"Congratulations, Lord Jieshuai!"

Fengxiang Jiedu Envoy's Mansion, under the chanting of Li Changfu and others, Li Changyan sat in the position that belonged to the Jiedu Envoy. Compared with Li Changyan's happiness, many of the people below have mixed tastes, although they are congratulating on the surface, but they are bitter in their hearts.

An hour ago, Zheng Zheng left Fengxiang City with a few cronies and hundreds of pro-soldiers, and handed over the big seal of the Jiedu envoy to Li Changyan, which was regarded as completely giving up the position of the Fengxiang Jiedu envoy. Although he was unwilling, the situation had reached such a point that either Feng Xiang would be ruined or give up this position, but Zheng Zhen chose the latter.

"You're welcome. This time the army is really helpless, as long as you are willing to serve me as the envoy of this Fengxiang Festival, I will not embarrass everyone, my original intention is also to protect Fengxiang Mansion. Don't worry, you're still in your position. ”

Li Changyan knew that he had a bad name and words this time, and there were many people who were dissatisfied with him, but now he definitely can't mess around. At least he can't replace those who disobey him until he completely controls Fengxiang Mansion, and now all he has to do is appease people's hearts.

Soon Li Changyan announced two appointments, appointing his staff Zhao Rui as the Sima of the Fengxiang Jiedu Envoy and Li Changfu as the assassin of Longzhou. For the rest of the positions, he didn't move for the time being.

However, Zheng Jin's resignation as the envoy of the Fengxiang Festival does not mean that Li Changyan can take over, Zheng Jin's resignation was not approved by the imperial court, and Li Changyan's position as the envoy of the festival was also appointed by himself, and the imperial court did not recognize it. If the court did not recognize his status as an envoy for a day, he would be a rebel, and the surrounding towns would have a reason to attack him. Fengxiang Mansion's current army is only in the early 20,000s, and the strength is not strong, so Li Changyan must now solve the identity problem.

"Sima Zhao, do you have any way to get the imperial court to recognize my status as a festival envoy?" Zhao Rui gave Li Changyan a lot of advice in this operation, otherwise he would not have been able to take Fengxiang Mansion so quickly, so he tried his best to override public opinion and appoint the other party as the marching Sima.

Zhao Rui pondered for a while, and quickly thought of an idea, "Xiaguan has thought of a good idea, but it depends on whether the festival commander adopts it." ”

"Sir, please!" Li Changyan hurriedly said.

"If the marshal wants the court to recognize the legitimacy of the marshal's envoy, it will definitely not work from Wang Duo's side. The festival marshal drove away Zheng Xianggong, which will inevitably make Wang Duo unhappy, and he will definitely participate in the festival marshal in front of His Majesty at that time.

Therefore, if you want to be recognized by the imperial court, you can't start from Wang Duo's side. The lower officials heard that the eunuch Tian Lingzi was greedy for money, and if the marshal was willing to bribe Tian Lingzi with a lot of money, and Tian Lingzi's influence on His Majesty, he would definitely be able to make His Majesty issue an order to recognize the festival marshal's envoy. ”

"How much money does Mr. Na think is needed to buy Tian Lingzi." Li Changyan asked in a deep voice.

"At least 100,000 guan, it is best to prepare 200,000 guan in case of emergency, otherwise Yitian Lingzi is greedy and will not necessarily help Jieshuai speak." Zhao Rui said in a deep voice.

"100,000?" Hearing this number, Li Changyan couldn't help frowning.

The reason why Li Changyan's mutiny was successful this time was because he took advantage of the dissatisfaction in the army with the reduction of military salaries, but this also showed that the treasury of Fengxiang Mansion was empty. Although he didn't know how much grain there was in the treasury, 100,000 guan was not a small amount, which made him hesitate.

"Don't lose a big deal because of a small one. As long as the festival marshal can sit firmly in the position of the festival degree, this amount of money is nothing, and the festival commander can also take the opportunity to scout some money and grain from Huang Chao, so that the festival commander will not give too much. Zhao Rui saw Li Changyan's hesitation, and immediately persuaded.

"Okay, that's it." Li Changyan gritted his teeth, and then looked at Zhao Rui, "I don't know if Mr. can go to see Tian Lingzi on my behalf, and the others go, I don't worry." ”

"Rest assured, the commander will live up to his mission."

。。。。。。

When Li Ye received the news of the eunuchs in the palace and rushed to the palace, he found that the atmosphere in the hall was very delicate, not only Tian Lingzi and Chen Jingxuan were there, but after he arrived, the three prime ministers Pei Che, Xiao Yu, and Wei Zhaodu also came one after another.

"You are all here, take a look, this is the song sent by Wang Qing from Guanzhong."

Yang Fugong obviously knew the content of the fold and didn't take it, so the first one to take it was naturally Tian Lingzi. Tian Lingzi was a little surprised after picking up the fold and reading it, but Li Ye found a trace of joy and schadenfreude in his eyes, which made him a little curious about the content of the fold. Then Pei Che and Xiao Yu picked up the fold one after another, each with different expressions, but their faces had one thing in common, that is, they were full of worry. In the end, the fold came to Li Ye's hands.

In fact, according to his status, Li Ye should be the first to see it, but Tian Lingzi grabbed it, and then gave it to several prime ministers. Of course, Li Ye knew that Tian Lingzi did it on purpose, but he didn't have a seizure, so he couldn't fall out on the spot because of this trivial matter.

"Your Majesty, the minister suggests that troops be sent immediately to quell the rebellion, and such rebellion must not be condoned, otherwise the majesty of the imperial court will be greatly damaged." Xiao Yu on the side was the first to stand up, with a righteous face, and he had the intention of going into battle in person.

"Your Majesty, this is the old slave who thinks that he should think about it carefully, and it is not too late to make a decision when the cause of the matter is clarified." If Xiao Yu agrees, Tian Lingzi opposes, who calls this Xiao Yu always against him.

Originally, after Wang Duo left, he had one less strong opponent, who knew that this Xiao Yu did not give himself face than Wang Duo, which made him very unhappy, but there was no suitable excuse to clean up the other party for the time being.

"Jin Guogong's words are wrong." Xiao Yu said-for-tat, "If you advocate such a rebellion, where is the prestige of the imperial court?" Zheng Xiang is the minister of His Majesty's humerus and has made meritorious contributions to the society, while Li Changyan does not want to serve the country, but commits chaos. If it is not severely punished, the generals of other feudal towns will do the same, how can they quell the rebellion? How can we talk about recovering Chang'an? ”

"At this time, Li Changyan has already controlled Fengxiang Mansion, if he leads the army to attack Fengxiang at this time, in case the Huangchao thief army takes the opportunity to attack Xingping and Xuan, then Xingyuan will be commissioned, and the land of Sanchuan will not be protected at that time." Tian Lingzi said coldly.

Hearing Tian Lingzi's words, Li Yi was a little hesitant, he valued his life very much, if it was really because of the attack on Li Changyan and let the Huangchao army take advantage of the loophole, wouldn't it be even worse?

Seeing Li Ye frowning on the side, he couldn't help asking, "King Shou, what do you think?" ”

"Brother Huang, such a military event, the younger brother does not dare to comment on it. However, Zheng Xiang's loyalty to the emperor's brother is self-evident, although Feng Xiang was lost this time, the main responsibility is not Zheng Xiang. The younger brother just hoped that the imperial brother would not condemn Zheng Xiang. Thinking that the relationship between Zheng Zheng and Tian Lingzi was not good, Li Ye was also afraid that this hero of the Tang Dynasty would be persecuted by the Tian brothers.

Of course, Li Ye was not worried about this, but Li Changyan's rebellion. Li Changyan's rebellion can be said to have made a bad start, and he must be in favor of severely punishing Li Changyan in his heart, otherwise when the other armies do this, how can they command the army?

However, Tian Lingzi's words also have some truth. The imperial court's army in Guanzhong was already weak, and there was an army of Huangchao with more than 100,000 troops next to it, if he attacked Li Changyan at this time, it would be tantamount to giving Huangchao a chance. So the current situation is very embarrassing for the imperial court, it's not doing this, it's not doing that.

Li Ye didn't give advice, Li Yi was a little disappointed, but he still nodded, "Zheng Qing is the pillar of the country, and I naturally won't blame him." Chuan Zhen's order appointed Zheng Qing as the young master of the crown prince and asked him to rush to Chengdu as soon as possible. ”

The young master of the crown prince, the deputy of the prince and the prince, that is, the person responsible for teaching the prince. However, at this time, Li Yi had no heirs, although Concubine Zhang Shu was pregnant, she was not yet in labor, and she didn't know whether she was a prince or a princess, so this prince and young master was actually a false position.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Liu Jishu, the eunuch on the side, nodded hurriedly and wrote down Li Yi's instructions.

Liu Jishu is not famous now, but he is famous in history, that is, he and Yang Fugong put Tang Zhaozong on the throne in history, but later launched a palace coup, abolished Tang Zhaozong, and established the prince Zhaozong as the emperor, of course, it failed.

Of course, the current Liu Jishu is just a eunuch next to Li Yu, he actually has a background, among the three eunuchs who supported Li Yu's ascension to the throne, there was his adoptive father Liu Xingshen, but Liu Xingshen died not long after. Liu Jishu, who has no backer, is naturally not able to mix, but now he has won the trust of Li Yi, but he is still far from the eunuch.
