After leaving the Rencheng Royal Mansion and boarding the frame, Li Ke showed a look of joy. The reason why he wanted to send Li Xueyan to the Rencheng Royal Mansion was to explore Li Daozong's to see what kind of attitude he had towards his struggle for the throne. Unexpectedly, because of his relationship with Li Zong, it directly affected Li Daozong's decision, which metaphorically stated that he had to stand on his own side. More importantly, he was praised by the war god Li Jing.

Li Ke admired Li Jing very much. Whether it was his military opportunity or his personality, Li Ke admired him very much.

Sitting in the frame of the King of Huihan Mansion, Li Ke was happy and couldn't help but recall the information about Li Jing he knew in his mind. Li Jing was born in a family of officials and was the nephew of Han Qinhu, the general of Sui Dynasty. His grandfather Li Chongyi was once the governor of Yinzhou and was named Yongkang Duke; his father Li Quan served in the Sui Dynasty and was appointed as the prefect of Zhao County. Li Jing was handsome and was influenced by his family. He had "civilized and military talents" since he was a child and was quite enterprising. He once said to his father: "If a real man meets the Lord at the right time, he must make meritorious and make great achievements to gain wealth." His uncle Han Qinhu was a famous general of the Sui Dynasty. Every time he talked about military affairs with him, he applauded and stroked him and said: "The only one who can talk about Sun and Wu skills is this." Sun, Wu, is the most highly praised Sun Wu and Wu Qi, which shows how much the famous general Han Qinhu valued his nephew.

Li Jing first served as the Gongcao of Chang'an County, and later served as the direct chief of the hall and the outer lord of the Ministry of Veterans. Although his official position was humble, his talent was famous among the ministers and ministers of the Sui Dynasty. Niu Hong, the Minister of Personnel, praised him for being "the talent of the king and the master". The great military strategist of the Sui Dynasty, Yang Su, also stroked the bed and said to him: "You should sit here!"

Thinking of this, Li Ke was a little surprised. Since Niu Hong praised Li Jing so much, why didn’t he promote him? There was also Zuo Pushe Yang Su who was powerful at that time, and he had such a high evaluation of Li Jing, why did he let such talents go away from him?

When Li Yuan raised an army in Taiyuan and wanted to rebel, Li Jing risked his life to go to Chang'an to report it. Although he failed to succeed in the end, he was arrested and then rescued by Li Shimin. However, when Emperor Yang of Sui lost the hearts of the people and the Sui Dynasty was about to perish, Li Jing still had such a loyal mind to the emperor, which was enough to show his extraordinary personality. Soon he was summoned by Li Shimin to the shogunate and used as the Three Guards.

What Li Ke admired was that in addition to Li Jing risking his life to go to Jiangdu to advise Emperor Yang of Sui to rebel Li Yuan and to fulfill his duties as a minister, he always adhered to the principle that soldiers dare not do political work after the founding of the Tang Dynasty and did not participate in any political struggles, which made Li Ke appreciated.

At the beginning, when Li Shimin was in the Xuanwumen coup, he sent people to Li Jing and Li Ji's army to hint to support him. Unexpectedly, Li Jing refused on the spot, saying that he did not support Li Shimin, but would not destroy his actions. As Li Jing's subordinate, Li Ji was unable to participate in this coup that was the greatest meritorious for him because of Li Jing. From this, it can be seen that Li Jing is indeed a role model for the Tang Dynasty soldiers to not interfere in politics.

This time, Li Shimin intended to transfer Li Jing to Chang'an and join the Ministry of War. In addition to Li Shimin's desire to gather military power, Li Ke guessed that he also wanted Li Jing to join the Zaige and let him be granted the title of Prime Minister. After all, in the Tang Dynasty, the honor of being granted the title of Prime Minister was higher than that of the general, the general manager and other military positions.

Li Ke also learned through history that after joining the Ministry of War, Li Jing became taciturn, listened more and talked less, and even retired at home without caring about the world.

Therefore, being able to be serious in the limelight and to outsiders, Li Jing can still praise himself bluntly, which has broken the bottom line of his silence and low-key requirement for himself. It can be seen that his appreciation for himself is not ordinary perfunctory, but real appreciation, and heartfelt appreciation. Li Ke believes that Li Jing's appreciation is far more valuable than Li Shimin's praise. After all, he knew that Li Jing was the head commander of the marching in the future war against the Turks and in the future war against Tuyuhun. But now he appreciates himself so much, he will be much better than Li Chengqian and Li Tai in the future, whether he has made achievements in the war against the Turks and Tuyuhun or the support of military generals in the future.

"Well! There are indeed gains and losses!" Li Ke sighed. He was thinking about what he was doing in the Rencheng Palace today. Therefore, before he knew it, the frame had already arrived at the Han Palace.

Back at the Han Palace, he asked Zhu Tongzhao's study room about the exact information about the failure to pay attention to the mission of the Four Kingdoms in Li Tai. Zhu Tong naturally did not dare to neglect and told Li Ke everything he knew. Li Ke was very dissatisfied after hearing Zhu Tong's answer, because the information Zhu Tong told him was already told to him today when he was worshiping heaven and ancestors, and that what the two said did not have much source.

"Your Highness, our intelligence system in Chang'an is mainly responsible for and concerned about the situation of the court and the movements between officials of various departments. We did not invest much manpower in the missions of the four countries, so we only got so much information." Zhu Tong discovered that Li Ke was dissatisfied with his intelligence and explained immediately.

"Em" Li Ke pondered. He did not deny Zhu Tong's explanation. The order he gave Zhu Tong did not mention the four countries' missions. It was not easy for Goryeo, the four countries' missions, and Chang'an, which had just arrived on July 11, to invest much manpower to get so much information.

"From today on, you must closely monitor the inns of the three countries of Goryeo, Tuyuhun and Fusang. Those who are just entering the country should not let go. I must know exactly what their trip was for." Li Ke ordered. From beginning to end, he felt that the reason why Goryeo, Tuyuhun and Fusang came to Chang'an this time was not as fake as Li Tai said.

"No" Zhu Tong replied.

Li Ke asked Zhu Tong about Hou Ruoyi's situation again. Zhu Tong told Li Ke everything he knew. Li Ke felt relieved after hearing this. At least from Zhu Tong's answer, he heard that Hou Ruoyi had rarely been there recently. Except for her depression, her body had completely recovered. Li Ke naturally knew the reason for her depression, but she could not put too much energy on this matter now, at least he would not take it lightly before he understood the real purpose of the Three Kingdoms coming to Chang'an.

"Then you go out!" Li Ke said to Zhu Tong who continued to wait for his order in front of him.

"No" Zhu Tong bowed and left the study.

After Zhu Tong left, Li Ke fell into deep thought. Although he had received a lot of information and gained a lot today, Fusang, Goryeo and Tuyuhun suddenly appeared in Chang'an. After attending today's banquet, he had an ominous premonition that he always felt that something big was about to happen in Chang'an these days.
