Hiding the doubts and confusion in their hearts, Guo Ye and Li Jing still went down to the city tower with their father-in-law and hurried to the palace to face the saint.

After entering the palace, Gonggong Shun did not take them to the Wangbei Pavilion where His Majesty Li Er usually dealt with government affairs and review them, but directly brought them into the Manna Palace.

After entering the Ganlu Palace, Guo Ye did not find the figure of the eldest grandson queen, only His Majesty Li Er sat there in a daze with a book in his hand, his face was as heavy as water, and he could not see the joy and sorrow.

Empress Changsun is not here, Guo Ye also understands very well, her biological son once again broke into trouble and was imprisoned, and her brother participated in the rebellion and was dismissed from his position and demoted to the common people, never to be used, and expelled from Chang'an. If Empress Changsun could still sit calmly and calmly beside His Majesty Li Er at this time, then Guo Ye really felt that this woman was calm to a perfect state.

The queen is also a woman, and the eldest grandson of the virtuous queen is no exception, at least Guo Ye thinks that her heart is not strong enough to be so terrifying.

"Guo Qing and Li Qing are here?"

His Majesty Li Er woke up from the meditation, waved at Dong Shun, motioned for him to go out, and then raised the tightly clenched recital in his hand, and said with a solemn expression: "Yu Shinan sent someone from the south to send eight hundred miles to expedite the recital, you all take a look!" ”

As he spoke, Li Jing hurriedly stepped forward to take the fold from His Majesty Li Er's hand, and spread it out to look at it.

At a glance, Li Jing's face couldn't help but stagnate, his hands trembled for a long time, but he didn't calm down, his hands trembled, and his entire shoulders were shaking.

Guo Ye, who was standing not far behind Li Jing, was very curious about what happened to make Li Jing, a hero who had been fighting in the south and north for decades, lose his weight so much.

That's too hard to learn, isn't it? Even if the sky falls, it may not be that Li Jing will have such a gaffe, right?

Immediately, he hurriedly stepped forward to Li Jing's side, and his eyes fell on the fold in Li Jing's hand that had not yet been closed.

At a glance, Guo Ye's color suddenly changed, and he blurted out: "This group of bastards who killed a thousand knives, they should have led their troops to suppress them in the first place, otherwise where would there be such a disaster today?" ”

Something went wrong,

Something really is wrong!

Yu Shinan said in his recital that a month ago, a heretical cult in Lingnan was engaged in gossip to confuse the people, which eventually led to a riot among the cult followers and believers. In just one night, under the riot of the cult people, more than 1,000 soldiers of the Lingnan Mansion died at the hands of the crazy people, and the huge Lingnan Mansion was declared to have been lost and completely occupied by the cult.

The so-called cult is composed of three sects, namely Manichaeism, Taiping Taoism, and the White Lotus Society, and is collectively referred to as the White Lotus Sect. The White Lotus Sect did not respect the royal law, the imperial court and the government, and not only incited the people and believers to rebel and riot, but also attracted the believers and the strong men among the followers to form a Dharma Protector Army.

After the White Lotus Sect occupied Lingnan Prefecture, it also instigated riots against several state capitals around Lingnan Province at the same time, and occupied these state capitals in the same way.

The Protector Army has also expanded from the initial tens of thousands to a full 200,000.

This is not all, Yu Shinan added the latest situation in the compromise, these White Lotus Sect's protector army took the area around Lingnan as their base camp, and then went all the way south to rebel, attacking the city when they saw it, smashing and looting things, and if they saw someone, they would attract him to join the White Lotus Sect, and if the other party did not comply, they would be killed.

In the hundreds of thousands of White Lotus Sect's army of Dharma protectors drove all the way south, Fujian, Guangnan East Road, Guangnan West Road and other places fell into the rebellion of the White Lotus Sect one after another, and many cities were looted by the White Lotus Sect overnight, and as for the people in the city, all those who did not join the White Lotus Sect were slaughtered and became a complete ghost town.

……

……

"Brute! These cults and bandits who are disturbing the hearts of the people are beasts, and they should be punished by the nine clans, Your Majesty! ”

At this time, Li Jing's tears had already wet his clothes, his eyes were cloudy with crying, and he choked up and yelled at His Majesty Li Er.

Guo Ye also gritted his teeth and presented the fold in Li Jing's hand back to His Majesty Li Er, and then said hatefully: "Your Majesty, we can't sit back and watch them breed and spread again, we must put down the rebellion of the White Lotus Sect as soon as possible and exterminate these cult leaders." Otherwise, the country will not be a country, and it will even endanger the foundation of the Tang Dynasty. ”

However, His Majesty Li Er was not as excited as Guo Ye and Li Jing showed, on the contrary, he was very calm, gently pressed the piece of music under his hand, and said lightly: "Why does a mere cult have such great strength? Have you thought about it? ”

After Li Jing calmed down for a while, he was surprised and said, "Could it be that there are still people behind the scenes of this White Lotus Cult?" ”

"Yes!"

His Majesty Li Er nodded and said: "The people behind them are none other than several big families of the Guanlong clan in the south, hehe, this time, I will definitely not allow them!" ”

Li Jing flicked his sleeves fiercely and scolded: "It's them? Damn, damn it! What exactly do they want to do? ”

"It's easy!"

His Majesty Li Er said: "They don't just want the Lingnan and Quang Nam areas to fall into chaos, they want the entire south to be in chaos. In this way, they will have the capital to sit down and negotiate with me. Do you really think that the emperor dared to use Li Xiaogong and Hou Junji to launch a coup d'état when I went down to the south of the Yangtze River? They want to echo the north and the south, so that I have no way to live! ”

Guo Ye suddenly remembered that once His Majesty Li Er summoned him into the palace late at night, as if he had talked about his next big game of chess, a game that was enough to change the pattern of the world, could it be that His Majesty Li Er had long expected that the Guanlong family in the south would secretly support the White Lotus Sect rebellion?

Yes and no!

Suddenly, an idea flashed in Guo Ye's mind, could it be that His Majesty Li Er had inserted people in the White Lotus Cult early, and then sat back and let them collude with the Guanlong family in the south, and finally wanted to take advantage of this division to become famous, and completely remove the Guanlong family, a special class that has spanned more than 300 years, in one fell swoop?

If this was the case, Guo Ye was completely scared of His Majesty Li Er.

Didn't Yu Shinan say it in the compromise?

Every time the White Lotus Cult's protector army captured a city, they smashed and looted property, killed those who did not join the cult, and even slaughtered the city.

How many people have to die like this?

Fifty thousand? Lakh?

Or even hundreds of thousands?

I grass!

If this is the case, His Majesty Li Er will regard all the people in the world as dogs, and he will be an out-and-out conspirator and executioner.

No!

Guo Ye would rather believe that this is a fake!

"Guo Qing, Li Qing!"

His Majesty Li Er woke up Guo Ye with a call, and said in a deep voice: "How about I appoint Li Qing as the chief of the march on Lingnan Road, and Li Qing as the chief of the march on Guangnan Road, and let the two of you raise troops to the south to quell the rebellion?" I want to send troops to exterminate the White Lotus Cult, uproot the Guanlong clan in the south, let the troubled land of turmoil recover its vitality as soon as possible, and let the people in the south live a peaceful life as soon as possible. ”

Before Guo Ye could express his position, Li Jing took the lead in expressing his position: "Your Majesty, the old minister is fine, but the old minister hopes to requisition the two of Lu Guogong Cheng Biting Jin and Yiguo Gong Qin Shubao." ”

Guo Ye was slightly stunned, and His Majesty Li Er was also surprised, and asked puzzledly: "Li Qing, why is this?" I also want to put Biting Jin and Shubao under Guo Qing's account. ”

"No, Your Majesty," Li Jing shook his head and said, "Lu Guogong and Yi Guogong are both veterans of the battlefield, and they are a little more senior and experienced than Guo Jungong in terms of military qualifications and experience?" If the two of them are put under the public account of Guo County, I am afraid it will be difficult to convince the public? ”

Speaking of this, Li Jing glanced at Guo Ye with deep meaning, and then continued to say to His Majesty Li Er: "Since Guo Jungong is going to take the post of the chief of the march on Guangnan Road, then there must be a few pioneers and generals under his command who can command like an arm, right?" An old qualified general is not suitable for Guo Jungong to call! ”

As soon as Li Jing's words came out, His Majesty Li Er understood, and Guo Ye also understood.

His Majesty Li Er smiled dumbly, shook his head and sighed: "It was my negligence that I was confused, I didn't think of this joint, and I also ignored the feelings of the two of them. ”

Guo Ye glanced at Li Jing gratefully, His Majesty Li Er only understood the meaning of Li Jing on the first floor, and Guo Ye understood the second layer, Li Jing transferred Cheng Yanjin, Qin Shubao and others to his own command, in addition to worrying that Guo Ye was too young to convince the public, there was another purpose.

That is to make room for Guo Ye's subordinates, and let him hurry up Zhang Luo's original group of henchmen and generals to come back and appoint them.

Pang Feihu...... Combo...... Ruan Laosan...... and the fat man Zhu who is in charge of money and food.

Immediately, Guo Ye arched his hand and praised: "Your Majesty, what Wei Gong said is extremely true, Weichen has shallow qualifications, if Lu Guogong, Yi Guogong and others are transferred to my account, it will inevitably wronged these seniors." Therefore, the minister has a reluctant request, and I hope that Your Majesty will approve it! ”

His Majesty Li Er waved his hand and said: "Let's say, as long as it is about the matter of raising troops to the south to quell the rebellion this time, I will approve them one by one!" ”

"Thank you, Lord Ronne! The minister wants to dispatch a few more handy former troops from all over the country to ensure the victory of the southward counterinsurgency! ”

"Well, it's just a trivial matter, Guo Qing made a list and handed it to Li Qing, and asked him to quickly issue an official document in the name of the Ministry of War, and dispatch these people to return to Chang'an as soon as possible."

"Whoa!"

"The old minister obeys!"
