"I'm afraid you have forgotten... I have been expelled from the Li clan a long time ago, so how can I be regarded as a member of the Li clan? Besides... Li Xuan and Li Feng were able to establish a country, but they did not immediately achieve peace.
Why can't I, Li Mo, stand up for the rebellion? If I really wanted to suppress the rebellion, why didn't Li Xuan's 400,000-strong army directly attack Chang'an as soon as possible?"
Hearing this, Li Mo smiled coldly.
Now it seems that the reason why Daliang took action was simply because they were angry because they couldn't get any benefits.
Daliang is far away in Hexi, with a sparse population and no rich land. There is Khitan in the north and Tubo in the south. There is no development in the middle. If you want to go east, Yan will block the way, so you can only place your hopes in Xiangyang.
On the king.
Unexpectedly, Xiangyang eventually fell into the hands of the Dragon Kingdom because of Li Feng's arrogance.
If that's the case, don't blame Dragon Kingdom for being rude.
Do you really think that with Gao Xianzhi and Li Guangbi, you can sit back and relax and cause trouble for the Dragon Kingdom casually?
"This... this matter cannot be generalized. My Majesty is the royal family's orthodoxy."
The bad handsome man was at a loss for words and didn't know how to refute Li Mo, so he could only explain forcefully.
"This way there is no need to stay!"
Li Mo glanced at Zhang Xu beside him.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Zhang Xu understood and nodded slightly.
"Wait, Li Mo, what are you going to do?"
Just a simple sentence made the bad guy completely panic. That expression and tone were trying to scare him... He was still waiting for a reaction from Daliang to save him from Ruyang. If at this time
Wouldn't it be better to be beheaded...
Unfortunately, when the bad guy spoke again, Li Mo had already turned around and walked away several steps.
"Li Mo, what are you going to do? I can tell you anything! Don't you want to know how many relatives and friends of Ruyang officials are imprisoned in Daliang?"
Seeing this, the bad handsome man suddenly became anxious and shouted.
He didn't believe that Li Mo came to Tianlao just to say such nonsense to him. There must be other purposes. Maybe the words he just said were just meant for him.
"unnecessary!"
It's a pity that Li Mo didn't even look back, and just replied lightly.
"You...Li Mo...if you kill me, Great Liang's 400,000 cavalry will definitely not let you go."
In the end, the bad handsome man didn't wait for Li Mo's response. He only waited for the cold and murderous eyes of the god of wine Zhang Xu.
"Let our Dragon Kingdom go? It's better for the 400,000 cavalrymen of Great Liang to worry about themselves first."
Poof!
The next moment, Zhang Xu took action directly.
........
Time flies, and another day passes in the blink of an eye,
Various missions have embarked on their way back home one after another. Longguo and Dayan are only separated by Hangu Tongguan. As night falls, ghost-faced counselors have arrived at the foot of Chang'an City.
His mission was very light and did not buy much from Ruyang.
It's not that he doesn't want to buy, but when he goes to buy goods from Ruyang, both the merchants and the people on the road will point at him and say,
"Isn't that the envoy of Dayan who presented the "magical thing"?"
In this way, the ghost-faced counselor could not stay any longer, so he immediately submitted the official documents and left Ruyang.
"call"
As the coachman tightened the reins, the carriage slowly stopped.
"Is the Prime Minister driving the car ahead?"
Surprisingly, the guards at the city gate seemed to have been waiting for the ghost face, and soon a commander came to greet them.
"Exactly!"
The driver nodded.
"Your Majesty has decreed that if the Prime Minister returns, he must go to the palace as soon as possible to discuss important matters."
The commander said hurriedly.
"We have something important to discuss? But something big happened in the country?"
Upon hearing this, the ghost-faced counselor in the carriage immediately lifted the curtain.
"Master Prime Minister, I don't know."
The commander shook his head. This was how he received the imperial edict.
"Okay, then let's go to the palace."
"yes!"
.......
Chang'an City is an old imperial city, not a small one. It took half an hour for the ghost-faced counselor to enter the palace and appear outside the imperial study room.
"Sir, you came just in time."
An Lushan was overjoyed when he saw the ghost face and hurriedly welcomed the ghost-faced counselor into the study without saying anything and even gave him a seat.
"Your Majesty, something important happened?"
Such movement made the ghost-faced counselor feel nervous and said hurriedly.
"There's one thing."
An Lushan nodded, and then slowly spoke,
"Just yesterday, I received a letter of credence from the Dragon Kingdom."
"Certificate of the Dragon Kingdom?"
The ghost-faced counselor frowned.
"Well, it should have been issued on the day the Dragon Kingdom was founded."
"Then what does Dragon Kingdom mean?"
"Long Guoguo said in a letter that he wanted to send troops to attack the Great Liang and use the Hangu Pass and Tongguan Pass. He also said... As long as the Great Yan can use the pass, the conditions can be improved."
An Lushan said again.
His first reaction after receiving his credentials was whether Li Mo was joking. Why did the Dragon Kingdom want to attack the Great Liang? The Great Liang had so many powerful soldiers that even the Tubo and Turks were unwilling to take the initiative to provoke them.
"Issuing letters of credence on the day of the founding of the country? Crusade against Great Liang... So that's how it is! No wonder! No wonder."
An Lushan was puzzled, but after hearing this, the ghost-faced counselor suddenly realized.
"Oh? Does the Qing family know the whole story?"
Seeing this, An Lushan asked hurriedly.
"Your Majesty, it should be like this... Before the king of Ruyang, Li Mo, was assassinated by a master. Now it seems that the assassin was sent by Great Liang, otherwise there would be no such movement in the Dragon Kingdom.
.”
The ghost-faced counselor nodded, and then explained the establishment of Ruyang in detail, including how many masters there were in Ruyang and so on.
As for the shameful matter of giving gifts, he was too embarrassed to mention it again.
"So that's it."
While pacing, An Lushan fell into deep thought. It was not until a long time later that he slowly raised his head.
"Then we will be able to lend a way to Li Mo. At the same time, we will also need to add a lot of troops to Hangu to prevent Li Mo from having weird intentions."
"Ah? Can't we borrow a way?"
The ghost face was stunned for a moment, suddenly showing a look of surprise.
In his opinion, this is definitely a great good thing for Dayan, not to mention that after borrowing the passage, Dayan can also put forward conditions to the Dragon Kingdom. Even if no conditions are mentioned, it will be beneficial to Dayan without any harm.
The Dragon Kingdom is mysterious. There are 400,000 troops in Da Liang. If the two sides fight, you will die or I will die.
The Liang Kingdom is in the west and the Dragon Kingdom is in the east. The Yan Dynasty can reap the benefits of being a fisherman, but how can it not take advantage of it and instead increase its troops to Hangu?
The goods in Ruyang are rare, and you can make a lot of money just by taking some.
In addition, if nothing else,
This move alone would arouse suspicion and dissatisfaction in the Dragon Kingdom, who thought that Dayan was helping Great Liang.
"Your Majesty... borrowing the passage will only benefit me, Dayan, and will not do any harm..."
After coming back to his senses, the ghost-faced counselor could not help but bow and persuade.
"Only good? You just said that Li Mo's city is extremely deep and the Dragon Kingdom is very mysterious and cannot be determined by common sense. What if Li Mo enters Hangu and passes through Tongguan to attack Chang'an? I can't say for sure.
This is Long Guo and Daliang acting,
After all, they are all members of the Li family."
An Lushan shook his head, his expression becoming more determined.
"Your Majesty, the minister was in the corner of Ruyang at that time. The assassination was definitely not an act..."
