Northern Dynasties Imperial Industry

After sending Li Mu away, Li Tai had no human connections in Beijing. The carpet mats at his cousins' houses were almost torn apart by him. As for most of the other people, they were avoiding him at the moment, and he didn't bother to move closer to make them feel uncomfortable.

Therefore, as a newly social orphan, Li Tai could only go to the home of his new boss and father-in-law, Dugu Xin, to respond and take orders.

Unlike Li Tai, who was neglected in the world of love, Dugu Xin's home is still bustling with visitors recently. One is naturally because Duguxin has a high reputation and many close friends, and the other is that Longbian has an atmosphere of imminent rain, which makes the people of Chang'an feel it.

The Western Wei Dynasty was a regime dominated by warriors. If warriors wanted to show their value, they naturally had to fight. However, since the Battle of Mangshan in the ninth year of Datong, there have been few large-scale wars in the country.

Although there are military parades every year, these military parades are no better than real wars, and the promotion opportunities for generals are also limited. Therefore, when they sensed that there might be an opportunity for a big war in Longbian, many generals who had been idle for a long time came to see Dugu Xin, hoping to get an opportunity.

Although there are some intriguing implications between Daxingtai and Duguxin, they will not be publicized to everyone. Moreover, warriors are not sensitive to political disputes, or short-sighted. As long as they can find an opportunity to make contributions and gain promotion, they will not care too much about anything else.

Seeing Li Tai coming to the door, Duguxin's slaves did not dare to neglect him and directly led him into the central hall.

There were seven or eight guests in the hall, and when they saw Li Tai entering, they all stopped talking to each other. Some of them, who were not as powerful as Li Tai, hurriedly avoided the table and got up.

"When Boshan comes here, he first meets some of his close friends."

Duguxin raised his arm and waved to Li Tai, motioning him to come closer, and then introduced several guests at the banquet to him one by one, and Li Tai also greeted them one by one.

"I had heard about Li Sanqi's name for a long time, and I had seen him in passing, but I didn't have time to stop and take a closer look. Looking at it again today, I have to admire Mr. Hanoi's eye for gold. How can he miss such a handsome young man? I have a general now. The feeling of despair!”

Sitting among the guests of honor was a prince of the Yuan clan. Dugu Xin naturally did not mention his name when he introduced him. There were many clan members of the Yuan clan, so Li Tai was too lazy to think about it in detail. He just smiled and bowed to thank the king for his praise. .

The other guests also complimented Li Taiduo, and their attitude was much warmer and more hospitable than when they met alone outside.

But not everyone was hypocritical and polite. A young military attache in his thirties who stood at the end of the table had been looking at Li Tai seriously since he entered the hall.

When Li Tai looked at him, without waiting for Dugu Xin to introduce him, this person strode into the hall, bowed to Li Tai, and then introduced himself loudly: "A certain He Ruodun, the former governor of Li Tai was appointed I had seen this before when I was in Taifu. At that time, the governor had an attractive demeanor, but his deeds were not extraordinary.

Soon after he left the mansion and transferred to guard the river defense, he didn't expect that within a short period of time, the reputation of the governor-general had already risen in the mansion. Now in this hall, most of the governors have far surpassed the junior generals, which makes people feel that they have wasted their time and feel ashamed! "

For people who have just met, such words are not polite at all. Compliment is not flattery, and modesty is not modesty. It just makes people feel a little confused. Are we familiar? Why are you spouting out everything?

But fortunately, this guy opened his mouth and said his name first, so Li Tai wasn't too surprised after hearing it, but he felt that this big mouth was obviously not a temporary symptom. When I first entered the Taiwanese government, I was just a pretty boy with good looks. Do you need to remind me of this?

"He Ruolang is heart-to-heart, frank and frank, and he is also brave, strong, and courageous. Boshan, you can make him feel ashamed. It is really a great thing."

Dugu Xin was still a little worried that Li Tai was young and energetic and might not be able to stand He Ruoden's unrestrained speech, so he took a step forward and said with a smile, but he soon regretted what he had done by interrupting!

Before Li Tai had time to reply, He Ruodun spoke again: "As Lord Hanoi said, although the general is not a celebrity in the world or an important minister of the country, ordinary people cannot make me sad.

Governor Li is not just a common person with a false reputation, and his deeds are beyond mention. Just performing martial arts in the Baishui Parade last year and capturing Sun Yat-sen in the formation made people admire him endlessly!

The final general only regretted that he could not arrive at that time, otherwise he would have volunteered to follow the governor and fight together. Soldiers are very ferocious, and they are prone to life and death. For example, if the Duke of Zhongshan does not know how to fight, he will only take advantage of it to start trouble first, and rely on this talent to look proud and dominate the young. It is enough for such a vain person to be raised in a household. If you use generals, it will really be..."

"We haven't seen each other for a long time, why is He Ruolang not as good at drinking as he used to be? Or is the wine in my hall not good enough, making you want to talk drunkenly?"

Dugu Xin pulled Li Tai back, raised his hand and pushed He Ruoden back to his seat and sat down. He called the servants to scold him with a haha ​​in his mouth, and ordered that the royal wine given in the ban a few days ago be fetched for the guests to drink. .

Li Tai sat down in the temporary empty seat next to Dugu Xin's banquet, but he couldn't help but look at He Ruoden. Seeing that his expression seemed to be a little unfinished, he couldn't help but sigh. He was such a good person, but why did he have a mouth? This guy hasn't been beaten to death yet, it's really because he's pretty good at beating himself.

Li Tai thought that he was quite hated by others, but after meeting He Ruodun, a professional MT, he finally felt what it meant to be able to hold hatred firmly. People who could be friends with him, regardless of their character and abilities, at least had this kind of self-cultivation. It's a hard indicator.

Li Tai really wanted to challenge himself in this aspect. Although He Ruodun really had a bad mouth, his son was also really sweet. So after sitting down, he also used greetings to inquire about He Ruodun's current family situation, and learned that In the ninth year of his reign, he was dismissed and returned home due to the defeat at Mangshan. Although he was frustrated in officialdom, his family life became harmonious. In the second year, he gave birth to a fat boy, He Ruobi.

When Li Tai heard this, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion. It is better to take a long-term view. The world is so wonderful. Although the Western Wei Dynasty was defeated in the Mangshan battle, it also made Yu Wentai determined to promote the establishment of the military system, which not only created the future The powerful military system that the Sui and Tang empires relied on to start their business was actually packaged with a famous general who made outstanding contributions to ending the troubled times of the Southern and Northern Dynasties!

He Ruodun was not a warrior from Beizhen, nor was he a Luoyang person who followed Xiaowu and moved westward. His father and son did not come from Henan until the third year of Datong. There was no powerful group in the Western Wei Dynasty or the Bafu who could help each other. Therefore, He Ruodun somewhat looked down on some of the North Town warriors who had no real reputation, and applauded Li Tai for slapping Zhao Gui in the face.

During Dugu Xin's eastern expedition to Luoyang, He Ruodun joined the army. He was recognized and recommended by Dugu Xin for his bravery, and Yu Wentai summoned He Ruodun to serve as the commander-in-chief of the Sixth Army.

But He Ruodun has such a personality that even if he is appreciated by a big leader, he can't get along well with his colleagues, and his official career will inevitably have twists and turns. He said before that he had met Li Tai when he first entered the Taiwanese government. In fact, he was flattering himself because he had already been dismissed and returned home to give birth to his son. It was not until the tenth year of the reign of Emperor Tong that the river defense force was insufficient. Yu Wentai felt that he was brave and resumed garrisoning the river defense.

At present, He Ruodun still serves in the Sixth Army. He has the title of Commander-in-Chief but has no specific responsibilities except for the main department. He is basically marginalized and the situation is not very good.

He Ruoden also had a purpose in coming to see Dugu Xin today. A character like his will inevitably offend people in normal times, not to mention being hated by gods and ghosts. Only through his bravery on the battlefield can he gain respect and awe.

However, the Sixth Army has not yet had any specific combat missions, and even if it was afraid, it would not arrange any good combat missions for him, so it thought of its old boss Dugu Xin again, hoping to find some opportunities with Dugu Xin.

Although He Ruoden was mean-mouthed, he was not stupid. During their conversation, he also vaguely sensed that Li Tai was curious about him and valued him, which made him feel happy.

If he had been young and vigorous earlier, he would not have cared too much about this. After all, there were many people who appreciated me, and you are the oldest. But now that he is young and still unlettered, even if he still has arrogance in his heart, he has lost it. Got a discount.

Therefore, he cherishes every possible opportunity. Li Tai is not only Duguxin's new son-in-law, but also the newly promoted second-in-command in Longbian. If he can be recruited into the army, he can get rid of his current situation of being idle and doing nothing. Once you achieve outstanding achievements, your situation will naturally be fundamentally reversed.
