In May, it is the beginning of summer.The temple of manna at night is quiet.In the garden behind the palace, there is a small table at this time, and on the table are all Li Zhi's favorite snacks.The bright moon hung high above his head, feeling a hint of coolness brought by the night breeze, Li Zhi sat in the rocking chair, his eyes slightly closed, and seemed to be about to fall asleep.Wu Meiniang watched the two-year-old Li Hong holding the one-year-old Li Si, under the care of the palace people and the inner servants, swaying and playing in the garden, and couldn't help but sneer: "I want to run before I learn to walk." ”After speaking, she reached out and took her and Li Zhi's third child, Li Xian, from the nurse on the side.Not long after giving birth to Princess Anding last year, she became pregnant with Li Xian.In a sense, Wu Mei and Li Zhi are extremely affectionate, with almost one child a year in history, and four sons and two daughters were born before and after.Li Xian was the later Prince Zhang Huai.gently patted Li Xian in her arms, and looked at the child's big black and white eyes looking at herself quietly, Wu Meiniang felt inexplicably peaceful.At this moment, she heard Li Zhi lying in the rocking chair let out a sigh, and couldn't help but ask in surprise: "Jiulang, what's wrong?"
”"I had a momentary feeling, you see, this rocking chair was made by Ami, this ice was also made and offered by him, this wine, I heard that he also made it himself, and the whale oil lamp used here, and this thing......"
He said, reaching out and picking up a toothbrush from the table.This is a rare thing just presented by the palace people today, and it is said to be made by Su Dawei.Compared with the first toothbrush at the beginning, Li Zhi's current one is undoubtedly much more exquisite.It is finely polished with animal bones, and the shape is very close to the toothbrush of later generations, and the hair on the brush head is made of animal bristles.After Li Zhi tried it, he felt very strange and couldn't put it down.He has decided that in the future, he will use this thing to clean his teeth, compared to rubbing his teeth with green salt, this toothbrush is simply a divine object.A small thing, a big problem.It's like the rocking chair he is sitting on now, and after Li Zhi uses it, he can't leave it anymore.Before that, he never thought that the beard stool he had used since he was a child and made some changes to his feet could become so comfortable.Wu Meiniang didn't know why for a while, and said with a smile: "Ami makes these things for convenience, he is very smart." ”"It's really smart."
Li Zhi nodded, and the light in his eyes moved slightly: "From the beginning of being a bad person, in just a few years, up to you and me, up to the Duke of Eguo, the Duke of Danyang County, down to the county jun, the Public Transport Department, and Hu Shang, all of them can get through the joints." ”"Jiurou, what do you mean by that?"
Wu Meiniang's expression changed slightly."
Mei Niang, don't worry, Ami is your younger brother, then just like my relatives, I have no ill will towards him."
Li Zhi smiled at her and said: "It's just that sometimes I can't help but be surprised, in a person, there can be so many discoveries, such a strong connection, he is still young now, if he polishes it a little, he will definitely be able to become my Tang Dynasty minister in the future." ”Hearing Li Zhi say this, Wu Meiniang was a little relieved, and thought for a while: "Jiulang, you shouldn't blame Ami for what happened last time, right?"
”The last incident refers to the matter of the Turkic wolf guard.This matter is a tacit secret between Li Zhi and Wu Meiniang, and only a few people know about it.Su Dawei obviously didn't know the inside story.But last time he teamed up with Di Renjie, he almost ruined Li Zhi's plan."
How come, he's your brother, he's smart and capable, it's too late for me to be happy."
Li Zhi waved his hand: "It is really unexpected to be able to do this step without knowing it, but fortunately, Li Chunfeng's response was timely and he did not act indiscriminately, so that I could see the overall situation clearly." ”Wu Meiniang nodded.Last time, there was Li Chunfeng and a group of strangers in the palace.Daming Palace has the Beidou Division of the Taishi Bureau.Just wait for all the people who are hiding in the shadows to jump out.But because Su Dawei was too capable of acting, in the end, he failed to get all his wishes.Of course, the result is not too bad, at least some people in the DPRK and China, Li Zhi can see it clearly.At the same time, because of what happened last time, I couldn't help but be secretly surprised when I saw the connections and power that Su Dawei could use in his hands."
Mei Niang, I have an idea.""
What thoughts?""
This time, Su Dingfang used troops, let him bring Ami with him.""
This ......"
"I know you are reluctant, but the heavens will descend on a great task, and you must first suffer your mind."
Ami had been in the limelight in Chang'an before, so let him go out to practice at this time, so that he could temporarily avoid the limelight; second, it can allow him to polish more in the army; Finally, Su Dingfang's side also needs someone like Ami, who can help him integrate the news of the scouts in the army and eliminate hidden dangers. ”Li Zhi said it a little vaguely, but Wu Meiniang understood.Previously, Su Dingfang used troops against Goguryeo, although the battle report said that it was a "big victory", and Su Dingfang was also rewarded.But in fact, the results were not great.The most important problem was that Goguryeo knew the news of Su Dingfang's advance in advance, and prepared in advance for a long-term confrontation.Li Zhi did not blame Su Dingfang.Whether it was him or Su Dingfang, they were extremely angry about the leakage of the news of the expedition to Goguryeo, and they held back their anger."
The enemy of the Tang Dynasty is not outside, but in the heart......"
"Su Dingfang must use troops, and he must win a big victory, with this skill, I can establish enough prestige and have the confidence to do something......"
Li Zhi said slowly in a low voice."
So this time with the army, only success is allowed, not failure, Ami has the ability, let him help me.I have already mentioned Su Dingfang before, he should recruit Ami to accompany the army, but you are ...... here" Wu Meiniang's face changed, she didn't say a word, lowered her head and gently patted Li Xian, coaxing the child to sleep.From her face, Li Zhi could see that she was unhappy."
Now that you've decided, tell me what to do now?""
Mei Niang, I ......"
"You are the Son of Heaven, do what you decide, ask me what a woman does.""
Hey, Mei Niang, don't I respect you, you and I are one husband and wife."
Li Zhi stood up, hugged Wu Meiniang, and coaxed her in a low voice.The night is quiet again, and the breeze is slowly coming, inducing people to sleep.In May of the sixth year of Yonghui, Su Dingfang followed Cheng Zhijie, the chief of the march of the Green Mountain Road, to conquer the Western Turks and was appointed as the former army commander.And in such an army, there is one more bad person, but no one notices.The large army camp stretched for miles.This way, starting from Chang'an, passing through Hetao and Lin, then Yanran Duhufu, and then turning over the Altai Mountains, the march was extremely difficult.As for the Hexi Corridor in later generations, it was still a desert at this time.In the big tent of the Chinese army, the commander of the middle was quite disregarded for his image, his helmet was thrown aside, and he was grabbing a roast rabbit with both hands, eating a large piece, chewing it, and praised: "Ami, your barbecue skills are really good, much better than your skills." ”It is the demon king of the mixed world often mentioned in the romance that Cheng bites Jin, Cheng Zhijie.Although he and Su Dawei met for the first time in the army, his son Cheng Chuhei was very close to Su Dawei, and participated in Su Dawei's business.almost slapped Su Dawei and squatted down.God knows where this demon king of the mixed world came from to be so powerful, so much so that Su Dawei once suspected that he was trying to give himself a dismount.Next, Cheng Zhijie, an old man who has no face and no skin, actually invited Su Dawei to play a corner show.That is, wrestling in the army is a play.In the name of it, the army exchanges emotions like this, and if Su Dawei wants everyone to recognize, he must come and play two.Su Dawei naturally didn't dare to use his alien skills, let alone injure the commander of the Tang Army in the barracks, and finally tied his hands and feet, and was taken by Cheng Zhijie, lifting his belt and falling out of the circle.This old man clearly knew that Su Dawei was giving in, but he didn't brag about it without shame, which made Su Dawei scold a few times in his heart.Only later did I know that Cheng Zhijie actually played a sassy operation, betting on the sidelines to buy himself to win.Not only did he win face, but he also won some five baht money.Although it is not much, seeing Cheng Zhijie smiling without eyebrows, not only is he not ashamed, but he also seems to enjoy this feeling of taking advantage.This made Su Dawei a little depressed.I always feel that Li Zhi asked Cheng Zhijie to be the coach of the Western Turks, is it a little unreliable?
But there is a mistake, after yesterday's corner play, Su Dawei now ran to the coach's tent in a grand manner.Other generals in the army vaguely guessed that Su Dawei had an old relationship with the coach Cheng Zhijie, but no one went to save face of the old devil Cheng.Otherwise, this old guy can really slap people in the face.In terms of shamelessness, in the Tang Army now, no one can go out to know the right of the festival.In this army, in addition to Cheng Zhijie, the highest military rank is Su Dingfang, who is now the general of the right Tunwei, the Duke of Linqing County, is the deputy marshal of the Western Expeditionary Army, and is currently sitting on Cheng Zhijie's left hand seat.Sitting on Cheng Zhijie's right hand is Wang Wendu, the deputy head of the army.This person Su Dawei has not heard much, and he doesn't know the root corners, but he only heard that it was ordered by Li Zhi himself.That's probably Li Zhi's people?
In addition to Su Dingfang and Wang Wendu, there are also generals in the army, who sit in the tent according to their positions.As for Su Dawei, he was more miserable, busy with Zhang Luo barbecue in the big tent.While he was busy, he had to listen to Cheng Biting Jin laughing wildly, and Tian shamelessly boasted that he made the best use of his talents and materials.Nima, you are the thing.Su Dawei couldn't help but slander in his heart.Listening to these Tang army leaders boasting about their glorious achievements in the past while eating and drinking, gradually, they also heard some doorways.()
