When Li Shimin heard that Qin Qiong was sick at home, he didn't know what to do for a while. So he opened his mouth and asked Xu Maogong: "Now that Brother Qin is in poor health, I don't know who can replace Brother Qin in charge." ”

"Now that the Shuai Yin is still in the hands of the Protector of the Kingdom, I am afraid it will not be so easy for him to hand over the Shuai Yin. Once he knew that Dongliao Gai Suwen was speaking wildly, he would definitely not care about the safety of his body, and resolutely led the troops to take command. Xu Maogong said to Li Shimin.

"Your Majesty, my lieutenant Chi Gong is confident that he has the ability to lead the troops in command, as long as the emperor can be trusted, this minister of the Eastern Liao Kingdom will fight for the emperor." At this time, Wei Chigong came out of class and said to Li Shimin.

"Your Majesty, there is Captain Chi Jingde personally commanding the troops, and the minister thinks it is also a good choice. What the emperor should do now is to appease the protector and take back the golden seal of the twisted lion. Xu Maogong said to Li Shimin.

As soon as Xu Maogong's words fell, Wei Zheng and others came out one after another, saying that Wei Chi Jingde had the ability to command the troops. But at this time, Li Tai kept his head down and kept silent.

Li Tai's performance was seen by Li Shimin, so he opened his mouth and asked Li Tai, "I don't know what you think about this matter." ”

"Father can rest assured, in another month or two, the railway from Mozhou City to Chang'an City will be laid. Subsequently, the next step will be to start laying the railway from Chang'an to Luoyang. Li Tai saluted Li Shimin and said.

"Did I ask you about the laying of the railway? What I asked you is, with your Uncle Chi in command, can you take Gai Suwen of the Eastern Liao Kingdom. What are you talking about there with me? Li Shimin said angrily to Li Tai.

"Father, as the saying goes, if you are not in your position, you will not seek your government. These matters should be handled by the secretary of the military department and the generals. Erchen is just a secretary of the Ministry of Transportation, and of course he is in charge of the problem of railway laying. Li Tai lowered his head and said to Li Shimin.

"You kid is hard-hearted, and you don't want to participate in this crusade." Li Shimin pointed at Li Tai and asked.

"Father, last time my father drove his own expedition to sweep the north, but his sons contributed money and efforts. The ministers took out hundreds of thousands of stones. In the end, regardless of the danger, he commanded the troops to rescue Muyang City. ”

But the final result was that Erchen returned to Chang'an in a wooden cage prisoner car. He didn't want to suffer that sin anymore. Li Tai's head shook like a rattle.

Seeing Li Tai's appearance of a dead pig who was not afraid of boiling water, he said that he was unwilling to contribute. Li Shimin said helplessly to Xu Maogong: "Military advisor, wait a minute, you and Brother Yuchi will accompany me to the Protector's Mansion." ”

……

Protectorate Mansion.

"Master, the emperor is here." The housekeeper said to Qin Qiong who was lying on the bed.

Although Qin Qiong was infected with wind and cold, it was not a fatal illness. It is estimated that it will be okay to recuperate at home for a while.

But in history, because of this small wind and cold, Qin Qiong was unable to support him when he was crowned in the Golden Palace. He was wounded internally and spat blood from his mouth.

This also became Qin Qiong's last talisman, which made Qin Qiong die on the hospital bed with hatred. Even when his fate was on the verge of death, he did not forget Li Shimin's war across the sea to conquer the east.

Before taking his last breath, he did not forget to tell Qin Huaiyu to command the army and become the second road marshal. Go to Sanjiang Yuehu City to rescue the driver.

However, with Li Tai's explanation, this time Qin Qiong will definitely not do it again, and the matter of raising the crown of the Golden Palace. However, if you want Qin Qiong to recuperate at home, I am afraid that it will never be possible.

Hearing that his housekeeper said that Li Shimin was coming, he hurriedly dragged his sick body and wanted to get up to greet him. But at this time, Li Shimin took Xu Maogong and Wei Chigong. has already walked into Qin Qiong's ward.

"Brother Qin, don't move, now that you are in poor health, I will give Brother Qin a waiver." Li Shimin hurriedly took two steps forward, stretched out his hand to support Qin Qiong and said.

"Please also ask the emperor to forgive the sin, the minister can't get up to meet him." Qin Qiong was on the bed and said after hugging his fist to Li Shimin.

"In the past few days, I have been in the Huaqing Palace in Mozhou City, and I don't know that Brother Qin is infected with the cold. Otherwise, I would have come to visit Brother Qin a long time ago. Li Shimin said with concern to Qin Qiong.

"The emperor can rest assured that the imperial doctor has already come to see the illness of the minister. It is said that the minister is just occasionally infected with wind and cold, and the body will be cured after taking a few doses of medicine. Qin Qiong said to Li Shimin.

"Second Brother Qin, we will accompany the emperor today, first, to visit the sick, and secondly, there is one more matter, I want to discuss with Second Brother Qin." Xu Maogong said to Qin Qiong with a smile on his face.

"Whatever the military advisor says, you can just give you a direct command if there is anything. Where is there anything to discuss. I am the emperor's courtier, so naturally I can't go against the emperor's will. Qin Qiong said.

"Just today, the envoys of the Buqi Kingdom came to the capital to pay tribute. It's a pity that the tribute is ......" Then Xu Maogong told Qin Qiong what happened.

"It seems that the emperor is preparing to cross the sea to conquer the east, but unfortunately the minister is in poor health, and it is difficult to lead the troops for the emperor anymore." Qin Qiong said to Li Shimin with a sigh.

Li Shimin and the three of them didn't expect that Qin Qiong would take the initiative to give up Shuai Yin. This made Li Shimin breathe a sigh of relief, after all, this would not chill Qin Qiong's heart.

"Brother Qin Wang, do you think that Brother Wei Chi Wang is in command of the army, I don't know if it is feasible." Li Shimin asked Qin Qiong.

"Your Majesty, the minister has a more suitable candidate. It's definitely more suitable than Wei Chi Jingde. Qin Qiong said to Li Shimin.

"Second Brother Qin, you are not authentic, this Wenchen and military generals of the Manchu Dynasty, except for you Second Brother Qin, my Wei Chi Jingde dare not compare. Other people really don't have that, and they can put it in the eyes of my Wei Chi Jingde. Wei Chigong said to Qin Qiong.

"Jingde, why are you so excited, when I tell this person, I will make sure that you are convinced." After Qin Qiong shook his head, he said to Yu Chigong with a smile.

"Second Brother Qin is talking about King Wei." Xu Maogong, who was on the side, had already guessed who Qin Qiong was talking about.

"The military advisor is right, if the king of Wei can command the army. Gai Suwen of the Eastern Liao Kingdom is probably not to be feared. Qin Qiong nodded and said.

"Hehe, I thought it was who. To say that Li Tai's kid is eccentric, the martial arts in his hands are also very good. I, Wei Chi Jingde, really don't dare to say that I am better than him. Wei Chigong said with a smile.

Now Li Tai is in the hearts of Qin Qiong, Wei Chigong and other generals. That is absolutely irreplaceable.

With the last sweep of the north, Li Tai's command ability and force value were brought into full play. Plus he has an elusive beast army in his hands.

It made these generals even more impressed, and they were convinced. So after learning that the person Qin Qiong said was Li Tai, the king of Wei, Yu Chigong naturally showed an embarrassed expression.

"I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint Brother Qin Wang this time, just now in the Jinluan Palace, that kid has already made a clear statement. I didn't want to say anything, and I contributed to this cross-sea expedition to the east. Li Shimin said helplessly to Qin Qiong.

"Second Brother Qin, Li Tai's kid still holds a grudge against the last time he did the wooden cage prisoner car. I didn't care about anything this time. Even food and grass supplies may not be provided. Wei Chigong said helplessly.
