Chapter 1221: Fan Yang, Please Surrender
Although the Anqingxu people have not yet been escorted back to Chang'an, the news of the great victory of Ye County and the restoration of Anyang still reached Chang'an in the fastest time.
At this time, Yongwang Li Luan and his son had just died for less than a month, and the kings and grandsons of the court and the emperor and grandson fought openly and secretly for the establishment of the prince in the East Palace, and all the ministers in the court could not help themselves. Pei Kuan relied on his prestige for many years and the great merit of keeping Chang'an, coupled with the support of Du Youlin and other backbones of the Du family, he was able to stay out of the matter, but most officials were worried about the emptiness of the country, or they couldn't withstand the temptation of supporting the merits, so they were involved one by one. Therefore, at such a time, the great victory from the front not only means that the rebels cannot threaten Chang'an again, but also means that it is extremely crucial to win Du Shiyi's support.
As a result, the prince of Fengwang Li Heng actually took the lead in writing a book, requesting that Du Shiyi be canonized as the king of the county to praise his merits. He was so headed, Sheng Wang Li Qi was not to be outdone, and immediately asked to worship Du Shiyi as the chief lieutenant of the three dukes. In the midst of this white-hot turmoil for the establishment of the prince, in addition to the heavy conditions given by the two princes, the Donggong family unbelievably proposed to let Du Shiyi and Fan Yang Pinglu Jiedu envoy pass through Hebei Road after defeating the rebels, so as to avoid the resurgence of the rebels.
Although Li Longji was about to be blown up by this request one after another, the current situation was completely out of his control!
Now the leader of the East Palace series is not Li Li, the king of Nanyang, but Zhang Liangdi. originally planned to go back to her parents' house and try to remarry, but she became a dark horse. As Li Heng's surviving person, the hostess of the backyard of the East Palace, after the maidservant of the Cui family of the princess of Guangping beat the drum to avenge the grievances of Li Heng's father and son, Zhang Liangdi personally visited the mansions of many ministers, and finally won dozens of ministers to jointly write a letter, so that Li Longji had to pinch his nose and use the words of Li Heng, the king of Feng, to exonerate himself, and then posthumously named Li Heng as the prince of Yisu.
Even so, Zhang Liangdi is already satisfied. Because of this rush, she finally got her wish and turned her Liangdi title into Princess Yisu. Immediately after, she connected with the officials who supported the prince's family before, and arched the second son of Nanyang, Li Li.
Zhang Liangdi was canonized as the crown princess, and the power of the Nanyang Wang's family was stronger than ever, and at this time, even Dou Yi saw that this nephew's daughter wanted to be the queen mother. Although the Zhang family is the instigator of Zhang Liangdi's back, and the other brothers of the Dou family are also excited, but Dou Shilang has seen the palace fight all these years, and he is afraid to see it, but now he is even involved in his own house, when he came to Jiang Du to complain, he lamented that he should have been more direct and took Zhang Liangdi out of the palace directly, so as to avoid such a trouble now.
But Jiang Du scoffed at Dou Yi's afterthought: "If she really has no quarrel with the world, and the person who is willing to listen to you, even if she is now the crown princess, she will not wade into such troubled waters, but where will your niece and daughter be safe, even if you take her back at the beginning, and you find such a marriage for her, she sees that the dispute in the East Palace is so fierce now, and she has to rush back." There are three princes in your Dou family, and there are more than a dozen children, can you manage so much alone? Stay out of it and drink with me seriously, ignore them and it's over. I'll talk to Youlin, transfer hundreds of people to your house to guard the door, if anyone dares to break into your house without knowing what's wrong, they will all be driven out of the door! ”
"Ahem, ahem!"
Dou Yi was almost choked to death by Jiang Du, pointing at people and wanting to scold something, but thinking of Tianshui Jiang's involvement because of the previous Jiang Jiao, from Jiang Du's uncle Jiang Hui, to many sons and nephews were all demoted to Lingnan, and died of illness, Jiang Du himself has no son, and now except for Jiang Du's younger brother and Jiang Qingchu, who is still a princess, the Jiang family has no important positions in the imperial court, unlike the left son and the right son of the Dou family, even his own son is about to move, he can't help but sigh.
If it weren't for Du Shiyi, a friend in his early years, he would definitely be staying in an idle position in this life, instead of being the general of the left prison guard who is too involved now. The eunuchs who were originally the generals above were basically dead, and the only remaining Gao Lishi was sent by the Son of Heaven to control the forbidden army, so they were already the most responsible! At the same time, he also shoulders responsibilities that he has never carried before!
Both of them are the children of noble relatives, and they have been fighting each other for many years, and at this time, Dou Yi was thinking about how to make some trouble for Jiang Du, so as to save the other party from watching the fire from the other side and watching his jokes, when there was a sudden knock on the door outside.
"Two generals. There are a few people in the palace who are going to go to the East Market to buy. ”
"What to buy? The good things in the palace are piled up, and the father and son of the Yang family have taken care of them successively, and they don't know how many belongings they have added to the sage, and the East Market can be better than there? Jiang Du replied loudly in front of Dou Yi, and then he was still angry, strode to the door and opened the door, seeing that he brought a henchman who was placed in the palace gate, he said with a twinkle in his eyes, "What, what's wrong?" ”
"Although they are not conspicuous people, just a few officials, and they seem to be reasonable, but I asked a few words about the affairs of the Inner Servant Province, and then asked if there was a writing by the tall general, but they didn't know much about the affairs of the Inner Servant Province, and there was no writing from the tall general, so I came to report to the two generals."
When Chang'an was besieged, Dou Yi was fine, mainly to watch the Sixteen Princes' Mansion, but Jiang Du was killing in the three palaces at that time, and the inner servants with a face in the palace were cleaned by him, so at this moment, he turned around and waved his hand to stop Dou Ge, who was getting up to come over, and said in a deep voice: "I will deal with this matter, Dou Shi, don't touch your hands." I'll go back as soon as I go. ”
It's not that Jiang Du can't believe Dou Yi, but that the Dou family is almost about to be dragged into that whirlpool by Zhang Liangdi, and there will be less trouble at this time. However, when he left the straight room, he took off his official uniform, only changed into an inconspicuous civilian clothes, and mixed in the guards to look at the few people who claimed to be going out of the palace to Dongshi from a distance, and then he quietly retreated, and said to the henchman who had just come to report the news: "Drag them out for another quarter of an hour, and then you let them out, and you don't have to worry about other things." ”
"Yes, General!"
The so-called character official is a kind of title of eunuch in the inner chamberlain. In addition to those who have grades and formal functions, there are more low-grade eunuchs in the palace, and the officials refer to those who can wear yellow clothes, which are different from the white bodies that wear white clothes, but they are different from the officials of later generations to refer to officials with rank. A quarter of an hour later, when the seven or eight officials at the gate of the palace were allowed to leave, they did not dare to complain after being delayed for a long time, but smiled and thanked a few times before leaving. Along the way, everyone talked in twos and threes, thinking of the situation of the predecessors in their heyday, especially the Xuan He of Colliers Yang Siqiao, and everyone was envious.
"Don't mention it, it is said that someone in the DPRK and China has already asked His Majesty to change the yuan next year. Although His Majesty was furious, he could not object. ”
As a member of the palace, everyone understands why Li Longji opposes the change of yuan. Because this change of yuan is not because of any auspicious fortune such as treasure talismans, but because of the quelling of the rebellion in An Lushan. Li Longji, who claimed to be the Son of Heaven, was beaten by the rebels all the way to the city of Chang'an, and once fled to Ma Weiyi in a hurry. Such a humiliating rebellion has now been put down strongly after Du Shiyi's return, and it is said that now the rebels only occupy seven or eight prefectures and counties in Hebei, where can Li Longji's face be hung up?
The Son of Heaven was in a weak position, and when these eunuchs entered the East Market, they were not as respectful as before. Because each of them had their own different purchasing tasks, everyone dispersed after entering the East Market, and each went to buy the things listed on their own lists. As Jiang Du said before, the rebels were defeated and withdrew from Tongguan before they had time to capture Chang'an, and the left and right treasury were taken away to reward the rebels, but Taifu did not move, and there were all kinds of exquisite tributes. But the boss told them to come to the East Market to buy things, and even if they didn't understand, they could only obey their orders.
But now that Pei Kuan is in charge, the Du officials hold the power, and no one dares to ******** with just an edict as before, and the businessmen are much tougher than before.
It was only in the evening that the men reunited and returned to the palace. One of them went to the Inner Servant Province to hand over the order, and then quietly rushed to the Xingqing Palace. Although after Li Longji was sent back with such an arrow from the Sixteen Princes' Mansion, this place was cleaned by Jiang Du again, but Li Longji was still able to freely dispose of Taifu, and the heavy rewards were thrown down, and finally a few people who could be used were finally screened out, so that everything would not be controlled by others.
When this person came to Li Longji's current bed, knelt down on his knees, took out something from his arms and presented it, this Son of Heaven, who seemed to be dying and would die anytime and anywhere, suddenly had some energy, and actually snatched the paper in his hand while half-sitting.
"Sure enough, it's Fan Yang Shi Siming, please surrender, okay, okay!"
Li Longji's face flushed bright red, and his spirit was unprecedentedly excited. Every victory in front of him seemed to be a slap in the face, especially after he promised the position of the prince of Yongwang Li Lan, but Li Lan tried to wipe out his monarch father and made a fuss about this matter, and now there are very few people who support him, the son of heaven. Because everyone knows that he is dying, instead of working him, the Son of Heaven who is spurned by the people of the world, it is better to seek the merit of supporting, but he is unwilling, he is unwilling to die quietly in Shangyang Palace like his grandmother Empress Zetian back then.
Those rebels, those subordinates, don't they all want to hug Du Shiyi's thighs, hoping to inherit his position? He had to make Du Shiyi unable to do his best, and he had to show the majesty of his son of heaven! As long as Shi Siming surrenders to the Tang Dynasty under the banner of the Son of Heaven, then he can at least maintain a little last face, and he can also prevent Du Shiyi from getting Youyan's military power!
"You leave the palace tomorrow and see Fan Yang's envoy again for me, you sue them, let them beat the Dengwen drum for me to surrender, make the matter as big as possible, and move quickly! In this way, I can justifiably decree that Hebei should strike the war and withdraw the troops! ”
