Tang Dynasty good father-in-law

"Your Majesty, I am guilty."

Zhang Liang knelt down on the ground, lowered his head and clenched his fists and said, his words were full of remorse.

Of course, I don't know what's going on in my heart. After all, Zhang Liang still has a lot of ability to make it this far.

Just because Zhang Liang was able to tolerate Li's stealing people, it is obvious, although today's incident made the ministers present despise.

But there is a new understanding of Zhang Liang, who can be bent and stretched is not to be underestimated, who can become a founding hero is a simple person.

Especially Changsun Wuji, Du Ruhui and the others had already secretly remembered Zhang Liang in their hearts. After all, after this incident, Zhang Liang was afraid that he would hold their teacher and himself in hatred.

Of course, they didn't feel much. After all, the relationship with Zhang Liang was not very good, but they didn't mind being worse.

Facing Zhang Liang's apology, Li Shimin's eyes did not change in any way, nor did he make a sound immediately, but those who are familiar with the emperor knew that His Majesty was angry.

In fact, this is indeed the case. You must know that Li Shimin has always wanted to weaken the influence of the family, but Zhang Liang's behavior is undoubtedly helping the family to increase its influence.

He touched several taboos of Li Shimin in a row. If the old friendship is not still there, he might lose his title today.

However, even so, Li Shimin's anger is not so easy to dissipate, especially when it comes to aristocratic families.

"Zhang Liang's morals are not good. He cut his title and went to Lingyan Pavilion, and changed it to Changping County Duke. He immediately sent a decree to Chang'an, and the common people were angry."

After a long time, Li Shimin's voice without a trace of emotion rang out, which can be regarded as a definitive statement on this matter.

For a moment, there was a smile on the faces of the ministers present, and they were naturally happy to see Zhang Liang's misfortune.

Moreover, after this incident spread throughout Chang'an, Zhang Liang's reputation was ruined. If one's reputation is ruined, it is basically difficult to move forward.

As for wanting to stand up, it is basically impossible, especially if you go to Lingyan Pavilion, which makes all the princes smile.

You must know that Zhang Liang was originally Li Shimin's force to enter Lingyan Pavilion, and many princes did not plan to put Zhang Liang in the same row.

Well now, the higher they climbed, the harder they fell, which naturally made them happy.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

The veins in Zhang Liang's eyes were bulging, and he was naturally unwilling to accept this result, but all this had become a foregone conclusion, and he could only speak in the end, with a hint of loneliness in his words.

Originally, he still had thoughts about the position of Duke, but after he didn't know who calculated it, he was not only hopeless.

It even fell to the county magistrate, which is undoubtedly a huge blow to Zhang Liang, who has always valued power.

But he knew in his heart that this was the best result. If His Majesty hadn't missed the past, then he would have lost his title at this time, let alone retain a county magistrate.

But he knew that he had offended too many people, and he knew that no one made a sound when he saw his downfall.

At the same time, Li Junxian also quickly ordered people to pass the decree, after all, if there were any changes in Chang'an, it would be a disaster.

In fact, Chang'an did have a tendency to intensify, but fortunately, the arrival of an imperial decree calmed down the turmoil.

Chapter 67 Accident, Farewell

Shu An in the teahouse was slightly taken aback, he didn't expect that the result of the court discussion would be like this.

Originally, his idea was to ruin Zhang Liang's reputation and block his ascent route, but he didn't expect that there would be unexpected surprises.

In fact, Shu An knows that it is impossible to pull Zhang Liang off the horse at once, after all, he is Li Shimin's confidant and beloved general.

What Li Shimin valued was not Zhang Liang's talent, but his loyalty, not to mention that it was only the first year of Zhenguan.

It is precisely because all kinds of wastes are prosperous, there are not many people who can be used by Li Shimin, and Zhang Liang is undoubtedly one of them.

Originally, he thought that Zhang Liang's reputation would be ruined, but he didn't expect that there would be an extra surprise.

"Interesting, there is no precedent for Lingyan Pavilion to be removed."

Shu An murmured softly with a hint of a smile in his eyes, Zhang Liang had set a precedent, presumably Li Shimin also felt that it would be an insult to leave Zhang Liang in Lingyan Pavilion.

Of course, if Li Shimin still kept it, there must still be ministers who would impeach him for the simple reason that he was ashamed to be in the same category.

Shu An didn't struggle with this matter for long, because Zhang Liang must settle down for a long time to come.

The most important thing now is that my students will leave Chang'an tomorrow, and it will not be long before the early spring of next year.

It takes time to travel and get familiar with the grassland, so Xue Rengui needs to leave.

After practicing martial arts, Xue Rengui had no doubts in the eyes of Li Shimin and the others. At the same time, Xue Rengui naturally went to the grassland to control a small team.

Although he doesn't have any military position, the main reason is that he escaped death during this trip to the grassland. If he can return safely from this trip, he will definitely be rewarded heavily.

After thinking of this, Shu An couldn't help but sigh slightly, this young man who had been with him for many years was finally leaving.

.......

On the outskirts of Chang'an, Xue Rengui was dressed in ordinary leather armor like an ordinary soldier, followed by more than a dozen horsemen and horses.

Xue Rengui had carefully treasured up the armors and robes used in the martial arts performances, and he was already clear about the mission on the grassland this time.

It's not a frontal battle on the battlefield, and what needs to be played is a horse thief, so naturally it can't be done with great fanfare.

On the official road leading to the outside of the Great Wall, three figures, one old, two young, walked side by side.

It was Shu An and the two disciples, one of them was Xue Rengui, and the other was Wang Xuance who came to send this senior brother off.

You must know that Wang Xuance learned a lot of martial arts from Xue Rengui some time ago, so he naturally has feelings for this senior brother.

Especially since he also knew about this incident, he couldn't help showing a trace of regret on his face.

If I had been apprenticed earlier, would I be able to board the grassland with my senior brother now?

Shu An, who was walking in the middle, didn't know what Wang Xuance was thinking, but Shu An's words sounded slowly.

"After going to the grassland, look and think more, these dozen lives are in your hands."

"Although Turkic's vitality was seriously injured due to the snow disaster, it's not something you can provoke."

"I have said so much that I hope you will be safe. On the day you return, my teacher will wait for you ten miles away from Chang'an."

All that needs to be said along the way has already been said, and Xue Rengui needs to make a decision on his own in the end.

Bring this future famous general into the battlefield in advance, and it is not a normal war, but to perform the task of narrowly dying.

Even Shu An didn't know whether it was right or wrong to do so. If Xue Rengui fell into the grassland, it might become the most regrettable thing in his life.

"Teacher, Rengui will always be in mind."

Facing his teacher's words, Xue Rengui's eyes were a little rosy and he said, from a poor boy who was born as a child to the Tianjiao who is now looked at by the whole Chang'an.

Xue Rengui has always been grateful to his teacher. If his teacher hadn't brought him out of the corner of the country, it would be impossible for him to be where he is today.

"Pfft!"

After thinking of this, Xue Rengui knelt down in front of Shu An, and at the same time, a voice with a trace of emotion sounded.

"Students travel far away, forgive the disciples for not being filial in the future, and stay with the teacher forever."

Shu An accepted this gift calmly. In this era, the relationship between teachers and students is even more reliable than the relationship between father and son.

The reason is very simple, that is, it is impossible for a father to have only one son, and there are also divisions of concubine and concubine.

Relatively speaking, the words of teachers and students are different. Once the teacher is apprenticed, the teacher will definitely teach him everything. If his student is not good, he will look down on himself.

"It's okay, you can go for now, and I will write a review for you when I come back."

Shu An's eyes flickered and he said softly, this is his promise, no one in the world would like to get his comments.

Even this student is no exception, but Xue Rengui will not show what he wants.

Sure enough, after the words fell, Xue Rengui's eyes showed a trace of excitement, and he had to know that this was his teacher's comment.

Every comment is famous all over the world, and countless people come to the door but can't get it. Xue Rengui naturally thought that his teacher could give him a comment.

Even if he is not famous in the world, it is also a kind of affirmation for himself, but he has always been embarrassed to speak.

Because it seems that he also didn't show any achievements, and he didn't expect his teacher to make such a promise, which gave him another reason to come back from the grassland.

"Teacher, take care!"

Xue Rengui kowtowed three times, and this time he turned and left without any hesitation.

Xue Rengui didn't know when he would be able to return to Chang'an this time, but he had absolute confidence in himself.

"Brother, let's go, teacher, I will take care of it."

There was also some emotion in Wang Xuance's eyes, and he said that he didn't have that deep relationship with his teacher because he had not been a teacher for a long time.

But it doesn't mean that he won't understand the feelings in it. You must know that he has a lot of reluctance to leave his hometown, which is similar to now.

"The chicks grow up and will eventually leave the nest, Xuance, let's go back."

Shu An looked at the gradually receding figure and murmured softly. For several years, he thought that nothing could stir his nerves.

Now it seems that he was wrong. It seems that as he grows older, his emotions become more emotional.

After all, this is not a child's play house, nor is it a game, but a person of flesh and blood.

"is teacher!"

Wang Xuance said respectfully, and at the same time couldn't help feeling a little envious in his heart.

In the eyes of his teacher, this senior brother is considered a graduate, while he is just getting started.

I don't know how long it will take until he becomes a teacher, but he has already made a decision in his heart, he must not leave this senior brother too far behind.

Chapter 68 Li Shimin who was beaten

Imperial study room

Li Shimin was meticulously approving the memorial. With the cold winter, news of people who died of freezing came from all over the place, which made the emperor not in a good mood.

"Your Majesty, the front ranks of the clan records have been lined up."

I don't know when Wang De has come to Li Shimin's side and said respectfully. Regarding the matter that His Majesty explained, Wang De dared not make any mistakes.

With the clan annals listed in the first few columns, Wang De did not hesitate, and immediately came to report to His Majesty.

Li Shimin couldn't help being taken aback when he heard the voice, and then remembered this matter, and the time was slower than he imagined.

It has been more than a month, but Li Shimin didn't pay much attention to this matter, but took the rice paper and read it.

"bump!"

"Bastard!"

Li Shimin slammed his hand on the table and said, with a hint of anger in his words.

There was a trace of panic on Wang De's face. He didn't know that His Majesty became so angry after reading the rebuilt clan annals.

But he knew that it must have something to do with this one, Wang Desheng was afraid that His Majesty would blame him, so he couldn't help but lower his head and dare not speak.

At this time, Li Shimin lost his former calm, and the anger appeared on his face. It was obvious that the emperor was very angry.

I saw that the first place in the clan annals on the rice paper was the Shandong gentry Cui, followed by other Shandong clans.

The last key point is that the royal family of the Li family is ranked behind these clans, which is the reason for Li Shimin's anger.

Is it possible that the whole world is the land of the king, within the four seas, there are all kings and ministers, and the whole world belongs to the Li family, but this ranks behind other gentry families.

"Leave Li Junxian here!"

After a burst of anger, Li Shimin gradually calmed down, because he couldn't help but think of the vow he made in front of that cheap father-in-law, and now he couldn't help but blush when thinking about it.

But at the same time, I also thought of that bet, maybe I have already lost from the beginning.

Fortunately, facing this cheap father-in-law, it wasn't the first or second time he was deflated anyway, so Li Shimin didn't care.

........

After Xue Rengui left Chang'an, Shu An began to relax, drinking tea and studying ancient scriptures all day long, and his life was very comfortable.

Occasionally, I teach my grandchildren how to write and be human, and before I know it, the time of Chinese New Year is approaching.

As usual, Shu An started to practice Longevity Boxing early in the morning, and he insisted on finishing it every day, his body couldn't help warming up, and then he started to do other things.

It's just that an unexpected visitor came today, of course, Shu An's complexion didn't change much.

Seeing that Li Shimin's face seemed a little ugly, and with the rice paper in his hand, he probably already guessed what was going on.

There is only one thing that can change the face of Li Shimin, who has already started to have the imperial palace, and that is the clan history not long ago.

Apart from this matter, he couldn't think of any possibility that Li Shimin would come to him.

"Yafu, Shimin lost."
