Chapter 2 Chang'an, Chang'an

readx;

The road from Luoyang to Chang'an is not too far. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

If you walk tightly, you can reach it in three or five days. With the pacification of the war in the Central Plains, the Guanluo Avenue, which was deserted in the past, became lively.

Along the way, you can see passers-by and merchants passing by.

Yanqing and his entourage did not walk fast. In fact, he didn't need to go too fast.

The edict of Chang'an made it very clear that he should set off as soon as possible. But it is not clearly marked that it will arrive in Chang'an within a few days.

In this way, it means that Chang'an just wants Yanqing to leave Heluo, and everything else is not important.

"Yangzhen, doesn't Luoyang really need to keep people?"

A luxurious carriage inlaid with gold and silver, led by six white horses, slowly marched along Guanluo Avenue.

The car is large, like a moving house. The axle is thick, like the mouth of a bowl. Six wheels turned, crunching.

Li Yanqing wore a green shirt and sat in the carriage.

He ordered tea and drank tea by himself, and through the windows of the carriage, he enjoyed the beautiful scenery on both sides.

"Luoyang at the moment, there is no need to care.

His Majesty's intention to control the Central Plains is already very obvious, and it is absolutely impossible to change it. I estimate that in the coming year at the latest, there will be a war against Jiangnan. If Luoyang cannot be controlled before the end of the year, it will definitely cause great trouble.

This is also the purpose of His Majesty's urgent recruitment of me from Luoyang to Chang'an.

As soon as I was in Luoyang, it was difficult for Your Majesty to let go of his hands and feet...... Now, I leave Luoyang, thinking that the imperial court will react quickly.

Luoyang means little to me, and it doesn't matter whether I keep people or not.

The important thing is whether we can gain a firm foothold in Chang'an. Well done, we will have many opportunities; If you don't do it well......"

Yan Qing didn't go on, but could the eldest grandson Wuji not understand the truth?

Leaning on the wall of the compartment, Wuji took a deep breath, closed his eyes, as if he closed his eyes to recuperate, and did not speak for a long time.

After a long time, he suddenly asked, "In this way, how will the imperial court be mobilized?" ”

Yan Qing took a sip of tea and said leisurely: "Lao Du may not be able to stay in Xingyang...... But he's also prepared, so he doesn't have to worry too much. The Tongji Canal connects the Central Plains Jianghuai, and the imperial court must control it to ensure the smooth flow of materials for the battle of Jiangnan. Lao Du is my person, even if Your Majesty is relieved, the crown prince and the king of Qin will not allow it.

Therefore, I estimate that the imperial court will add a governor of Zhengzhou, but I can't guess who will be selected.

Lao Du Ma is likely to be sent to one of the five places of Yizhou, Dingzhou, Mozhou, Hengzhou and Cangzhou as the chief official. ”

Wuji was stunned, and then his eyes narrowed.

"You mean, the imperial court wants to deal with Li Yi?"

"I'm afraid it's too much to deal with!" Yan Qing said with a smile: "However, Li Yi sits on the land of Youzhou, which is the gateway to the northern Xinjiang of my Tang Dynasty.

And the soldiers under his command are strong and strong, brave and good at fighting...... It is said that Li Yi has an army of 100,000 in his hands. This figure may be exaggerated, but it also shows that Li Yi's power in northern Xinjiang is somewhat dominant. His Majesty categorically will not hand over the northern gateway to Li Yi, even if this Li Yi is given the surname Li, His Majesty may not be able to rest assured...... I heard that this person is arrogant and tight! ”

The five states mentioned by Li Yanqing are all located near Youzhou.

Among them, Hengzhou is a little farther away, but Dingzhou, Yizhou and Mozhou are located on both sides of Youzhou, which can be called living next to each other.

Li Yanqing estimated that the imperial court would definitely weaken Li Yi's power before starting a war against Jiangnan, and it was even possible to transfer Li Yi back to Chang'an, so as to completely control Youzhou. Previously, Xu Shiji had been ordered to lead his troops to Hejian, and Pei Xingyan and Xue Wanche were also ordered to open and go to the north. The weakening of Li Yi is imminent. It is very likely that Du Ruhui will be ordered to garrison Cangzhou, and when necessary, give Xu Shiji and others sufficient support and assistance.

However, he did not say this possibility, but hid it in his heart.

Yanqing hopes to take this opportunity to test his vision. Therefore, although he said the importance of Yizhou and Mozhou, he thought in his heart that Du Ruhui was most likely to be sent to Cangzhou...... The eldest grandson Wuji said with a smile: "Lao Du is decisive and has the spirit of a strong man.

His talent is outstanding, and at the same time, he is a talent in the great cause...... I think that among these five states, Lao Du is most likely to go to Cangzhou, rather than Yi and Mo. Yi, Mo Kuhan, Your Majesty arranged the meeting like this, and the traces of suppressing you are too obvious. Cangzhou is adjacent to the sea, and the products are abundant, quite rich. It's just that the attachment time is too short, and the forces in it are intricate and difficult to sort out...... Lao Du Ruo did a good job, which is a great achievement; If you don't do it well, you can naturally dismiss him, and you can't excuse Lao Du...... Therefore, Lao Du is most likely to go to Cangzhou. ”

Yan Qing held the teacup and glanced at Wuji, but there was no interface.

Mowgli's thoughts are said to be meticulous.

However, the surname is not calm enough, and after arriving in Chang'an, living in that complex environment is only afraid that it will be difficult to adapt.

When Li Yanqing thought of this, he couldn't help but feel a little worried.

In the evening of ――――――――――――――――――――――――――, the convoy stopped at a post station sixty miles from Baqiao. Here is backed by Shaohua Mountain, and then 80 miles, that is, Chang'an is in sight.

As it approaches Gyeonggi, the checks on the roads seem to be getting tighter.

Yan Qing accompanied Wujian and Duoduo to have dinner in the post office, teased Li Zhou for a while, and then returned to his room.

The eldest daughter Yuzhen and the youngest daughter Yuhuan did not accompany them.

After all, they were just born, and the two little girls are not suitable for long journeys. Especially Xiao Nian and Cuiyun stayed in Luoyang, so they naturally had to follow their mother. When Cuiyun's body recovered, he came to Chang'an together.

Speaking of the name of the youngest daughter Yuhuan, it is also interesting.

According to the genealogy of the Li family, the third generation is the jade generation. When the eldest daughter Yuzhen was named, Yan Qing didn't think too much about it. But after the birth of his youngest daughter, Li Yanqing sensed that something was not quite right. Especially when Cuiyun came up with the word 'ring', Li Yanqing finally understood what went wrong. Li Yuhuan, Yang Yuhuan...... Isn't this the same name as Yang Guifei? However, at this time, Yang Guifei had not yet been born, and Yan Qing naturally had no opinion.

Yuhuan ...... I hope that my youngest daughter will grow up and become a beauty even more beautiful than Yang Guifei!

Of course, Li Zhou needs to accompany him, and the reason is very simple.

Duoduo was ready to cut his muscles and marrow for him, and began to train for building a foundation.

Li Zhou is only one year old, and Duoduo said that the sooner children start to build a foundation, the higher their achievements will be in the future.

She didn't have children, so she poured all her hopes into Li Zhou. Li Yanqing did not refuse, he is also a person who practices martial arts, of course, he knows that the more solid this foundation is, the greater his future achievements will be.

Moreover, Li Yuan also said in the edict that he wanted Li Yanqing to take Li Zhou to Chang'an.

"Lord Wang, there is news in Luoyang!"

Yan Qing returned to the room, and as soon as he sat down, Shen Guang came.

In the past two years, Shen Guang rarely fought with Yanqing. Because he had to assist Chai Xiaohe in rectifying Qilintai, he stayed in Gongxian most of the time.

With the rectification of Qilintai basically over, Shen Guang returned to Yan Qing's side.

In the past two years, Shen Guang has changed a lot.

If Shen Guang was like a sharp sword out of the sheath earlier, with a sharp edge, then now, Shen Guang has reached the point of returning to the basics.

Standing beside Li Yanqing, he was more like an ordinary entourage.

But only those who really understand know that Shen Guang's sword is not out, and it will kill people.

Now, Shen Guang is nominally the leader of the Henan Palace, and he went to Chang'an with Li Yanqing.

Yan Qing motioned for Shen Guang to sit down, and asked seemingly casually, "How is the situation?" ”

"Sanbao has taken people and made a detour to Hedong to Chang'an.

It's estimated that it will arrive in about the same time as us...... Lu Yin went home, saying that he wanted to visit his uncle, and then came to meet. ”

Li Yanqing smiled slightly, "Then old Zhu Ke has settled down?" ”

"Zhu Cang is now settled in Gong County, everything is fine. When he came back with Sanbao this time, he also brought back a large gold, silver, and silk silk, saying that it was a treasure snatched from Ruzhou...... This is the list sent by the Three Treasures, please check it. ”

Yan Qing waved his hand, "Leave this to Wuji to deal with."

You tell Wuji and ask him to allocate 1,500 gold to you, and you can use it at your discretion. The brocade-clothed unicorn under your hand is my hole card, and it must not be exposed unless it is absolutely necessary...... By the way, Lao Chai's side, everything is going well? ”

"Everything is going well over there Chai Gong."

Shen Guang said softly: "Wen Yudong and Long Qi have already submitted the roster, and with Xu Xingbo on the side, it is foolproof. ”

The executor of this Luoyang bloody case is the white-clothed Maitreya in the hands of Wen Yudong.

Over the years, Maitreya in white has turned from light to dark, and has also cultivated a large number of believers among the people. Among them, there are not many characters in the rivers and lakes, and they can just do some things that cannot be put on the table. For example, in the Luoyang blood case, Chai Xiaohe used Xu Xingbo to dispatch a group of Jianghu characters to take action, and he did it unconsciously, which made Li Yanqing feel very satisfied.

"Chang'an, we must arrange it as soon as possible.

You inform Chai Gong and ask him to spread his ears and eyes in the shortest possible time...... I don't want to become a deaf and blind person after I come to Chang'an. ”

"Don't worry, Gong Chai has already started to arrange this matter.

However, it is easy to do in the market, but it is more difficult to do it in the homes of those wealthy families. Chai Gong said that he will try his best to make preliminary arrangements before the end of this year. ”

Li Yanqing smiled and nodded, "One year...... It's really a little hard for him.

Inform Chai Gong to ask for money and money, and ask people to give people. I will try my best to cooperate with him in Chang'an and complete the layout as soon as possible. ”

Shen Guang got up, whispered his answer, and then exited the room.

Yan Qing sat behind the bookcase, let out a long breath, and then lay on his back facing the sky, lying on the couch.

There is a string in my heart that has been vibrating silently and getting stronger and stronger.

If you don't take power, you don't know the beauty of power, and you don't know the joy of the emperor if you don't know it! From holding an army of 100,000 people, with an order, the princes of one side who landed on the ground with tens of millions of heads to the free prince who has no real power, the gap in his heart is naturally very large.

If you haven't been a prince, the prince is the most desired ending for Yanqing.

But after being a prince, how can you be comfortable in your heart when you become a cautious and powerless minister?

It's just that once this gap occurs, only Li Yanqing knows how much effort it takes.

Along the way, he thought a lot and thought about it a lot.

Gaining a foothold in Chang'an is only his first step; And then, it seems that there are many, many things to do!

I sat up and read the book for a while, feeling a little tired.

Li Yanqing was about to go back to rest, but at this time, Liang Laoshi held one arm and whispered outside the door: "Lord Wang, Chang'an has sent a messenger to ask for an important meeting." ”

Yan Qing was stunned and walked out of the room.

"Bring him to me quickly."

Liang honestly agreed, turned and left.

After a while, I saw him come to the porch with a man dressed as a thousand cows.

"Wang Mingwei, the last general of the left prison gate, knocked to see Wang Chitose of Henan."

"General Wang!"

Li Yanqing recognized at a glance that this dusty Qianniuwei was actually an acquaintance. When Dou Wei went to Gong County to deliver the decree, it was this Wang Mingwei who accompanied him to protect him.

"Get up...... General Wang came in such a hurry, but what was the matter? ”

"Lord, Your Majesty issued an edict to order the prince to enter Beijing immediately."

"In such a hurry, let me enter Beijing?"

Wang Mingwei said: "The prince doesn't know that Suzhou Xiao Sui sent an envoy to secretly arrive in Chang'an yesterday.

His Majesty said that the envoy of Xiao Sui was an old friend of the prince, so he asked the prince to come forward to receive him. Before the dawn, please be sure to arrive. ”

At this point, it's almost time!

Li Yanqing frowned and asked, "Who is Xiao Sui's envoy?" ”

"It is Xiao Sui Huangmen Shilang, and the internal history makes Fang Qiao ......"

"Fang Qiao?"

Li Yanqing's heart moved, and he said secretly: Xiao Sui sent an envoy at this time, and asked Fang Xuanling to send an envoy, what would happen?

However, time was of the essence, and he could not afford to think about it.

Yan Qing immediately ordered Kan Ling and Liu Heng to lead three million victorious troops and immediately accompany him to Chang'an.

Shen Guang, Zheng Dabiao and the eldest grandson Wuji, led the rest of the soldiers and horses, and set off after dawn.

"Little demon, is there something wrong with Chang'an?"

Wujian changed his clothes for Yanqing, Duoduo couldn't help it, and asked in a low voice.

"Fang Qiao is here...... I'm afraid that the situation in Jiangnan has changed. His Majesty summoned me into the palace overnight to discuss the matter.

Don't worry, it's nothing.

I guess I asked me to go over because I was more familiar with Fang Qiao, so I had to ask.

You rest in peace, set off after dawn, and it is estimated that tomorrow afternoon, you can arrive in Chang'an, and our family will be reunited. ”

Seeing Li Yanqing's relaxed expression, the look of worry on his face and Duoduo was more or less relieved.

"Brother, you have to be careful!"

Wujian gently tidied up his clothes for him, and whispered, "What Your Majesty asks you, what you answer, don't be reckless." ”

The innocent little girl in the past has now matured!

Although Wujian usually doesn't talk much, he also knows that Yanqing's current situation is not as good as the outside world thinks.

Li Yanqing stretched out his hand, rubbed the melon seeds of the innocent little head, and turned around and walked out of the room.

Outside the post house, Wanshengjun was ready to go.

Li Yanqing turned over and stepped onto the elephant dragon, nodded with the eldest grandson Wuji, and then urged the horse to leave.

Fang Xuanling sent an envoy to Chang'an at this time, what was his intention?

Also, what kind of attitude will Li Shimin and Li Jing have in Chang'an? What is the extent of the contradiction between him and Li Jiancheng?

All this is still unknown...... The sound of iron hooves of elephant dragons and horses shook and tore through the silence of the night.

The hot wind rushed towards him, which made Li Yanqing's heart suddenly feel a little uneasy!
