Chapter three hundred and seventy six points in the world(1/2)

Chapter 370 Six points in the world

The words on the letter skin were written in a mess. Even an old martial artist like Guo Ziyi could see that Li Qing'an's writing was very poor, and many children of seven or eight years old wrote better than him. Guo Ziyi couldn't help but sigh slightly. What's the use of this? Li Qing'an's methods really made him understand. He hid silently in the darkness, and before he arrived, the Hedong Army had already begun to cross the river, and sent troops to take away the Hedong Army. This opportunity was only one hour, and Li Qing'an accurately seized this hour without wasting a single minute.

Even if he wrote this letter to stabilize himself, Guo Ziyi couldn't help but feel very moved. He once wrote a letter to ask his old subordinate Li Guangbi to return to Shuofang, but Li Guangbi replied to him that he was willing to serve Li Qing'an. At first, Guo Ziyi didn't understand, but now he understood that Li Qing'an's ability to seize opportunities was beyond the reach of everyone, not to mention that he controlled 40,000 people with only two thousand cavalry. If he had not arranged in advance, it would only mean that his reputation was far from comparable to his own reputation! Guo Ziyi sighed.

‘The old general wanted to preserve the heart of the Hedong Army, and Qing'an admired it. Qing'an also wanted to follow the benevolence and righteousness of the old general and make the Hedong Army use it for the crown prince.















Seeing this, Guo Ziyi knew that there was no need to continue watching. He had great righteousness, but Li Qingan had no great righteousness. He was all using the signs of all of you, just to see who was louder.

"Tell me my order! The army retreated."

Guo Ziyi turned his head, and he couldn't help but look back at Menshan County. He really wanted to talk to Li Qing'an, let's go in the future!

















Li Qing'an stood on the top of the city and looked at Guo Ziyi's army from afar. He couldn't help but feel a sense of admiration in his heart. He knew that Guo Ziyi gave up fighting for the Hedong Army with him. It was not because he was afraid of himself. He was not afraid at all. As long as Menshan County besieged for three or five days, the hungry Hedong Army would raise his hand to surrender. Guo Ziyi was unwilling to kill each other and would rather give the Hedong Army to himself. This was the style of a general. Of course, there was also a kind of favor in it. Li Qing'an also realized Guo Ziyi's worldly side.

"This cunning guy!" In addition to admiration, he couldn't help but curse Guo Ziyi softly.

"You let go of me, you bastards, do you know who I am? I am the dignified right prime minister of the Tang Dynasty."

A burst of angry curses suddenly came from behind. Li Qing turned around suddenly and saw several personal soldiers escorting one of them forward. It was Yang Guozhong, the right prime minister of the Tang Dynasty. He was wearing a shabby old farmer's clothes and had coal ash on his face. He was tied with a cow rope by the person who caught him. He cut his hands behind him, struggling desperately, looking quite embarrassed.

Yang Guozhong escaped from King Rong's military camp three days ago. In his opinion, King Rong was no longer on the same road as him, and he died with him. This is something that Yang Guozhong would never do, so he thought about escaping back to Beijing. At first, King Rong took strict care of him and had no chance at all. However, as King Rong couldn't take care of himself, his supervision of him became increasingly relaxed. Finally, he seized an opportunity and hid in a grain truck and escaped. He did not dare to go back to the capital directly, but hid in Menshan County, rented a small house, and lived there like this. He always thought that after the situation was calm, he would enter Beijing calmly. Unexpectedly, 40,000 Hedong rushed into the county town today, plundered food everywhere, and robbed Yang Guozhong's money that was about to return to Beijing. In anger, he exposed his true identity and was caught by the soldiers.

At this moment, Yang Guozhong realized that the person standing in front of him was his old rival Li Qing'an. Yang Guozhong suddenly calmed down, opened his mouth wide, and looked extremely surprised, "How could it be you?"

Li Qingan looked at Yang Guozhong and smiled and said, "If you go to the capital like this and walk on the street, you will guarantee that no one will believe that you are the right prime minister."

He waved his hand and said, "Let loose!"

Several personal soldiers let go of Yang Guozhong. Yang Guozhong relaxed and was about to scold his personal soldiers angrily, but Li Qing'an laughed first: "The soldiers have never seen the world. When they saw an old country farmer pretending to be Yang Xiangguo, they thought they would give him a harsh punishment and then arrest him to report the news. Yang Xiangguo, this is protecting your reputation!"

"This..." Yang Guozhong touched his face and was beaten to the point of being blue and swollen, and could not say a word.

"Come on! Come and bring a chair to sit down for the Prime Minister, and pour a cup of tea."

After drinking a sip of hot tea, Yang Guozhong finally recovered a little from his fear and anxiety. He sighed and said sadly: "I guess the emperor can't stand this time. It's almost twenty days old, and he's still unconscious. Alas! The Tang Dynasty is in trouble."

"There will be no difficulty with the crown prince in the Tang Dynasty. However, you, Prime Minister Yang, may be in trouble."

Yang Guozhong's heart jumped, and Qiqiai Ai said, "General, what do you mean?"

Li Qingan smiled and changed the topic: "I want to ask Yang Xiangguo, where do you want to go now? Go back to the capital, or go to Hedong, Chengdu or Xiangyang?"

Yang Guozhong was silent, lowered his head and said nothing. Li Qingan smiled faintly again and said, "Secretary Yang, don't get me wrong. I'm not asking you about your position. I want to send someone to escort you, so you have to know where you are?"

Yang Guozhong was silent for a long time, and he sighed and said, "Then go back to Chang'an!"















In Fulu County, Li Heng opened the letter Li Qing'an to him with expressionless expression. He was a little dissatisfied with Guo Ziyi letting go of 40,000 Hedong Army so easily, but this dissatisfaction was suppressed by him. Li Heng was not a magnanimous person. He was indifferent to the fact that he was very kind and held great grudges. Many years after Li Linfu died in history, he was still resentful and refused to pardon Li Linfu, even Gao Lishi and his father. He later settled the accounts slowly, including Li Qing'an. Although Li Qing'an was once loyal to him, when he betrayed everyone, only Li Qing'an was still loyal to him, he could not remember these things. He only remembered that Li Qing'an had disobeyed his orders.

For example, now, Li Qing'an took away 40,000 Hedong Army with a sword, which made him extremely dissatisfied. Li Heng slowly opened the letter and read it briefly.

'Li Qing'an was respectful to the King of Qi Yong. Guanzhong was empty. An Lushan wanted to steal the temple and sent 100,000 troops to Tongguan. Qing'an was worried about the crown prince. He ran thousands of miles away and refused An Lushan in Tongguan. The throne of Chang'an was empty. There were many people looking at him. He hoped that King Yong would return to Chang'an early and support the crown prince, which was hoped by the people of the world.'

Li Heng's face changed slightly. He didn't know that An Lushan had attacked Tongguan. He had also worried that Guanzhong would be empty, but he was also lucky. Maybe there was nothing wrong in Guanzhong. In comparison, recruiting Ge Shuhan was much more important to him. Unexpectedly, something happened in Guanzhong.

Li Heng's face changed several times. Finally, he accepted the letter, pondered for a moment, and ordered: "Tell me my order to Old General Guo, and you can leave 20,000 troops to defend Shuofang, and the rest of the troops will return to Chang'an immediately!"















In May of the 12th year of Tianbao, King Yong Li Heng led an army of 100,000 to Chang'an. The Tang Dynasty emperor Li Longji, who had been unconscious for nearly 20 days, was also the Emperor Li Longji of the Tang Dynasty. At this time, Yang Guozhong also returned to Chang'an with shameless reasons. His reason was very simple. He was coerced by King Rong and escaped after a lot of hardships. In order to impress the crown prince, he wrote a memorial of ten thousand words in a row. Of course, at the end of the memorial, he could not forget to incite the incendiary: In order to support the crown prince to take office, he would be sent back to Chang'an even if he climbed.

Li Yu generously forgave him, and still suggested that he be the right prime minister and reward him with a thousand yuan of silver to commend his loyalty. After all, the Yang Party is still the largest party in the court, and it is not yet time to turn against him. Yang Guozhong's allegiance to him is enough to offset Zhang Yun's opposition to him.

In the Eastern Palace, Li Yu had not been asleep for almost a night. The excitement and excitement made him unable to fall asleep. His father led a 100,000 army back, causing his ascension to the throne to finally fall into the ground and there will be no more accidents.

He personally brought a cup of tea, knelt respectfully in front of his father, and gave him both hands to the tea, "Please give him tea, sir, father!"

Li Heng took the tea cup, took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "Are the emperor worried that he would not hand over military power to you for his father?"

"The boy dared not, he never had this worry."

"Well! It's right for you to not have this worry. After going through ups and downs for your father, you have long been indifferent to the career of power. If it weren't for you, you would never have worked hard in Shuofang for the past half month."

"The child understands that the child is grateful for his father's favor."

Li Heng was quite satisfied with his son's attitude. He took out a tiger talisman, which was the military talisman that mobilized the Guanzhong army. It was always in the hands of Li Longji, and later fell into Li Heng's hands.

He put the tiger talisman on the table, and raised his voice to teach his son a lesson, "I will officially return the military talisman to you, but you still have too few troops in your hands. You must have at least 300,000 troops to protect your throne. You can't believe anyone except as a father. Remember?"

"The child remembers the words of his father in his heart."

"If you remember, then you will work hard for two more years to recruit soldiers for you. The reason for being a father is that Li Qing'an's lesson on recruiting soldiers is there. Everyone will have selfish intentions. In war, you should understand this principle."

Although Li Yu was a little unwilling, he had no choice but to do anything. His father had good intentions, so how could he say no?

"I'm just worried about my father's body."

"My health is fine. This time I was in Qinggangling, and I personally led the troops to fight. To be honest, I want to be a military governor, haha!"

Li Yu could only agree: "Then I'll have to work harder for my father."

Li Heng nodded, "Okay then! You can do it yourself, I will say goodbye first."

After Li Heng finished speaking, he looked at the tiger talisman with some reluctance and stood up and left.

Li Yu kept kneeling on the ground. When his father left, he stood up and quickly took the tiger talisman on the table in his hand. He squinted his eyes and looked at the tiger talisman carefully with some greed. Military power. He now deeply realized the importance of military power. Guanzhong was empty. If it weren't for Li Qing'an, he might have become An Lushan's puppet. It was because he had no soldiers in his hands that he now understood why the emperor's grandfather had to take back the military power of the major military powers. The weak trunk and strong branches were indeed a very serious problem.

At this time, Gao Lishi walked in and bowed and said, "Is Your Highness the Crown Prince looking for an old slave?"

Gao Lishi is very old now, with a little hunched back and a silver hair. He has always lived in the Eastern Palace, but Li Yu rarely looks for him. On the one hand, although he was the confidant of the emperor's grandfather, on the other hand, Li Yu does not advocate eunuchs' interference in politics. He discusses anything with Li Mi, and he almost ignores Gao Lishi.

But today he needs Galix, and he wants to hear Galix's advice on his ascending the throne.

"Aweng, you are a veteran of this dynasty. You have experienced the ascension of the emperor's grandfather, so I want to ask Aweng for advice. Some ministers have written a letter to call on me to ascend the throne. How should I deal with it?"

"Your Highness ascended the throne is something that everyone hopes. I have nothing to say. I only make three suggestions. Please refer to it."

"Please tell me if Ahn!" Li Yu sat down, but ignored Gao Lishi and stood there, feeling quite struggling.

Gao Lishi said slowly: "The first suggestion is that your highness should not be rushed to accept it. You must postpone it. The emperor delayed it three times before accepting the appointment of the Supreme Emperor. Your Highness must do this attitude. As for how many times it is postponed, your Highness will consider it himself."

Li Yu nodded. This suggestion was very good. He could accept it. He asked again: "What about the second suggestion?"

"The second suggestion is that Your Highness should hold the throne as soon as possible, and try to adopt a compromise strategy for foreign vassals and princes. Don't provoke war easily. Otherwise, Your Highness will take action if you don't sit firmly. It will easily make some ministers feel unfaithful, make the people of the world uneasy, and reduce the world's recognition of Your Highness's orthodox recognition."

This suggestion is the same as Li Mi said. First, tolerate it to firmly sit in the throne, and then slowly consider reducing the vassal states. Li Yu nodded and said, "What about the third suggestion?"

"Old slave's third suggestion is not to rush your highness's innovation. Many innovations will violate the interests of large groups, such as land annexation. If your highness rashly takes the land, it will inevitably offend the entire royal family, which is quite unfavorable to your highness. I suggest that your highness should focus on stability first, stabilize for a few years, and then slowly take action."
