That's the end of the Lingnan affair - actually, I really don't know what they can do.

Lingnan is too far away, and there are endless mountains and rivers in between.

Guangzhou is the northernmost part of Lingnan, and it is said that there are thousands of kilometers to the south of Guangzhou, leading to the fable, non-existent province of the extreme south.

Although Lingnan is the most powerful in the world, they do not seem to have the ambition to dominate the world. In fact, the world has always been unified by northerners, most of them are Liaodong, Xiliang, and Liaoxi, and a small part are Gyeonggi and Hebei - and, haha, this time the Tang Dynasty can also be regarded as the unification of Liaodong.

Lingnan and Huangdi are like two worlds. I don't know how many thousands of years have passed, and the languages of both sides have slowly become different, and it seems that the human races are also different. In any more youth, they may become real aliens—and there may be a real big war then.

In short, now, for the time being, this is the end of the matter in Lingnan.

But no.

The good deeds don't want it to end like this. Although the officials present did not care about these things, some people still reported this open rebellion to the emperor.

The surface is calm. You feel calm on the surface, and that's because you can't see the turbulent currents beneath the calm surface.

This is what I heard Lu Chengzhi say later.

Someone told the emperor about this, demanding that tens of thousands of Lingnan people in Gyeonggi be killed, hundreds of thousands of Lingnan troops in Xiangyang should be killed, and then the southern expedition to Lingnan.

This is naturally nonsense, the emperor can't even cut down the counties of the Central Plains, he can't even beat Jinling, and he still fights Lingnan?

The emperor did not speak.

But there are people at the bottom who transfer troops without authorization.

The Lingnan people were very nervous, so they transferred the Lingnan army to Gyeonggi and informed the merchants of Lingnan, and as a result, the various departments of the imperial court were more nervous, and the troops were transferred faster, and then the Lingnan people were more nervous and moved faster, and so on.

It's like a servant arresting someone. If you run, he will chase, and if you chase him, he will run, who knows what's going on!

The next day, the emperor's decree did not come. In the next few days, the emperor did not mention it. This means that the emperor doesn't care about it at all.

The Lingnan people calmly packed up their things and left.

This is actually the best outcome.

Lin Li left, and took all the 300,000 marines with him when he left. Thousands of warships returned from Xiangyang along the Yangtze River.

Whether it was the Chang'an Imperial Court or the Jiangnan Imperial Court, they all exhaled a sigh of relief, as if they were sending off the king of Hades.

When thousands of warships passed by Jinling, which was controlled by the Han Emperor Liu Xingchao, there was no reaction from either side. It is said that instead of fighting, they waved flags at each other. Anyway, no one can destroy anyone, can they afford to fight for Chang'an's benefit? Lingnan is not stupid, and Jinling is not stupid.

When the Lingnan people are gone, it is like eating a bully meal; not only ate a bully meal, but also pulled a bubble of on the dinner table.

In short, thank God, hundreds of thousands of Lingnan troops returned to Lingnan, and the matter ended.

But no.

The Lingnan people are gone, leaving behind a piece of chicken feathers.

In February, it is the coldest time of the year, but the court meeting of the imperial court is quite lively.

This kind of liveliness reminds me of an idiom "although the sparrow is small, it has all five organs". Your Tang Dynasty court controls Gyeonggi Province, and it is actually so lively.

You think, each province has its own boss - the Central Plains is an exception, it has no boss, but it is full of gangs - the Tang Dynasty only controls Gyeonggi.

Wait, I can't even say that, because Gyeonggi is not controlled by the imperial court at all, and the object of allegiance of the Gyeonggi Shi clan is Yang Myeongyang, the head of the Hongnong Yang family, the first Gyeonggi Shi clan.

And Emperor Li Hongsi was able to confront Yang Mingyang of Gyeonggi, not because he was the emperor, but because the emperor's eldest wife was the boss of Liaodong, and the other wife was the daughter of the boss of Xiliang......

However, the imperial court is the imperial court after all, even if it has no power, it is good to make a name.

These guys are making irresponsible remarks about the Lingnan people. The "Lingnan Incident" was the first event of the founding of the Tang Dynasty. Actually, it's not a matter at all, but people who do good things have to say it.

Zhang Qiangsheng, director of the Secret Division, said: "Your Majesty, the people of Lingnan are so arrogant that they don't take my Tang Dynasty court seriously at all. I implore Your Majesty to re-establish the Council of Elders, rebuild the Inner Court in accordance with the Book of the Senates, and create an invincible forbidden army. ”

Prime Minister Yang Mingyang said: "Lingnan is thousands of miles away, what should they do? ”

Zhang Qiangsheng: "Lingnan can ignore it, what about other provinces?" ”

Yang Mingyang: "What happened to the other provinces? ”

Zhang Qiangsheng: "They don't obey Chang'an either. ”

Yang Mingyang: "Who said that?" Everyone is genuinely loyal to His Majesty. ”

Zhang Qiangsheng: "'Sincerely'? I think it's the opposite. ”

Yang Mingyang: "You don't sow discord here!" The Criminal Department shows that it is your people who want to arrest Lingnan people and provoke Lingnan rebellion! When Lingnan rebels, you will expand your power! ”

At present, Datang has four major intelligence agencies. First, in the Criminal Department, Yang Mingyang is the boss. Second, in the secret department, Zhang Qiangsheng is the boss. Third, in the Intelligence Department, Chen Enze is the boss. Fourth, Jin Yiwei and Lu Chengzhi are the bosses. Among them, the criminal department and Jinyiwei are close, and they are considered to be foreign courts; The secret department and the intelligence department are close to each other, and they are counted as the inner court.

Zhang Qiangsheng: "Am I so stupid? Now that we are not strong, can we be guilty of stirring up trouble? ”

Yang Mingyang: "It's your person!" You've got thousands of people from the palace to catch you! My people saw it with their own eyes! ”

Zhang Qiangsheng: "Nonsense. ”

Yang Mingyang shouted: "Someone! ”

A couple of lewd people came. They said, "We saw with our own eyes, the people from the Royal Secret Service came out of the palace and went to arrest people with the Forbidden Army and the Imperial Army. As a result, they found that there were tens of thousands of Lingnan troops there, and they did not dare to arrest them. ”

Zhang Qiangsheng shouted: "Impossible! Without my orders, my people dare not move. ”

After arguing for a while, Zhang Qiangsheng suddenly said: "It's not someone from the secret department, is it someone from the intelligence department?" ”

Chen Enze, the director of the intelligence department, hurriedly stepped forward and said, "It's not our people. If the intelligence department does not have military authority, how can it mobilize troops? ”

Zhang Qiangsheng knelt down to the emperor: "Your Majesty, is it Your Majesty's order?" ”

Emperor Li Hongsi was a little strange and said, "No, I don't know about this. ”

Zhang Qiangsheng looked around and found that there was a person with a nervous expression - Zheng Anmin beside the emperor.

Zhang Qiangsheng said to Zheng Anmin: "You took people there?" Why do you, a harem eunuch, command the forbidden army and the imperial army? ”

In the past, the forbidden army was under the command of the inner court, and the imperial army was under the command of the emperor. But now, the inner court exists in name only, and the nominal head of the inner court, Zhao Yuyang, has only tens of thousands of household troops, and it is far away in East Chang'an, so the forbidden army and the imperial army are personally commanded by the emperor.

Zheng Anmin knelt down for the emperor and shouted: "I'm all for the emperor!" I want to capture the thief and capture the king first......"

Yang Mingyang was furious: "Okay, bold and rebellious ......"

Zheng Anmin kowtowed to the emperor: "Your Majesty, I'm doing this for you......"

The emperor waved his hand: "Alright! Forget about it, nothing major happened. ”

Yang Mingyang and Zhang Qiangsheng still had to speak, and the emperor said: "Don't make trouble if it's okay." Retreat! ”

As a result, the affairs of the Lingnan people ended forever.

Since then, people have never seen Lingnan people again – of course, this cannot be true......

Ha ha.
