Chapter four hundred and forty-seven: monopoly power

Li Yan closed his eyes and leaned on the bed, with a handkerchief tied on his forehead, his face pale, and even his lips could not be seen with blood. Prince Li Ke's eyes were red and swollen, and he stood in front of the bed with his hands hanging down.

In the room, Li Ze, Zhang Hui, Xue Ping, Tian Lingzi, Qin Zhao, Han Qi, and Gao Lei sat silently.

The room was dead silent.

After a long time, Li Yan finally opened his eyes slowly and his eyes fell on Li Ze.

Li Ze clasped his fists and bowed slightly: "Your Majesty, I..."

"The past is gone, and it's over. There is no need to mention it." Li Yan waved his hand and said, but his voice was extremely low. "General, the queen has a lasting wish. I wonder if the general is willing to take on the responsibility of teaching the prince?"

"I am willing to take on this responsibility thanks to Your Majesty's attention and the Empress's trust." Li Ze turned to Li Ke and looked at Li Ke: "I just don't know if His Royal Highness is willing? First of all, I need to explain that the way I teach students is probably different from other masters."

"Students are willing." Li Ke took a step forward, clasped his fists and bowed to the ground.

Li Ze sat upright on the chair, but received this great gift. This was a ritual for teachers and students. He did not need to avoid it, but had to accept it.

"The prince's appointment as a disciple is a major matter for the country, so it should not be so hasty, but today, I can only make a simple mistake. Please don't care about the general!" Li Yan said: "Ke'er was just enlightened. Since she has learned from the general in the future, no matter how she teaches, it will be the general's business."

"Thank you for your trust," Li Ze said.

"The prince is still young and the general is also in a prosperous state. There are too many places in the Tang Dynasty that need to rely on the general, so I am also preparing to appoint Xue Ping and the prince of the Eastern Palace to Xima. Does the general think it is okay?" Li Yan continued.

Before Li Ze could speak, Xue Ping had already stood up and bowed and said, "I am following the imperial edict."

After saying this, he turned his head and looked at Li Ze.

Li Ze smiled and nodded, "Shi Lang Xue is loyal and has excellent knowledge. It is just right to take this position. It saves me a lot of effort and can fight for your Majesty more and revive the Tang Dynasty."

"Okay, okay!" Li Yan nodded expressionlessly.

"Since that's the case, after all the matters here in Huguan are finished, I will ask the Crown Prince to go with me. It is better to travel thousands of miles than to read thousands of books. This period is the time of a great war. I have more time to have free time. I might as well let the Crown Prince follow me and take a good look. Think about it, I also have time to tell the Crown Prince how to teach me in the future and how to learn His Highness. I wonder what Your Majesty thinks?" Li Ze sat down again and asked.

Li Yan was stunned. Before he could speak, Han Qi stood up suddenly and shouted: "I object."

Li Ze smiled slightly and looked at Han Qi: "I wonder why Han Shuai objected?"

"Although Luzhou is now surrounded, Luzhou still has tens of thousands of enemies, but after hundreds of battles, the general must be in command of the battle. A place where soldiers are fierce and dangerous, is it a place where His Royal Highness can stay? If there is any accident, can the general bear this responsibility?" Han Qiyi said with some advice.

"In my opinion, the enemy of Luzhou is just a native chicken and a tile dog. What's the difficulty of breaking it? Han Shuai looked at them too highly." Li Ze said lightly: "Besides, I have always commanded my subordinates to fight wherever they go, but I never do whatever they fight. There is no need for me to go to the front line to attack arrows and stones and drums to cheer."

"I understand. In this world, I'm afraid the safest place is around the general." Li Yan stopped Han Qi and said, "Since the general said that, let's do it like this!"

"Please allow me to accompany the prince, too." Xue Ping said.

"Shishou Lang Xue is the prince's East Palace to wash horses. Of course, it is OK. However, since Shishou Lang Xue has gone, he cannot be idle. Other things must be done." Li Ze said with a smile.

“This is natural.”

"Your Majesty." After agreeing on this matter, Li Ze turned to Li Yan on the bed and said, "The battle in Luzhou will be resolved at least one month, and at most three months. At that time, Your Majesty can move to Wuwei. I wonder where Your Majesty wants to stay at that time?"

"Has the general not arranged it?" Li Yan was a little surprised.

"Of course we must follow Your Majesty's opinions. However, judging from the current situation in Wuwei, I believe that there are two places where Your Majesty can give priority to it, one is Wuyi and the other is Zhenzhou."

Zhenzhou is the old nest that Li Ze’s son Li Anguo has been running for many years, and Wuyi is Li Ze’s base camp and the headquarters of the current Wuweijie Town. No matter which place, it is the most deeply rooted place in Li Ze’s power.

Li Yan thought for a moment in his mind: "Then let's go in Zhenzhou."

"Okay, after I go down, I will ask Zhenzhou to prepare a different palace for Your Majesty. When the war in Luzhou is over, Your Majesty can go to Zhenzhou to settle down."

Li Yan nodded.

"Your Majesty is in good health and needs to take care of her health. I have summoned Jin Yuan, a famous doctor in Zhenzhou, and others to treat Your Majesty. I am not suspicious of the medical skills of the imperial doctor, but if one person has more ideas and one more thought, perhaps you can restore your health to health as soon as possible. Your Majesty and I have a chat about the world on the lake of the province that day, and I am still vivid in my mind. Zhenzhou also has good water and scenery. I look forward to sailing with Your Majesty again as soon as possible to discuss politics!" Li Ze said.

Li Yan's eyes suddenly lit up, but they dimmed again.

"The general is determined. I am a little tired. Let the general go down to preside over the next matter!"

Hearing this, everyone stood up, bowed to Li Yan, and then left the room one by one.

Everyone changed the room, but Li Ze was sitting in the head.

Li Yan's seemingly casual words handed over all the power of the government to Li Ze. Although in fact, Li Ze is now in charge of the overall situation, there is such a sentence that gave Li Ze an open and upright endorsement, allowing him to take charge of the entire government with justification.

Even if the current court is just a small court that is in a corner, it is not even a small court, because all the people in the court are still in Chang'an and have all been criticized by Zhu Wen. Apart from Xue Ping, there is only one Shi Zhong Tian Lingzi.

Everything has to be rebooted, but this is exactly what Li Ze wants.

There are only two things happening now.

One is the burial of the queen.

The second is the offense and defense of Luzhou.

No matter when the queen's death was considered a major event in the country, but here it was simplified. Li Ze's mother also held a temple for 49 days, but the queen did not even have this treatment. It took less than a cup of tea to discuss the queen's funeral.

Li Ze's excuse is simple and real. It is precisely because of the noble status of the queen that she can only go to Jian's burial now. Only after defeating Zhu Wen and returning to Chang'an can she handle this matter in large quantities.

Everyone present had nothing to say.

Even if they wanted to bury the queen in a grand manner, the current conditions would not allow them at all.

After talking about the first thing, everyone's attention turned to the second thing.

Take Luzhou.

This is the most urgent task, which is related to everyone's future and is related to everyone's interests. Even Han Qi, who was indignant and Gao Lei, who was nervous, had his ears erect at this moment.

"It is not difficult to capture Luzhou now. Mr. Xue did a lot of work before this. Many people in Luzhou have chosen us. In other words, we are in Luzhou now, now we have inner supporters." Li Ze smiled.

"Jie Zhuang, there have been so many things happening in Huguan during this period. There will be no hearing in Luzhou. Moreover, now Zhu Wen has taken Chang'an. His general Cao Huan has led the Tianping Army out of Tongguan and is heading towards Zhaoyi. Xuanwu is mobilizing on a large scale. Next, he will inevitably send troops to Zhaoyi. Rescuing Luzhou has become their top priority. Under such circumstances, it is hard to say whether those who originally promised us will fulfill their promises." Xue Ping said with a face.

Xue Ping's complaints were beyond words. If Li Ze attacked Luzhou as soon as possible, those people might have surrendered, and Luzhou would have been in peace at this time. However, due to the death of Mrs. Wang, Li Ze had been holding troops in Huguan for more than a month, which led to a major change in the world. Can the current situation be compared with that of that day?

"Mr. Xue is too worried." Li Ze said: "As for these days, my people have not been idle. They have already connected the lines that Mr. Xue has delayed, so on in this matter, Mr. Xue can rest assured. As for Zhu Wen's reinforcements, hehe, they are waiting for." Computer terminal::/

"What does Jieshuai mean?" Xue Ping was shocked and asked.

"It's very simple. If we take Luzhou too early, Zhu Wen would not rush to come to rescue him. Instead, he would take good care of Chang'an and Luoyang, and would march forward until everything was ready. At that time, we still had a big battle with them in Luzhou. But now, Zhu Wen has not yet established a firm foothold, so he sent a large army to rescue Luzhou. It seems good, but for us, this is the best opportunity, so what I want is to seize this opportunity. Not only will I take Luzhou, I also have to fight Zhu Wen for three or five years, and I will never dare to look at Luzhou in front of me again." Li Ze sneered.

"You, you..." Xue Ping stood up suddenly and pointed at Li Ze: "It turns out that Jishuai had already planned to station troops in Luzhou, and was he waiting for this moment?"

"Otherwise?" Li Ze glanced at Xue Ping, "Don't Mr. Xue really think that I'm not stationing troops and entering Huguan is just to force the queen to death and intimidate you, so as to monopolize the power and make a ill-gotten plan, right?"

Li Ze suddenly stood up, glared at everyone, and looked at everyone in the room with his head down, then he sneered: "Say something that shouldn't be said. With your current strength, I want to monopolize the power and make bad plans, is it necessary to do this? What do I want to do, what should I do?"

Everyone was panicked and shocked.
