Wei Yunqi walked around the courtyard and lobby, although it was still the courtyard where he lived last year, it had completely changed, and it was extremely luxuriously arranged, with all kinds of precious Taihu stones, white jade screens, red sandalwood furniture, authentic calligraphy and paintings of celebrities hanging on the wall, and even the tea set was the best official kiln porcelain, and there were four beautiful maids standing on each side. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Wei Yunqi laughed and said to Wen Yanbo: "It can be seen that the Tang Dynasty is very sincere about this peace talk!" ”

Wen Yanbo pursed his lips, "These are not dug up from the Guanlong Noble Mansion, it's just a favor." ”

Wei Yunqi waved his hand and asked the maids on both sides to go down, and then he asked solemnly: "Wen Shilang, tell me about the matter of the Guanlong nobles, how far has it been cleaned up now?" ”

Wen Yanbo sighed, "If you want to talk about Li Yuan, I really admire it, he used to be full of benevolence, righteousness and morality, open-minded and generous, but through this time to clean up the Guanlong nobles, I also really saw his true appearance, what is ruthless and poisonous, what is called killing everything, let's say so!" Chang'an now has no Guanlong nobles, all were driven to Guanzhong counties, a county lives in a family, and sent soldiers to monitor, and only the eldest grandson family is slightly better, Li Yuan saw that for the sake of the King of Qin, they left a manor in Lantian County, and the family wealth was barely kept, and the manor land of other families was confiscated, the money was exhausted, the title was deprived, and all became broken households, and the eldest son of each family was held hostage in Chang'an, and the Guanlong nobles really did not exist. ”

"But Li Yuan made a fortune, didn't he?"

"It is indeed a fortune, and the grain and copper coins collected are piled up in the warehouse, and I heard that Li Yuan's own treasury is also full, and the imperial court has a large amount of land, and it has begun to implement the military merit land system, which is exactly the same as ours."

Wei Yunqi sneered repeatedly, "He still wants to stop fighting for another year, recuperate, and wait for next year to counterattack, but I'm afraid that the final result will disappoint him greatly." ”

Wen Yanbo also said with a smile: "I have also talked with some Tang Dynasty officials, and many Tang Dynasty officials also think that there is not enough population and land to back up, and it is difficult to rise again with just a little money and grain." ”

"If our Zhou Dynasty is just declining, and the Tang Dynasty is working hard, a year later, the Tang Dynasty may have a chance to turn around, but the problem is that the Great Zhou Dynasty is also continuing to be strong, and our strength is far greater than the Tang Dynasty, if we are now a head higher than the Tang Dynasty, but next year, we will be half a body taller than the Tang Dynasty, at that time it still has any hope of turning the tables, just a dream!"

"But for a year, there is a glimmer of hope for them, better than no hope!"

Wei Yunqi picked up the tea bowl and took a sip of hot tea, and then said lightly: "If war comes, they may still be able to unite as one, but once there is no pressure from the outside, the internal fighting will rise, this is called being born in sorrow and dying in comfort, to be honest, I admire the saint's eloquence more and more." ”

．．．．．．．

Wei Yunqi soon felt what Li Jiancheng meant by absolute freedom, there were no soldiers guarding inside and outside the empty Gui Guesthouse, let alone anyone watching, and all the soldiers of the mission were responsible for security.

After dinner, Wei Yunqi took a carriage to a wine shop with a good business near the West Market, the wine shop is called Qinxiangyuan, which is the property of the Dou family, although Li Yuan confiscated the wealth of the Dou family's manor, but for the sake of the queen and his mother, he did not touch the property of the Dou family and the Dugu family, so that although the Dou family and the Dugu family lost the wealth of the rich country, they could still live a rich life like a rich man.

Wei Yunqi went straight up to the third floor and walked into a private room, Lu Ping, who had been waiting in the room for a long time, immediately stood up and bowed, "See Wei Xiangguo!" ”

"General Lu doesn't have to be polite, please take a seat!"

The two sat down on both sides of the small table, and Wei Yunqi instructed his subordinates: "Pay attention to the surrounding situation and see if anyone is watching." ”

"Humble duty understands!" His hand bowed and withdrew.

Wei Yunqi smiled at Lu Ping at this time: "I want to congratulate the general on being named General Longxiang, it's not easy!" ”

This reform of the military system, under the twelve Wei generals, there are twenty-four Long Xiang generals, and they must be generals with outstanding merits to be named Long Xiang generals, but even Long Xiang generals have rankings, Lu Ping ranks fifth, second only to Luo Cheng, Liu Lancheng, Qin Yong and Zhao Liang, not only the general of Long Xiang, but also the Zhu Guo, the champion general, Huainan County Gong, which really makes Lu Ping very excited.

In front of Xiangguo, he still showed enough modesty, "Xiangguo has won awards, and he has never been on the battlefield, but he can win such an honor, and he is very ashamed." ”

"You're actually on the battlefield too! It's just another kind of battlefield, once you miss, your life is also in danger, you don't have to be too modest, how can the saint be indiscriminately sealed? ”

"Thank you Sangkook for the compliment!"

At this time, the guards brought in the wine and food, and Lu Ping poured Wei Yunqi a glass of wine, and said with a smile: "Xiangguo is looking for me, do you need me to do something?" ”

Wei Yun nodded, "Actually, it's not that the general wants to do things, it's just that the Holy Lord instructed me before leaving, let me know about Li Yuanji's situation." ”

Lu Ping is a person from the military aircraft station and is not under the jurisdiction of Ziwei Pavilion, so Wei Yunqi is also quite polite to him, and Li Yuanji's matter is directly managed by Zhang Xuan, and even Wei Yunqi has no right to ask, so Wei Yunqi will explain that it is the Holy Lord's instructions before leaving.

Lu Ping pondered for a moment and said: "Recently, Li Yuanji has been very low-key, basically there is no movement, and I only learned yesterday that Li Yuanzheng, the Son of Heaven, was secretly sending someone to spy on Li Yuanji, but Li Yuanji already knew about it in advance, so it can be inferred that there are people from Li Yuanji around the Son of Heaven." ”

"Why is Li Yuan spying on Li Yuanji?" Wei Yunqi asked puzzled.

"Because the raid on the Guanlong aristocratic manor has finally ended temporarily, the interests are too great, so the Son of Heaven is a little suspicious of Li Yuanji, according to the information I have obtained, the Son of Heaven will send people to the manors to review, it is estimated that he wants to check whether Li Yuanji has taken the opportunity to establish a private army, if Li Yuanji survives this pass, then Li Yuanji's trust in him will be further improved."

Wei Yun nodded and drank all the wine in his cup, he remembered something, and asked again, "Then how did General Lu get this news?" ”

Lu Ping smiled slightly, "There is a eunuch beside Li Yuan, the Son of Heaven, named Zhao Dezhong, this person has been bought by Li Yuanji, but he wants to leave a way back for himself, so he is also our eyeliner, and all my news is from him." ”

Wei Yunqi nodded slowly, "It seems that Li Yuanji is even deeper than we imagined, his period of time is dormant, the short is three or five months, the long is one year, carefully cultivating his own power, this time is the easiest time to make people forget him, but when he gets up again, I'm afraid it will be difficult to suppress it anymore." ”

"So what do we do?"

"Keep an eye on him and pay attention to his every move, but don't startle him, just report to the Holy One on time."

"Humble duty understood."

Wei Yunqi drank another glass of wine, then got up and said, "For your safety, I can't stay for a long time, I must leave immediately, the general will let the entourage go back with me!" ”

Lu Ping and Wei Yunqi met, on the one hand, Wei Yunqi wanted to know about Li Yuanji's situation, and at the same time, he wanted to establish a connection with Lu Ping, and one of Lu Ping's henchmen followed Wei Yunqi back to your hotel.

Lu Ping left the wine shop through the back door and disappeared into the vast sea of people.

．．．．．．．

At dawn the next day, Pei Lin came to your hotel and took Wei Yunqi into the palace, Pei Lin smiled and said: "Your Majesty wants to meet Wei Xiangguo first, and then the two sides will start formal peace talks." ”

"Why didn't Pei Xiangguo say earlier, I should change my clothes and go to see the emperor of Guichao."

"No need, this is not a formal reception, just a chat with Wei Xiangguo, reminiscing about the past, it is a private meeting, Wei Xiangguo doesn't have to be nervous."

"In that case, then I'm abrupt."

The carriage entered the palace, Pei Lin led Wei Yunqi to the Fengqi Pavilion, Li Yuan was already waiting here, he was wearing ordinary clothes, wearing a gauze hat, wearing a light yellow dragon robe, and a jade belt around his waist, if it weren't for the Nine Dragons pattern on the robe, he would be no different from the ordinary official dress.

Li Yuan greeted him with a smile, "I haven't seen you for many years, Yunqi is still as young as before!" ”

Wei Yunqi hurriedly saluted respectfully, "See Your Majesty!" ”

Li Yuan patted him affectionately on the shoulder, "We're just old friends meeting today, don't be too formal, come!" Please be seated. ”

Wei Yunqi was not Li Yuan's courtier in the first place, and since Li Yuan had already opened his mouth to let him not be formal, he was respectful and obedient, and sat down opposite Li Yuan.

Li Yuan was very interested, poured him a glass of wine and said with a smile: "The last time we saw each other, it seemed to be the day before Yunqi left Luoyang, and it has been ten years in a blink of an eye, to be honest, when Yunqi abandoned the official and went to Beihai County, I still felt that Yunqi had done a stupid thing, but today, it seems that Yunqi was so wise and superb in his original decision, how superb his vision was, how did Yunqi know that Zhang Xuan was not a thing in the pool?" ”

Wei Yunqi bowed slightly and said, "Please forgive your majesty, Weichen can't call himself the name of his lord." ”

"We each call our own, and I believe that Zhang Xuan must also call him by his name when he talks about me."

Wei Yunqi smiled and said: "Frankly speaking, at that time, I couldn't see that our saint was a thing in the pool, and I also couldn't see that His Majesty was also a thing in the pool, many things were coincidental, I was just tired of Luoyang officialdom, even if I didn't go to Beihai County, I would abandon the official and go elsewhere, or travel the world, but it just happened that the saint invited me, I thought Beihai County had not been there, so I promised to let him go, just wanted to play for a few months, but this trip was ten years, and I didn't expect that I could mix with a Xiangguo, I had to sigh the wonder of fate." ”

Li Yuan stroked his palms and said, "What a coincidence!" It seems to be fate. ”

The two of them looked at each other and laughed.

Li Yuan smiled at this time, and said in a deep voice: "Can Wei Xiangguo tell me frankly that this time the Son of Heaven of your country has decided to cease war for a year, does he really have this sincerity?" ”
