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

Chapter 133: A dead friend is not a poor Taoist, as long as he is not unlucky, anyone can be unlucky

Hou Junji!

A famous general in the early Tang Dynasty, he actively participated in the Xuanwu Gate Change. After Li Er ascended the throne, he was named the Duke of Lu and the General of the Right Guard!

In the fourth year of Zhenguan, he paid homage to the Minister of the Ministry of War, participated in the extermination of Turks, and broke Tuyuhun!

Regarding Hou Junji's resume, Liu Bai knew it all by heart.

If Liu Bai had time, he could write Hou Junji's life experience year by year.

He once studied Hou Junji specifically.

It's not because of how powerful Hou Junji is, but because this person is so interesting.

Li Er rebelled, and he participated.

He participated in the Xuanwu Gate Incident.

It can be said that Hou Junji participated in every major event in the Zhenguan Year.

However, he couldn't grasp the opportunity accurately every time, otherwise, with his qualifications, it wouldn't be too much effort to become No. 1 in the dynasty.

As Li's most ferocious general, he probably did more work than Changsun Wuji and Fang Xuanling combined!

But why, his status is not high now?

It's all because this guy has a stinky mouth!

Li Er succeeded in the rebellion, and while others were celebrating, this guy complained that he was rewarded too little.

After the Xuanwumen Incident, when Li Er ascended the throne, everyone else complimented him, but Hou Junji was the only one who boasted. Without him, there would be no Li Er's throne.

Even when it came time to attack the Turks, this guy was also proud of himself.

In the end, filled with resentment, he finally couldn't help the temptation, took advantage of Li Er's tour, and fooled a large group of people into rebellion, and failed!

It's too obvious for such a young man to be a backer for the underworld.

Under the bright and bright world, he can't be the king and hegemony, he just wants to be the king of the black world and live a dry life.

Liu Bai can almost believe that it was all done by the Tanlang Gang.

The purpose is to extort some money from the academy construction site

He had even guessed that Hou Junji didn't know about it at all.

If he knew, he might be pissed off and frightened to death

Thinking of this, Liu Bai was completely relieved.

If it was Zhangsun Wuji, or the Pei family, it might be a little tricky.

But dealing with Hou Junji is really too simple.

Liu Bai even knew himself better than Hou Junji himself

However, this incident also reminded Liu Bai.

The reason why Li Chengqian rebelled in history was [-]% because of Hou Junji's deceit.

Now that he is half of Li Chengqian's "Teacher", it is natural to completely kill the signs of this kind of thing in the cradle!

A smile appeared on his face.

Seeing his smile, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that Liu Bai already has a plan in mind.

"Master, please tell me!"

Shen Wansan had long been used to finding Liu Bai to solve any problems, and asked directly.

Liu Bai waved his hand, and said, "Don't take this matter to heart, just continue with the construction!"

Shen Wansan had no doubts, and retreated with his hands folded.

The rest also left one after another.

Now that Liu Bai has figured out a way, it doesn't make sense for them to stay here.

"Chengqian!"

At this moment, Liu Bai stopped Li Chengqian who was about to go out.

"Brother Liu!"

Li Chengqian agreed habitually, turned his head, and found that Liu Bai was looking at him with a half-smile.

In an instant, the hairs all over Li Chengqian's body stood on end!

"It's going to be bad luck! It's going to be bad luck!"

Li Chengqian shouted wildly in his heart, and his whole body began to tremble.

Whenever Liu Bai showed this kind of smile, someone must be unlucky.

But now, I was the only one left in the study.

If it's not my bad luck, who else could it be?

Li Chengqian turned around stiffly, revealing a smile that was uglier than crying.

"Brother Liuliu, if you have something to do, please tell me, if there is nothing to do."

As he spoke, his feet kept moving towards the door.

Liu Bai beckoned, and said very affectionately: "Chengqian, come here!"

Li Chengqian got goosebumps all over his body, and said with a dry smile: "Brother Liu, I should stay here."

Liu Bai said with a smile: "I heard that His Majesty has promised you the daughter of General Hou, the Hou family, and they will get married when they are 14 years old, right?"

Li Chengqian was taken aback for a moment, then came back to his senses, a rare bit of shame appeared on his small face.

In recent days, he has been hanging out with Cheng Chumo and other scumbags all day long. He has not learned anything else, but has learned a whole body of ruffianism.

It's so rare to make him feel shy

"Yes"

Li Chengqian nodded.

Then, he asked in a 'proud and dry manner': "Brother Liu, do you want to deal with Hou Junji? You don't need to look at me, just kill him!"

As the saying goes, a dead fellow Taoist will not die a poor fellow, as long as he is not unlucky, anyone can be unlucky.

Even if this person is the future father-in-law

In his heart, Li Chengqian mourned for Hou Junji for a moment.

Now, he felt a little pity for his future father-in-law.

It's not good to offend anyone, but Liu Bai, I'm afraid in the end, he doesn't even know how he died!

But Liu Bai shook his head, and said: "Who said I'm going to kill him? Tomorrow you go to Hou Junji's mansion in person and give him a big gift!"

Li Chengqian scratched his head suspiciously.

gift?

It doesn't seem like Liu Bai's style in the past.

But he still nodded obediently.

"I see, I'll go tomorrow morning!"

Liu Bai smiled inscrutablely again, and said, "Go tonight!"

The next night, Li Chengqian took a heavy gift box and went to Hou Junji's mansion under the protection of Xu Chu!

Hou Junji, the Duke of the State, and the second-rank official residence, was left behind in Luoyang by his predecessor, and Xue Wanjun only went to Luoyang after he left office.

Generally speaking, after an official leaves office, he has a rest period of several months before taking up a new official position.

But after Hou Junji resigned from Luoyang, he was idle in Chang'an for two full years, and Li Er didn't order him to take up other official positions!

Explain, only one!

Li Er, he has already begun to distrust Hou Junji!

Therefore, Li Chengqian came to the door and received the most ardent reception from the Hou family!

Since Li Er was neither hot nor cold, Hou Junji naturally put all his hopes on this future son-in-law!

"See Your Royal Highness!"

Hou Junji is only in his forties this year. He is in the prime of his life and has a strong body. He walks with a sense of calm and prestige.

He took the whole family, young and old, to greet him in front of the gate of Hou's house.

Everyone else knelt down on the ground, only he stood with his head held high, looking coquettish.

Even if he is a member of the second rank, he doesn't need to kneel when he sees Li Er in an informal setting, but who is he showing this appearance?

Li Chengqian glanced at him like a fool, but in an instant, he became indifferent.

He has already decided in his heart that this future father-in-law will be played to death by Liu Bai sooner or later.

"I came here because I was entrusted by Big Brother Liu to give General Hou a gift!"

Chapter 134: You have to cherish the things my young master gave you

hall!

Li Chengqian took a sip of Hou's tea, and immediately pouted.

In the few days after the opening after the Chinese New Year, Liu Yexuan has already started selling different kinds of tea.

Even the cheapest one costs several hundred guan!

Moreover, it can be called priceless!

On the black market, Liu Yexuan's tea was overpriced several times.

Nowadays, drinking tea from Liuyexuan has become a fashion.

When literati and inkmen are chatting, if they don't mention Liu Yexuan's tea, they will be regarded as country bumpkins by others.

Hou Junji's family has a great career, and they still entertain people with this kind of grassroots soup?

Li Chengqian, who had been spoiled by all kinds of good tea, simply put the tea bowl back and put the lid on.

Only then did Hou Junji ask: "I don't know Mr. Liu, what gift did you give Hou?"

Li Chengqian waved his hand, but found that there was no movement behind him!

Only then did he remember that it was not the eunuch of the East Palace who was following him, but Xu Chu!

At this moment, Xu Chu was sitting next to him, with a calm expression on his face, as if nothing happened that could move him in the slightest.

Li Chengqian knew Xu Chu's position in Liu Bai's heart.

Not to mention myself, apart from Liu Bai and Liu Wan'er sisters in the whole Liu family, there is no one with a higher status than Xu Chu!

Some time ago, Xu Chu taught himself countless times.

Li Chengqian touched his nose in embarrassment, covered his mouth with one hand, and whispered to Xu Chu: "Brother Xu, Brother Xu!"

Xu Chu glanced at him, lifted a gift box from under his feet, and put it on the table.

The two of them have known each other for a long time, and this scene is quite normal.

But the people of the Hou family have opened their eyes!

As the crown prince, Li Chengqian can be said to be the fourth most noble person in the entire Tang Dynasty, except for the Supreme Emperor, the Emperor and the Empress.

How dare a guard of the Liu family ignore the prince?

Moreover, the prince still called him 'big brother'?

What's the point of this?

Since entering the door, Hou Junji's eyes fell on Xu Chu more times than Li Chengqian.

People who come from the army attach the most importance to martial arts.
