Chapter 447: Monopoly of power
Li Yan closed his eyes and leaned on the bed, with a handkerchief tied to his forehead, his face was pale, and he couldn't even see a trace of blood on his lips. Prince Li Ke's eyes were red and swollen, and he stood in front of the bed with his hands down.
In the room, Li Ze, Zhang Hui, Xue Ping, Tian Lingzi, Qin Zhao, Han Qi, and Gao Lei all sat silently.
There was a dead silence in the room.
After a long time, Li Yan finally opened his eyes slowly, and his eyes fell on Li Ze's body.
Li Ze clenched his fists and bowed slightly: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Your ......Minister"
"The past is gone, it's gone, there's no need to mention it again." Li Yan waved his hand and said, but his voice was extremely low. "General, the queen has a will, I wonder if the general is willing to take on the responsibility of teaching the prince?"
"Thanks to Your Majesty's value and Niangniang's trust, I am willing to take on this responsibility." Li Ze turned his head to look at Li Ke: "I just don't know if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is willing?" First of all, I want to explain that the way I teach my students is probably not the same as that of other teachers. ”
"The students are willing." Li Ke took a step forward, clenched his hands into fists, and slammed them to the ground.
Li Ze sat on the chair, but he received this great gift. This is a gift from teachers and students, and he does not have to avoid it, but must accept it.
"The prince's apprenticeship is a major event of the country, so it can't be so hasty, but today, it can only be simplified because of ugliness, and please don't care about it!" Li Yan said: "Ke'er was originally just enlightened, and since she has studied with the general in the future, how to teach it is the general's business." ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your trust." Li Zedao.
"The crown prince is still young, and the general is also prosperous, in this Tang world, there are too many places that need to rely on the general, so I am also ready to appoint Xue Ping and the prince of the East Palace to wash the horse, does the general think it is okay?" Li Yan continued.
Before Li Ze could speak, Xue Ping had already stood up, bowed down and said, "The minister is edicted." ”
After saying this, he turned his head to look at Li Ze.
Li Ze smiled and nodded: "Xue Shilang is loyal, and his own knowledge is also excellent, and this position is just right, but it also allows me to save a lot of thoughts, and I can fight for rebellion for His Majesty more and revive the Tang Dynasty." ”
"Good, good!" Li Yan nodded expressionlessly.
"That being the case, after all the things here are completed, the minister will invite His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to walk with the minister, read thousands of books, it is better to travel thousands of miles, this time is the time of the war, the minister has more leisure time, you might as well let His Royal Highness the Prince follow the minister's side, take a good look, think about it, the minister also has time to tell the prince how to teach the minister in the future, how His Royal Highness the prince should learn, I don't know what Your Majesty thinks?" Li Ze sat down again and asked.
Li Yan was stunned, and before he could speak, Han Qi Huo Ran had already stood up and said loudly: "The minister is against it." ”
Li Ze smiled slightly and looked at Han Qi: "I don't know why Han Shuai is opposed?" ”
"Although Luzhou is now besieged, there are still tens of thousands of enemies in Luzhou, but after a hundred battles, the general must command the battle, and the place where the soldiers are fierce and dangerous, how can His Royal Highness the Crown Prince stay? If there is any accident, can the general bear this responsibility? Han Qi meant something authentic.
"The enemy of Luzhou, in my opinion, is just a local chicken and a dog, if you want to break it, why is it difficult? Han Shuai couldn't help but think too highly of them. Li Ze said lightly: "Besides, when I command the battle, I have always only commanded my subordinates where to fight, but I never care how they fight." There is no need for me to go to the front line to brave the arrows and stones, beating drums and cheering. ”
"I know, now in this world, I'm afraid that the general's side is the safest place." Li Yan stopped Han Qi and said, "Since the general said so, let's do it!" ”
"Please allow me to accompany the prince as well." Xue Ping said.
"Xue Shilang is the prince washing horses in the East Palace, so naturally it is okay. However, since Xue Shilang has gone, he can't be idle, and other things have to be done. Li Ze said with a smile.
"This is natural."
"Your Majesty." After agreeing on this matter, Li Ze turned to Li Yan on the bed again, and said: "The battle of Luzhou, at least in January, and at most in March, will inevitably be resolved, and at that time, Your Majesty can move Wuwei, I don't know where Your Majesty wants to stay at that time?" ”
"Didn't the general arrange it?" Li Yan was a little strange.
"Naturally, it is necessary to follow His Majesty's advice. However, judging from the current situation of my Wuwei, the minister thinks that there are two places that His Majesty can give priority, one is Wuyi, and the other is Zhenzhou. ”
Zhenzhou is the nest of Li Ze's Laozi Li Anguo for many years, and Wuyi is Li Ze's base camp, and it is also the current Wuwei Festival Town, no matter where it is, it is the most deep-rooted place of Li Ze's power.
Li Yan pondered in his heart for a moment: "Then it's in Zhenzhou." ”
"Well, after the minister goes down, he will let the direction of Zhenzhou prepare another palace for His Majesty, and as soon as the war in Luzhou is over, His Majesty can go to Zhenzhou to settle down."
Li Yan nodded.
"Your Majesty is in poor health, and you still need to take care of your health, and the minister has summoned Jin Yuan, a famous doctor in Zhenzhou, and others to treat Your Majesty. The minister is not suspicious of the imperial doctor's medical skills, but one more person, always one more thought, one more thought, maybe can make His Majesty's body recover as soon as possible. On that day, His Majesty and the minister talked about the world on the Panzhou Lake, and the minister still remembered it vividly. Zhenzhou also has good water and good scenery, and the minister looks forward to being able to discuss politics with His Majesty again as soon as possible! Li Zedao.
Li Yan's eyes lit up sharply, but they dimmed again.
"The general has a heart. I'm a little tired, and the next thing will be discussed by the general! ”
Hearing this, everyone stood up, bowed to Li Yan, and then exited the room one by one.
Everyone changed rooms, but it was Li Ze who sat at the top.
Li Yan's seemingly casual words handed over the entire government power to Li Ze. Although in fact, it is Li Ze who is now in control of the overall situation, but there is such a sentence, which gives Li Ze an upright endorsement, so that he can justifiably control the entire government.
Even if the current imperial court is just a small imperial court in a corner of peace, it is not even a small imperial court, because all the horses in the imperial court are still in Chang'an, and they have all fallen into the hands of Zhu Wen.
Everything has to be restarted, but this is exactly what Li Ze wants.
There are two things at hand.
One is the burial of the queen.
The second is the offensive and defensive of Luzhou.
No matter when, the death of the queen is a major event of the country, but here, everything is simplified. Li Ze's mother also did a dojo for 7749 days, but the queen didn't even have this treatment. It took less than a cup of tea to talk about the queen's funeral.
Li Ze's excuse is very simple and very real. It is precisely because of the empress's noble status that she can only be buried from Jian now, and only after defeating Zhu Wen and returning to Chang'an, can she handle this matter in a big way.
The people present were speechless.
Even if they wanted to bury the queen in style, the current conditions would not allow it at all.
After saying the first thing, everyone's attention turned to the second thing.
Take Luzhou.
This is the top priority, which is related to the future of everyone in the room, and it is in everyone's interest. Even Han Qi, who was indignant in his heart, and Gao Lei, who was nervous, all pricked up their ears at this moment.
"Capturing Luzhou is not a difficult task now. Xue Shilang has done a lot of work before this, and many people in Luzhou have already chosen us, in other words, we are in Luzhou, and now we have internal responses. Li Ze said with a smile.
"Jieshuai, so many things have happened in Huguan during this time, in Luzhou, there will be no unheard, and now Zhu Wen has taken Chang'an, and his general Cao Huan has led the Tianping Army out of Tongguan and is marching towards Zhaoyi, Xuanwu is even more large-scale mobilization, and then it will inevitably send troops to Zhaoyi, and rescuing Luzhou has become their top priority, in this form, those who promised us will not fulfill their promises now, but it is difficult to say." Xue said with a flat face.
Xue Ping's complaints are overflowing, if Li Ze attacked Luzhou as soon as possible, those people might have surrendered, and Luzhou must have been in the bag at this time, but because of the death of Mrs. Wang, Li Ze was alive and motionless in Huguan for more than a month, which led to a great change in the form of the world, and the current situation, can it still be compared with that day?
"Xue Shilang is too worried." Li Zedao: "These days, my people are not idle, and they have already reconnected the threads that Xue Shilang delayed, so in this matter, Xue Shilang can rest assured." As for Zhu Wen's reinforcements, hehe, they are what I am waiting for. ”
"What do you mean by that?" Xue Ping was taken aback and asked.
"It's simple. Because if we take Luzhou too early, Zhu Wen will not rush to the rescue, but will take good care of Chang'an Luoyang, and will not march in a big way until everything is ready, at that time, we still have a big battle to fight with them in Luzhou. But now, Zhu Wen has not yet gained a firm foothold, so he sent a large army to rescue Luzhou, which looks good, but for us this is the best opportunity, so what I want is to seize this opportunity, not only to take Luzhou, but also to fight Zhu Wen within three or five years, and never dare to look at Luzhou again. Li Ze sneered.
"You, you ......" Xue Ping Huoran stood up and pointed at Li Ze: "It turns out that the commander has already planned to send troops to Luzhou, is he waiting for this moment?" ”
"Or else?" Li Ze squinted at Xue Ping: "Xue Shilang doesn't really think that I can't move forward and don't enter Huguan, just to force the queen to death and deter you, so that I can monopolize power and plot against you, right?" ”
Li Zehuo Ran stood up, glared at everyone angrily, and watched everyone in the room hang their heads, before he sneered and said: "Say something that shouldn't be said, with your current strength, I want to monopolize power and plot against me, do you still need this?" What do I want to do, but what do I do? ”
Everyone was terrified.
"Those who know my heart say I am worried, and those who don't know me say what I want!" Li Ze dropped this sentence and walked out of the door with his head held high. "Everyone, let's wait for the military order! Speaking of the front, those who miss the military plane will be killed! ”
