Chapter six hundred and seventy third
?I knew that Emperor Taizong Li Shimin was thinking about it, and Li Ke had a solution after thinking for a long time.
The first thing he did was to rectify the General Office of the North Yai, but his rectification was not to gather the power of the twelve guards as Li Shimin thought, but to transform the Northern Ya into a staff headquarters similar to later generations. Li Xianzhong and the generals of the guards served as staff officers in the North Yai, and then mobilized a group of students from the Army Academy who graduated from the Staff Department through the Royal Army Academy to be responsible for their staff responsibilities, forming a large-scale military consultation system for the North Yai. The second thing was to let Du Junchuo serve as the Deputy General Office of the North Yai, and be fully responsible for the daily military affairs of the North Yai. Li Ke would only come out to solve the problem of a particularly important matter.
Du Junchuo was already very satisfied as the general of the Guards. He did not expect that he was recommended by Li Ke to become the deputy governor of the Northern Yamen. He was extremely grateful to Li Ke. As long as there was nothing big, he would never bother Li Ke.
Therefore, Li Ke's life is very leisurely.
By the time Li Ke finished rectifying the Northern Yaman, it was already the beginning of the spring of the second year. Seeing the spring outside the city, Li Ke handed over the military affairs to Deputy Governor Du Junchuo, and he took his wife out for an outing in the city and started his life as a fairy couple.
On this day, Li Ke's horse team slowly left the city and set the camp on the western mountain outside Chang'an City.
Because, being used to military life, Li Ke likes to stay in the camp very much.
Princess Ashinayun was born into a Turkic nomadic ethnic group, so she naturally lived in military tents, and Tubo princess was also used to this kind of life. Changsun Bingning used to be a member of the Tang Dynasty secret guards. She was used to suffering, so she could naturally get used to camping in the wild. Only Wu Meiniang was not very used to it, but she loved her highness brother deeply. As long as she was with her highness brother, she could still endure hardship.
Therefore, the spring outing of Li Ke and his family was very pleasant.
In addition to Li Ke's family, the followers who traveled this time were still Wang Zhongchang and the 300 Knights of the Eight Hundred Eagle Guards in Chang'an City.
Because Li Ke lives in Chang'an, his guards can only be determined by 800.
Therefore, Li Ke sent the remaining guards to Taiyuan and became the personal guards of Chen Qi's Grand Governor's Office, and in disguise, Chen Qi trained this elite soldier.
"Your Highness, when will we go back to Chang'an?" The speaker was Asunayun. She was afraid that she would delay Li Ke's military affairs.
"Sister, your highness brother won't go back to Chang'an, he may go back to Jiangnan!" Wu Meiniang smiled faintly. Her political sense was very sensitive and she knew Li Ke's current situation. She should not stay in the capital, so she said so affirmatively.
"I also think that your highness should go to Jiangnan to see it!" Changsun Bingning interrupted. As one of the leaders of the Tang Dynasty secret guards, he also vaguely felt the uneasiness reflected in the tranquility of Chang'an City.
Only the Tubo princess Sang Yang did not speak. Since Li Ke returned to Beijing, her attitude has been like this.
In fact, if she hadn't given birth to a prince for Li Ke, Li Ke's character would never have paid attention to her.
"Well--you are right. In the spring of March, I really want to go to Jiangnan to see you!" Li Ke smiled faintly, "After a few days, I will send a letter to my father and resign from the position of the Great Governor of the Northern Yai. We will go to Yangzhou immediately."
"Brother of your Highness, which road should we take?" Wu Meiniang asked.
"Of course it's a waterway!" Li Ke said with a gentle smile.
"Water Road?" Changsun Bingning asked back, a little unbelievable. She knew very well that there was no other water road from Chang'an to Jiangnan except the Grand Canal of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal. But that was the way for Emperor Yang of Sui to visit the southern tour of the past. Now that Li Ke is going to take this road, will the meaning inside make people think about it?
Seeing Changsun Bingning's solemn expression, Li Ke smiled and said, "Let's first Beiwang Yingzhou, go to see Liu Rengui's navy, and then take the Tang Dynasty naval warship to Yangzhou."
"Oh- OK OK!" Wu Meiniang said happily.
Changsun Bingning's forehead also relaxed a lot.
In fact, Li Ke’s wife, Changsun Bingning and Wu Meiniang, have very sensitive political sense, but they all know Li Ke’s standard, that is, women cannot interfere in politics, so they are unwilling to touch on this aspect.
However, as long as it is related to Li Ke, even if they don’t touch it or tell Li Ke in detail, they will analyze the pros and cons in their hearts and will find opportunities to remind Li Ke occasionally.
Li Ke also knew what the two of them were thinking, so he pretended to be deaf and turned a deaf ear and pretended not to hear it.
After Li Ke accompanied his daughters to the West Mountain for eight days, he began to write a letter to Li Shimin to resign as the governor of the North Yai.
The next day, he was about to return to Chang'an and start his journey south.
In the evening, when the girls were tired of playing, they would rest in the big tent.
When Li Ke saw that the sunset in the west was beautiful, he went out for a horse and took a walk.
Before I knew it, I walked to the edge of the Wei River.
The Wei River carries too many memories of Li Ke. He and Changsun Bingning met and fell in love in the Wei River.
There was another person who also left an indelible memory by the Wei River.
When Li Ke thought of this person, his heart ached.
Because it was him who let her down and he did not protect her.
As a man, this will surely be a shame for him.
He still remembers that the woman in his heart painted a beautiful and beautiful handwriting.
Beautiful and wise, gentle and generous.
However, what about now?
Where is she?
I returned to Chang'an and have not heard from him yet.
Li Ke began to be confused. He stared at the western sky and began to be stunned.
"What are you doing?"
Suddenly, Li Ke heard the roar of the Eagle Guard.
His body trembled when he looked at the sound, and he couldn't believe it.
She, how could she be here?
Li Ke didn't say anything, and Wang Zhongchang left very tactfully.
After a moment, Hou Ruoyi appeared in front of Li Ke in a light green dress.
"I didn't expect to meet you here today!" Hou Ruoyi said lightly, her expression was very natural and calm.
"Well, I-I didn't expect it!" Li Ke said, but his tone was a little unnatural.
"Have you disturbed?" Hou Ruoyi asked.
"No, I'm alone too!" Li Ke did not dare to look at Hou Ruoyi's clear eyes.
"Li Ke——" Hou Ruoyi called Li Ke's name surprisingly.
"Yeah——" Li Ke replied.
"Can you still write a poem for me?" Hou Ruoyi asked.
"Yes-" Li Ke said apologetically.
Immediately, he ordered Wang Zhongchang to prepare paper and ink and come to the pavilion beside the Weishui Bridge with Hou Ruoyi.
"What do you want to write?" Li Ke asked with a pen.
"You can see it yourself!" Hou Ruoyi handed a brocade parfait to Li Ke.
"Bang--" The pen in Li Ke's hand fell to the ground. He looked at the brocade hand in his hand and said nothing, but his eyes were filled with tears.
"Stay Together":
The clear water of the pavilion is approaching the evening, and the apricot blossoms are blowing and the fragrance is invading.
A stream of bright moon is quiet, and you accompany me to play the piano.
The handwriting on the brocade handkerchief is clearly visible, which is Hou Ruoyi's beautiful Wang style character. This is the result of her hard work after she met Li Ke. Because Li Ke likes Wang style character and Wang Xizhi's calligraphy.
"Your Highness——"
Wang Zhongchang shouted at the right time, and Li Ke came to his senses and said to Hou Ruoyi, "Sorry, I'm blessed me!"
"You didn't-" Hou Ruoyi said resentfully, "This is the real you, the real you!"
Li Ke didn't say anything, took the pen handed to him by Wang Zhongchang, wrote the poem with flying phoenixes, blew dry the ink marks, and handed the paper to Hou Ruoyi.
"How are you doing?" Li Ke asked after a while.
"I only know that you are not doing well!" Hou Ruoyi said lightly, "Although you have achieved such achievements and status today, I know that you are not doing well! You are very tired, your heart is very tired, and you have been fighting against fate!"
“…”
Li Ke did not speak and remained silent, but for Hou Ruoyi, silence was the default.
"In the battle of the Turks, hundreds of thousands of soldiers died on both sides, in the battle of Tuyuhun, in the battle of Tubo several battles, nearly millions of people died. Is this the result you want?" Hou Ruoyi said coldly, "Are you still Li Ke who reads "The Analects of Confucius" during the Lantern Festival? You are not--"
Li Ke was still silent, and he just stared at the woman he liked but couldn't get.
"I'm afraid the books you read the most now are "The Art of War" and "Shangshu"!" Hou Ruoyi sneered and continued, "Your Highness, why bother? You are too tired, you are really too tired. Ruoyi understands your heart. You carry hundreds of thousands of dead souls of the Tang Dynasty. You carry the lives and glory of brothers who followed you through life and death. You hold the safety and health of your wife, sons and daughters. You care about the future of the tens of thousands of people in the Tang Dynasty. You live in such a responsibility. When can you let it go? "
"So, Ruoyi understands you, Ruoyi understands your difficulties, Ruoyi doesn't want to make things difficult for you, Ruoyi wants nothing, but Ruoyi only wants you to live a good life, do you understand? Ruoyi only wants you to live a good life, but have you done it?" Hou Ruoyi began to cry as she said.
Li Ke wanted to come forward to hug her, but he thought so, but his feet still didn't move and he stuck in place steadily.
"Your Highness, take care of yourself! Ruoyi has lost her composure!" Hou Ruoyi then strode away after saying that.
Li Ke was left behind.
Why?
Why is this happening?
Why do you naturally dare not hug her and can’t hug her?
Why, she is still so kind and innocent, and there is no change at all?
Why, she is still thinking about herself?
