Chapter 657: Li Ke enters Chang'an
The sudden attack of the three thousand desperadoes, according to what the Yu family imagined, dare not say that they would directly destroy the Hu Ben Guard. At least they could cause great losses to the Hu Ben Guard. After all, those desperate guys are not easy to mess with.
As long as these desperate guys cause losses to the Hu Ben Guard, then at this time, the Yu family will integrate the army and come to fight.
But what the Yu family never dreamed of was that three thousand desperate people attacked the Hu Ben Guard for less than half an hour, and then they were killed by the Third Division of the Hu Ben Guard. None of the three thousand desperate people were alive. The Hu Ben Guard's ability to kill was stunned by the secretly observed Dingzhou army.
Then, without the orders from the Yu family, all the Dingzhou troops left the scene on their own. They were frightened by the combat power of the Hu Ben Guard.
The Yu family's Changqing and Yu Changze left the scene without saying anything. At this time, the Hu Ben Guard was cleaning the battlefield. When cleaning the battlefield, the crossbowmen of the Hu Ben Guard were still on guard. Yu Changze and Yu Changqing were also people who led the troops. They knew very well that the combat power of the Hu Ben Guard was no longer comparable to ordinary soldiers.
Apart from Li Shimin's sixteen guards, the ordinary soldiers were really helpless. After hesitating for a moment, Yu Changze and Yu Changqing could only leave bitterly.
....................................
"There is no hope...!"
In Yu Changsheng's study, the three brothers of the Yu family gathered again, and Yu Changqing sat down and sighed.
Then Yu Changze on the side also showed a shocked expression: "Brother, Li You's Hu Ben Guard's combat power is really too strong. I feel that this Hu Ben Guard can almost be compared with His Majesty's Hundred Cavalry.
The three thousand desperate people did not hurt the Hu Ben Guard in the slightest, and were killed directly. It was really terrifying. Our army would not be the one-union enemy of the Hu Ben Guard."
"Ah... it's really so strong?" Yu Changsheng was also panicked: "Then Jing'er is unsaved. We, the Yu family, can no longer touch Li You?"
"It should be like this. Now we are the meat in Li You's mouth. If the other party wants to eat a bite, we can eat it. We really have no way to deal with him again."
After saying that, the second and third brothers of the Yu family sighed together.
Yu Changsheng also became bitter, but when the three Yu family had a headache, suddenly the servants of the Yu family came in. After saying a name to the three Yu family, the three Yu family immediately stood up and said repeatedly to ask for it.
About a cup of tea, a man like a model in the strategist walked in. The three of the Yu family were respectful to the strategist's man, and there was no disdain and arrogance towards Li You and Li Zhi.
A thunder sounded... It started raining over Dingzhou, and cheers sounded throughout Dingzhou City. The people took out all the things that could be collected from their homes to collect water.
In Li You's government office, Li Mingda and Li Zhi were also happy to let everyone take out the pots and jars that could collect water, and happily welcomed the hard-won heavy rain together.
But what Li You would not have thought was that at this moment, Yang Fei, who was far away in Chang'an, felt ache in her heart, as if it was still very painful, and the whole palace was busy for Yang Fei.
Almost all the imperial physicians in the Imperial Hospital were dispatched, but Yang Fei's heart ache still seemed to be unhealed. She followed Yang Fei to make a statement, hoping that her son Li Ke and Li Yan could go back to Chang'an to accompany her for a while.
This statement... was soon seen by Li Shimin. Finally, after repeated consideration, Li Shimin decided to agree to Yang Fei's statement, asking King Li Ke of Wu and King Li Yan of Shu to return to Chang'an to serve his mother's mother for one year.
After seeing this news, Li You was also shocked. Li Ke was actually going back to Chang'an. This is not good news. If Li Ke returns to Chang'an, then Li You will not be able to leave Li Zhi's side for the time being, because Li Ke is not a good person.
Many people know that Li Ke’s blood is noble, but few people know where it is noble. Let me tell you here that Li Ke’s bloodline starts with his grandfather’s generation. His great-grandfather was Li Hu, one of the eight pillar states of the Western Wei Dynasty. His great-grandfather was Yang Jian, the founding emperor of the Sui Dynasty. His great-grandmother and great-grandmother were both the daughters of Dugu Xin, the father-in-law of Duke Wei, one of the eight pillar states of the Western Wei Dynasty. This is why Li Yuan and Yang Guang were cousins. Li Yuan was the nephew of Emperor Wen of Sui Dynasty and Emperor Duke Dugu.
His grandfather was Yang Guang, Emperor Yang of Sui, Li Yuan, the founding emperor of the Tang Dynasty, Li Yuan, the father was the saint of Emperor Taizong of Tang, Li Shimin, and his mother was the princess of the Sui Dynasty, which was later Yang Concubine. His parents Li Shimin and Yang Concubine were originally cousins. There are many speculations about their marriages in history, and political marriages or love between the two no longer matter.
Li Ke alone has the bloodline of the three wealthy families of Yang Sui, Li Tang, and Dugu, and can be said to be the most noble person of blood in Chinese history.
Such a special identity has also attracted much attention since childhood. The talented Li Ke has rarely disappointed. When he was a teenager, Li Ke became a disciple of Fang Xuanling and was taught by famous officials of the Tang Dynasty such as Wei Zheng and Du Ruhui. It can be said that he is proficient in literature and martial arts and outstanding among the princes.
In terms of martial arts such as bow, horse, riding and shooting, Li Ke is a great player. He even forced the Turkic cavalry to retreat by one single hand when he was in the vassal, which made countless people praise him.
Such Li Ke was naturally favored by Emperor Taizong of Tang Li Shimin. Emperor Taizong of Tang often asked him to have dinner together and cared for him very much, which was no different from the father and son of ordinary families. In politics, as the son who Emperor Taizong of Tang believed was most similar to him, Li Ke was named the Prince of Changsha when he was less than one year old, and later served as Prince of Hanzhong, King of Han, King of Shu, and King of Wu.
In fact, when Li Shimin was appointed as the crown prince, he also had the idea of establishing Li Ke as the crown prince.
The reason is nothing special. It is the difference in ability between Li Ke and Li Zhi. In Li Shimin's view, Li Ke is not only both civil and military, but also decisive in his work, but is very likely to continue the prosperous Tang Dynasty he created. In comparison, Li Zhi is more suitable to be a assisting prince.
Fortunately, Changsun Wuji's strong opposition, although Li Ke has noble blood, strong abilities and good character, he still cannot change his concubine's son. Under the imperial power inherited by the eldest son, Li Ke was ultimately "injured reputation and dissatisfaction". With the legitimate son Li Zhi, changing the concubine's son Li Ke is definitely not a move that can be supported by court officials.
But now Changsun Wuji is no longer in Chang'an. If Li Ke returns to Chang'an at this time and wins over the hearts of the people, it is hard to guarantee that he will not be another Li Tai. To be honest, Li You really wants to scold her at this time. Li Shimin always likes to keep trying to death.
He always fantasizes that his son will live together in harmony, but Li Shimin will not think about how tempting his dragon throne is. A little bit of kindness will arouse his son's endless imagination. Sometimes, his heart must be a little cruel.
