Zhang Luanzi narrowed his eyes and said with a smile: "Your Majesty is a man of long life, with prosperous descendants and a long and prosperous life."
Tian Chengsi has more than a dozen sons, and it is inevitable that his descendants will prosper, but Tian Chengsi is more concerned about the inheritance of his own inheritance. He chuckled and said: "Thanks to the auspicious words of the Heavenly Master, I wonder how long the foundation of Wei can be passed down?"
Zhang Luanzi raised a finger and said, "At least a hundred years!"
Tian Chengsi was overjoyed. At this time, Wei Yunzhong brought a dozen young people wearing brocade robes and stood in a row in the hall. Tian Chengsi smiled and said: "These are my nephews. Can you take a look at them for me?"
?”
Zhang Luanzi looked at them one by one with a smile, and his eyes fell on the last young man who was the only one wearing common clothes. He smiled and said: "Young masters, please step aside first!"
All the young masters retreated, each with a disdainful look on their face, but because of their father's face, they didn't dare to say anything.
Tian Chengsi asked: "How?"
Zhang Luanzi said calmly: "Young masters are all people who enjoy happiness."
Tian Chengsi's expression changed slightly. Another meaning of this sentence was that all his sons were mediocre.
Zhang Luanzi smiled and said: "But the last man in cloth is a bit interesting."
Tian Chengsi's face softened slightly and he smiled slightly: "The Heavenly Master should be talking about my nephew Tian Yue. The Heavenly Master is optimistic about him?"
Zhang Luanzi nodded, "My nephew's appearance is extraordinary, and he has a vague look of an emperor. More importantly, I know what everyone else is thinking. Only my nephew is hiding his secrets, and I can't see through him."
Tian Chengsi secretly praised Zhang Luanzi for being worthy of being called the Three-Eyed Judge. Among his nephews, the one he valued the most was his nephew Tian Yue. He was simple, self-disciplined, did not admire luxury, and was brave in martial arts and very intelligent, much like himself.
Tian Chengsi wanted to pass his business to his nephew instead of his son, but this was a secret in his heart.
Unexpectedly, when Zhang Luanzi met for the first time today, he immediately saw how extraordinary his nephew Tian Yue was. Tian Chengsi couldn't help but think more highly of Zhang Luanzi. He also made up his mind to sign a contract with Li Xilie.
After pondering for a moment, Tian Chengsi revealed what he was most worried about, "What does the Heavenly Master think of Li Ye?"
Zhang Luanzi pondered for a long time and said: "Qi King Li Ye is a dragon and a phoenix among men, but it is a pity that he was born at the wrong time!"
"how do I say this?"
Zhang Luanzi said slowly: "The King of Qi will continue to fight with the court, but a strong father will make a weak son. Li Ye's son cannot achieve great things. Although his father gave him half of the country, he cannot hold on. In the end, He Ceng
Fighting, both sides will suffer, and the six eastern countries will be advantaged in vain."
Zhang Luanzi said again: "Let me tell you another piece of news, Li Ye has set off to Luoyang for negotiations. This is a good opportunity to assassinate him. Let's see if the prince can seize it?"
Wei Jiansu arrived in Luoyang first. As soon as he entered Luoyang City, he was summoned to the palace by Emperor Li Heng.
Wei Jiansu bowed and saluted, "I am here to see you, Your Majesty!"
Li Heng suppressed the eagerness in his heart and said with a smile: "Wei Aiqing, thank you for your hard work. Please sit down!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Wei Jiansu sat down, and Li Heng asked urgently: "What happened at the end of the negotiation?"
"Your Majesty, the negotiations between Jingxiang and the other six states have reached a consensus, but the gap between the demands of the two sides in Guanzhong is too big, and there is no way to reach an agreement!"
"What are they asking for?"
"Your Majesty, they requested that Guanzhong be removed from the negotiation list. We did not agree. They also made it clear that the King of Qi would not make any commitments and insisted on equal rights to garrison troops."
"What do you mean?" Li Heng didn't understand for a moment.
"Your Majesty, what the other party wants is not to talk about anything and maintain the status quo. If they want to talk, they must have equal rights to garrison troops, and King Qi will not make any promises."
Li Heng's face turned ugly and he said coldly: "What does maintaining the status quo mean? He stationed 50,000 troops in Chencang. Is that to maintain the status quo?"
"Your Majesty, the attitude of King Qi is very clear. The Helong Army will definitely enter Guanzhong. The only difference is the degree of control over Guanzhong."
"What about the Guannai Road?"
Li Heng said angrily: "Do they also want to get involved?"
"Reporting to your majesty, the other party's attitude regarding the inner pass is unclear, but one thing is certain. If we deploy heavy troops at the Longshan Pass in Yuanzhou and Jingzhou, the Helong Army will also deploy heavy troops at Xiaoguan and Yanzhou. This
Liu Yan said it to me personally."
"Then what can Li Ye talk about when he comes to Luoyang? Can he make Chen Cang's army withdraw from Guanzhong?"
"Reporting to Your Majesty, some things can be understood by changing the way of thinking. For example, if there is Prince Qi's Mansion in Chang'an, and he wants to go back to live in Prince Qi's Mansion, then his army will definitely follow him. It is definitely unrealistic to prevent the army from entering the city. Chang'an has already
It is no longer the capital, and Helan Jinming has no right to deny King Qi's troops entry into the city. Once a conflict breaks out, your Majesty can imagine the consequences."
Li Heng was stunned for a long time and said, "Then what's the problem?"
"Your Majesty, the problem is that we don't have the strength to stop King Qi's army from entering the Pass. We can only rely on negotiation. But what if the negotiation fails? Is Your Majesty ready to completely fall out?"
Li Heng sat down slumped, covered his head and said, "It really gives me a splitting headache!"
Wei Jiansu was silent for a moment and said: "If your Majesty has nothing else to do, I will take my leave!"
Li Heng raised his head and sighed, "Won't Wei Aiqing give me a suggestion?"
"I'm afraid that Your Majesty won't be able to accept Wei Chen's suggestion!"
"Go ahead! I'll just listen to it, but I won't necessarily accept it."
Wei Jiansu pondered for a while and said: "The King of Qi is not a vassal like Tian Chengsi and Li Xilie. He is a member of the Tang clan. Any Tang clan has special feelings for Guanzhong. He is bound to win Guanzhong. This is something we all know.
You know very well that even if you break the rules, he will take Guanzhong, and your Majesty will either have the dignity to give up Guanzhong to him, or you will completely fall out with him."
Li Heng asked with a trembling voice: "Is he going to fall out with me?"
Wei Jiansu sighed, nodded and said: "The reason why he suddenly stationed troops in Chencang and Ruzhou is not because of negotiation and pressure, but because he is already ready to fall out. If your Majesty doesn't believe me, you can ask the Tongguan Shou.
General, how many troops did he bring across Tongguan?"
After saying this, Wei Jiansu bowed and slowly retreated, leaving Emperor Li Heng in extreme shock.
After seven days of march, Li Ye finally arrived in Luoyang.
After passing Chencang, his accompanying army added 10,000 cavalry, plus 20,000 camels to replenish food and fodder. This was a cavalry army capable of launching a battle.
In fact, Li Ye was bound to win Guanzhong. Just as Li Mi advised him not to abide by the rules too much in terms of core interests, he was already prepared for the negotiation between the two parties to break down and completely fall out.
Li Ye stationed 15,000 troops in Xin'an County. There was a large military camp in Xin'an County, which could be used to station cavalry. Xin'an County was about 80 miles away from Luoyang, and the cavalry could reach it in half a day.
Li Ye led five thousand cavalry and continued eastward, arriving at Luoyang Shendu Garden in the afternoon.
Luoyang Shendu Garden was built by Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty. It has a circumference of two hundred miles, reaching Mang Mountain in the north, Yique in the south, and entering Xin'an County in the west.
In the early Tang Dynasty, it was renamed Fanghua Garden. Wu Zetian called Luoyang the capital of the gods, so it was called Shendu Garden.
There is also an artificial lake with a circumference of more than ten miles in Shendu Garden, called Beihai. There are three islands in the sea: Penglai, Abbot, and Yingzhou. There are pavilions on the islands, and ships can travel in the sea.
The entire Shendu Garden has undulating mountains, deep rivers and forests, streams, valleys, and Luoshui River flowing through it. There is also a vast grassland to the north of Luoshui River, and a wall of two hundred miles has been built around it.
When a caravan from Chang'an comes to Luoyang, it must detour through Yique, then go north along Tianjie, and enter Luoyang through Dingding Gate.
Therefore, the prosperity outside Luoyang City is to the south. Yique is a place where the population gathers and is extremely prosperous. Going north from Yique, Tianjie is lined with various shops, restaurants, inns, and brothels.
Historically, Luoyang was brutally destroyed by the Uighur army, and the ancient capital was almost completely destroyed.
Because Li Ye successfully blocked the Uighur army from going south in the grassland, and because he entered Luoyang from the palace, Luoyang was basically not seriously damaged. After the Anshi Rebellion, it quickly regained its strength.
