"Your Highness, my Highness has been waiting for you for a long time."
Not long after Li Yuanji stayed at the edge of the competition arena, Duan Zhixuan, the commander of the Xuanjia Army next to Li Shimin, quietly appeared beside him and spoke in an angry voice.
Duan Zhixuan is a strong man who is half a head taller than ordinary people. He is tall and burly, like an iron tower. He is wearing a tight black military uniform. You can clearly see the outline of muscles full of power. The black
The military uniform looked like a tights on him.
However, the reason why Duan Zhixuan dressed like this was not to show off his muscles, nor to satisfy some perverted hobby deep in his heart, but to wear the heavy armor uniformly equipped by the Xuanjia Army.
The armor equipped by the Xuanjia Army is not just a single piece of armor, but also a variety of military uniforms and armor equipped to meet different needs.
For example, when going into battle in full armor, in order to prevent damage to the armor from damage to the body, a close-fitting military uniform will be worn under the armor.
For example, during daily marches, in order to meet the needs of a light vehicle and improve mobility, a suit of cloth armor will be worn.
For example, when temporarily serving as a light cavalry, in order to improve mobility and have a certain degree of defense, they would wear leather armor.
In short, the Xuanjia Army has different equipment and equipment when facing different needs.
This is also the reason why the Xuanjia Army can follow Li Shimin no matter what the occasion.
This is also one of the reasons why the Xuanjia Army has repeatedly made great achievements on the battlefield.
Among the many pieces of equipment of the Xuanjia Army, heavy armor is undoubtedly the most useful armor, and it is also the armor that can improve them the most.
Therefore, in order to make it easier to wear heavy armor anytime and anywhere, and to adapt to wearing heavy armor for long periods of time in combat, most of the Xuanjia Army officers will also wear a tight-fitting military uniform in their spare time. Some who are strict with themselves will also carry their own weight.
.
Under such strict self-requirements, it is difficult for the Xuanjia Army not to be strong in combat effectiveness, and it is also difficult for the Xuanjia Army not to become a famous and powerful army in the world.
Li Yuanji admired Xuan Jiajun's habit of being strict with himself, but he didn't appreciate Duan Zhixuan very much.
Because when this guy was talking, he had no emotion at all, no expression at all, he was just like a piece of wood.
If it weren't for the hot air coming out of this guy's nostrils from time to time, Li Yuanji would even suspect that this guy was a zombie.
The reason why people are called humans is because they have seven emotions and six desires.
If a person does not have seven emotions and six desires, then no matter how capable he is, he cannot be considered a human being.
Those with high moral character will be called gods and holy Buddhas.
Those with despicable morals are called monsters and ghosts.
All in all, he would never be called a human being.
There is no doubt that Duan Zhixuan will not become an immortal or a holy Buddha, so he is obviously developing into demons and ghosts.
Li Yuanji cannot appreciate anyone who develops in this direction.
Li Yuanji didn't like talking to this kind of person, so he just said indifferently, "Lead the way."
Duan Zhixuan gave a stiff salute and led Li Yuanji towards the location of the high platform.
The high platform is made of a mixture of adobe bricks.
The base is made of the same mixed soil used to build city walls.
On the base, a brick platform about three feet high was built with green bricks.
The brick platform is not big, only three feet in diameter.
After it was filled with all kinds of flags, eucalyptus tables made by qualified people were placed, and three cloth walls were surrounded, there was not much free space left.
Li Shimin was sitting in front of a table in the middle of the brick table. On the table were two plates of shabby vegetables, a large amount of meat, and a jar of warming wine.
Qu Tutong and Changsun Wuji were sitting on both sides, while Yu Zhining and Han Liang were waiting on them.
Li Yuanji got on the brick platform, and Li Shimin happily patted the seat next to him and said with a smile: "Yuanji, come and sit quickly. I've been waiting for you for a long time."
Li Shimin looked like he was driving much faster than before. He probably came out on top when he was competing for the prey he had caught, so he was very happy.
Li Yuanji was not polite, he cupped his hands towards Li Shimin, called "Second Brother", then walked over to Li Shimin and sat down beside him.
Qu Tutong, Changsun Wuji, Yu Zhining, Han Liang and others all came to pay homage to Li Yuanji.
Li Yuanji waved his hand, "No need to be polite."
Qu Tutong and others sat down again.
Ren Gui, Quan Xu, Ling Jing and others saluted Li Shimin after Qu Tutong and others sat down.
When Li Shimin saw Ren Gui and Quan Xu, he was obviously stunned for a moment, and a strange color flashed in his eyes. Then he did not rush to let Ren Gui, Quan Xu, Ling Jing and others get up, but smiled and said to Li Yuanji: "
Yuanji, why don’t you introduce it to me?”
Li Yuanji glanced at Li Shimin and rolled his eyes inwardly.
He didn't believe that Li Shimin didn't know Ren Gui and Quan Xu.
However, since Li Shimin asked, he had to introduce it.
Immediately, Li Yuanji used his hand as a palm to introduce to Ren Gui and Quan Xu: "This is Ren Gongzi Wei, who previously served as the general manager in Xuzhou, and now serves as the right servant of Daxingtai, Hebei Province in my house.
This is Quan Ziming, the Duke of Qianjin County, who previously served as a sinecure, but now serves as the commander-in-chief of the Tongjun Mansion."
After hearing this introduction, Li Shimin looked at Ren Gui with a blank look on his face and said with emotion: "It turns out to be Guan Guogong. When I was conquering Dou Jiande and Liu Heitai, I had to do business with Guan Guogong.
It's just that I have been busy with the war and have not been able to meet Duke Guan.
Now that you have seen it, let’s take a drink.”
With that said, Li Shimin stood up with a wine cup, first ordered people to arrange a seat for Ren Gui, served a table of wine and food, and then led Qu Tutong and others to toast Ren Gui.
Ren Gui drank a drink with Li Shimin in a neither humble nor overbearing manner, and then exchanged a few words with Li Shimin.
Li Shimin cried out that it was a pity that he could not meet Ren Gui when he was fighting for the past.
Ren Gui just smiled and didn't say much.
Li Shimin was exchanging pleasantries when he suddenly remembered that his subordinate Zhang Gongjin once served as a general under Ren Gui, and ordered someone to call Zhang Gongjin to reminisce with Ren Gui.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Zhang Gongjin was actually quite embarrassed when he met Ren Gui.
Because when he was a general under Ren Gui, Ren Gui treated him very well and also intended to recommend him to Li Jiancheng.
But before Ren Gui took action, he met Yu Chi Gong and others during an operation to rescue Yu Chi Gong and others. Then, under the introduction of Yu Chi Gong and others, he joined Tiance Mansion and betrayed Ren Gui.
.
So he is a traitor to Ren Gui.
He had no shame in reminiscing with Ren Gui.
When Ren Gui saw Zhang Gongjin, she looked calm and composed, with a calm smile on her face, and kept greeting Zhang Gongjin.
"God's Coming"
This made Mr. Zhang Jin feel like he was sitting on pins and needles. He smiled awkwardly and replied stiffly.
"Hahaha, it seems Gong Jin can't let go."
Li Shimin saw Zhang Gongjin getting more and more embarrassed under Ren Gui's greetings, and he laughed and helped Zhang Gongjin out of trouble.
With Li Shimin interrupting, Zhang Gongjin became more natural when facing Ren Gui.
After Li Shimin 'took care' of Ren Gui, he struck up a conversation with Quan Xu again, exchanged a few simple greetings, and praised Quan Xu's great-grandfather, grandfather, and father, and suddenly 'remembered' him again.
Quan Hongshou, Quan Xu's cousin, served as an official under him.
He immediately sent someone to summon Quan Hongshou to talk to Quan Xu about the past.
Quan Hongshou's reputation was not as prominent as Quan Xu's, but his status under Li Shimin was not low, and his status in the court was not low either.
He served as Chang Shi in Li Shimin's Mansion, which was the position that Li Sixing had previously held in Li Yuanji's Mansion. In the imperial court, he served as Tai Puqing, ranking among the senior officials.
In addition, his title also belongs to Gaojue, and he is granted the title of Duke of Tianshui County.
Although he is weaker than Qin Qiong, Cheng Yaojin and others, no one dares to look down on him or neglect him.
Because the same sentence may not be effective when Qin Qiong, Cheng Yaojin and others said it in the Qin Prince's Mansion or in the court, but Quan Hongshou would definitely say it.
When Quan Hongshou was reminiscing with Quan Xu, it was not as awkward as when Zhang Gongjin and Ren Gui were reminiscing.
On the contrary, Kwon Hongshou and Kwon Wook get along very well.
It was Quan Hongshou who occasionally looked at Quan Xu with a hint of reproach and helplessness in his eyes.
It seems that when Quan Xu joined Li Yuanji, he didn't discuss it with Quan Hongshou, or maybe he didn't discuss it with other members of his family.
Since it was the first time for Li Yuanji to meet Quan Hongshou, and because Quan Hongshou and Quan Xu, whom he had just taken as his disciple, were cousins, he paid more attention to Quan Hongshou and saw the strange look in Quan Hongshou's eyes.
.
But Li Yuanji didn't say anything.
First of all, this kind of situation is not suitable to talk about this kind of thing.
Secondly, no matter what problems there are between Quan Hongshou and Quan Xu, they are Quan's family affairs, and it is not for him to meddle in them.
After Li Yuanji saw Li Shimin reminiscing with "old friends" about Ren Gui and Quan Xu respectively, he jokingly said to Li Shimin: "Second brother's house is really full of talents. By the way, I'm looking for two people to come over, just like the ones from my house.
People are old.
I think Ling Jing is quite lonely now, so why don’t my second brother help Ling Jing find someone with whom he has a relationship?"
When Li Shimin heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and then said with a hearty smile: "Don't tell me, there is indeed someone in my house who has an old relationship with Ling Changshi."
At this point, Li Shimin greeted: "Here comes General Cao, please come over and talk."
As soon as Li Shimin said these words.
Li Yuanji and Ling Jing both raised their eyebrows.
The General Cao Li Shimin mentioned should be Dou Huan's uncle Cao Dan.
Li Shimin addressed other people in the house either by their positions or by their names, but when he addressed Cao Dan, he called him General Cao.
I don't know whether Li Shimin didn't trust Cao Dan and was separated from Cao Dan, so he called Cao Dan that way, or whether Li Shimin recognized Cao Dan's contribution to the Tang Dynasty in offering eight precious seals, so he called him this way.
Show respect for Cao Dan.
If it is the former, then it will be difficult to use Cao Dan to learn some secret information about Li Shimin in the future.
Otherwise, Cao Dan would sooner or later be cut into pieces by Li Shimin.
