Datang: The prince of salted fish was overheard by Li Er

Chapter 18 It's not good, Mr. Pei is calling

That night, Fang Du begged to see His Majesty, but the door was closed, and the news that Changsun Wuji couldn't find him spread all over the circle of senior officials in Chang'an.

The eldest grandson Wuji came out of the palace, but he didn't go home directly, but went to the Cuihua Building in Dongshi last year.

Cuihualou is the property of Changsun Wuji, he came here to meet someone.

This person is Li Youliang mentioned by Empress Changsun just now.

"Uncle Guo, you really want to help me this time! You must not let that enemy's child, Li You, be so proud!"

As soon as he saw Changsun Wuji, Li Youliang began to complain.

"Hey!"

But Changsun Wuji sighed and said, "Prince Changle, I really can't help you with this matter. You must know that His Majesty hasn't seen me today."

"You are the uncle of the country. Your majesty can hide from the first day of the junior high school, and can also hide from the fifteenth day. Besides, if he can't be found in the Qinzheng Hall, he can go to the court meeting. You must make the decision for me... ..."

But this time Li Youliang was interrupted by Changsun Wuji before he finished speaking.

"Prince Changle, you can't talk nonsense. Although I am an uncle, I am an outsider after all. I don't want to interfere with your Li family's affairs!"

Changsun Wuji continued to pretend to be difficult, but he bit the three words "Li's family" very hard.

Although Li Youliang is young, according to his seniority, Li Youliang is Li Yuan's cousin, and today's sage Li Shimin also calls him uncle.

This is also the reason why Changsun Wuji is going to let Li Youliang stand out.

"Hey, the Li family, it would be great if His Majesty still remembered me, the Li family."

Unexpectedly, Li Youliang not only failed to comprehend the meaning of Changsun Wuji, but also began to complain: "Thinking of my school, the eldest brother died for the country, and the second brother has been in poor health. Unfortunately, I can't even stay in the capital now."

"You can't do it alone, don't you have some cousins ​​in the capital?"

Changsun Wuji asked Li Youliang to come over, not to listen to his complaints, and immediately called him by name.

This time, Li Youliang finally reacted.

He slapped his thigh and said, "That's right, I'm a soft-spoken person, but it's not enough to find a few more."

Speaking of Li Youliang's generation, the Li family is also full of talents.

Li Shentong, King Jing of Huai’an, was his cousin, while Li Daozong, King of Jiangxia, and Li Xiaogong, King of Hejian, were all a generation below him.

Although most of these people are currently guarding one side, there are still quite a few who stay in Chang'an.

Soon, Li Youliang thought of a suitable candidate.

"Thank you, Uncle Guo, for your advice!"

Immediately Li Youliang bid farewell to Zhangsun Wuji with a happy face.

Looking at Li Youliang's back, Changsun Wuji thought to himself: "Sure enough, ten fingers have different lengths, so it's no wonder you are so down and out."

Li Youliang left the restaurant, regardless of the time, he went to Zongzheng Temple.

What he was looking for was the current Zong Zhengqing Xiangyi County King Li Shenfu.

When Li Yuan revolted in Taiyuan, Li Shenfu was in Chang'an.

And unfortunately, Li Shenfu failed to escape in time and was eventually arrested.

Although Li Shenfu escaped by chance in the end, that painful memory made him the person who hated the Yin family the most among the Li family clan, and also the person who disliked Li You the most.

At that time, he once spoke out to prevent Li Shimin from marrying Concubine Yin, and the last time he spoke to make Li You immediately resign, it was from the mouth of Li Shenfu.

In Li Youliang's view, this time he must be even more disgusted with Li You's appointment as Minister of the Household Department.

Moreover, Li Shenfu is now Zong Zhengqing, in charge of Zongzheng Temple, and he is vaguely the manager of the Li family clan. Even if Li Shimin is His Majesty today, he still has to miss him a little bit.

Sure enough, as Li Youliang expected, when he told Li Shenfu about this, Li Shenfu became angry.

If it wasn't too late, Li Shenfu must have entered the palace immediately.

The two negotiated to make a move in the next court meeting, and they must pull Li You down from the position of Minister of the Household Department.

However, before the test from the Li family's clan appeared, Li You's Chu Palace had already been blocked.

This person is Pei Ju, the former Minister of the Household Department who had just been "reported" by Li Shimin and returned to his hometown.

Even though Pei Ju is [-] this year, he was also a ruthless person when he was young.

He led [-] soldiers and horses from Jiangnan to Hainan, sweeping more than [-] states in the south.

Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty praised him greatly: "Pei Ju led three thousand soldiers and fought all the way to Nankang. With such ministers, why worry!"

Afterwards, he even crusaded against the Turks, explored the Western Regions, and made an expedition to Liaodong. It can be said that every battle in the former Sui Dynasty had his shadow.

These years, although he no longer fights immediately when he gets older, his combat effectiveness is also one of the best in the court.

Gaozu Li Yuan was hated by him, and Li Shimin was also hated by him.

After the spring of this year, although he also felt that his physical strength continued to decline, and he also had the idea of ​​retiring from the old age and returning to his hometown, but when he suddenly heard that he was "reported" to return to his hometown, he suddenly became aroused.

After hearing that Changsun Wuji and the other three did not see Li Shimin, Pei Ju was also annoyed and went directly to Chu Palace.

He didn't dare to mess around in the imperial palace, but he was not afraid at all of Chu Palace outside the imperial city.

Li You in the Prince Chu's mansion was sulking at the moment, but when he suddenly heard that Pei Ju had arrived, he was a little panicked.

"Hurry up, invite Mrs. Pei in! You must be more polite and careful!"

Li You's attitude was surprisingly good, Li Shimin had never received such hospitality before.

It's not that Li You respects Pei Ju's old age and becomes stronger, but that he is really afraid.

[I remember that Pei Ju died in the first year of Zhenguan, but how he died was not written in the book. 】

【What if something goes wrong in my house. 】

[What's going to happen, even if it's just sickness, I can't clean it up by jumping into the Yellow River! 】

Although Li You loves to be lazy, he doesn't want to leave such a disgraceful mark in the future history books.

Soon, he saw this strong old man.

[Although this old man looks solid and red-faced, he doesn't look like a man in his eighties at all. 】

"Hello Mr. Pei, I don't know what is the so-called late night visit?"

Li You asked cautiously.

"Hmph, don't you know what you did?"

Pei Ju was already holding back his anger, but seeing Li You's useless look made him even more angry.

"Master Pei, let's sit down and have a good talk, don't worry. I don't even want to be the Secretary of the Household Department!"

When Pei Ju said this, Li You was also full of grievances.

However, in Pei Ju's eyes, Li You's grievance is a kind of showing off!

"Hmph, you all think I'm old, don't you! I'm trapped in that small house every day, so why don't you just send me home now!"

Li You's words aroused even more dissatisfaction in Pei Ju's heart.

Although Pei Ju is getting old, his heart is still longing for the stars and the sea.

Originally, he complained about the cumbersome clerical duties of the household department, so he used this resentment on people.

Unexpectedly, just after the New Year this year, the errand of the household department was also replaced by a child.

"Master Pei, you will grow stronger and stronger, why don't you go back and enjoy the blessings?"

Li You opened his mouth to persuade.

[Anyway, you haven't had a good life for a few days, wouldn't it be nice to go back and hug your grandson? 】
