Datang: Huchi served as a bodyguard, but refused to enter the court as an official

"Could it be that brother Liu is a god?" He murmured.

In the past few days, "Journey to the West" is talking about the scene where the Dragon King of the Four Seas summons the wind and rain. Li Chengqian, who is fascinated by "Journey to the West", subconsciously thinks that the rain was summoned by Liu Bai.

How can a mortal know that it will rain soon when it is sunny?

When he saw that Xu Chu took out a huge umbrella and covered Liu Bai's head, he became more and more sure of his thoughts.

They were out early in the morning, and the weather was even better in the morning, cloudless!

Li Chengqian thought he had discovered a big secret, so he swished, and ran to Liu Bai again.

"Brother Liu, I will definitely keep it a secret!"

His eyes were full of admiration, and he was secretly screaming in his heart.

"Brother Liu is a god, I must let him teach me the art of immortality!"

Liu Bai was taken aback by what he said.

What's going on with this guy?

"Keeping what secret?"

Li Chengqian put on a mysterious look, lowered his voice and said, "Brother Liu, don't lie to me anymore, which Dragon King you are, just tell me directly!"

Liu Bai was even more confused, and patted Li Chengqian on the forehead.

"You've burned out your brain before you got in the rain?"

When Li Chengqian said his thoughts, Liu Bai couldn't laugh or cry.

Listening to the book and hearing this level is enough

The reason why he knew it was going to rain was because he had acquired the ability to "watch the wind and measure the rain" from the "Zhuge Liang Experience Card", otherwise he would not have chosen to plant potato seedlings in these few days.

With this rain, even the drum was saved.

But never thought that Li Chengqian would think that he was the legendary dragon king who walks the clouds and spreads the rain

But he didn't bother to explain anything.

With Li Chengqian's strange thinking, I don't know how many weird questions there will be in the future.

Could it be that Liu Bai has to answer him?

"Don't think about these messy things, go home quickly, there are still many things to do tomorrow!"

Li Chengqian thought Liu Bai had acquiesced, so he nodded quickly.

In order to please Liu Bai, he insisted on taking the big umbrella from Xu Chu's hand, opened it for Liu Bai himself, followed Liu Bai step by step, and walked towards home.

The timely rain saved Liu Bai a lot of trouble when planting potato seedlings.

However, Li Er, who was standing at the gate of the Zichen Hall in the imperial palace, had a sad expression on his face.

"Guanyin maidservant, what Liu Bai said really came true. I have lived for decades, and this is the first time I see rain in the twelfth lunar month! The weather has already warmed up before the Chinese New Year. It seems that next year's locust plague will be unstoppable."

Empress Changsun comforted: "Your Majesty, since Liu Bai has proposed countermeasures, he must be sure enough."

Li Er shook his head, and said: "I have never doubted Liu Bai's ability, but the world is preliminarily determined, this locust plague, I don't know how much turmoil it will cause."

He took a deep breath and said, "Forget it, it's about next year, so it's useless to worry about it now."

As he spoke, he forced a smile and said: "I haven't seen Chengqian for a few days, but I really miss him a little. I don't know how he is doing in Liu's house?"

Speaking of her son, Empress Changsun also had a smile on her face.

"I heard that Chengqian has been very good recently, and he's still learning how to farm with Liu Bai!"

Li Er nodded, and said: "Liu Bai still has a solution. Chengqian will inherit the throne sooner or later. It is much better to experience the hardships of people's livelihood earlier than to hang out in the palace all day."

Chapter 69: These days, it is so difficult to find a chance to repay favors

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, but Li Er had no intention of returning to Zichen Palace.

He kept looking into the distance, as if waiting for something.

Suddenly, several figures jumped down from the distant palace wall.

They were all wearing night clothes, like ghosts, approaching Zichen Palace quickly.

The Ouchi guards who were patrolling around suddenly became vigilant, drew their weapons one after another, and planned to surround the night walkers.

But when they saw a mark on the clothes of the night walkers, they put away their weapons and continued patrolling, letting the night walkers run towards Li Er.

Empress Changsun, who was standing behind Li Er, didn't find it strange at all, and quietly retreated into the hall.

The other eunuchs and maids also retreated, leaving Wynn alone.

"See Your Majesty!"

Several night walkers knelt down at Li Er's feet.

"Be flat!"

The night walker headed by handed a pamphlet to Wynn.

"Your Majesty Qizuo, the Baiqi Division and the leaders of the various divisions who stayed behind in various places have returned to Chang'an to report on their duties!"

Li Er took the booklet from Wynn's hand, flipped through it, and said lightly, "Is there any change in various places?"

"There is no change in any place, except that the Pei family in Hedong and Lord Changsun each sent [-] generals to Youzhou in secret!"

Li Er frowned, "What do they want to do?"

Baiqisi is an intelligence agency founded by him.

When the army rebelled, it played a huge role. After the founding of the Tang Dynasty, it became an organization that secretly monitored the aristocratic families and the court officials.

He is too aware of the consequences of the party's disputes and the consequences of his relatives interfering in politics.

The Li family in Guanlong back then was a relative of the Yang family in the Sui Dynasty!

Therefore, he paid special attention to important court officials like Changsun Wuji.

The Pei family of Hedong and Changsun Wuji each sent 1000 generals, which is a total of [-] people!

If it was in Chang'an, it would naturally not be able to cause any disturbances, but in other places, it would be quite a force.

"Returning to Your Majesty, when the Cui family was destroyed, its iron mine in Youzhou became ownerless."

Ye Xingren told the story of his eldest Sun Wuji sending his second son, eldest Sun Huan, to Youzhou to fight for the cast iron business.

"Is there still something about Liu Bai here?"

"Yes, Your Majesty, Shen Wansan, the big shopkeeper under Liu Bai, has already obtained the Cui family's cast iron business. The eldest Sun Huan and Pei Xuanji, the son of the Pei family in Hedong, became angry because of this, so they dispatched their generals to block the iron ore business road. The caravan of the Liu family!"

Li Er's face turned cold.

"Changsun Wuji is a dignified Zhao Guogong after all, and he actually used this kind of low-handed means to do business?!"

The family will be the backbone of a big family, loyal to the family head for generations, and there has never been a rebellion.

To put it bluntly, they are the dead soldiers on the face of a family!

Changsun Huan is not yet qualified to mobilize family generals, that is to say, even if he doesn't know Changsun Wuji's idea of ​​blocking Liu's caravan, he knows it!

If he were to do other things, Li Er could ignore it, or even secretly send people to fight with him.

As an emperor, what he pays attention to is checks and balances. He likes to see the ministers in the court criticize each other.

However, it's different when it comes to Liu Bai!

Li Er once made an oath in front of Liu Yongnian's spiritual seat to protect the Liu family, how could he break his promise?

Thousands of well-equipped and extraordinary generals, against the last caravan, the outcome can be imagined!

"Chai Shao is now stationed in Youzhou, can Shen Wansan go look for him?"

Ye Xingren replied honestly: "According to reports from the spies dormant in the army, Shen Wansan once held Liu Bai's autographed letter and went to Chai Guogong for help. General!"

Li Er made a decisive decision and said: "Send someone eight hundred miles to hurry up and tell Chai Shao that I will allow him to use two thousand elite soldiers."

As he said that, the fierce look in his eyes flashed past.

"Don't show mercy!"

In order to attack the Turks, Li Er sent a total of six armies, all commanded by veterans in the army.

The right guard under the command of Chai Shao was ordered to be stationed in Youzhou to prevent surprise attacks by the Eastern Turks.

The urgent imperial edict was sent to Chai Shao at noon on the third day.

"This imperial edict shows His Majesty's love for Liu Bai."

In the big tent of the Chinese army, Chai Shao couldn't help sighing a little while holding the edict.

He had led soldiers all his life, and this was the first time he saw Li Er use eight hundred miles to rush and talk about things that had nothing to do with the war.

The middle-aged man sitting on the left side of Chai Shao's head was Shen Wansan.

He stood up and bowed in the direction of Chang'an.

"After returning to Jingyang, Shen will definitely report to the young master, His Majesty's grace!"

Chai Shao chuckled, shook his head, and said, "However, Your Majesty still underestimated Liu Bai."

After finishing speaking, he turned his gaze to a middle-aged general sitting opposite Shen Wansan, and even shook the edict in his hand.

"Did you see it? This is an order from His Majesty himself, so naturally the Commander will send troops!"

The middle-aged general grimaced, "My family's chief governor repeated orders and repeated requests to ask the last general to dissuade the general. I must let the local soldiers of Youzhou solve this matter!"

Chai Shao stared, "Your Majesty has issued an order, how dare Li Daliang resist the order? This soldier, I am the commander-in-chief!"

"Don't embarrass the general anymore, Commander. If you can't help Mr. Liu, you will definitely be punished by the governor!"

"That's your business, it has nothing to do with me!"

"But"

Those who don't know may think that they are fighting for some unworldly meritorious deeds.

No one would have imagined that the two of them were vying to help Liu Bai!

Seeing this scene, Shen Wansan was completely convinced.

"I've exhausted all the tricks, I didn't expect the young master to have a solution already."

He knew that his family's robbing of the cast iron business would definitely attract dissatisfaction from the Pei family and the eldest grandson's family, so he secretly found out that the two families had gathered thousands of generals to block the Liu family's caravan.

Regardless of past and present lives, Shen Wansan is still a businessman after all, and has never dealt with the army.

After hearing the news, he immediately panicked and planned to ask Chai Shao to come forward.

Unexpectedly, the lieutenant general of Li Daliang, the governor of Youzhou, came to the door on his own initiative, rushing to help

Now, he even feels sorry for the generals of the eldest grandson's family and the Pei family.

Chai Shao's right guard and Li Daliang's Youzhou government soldiers are both first-class elite soldiers in the world, who can win against them?

Shen Wansan mourned in silence for the generals of those two families, and the debate between Chai Shao and the lieutenant finally came to an end.

"I am generous, don't care about Li Daliang. My right guard will send [-] troops, and you Youzhou government soldiers will also send [-] troops. When the time comes, surround the culprits and give Your Majesty and Liu Bai a result as soon as possible!"

"Thank you, Commander, thank you, Commander!"

The deputy general thanked him for a long time before taking his leave.

Walking outside the big tent, he wiped off his sweat and murmured, "Damn, it's so difficult to find a chance to repay favors these days."

Chapter 70: The [-]-strong army hasn't even drawn out their weapons, yet it's over like this?

The land of Youzhou is mountainous, and the roads are rugged, and green forests often cut trails.

Changsun Huan and Pei Xuanji deliberately chose a mountain that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and intends to intercept Liu's caravan here!

They had inquired a long time ago that this mountain was the only way for Shen Wansan to return to Jingyang from Youzhou!

Thousands of generals were all dressed in colorful clothes, lying on the grass, not paying attention, they really didn't know that there were so many people hidden here.

On the top of a hill not far away, Changsun Huan and Pei Xuanji stood side by side, staring at the mountain pass, their eyes full of viciousness.

"We must let Shen Wansan know how powerful my eldest grandson's family is. He dares to compete with me for business. He is getting impatient!"
