Chapter 114: War Resumes
Hearing Liu Yi say this, Li Xian's eyes had unconcealed surprise and shock, and he looked at Liu Yi fixedly, and suddenly didn't know what to say, what Liu Yi said was too unexpected for him, and no one had ever told him.
Liu Yi didn't say anything more, he waited for Li Xian's inquiry, if Li Xian asked him anything, he would have a good chat with Li Xian.
"There is a lot of mystery in what Yi An said, I feel very reasonable, I want to hear what you say!" Li Xian regained his expression and motioned to Liu Yidao.
"His Royal Highness Prince Xie," Liu Yi breathed a sigh of relief and sat down beside Li Xian, ready to chat with the crown prince.
A faint smile appeared on Li Xian's face, "Yi An knows some life philosophies very well, and Gu is also very interested in this, let's talk about these things today!"
Liu Yi was about to answer, but a person who looked like a eunuch asked to see him outside, and after getting permission, he hurriedly ran in and whispered a few words in Li Xian's ear, and Li Xian's face changed greatly.
"Yi'an, I still have important things to deal with today, so I can only talk to you about things again!" Li Xian got up and said with some regret.
Liu Yi also got up, "Your Highness is busy with affairs, the last general will not dare to disturb, so I will leave first!" And when he had said that, he turned and departed.
--------
Liu Yi came out of the East Palace, wondering if he was too direct.
Liu Yi wanted to say these words to Li Xian for a long time, he knew that it was not far from Li Xian's abolition in the original history, if Li Xian still did many things against Wu Zetian as recorded in the original history, the tragedy would be repeated.
Among the three sons of Wu Zetian who Liu Yi has seen and are still alive, whether it is according to Liu Yi's own observations, or from Shangguan Wan'er's mouth, and what others have said, as well as the records in history that Liu Yi knows, Li Xian is the best in talent and ability, and is the smartest of all the sons born to Li Zhi, of course, it can also be said to be the most qualified successor of the Tang Empire. There is also the support of hundreds of officials.
Liu Yi is also thinking, if the Tang Empire does not hand over the throne to Wu Zetian in the next time, but falls into the hands of Li Xian, what will it look like, will it be bigger than the original? Will the prosperous Tang Dynasty come one step earlier?
Liu Yi gave a positive answer, he was sure that Li Xian would definitely be better as emperor than his mother Wu Zetian as emperor, at least one point, there would be no turmoil in the Tang Dynasty, a large number of loyal ministers and good generals would not be unjustly killed, and many defeats in wars with foreign clans would not happen.
With such thoughts, Liu Yi strongly hopes that Li Xian can protect himself wisely, not directly confront Wu Zetian, keep the crown prince, and avoid the fate of being deposed, so that after Li Zhi's death, he can inherit the throne logically, and when he becomes the emperor, he can slowly deprive himself of power from Wu Zetian, Liu Yi also believes that with Li Xian's talent and surname, as long as he does not make mistakes after succeeding to the throne, most of the courtiers in the court will support him, and Wu Zetian has not removed his excuse for the throne.
In the original history, Zhongzong Li Xian succeeded to the throne and gave his queen Wei a lot of rights, and even said that he could hand over the whole world to her, which annoyed Wu Zetian, and Wu Zetian, with the support of Pei Yan and other ministers, abolished Li Xian's throne. After deposing Li Xian's throne, Wu Zetian did not take it himself, but let his youngest son Li Dan be the emperor, until a few years later, all obstacles were removed, and then he became the emperor himself, and it has been many years since Li Zhi died.
If history changes, Li Xian was not abolished, but inherited the throne logically, and many government measures are in line with the people's will, make great efforts, and govern the Tang Dynasty better, then there are still courtiers to support Li Xian and set up other princes as emperors? Such a possibility is not big, at least the ministers who were orphaned by Li Zhituo would not do this, and it would not be so easy for Wu Zetian to take Emperor Li Xian away.
It is precisely because of these thoughts that there are these words that imply the surname of Li Xian today, Liu Yi doesn't know if Li Xian can understand it, whether he will accept it, if he can realize it, it is the best, if he can't, it is also a troublesome matter.
Liu Yi knew that he was a little reckless to say this today, but the opportunity to be alone with Li Xian was really few, and in a few days, he would return to Luoyang, I hope Li Xian will not let himself down, and Liu Yi also hopes that he will have the opportunity to talk to him about some things in the future.
After coming out of the East Palace, Liu Yi was about to go to Qianniuwei's yamen, but just after leaving the gate of the East Palace, he ran into Liu Renliang.
Although Liu Yi had prejudices against Liu Renliang, he didn't dare to be rude, so he also went up to salute.
Liu Renliang seemed to have completely forgotten what Liu Yi said when he asked him again, and after Liu Yi saluted, he said to Liu Yi very cordially, "Virtuous nephew, I haven't seen you for a long time, and the old man is very pleased to hear your deeds in Luoyang!"
"Thank you Liu Xiang for your strong recommendation, the last general is grateful!" Liu Yi saluted respectfully again, he already knew that Liu Renliang had recommended himself in front of Li Zhi and Wu Zetian many times, no matter what Liu Renliang did before, he still had to thank him for this.
"Virtuous nephew, now that you have been entrusted with this position, it is all obtained by your own ability," Liu Renliang said with a smile, "The imperial court will raise troops again, I hope that in the near future, we can see the scene of the virtuous nephew leading the troops to the expedition and returning triumphantly!"
Listening to what Liu Renliang said, Liu Yi had a sudden attack in his heart, the imperial court will raise troops again, and there will be another war at the border? Liu Yi suddenly became excited, "If there is a chance to go on the expedition, the last general will definitely not live up to Liu Xiang's expectations!"
Liu Renliang didn't say anything more, and said goodbye to Liu Yi on the grounds that there was something to do, and went to the East Palace.
Liu Yi looked at Liu Renliang suspiciously, this important minister who was left in Chang'an to assist Li Xian, what was the reason for going in so hastily? Why don't you make it clear to yourself?
------------
Liu Yi went to the Qianniu Wei official office to report, and said some words to several Qianniu who stayed in Daming Palace, and then returned to his mansion and prepared to return to Luoyang.
How do you know that when Liu Yi went to report to the palace, the next time he saw Li Xian, the Yamen of the Ministry of War sent someone over and conveyed the order, so that Liu Yi did not have to return to Luoyang, just stand by in the Chang'an Mansion.
Liu Yi knew that there had been an unexpected situation in the past two days, and he tried every means to find around.
After a lot of thought, Liu Yi finally found out the news two days later.
Under the rule of Shan Yu Dadu Protectorate in Anbei, the Turkic chieftains Ashdwin Fu and Ashina rebelled and supported Ashina as the khan, and the chiefs of the twenty-four states responded to them, and the rebels gathered hundreds of thousands for a time.
The news of the rebellion in the north was sent directly to Luoyang, and then from Luoyang to the hands of the crown prince Li Xian and other officials who stayed in Chang'an, which also made Chang'an get the news later than Luoyang, Liu Yi also understood, and it was definitely this matter that Li Xian had to deal with.
Liu Yi was very upset when he heard the news, he didn't expect that just after leaving Luoyang for more than ten days, such a major event had happened, and the imperial court would definitely send a large army to quell the rebellion, but he was still in Chang'an, and he couldn't face the saint to ask for battle.
And the order of the military department asked him to stand by in the palace, so that Liu Yi was so anxious that he was ruthless, and he was still ready to enter the palace to ask the crown prince Li Xian, and wanted to ask the emperor Li Zhi and Empress Wu Zetian in Luoyang to go on the expedition through Li Xian. Liu Yi knows that if he misses this opportunity, he doesn't know when he will have the opportunity to go on the expedition next time...;
