Chapter 2823 You have to take responsibility
Li Tai was somewhat dissatisfied with Li Zhi in his heart, but seeing his younger brother's embarrassment and panic expression at the moment, he still couldn't bear it, so he made a rescue.
In the past, he would not have dared to make such a decision in front of his father. His father did love him, but he was also extremely strict, and he dared not make the slightest mistake in every move.But now that he has long given up his desire to fight for the reserve, he has let go of the burden in front of his father, and he has lost that mentality of worrying about gains and losses, and has become more free and easy, especially after he is determined to expand the educational cause of the Tang Dynasty. The emperor paid more attention to him, and sometimes even asked his opinion...
It's like dragging Li Zhi away on his own initiative right now. He never dared to do that before, but now he not only did it, but his father didn't care about it, and directly allowed it...
Li Zhi naturally heaved a long sigh of relief, and followed Changsun Wuji to the main hall. He might have to face Fang Xuanling's criticism again, which would make him even more embarrassed. Now that he had escaped, he felt happy, so he couldn't help but uttered a big word, but When I turned around and saw Fang Jun who was smiling but not smiling, my heart skipped a beat.
Bad, I said it casually, it seems very imposing, but it is difficult to deal with those son-in-law brothers-in-law with my own drinking capacity, let alone Fang Jun who is not drunk for a thousand cups?
Sure enough, Fang Jun smiled and nodded at him: "His Royal Highness Prince Jin has indeed grown up, and has a manly spirit! Just for your words, I will have to offer a few toasts later, Your Highness is very grateful today. Don't leave the table first, we won't go back until we're drunk!"
Li Zhi's face collapsed immediately.
motherfucker!
How many people in and out of Chang'an city, who heard Fang Jun's arrogant challenge is not a war between two groups?This guy can really drink!
Feeling panicked, he hurriedly said: "What, there are still some things in the palace, or..."
He wanted to hide for a while, but was interrupted by Li Tai who was behind him.
Before Li Zhi could finish his words of confession, Li Tai had already stood in front of Fang Jun with a smile: "What's the matter, look down on our brother's drinking capacity? I, the son of Li Tang's royal family, can go to the battlefield and do a good job. Is it possible to pay him back?" Can you lose your spine on the wine table? Your Fang Er is indeed a good man, but you can pour my brother on the wine table, but you can't take away my brother's momentum with just one mouth! Big deal Getting drunk and making people laugh on the spot, who is afraid of whom?"
Fang Jun looked at Li Tai in amazement, this guy did not know what kind of madness he committed today, defending Li Zhi several times, didn't he agree not to get involved in the fight for the reserve?
"Since His Royal Highness is so proud, let's make an agreement. If you don't get drunk at the banquet at night, you won't return home!"
"Don't get drunk, don't go home!"
"Then please sit in the side hall for a while, Your Highness, and I have to go to the door to welcome guests."
"Erlang will go on his own, your family members are welcome."
Fang Jun nodded, bowed his hands in a salute, took Ma Zhou and Li Daozong to say goodbye, and went to the door to greet the guests.
Li Tai looked at Li Zhi, put his arms around his shoulders and walked towards the side hall. While smiling and nodding at the court officials passing by, he said to Li Zhi: "Sometimes the most important thing for a man It is responsibility. Facing difficulties, we must not only have the means to solve them, but also have the determination to face them. Escape is absolutely not advisable. You may think that you are temporarily avoiding the edge and winning by detours, but once this evasion mentality breeds, You will get used to it in the future. Whenever you encounter difficulties, the first thing that arises is the idea of escaping. As a man, if you evade, then who will face the difficulties? Your brother? Or your woman? Not to mention whether your woman has the courage to face difficulties, even if there is, it will continue to breed her ambition and courage. If things go on like this, how can you still have the courage of the head of the family in front of women? The morning of the rooster is the thread of the home."
Li Zhi kept on stepping, and immediately said dissatisfied: "Brother Qingque, how can you look at me like this? Although I, Li Zhi, am not a hero, I am also a masculine and straight man. Push your own woman to the front? My brother is too contemptuous!"
The side hall was right in front, Li Tai patted Li Zhi on the shoulder, smiled and said, "I'm just a brother, you don't have to be angry as a childish slave. It's just that you remember that as a man, you can't dodge it. You have to face it bravely, if escaping becomes a habit, the root of disaster will be deeply planted.”
While speaking, he had already come to the entrance of the side hall.
Li Zhi entered the gate of the side hall in a daze, but kept thinking about Li Tai's words in his heart. It is possible that Brother Qingque reminded me to pay attention to controlling the power of the palace because of the Taiyuan Wang family, so as not to Taiyuan Wang's pressure on my head?
This is impossible.
Even if my temperament is really more willing to avoid the edge than to face the difficulties, but can Princess Jin face the difficulties directly if she can push it out?
Even if he really pushes his woman out to resolve difficulties, he still needs to find a woman with enough intelligence and courage.
Well, like Miss Wu.
It's a pity, the king gave birth to me before I was born, and the king is already old when I was born. The beautiful woman has long been a famous woman, and my love can only be wasted...
The earth dragon was burning in the side hall, and it was as warm as spring. More than a dozen princes and son-in-laws in beautiful clothes were sitting in a row, drinking tea and talking loudly. The atmosphere was very lively.
When Li Tai and Li Zhi entered the hall one after another, everyone stood up one after another: "I have seen your Highnesses."
Li Tai waved his hands with a smile, walked straight to the vacant first seat, and Li Zhi sat at the bottom of him, facing Qi Wang Li You.
Here are the sons and concubines of His Majesty Li Er, they are all a family, if the crown prince is not here, then Li Tai will be respected.
Li Tai looked around and saw that not only Qi Wang Li You, Shu Wang Li Yun, Jiang Wang Li Yun, etc. were there, but also Wang Jingzhi, Dou Kui, Tang Yizhi, Chai Lingwu, Cheng Chubi, etc. were in Beijing. Quite a few, and asked with a smile: "What did you just say, the atmosphere is so good?"
Chai Lingwu replied: "Isn't this the beginning of spring and the Eastern Expedition? Everyone is discussing how to get a job in the army so that they can go out with the army. Now that the Tang Dynasty has conquered the world, there are only enemy countries around. Goguryeo and Tubo, Tubo is located on a high plateau, and the current situation with the Tang Dynasty is gradually easing, so it is expected that after more than ten years, the only one that can be called a big war is the eastward campaign of Goguryeo. If it cannot be in this war Gaining a few points of military merit will probably be hopeless in this life."
Wang Jing said directly: "Everyone knows that the Eastern Expedition is just a formality. With His Majesty's personal conquest, and there are millions of tigers. Goguryeo's mantis is blocking the car. It will collapse at the touch of a finger, and it will only fall in the palm of your hand. But we, as civil servants, I can only watch your generals charge into battle with His Majesty to gain military exploits, and I am envious!"
Everyone expressed their opinions in a hurry, but generally they were these two views.
Li Tai couldn't help but frown.
When he went to Jiangnan, he often chatted with Fang Jun and talked about the Eastern Expedition more than once.At first, he was as optimistic as most people in the court. He thought that the emperor's father would march in person, and the enemy would be invincible wherever the army went. How could the Goguryeo people resist the Tang Dynasty just by relying on the Wubao mountain city built between the mountains? A million tigers?
The situation of the war must be like a gust of wind sweeping fallen leaves, there is absolutely no suspense.
But after talking with Fang Jun several times, his thoughts have long since disappeared. Fang Jun changed his view with just a very simple reason: Emperor Yang of Sui also thought so...
Before the Sui Dynasty, the gradual prosperity of Goguryeo had already posed a threat to the empire. Therefore, Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty sent troops from all over the country to conquer Goguryeo, not just for his own great cause through the ages, but more to eradicate Goguryeo, a serious problem in his heart. As a result, Mount Tai was overwhelming The offensive is like waves hitting a rock. The mighty water seems to be surging, but it is actually splashing in all directions, but the rock remains motionless.
No one could have imagined that the Sui army would fail, but the result was a crushing defeat.
Hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers of the Sui army died on the frozen soil of Liaodong, and were eaten by birds and beasts under the wind and sun. They were finally collected by the Goguryeo people and built into Jingguan one after another, trampling the dignity of the Han people for thousands of years. At their feet, to show their bravery and invincibility.
How is the current situation similar to that of the past?
The same ambition, the same thunder, the same arrogant soldier.
There has never been a situation where victory is guaranteed in wars. Throughout the ages, there have been countless battles in which the few defeated the masses and the weak defeated the strong. If the Tang army encountered Goguryeo's tenacious sniper attack, it is very likely to cause a series of turbulent changes, resulting in a fluctuating morale of the army. Morale is low.
Thinking of this, Li Tai said solemnly: "Soldiers, the great affairs of the country, the place of life and death. You are all nobles from the heavenly family and the nobles of the dynasty. If you enter the army in the spring, you should also guard against arrogance and impetuosity. Don't underestimate the enemy." heart of."
Chai Lingwu waved his hand, with a disapproving expression on his face: "Your Highness, you are too worried. This time, the Eastern Expedition will be led by His Majesty, and the deputy generals who will accompany you are all famous generals in the world. No matter whether you are arranging troops or charging in battle, Goguryeo, which lives in a corner How can I stop it? Just put in one effort, and you will be victorious.”
It is true that there is no such thing as victory in a war, and any war has the possibility of failure.However, when one side's advantage is enough to crush the opponent more than ten or twenty times, the probability of such failure will infinitely approach zero.
