Text 450 Fang Xianzhong's interpretation
Li Xian originally didn't plan to harm Li Hong with the death of Li Zhong and Helan Minyue to force him to mess with himself.
I thought that with Li Hong's character, after the Shangshu Provincial Shangshu Order was sealed, he would naturally become arrogant and carried away, and he would become more greedy for power, so that he could secretly add fuel to the fire, forcing him and his father to step by step towards the opposite side of the struggle for power and profit, and then provide himself with an opportunity to take advantage of.
But I didn't expect that this Luoyang trip and the matter of Liyangcang not only did not involve Li Hong, but did not let him and Uncle Ji stand up to him, but instead made Uncle Ji look at Li Hong differently, and he was more courteous.
And the next father's imperial expedition gave Li Hong an excellent opportunity to consolidate the crown prince's position, win over the courtiers, and handle government affairs.
So as a last resort, in order to prevent Li Hong from being able to smoothly supervise the country in Chang'an, Li Xian had no choice but to use the deaths of Li Zhong and Helan Minyue to make Li Hong unable to supervise the country with peace of mind, hoping to force Li Hong to force him to have a situation of being left and right, leaking bigger flaws, and giving himself a chance to take advantage of it, so that his position as the crown prince became shaky.
But after all the series of actions were made, they were easily resolved by Li Hong, especially the matter between Li Zhong and Helan Minyue, which didn't hurt Li Hong at all! Not only did he completely trap him in the position of the crown prince, but he was also summoned to Liaodong by his father by mistake, and now there are rumors that his father may be on the throne.
All this information from Ge Xiyuan made Li Xian have to feel the urgency of the situation and greater pressure, if he wants to make a difference, and he still wants to get involved in the position of the crown prince, then he can't sit still, he must come up with a better strategy to force Li Hong to make a mistake.
But now that Li Hong has firmly controlled the initiative and does not leave any chance for himself at all, what else can he do? This made him have to take a risk, planning to rebel like his father's brother Li Chengqian!
"My father has never called himself me for many years, and this time in Liaodong, not only did he call himself me several times, but also the Liaodong war was handed over to Li Hong to deal with, all of which is not a good phenomenon." Li Xian's tone was heavy, everything was very unfavorable to him now.
Fang Xianzhong still smiled confidently and said, "King Pei, Your Majesty claims that I won't say if it's true, even if it's true, what can it mean?" Although Your Majesty's dragon health is not good, there has been no indication that Your Majesty has abdicated to let Kenichi say it. What's more, in Liaodong, His Majesty himself is not good at warfare, and the crown prince Li Hong has been fighting in Anxi for many years, and has made great achievements, standing in His Majesty's position, after all, it is the first time to drive a personal expedition, if you can't win a complete victory, won't it make Your Majesty's face ugly? So you don't have to worry too much about it. Summoning His Royal Highness the Crown Prince into Liaodong is just for the sake of war, as for what Zen position, the minister thinks it is completely groundless and out of nothing. ”
"Then you mean that Ge Xiyuan is in Liaodong, but he misinterpreted the meaning of his father?" Li Xian still frowned, Fang Xianzhong's words could not relax his tangled heart.
Fang Xianzhong smiled confidently and calmly, and said with a whisker: "King Pei, if you are Your Majesty, once the war in Liaodong is won, then the establishment of the Andong Protectorate is naturally an imminent matter. And who has the most credit for this battle? Who has the most positions? ”
"Naturally, it's the prince, needless to say." Li Xian replied subconsciously.
"What King Pei said is true, but after the establishment of the Andong Metropolitan Protectorate, His Majesty appointed Ge Xiyuan to hold such a sensitive and important position, but instead did not let His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who has the greatest credit and has the experience of serving as the protector of the Anxi Metropolitan Protector, not explain some worrying problems?"
Fang Xianzhong looked at Li Xian in contemplation, and continued: "Your Majesty, doesn't you know that Ge Xiyuan is your person King Pei? I think His Majesty must know, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince probably also knows, right? After all, by inviting many of them to write books, you have already proved to others that you have brought them under your door, and they have also branded Peiwang as you, right? ”
"That's right, if I am my father, if there is a Zen position, then in the matter of appointing the Dadu Protector of the Andong Metropolitan Protectorate, it is naturally the appointment of the crown prince who has contributed the most to the Liaodong War, not Ge Xiyuan. Anxi Protectorate is now in the hands of Li Hong, although the person is not in Anxi, but still governs Anxi in an orderly manner, if the father does not have the intention of guarding, he should appoint Li Hong as the protector of Andong Metropolitan Protectorate, after all, with Anxi as a reference, Li Hongdu should be the most suitable candidate. ”
"Yes, King Pei is smart, but His Majesty has appointed Ge Xiyuan as the protector of the capital! Not only did he appoint Ge Xiyuan as the protector of the capital, but the military general left Liu Renliang, not Xue Rengui! What does this mean? It shows that His Majesty does not want to! Unwilling! Beware of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince getting involved with Anton! Among all the princes, the crown prince Li Hongshi has the right to serve as the protector of the Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate, and then only you will lead the Yunzhong Metropolitan Protectorate, and now the Anton Metropolitan Protectorate will also be served by Ge Xiyuan, could it be said that in this arrangement, Your Majesty has the intention of abdicating and making way for the virtuous? Fang Xianzhong smiled and brushed his beard, as if everything was under his control, and his expression at this moment was like Zhuge Wolong's, the temperament of the world between talking and laughing.
Li Xian's expression finally relaxed, a matter that had been entangled in his heart for a long time finally disappeared under Fang Xianzhong's doubts, and the whole person had an indescribable sense of ease and pleasure.
Originally, based on his judgment of the situation, that is, to raise troops to control the Daming Palace first, and then when his father and the prince returned to Chang'an, he unexpectedly controlled the two, and then seized the military power, and after returning to Chang'an, he forced his father to abolish Li Hong's position as the crown prince, and after a year or two, he let his father and emperor Chan settle for himself.
Such a plan, although it was a risky and extremely risky one, was the only way I could think of at that time.
But today, after Fang Xianzhong solved his doubts, he saw that in the future, his eyes suddenly became clear, so that he could continue to set up a situation and plan some things, so as to prevent Li Hong from getting involved in the throne.
Fang Xianzhong shook his head and smiled, and said: "King Pei, if it weren't for the ministers to hit your morale and increase the ambition of His Royal Highness the Prince, in terms of military strength, the troops you secretly control in your hands are not the opponent of the troops in the prince's hands at all." If you want to control the Daming Palace, it can be said that it is even more difficult. ”
"Oh? Daming Palace is now missing 20,000 gold guards, do you think I can't take it down? Li Xian didn't believe that the generals he was secretly controlling now had at least fifty or sixty thousand soldiers and horses that could be mobilized, could he not take the Daming Palace with all his might?
Although it is said that Daming Palace is easy to defend and difficult to attack, after Li Hong's original participation and design, it has become more difficult to attack, but it does not mean that there is no possibility that it is not!
Fang Xianzhong had a little less smile on his face at this time, and said with a little more solemnity: "There is absolutely no possibility of success, although the minister does not know the meaning, but since you left the Daming Palace with King Ying and King Yin, the guards of the harem have more than 1,000 elite soldiers, and these elite soldiers are not Jin Wuwei, but the 1,000 soldiers of the floating slaughter battalion left by the crown prince Li Hong when he went out to Liaodong." In the end, Fang Xianzhong's face was high
