang meant, so he called Li Xiang here after he retired from the court.
"Nothing can be hidden from grandpa's eyes. I also want to make contributions to grandpa. Don't I want to really lead the army? I heard that the Zhechong Mansion in our border area has been abandoned for many years. Otherwise, grandpa will give me two I promise not to spend a penny from the court on military training, and when I come back from the south, these places will be full."
Li Xiang knew where to start. As long as it didn't cost money, Li Shimin would definitely be willing.
