Chapter 80 Two Princesses

"Fengjie?"

Looking at the tall and thin young man standing in front of him, Li Yanqing felt disappointed and a little surprised.

I thought it was my father who wanted to give me a surprise, but I didn't expect that it was not my father who came, but a friend whom he was very familiar with when he was young, Dou Fengjie.

It has been five years since we last met Dou Fengjie.

At that time, Dou Fengjie was ordered to go to Taiyuan to make a marriage, and then followed Dou Kang to Shuozhou. When Li Yanqing became the general of the Black Stone Guanying Yanglang, he thought about transferring Dou Fengjie to his side. However, for various reasons, Dou Fengjie did not come in the end and stayed in Shuozhou.

The north wind in Shuozhou made Dou Fengjie look much more stable.

She has become thinner than before and taller, and is as shy as a girl. However, her slightly dark face reveals a hint of strength. Looking at the young man in front of her, it makes people unable to associate him with the cowardly boy back then.

"Yangzhen, do you still recognize me?"

The young man following Dou Fengjie suddenly spoke.

He is burly and sturdy.

The bronze face, thick eyebrows and big eyes, all of them have a kind of heroic spirit in every move.

When Li Yanqing saw him, he couldn't help but laugh again.

"I'm stunned by Xue Sanlang... Ha, Brother Xue San, have you always been good?"

Xue Sanlang is the nickname of Xue Wanche.

After hearing Li Yanqing's name, Xue Wanche couldn't help laughing, stepped forward and hugged Yan Qing hard, and pounded Li Yanqing a few times.

"You guy, you didn't say goodbye to Wuyi, but it's been six or seven years in a flash!"

"Hey, I've been in Gong County all the time. It's clear that you don't come to see me... You don't know that I lived in seclusion in those years."

Xue Wanche laughed and hugged Li Yanqing again.

"Don't talk nonsense. I was in Zhuo County a few years ago and I couldn't get out of it. But you guy, no one would stop you if you wanted to leave. But you guy was so hiding so deeply... If I hadn't come this time, I really didn't know that you were..."

"Ahem!"

Just when Xue Wanche was very excited, a gentle cough suddenly interrupted his words.

Li Yanqing looked in the voice and saw a middle-aged man standing behind Xue Wanche and Dou Fengjie. He was about eight feet tall and elegant. However, his eyes flashed with a gloomy light. His lips were a little thin, which added a bit of disharmonious look to his pretty appearance. The middle-aged man stood with his hands behind his back, his expression looked very arrogant, his brows frowned, and stared at Li Yanqing.

"Yangzhen, let me introduce it, this person is..."

"I am Li Xiaogong, and I am ordered by Emperor Tang, and I have important things to tell you."

Lee Hyo-gong?

Li Yanqing was shocked and couldn't help but look at the person up and down.

This person is amazing. Among the twenty-four heroes of Lingyan Pavilion in history, this person ranks second. From this we can see that Li Xiaogong has strengthened Li Er's supporters. However, in terms of merit, background, character, and the evaluation of him in Tang history even surpassed Changsun Wuji.

In terms of seniority, Li Xiaogong is Li Yanqing's cousin, seven years older than Li Yanqing, and just reached his thirty years.

In terms of origin, Li Yanqing's father Li Xiaoji was implicated by his father Li Zhang and fled all his life. Not to mention fame, I am afraid that even the real name will be revealed. Li Xiaogong's father Li An was the general of the left-leading army during the Kaihuang period of the Sui Dynasty.

"It's the current Princess Danyang."

Li Yanqing vaguely remembers that Xue Wanche seemed to have married a princess.

But he really didn't have a deep impression of the princess. In fact, Yan Qing basically didn't have much affection for the princess in the Tang Dynasty. Including Dou Fengjie's Li Yongjia, who is now named Princess Fangling, is said to be a arrogant and domineering person.

This is what Li Xiaoji often said to Yan Qing when he came to Gong County.

At that time, Lee Hyo-gi had already begun to tell Li Yanqing about the situation in the Li family intentionally or unintentionally, and make plans for Yanqing's future.

Li Yuan now has fifteen daughters.

The eldest daughter, Princess Changsha, married Feng Shaoshi, and the couple was harmonious; the second daughter, Princess Xiangyang, married Dou Dan, the son of Dou Kang; the third daughter, Princess Pingyang, needs no further words; the fourth daughter, Princess Gaomi, married the son of Changsun Shunde, and Changsun Xiaozheng. However, I heard that the couple was not very harmonious and had endless noise throughout the day; the fifth daughter, Princess Guiyang, and the sixth daughter, Princess Changsha...

In short, among Li Yuan’s fifteen daughters, Danyang is the youngest, but when he gets married, he encounters other sisters.

Li Yanqing was not good at commenting on this, so he did not continue the topic.

Li Xiaogong sat aside and had no comments, as if there was no such person in the lobby.

However, Yan Qing knew that Li Xiaogong was secretly observing him, just as he was secretly observing Li Xiaogong.

After the greetings, Yan Qing asked, "If you two princesses stay in Chang'an, why are you going to Xingyang?"

Li Xiaogong coughed at this time and said in a deep voice: "We are here this time to follow His Majesty's will. Before we come, His Majesty asks us to bring you a word."

"oh?"

"Your Majesty said, Yangzhen, are you ready?"

Just this sentence made Li Yanqing feel excited and chill.

The meaning hidden in this sentence is very deep. If you don’t savor it carefully, you may not understand what Li Yuan means.

But Li Yanqing knew that Li Yuan was asking him if he was ready to return to his hometown and recognize his ancestors?

Since Li Yuan asked this question, it means that Li Yuan had made up his mind to use troops to Heluo and was preparing to regain Luoyang!

Xue Shou's words were still in his ears.

Li Tang is easy to use the surprise weapons...

When everyone thought that Li Tang was unable to fight again this year, Li Yuan suddenly decided to go to Hangu. Li Yanqing didn't know if this was really Li Yuan's idea. If so, then the evaluation of Li Yuan in historical books would be too bad.

With a wave of his hand, Shen Guang quietly withdrew from the lobby.

Li Yanqing said in a deep voice: "When will your Majesty be planning to send troops?"

Li Xiaogong couldn't help but be shocked, and looked at Li Yanqing in horror, with an incredible look in his eyes.

He actually knew that the emperor was going to send troops to Luoyang?

The Samurai, who was sitting at the bottom of the head, had a flushed face and his breathing seemed a little quick. Finally, it was about to start! He raised his head, stared at Lee Hyo-gong, and waited for his answer.

"Originally, my father was not going to send troops this year."

Dou Fengjie said, "But the King of Qin advised everyone, saying that everyone thought there would be no war in Guanzhong this year, including Wang Shichong. When everyone thought that the war would not start, it was actually the best time to start the war. Wang Shichong was not prepared at this time. If he sent troops to Guanzhong at this time, he could conquer it in one fell swoop... After thinking for a long time, his father finally agreed with the King of Qin's idea and decided to send troops."

Li Yanqing has been waiting for this day for a long time.

But when this day really came, he was not so excited and seemed very calm.

He picked up the tea cup on the tea table with a relaxed expression, took a sip, and asked, "What are you going to do when your Majesty is going to ask me again?"

"Your Majesty wants you to restrain Wang Shichong's troops, and at the same time, you have to rent Dou Jiande's troops north of the Yellow River.

Before the Battle of Luoyang ends, Dou Jiande cannot cross the river half a step. If necessary, he can give up Ji County and Hanoi and defend Xingyang with all his strength."

To restrain Wang Shichong's troops, you must also block Dou Jiande's rescue!

Isn’t this going to be attacked from both sides?

Li Yanqing frowned and fell into deep thought.

"If necessary, you can mobilize the troops and horses of Hedong to help you. However, the war in Hedong has just ended and has not yet recovered, so I am afraid that you will not be able to provide much help. Your Majesty also said that once the war begins in Heluo, you must stick to it until November. The King of Qin will mobilize the troops and horses of Guanzhong and the troops will come to Luoyang. During this period, Fengjie and I both listen to your orders... Your Majesty also said that when the war begins, you will be the only one who decides."

Li Yanqing touched his chin and pondered without saying a word.

"Why, why don't Li Langjun stay in Xingyang?"

He suddenly asked.

Without waiting for Li Xiaogong to answer, Dou Fengjie explained: "Brother Li is now serving as the general manager of the Jingxiang Road marching, and will go to Lu County early tomorrow morning."

Is the general manager of the Jingxiang Road marching?

Li Yanqing raised his head and looked at Li Xiaogong.
