Chapter 422 Take control of your own fate and that of this country!
What is Lee Hyung-lai doing?
Zhang was surprised.
And Tian Kexin also stared at Zhang Udn with some surprise, hesitated slightly, then got up and whispered, "Your Majesty, Kexin has retired first." β
Zhang Udn let out a sigh of relief and nodded, "It's okay, I'll talk to you about this here today." Remember, don't be in a hurry in everything, slowly figure it out, just like I said about the principle of boiling frogs in warm water", Tian Kexin nodded, but there was a hint of wonder in her watery eyes.
Just now, Zhang Udn told her a very interesting story about "boiling frogs in warm water". Although Tian Kexin is not a traverser and does not have modern ideas in her mind, the truth is still the same, and with her mind, it is not difficult to understand Zhang UDN's "meaningful."
She understood that Zhang UDN was asking her to boil a pot of water, put the people in the Li Tang royal clan into it, and then slowly heat it up, cooking them unconsciously.
It's really a whimsy, and it's really a means of "eating people without spitting out bones".
But judging from the current situation, the emperor's trick of "boiling frogs in warm water" does not seem to be useful. Li Gong raised troops to restore the Tang Dynasty, and Li Yu fled from Xijing Chang'an with some close royal families, which directly angered the emperor. The emperor is going to be ruthless, Kawada Kexin was kind in his heart, bowed to Zhang Yingying, and then left with light steps.
Out of the imperial study, at the door, she saw Li Heng, the former emperor of the Tang Dynasty.
Tian Kexin glanced at Li Heng, sighed in her heart, and walked away.
Li Heng was lowering his head and expressing his complicated thoughts there, and he didn't notice Tian Kexin at all.
Not long after, a pretty and delicate little palace maid came out and saluted Li Heng and said, "Your Majesty invites King Tang to meet you." β
Li Heng sighed and slowly walked inside.
Li Heng walked into the imperial study and looked up to meet Zhang Yun's gaze.
Zhang Udn's gaze was very calm, but Li Heng was inevitably a little embarrassed and flickering. In the past, he was the king, Zhang udn was the minister, and today Zhang udn is the king, he is the minister, and he may even become a prisoner of the lower ranks.
But Li Heng is desperate for his life after all, and he has slowly accepted the reality these days. Of course, he can't accept it.
Li Heng hesitated for a moment, and immediately knelt down, and his voice trembled a little, "Minister Li Heng, meet Your Majesty, long live my emperor, long live!" β
In addition to bowing to his father Li Longji, this is the first time in Li Heng's life to bow down to others and shout long live.
A certain shame and depression stirred up in his heart, and he fell to the ground, his face flushed, and his shoulders trembled slightly.
Zhang Udn is subordinate, and silent.
Long.
He slowly stood up, waved his hand and said indifferently, "Please get up, come on, take a seat." β
Li Heng sat there embarrassed, Zhang Udn looked at him solemnly for a while, Li Heng didn't know how to speak, and Zhang Udn waited quietly for him to speak.
Zhang UDN smiled, "Do you have anything to say?" β
Li Hengjiao twitched and whispered, "Your Majesty, the minister is here to participate in Li Yu's rebellion!" His Majesty is grateful to the ministers for their magnanimity, and he will never dare to have any dissenting intentions, Li Heng babbled without the slightest logical coherence and confessed that in order to clear himself, he even did not hesitate to trample Li Yu's children under his feet in front of Zhang Udn.
Zhang Udn sighed slightly. In his impression, Li Heng was not so unbearable. But I don't know when it comes to time, Li Heng has become speechless, whether it is personality or conduct.
"You don't have to. As long as you don't make trouble for me, I can guarantee that you will enjoy prosperity and prosperity and die in peace.
Zhang Udn smiled indifferently, "Li Yu is Li Yu, you are you, I will definitely not be angry with you because Li Yu absconded." β
"Actually, this is also normal⨠after all, you have taken away your Li family's country, Li Yu is unwilling, Li Gong has different intentions, this is all a human pump. I can understand that. However, I can't accept it. Therefore"
Zhang Udn's gaze instantly became a little cold as a knife, "The general trend of the world, those who go along with it prosper and those who go against it die, since they have embarked on this path, don't complain about anything." β
Li Heng suddenly raised his head, looked at Zhang Udn, and then lowered his head in fear.
He could hear that Zhang UDN had already killed Li Gong and Li Yu. From this point of view, his children are definitely certain to die.
Li Heng hung his head sadly, his eyes were misty, and his hands trembled violently.
Although he tried his best to draw a clear line with Li Yu and others, he was his children's flesh and blood after all, and he got a conclusive answer from Zhang UDN, and he felt pain and regret in his heart.
I hesitated for a long time
, Li Heng finally gritted his teeth, knelt down and said loudly, "Your Majesty, the minister has a daughter, named Yanguang, beautiful appearance and good conduct, the minister is willing to dedicate this daughter to Your Majesty as a concubine" Chuan, please Your Majesty fulfilled! β
As soon as Li Heng said this, Zhang Udn was stunned on the spot. He never expected that Li Heng would dedicate his youngest daughter, the former Princess Yanguang, to him as a concubine.
Zhang UDN was shocked, and couldn't help but be a little funny.
He knew in his heart that Li Heng was still not at ease, and in order to thin his own life and peace and wealth, he did not hesitate to throw out his youngest daughter Yanguang.
At this time, Zhang Udn couldn't help but feel that Li Heng was pitiful, hateful and very pathetic.
"This matter must not be mentioned again." Zhang Udn said indifferently, "I reiterate once again, if you have no dissenting intentions, I will never touch you, and I will ensure that you are rich and safe for the rest of your life." If I really want to touch you, it won't help your daughter to stay with me. β
Li Heng was greatly disappointed, and his face turned red.
"Until now, you haven't figured it out. Li Heng, there are no outsiders at the moment, I will tell you a few words from my heart, absolutely not adulterated. β
"If it weren't for your hard work, I would never have taken you Li Tang Jiangshan." Zhang Udn let out a sigh of relief.
The corners of Li Heng's mouth trembled, and he secretly hated in his heart, and his heart was against the country, and he robbed himself of being the emperor, and he turned around and pretended, which was too fucking hypocritical and shameless. It's just that no matter how much Li Heng hates in his heart, he doesn't dare to say it.
"You may think I'm hypocritical, but that's what I mean from my heart."
Zhang udn, in your opinion, I am a powerful man, and I have already posed a threat to your imperial power, and I can oppose it at any time, but in fact, my original intention is not to be the emperor myself, but to be the most powerful minister in the world, and the biggest capable minister and meritorious hero in the world. β
"I'm not greedy for power, but I want to control the direction of this country. After a few decades, I have realized my ambition, and I will definitely return the power to your Li Tang royal family. It's a pity that you can't wait, and Li Yu can't wait, and he forced me to the edge of the cliff where I had to raise troops again and again.
"Since you want to attack me, then I will take your throne and become the emperor myself [at the peak of this world, control the fate of yourself and this country!]
"Li Heng, feng shui takes turns, and the world takes turns to sit. But after all, the world is the world of the people of the world, no matter how the dynasty is changed, the master of the world is not you, nor me, but the people of the world. β
"Li Heng, you can wait and see, I will enrich the country and strengthen the people, so that the people of the world can truly own the world and glory for the country!"
Li Heng left the palace lonely, returned to his temporary mansion, and greeted his concubine and daughter Yanguang, the only flesh and blood relative who remained by his side, packed up his things and prepared to move to Luoyang, Zhongjing, with the emperor.
Just when Li Heng entered the palace, Wei Huo'er, the general of Nan Jiyun, led a thousand cavalry and chased after him, and finally took down Li Yu and other royal families who were dressed up and mixed in the Hu caravan on the periphery of Qizhou.
Li Yu originally had the heart of death, but unexpectedly, Wei Huo'er did not take him down and bring him back to Chang'an, but announced the emperor's edict to him, saying that he would lead the army to escort them to Wuwei to join Li Gong in accordance with the emperor's will.
Li Yu was at a loss, and then his heart was like ashes. knew that Zhang UDN didn't take Li Gong in his eyes at all, and was ready to "catch them all." "Public killing.
But defecting to Li Gong will still have a trace of disappearance after all, if he stays by Zhang UDN's side, maybe one day he will become the meat on Zhang UDN's board.
And in Wuwei City, Li Gong, who raised troops to restore the Tang Dynasty, gathered the generals to discuss the matter.
To tell the truth, the reason why Li Gong raised troops was related to a Taoist named Taiping. This person is about thirty years old, more than seven feet tall, dignified, dressed in a green robe, but he is also dignified, quite a bit of fairy wind and bones.
This person traveled to Wuwei two years ago, got acquainted with Li Gong, and became a doorman in Li Gong's mansion. Li Gong knew that this person was full of humanities and martial arts, and he respected him very much.
This time, Li Gong chose to raise troops at this time, although it was out of helplessness, but also because of the persuasion of the Taiping Dao people.
If he doesn't oppose it, everything such as Li Gong's current power and family business will come to naught, and he will even lose his life. And to regain the Tang Dynasty, there may still be some chances to achieve hegemony.
As soon as Ge Shuhan left Hexi, Li Yan planned to raise troops and establish himself as the emperor with the assistance of the Taiping Dao people, and worshiped the Taiping Dao people as military generals and state ministers. And the choice to raise the banner of restoring the Tang Dynasty when Zhang Udn attacked the Li Tang royal clan was also out of the consideration of gathering the hearts of the people of the world to Li Tang.
But after all, Li Gong has few major generals, and he competes with Zhang Udn, and his confidence is seriously insufficient.
Seeing Li Gong's melancholy and uneasy face, he still said that the Taiping Taoist in a Taoist robe was polite
said, "Don't worry, my lord. The world is in chaos, Zhang Udn is powerless to look west, one by one for our army, the most important thing at present is how to take Hexi, occupy a town in Hexi, can advance or retreat, and should be safe. β
"My lord, please see." The Taiping Daoist raised his finger and pointed to the map and said, "Yang Lian is here, Shaliuhe, and there are more than 40,000 troops in Anxi." β
"There are two strategies for the poor road, dedicated to the lord."
Li Gong said in a condensed voice, "Strategist, please speak, I will listen." β
