In Chang'an Taiji Palace, Di Renjie, the commander of the Qilin Secret Guard, reported to Li Jiancheng:

"Your Majesty! According to the eyeliner report of the Kirin Secret Guard, Goguryeo, Baekje, the Three Kingdoms of Silla, and the Evil Tatar tribe have all set out, and at their current speed, they should arrive in Youju in half a month. After listening to Di Renjie's words, Li Jiancheng nodded.

"Hmmm! Very good! Renjie, also, I am about to leave Beijing, and I am fortunate to be in Youzhou, and the movements in Chang'an and Luoyang in Guanzhong, you Qilin Secret Guards must pay attention! ”

"Yes! Your Majesty! Wechen understands! "After Li Jiancheng sent envoys to Goguryeo, Baekje, Silla, and the Ya tribe, and after consulting with Xu Jingzong, Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng, Di Renjie, Du Ruhui and others, he decided to go to Youzhou immediately, and turn Youzhou into a forward headquarters for the future crusade against Goguryeo, and take advantage of the situation to clean up Baekje and Silla, but this time, not only did Li Jiancheng leave Chang'an, but also took away Li Chengdao, the king of Hengshan, and Li Chenglu, the king of Hengyang, and in order to ensure that his power was not hollowed out, Li Jiancheng decided to decentralize the power of the three provinces and six ministries of the imperial court and increase the prime minister team of the imperial court. However, according to the imperial court etiquette system, the court prime minister's team is composed of the three provinces of Zhongshu, Menxia and Shangshu to manage government affairs (see Zhongshu Province, Menxia Province, Shangshu Province). The governors of the three provinces (Zhongshu Ling, Shizhong, Shangshu Ling plus Shangshu left and right servants) and are prime ministers. The government hall where the prime minister deliberates is located in the province of Monoxia. But the difficulty lies in the fact that the system of three provinces and six ministries has been implemented for hundreds of years, and it is easy to cause new panic by rashly adopting new measures, and after discussing with Xu Jingzong, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Wei Zheng, and Di Renjie, Li Jiancheng decided to refer to the story of Emperor Wen of Sui who used the Sui system to use the military department Shangshu Liu Shu to take charge of the affairs of the machine, and Emperor Pei Yun and Pei Ju of the Sui Dynasty to the Huangmen Shilang to know the political affairs, and opened the story of the forerunner of his official and prime minister. As for the name, Li Jiancheng decided to use the name of the Sanpin Pingzhang under the Zhongshu Sect. "Same three products" is because Zhongshu Ling, Shizhong is Zhongshu, and the subordinate is the third official, and this title is added to show that he enjoys the same rights and treatment as Zhongshu Ling and Shizhong. Pingzhang is a fair and clear appearance. There are words in "Shangshu Yaodian" that "the people of Pingzhang". Ping means the meaning of discernment, the three words Ping, convenience, and distinguishing are false to each other, and righteousness is to discriminate, Zhangtong \ Because, Li Chengdao, King of Hengshan, and Li Chenglu, King of Hengyang, are the two eldest princes of Li Jiancheng, and a powerful force has been formed among the relatives of court officials, and even the Guanlong clan is also acting in secret. Take away the two princes Li Chengdao and Li Chenglu, this is to form a new power center in Chang'an, and take Feng Deyi and Xiao Yu away, this is because Feng Deyi and Xiao Yu are both relatives of the former Sui Dynasty, and they are also inextricably linked with the Guanlong clan itself. Leaving them in Chang'an, it is difficult to guarantee that something will happen, and bring Feng Deyi and Xiao Yu to Li Jiancheng's side, so that these old ministers and the Guanlong clan feel that they are still in the center of power. And Wang Gui was taken away mainly for Xu Jingzong, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, and Di Zhixun. Wang Gui's temper is a little stubborn, he is a donkey, after Feng Deyi and Xiao Yu were taken away by Li Jiancheng, Li Jiancheng took over the authority of Feng Deyi and Xiao Yu to let Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui take over. And Xiao Yu and Feng Deyi are gone, Li Jiancheng is not in Chang'an, and there is no one among the courtiers in Chang'an who can compete with Wang Gui. Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui's qualifications are not enough, Wang Gui's existence will definitely hinder Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui, Xu Jingzong himself belongs to the Jiangnan clan, and leaving Xu Jingzong in Chang'an can appropriately weaken the influence of the Guan Longshi clan, but Xu Jingzong's private morality is at a loss, and he likes luxury, not only built a pavilion with seventy houses in the mansion, but let ** ride a horse on it, thinking that it was fun. Xu Jingzong's eldest son Xu Ang was very literate, and Xu Jingzong's wife Pei died very early. Pei's maidservant girl has a good look, Jingzong dotes on her, and makes her a steproom, with a fake surname Yu. Xu Angping had an affair with her, and he had been committing adultery in the following prostitution. Jingzong was angry and deposed the Yu clan, charged Xu Ang with unfilial piety, and asked the court to exile Xu Ang outside the mountains. Wang Gui is also a moral gentleman, and he has always looked down on Xu Jingzong, because of this scandal, Xu Jingzong was also impeached. When the time comes, Xu Jingzong and Wang Gui will do things together, that is, the two tigers will stay in the mountains, and the official affairs will not be negotiated at that time, and the official affairs of the imperial court will be delayed. And after Wang Gui left, Wang Gui's authority, Di Zhixun took over Wang Gui's authority. This is also Li Jiancheng's selfishness, so that Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Di Zhixun and others will officially take over power in the future, and completely sweep out all the old ministers of the former dynasty. At that time, after Feng Deyi, Xiao Yu, Wang Gui and others left Chang'an, coupled with Li Jing's use of guns to stabilize the situation in Chang'an, I believe that Li Tang will be as solid as a rock in the world by then. When Li Jing received Li Jiancheng's holy decree, he immediately hurried back to Chang'an from the area of Mayi, and Li Jiancheng set up a banquet for Li Jing:

"Come on! Pharmacists! You have worked hard in the Mobei area, I salute you! ”

"Ahh Thank you, Your Majesty! Li Jing and Li Jiancheng colluded.

"Ouch!" Suddenly, Li Jing put his hand on his shoulder. Screaming in pain:

"Ouch!"

"Hmmm! Yakushi, what's wrong with your shoulder!? How is it so painful! ”

"Oh! Your Majesty, there is nothing wrong with Weichen? ”

"Someone! To the Imperial Doctor! When the imperial physician came to diagnose Li Jing, he reported to Li Jiancheng:

"Your Majesty! General Yakushi's injury is not too serious, but this is an old injury, and it is not easy to cure it radically! ”

"Oh! Is there no way to do it? The imperial doctor looked at Li Jiancheng and then at Li Jing, and his face was a little embarrassed:

"Your Majesty, there is a way, it is ......"

"What's it? Tell me quickly! ”

"Your Majesty, this medicine is the dragon's beard! Because His Majesty is the Son of Heaven and the true dragon in the sky, he gathers the aura of heaven and earth, the essence of the sun and the moon, if the dragon whisker of His Majesty is burned into ashes and put on the wound of the medicine general, the wound of the medicine general can be healed. It is...... It's just ......" The imperial doctor didn't dare to say any more - in ancient times, with Zhou etiquette as the code of conduct, pay attention to the body's hair and skin, and the parents, especially the hair and beard, could not be damaged and destroyed at will. When Li Jiancheng heard this, he immediately didn't say a word, and directly cut off his beard, burned it to ashes, and asked the imperial doctor to put the ashes into the medicine.

"Hurry up and apply medicine to General Pharmacist! Be sure to heal General Yakushi's wounds! General Li Jing knelt in front of Li Jiancheng:

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty treats the ministers as heavy as Mount Tai, and the ministers must be smeared with liver and brains, and eliminate difficulties and dangers for Your Majesty! ”

"General! This time, I transferred you back from Mobei to use the power of the general to stabilize the chaotic situation of Li Tang for me, and I am about to go to Beijing, hoping to use the power of the general to stabilize the current situation. When Li Jiancheng told Li Jing about his plan, Li Jing assured Li Jiancheng that he would stabilize the situation in Chang'an for Li Jiancheng. Let Li Jiancheng go to Youzhou with peace of mind and recover the homeland of Liaodong. After Li Jiancheng settled the affairs of Chang'an, he took Li Chengdao, the king of Hengshan, Li Chenglu, the king of Hengyang, Xiao Yu, Feng Deyi, Wang Gui, the provincial servant of the door, Wei Zheng, Ma Zhou, Liu Bo, Cen Wenwen, Pei Xingjian, Xue Rengui, Su Dingfang, Di Renjie, Liu Renliang and other civil and military generals came to Youzhou. And the envoys of Goguryeo, Baekje, Silla, and the Turquoise tribe also arrived in Youju ahead of schedule.

"See His Majesty Emperor Li Tang!"

"Ahh Ladies and gentlemen, excuse me! All the way to the road, the wind and dust, hard work, let's go to the post house to rest first! I will hold a banquet for you. ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" When the banquet ended, Li Zhiyuan, the king of filial piety who was enshrined by Li Jiancheng, secretly asked to see:

"Hmmm! Brother Zhiyuan, you are not in Silla, why did you run back to the Central Plains. Is there something urgent? ”

"Your Majesty! There is indeed a big thing to tell! Moreover, if this matter is not properly resolved quickly, I am afraid that His Majesty's plan will come to naught. ”

"Oh! Brother Zhiyuan! What's the big deal? ”

"Your Majesty! King Jinpyeong of Silla, King Kim Baek-jeong, is seriously ill, Princess Deman, no, Lee Bae-he, the lord of Lelang County, is about to become the queen of Silla, but ......"

"But what?"

"Your Majesty, the Silla royal family is afraid that the lord of Lelang will have no heirs, so let the lord of Lelang get married immediately!" Through Li Zhiyuan's description, Li Jiancheng knew what was going on - Jin Baijing was slowly failing because of his advanced age, and Jin Deman began to contact the government and was ready to ascend the throne at any time, but the Silla royal family was afraid that after Jin Deman ascended the throne, the world of Silla would fall into the hands of foreign surnames, and wanted Jin Deman to get married immediately and give birth to an heir, and the groom was chosen, that is, the brother of Jin Deman's father, King Jin Baijing, King Gewen.

"What? In Silla, can an uncle marry a niece? Li Zhiyuan heard the displeasure in Li Jiancheng's heart - of course, Li Jiancheng wanted to get Jindeman into his hands, and by the way, when the time came, the land of Silla would be divided into his own hands, and now, this fast-ripening duck is about to fly, and whoever he is replaced will be angry!
