Chapter 151: You Have a Handsome Little Brother?
Li Longji is a Ming monarch who pushed the Tang Dynasty to the prosperous era, since he can create the 'Kaiyuan Prosperous Era', it is enough to show that he is not an easy person, let alone a fool, at this time, the Nanzhao King Pi Luo Ge in the sensitive period of the rebellion in the land, suddenly sent his second son to lead a delegation to Chang'an City, which made Li Longji feel that Pi Luo Ge must be planning to meddle in the land planing things, but why did Pi Luo Ge participate in it? Is it just to be loyal to the Tang Dynasty, or is there something else?
As an emperor with strong self-confidence, Li Longji did not doubt Pi Luoge's 'loyalty' to him, he did not believe that Pi Luo Ge had the courage to rebel against him, but he also understood the sentence 'Nothing to do is not a traitor or a thief', Nanzhao took the initiative to be courteous at this juncture, which seems to have shown that he has other plans.
Li Linfu's eyes rolled, and from time to time he secretly glanced at Li Longji with his spare eyes, paused, and said: "Your Majesty, the king of Yunnan has always been loyal to the Tang Dynasty, loyal to His Majesty, the land is in the north of Nanzhao, now, there has been such a big rebellion, if it continues to develop for a long time, it will inevitably affect the border of Nanzhao, how can the king of Yunnan not be anxious, this time to send the second prince to come, I am afraid that it is to discuss the situation with Your Majesty, so as to make the land stable as soon as possible, so that the surrounding people can live a peaceful life, the king of Yunnan is loyal, Your Majesty do not doubt." ”
Li Longji nodded lightly: "I hope I am too worried, in a few days, the second prince of Nanzhao will arrive in the capital, the right minister has to work hard, contact them more, and find out the purpose of their coming to the capital." ”
"Yes, Your Majesty, the minister understands."
Li Linfu accepted the order with indignation.
Li Longji yawned, closed his eyes slightly, and made a very sleepy appearance.
Seeing this, Li Linfu glanced at Gao Lishi and slowly withdrew from the Zichen Palace.
"Everyone is tired, do you want to go to the back and rest?"
Li Longji opened his eyes slightly, shook his head and said, "No need, I can still persevere, the situation in the land is sinister, how can I have the heart to rest." ”
"Everyone should take care of the dragon body, you can think about happy things."
Gao Lishi really cares about Li Longji's body, and is afraid that Li Longji will be tired, after all, he is already an old man who is more than half a hundred years old, and being too tired will cause extremely serious damage to his body.
"Happy thing?"
Li Longji was stunned for a moment, and smiled slightly at the corner of his mouth: "The rebellion in the land has made me quite annoyed, but the successive defeats of Tubo are a happy thing, especially Li An's ambush battle in Zimu Road, which was fought extremely beautifully, and the three thousand dragon martial forces annihilated 20,000 border troops in Tubo, and even the brave and warlike Tubo prince Langzhi was personally beheaded by Li An, which is very happy!" ”
"Everyone, I heard that Captain Li also captured the Tubo Da Tan Wu Guo alive and was on his way to the capital, the old slave remembered that when Wu Tan Guo came to the capital, he was so wise and arrogant that he forced many wise and resourceful people in my Datang to be speechless, and I didn't expect that I hadn't seen him for many years, and he became a prisoner of my Datang."
When Li Longji heard this, he was in a better mood, and pointed to Gao Lishi: "The general's memory is really good, he still remembers these old things, yes!" After so many years, I still miss Wu Yan Guo, this time, he came to the Tang Dynasty as a prisoner, I want to catch up with him, if he is willing to belong to the Tang Dynasty, I will also make him the prime minister, hahaha! ”
As soon as he talked about these examples of the Tang Dynasty's victory, Li Longji's depressed mood was swept away, Li An's complete victory, and Wang Zhonghe's momentum was like a bamboo, which made him see the spirit of the Tang Dynasty's heroic division, with the backing of these strong and famous generals, are you still afraid that the rebellion will not be solved smoothly?
Li Longji had already thought that as long as Li An returned to the capital, he would reward him well, and of course, he would be given more important tasks so that Li An's ability could be better reflected.
####
In the Yuetang of the Right Prime Minister's Mansion, Li Linfu was deep in thought, and in the contest with the Tubo Empire, the Tang Dynasty achieved successive victories, and the victorious generals were none other than Wang Zhongsi and Li An.
Li An'an annihilated 20,000 border troops in Tibet, personally beheaded the prince of Tibet, Lang Zhidu, and captured alive the Tubo Da Dian Wuzhi Guo, making immortal contributions.
Under the premise that Gai Jiayun was defeated by Tubo, Wang Zhongsi turned the tide and used rushing tactics to catch Tubo by surprise, and once again won a complete victory, achieving a record that can go down in history.
Under the continuous blows of Li An and Wang Zhonghe, Tubo Zanpu Chide Zuzan was forced to abandon a large area of the country and fled back to the capital in embarrassment, which was a thing that all the people of the Tang Dynasty were proud of, but Li Linfu was a little unhappy.
Wang Zhongsi supported the crown prince, and repeatedly accused him of controlling the dynasty and causing chaos in the Tang Dynasty, and was his sworn enemy, although Li An was kind on the surface, polite to him, and had a close expression, but Li An was not his person after all, and he was very close to Wang Zhonghe, and it was very likely that he was Wang Zhonghe's henchman.
These two people have made immortal achievements, and they will inevitably be appreciated by Emperor Li Longji, and promotions and rewards are inevitable, and this will naturally pose a big threat to him Li Linfu, how can Li Linfu tolerate it.
'In this world, there is no one I Li Linfu can't deal with, Wang Zhonghe, you openly accuse me of controlling the government, I am inseparable from you, one day, I will make you pay the price. ’
"Alang, I'm back."
Just when Li Linfu hated Wang Zhonghei, Li Zhonglin quietly walked into the Moon Hall and disrupted Li Linfu's train of thought.
Li Linfu glanced at Li Zhonglin dissatisfiedly and asked, "Is there anything important?" ”
Li Zhonglin was startled when he saw Li Linfu's eyes red, calmed down for a moment, and said, "Ah Lang, our people have news back, but I'm not sure if it's important news. ”
"Say."
"Ah Lang, there is news from the Long Wu Army that Prince Nanzhao has been attacked by assassins many times along the way, but he was crushed by Captain Li."
"This kind of thing is also worth reporting?"
Li Linfu was furious, his eyes glared at Li Zhonglin, his confidant, praised Li An in front of him, of course he was very angry.
"Ah Lang is angry."
Li Zhonglin continued: "According to our people's reports, Captain Li has captured assassins alive many times, but each time he secretly let these assassins go, our people think it is very strange, so they report it. ”
"Got rid of all the captured assassins?"
Li Linfu was greatly surprised, and hurriedly asked, "What can you find out the reason?" ”
Li Zhonglin shook his head lightly: "Ah Lang, capturing and letting go of the assassin alive was quietly carried out by Captain Li and his henchmen, and it took a lot of effort for our people to find out about this matter, as for the reason, it is not very clear." ”
"It's really strange, capturing the assassin alive is also a great achievement, why should Captain Li turn away the credit in his hands? Does he have some ulterior motives? ”
Li Linfu gently stroked his chin, looking even more puzzled, he really couldn't understand what Li An was doing, he thought for a long time, and a sneer squeezed out of the corner of his mouth: "It's really young and frivolous, young and frivolous." ”
In Li Linfu's view, most of these assassins who assassinated Chengjie were the remnants of the Five Edicts, and Nanzhao was a subject state of the Tang Dynasty, and Li An, as a general of the Tang Dynasty, actually let go of the remnants of the Five Edicts who assassinated Chengjie, which was a serious ******** and a denial of the foreign policy of the Tang Dynasty.
"Ah Lang, this Ang Li is so bold, it's just lawless, why don't you join him."
Li Linfu nodded lightly: "This matter must be known to His Majesty, but if you want others to do it, you will tell Zhou Yuanwai and Zheng Lang about this later...... They know what to do. ”
"Yes, Ah Lang, Zhonglin understands."
The reason why Li Linfu did not personally participate in Li An's book was because this kind of thing of saying bad things about people behind his back would cause Li Longji to think about himself if he did too much, and let the minions he personally promoted to do this matter, there would be no such worries, which is Li Linfu's consistent style.
As an official, there are many things that you don't need to do by yourself, sometimes, you only need to give your own hints, and naturally there will be many followers who are eager to express their loyalty, which is the art of being an official, magical and full of charm.
Li Linfu pondered for a moment and looked at Li Zhonglin: "Is there any important news from Wang Zhonghe's side?" ”
"Ah Lang, there doesn't seem to be any important news, Wang Zhongsi has always loved soldiers like sons, every time his subordinates make meritorious contributions, they are given heavy rewards, this time the attack on Tubo won a complete victory, the most meritorious generals Li Guangbi and Ge Shuhan have won thousands of gold rewards, and the generals and soldiers are willing to be driven by him, Wang Zhongsi has a very high prestige in the army!"
Of course, Li Linfu knew that Wang Zhongsi had a small treasury, and every time he led his troops into battle, he would clearly tell the officers and men under his command how much reward they would receive after making meritorious contributions.
'Meritorious master, buy the hearts of soldiers, boldly support the prince, Wang Zhonghei, sooner or later you will reap the consequences. ’
Li Linfu knew that the time was not yet ripe to frame Wang Zhonghe, but Wang Zhongsi was too ostentatious, and he didn't seem to know anything about Li Longji's heart.
"Okay, there's nothing to do, you go and do things!"
"Yes, Aaron."
After Li Zhonglin left, Li Linfu continued to sit in the Yuetang, touching his chin and thinking about how to frame the minister who opposed him.
#####
A few days later, a huge team of more than 1,000 people arrived at the capital Mingdemen under the leadership of Li An, and the second prince of Nanzhao, Yu Chengjie, was in danger all the way without any injury.
Among them, Li Ang is naturally indispensable, without Li An's strict guard, Yu Chengjie is afraid that he will be more than lucky.
In order to welcome the second prince of Nanzhao, Li Linfu, the right minister, personally went out and led a group of civil and military officials to arrive outside the Mingde Gate, and made all preparations to greet him.
Yu Chengjie is the first time to come to Chang'an City, just got off the carriage, and was stopped by the magnificent Chang'an City Gate, he originally thought that Nanzhao's Taihe City was majestic enough, compared with Chang'an City, Taihe City looked much shabby, which also made him understand that the Tang Dynasty is an invincible and powerful empire, and any country that tries to confront the Tang Dynasty must be beyond its strength.
The ceremony of greeting was cumbersome and boring, nothing more than being polite to each other and praising each other vigorously, and the Datang officials tried their best to show their appreciation for Nanzhao, and the Nanzhao officials appreciated the wealth and strength of the Datang, and said that Nanzhao would always belong to the Datang and be the little brother of the Datang.
Ang Lee had no interest in this boring welcome ceremony, so he took advantage of the unpreparedness and sneaked away, anyway, his official position was not high, and it was really not easy to attract too much attention in such an occasion where high-ranking officials were everywhere.
After buying some gifts, Li An went straight to Yan Zhenqing's mansion, and what he was anxious to see was naturally not Yan Zhenqing, but Yan Zhenqing's niece Yan Ruyu.
Since he had a skin-to-skin relationship with Zhao Yufu in the East Female Country, Li An suddenly felt that he had grown up and should start a family, and Li An was more greedy, the little lady he wanted to marry must be a young and beautiful young lady, and Yan Ruyu was very much in line with Li An's mind in all aspects, if he could marry Yan Ruyu as his wife, what more could the husband ask for.
As Ang Li thought, Yan Zhenqing was no longer at home, and Yan Ruyu was in the study in the backyard to warm up her books, which was the best.
"Captain Li, you're back! I'm going to call Nineteen Niang. ”
As soon as Li An walked to the small door of the backyard, he met Yan Ruyu's personal maid unexpectedly.
"Nineteen Niang, Captain Li, who you thought about day and night, is back, why don't you go and take a look."
Yan Ruyu was stunned for a moment, paused, and smiled: "Talkative, go and get busy with you!" ”
"Yes, Nineteen Niang, the grass won't bother you, hehe!"
Yan Ruyu put her pink little hand on her fluttering chest, calmed down for a moment, put down the book in her hand, and walked out of the study.
"You're back."
Yan Ruyu smiled, her cheeks flushed slightly.
"Ruyu, what's wrong with your face, why is it so red."
Ang Lee deliberately teased and took a step forward.
"Hmph, you're going to bully people as soon as you come back."
"Okay, I was wrong, this is a gift for you."
Li An hurriedly admitted his mistake, and took out the gift that had been prepared long ago and gave it to Yan Ruyu.
"Forget it, forgive you."
Yan Ruyu thought about it day and night, wanting to see Li An, now that Li An has just come back, he naturally won't really be angry with Li An, as for the gift, she doesn't care if it's expensive or not, as long as she has this heart, it's enough.
"Ruyu, Cao'er seems to have said just now that you think about me day and night, is it true?"
Ang Lee asked knowingly.
Yan Ruyu glanced at Li An, and then smiled: "Cao'er's little lady is always open-mouthed, don't listen to her." ”
But her expression was obviously telling Ang Lee that she did think about Ang Lee day and night, and she was even more happy to see Ang Lee at this time.
Li An suddenly felt that it was good for people to be tall and handsome, and they could always easily make the little lady secretly agree, and this happy sense of conquest was really cool.
"Yes, do you have a younger brother at home?"
Yan Ruyu suddenly thought of something.
Li An was stunned: "Not just one, Kunxiong and Feiyu are my brothers, what's wrong?" ”
"It's not the two of them, I mean the thirteen or fourteen-year-old little brother, and he's still very handsome."
Yan Ruyu then asked. (To be continued.) )
