Fang Xuanling belongs to the kind of stable person in Yang Chong's team, and almost never says arrogant words; Since Fang Xuanling said so today, he must have his own certainty, and this matter is in the past; Cui Chu asked the most critical question: "How to deal with the people in the royal family?" ”

"Statement." Yang Chong discussed this issue with Du Yan and Tianqi on the road, and said without hesitation: "Everyone in the royal family must publicly express their stance and condemn Yang Tong, and the political hall will revoke Yang Tong's official title and arrest the whole country; Those who do not condemn are Yang Tong's accomplices. We can make a promise that if Yang Tong is arrested in the Two Lakes Basin, he will be reduced to a commoner, and once Yang Tong enters Lingnan, then Yang Tong's life and death will be decided by us. ”

Cui Chu shook his head and said, "Your decision is too weak, and it is even a disguised connivance." I think that you should be the emperor and show your attitude, so that the soldiers on the front line will not hesitate, and it is logical for you to reward the world. ”

Yang Chong disagreed, saying: "This matter has been decided, so don't make any more waves." ”

Yang Gongqing clearly had a case early, and said with a smile: "It is better for Dali Temple to confiscate all of Yang Tong's property first and give it to Wang Xiongdan as military expenses for the conquest of Lingnan." ”

Now all the army's military expenses are allocated by the household department and the Privy Council, and there is no need for other arrangements at all, Yang Gongqing means to give Yang Dong's property to Wang Xiongdan, one is to sell it to Wang Xiongdan, and Yang Tong learned about it, even if he laughed at it on the surface, but he would definitely have a grudge against Wang Xiongdan. As long as Wang Xiongdan is not confused, he will definitely be able to figure out the joints, whether there is a letter from Du Fuwei or not, he will obey Chang'an.

Ling Jing said worriedly: "If Yang Tong can't hide, we will kill flies with a knife and leave a laughing stock in vain." ”

Yang Chong remembered that Wei Shuhuan said that Ning Changzhen's body was dying, and he pondered and said: "If Yang Tong doesn't want to move, he won't leave, let's change our thinking, will it be that Ning Changzhen's time is running out." Wei Shuhuan and our secret agents in Lingnan all said so, someone looking for Yang Tong just wanted to take advantage of this opportunity. ”

Fang Yanzao frowned and said, "Who could that be?" ”

"Yang Gongren." Wei Yunqi, who had been silent, said amazingly: "Among the people who disappeared from Li Tang, only Yang Gongren and Li Yuan can't confirm it, those people in Lingnan only recognize strength and money, and don't pay attention to strategy, if it were Li Yuan, I'm afraid he would have been tied up and sent to Chang'an for reward." Yang Gongren is really old with Feng Ang and Ning Chang, and now the country name is still Dasui, so Yang Gongren can pull the tiger skin as a big banner and play this big game of chess. ”

When Wei Yunqi and Yang Gongren were fighting against Yang Xuangan, they became mortal enemies because of their different strategic deployments, and among the people present, although Yang Chong and Yang Gongren were relatively close, I am afraid that their understanding of Yang Gongren was not as good as Wei Yunqi. Liang Shuo's eyes lit up and said: "Li Yuan will not let Yang Gongren go for no reason, will Li Tang's remnants make waves behind his back, including Yuan Tiangang and Zhen Xueqing, they are all in Lingnan." ”

Yuan Wuji clapped his hands and said: "Don't scare yourself, we might as well directly give orders to Wang Xiongdan and Murong Xixiong, mobilize troops to Lingnan, and be ready to go south at any time." As for the situation, even if the three prefectures of Lingnan are completely opposed, it is only against the will of the people, and the people of the Central Plains are safe, and most areas have solved the food problem, and they will not rush to the rebellion as they did in previous years. ”

Yang Chong thought for a while and said, "Let's divide the work, and those who can't come or can't come due to illness will not arrange tasks for the time being." The Privy Council began to prepare for the war against Lingnan, Shangshu Province urged Dali Temple to dispose of Yang Dong's property, Fang Xuanling was responsible for the screening of personnel in Chang'an, and the Ministry of War and Ministry of Officials began to adjust officials in various places. Inform the counties in the south of the Yangtze River that Yang Tong wants to see people alive and see corpses, and he will be rewarded with 1,000 taels of gold if he catches people, and 300 taels of gold if he brings back the corpse; All those who assisted Yang Tong in escaping were to be handed over to Dali Temple for trial as accomplices. ”

Yang Chong's last sentence is the point, if there is no requirement to catch the job, the people below will be much easier, but for Yang Tong, he will always be in danger from now on. But no one here spoke out against it, Yang Tong is now fighting against Yang Chong, and what he values is the throne; These people are all allies of Yang Chong, and they don't care about Yang Tong's life and death from their hearts.

Yang Gongqing reminded: "King Yue, if Yuan Tiangang and Zhen Xueqing are really in Lingnan, I am worried about the safety of Wang Xiongdan, so I ask the masters of Taoism and Buddhism to help." ”

Yuan Tiangang is outstanding, Zhen Xueqing is strong in martial arts, and Yang Gongqing is clearly not worried that Wang Xiongtan will be defeated on the battlefield, but worried that Wang Xiongtan will die at the hands of assassins. Yang Chong lowered his head and thought about it for a while and said: "Yes, let the Maoshan Sect and the Jiangdu Four Great Dao Fields be in charge of this matter, in addition, Wang Xiongdan still lacks a strategist, Ling Jing, you go for a trip, by the way, ask your father-in-law, who has a good relationship with him, ask him to write a letter." ”

Li Wang, the county prince of Xi'an, is the only person in Lingnan who is sent by the Li family in Longxi to come back alive, thanks to Yang Chong and Ling Jing, because of Ling Jing's relationship, Feng Ang takes good care of Li Wang. Yang Chong's words were to let Ling Jing return the favor, and Li Wang even had hope of restoring the title; Ling Jing was overjoyed and immediately agreed, asking Fang Xuanling to hurry up and draw up the documents. Fang Xuanling said with a smile: "Don't worry, I'm here to discuss matters in the political hall, and those official seals are still in the Privy Council." ”

Everyone burst into laughter, Yang Chong got up and said, "Let's discuss here today, I want to go back to the Yue Palace, and ask Lu Yanqing and others to come over the mansion to discuss, there are still some things that need to be spread out." When I have the result, I will notify you as soon as possible, Ling Jing, when I leave, I will ask Sikong Xing for a good horse. ”

No matter how Yang Chong insists on his opinion, the weight of the scholar clan in the Great Sui is heavy, Cui Chuzhi can no longer be regarded as the representative of the five surnames and seven hopes, and Lu Yanqing and Wang Shuyu are the spokespersons for communication between the two sides. As long as Yang Chong is not ready to kill, negotiation is a necessary process, everyone nodded in understanding, and they were busy with their own stalls.

Yang Chong got out of the palace and got into the carriage before asking Tianqi: "What is Jiang Duo's attitude?" ”

Tianqi showed an embarrassed expression and said: "I offended people again, Jiang Duo's subordinates were going to interrogate Du Fuwei's envoys, but they were stopped by Zhang Liang and them, but fortunately, Meng Fu appeared in time and said good things for a long time to calm down the matter." ”

Yang Chong naturally knew what Meng Tuo said about it, thought about it and said: "This matter is nothing, each performing his own duties is the rule of the imperial court, I believe Jiang Duo can understand; Zhang Liang's courage has risen is a good thing, he was too shy in the past, but I heard that Zhang Liang is learning from Du Fuwei to accept Yizi, you have to persuade him that such a thing is not allowed in the Hundred Cavalry Camp, and if it really doesn't work, transfer Zhang Liang to another place. ”
