Chapter 201 Chasing the North (fifty)
Li Yan has been very unhappy these days.
When my sister Li Xiu was not married, the family was in harmony and there were not so many messy things. Why did the brothers and sisters in the family become like this when they married Chai Shao and left Chang'an?
It turned out that everyone was not distinguished from each other, but now most of them chose to circle around the elder brother. Those who couldn't post were treated coldly, and the second brother was even more excluded and targeted. If my father hadn't protected him and praised him from time to time, I still didn't know what would have happened!
The second brother Li Shimin's temper is very attractive to Li Yan. He is tough and decisive, refreshed, and does not have the style of many aristocratic children. The red tape and arrogance around Jiancheng really make Li Yan really have a lot of appetite.
Especially the one named Xie Shufang, a child of the Jiangzuo Xie family, was surrounded by fragrant powder, often with wide sleeves and high crowns, holding jade Ruyi and looking dashing. Li Yan didn't believe that when his ancestors won the Battle of Feishui, they looked like a sissy look!
But Xie Shufang wanted to marry the Li family and had ulterior motives for Li Yan. Li Jiancheng seemed to be happy to see him, which made Li Yan feel even more uncomfortable.
Although Li Yan looks pretty with big eyes, she is used to being strong-willed. She has always been fond of fighting at home since she was a child. The more popular Li Jiancheng looks, the more Li Yan is facing Li Jiancheng, and she looks towards her second brother Li Shimin everywhere. It can be regarded as a rebellious mentality.
In the past, Li Yan used to mock her elder brother at some family gatherings and deliberately said a few good things to her second brother. Jiancheng never thought it was too much, just smile. Li Yan was also proud of her courage to speak up for justice, and never feared her eldest brother's position as a prince, and was full of chivalrous spirit.
But this time, it was the eldest brother who drove his second brother to Mayi!
The eldest brother followed his father to Chang'an to make meritorious contributions, but the second brother wanted to take a side army to guard the retreat for his elder brother, lying in the snow and ice in Mayi to endure the hard work!
This is too unfair!
Li Yan immediately told Li Shimin the news and asked Li Shimin to appeal to his father.
However, my second brother, who has always been happy to do things, remained silent this time. A few days later, my father decided to really let my second brother go to Mayi!
In Jinyang City, the news spread immediately. Everyone said that the position of Jiancheng's prince is unshakable. Li Shimin, who was still a little competitive, has been completely included in another book by Li Yuan. Those brothers and sisters who were close to Jiancheng were even more contented, and they all thought that they had bets and could be protected for their wealth in the future. For Li Yan, who has always regarded herself as a chivalrous girl and faced Jiancheng everywhere, they inevitably had some strange eyes.
Li Yan has been spoiled by her father, loved by her sister, and gave in to her brother. When did she suffer such grievances?
He immediately went to find Li Jiancheng's mansion. The general of Li Jiancheng's family just said that the master was not here and did not know where he went. He went to play tricks on his father, but Li Yuan also avoided him. In the end, Dou took action and scolded Li Yan. In the Li family, Li Yan just didn't know how to deal with Dou and retreated in shame.
He went to find Li Shimin to prepare for a stir in the united front, but Li Shimin ran around the various military camps again, selecting the camps, preparing military supplies and equipment, and checking the civilians. He was so busy that he could not meet at all.
In the end, Li Yan, who felt that she had suffered the biggest setback in the career of a female hero, simply made up her mind and found a family general, threatened and tempted her, replaced her identity, and no matter what she said, she would be able to come to the schoolyard and let her say that she would be like this!
When Li Yan really arrived at the school ground, the power of three thousand troops going on the expedition was the first time Li Yan had seen such a scene, even Li Yan, who was used to being willful, knew that no matter how much she made a fuss, she could not change the situation.
At this time, just say goodbye to your second brother.
After forcing the two brothers Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji to retreat with his eyes, Li Yan rode his horse and came to Li Shimin. Li Shimin also felt helpless and a doting look, looking at this girl who was quite close to him.
Li Yan looked at Li Shimin and didn't know what to say for a moment, so she finally squeezed out two words: "Second brother..."
Li Shimin smiled and said, "You can't change the military and national affairs by knowing that you are just by your own nature? For the sake of the Li family, there will always be someone going to Mayi. It is also a matter of my duty to leave like this."
Li Yan frowned and snorted: "I just can't calm down my chest! When my third sister comes back, I will go and invite my third sister to stand up!"
Li Shimin laughed: "Stop talking about children, wait for me to pass through Mayi and bring you fun things. Stay in Jinyang, don't make trouble."
Li Yan snorted again: "What can I do? The big things are all your men's family. I'm just making trouble. Don't look at me from father to Dalang, who actually takes me seriously? Can I still interfere with the military and national affairs of your men's family?"
Li Shimin smiled bitterly: "It's a child's words again. If we are bloody and desperate, we are not allowed to join the Li family. Can't we let the Li family's daughter join? We work so hard, so that we can be safe and happy for the rest of our lives."
Li Yan replied quietly: "But I don't want such peace and joy."
As for what kind of life she wants, Li Yan doesn't know.
In a blink of an eye, Li Yan squeezed out a smile again: "Second brother, you go to war today, don't say this. I wish you a triumphant return as soon as possible after going north! It's not in vain that I'm wearing my family clothes, and I'm here!"
Amid the voices, Li Yan held her fists like a man and bowed to Li Shimin immediately.
Li Shimin held his fists and eyebrows solemnly, and returned the favor to his own girl.
The drums suddenly became dense, which was to announce the auspicious time for the coach to set off.
Li Shimin rode his horse and turned north, raised his qi and shouted: "Get out!"
Dozens of generals sang promises in unison, and the sound was as if thunderous. Li Shimin never looked back, surrounded by dozens of generals of the royal family, heading north in the flying flags!
The father and son of the Li family were in different moods and looked at Li Shimin's heroic back.
Li Yan thought for a while and suddenly shouted behind her back: "Second brother, bring Xu Le back this time! I want to see what kind of amazing character that is!"
Li Shimin did not turn around, raised the horse whip, indicating that he could hear his sister's words.
Horse hooves flipped, smoke and dust flew.
Although under the arrangement of Li Jiancheng, he went to a remote place in the north to guard the retreat road and went west to Chang'an Daye, and saw no difference.
But Li Shimin was in a hot mood.
In this Jinyang City, as long as Li Jiancheng is there, he will have no chance.
Although he was calm about Changsun Wuji, how could Li Shimin have no thoughts about the position of the prince?
After all, this is a troubled time, and the heroic and enterprising heir is the best choice for the Li family!
