Chapter 670: Plotting against Li Shiji
Qin Hui's words seemed to be a shock, causing Li Jiancheng's body to tremble a few times unconsciously.
"Lord Qin, what do you mean by this?"
Zheng Jibo said with an unkind face. Although he is Li Jiancheng's father-in-law, his status in the East Palace cannot be compared with Qin Hui, who has already entered the phase, and he is not jealous of Qin Hui's status for a day or two.
Zheng Jibo's thoughts can't hide from the treacherous and cunning Qin Hui, but Qin Hui doesn't take Zheng Jibo in his eyes at all. is also worthy of being his opponent of Qin Hui?
At that moment, he just snorted coldly and said, "Perhaps, as Lord Zheng said, Your Majesty has a lot of reliance on His Highness. I don't know if Lord Zheng has thought about it, now that the military power is in the hands of His Royal Highness the King of Qin, even if His Majesty passes the throne to His Royal Highness in the future, what should His Royal Highness the King of Qin do not allow to raise troops to make trouble? ”
"Your Majesty's decree has been issued, who dares to commit rebellion?" Zheng Jibo shouted sharply.
Qin Hui sneered and said, "Now that Your Majesty's dragon body is healthy, the generals will naturally put Your Majesty's will first. But at that time, will His Majesty's will still be able to bind the generals? Will the generals be inclined to the crown prince in their hearts, or the King of Qin, who has been fighting with them on the battlefield and being born and died? ”
Qin Hui's words can be said to be very straightforward, now that Li Yuan is still alive, Li Yuan's holy decree is indeed more effective than Li Shimin. But once Li Yuan returns to heaven, Li Jiancheng will sit in the court for a long time, away from the military, even if Li Yuan passes the throne to Li Jiancheng, it is unknown whether the hundreds of thousands of soldiers in Guanzhong will obey Li Yuan's will or Li Shimin who is alive.
Li Jiancheng came to his senses a little, and a few drops of cold sweat slowly flowed down his forehead, proving the panic in his heart.
Liu Zhiyuan also spoke: "Not only the twelve guards of Guanzhong, but also the general Chai Rong of Bingzhou also followed His Royal Highness the King of Qin to conquer Zhao Kuangyin, and Li Guangbi of Hexi followed His Royal Highness the King of Qin to pacify the Liang Shidu, it is said that the relationship between the two sides is also very harmonious, and Li Shiji in Hanzhong is the sworn friend of the King of Qin, even in the Imperial Forest Army, Duan Zhixuan, the deputy general who is actually in charge of the military horses, is also the old department of the King of Qin, and the general of the Tang Dynasty, there is no one who can be used by His Royal Highness, and His Royal Highness should pay attention to this matter." ”
Listening to what the most trusted Yiwen and Yiwu said, Li Jiancheng's heart became more and more uneasy, and he immediately asked Liu Zhiyuan: "How is the training of military horses in Dingguo?" ”
Li Jiancheng did not have no power in the military, and the 30,000 troops stationed outside Chang'an City were directly under Li Jiancheng's army.
The predecessor of this 30,000-strong army was the old Song Jiang army recruited by Li Jiancheng from Qingzhou. At the beginning, Chang'an City was attacked and broken by the Sui army, although Long Zhi soon retreated, but the shadow of the capital was broken has been pressed on Li Yuan's heart, and Li Jiancheng led the army back at this time, Li Yuan immediately classified Li Jiancheng's troops into the Chang'an City Defense Army series, led by Li Jiancheng's henchman cousin Li Dingguo.
Hearing Li Jiancheng's question, Liu Zhiyuan sighed helplessly and said: "Back to Your Highness, although General Dingguo has practiced with all his heart, Song Jiang was almost swept away as a soldier in Qingzhou at the beginning, and the soldiers are uneven, and I am afraid it will be difficult to be of great use in a short period of time." ”
"And these soldiers left Qingzhou and came to Guanzhong with their families, but the imperial court has not solved the problem of resettlement of small families, and the soldiers will inevitably have some complaints about the imperial court, and they will do things a little." Wei Zheng sighed helplessly, and did not say any more with a somewhat embarrassed expression.
"Chang'an was broken, Guanzhong was shaken, and the government was a little busy, but the resettlement of the small family was indeed a little delayed. Qin Xiangguo, in the past few days, you will urge Pei Xiangguo and ask the household department to hurry up and complete this matter. ”
Li Jiancheng told Qin Hui a few words, and then asked Liu Zhiyuan: "I heard in this palace that His Royal Highness King Qin has an elite division in his hands, all of which are carefully selected warriors from the army, all of whom can be used as ten, called Xuanjia Army, I don't know if it's true or not?" ”
"It's true!"
Liu Zhiyuan said in a deep voice: "General Dingguo saw the Xuanjia Army drill on the school field a few months ago. After reading it, he once said that even if 30,000 city defense troops swarmed up, only 3,000 Xuanjia troops could be defeated. ”
Li Jiancheng's face had turned pale, and his heart was full of fear at this moment. As Qin Hui and Liu Zhiyuan said, the military forces of the Tang Dynasty, hundreds of thousands of troops, are almost under the control of Li Shimin, and what he can rely on is that even Li Shimin's 3,000 Xuanjia army can't stop it, even if Li Yuan passes the throne to him in the future, can he really do it steadily?
"What can I do? What can I do? Li Jiancheng muttered involuntarily.
"Your Highness, for the sake of the future, Weichen thinks that His Highness should also cultivate some henchmen in the army, this time to cut down Shu, His Highness has to arrange people to go south together no matter what." Qin Hui immediately made a suggestion to Li Jiancheng.
Li Jiancheng shook his head, "The second brother is the commander of the whole army, if the position of the sent general is low, I am afraid that it will be difficult to make contributions, but if the heavy general is sent south with the second brother, I am afraid that my father will not agree." ”
Qin Hui smiled slightly and said, "Your Highness, rest assured, Weichen is already fully sure." As long as His Highness sees the entourage brought by Weichen today, he will understand everything. ”
Li Jiancheng was stunned in his heart, secretly thinking about who could make Qin Hui so confident, so he immediately waved his hand and ordered someone to bring Qin Hui's entourage.
After a while, I saw a tall and straight strong man walk in, and the momentum exuded by the strong man made Liu Zhiyuan, who was born as a military general, tremble.
"The last general, Tian Zaibiao, see His Highness!"
In the sound of full energy, Tian Zaibiao slowly saluted Li Jiancheng.
Li Jiancheng recalled for a while, and suddenly lost his voice and said: "Tian Zaibiao? Are you Tian Zaibiao, filial piety's henchman Tian Zaibiao? Didn't Li Shiji and Li Longji say that you were already dead in battle? How so? ”
"His Royal Highness the Prince, when the Hanzhong was recovered, General Tian Zaibiao accidentally killed Chen Xuanli, a henchman of His Royal Highness King Changguang, and His Royal Highness the King of Changguang held a grudge and declared a personal vendetta, forcing General Tian to attack Jianmen Pass alone and refused to send troops to rescue, thanks to General Tian's strong martial arts, he escaped by luck." Qin Hui explained in a low voice.
"Li Longji is bold!"
Li Jiancheng couldn't help but shout angrily, Tian Zaibiao mistakenly killed Chen Xuanli Li Jiancheng had already learned from Li Xiuning, who returned to Chang'an, "Because of a misunderstanding, he assassinated his colleagues, why didn't Li Shiji dissuade him?" He just looked at Li Longji so lawless! ”
"Your Highness, because Li Shiji also can't wait to kill the end of the world."
Tian Zaibiao raised his head, and said with hatred in his eyes: "At the beginning of the Battle of Bashu, Li Shiji escaped alone in spite of King Zhao, who was still fighting bloodily on the front line, in order to save his life. Because the last general and him are already on the same page in this matter, he can't wait to kill the last general! ”
"What, Li Shiji dared to see death and not save him, and sit back and watch Xiaogong die in battle?"
Li Jiancheng is generous, except for Li Shimin, who has threatened his position, he is still very kind to his other brothers. Suddenly heard that Li Shiji had escaped alone regardless of his cousin Li Xiaogong's life or death, and he was immediately furious.
Qin Hui immediately said: "Your Highness, Li Shiji, this thief is so bold that he dares to sit back and watch the trouble, His Royal Highness will be His Majesty Chen to punish this thief and seek justice for King Zhaojun." Secondly, Li Shiji is a die-hard loyalist of the King of Qin, and Hanzhong chokes the throat of Bashu, the governor of Hanzhong in Shu must be the deputy marshal of the army, after getting rid of Li Shiji, His Royal Highness can recommend His Royal Highness the King of Qi or His Royal Highness the King of Huai'an (Li Shentong) to serve as the governor of Hanzhong, and then follow the King of Qin into Shu. In addition, His Royal Highness King Changguang has relied on the credit of recovering Hanzhong, and it seems that he has been becoming more and more restless recently, and he is winning over his henchmen in the court, and His Royal Highness should also beat him this time, by the way, let some people with ill intentions know that His Royal Highness is generous and benevolent, but he is by no means weak and can be bullied! ”
"It makes sense."
Li Jiancheng stood up, nodded heavily, and said, "General Tian, you will enter the palace with Gu to face the saint and seek justice for Brother Xiaogong!" ”
