Chapter 668: One Bad Move
If you don't know Li Chao's identity, it will be difficult for anyone who meets Li Chao for the first time to believe that he is the most important person in Datang. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
This young man, who was only twenty-five years old, was more elegant when he put on the moon-white robe, and he was more like the son of a family, and he did not have any external power.
Li Chao is not the kind of old Xiangguo who always has to act like a prime minister in every move, nor is he a martial arts general with strong muscles and a rough voice.
He looked more like a handsome scholar, a beautiful boy with a white face and a groomed beard.
He was just twenty-five years old, but he looked two or three years younger. Black hair, two sword eyebrows are thick and black, and he is six feet tall, this height already looks very tall, but he is only tall, but not burly, his body is strong and well-proportioned, but he is not as strong as a tiger's back.
It is hard to imagine that such a young man like a scholar would be the central minister of the Tang Empire, one of the eight phases, or the thirty-sixth feudal assassin.
With the strength of one person, he stabilized the relationship with Tuyuhun and the Turks.
Without Li Chao, maybe in the fifth year of Wude, the current emperor would be defeated and killed in the head of Longxi City, and maybe the Turkic and Tuyuhun invasion in the fifth year of Wude would not have ended so easily.
In one year, Li Chao went from a fifth-rank subordinate official of the East Palace, to a fourth-rank assassin, and then to a third-rank governor. Not to mention, the changes in Xuanwumen that shocked the world in the six years of Wude, he was the chief strategist.
With high merit, and from Long Yuan Zuo Xun, Li Chao became the prime minister at a young age, and his official residence was a good one.
People all over the world envy Li Chao's current fame and status, but in fact, Li Chao really didn't pay much attention to these. If he could, he would be willing to resign from these official positions and be a leisurely and idle grandfather, but this idea is too difficult to realize.
"General!"
Li Chengqian shouted and jumped the horse in excitedly.
Serial horses, double horses.
Li Chao scratched his head, he was a little distracted just now, and he lost if he was not careful.
But losing is losing, Li Chao simply admitted defeat.
Playing chess is the same as fighting, if you are distracted and you are careless, if you make a wrong move, you may make a wrong move and lose in the end.
"Well, chess has improved a lot!"
Li Chao praised.
"For the first time, I finally beat the teacher!" Cheng Qian was proud, every time he played chess with the teacher, he tried his best, but in the end he lost. The most irritating thing is that when he plays chess with the teacher, every time he makes you feel that you can beat him this time, and then every time the result is that after trying your best, you lose the chess by one move.
The Laiheng brothers turned their heads and glanced at the chessboard, then the corners of their mouths raised, and they turned back to read the book.
The brothers who came to the house were a head taller than the prince Chengqian, and the brothers who were teenagers were in the stage of development, and they began to change their voices, and there was even some fluff on their mouths, and the brothers became more introverted.
The brothers who were born in Jiangmen, because they lost their father at a young age, and the difficult experience outside these years made them not learn martial arts, but devoted themselves to learning literature, and even their personalities were more introverted.
They were found by Qin Qiong, adopted as their adopted sons, and later sent to Li Chao to study. At first, the brothers were more withdrawn and didn't communicate much with Li Chao, but slowly, now they are much more normal.
But these brothers really love to read, and they are reading all the time.
Li Chao was originally their brother-in-law, but they usually called Teacher Li Chao, shouting and shouting, and Li Chao is used to it now. It is said that the eldest brother is like a father, and he has actually been almost playing the role of their father.
Li Chao is the god of war praised by the world, but these two generals are dedicated to learning literature, even if they are under the disciple of the god of war, they are not interested in the art of war and strategy.
"The two senior brothers are too nerd."
Cheng Qian often commented on his two senior brothers, when it comes to reading, although Cheng Qian is also smart, his grades are not good for them. "I only know how to read all day long, and I have to be both civil and military, I won't be like them, I want to be a teacher like a person in the future, and I can be civil and martial...."
"One more plate!"
Cheng Qian finally won a game today and wanted to take advantage of the victory to chase down.
"That's all for today!"
Li Chao refused with a smile, playing chess with Cheng Qian is not just a simple entertainment, but also a kind of education. Teach him the big picture, calculations, etc.
But Li Chao really doesn't have time to go down today, Li Shimin is coming.
Li Shimin also took the route that Li Chao originally came to Shannan, went out of Lantian Pass to pass Wuguan, and then went down the Danjiang River into the Han River, and then sailed directly to Xiangyang on the Han River.
"Cui Yan!"
Qiang Qiang sounded, "The end will be!" Cui Yan stepped forward.
Li Chao's eldest brother, Cui Shanfu's adulterous son, had no status in the Cui family before, but the dignified Cui family joined the army and worked hard to become a brigade commander. Since meeting Li Chao, his life has also changed greatly.
Today, he is the founding earl of the People's Republic of China, and he is still a general of the fifth grade, especially not Li Chao's art of war.
Li Chao's student and Li Chao's brother-in-law, this identity makes him extremely trusted by Li Chao. And Cui Yan's work has always been very satisfying to Li Chao.
"It's almost time, let me know, and I'm ready to go out of the city to pick up!"
Cui Yan saluted, "Isn't Your Majesty only here tomorrow?" ”
"Well, it is said to the outside world that it will arrive tomorrow, but in fact, His Majesty is not in that team, and His Majesty will arrive today."
Li Shimin is also a person who does not play cards according to routines, he used to lead troops to fight, he liked to charge traps the most, and he also liked to take a few people to run to the enemy to observe the enemy's situation, and did not do risky things.
Now that he is an emperor, he is not much better.
I had to take the prime ministers to Xiangyang first, and then in Shangzhou, I threw down the prime ministers and set off again with the guards.
Cui Yan was a little surprised and asked, "Did you notify Xiangyang City?" ”
"No, just take our thousand people, well, notify the eldest princess too."
"Yes!"
Cui Yan strode away.
Li Chengqian packed up the chess pieces on his seat and asked with a smile, "The father is here, and the master is coming soon." Last time, you told my aunt the truth, and when my aunt came and saw that my aunt was there, you weren't afraid of them fighting? ”
"Do you think your sister will fight with your aunt?"
"Hmm..... Probably not. Shiniang is such a smart woman, if she really wants to fight, she can't beat my aunt. ”
Li Chao smiled and shook his head.
After Cheng Qian broke his underground relationship with Pingyang that day, he did write a long letter to Cui Yingying. In the letter, the matter between Pingyang and Pingyang was spread out. He really didn't plan to keep this matter hidden, but after the letter was sent, he never received a reply.
Li Chao didn't know what kind of attitude and mood Thirteen Niang was now.
However, what should come is always coming, and there is no escaping this. (To be continued.) )
