Luo Yi was not surprised to see Wei Zheng coming out. He knew that Wei Zheng and Wei Ting in the East Palace had contacts with Li Shanduo, and the former was even kind to Wei Zheng.
Without waiting for Luo Yi to defend himself, Wei Zheng said loudly: "During the Shandong War, Li Huairen was chased all the way south. He saw the Turks raging in Hebei, and saw the villages desolate and dogs barking. If he had the power, would he just sit in the city?"
"If you can hold on..."
Luo Yi only said four words before Wei Zheng interrupted sharply, "A certain person set off with Huairen and stopped at the river bank. Didn't he know?"
Li Jiancheng nodded slightly. This matter had been discussed a few months ago... Under the circumstances of being surrounded and cut off from news, Li Shan, the only one who went north from Shaanxi Province to Shandong, knew it well and took the lead.
It was impossible for Qi King Li Yuanji, who had thousands of troops, to come to his aid.
In other words, Li Shan's plan for a great victory made Donggong's plans completely fail, but this was not Li Shan's original intention.
Well, I can’t say there’s anything wrong with this direction of thinking, it’s just that they haven’t read time-travel novels…
Zheng Shanguo smiled and said: "Young heroes are high-spirited. Since they are capable, they should rise up."
"On that day in Qinghe County, the King of Huaiyang sat and watched, witnessing the rebellion and civil turmoil. Huairen beheaded Cui Bo to put an end to the chaos. Although he lost his strength, he showed his heart." Wei Zheng paused and raised his voice: "If
If Wu Huairen makes a decisive decision, it will harm the prince's virtue."
This time Wang Gui, Xu Shimo and others nodded in agreement, and even Zheng Shanguo, whose mother was from the Cui family in Qinghe, also nodded in agreement. He had tried to appease Shandong this year and had inquired into the details of the matter.
The chaos was about to break out that day, and the Qin kings headed by Li Daoxuan watched with cold eyes, hoping that... the prince would seize the power to appease Shandong, but in the end Shandong revolted for the third time.
This is also the main reason why Li Jiancheng treats Li Shan quite favorably and does not regard him as a lineage of the Qin king... Although after the war, Ling Jing joined the Tiance Mansion.
Wang Gui said slowly: "Since Li Huairen returned to Beijing, he first became famous for his poetic talent, and then saved Princess Pingyang and won the favor of the saint. He was granted the title of Duke of Guantao County for planning the Shandong war... But upon closer inspection, he became an official through the imperial examination.
, dealing with each other without restraint and without any bias."
Luo Yi was good at battles and also liked scheming, but words were not his strong point. He was blushing when he was scolded. At this time, he spoke without hesitation and said angrily: "Such people cannot be used by Your Highness, so they should be eliminated!"
"This is a big fallacy!" Wei Zheng was furious, "There are many officials and famous people in the world. Now that the King of Qin is spying on the East Palace, His Highness should recruit heroes to respond, but it is by no means either/or!"
"If it cannot be used by Your Highness, it must be eliminated. Once word spreads, all the talents in the world will be in the hands of King Qin!"
Li Jiancheng nodded again, thinking that since his second brother returned to Beijing the year before last, he has been recruiting heroes... Luo Yi, this is really a bad idea!
Zheng Shanguo said slowly: "Xuan Cheng said just now that as a prince, you cannot exceed the rules."
Li Jiancheng's eyes flickered, he raised his hand to signal Luo Yi to shut up, and said softly: "Huairen has won the favor of his father... Yan Chao, the crown prince alone has chosen a noble girl for him."
Luo Yi gritted his teeth secretly, but had to stand up and thank his eldest son. After all, he had been serving in the local military since the Sui Dynasty and knew little about court affairs, not to mention Zheng Shanguo's words in a roundabout way, so...
And Li Jiancheng, Wei Zheng and others all understood. Now in the East Palace, the King of Qin is seizing the throne. Many officials in the court have a choice of leader, but not every official will choose a leader. A considerable number of officials are only loyal to Li Yuan, or in other words, loyal to Li Yuan.
Li Tang.
A young talent is valued by Li Yuan, but the Prince of the East Palace must deliberately be gentle and win over him. Is this necessary?
Zheng Shanguo's words were a warning, warning Li Jiancheng to keep a close eye on himself... Since ancient times, there has always been a need to maintain a subtle distance between the emperor and the prince.
The former Sui prince Yang Yong did not grasp the scale.
Glancing at the gloomy-looking Luo Yi, Li Jiancheng felt powerless in his heart and wondered whether he should reveal the truth in private.
Luo Yi hates Li Huairen deeply, just because he feels that Li Shan has robbed your daughter-in-law and lost Luo's face... But in fact, they have hooked up with her a long time ago. The fact is that your son Luo Yang wanted to steal his love, so he was killed by Li Shan.
Shan is good at giving a fierce retort.
Comparatively speaking, Luo Yang couldn't compare with Li Shan in any aspect...even his boxing and kicking skills couldn't compare, and he was beaten like that.
Li Jiancheng thought for a moment and changed the topic, "Today, the Liangyi Palace is discussing matters, and the King of Wu will be killed. I wonder if it will be helpful to the war in Jiangnan."
"The year before last, Dou Jiande was beheaded, and Shandong rebelled twice." Wang Gui stroked his beard and said, "But we cannot say the same thing."
Wei Zheng and Zheng Shanguo both nodded in agreement. Among the people present, although they had different backgrounds, they had both been captured by the Xia army. Wei Zheng even served as an official in the Xia Dynasty.
Although Dou Jiande came from a wealthy family, his reputation for benevolence and righteousness spread throughout Shandong, so he would receive widespread sympathy after being beheaded. In addition, the Tang army's massive raids in Shandong led to two revolts in Shandong.
But this kind of thing is unlikely to happen in Jiangnan, and it is even less likely to happen to Du Fuwei. The Jianghuai army has always been famous for its ferocity and often kills, and Du Fuwei himself is also known for his ruthlessness.
Li Jiancheng calculated in his mind that killing Du Fuwei would be helpful to the army's campaign. Among the six-pronged army this time, although there were Li Shiji, there were also Ren Gui, and more importantly, Li Xiaogong and Li Jing.
Now Li Jiancheng no longer expects to establish prestige in the army, but he definitely does not want to see the generals of King Qin's line continue to make achievements.
While he was thinking about it, Prince Zuowei led Wei Tingda into the palace, looking a little solemn.
Li Jiancheng was a little surprised. He and Wei Ting had been close friends since they were young. He knew that this good friend had never been serious and was used to making fun of people. It was rare to see him like this.
"Your Highness." Wei Ting walked quickly to the throne, "I have just received my reward. The sage ordered Princess Pingyang to recruit the old troops to the capital, and strengthen the left and right prison guards, and the left and right Qianniu guards, all under the control of Princess Pingyang."
There was a commotion in the palace. Li Jiancheng's eyes lit up and he couldn't help but look at Wang Gui and Wei Zheng... It was these two close aides who came up with the idea to persuade his father to recall Princess Pingyang. Although it was quite bumpy, it finally paid off.
Li Tang followed the Sui Dynasty system and established sixteen guards. The first twelve guards led the soldiers of the world. The last four guards were mainly based on the recruiting system. They formed the Bei Ya forbidden army to protect the palace and be in charge of gate control and guard affairs.
Li Yuan asked Princess Pingyang to lead the Beiya Imperial Army, which can be interpreted as his trust in her. After all, she was entrusting her family and life to her.
It can also be explained that Li Yuan is trying to balance the battle for the legitimate son. After all, Princess Pingyang is the only character in the Tang army who can compete with Li Shimin in terms of prestige and influence, and Princess Pingyang has no obvious position in the battle for the legitimate son.
It can also be explained that Li Yuan was wary of his second son Li Shimin. After all, although the private armed forces of the Prince of Qin in Beijing did not have any advantage in terms of numbers, in terms of force and control of the army, it was difficult for Li Yuan to compare, not to mention Li Jiancheng.
But no matter how you explain it, this is good news for the East Palace, and it is also news that is destined to shock the entire city of Chang'an.
