Chapter 17 The Jinyang Incident
As soon as Cheng Biting Jin's words fell, Liu Wenjing on the opposite side stood up, "Cheng Zhuangshi, see you!" But does this strategy and son-in-law Li Mi know? Li Shimin and Pei Lin next to him suddenly pricked up their ears, if Li Mi also knew about this consideration, then they would have to make another plan. (com net) devoured
Cheng Yanjin shook his head, "The starting point is different, and the consideration is different!" Although some people have also suggested that Mi Gong enter Guanzhong, but from the position of Mi Gong, this is not a good strategy. First of all, most of Mi Gong's subordinates are people east of Kunshan Mountain, and now that Luoyang is not down, who is willing to follow him to the west? Moreover, most of the generals under the Mi Gong's account were the same as the younger generations, and they were originally the leaders of one side, and later they took the men and horses to the Mi Gong.
If Mi Gong leads his troops to the west, he is afraid that the backyard will immediately catch fire, and the generals who remain will not obey anyone, and they will quarrel with each other for who is in charge.
Besides, as long as Mi Gong swallows the 200,000 troops of the trapped beast Luoyang, the entire Central Plains will be completely reduced to a bag. At that time, if you wave your army eastward and coerce Yangzhou, the unification of the world will be just around the corner. Because of this, my Wagang million-strong army surrounded the eastern capital. ”
Liu Wenjing's eyes stared at Cheng Yanjin like the tip of a needle, "In this way, I'm afraid that my son-in-law has a great chance of calming the world, so why did Cheng Zhuangshi come to help Tang Gong?" If it was just based on his relationship with Li Gongzi, Cheng Zhuangshi's actions would be too eager! ”
Cheng Biting Jin laughed, "Since Wen Jinggong doesn't believe that the younger generation helped him because of the relationship between the second son, then Wen Jinggong might as well think that the younger generation is betting on both ends, just like the eggs are not put in one basket, the same reason, no matter whether the secret prince is the hero in the future, or the Tang prince sits in the village, the glory and wealth of the younger generation in this life can't run!" ”
Liu Wenjing touched his beard and said with a slight smile, "Apart from this reason, the old man can't think of any other reason!" As soon as he said this, Li Shimin and Pei Lin next to him couldn't help but have some contempt in their eyes when they looked at Cheng Yanjin. Chao Qin and Duchu have always been scolded by the world, not to mention that Cheng Yanjin is still a good man in the rivers and lakes, after all, no one wants to have such a capricious villain under his hands.
Looking at Liu Wenjing with a smug face, Cheng Yanjin couldn't wait to punch him over, and his face was full of flowers. Although the trace of contempt in Li Shimin and Pei Lian's eyes was well hidden, how could they hide the eyes of the process biting gold. Cheng Yanjin couldn't tell them a few, in fact, he was a ghost from thousands of years later, and he had long known that Li Xiaozi was going to be the emperor, so he came to help him, right? Then they don't think he's crazy, they think he's a fool!
At that moment, Cheng Yanjin laughed and said, "Wen Jinggong, this is wrong!" The younger generation hates those villains who hate the most in their lives, how can they serve the two masters at the same time? The reason why the younger generation helped Tang Gong, in fact, is very simple, just because the younger generation is not optimistic about Mi Gong, in the eyes of the younger generation, if Tang Gong is righteous, the chance of being able to win the world is much greater than that of Mi Gong, and helping Tang Gong is also hoping to return the world to a peaceful and prosperous world as soon as possible! ”
"Oh? Now the Wagang army is besieging Luoyang, the eastern capital, just as Your Excellency just said, as long as Luoyang is flat, the Central Plains will be in Li Mi's hands. It can be said that up to now, Li Mi has succeeded halfway on the road to the throne, but Tang Gong has not even taken a step, and the gap between the two sides is clear at a glance, but I don't know why Your Excellency thinks that Tang Gong's chance is greater than Li Mi's? Li Shimin and Pei Lin next to him were both calm and calm, listening to how Cheng Biting Jin could tell the difference.
Cheng Yanjin looked at Liu Wenjing, just smiled and said two words: "Zhai Rang!" The three of them immediately realized that although Li Mi now seems to be majestic, but there are already hidden dangers within the Wagang Army, and the Wagang Army was fought by Zhai Rang with his bare hands, but Li Mi came from behind, and he asked for the position of the leader of the Wagang Army in just a few words. Although Zhai Rang was forced by the situation to make Li Mi the leader, how could he be happy in his heart.
Among the generals of the Wagang Army today, there are still some of Zhai Rang's former subordinates and cronies, how can those people be willing, one day, there will be a break between Zhai Rang and Li Mi, and then the Wagang Army will be torn apart.
Li Shimin, Liu Wenjing and Pei Lin are all smart people, and they can see through a little, Cheng Biting King Kong said Zhai Rang's name, and the three of them thought of this, but the faces of the three of them looked at Cheng Biting Jin a little strangely, and it seemed that Cheng Biting Jin in front of him took the lead in persuading him, Li Mi became the leader of the Wagang Army, but he didn't expect that he would have such an opinion on Li Mi now.
Just looking at the expressions of the three of them, Cheng Biting Jin knew what they were thinking, and when Cheng Biting Jin said with a smile: "When I was persuading Mi Gong, I didn't expect this section, but now it's too late to wake up." At that time, I had a mind in my heart, wanting to find another sage, follow the actions of the Three Emperors and Five Emperors, and return the world to peace, so that the people can live and work in peace and contentment! ”
Liu Wenjing picked up the wine glass, "Cheng Zhuangshi has the people in his heart, he is compassionate, the old man respects Your Excellency with a glass and talks about respect!" Cheng Biting Jin sighed, his grandmother's finally fooled this group of bastards.
A few people were drinking on the head, and suddenly the door was opened with a bang, and everyone turned their heads to look, but it was Hou Junji standing there breathlessly. At that moment, Li Shimin's face was a little ugly, a few of them were drinking inside, and his subordinates broke in, didn't this just smear his face?
Before Li Shimin could reprimand Hou Junji, the latter said in a hurry, "Son, the envoy sent by the Yangzhou Emperor has arrived ahead of schedule, and is now staying at the county office. The emperor's handwritten edict he brought with him wanted to arrest Tang Gong and go to Yangzhou to ask for guilt. ”
"What?" A few people sitting there immediately jumped up in horror, why did this envoy suddenly come to Bingzhou? Could it be that Yang Guang couldn't wait to take Tang Gong's life? I was a little nervous when I was biting gold, and if I made a mistake, I was afraid that all my efforts would be in vain.
grabbed Li Shimin's sleeve and grabbed Li Shimin, who was a little panicked, Cheng Yanjin said to him, "Now that the situation is dangerous, without further ado, brother will go to Ling Zun and ask him to hurry up and prepare for the move." Brother, I will go back to Qingzhou and bring people and horses to my brother. As the saying goes, the first strike is stronger, and the second strike suffers. Now is not the time to hesitate, brother, hurry up to Ling Zun and tell me in detail about the plan we just had, so that Ling Zun can know what to do and follow suit! ”
Waiting for Li Shimin to leave in a hurry, Cheng Biting Jin turned his head and happened to meet the strange eyes of Liu Wenjing and Pei Lin beside him. These two people are both exquisite, and as soon as they heard it, they knew that the relationship between Cheng Yanjin and Li Shimin must be extraordinary, but the two of them usually don't show it, if it weren't for the critical situation just now, I'm afraid the two of them wouldn't know it.
Liu Wenjing's heart was even more uncomfortable, he always thought that among people with foreign surnames, Li Shimin was the closest to him, but now he suddenly found that the relationship between Cheng Yanjin and Li Shimin seemed to be above him, and he felt a little deceived in his heart at the moment. Just looking back, his age is the same as Li Shimin's father, and Li Shimin has more respect for him than closeness.
Seeing Liu Wenjing and Pei Lin sitting there drinking alcohol, Cheng Biting Jin confessed, and turned his head towards his place where he stayed. However, just as he ordered his subordinates to pack up, the secret agent of Suzaku Hall sent a secret message. Cheng Yanjin didn't feel a little ridiculous after reading it. The secret report said that there were two groups of envoys sent by Yang Guang, the first group of people holding the edict of arresting Li Yuan, but the latter group of people holding the edict of Yang Guang's exemption from Li Yuan. There was only a day's distance between the two groups.
According to the information spied by the secret agents, the reason why Yang Guang gave Li Yuan two completely different edicts in such an almost teasing way was just to knock Li Yuan and let him do things hard in the future. After all, Li Yuan was his aunt and cousin, and Yang Guang couldn't get along with Li Yuan for such a trivial matter.
Besides, Li Valve is one of the four major gate valves, if for this little thing, the master of one valve is killed, then the other three surnamed gate valves and Li Valve's side branches are all in danger, if the already ill-intentioned guys are forced to unite, then his Yang Guang's good days will come to an end.
After figuring out that Li Yuan's life was not in danger for the time being, Cheng Yanjin was not in a hurry, but just slowly asked his subordinates to pack up and salute, and dragged it until the messenger arrived the next day. Cheng Yanjin didn't plan to run over and tell Li Shimin now, your son is not in danger, the emperor is scaring your father! If Li Shimin asked him about the source of this news, he was afraid that Suzaku Hall would be exposed to Li Valve's sight, whether it was Li Valve's request to share information with him, or a big purge in Bingzhou, whether it was to eliminate all the secret agents of Vermilion Bird Hall, it would not be a good thing for Cheng Yanjin!
At noon the next day, Li Shimin sent someone over to deliver the message. When the visitor saw that Cheng Biting Jin was still there, he went back to tell Li Shimin. Soon, Hou Junji came over to deliver a message for Li Shimin, asking Cheng Yanjin to go to the house yesterday, eat and drink together, and discuss countermeasures.
What flattered Cheng Yanjin was that Li Yuan actually came this time. Everyone sat down and first raised their glasses to celebrate Li Yuan's escape from the disaster. Anyway, all the people here know the roots, so Li Yuan accepted this cup calmly. Then the people drank and talked about how to do things.
The so-called planning and then acting, earlier because of the rush of time, so there was only a willingness to raise troops, but there was no specific plan. Li Yuan came here to discuss with everyone how to raise the banner of rebellion faster, better and more steadily, after all, once what he did was revealed, it would be to destroy his family and cut off his children and grandchildren. Therefore, this thing can only succeed, and it is not allowed to fail.
