Chapter 238 Plotting Bashu
"The child heard that there are also people in Shu who sell colored glass, but it is the people of the Wenxi Pei family who sell it." Li Shimin arched his hand and said.
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but turn their eyes to Pei Lin on the side.
At this time, Pei Lin was even more stunned, his face was dazed, obviously he didn't know the news, he waited for a while, came back to his senses, and hurriedly said: "Lord Mingjian, my subordinates don't know!" It's not even clear who in the Pei family is in Jinyang. ”
"After the Jiangdu Incident, Pei Shiqing and Laijia Laihong, Laijia and the two brothers, with a group of people, went to Jinyang from the waterway." Li Yuan said.
Because everyone focused on Yu Wenhua and his body, naturally not many people paid attention to escaping a few people who were not very famous, and Li Yuan also forgot about it later, and now that he talks about it, he remembered such a news.
"The Pei family didn't talk about this news to their subordinates at all." Pei Lin said angrily and bitterly.
The people of the family choose to serve, generally speaking, as long as it is not related to the survival of the family, they generally will not communicate with each other, after all, this is a taboo for the superior! It's just such a money-making thing, and it is a little distressing not to say a word.
Li Jiancheng, as the son of the world, of course, is most valued, Pei Lin and his personal relationship is also very good, Li Jiancheng once again gave his hand to help and said: "Not only Shuzhong, Yangzhou, Jingxiang, Longyou, it is said that there are people selling glass, the Wang family, the Wen family, there are people selling." ”
"Hey! What a big deal! Zou Changfeng, this is to collect the wealth of the world! I'm not afraid to die! Li Yuan finally understood, sneered, and said jealously.
"They are not afraid of causing disgust in the world?" Lu Chisong asked strangely.
"No, no, they are very restrained, they only sell a little in one place a month, of course, maybe it has something to do with the production, after all, such a delicate thing is definitely not so easy to make. And their prices are getting lower! Li Jiancheng shook his head and said.
"The autumn harvest is just around the corner, or let's talk about what's next? We can't just keep moving, so let's wait, right? Li Yuan asked.
"At present, the South Xiao Milling, Yu Culture and, Du Fuwei; Nearby Wagang Li Mi, Luoyang Wang Shichong, Hebei Dou Jiande, Jinyang Zou Changfeng, these forces are not weak, if they fight one by one, not to mention whether they can fight or not, the key is what year and month the time will go, so the subordinates suggest outwitting. Pei Lin touched his beard and said.
"How to outwit?" Li Yuan's eyes lit up and he hurriedly asked.
"There are many forces, but only by sowing discord and letting them fight each other, cranes and mussels can the fishermen benefit." Pei Lian explained.
Pei Gong is reasonable, but how to provoke a fight? Can there be a goal? Li Jiancheng nodded and said.
Pei Lin knew that Li Jiancheng had good intentions, but he didn't have a specific plan, so how could he continue. But after saying that, I had to continue to talk about it.
"The subordinates thought that they still had to make a fuss from Wang Shichong and Li Mi, after all, the two had been fighting for so long, and the contradictions were irreconcilable."
"It's not proper, it's not proper, Yu Wenhua will definitely go north, if at this time, Li Mi and Wang Shichong fight, wouldn't it be cheaper Yu Wenhua." Li Shimin shook his head and retorted.
"What does Jiro think should be done?" Li Yuan still believed in his son more, turned his head, and asked with concern.
"Over there in Luoyang, just wait and see what happens, and at a critical time, you can also help Li Mi drag Wang Shichong and let him deal with Yu Wenhua with peace of mind. Our main focus is still to take Shuzhong, there is no big force in Shuzhong at present, and we can take it in one fell swoop. With the land of Sichuan and Shu in hand, if you attack Jiangnan in the future, you can also attack in two ways! Li Shimin said.
"This is a plan that has been set before, of course it must be continued, I am asking for other forces, such as Jinyang!" Li Yuan said unhappily.
"Jinyang's side, it's best not to provoke them." Li Shimin shook his head and said.
Why is that? Do you just watch them develop, you must know that Tongguan is there, but it threatens us at any time. Li Yuan said a little angrily.
"Back to my father, Zou Changfeng of Jinyang fought Liaodong, Goguryeo, and Turkic, and his subordinates were all soldiers of a hundred battles, and their combat power was extraordinary. They have to defend too many places and therefore don't have the energy to attack others, and that's for the best. Li Shimin explained.
What he meant was that it was a hard bone, there was no need to provoke it, it really provoked a fire, and sent troops to give himself a ruthless one, and I don't know who was uncomfortable.
"Do you just let it go?" Li Yuan said unwillingly. For Zou Yu, he hated it the most, not only occupied Jinyang, the place where he raised his troops, but also robbed Yang Yu.
You must know that people nowadays are very superstitious, and the place where the army rises, generally called the land of Longxing, was occupied by Zou Yu Jinyang, which is a pimple in Li Yuan's heart.
Yang Guang inexplicably gave him a Tang king, even if he knew that Yang Guang was disgusting him, he had to admit it, and now that Yang Guang was dead, of course he transferred his anger to Zou Yu.
Li Yuan is called the King of Qi, which is also what Xiangshi said, in order to make up for the fate of being destroyed, it is better to call Qin according to the territory. There is another reason, because Jincheng Xue Ju founded the country in Longxi and is called Western Qin.
"It's better to let it go, after all, the secluded land is sparsely populated, which limits his development, as the so-called enemy does not move, I do not move." Li Shimin nodded and said.
"Alas!" Seeing that his son and confidants were all of this opinion, Li Yuan sighed in frustration.
"You can't attack them, but you can target them from the outside!" Li Shimin continued.
"Oh!"
"Shuofang Liang Shidu, Hebei Dou Jiande, plus us, can completely block them, whether it is grain and grass, or materials, as long as they don't flow in, see how they develop!" Li Shimin stretched out his hand and made a surrounding motion.
"This method is good, it is a bitter cold place, the product is not abundant, Liaodong is even colder, the grain has not been produced much, there is no food, how can they develop, do they learn from the Turks, go to herd sheep?" Pei Lin said with a happy smile.
"Haha! Herding sheep, you can figure it out! Listening to Pei Lianyi's words, thinking of Zou Yu's appearance of leading people to graze, Li Yuan couldn't help but laugh happily.
"Liu Wenjing is good at lobbying, let him send Liang Shidu, and Dou Jiande will go to Tang Jian!" Li Yuan thought for a moment and said.
"The prince (father) is wise!" Several people hurriedly offered their sycophants.
"Shuzhong should also be taken as soon as possible, and don't attract the attention of others, Erlang is fully responsible for this matter!" Li Yuan continued.
"The child obeys!" Li Shimin gave up his hand, and then continued: "Cousin Xiaogong went from Jinzhou to Bazhong from Daba Mountain, and took Bazhou; Zhan Jun captured Chengdu, and good news is about to come soon. ”
"Shuzhong Qin, Huang, Liu Zhang, the four major families, have all expressed their willingness to return to obedience, and it is also extremely beneficial to govern in the future!" Li Jiancheng said with a smile.
"Take Shuzhong, this king can give a breath!" Li Yuan sighed.
Although Li Yuan occupies most of the pass, there are enemies on all sides, so it can be said that he has been worried, and the most important thing is that there is no food base! Simply Guanzhong, he can't afford to raise hundreds of thousands of soldiers, and with the country of abundance, this grain producing area, he has confidence in his heart.
Solving the big trouble in his heart, Li Yuan became happy and let a few people leave.
"Big brother, people from the family, be more careful." At the gate of the palace, Li Shimin hesitated and said.
"Save for my brother!" Li Jiancheng said with a hint of gloom flashing in his eyes. Originally, Li Jiancheng was good friends with various families, but recent events gave him a wake-up call.
Lu Chisong of the Lu family, Wang Gui of the Wang family, Wang Tong, Pei of the Pei family, all have a good relationship with him, but he didn't receive any news about the glass mirror, and he still sent someone to investigate the problem he discovered. This made him feel a little tired in his heart.
This person, once there is distrust, it is difficult to be intimate again.
"Militarily a brother is not as good as you, Shuzhong action, the people of the world, you pay more attention, lose the state, this is our foundation in the future, there is no room for loss." Li Jiancheng reminded.
"Little brother understands!" Li Shimin nodded, and the two brothers said goodbye.
Since the Taiyuan army, the two brothers have their own power, and they have their own small groups around them.
Although they didn't say it, the two brothers also knew in their hearts that there was a gap between them, and they couldn't tell why, but they didn't go back to the past, but although the two brothers began to fight for power for themselves, they had not yet reached the opposite goal.
Thinking all the way, Li Shimin returned to his Dunhuang mansion. In the study, several people were already waiting.
"Second son, the prince summoned you over, did something happen?" Liu Wenjing asked.
"It's just that after discussing the next action, I'm afraid that Brother Liu needs to go to Shuofang and his party!" Li Shimin introduced the matter of entering the palace, and then said to Liu Wenjing.
"The subordinate obeys!" Liu Wenjing did not shirk and gave up.
"As expected, the glass mirror flowed out of Jinyang, and I got the news that there are dozens of caravans from Jinyang to various places every month!
Now under our rule, in every county, there are people selling glass utensils! Li Shimin's brother-in-law, the chubby eldest grandson Wuji, said with a light fist.
"Can someone pretend to be robbers and rob them?" Liu Hongji, whose left arm was no longer able to move, said with a hint of resentment flashing in his eyes.
"No! Not to mention how much you can get by grabbing once, first of all, this will offend the family and set up enemies in vain, and this is made by themselves, and next time they will change places, which will have little impact on them. Du Ruhui, who was thin and had eyes in his eyes, hurriedly stopped.
"That's true, now the price of glass is not high or low, and it is not very useful to grab it." Li Shimin nodded in agreement.
