It is impossible to say that Li Ye has no thoughts about Li Jianrong.

It's just that he is more traditional and feels that he has no emotional foundation and cannot cope with it psychologically.

Traveling to this strange era, his need for family affection is even greater.

That's why he looked highly at Liu Quanli. After all, he was someone close to him. Now that Liu Quanli was sent to Pizhou to befriend Wang Xingyu, the only person close to him was Li Jianrong.

Before I had eaten a few mouthfuls, Xiao Huangmen rushed in in a panic, saying that Zhang Chengye was back.

Li Ye still had time to eat, so he quickly put down his bowl and chopsticks.

"Your Majesty, please eat before leaving." Li Jianrong advised softly.

Li Ye smiled back and went out.

Zhang Chengye had been away for almost a month, and Li Keyong was conquering Li Cunxiao in Hebei. He must have pursued him all the way from Hedong to Hebei.

There were many people in Zichen Palace, and there was probably an undercover agent in the inner courtyard of the palace. Li Ye summoned Zhang Chengye in Tianxin Pavilion and asked Xin Silang to guard the outer gate to prevent anyone from approaching.

Zhang Chengye also brought two people with him, a young man of 17 or 18 years old, with a strong and tall body and hunched arms. At first glance, he looked like a majestic hero from Hebei. Although he was wearing black clothes and a hood, his bright eyes could not be blocked.

He looked at the emperor curiously.

It must be unusual for this man to be brought to see the emperor by Zhang Chengye.

"Everyone!" Zhang Chengye saluted respectfully.

The young man behind him half-knelt on the ground: "Greetings to Your Majesty!"

"No ceremony." Li Ye has always disliked red tape and helped Zhang Chengye and the young people.

"Everyone, I am going to Hebei. Fortunately, I have fulfilled my mission. The alliance has been completed, and I have found a good general for your majesty! This is Gao Xingzhou, the queen of the generals in Hebei."

Gao Xingzhou? Li Ye was shocked, "Are you the son of Gao Siji, a white horse and a silver spear?"

Gao Xingzhou knelt on the ground again, "The last general is right!" Li Ye was overjoyed when he heard this. In his previous life, he especially liked to read Romance of the Three Kingdoms and admired Luo Guanzhong very much. Later, after checking the information, he found that he had also written a Romance of the Tang Dynasty and the Five Dynasties.

, but not as famous as the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. There are many heroes in the book. In addition to Li Keyong's Thirteen Taibao, Xia Luqi from Li Cunxu's era, Wang Yanzhang from the Later Liang Dynasty and other fierce men, there are also Gao Siji, Gao Xingzhou and his son from the Gao family in Hebei.

Gao Siji is known as "the best gun in the world"! He created his own Four Seasons Boxing and Gaojia Qiang, which are quite famous in Hebei.

The Gao family served as generals for generations, almost throughout the entire late Tang Dynasty and Five Dynasties.

In history, there were three members of the Gao family who were crowned kings, and they were always on the front line against the Liao Kingdom.

Gao Huaide, the founding general of the Northern Song Dynasty and Prince of Bohai County, was the grandson of Gao Xingzhou, and Gao Chong, the fierce general of the Yue Family Army in later generations, was also a descendant of Gao Xingzhou.

I have to say that Zhang Chengye has a ruthless vision and can even find such a person.

Immediately, Zhang Chengye briefly told how the two met. The Gao family and his son were generals under Li Kuangwei in Lulong Town.

The last time the imperial court ordered Zhang Jun to lead the army to attack Li Keyong, Hebei Li Kuangwei, Datong Helianduo and others responded positively.

But Li Cunxiao showed great power and defeated the central army of the imperial court, and Li Keyong calmly dealt with Li Kuangwei and Helianduo.

Li Kuangwei was defeated in the army and became drunk and had sex with his sister-in-law. His younger brother Li Kuangchou was angry and rebelled. He occupied the Magpie Nest and seized the position of Lulong Jiedushi. Li Kuangwei defected to Chengde Jiedushi Wang Rong.

Gao Siji was a garrison general under Li Kuangwei. He was unwilling to join Wang Rong, so he could only return to Lulong.

But Li Kuangchou didn't tolerate him, and suppressed him one after another, trying to make him wear little shoes.

Hebei was in chaos. Of course, Li Keyong would not give up such a good opportunity for revenge. He opened his bows from left to right, suppressing Li Cunxiao with one hand and attacking Li Kuangchou with the other hand, together with Lu Yanwei, the military governor of Yichang.

The Gao family and his son have always been in a state of residual health, and they have been fighting continuously.

How could Li Kuangchou be Li Keyong's opponent? He was defeated in battles one after another. Gao Xingzhou became a prisoner inexplicably and was escorted to Li Keyong's camp, where he happened to be seen by Zhang Chengye.

Zhang Chengye saw that Gao Xingzhou was extraordinary, but others didn't and just regarded him as an ordinary prisoner.

How could a fierce young man like Gao Xingzhou feel comfortable being a prisoner?

At night, he took advantage of the laxity of Shatuo's soldiers and killed several people. As soon as he left the camp, he was blocked by Zhang Chengye, who had ulterior motives. After a conversation, Gao Xingzhou decided to return to the imperial court.

At this time, the Tang court was still orthodox in the world, and people all over the world still regarded themselves as Tang people.

The benefit brought by identity recognition is psychological recognition.

Li Ye originally thought about letting him join the Bunny, but after thinking about it, he felt that it was not a good idea. After all, the Bunny temple was too small, and he was afraid that it would not be able to accommodate this great god, so he asked him to join the Shence Army with Zhang Chengye first.

With Zhang Chengye in charge, Shence Army will be transformed sooner or later, and Gao Xingzhou will make great achievements.

On the other hand, Gao Xingzhou can also protect Zhang Chengye.

With the two of them here, Li Ye no longer has to worry about Shen Cejun.

It is a joy to congratulate him for the double happiness. Li Ye entertained him diligently, behaved respectfully, and did not have the domineering spirit of a warrior in the late Tang Dynasty. Li Ye had to admire Gao Siji for his skill in educating his son.

With Gao Xingzhou, Li Ye would certainly not let Gao Siji go.

It's just that Gao Siji is a hero and a leading soldier in Hebei. He has an army under his command. To conquer this man, we can only take a long-term approach.

The only pity he felt was Wang Yanzhang. At this time, he was at the height of his popularity among the Liang army, and he was very loyal to Zhu Liang. With the decline of the Tang Dynasty, it would be difficult to conquer this person.

You must not be greedy, and being able to conquer Gao Xingzhou is already blessed by the ancestors of the Li family.

Moreover, Li Ye felt that with the rise of warriors in the late Tang Dynasty, there were countless famous generals. In the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, which family did not have a few famous generals?

The key is whether you can control it.

Even if you can control them, how can you prevent them from forming new vassal towns?

Wang Jian, Li Maozhen, Han Jian, Wang Xingyu and others were all from the Shence Army. They were loyal to Yizong and Xizong, fought bloody battles with Huang Chao and Zhu Mei, and risked their lives several times to save them.

But what happened later? Without exception, they all became the gravediggers of the Tang Dynasty.

This made Li Ye think that there was a serious problem with Datang's national policy.

Only by removing the remaining skeleton of the old house and building a new one can we untie this knot.

The new house is also called Datang, but it is essentially different from the old house.

No emperor of the Tang Dynasty could do it, because they were members of the old house and were accustomed to the benefits brought by the old house.

When we got to Li Ye, we had no choice.

Otherwise, it will be drowned together with the old house in the tide of the times.

Wang Xingyu of Xingning received the appointment from the imperial court and was not satisfied with it. He wanted to make a fuss again. After being warned by Li Maozhen, Wang Xingyu went dormant and started fighting fiercely with Liu Quanli.

Major affairs in the court were still controlled by Han Quanhui and Cui Zhaowei. Cui Yin would appear from time to time. The three of them fought back and forth, but no one could do anything. The reason why Li Ye let Cui Yin and Cui Zhaowei stand in the court was to balance Han Quanhui and Cui Zhaowei.

Li Maozhen, the three parties restrained each other and avoided collusion.

After living in Chang'an for some time, Li Jianrong took good care of me.

Li Ye feels that Wenrou Township is a graveyard for heroes, and indulging in women is tantamount to courting death.

Now that Zhang Chengye is back, with him in charge, with Zhao Chongning as assistant in literature, Gao Xingzhou as military guard, and Liu Quanli as foreign aid, Chang'an is as stable as Mount Tai.

In this way, he can devote his energy to Xiliu Camp.

Xiliu Camp is his fundamental place.

In order to avoid attracting the attention of people with ulterior motives, Li Ye changed into regular clothes and, accompanied by Xin Silang, quietly rushed to Xiliu Camp without even saying goodbye to Li Jianrong.

After leaving Chang'an City, I immediately felt like a bird escaping from its cage.

It was just that he was shocked when he saw Xiliuying.

Is this still the original Xiliu Camp? It should be called Xiliu City.

An earthen wall was built outside, and many wooden houses were built inside. People came and went, some leading cavalry out, and some carrying wood and stones back to the city. What shocked Li Ye the most was that in front of the camp near the Weishui River, there was an open road.

Many fertile fields were planted, and green seedlings sprouted from the soil.
