Gao Shang hurriedly reached out to pick it up, but An Lushan bent down to pick it up in advance. He held it in his hand and turned it over, asking him: "What kind of book is this?"
Military Advisor Gao coughed dryly and then said: "This is Yuan Tiangang, a master of yin and yang magic who experienced the Sui and Tang dynasties, and Li Chunfeng, a master of astronomy and astronomy. They worked together to deduce the fate of the Tang Dynasty on the order of Emperor Taizong, and they successively pushed the sixty hexagrams overnight.
, calculating the rise and fall for two thousand years, the changes in the world, the rise and fall of dynasties, all in this book."
"Oh?" An Lushan's eyes shone, as if he had seen the dawn, and as if he had seen a treasure. He asked excitedly: "Is there any record or deduction of the current situation in the world?"
"Of course there is, my lord, please take a look..." Gao Shang asked An Lushan to sit in front of the desk, turned the page of the book and pointed at one of the hexagrams and said: "This is the Wuchen Guan hexagram. The observer is virtuous and the observer is timely.
Lord, this is a prophecy. The flowers are flying, and the road to Shu is difficult. Cut off the bamboo flute to see the sun, and no official can be safe. The poplar flowers mean that the Yang family is the leader of the chaos, and the road to Shu means the place where the Tang court escapes. Cut off the bamboo flute.
The meaning of "Jianri" is that Mianyang in Sichuan is rich in bamboo, and the lord's final battle to destroy the Tang Dynasty must be in Mianyang. Moreover, no official means peace, and the word "official" is taken as a historical character. The meaning of this sentence is,
The one who can conquer Tongguan and pacify Chang'an is the most trusted general of our lord, Pinglu, the military envoy Shi Weiqian."
An Lushan was so excited that he rubbed his hands repeatedly and paced back and forth on the ground. He seemed to be full of confidence, but his heart was full of worries: "Now a certain person has only more than 200,000 soldiers and horses in his hands. If something goes wrong in the future, he will naturally have to stay behind."
In Jiedu, only 150,000 people could be taken away? But now there are only 120,000 soldiers in the Sixteenth Guards of the Sixth Army in Chang'an? The total number of soldiers and horses in the other towns is more than 400,000. This disparity in strength is too great.
? How can we win?"
"Why should you worry, sir?" Gao Shang persuaded confidently: "Nowadays, the imperial court is more focused on the inside and the outside. The guards in Chang'an, the capital, are the prodigal sons of the city? They have never learned to fight, and they are not as good as farmers? How can they defeat my heavy armored cavalry?"
"
"But now every town is guarded by famous generals? An Sishun is brave and resourceful, willing to serve the Tang Dynasty, Ge Shuhan is tenacious and resolute, and good at capturing. There are also three towns Jiedushi Li Siye? Chishui under his command? Anxi Army, Beiting Han Haijun
, they are all armies that can mount light cavalry and carry out expeditions. They have defeated big and small Bolu and expeditions to eat. They have conquered Tianzhu, which is beyond the reach of famous generals in ancient and modern times. Even though I have good generals under my command, I am afraid that I will not be defeated."
He raised his head high and belittled these potential opponents one by one: "Although An Sishun is brave, he lacks decisiveness. Although Ge Shuhan is decisive, his temperament is easily influenced. Although Li Siye has the style of a famous general, he is popular with the court.
Are you afraid? You will definitely not be given great power. Now that the lord has a plan to apply for the army? It is naturally destiny. Even if Sun Wu is reborn and Zhuge appears, he cannot violate the destiny, let alone just a few named generals, the lord does not have to
Worry.”
An Lushan nodded in surprise but affirmation: "Just as Mr. said, my great cause will be accomplished, and I will definitely grant you the title of Right Prime Minister to take charge of the court."
"Gao Shang dare not have any wrong thoughts. I only hope to assist my lord in achieving the great cause of becoming king."
Fatty An personally tied the belt of Gao Shang's black fox fur cloak, and kept comforting him, saying: "Since it is destiny, we must abide by our destiny and seek specific methods. Everything happens naturally, and there is no need to leave any trace."
"My lord, Gao Shang will retire first."
He pushed open the partitions on the side of the main hall, and snowflakes were already flying outside the window. Gao Shang, wearing a fox fur, stepped into the snow alone. He raised his head and looked around. The whole land of Hebei seemed to be involved in the vast world of snow.
All that remains is the coming changes.
Although An Lushan pushed again and again, the desire in his heart was already extremely strong. Perhaps as long as he added more strength and a few bundles of firewood, his flame would surely burn through half of the Tang Dynasty.
…
When Yang Guozhong learned that An Lushan was on his way back, he worked hard and sailed boats along the Yellow River for three hundred miles a day. To achieve such a journey efficiency, he was clearly running for his life. Looking back now, Yang Guozhong's divine prediction was correct.
You will definitely be able to predict success in the future.
The conflict between him and An Lushan had already formed, but the point where the conflict emerged and broke up was with Ji Wen.
After Li Linfu lost power, he and An Lushan, who were both members of the Right Chancellor's Party, began to win over allies in the court. He, Yang Zhao, was the first to favor Jiwen, who was an all-round interrogator and talker, and asked the emperor for help.
He recommended him as the censor Zhongcheng. But what he didn't expect was that An Lushan would also attack Ji Wen. Regardless of the fact that he had already recruited him, he wanted to protect Ji Wen in broad daylight in the court to serve as the minister of military affairs and the envoy of the fifth chamber.
.
This made Yang Guozhong furious. After resigning from the court, he immediately ordered Wu Zhizhi, the judge of Dali Temple, to report Ji Wen for taking bribes. In the end, Ji Wen was demoted to Liyang Changshi, and he still has no chance to turn around.
Ji Wen was considered one of the poor people at the moment, and he actually became a victim of the struggle between two powerful officials of the Tang Dynasty.
Yang Guozhong never forgets to look for the ironclad evidence of An Lushan's rebellion. He will use any hint of trouble to prove it. Now that An Lushan has fled back to Fan Yang so fast, he must be guilty of being a thief. This alone is enough to convince the court.
Play them in front of the emperor.
Every early morning, the Chao Shen was held in the Zichen Hall. Although Emperor Li Longji became increasingly lazy and lazy, the Chao Shen was not abolished. It was just held every day and became held on certain days of each month.
Yang Guozhong stood in the front row of civil and military officials holding the Chaohu tablet. Facing the emperor who was sitting on the steps of his Majesty, wearing a crown and a screen behind him, the palace maids fanned their hands.
He raced as fast as he could to survive, changing dozens of horses along the way, and took more than a dozen boats along the Yellow River, and escaped back to Yingzhou in just twenty-three days. This is clearly a thief with a guilty conscience."
Li Longji often heard these words, and his ears had already become calluses, but he could only nod helplessly and said: "You two have always had conflicts, which in my opinion is human nature. Doctor An has always been loyal to me, and you
, and you, Wei Jiansu, the way you are loyal is very different from the way Dr. An shows his loyalty. You are all my ministers, so naturally I can see it more clearly and thoroughly than you."
What the emperor said was equivalent to saying nothing. Che Zhulun only said a few words back and forth. What he meant was that he still believed and supported An Lushan unconditionally, and hoped that the courtiers would not treat Fatty An with prejudice.
Seeing that his participation had no effect, Yang Guozhong quickly thought of a very effective and vicious method. An Lushan's son An Qingzong was granted marriage by Li Longji to the clan's daughter Princess Rongyi.
