Chapter 419: Must Be With It First (2)

Li Yuanji may not know how to govern the country, but he is very proficient in the matter of marching and fighting, Zhang Gongjin's department is a defeated division, how can it be comparable to the elite under Li Yuanji?

Zhang Wensu waved his hand and said with a smile: "Your Highness doesn't need to worry. ”

Let me not be in a hurry, how can I not be in a hurry? Li Yuanji is my only possible ally, although the forces in his hands are not enough to compete with Luoyang Chang'an, but in any case, he is in Shanxi, and Li Xuanba does not dare to act too rashly. And I spent so much effort to take back Jinyang from Xiao Yu's hands for him before, how could I easily lose it again.

Zhang Wensu looked at me, and he didn't seem to care, but said softly: "Zhang Gongjin was originally a staff member of the Qin Palace, how loyal he is to Li Shimin, Wensu suspects that he is still loyal to Li Shimin, but I don't know what happened halfway, but Li Shimin himself does not know this. ”

My heart moved, and I remembered that when I met Li Shimin that day, although he knew what had happened in Luoyang, he didn't seem to know much about his own people stirring up trouble in Luoyang City.

Wang Jue listened to Zhang Wensu's words, and also smiled: "Shu Jue heard about the defeat of His Royal Highness the King of Qi in Shanxi before, and he also had doubts in his heart, but now that he thinks about it, it turned out to be designed by Mr. Zhang, so in this way, His Royal Highness the King of Qi wants to give Jinyang to them again?" ”

Zhang Wensu nodded, and I suddenly realized in my heart, if Zhang Gongjin was Li Shimin's person, Xiao Yu was just a pawn who was instigated, if Li Shimin was allowed to return to Jinyang, he would definitely follow his father's example when he raised troops in Jinyang and went all the way south, and his father chose Chang'an between Chang'an and Luoyang. If Li Shimin really comes this far, then whether he chooses Chang'an or Luoyang, it will only be good for me.

If he captures Chang'an, I can justifiably lead my troops to attack, if he chooses Luoyang, the snipe and the clam fight, I just sit on the fisherman's advantage.

Zhang Wensu listened to Wang Qi's words, and said with a smile: "The art of war is cloudy, 'if you want to take it, you must first deal with it', Wensu has persuaded His Royal Highness the King of Qi to give up Jinyang City, as for the future, His Royal Highness will wait for the King of Qi to come to discuss how about it?" ”

Giving up Jinyang so lightly, I actually had a hard time in my heart, but Zhang Wensu didn't care at first, if it weren't for the long time of friendship, I would almost think that he was joking with me and Li Yuanji.

While I was pondering, Zhang Wensu arched his hand to Wang Jue and said, "Brother Shu Jue is sick, and His Royal Highness and Wensu are so bothered, I really don't want to go. Your Highness, let's take our leave! He said and looked at me.

Hearing this, Wang Qi got up and smiled: "It's okay to be bored in your illness." ”

I knew that Zhang Wensu had something to say to me, so I nodded, got up and said, "Mr. Wang, I'll come back another day to ask for advice." ”

Wang Qi smiled.

Out of Wang Jue's residence, Zhang Wensu said as he walked: "Your Highness doesn't want to give Jinyang away?" ”

When I heard this, my heart moved, it turned out that Zhang Wensu already knew my thoughts.

Zhang Wensu said with a smile: "If His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wants Jinyang not to lose, Wensu has a plan, but I don't know if His Highness can adopt it." ”

I thought that Zhang Wensu would have no room for maneuver to give up Jinyang to Zhang Gongjin on his own, but when he said this, I knew that there was still room for things to turn around, so I asked: "Sir, it's okay to talk about it." ”

Zhang Wensu bowed his hand to me and said, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is unwilling to enter Chang'an, so as not to embarrass the emperor?" ”

I nodded.

Zhang Wensu said again: "In this case, why doesn't Your Highness hide among the rivers and lakes and stop paying attention to these things?" ”

I was stunned when I heard this, then shook my head and said, "I promised Zimin." ”

Zhang Wensu said: "Since it is impossible to avoid it, it is necessary to come sooner or later, Wensu advises His Highness to make plans as soon as possible." ”

I really don't know what these words have to do with keeping Jinyang from being lost, knowing that Zhang Wensu has always been outspoken, but now he is beating around the bush and saying impatiently: "Mr. has always been straightforward, and it is better to speak bluntly if there is any strategy." ”

Zhang Wensu smiled, but said with a straight face: "Your Highness, as a member of the Tang royal family, did not obey Luoyang's orders, but occupied Hebei and was an enemy of Luoyang, in terms of it, this is already a rebellion." Since you have rebelled, why not be thorough? Now that you are thinking about the emperor who is far away in Chang'an, Wen Su is afraid that the emperor has regarded His Royal Highness as a traitor. ”

He was right, I had to nod my head, but said, "Father won't ......"

Zhang Wensu said: "Back then, His Royal Highness, as the prince, did not have any transgressions, and acted properly, the emperor still suspected that His Royal Highness could not tolerate his siblings, and Wen Su Baisi didn't know why. His Royal Highness drove Li Shimin away in Chang'an before, and now he is an enemy of Li Xuanba, who is already a king, so blatantly, the emperor is suspicious of His Royal Highness, won't it be even worse than before? ”

As he spoke, I was thinking about the past, and my mind turned around, and I suddenly thought of what Li Xuanba said in Xianren Palace that day - we are not brothers in the first place......

Don't...... Could it be that Daddy already knows?

Even if he doesn't know, now that I am openly an enemy of Li Xuanba, he may not tell his father, who is old.

Thinking of this, I was even more shocked, and when I looked at Zhang Wensu, he was also looking at me thoughtfully.

I arched my hand and said, "Sir, please teach me." ”

Zhang Wensu saw that I said solemnly, but smiled softly and said, "There are two ways to go now. The first is to abandon Jinyang, and send it to Li Shimin to see what he can do, if the king of Qi comes to defect to His Royal Highness, there will be one less enemy. ”

He was right, if Li Yuanji was convinced that I was not his brother, he might not have helped me.

Zhang Wensu continued: "Second, His Royal Highness might as well give up the identity of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, claim the king in Hebei, and at the same time ask Chen Bing to the border and threaten the King of Qi, he will not dare to act rashly, and at the same time, His Royal Highness will send Xu Shiqian to attack Liyang, occupy Liyang Cang, and then go west to seize Chang'an." ”

After Zhang Wensu said this, he exhaled softly.

After listening to these words, my heart was very heavy, no matter which way I chose, it would inevitably make my father embarrassed in the end, and my unspeakable identity became the biggest gap between my father and me.

Use the Turks to deter Li Yuanji, and with what I know about Li Yuanji, he will not be threatened at all.

Now, I have to gamble again.

I sorted out my chaotic thoughts and said to Zhang Wensu: "In my opinion, it is better to take a compromise approach. ”

Zhang Wensu said "oh" and said, "Your Highness, please speak." ”

I said: "Let Jinyang out, and attack Liyangcang at the same time, but we won't make a move, find someone else." ”

Zhang Wensu said: "Who are you looking for?" ”

I said, "Qingyu Pavilion." ”

Zhang Wensu was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said: "This is impossible, His Royal Highness is no longer the pavilion master now, and Cao Fu will never let the Qingyu Pavilion people act like this." ”

I smiled and said, "What if you let Xu Shimo and Feng Li lead people to attack?" ”
