Chapter 398: The Future Empress and Crown Prince (Part I)

The eunuch Cheng Yuanzhen took the emperor's secret edict, with the beautiful vision of being named the marquis of ten thousand households, sneaked into Fanyang, and along the way, Xiaoxing stayed overnight in the wind and dust, and waited in Fanyang for two days, and finally met Shi Siming, the actual controller of the three towns of Fanyang.

Shi Siming glanced at the emperor's secret edict, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but float a strange smile. []

Shi Siming never imagined that Tang Emperor Li Heng would actually pin his counterweight against Zhang Xuān on his own as a rebel general∨ xuān was originally the mainstay of the Tang Dynasty, the marshal of the rebels in Ping'an Lushan, but now he has to rely on the rebels of An Lushan to counterbalance, isn't this a big joke.

Although the emperor's conditions are incomparably good, Shi Siming is not really tempted to rebel and capricious, and gives up surrendering to Zhang Xuān, which is nothing more than seeing the chaos of the situation, and wanting to make himself a country and establish himself as an emperor in troubled waters, and then plot the whole world.

In a sense, Shi Siming's ambition is no worse than An Lushan's.

Cheng Yuanzhen stood aside cautiously and respectfully, anxiously waiting for Shi Siming's reply.

Shi Siming glanced at the eunuch and said lightly, "Emperor Tang has no sincerity, he actually sent you an internal eunuch over,... But don't you take Shi someone in your eyes? ”

Shi Siming's words were high above and full of arrogance and domineering Cheng Yuanzhen's face suddenly turned red, he gritted his teeth and said, "Our family is the general of the right prison guard canonized by His Majesty, and he always knows about internal affairs, but he is not an ordinary internal supervisor. His Majesty sent us here, not only did he not despise the general of neglect, but he looked very highly at the general. Your Majesty said that as long as the general is willing to resist the enemy from the dragon, An Lushan's title, position and old department will be replaced by the general! ”

Shi Siming didn't seem to expect that an internal supervisor would still have a bit of humility and arrogance, and couldn't help but glance at Cheng Yuanzhen a little less contemptuous.

Xindao: This eunuch is not simple.

He smiled indifferently again, "You stand down and wait for Shi to consider it again." ”

"It's our family who quit first." Cheng Yuanzhen knew that Shi Siming would not agree so quickly, so he hurriedly hugged his fists and said goodbye.

As soon as Cheng Yuanzhen left, Shi Siming's eldest son Shi Chaoyi flashed out of the inner hall and hugged his fists and said, "Father, my son thinks that if I agree for the time being, after our army uses the power of the Tang Emperor to destroy Zhang Xuān, we will drive straight into Chang'an, seize the Tang Dynasty in one fell swoop and replace it!" ”

Shi Siming laughed, nodded and said, "That's what my father thinks about." It's just that you can't agree to come down so quickly, otherwise one by one"

"Otherwise, Emperor Tang wouldn't know the importance of our waiting. Delay him for a few more days and see how it goes. What's the situation over there? Zhang Xuān should be preparing to go out of Tongguan to attack Chang'an and call the emperor out, right? Shi Siming asked.

Shi Chaoyi smiled and said, "Emperor Tang has just canonized Yan Zhenqing recently, and it is estimated that although Yan Zhenqing can't hold the Tiger Pass, at least he can stop Zhang Xuhan's army and horses, and the rest of the month ♀ is enough for our army." The father and son were willing to personally lead the army to the battle, and the soldiers fought with Zhang Xuān's army and horses in the Tiger Pass. ”

"Don't rush yet. The day after tomorrow, my father will give you 80,000 soldiers and horses, raise the banner of the Tang Dynasty, rush to Chen in the name of counterinsurgency, and wait for the opportunity to take the Tiger Prison Pass to prevent Zhang Xuān from entering Fanyang. Of course, if Zhang Xuān attacks Chang'an first, then our army does not need to rush into the army, and for the time being, sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, and wait for the Tang Emperor's soldiers and horses to be defeated and Zhang Xuān are both defeated, and then send troops to succeed in one fell swoop! ”

"Remember, our worst enemy is not Emperor Tang, but Zhang Xuān! If this person is not eliminated, even if we destroy Li Tang, it will be difficult to occupy the world. Shi Siming said solemnly, for fear that Shi Chaoyi would despise Zhang Xuān.

In fact, Shi Chaoyi attaches far more importance to Zhang Xuān than his father, and even has some awe of Zhang Xuān's methods. Because Shi Chaoyi has dealt with Zhang Xuān twice, and even Zhang Xuān is eloquent and decisive, which is very within the reach of people, and he has the appearance of an emperor.

But this kind of thing, in front of Shi Siming, Shi Chaoyi categorically did not dare to say it.

Shi Chaoyi said loudly and excitedly, "My son obeys!" ”

It's just that I pity Shi Jian, the kid, who lost his life in vain, sighed for a long time, and thought of his youngest son Shi Jian, who was still detained in Zhang Xuān's hands, and his mood became a little bad.

A trace of coldness flashed in Shi Chaoyi's eyes, but he also sighed, "Father Shuai, rest assured, my son will do whatever it takes to save my little brother∨ if I dare to hurt my little brother, the army will take Luoyang, and I will definitely kill him." ”

Shi Siming let out a sigh of relief, "Let's go, those who become big things are not informal, for the sake of the Shi family's Wang Tu hegemony, Shi Jian, Shi Jian, you don't blame your father for being ruthless!" ”

Shi Chaoyi sneered in his heart, and said in his heart, why do you pretend to be so fake? If you really think about the friendship between father and son, why do you have to go back on it? If Zhang Xuān is lowered, not only can he thin his younger brother's life, but also Bo Ronghua and wealth.

Shi Chaoyi doesn't have a good impression of this young brother. Relatively speaking, Shi Siming is more fond of this young son, if Shi Jian returns to Shi Siming's side, Shi Chaoyi's future position as the prince has something to do with him.

Shi Chaoyi left.

Three days later.

Shi Siming summoned Cheng Yuanzhen and agreed to accept the canonization of Tang Emperor Li Heng, becoming the king of Fanyang County of the Tang Dynasty and the general manager of Fanyang's marching army, and the pacification envoy of the three towns of Fanyang.

Cheng Yuanzhen was overjoyed, "Shi Jun Wang is wise!" Let's go back to Chang'an to report to Your Majesty, and let Your Majesty tell the world. In the future, when Zhang Xuān's rebellion is quelled, the court will still have heavy rewards, please rest assured that King Shijun. ”

A mocking smile appeared on the corner of Shi Siming's mouth, and he said lightly, "It's enough for the emperor to keep his promise, and it doesn't matter if he is rewarded or not." Just don't do it like you did with Zhang Xuān, and start unloading and killing donkeys when the rebellion is settled. ”

"Tell His Majesty the Emperor, just say that I, Shi Siming, can serve the imperial court and send troops to serve the king. However, Shi listened to the tune and did not listen to the announcement. ”

Cheng Yuanzhen smiled awkwardly and didn't dare to say anything more.

"Okay, you go back" someone sent someone to escort you back to Chang'an from the southeast of the river." Shi Siming waved his hand, a little impatient.

Cheng Yuanzhen hugged his fists and saluted, "Our family says goodbye, Shijun Wang take care!" Our family is waiting for the good news of King Shi Jun in Chang'an! ”

Cheng Yuanzhen hurriedly left, and immediately left Fan Yang with Shi Siming's letter of allegiance and quickly sneaked back to Chang'an.

On the same day, Shi Siming ordered the Wan army, played the banner of the king of Fanyang County of the Tang Dynasty and the general manager of the Fanyang marching army, and in the name of the emperor's edict to quell the rebellion, the eldest son Shi Chaoyi led the army to swear to the battle.

Shi Chaoyi led the army to leave Fanyang, prepared to enter Chen, and then waited for an opportunity to take the Tiger Prison Pass and enter Henan. But don't you know that at this time, the Tiger Prison Pass had already fallen into the hands of Zhang Xuān, and when Shi Chaoyi raised his army, Zhang Xuān had already led an army of 120,000 out of the Tiger Prison Pass in Fanyang.

Shi Chaoyi was half a beat slower, while Emperor Li Heng was two and a half beats slower.

Zhang Xuān ordered his servant Gu Huaien to lead an army of 20,000 to defend Luoyang, which echoed the trend of Feng Chong in Tongguan and Zhang Tong in Hujiao Pass.

Zhang Xuān marched with 60,000 Flying Tiger Army (nearly 20,000 of Li Guangbi's troops were reorganized), 20,000 Flying Leopard Army, 10,000 Shenwu Army, 10,000 Shence Army, and 20,000 Hui Cavalry.

Feng Chong led 20,000 troops to defend Tongguan, Fugu Huaien led 20,000 Flying Leopard troops to defend Luoyang, Zhang Tong led 10,000 Yu Linwei to guard Tiger Pass, plus Yan Zhenqing's 20,000 Henan troops who were about to return from Tiger Pass to defend Shaanxi County, and the military horses currently in Zhang Xuān's hands were approaching Liwan.

With such heavy troops in hand, it is almost logical to subvert Datang.

The action of the 130,000-strong army was not trivial, waving flags, and marching for miles and miles with great momentum.

Yan Zhenqing stared at the direction in which Zhang Xuān's army drove into Fanyang's territory, sighed and looked back at Zhang Tong with a fist, "Brother Zhang, the Tiger Prison Pass will be handed over to you." Xia Guan led the army back to defend Shaanxi County, waiting for the triumphant report of the main public division. ”

Zhang Xuān arrived at the Tiger Prison Pass and personally went to the place where Yan Zhenqing was being held and had a long talk with them all night. No one knows what Zhang Xuān talked about with Yan Zhenqing, or what he promised, anyway, after that, Yan Zhenqing surrendered and really became one of the talents under Zhang Xuān.

"Lord Yan, you lead the army back to defend Shaanxi County, and you are ready to respond to Tongguan at any time, the responsibility is heavy, don't underestimate it." Zhang Tong also hugged his fists and replied, "The people are currently working under Zhang Xuān's account, and they will be ministers of the same palace in the future, so they are naturally very polite to each other.

The corners of Yan Zhenqing's mouth twitched, although he didn't say anything, but he sighed in his heart, the world's elite soldiers and horses are all in the hands of Zhang Xuān, what else does the emperor expect to compete with Zhang Xuān? It's nothing more than Geshuhan in Hexi. However, Ge Shuhan has a close relationship with Zhang Xuān, and the world knows that it is really difficult to say whether Ge Shuhan will die for the emperor.

I'm afraid it won't be long before the world will change its surname to Zhang.

…………………………”

Yongzhou.

When the news of Zhang Xuān's army breaking with the Tang Dynasty came, Yongzhou was shaken. In order to prevent accidents, Li Tengkong and Su Hudong decided to lead the female army to immediately escort their families and other relatives to Luoyang.

Yang Yuhuan, who was renamed Yang Yulian, has rushed to Yongzhou to join Cui Ying and other women. Except for Cui Ying and Yang Sanjie, who had already known in their hearts, all the women didn't expect that their husband Zhang Xuān would actually get a generation of Tang Dynasty concubines, and they were shocked and speechless on the spot.

This is also ...... What's the matter?

What sè bold, audacious...... It is impossible to describe Zhang Xuān's amazing move.

And looking at this posture, it seems that Yang Yuhuan has not followed Zhang Xuān for a day or two, at that time, I am afraid that the old emperor is still in power.

Judging from this point alone, how could Zhang Xuān not create the rebellion of the Li Tang Dynasty. As soon as Li Tengkong and Hua Nu'er thought of this, their faces became a little exciting.

No, it's very exciting.

Yang Yuhuan was naturally a little embarrassed, but compared with future happiness, this was a threshold that she had to pass. Fortunately, Cui Ying and Yang Sanjie are from the "round field." "It's not so embarrassing that Yang Yu and Huan are too embarrassed‖ since it is a woman approved by Zhang Xuān and Cui Ying agrees, in fact, the women can't say anything else. (To be continued)!.
