Chapter 46: Yang Lian's Suggestion

Han Xizai raised his head in some surprise and looked at Yang Lian carefully, Yang Lian was willing to let him live, is the reason only as simple as Yang Lian said? Or is there some conspiracy? The man's face was cloudy, and soon he thought that he was already a prisoner, what other conspiracy could he not achieve? But Yang Lian's words were very clear, but he just took a fancy to his talent. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info Yang Lian, is there such generosity?

Yang Lian saw Han Xizai's worry, he laughed, and said: "You don't have to worry, since this king has let you go, Your Majesty will lobby you, and as for the future, as long as you are loyal to this king, this king will naturally not treat you badly." ”

Han Xizai noticed that Yang Lian said two points, the first is that he calls himself the king, that is to say, he has changed from Wu Hou to the prince, which makes him feel shocked, you must know that a different surname cannot be crowned a king, but Yang Lian is still sealed and has become a dignified king with a different surname, it seems that the situation in Jinling is by no means so simple. It is very likely that the Marquis of Wu, no, the King of Wu has already controlled the situation in the entire Jinling, His Majesty has become a puppet, and the situation of the Liezu Wu has been formed.

Perhaps, is this fate? He had experienced that scene back then, and now, this scene is about to be repeated, Li Tang has replaced Yang Wu, is King Wu going to replace Li Tang again? The reincarnation of fate, maybe that's it.

In addition, the second point, Han Xizai noticed that Yang Lian was saying that he was loyal to him, not loyal to the Son of Heaven and the Tang Dynasty, which is enough to prove a lot of problems. At least, he has years to cultivate his own power.

Looking at these two points together, Han Xizai can almost conclude that the scene back then is not far away. But even if you know, what can you do? He is already a prisoner, can he turn the tide? No, he couldn't do it, Xu Wen was in power back then, it wasn't that no one resisted, and some of the jiedu made the army rebel, but it still failed, and the generals who held the military power were like this, what could he do if he was just a literati?

Yang Lian was able to tell him so clearly that he was warning him that if he chose to be loyal to Yang Lian, then don't have any other thoughts, and do things honestly, it will naturally have his benefits, and it will naturally be okay to add officials to the knighthood. But if you are not loyal to him, the answer is very simple, the fate of King Yan is his fate.

Han Xizai's face was cloudy, he was silent for a while, straightened up, his eyes were complicated, half loud, he nodded, bent over, and said, "Uncle Yan is willing to serve King Wu." "Uncle Yan is Han Xizai's word.

Yang Lian didn't have any expression and asked, "Don't regret it?" ”

"No regrets!" Han Xizai nodded, in front of dignity and life, he chose his life, and when he died, there was nothing.

Yang Lian laughed, took two steps, helped Han Xizai up, and said, "Uncle Yan, since this king chooses to trust you, you can do it boldly and with confidence." Now inside the Tang Dynasty, there are actually many crises, you may not know that Guo Rong has absconded from Jinling City and is currently being pursued. If he returns to Kaifeng, Datang will add another strong rival. ”

Han Xizai didn't know that Guo Rong was involved in this matter, so he was stunned when he heard this, and he pondered for a moment, and said, "King Wu, Guo Rong is also involved in this matter?" ”

"Yes, it was Guo Rong's participation that made Li Hongji firm in his heart of rebellion, this king thought, Xiao Siqing knows this very well." Yang Lian said, turned his head, and looked at Xiao Yan in the other room.

Xiao Yan has been looking at him dead since Yang Lian came in, and now when he heard Yang Lian say this to Han Xizai, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he desperately wanted to squeeze to Han Xizai's side, and said, "King Wu, King Wu, help me, help me!" ”

Yang Lian glanced at him coldly, turned his head, looked at Han Xizai again, and said, "Among these people, only you can survive, this is the king's appreciation for you, I hope you will do it yourself." ”

Han Xizai pursed his lips, he knew that Yang Lian was not only saving him, but also his family, so he immediately knelt on the ground, kowtowed to Yang Lian a few times, and said, "Uncle Yan, thank you King Wu for saving your life!" ”

On the side, Xiao Yan heard that Yang Lian had pardoned Han Xizai, and shouted even more anxiously, saying, "King Wu, save me, I will definitely be loyal to King Wu." ”

"Uncle Yan, you can go out." Yang Lian ordered.

Han Xizai stood up, arched his hand, and walked out under the escort of several soldiers.

Yang Lian turned around and walked towards Xiao Yan, Xiao Yan was even more excited this time, he waved his hands and screamed desperately, his voice was hoarse, like a crow.

Yang Lian stood still, his eyes full of banter, and said, "What, do you want to live?" ”

"Think, think, Wu Hou, please save me!" Xiao Yan was very excited, and when she saw Yang Lian, she seemed to see a chance to live.

Yang Lian laughed, raised his hand, shook it, and said, "You, no, just rely on you using the list to mislead this king, and this king will not spare you." Xiao Yan, you nominally do not participate in party struggles, but in fact you secretly work for Li Hongji, but you hide too deeply and are not known to others. However, if you want to deceive the king, it would be naïve. ”

Xiao Yan's eyes widened, she looked at Yang Lian in disbelief, and said in a lost voice: "You, you know everything?" ”

"Do you think that trick can fool the king?" Yang Lian laughed.

Xiao Yan was speechless, but his mind was spinning rapidly, so King Wu had already known, so he would use Li Hongji to achieve his goal, this is a plan within a plan, Xiao Yan gasped, originally thought that the plan was perfect, but in fact it was expected by the enemy.

The winner of this coup d'état, Yang Lian, who no one could have imagined, got the greatest benefit from this incident and became the king with a different surname.

Xiao Yan figured out this verse, laughed, and said, "You admit this, aren't you afraid that I will tell the Son of Heaven?" ”

"Who will believe your words?" Yang Lian gave him a contemptuous look, turned around and walked out of the prison.

Back in Yang's Mansion, Yang Lian felt very tired, Fu Jinzhan , Zhang Qili , Mi Shiwei and others were relieved to see that he was fine, although Zeng Yiling brought back the news, but before seeing people, a heart was still hanging.

Zhang Qili brought a warm meal most intimately, Yang Lian also felt hungry, and ate slowly, a bowl of rice went down, and the warm piece in his body also regained some strength.

Fu Jinzhan watched Yang Lian eat and didn't speak, but Zhang Qili was on the side, like a sparrow, chattering. It is nothing more than how dangerous this coup d'état is, the rebels invaded the Yang Mansion and almost captured Fu Jinzhan , Zhang Qili and others.

Zeng Yiling and Mi Shiwei didn't speak on the side, but looked at where Zhang Qili was talking non-stop.

Zhang Qili finished speaking, and Yang Lian also ate almost enough. Fu Jinzhan smiled at this time: "Young Master Yang, the matter is not so serious, it is just a false alarm." ”

Compared with these things, Zeng Yiling was more pragmatic, she asked on the side: "Now that the people of the Tang royal family are almost dead, only Li Jingsui and Li Jingda are left, Li Jingsui has ascended the throne and called the emperor, and Li Jingda's attachment to Li Hongji is also a major crime of rebellion, and it is also a capital crime." What did Li Jingsui say about today's court meeting? ”

Zhang Qili saw Yang Lian finish eating at this time, and came over with tea.

Yang Lian slowly tasted the tea, then he spoke, and told the matter again, and several people were very happy when they heard that Yang Lian had been promoted to King Wu. Today is just a meeting of the court to agree, in a few days, the official side will be officially ordered, this prince's position, must not be able to escape. While a few people were talking, Fu Jinzhan saw that Yang Lian's eyes were bloodshot, so he asked everyone to leave and let Yang Lian rest first.

This night, Yang Lian slept very sweetly, and after getting up, all the fatigue on his body was eliminated, and he was much more energetic. Thinking that there were still many things to deal with, Yang Lian had eaten breakfast and rushed towards the imperial city.

In the imperial city, the ministers are already busy, there are too many things lately, and they always have to work overtime to finish it, and the ministers are busy dealing with things. In Jinling City, due to the troubles of rangers and rebel soldiers, the losses are not small, Dali Temple and the military department are actively counting the losses, preliminary estimates, the death toll is about 20,000 or more, at least 2,000 houses have been burned down, the loss of property is currently incalculable, this is the most serious loss in Jinling City for decades.

Yang Lian found Li Ping from the household department and asked him to count the number of people to see how many people were affected by the disaster, these people need to be resettled, and they need to be resettled, and the household department should sort out a charter and actively resettle the people.

The burned houses needed to be rebuilt, and it cost a lot of money, but fortunately, Li Hongji didn't want the imperial city to suffer too much damage, so he didn't order it to be set on fire, so the imperial city remained roughly as it was.

In addition to these things, Yang Lian also cared about Guo Rong's affairs, but there was no news from Zhou Ye's side, so he didn't catch Guo Rong. Yang Lian entered the palace and discussed with Li Jingsui for a long time, and the focus of the discussion was how to deal with the anti-thief.

Yang Lian told him about Han Xizai and gave the reason, although these people used to be Yan Wang's party, they did not directly participate in the coup, and many of them were held hostage. There are several advantages to not blaming Han Xizai in the past, one is that he is not a direct participant in the coup, spare him, and stabilize the hearts of officials in Jinling as soon as possible. Second, this coup d'état has a far-reaching impact, in addition to the first evil, the fact that the Son of Heaven can not blame people like Han Xizai in the past is enough to prove that he is very broad-minded. Some of the thieves who escaped will not take risks, they will choose to surrender, and they can stabilize the situation very quickly. Third, this is also for officials everywhere to see, so that they can rest assured, even if they have a relationship with King Yan, there is no need to be anxious, the new emperor is benevolent and will not kill innocents indiscriminately.

Li Jingsui listened to Yang Lian's analysis, nodded, and agreed to Yang Lian's request. The two chatted for a while, and before they knew it, it was already noon, and the palace maid brought wine and food, and the two continued to talk about things while eating.

"Your Majesty, the Li clan has gone through this chaos, the population is thin, Your Majesty is still young, and you need more concubines to open up branches and leaves for the Li family, and the country will have an heir." Yang Lian said. Especially the queen, we must choose the best, the country cannot be without a king, nor can there be no queen.

Li Jingsui pursed his lips, after the princess died, he had not officially canonized the princess, so he only had one daughter. Now that Yang Lian has mentioned it, Li Jingsui's emotions are a little complicated. This is a good suggestion, which proves that Yang Lian is thinking about the Li family. Could it be that your suspicions are wrong? Li Jingsui thought in his heart.

He once thought that this was Yang Lian's arrangement, after all, Li Hongji, the king of Yan, was his political enemy, so taking advantage of Li Hongji's mutiny, killing him was the best way. At this moment, when Li Jingsui heard Yang Lian say this, his heart suddenly became confused, and he was a little confused.

Yang Lian smiled and said, "Your Majesty, even if this suggestion is not mentioned by the ministers, I think other courtiers will mention it." Your Majesty still agreed. ”

Li Jingsui nodded, Yang Lian was reasonable, and he chose to agree.

"Your Majesty ascends the throne and needs to win the hearts of the people, so you might as well lower the taxes in various places and release the prisoners in various places, except for those who have committed capital crimes, of course." Yang Lian said again.

Li Jingsui also chose to agree, the new emperor ascended the throne, these measures will be in place, and it is also a way to buy people's hearts.

At this time, Yang Lian had almost eaten, he put down his chopsticks, and his expression was a little solemn. Li Jingsui felt very strange when he saw him like this, Yang Lian had never had such an expression.

"King Wu is suddenly like this, why?" Li Jingsui asked.

The burned houses needed to be rebuilt, and it cost a lot of money, but fortunately, Li Hongji didn't want the imperial city to suffer too much damage, so he didn't order it to be set on fire, so the imperial city remained roughly as it was.

In addition to these things, Yang Lian also cared about Guo Rong's affairs, but there was no news from Zhou Ye's side, so he didn't catch Guo Rong. Yang Lian entered the palace and discussed with Li Jingsui for a long time, and the focus of the discussion was how to deal with the anti-thief.
