Wang Yuan frowned slightly, feeling that the name Yuan Mingyuan was so familiar, as if he had seen it there, but he couldn't remember it for a while. The position of director of the chamberlain is not low, this is the original position of Gao Lishi in the palace, it can be seen that this Yuan Mingyuan must be the most trusted person by Li Mao's side.

"Supervisor Yuan, it's polite. It's been a long journey, and it's been hard. Wang Yuan arched his hand.

"No hard work, no hard work, I was ordered by Your Majesty to come to pass the decree to commend Wang Xiangguo and other meritorious ministers in countering the rebellion, and at the same time brought some of Your Majesty's instructions. Anyway, everyone is here? If you have come, I will begin to proclaim the decree. After the announcement, let's talk privately. Yuan Mingyuan said with a smile.

Wang Yuan nodded and said, "Very good, it's important to get down to business first." Basically, everyone has come, Gao Xianzhi is in Anxi Road, he is back to Anxi to see the old handover, and he can't catch up at the moment, and I will thank him on his behalf. ”

Yuan Mingyuan smiled: "Okay, that's the only way." ”

At present, the government hall is being cleared, and no one is invited to the courtyard outside, and only the relevant people remain in the hall. That Yuan Mingyuan stood in the middle of the hall, asked for the holy decree from the hands of his entourage, glanced at Wang Yuan and more than a dozen other officials kneeling in front of him, and slowly unfolded the holy decree with his orchid fingers.

"The majestic Celestial Empire, the prestige is far-reaching, the heroes are well-known, and they are divided into four directions. A few days ago, I was overjoyed to receive the good news of Chuzhou, and I was overjoyed to learn that the rebels had been exterminated by the Shence army, and I couldn't sleep at night. Since the day the thieves started their troops, the wolf smoke has risen everywhere, and the people have been devastated, poisoning our Tang Sheji, as for the broken rivers and mountains, the world is unsafe. Fortunately, my Tang Dynasty has loyal ministers and good generals, soldiers who swear to death, so they can cleanse the thieves, restore the peace of the world, and relieve the displacement of the people. Xiang Wang Yuan, since the day he entered the dynasty, he has made great contributions to my Tang Dynasty. At the beginning of the southern barbarians, he punished the Tibetans, stuck to the territory, and was diligent and loyal to the king. When there is more chaos, the mainstay, Ma Weipo, sets things right. The emperor was fortunate to welcome the emperor, resisted the arrogance of the rebels, and reversed the situation, which is known to the world. At the last moment, Wang Xiangguo saw through the rebels' attempts, led the Tang Dynasty to guide the soldiers, sent thousands of miles to the land, stepped on the land of Jianghuai, and quelled the rebels with the momentum of thunder. Since then, the subjects of the world are all inspired and delighted when they hear it, and they all feel its earth-shattering achievements. I Jiaqigong, specially aimed to enter the king of Xiping County, Wangyuan, 5,000 households, and the title is hereditary. In addition, the opening of the palace with the three divisions, give the best purple gold fish bag, a pair of golden dragon jade belt, and reward the royal car driving Luanyi. He was given to his wife, Mrs. Shu, a hundred horses of silk and 200,000 yuan. Give the eldest daughter the lord of Jiannan, the eldest son first-class Jiannanhou, and the second son second-class Jiannanhou. wives and concubines and children, and other gifts ......"

Before the decree was read, everyone in the hall had changed color. From the moment they heard that Wang Yuan was named the king of Xiping, everyone's brains buzzed non-stop. It is not without precedent for the Tang Dynasty to be crowned kings with different surnames, but most of them happened during the founding period of the Tang Dynasty, and only a few of the founding heroes who followed Gaozu Taizong to conquer the Quartet were crowned kings. And with the stability of the Tang Dynasty's rule, it is basically impossible to be crowned a king with a different surname. No matter how great the merit of the living heroes, they will not be able to enjoy this glory. Of course, posthumously sealing after death is another matter. But now, Wang Yuan has been crowned king. In addition to the clan royal family, Wang Yuan may be the only county king who is currently alive. What a glory it is. Not to mention the opening of the palace and the three divisions, these fictitious titles and officials. Don't talk about the special cases of entry and exit etiquette in the future.

Wang Yuan was also surprised, he didn't expect that he would be crowned king. He originally thought that this holy decree must be a symbolic reward for himself, and he might be promoted to a knighthood, but he didn't expect it to be so heavy. And he was going to the court to resign.

“…… Wang Yuan's request for remarks was rejected by me. Wang Yuan still served as the right minister, and also led the Jiannan Hexi Longyou three sections of the envoy. Wang Yuan was allowed to stay in Jiannan and be summoned to the capital when the situation stabilized. During Wang Yuan's stay in Chengdu, his affairs were temporarily replaced by others, and Wang Yuan was consulted to make a decision. ……”

Yuan Mingyuan's voice was still echoing in the hall, and the content of the next holy decree was about the rest of the meritorious officials. Gao Xianzhi was added as a first-class duke and appointed as the squire of the Anxi Jiedu Envoy and the Military Department. Liu Jun was awarded the title of third-class duke, and was appointed as the general of Qianniuwei, and was appointed as the envoy of Hexi. Song Jiangong, Li Mi, Liu Dehai, Zhao Qing, Tan Ping, and dozens of generals were all added to the ranks, and each had a reward. The rest of the rewards for the middle-level generals within the Shence Army are subject to Wang Yuan's discretion and can be submitted to the Ministry of War for approval.

This decree was handed down and proclaimed for a full quarter of an hour. But with Yuan Mingyuan's long shout of 'Receiving the Decree and Thanks', in the roar of everyone's thanks, the will was finally announced.

Yuan Mingyuan handed over the holy decree to Wang Yuan's hands, laughed and arched his hand: "Congratulations to Xiangguo, the emperor's grace is mighty, Xiangguo is now the king of the county." From now on, we all have to change our words to be called the prince. ”

The officials and generals even claimed that they were, and the voices of congratulations were endless, and the atmosphere in the hall was suddenly warm and joyful.

Wang Yuan smiled and returned the salute, thinking about the intention of this holy decree in his heart. Reward is secondary, Wang Yuan thinks about Li Mao's rejection of his resignation, and seems to be accommodating himself with the most extensive tolerance. Let yourself still be the right minister, and tell yourself that I don't force you to come to the capital to serve now, you can come whenever you want. And Wang Yuan's most sensitive thing is about the departure and stay of the Shence Army and the position of the Jiedu envoy of the right three provinces of Jiannan Hexi Long, Li Mao seemed to know Wang Yuan's vigilance, and he was not touched by this, and still let Wang Yuan concurrently serve as the envoy of the three festivals, so that Wang Yuan could be the princes of his side steadily, and it was justifiable.

All this is incredible in Wang Yuan's opinion, could it be said that Li Mao really eliminated his hostility towards himself and decided to live peacefully with himself? Could it be that he will settle his old suspicions with himself, and will he not mind that he has self-respect? Could it be that his previous judgments were all wrong? Li Mao is not hostile to herself at all?

The answer is obviously no, but the intention behind this perfect decree is worth pondering.

"King Xiping, how about we take a step to speak? Your Majesty still has a few words of advice, which should not be announced in public. In the midst of the commotion, Yuan Mingyuan leaned close to Wang Yuan's ear and whispered.

Wang Yuan smiled and nodded, he knew that the holy decree was actually just words on the surface, and the next oracle to be announced was the point. The rest of the conversation will really expose the psychological activities of Li Mao and Li Guangbi.

"Okay, I'll go to my public room to speak, and Yuan Neijian will please." Wang Yuan said in a deep voice.

Yuan Mingyuan nodded again and again, and waved his hand at the officials in the hall and said, "You guys sit down for a while, I still have something to say to King Xiping, so I won't accompany you." The first time I came to Chengdu, I have long heard that Jinguancheng is the most beautiful spring, and I hope you can guide me to play it. ”

"King Xiping and Yuan Neijian please feel free, Yuan Neijian has Yaxing, and my Chengdu officials naturally want to do their best to be a landlord. Please, please. The officials bowed their hands one after another.

The officials bowed to each other, and watched Wang Yuan and Yuan Mingyuan leave the hall of the political affairs hall, and after a while, there was a lot of discussion. This holy decree just now gave them too much shock, and more than a dozen of the commended generals of the Shence Army were also surrounded by them to congratulate them, and they liked to join in the fun, shouting for them to treat them to eat and drink.

Wang Yuan and Yuan Mingyuan walked out of the hall surrounded by dozens of personal guards and retinues, and went east through the vertical gate on the east side of the compound to Wang Yuan's public housing courtyard. Seeing Wang Yuan's arrival, the little officials hurriedly greeted him, Wang Yuan let Yuan Mingyuan sit in the public room, and after ordering the little officials to serve tea, he waved away everyone, leaving only the two of them alone.

"Yuan Neijian, please use tea. Chengdu is a deserted place, not as good as the capital, I don't have any good tea here, just a cup of tea, see a smile and laugh. Wang Yuan personally poured tea for Yuan Mingyuan and said with a smile.

Yuan Mingyuan sat on the mahogany chair, cocked Erlang's legs and said with a smile: "King Xiping is too humble, Shu is the country of abundance, and Chengdu is a land of treasures. I heard that after the king of Xiping came to Jiannan, the land of Jiannan became more and more prosperous, the population surged, and the agriculture and commerce flourished. Liangjing has been trampled by rebels, and now it is not as good as Chengdu. ”

Wang Yuan laughed and said: "This cowhide can be blown up, how can Chengdu be compared with the two capitals." Yuan Neijian can really speak. By the way, Yuan Neijian, I heard your Xiping King Xiping call like this, and I felt very awkward. Just call it by its name. I'm not used to the title of King of Xiping. ”

Yuan Mingyuan laughed and said, "You are not used to it." Once you're used to it, you'll love it. But since you feel awkward, our family still calls you Xiangguo, and you don't dare to call him by his name. Xiangguo is a celestial figure in my Tang Dynasty, and I, Yuan Mingyuan, am just an ant on the ground, how dare I call Xiangguo by name? ”

Wang Yuan didn't want to talk nonsense with him, so he waved his hand and said: "What is heaven and earth, what Yuan Neijian said is inevitably too much." Eunuch Yuan, what is Your Majesty's message, can it be announced at this moment? ”

Yuan Mingyuan said with a smile: "Okay, then our family won't waste Xiangguo's precious time." Your Majesty asked me to bring a few words, please listen to Xiangguo. ”

Wang Yuan hurriedly stood up, picked up his official uniform and wanted to kneel down to listen to the announcement, Yuan Mingyuan hurriedly waved his hand and said, "No, no, this is not a decree." His Majesty said it, just a few words, and Xiangguo listened to it in his heart. ”

Wang Yuan arched his hand and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty." Oh, listen up. ”

Yuan Mingyuan coughed and cleared his throat, and said in a low voice: "Xiangguo." Feng Wang Li Hui, Yi Wang Li Pu, Ying Wang Li Xuan, Yongwang Li Xuan and others raised and trained anti-rebel soldiers and horses in the Hexi area, and now has tens of thousands of soldiers. Originally, it was understandable to recruit troops to quell the rebellion, but now that the rebellion has been quelled for several months, they should disband their troops and return to the capital. However, His Majesty had already issued an order asking them to disband their troops and horses and return to Beijing to see them, but instead of disbanding them, they expanded their forces and practiced endlessly, and they did not even have a letter of explanation. Xiangguo should know about this. ”

Wang Yuan frowned and said: "I know that they trained the counterinsurgency soldiers and horses, and they wanted to serve the country at the beginning, which is understandable. Didn't Your Majesty also recruit troops for counterinsurgency? But I don't know what happened later, you know that I have just returned to Chengdu for only half a month, and I was in the army and on the road before. I don't know anything about His Majesty's order for them to disband. ”

Yuan Mingyuan nodded and said, "There are extenuating circumstances, extenuating circumstances." Now Sangkook already knows. His Majesty meant that Xiangguo was asked to come forward to persuade several princes to disband their soldiers and horses and return to the capital. Now that the situation is preliminary, all kinds of waste are waiting to be revived, and His Majesty has a lot of reliance on several princes, and hopes that they can enter Beijing as soon as possible to serve and share His Majesty's worries. ”

Wang Yuan nodded slightly and said, "It should be like this, but it's not good for me to come forward in this matter." Your Majesty and the princes are brothers, and Your Majesty will call them back to Beijing by decree. They won't be unaware. ”

Yuan Mingyuan frowned and said, "Xiangguo, you won't not understand what is going on here." In this way, let's make it clear, and none of the princes have played congratulations since the day His Majesty ascended the throne. In the almost year since His Majesty ascended the throne, there has not been a single book in Beijing, which is not a trivial matter. There are a lot of rumors outside, and some say that these princes are going to do something rebellious. His Majesty is a person who values brotherhood, and he does not want these remarks to be circulated outside the world, causing a lot of trouble. But these princes did this, openly disobeyed the holy decree, ignored His Majesty's will, and went his own way, what would His Majesty think in his heart? ”

Wang Yuan smacked his lips and said, "It's a little troublesome." What does Your Majesty want to do? ”

"Your Majesty wants Wang Xiangguo to come forward to persuade them. After all, they were also approved by Xiangguo to recruit troops at the beginning, and Xiangguo also had the responsibility to let them stop. And Xiangguo doesn't want to say that their money, food, and armor are all self-raised, I'm afraid they are all taken from Xiangguo. Therefore, Xiangguo came forward, which can be compared to His Majesty's holy decree. Because if Xiangguo doesn't support their money, food and materials, they won't be able to last a day. Yuan Mingyuan said in a deep voice.

Wang Yuan's face sank and said: "It turns out that Your Majesty thinks that the ministers are secretly supporting them, and Your Majesty has wronged me." I didn't expect His Majesty to think that. ”

Yuan Mingyuan said: "Isn't it? Xiangguo, let's talk in private, real people don't tell lies, don't hide it. Xiangguo's original intention was to quell the rebellion, and there was nothing wrong with that. But now it's different. ”

Wang Yuan frowned and said, "I agreed to their recruitment at the beginning, but I didn't let them resist the order. I didn't fund their money, food, and supplies, maybe my generals gave them some, but I didn't know anything about it. If Your Majesty thinks that I am behind them to resist the decree, it will be a great wrong. ”

Yuan Mingyuan hurriedly said: "Xiangguo don't think crookedly, Your Majesty didn't say that you supported them to resist the decree, but asked Xiangguo to come forward to help mediate and persuade him." If there is no mediation, will this matter become out of control? Sangkook doesn't want to see things get out of hand, does he? Neither do we want to see that. ”

Wang Yuan thought for a while and said, "Okay, I can go and ask about the situation, but Lord Feng, they may not listen to me." ”

Yuan Mingyuan leaned back in the chair, sighed and said, "Xiangguo should do his best, otherwise Xiangguo will have more trouble in the future." Your Majesty said that if Xiangguo intervenes to mediate and they are still obsessed, then Your Majesty can only abandon brotherhood and use the law of the country. It's a matter of time. If the princes refuse to disband their soldiers and horses and return to Beijing, then Your Majesty has only one choice. And this matter still has to fall on Xiangguo, they are on the territory under the jurisdiction of Xiangguo, and His Majesty is afraid that he will order Xiangguo's Shence Army to exterminate several princes. Won't Xiangguo find it more tricky when the time comes? ”

Wang Yuan understood that Li Mao was trying to solve the threat of Li Hui and others with his own hands. This abacus is really shrewd, knowing that he is the supporter behind Li Heng and others, but he wants to solve this problem for him by himself, and the ghost has arrived home. If Li Mao really ordered himself to send troops to exterminate Li Heng and the others, he would be really tricky. It is impossible to send troops to exterminate Li Heng, but if you don't send troops, it will be a rebellion.

Seeing Wang Yuan's frowns, Yuan Mingyuan was proud in his heart, and said in a low voice: "Xiangguo, if Your Majesty wants to bring it personally, Xiangguo will think it out on his own." After our family returns to Beijing, we have to report to Your Majesty, so before our family leaves Chengdu, I hope that Xiangguo will give me an answer and let me finish my errand. ”

Wang Yuan raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Don't think about it, I just do it according to Your Majesty's wishes." Tomorrow, I will send someone to meet Prince Feng and them, and ask them to disband their soldiers and horses and return to Beijing as soon as possible. If they do not come to their senses, I ask Your Majesty to decree that I will personally lead the army to settle the matter. ”

Yuan Mingyuan was stunned for a moment, then raised his fingers and praised: "Okay, Xiangguo is really simple." When I came, some people said that Xiangguo and Prince Feng had a very personal relationship, and said that I conveyed such an oracle for His Majesty, and Xiangguo was not happy. He also said that the prime minister was hesitant. Now it seems that these words are all nonsense. Xiangguo is a person who knows the overall situation and the general situation, how can he abolish the public because of private interests? ”

Wang Yuan smiled and said: "It is the duty of every courtier to be loyal to the court. Naturally, I can't be an exception. What His Majesty wants, is what the courtiers want, and the ministers will faithfully carry out His Majesty's will and solve problems for His Majesty. ”

Yuan Mingyuan laughed and said, "That's right, I completely agree." ”

Wang Yuan also laughed.

Yuan Mingyuan took a sip of tea, and said in a deep voice: "The second thing is about the Emperor Taishang. A few months ago, His Majesty sent someone to Chengdu to pick up the Emperor Taishang and return to Beijing to recuperate. But the emperor was reluctant to return to the capital. In his letter to His Majesty, the Emperor said that he felt that Chengdu was very good to live in, and the climate was suitable, which was beneficial to the emperor's dragon body. His Majesty was very worried after receiving the letter, and His Majesty said that although the Emperor himself did not want to return to Beijing, the rebellion had been quelled, and if he did not receive the Emperor back
