Roughly equivalent to the northeast of Sichuan, Shaanxi Qinling south of the region, although the economic status is not as good as Shannan Dongdao, but the military position is important, and Chang'an is only separated from the Qinling Mountains, but also the Guanzhong to Shu must pass. The incumbent festival makes the ox 動.
Dongchuan Jiedu envoy, established in the second year of Zhide, Zizhou, under the jurisdiction of Zizhou, Suizhou, Mianzhou, Puzhou, Lingzhou, Luzhou, Jianzhou, Longzhou, Changzhou, Yuzhou, Hezhou and other places, the approximate location is equivalent to the Sichuan Mianyang, Neijiang, Nanchong, Zigong, Luzhou, Suining and the southwest of Chongqing, located in the middle of Xichuan Jiedu, Shannan Xidao Jiedu and Jingnan Jiedu. The current festival envoy Yang Shili.
Jingnan Jiedu envoy, established in the second year of Zhide, governed Jingzhou. At present, it has jurisdiction over Jingzhou, Lizhou, Langzhou, Xiazhou, Zhongzhou, Wanzhou, and Guizhou, which is roughly equivalent to the northeast of Chongqing, the southwest of Hubei and the northwest of Hunan, and guards the middle reaches of the Yangtze River. The current festival envoy Chen Ru.
Looking at everyone looking at him, Li Yingxu continued, "In fact, among these four places, Shannan East Road and Shannan West Road are the best. However, the Shannan Dongdao Jiedu envoy was Liu Jurong's defeat of Huangchao in Xiangzhou before, and now he is the envoy of the southern camp, and His Royal Highness may encounter great resistance; Niu Miao, the envoy of Shannan Xidao Jiedu, and Yang Shili, the envoy of Dongchuan Jiedu, were all cronies of Tian Lingzi's former Shence Army, and Tian Lingzi would not agree to go to these two places.
So the most suitable one at the moment is Jingnan. Although Jingnan is far away from Chang'an, it is also a wealthy place, and shipping is convenient, so it is also an acceptable place to start for His Highness. ”
For Jing Nan, everyone knows the situation. Jingnan has always been very chaotic, this originated from Wang Duo, in the fifth year of Qianfu (878 AD), he was appointed as the envoy of Jingnan Festival. When Wang Duo first arrived in Jiangling, it was not bad, he recruited the exiled people, recruited soldiers, repaired the armor, and made Jiangling strictly armed within a year.
But when the Huangchao army came, Wang Duo abandoned the city and fled, and then Jingnan fell into chaos. After Wang Duo escaped, the Jingnan Jiedu envoy was vacant and unsupervised, and finally Song Hao, the loyal military army, was appointed as the Jingnan Jiedu envoy. However, Song Hao offended Yang Fuguang, the supervisor at the time, and his subordinate Duan Yanmo did not accept it, and finally Duan Yanmo raised troops to kill Song Hao, although during the period Emperor appointed Zheng Shaoye as the envoy of Jingnan Jiedu, but Zheng Shaoye did not dare to go to the post because of Song Hao's example, and finally under the recommendation of Yang Fuguang, Duan Yanmo was still appointed as the envoy of Jingnan Jiedu.
This is not over, in the middle of this year, the eunuch Zhu Jingmei replaced Yang Fuguang as the supervisor of the Jingnan Jiedu envoy, because of the formation of a 3,000-strong 'loyal army', the contradiction with Duan Yanmo intensified, and finally Zhu Jingmei preemptively killed Duan Yanmo. At this time, Zheng Shaoye was reappointed as the envoy of Jingnan Jiedu, but he still did not dare to go to the post, so now there is no envoy of Jingnan Jiedu, only Chen Ru, who was appointed by Zhu Jingmei, temporarily manages Jingnan.
Although Jingnan is very chaotic, Li Ye has a Tiance army of nearly 10,000 people, and even if Zhu Jingmei has thousands of 'loyal and brave troops', he is not Li Ye's opponent.
"Jingnan is not the most suitable place." Li Ye shook his head, Li Ye had long thought about choosing a place to be released, although the land of Jingnan was the easiest to control, it was inconvenient.
"Your Highness, although Jingnan is not an ideal place, it can also allow Your Highness to settle down temporarily. And if His Highness can control Shannan Dongdao and master the two places and fifteen states, His Highness will be able to do more things at that time. Li Yingxu said with a smile.
"But the current situation is that it is not that His Highness can release it if he wants to, this needs an opportunity." Zheng Ningji shook his head and said.
At present, as the emperor, Li Yi's suspicion of Li Ye is already very deep, and it is easy for people to doubt his motives when he seeks to be released at this time. At this time, it is advisable to be quiet and not to move, and it is urgent to seek to be released, but it will get half the result with half the effort, or even worse.
"I'll talk about the release later, in the later period, this king will concentrate on alchemy, you know what to do. Unless there is something important, don't come to the king in person, just send someone to spread the word if there is something. Li Ye thought for a while and said.
"Your Highness!" Sun Ye hesitated a little and was about to ask what was going on, but Li Ye waved his hand directly and drove them away.
Out of the study, Sun Ye was a little dissatisfied, "Is this the case with Your Highness?" What can't be said clearly? ”
"Sun Changshi, His Royal Highness does this, naturally there is a reason for His Highness, as subordinates, we just follow the orders." Li Yingxu, who was half a step behind the three people, said with a smile.
"I'm worried that Your Highness is really addicted to alchemy." Sun Ye voiced his concerns.
"I believe that Your Highness is not that kind of person, and we should also pretend to be angry for a while later, which is also a good thing for Your Highness and several adults." Li Yingxu looked in the direction of the study, and with his understanding of King Shou, he knew that the other party's young body contained an ambitious heart, how could he be addicted to alchemy.
However, Li Yingxu believed in Li Ye very much, but Sun Ye and the three of them still had a trace of worry on their faces, after all, the Li family has a tradition, and they are not afraid of 10,000.
。。。。。。
Just when Li Ye was discussing how to dispel Li Yi's suspicions, Li Yi, who returned to the palace, also had a bad face, thinking of what Tian Lingzi said at the welcoming ceremony, he had not calmed down in his heart, and his face was gloomy. Seeing that Li Yi's face was not good, Liu Jishu didn't dare to interject, for fear of harming the pond fish, and the emperor in front of him started a fire, and the consequences were a bit serious.
After a while, Zhang Junning, a concubine dressed in palace clothes, came to the palace with the emperor who was held by the nurse, Zhang Junning wanted to bring the emperor over to congratulate the emperor, after all, King Shou won the battle, and the emperor should be very happy. However, when she saw Li Yi with a gloomy face, she asked the nurse to take the emperor down, and she came to her side with gentle steps.
"Your Majesty." Zhang Junning sat next to Li Yi and gently massaged his shoulders.
"It's Lady Concubine." Li Yi turned his head sideways, and although his face showed a smile, it was very reluctant.
"Your Majesty, what's the matter? Didn't Your Majesty welcome King Shou? Could it be that King Shou won the battle, but made His Majesty unhappy? Zhang Junning asked gently, but she obviously felt that when she mentioned King Shou, His Majesty's body in front of her suddenly tightened, and his whole body tensed slightly.
