Soldiers are coming to the city

As soon as the generals sat down, they were stunned when they heard Li Pojun's words, and then nodded with admiration.

Hou Junji also nodded with a smile in his eyes, also laughed, and said bluntly: "Your Highness is bright, I am ashamed to say it, I was worried that His Highness's position as a supervisor of the army would mistake my military, but now it seems that it is a certain family who spends the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain."

Seeing that Hou Junji was not as unruly as the legend, on the contrary, he was full of heroic chivalry when he spoke, Li Pojun was also happy, and said bluntly: "When it comes to battlefield experience, which of the generals here is not more than me, at this time of national war and crisis survival, I dare not get an axe."

The generals were also polite when they heard this, and the scene was suddenly peaceful, Li Pojun secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, he was still afraid that the people in the army would not be satisfied with him as an uncrowned child to be the general manager, so he specially came to show his attitude, at the moment, it is very necessary, at least the army is united.

In the Liangyi Palace, Li Shimin was writing and reviewing the mountains of notes, when Wang Jingzhong stepped forward and whispered in his ear for a while.

Li Shimin's face was quite serious when he heard this, and then he smiled again, and said with a straight smile: "This kid knows how to measure." After that, he said: "Huang Lao's learning, respect loyalty, take the "Tao Te Ching".

Wang Jingzhong heard that he went to the back bookshelf to find a book, "Tao Te Ching" as a famous Taoist classic, and Li Tang posthumously recognized Lao Tzu Li Er as the ancestor, "Tao Te Ching" is a standing bookshelf.

Li Shimin took the book, flipped through it, his eyes lit up, and he read straight: "Even the pen will cost a lot, and the thick collection will die." Therefore, contentment is not humiliating, and knowing that it will not be destroyed, and it can last for a long time." After reading it, he slapped it, which frightened Wang Jingzhong for a moment, only to hear Li Shimin laugh and say: "Okay, this kid can educate people."

Li Shimin's literary literacy is not low, of course he understands the meaning of the forty-fourth chapter of the "Tao Te Ching" and knows how to interpret it.

If you love fame and fortune too much, you will have to pay more price, and if you accumulate too much wealth, you will inevitably suffer more heavy losses, so if you know how to be satisfied, you will not receive humiliation, and if you know how to stop in moderation, you will not encounter danger, so that you can maintain long-term peace.

Li Pojun's intention to let Li Tai read this chapter of the Tao Te Ching is obvious, which means that Qingque, you should be content, don't be greedy too much, stop in moderation, so that you can go on for a long time, if you don't know how to restrain again, it will be dangerous.

Li Shimin held the "Tao Te Ching" in his hand, nodded slightly, and couldn't hide the smile in his eyes, "There is the amount of tolerance for people, and the way of knowing the teachings is very good...... Hehe, it doesn't seem possible". Li Shimin also shook his head and smiled when he thought of Li Tai's appearance.

As a father, he likes Li Tai's chubby son very much, but as a ruler, he knows very well that in terms of ability, Li Tai will never be able to catch up with Li Pojun.

And Li Pojun's meaning, Li Shimin also understood, as said in the Tao Te Ching, contentment is not humiliating, knowing that it will not be destroyed, and it can last for a long time. As long as Li Tai is honest, Li Pojun can still make him a rich and noble prince, Li Pojun made it clear to Li Tai, Li Shimin really hopes that Li Tai can wake up.

At the same time, Li Shimin was even more ruthless to the person who instigated him behind him.

Looking at Li Tai angrily returned to Yiqiu Palace, just entered the palace gate, he saw those single parallel bars equipment in the open space next to the door, which were not installed, but were piled up indiscriminately, and saw these Li Tai was angry in his heart, he was thinking that he could snatch the eldest brother's things a few days ago, and he was very happy in his heart, but now he was trained by Li Pojun, and he couldn't help but get angry, and shouted: "Come on, take these things away and throw them away."

Entering the hall, as soon as he sat down, Li Tai drank several cups of sweet fruit wine, as if he remembered something, and shouted: "Bring me the Tao Te Ching."

Seeing Li Tai's unhappy face, the palace maid was frightened, so she hurriedly took the Tao Te Ching and sent it up.

Li Tai took it and looked at it, and then his face turned red, contented and humiliated, and he knew that he would not die...... Contentment?

Li Tai's little temperament suddenly couldn't stand it, and threw the book in his hand to the ground, wanting to scold it angrily, but he didn't seem to dare, so he had to sulk.

Li Tai was sulking here, but Li Pojun was a little uneasy.

Time back to an hour ago, in the big tent of the Chinese army, Li Pojun was watching obediently on the side, Hou Junji and other generals were dividing the defense area around a Chang'an city map, arranging defense, at this time, only heard a few hurried footsteps coming from afar, Li Pojun was puzzled who dared to ride a horse in the camp, Hou Junji raised his head fiercely, and said in a deep voice: "Emergency military report."

Sure enough, when the words fell, the sound of the horse's hooves stopped outside the tent, and a knight turned over and dismounted into the tent, and said straightly: "The chief manager, the deputy chief manager, the Turkic soldiers and horses have passed through Liquan, and now they are stationed north of the bridge."

The generals were shocked when they heard this, and Li Pojun was also discolored, he didn't need to look at the map, where was the bridge? I believe that as long as people who live in Chang'an know that the bridge is located on the Weishui in the northwest of Chang'an, only a few miles away from the Guanghua Gate of the north gate of Chang'an, and the bridge can look at Chang'an City, and Chang'an City can also look at the north of Weishui.

It was only reported this morning that the Turks had just left Jingyang, and now they were under the city, and the Turkic cavalry was really fast.

Hou Junji's face was also gloomy, and he shouted: "All the generals will quickly go to the city to set up defenses to strictly prevent the Turks from attacking the city tonight." The generals also responded solemnly, with a heavy face on everyone's faces, after all, the Turks are fifteen cavalry, and Chang'an soldiers are only 60,000, the difference is really huge, the only thing that can make them die in confidence is that Chang'an City is strong and thick, and the divisions of the kings of Qin from all over the country also dare to come.

"Boss, you and I will enter the palace now." Hou Junji said undoubtedly, and Li Pojun also nodded when he heard this.

The two of them hurried up and went straight to the Liangyi Palace.

Li Shimin was still reviewing the endless recitals, and when he heard Li Pojun and Hou Junji coming together, his face was also heavy, as if he had expected something.

After the two entered the hall to greet each other, before they could speak, Li Shimin guessed and asked, "The Turks have come to the city?" ”

Hou Junji was not surprised when he heard this, and said bluntly: "The Turkic Chen soldiers are 150,000 in the north of Weishui, and the ministers have arranged the defense of Chang'an."

Li Shimin nodded with a gloomy face, did not speak, and after a while, it seemed that he had made some decision, and waved his hand and said, "Pass the public to discuss the matter quickly."
