"Who dares to act rashly? Don't blame me for being rude." He looked down at the fallen servant and shouted in a deep voice. Li Jing naturally knew that in this situation, the opportunity must not be lost. The only way is to suppress these things first. Only domestic servants can stabilize the current situation.
Sure enough, Li Jing showed his hand, but it suppressed the servants who originally wanted to avenge his young master. Li Jing glanced at the servants cautiously, and then retreated to Wan He's side. He lowered his voice and said Wan He said: "Brother Wan, let's leave now."
"Uh, let's just leave." Wan He hesitated. This is not a battlefield after all. A person died here. He didn't wait for the government to check, so he just left. Wan He always felt that something was not right. But he went back He turned his head and glanced at the bodies of Li Xiuning and Li Xuanba who were crying. Wan He couldn't help but shuddered. Then he nodded and said, "Okay. Okay. Let's go."
Immediately, Li Jing grabbed Wan He's arm. He protected Wan He and left the Changsun Mansion cautiously. He ran away in a flash. After finally running through a street intersection, the two of them stopped. Wan He He looked mournful and said to Li Jing: "Brother Li, what should we do next?"
Li Jing also looked helpless. Originally he just wanted to visit the eldest son's family. Who would have thought that so many things would happen. But now is not the time to be upset. Li Jing rolled his eyes and then said to Wan He: "Then Li Xuanba is not an ordinary person. Although he was not killed by you, he has a great relationship with you after all. Although you have the Marquis with you now, it is not easy to get away from this matter. Right now we can only find one person. Only Only then can he help us.”
Wan He was completely panicked now. Hearing what Li Jing said, it was like grabbing a life-saving straw. He quickly asked: "Who is it? Who is it? Oh, by the way, what you said is King Yue, right? That's right. He is the emperor's grandson. With him coming forward, everything will be fine."
Li Jing shook his head and said: "That's not right. Although His Royal Highness the King of Yue is the grandson of the emperor, he is still young and does not have much power in his hands. Li Yuan is the cousin of the emperor, so Li Xuanba can be regarded as a relative of the emperor. So Even if we ask His Highness the King of Yue to come forward on this matter, it will be useless."
The glimmer of hope that Wan He had just raised was extinguished with Li Jing's words. Finally, he looked at Li Jing with blank eyes and said with a blank expression: "Then, then, besides the King of Yue, who else can save him? I. Could it be that I have no way out this time?"
"No. There is another person." Li Jing was not as panicked as Wan He. Instead, he said in a deep voice, "That person is Yu Wenshu."
At the Tang Guogong Mansion, the brothers Zhangsun Heng'an and Zhangsun Wuji, who had just met their little sister, were also red-eyed. Especially the eldest Sun Heng'an. When they left home, their little sister was just a child. Now she is married as a woman. Why? I can prevent the eldest son Heng'an from being sentimental. Fortunately, the younger sister seems to be quite happy staying in the Li family. This also gives the eldest son Heng'an some comfort.
After seeing off their little sister, the Changsun Heng'an brothers started chatting with Li Yuan again. After the three of them sat down, Li Yuan looked at the Changsun brothers. A few glints flashed in his eyes from time to time. Needless to say, Changsun Wuji, the boy. Talented. And this eldest son Heng'an is even more heroic. Li Yuan felt itchy in his heart. It would be a great thing to have these two brothers under his command. Thinking of this, Li Yuan couldn't help but smile. Now the eldest grandson's family and the Li family are in-laws. It is not difficult to persuade these two brothers to work for him. Then Li Yuan smiled at the eldest grandson Heng'an and said: "Heng'an's good nephew, I heard that you are in Zhang Serving under General Xutuo. I heard before that General Zhang was fighting against the traitor Gao Shida. Why would my nephew return to Luoyang at this time?"
When the eldest son Heng'an heard this, he quickly replied: "Ah. I forgot to inform my uncle before. Now Heng'an has resigned from the military and no longer serves under Zhang Shuai."
Hearing what Changsun Heng'an said, Li Yuan was stunned for a moment. Then there was a hint of surprise in his heart. If Changsun Heng'an was still working for Zhang Xutuo, it would be better for Li Yuan to start poaching. But now Changsun Heng'an has left. Zhang Xutuo. Isn't that a talent who came to my door? But Li Yuan is not an ordinary person. He quickly suppressed the joy in his heart, squinted his eyes, pretended to be surprised and puzzled, and asked: "Oh General Zhang is one of the few famous generals in the world. If my nephew follows him, he will not have the chance to make meritorious deeds. Why would my nephew leave General Zhang’s tent?"
Li Yuan looked confused. Changsun Wuji was the same. This was the first time he heard Changsun Heng'an talk about this matter. Before, he thought that Changsun Heng'an just asked Zhang Xutuo for leave to come back to visit relatives. But he didn't expect Changsun Heng'an to actually Changsun Wuji, who had resigned from the military and knew his brother very well, immediately guessed that Changsun Heng'an must have some important reasons.
Changsun Heng'an smiled. He had known before that his resignation from the military would be confusing to others, so he had been mentally prepared for it. Changsun Heng'an immediately replied with a smile: "Heng'an was ordered by Commander Zhang before. He went to Liaodong, but he received great kindness from others. In order to repay his kindness, Heng'an has sworn to follow his benefactor all his life. Therefore, he can only resign his military post to Zhang Shuai and follow his benefactor back to Luoyang."
Hearing what Changsun Heng'an said, Changsun Wuji looked shocked. And Li Yuan's face suddenly sank. Changsun Heng'an actually swore to follow that benefactor for the rest of his life. Doesn't that mean that Li Yuan will never have the chance to return? The eldest son Heng'an was poached here. It should be noted that people in this era are not like those in later generations who regard swearing as a fart. People at this time attach great importance to oaths. There are very few people who do not take oaths seriously.
Changsun Wuji shouted in shock: "Second brother, what happened? To make you make such a decision to repay that person's kindness. What kind of favor did that person give you?"
When Changsun Wuji mentioned this matter, Changsun Heng'an's face showed solemnity. He said in a deep voice: "Third brother, my benefactor is not only kind to me, Changsun Heng'an, but also to our entire Changsun family. You know, with the help of my benefactor, the emperor has issued an edict to pardon my uncle's sins. My uncle will be back soon."
"Ah." Changsun Heng'an said this. Li Yuan and Changsun Wuji were immediately startled. They exclaimed almost at the same time. The things Gao Jian committed back then are not big at all. Not small. Speaking of which, Gao Jian and Li Yuan still have a good relationship. Otherwise, Gao Jian would not have promised his niece to Li Yuan's son. But when Gao Jian was implicated last year, Li Yuan also tried his best to do it. The result was that he almost got burned. He had no choice but to give up. So Li Yuan knew very well how difficult it was to ask the emperor to forgive Gao Jian's sins. But now Changsun Heng'an actually said that someone helped him rescue Gao Jian. Doesn't that mean this? People are more capable than him, Li Yuan. Li Yuan's face suddenly showed a questioning expression. He asked: "Xiannephew Heng'an. Are you really sure that your benefactor rescued Mr. Gao? Don't be deceived by others. Already."
"Yes. Regarding the second brother and uncle's matter, Uncle Li also thought of many ways at the beginning, but in the end he still failed. Are you sure that my uncle has really been pardoned." Li Yuan reminded. Changsun Wuji also thought of this. Then questions were raised.
Originally, Li Yuan doubted his statement, which made Changsun Hengan a little unhappy. But even Changsun Wuji said the same thing. Changsun Hengan could only suppress his unhappiness and patiently explained: "There can be no mistake. This matter is mine. I saw it with my own eyes, heard it with my own ears, and today I personally issued an edict to forgive my uncle’s sins.”
Changsun Heng'an was fine if he didn't say this. When he said the last sentence, Li Yuan and Changsun Wuji were even more surprised. Changsun Wuji looked at Changsun Heng'an in disbelief and exclaimed: "Second brother, you... have you seen it?" He is now a saint." Li Yuan also widened his eyes. He knew very well who Yang Guang was. Changsun Hengan was just a pawn under Zhang Xutuo. Even if he had made some achievements, he would never be qualified. Holy face.
Seeing the expressions of Li Yuan and Changsun Wuji, Changsun Heng'an also showed a rare look of pride on his face. He said: "Yes. It is because of my benefactor that I was fortunate enough to meet with the Holy One. It is also because of my benefactor. After fighting hard, he won the mercy of the Holy One and pardoned his uncle. Therefore, our eldest grandson family owes our benefactor a huge debt of gratitude. Heng'an is willing to spend his whole life to repay his kindness to his benefactor. After all, Heng'an still owes something. "
Although he was still surprised, after listening to what his brother said, Changsun Wuji nodded vigorously and agreed. Gao Jian was like a parent to the three brothers and sisters. The benefactor the brother said saved Gao Jian. For their brother and sister, the kindness was naturally overwhelming. There is nothing wrong with the eldest son, Heng'an, following his benefactor to repay his kindness.
At this moment, Li Yuan also calmed down. He lowered his head and thought about it. He immediately understood. He smiled and said to his eldest grandson, Heng'an: "My nephew, Heng'an. Could it be that your benefactor is here to protect your son and become a general?"
In Li Yuan's opinion, there were only a few people who accompanied him on the expedition to Liaodong this time who had the ability to save Gao Jian. The people who came to protect his son were veterans of the court. They had always been favored by the emperor. It would have been wrong if he had spoken to the emperor to plead for mercy. It's not impossible. What's more important is that Lai Hu'er and Chang Sun Sheng participated in the battle to destroy Chen. Counting it, there is a bit of love in it. If Chang Sun Heng'an went to Lai Hu'er to plead with Lai Hu'er and Lai Hu'er came forward to help. Then It's also reasonable.
