Chapter 690: Dugu Ding and the Heir Thirteen

Hypocrisy is a sign that people relocate, but in politics, hypocrisy is not a derogatory term. When a person is hypocritical enough to move people, then he is a qualified politician. It was once said that every qualified politician is a great actor, and when many qualified politicians come together, then no matter what the occasion, it will be a feast for performances.

The tea instead of wine on the pine and cypress upstairs made everyone present applaud King Yan's frankness directly. But there is no doubt that after this short period of excitement, I am afraid that everyone will understand that King Yan is just showing a gesture, a humble posture.

Shang Shu's left servant shot Xiao Yu is a person who has always stood on the opposite side of King Yan, and the reason why such a person can still exist is only because King Yan needs such a person to show his leniency.

King Yan said that the decision of the state cannot be made without Xiao Yu, and no one will really believe this.

There was no wine in Songbailou's meal, but many people were a little drunk. Drunk with the charm of Yan Wang's personality, but also drunk with the charming scenery everywhere in this new era. There are many places in this landscape, such as the new atmosphere in the officialdom. Of course, this kind of atmosphere is completely based on the prestige of King Yan. Such a change would not have been possible without a strong figure to deter them.

The best part is that King Yan is not an emperor.

But better than the emperor.

No matter how virtuous and powerful an emperor is, if the court is completely shattered and then rebuilt, it will be an extremely difficult and difficult process. In this process, many restrictions will be touched, and the position of an unsuccessful emperor will be in jeopardy. There is no shortage of emperors in history who have the ability and courage to change the situation, but most of them write the ending in a sad way.

King Yan is not an emperor, he does not have the constraints of an emperor.

He has hundreds of thousands of soldiers in his hands, and he is not afraid of destruction.

If he takes the throne and then destroys and then rebuilds, the problems he has to face as an emperor will expand indefinitely. Let's talk about the court situation, if Li Xian tries to change anything after he ascends the throne, then he will no longer face the old ministers of Li Yuan's court, but the old ministers who accompany him to fight the country!

At that time, the group of people who harmed their personal interests were not Xiao Yu and his ilk. It is those generals with outstanding military achievements from Yan Yunjun, and the situation they will face at that time will be more than 10,000 times more complicated than now!

And Li Xian is not the emperor now, so he can let go. The heroes in Yan Yun's army have not yet established their own system, and Yan Wang's reform cannot touch their interests. They are still the black knives in the hands of King Yan, and whoever goes against King Yan will cut down these countless black knives mercilessly. Because King Yan is not yet the emperor, their interests are still closely linked to the interests of King Yan.

King Yan is not called the emperor, which is by no means a manifestation of hypocrisy, but an inevitable choice and a manifestation of wisdom in the current situation.

To change a country, it is as easy as talking about it and thinking about it in your heart.

Now the heroes in the Yanyun Army do not have their real rights and status, and the rights are still in the hands of Li Xian, the only commander of the Yanyun Army.

And those old ministers of the Tang Dynasty, such as Xiao Yu and Pei Lian, now they don't have any ability and authority to coerce King Yan to stop this change.

This is a wonderful situation, a situation that belongs to Li Xian himself.

And if this kind of change is done after Li Xian becomes emperor, will this situation still occur?

The benefits of having a puppet are more than just putting on a show.

After having lunch from Songbai Tower, Li Xian, the king of Yan, personally took a group of officials out of Chang'an City in the heavy rain to inspect the villages and towns outside Chang'an City. When he needs to show his benevolence and righteousness, Li Xian will never be stingy.

When he returned to the Tiance General's Mansion, it was already night, and Li Xian took a hot bath and then went back to the study. On the desk, today's recital has been neatly placed there, and at the same time, there is another person waiting for Li Xian in the imperial study, which is Xie Yingdeng, the head of the Military Inspectorate.

"The minister has seen the lord."

Seeing Li Xian enter the door, Xie Yingdeng lowered his head and said.

Li Xian nodded, slowly sat down at the desk and said, "Let's say, if you don't enter the court for a lonely day, if you don't enter the palace for a day, who are some people who are ready to move?" ”

Xie Yingdeng said: "Around noon, Li Yuan entered the imperial study. ordered the cane to kill five palace maids who were laughing and frolicking with Li Chengde in the imperial study, and stayed in the imperial study for half an hour. ”

Hearing this, Li Xian's expression did not change in the slightest: "This is his right, and no one can say anything about disciplining his grandson." ”

After Li Yuan left, Li Chengde sat on the ground, sweating profusely.

Xie Yingden continued.

"Oh?"

Li Xian was obviously interested in this sentence, and then smiled and said, "The situation that Li Yuan is facing now is a bit interesting. ”

Xie Yingdeng also smiled, and the corners of his mouth turned up and said: "This reminds the minister of what you said before, my lord, the minister didn't understand it at the time, but the minister understands it now...... I'm not afraid of a god-like opponent, I'm afraid of choosing a teammate like a pig. ”

……

……

In the first battle of Dahai Temple, the Xia army lost more than 100,000, Dou Jiande was seriously injured and almost died, and the culprit of all this was a brother who had less than 3,000 cavalry under his command. And the murderer who caused this tragic massacre was drinking in the empty Yanyun Army camp at this time, and the atmosphere was a little strange.

Xue Wanjun looked at Xue Wanche, who was covered in injuries, and couldn't help but shake his head and said, "Lang Zhong specially reminded you that if you drink too much, it will affect your recovery from your injuries...... Can't you bear it? ”

Xue Wanche poured a sip of wine into his mouth, sighed and said, "Guess...... I'm injured like this, I'm still drinking wine and eating meat, and I look like a breeze and a breeze, what will the soldiers outside say about me? What do you think of me in your heart? ”

Without waiting for Xue Wanjun to answer, Xue Wanche said seriously: "I'm afraid that they will all say that General Xue is a real man and a big husband!" ”

Xue Wanjun originally planned to give him a blank look, but after hearing Xue Wanche's later words, he could only shake his head and smile bitterly.

"But can Lao Tzu say that Lao Tzu is now in pain and wants to die? Nothing doesn't hurt, and I can't sleep even when I sleep! He didn't dare to fart hard, and he would die of pain when he opened the wound. The clouds are light and the wind is light...... Yun Qingfeng is a light fart! ”

"Don't drink...... If I don't drink, how will I spend my day? Heroes and heroes, that's so beautiful to say. This kind of suffering, if he was a mother, he was afraid that he would have collapsed long ago. ”

He sighed and said, "So, Lao Tzu can only continue to drink and continue to pretend that it doesn't matter." ”

"Who can be blamed for this?"

Xue Wanjun said: "Who told you to be so desperate that day, just rush and kill for a while, you even dared to rush into the camp of the 400,000 Xia army with those hundreds of people, and if you didn't die, you were already favored by God!" ”

"It's not like you don't know what I'm thinking!"

Xue Wanche sighed and said, "You and I are not General Xiao Luo. ”

"General Xiao Luo and King Yan are close friends, and the two of them knew each other and fought side by side before King Yan had no career. After that, although King Yan occupied Juye Ze as a thief, and General Xiao Luo was an official in Qi County, the love between the two of them has never been broken. General Xiao Luo saved King Yan, and King Yan also saved General Xiao Luo...... So as soon as General Xiao Luo voted over, he was able to seal the country! ”

He looked at Xue Wanjun and said, "But what about you and my brother?" Although my father helped King Yan once when he was in Liaodong, you and my brother have no credit, how can they be reused by King Yan? I'm doing this just so that our Xue family won't be eliminated. ”

Xue Wanjun was stunned, and then sighed.

Xue Wanche drank all the wine in the wine jug, smiled and said, "Now you know why I insist on staying with you and taking three thousand men and horses here to be suspicious soldiers...... We need credit! ”

At the same time, in the camp of the Don army.

Li Daozong, who was standing in front of Yutu and pondering, suddenly raised his head, as if he had suddenly woken up to something.

"No wonder!"

He muttered to himself, and then a relieved smile appeared on his lips.

The general who was standing beside him and was wearing a general's armor glanced at him, not knowing what kind of mystery the general had comprehended. This man of medium stature does not look burly and strong, with a pair of eyes and delicate eyebrows that even have a bookish air. But what makes people's hearts palpitate is the criss-crossing scars on his face, dense like cobwebs, and they are all scarred by new injuries, and the pink flesh is like earthworms crawling on his face, which is disgusting.

He didn't interject, just quietly waited for Li Daozong's Xiaowen.

"Nine times out of ten, the Yanyun Army camp is empty."

Li Daozong smiled and said, "If nothing else, Yuwen Shi and that cunning fox have already led their troops back to the Eastern Capital at this time. It's a pity...... I didn't expect him to be so bold at this time, I was afraid that the people and horses sent by Dou Jiande to raid Xingluocang had already been slaughtered by him, and even the eastern capital had changed hands. ”

"But the general doesn't seem to be the slightest bit unhappy."

Lang Jiang, whose face was covered in scars, asked.

"Naturally, I won't be upset......"

Li Daozong smiled, looked at the person beside him and asked, "Dugu Ding, do you know why?" ”

He walked to the side of the map and pointed to the Eastern Capital, then pointed to Chang'an City and said: "Chang'an is in the hands of King Yan, and now the Eastern Capital should also be in the hands of King Yan, even if Your Majesty is still alive, what is the use?" What's the use of him even if he still wants to reset? What King Yan once said is extremely reasonable, and I still remember it from time to time. ”

"In the face of absolute strength, all intrigues and tricks are just a joke."

Li Daozong looked at General Nalang and said, "Just as no one would have thought that I would take you in, who would have thought of ...... Am I not on the side that people think I'm on? ”

Dugu Ding nodded and said, "Indeed, no one would have thought of it, and no one would have known." ”

"That's how easy it is!"

Li Daozong pointed to an open secret letter on the table and said, "This is the news sent by Chang'an City, obviously not for me. It seems that you can hide your affairs in our army, and no one can hide them from him......"

Dugu Ding walked to the table and picked up the secret letter and looked at it, there was only one sentence on it.

"Dugu Yirou is dead."

Dugu Ding's hand tightened suddenly, and the green tendons on the back of his hand bulged!

But soon, his breathing calmed down. Spreading the crumpled letter and placing it on the table, Dugu Ding slowly walked back to Li Daozong's side.

"Now you know how important our 100,000 centaurs are, right?"

Li Daozong patted Dugu Ding's shoulder, but he didn't comfort anything.

"Stay in the army with peace of mind, and there will naturally be a chance for you to take revenge."

After saying this, Li Daozong took out another letter from his arms and handed it to Dugu Dingdao: "This is a secret letter from Shangshu's left servant Xiao Yu to find a way to get someone to send it to me, and now if Your Majesty wants to turn over, only two people can help him...... One is the King of Qin, and the other is me. ”

Dugu Ding took the letter but didn't read it, but just said four words in a flat but cold tone.

"Yes, yes."

Li Daozong looked at Dugu Ding's face, couldn't help but shook his head and said, "How can you do it?" ”

Dugu Ding raised his hand and touched his face, and replied seriously: "It's nothing if my face is ruined, as long as I'm still alive, Dugu and I can't cut off our children and grandchildren......"

"How many knives did you cut?"

"Forty-three"

"So you gave yourself a fake name called Thirteen?"

"Yes"

"Heir 13"

"In!"

"I'm going to send you to contact the King of Qin, how about counterattacking Chang'an?"

"Obedience!"

Both of them smiled, revealing a different kind of slaughter.
