    The position of the Chief Protector of the Anxi Protectorate can be said to be that of a feudal official, and this time he was leading troops to quell the rebellion.  There will definitely be many soldiers with him. This is a good opportunity to seize military power.  After all, Li Chengqian's reaction was faster than that of Li Tai because he was two years older.

    When Li Tai heard that Li Chengqian recommended Hou Junji, he immediately understood.  But there was nothing he could do if he was anxious, because there was no one in his group who could compete with Hou Junji.  Although his teacher Cen Wenwen was profound in knowledge and strategy, he was a civil servant and could not compete with Hou Junji, who had led troops for many years.  Li Tai now regrets that Mao did not win over several princes who led troops.  The one opposite Cheng Yaojin is very pleasing to the eye!

    "Hou Junji!" Li Er fell into deep thought.

    If you don¡¯t send Cheng Yaojin or Niu Jinda and others, Hou Junji is indeed the best candidate.  Li Jing is old after all, and he was absent from such an important court meeting today because of a leg injury.  Among the middle-aged generals, Hou Junji is the youngest.  Cheng Yaojin was also six or seven years older than him, and the bitter cold in the northwest was not enough for someone without a good figure.  It seems that the future mainstay of the Tang Empire will be Hou Junji.

    "Zhao Houjun is gathering back to Chang'an!"

    The railway from Chang'an to Luoyang has greatly increased the speed of message transmission.  No longer needing the deadly courier, Huangmen Shilang, who delivered the edict, took the train and slept in it before arriving in Luoyang.  Hou Junji, who received the imperial edict, also slept on the train and arrived in Chang'an.  The transportation convenience is almost astonishing.

    The person who came to the train station to greet Hou Junji was actually Prince Li Chengqian.  However, as a son-in-law, coming to greet my father-in-law can be regarded as a fig leaf.  All the dogs in Taiji Palace knew what Li Chengqian had planned.

    "I've been thinking about the expedition to the Western Regions all night. No matter from every aspect, I'm at a disadvantage." Hou Junji's eyes were a little red, and it was obvious that he was not bluffing when he said he had been thinking about it all night.

    "Father-in-law, this matter is related to the future military power. If we can return with a great victory in the Western Region, we will definitely be able to replace Li Jing. You also know that Li Tai is fighting fiercely with Gu now. If we have military power, we will not be afraid of Li Tai's tricks in the future.  What a trick."

    Hou Lian'er is just a concubine of Li Chengqian. This is the first time that Hou Junji calls himself father-in-law from Li Chengqian.  His Majesty the Crown Prince of the Tang Dynasty, when have you ever been so polite?  Vanity has been unprecedentedly satisfied, and the Western Region has to go through mountains of swords and seas of fire.  As long as he comes back victorious, with His Highness the Crown Prince's back, he will be the number one person in the military of the Tang Dynasty.

    The taste of power is so wonderful that Hou Junji can¡¯t wait to get more rights.  As long as he assists the crown prince's son-in-law to ascend the throne, who else will be better than one person and more than ten thousand people in the future?  Who would have thought that a gangster who lived on the streets back then would be able to become a marquis and prime minister now.

    "If you want to win the battle in the Western Regions, Your Highness must help me do two things." Hou Junji calmed down and looked at Li Chengqian and said.

    "Don't say two, I'll give you two hundred." Li Chengqian said eagerly.  In order to seize military power, Li Chengqian was willing to do anything.

    "First, I want to take Zuowuwei to the Western Regions. Although Zuowuwei is not many in number, they are fully equipped with firearms. In terms of combat power, they can be called the best in the Tang Dynasty. If I can take them to the Western Regions, this battle can have six  Chances of winning.¡±

    "Zuo Wuwei? That is controlled by Cheng Yaojing, and he is a direct descendant of Yunhao. If you touch his troops, this matter!" Li Chengqian was a little embarrassed, the famous Cheng Yaojing was not easy to fool.  If he got angry, he would really dare to hit Hou Junji's door with an axe.

    "Cheng Yaojin can be kicked away. The Tubo people have been restless recently. Let him go to Dafeichuan to contain the Tubo people. Also, I want Master Sheng Yan to accompany me on the expedition in place of Cheng Yaojin. Master Sheng Yan will fight with the Duke of Chu.  He has been familiar with the use of firearms for many years. Zuo Wuwei is his old subordinate, and he can get twice the result with half the effort." Hou Junji thought about it all night last night, and he already had a clue.

    "This matter is feasible. There have been frequent intrusions by Tubo soldiers recently. It is not difficult for Cheng Yaojin to lead the Youfu soldiers to watch the Tubo people. But the matter of Master Sheng Yan is a bit difficult. He is Yunhao's die-hard loyalist. Wu Yun  As for Hao, it will be difficult for him to lead troops." Li Chengqian frowned.  Looking at the Tang court, the most difficult person to deal with was none other than Yunhao.

    Yunhao has a special position in the Li family, and his father seems to have a special appointment for him.  Moreover, this guy was as slippery as a loach, and he couldn't handle it at all.  But fortunately, his good brother Li Tai seems to be unable to handle the Duke of Chu of the Tang Dynasty.

    Now that he wants to touch his people, Li Chengqian is really scratching his head.  I don¡¯t know if I can accomplish this with my own energy.

    "Life in this world is nothing but money and power. Yunhao is far away in Dengzhou now, so it is hard to say how much influence he has on Master Sheng Yan. His Highness the Crown Prince deliberately recruited him, so he must be Master Sheng Yan?Acceded to Hou Junji's request.  This time Hou Junji went to the Western Regions, and he would be the pillar of the Tang Dynasty's military in the future.  Let him learn more about the art of war. Li Er knew Hou Junji's background very well. He was just a rogue in the market.  It was indeed difficult for him to face the fierce prairie cavalry.

    "I also want to transfer Zuo Wuwei to follow me to fight on the grassland! I also want to appoint Master Sheng Yan as my deputy general." Hearing Li Er's agreement, Hou Junji immediately hit the snake and followed it with a stick.  Take the opportunity to fulfill another wish!

    "I can't give you many troops this time because the logistics can't keep up. So you can only bring the elite. Zuo Wuwei is equipped with all the firearms and can be called the most powerful soldier in the Tang Dynasty. Since you said it  , then you are the one." As soon as Li said these words, Hou Junji's eyes gleamed with joy.  Unexpectedly, it was so easy to convince His Majesty the Emperor.

    "But you need to go to him to discuss Master Sheng Yan's matter." However, Li Er's next words immediately extinguished Hou Junji's enthusiasm.

    "No!" Hou Junji was smart enough not to get entangled in this matter. You can have what the emperor promised you.  If you insist on something the emperor doesn't agree to, that's suicidal.

    "Go down!" Li Er waved his hand, and Hou Junji walked backwards out of the Tai Chi Hall.

    Hou Junji had a mansion in Chang'an, but he did not go back.  Instead, he went straight to the Prince's East Palace, despite Li Er's subtle reminder.  But Hou Junji is coming too, so there is nothing we can do.  From the moment he married his daughter to Li Chengqian, he was already branded as the Prince of the East Palace.  It is simply impossible to escape in this life.

    Entering the main hall of the Prince's East Palace, you can see Yu Zhining, Kong Yingda, Du Zhenglun and others gathered inside.  Apparently, some kind of meeting was taking place.  As the father-in-law of His Royal Highness, Hou Junji is qualified to participate in such a meeting.

    "So fast? What did your father say?" Li Chengqian's eyes widened and he looked at Hou Junji in disbelief.  In Anxi, a place where the sky is high and the emperor is far away, when Li Ji went there, Li Er warned him for more than two hours.  It took less than an hour for Hou Jun to enter the Tai Chi Palace, but he came out just like that.

    "Your Majesty promised to go to Li Jing and ask for the Sixth Army Mirror."

    "Seriously?" Li Chengqian was overjoyed, and he was still thinking about how to tell Li Er about this matter.

    "But His Majesty said that I have to resolve Master Sheng Yan's matter by myself. This matter requires His Highness the Crown Prince to take action."

    "This is difficult to handle! That Master Sheng Yan is in the academy now, and he doesn't even come out of Lintong. He acts like a retainer of the Yun family. If he wants to go to the Western Regions, I'm afraid the Duke of Chu will have to say something." Kong Yingda said helplessly.  He stroked his beard, they were discussing this matter just now.  Several people discussed it for a long time, but they didn't come up with any ideas.  If he doesn't want to, he can't be forced to kidnap him. After all, he is also a Marquis of the Tang Dynasty.

    "Mr. Chu is far away in Dengzhou, and even a fast horse would take more than a month to travel back and forth. Besides, whether Mr. Chu can agree to borrow someone is still a question." Yu Zhining shook his head and said.

    "Why don't His Highness the Crown Prince come forward and hold a banquet to attract people? We have to try whether it works or not!" Du Zhenglun thought for a moment and said.

    "That's what I mean. His Highness the Crown Prince is going to host a banquet. You might as well agree to some conditions for him. He only wants to be an official for money and power. Money! Although we are not as rich as Yunhao, if he is really willing to take this step  We can leave him alone when traveling to the Western Regions. If he wants an official position!" Hou Junji turned his head and looked at Li Chengqian.

    "I am the prince, the crown prince of the Tang Empire. I cannot accept any official position he wants in the future!" (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
