Chapter 197: Li Yan's Choice (3)

Li Yan didn't expect that His Majesty knew everything about himself, and his heart was even more like a mirror.

But that's fine, since they have all come to this point, then they will be completely explained, and Li Yan doesn't bother to think about what the final result is!

"Your Majesty has become selfish? The minister does not deny that in recent years, the minister has indeed tried every means to benefit himself, but there is one thing that the minister can guarantee that the minister has not harmed the interests of Shuzhong to the outside world! ”

"But do you know, Your Majesty? Since the first emperor entered Shu, those people from the Jingzhou faction, whether in the court or in private, have looked down on the original officials of Yizhou from the bottom of their hearts, and shouted as if this was their territory, but the minister wanted them to figure out a little bit first, and the land we stepped on at this time was called Yizhou! Not Jingzhou! ”

"In the past, there was Lord Xiaozhi, and they didn't dare to go too far, but the way of heaven was unfair, and Lord Xiaozhi died early, so they were even more excessive, and their Jingzhou faction had the final say in military and internal affairs!"

"It's true that the minister wants Ba County, but that's because the minister knows that Yizhou no longer belongs to us, and he can't manage Yizhou, so it's not too much to take care of Ba County!"

"When the first emperor went, let the prime minister and the minister be the ministers of Tuogu, and assist Your Majesty wholeheartedly, in fact, it was just to restrain the dispute between Yizhou and Jingzhou, but Your Majesty didn't expect that the effect was very little, Zhuge Liang was too strong, and he had no chance at all, and he didn't have the ability to influence the future of Shuzhong, so that even if there were tens of millions of ambitions, they would eventually be extinguished!"

Li Yan never stopped, and said it in one breath, as if he had finally found an outlet for the dissatisfaction he had suppressed for many years, and he would never stop until he was completely released.

However, Liu Chan did not interrupt this, and listened very carefully to Li Yan's various complaints, indeed, since the death of Fazheng, the Yizhou faction has indeed been much weaker, and it is inevitable that the Jingzhou faction will be pressed everywhere, and it is inevitable that there will be resentment!

"Are you blaming me for not giving you power?"

When Li Yan was almost done, Liu Chan asked with a smile.

"Don't dare!"

"You dare!"

Standing up, and walking back, sitting back in front of the bookcase, Liu Chan put away the smile on his face, and said to Li Yan seriously: "I can make you prime minister now!" How is it? ”

Hearing this, Li Yan's whole body tightened, although he wanted to sit in Zhuge Liang's position, but he wanted to think about it, and suddenly someone told you that his goal was going to be achieved, and it was inevitable that he would be a little unrealistic in his heart, but then again, Li Yan thought that Liu Chan was still testing him.

As if seeing Li Yan's concerns, Liu Chan smiled and took out a golden scroll from the piled up on the bookcase, waved it lightly, and threw it in front of Li Yan.

"This is the edict to worship you as the prime minister, it has been stamped with a big seal, if you have no problem, just give it to the inner servant to take it out and spread it!" At that time, you will be Prime Minister Li Cheng! ”

Hearing this, Li Yan's body tightened again, and there was a little bit of incredulity in his gaze when he looked at Liu Chan, as if asking why?

"What about Zhuge Liang? Your Majesty! ”

Li Yan asked.

"The father is the right phase, and you are the left phase!" Liu Chan explained.

Hearing this, Li Yan seemed to have figured it out, and his feelings were to add an official to himself, but he actually had to be pressed by Kong Ming!

Thinking of this, Li Yan's previous bold speculations were all in vain, and Zhuge Liang's status in His Majesty's heart was far more important than him.

"What's wrong? Is Li Duhu disappointed again? Feel like you're still being pressed by your father? In fact, Li Duhu might as well take a long-term view, although the battle of Nanzhong was a little unexpected, but I believe that the prime minister will definitely be able to completely pacify Nanzhong, dissatisfied with Li Duhu, I have already made contact with the prime minister, the prime minister is now attacking Jianning, and he will be able to go straight to Yunnan in a few days! ”

"After pacifying the south and the central, our army must turn its goal from the south to the north, and actively prepare for the great cause of the Northern Expedition. And the Northern Expedition, Hanzhong is particularly important, so you need to be in charge of your father at that time! And I plan to lead the army to conquer Chang'an! At that time, Chengdu naturally needed someone to stay, and Chengdu's location was important, not only to reflect the situation in the north, but also to pay attention to the east of Jiangdong! You are a native of Yizhou, so it is most appropriate for you to be in charge! ”

"At that time, Li Duhu's rights were not only in Ba County, but in most of Yizhou! Among them, I believe that Li Duhu can calculate the gains and losses of various interests! ”

The amount of information given by Liu Chan was inevitably a little large, which made Li Yan have to study it in detail.

It didn't take long for Li Yan to raise his head and ask, "After today's incident, will Your Majesty still trust the minister?" Entrusting the minister to Chengdu? ”

Liu Chan just bowed his head lightly and did not speak, but even so, it seemed to give Li Yan a reassuring pill and made him fall into deep thought again.

Time did not stop, and almost an hour passed in the blink of an eye, Li Yan seemed to have thought about it, and immediately asked again: "How can Your Majesty necessarily think that the Northern Expedition will be successful?" Familiar with Cao Cao's Tuntian army for nearly ten years, Cao Pi's ability to govern the country is also good, at this time the national strength of Wei is far stronger than Shu and Wu, our army rashly expeditioned, I am afraid that it is more auspicious! ”

The corners of his mouth lifted slightly, and Liu Chan smiled: "I am not sure that the Northern Expedition will win, but I want to try my best!" Moreover, the Northern Expedition is by no means a rash move, and it will be carefully deployed and fully prepared before sending troops! ”

Seeing that Li Yan was in a hurry to speak, as if he wanted to object, Liu Chan immediately raised his hand to stop it, and said again: "Li Duhu don't think it's impossible, you have to believe that everything can happen, just like Li Duhu's situation this time, has Li Duhu ever thought of it?" Of course, I don't deny that this is a big gamble, as long as we win the bet, we can enter the sea and radiate the land of the Central Plains! ”

"Then this time, does Zhuge Liang know?"

"Naturally, I asked my father about this!" Liu Chan nodded.

Then he took out a strip of cloth and handed it to Li Yan again, which was densely filled with words: "This is given to Li Duhu by his father, Li Duhu can take a look!" ”

Hearing that it was Kong Ming's letter, Li Yan was also curious about the content, and couldn't help but quickly open it and take a look, as he read the content of the letter, Li Yan's facial expression couldn't help but become very exciting, both guilty and regained his ambition!

"Is this really what Zhuge Liang meant?" Li Yan confirmed again, very puzzled in his heart.

"Naturally, it is the intention of the father, otherwise even if I have the guts, I will not dare to mess with the father!"

Li Yan also thought of this, even if Liu Chan has changed, become stronger, and can beat himself, he still can't win against Kong Ming after all! Everything still needs to be decided!

Everything is really too unbelievable, holding the letter written by Kong Ming in his hand, Li Yan couldn't help but have mixed feelings in his heart, he never expected Kong Ming to agree!

I didn't expect Kong Ming to have such a measurement, and he would actually agree that he would be promoted to the post of prime minister, and this measurement alone would not be able to win.

After hesitating again and again, Li Yan immediately knelt on the ground and shouted loudly: "Please ask Your Majesty to take back your order, it is difficult to do it!" ”
