Datang: Starting from Li Jiancheng

Chapter 51

After a long time, Luo Bin sighed softly and said, "Now that the Turkic bows and crossbows are strong, if they really want to fight my Tang Dynasty with all their strength, the result is really hard to say."

"Even if we win, we should suffer heavy losses."

Dou Yinger frowned when she heard the words, pursed her lips and said, "Is there no way to avoid war?"

"It's not a day or two since the Turks have been thinking about the territory of the Tang Dynasty. They are wolves entrenched on the grasslands. They are very ambitious. As long as they get the opportunity, they will definitely attack in groups."

The crease between Luo Bin's eyebrows deepened, "This battle can only be postponed but cannot be avoided."

After all, the Turkic Grassland not only has an unstable climate, but also has a very narrow territory. If the Turkic Khan wants his people to live better, he can only occupy the land of other countries.

But now that they have just experienced the change of Xuanwu Gate, Datang, which is unstable whether it is the court or the people, is undoubtedly their first choice.

Dou Yinger smacked her lips, "I hope Li Shimin can win a bit, otherwise I will hate him even more."

First destroy her family, and then destroy her country.

Hearing this, Luo Bin stood up suddenly, and then patted Dou Yinger on the shoulder, "Don't worry, with me here, Datang will be fine."

After saying that, Luo Bin turned around and left.

Dou Ying'er looked at Luo Bin's back and pursed her lips, feeling an unprecedented sense of security in her heart.

…………

Taiping Restaurant soon opened in Chang'an, because of Luo Bin's reputation, coupled with the strong reputation of Taiping Academy and Taiping Medical College, and the vigorous publicity of Sun Simiao and Wang Changming, Taiping Restaurant quickly became popular in Chang'an.

There are even many people from outside the customs who come here admiringly.

Although the food and drinks at Luobin Restaurant are several times higher than those at other restaurants, this still does not affect the popularity of Taiping Restaurant at all.

And Luo Bin was originally an idle prince, and now he has not gone to court for a long time, and he is only thinking about going to the restaurant.

After hearing the news here, Li Shimin also felt a little relieved. Since Luo Bin wanted to stay away from the court because of his willingness to degenerate, he could stay with him for a while before the Turks invaded.

"This Luo Bin is quite acquainted." Li Shimin leaned back on the chair, with deep meaning in his eyes.

On the other hand, Changsun Wuji frowned when he heard the words, "Your Majesty, this Luo Bin is as cunning as a fox and is very good at calculating. Maybe this move is a trick he came up with."

Li Shimin waved his hand, "The auxiliary machine is too worried. The people I sent specifically told me that Luo Bin is really focused on the restaurant now, and has no other petty tricks."

"Even so, now that Taiping Academy, Medical College and Taiping Restaurant are famous all over Chang'an, it can be said that they have won the hearts of the people. How can we say that Luo Bin didn't do it intentionally?" Changsun Wuji's eyes were filled with doubts, and he couldn't bear it. Zhu reminded Li Shimin.

Li Shimin sighed helplessly when he heard this, "Now the Turks are constantly harassing the border of Datang, and the attack is just around the corner. Without Luo Bin's Beiwei Army, it will be difficult for us to win this battle."

Speaking of this, Li Shimin rubbed the center of his brows, "Auxiliary machine, since Luo Bin doesn't know our actions now, and has no intention of rebelling, let him enjoy himself for a while."

Changsun Wuji pursed his lips, and then responded, "It all depends on your Majesty."

…………

the other side.

Luo Bin ran to the newly opened Taiping Restaurant to take a look when he had nothing to do, but just as he entered the restaurant, he saw Hou Junji who came to buy wine.

Undoubtedly, Taiping Restaurant is most famous for its mellow and mellow peach blossom drunk, just one sip is enough to make it unforgettable.

Rao is a high-ranking official who has always disliked Luo Bin in the court, so he couldn't help coming to buy a few jars of wine to taste every few days.

Now just after the morning court, Hou Junji couldn't help but go to Taiping Restaurant to buy some wine and taste it back home, but he didn't expect to meet Luo Bin so unluckily.

"Yo, isn't this General Hou?" Luo Bin raised his eyebrows, "Come to eat?"

Hou Junji's face darkened. Since Luo Bin found out that he had reported to Li Shimin for disaster relief in Longyou last time, the two of them had little contact with each other.

"Come buy some wine." Hou Junji frowned.

"I didn't expect that General Hou also likes to drink the peach blossom drunk from my Taiping Restaurant." Luo Bin pursed his lips and smiled, and then sighed softly: "It's just that your Majesty has just ascended the throne, and there are many wastes waiting to be done. The treasury is empty, and the general's salary is Presumably not much."

"Today's Peach Blossom Drunk is my treat. General Hou can take as much as he wants, but don't be polite to me."

After saying this, Luo Bin patted Hou Junji on the shoulder generously, as if the two brothers were in good company.

Hou Junji's expression darkened when he heard the words, and it took him a long time to force a smile on his face, "Master Hou was joking, my monthly salary is indeed not much, but I still have some money for a little wine."

"On the contrary, Lord Hou, how powerful he used to be, now that the Turks invaded the imperial court and the civil and military officials are all busy, yet Lord Hou opened a restaurant on Zhuque Street, and he was accompanied by copper stinky all day long, and he was willing to degenerate. I'm in shock."

Luo Bin smiled instead of anger, and his eyes were calm, "There will be many things that will scare the general in the future."

After finishing speaking, Luo Bin smacked his lips and continued: "I naturally know about the Turkic raids on the border of the Tang Dynasty many times, and the civil and military officials above the court are all overwhelmed because they are incompetent."

"On martial arts, I have the ability to charge into battle at any time and be invincible in all battles. In terms of papers, I have followed His Majesty many times to be qualified as a military adviser, and I can be regarded as resourceful and resourceful."

"As for whether I have boasted, I think General Hou knows it well." Luo Bin raised his eyebrows, and then snorted coldly, "I have already prepared what you are busy with, and now I have nothing to do to make a small talk." Why can't the restaurant work?"

After hearing Luo Bin's words, Hou Junji couldn't hold back the anger on his face anymore, frowned and said, "Master Hou is not afraid of all civil and military officials in the court..."

"What are you afraid of?" Luo Bin smacked his lips indifferently, "The group of idiots who take pleasure in participating in me all day without thinking about making progress, are they worth my fear?"

"In other words, they will stop impeaching me every day because of my respect?"

"Lord Luo, please be cautious!" Hou Junji's brow creases deepened, "No matter what, you are the Duke of Tang Dynasty, but now you don't even go to the morning court, and spend all day with Wouldn't it be a joke to be accompanied by the smell of copper?"

"A joke? Who saw my joke? Who else laughed at me?"

Luo Bin pursed his lips, showing no fear.

He raised his eyebrows and glanced at Hou Junji, then continued: "If I don't keep company with the smell of copper every day, where will I get the money to give up tens of thousands of shi of grain for disaster relief? If I don't, where will I get the money to open the Taiping Academy for the benefit of the people?" Manmin?"
