The officials and others saw Li Chongjiu's face pondering.

At that moment, Wen Yanbo said in the foreword: "At present, Dou Jiande has been called the emperor, Yu Wenhua has been called the emperor, Li Yuan has been called the emperor, and all the surrounding powerhouses are interested in seizing the world. If our Youzhou Army does not raise its banner again, I am afraid that others will think that our Youzhou has no ambition to seize the world. ”

Wen Yanbo said, and everyone nodded yes.

Wei Zhengyan on the side said: "Since our army went south to seize Youzhou, Luo Yi and Gao Kaidao have been cut off, and the only ones who can compete with us in Hebei are Li Tang, Dou Jiande, and Yu Wenhua, and now all three have been called emperors." Even Liu Wuzhou and others called themselves the Son of Heaven to the Central Plains and the Khan to the grasslands. If Shanggu Gong is no longer the emperor, I am afraid that he will disappoint the people of Youzhou. ”

There was indeed urgency in the hearts of the officials, and when Li Chongjiu occupied Shanggu County, the slogan he played was to divide one side and wait for the time. At that time, Li Chongjiu was only a county, and there was nothing inappropriate about this slogan.

After capturing Youzhou, Li Chongjiu already has several counties, but his strength is still far from several princes, there is a big gap, and it is unrealistic to call the king the emperor. Later, in order to appease the Youzhou scholars in the territory, Li Chongjiu took Li Mi as the main and fully supported the Wagang army to seize the world.

In front of him, it is different, compared to the time when the new Youzhou was found, Li Chongjiu now won Hengshan, Taiyuan several counties, broke the Khitan in the north, and the Xi tribe was defeated, Goguryeo was defeated in the east, and Li Tang was fought in the west. At present, who in the world is not impressed. Now Li Chongjiu is no longer at the beginning of his fledgling, but has the certainty to compete for Hebei and even the world.

Now that the Wagang Army has failed and Li Mi has surrendered to Tang, where should Youzhou go.

If Li Chongjiu is not the emperor at this time. The officials below will think that Li Chongjiu just wants to defend one side, and there are even ignorant people. will think that Li Chongjiu will descend to Tang with Li Mi.

For example, Dou Jiande was originally the same as Li Chongjiu, and he was also based on Li Mi. But Li Mi surrendered to the Tang Dynasty, and Dou Jiande immediately proclaimed himself emperor, which was to show his ambition to seize the world.

It is good to be called king slowly, but when the power is insufficient, you must not suddenly raise this banner, otherwise the name will not be true. Occupying a small county and a few thousand people dare to call themselves emperors, that is not self-defeating.

But this time, more than 20 scholars in the county test papers, together with a letter asking Li Chongjiu to be the emperor, is it a coincidence?

"Report to the Upper Valley Prince. The fact that these more than 20 scholars have written has already been discovered! "The county Sima Lin stepped forward to report,

"Who's in charge?"

"Qiqi Shanggu Gong, there are three scholars who are leading this time, none of them are from the scholar family, but there are people in the family who are officials in Youzhou, but the official position is low, and the highest is only the county household Cao Shuban. They are now under our control. ”

Li Chongjiu said: "Oh? ”

Lin Dangfeng said: "I think this matter is purely a temporary anger of the students. ”

Li Chongjiu's eyes swept to Wen Yanbo and the others, and said, "Isn't there a Youzhou official?" Give them a hint? ”。

Wen Yanbo and the others lowered their heads and kept silent, not to mention Zhou Xu, he was ready to be dismissed.

Lin Dangfeng said: "If Shanggu Gong wants to investigate thoroughly, it can be handed over to the county government yamen. Under the execution, everything is clear. ”

"Not necessarily. Stand down. Li Chongjiu waved his hand, he knew that someone must have instructed him to do this. But no matter who they are, their intentions are not bad. Not to mention the torture of scholars. If it gets out, the reputation is terrible.

For Li Chongjiu, it is not that he is unwilling to be the emperor. But this matter needs to be done naturally, rather than shouting over there yourself, it is better for others to welcome you to the throne.

This is China's national condition, otherwise Zhao Kuangyin is obviously rebelling by himself, why would he want someone else's yellow robe. As for the so-called three resignations and three concessions before taking the position, is everyone hypocritical?

After everyone retreated, Lu Chengqing came back again.

Li Chongjiu saw that Lu Chengqing was back again, and knew that he wanted to report the confidential matter, so he immediately asked the left and right guards to step back and asked, "What is the important matter of Lu Juncheng?" ”

Lu Chengqing said: "Qiyu Shanggu Gong, I have a word that transgresses the rules, and I want to talk to Shanggu Gong. ”

"But it doesn't hurt to say it."

Lu Chengqing said at the moment: "I feel that there is another thing that is as urgent as being the emperor. ”

"What?"

"I implore the Duke of Shanggu to marry Princess Changle as his wife."

Hearing this, Li Chongjiu's eyes lit up, and he said, "What did you say?" ”

Lu Chengqing said: "Please forgive me for being bold, the room has always hoped that Mrs. Shanggu Public Office is the main room, not to mention the birth of the Shanggu Gonglinzi, and the expectation of the room is even more urgent." But once Mrs. Murod is the main room, the position of the prince ......"

Lu Chengqing said this, but saw Li Chongjiu's eyes were calm.

Lu Chengqing lowered his head and said: "For the Hebei and Shandong scholars, what I hope is that the future Son of Heaven can uphold the orthodoxy of the Han people. ”

Li Chongjiu said: "If Shandong Gaomen really plans to do so, he can't serve the Wei Tuoba clan first and then Gao Qi back then. ”

Lu Chengqing said: "This is a helpless move, at the beginning Xianbei Tuoba unified the north of the river, the scholars crossed to the south, and if the scholars who stayed in the north of the river did not obey, they could only perish." Therefore, the expedient measure can only be based on the Tuoba clan. As for Gao Qi, although Gao Huan's father and son are vulgar and humble, they are also Han people, and even so, it is expedient to attach to them. ”

Seeing that Li Chongjiu did not refute, Lu Chengqing continued: "The Jiangzuo Shi clan is still a figure, the Guan Zhong Shi clan is still crowned, the Daibei Shi clan is still a noble relative, and the Shandong Shi clan is still married. If Shanggu Gong wants to compete with Li Tang's Guanlong Shi clan and seize the world, he must get the help of the Shandong Shi clan in order to fight in the court. ”

Li Chongjiu nodded silently, this is a good word.

Lu Chengqing said: "Princess Changle is a noble of the heavenly family, if the Shanggu Gong marries with her, the Shandong scholars will not dare to underestimate it, and it will also make the old court officials of Hebei return to their hearts." In the future, if the princess comes out, becomes the prince, and inherits the world, it is my Chinese orthodoxy, and the Shandong scholars will definitely belong to it, and the world will return to the heart. ”

Lu Chengqing's words were very sincere, and as the son of the head of the Lu family in Fanyang, it can be seen that he was also well-intentioned when he said this.

Li Chongjiu saw Lu Chengqing bowing down and sweating profusely, and knew that he was under a lot of pressure before he said this.

Li Chongjiu said: "You can say this, it really surprises me, I know that your uncle has always disliked me entering Youzhou." But if you can say that, it shows that I am not wrong. ”

Lu Chengqing arched his hand and said: "Uncle, I do have a view of the high and low of the heavy gate, but for Youzhou, there is no malice towards Shanggu Gong, especially recently, my uncle has seen that Youzhou is thriving under the abbot Li Yuanjun, and it has changed a lot." ”

Li Chongjiu said with a smile: "I am really pleased that Gong Lu can think like this. ”

When Lu Chengqing heard this, he further said: "It's not just that, if Shanggu Gong can marry Princess Changle, I will persuade my uncle to marry the daughter of my Lu family to the King of Qi." ”

As soon as Lu Chengqing said this, Li Chongjiu was calm on the outside, but he was also making big waves in his heart. Or be someone else, I'm afraid I'm going to jump up at this time.

Li Chongjiu's first reaction was this naked political marriage.

According to Lu Chengqing's mentions, if the daughter of the Lu family marries Yang Jun, the king of Qi, and Li Chongjiu marries Yang Ehuang, the princess of Changle, then Li Chongjiu, the Sui clan, and the Fan Yang Lu family are tied to a chariot.

Li Chongjiu represents the emerging forces that are rapidly rising, the Yang family represents the old dynasty forces, and the Fanyang Lu family represents the Hebei Shi clan.

This is a very high move, for the Lu family, marrying a daughter to the King of Qi is better than directly marrying a daughter to himself, not only does not lose his identity, but also can officially integrate into Li Chongjiu, a new force across the grassland and Youzhou.

No wonder Lu Chengqing was sure to convince his uncle.

Lu Chengqing said: "Of course, my Lu family is not without conditions, I know that the concubine of the king of Qi has passed away for a long time, but there are still side concubines in Jiangdu, and the daughter of my Lu family will marry the king of Qi and will be the princess of Qi." ”

Li Chongjiu knew that Yang Jun's original concubine was the daughter of Wei Chong, the secretary of the Ministry of Civil Affairs.

Wei Chong was born in the Jingzhao Wei clan of Guanzhong Wang, and he is the first-class gate valve in the Guanlong clan.

For example, among Li Shimin's concubines, there is a Concubine Wei (Li Shimin was called Wei Guifei after ascending the throne), and her position is second only to the eldest grandson queen. And Concubine Wei's great-grandfather is Wei Xiaokuan, the first general of the Northern Zhou Dynasty.

Back then, Yang Guang also took great pains to pull up such a big tree as Jingzhao Wei's family for his son's marriage, but Concubine Wei died of illness early, which was equivalent to making Yang Yun lose an arm, and he was still angry, so he went to Concubine Wei's sister to fornicate.

Yang Yin fell, but the Wei family was more prosperous, and in the Tang Dynasty, Li Wuwei and Yang had four surnames and said that the four surnames married each other and really grasped the power. There are Tang Dynasty generations, such as the four surnames of Shandong Gaomen, although there are dozens of prime ministers, but because they refuse to marry the Li Tang royal family, they are all marginal figures.

As in Li Shimin's Xiu clan chronicles, Li Tang's first rank is the royal family, followed by his relatives, and the third rank is ranked as Cui Lu Wang Zheng. In history, when the imperial power of Li Tang was sluggish, the remaining three surnames intervened as relatives and controlled the center.

And Li Chongjiu thought that the future Youzhou would be the world of Li Yang and Lu's three surnames, and the Lu family's chess move was really wonderful.

Thinking of this, Li Chongjiu said in his heart, if it really comes to this point, family affairs, that is, state affairs, are still involved. Although when he was with Yang Ehuang, he knew that the matter between the two of them was not as simple as the good feeling between men and women, and then it was so simple to be together, but when this moment came, Li Chongjiu still felt unhappy in his heart.

At present, Li Chongjiu is just a prince, if he is called king in the future, his wife will be the queen, and after he is called the emperor, his wife will be the queen. And the woman who never forgot to marry at the beginning is now far away in Chang'an, and her heart is separated from the world.

"Uetani."

Listening to Lu Chengqing's call, Li Chongjiu came back to his senses.

Seeing his surprised look, Li Chongjiu knew that he had just lost his temper, and reluctantly suppressed the melancholy in his heart, smiled and said: "I will consider your words, don't worry, I will do my best to reply." ”

Lu Chengqing said: "Yes, then retire from your humble position." (To be continued......)
