The secret letter punishes the heart, and it is the heart of the emperor.

All the details are just foreshadowing, the important thing is that Li Longji can see this letter, and even this letter can be made up or unfounded, it doesn't matter what others think, the key is what Li Longji thinks.

The heart of the emperor is not so easy to fool.

If the secret letter clearly stated who to connect with, who to join forces, when to raise troops, etc., it really became a joke, and Li Longji would not believe it at all.

But if you write a bunch of names and numbers that people can't understand, the credibility is suddenly much higher.

This is the weakness of the human heart, strictly speaking, the weakness of the emperor's heart.

What is too straightforward is too fake, and what is concealed can arouse suspicion and arouse suspicion.

Gu Qing spent a lot of effort concocting this letter, a bunch of names, a string of numbers, he calculated the emperor's heart, and the doubt in Li Longji's heart finally grew like a sprout in spring, growing inexorably wildly.

It doesn't matter whether the secret letter is true or not, but Yang Guozhong's words touched the depths of Li Longji's soul.

An Lushan has 200,000 soldiers and horses.

If he had completely trusted him before, Li Longji would not have taken it seriously at all, and such a loyal courtier, even if he was allowed to master a million soldiers and horses, it would not hurt.

However, since this secret letter appeared, Li Longji thought about the 200,000 soldiers and horses in An Lushan's hands, and suddenly felt like he was on pins and needles, and he was uneasy.

Even if every word of this secret letter is fake from beginning to end, the 200,000 soldiers and horses in An Lushan's hands are really true.

Li Longji fell into deep thought, the emperor's mentality is sometimes like a jealous woman who has nothing to do, and he has to wonder if his man has a dog outside without any evidence, and his suspicion is particularly serious. What's more, there is such a fatal secret letter in hand.

Seeing that Li Longji was silent, Li Heng and Yang Guozhong quickly glanced at each other, and a flash of joy flashed in their eyes.

The two people who were originally enemies joined forces for the first time under Gu Qing's lead, and the effect was very good.

As long as the Son of Heaven is suspicious of An Lushan, the purpose of this alliance will be achieved.

Li Longji pondered for a long time and said hesitantly: "Check it...... Not unavoidable. ”

Li Heng and Yang Guozhong were overjoyed, and were just about to add fuel to the fire, when Gao Lishi played outside the hall, and An Lushan asked to see him.

Li Heng and Yang Guozhong were taken aback, Li Longji groaned, and said, "It's good to meet, I can't always listen to one side." ”

After An Lushan entered the hall, without saying a word, he lay at Li Longji's feet in a five-body throwing style and kissed Li Longji's footwear with his mouth, Li Heng and Yang Guozhong showed disgust and disdain when they saw this.

After the kiss, An Lushan suddenly opened his mouth wide and cried, crying like a child of more than 300 pounds.

"Your Majesty, the minister heard the rumors in Chang'an City early in the morning, Your Majesty, this is a traitor who wants to harm the minister, they framed Zhongliang, bullied me, a Hu man, and begged Your Majesty to be the master of the minister."

Li Longji comforted gently: "Lu'er, hurry up, I know that it is a rumor, a secret letter of unknown origin and no head and no brain can prove anything, how can I be a faint king who believes in rumors?" ”

An Lushan got up crying, but turned a blind eye to the crown prince Li Heng and Yang Guozhong standing next to him, let alone saluted.

Li Heng and Yang Guozhong's faces were angry, and they were murderous.

This fat man must be removed!

"Your Majesty, the minister no longer dares to return to Fanyang, the minister is in Chang'an as an official, in front of His Majesty's knees to do his filial piety, the military affairs of the three towns ask Your Majesty to send another good general, people are terrible, the name of the 'rebel minister' can't afford it." An Lushan was aggrieved.

Li Longji smiled: "Don't talk about children, if there is no Lu'er in the three towns, how can they guard the northern frontier?" I have always believed in your loyalty, and I will never be confused by rumors, and Lu'er will not fail me, right? ”

An Lushan raised his teary eyes, solemnly raised his hand and swore an oath: "Minister An Lushan, if there are words and deeds against the Tang Dynasty and the Heavenly Khan, he will be killed by the thunder of the sky, and he will be reduced to an animal for life and life, and he will never be a man." ”

Li Longji smiled with relief, and then said distressedly: "I have no intention of disbelief, why did Lu'er bother to make such a poisonous oath?" ”

An Lushan lowered his head and sobbed: "The minister is a vulgar martial artist, and he is a Hu man, Your Majesty is very fond of the minister, and the courtiers are jealous when they see it, and it is difficult to be compatible, so there are slanderous rumors that fall into the ears of Your Majesty, and they will be polluted by the saints." The minister is not good at words, and he is slandered by rumors, and he does not know how to show his heart......"

Li Longji said repeatedly: "I believe in you, I believe in you!" ”

Li Heng and Yang Guozhong next to him gradually turned ugly, and An Lushan's aggrieved words came out, not only showing his heart, but also secretly accusing the two of them of slandering and slandering the saints, so quickly began to fight back, this fat man is really not simple.

After Li Longji comforted An Lushan for a while, An Lushan sobbed and left.

Li Heng and Yang Guozhong were about to continue their slander, but Li Longji waved his hand tiredly, causing them to retreat.

The two looked at each other and retired.

Li Longji sat alone in the cold hall, and his body was chilled for a while.

Now with the appearance of this secret letter, Li Longji suddenly realized that there are many crises hidden under the appearance of the prosperous era, internal and external troubles are endless, and those gorgeous and luxurious prosperous times are becoming more and more blurred.

"Two hundred thousand, two hundred thousand......" Li Longji muttered with a gloomy face.

Gao Lishi quietly walked into the hall and stood quietly behind Li Longji.

"General Gao, what do you think of this secret letter?"

Gao Lishi's body trembled, and he said in a panic: "Your Majesty, the old slave doesn't dare to have an opinion. ”

This time it was not a kind word, Gao Lishi knew the seriousness of this matter, and he really didn't want to say a word more.

Li Longji smiled and sighed: "There are a lot of hidden dangers in the Tang Dynasty, the biggest hidden danger is not things, but people, people's hearts are the most difficult to guess, whether the court and the princes are loyal or treacherous, I can't see clearly, I ...... Probably old. ”

Gao Lishi was sad for a while, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty is not old, the prosperous era under Your Majesty's rule has just begun, and the prosperous times will continue for thousands of years in the future. ”

Li Longji shook his head, closed his eyes and pondered for a long time, and said slowly: "Whether that letter is true or not, the three towns of An Lushan still have to be checked, I want to know what the situation of the three towns is now, how much grain and grass, weapons and war horses have been hoarded in the three towns, and those generals who led the army, are they really replaced by Hu people?" That's all I want to know. ”

Gao Lishi said softly: "Your Majesty, the imperial court has eyeliner in all towns......"

Li Longji sneered: "Can I still believe those eyeliners?" Every year, the world is peaceful, are the towns really peaceful? ”

Gao Lishi was stunned, hanging his head and not daring to speak.

Li Longji closed his eyes and said slowly: "Send the central official of the palace to go to the three towns, go secretly, and don't show your whereabouts." ”

Colliers took the order.

After pondering for a moment, Li Longji said again: "Give An Lushan the purple brocade robe that I often wear, and comfort him on behalf of my good life." ”

…………

A secret letter set off such a big storm in Chang'an City.

As the initiator, Gu Qing's reaction was very calm.

The secret letter came from his hand, and Li Heng and Yang Guozhong's impetus was also his thread, and even Li Longji's psychological change process was in his calculations.

Thanks to the evaluation of Li Longji in the history books of his previous life, Gu Qing mastered Li Longji's psychology.

An arrogant emperor who just wants to enjoy his retirement every day after creating a prosperous world, and at the same time is very suspicious, a secret letter is enough to make him suspicious and suspicious.

The Gu family has guests in the house today.

The guests are acquaintances.

After Li Shiniang heard the news, she immediately came to Gu Qing's mansion and told Gu Qing with a happy face that An Lushan was going to be unlucky.

Gu Qing calmly arranged the wine and food, and ordered someone to take out a jar of apricot blossom wine from the cellar and pour it for Li Twelve Niang.

Seeing Gu Qing's indifferent and calm appearance, Li Twelve Niang was a little dissatisfied, how could the enemy be unhappy if he was unlucky?

However, Li Twelve Niang was not stupid after all, and after a moment of silence, she slapped the table and said suddenly: "It's you!?" ”

Gu Qing blinked innocently: "What did Aunt Li say?" What is Me? ”

"An Lushan is unlucky because of you?"

Gu Qing smiled and sighed: "What does it have to do with me? He was unlucky because he was too ostentatious, there were so many powerful courtiers in the court, and there were always people who didn't like it. ”

Li Twelve Niang snorted coldly: "No need to hide it, it's you." Chang'an City has been rumored, An Lushan's secret letter is really very fatal, if the Son of Heaven does not suspect that he has a ghost. With such a pitting layout, who else can you be? ”

Gu Qing smiled indifferently: "That secret letter can't kill An Lushan, but it can shake his loyal image in the heart of the Son of Heaven, and this image is the foundation of his world." ”

Li Twelve Niang stared at him in a daze, and sighed faintly: "It's really you ......"

Gu Qing didn't hide it, and said happily: "It's me." ”

Li Twelve Niang's eyes were full of brilliance, and she said movingly: "It is worthy of the Gu family's species, your father and mother have a son, but you can laugh at Jiuquan, you are better than them." ”

"It's just a little clever, it's nothing. If it's really stronger, Aunt Li can kill a hundred people like me alone. If you punch me, it's useless for me to come up with 10,000 ideas. Gu Qing laughed self-deprecatingly.

Li Twelve Niang shook her head stubbornly: "One plan to eliminate traitors, one plan to Anbang." This is something that 10,000 vulgar martial artists can't do, and you did it. In recent years, I have come to feel more and more that there are many things in the world that cannot be solved by force, and sometimes a literati can kill thousands of people with one word or one idea......"

"I have been thinking about it for more than ten years, which is to avenge your parents, during which I went to Fanyang Pinglu many times to assassinate An Lushan, but I couldn't do anything, for which I even sacrificed the lives of more than ten disciples, but it was still in vain, I didn't expect it...... You just compiled a secret letter, and you shook the foundation of An Lushan, how small I am in comparison......"

Li Twelve Niang's expression gradually darkened, she suddenly realized that she had been doing a meaningless thing all these years, paying so much effort and hard work, and taking so much risk, but she couldn't resist Gu Qing's idea.

Gu Qing comforted Wen Yan: "Jing Ke stabbed Qin, although he was defeated, he was still glorious. Although defeated, the singing of the send-off by the Yishui River left the seeds of hope for the relics of the Six Kingdoms, and Qin II died precisely because the hearts of the people in the world cannot be bullied. ”

"In the same way, rebellious ministers and thieves must not deceive the people of the world, and those who should surface will definitely surface, sooner or later."
