Li Yuanshan was born in a Longyou family. His father Li Luan inherited the founding Duke of the county. He was granted the Duke of the state in Jin because of his outstanding military achievements. He was the eldest son. After Li Luan died, he inherited the title of the Duke of the Tang Dynasty. Longyou aristocratic family, the largest is Li, the second is Liu, and the third is Yu. Longyou is on the West Road of the great Sui River, 3700 miles away from Shandong road.

Although the imperial examination was the main method of selecting scholars in the Sui Dynasty, it is undeniable that those who were really in power were people of noble family origin. Shangshu, his subordinates, the three provinces and six departments of the Chinese Communist Party, nine out of ten senior officials from the fourth grade or above came from an aristocratic family. In the Sui Dynasty, there were twenty-four governors. Among these powerful frontier officials, only yuan Chongwu, governor of Hebei Province, was born in a poor family.

Although the general of the 16th guard is lower than the governors in grade, the military and government are separated. The governor is a senior official of the second grade, but he has no right to control the soldiers of the 16th guard, and his military power is only the soldiers of the state and county. However, compared with combat effectiveness, county soldiers and war soldiers are by no means the same.

The sixteen guards\' generals are all the people your majesty trusts most, and almost all of them have the Duke xianjue. When the governors of all roads saw these generals, they would salute. The former dynasty was based on rank, while the great Sui Dynasty was based on rank. For example, in the former dynasty, if there were only five grade officials, they should also give big gifts when they met four grade officials. In the great Sui Dynasty, titles were higher than official positions.

None of the twenty-four feudal officials had a higher rank than the county marquis.

Except for the Hufu of the Ministry of war and the emperor\'s will, even the zhengyipin generals of the three provinces of Zhongshu, menxia and Shangshu have no right to mobilize. In addition to the soldiers, the soldiers and horses of the great Sui Dynasty are followed by the soldiers in the territories of the princes. These princes are equivalent to the emperor in their own territory. The soldiers\' equipment and materials are not from the imperial court, but from their own treasuries. The soldiers are the dead armed forces of the princes. They are naturally willing to invest, so the soldiers\' equipment is also excellent.

The imperial court supplies half of the equipment and materials of the county soldiers everywhere, and the local government supplies the other half by itself. However, most of the tax money and grain collected by the local government must be handed over to the Treasury granary, and there is not much left. If there are some greedy officials, there will be no money to equip the county soldiers, so the combat power of the county soldiers is far from that of the war soldiers and gate soldiers.

Sixteen guards, ten of whom are stationed everywhere. The two guards are the capital of the East, and the four guards are stationed in the East, West, North and south of Chang\'an.

Li Yuanshan sits in the northwest of the Sui Dynasty. Although his power is not as good as that of Yang shanchen, governor of Shandong Province, when he sees him, Yang shanchen also wants to speak politely.

Therefore, eunuch Wu Peisheng, who holds a pen in the imperial study, will never dare to be presumptuous in front of Li Yuanshan even if he is favored in the palace. He is a wise man, so he knows a truth. Even if the emperor was kind to him, if he offended Li Yuanshan, the emperor would never stand on his side. If Li Yuanshan killed him angrily, the emperor would order to blame him at most.

Eunuchs in the Sui Dynasty had no real power, and it was useless to be favored.

Especially the governors of all roads and the generals of all guards, these people can\'t be provoked.

In the military camp of Woxian mountain, a pavilion is built under a big locust tree on the hillside. The location of the pavilion is just right. It is built in a raised place on the hillside. On the boulder extending out of the mountain, there is the beauty of exquisite workmanship. Looking from a distance, this place is the nose of the lying immortal in Woxian mountain.

It\'s just this season, but it\'s not suitable to sit in this place.

Just a few years later, Hedong road was the coldest place in the northwest of the great Sui Dynasty. The bulge on the hillside was even colder. In the pavilion, there was nothing to hide. The mountain wind rolled down the hillside cut his face like a knife. It hurt.

Wu Peisheng tightened his heavy cloak and still felt that the cold wind could easily get into his clothes. In this place, he can\'t sit still. If this pavilion is put in summer, it is definitely a good place for summer vacation. But at this time, a long time can freeze people to death.

"My Lord, why did you choose such a good place?"

Wu Peisheng\'s cold snot ran back and forth in the pavilion.

Li Yuanshan sat on the stone bench and looked at Wu Peisheng. He smiled and apologized: "you know, although this place is colder, it has a benefit."

"What good can this place do?"

Wu Peisheng stamped his feet and asked curiously.

"Everyone can see that I\'m here to buy you a drink. But no one can hear what you and I say. I asked my father-in-law to meet here. My father-in-law must have guessed what I have to say. Otherwise... How could my father-in-law be so hot in front of your majesty?"

Li Yuanshan was still wearing the thin imperial dress, but his face did not change. The mountain wind was so huge that Yan Po Shan, the best of the seven tiger generals of the right Xiaowei, did not dare to stay in this place for a long time at this time. Although his kung fu is red and invulnerable, the power of the cold wind is comparable to that of ordinary swords.

Hearing this, Wu Peisheng\'s face changed slightly.

"Tang Gong, this time with the people from Dali temple and the Ministry of war, there is only one idle person in our family..."

Before he finished, he was interrupted by Li Yuanshan.

Li Yuanshan opened the food box in front of him and said with a smile, "father-in-law is not curious. What can I invite father-in-law to eat in this cold place? The wine can be warm, but the dishes can be frozen when served."

"Curious"

Wu Peisheng nodded.

"Just this dish, father-in-law, don\'t think Li is poor."

Li Yuanshan pushed the food box in front of Wu Peisheng. Wu Peisheng bent down and looked, and his eyes widened. There is only one piece of paper in the food box, but it is very special.

"I know your father-in-law is from Jiangdu County, Jianghuai road. A few years ago, I bought a house in Jiangdu City. I wanted to enjoy the scenery of the south of the Yangtze River in my spare time, but I couldn\'t get what I wanted. The house has never been occupied and is about to be abandoned. I\'m stationed in the northwest without your Majesty\'s will. I\'m afraid I won\'t have a chance to run to the water side of Jiangdu. Father-in-law is honest and clean I don\'t accept gold and silver. I don\'t have any relatives at home. It\'s not easy to find a place to provide for the elderly when I leave the palace in the future... "

"No!"

Wu Peisheng quickly refused: "if your majesty knows, our family has ten heads is not enough to cut!"

"Will your majesty know?"

Li Yuanshan smiled and said, "even if your majesty knows, he will pretend not to know. Your majesty has always been soft hearted to the people close to you. Moreover, father-in-law, you can rest assured that I have nothing to disobey your majesty. Please."

"Really?"

"Really."

Wu Peisheng looked down the mountain. The people in the camp were as big as ants. He smiled and collected the deed, then gave a shivering salute and said, "then we thank Tang Gong for his generosity."

Fang Xie didn\'t know how he got home. He lived in a single courtyard behind Jinyuan square. When he woke up for the second time, he was already lying on his comfortable big bed. When I woke up for the second time, not only was there still a fire burning in my lower abdomen, but also there was a severe pain in my head. My whole body was swollen, even my eyelids didn\'t escape. A pair of originally large eyes were almost sealed and could only open a small gap.

I saw things very vaguely. I had a burning pain in my throat and could hardly make a sound.

He struggled to sit up, only to find that he couldn\'t move at all. There\'s no place without pain. Because the voice is dry, I want to speak, but I only make a dry and hoarse voice.

But he clearly knew that this was his own room, because there was a familiar smell in the room. The smell comes from bathing your waist. She is a woman with a strange fragrance. She smells relaxed and happy. With her in the house, I don\'t know how much sandalwood has been saved.

The fragrance of women is better than sandalwood.

"Where are you?"

It took him a lot of effort to squeeze the two words out of his throat.

"Big shopkeeper, you are awake."

The voice is not bathed in the waist, and she won\'t call herself the big shopkeeper. Although the pain in the head is like cracking, the mind is very clear. Judging from his voice, he was talking to Jinfeng, one of the four charge officials in jinyuanfang casino. Although the name is tacky, Jinfeng is really a real beauty.

Moreover, after a year of hard training, Fang Xie\'s ability to roll dice must not be underestimated. In the past two years, no guest has won her. Of course, this is because there were no dice in the world before the solution.

Jinfeng is a 17-year-old girl with a petite figure. The highlight is her small mouth, which is extremely sexy. This girl is an orphan in Fangu city. Her father is a border army. She was surrounded by coyotes and killed alive during a patrol. There was not even a bone left. Mother fell ill and died within two years.

Jinfeng has a good figure. Although she can\'t compare with Mu\'s small waist, she is also a rare beauty. She has a small family of jasper and looks very pleasing to the eye. Her hands are extremely dexterous, otherwise she would not be one of the four charge officials in Jinyuan square so soon.

It was on the opening day of jinyuanfang that her mother died of illness. Fang Xie accepted her as a Dutch official and carefully trained her. Now she is an indispensable person in jinyuanfang.

"I can\'t see clearly, but I still know you\'re there."

Fang Xie will never blush if he lies. Besides, even if he blushes now, he can\'t see it.

After drinking the water handed over by Jinfeng, Fang Xie felt better in his throat and asked softly, "how did I come back?"

Jin Feng helped Fang Xie lie more comfortable and covered him with a quilt: "It was the border army patrolling the city who found you. You were lying on the street with nothing on. You looked as if you had been beaten. The border army patrolling the city was Li Gandang. He immediately brought you back with someone. The second shopkeeper quickly asked the doctor to show you, but he couldn\'t see how the injury came. General Li came in person just now. You didn\'t wake up. General Li sat down for a while and left, I was specially instructed to take care of you. "

Speaking of this, Jinfeng couldn\'t help crying.

"Who is so dirty and cruel that he beat you like this."

"Er..."

Fang Xie was still confused. He would rather believe that he had been beaten: "I didn\'t see it when it was dark, I was blindfolded, and I fainted. I don\'t know who it was."

"General Li said to conduct a thorough investigation. The border army sent two teams to search the city."

"Nothing... Don\'t worry."

Fang Xie smiled bitterly. Now he also wanted to understand that it was not Du Hongxian who did something to himself. Maybe it was the man in the green shirt who did it. There is no injustice or hatred. Why did he make himself such a virtue? At that time, he felt that the man in green shirt looked at him unusual. Later, in Yunji dog meat shop, he was slightly drunk and lost his vigilance, but the man in green shirt didn\'t look like a villain?

"How can you rest assured, big shopkeeper... Does it hurt?"

Jinfeng wept and looked at Fang Xie\'s swollen face like a pig\'s head and asked painfully.

"Just a few days."

Fang Xie sighed, and then suddenly became aware of one thing. His face changed at the thought of it. Or when she found that his face was different, Jinfeng quickly asked, "what\'s the matter? Does it hurt badly? I\'ll invite the doctor now."

"It\'s not... I just found something wrong."

Fang Xie was in some pain. He hesitated for a while and said, "there is no pain in my whole body. Is it because my body has been so bad that it can\'t be cured? If I can\'t walk for the rest of my life and live by lying in bed, how can I get it?"

"Help me put on my clothes."
