Chapter 728: Li Zhi ascends the throne

Wang Ping'an looked at the eyes of the prime ministers, grinned, and thought: "Why do you want to cultivate me, treat me as a good seedling?" Forget it, such a good opportunity, let's leave it to others! ”

He nodded, and said resolutely: "What the adults think, the lower officials understand very well, and you are full of expectations for the lower officials!" ”

The prime ministers nodded together, this kid is good, very smart, worth cultivating, use your strength on him, it's better than using it on others, we old men, there are successors!

The eldest grandson Wuji nodded and smiled, and said, "No disease, very good, you are very good!" ”

Li Zhi turned his head at this time, his mind was not on everyone's conversation at all, he was just worrying about what he should do in the future, although it is a good thing to be an emperor, but how to be, what to do if he is not good? He was worried about this matter, and suddenly heard the eldest grandson Wuji praise Wang Ping'an, so he turned his head and said: "No disease, you are very good, Lone has always thought you are very good!" ”

Wang Ping'an showed a grateful expression and said, "Thank you, Your Highness, for your love, thank you for your kindness, thank you for your attention." Thanks to you for looking up to you so much, the subordinate must not let down your love......"

The prime ministers nodded again, thinking in their hearts: "It is better for you to say it yourself to lead the troops across the sea and attack Goguryeo than for us to say it, lest you say that we forced you to go in the future!" ”

Wang Ping'an said solemnly: "Then let the lower officials recommend a person, the external move does not avoid revenge, the internal prosperity does not avoid relatives, the lower official has a good friend, named Su Dingfang, his martial arts are good, and he is familiar with the art of war, so it is best to send him to raid Baekje!" ”

The prime ministers, just like Wang Ping'an just now, also grinned. Small, play this with us, we look up to you, so we want you to lead the soldiers, not to ask you to recommend others to go, you deliberately distort their meaning...... Looks like we're going to have to talk to you about it!

The eldest grandson Wuji said: "No disease, look at our old man, who is missing?" ”

Wang Ping'an looked at a few old men, sighed, and said, "There is one missing, it's the Xiangye of Dongtai, right?" Do you want to go down and call him? ”

Just now he went out to call the eldest grandson Wuji, and the eldest grandson Wuji called a few old friends in, everyone is the prime minister, but the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty is not such a few, and the prime minister of the Middle East Terrace, that is, the prime minister of Menxia Province, did not follow in. From this, it can also be seen that the prime minister of Dongtai and the eldest grandson Wuji are not close comrades-in-arms.

When the emperor was in power, the prime minister of Menxia Province could balance the power of the court, but now that the emperor is gone, the eldest grandson Wuji has the final say, so naturally he must first purge the prime minister of the subordinate province who has a bad relationship with him, this is a very normal thing, don't say that the eldest grandson Wuji will do this, whoever is replaced, will do this!

The eldest grandson Wuji shook his head and said: "What do you want him to do, if you want to call, the old man would have called it a long time ago, why let you call it now?" ”

Ma Zhou said: "At this time, don't hint, in extraordinary times, do extraordinary things!" No disease, you are the disciple of the old man, as your master, let the old man say a few words to you! ”

Wang Ping'an glanced at Li Zhi, but saw that Li Zhi was expressionless, in a daze at the brazier. He had no choice but to turn his head to look at Ma Zhou, waiting to listen to Teacher Ma's teachings, if he didn't want to listen, he had to listen!

Ma Zhou said: "That Xiangye, he is confused, he loses everything, he often does it several times before he can do it well, and he always can't figure out what he is doing!" ”

Wang Ping'an thought to himself: "Bureaucrats, aren't they all like this? You still say that they are not much better than him, but you like to discuss together, but you deliberately isolate such a master! ”

He nodded and said, "The teacher is right, it's true!" "Anyway, that prime minister is about to be expelled from the court, and he can't say anything good for him.

Ma Zhou said again: "So, Lord Eldest Sun plans to remove him......

The eldest grandson Wuji hurriedly said: "Don't, Brother Ma, don't say that, it's His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who wants to replace him." His Royal Highness the Prince, is the old minister right? ”

Li Zhi turned his head in a daze, a little inexplicable, but he didn't say anything against it, and said, "Yes, my uncle is right!" ”

The eldest grandson Wuji said to Ma Zhou: "Look, this is what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince meant, and it has nothing to do with us!" He said to Wang Ping'an: "If there is a vacancy in the door, what does your teacher mean...... It's just that the internal move doesn't avoid relatives, and I plan to recommend you to the main door and province! ”

Ma Zhou hurriedly said: "Don't be, Wujigong, don't say that, the old man wants to promote him, but he doesn't have to be approved by everyone!" Isn't it, that's not what the old man meant alone! ”

Chu Suiliang sighed, he has always been very good to Wang Ping'an, and said a little angrily: "At this time, don't grind, don't push each other around, okay!" Let's just say it bluntly, no disease, if you take the troops to raid Baekje this time, and come back, I will let you be the prime minister of the province under the door, do you want to, give a happy word! ”

Wang Ping'an said: "This lower official, this little nephew, this ......" said in his heart, who doesn't want to be the prime minister, especially if he is not yet twenty years old, if he can become the prime minister, it is really a beautiful talk for the ages, and with a lot of power, there are more things that can be done, which can benefit the people a lot, and even make the prosperous Tang Dynasty appear one day earlier!

But then again, the sea-crossing operation is nothing in modern times, and it passed by a warship, but in the Tang Dynasty more than a thousand years ago, it was difficult, after all, the Central Empire at this time, mainly the army, and there was no navy to say, the sea-crossing operation was easy to capsize in the middle of the road, Wang Ping'an thought that the water was not good enough, in case the ship capsized, he couldn't swim back, and he swam back!

Seeing him spitting and spitting, the eldest grandson Wuji said: "If you don't want to, then it's nothing, it's better for you to go to Youzhou, take the soldiers there, go to attack Yingzhou, catch Li Ke and cut off his head, if you can't catch him and let him run, then it's not a big deal, we'll cut off your head, you don't have to worry about anything else!" ”

Wang Ping'an thought to himself: "If the soft one doesn't work, just come to the hard one!" I don't have to worry about anything else, I don't even have my head, I don't have anything to worry about! ”

He frowned, the expression on his face was bitter and sad, and said: "Little nephew, I really want to raid Baekje, but I am afraid of the heavy responsibility, in case of defeat, what can I do, wouldn't it be a big delay!" ”

Chu Suiliang said: "It doesn't matter, even if you are defeated, you will take the soldiers and come back from the ship." Anyway, as long as our army arrives in Baekje, we can scare the king of Baekje into peeing his pants, and naturally we will not dare to send troops to attack Silla again, and the difficulties of Silla will be solved, and then we will attack from the direction of Yeongju, then Goguryeo will also withdraw its troops from Silla. The small country of Goguryeo, I am the Tang Dynasty, and I will destroy this evil country! ”

The eldest grandson Wuji also patted Wang Ping'an's shoulder and said, "Yes, no disease, what are you afraid of!" If you can't beat it, it's a big deal to run, what are you afraid of losing face at a young age? ”

Fang Xuanling sighed and said: "No disease, you are not very old, it is impossible to be too fond of vanity, you must do things in a down-to-earth manner and do good things, this is the duty of a courtier!" ”

Ma Zhou, as a teacher, was the one who came up with the idea, and he was the one who made the summary, he said: "No disease, this is the trust of the imperial court in you, the cultivation of the prince to you, and the cultivation of you by our elders, you must not live up to everyone's good intentions!" ”

Wang Ping'an cried with a sad face and said: "Thank you to the Tang Dynasty, thank you to the prince, thank you uncles and uncles...... Xiaguan, it's a lot of pressure, but for the sake of everyone's expectations, Xiaguan is out of the way, and Baekje must be destroyed! ”

After saying that, he turned around, threw himself in front of the emperor's spirit, and cried loudly, shouting: "Your Majesty, why did you leave your ministers behind!" ”

The eldest grandson Wuji and the others glanced at each other and said, "Cry, let him cry, just cry......"

After the death of the emperor, before the new monarch ascended the throne, the first thing to be solved was the matter on the Goguryeo side, and since a solution has been found, the rest of the things will be much easier to do!

A few days later, on the seventh day of the emperor's death, Li Zhi held a grand court meeting and ascended the throne to the throne amid the mountain cries of the ministers. Since the emperor died after the New Year, the year has not ended, so it is not possible to set a new era name for the time being, and it will not be determined until next year, and the old era name will still be used this year.

Li Zhi ascended to the gate of heaven and announced to the world that he was supported by the people and officially became the emperor of the Tang Dynasty. After that, the world was amnesty, prisoners were pardoned, and Enko was tested to select talents!

Everything was carried out in an orderly manner under the auspices of the Ministry of Rites, and no accidents occurred.

Wang Ping'an took advantage of the efforts of the past few days to write a letter back to Gyeongju and inform his parents, but he was afraid that his parents would worry, so he did not say that he was going to send troops to Baekje, but only said that because the new monarch ascended the throne and the state affairs were busy, he had to stay in Beijing to help deal with the government affairs.

He first participated in Li Zhi's enthronement ceremony, and then he was called by the eldest grandson Wuji, and personally gave him "ideological work", telling Su Dingfang that sending him to follow Wang Ping'an to raid Baekje was a test for him by the imperial court, testing whether he was loyal to the Tang Dynasty and whether he could be worthy of the heavy responsibility......

Su Dingfang thanked the eldest grandson for his trust in Shangshu Province, but as soon as he went out and saw Wang Ping'an, he cried!

The two went to the military department and found a small courtyard where no one was, Su Dingfang took Wang Ping'an's hand and cried: "Prince, I'm not afraid of fighting, but I can go to war by boat and cross the sea, which is too embarrassing." I don't know which bastard actually chose the last general with the eldest grandson, isn't this the life of the last general! ”

Wang Ping'an sighed: "Alas, you and my brother, it is useless to say anything else. Although we were unlucky together and were sent to raid Baekje, the good thing is that even if we want to die, we will die together, which is the righteousness of our two brothers! ”

Su Dingfang wiped away his tears and said, "That's all it can be." But before going on the expedition, you have to be prepared, but the last general doesn't know where Baekje is and what is the name of their country? ”
