readx; Li Qingan really didn't expect Li Li to come to visit him at this time, he knew that Li Li was the confidant of the Supreme Emperor Li Heng, so what information would Li Li bring when he came at this time?

Li Qingan pondered for a moment, then nodded and said, "Bring him to me!" ”

Soon, several personal soldiers brought Li Li into the big tent, and Li Li bowed down when he entered the tent: "Li Li see His Royal Highness King Zhao!" ”

"Little prince doesn't need to be so polite, call me a general, Anxi people call me that. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Li Qingan smiled slightly, waved his hand and said, "Come!" Please be seated. ”

Li Li saw that he was lukewarm to himself, and couldn't help but feel a little uneasy in his heart, he sat down, and Li Qingan asked his soldiers to serve him a cup of tea, and then smiled: "Is the little prince from Chang'an?" ”

Li Li's heart jumped, as if his secret had been discovered by Li Qing'an, there was a panic in his eyes, and he hurriedly said: "The general is right, I am from Chang'an." ”

The panic in Li Li's eyes was seen by Li Qing'an, he did not pursue it, but smiled quietly: "The arrival of the little prince tonight is indeed beyond my expectations, I don't know if the situation in Chang'an is too chaotic, and the little prince came to me to flee?" The little prince is still concerned about the recent situation of King Qing and wants to visit relatives in Anxi? ”

Li Li laughed dryly, "No, in fact, I'm just a middleman, entrusted by someone to make a deal with the general." ”

"By whom?" This Li Qingan got to the bottom of it.

"This.... The general should know who it is! ”

"Nope! I do not know. ”

After being silent for a long time, Li Li had to sigh and said softly: "It's the emperor." ”

"What!"

Li Qingan was taken aback, his surprised expression was as if his eyes were about to pop out, "What are you talking about, Emperor Taishang, I heard it right!" How can it be? ”

At this time, Li Li couldn't wait to pounce on him and strangle Li Qing'an to death, how could he not know, but he pretended to be confused here, Li Li forced a breath and said: "Don't be surprised, general, I told the truth, it was indeed the Emperor Taishang who ordered me to come to you." ”

As he spoke, Li Li took out a gold medal and handed it to Li Qing'an: "This is the gold medal that the Emperor gave to the general when he was still the prince, and later the general returned it to the emperor, it is this unicorn gold medal, the general still remembers!" ”

Li Qingan took the gold medal, rubbed it for a moment, and sighed: "So many years have passed in a flash, but the past is as if it was yesterday, which is nostalgic!" ”

He sighed for a long time, and then asked, "Doesn't the Emperor have any letter to me?" ”

Li Li has always been worried that Li Qingan will not recognize his relationship with Li Heng, but now that he finally admits it, Li Li's spirits couldn't help but perk, and he hurriedly said: "Some words can't be put on paper, the Emperor Taishang ordered me to bring a message, and if the general has anything to say, I don't need to write it on paper, I will relay it to the Emperor, so that there is no pressure on both sides." ”

"That's a lot of thought, all right! You say, I'll listen. ”

Li Li was about to speak, but he looked at a few of the pro-soldiers next to him, and when he wanted to speak, Li Qingan smiled and said, "These are all my henchmen, but it doesn't hurt to say it." ”

"That's the case, the Emperor asked me to relay it, hoping that the general can fully support him as before."

"Support him?"

Li Qingan was really a little stunned, and didn't react for a while, "You mean, the Emperor wants to ascend the throne?" ”

Even Li Qingan didn't believe in his conclusion, did Li Heng want to take his son's throne? Li Li shook his head, "This may not be, but the Emperor Taishang is very dissatisfied with the actions of the saint, he thinks that the saint's reckless actions will lead the Tang Dynasty to destruction, and he wants to set up a new emperor, it should be the brother of the saint, it is not clear yet, but the emperor hopes that the general can support him, and in return, he will agree to the conditions proposed by the general." ”

The sudden news caught Li Qingan a little off guard, he had been paying attention to the struggle between Li Yu and Li Longji, but he didn't expect that at the most critical moment, a third column would be killed, it was really three generations of ancestors and grandchildren, and none of them were idle.

Although Li Qingan was surprised, he still stabilized his emotions and quickly calmed down, he knew Li Heng, this person is very deep in the city, and he will never say big words, such as wanting to set up a new emperor, this is not something he said casually, he must have something to rely on before he dares to say this kind of thing, what basis will he have?

Thinking of this, Li Qingan frowned and said: "Although I have a little strength, after all, I am the envoy of the Anxi Festival, far away from Chang'an, I am worried that I will not be able to help the emperor's help, and I will disappoint him." ”

Li Li smiled slightly and said, "The general's army has already occupied Huizhou, is it still far from Chang'an?" ”

"Huh! The little prince is really joking, in fact, I'm just worried that my strength is weak and I can't help the emperor. ”

Li Yu understood what Li Qing'an meant, it was nothing more than a roundabout to probe Li Heng's strength, before leaving, Li Heng said to himself, there are some things to say, some things to say, he thought about it and said: "I don't hide it from the general, Wang Heng, the left minister, and Chen Xilie, the secretary of the military department, have made it clear that they will support the emperor, and some of the former Donggong party members, such as the general's father-in-law, also talked with the emperor very happily." ”

Li Qingan looked at Li Li for a long time, he believed that Li Li was telling the truth, but before they reached an agreement with themselves, it was impossible for them to tell themselves their true strength, since even Wang Heng said it, then what strength was greater than Wang Hui?

Only the army, only the army is more powerful than Zuo Xiangguo's support, it shouldn't be An Lushan, An Lushan has Li Xuan in his hands, he will never take a fancy to Li Heng, an old guy, who will it be?

He asked quietly, "What about the army?" ”

Li Li shook his head, sighed and said, "Even if the army doesn't have it, there is a general to ask for." ”

At this time, a person suddenly jumped out of Li Qingan's heart, thinking of Li Li's panic at the beginning, Li Qingan realized something, and laughed in his heart, it turned out to be him.

"General, how is it, can you consider it?"

Li Qingan smiled faintly and said: "This matter is very important, let me think about it, next time, I will give the Emperor a positive answer." ”

．．．．．．．． Li Yan said goodbye and left, but Li Qingan was a little upset, pacing back and forth in the big tent with his hands behind his back, he didn't expect Li Heng to make a move, this wolf was so hidden, and he didn't expect his ambition to be so big, of course, Li Qingan didn't believe that Li Heng would really want to shake hands with him again, and his ambition was also difficult to hide, looking for his own support was undoubtedly seeking skin with the tiger, it can be seen that he just wanted to use himself, and he threw it away after the use was over, so he put forward what long-term goals as a condition, For example, immigration and so on, it is undoubtedly unrealistic.

In fact, he wants to use himself, why can't he use him? In order to achieve his own goal, the purpose of Li Qing'an's eastward march is also very clear, in addition to recovering Hexi, he also has a deeper political purpose, everyone is staring at that position, but their means and strategies are different, he Li Qing'an's means are step by step, looking far, he believes that the final victory must belong to himself.

．．．．．．．．． Chang'an, with the three major festivals of the envoy of the army has entered the Guanzhong, the atmosphere in Chang'an has become more tense, this is ten years ago no one would have thought of the situation, all the festivals make one by one uneasy, Jiannan, Shuofang, Hexi, Longyou, and Hedong Fanyang's An Lushan called the door outside Tongguan, only Li Qing'an of Anxi did not come to join in the fun, but some well-informed people have already released their words, Li Qing'an did not stay in Anxi honestly, his army has crossed the Yellow River, arrived in Huizhou, In other words, it is only a matter of time before Li Qingan enters Guanzhong.

But this ending is expected by most people, the two imperial powers compete for the throne, and in the end they can only rely on the army, so the army is open to Guanzhong, it is also a normal time, but it is just a bitter small people, Chang'an's grain prices after a short fall, and then skyrocketed again, the fear of war made every household began to store grain, Chang'an blew a grain rush to buy wind, from Doumi Baiwen to Doumi 300 Wen, and finally until Doumi Qianwen, only to the intervention of the imperial court again to put grain at a low price of 500,000 stones, only to fall back to Doumi 800 WenIn the early years of Tianbao, the rice was only ten Wen, but it rose eighty times in just ten years, which had to prove that the Tang Dynasty was heading for decline.

Of course, this is related to the war factor, not only food, firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea, everything is soaring, students have no intention of studying, officials have no intention of going to court, wine shops and green buildings are overcrowded, many people want to enjoy life before the troubled times come, and even the major martial arts halls in Chang'an are also full of students, and every family wants to send their sons to practice martial arts, in order to protect themselves in the troubled times.

In the afternoon, the bells of the Imperial City and the Daming Palace rang dullly as every day, but there were few officials who came out, almost all of them were officials of important departments, such as the household department, the Ministry of Officials, and the officials of Dali Temple, Taifu Temple and other departments, and the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of War, Guanglu Temple, Honglu Temple, these idle departments were even more scarce, and the official offices of the East Palace were all gone.

But the imperial study of the Zichen Palace, Li Yu, the son of the Tang Dynasty, was almost overwhelmed by the tense situation, Tongguan fought a battle, An Lushan sent 20,000 troops to attack Tongguan, and Wang Sili fought against 80,000 troops, although An Lushan's army could not capture Tongguan and retreated, thousands of dead and wounded, but the defenders of Tongguan were killed and wounded nearly 15,000 people, one was defending and one attacking, and the defending army was several times the casualties of the attacker, which can only show that the defenders were weak, so Li Yu was worried, if An Lushan did not count the casualties, and then attacked Tongguan on a large scale several times, Tongguan may be lost, or An Lushan's army will cross the Yellow River and press from the west, and the situation in Guanzhong will also collapse.

In addition to An Lushan, there was also a small battle in Hanzhong, the two sides had casualties on each other, which did not affect the overall situation, in fact, what Li Yu was most worried about was the confrontation between the three armies of Feng Xiang, he never thought that Ge Shuhan would also send troops, Ge Shuhan, Gao Xianzhi, Guo Ziyi, the three armies were facing each other, and no one dared to do it easily, which made people so nervous that their heartstrings were about to break.

What to do? How to break this deadlock? Li Yu was worried, looking at his master Li Mi, but Li Yu was also a little undecided, he didn't know Ge Shuhan's attitude, the most critical one in the whole Guanzhong chess game.

At this moment, there was a sudden sound of urgent footsteps outside, and a eunuch rushed to report: "Your Majesty, urgent information, the Yanzhou government has come to report, and it is found that An Lushan's tens of thousands of troops have crossed the Yellow River." ”

"Ahh Li Yu was stunned.
