Chapter 780: The General Trend (7)
On the matter of whether Li Po can enter Chang'an City, Li Jing is very sure, what he thinks is similar to others, Chang'an City is not a city that can hold on to and wait for help.
Luoyang is not, it's just that Li Mi participated in Yang Xuangan's rebellion, and the Luoyang people who will die because of Yang Xuangan can be said to be countless, from nobles to commoners, a large number of people were confused by Yang Xuangan and joined his team, and finally ended up in ruins.
It can be said that Yang Xuangan, who is very talented and sparse, and Li Mi, who can come up with some bad ideas, have dealt a heavy blow to the people in Kansai and Luoyang.
You see what the situation was at that time, Yang Guangzheng led the army to conquer Liaodong, Luoyang was very empty, Chang'an was also very empty, Yang Xuangan waved his arms, and the disciples of the gate valve heard the sound of the scene, it is said that the people who came to work under Yang Xuangan were on the way, because everyone wanted to drive the crazy Yang Guang down as soon as possible.
It's just that everyone didn't expect this to be a big pit, and the pit is very big, and countless souls have been buried.
Li Mi is not only a pit digger, but later he also joined a gang like the Wagang Army, and the people of Luoyang hate him very much, and his hatred is even higher than Zhai Rang, who desperately besieged Luoyang.
So although Wang Shichong is not a good thing, in contrast, the people of Luoyang are more willing to contribute to Wang Shichong than the bullshit Duke Wei.
In addition, there is plenty of grain and grass in the Luoyang warehouse, so Luoyang, which could not be defended, created a miracle, and was attacked by Li Mi and others.
Will Chang'an be the same as Luoyang? Reality tells people that it is difficult to find a second one for someone like Li Mi.
………………………………
The commotion in Chang'an lasted for some days, and at the beginning, Chang'an Ling, the generals of the various guards, and the defenders of Chang'an were still dutiful, and they ran around the city like firefighters.
But as time passed, rumors spread in the city...... All sorts of rumors began to spread in the city's mansions? The aristocrats are meeting in private? Ways and means are being discussed to meet the worst that is to come.
Is it appropriate to describe the situation as an undercurrent? Ordinary people close their doors? There is not much food at home, and they are all anxious? Some city fox society rats, taking the opportunity to make trouble? It makes people even more panicked.
The riot in Mayi County back then? Some details seem to be playing out in Chang'an......
The big court meeting has been stopped for a few days, but the small court meeting is more and more diligent.
The important ministers of the court were called to the palace one by one to speak, and Li Yuan's face once again put on a "Tang Gong" smile, since he became the emperor? But I haven't laughed like this in a long time.
It's just how many hearts can be won over? Even he knew it.
The reason why the Duke of Tang was able to invite people to buy people's hearts was because he never easily embarrassed people, just like when Emperor Wen of Sui and Yang Jian did not ascend the throne.
But once he becomes the emperor, many resentful things will inevitably have to be done, is this the case with the Yang family? The same is true for Lee.
Before Yang Jian ascended the throne, everyone thought he was an honest man? The one raised by a nun must also be a kind-hearted person? The people of the Yuwen family are too cruel and cruel, and it is estimated that it will be better to change the surname Yang.
But what did Yang Jian do after he became emperor? Would anyone still think that taciturn? Is Yang Dalang, who is quite wooden, a person who is easy to bully?
What happened to those who had elected him? How many of them ended well? Even if there is? His sons have also been cleaned up.
Li Yuan is no different, once the benevolent and generous Tang Duke becomes the emperor, his face will become a few points faster than Yang Jian.
During the day, he summoned too many people, said too many things, and thought too many things, the most important thing was that Li Ding'an's thief finally led the army to Chang'an City......
Li Yuan was very panicked, the fear that he had never felt before was spreading in his heart, and he even remembered what the people in the Yang family were thinking when he went south to Chang'an?
In the evening, news continued to come, such as that the enemy army under the city was not attacking the city, but was making some siege equipment.
Hmph, he, Li Yuan, is not ignorant of military affairs, how can the few men and horses brought by Li Ding'an be able to capture Chang'an City? If that bit of people can perform the work, wouldn't Yang Jian's father and son have to jump out of the grave angrily?
Li Ding'an is just waiting for some people in the city to come out of the city, if not, after three or two months, Chang'an can still be self-defeating, the grain and grass in the city is not as much as Luoyang back then, and the number of people in Chang'an City is not comparable to Luoyang.
…………………………………………
Late at night, the weather is slightly overcast, and it has entered early summer, and the night breeze in the north finally brings a little warmth, which makes people feel very comfortable.
Li Yuan, who was sleepy, returned to the dormitory, and the trembling palace people served the emperor who was in a bad mood and did not belong to the gods, and did not dare to make a mistake.
At this time, the emperor's concubines will not appear here without an edict, the enemy army is besieging the city, and the atmosphere in the palace is much stranger than outside, because the palace wall surrounds them, and it also surrounds people's hearts......
Once the enemy army enters the city, it is not the same as the people outside, and the lives of the palace people may depend on the words of the new master, and the more favored by the old lord at this time, it is estimated that the more miserable the end will be.
The night in the palace was quiet, but there was a wisp of fireworks with incense more than usual, and it was the palace people who were burning incense and praying for peace.
Although many of them are from noble backgrounds, and their families are all famous nobles in Chang'an, there are few who can shelter the palace people at this time.
Because from the moment they entered the palace, their life and death honor and disgrace were linked to this palace city.
In fact, the same is true for Emperor Li Yuan, if Li Yuan dares to leave the palace at this time, many people will think that he is going to escape, and the four gates of Chang'an City may be opened immediately......
Li Yuan was very tired, his already somewhat rickety back collapsed a lot, his face was gray, his eyes were cloudy, but from time to time there was a trace of coldness...... There seems to be an ominous aura all over the body.
Li Yuan didn't come back alone, and after a lot of conversations and transactions, he kept his friends by his side.
But his friend didn't feel as honored as usual, Pei Lin regretted a little at this time, he shouldn't have come to the palace today to inquire about the situation, and he was still around the emperor at this time, which in itself meant an increase in risk.
The palace people lightly changed the two of them into civilian clothes, warmed the wine and served the dishes according to Li Yuan's instructions, and they all withdrew without even leaving a palace maid.
Li Yuan rubbed the wine jug, looked at Pei Lin with his eyes, as if he didn't look at him, Pei Lian's heart was shocked, and even his mouth, which was usually very neat, was not easy to use, and he didn't pop out a word for a long time.
Suddenly, Li Yuan seemed to think of something, the muscles on his face twitched twice, and he laughed out loud.
Pei Lin was trembling, almost didn't jump up from the couch, and his soul flew out halfway.
Li Yuanwu didn't realize it, poured himself a glass of wine, and then said quietly: "I have been wandering around for half my life, and I have only stayed in Chang'an for a long time...... But the people here are all tigers and wolves, and after getting along with tigers and wolves for a long time, people also have the heart of tigers and wolves...... Hehe......"
Pei Lin tried his best to pull the withdrawn soul back into his body, and listened patiently, he knew Li Yuan's temperament very well, and knew that it was best not to speak at this time, just listen.
But Li Yuan's appearance ...... made him very worried, Li Yuan had intersected with him since he stayed in Jinyang, and along the way, from Jinyang to Chang'an, he Pei Lin simply witnessed the whole process of Li Yuan's rise and participated closely in it.
What kind of person Li Yuan is, he knows too well, he was born in a big lord, and he has been a relative of the emperor since he was a child, even if his father died early, no one dares to despise him.
may be precisely because of this, Li Yuan treats people very measuredly, and there are not many Kansai people who are domineering, but that is just the appearance, this person is actually very proud, and he is also very stubborn, he loves to listen to flattery, but he doesn't like others to show that kind of insincere look.
In other words, it's true that you love to listen to good words, but if your sycophant is too obvious, in his eyes, it will be frivolous Meng Lang, and the sycophant is not in place, then you are afraid that you will be on the horse's legs.
No matter how Li Yuan disguised himself, in fact, this was a typical Kansai aristocrat.
Kansai nobles intersect with people, they can talk about their ambitions, they can talk about beauties, they can comment on the heroes of the world, etc., etc., but they generally don't confide in you, which will expose their weakness, and a weak Kansai nobleman will not survive.
Li Yuan in front of him was like this, Pei Lin looked at him, and unconsciously four words appeared in his heart, the end of the road.
Li Yuan is indeed very wrong, there is no invitation to drink, Li Yuan's nagging is all old things, not very big, trivial, he will never hear these from Li Yuan's mouth in the past, as he spoke, he drank wine continuously.
I don't know if I drank too quickly, or if I just wanted to get drunk, anyway, Li Yuan, who had a very good amount of alcohol, quickly became hazy.
But Pei Lin became more and more nervous, and the gaffe emperor was more dangerous than usual, but he didn't dare to go, and he didn't even dare to go up to give Li Yuan a cup as usual.
In a trance, Pei Lin even thought that when Yang Guang spent his last days in the Jiangdu Palace, did he also want to be intoxicated with some past events like the Supreme in front of him?
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look at the door, would there also be a group of wolf-like guards Xiaoguo, and took out a three-foot white silk......
Pei Lin couldn't help but feel a little sad, he was originally a sentimental person, but he entered Chang'an, which was full of tigers and wolves, so he was also contaminated with some tiger and wolf spirit, and he was no longer so easy to be sad.
But now that he looked at Li Yuan's appearance, his heart was cold, whether it was for Li Yuan or for himself, his eyes gradually became sour, so he also drank cup by cup.
