"What a person to be prepared for danger in times of peace!" Sun Sheng sneered, and said: "So what you mean is to snub the Han people, so that the Han people have a grudge against the Tang Dynasty, so as to contact the Wu Yue people to jointly attack the Tang Dynasty?" ”

Liu Renzhan's words did not mean that, but Sun Sheng's misinterpretation made everyone think that Liu Renzhan opposed an alliance with the Han State and would let the Han people join forces with Wu Yueguo. And the recent movements of Wu Yueguo also show that all this is very likely.

When Liu Renzhan heard this, he couldn't find a reason to refute it for a while, so he had to retreat, Sun Sheng said with a smug look on his face: "Your Majesty, it is precisely because you do not border with the Khitans and have no conflict of actual interests that you can choose not to ally with the Khitans. At this time, Sun Sheng felt that Yang Lian had already messed up his relationship with Liu Xin, and it was impossible to form an alliance with the Han State.

It was precisely because it was impossible that he wanted to bring up the matter, so that he could splash Yang Lian's sewage at will.

"Datang borders the Han State, and even more borders with Wu Yueguo, and a good alliance with these two countries is the top priority, otherwise, under the heavy pressure of the army, even if the Tang Dynasty can repel the joint attack of the two countries, it will definitely be greatly damaged. Your Majesty, Weichen believes that an alliance with the Han State is the best way. It's just a pity that Weichen heard that Yang Lian has been on the same page with the envoy of the Han Kingdom, and I am afraid that the alliance is no longer possible. Sun Sheng said, shaking his head again and again, looking regretful.

Li Jing's eyes flickered, in fact, he was a little uncertain, Liu Renzhan was reasonable, Sun Sheng was reasonable, and the alliance with the Khitans and the Han State had their own advantages and disadvantages. It would be best if we could form an alliance with both countries at the same time.

But Li Jing also knows that this is almost impossible. Thinking of this, he shook his head.

Chang Mengxi walked out quickly at this time and said, "Your Majesty." Yang Lian destroyed the relationship between the Tang Dynasty and the Han State, and his crime should be punished, Weichen suggested that this person be captured and killed immediately, and ask the envoy of the Han State for his guilt, so as to save the overall situation! ”

Li Jingsui, the king of Qi, stared. This Chang Mengxi was also too ruthless, and he actually wanted to kill Yang Lian. Li Jingsui felt a wave of hostility at this time, raised his head, and saw Li Hongji looking at him with a smile, with a hint of mockery on the corner of his mouth.

Li Jingsui, the king of Qi, suddenly understood, Li Hongji was going to break his wings, and now Feng Yansi, Feng Yanlu, Chen Jue and others were degraded, exiled, and exiled in this court. Only Song Qiqiu, Yang Lian and a few other people have a good relationship with him. Song Qiqiu is the founding minister, Li Hongji does not dare to move him temporarily, he still has enough ability to move Yang Lian. The key is that at this time, Li Hongji and his party caught Yang Lian's handle again and attacked desperately, which made King Qi feel dumb and unspeakable.

Li Jingsui felt that he had miscalculated, and he knew that this was the case. Yang Lian shouldn't be recommended, I can't imagine that stealing chickens won't make rice. I'm afraid I'm going to hurt Yang Lian this time.

Li Jing was a little hesitant, after all, he had just received Yang Lian's secret report, and he had reached an agreement with the Khitans, and he had received some benefits, and the war horses had been replenished, and his combat effectiveness would inevitably go to a higher level. asked Li Jing to kill Yang Lian at this time. Li Jing was a little unbearable.

Li Hongji saw that his father was hesitant, and immediately lowered his heart and walked out. At this time, when he wanted to beat Yang Lian, a water dog, there was no need for him to hide it.

"Father. Erchen also felt that Yang Lian had done something inappropriate, even if he did not form an alliance with the Han State, at least he could not offend the Han people, so that the Han people had a solid mouth, and contacted Wu Yueguo to attack the Tang Dynasty in the future. Li Hongji said, looking upright.

"The minister seconded the proposal!" A courtier in his forties walked out.

"Weichen seconded!"

"Wechen also seconded it!"

Suddenly, the voice of the court sounded, everyone wanted to beat Yang Lian, and most people claimed that if Yang Lian was not killed on the spot, they could not calm the people's anger. Li Jing looked at all this coldly, feeling that the court was a little out of control. Li Jing knew that Li Jingsui, the king of Qi, had a good relationship with Yang Lian, but at this time, Li Jingsui didn't stand up to speak for Yang Lian, which made him a little strange.

Led by Li Hongji, Chang Mengxi, and Sun Sheng, the crowd was passionate and wanted to get rid of Yang Lian, but in the huge court, no one spoke for Yang Lian. As for Liu Renzhan, Li Jing believes that he is not speaking for Yang Lian, but for the safety of Datang.

Li Jing didn't expect that Yang Lian's matter would cause such a big turmoil, but after all, Yang Lian was his hand-picked negotiator, and in Li Jing's heart, he couldn't bear to punish Yang Lian. But the ministers are like this, which makes Li Jing a little embarrassed.

At this time, a small yellow door hurriedly walked in, saluted Li Jing, and said, "Your Majesty, the commander of the Shenwu Army has asked Yang Lian to see him." ”

"What, he dared to ask to see him?" Chang Mengxi shouted, he didn't see Yang Lian along the way, but when he heard it, he was immediately surprised.

Li Hongji didn't think much about it, and said, "Father, Yang Lian came just in time. ”

Sun Sheng was a little scheming, and vaguely felt that it was wrong, but he couldn't say why.

Li Jing's face changed, he thought for a while, and said, "Pass Yang Lian!" ”

"Pass Yang Lian!"

"Pass Yang Lian!"

The eunuchs spoke loudly, and soon reached Yang Lian's ears. Yang Lian slowly tidied up his clothes, and then walked forward slowly. Going up the more than 100-long steps, Yang Lian walked in when he reached the door. Almost at the same time, the ministers looked at Yang Lian with a glance.

At this moment, no matter whether they knew Yang Lian or not, they all had a deep impression of this man with a scar on his face. Liu Renzhan narrowed his eyes and looked at Yang Lian, this person with the same name as the old prince of the previous dynasty, he had heard of it a long time ago, and the first time they met at this moment, Liu Renzhan was a little disappointed.

Zhou Ye also glanced at Yang Lian deeply, although Zhou Ye had resigned from the official position of the envoy of the Lujiang Festival, he was still hanging on his idle post, and his rank was not low, so he was qualified to be in the court. Seeing Yang Lian coming, Zhou Ye narrowed his eyes and looked uncertain.

Yang Lian walked in unhurriedly, walked in very calmly, saluted forward, and said in a deep voice: "The commander of the Shenwu Army has made Yang Lian see Your Majesty. ”

"Flat!" Li Jing said with mixed emotions.

Li Hongji snorted coldly, and first made a difficulty, saying, "General Yang, my father ordered you to negotiate with the Han people, I don't know how it is going?" ”

Yang Lian glanced at Li Hongji and said, "It seems that Dongping Gong is very concerned about this matter." ”

Li Hongji flicked his sleeves and said, "General Yang, my father is asking you, why do you talk about it?" ”

Yang Lian looked at him lightly and said sarcastically: "Dongping Gong cares so much about the country, how dare Yang Lian not tell him?" ”

Li Hongji snorted coldly, and suddenly felt that Yang Lian's words were a little wrong, and at this time Yang Lian had already spoken, and said: "The negotiations with the Han people have made initial progress, and Weichen thinks that Liu Xin, the king of Cai, will soon give in and take the initiative to reconcile with the Tang Dynasty." ”

The corners of Chang Mengxi's mouth were raised, he looked at Yang Lian with disdain, and sneered: "Take the initiative to reconcile? I think it's an active attack, right? ”

Sun Sheng also took a step forward and said: "Yes, now the Wu Yue people are stationed in Suzhou, there is already an offensive situation, in order to deal with the attack of the Wu Yue people, Jinling has begun to increase the number of troops in Changzhou, a big war is about to begin, countless soldiers died on the battlefield, and the amount of money and rice grain is also not small, these accounts, General Yang has ever calculated?" ”

Yang Lian looked at the two of them, his face was also full of sarcasm, and after carefully looking at the two of them, Yang Lian asked rhetorically: "According to Prime Minister Sun's words, Datang doesn't need to fight at all, right?" ”

"Sun Tzu said, 'Soldiers, the great affairs of the country, the place of death and life, and the way of survival, must not be overlooked.' Could it be that Prime Minister Sun thinks that the words of the sages are wrong? If you don't need an army, one day the Wu Yue people come to Jinling to hunt, and Prime Minister Sun thinks that with your three-inch tongue, can you persuade the Wu Yue people to withdraw from the army? ”

"Prime Minister Sun is so scheming, could it be that he is colluding with Wu Yueren?" Yang Lian said in the end, and asked unhurriedly.

As far as Sun Sheng's heart is concerned, he is loyal to Datang, if he has any shortcomings, it is that he has a luxurious personality and likes party disputes, when he heard Yang Lian splashing him with dirty water, he was so angry that his old face turned red, and he raised his hand to Yang Lian, so angry that he couldn't speak, "You, you, you!" ”

"Why, Prime Minister Sun was told by Ben General? No wonder, Prime Minister Sun negotiated with that Liu Xin, and was suppressed by Liu Xin, if it weren't for His Majesty's wisdom, I'm afraid that the interests of the Tang Dynasty would be sold clean by Prime Minister Sun! Yang Lian continued to ask.

It was a fictitious thing, although Sun Sheng was scheming, he was also angry with Yang Lian. When he turned around, he found that Li Jing's face had changed a little.

"Your Majesty is aware that the old minister is loyal and patriotic, and has not colluded with Liu Xin of the Han State." Sun Sheng said.

Li Jing didn't squeak, under the crown of the sky, the face blocked by the tassel was cloudy, and no one knew what he was thinking.

Yang Lian took two steps forward, saluted Li Jing, and said, "Your Majesty, Weichen thinks that Prime Minister Sun is suspected of betraying the country, and he must not ignore it. ”

Chang Mengxi was furious, walked out, pointed at Yang Lian, and shouted: "Yang Lian, you are a small commander from the fifth grade, you dare to ridicule the important ministers of the court, and blame others for crimes, don't you feel ashamed?" ”

"Chang Shilang is so majestic, he is so arrogant in front of His Majesty, if His Majesty is not like this, wouldn't Chang Shilang want to eat Yang Lian alive?" Yang Lian always had a smile on his face, and although his language was aggressive, his tone was relatively peaceful, and Li Jing was able to accept it.

Chang Mengxi laughed twice and said, "The Imperial Court Council, not everyone can come up. The implication is that Yang Lian is not qualified enough, but he forgot that Yang Lian was summoned by His Majesty, and when he said this, wouldn't he blame His Majesty?

Seeing the ridicule piled up at the corner of Yang Lian's mouth, Chang Mengxi suddenly realized, reacted, and hurriedly saluted Li Jing, saying: "Your Majesty, Weichen is in a hurry, and he is disrespectful, and I hope Your Majesty will forgive you." ”

Li Jing said lightly: "Excuse me." But I had a little bad feeling for Chang Mengxi, Sun Sheng and others in my heart, thinking that at this time, it was the time to find a way to solve the relationship with the Khitan and the Han Kingdom, but these people were still thinking about fighting for power and profit, and they wanted to bring down Yang Lian, which was really hateful. Yang Lian is Li Jing's handpicked peace negotiator, and if he doesn't give Yang Lian face, he doesn't give Li Jing face. It's just that Li Jing is well nurtured and hides it, but in his heart, he does have a sense of disgust for party struggle.
