Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    When Li Yong was about to be beaten, Yan Bei suddenly stopped him and said, "Wait a minute, Su Sima!"

    "Hmm~" Su Dingfang's face darkened. He was born in the military, and his official positions were earned with swords and guns. Therefore, he looked down on the two young masters Yan Bei and Li Yong from the bottom of his heart, especially Li Yong.  Being absent without permission made him even more disgusted. If it weren't for Li Min's sake, another person would have been killed by him.

    Although Yan Bei came from a wealthy family, he had also dealt with many people from lower classes, and he understood Su Dingfang's psychology very well, so he smiled kindly and said: "Haha, Su Sima, although this matter is Li Dianjun's fault, but  But you can't blame him entirely. After all, he is only fifteen years old, and he has never had any military experience, and he is not very clear about the situation in the military. It is understandable that he made such a mistake. If you must blame him, then you  Just blame His Highness, he was the one who insisted on letting the young Li Yong take the position of Dianjun."

    Yan Bei's trick of Dou Zhuan Xing Shi was so clever. He immediately attributed the fault to Li Min, and what he said was reasonable and reasonable. Su Dingfang couldn't find fault for a while, but Li Min also knew the trick at this time, and immediately looked regretful.  He said: "Yan Changshi is right. This matter is all my fault. I should not let my ninth brother take the post of Dianjun. If you want to fight, just fight me!"

    Although Su Dingfang was very strict in running the army, he was not a man who did not know how to adapt. When he saw that Li Min and Yan Bei were interceding for Li Yong, he pondered for a while and then said: "Your Highness, since you also think that Li Yong is suitable for Dian."  If he holds a military position, his subordinates will dismiss him from the military position now and never hire him again!"

    "What~, you want to kick me out of the army?" Li Yong, who was pinned to the ground, immediately became anxious when he heard Su Dingfang's words. His father, Li Xiaogong, was unparalleled on the battlefield and was the most famous general in the Tang Dynasty.  One, Li Yong has been influenced by it since he was a child, and he also yearns to lead troops in combat. Now he finally joined the army.  How could he be kicked out in such a dejected manner?  This is too embarrassing for his father, King Hejian.

    "Why, do you think you are qualified for the position of military commander?" Su Dingfang also turned his face dark and asked with disdain in his eyes.

    "Humph, isn't it just a small military officer? I don't want to be a soldier yet. The worst I can do is start from a small soldier, and my official position will definitely be higher than yours in the future!" Li Yong has always been extremely arrogant, and he won't obey anyone except Li Min.  , but today, the disdain in Su Dingfang's eyes hurt his self-esteem.  Think about how prestigious his father, King Hejian, is in the army?  But when it comes to my own place, I can't even be a small Dianjun?

    When Li Min heard what Li Yong said, his eyes immediately lit up. Didn't Li Xiaogong ask him to discipline Li Yong for him?  This is a good opportunity. What better place to train yourself than in the army?  In addition, there is Su Dingfang, a stupid young man who doesn't care about his identity at all. If Li Yong gets this stubborn stone into his hands, even if he can't polish out a gem, it will still be good to polish out a brick!

    Thinking of this, Li Min didn't wait for Su Dingfang's answer and immediately said: "Ninth brother is so ambitious. A man should join the army and kill the enemy to serve the country. I remember when my uncle was your age. He was already serving in the army. Today, the ninth brother can  If you make some determination, your future achievements will definitely not be inferior to your father's."

    Li Min is digging a hole for Li Yong, forcing him to jump even if he doesn't want to.  What's even more pitiful is that this kid Li Yong didn't realize that this was a trap at all, but instead got excited by Li Min's few words of praise.  The expression on his face became more determined, and he stared at Su Dingfang with piercing eyes, but he didn't realize that Yan Bei next to him was staring at him with pity.

    Su Dingfang did not expect that the young master Li Yong could be so stubborn. He also admired Li Xiaogong, the king of Hejian, very much.  It's just that he didn't see any trace of Li Xiaogong in Li Yong before, but now it seems.  This Li Yong is not without merit, at least he has some appreciation for his stubborn temper.

    "Okay, this is what you said, don't regret it then." Since it was Li Yong who said it himself, and Li Min agreed, Su Dingfang naturally had nothing to object to, and he didn't really believe that Li Yong could survive the military.  When the time comes, if the other person can't stand it and leaves, then you can't blame him.

    Now that the matter had been agreed upon, Li Yong was immediately transformed from a regular soldier into a small soldier, and was immediately organized into the surrounding escorts by Su Dingfang. Looking at the stubborn-looking Li Yong, wearing armor, he resolutely joined the escort,  Li Min and Yan Bei looked at each other and smiled. As long as Li Yong entered the army and couldn't survive, he would never come out again.

    Although riding a horse looks very majestic, it is okay after riding for a while. If you ride for too long, the inner thighs will become hot and painful. Li Min and Yan Bei are not good at riding horses, and they will feel a little unbearable after a while.  .

    For this hard-won opportunity to serve as an official, Yan Bei also spent a lot of money. Not only did he come, but he also brought his family members. When he felt uncomfortable riding a horse, he immediatelyHe got into his family's carriage and pretended to be in touch with his wife.  Li Min held on for a while for the sake of face, but finally he couldn't bear it anymore, so he simply followed suit and got into the big carriage where Xiao Wenxin was.

    This carriage was specially made by Li Min. Not only does it have the best shock-absorbing system, but the interior space is also very spacious. The floor is covered with thick carpets. There is a bed in the innermost part. You can lie down on it to rest when you are tired.  It is a low coffee table and a few small stools, so ten people can sit there without feeling crowded.

    Before Li Min entered the carriage, there were already five people inside. In addition to Xiao Wenxin, Wen'er, Hua'er, Lvzhu and Wang Xijun were all inside.  Li Min was also a little surprised that Wang Xijun wanted to go to Dengzhou with him.  Because there are too many industries in Chang'an, such as wineries, coal mines, etc., they have to be taken care of by someone, plus some other considerations, so Li Min decided to leave Wang Zihao in Chang'an, but Wang Xijun said that he was already Li Min  Therefore, Li Min's maid also wanted to come, and even Wang Zihao was very supportive. Li Min had no choice but to bring her with him.

    Li Min entered the carriage and saw Wen'er, Hua'er and Luzhu playing Landlords, while Xiao Wenxin and Wang Xijun each held a book in their hands and sat on both sides of the bed inside. Xiao Wenxin was reading the unfinished book.  "Dream of Red Mansions", while Wang Xijun was looking at the "Three Kingdoms" that had just been printed.

    Because the book Three Kingdoms was valued by Li Shimin, he felt that it was not satisfying after reading it. He also had it printed into a book and given it as a gift to civil and military officials during the Chinese New Year. As a result, before the Lantern Festival even started, the upper class of the Tang Dynasty had already read it.  A group of very high-end fans of the Three Kingdoms have formed. When visiting during the Chinese New Year, they must talk about the Three Kingdoms in three sentences.

    With the leadership of these people, coupled with the crazy piracy of some unscrupulous businessmen, when Li Min left Chang'an, almost everyone who was literate had a copy of Three Kingdoms. Even if some people didn't like it, they were attracted by this book.  The book that spread from Li Liulang still made many people generously donate their money to buy a copy. It is precisely for this reason that the booksellers in Chang'an City made a fortune. Unfortunately, Li Min, the 'author', continued to make money.  Didn't get a single copper plate.

    "Hey, husband, you are finally here. I am still waiting for you to tell me about the Red Mansion?" Seeing Li Min come in, Xiao Wenxin suddenly showed unusual enthusiasm and pulled Li Min to sit next to her.  Xijun, who was sitting on the other side, glanced disdainfully, said nothing, and continued to read her Three Kingdoms, but she didn't realize that she had been staring at the same page for a long time.

    Li Min was also a little overwhelmed by Wen Xin's enthusiasm, but he came here to rest anyway and had nothing to do, so after drinking tea, he started to talk about the Three Kingdoms, while Wen Xin listened, slowly and half-heartedly.  Lying in Li Min's arms, his face was full of happiness.  Wen'er and the others started to play, and they were already accustomed to the closeness between Li Min and Wen Xin, so they didn't take it seriously.

    Although Wang Xijun next to him had been staring at the book, he was actually paying attention to Li Min's side with the corner of his eyes. When he saw the intimate appearance of the couple, Wang Xijun couldn't help but feel jealous in his heart.  From the moment she entered the carriage, the sensitive Xiao Wenxin showed an instinctive rejection of herself. As the hostess, Xiao Wenxin began to chat affectionately with her, a special maid, but soon the two of them fell into each other.  There was an awkward silence, and finally I could only take out the books I brought with me and start reading.

    "I'm going to ride a horse!" Wang Xijun suddenly felt a tightness in his chest. He simply dropped the book and stood up. After saying this, he didn't care about the reactions of others. He got off the carriage and rode back and forth several times before he felt better.  .

    Chang'an is more than two thousand miles away from Dengzhou, and Li Min and the others not only have more people, but also carry more things. If they only take the land route, it will be a bit troublesome, especially since the transportation situation in Datang has not been completely improved.  Among them, it is good to go from Chang'an to Luoyang. The cement road has almost been repaired. The convoy is driving on the flat cement road at a very fast speed. Then it goes from Luoyang to Zhengzhou. It is not easy to travel by land further east.

    Fortunately, there is still a Yellow River. In the early Tang Dynasty, because the vegetation in the upper reaches had not been destroyed on a large scale, the water of the Yellow River that Li Min saw was only slightly turbid, and the flow was much larger than that of later generations. And after the New Year  , the temperature rose rapidly. By the time Li Min and the others arrived in Zhengzhou, the Yellow River had thawed and it was completely safe for sailing.

    The governor of Zhengzhou had already prepared a boat for Li Min, and Li Min finally saw the legendary building boat. This kind of building boat is just like its name, standing in the water like sitting on a tall building, such as the one Li Min is sitting on,  It was a three-story building ship that could carry two thousand people. Except for the sailors, it could carry almost everyone Li Min brought with him. However, Li Min was a little worried when he looked at it.  It can be seen that the center of gravity is above the water. If the ship encounters a storm and capsizes, it will be terrible.

    In addition to the largest building ships, the local state government also prepared a lot of cargo ships. It took Li Min and the others two days to bring them.Xidu moved on to the boat, then went down the river and got off the boat at the boundary of Qingzhou. Then after passing through Laizhou, he finally reached the boundary of Dengzhou.  (To be continued)
