Chapter 67 Rejection
Staring at Long Feiyu's clear eyes, Li Shimin nodded and said: "Okay, as you said, ten thousand troops keep an eye on Wuyuan. As long as Wuyuan is in our hands, the Turkic people will have scruples. They dare not rush south and Don't dare to start a war rashly, as long as you defend Wuyuan Zhen, I will give you a first merit."

Obviously, Liang Shidu is more important than the Turkic people in Li Shimin's eyes at present, and the geographical location they occupy is too important.Echoing with the Turkic people in the Hetao Grassland, Chang'an was always exposed to the Turkic cavalry. If the Turkic army suddenly went south to Chang'an, it would be impossible to respond in time.

Li Shimin, who suffered once, would not commit the same problem again, so he planned to attack Master Liang.It is not difficult to defeat Liang Shidu, but the Turkic people managed to place the commander under their cavalry, so how could they easily let this advantage be lost.As long as Li Shimin makes a move, the Turks will definitely come to help.

In order to isolate Liang Shidu, Li Shimin thought of sending people to garrison Wuyuan to deter the Turks so that they would not dare to go south to support.However, although several famous generals in the court have the ability to defeat the Turkic people, they do not have the ability to take the initiative to attack and can only defend. If they are placed in Wuyuan, the Turkic people will definitely not be afraid, and they want to calmly deal with Liang Teachers will be in trouble.

But Long Feiyu was different. After passing through Hexi, Li Shimin saw a handsome man full of aggressiveness.Within the area under his control, those soldiers were surprisingly energetic and drove the Turkic people out without a trace.Moreover, the battle in Mobei caused Jieli heartache. Once Long Feiyu was sent there, Jieli would not dare to send out an army even if he wanted to help Master Liang.

As long as he makes a slight change, Long Feiyu is not a peaceful master. If Jieli's army crosses the Yellow River, he may have to stay on the south bank of the Yellow River for the rest of his life. Feiyu got the remote Wuyuan and put his best sword in the best attacking position.

Long Feiyu nodded slightly relieved when he heard Li Shimin agree to his terms.Fortunately, I was born in this era, only the emperor's delegating power can make the ministers take off.And Li Shimin is just such a person. He has his own life experience and personality charm, and he is confident enough to convince every courtier under him.

Seeing Long Feiyu nodding, Li Shimin smiled and said: "Come on, your father was invited into the palace by the Supreme Emperor, and it happened that the Supreme Emperor wanted to see you. After having dinner in the harem, you father and son should go home together."

Long Feiyu nodded, and did not deliberately salute and thank him.However, Li Shimin knew Long Feiyu's character. Some people put their respect on the surface, but they were doing sneaky things behind their backs. Long Feiyu put his respect in his heart.It looks casual on the surface, but everything he does is for the sake of the whole Tang Dynasty, which is something that other courtiers don't have, so Li Shimin doesn't care about Long Feiyu's etiquette.

After Li Shimin finished speaking, he walked straight towards the harem. He had already asked Empress Changsun to stand in front of him, and now he wanted to get Long Feiyu's marriage settled.

Not long after, a few people arrived at Li Yuan's bedroom. Naturally, Li Shimin didn't need to wait for his arrival, but he strode into the bedroom after being told by the eunuch.When he was less than ten feet away from Li Yuan, he bent down to salute and called out kindly: "Father."

Li Yuan nodded as a response, and said worriedly, "Is the battle over?"

"Yes"

"How is Chengqian?"

"The body is a little weak, but it's not a serious problem. After a period of cultivation, it will be back to normal."

Li Yuan snorted, and suddenly stared at Long Feiyu who was not far away from Li Shimin. After a little sizing, he turned to look at Long Liang who was beside him and said, "Long Aiqing, is that boy your son?"

Long Liang nodded and said, "It's the dog."

Li Yuan smiled with satisfaction, and shouted to Long Feiyu: "Boy Long, come up a few steps and let me see you."

Long Feiyu said yes, strode towards Li Yuan, and stopped beside Li Shimin.At this time, it was not the court, Long Feiyu was not wearing official clothes, but only a simple white robe, except for his handsome and resolute face, there was nothing worthy of praise.

However, such a casual collocation further showed that Long Feiyu was not a follower.This put Li Yuan in a good mood, and asked slightly: "I heard that you forced Luo Yi to death in the army, how about your martial arts?"

Asked about martial arts, Long Feiyu scratched his head in embarrassment and said: "I have never competed with others, and I don't know how my martial arts are, so I dare not make rash comments."

Li Yuan chuckled and said, "You don't even know how high your own martial arts are, but those enemies who fought against you should know that, right?"

Long Feiyu shook his head and said: "I seldom make shots on weekdays, and my enemies are all killed a few times, so I don't know whether it's my own strong martial arts, or the opponent is too weak, maybe I can tell the difference when I meet a master in the future." .”

Hearing Long Feiyu's answer, Li Yuan looked at Long Liang in bewilderment. Long Liang smiled wryly at Li Yuan, angrily reprimanded Long Feiyu and said, "You bastard, if the Supreme Emperor asks you how you wish, you can just tell the truth. What are you talking about?"

Long Feiyu said slightly aggrieved: "How can I know how good my martial arts are compared to me? The world is so big that I don't know how many people surpass me. How can I tell the level of martial arts? If you say it rashly, you will be guilty of deceiving the emperor." crime."

Long Liang was speechless when he said a word, but Li Yuan laughed and said: "You are interesting, because you can force Luo Yi to commit suicide, it shows your martial arts are strong. By the way, I heard that you have a brilliant literary talent, your calligraphy Even the emperor was amazed, and several poems that were popular in the Tang Dynasty were compiled into poems and sung."

Long Feiyu smiled modestly and said: "These are all innocuous things. The Supreme Emperor is too famous. I heard that the Supreme Emperor summoned me. I don't know what to order?"

Li Yuan laughed and said: "I and your father Long Liang are very good brothers. In the past, I promised to marry my daughter to you as my wife. Now you are old and weak, and you have reached the age to talk about marriage. Also It's time for me to fulfill my promise, if you fancy that daughter of mine, just say so."

Long Feiyu looked at Long Liang suspiciously, and Long Liang gave him a helpless look.Long Feiyu hurriedly cupped his hands to Li Yuan and said: "I thank the Supreme Emperor Long En, but I already have a wife. If I marry a princess, wouldn't the princess suffer with me."

Li Yuan said with a little relief: "Okay, you value love and righteousness. It's just a matter of status. I have granted your wife a concubine."

Long Feiyu looked around, except for Long Liang's helpless expression, Sanbao's expression was joy.And Li Shimin and Empress Changsun were even more smiling. As for the Ninth Princess on the other side, she knelt quietly beside Li Yuan.

After a little thought, Long Feiyu came to the conclusion: "Thanks to the care and love of the Supreme Emperor, this subject is just a warrior. There is nothing special about him, how can he be worthy of the princess's golden body, plus this humble subject is lazy by nature and has a stubborn temper. Marrying the princess to me is inevitable. I think I am not good enough for the princess, so I dare not marry the princess."

Long Feiyu's words made Li Yuan frowned immediately. Everyone knew that after marrying the princess, the future was bright, and there was an invisible talisman.However, there are only so many ministers and only so few princesses, so the son-in-law is just a rare one.Now that Long Feiyu refused, this displeased Li Yuan, who was always accustomed to the obedience of the crowd.Although he is not the emperor, he is not something that others can disobey. He just wanted to get angry, but he looked at Long Liang who was beside him.He laughed and persuaded: "You don't have to worry about this, my daughter is considerate and will definitely take care of your daily life."

Long Feiyu shook his head and said: "I like a quiet and peaceful life. If it weren't for the frequent wars, I hope that the family will have a happy and harmonious life. I will never participate in the affairs of the royal family."

Li Yuan thought that Long Feiyu was scared because of Li Jiancheng's matter, so he tried to comfort him: "Don't worry, you don't have to participate in the matter of you marrying the princess and the royal family."

"Half a son-in-law, I'm afraid you won't believe what the emperor said. I'm not a heartless person. If someone cares about something, I will definitely take care of it. The royal family has no family affection since ancient times. I don't want to put I am on the cusp of the storm, but if your majesty is afraid of the self-respect of the soldiers, plotting against the law, or wanting to protect the minister, there is no need to make so much effort. If there is nothing wrong with the frontier, the minister will naturally follow the example of Liu Hou and go back to seclusion."

The originally tense atmosphere became tense again because of Long Feiyu's few words. There is nothing wrong with it. Long Feiyu was telling the truth, but it would be too hurtful to tell the truth. Li Yuan and his son wanted to use the princess to protect and win them over. Reusing Long Feiyu, this is a well-known thing, but Long Feiyu said it rashly, which is not giving face to the two of them. Li Yuan's face that was originally smiling, became cold and cold because of Long Feiyu's words.

Those who are familiar with him know that Li Yuan is really angry at this moment. It has been a while since he was the emperor, but he has never seen someone disobey him like this, and his repeated persuasion has made the other party come back. This is not prepared at all. gave.

Before Li Yuan got angry, Li Shimin said in a timely manner: "Long Feiyu, you are not alone, don't you think about your fiancée and old father? You are brave, so naturally you are not afraid of any frame-up, but you have thought about your own family?"

Long Feiyu said indifferently: "Your Majesty wants to kill our father and son, no matter how we marry, it will be useless. A married woman can't compare to Li Tang's eternal life. If your majesty If you do something, even if you don’t have the protection of the princess, you will turn bad luck into good luck. What’s more, your majesty is a wise king through the ages, and your heart can be learned from the sun and the moon. Why should you be afraid of your majesty’s harm and pretend to marry the princess? The princess is also a human being, although she lives in the The royal family can't help themselves, but they also have the right to choose happiness, why should they be used as political bargaining chips. I don't want, don't want, and don't bother to ruin the princess's life for political purposes."

Long Feiyu's explanation made the nine princesses look bright and agreed, and Li Yuan, who was originally furious, also calmed down.Li Shimin nodded silently, how confident and proud he is, he doesn't want to lay hands on anyone.In exchange for my hypocritical achievements, how many such honest people can exist in the entire Tang Dynasty? Even Wei Zheng, who is known as a defender of Taoism, is seeking alliances from Shandong soldiers, but Long Feiyu dismisses everything, such a great pride , so that Li Shimin, father and son, and Empress Changsun were all moved by it.
