Chapter 501: The first meeting between someone and someone

When Li Shimin saw Li Xian for the first time, he felt a little uneasy and alert. Although the other person had a kind smile on his face, for some reason, Li Shimin always felt that the smile on this person's face was actually a hidden knife, no matter who it was. It seemed that he could be cut by the knife by accident.

He didn't know if this was an illusion, nor did he know if his vigilance was too strong. Seeing his elder brother Li Jiancheng approaching him and holding the man's hand and talking kindly, he felt very uncomfortable. Looking at the man's clean and handsome face, he felt extremely uncomfortable, as if he had a stone blocked, and even his breathing was a little uncomfortable. He couldn't find a reason for why he could not suppress the hostility when he saw that man.

He stared at the man's face with some rudeness. The more he looked at the face with a gentle smile, the more he felt familiar, but when he thought about it carefully, he couldn't remember where this familiarity came from. He had never met the man before, and his understanding of that man had only heard some words of word-of-mouth stories, that's all, so this familiar feeling that suddenly emerged from his heart made Li Shimin a little uncomfortable.

The name that often appears at the meeting of the Li family back to the meeting was mysterious. My father said that when his father was supervising food in Huaiyuan Town, western Liaoning, the man was also in Liaodong. He only brought seventeen people to snatch the body of the old general Mai Tiejian from the hands of the Grand Marshal Yizhi Wende of Goguryeo, and was appreciated by Emperor Daye and recruited into the army and named him a captain. It was precisely because of that battle that the name of the Eighteen Cavalry of Yanyun resounded throughout the northern part of the Sui Dynasty.

Later, Yuwen Shu led the 300,000 most elite group of government soldiers of the Sui Dynasty to attack Pyongyang. Because the soldiers were carrying too much weight, they secretly buried the military rations. In addition, the march was too fast and the army went deeper, resulting in a crushing defeat in Sashui. The generals of each guard were defeated. The 300,000 government soldiers were blocked by the Goguryeo people and almost killed them. But the man brought more than 20,000 remaining soldiers from Liaodong. It is said that more than 50,000 Goguryeo along the way. With this battle alone, none of the generals of Yuwen Shu could compare to.

But it was precisely because of such great contribution that the man's career was ruined. All nine generals were defeated. General Xin Shixiong, the Zuotun Guard, died in battle on the banks of the Sashui River. How could he, a small man from a poor family, make such great contributions?

This was something that the powerful and powerful from the imperial court could not allow, so the man was forced to leave without surprise and finally became a bandit. A loach swam into a pond of koi and wanted to leap over the dragon gate. It was already a good luck not to be bitten to death by those seemingly gentle koi. Li Shimin did not feel shameless and despicable about Yuwen Shu and others doing such a thing. He firmly believed that if he had been his father Li Yuan, or even in Yuwen Shu's position at that time, he would have been afraid that the choice he made would not be different from Yuwen Shu. In addition, Li Shimin also firmly believed that if the man had changed positions with Yuwen Shu, the man would have made such a choice.

Everything is for the benefit of the family, and no one is worth mentioning in front of the interests of the family.

Everyone said that the man was forced to rebel in Liaodong by the Emperor, Yuwen Shu and others, but when Li Shimin first heard this story, he scoffed at such a conclusion. In his opinion, those who could bring more than 20,000 soldiers from Liaodong to the Central Plains in such adversity must have great courage and wisdom. How could a person with great wisdom not guess what situation he would face after doing this?

Li Shimin even suspected that the things in Liaodong were simply planned by that person.

Then, the man went to Yanshan to build Yanyun Village. Li Shimin didn't think too much about this. If he knew that the man had already established a village on Yanshan before going to Liaodong, he would have been more confident in his speculation.

After Yanshan established a camp, the man decisively led his troops south. While the court had not paid attention to rebellion and the Central Plains rebels had not yet become a climate, he led more than 20,000 elite soldiers to capture Juyeze as the foundation. In Li Shimin's opinion, these things were not amazing, they were just doing nothing wrong. He once thought that if it were him, he would probably be more decisive than that person, and would never be as simple as killing a Zhang Jinsheng. When he was in Daishan, he should have taken advantage of Wang Bo's opportunity to surround the Qi County official army and seize Qi County. Why should he wait so much for such trouble?

Later, the story that happened to that person made Li Shimin a little difficult to understand. This man did many earth-shaking things, but he seemed to have no big ambitions. Li Shimin speculated that if he hadn't been worried that so many generals under him would feel uneasy, the man would not even be willing to do it.

why is that?

Li Shimin was puzzled. When power and status are within reach, why does it lose the strong power and status that should have? He knew how strong those people from poor families have for power and status. How many people abandon their wives for their future, and how many people do everything for their future.

Li Shimin once thought that the reason why that man showed such a thing was either he was a truly indifferent to fame and fortune and only raised an army to overthrow the Sui Dynasty, and he did not consider his own future too much. Or he was an idiot, a complete idiot.

But then again, if that person is really an idiot, will the eldest brother Li Jiancheng come out to pick him up?

When Li Shimin thought of this, he heard Li Jiancheng say to the man: "Anzhi, I'll introduce you to me. This is my second brother Shimin, who is one or two years younger than you."

Hearing this sentence, Li Shimin immediately showed a friendly and kind smile to welcome him.

At this moment, his heart suddenly became tight.

He finally figured out why he felt familiar when he looked at the smile of that person. He saw the kind and sincere smile on the corner of his mouth every day!

When he was in the old house in Longxi, in order to make himself look threatening and to please the people of the Li family, he would smile at the bronze mirror every morning, until his face became stiff. After practicing for so many years, he would have a friendly smile that would appear on his face at any time.

The smile on the man's face was like this, very kind, sincere, and friendly. It was even more kind, more sincere, and friendly than his own smile!

This smile reminded him of the past when he smiled at the bronze mirror every day, so in an instant, the hostility that already existed in his heart became stronger.

Because the slender man in black in front of him was very similar to him, and people who were similar to him were all dangerous.

...

...

"This is my second brother Shimin. When he went south, he was far ahead of me and was awarded the title of Duke Qin."

Li Jiancheng took Li Xian's hand and walked to Li Shimin and said, his words made Li Shimin stunned for a moment, thinking in confusion, Duke Qin? When did this happen? In order to save Li Jing's life, he used all his military achievements to pay for Li Jing's life. Yuan Ji was named Duke Qi for his merits in defending Taiyuan, and even Xuanba, who had fallen off his horse and died, was named Duke Zhao. Only his second son, who had made military achievements, was still the marquis conferred by Emperor Yang Guang of the Daye.

But his confusion flashed in a flash, and he immediately stepped forward and smiled and said, "I have seen Brother An Zhi, and I have heard of Brother An Zhi's deeds for a long time. You are the hero in my mind!"

Li Xian looked at the smile on the corner of Li Shimin's mouth and sneered in his heart.

Pretend with me?

The fleeting confusion and hostility towards him in Li Shimin's eyes still failed to escape his eyes. He fled since childhood. The things Li Xian had experienced were much more complicated than Li Shimin. Li Shimin could not even imagine the dangers he had experienced. In his eyes, Li Shimin's very good heart was actually betrayed by his eyes.

"Young Master, you are polite. You can't think of the rude people as well."

Li Shimin hurriedly said: "Heroes don't ask where they come from. In my opinion, the so-called famous generals in the Great Sui army are several streets worse than Brother An!"

"That's so far."

Li Xian laughed and said, "Thank you, the second son, for your praise."

Li Shimin said a few more polite words, then stopped and deliberately left behind because he had just seen Changsun Shunde wink at him, and he knew that Changsun Shunde must have something to say to him.

"Second Young Master"

Changsun Shunde walked to Li Shimin and whispered: "Why were you distracted just now? The prince called you a few times and you didn't hear it. Just as Li Xian arrived, the messenger from Chang'an brought the imperial edict that His Majesty personally used seals to sign you as Duke Qin and the champion general."

"ah?"

Li Shimin shouted softly, as if he was a little disbelief.

"The second young master still doesn't understand what's going on?"

Changsun Shunde asked with a smile.

Li Shimin thought for a while and immediately reacted. He nodded and lowered his voice: "Father doesn't want me to feel that I have a low status in front of Li Xian! I guess, my father knew that Li Xian was coming to Taiyuan, so he immediately asked the little emperor for this decree."

"Li Xian is a little bit unworthy of his name."

When Changsun Shunde saw that Li Shimin understood what Li Yuan meant, he nodded and said, "This person... looks so arrogant. The second young master just now, you praised him like that. He just said a little humble. It seems that he is a person who values ​​false reputation. Such a person does not seem to be worthy of the prince's attention."

"He is from a poor family after all."

Li Shimin whispered.

Changsun Shunde shook his head, but still endured the words in his heart. He really wanted to tell Li Shimin that Li Xian was not from a poor family. If he really revealed the secret, then you will understand why the prince attached so much importance to him. Now in the Li mansion, there are only the King of Tang, the wife, the prince, me, and the auxiliary machine who know the secret. But these five people will never tell the secret until the time comes.

He turned his head and looked at Changsun Wuji, but saw Changsun Wuji looking at Li Xian's back with a little trance.

When Li Shimin heard Li Jiancheng greet him, he hurriedly chased after him. Changsun Shunde and Changsun Wuji came over and asked in a low voice: "Super Ji, what's wrong with you today? You're out of your mind?"

Changsun Wuji was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly and said, "Didn't you see it?"

"What do you see?"

"Li Xian, it looks like the second young master."

"picture?"

Changsun Shunde subconsciously looked forward, shook his head and said, "Why didn't I see it?"

Changsun Wuji sighed and said in a low voice: "I didn't care at first. The second young master and Li Xian are both very beautiful men, handsome and gentle, but Li Xian has a little masculine spirit and a stronger figure. Although they are both handsome and more beautiful than women, their faces, eyebrows and eyes do not have much similarities at first. However, when the second young master and Li Xian were talking just now, I looked at the smiles on their faces and suddenly realized that the smiles were so similar!"

“It’s nothing to be similar.”

Changsun Shunde didn't care about this because it seemed normal to be similar in his opinion.

"after all……"

He didn't say the following words, his eyes flashed.

...

...

"Anzhi, don't be so polite. I'm a few years older than you. If you don't dislike it, you can be like Shimin and others. We are called brothers. The auxiliary machine came back from Dongping County a while ago. It seems that the one who came back from Anzhi is also a flying general, and we are all a family!"

Li Jiancheng said as he walked.

The family tree was fabricated by Du Ruhui. Li Xian was going to be promoted to King of Yan at that time, so how could he not have a pure and innocent identity?

Li Xian smiled and said, "Then I will climb up. Brother Jiancheng, what's the war in Taiyuan now?"

"Let's not talk about this today. I have ordered someone to prepare a banquet to greet you. You can't wait a while later, one of your old friends will come. I invited her several times and refused to come. You are still very proud of your face. I heard that Anzhi has arrived. She has already rushed back from the gate. If nothing unexpected happens, she will definitely arrive today."

Li Xian asked with a smile: "Old friends? Why do I have old friends in Taiyuan?"

"Ha ha!"

Li Jiancheng smiled and said, "You are such a poor memory. My sister has often talked about the taste of the grilled fish you made in the world."

"ah?"

Li Xian pretended to be frightened and said, "The princess is here too?"

Li Shimin took it from the side and said, "Yes, Brother Anzhi, you don't know. Brother Anzhi sent someone to Sister Huining's place several times. She said that she was busy with military affairs and refused to come. This time, Brother Anzhi came. Sister Huining set out overnight and will definitely arrive today."

Li Xian remembered the woman who was as graceful as water when she was quiet and as heroic as a mountain when she was drinking.

Thinking of her, Li Xian's heart suddenly became tight.

She seemed to...it was when she was fighting fiercely with the Turks, she was guarding the pass for several months, but the reinforcements had not arrived alone and fought alone...there was no war.
