Chapter 164: Feng Deyi's Scheme

Youzhou, the big tent of Li Yi, the king of Yan. The halberds in the big tent were solemnly drawn, and the two rows of fierce and vicious soldiers carried the bright and swaying big knives on their shoulders, exuding a strong murderous aura. Feng Deyi slowly walked into the big tent, the cold chill on the blade and the cold and cruel eyes of the soldiers threw themselves at him, Feng Deyi was calm, took official steps, and slowly walked to Li Yi. Li Yi was wearing armor, half-leaning on a tiger-skin chair, playing with his sword with a sinking face. Hearing Feng Deyi's footsteps, Li Yi said without raising his head: "Lord Feng Deyi, are you here to be his lobbyist for Li Shimin?" If so, don't blame me Li Yi for being unsympathetic and driving you out of this camp. ”

Feng Deyi's face was calm, and he smiled slightly: "Today, the emperor sent me to Li Jing's army on an errand, and I heard that the old man was here, so I came to the general to catch up with the old days." This is a chaotic place, gathering less and leaving more, once parting, I don't know how many years it will take to see each other again. ”

Li Yi stood up and said sneeringly: "Lord Feng, you are now climbing the high branches, and you are the person of Li Shimin, the king of Qin." Pity my Royal Highness the Crown Prince, he was cut off by his Li Shimin, and his body was separated. Now he Li Shimin is the elite, looking at the fierce, looking like he is going to swallow this king alive, you ran over and made friends with this king, I and his Li Shimin's hatred is not shared, and you are his Li Shimin's henchman, what friendship do we have? ”

Feng Deyi said tepidly: "Brother, I know that you don't look down on the former King of Qin and the current emperor, but the crown prince is dead after all, and the current emperor has also taken over the throne from the hands of the emperor, after all, he is also the son of the emperor." I know that you are loyal to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, but once the war starts, the dead and wounded will be all my Tang Dynasty soldiers. For the people of the world, for the people of the world......"

Li Yi impatiently interrupted Feng Deyi's words and said: "I am a person who leads soldiers, how can I be afraid of the dead in a war?" These big words and empty words, Lord Feng should keep them and talk to those Confucian students. ”

Feng Deyi's eyes lit up, and he smiled and said, "King Yan is refreshing, then I'll tell you something real." The official title is Tai Lieutenant, in charge of the affairs of the two states of the secluded and battalion, dominating one side, and being hereditary. What does King Yan think? ”

Li Yi's eyes suddenly lit up, and he asked, "Lord Feng, did Li Shimin really put me in charge of the affairs of Youying and Yingzhou?" Financial power, military power, and personnel power are all under my control? Hereditary replacement? ”

"Of course." Feng Deyi replied affirmatively.

Feng Deyi saw that Li Yi was tempted, and continued to persuade: "When the prince Jiancheng was alive, he was the prince of the Tang Dynasty and had a noble status, but is he dead?" That's nothing, it's a hundred. The general has an army of 300,000 in his hands, controls the two states of Youying and Ying, and has an unlimited future, so why bother to die for a dead man? The living prince can give his brother status, title, official position and wealth, but what can the dead prince give his brother? He can't give you anything. Brother, your good future, can you be dragged down by him Li Jiancheng? ”

Li Yi looked at Feng Deyi with interest, he knew that Feng Deyi didn't know about his agreement with Jieli Khan. His purpose was to drag Li Shimin's army in Youzhou, so as to create an opportunity for Jieli to break through Chang'an, the capital of the Tang Dynasty. Now Li Shimin sent Feng Deyi to sue for peace, and he just happened to push the boat down the river and start negotiations with Li Shimin to delay time.

Thinking of this, Li Yi stretched out his hand to Feng Deyi and said, "Lord Feng, please take a seat." Come on, tea. ”

A soldier brought tea.

Li Yi waved his hand, and all the soldiers in the big tent retreated. Li Yi stood up, walked to the chair in front of Feng Deyi, and said with a gentle face: "My lord's words, it really made my king enlightened, and the mouth suddenly opened." It's just that Li Shimin's promises to this king can be counted? ”

Feng Deyi stood up and said righteously: "The emperor is a benevolent and virtuous king, and now that he has ascended to the throne, how can he lose his trust in the world?" ”

Li Yi said with contempt: "Lord Feng, you and I have gone through the Sui and Tang dynasties, and have experienced the three emperors of Emperor Yang of Sui, Emperor Taishang and his Li Shimin. ”

Feng Deyi picked up the teacup, blew it lightly, took a sip, and said lightly: "If my brother can't believe in Jinshang, won't he ask for the amulet on his body?" ”

"Amulet?" Li Yi asked.

Li Yi looked up at Feng Deyi, who was still calm, drinking tea, as if the tea in his teacup had extraordinary magic, which made him deeply intoxicated and wandering.

Li Yi immediately understood that Feng Deyi was hinting that he was taking hostages, and now the most suitable candidate for hostage was Li Shimin's eldest son, the king of Zhongshan County, Li Chengqian. I heard that Li Shimin attaches great importance to his son, who is only eight years old. named Chengqian, he intended to let him inherit the imperial business and lead the Qiankun.

Li Yi was overjoyed, and laughed loudly: "Please ask Lord Feng to go back to Beijing to tell the current emperor, I am very satisfied with the conditions he proposed, but I heard that the king of Zhongshan County is smart and wise, and I hope that the king of Zhongshan County can come to my Youzhou to be a supervisor." ”

Next, the two discussed the specific matters of appeasement, and after negotiating, Li Yi invited Feng Deyi to drink, Feng Deyi resigned on the grounds that he was busy with official business, and left Youzhou in a hurry and returned to Chang'an to resume his life. For the new monarch to remove the stumbling block of Li Chengqian, the king of Zhongshan County, Feng Deyi's heart is like drinking honey, sweet, how can he still be in the mood to drink with him Li Yi?

After Feng Deyi left, Li Yi gathered his generals and said: "I have agreed to negotiate peace with Li Shimin, and Li Shimin promised me that I would be the official and the chief lieutenant, and I would be in charge of the affairs of the two states of Youyou and Ying, and I would dominate the north and be hereditary." I asked Li Shimin's eldest son, Li Chengqian, the king of Zhongshan County, to be the supervisor of our army. ”

Zuo General Yang He's face was happy, he has always disapproved of Li Yi to raise troops against the Tang Dynasty, Li Shimin is a terrible opponent, since the fourth year of Wude, Li Shimin defeated Zheng Wang Shichong, Xia King Dou Jiande, the people of the world understand that the world is Li Tang's, the people's hearts belong to the Tang, and whoever rebels will not succeed, of course, Li Yi is no exception. Being able to negotiate peace with Li Shimin is the best result.

The right general Yang Qi (ji) was expressionless, and asked puzzledly: "Dashuai, aren't we going to avenge the prince?" Do you want to die for him Li Shimin? ”

Li Yi carefully observed Yang He and Yang Qi's every move, and said with a smile: "Die for him Li Shimin?" Do you think I will really be willing to negotiate peace with him Li Shimin? Does a captain want to send me Li Yi? What I want is the chair in the imperial capital of Chang'an, the only chair, which is mine. ”

Yang He was stunned for a moment, and Yang Qi was shocked at the same time, and echoed incorrectly: "Handsome, with great ambitions, the last general really admires it." ”
