Since entering Luoyang, Li Shimin has been busy without touching the ground. He has to stabilize Luoyang and meet with ministers at the same time. He finally breathed a sigh of relief. He still has to concentrate on winning over the Dugu family. Also this time, Dugu Huaien and Dugu Xiude also
Following them, Li Shimin had a pleasant chat with Dugu Wudu and Dugu Ji in their presence.
As for whether the person is as happy in his heart as he appears on the surface, only the person concerned knows.
After seeing off the Dugu family, Fang Xuanling, Changsun Wuji and Yu Zhining walked in.
"You are here, have you settled everything?" Li Shimin asked, rubbing the corners of his eyes.
Changsun Wuji said: "Luoyang's treasury has been emptied by Wang Shichong, and there is nothing to organize. A large part of the corresponding files and files have also been destroyed, and they have no great value."
Yu Zhining said: "The city has gradually stabilized, and all the rebels who would rather die than surrender are being imprisoned in prison, waiting for His Highness to be punished."
Li Shimin nodded and sighed: "It's a pity. I have seen the prosperity of the Eastern Capital once, but I didn't expect that it was ruined by Wang Shichong. This man really deserves to die."
Seeing that Li Shimin was tired and depressed, Fang Xuanling said with a smile: "I have some good news here, some interesting news. Your Highness can listen to it to relieve his boredom."
"Tell me about it."
"Yes." Fang Xuanling said: "His Royal Highness asked his subordinates to reward the soldiers of the three armies, and it has been completed with the help of Du Ruhui. Du Ruhui is really a talented person."
"So what if he's a great talent? He belongs to Zhiyun." Li Shimin shook his head and asked, "What's the interesting news?"
"Li Zhen, the bodyguard of His Royal Highness the King of Chu, went to the prison and took away Wang Xuanying's wife."
"Oh?" Speaking of this, Li Shimin suddenly felt no longer sleepy. He showed a smile that only a man could understand, "It seems that Zhiyun has grown up, and he has quite a bit of the legacy of Wei Wu."
Changsun Wuji also smiled and said: "My subordinates have always thought that King Chu has no flaws in the past, but this time it is an unexpected surprise."
Yu Zhining frowned, feeling that the matter was not simple, and asked Fang Xuanling, "Who is Wang Xuanying's wife?"
Yu Zhining said: "I'm afraid it's not the legacy of Wei Wu. I heard that Wei Kuangbo's son Wei Siqi is loyal to the King of Chu. Not long ago, Wei Yuancheng's daughter Wei Gui married into the King of Chu's palace. From this point of view, I'm afraid it's Wei Siqi who is loyal to the King of Chu."
Only if the king begs for mercy will the King of Chu save Wei's daughter."
"It doesn't matter, I'm just a woman." Li Shimin chuckled and didn't take this matter to heart, just treating it as an interesting thing.
He himself has many women. When he defeated Li Gui, he was also in Xiliang.
At this time, the King of Chu asked to see him.
"I guess Zhiyun came here this time because of the affairs of Wei's daughter."
"Your Highness, you might as well be a favor." Changsun Wuji said.
Li Shimin nodded and asked people to invite King Chu in.
When the two brothers met, they did not need to exchange pleasantries and went straight to the topic. As Li Shimin expected, Li Zhiyun directly brought up the matter of Wei Puti.
"The second brother also knows that the younger brother took Wei Gui into his home not long ago. This Wei girl is Wei Gui's sister. The younger brother has to take action even if he doesn't. Please forgive me, second brother."
"It doesn't matter, you can just find someone to reconcile Wang Xuanying and Wei's daughter. It's not a big deal." Li Shimin laughed and teased, "Zhiyun, honestly, do you want Empress E and Nv Ying to share the same husband?"
Li Zhiyun smiled awkwardly and defended: "Ahem, my younger brother is a serious person, not as cool as my fourth brother."
Li Yuanji knew how to play a lot, but his sisters could no longer satisfy him. When he was in Chang'an, there were all kinds of rumors about widows, mothers and daughters, etc. It was not surprising.
In fact, what Li Yuanji did is not too outrageous, after all, his targets are all women. Some nobles also like to raise little book boys and like Longyang's way.
Even in big families like Wu Xing and Qi Wang, shitty things like picking off ashes and ruining the whole family often happen.
Compared with those perverts, Li Yuanji is actually a normal person.
After listening to Li Zhiyun's words, Li Shimin, Fang Xuanling and others present burst into laughter.
After they finished laughing, Li Zhiyun cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, second brother, for your help."
"It's okay." Li Shimin waved his hand generously.
Immediately afterwards, Li Zhiyun said: "There is one more thing. I also want to plead with my second brother."
"But it doesn't matter."
Li Zhiyun said: "The second brother must also know that Qin Qiong and others under my younger brother were born in Wagang and had old friends with the thief general Shan Xiongxin. They can't bear Shan Xiongxin's mistakes again and again. They hope that the younger brother can intercede with the second brother and give Shan Xiongxin a chance."
Opportunity, let him be loyal to the Tang Dynasty and make meritorious deeds."
Hearing this, Li Shimin was silent and did not answer immediately.
Fang Xuanling said: "His Royal Highness the King of Chu does not know something. Shan Xiong believes that this person is unruly and has tried to murder the King of Qin many times."
"I know what you said." Li Zhiyun said: "However, I do think that if the second brother is willing to give Shan Xiongxin a chance, he will definitely be grateful to the second brother and swear loyalty to the death."
Yu Zhining shook his head and said: "Your Highness, what you said is wrong."
"Oh, what's your opinion, Mr. Yu?" Li Zhiyun looked at him.
Yu Zhining said: "I have no insights, only worries. Since Your Highness knows that Shan Xiongxin was born in Wagang, you should know that he was once a general in Wagang. Keeping him will not be conducive to pacifying the Central Plains. If this person learns from Li Mi again, he will be ambitious.
It will definitely lead to catastrophe."
Li Shimin said: "Yes Zhiyun, actually I also admire Shan Xiongxin. It's a pity that this person is quite influential in the Central Plains area. Once things change, he raises his arms and the Central Plains rebels rise again. That is our fault.
.”
Li Zhiyun thought for a moment and said: "The second brother mentioned the Central Plains, and the younger brother felt that Shan Xiongxin should be left behind. The defeat of Du Fuwei and Li Zitong is the best opportunity for our country to seize the land of the Central Plains. If we can
If Shan Xiongxin is left behind and asked to help his second brother, won't the recovery of various parts of the Central Plains be a matter of course?"
Fang Xuanling squinted her eyes, thinking about the pros and cons of this matter.
Changsun Wuji was also thoughtful.
Li Shimin was a little moved, but he did not express his attitude immediately. Instead, he said: "Let me think about it and give you an answer tomorrow, okay?"
"Thank you, second brother."
"It doesn't matter. You take the most credit for winning Luoyang this time. These are just trivial matters."
Immediately, Li Zhiyun talked to Li Shimin for a while, then said goodbye and left.
"What do you think?" Li Shimin asked his staff.
Yu Zhining objected: "Although what King Chu said makes sense, my subordinates still feel that Shan Xiongxin cannot be trusted easily. This person has tried to murder His Highness several times. He is definitely not a kind person."
Fang Xuanling nodded and said: "My subordinates think so too, and there is something going on with Li Mi, so I, the old man of Wagang, have to be careful."
Li Shimin pondered for a while and then asked Changsun Wuji, "Auxiliary machine, what do you mean?"
Changsun Wuji chuckled and said, "Your Highness, it is not impossible to accept Shan Xiongxin. This man is brave and good at fighting. If he is given a chance, he may not become an effective general of His Highness. But what Fang Xuanling and Yu Zhining said makes sense.
, my subordinates don’t know what to do either.”
"You." Li Shimin smiled and pointed at him with his finger, and continued: "The old generals in Wagang are quite brave. Qin Qiong, Luo Shixin and others under Zhiyun are quite enviable by me. Although Shan Xiongxin tried to murder him several times,
My king, but I can give him this opportunity, it depends on whether he is willing to seize it."
He certainly has his own broad mind and tolerance for others.
Seeing this, Fang Xuanling and Yu Zhining also knew King Qin's plan, so they said nothing more.
