In the next few days, Li Yuanji tested Du Fuwei's attitude through Gao Yaxian, and kept an eye on Changsun Wuji's movements through Xue Wanshu.
During this period, Li Yuanji also helped the remains of the fallen soldiers of the Second Tongjunfu who held the iron plate of the Tongjunfu and presided over several justices, and together with Li Shimin, Li Xiuning, and Li Shentong presided over this year's Luoyang
The city's 'harvest festival'.
This year's summer grain harvest in Luoyang is pretty good, and it can be considered a bumper harvest.
There are too few people in the Luoyang area, there is not much land for farming, and there are not many wealthy people who can help other places.
As soon as Li Yuanji returned to his hotel after hosting the 'Harvest Festival', Gao Yaxian hurriedly appeared in front of Li Yuanji.
As soon as they met, they curtsied curtly, exchanged a few simple greetings, and then went straight to the topic.
"Your Highness, Li Fuwei has believed His Highness's words, but he has no intention of handing over Wang Xiongdan and others to His Highness. Instead, he sent someone back to Southeast Road.
It seems that someone has been sent to remind Wang Xiongdan."
Gao Yaxian knelt down in front of the ice mirror, feeling the coolness from the cold ice in the ice mirror, and sighed unwillingly.
His words were almost worn out, but Du Fuwei still didn't follow his wishes and hand over Wang Xiongdan and the others. He was really unwilling to do so.
He felt that Du Fuwei sent someone back to the Southeast Road to remind Wang Xiongdan. With Wang Xiongdan watching carefully, there should be no trouble on the Southeast Road.
His plan with Li Yuanji came to nothing.
Li Yuanji lay on his side on the couch not far from the ice mirror, took a sip of cold melon, and sighed.
However, the meaning of Li Yuanji's sigh is completely different from the meaning of Gao Yaxian's sigh.
Li Yuanji lamented that Du Fuwei was too smart.
According to historical records, Fugong You should have had alienation ideas a long time ago. The reason why he did not take action after Du Fuwei left Southeast Road was because he was waiting for Du Fuwei to enter Chang'an City.
As long as Du Fuwei enters Chang'an City and he shows signs of rebellion, he can get rid of Du Fuwei with the help of Li Yuan.
Once Du Fuwei died, he could completely rebel against the Tang Dynasty in the name of Li Tang's injustice and revenge for Du Fuwei.
Fu Gong Youshou clearly understood Du Fuwei's plot.
Li Yuanji has asked Gao Yaxian to tell Du Fuwei by name who will rebel.
Du Fuwei still couldn't wake up and make a break in time.
Li Yuanji also lost his temper with Du Fuwei.
Good words can't persuade a damn ghost.
There is such a calamity in Wang Xiong's life, and he cannot avoid it.
Who makes his lord not mentally intelligent?
If Fugong You wants to rebel, the first person he must get rid of is Wang Xiongdan, because only by getting rid of Wang Xiongdan can he gain military power in the Southeast Road.
Almost all the counselors under Du Fuwei were close friends with Fu Gongyou.
Du Fuwei sent someone back to remind Wang Xiongdan, but Wang Xiongdan couldn't defeat Fu Gongyou. Maybe the people Du Fuwei sent back would be used by Fu Gongyou.
Historically, Fu Gongyou used the name of Du Fuwei to trick Wang Xiongdan into relaxing his vigilance, then strangled Wang Xiongdan to death and obtained the military power of the Southeast Road.
"Why……"
Li Yuanji sighed again. Wang Xiongdan, a general, had no chance of joining him.
"Go and tell Li Fuwei that I want half of Wang Xiongdan's long sword army. If he is willing, he can send someone back quickly, transfer half of the long sword army, and take the family papers to Cangzhou to wait for orders.
If he doesn't want to, then if he is in trouble in the future, I will have no choice but to save his body for the sake of his Paidao Camp."
After Li Yuanji thought for a while, he decisively ordered Gao Yaxian.
Since Wang Xiongdan is already a mortal man, he can only plan and plan the Modao Army in Wang Xiongdan's hands.
While Wang Xiongdan is still alive, force Du Fuwei to see if he can get half of the Modao Army.
Li Yuanji didn't dare to think about the entire Modao Army.
Because even if Du Fuwei was willing, Wang Xiongdan, who was on Southeast Road, and Fu Gongyou, who was concerned about the military power in Wang Xiongdan's hands, would not be willing.
Gao Yaxian said doubtfully: "Li Fuwei has sent someone back to deliver a message to Wang Xiongdan, will he still bleed?"
Li Yuanji glanced at Gao Yaxian and said calmly: "Even if he sends someone back to deliver an imperial edict to Wang Xiongdan, his crisis will not be relieved."
Du Fuwei's biggest crisis originated from Li Yuan, not Fu Gongyou.
If Li Yuan intends to kill Du Fuwei, Du Fuwei will die regardless of whether Fu Gong rebels against him or not.
"I understand, I will go see Li Fuwei again."
Gao Yaxian bowed and hurriedly got up to see Du Fuwei. Before leaving, he also took away a few pieces of cold melon on the table.
Li Yuanji pretended not to see it.
Cold melon is the watermelon of later generations.
However, compared with later watermelons, the cold melon is smaller in size, its flesh is whiter and less red, and its seeds are also very large.
It's a bit like the underripe watermelon of later generations.
Li Yuanji couldn't eat it very much, but others liked it very much.
After Gao Yaxian left, Li Yuanji ate a few more bites of the cold melon, then threw away the rind and called the guards to start packing.
…
The next day, the third day of June.
Early in the morning, Li Yuanji got up at Yu Wenbao's call, packed his things, mounted his horse, and a group of 'minions', and rushed to the city gate to join Li Shimin and others.
When they were about to reach the city gate, Gao Yaxian, who had been chatting deeply with Du Fuwei all night, and Xue Wanshu, who was staring at Changsun Wuji, appeared next to Li Yuanji.
As soon as Gao Yaxian saw Li Yuanji, he smiled excitedly and said, "Your Highness, he agreed."
Li Yuanji sat astride the horse and nodded, but did not show much joy.
Du Fuwei agreed, which was expected by Li Yuanji.
After all, Du Fuwei is now a frightened bird.
As long as Du Fuwei's godsons are not touched, Du Fuwei can still accept the other conditions through gritted teeth.
Gao Yaxian didn't seem very happy to see Li Yuanji, and the smile on his face faded.
At this time, Xue Wanshu rode forward and said, "Your Highness, you must be careful on your way back to Beijing."
While talking, he handed a letter to Li Yuanji.
Li Yuanji got the letter, but did not read it. Instead, he put it in his arms and told Xue Wanshu: "You must remember the things I told you. If you are not sure about anything, discuss it with Ma Zhou.
Li Fuwei promised to give me some manpower to help the people in Cangzhou take care of the mulberry trees. Please remember to take care of me when the time comes."
The private transactions between Li Yuanji and Du Fuwei were not disclosed to the public for the time being, so they were not stated explicitly.
However, Xue Wanshu knew some of the inside story and would understand what he meant after meeting him.
Xue Wanshu was stunned for a moment, then cupped his hands and said: "I obey..."
Li Yuanji nodded, without saying another word, rode his horse and led Su Dingfang and others out of Luoyang City.
Li Yuanji did not take away everyone, but according to the previous plan, he kept Xue Wanshu and the soldiers of Youyi Tongjun Mansion.
Li Yuanji also left behind Ma Zhou and half of his subordinate officials and officials.
As soon as the document that Li Yuan appointed him as the Minister of Daxingtai of Hebei Province was delivered, Xue Wanshu, Ma Zhou and others could quickly rush to Hebei Province with food and preside over the military and civil affairs of Hebei Province.
Li Yuanji was well aware of Ma Zhou's abilities.
Therefore, by handing over the management of Hebei Province to Ma Zhou, plus his giving some suggestions from time to time, and using his status to help Hebei Province win some more favorable 'policies', Hebei Province should be able to regain its vitality very quickly.
Liu Heitai is dead, and Hebei Province will no longer experience Liu Heitao's troubles twice like in history.
Therefore, the current situation in Hebei Province is much better than in history.
It should be possible to restore vitality much faster than in history.
Exited the gate of Luoyang City.
Li Shimin, Li Shentong, Li Daozong, Liu Hongji, Yin Qiao and others have led their ministries and are ready to go.
Hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses gathered together, and the scene was quite spectacular.
It is almost impossible to see from the beginning to the end. It is a large area of darkness, coupled with the main tone of ink, it is quite oppressive.
"When I was at Weize Pass, if there were so many troops and horses available to mobilize, I would definitely be able to keep all the Turks."
After Su Dingfang saw the scene of hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses gathering, he felt sincerely.
Xue Wanshu, Xue Wanjun, Xue Wanche, and even Yu Wenbao and others were immersed in the sense of oppression brought by hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses.
It is rare to see hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses gathered together.
From the end of the Sui Dynasty to the present, the number of times hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses have gathered together can only be counted on one finger.
Li Yuanji strongly agreed with Su Dingfang's statement. When he was at Weize Pass, if there were so many troops and horses to mobilize, he would not have huddled in Weize Pass and let the Turks suppress him and beat him.
He probably had already led his soldiers and horses to rush out and have a head-on confrontation with the Turks.
"Yuanji, don't be stunned, I'm just waiting for you."
Li Xiuning greeted Li Yuanji from a distance.
Li Yuanji smiled and rode up to meet them. After a few brief greetings with Li Xiuning, Li Shimin, Li Shentong and Li Daozong.
Li Shimin gave the order, "Since everyone has arrived, let's give the order to set off."
Li Shimin didn't talk too much nonsense, nor did he make any parting remarks.
Because it's a waste of time and it's not necessary.
Without the help of a "big loudspeaker", if Li Shimin wanted to make a speech, he would have to send several groups of people to stand at the front of each army. He would shout a sentence and the people he sent would repeat it.
After a lot of fussing, most of the day passed.
The soldiers were eager to return home, but few wanted to hear Li Shimin's farewell speech at this time.
"Huhuhu..."
The flag officer guarding Li Shimin vigorously waved the flag in his hand, and the order to march was quickly transmitted to each army through the flag.
Then each army blew their horns in response.
Li Daozong took the lead and ran out first.
The soldiers and horses led by Li Daozong also started to move.
The soldiers and horses of each unit did not rush along the official road from Luoyang City to Chang'an City. Instead, after leaving a place not far from Luoyang City, they separated into several groups and rushed to other places.
