Li Xiaogong is in the study, reading "Three Kingdoms" with relish, this is the pleasure of having nothing to do after reading "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" once. Look at the history books to see how much of it is fictional.
Today's Li Xiaogong lives a very leisurely and simple life. I spend the whole day at home, reading books, reading the latest newspapers, and playing chess. The days are quite leisurely.
Although it doesn't matter if you don't participate in government affairs.
He is still enjoying himself.
After all, Li Xiaogong is from the clan, no matter what, he is a member of the royal family, so he will not be affected. Of course, because of Du Qi, many people have alienated the Li family in the early years, and even close friends with Wang's boudoir no longer talk to Wang's.
In fact, the Hejian County Prince's Mansion is now despised and alienated by countless people.
It's just that after the battle between Li Shimin and Du Qi began, the situation gradually became more subtle. In particular, Li Jing was defeated on the front line, and Li Jing actually surrendered to Du Qi. After serving for Du Qi, the situation in Chang'an changed even more.
Many children of big families who had been alienated from the Wang family began to have close contact with the Wang family, hoping to increase their relationship with the Wang family.
Wang Shi was very happy, she wanted to contact these people, but Li Xiaogong prevented Wang Shi from going out. Because at this extremely sensitive time, Wang's going out is prone to accidents. In fact, someone contacted the Wang family, and more people came to visit Li Xiaogong, hoping to establish a relationship with Li Xiaogong.
But in the end, Li Xiaogong refused all of them. Because of the war between Tang Dynasty and Xia Kingdom, the situation is very delicate. After all, Li Xiaogong is Du Qi's father-in-law, and this level of identity is a bit tricky.
He is not fit to go out.
Once he is active in the officialdom, he may be targeted, and the Li family may also be affected.
Therefore, Li Xiaogong always stays behind closed doors.
While Li Xiaogong was reading, there was a knock on the door, and the housekeeper entered. The butler bowed and said, "Your Highness, there is the latest news from the north."
Li Xiaogong took it and quickly browsed it. When he saw the contents of the letter, a shocked expression appeared on his face.
?Because Li Shimin lost.
Li Shimin led an army of 300,000 to Guazhou to attack the Xia Kingdom, but in the end it was lost and the 300,000 army was almost completely wiped out. As a result, Guazhou on the border has now fallen under the control of the Xia Kingdom.
In Li Xiaogong's heart, he was thinking about the impact of Li Shimin's defeat.
Du Qi won.
And for Du Qi to win such a big victory, it is not a good thing for Datang. And Li Xiaogong is in the center of power, so he must be more cautious, if he is not careful, it may affect him.
Li Xiaogong waved his hand, the housekeeper turned and retreated, he was alone thinking about how to deal with it.
Time passed by little by little.
Li Xiaogong gradually had an idea in his heart.
"Boom! Boom!"
There was a knock on the door.
The steward entered again, he bowed and bowed, and said again: "Patriarch, there is another message to send back."
While speaking, the butler handed over the letter.
Li Xiaogong took the letter and checked it. The content of the letter was simple. It was the news that Li Shimin left Shazhou first and started to return to Chang'an. This time when Li Shimin returned, he did not bring Changsun Wuji, Wei Zheng and others back, but Li Shimin brought back the Xuanjia Jingqi alone.
Li Xiaogong was thinking about Li Shimin's return, but he had no intention of letting Changsun Wuji and others come back.
Obviously, there will be another fight.
After Li Xiaogong confirmed Li Shimin's train of thought, he continued to deduce along this train of thought.
Du Qi's army has already captured Guazhou, especially this time Xia Guo was attacked by Li Shimin, Du Qi's disposition will definitely retaliate, so the war between Xia Guo and Datang will definitely continue, and the war will not stop.
"Will it involve me?"
In Li Xiaogong's heart, carefully review.
He continued to think.
After some deduction, Li Xiaogong suddenly thought of a possibility that he would be involved in the next battle, and he might even be asked to come forward. The reason is very simple, if Li Shimin no longer develops, he needs to come forward to ease the relationship with Du Qi, after all, he is Du Qi's father-in-law. If Li Shimin wants Du Qi to fight again, because the war is unfavorable, he needs to come forward because he has an unusual relationship with Du Qi.
Thinking of this possibility, Li Xiaogong's expression became serious, adding a touch of dignity.
Once this is the case, it will be difficult.
Especially since the emperor is already on his way back.
Lee Hyo-gong??As long as the arrangements are made, Li Chengqian will no longer care. But the imperial doctor came to Li Xiaogong's house and made a diagnosis for Li Xiaogong, but he couldn't find out what's wrong. After all, it involved something like a trance.
Li Chengqian got the news reported by the imperial doctor and confirmed that Li Xiaogong was really ill, and he was very happy.
Don't worry about this matter.
In Chang'an City, the news about Li Xiaogong's serious illness gradually became known to many people. Under this premise, many people who originally wanted to have a relationship with Li Xiaogong stopped visiting, and the Prince's Mansion of Hejian County was rarely quiet.
Time passed, and it entered February in a blink of an eye.
Li Shimin led the Xuanjia Jingqi, and had already returned from Shazhou and returned to Chang'an City. As soon as Li Shimin returned to the court, he never directly dealt with government affairs, but went straight to the harem to meet Li Yuan.
Li Shimin came to Li Yuan's palace, saluted Li Yuan, and said, "Father!"
Li Yuan waved his hand and said, "Sit!"
Today's Li Yuan looks even older.
There are even more age spots on the face, and the back of the whole person is also rickety, and it feels like a dying year. Li Yuan a few years ago, although he was old, was still in good spirits, but now Li Yuan gives people a feeling of uncertainty.
As if he could die at any moment.
After Li Shimin sat down, he didn't wait for Li Yuan's culture. He took the initiative to say: "Father, in the battle of Guazhou, Longyou Road, my sons and ministers lost countless troops and generals. There are countless losses. There are three hundred thousand troops, not one out of ten."
Li Yuan said: "The old man knows."
After a pause, Li Yuan continued: "Next, you should continue to fight Du Qi."
Li Shimin said: "Yes!"
Li Yuan said in a deep voice: "If you want to fight, fight. At this point, there is no other choice. After all, at the moment, it is inseparable from Xia Guo. Especially Guazhou is the territory of the Tang Dynasty and cannot be lost. Right now fight, and fight to the end.¡±
After hearing this, Li Shimin looked at Li Yuan in surprise.
Unexpectedly, Li Yuan would support him. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
