Chapter 117 Unexpected Parting

On May 26 of the first year of Qianfeng, the prince Li Hong, Li Xian, the king of Lu, and Li Xian, the king of Zhou, jointly recommended Zhao Renben, the former servant of the Ministry of Ceremonies, to take the position of minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. The ministers followed the trend and attached this chapter one after another, and the book flew into the ban like a snowflakes. After three days of the queen of martial arts, who was temporarily on behalf of the emperor, finally had no choice. The joint sponsorship of the three princes, Liu Xiangdao's case has come to an end. The result can only be regarded as the loss of both the prince and the Empress Wu. Neither of them has the upper hand. The only one who has benefited is the Li Xian brothers. They took the opportunity to stuff a group of people in the court. Although they are generally the majority of middle and lower officials, the actual influence But it has grown up unconsciously.

At the end of May of the first year of Qianfeng, Yuan Gai Su Wen, a powerful minister in Goguryeo, died of illness. His three sons fought for the throne. The eldest son Yuan, who was temporarily in charge of state affairs, was defeated. He had to turn to the Tang Dynasty and asked the Tang Dynasty to send troops to help him. On the sixth day of June, he arrived in Beijing. The ministers of the Gaozong Conference, who had just recovered from a serious illness, discussed countermeasures. After discussion, they decided He intended to send troops to Goguryeo. On the seventh day of June, Emperor Gaozong issued an edict, ordering You Xiaowei General Qi He Li to be the appeasement ambassador of Liaodong and lead the troops to rescue Quan boys; he ordered Quan Xiancheng to be the general of You Wuwei as a guide; he also ordered Pang Tongshan, the general of Zuo Jinwuwei, and Gao Kan, the governor of Yingzhou, to be the commander-in-chief of the march and jointly fight against Goryeo.

On the third day of the ninth month of the first year of Qianfeng, Pang Tongshan defeated the Korean army and joined the spring boy. Gao Zong ordered the boy Quan to be Tejin, the governor of Liaodong, the ambassador of Pyongyang Road, and the county magistrate of Xuandu. He ordered Li Ji to be the general manager of the Liaodong Road march, the prime minister Hao Chujun as the deputy general manager, Qi He Li and Pang Tongshan were also the deputy general manager and the appeasement ambassador. Xue Rengui, the general of the Zuo Yulin Army, was the chief general of the vanguard army, and the general of the water and land army. Dou Yiji, Dugu Qingyun, Guo Jiefeng, etc. were also affected by Li Ji, and all the roads hit Goryeo together. All the leases of Zhuzhou County, Hebei Province were requisitioned for military use in Liaodong, and a large-scale war to destroy the country began.

It's going to fight a big battle, or a big battle that is doomed to win, but Li Xian can't get excited. Not only is he not excited, but he is extremely lost and depressed. This is not what kind of pity Li Xian has for Goguryeo, which is about to be destroyed. In fact, whether in the previous life or in this life, Li Xian has no trace of Goryeo sticks. I can't wait to completely wipe out this cancer that grows on the edge of the Tang Dynasty as soon as possible. How can I have much pity for him? There are only two things that make Li Xian feel uncomfortable. First, he failed to catch up. Who let Li Xian live for a few years, can only watch others gallop on the battlefield, but he is only in the capital. Li is cool, that's all. What really makes Li Xian feel extremely depressed and angry is the second one - Li Boyao was ordered to transfer Sima of the Liaodong Governor's Office to join the military and join the army to goguryeo!

Retaliation, this is a complete revenge, that is, the Empress Wu and other people can do this kind of thing - in the whole Zuo Xiaowei, only Li Boyao was transferred to the front-line army. This is not to mention that he actually got it to the local army to take up the post. The official rank is one level higher than before, which can be regarded as an official promotion, and there is also sand. For Li Boyao, the opportunity to make achievements in the field is satisfactory, but for Li Xian, that's not the case. In this case, not to mention the absence of the full-time master of martial arts, what makes Li Xian more annoying is that the "Wei Gong's Art of War" that has been lost for a long time. This is not obvious. Isn't it pleasant to find Li Xian? In addition to the Empress Wu, who else would have done such a boring act? That thought is nothing more than saying: Do you want to practice martial arts? I just won't let you do what you want.

Unpleasure, extremely unpleasure, but no matter how upset it is, some things still have to be done. No matter what happens in the future, Li Boyao has been Li Xian's master for nearly two years, and his teaching is also dedicated. Now the master is going on an expedition, Li Xian is an apprentice. My younger brother can't say it at all. That's too outrageous. Therefore, although he was very tired of it, Li Xian still cheered up. Almost as soon as he learned the news that Li Boyang was going to go on an expedition, he prepared enough gifts and rushed to the Duke of Wei in a carriage.

"The last general will see His Royal Highness the King of Zhou."

Li Xian is the identity of the prince. When he arrived outside the house, the whole Duke of Wei had to be busy. Whether he was willing or not, he had to open the middle door to greet him. Even if Li Boya had the name of a master, he still had to salute him on such formal occasions.

"General Li doesn't have to be polite. I heard that General Li will have a good opportunity to make achievements in the battlefield in the future. Xiao Wang came to congratulate him." Li Xian has had a good relationship with Li Boyao in the past two years, and he is often casually called "master" in private. However, at this time, Li Xian will not deliberately pretend to be intimate on serious occasions, which is very formal and half-courtesy and speaks gently.

"I dare not be the last general. Your Highness, please. My father is already waiting for Your Highness in the front hall."

Li Boyao just got a letter from the Ministry of War, and it didn't take long to return home. Seeing that Li Xian came so quickly, he was very useful in his heart. However, he was calm by nature, but he did not say anything. He just bowed and thanked, and then waved his hand and made a "please" gesture.

"General Li, please."

Li Xian came here just to send him off. In fact, he didn't really want to enter the Duke of Wei's Mansion. However, the rules are the rules. If it's not necessary, Li Xian didn't plan to break it. He smiled and made a "please" gesture. After replying, he took the lead in lifting his feet into the open middle door and just turned around. On a wall in the courtyard, he saw that Li Deqian had already led the door waiting at the entrance of the hall. Li Xian smiled and strode over.

"I have seen His Royal Highness the King of Zhou. Your Highness is here, and the cold house is shining." In the past few years, Li Xian's style in the court has been showing day by day, and Li Deqian has seen it. Although he still has no intention of relying on Li Xian, his words are a little more polite and flattered than before.

"Duke Wei is disturbed. Xiao Wang has always been instructed by General Li and has benefited a lot. Now I heard that General Li will go on an expedition to Goguryeo. Xiao Wang specially prepared some small gifts, thinking that General Li is strong." After Li Xian returned the gift with a smile, he waved his hand, and Gao Miao, who followed closely behind him, held the gift list in front of Li Deqian.

"Your Highness, you are polite. My Li family is deeply favored by the emperor. It is my duty to serve the country. I really dare not be a great gift." Li Deqian was born in a rich family. He didn't look at gifts or gifts, but he was full of Li Xian's heart. When he made a retort, his eyes narrowed with a smile.

"There is no need for Mr. Wei to refuse. What Xiao Wang sent is just two horses, a pair of armor, bows, knives, horse blades and other battlefield utensils. They are used by General Li. It's really not worth mentioning. Please ask Mr. Wei to accept them for him." Li Xian said it was easy, but the horse he sent was a thousand-mile horse produced by Neiyuan. Bows, knives, etc. were all the best weapons worth a lot of money, all of which were forged by famous people. With the whole set of equipment, it could not be equipped at all.

"Ah, this... Well, then I will thank Your Highness for your good intentions on behalf of the dog." Li Deqian didn't see the real thing. Just listening to Li Xian say so lightly, he didn't care too much about it. After all, if these commonly used things are ordinary goods, it's really not too rare. There are many in the Duke of Wei's mansion. After a little meditation, he also laughed and accepted it. Then, after chatting with Li Xian for a few words, he found a As an excuse, he led the family to retreat and made room for Li Xian's master and apprentice to talk by themselves.

What should I say? When it came to the time when the master and apprentice were about to be separated, Li Xian really didn't know what to say for a moment. He silently looked at Li Boyiao's heroic face. Thinking of Li Boyu's diligent teaching in the past two years, Li Xian's eyes couldn't help moistening a little, and Li Boyiao was not a talkative person at this time. I also didn't know what to say, so the master and apprentice sat opposite each other so quietly. Quietly, a sadness of parting spread in this hall.

"Master, take care. I wish you a triumphant return as soon as possible."

It's not a way to keep silent like this. Li Xian took a deep breath and suppressed the sadness in his heart, revealing a really not-looking smiling face. After holding it for a long time, he said a nonsense that was not nutritious.

"People are sinister. Please take care of yourself, Your Highness."

Although Li Boyao never participated in the entanglement in the court, her vision was very sharp. She knew that the court had already been surging. If it had been in the past, he would not say anything to Li Xian, but the parting was imminent. Li Boyao finally couldn't help reminding him.

"Well, thank you for your advice. I know it well."

Li Xian obviously didn't expect Li Boyao to say such words. First, he was surprised, and then warm. However, such things could not be spread out. In addition, Li Xian did not intend to pull the Duke of Wei's Mansion into his chariot. He gently nodded his head. After responding to a sentence, he got up and looked at Li Bo. Yao bowed and said with a little excitement, "Master, take care. I'm good bye."

"Hmm." Li Boyao was not very polite this time. She sat down and received a gift from Li Xian. Then she took out a box from her wide sleeves, held her hands on her chest, and stared at Li Xian with bright eyes and said, "Your Highness has called Li's master for so long. Li has never dared to accept it. He doesn't want to. He really can't hear it. Now, parting is about to happen. I don't know goodbye. When is it? If Your Highness wants to follow martial arts, please worship someone else as your teacher. Li has nothing else to give. Only the things in this box may be used by Your Highness. Please take a look after your Highness back home.

"Thank you for your gift. I'm good bye."

Although Li Boyao made it clear that she could not be her own teacher, Li Xian still treated her with the teacher's courtesy. After worshipping, she stretched out her hands and took the box. She turned around and walked out of the hall without looking back. She just seemed to hear a sigh from the hall...
