Time flew by, three days passed in the blink of an eye.
On this day, Du Ruhui's family packed their bags and left Yongxing City, heading north. Du Ruhui's party left the north city and saw Li Shimin's party on the official road outside the city.
They made a special trip to send Du Ruhui off.
Li Shimin stepped forward and said a lot of words, full of reluctance. After all, Du Ruhui was Li Shimin's right-hand man. With Du Ruhui around, Li Shimin had one more strategist. Without Du Ruhui, there would be less help.
Li Shimin finished his speech and said, "Keming, after you go north, this prince will also set out to crusade against Liu Heita in a few days. This battle will be the battle for the Tang dynasty's throne. After Liu Heita is eliminated, Hebei will be in the hands of the Tang dynasty. The rest of the world is nothing to be afraid of. "
After Guanzhong and Hebei are joined together, it will be the entire north.
With the Tang dynasty occupying the north, the tiger occupying the world will be in sight.
Du Ruhui said seriously, "Your Highness, regarding the battle with Liu Heita, this official has been paying attention to Liu Heita's intelligence. Liu Heita is an extremely shrewd person. He adopted the strategy of forming alliances, making the originally scattered area under Liu Wuzhou's command to be united. The most important thing is that Liu Heita is heroic, this person's fighting strength is very strong. Therefore, in the battle between Your Highness and Liu Heita, you must not be impatient, you must fight steadily and surely. "
Li Shimin said, "This prince understands!"
He and Du Ruhui had known each other for more than ten years, the relationship between both sides was extremely deep.
Li Shimin's gaze turned and fell on Du Qi, saying, "Erlang, do you have anything to say?"
Du Qi thought and said, "Your Highness is a man of great talent and great strategy, a man of great courage and great decisiveness. Originally, this kid has nothing to say. But father mentioned Liu Heita's matter, this kid will add a little. "
Li Shimin said, "Say it!"
In his heart, there was a trace of joy.
Du Qi said he was a man of great talent and great strategy, if these words came from other people's mouth, Li Shimin would not feel anything, even think that the other party was flattering. But when these words came out of Du Qi's mouth, it was different. Du Qi had never lied, nor did he say anything out of politeness.
Du Qi said, "This crusade against Liu Heita is an opportunity for Your Highness. Because once Liu Heita is swept away, then Your Highness' prestige will rise to another level, and you will be able to reach the peak again. "
"However, if this crusade against Liu Heita fails, it will also be extremely dangerous."
"At that time, His Majesty will not give you a chance to avenge your humiliation. As long as Your Highness makes a mistake, it is possible that the Crown Prince and the Prince of Qi will step forward to take over and continue to attack Liu Heita. "
"This is not allowed to happen."
"Therefore, in this battle against Liu Heita, I would rather be slow and steady than have the slightest mistake."
Du Qi said, "Your Highness, that's all I have to say. That's all I have to say. Your Highness, please reconsider. "
After hearing this, Li Shimin nodded and said, "This Prince will remember Erlang's reminder. Speaking of the matter of sending troops to suppress Liu Heita, the entire Prince of Qin's Mansion, from top to bottom, was very excited. They were all excited to go on a crusade against Liu Heita, but no one mentioned the consequences of failure. "
Fang Xuanling, who was standing on the side, opened his mouth and said, "I will remind Your Highness."
Du Qi nodded and did not speak anymore.
Li Shimin and Du Ruhui spoke a few more words, and then no longer spoke.
The group continued their journey.
Du Qi and his family went out of the city and walked less than five miles. Suddenly, they saw on the official road ahead, in a pavilion, there was the sound of zither curling up in spirals, constantly coming from it.
Du Qi looked from the carriage. Although the distance was a bit far, Du Qi could clearly see the distance of dozens of steps. At a glance, he saw the situation in the pavilion. It was Li Xiaogong's family of three.
Li Xiaogong and Wang Shi were standing on the side.
Li Yanyun was playing the zither.
Listening to the sound of the zither, Du Qi also praised. Li Yanyun was young, but her zither skills were excellent.
The carriage continued to move forward.
After a while, they arrived at the pavilion and stopped.
Li Xiaogong and his wife had already come out of the pavilion, leaving Li Yanyun playing the zither in the pavilion. Seeing this, Du Ruhui reminded him, "Erlang, you go. I want to see Prince Zhao and his wife."
"Yes!"
Du Qi got out of the carriage and went to the pavilion.
On the way, he met Li Xiaogong and his wife. Du Qi saluted them with his hands folded and went straight ahead. Not long after, Du Qi arrived at the pavilion, and Li Yanyun just finished playing the zither.
"Brother!"
Li Yanyun stood up and saluted.
Du Qi said, "Sister Yanyun, thank you for coming to see me off today."
Li Yanyun said, "Brother, I didn't come to see you off. This time, I will go north with you. I also want to go to Daizhou. "
"What?"
Du Qi was surprised to hear this.
Li Yanyun also wanted to go to Daizhou.
Li Yanyun smiled sweetly and said, "My brother and I are engaged. What's wrong with me going north to Daizhou with you?" There was a sly look in her big black eyes, as if to say, "Even if you don't want me to go, I will go."
Du Qi came back to his senses and asked, "Does Prince Zhao agree?"
Li Yanyun said, "Of course Father and Mother agree. I stay at home all day and have nothing to do. If I can go north with you, I will have something to do and gain experience. "
After a pause, Li Yanyun said, "Moreover, you are a very talented person. When you reach Daizhou in the north, you will definitely go into business. When the time comes, I will help you. Elder Brother, I'm quite proficient in arithmetic as well. "
"Okay!"
Du Qi answered with a smile.
He finally understood that Li Yanyun wanted to declare her sovereignty and use her rights as the mistress of the house.
But this was not a bad thing.
Li Yanyun said, "Brother, you are also a very talented person. Today, are you willing to play a song?"
Du Qi looked at the guqin on the stone table in the pavilion and said, "Let's give it a try."
This Lord is quite accomplished in the art of the zither. Although I have not reached the peak, I have reached a higher level. In fact, the four arts are the basic skills of a scholar. It is not difficult.
Du Qi played the guqin. After testing the strings, he began to play.
Du Qi's song was "A Male Phoenix Seeking a Female Phoenix".
"A Male Phoenix Seeking a Female Phoenix" is a guqin song from the Han Dynasty. Although it is old-fashioned, it is still a classic. [A Male Phoenix Seeking a Female Phoenix] is the song this Lord is best at. When he plays it, it is as smooth as moving clouds and flowing water, free and easy.
He had the demeanor of a great master.
The most important thing was that Du Qi's mentality was very good, so he played it better.
"A Male Phoenix Seeking a Female Phoenix", where it should be high-pitched, it was as if it was soaring into the sky. Where it should be mellow, it was sentimental and mellow. It was full of the demeanor of a great master.
For Li Yanyun, "A Male Phoenix Seeking a Female Phoenix" had a deeper meaning. Therefore, when Li Yanyun heard it, she was a little shy. She pinched her skirt and her cheeks were blushing.
This song was also transmitted to the official road below.
Li Xiaogong and Du Ruhui were chatting. When they heard "A Male Phoenix Seeking a Female Phoenix", their faces were full of joy. Both Li Xiaogong and Du Ruhui were happy to see it. They all hoped that Du Qi and Li Yanyun's relationship would have a good foundation.
After a long time, the song came to an end.
The sound of the guqin lingered in the air for three days. The sound was endless.
Li Yanyun let out a long sigh and praised, "Elder Brother's zither skill is really extraordinary. Is this the first time you played "A Male Phoenix Seeking a Female Phoenix" to a woman? "
Du Qi chuckled in his heart.
"This little girl is quite scheming."
She was obviously concerned about whether he had played for other women before.
Du Qi said, "This is the first time I've played 'A Male Phoenix Seeking a Female Phoenix' to a woman."
Li Yanyun immediately smiled.
Her smile stretched like a hundred flowers blooming. In that instant, the smile on her face became even more charming. Even though Li Yanyun was still young, she already had the potential to be a heavenly beauty.
Du Qi said, "Since Commandery Prince Zhao agrees to let you go north with us, then come with me."
"Okay!!"
Li Yanyun replied with a smile.
At this moment, Li Yanyun was very happy. It was very interesting to be able to go north with her sweetheart.
