While Li Yuanji was thinking about how to deal with Li Zhongwen's matter, he gave instructions to Chai Shao.
Chai Shao opened his mouth hurriedly, as if he still had something to say.
But Li Yuanji did not give Chai Shao another chance to speak, "Don't worry, I will handle this matter properly and will definitely not cause any trouble to you, Mr. Chai."
Chai Shao shouted excitedly: "Am I really so miserable in your heart?"
Before Li Yuanji could speak, Chai Shao shouted again, "I, Chai Shao, am also a man who can go to the battlefield and command an army."
Li Yuanji glanced at Chai Shao and snorted sarcastically: "Don't you know what kind of person you are?"
After saying this, Li Yuanji was too lazy to talk nonsense to Chai Shao and decisively ordered Shang Yi who was guarding the door to see off the guests.
Chai Shao still had something to say, but Shang Yi, who was guarding the door, stood in front of him, bowed respectfully, and said in a neither humble nor overbearing tone: "Xian County Chai, it's time for you to go."
Chai Shao trembled and opened his mouth. Seeing that Li Yuanji had turned his back, he could only let out a long breath, and left the main room of the monastery with Chai Zhewei full of unwillingness and grief.
As soon as Chai Shao left, Li Yuanji immediately ordered people to go to Chang'an City to inform Su Dingfang.
When the sun set over the stars, Su Dingfang arrived at the main room of the monastery with a cold air, covered in stars and the moon.
Li Yuanji hurriedly invited Su Dingfang into the house.
Although the New Year has passed, the weather in Chang'an City is still very cold, and it seems to be three points colder than last winter.
People would shiver from the cold if they stood outside for a long time, let alone galloping in the cold wind.
When Li Yuanji saw that Su Dingfang's few beards were covered with a layer of frost, he knew that Su Dingfang would work here non-stop after receiving his summons.
So he quickly asked Su Dingfang to sit in front of the brazier. After the maid served hot tea and a plate of steaming cooked meat, he divided the meat with a knife and asked Su Dingfang.
"You should know the general situation of Weize Pass, right?"
Su Dingfang held the teacup in both hands, feeling the heat coming from the teacup, and nodded as he asked, "I accompanied His Highness to resist the Turks at Weize Pass before, so I naturally understand the situation at Weize Pass.
Your Highness, you summoned me here in a hurry, but what happened at Weize Pass?"
Su Dingfang is also a smart man. Li Yuanji called him over in the middle of the night and mentioned Weize Pass again. There must be some change in Weize Pass that he needed to deal with.
So he didn't say much and directly asked what happened at Weize Pass.
Li Yuanji nodded and roughly told Su Dingfang what Chai Shao had told him, and also shared some information he had obtained based on history.
After Su Dingfang heard everything that happened at Weize Pass and everything that would happen, he frowned slightly and asked: "His Highness summoned the minister over late at night, presumably because he wanted the minister to deal with this matter.
To what extent is Your Highness prepared to let me deal with it, and what exactly will it be done?"
Su Dingfang did not shirk. After weighing whether he could handle what happened at Weize Pass, he directly asked Li Yuanji what he wanted to achieve at Weize Pass.
Li Yuanji said bluntly: "I will give you a thousand fine cavalry, one person and two horses. You should set off now and arrive at Weize Pass within seven days. After arriving at Weize Pass, ask He Panren and Ma Sanbao to cooperate with you and capture Li Zhongwen."
He will take over the military power and take over the defense of Weize Pass."
Su Dingfang pondered: "He Panren and Ma Sanbao may not listen to me, and Li Zhongwen may also resist."
Li Yuanji snorted coldly: "I will write a letter to He Panren and Ma Sanbao. After they read it, they will definitely listen to you. As for Li Zhongwen, if he dares to resist, you should not be polite to him."
Speaking of this, Li Yuanji glanced at Su Dingfang and said: "You know the situation in Chang'an City very well now. I don't have time to waste time with Li Zhongwen, let alone find out whether he has been wrongly accused."
Su Dingfang nodded solemnly.
The situation in Chang'an City is indeed tense now.
Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin have begun to attack each other's lives, which shows that the struggle between them has reached the final stage.
As a person in the situation, Li Yuanji will still be involved at critical moments even if he tries his best to stay out of it.
So on Li Zhongwen's side, Li Yuanji really didn't have time to spend time with him, nor did he have time to check whether he was wrongly accused.
If he has any grievances, he can apologize for himself afterwards, but at this time, no one will accommodate him.
"I understand. After I arrive at Weize Pass, I will remove Li Zhongwen's military power as soon as possible. As for Ma Sanbao..."
When Su Dingfang mentioned Ma Sanbao, he hesitated.
Chai Shao didn't say what Ma Sanbao was doing at Weizeguan, and Li Yuanji didn't even guess.
So Su Dingfang couldn't make up his mind on how to face Ma Sanbao.
Li Yuanji was also undecided, but he thought that no matter what Ma Sanbao did in Weizeguan, it would be harmful to Li Xiuning, he frowned and said: "I will explain my sister's situation to Ma Sanbao in the letter."
, I believe that after he understands the inside story, he will not act rashly.
However, don’t be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of the worst.
If Ma Sanbao dares to do something stupid, you must stop him in time.
If necessary, I allow you to temporarily detain him."
Su Dingfang nodded immediately and had no other questions.
Li Yuanji pushed the big pieces of meat on the plate in front of Su Dingfang, gave Su Dingfang an iron skewer and a cup of seasonings, and asked Su Dingfang to roast and eat the almost cold meat, and then returned to the table.
, rubbed his hands and started writing quickly.
Since there were many things to explain to Ma Sanbao, Li Yuanji's letter was very long and took a long time.
It took a full two-quarters of an hour and seven or eight pages of paper.
Li Yuanji was used to the writing style of later generations, the Tang Dynasty's way of three or four characters representing a sentence, but Li Yuanji was really not used to it.
So every time he wrote an important letter, he wrote it in great detail.
So far, no one has said there is anything wrong with him writing this way.
After writing the letter, putting it in the mailbox, sealing it with wax, and handing it over to the well-fed and drunk Su Dingfang, he added a special warning, "It's a long way to Weizeguan, so you must be extremely careful. If you encounter something unexpected,
If anyone with long eyes blocks the way, let me get through.
Don't be afraid of offending others. If the sky falls, I will hold you up."
When Su Dingfang heard this, he immediately became happy. After putting away the mailbox, he clasped his fists and said, "With these words from Your Highness, I feel relieved."
Li Yuanji nodded, patted Su Dingfang on the shoulder and said: "If you find any disobedient soldiers or dishonest bandits afterwards, rush them all to Zhaozhou.
You, Kan Leng and the others have made a lot of money on the Southeast Road, but Luo Shixin, Xue Wanshu and the others have made nothing.
If you have the chance, create some opportunities for them.
Otherwise, if you are rich and they are not, they will blame me for being partial."
Su Dingfang was stunned and said cheerfully: "With the water transportation from Luoyang to Dizhou and the sea transportation from Dizhou to Jiaozhou, they will be able to make enough money sooner or later. There is no way they will not have a chance."
Su Dingfang participated in the establishment of water transportation from Luoyang to Dizhou, and also presided over the sea transportation from Dizhou to Jiaozhou.
We know how profitable these two transportation lines are.
Therefore, he did not think that Luo Shixin and Xue Wanshu, who were involved in these two transportation lines, could not become rich.
It is no exaggeration to say that if you find a dog and hang a bag full of biscuits around the dog's neck, you don't need the dog to do anything. You just need to let the dog go down to each pier, empty the contents of the bag, and buy some local specialties.
Put it in the bag and pour it around along the way, and you can pour out hundreds of dollars.
If you're lucky, thousands of dollars won't be a problem.
This is the charm of water transportation and sea transportation.
Hu cakes worth only two cents in Luoyang can be sold for five or six cents in Weizhou and other places, and can be sold for more than ten cents in Dizhou.
Linen, which is not very valuable in Dizhou, is considered high-quality goods when brought to Jiaozhou. It can be exchanged for various gemstones, rhinoceros horns, precious medicinal materials, etc. from the natives of Jiaozhou.
On the return trip to Yangzhou, it can carry a shipload of grain, or a shipload of various popular goods needed by Luoyang, Dizhou and other places.
That is, the longer the cycle, the higher the risk.
After all, it has been more than half a year since Li Yuanji dredged water transportation and opened up sea transportation, and he has yet to see any money back.
The fleet that went to Jiaozhou by sea destroyed dozens of small boats when it went there, and also damaged a large ship and a dozen small boats when it came back.
Goods worth more than 100,000 pounds were buried in the sea, and hundreds of lives were also lost in the sea.
However, no one in charge of water and sea transportation cared about this matter.
Because compared to the huge income, this effort is really insignificant.
Compared with the cost of plundering the enemy's wealth on the battlefield, it is hundreds of times smaller.
"The problem is that they are busy dealing with the Li family in Zhaozhou now, and they don't have time to share the huge profits in water transportation and sea transportation."
Li Yuanji rolled his eyes at Su Dingfang and said angrily.
This Su Dingfang is real, does he have to be told so clearly?
Su Dingfang blinked and instantly understood what Li Yuanji was thinking.
Li Yuanji asked him to drive the bandits and soldiers to Zhaozhou to let Luo Shixin and others enjoy the benefits. It was a lie, but it was true to bring trouble to the Li family in Zhaozhou.
Zhaozhou is not in chaos. How can the army under Luo Shixin, Xue Wanshu and others enter Zhaozhou legitimately?
The armies under Luo Shixin, Xue Wanshu and others did not enter Zhaozhou. Merely blocking the trade routes of the Li family in Zhaozhou was not enough to injure the Li family in Zhaozhou.
Only when the army under Luo Shixin, Xue Wanshu and others entered Zhaozhou in the name of suppressing bandits could they break the bones and muscles of the Zhaozhou Li family and torture the Zhaozhou Li family to the point of death.
After all, it is difficult to eradicate bandits in one go.
Due to the threat of bandits and bandits, powerful people from all over the world often pay tribute to bandits and bandits.
It is also common for the government to confiscate powerful people from various places who support bandits and bandits.
Therefore, as long as Zhaozhou begins to have large-scale banditry, and the Li family in Zhaozhou gets involved with the banditry, it will be difficult to escape.
