The emperor who was sitting on the rope bed sighed, and then looked like he hated iron but not steel, and stared at Pei Yanling: "Otherwise? Didn't you still think that Gao Yue would be tied up, travel thousands of miles alone, and come to Beijing to stretch your neck and let your little Pei bachelor tie up? ”

Pei Yanling stammered when he spoke at this time, but he actually had a plan in his heart, "Gao Yue and Wang Qijun are good at raising military brigades and attacking the Navy Stone City, which is already considered a rebellion, please send an edict to all kinds of soldiers and horses to discuss." ”

At this time, the emperor was silent.

Pei Yanling was most afraid of this silence, so he requested: The Shence Xing Battalion in the northwest of Beijing and Helong each extracted 3,000 elites, and then gathered the three armies of Jingdong Shence, and then let the Fenghua Army Hun Yang be the commander, and at the same time drove Heyang, Yicheng, Zhongwu, Zhongyi and other roads as wings, and pressed to Huainan, Gaoyue will collapse in a short time.

At this moment, Pei Yanling knew in his heart that if the emperor had any idea of Gao Yue's rebellion, then he would be finished, so he gritted his teeth and said to the emperor: "Now that the signs of Gao Yue's tail have been formed, if Your Majesty thinks that using the minister's head can be exchanged for Gao Yue's temporary taming, then please behead the minister's head, along the Cao River, and send the letter to Huainan." ”

The emperor thought for a while, and said to Pei Yanling bitterly: How can I be willing to behead Xiao Pei, but where can I get the money and grain to let you pay for the military supplies?

Pei Yanling immediately replied that when Liu Yan was presiding over the Cao Yun, he transported 1.1 million stone of grain from the southeast of Jianghuai every year, but along the way, he would collect 400,000 stone in Heyin and 300,000 stone in Taiyuan, Shaanzhou, and only 400,000 stone would be sent to Dongwei Bridge. Enough to support an army of 100,000 for two years.

As for the money, Your Majesty doesn't have to worry, the previous ministers also paid four million yuan from the treasury to Your Majesty, which is enough to pacify Gao Yue.

"Who wants to get rid of the dog Rong for me in the third year of high school, and pacify Cai Kou for me, but in the blink of an eye, he has self-respect, which is simply a deep disappointment to my expectations and trust in him." The emperor had Pei Yanling's promise to strengthen his courage, and gritted his teeth on the spot, "Also, let Wei Gao of Jiannan also send troops out of the gorge and attack Huainan along the river, as long as he succeeds, I will promise him to lead the land of Sanchuan, which means that Xingyuan will also be under his jurisdiction." ”

"The Holy Lord is wise!" Pei Yanling was ecstatic in his heart.

"The Xingyuan Dingwu Army, as well as Fengxiang's Yining Army, up to the Jiedu envoys, down to the ordinary generals and archers, are all cultivated by Gao Yue, and they are by no means stable—what should I do?" The emperor asked Pei Yanling again.

Fengxiang and Xingyuan are two important towns, but they are not far from Jingshi, and the emperor is absolutely afraid of the occurrence of the second Changwu Rebellion.

"Your Majesty has 30,000 Shenwei troops in the capital to protect it, don't be afraid of these two towns, please directly issue an edict to cut down Gao Gu and Zhang Jingze (the original Fengxiang Yin Xue Baijing died in office, with the support of the marching Sima Zhao Guangxian and Wang Li, and the general Zhang Jingze replaced the Jiedu envoy), wouldn't it be good for His Majesty's relied on Shence or Shenwei army to take over Xingyuan and Fengxiang? As long as the military power of these two towns is withdrawn, Your Majesty's strength to pacify Huainan will be even higher! ”

In this regard, the emperor agreed.

After the question was over, Pei Yanling invited Li Qiyun and Li Shi to the private house that night, and said happily, "Now the overall situation has become!" ”

Li Qiyun and Li Shi were also overjoyed, among which Li Qiyun was full of thoughts about Bai Ma Xuan, and Li Shi thought that after Gao Yue fell, he must be the new Huainan Festival envoy.

However, it is still Pei Yanling who is the most cunning, and his vision is still long-term among them, "Gao Yue raised troops, ostensibly to attack Li Qi, but in fact, he wanted to force the Holy Lord to return Du Huangsheng, Lu Zhen, etc., that is, if Lu Zhen survived for a day, His Majesty could use leniency for him as a bargaining chip at any time to reach an understanding with Gao Yue, and then we would all be defeated in the inner and outer courts, and the consequences would be unimaginable." ”

"What Master Pei means is to persuade the Holy Lord to kill Lu Jiu as soon as possible, and since then he has completely broken with Gao Yue, and there is no room for return." Li Shi is also a character full of abscesses.

Pei Yanling nodded, and said Of course, we have to find a way to put Lu Jiu to death as soon as possible, and we can't delay any longer.

At this time, Li Shi stepped forward and said that it was too difficult to collect Lu Zhen's own crimes, this presiding officer and tribute never accepted bribes, and he did not interact with people at home on weekdays, and the gifts given to him by the powerful and vassal were all sealed and returned.

"It's useless to arrest these two people (and it's impossible), Gao Yue has rebelled now, and Wei Gao still has to fight for it."

So Li Shi said that he could only make a fuss from Lu Zhen's wife.

Lu Zhen's wife and the former wife of Jing Zhao Yin Li Chong are close friends in the boudoir, and Jing Zhao Yin is in charge of the finance and taxation of Gyeonggi Inner Prefecture and can start.

"Quickly start with Li Chong's most personal scribe in Jingzhao Mansion!" Pei Yanling made the final decision.

But what he didn't know was that at the same time as he was in full swing, in fact, in the Jinluan Palace, the emperor's mind was fluctuating violently:

The emperor is not a fool, he knows that according to Pei Yanling's approach, the world will be completely chaotic.

As soon as Fugu Huai'en made trouble, Jingshi was captured by Xifan;

Later, Li Huaiguang made a fuss, and the Beijing division was captured by the rebels for the second time.

These two hardships made it take a long time for the Tang Dynasty to recover.

And now Gao Yue's strength is afraid that it is even greater than the previous two, and Gao Yue is now the national pillar comparable to Guo Ziyi, if he really falls, what will happen to this world?

Even if Huainan is pacified, I am afraid that my country and society will be destroyed.

No, no, Gao Yue and Lu Zhen, how deep is the burden! Xiao Pei is wrong, but there is one thing he is not wrong, these two are the masterminds, they want to cut my power, they want to cut off my wealth, if they succeed, I hold this country but I can't be free, what's the point......

Moreover, Lu Zhen has been demoted to Daozhou as Sima, if Gao Yue turns his face, I have to welcome Lu Zhen back, where will my face exist? What will you rely on to deal with the situation in the future?

In his thoughts, the emperor walked around anxiously.

Song Ruohua and Shangqing knelt outside the curtain for a long time with the food box, and finally Song Ruohua looked at Shangqing, who didn't dare to speak, and said to the emperor: Your Majesty has thought for a long time, and you should also have a full meal, and then personally deal with state affairs.

Only then did the emperor remember that the prime minister was gone, and the Hanlin scholar was gone, and I really had to do it myself.

But after eating a good meal, the emperor let the group of scribes from Zhongshu Province come, even if Huahuan worked very hard, but the affairs of the world were linked one by one, there were too many, the transfer of troops in western Beijing and Jingdong, the transfer of personnel inside and outside the imperial court, the sending of edicts to various towns, how to transfer the cangmi in Shaanzhou and Heyin, the configuration of water transport envoys everywhere, etc.

Unconsciously, several hours passed in the Jinluan Palace, and the green smoke curled up, like a mountain in front of the case, the emperor described it as withered, and did not feel that the sound of dawn had come from outside the hall.

It's dawn.

However, less than a quarter of all the affairs were decided.
