Chapter 127: Emperor Qianning

At the same time, Li Keyong exerted pressure on Li Maozhen, and it didn't take long for Li Maozhen to resist the pressure on August 23, and released Li Yu, the eldest son of Tang Zhaozong, and at the same time sent someone to escort Li Yu to Chang'an City. In the name of Li Yu, the king of Germany, Li Keyong summoned hundreds of civil and military officials the next day to carry out a simple and solemn enthronement ceremony on the Temple of Heaven. Li Yu ascended the throne as king, and still used the era name Qianning when Tang Zhaozong was in power, which means to remember and respect the first emperor. Call it Emperor Qianning.

The emperor's accession to the throne naturally inevitably rewarded him lavishly, and Li Keyong was at Li Cunhuan's request, Li Cunhuan was not only included in the clan, but also seemed to be fair, and he didn't know where he found the identity of a royal family, but he was the descendant of the eldest son of Tang Taizong. In addition, Li Cunhuan's official position has also been improved, and he was canonized as the Duke of Yan Guo, the General of the Auxiliary State, and the Sikong.

At this time, although Li Cunhuan had won enough honor, Li Cunhuan was also ready to retreat, and the army was ready. But at this time, someone came to persuade Li Cunhuan to retreat with death.

"My lord! Has the lord forgotten Judge Chen? Chen Changhuo knelt on the ground with tears streaming down his face, now Chen Changhuo no longer had the calmness he used to have, holding a dagger in his hand to his heart, and Li Cunhuan refused to admonish him with death.

How could Li Cunhuan forget the hatred of his first military advisor Chen Changfeng! But according to his many inquiries, over the years, Li Maozhen of Fengxiang Mansion has been trying his best to strengthen it. After Li Maozhen's ten years of construction, the current Fengxiang Mansion not only has a high city wall, but also has three city walls, namely the outer city, the inner city, and the Jiedu Embassy. The highest part of the wall is as high as 8 zhang (about 27 meters), and the average thickness of the wall is more than 4 zhang (about 14 meters).

That's not all, in addition, there is at least a year's worth of grain in the city, especially now that it is late August, Li Maozhen only needs to resist Li Cunhuan in the periphery for a month, and he can calmly harvest the grain. At that time, Mo said that it would be a year to resist Li Cunhuan, even if he resisted for three years, it would be possible to resist for four years.

More importantly, Li Cunhuan could see that Li Keyong was going to let Zhu Wen, a tiger, come in and drink Li Maozhen, and they were dead, without Li Keyong's help, it would be difficult for Li Cunhuan to credify Fengxiang Mansion. He Kang and Li Cunhuan are now on an expedition, and after a long stay, it is difficult to guarantee that Lu Long will have any changes, and it will be beyond his reach to remedy it when the time comes. There is also a problem with supplies, not to mention the difficulty of replenishing food and weapons, and it is even more difficult to replenish the loss of soldiers, this is not Lulong itself, or a place close to Lulong. All this had to make Li Cunhuan choose to retreat.

But Chen Changhuo's words made Li Cunhuan very embarrassed, and finally Li Cunhuan let out a long sigh and said: "You yourself are the commander of the Jinyi Guard, then I ask you, I will give you 20,000, no!" 100,000 horses, how much time do you need to capture Li Maozhen now? And I also ask you, what are you going to do with Fengxiang's land after capturing Li Maozhen? Give it to Li Ke, or keep it for yourself? I also ask you, how much blood are you going to use to capture Fengxiang, which was taken away not long ago? ”

Chen Changhuo nodded deeply, his finger joints pale. He knew that what Li Cunhuan said was reasonable, not to mention whether he could capture Fengxiang, what if he captured Fengxiang? Lu Long simply can't afford to take care of this enclave. Is it really the blood of thousands of Youzhou sons and daughters who came in exchange for their hatred?

Li Cunhuan knew that Chen Changhuo had understood this truth, but to put it incorrectly, Chen Changhuo was unwilling to think about it. Li Cunhuan walked up, squatted down slightly, patted Chen Changhuo's shoulder, and asked in a serious tone, "Do you believe me?" ”

Chen Changhuo, who was blinded by hatred and doubtful, didn't know how to respond, pursed his lips and didn't speak.

Li Cunhuan said indifferently: "I will become the master of this world!" I will make all those who are my enemies pay a terrible price that they cannot bear! Changhuo, do you believe me? ”

Chen Changhuo nodded vigorously and said, "Lord! I believe, but ...... But ......"

Li Cunhuan's palm pressed against Chen Changhuo's shoulder, which was slightly trembling because of excitement, and said: "I know, I know that you are afraid that you will be like Wu Zixu, you have the ability to take revenge, and the enemy is dead." Feel relieved! Li Maozhen is only twenty-nine years old this year, and there is time! I swear he will pay for it in ten years! Otherwise, you won't die well! ”

"Lord!" Chen Changhuo raised his head excitedly and looked at Li Cunhuan. What Li Cunhuan said just now was no longer what he should say to his subordinates as a lord, but being able to say such a guarantee also calmed Chen Changhuo's restless heart.

"Let's go down and do something else!" Li Cunhuan breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and said to Chen Changhuo with a smile.

Chen Changhuo withdrew, and Li Cunhuan breathed a sigh of relief, he now knew that the lord was not so easy to be.

"Lord, Father Shang's banquet is a big banquet, and the lord is specially invited to go!" Sha Yu Ke said with a hint of mockery on the corner of his mouth.

Sha Eucalyptus's ridicule was naturally not directed at Li Cunhuan, he was used by Li Ke, and after Li Ke supported Emperor Xuanwu to ascend the throne, he was given the name 'Shang Father', who owned Shang Father? The first person to have the title of Shangfu was Jiang Ziya and Jiang Taigong, who assisted two generations of Zhou kings to win the world.

In this way, the nobility of the title of Shangfu has been determined, for example, Dong Zhuo is also called Shangfu, Guo Ziyi of the Tang Dynasty is also given the title of Shangfu, and Wang Xingyu also obtained the title of Shangfu through coercion. However, Li Ke's father is not the same as Wang Xingyu and Guo Ziyi, because Emperor Li Yu of Qianning called Li Keyong not Aiqing, but Shang's father. It is equivalent to honoring Li Ke as half a father and guardian.

However, this is obviously not recognized and respected by the people, and Sha Ke is extremely disdainful, thinking that Li Keyong is Dong Zhuo's second, and sooner or later he will either be killed or take the throne of the prince of the Tang Dynasty.

Li Cunhuan didn't care too much, smiled noncommittally, and said: "Don't show this expression in front of Li Keyong, you go and prepare my court clothes, and I'll go take a bath now." ”

"Yes!" Sha Yuke didn't dare to object to Li Cunhuan's order, so he hurriedly responded, and was just about to walk out, when he suddenly stopped.

"What's wrong?" Li Cunhuan looked at Sha Cunke, who turned around with some confusion and wanted to stop talking.

Sha Yu Ke said a little unnaturally: "Li Ke also sent someone to ask for the deputy envoy of Zhou (Dulwich) Jiedu. ”

Li Cunhuan smiled and said, "Don't have any opinions, I believe in Zhenyuan (Zhou Dewei), you send someone to Zhenyuan to say something, let him not mind, he will go with me in a while!" He has wronged himself because of me. In the final analysis, Li Keyong is still the old owner of Zhenyuan! ”

Sha Eucalyptus pursed his lips a little dissatisfied, but he still didn't dare to say anything against it, and withdrew in response.
