Chapter 205: Shocking Change (1)
In 756 AD, this was destined to be an eventful year, and it was also a watershed point for the Tang Dynasty.
This year is not only the fifteenth year of Tianbao, but also the first year of Zhide, even if it is the second year of Xiongwu, it is also the first year of Zaichu.
Guo Ziyi, the envoy of Shuofang Jiedu, and Li Guangbi, the envoy of Hedong Jiedu, respectively led the two armies into Hebei, the rebels' nest, and completely entered Fanyang, the hinterland of the rebels, and defeated the rebels in just one step.
However, due to the instability of Chang'an, the turmoil in Hequ Jiufu, and the rebels besieging Taiyuan, they planned to go south to the Jianghuai land, so the two had to lead tens of thousands of troops to withdraw from Jingchengkou, leaving Changshan too to guard Yan Gaoqing, Raoyang to guard Lu Yi, and Dingzhou to guard Li, and continue to defend Changshan.
After Guo Ziyi and Li Guangbi withdrew from Jingchengkou, Jingchengkou was closed to prevent the rebels from moving westward into the Hedong area.
The rebel general Cui Qianyou, and Xulian Nazhen led 150,000 soldiers and horses to force Tongguan, Geshuhan was repeatedly defeated, Tongguan was unstable, and Chang'an City was in danger.
The Uighur Khan of the north, whose sub-Yehu, disappeared in Fanyang City, and even though he wanted to send troops south to rescue the Tang Dynasty, he was also hindered;
Tibet, in the southwest, is also staring at the Central Plains;
After the Anshi Rebellion, most of the garrisons of the Tang Dynasty withdrew their troops in order to support the Central Plains, and these small countries in the Western Regions had a resurgence of the ashes.
At the same time, there was also civil strife on the rebel side, and An Qingxu, the king of Jin, together with Yan Zhuang, the squire of the military department, and the eunuch Li Zhu'er, were also in full swing to deploy a shocking coup.
Fanyang City Jin Palace.
"When I was in the palace, Li Zhu'er secretly reported to me, saying that the lord had written the edict of the prince and was ready to release it at the time of the imperial meeting the day after tomorrow!" Yan Zhuang said in a deep voice, he looked at An Qingxu, "The candidate for the prince is King Zheng!" ”
"The day after tomorrow?" Chen Wenzhou sneered, "The time for the prince to ask the lord to resign is today, and the lord will announce the edict of the prince the day after tomorrow, it can be seen that the lord's mind has long been determined, and he just wants to wait until the prince leaves, and then promulgate this news." ”
When An Qingxu heard this, his face turned pale, and he didn't hesitate in his heart, and there was a trace of ruthlessness in his eyes, "Since my father is unkind, then don't blame this king for being ruthless!" Without further ado, let's do it according to the pre-discussed process. ”
An Qingxu, Chen Wenzhou, and Yanzhuang glanced at each other, and then took out the blood book written by An Qingxu, and there were four names written on it, namely An Qingxu, Chen Wenzhou, Yanzhuang and Li Zhu'er, and then several people nodded solemnly.
An earth-shattering change has begun!
The Imperial Palace of Fanyang City.
"Your Majesty, the King of Jin left the city this morning and went north," Yan Zhuang reported to An Lushan.
When An Lushan heard this, he just said lightly: "The king of Jin understands the righteousness and retreats bravely, and finally lives up to my hard work. ”
"What Your Majesty said is very true, with all due respect, King Jin can be regarded as self-aware! He knew that his talent and mind were not as good as King Zheng, so he took the initiative to withdraw, so that it would not damage the relationship between the Lord and his father and son, nor would it destroy the brotherhood between him and King Zheng, and it would also be conducive to the stability of my Dayan Kingdom! Now that the war is becoming more and more tense, there really can't be a civil strife on the issue of Lichu, otherwise Tang Gou will be laughing in vain," Yan Zhuang said with a solemn analysis.
An Lushan glanced at Yan Zhuang with a smile, "Although King Jin and King Zheng are my sons, they are not the ones who know me best, but the people who know me the most are still Yan Aiqing. ”
Yan solemnly arched his hand, and said modestly: "Your Majesty has an overreputation, and Weichen is just based on the truth." ”
Yan Zhuang raised his head, glanced at An Lushan, and then said: "Your Majesty, in the opinion of Weichen, now that the King of Jin has left, the matter of establishing a prince should be sooner rather than later, since King Zheng is the future prince, then he should enter the East Palace!" In this way, it will not violate the etiquette, and when the Celestial Dynasty will issue the edict of the prince, King Zheng, oh no, he should be called the crown prince now, and he should also attack in advance to familiarize himself with the rules and environment of the palace, so that he can also show my royal demeanor! As for King Zheng's mansion, it should be used as the prince's hidden residence. ”
When An Lushan heard this, he thought for a moment before nodding and saying, "What Aiqing said makes sense, and it is deeply in line with my intentions!" Then I will send a decree to summon King Zheng into the East Palace and prepare to discuss the matter of the crown prince! ”
Yan solemnly arched his hand and said, "Your Majesty, Shengming." ”
After a pause, Yan Zhuang said again: "Now that King Zheng has become the crown prince, what about Shi Chaoyi's side?" ”
An Lushan glanced at Yan Zhuang with a strange smile on his face, and then said, "What's wrong?" Why did Yan Aiqing ask this question? ”
Yan Zhuang hurriedly shook his head: "Your Majesty, don't misunderstand what the minister meant. ”
An Lushan waved his hand, he knew what Yan Zhuang was thinking in his heart.
Shi Chaoyi is the confidant of King Zheng An Qingxu, there is a way for one person to attain the Tao, and the chicken and dog ascend to heaven, since King Zheng is the prince, he should also have his own group of people, so Shi Chaoyi should also be rewarded.
An Lushan said: "Shi Zhonglang, who has won the true biography of his father, the general Shi Siming, is both civil and military, brave and strategic, and is a rare talent!" If I have him to assist Qing'en in the future, I can rest assured, but for now,"
An Lushan looked at Yan Zhuang before he continued, "He is young, he is already a prison guard, I am already very good to him, young people can't be lifted too high, otherwise it will be easy to fall!" If the foundation is not stable, it will be difficult to achieve great things, so let him continue to be a prison guard for two years. ”
Yan Zhuang's face remained unchanged, although An Lushan did not promote Shi Chaoyi, which meant that it would not threaten Yan Zhuang's status for the time being, but Yan Zhuang did not show too much joy, but said lightly: "Your Majesty Shengming." ”
An Lushan nodded, "You let your Qianniuwei go to Fanyang City to post a notice, just say that the day after tomorrow I will promulgate the matter of the establishment of the prince, this is the first important thing in my Dayan Kingdom, and everyone in Fanyang must know about it." ”
"Obey the order!"
King Cheng's Mansion.
An Qingen was in a good mood today, he had already learned from his mother Concubine Duan that An Lushan was preparing to appoint him as the prince.
An Qingen thought that after the day after tomorrow, he would be the prince, which can be said to be under one person and above ten thousand! And An Lushan is not in good health, maybe he will leave at any time, and then he An Qingen will be the monarch of this Great Yan Kingdom!
Now that Datang has exhausted its energy, it is just a matter of raising hands to completely destroy it, and the day of truly dominating the world is not far away!
Looking forward to the bright future prospects, it is a bright place! An Qingen couldn't help laughing, and the laughter was full of endless pride and comfort!
He didn't realize at all that the so-called people were crazy about right and wrong, and in the near future, he might not even be able to cry.
