The 254th chapter is still not old (1)
Chapter 254: Shang Wanyuan (I)
When he wrote about Lun Qinling, he thought of an interesting thing. Before Wulu took action against Lun Qinling, he had already made some arrangements. However, Lun Qinling believed that the orphan and widowed mother were easy to bully, and he died of carelessness. So he thought that Pei Yan and Li Xian were accomplices, not the main evil. However, as three ministers in charge of life, Li Xian's deposed Pei Yan was the culprit and wanted to fight against Wu (dream, such a person was actually written as a positive person in history). Did he think that Li Xian, who supported the young Li Dan to come to power, was easy to bully the orphan and widowed mother, and then felt that Wu Zetian could not control him and wanted to defeat Wu again? Without taking action, Wu Zetian killed him. Wu Lu and Wu Zetian also killed many ministers when they were in power, and their achievements were still acceptable. It was really a two-year-old woman who was one east and one west, which led to tens of millions of heroes fighting for their backs, and they were coquettish.
=======
August comes with the fragrance of osmanthus flowers. Several golden osmanthus and silver osmanthus are covered with golden white stars. When the wind is slightly cool, golden rain and silver rain are fluttering, like poetry, like stars, falling leisurely, and the fragrance overflows.
Li Xian personally sent everyone out and whispered: "Everyone, please give me."
"This is my duty." He answered one by one, and then left.
Walking into the house, Fang said, "Your Highness, I always feel that it's not a good thing."
Li Xian was stunned when he heard this, and then the elder brother's love for him in recent years appeared. He lowered his head and said nothing. Or as his mother said, he was not qualified to talk about the word "kindness". After most of the day, he said: "If it succeeds in the future... I will treat my sister-in-law and nephew well."
Fang's heart was a little cold-hearted. Today you have treated your elder brother like this, and you can still treat the female relatives of the East Palace well in the future. But her husband is always aware of the cruelty of politics. She is soft and he is not dead. Tomorrow you can only wait for death, and you are silent. After a long time, she sighed quietly: "Either don't do it, don't regret it if you do it."
Li Xian opened his mouth, but was still ashamed and had no face to say it again, but he did it. So he left the room, called a servant, and said, "You can ride a fast horse immediately and rush to Shenzhou all the time, the faster the better. Leave this letter to Ming Chongyan."
The letter asked Ming Chongyan for money and gave Ming Chongyan an accurate reply. As long as Li Zhi was sick, he would immediately mobilize everyone to give advice and let him return to the capital. This is a high-sounding word, but he is also ready to do so.
In addition, there is money. I asked for a lot of money. I didn’t tell Ming Chongyan the specific purpose, but I clearly stated that at least two thousand golds must be prepared, the more the better. But there is a prerequisite that you cannot delay a day. After receiving the letter, you must immediately send the gold to Chang'an. Of course, I also said that I knew what happened in my heart. If it happened later, it would make you fulfill your wishes and other strong hints.
The servant left on a horse, but Li Xian didn't say anything for a long time. This was really a bow that was pulled out. The arrow had been released and he couldn't take it back even if he wanted to.
...
At the beginning of the dynasty meeting, Li Zhi was very happy and read the good news again. In fact, he sent many people to copy them before. Important officials and the Eastern Palace all sent someone to send a copy. After reading it, the Censor Zheng Tai immediately came out and said, "Your Majesty, I have a copy."
"Come on."
Zheng Tai said: "Your Majesty, I don't think it's a victory. As the news said, the people killed by His Highness the Crown Prince were all Tuyuhun people, and there were very few Tubo soldiers. Tuyuhun was a member of Nuohubo's tribe. When Xue Rengui conquered Qinghai, he did not kill innocent people indiscriminately."
Before he finished speaking, Li Yiyan couldn't help but interrupt: "In the opinion of the Censor Zheng, did His Highness the Crown Prince hear Su Hegui's army claiming to slaughter the city, and then ordered all the soldiers in the city not to resist, hold a book of the Analects of Confucius in his hand, and personally go out of the city to read to Su Hegui what kind of benevolence and righteousness?"
The voice was not loud, and the ministers in front of him all laughed. Wu Zetian originally looked at Li Yiyan and was very disliked. This time, he actually started to laugh behind the curtain.
"..." Zheng Dang was stunned for a while and said again: "As Xianggong Li said, I have something to report. At that time, the enemies in the city had already killed each other, but His Royal Highness was undecided for a long time and delayed several hours before ordering the speech to let the surrender open the door and accept surrender. This move would also hurt Tianhe."
"I understand, you mean that the smoke in the city was filled with smoke and it was hard to distinguish between us. For your harmony," Li Yiyan bit your words very heavily and continued, "Then in order to save the hundreds of Tubo Tuyuhun soldiers who were fighting against the bottom of the situation, we should risk our Tang soldiers to sacrificing the lives of hundreds, or even thousands of people, and take the risk to persuade them to fight?"
Then he shook his head and said, "The people of Tuyuhun and Tubo are small. The people of our Tang Dynasty have a large population, so no one's life is precious, so what's the cheap!"
I don’t know what he said about being cheap, whether it refers to the life of the Tang Dynasty or the life of Zhengtai.
Knowing that Li Yiyan was mocking him, Zheng Tai was speechless.
He could not attack Li Wei even if he captured this point. Being captured and killing was different from being surrendered, such as the small battle in Chiling in Heichi Chang, or a battle in Hongji Bridge. Even if the truth is revealed, the problem would not matter. At most, it would have a slight impact on the prince's reputation of Ren'ai, but it was a means to the enemy, not to his own people. Of course, if he accepted the surrender like Xue Rengui, but learned from Xiang Yu and Bai Qi, he might be attacked by the ministers.
There was no way to speak wherever he stood, Zhang Da'an relieved him and said, "This is all a trivial matter, I am only worried about other things."
This is the real Tang Dynasty meeting. Zheng Tai reported the matter and walked forward with a tooth scepter in his hand. The other ministers were discussing, so there was no need to stand in front of Li Zhi to explain.
"What are you worried about?" This time Li Zhi rubbed his head, and the court split was good for him to take power, but political affairs would be burdened.
"What I am worried about is the military farming, relocating households, and in the future, the military farming will help. The most bulky thing transported to the front is the food and grass. Although the soldiers have not increased, a large number of war horses have been added. With military farming, this crisis can be solved next year. Even if there is no fighting in the future, soldiers will be sent to guard it, and there is no need to worry about the supply of food and grass. But it is okay to use it for military use, but the prince has to enfeoff soldiers and migrate the people. How many families are there? Moreover, the soldiers are not suitable for the high cold Qinghai, how can women, children, young and old survive on it? This is one, and according to the theory of His Royal Highness the Prince, even if the court is willing to consume it with heavy burdens, it will not be a year or two. The court must summon the prince back. Who will send so many soldiers?"
Zhang Daan was a fool here. Although he was the Yongwang Party, the prime minister could not do it too obviously, so he focused on it and said these two points.
Li Zhi waved his hand and said, "It's okay. Honger has already reported this in the good news that this matter will be discussed until next year. When the farming is mature, several cities in Hehuang are connected and there is no worries in the rear, so that the people can be moved. Those who are unwilling will come naturally, but those who are unwilling cannot force them. It is not a battle, but requires complete health. Except for a few people, most people are just not adapted, and after the adaptation period, there will be nothing wrong. As for the report, you have not thought deeply. As for the future, there is still a long-term situation, so there is no need to rush to discuss it."
"yes."
The left-handed captain Li Zheng'an stood up and held the scepter and said, "I have a book to report."
"Come on."
"I think that since the founding of the country, our dynasty has rarely sent so many troops to conquer a barbarian army. Today, we sent out 180,000 troops to attack Qinghai. The treasury was empty. In order to transport and supply, we did not hesitate to delay the farming production in Guanzhong. More than 100,000 families were separated. This is to defeat the Tubo people. They did not have to annihilate the Tubo people, but they also had to completely expel the Tubo people from Tuyuhun and support Li Nuohubo Khan to return to Qinghai. The Crown Prince had the idea of the Crown Prince. Maybe it was right, but it was just a military farm. If the Tubo people could not attack, would it be better?
I will live in a lifetime and watch the Tubo people control Tuyuhun. If it is spread, how do the various Huhus view our Tang Dynasty? Although the battle in Shancheng is gratifying, I think there is no need to be happy and congratulating, but I just wipe out Tuyuhun people, not Tubo people. The imperial court sent troops to target Tubo people, not Tuyuhun people. I think that it is possible to send some large troops while defending, without going to Wuhai, but at least reach Dafeichuan and achieve one or two great victories, which will make other Hufans not underestimate them, and at the same time make a statement."
"Don't be rude, do you want the prince to take risks alone?" Wu Zetian suddenly said behind the curtain. This is never before. In the past, she listened to politics behind the curtain, but most of them didn't say anything. When Li Zhi didn't hear clearly or had any confusion, she whispered to Li Zhi behind the curtain.
She was very satisfied with the current situation. The eldest son was in danger and was gone. She could slowly "clean up the great rivers and mountains", and only defended and attacked as the auxiliary, ensuring that her son's life was worry-free. The unfilial second son would not succeed.
But these Yongwang Party members were so devastated. After Wu Zetian finished drinking, a sharp light flashed in his eyes and had murderous intent.
Pei Yan kept silent, but sneered in his heart that this group of people could not accomplish great things. How to say it? The queen did not mention it, and the emperor was also satisfied. He did not reject the eldest son's succession. Otherwise, the prince would have rebelled several times, but only suppressed him, but did not abolish him. He valued his talents. But in the capital, the emperor was always restless. Now he is in Qinghai. He will fight quickly and decide quickly. If he is defeated, his life will be in danger. The emperor does not want such a result. He will either return with a great victory, the emperor will either abdicate or abdicate, or a father and son showdown, and see who will win to death. This is not what the emperor wants to see.
When his son came to Qinghai, he came up with this solution. How could Li Zhi be unhappy? His life was guaranteed. In this way, he would not be able to achieve success without three or two years. At least in the past three or two years, no one would compete with him for the throne. As for King Yong, he was too young.
The Holy Will hasn't figured it out, and it's not OK to fire at the prince. Li Xian! He has gathered many people, but among the people he gathered, there is a lack of a powerful general. No matter who the winner in this game is the end, it will never be Li Xian's turn.
Li Zhengan gritted his teeth and said, "The Queen of Heaven, I am not satisfied with the Queen of Heaven's evaluation. I just said that I did not ask the prince to go on the battle in person. How could there be any saying that I would be alone and risk my life?"
Hao Chujun couldn't listen anymore and said, "Li Shigui, the queen of the world's words are quite pertinent. There are Lun brothers in Qinghai, and these two are unparalleled heroes. Xue Rengui's defeat has many reasons, but the role of Lun Qinling cannot be ignored. Lun Qinling has returned to Tubo to recruit a large number of troops, and in Qinghai, tens of thousands of Tubo troops have been stationed. This time, it comes with great force and has only a lot of troops than our Tang Dynasty. If we forcefully go out, the victory or defeat will be unpredictable. If we just divide the troops and move lightly, we will be completely wiped out by the Tubo people.
Or, like when he was surrounded by Guo, the prince would not save him or her. Will he be alone and risked? That is, the prince would not rescue him rationally and ruthlessly, and the army he distributed was annihilated, and the troops in Hehuang were empty. How to defend? If Hehuang was lost, he would be defeated, and the prince would explain to the world. The former was alone and the latter would inevitably be held accountable, and the position of the prince could even be abolished. I don’t know much about military affairs, but I can still understand this simple truth. The queen of heaven would still be lighter in his evaluation of you."
This is politics. Hao Chujun and Wu Zetian are mortal enemies, but at this moment, they come to a front and join forces.
In fact, it may not be so far-reaching, but Pei Xingjian visited the door one by one to analyze the situation in Qinghai, so this sentence was very organized.
Li Zhengan didn't know how to answer, and looked at other people, and the others frowned. In fact, he could do some work, but it was a great victory. The prince had a reason to speak. Zhang Da'an whispered and told him not to speak anymore. There was another arrangement, but not many people knew about it.
Li Zhi was no longer happy, and snorted softly, saying, "As a left-leaning clerk, you should speak squarely and not discuss state affairs in private. Tubo has 400,000 Jiaxian, which is better than ***. How could he be a small barbarian?"
As an emperor, it is impossible to say swear words like you, a boy, have bad intentions. This statement is already very heavy.
"Yes," Li Zhengan retreated in panic.
Pei Yan raised his teeth and stood up and said, "I also have a copy."
All the ministers looked at him strangely. Pei Yan was a competent official and not many people were evil to him. But they knew that his relationship with the prince was very bad. They looked at him together and wanted to hear what they said.
"Pei Qing, please report."
"I think the reason for these disputes is caused by the prince's personal expedition. The prince should learn the way of governing the country. There are civil officials in literary affairs and military generals in border affairs. There is no need for the prince to go to the battle. Success is of great luck to the country, but if it fails, the consequences will be unimaginable. The war is dangerous and everything can happen. Now the prince has been to Qinghai for more than a month, and everything has been arranged properly, and he has won a beautiful victory. It is time to come back at this time."
This advice was very helpful to Li Wei. He only went there for a month and won a victory. If he stayed there, he would make a contribution or a crown prince. If he failed, no matter what the result was, it would be unfavorable to the crown prince. If he returned to the capital, it would be the most beneficial to the crown prince.
Wu Zetian's beautiful eyes flashed, and she was very satisfied. Pei Yan would not help her son. It seemed that she had understood her meaning and said again behind the curtain: "Pei Qing's words are also in line with my wishes."
Is mother and son harmonious? By the way, I took this small problem as a ball and kicked it to my husband.
But this makes everyone even less able to understand.
Li Zhi turned his head and looked at his wife, opened his mouth and said nothing, but wisdom still existed. Pei Yan's words were quite praised by him. This is a minister. If his son did something wrong, he would not give advice because his son rejected him. If his son did something right, he would not praise because he rejected him. But his son is very safe now and he doesn't want to recall him.
But this is impossible to say.
