Chapter 550 Strange Face
Wang Yuan didn't hesitate much, and said, "What do you want to do?"
"Instigate Great Tang to fight against other countries, transfer Chang'an's troops, learn from the Xuanwu Sect, and force Li Tai to take the position." Cui Lingdao said.
Wang Yuan was stunned, and exclaimed: "You want to take advantage of the war between the imperial court and the grassland to mutiny? As far as I know, Li Shimin did plan to send troops to pacify the grassland during the civil war in the grassland, but he wanted to use this to empty Chang'an's troops. Isn't that unrealistic?"
To fight against the grasslands, the most important thing is cavalry. Because most of them are infantry, Datang will definitely bring some infantry, but it is certainly impossible to have too many, so it is simply unrealistic to empty Chang'an's troops.
"No, this time the grassland war, the old man has no intention of causing trouble behind the scenes, and must let Datang win." Cui Lingdao shook his head and said.
Wang Yuan was a little puzzled and said: "The current prestige of Datang has made the Quartet afraid. If we take advantage of the grassland's victory, who in the surrounding countries will dare to tease Datang's tiger's whiskers?"
Cui Lingdao smiled lightly and said, "Brother Wang, did you forget how the Sui Dynasty fell?"
"You mean Goguryeo?"
Cui Lingdao nodded with a smile.
"Li Shimin has been keeping our aristocratic family at bay, and the most important things are to discuss with his confidantes. If you want to secretly provide information to Goguryeo like when the Sui Dynasty and Goguryeo were at war, it may be impossible. Most importantly, With the lessons learned from the three conquests of Goguryeo in the Sui Dynasty, would Li Shimin launch troops against Goguryeo?"
Wang Yuan's words revealed a shocking secret.
When the Sui Dynasty conquered Goguryeo for the first time, it was very powerful. After all, Yang Jian left a very rich family background. Even though Yang Guang squandered a lot at that time, why did he lose so badly?
In addition to those well-known factors, there are also many unknown factors.
The reason why Yang Guang lost so badly was not only that the aristocratic family secretly tripped him, but more importantly, the Cui family secretly passed a lot of information about the Sui army to Goguryeo.
The Li family where Li Shimin lives also knows about this.
But he couldn't say that, after all, the Li family's world was robbed of the Yang family's.
In order to show that the Li family is upholding the destiny, it is natural to try their best to discredit Yang Guang.
If this matter gets out, wouldn't it be tantamount to helping Yang Guang clean up his crimes?
On top of that, the Li family's role in it is not honourable.
This is also one of the reasons why Li Shimin has been suppressing the family.
Cui Lingdao said confidently: "The old man has studied Li Shimin carefully. In fact, Li Shimin and Yang Guang are very similar. They are the kind of people who will do whatever it takes to achieve their goals. It's just that compared to Yang Guang, he has more restraint."
"What Yang Guang didn't do, do you think he will do it? What's more, if Datang pacifies the grassland, will Goguryeo not be afraid? According to the information I got, someone in Goguryeo has secretly contacted neighboring countries. However, those countries are afraid of Datang, so they haven’t agreed yet. If Datang pacifies the grasslands, everyone around Datang will be in danger, so they agreed to the alliance of Goguryeo.”
"Gaoguryeo is the same as the Tang Dynasty. The city is built high. Once it is fought, it will need to use a lot of troops. With Li Shimin's character, he will even go to the imperial conquest. With the number of our private soldiers at that time, great things can be achieved."
"How many other companies? Which other companies participated?" Wang Yuan asked.
The more people who participate, the greater the chance of success, so Wang Yuan naturally hopes to make an appointment with as many people as possible.
"Brother Wang is the first one I contacted. But it's not important, the five surnames and seven hope to fight against the royal family. We failed, and they will end well. Do you think they will refuse?" Cui Ling said indifferently Said.
Wang Yuan nodded. If it was him, he would agree if he saw a higher chance of success.
"Okay, I agree, I hope you agree to this old man, don't break your promise." Wang Yuan carefully considered Cui Lingdao's words, and felt that there was a great chance of success, so he finally decided to give it a try.
The main reason is Li Shimin's attitude towards the aristocratic family, so he has to fight, otherwise, with the cautious character of the aristocratic family, he would not agree to any risk.
……
Chang'an, Qin Tianjian
It has been a few days since Yuan Tiangang took office in Qin Tianjian. Except for the first day when he followed Li Chunfeng to visit Qin Tianjian, he spent the rest of the time reading books in his room.
However, Qin Tianjian is already idle, so there is no such thing as negligence of duty.
Li Chunfeng walked into the room and saw that Yuan Tiangang was still reading, so he finally held back his curiosity and asked, "Yuan Daoyou, since you met His Majesty the other day, you have been absent-minded. You have been flipping through ancient books for the past few days. What happened?"
Later generations have many opinions about the relationship between Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng. Some say that Li Chunfeng is Yuan Tiangang's apprentice, and some say that the two are close friends.
In fact, the two are not in a master-student relationship, nor can they be regarded as close friends, at least not now.
Li Chunfeng only met Yuan Tiangang once.
Therefore, after meeting Li Shimin that day, Li Chunfeng noticed that Yuan Tiangang was a little strange, so he was embarrassed to ask more questions.
But Yuan Tiangang has been like this for the past few days, and he can't help it.
Yuan Tiangang put down the book when he heard the words, hesitated for a while, and said, "Li Daoyou, I wonder if you can trust faces?"
Li Chunfeng pondered for a while, and said: "I believe it, or I don't believe it."
The letter he said meant that he believed that a person could be judged by his appearance.
As the saying goes, phases are born from the heart, that's what it means.
The unbelief he said meant that he didn't believe that one could see a person's future through his face.
Li Chunfeng's answer was a bit ambiguous, but Yuan Tiangang understood what he meant.
Yuan Tiangang nodded and said: "It's normal for Li Daoyou to say this, but Pindao has studied physiognomy for many years. Although he can't clearly see a person's future, he can vaguely see the general idea. Other people's faces are fine. Only the face of the Marquis of Jingyang County made Pindao somewhat question his research on physiognomy over the years."
"Oh? I wonder what's so strange about the countenance of Jingyang County Marquis?" Li Chunfeng asked.
Although he didn't quite believe it, he didn't completely deny physiognomy.
Yuan Tiangang pondered for a while, stopped his words, and said: "Judging from the appearance of the Marquis of Jingyang County, this person died young. According to his appearance, he should not live past the age of 15."
"As far as I know, Hou of Jingyang County is 17 years old." Li Chunfeng said.
In ancient times, when calculating age, one year was counted at birth, and one year was added every year.
Although Lin Xuan is not yet sixteen years old, according to ancient calculations, he is already 17 years old.
Actually, Lin Xuan is only fifteen years old, and he will be sixteen in a few months.
But no matter how you calculate it, it is more than the 15 years old Yuan Tiangang said.
Yuan Tiangang nodded, and said: "This is the strange thing. The face of the Marquis of Jingyang County looks like he died young, but when you look closely, he looks like he lived a long life. Pindao has never seen such a strange face."
If Lin Xuan's face was only the appearance of an early death, Yuan Tiangang would not dare to be surprised.
After all, he has seen so many people, but he has never seen any kind of face.
But Lin Xuan's face that seemed to die young and live a long life made him very surprised.
