"That's good, let's go and talk to the Chinese army's tent."
Li Yuanji smiled with satisfaction and asked Uncle Xie to lead the way.
Xie Shufang stood up quickly, and a group of generals also stood up quickly. Like a guard of honor, the group personally cleared the way for Li Yuanji and led Li Yuanji to the Chinese army's tent.
When Xie Shufang and others stood up, the rest of the soldiers also stood up and began to do their own things and became busy.
When he arrived at the Chinese army's tent, Li Yuanji quickly sat down on the treasure couch in the middle of the tent. After the others stood or sat and found their seats, he slowly said: "After the previous experience,
After the rebellion in the palace, how did the soldiers in the camp react?"
Xie Shufang and others looked at me and I looked at you, but they didn't answer, and their expressions were a little weird.
Such a big thing happened in the palace, and there was another major change of power in the Tang Dynasty. Of course, the soldiers in the camp would react, and the reaction was quite violent.
However, it was difficult for them to tell Li Yuanji.
Because the soldiers in the camp reacted most often to questions like, 'Is His Highness going to be the emperor?', 'Are we going to become the emperor's personal soldiers?' and so on.
】
As Li Yuanji's confidants, they knew that Li Yuanji had no intention of visiting Dabao for the time being, so it was not easy for them to tell Li Yuanji such things.
Seeing that no one was speaking, Li Yuanji couldn't help but ask again, "Is there any?"
This time the tone was accentuated.
When Xie Shufang and others heard this, they all spoke.
"have……"
"No……"
"..."
Some people said yes, some people said no, and everyone was talking about it. After finishing speaking, they all looked at the colleagues around them in a daze.
Li Yuanji frowned and looked at Xie Shufang without saying anything.
This is when a representative is needed.
The representative spoke.
After Xie Shufang took a deep breath, he said decisively: "No!"
Li Yuanji nodded thoughtfully and did not ask any more questions on this issue.
Judging from the reactions of the generals in the camp, the soldiers in the camp must have reacted, but this kind of reaction is difficult to express, so Uncle Xie said no.
The reaction of the soldiers in the camp must be harmless, otherwise Xie Shufang would not know it, let alone choose to conceal it.
So there is no need to chase and get to the bottom of it.
Li Yuanji signaled the generals to relax, and chatted with them about some interesting things that often happened in the military camp, as well as some family disputes, before getting down to business.
"I sent people to send Qin Qiong, Yuchi Gong, Cheng Yaojin and others here to recover from their injuries. How are they doing?"
Li Yuanji stared at Xie Shufang and asked.
Xie Shufang cupped his hands and said: "They are all seriously injured. Although they have woken up, they still need to stay in bed to rest."
Speaking of this, Xie Shufang hesitated.
Seeing this, Li Yuanji said: "If you have anything to say, just say it out loud. Don't be hesitant."
Xie Shufang's face darkened slightly, and he said in a solemn tone: "The doctor in the army said that Qin Qiong, Duke of Yi State, has been fighting on the battlefield all year round and has been injured numerous times, which has already damaged his roots. This time he suffered very serious injuries.
After you recover, it will be difficult to go to the battlefield again."
The meaning of this is that Qin Qiong is useless and can only rest on his credit book and wait to die.
Although Qin Qiong is also resourceful, compared to Li Jing and Li Shiji, Su Dingfang is still a little inferior, so he relies on force to make a living on the battlefield. Now that he is disabled, it means that he will never be able to appear on the battlefield again.
Unlike Li Jing, Li Shiji, Su Dingfang and others, even if they are dead, as long as their brains are still there, they can still dominate the battlefield.
As soon as Xie Shufang said this, everyone in the big tent who didn't know what was going on changed their faces. Some showed surprise, some showed regret, some showed pity, but no one showed gloating.
Because most of them relied on force to make a living, they would most likely end up in the same fate as Qin Qiong, so they were not qualified to gloat over Qin Qiong's misfortune.
"How...how could this happen?"
Cai Yungong asked anxiously after being stunned for a long time with his mouth open.
Although his friendship with Qin Qiong is not deep, it can even be said that there is not much friendship, but he heard that Qin Qiong, a powerful general who can dominate the battlefield, has just reached middle age and will say goodbye to the battlefield completely.
He couldn't believe it, and felt sorry for Qin Qiong's arrival.
Among all the people present, Li Yuanji was the only one who calmly accepted this matter, because Qin Qiong, like Luo Shixin, is the kind of strong general who must fight for the first place in every battle. From the moment he steps onto the battlefield, he has been on the charge.
, the injuries he has suffered are naturally countless.
The hematopoietic function in the body simply cannot keep up with their consumption rate.
The body simply cannot withstand such torture.
Therefore, after suffering a serious injury or losing a lot of blood, the illnesses and hidden diseases accumulated over the years will burst out together, completely destroying their bodies and making it impossible for them to gallop on the battlefield.
Historically, Luo Shixin died early, so his illnesses and hidden diseases had no chance to emerge.
Qin Qiong lived until the twelfth year of Zhenguan, so all the diseases and hidden diseases in his body broke out. From the ninth year of Wude to the twelfth year of Zhenguan, he never appeared on the battlefield again. He has been recuperating and suffering.
Suffering from illness until death.
Although it is still early in the ninth year of Wude, Qin Qiong was severely damaged in the previous coup in the palace, and it is reasonable that his illnesses and hidden illnesses were exposed at the same time.
However, Li Yuanji did not think Qin Qiong was useless because of this and gave up on Qin Qiong.
On the contrary, he felt that Qin Qiong could continue to shine for Datang.
If you can't be a general who charges into battle, then you can be an instructor who trains elite soldiers and strong generals. If you can't be an instructor who trains elite soldiers and strong generals, you can also be a military strategist who compiles military books. If that doesn't work, you can also be a minister in the Ministry of War and advise on military matters.
In short, in Li Yuanji's view, Qin Qiong is useful as long as he lives, and he can find countless places where Qin Qiong is needed.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The premise is that Qin Qiong will willingly join her after knowing that she has been 'sold'.
"Qin Qiong, Duke of Yi Kingdom, spent half his life in the army. He fought more than 200 battles, large and small, and probably shed more than 20 fights of blood in total. (This is not an exaggeration by the author, it is Qin Qiong's original words, but the unit of measurement is dendrobium, one
Dendrobium is equal to five bushels of dendrobium. Qin Qiong often told people when she was sick that she had several bushels of blood.) It makes sense that old illnesses are now occurring at the same time under the influence of new illnesses, and it is no longer possible to carry out surgery.
middle.
I am afraid that one day I will end up with the same fate."
Xie Shufang sighed with regret and answered Cai Yungong's question.
Cai Yungong said anxiously: "Is there no way to take good care of it? Let the doctors in the army take a look at it and see if there is any way to take good care of it. If such a pillar of the country can't go to the battlefield if he is here, then for us, the Tang Dynasty,
It will be a huge loss.”
Uncle Xie sighed and shook his head.
He has already asked the military doctors, and they all agreed that if Qin Qiong was raised, he could live a few more years, but it would be impossible for him to go to the battlefield again.
"Take me to see it."
Li Yuanji did not participate in this topic, but stood up and asked Xie Shufang to take him to see Qin Qiong.
Xie Shufang nodded and took Li Yuanji to the place where Qin Qiong and others were recuperating. Others wanted to follow, but were stopped by Li Yuanji, who only took Cai Yungong with him.
The place where Qin Qiong and others were recuperating was halfway up the hill.
I don’t know who asked people to dig several cave dwellings on the mountainside, and Qin Qiong and others lived in the cave dwellings.
It's not that Xie Shufang couldn't provide better accommodation for Qin Qiong and the others, but Qin Qiong and the others were injured so suddenly that Xie Shufang couldn't prepare in advance. When Qin Qiong and the others arrived at the military camp, he worked overtime to provide for Qin Qiong and the others.
If an individual builds a residence, it will be difficult to complete it in a short period of time. Once completed, it will take more than half a year to complete the work.
So Xie Shufang discussed with his men and cleared out the cave dwellings where the descendants of the emperor's relatives lived halfway up the mountain, allowing Qin Qiong and others to live in them.
In the eyes of most people who don't know much about cave dwellings, cave dwellings are not considered a good place to live, and they look a bit shabby from the outside.
But in the eyes of people who understand cave dwellings, cave dwellings are definitely a good place to live.
Not only is it easy to build and clean up, but it also comes with natural air conditioning.
It is warm in winter and cool in summer, which is very suitable for Qin Qiong and several wounded people who cannot catch cold to recuperate.
When Li Yuanji followed Xie Shufang to the cave where Qin Qiong lived, he heard Cheng Yaojin bragging.
"Da Laohei, let me tell you, if I hadn't killed Shan Xiongxin with my quick eyesight and quick hands, all of us would have been killed by that melon skin of Li Shiji.
At that time, Wang Shichong was defeated and Shan Xiongxin was captured. The saint personally ordered His Highness to chop off Shan Xiongxin's head.
That melon Li Shiji even went out to intercede with Shan Xiongxin. You don’t know that His Highness looked at those of us who had an old relationship with Shan Xiongxin and looked wrong.
It was me who cut off Shan Xiongxin’s head at the critical moment, and that saved us people.”
"Can you please stop calling me Big Black?!"
"You have been burnt to a black coal by the smoke and fire. If not, why would you be called Big Lao Hei?"
"Shu Bao is also blackened. Why don't you call Shu Bao Lao Hei?"
"Shu Bao, that's my brother. If I tease him, he will be violent to me. I can't fight back, so I can only tease you."
"I'm easy to bully, right?!"
"It wasn't easy to bully before, but now...hehehehehe."
"Taking advantage of others' danger is the behavior of a villain."
"Okay, okay, I just called you a few words "Big Lao Hei", why do you become a villain? Don't you want to know why the saint can't tolerate Shan Xiongxin for a moment, and insists on letting His Highness capture Shan Xiongxin,
Kill Shan Xiongxin immediately?
Don't you want to know what that idiot Li Shiji did when Shan Xiongxin was dying?"
"You have said this more than 800 times. When Shan Xiongxin died, Li Shiji cut off a piece of his own meat and gave it to Shan Xiongxin to eat. He also said that he would take care of Shan Xiongxin's family in order to fulfill the oath he made back then.
Speaking of which, Li Shiji is more loyal than you!"
"Bah! Don't look at the popular rumors that Guapi is a loyal person, but his heart is actually darker than the bottom of a cauldron. The reason why Guapi helped Shan Xiongxin to plead for mercy is probably because he was pretending to show His Highness."
"Even if he is pretending, he is still pretending to be more loyal than you."
"What do you know? In that situation, there was no way we could pretend, otherwise we would have to die with Shan Xiongxin."
"Isn't that an exaggeration? Shan Xiongxin just almost injured His Highness on the battlefield. With His Highness's big heart, as long as Shan Xiongxin is willing to surrender, Your Highness will not mind this."
"Haha, you had just surrendered at that time, and you didn't understand the details at all. Shan Xiongxin almost hurt His Highness, and Shan Xiongxin almost killed King Qi!
The saint issued three decrees in one day, asking His Highness whether he wanted to murder his brother.
In order to protect King Qi's face and let King Qi calm down, His Highness took the matter on himself, and swore to King Qi and the saint that he must take Shan Xiongxin's dog head to vent his anger on King Qi.
At that time, both the saint and the King of Qi were watching, so after Shan Xiongxin was captured, the King of Qi immediately sent someone to deliver a message to the saint. After the saint got the letter, he ordered His Highness to behead Shan Xiongxin without saying a word.
Do you think His Highness should chop it off?
If he doesn't chop King Qi, he will bite him to death, saying that His Highness really wants to murder him.
The saint will also punish His Highness for this."
"I didn't expect that there is such a complicated inner story in this matter? The reason why you can't intercede for Shan Xiongxin is because this matter is what His Highness gave to the saint and King Qi. You can't ruin His Highness because of your so-called loyalty.
The father-son relationship with the saint cannot destroy the brotherly relationship between His Highness and the King of Qi."
"Who says it's not..."
"But if this is just the case, if you help Shan Xiongxin plead for mercy, His Highness won't embarrass you too much, right? He won't have any murderous intention towards you, right?"
"This...I don't know the inside story here. Maybe His Highness had a reason to protect the relationship between father and son."
Cheng Yaojin's voice began to become shaky, and the meaning of his words became ambiguous.
Li Yuanji shook his head dumbfounded and stepped into the cave. Cheng Yaojin looked like he had a secret but couldn't explain it clearly. He smiled calmly and said, "If it's not convenient for you to say it, I can say it for you."
It's just that Li Yuan promised Li Shimin the crown prince position, and Li Shimin believed it, and felt that he had achieved extraordinary feats by defeating Wang Shichong and Dou Jiande, and the crown prince position should be guaranteed.
In order to prevent Li Yuan from making a fuss about Shan Xiongxin's affairs, in order to ensure nothing goes wrong.
He must kill Shan Xiongxin according to his promise to Li Yuan.
If the Wagang people gathered to plead for mercy and blocked his way to save Shan Xiongxin, he would also kill them.
Maybe he won't kill them all, but he will never let go of the leading ones.
Because compared to the position of prince that he cherishes so much, compared to the position of supreme being behind the position of prince, Wagang and the others are not incapable of killing.
If you feel guilty, you can just compensate for the kindness given to the descendants of Wagang after arriving at Dabao.
This is standard imperial thought.
In front of the throne, there is nothing that cannot be sacrificed.
All you need to care about is whether it's worth it.
