Chapter 711 After Li Zhi received the letter, he cried

When Wang Ping'an heard this, he couldn't understand it anymore, and thought: "This is terrible, isn't that what is going on!" In the past, the Tang army marched east to Goguryeo, and had to guard against the Turkic sneak attack behind, but now not only does it not have to defend itself, but it can also use the Turkic army. This kind of great thing, how could the ministers of the court and the central government not think that it was necessary to let the Turks take the lead, and with the Turkic soldiers to the east, such a glorious and arduous task, it is not easy to send others, so I can only be sent there! ”

He patted his thigh, regretted not being at the beginning, and sighed and said: "When I was in the Turks, I was too prominent, and I only thought about making immortal achievements, but I didn't think about Goguryeo. I was really short-sighted at the beginning, but now I want to cry without tears! ”

Di Renjie smiled and said: "Big brother, don't worry, you have laid the foundation for the unification of the grassland, and now the Turks have stopped very much, and under the swallowing and encroachment of whales, the Turks will definitely be included in the territory of my Tang Dynasty. If you can destroy Goguryeo again, then if someone compiles the "History of the Tang Dynasty" in the future, maybe they will have to write a biography for you, or even a family for you, it is possible! ”

"The family? Then I won't be a prince all the way, I didn't think about it! Wang Ping'an smiled, and then began to worry again, and said: "What we said, Lord Eldest Sun can think of it, then that Yuan Gai Suwen should also be able to think of it, right?" If he really sent the Goguryeo people to Yingzhou Tuntian, wouldn't it be as much as he sent, and how much he would have to be trapped, and the Youzhou soldiers would definitely cut off the main transportation routes, and those Goguryeo people would not be allowed to return to the country, wouldn't Goguryeo suffer a great loss! ”

Di Renjie snorted and said, "Of course Yuangai Suwen would have thought of it, but this is something that is beneficial to him, how can he not do it?" Not only will he send people to Yingzhou, but after those Goguryeo people are trapped and isolated and helpless, not only will he not send troops to support, but he will also hope that those people will die as soon as possible! ”

Wang Ping'an said strangely: "Why is this? Does he not cherish his own people? ”

Di Renjie said hesitantly: "If he were the king, he would naturally cherish it, but he is not, he is a powerful minister who killed the king, cruel and unkind, how can he care about the life and death of the people?" If he wants to send people to Yingzhou, he will definitely send his political enemies, those political enemies who are loyal to the royal family in the country, but cannot be killed, he will be sent to Yingzhou in the name of national righteousness, and he can cause trouble to my Tang Dynasty, and he can get rid of the political enemies who oppose him, killing two birds with one stone, why not do it? ”

Wang Ping'an sighed, pinched his nose vigorously, and said, "This is too complicated." However, recently, I found out that it seems that those who have a strong ** for power are a little abnormal, and they can't be inferred by common sense, so they can be said to be a little crazy, and their behavior is incomprehensible! ”

Di Renjie smiled: "Big brother, you scold your brother!" Those big people are crazy, but brother, I can understand their psychology, isn't it saying that I am also a little crazy? Actually, I don't have much desire for power, I'm just content with the ordinary. ”

Wang Ping'an thought to himself: "You are not extraordinary, you are one of the prime ministers in Chinese history, and the word famous is used on you, which is not an exaggeration at all!" ”

The affairs of Goguryeo were more complicated than those of the Turks in the early Tang Dynasty. The Tang army can use pure force to conquer the Turks, and even if they cannot be destroyed, the nomadic nature of the Turks directly determines that they cannot withstand large-scale and long-term battles. So the Turks prospered and fell just as quickly.

But Goguryeo is different, it is the same centralized power, and the country is mainly agricultural, the political pattern of the court is almost copied from the Sui and Tang dynasties, and even the national capital Pyongyang, which is called "Chang'an" in this era, and even the neighborhoods in the city are similar to Chang'an, and the people of the time are called "Little Chang'an". For such a regime, the drive is ineffective, they will not run away, because there is no way to escape. Therefore, if the Tang Dynasty wants to conquer Goguryeo, it can only launch a large-scale war of annihilation, and it turns out that this kind of war is really not easy to win, otherwise the three eastern crusades will not be possible to destroy the Sui Dynasty, and Li Shimin will not be able to return in vain.

According to Di Renjie's reasoning, in the next Eastern Crusade, Wang Ping'an will lead the troops to fight, whether it will also be in vain, then we have to see the specific situation, and the inference can only end here, and there is no way to push it down.

Wang Ping'an sighed and thought: "Okay, the soldiers will come to block, the water will cover the earth, take one step at a time!" ”

He talked to Di Renjie about Xiao Taiping, saying that Yang Chunhua refused to raise his daughter, so he had to adopt him.

Di Renjie heard that Wang Ping'an had adopted an adopted daughter, but he didn't care much, he didn't know enough about "Yang Chunhua", except for the day they met, they never met again. Until now, he didn't know that Yang Chunhua was Wu Meiniang. Of course, the point is that he didn't bother to know. Imagine, which county master would be interested in a "widow" who eats rice?

After listening to Wang Ping'an's words, Di Renjie said: "It may be that she wants to remarry, it is inconvenient to take a child." This kind of woman, what is she doing, the eldest brother is worried too much. ”

Wang Ping'an hummed and thought: "It seems that I have done a good job of secrecy, and the news of Wu Meiniang has not spread, and even Xiao Di doesn't know about Aunt Chunhua's!" ”

The two began to talk about Li Ke and Goguryeo again, and they all scolded the sinister intentions of the Goguryeo people, and felt sorry for Li Ke, Li Ke still didn't understand the sinister hearts of people, and he was too self-righteous, the prince's mentality was too serious, and he always wanted to take advantage of others, but he didn't think that others were just touching his mentality, but they took advantage of him.

In Gyeongju, everything is okay to say, no matter how troublesome Wang Ping'an is, as long as he hardens his scalp, he can always stand up for a while. But in Chang'an, Li Zhi couldn't afford to bite the bullet, and he received a letter sent to Beijing by Wang Ping'an.

After Li Zhi read it, he howled and cried, crying to death, crying like a peach in both eyes, and his voice was hoarse!

Seeing this, Shi Aiguo secretly picked up the letter, read it again, and sighed in his heart, that Wu Meiniang is really a good means, she actually wrote such a letter, isn't this forcing the prince to take her back to Beijing!

After Li Zhi cried, he was deeply tired, Shi Aiguo was angry, but he refused to comfort him, the palace was quiet, and Li Zhi fell asleep in a daze!

Shi Aiguo put away the letter, and at this time he decided not to hide anything, but to tell his brother Shi Zhongchen about the matter, and let Shi Zhongchen get the idea, he really couldn't solve it himself.

went to the Ganlu Palace, Shi Aiguo called out his brother Shi Zhongchen, went to a secluded place, and explained the cause and effect in detail. Shi Zhongchen listened, and almost fainted directly, things were inevitably too big, even the children played out, this is too unusual!

Shi Zhongchen is a person who has seen the world after all, he has experienced all kinds of turbulent waves, although the things in front of him are too appalling, but he still reacted immediately.

Shi Zhongchen said: "I used to value Wu Meiniang, but it was because of Wang Ping'an's relationship, but I didn't want to make such a big deal." That Wu Meiniang does have some means, but this matter is ultimately against ethics and morality, we were wrong once, and we can't be wrong a second time. ”

Shi Aiguo said: "That, the eldest brother means ......"

Shi Zhongchen glared at him and said, "What else can you mean, solve Wu Meiniang, or everything will be done." ”

Shi Aiguo took a breath and said, "On the prince's side, I'm afraid it's not easy to explain, what if he has something wrong because of Wu Meiniang's affairs again?" The prince is a seed of infatuation, he doesn't love the country and loves the beauty! ”

Shi Zhongchen snorted and said: "What kind of beauty is Wu Meiniang, a little girl who climbs relatives, is it possible that she still thinks that she can really re-enter the palace and become the prince's concubine?" Where will the emperor be placed, and where will I be the face of the Tang Dynasty? ”

Shi Aiguo said: "But, that ...... Who will you send? After this thing is done, it is necessary to extinguish the mouth, and the people sent to do the work cannot be kept, and they cannot let the prince know, nor can they let Wang Ping'an know. If you send the guards, I'm afraid that this news will not be able to be kept, and when the guards are killed afterwards, someone will notice it, so many people will die at once, maybe it will alarm the emperor, and if you want to destroy the guards, you have to send the guards again, and there is no leader to destroy them! ”

Shi Zhongchen snorted and said: "What's so difficult about this, go to the street to find some evil boys, give them some money, let them ambush them halfway, just say that they want to rob the family of a rich businessman, and when the robbery is carried out, arrange a team of guards to meet by chance and shoot everyone to death, the guards don't know the reason, they are not dead, who will pay attention to such a trivial matter." ”

"This, it doesn't seem right!" Shi Aiguo felt that there were loopholes in this plan, and he was afraid that the news would still leak out.

Shi Zhongchen flicked his sleeves and said, "If you want to make people live, it's difficult; But if you want to make people die, what's so difficult? Is it difficult for you to do this kind of trivial thing? Anyway, Wu Meiniang can't live in the world anyway, you can do it! ”

Shi Aiguo's scalp was numb, so he had to agree, secretly regretting in his heart, he knew that the trouble would be kicked on his head, so he shouldn't tell his eldest brother, this time it's good, he wanted to ask for ideas, but it turned out that he had to carry out the murder plan by himself, and he had to think of his own ideas on how to kill.

He returned to the East Palace, entered the dormitory, and saw that Li Zhi had woken up at this time, his eyes were red and swollen, and he was sitting on the bed in a daze, not speaking or moving, like a wood carving clay sculpture.

Shi Aiguo walked to the bedside, handed the letter to Li Zhi, thought about it, and felt that the matter had become so big, and no matter how much it was hidden, hinted, and played side knocks, it should not be solved, it must be solved at one time, no matter how reluctant it is, it must be solved, otherwise things will get bigger and bigger, until it is out of control and threatens Li Zhi's position as the crown prince!

Shi Aiguo took out the letter and said, "Your Highness, you have read this letter, and the old slave has also read it, so don't stay in this world!" So saying, he lit a fire and burned the letter to ashes.

Li Zhi looked at the pieces of paper ash blankly, and suddenly, he said: "Patriotic, I want to bring Mei Niang into Beijing, can you think of a way?" ”

Shi Aiguo thought to himself: "We knew that you must want to bring her back, and we are already planning to kill her halfway!" ”

Nodding, Shi Aiguo said: "This is simple, you can ask Wang Ping'an to send someone to send her back, and the old slave will personally pick her up halfway, but it can be safe." However, if you bring her back, how will you settle her? Although Chang'an is big, there is no place for her! ”

Li Zhi said: "Do you have any ideas?" Tell me about it! ”

Shi Aiguo shook his head and said: "The old slave has no idea, this kind of thing has never been done, and you have to make an idea yourself, Your Highness." ”

Li Zhi patted the bed and said hurriedly: "If you have an idea, why bother asking you?" If you are not sick and not here, you can't tell your uncle about this, who can relieve your loneliness, who can? As he spoke, his tears came out again, and his cowardly nature exploded, and he could no longer be strong.

Shi Aiguo said: "Otherwise, buy a house in the city, let Mei Niang live in it, and when His Royal Highness has nothing to do, go and see her, is this good?" ”

When Li Zhi heard this, he immediately became happy, this time he didn't pat the bed, he clapped his hands instead, broke into a smile, and said: "Okay, this house needs to be closer to the East Palace, so it's convenient to go to see her alone!" ”

Shi Aiguo nodded again and again, and said, "Okay, of course, the old slave will do it." You can write to Wang Ping'an...... Let the old slave write it, in case the letter falls into the hands of someone else. As he spoke, he took up his pen and wrote a letter.

Li Zhi asked: "What about the messenger, you go and call him in, you have something to ask." ”

Shi Aiguo didn't want Li Zhi to ask the messenger, in case Wu Meiniang taught the messenger to say something, make the prince cry again, and cry his eyes from small peaches to big peaches, then it would not be good, how could he see the emperor, go with two big peaches?

He said: "The old slave has already asked for His Highness, the messenger doesn't know anything about Mei Niang, he doesn't even know who Mei Niang is, and he is afraid that Wang Ping'an will leak the news, so he sent such a person." That's fine, be careful. ”

Li Zhi was a little disappointed, but he didn't say anything, just urged Shi Aiguo to write a letter and take Wu Meiniang back to Chang'an early.

Shi Aiguo wrote the letter with a wave of his pen, handed it to Li Zhi, and said, "Your Highness, take a look, is it appropriate to write like this?" ”

Li Zhi took the letter and looked at it, and saw that there was only one sentence written on it, "Three miles outside the Tonghua Gate"! He said, "This, can you understand this disease-free way?" ”

Shi Aiguo said: "Wang Ping'an must understand, and the important thing is that he can't let others understand!" ”

Li Zhi sighed and said, "Okay, let's do it quickly." It's a headache! With that, he fell back onto the bed.

Shi Aiguo immediately retired, left the East Palace, went to see the people sent by Wang Ping'an, handed the letter to the messenger, and asked him to take it back to Gyeongju. After dealing with the letter, Shi Aiguo called Meng Datian again and said: "Our Chang'an market is not very peaceful, there are always ruffians blackmailing merchants, do you know which ruffians are the most arrogant?" ”

Meng Datian was inexplicably asked, so he had to say: "If you go back to the manager, the arrogant ruffians are all locked up in prison, and the people on the street are not arrogant!" ”
