And this happens to be where Zhang Zheng's strategy is clever. If Zhang Zheng wanted to take Li Chengqian away by conventional means, not to mention that Li Er would not agree.

Even the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty would drown Zhang Zheng with spit. But it's different with unconventional means.

With Li Er's wisdom, he could instantly understand the intention of Zhang Zheng's move. And this is indeed the most worry-free and labor-saving way.

But the Manchu civil and military forces would also drown Zhang Zheng with spittle stars. Therefore, Zhang Zheng's second link in abducting Li Chengqian was to let the two soldiers guarding the door see clearly.

It was Zhang Zheng who kidnapped Li Chengqian. And once Li Shimin knew that the person who kidnapped Li Chengqian was Zhang Zheng, he would definitely choose to suppress the news.

This is the benefit of talent and status, how can you say that the son-in-law is also half a son. Besides, it's half of talent and appearance.

And Zhang Zheng is determined, with Li Er's emphasis on his ability. Next, if you want to continue to reuse yourself, you must not let the Manchu civil and military have a bad feeling for yourself.

Therefore, it is logical that Li Shimin will choose to wipe Zhang Zheng's ass in the end. Li Shimin wants to cover up for Zhang Zheng, so the best way is to choose to cover his ears and steal the bell, pretending that this incident has never happened.

In this way, the muzzle of the Manchu civil and military guns will be removed from Zhang Zheng and turned to Li Shimin. Since this incident has not happened, the soldiers who are guarding the palace today will naturally be safe and sound.

The whole strategy is interlocking and natural, without any mud and water. Thumbs up

"Clever plan" is not too much! Even Li Shimin, after sorting out all the order and causal relationships. I also had to secretly praise in my heart: "Little bastard, good means." When he first learned the news, Li Shimin didn't think about sending someone to chase him.

It's just that as soon as this idea came to mind, it was directly denied by Li Shimin. Since Zhang Zheng has calculated everything, how can he let Li Shimin send someone to catch up.

However, Li Shimin guessed a little wrong. That is, the route chosen by Zhang Zheng is not out of the Qinling Mountains, taking Dongting, and then entering the Wuling Mountains as ordinary people think.

Instead, the waterway was chosen. It was when the two soldiers guarding the door sighed that they had escaped death. Zhang Zheng and Li Chengqian were already sitting in a canopy boat eating barbecue.

Naturally, the boat was brought from the Weihe wharf outside Chang'an City, and tomorrow there will be people from the Guogong Mansion who will go to the wharf to find the owner to pay.

The boat is not big, but it can still fit a dozen people. There is even a spare place for Li Chengqian and Zhang Zheng to make skewers.

Because this time he went to Lingnan was different from when he went to Jinyang, Zhang Zheng decided to go simple. When you go to Jinyang, you need to bring more people, because life and death are uncertain before you go.

If you bring more people, your life safety is guaranteed. When you go to Lingnan, you will bring more people and fewer people.

Anyway, Feng Ang had 8,000 elite soldiers under his command. If Feng Ang really moved to kill, then it would be useless for Zhang Zheng to tie two folds to his belt.

Therefore, it is better to take these guards and go back quickly. With them, it's enough to deal with general dangers.

Why did Zhang Zheng choose to take the waterway? Because it's fast! Walk the straight-line distance, that is, out of the Qinling Mountains, to Dongting Lake, and then cross the Wuling Mountains to Lingnan.

Judging from the map, the distance is indeed close. But Zhang Zheng vetoed it without even thinking about it. Judging from the current road situation of Datang.

In the case of taking the land route, if you want to walk from Chang'an to Lingnan, you have to take nearly two months at the earliest.

Even if it is going well in Lingnan, it will take three or four months just to walk.

And Zhang Zheng is now coming back to his senses. As early as when Dad called his eldest brother back, Zhang Zheng guessed that Daddy must have something to hide from him.

And now, some of Zhang Zheng's speculations have gradually become a reality. Li Er asked him to go to Lingnan, saying that he was entrusted with a heavy task.

But with Zhang Zheng's intelligence, he smelled a trace of unusual smell from the moment he got on the boat.

The opening of the Tang Royal Academy is imminent, and at this juncture, Li Shimin sent himself to the distant Lingnan.

If you want to say that this is not his father's arrangement, Zhang Zheng will not believe it. Zhang Zheng can probably guess the intention of Li Er and his father to arrange it like this.

It's nothing more than that those people are about to fight back, and it is very likely that they will be involved. Therefore, His Majesty discussed with his father, and sent himself to Lingnan to avoid trouble.

As for whether this speculation is the truth, Zhang Zheng believes that when he arrives in Lingnan, there will be an answer waiting for him.

Along the way, Zhang Zheng also thought about turning around and returning to Chang'an. just looked at Li Chengqian, who was kidnapped by himself, and had to dispel this unrealistic idea.

By the way, he comforted himself: "I am still young, I am still young, I am not afraid of no firewood to burn ......" is the reason why Zhang Zheng chose to take the waterway.

Take the waterway, from Chang'an with the Weishui downstream. From Tongguan into the Yellow River, then only need to walk a day's overland to reach Luoyang.

Then depart from Luoyang and take a boat from the canal to the south into the river. In the river from the river upstream into Jianghan, and from Jianghan Daze to the Xiangjiang River.

From the Xiangjiang River to the Qin Dynasty, it was built to connect the two major water systems of the Yangtze River and the Pearl River. Then turn into the Li River from the Ling Canal to the Pearl River, so that you can go directly to Lingnan.

It seems that most of the long way has been detoured, but in fact, because it is all waterways, the speed is very fast. And it can save a lot of trouble and a lot of tossing.

And in terms of time, it can also save at least one-third. In other words, the task that could only be completed in half a year has now been shortened to less than three months by Zhang Zheng.

There was a faster way to go, and that was by sea. But Zhang Zheng really didn't dare to trust Datang's shipbuilding technology today.

The river boats are better, and the sea boats are really forgotten. On the small canopy boat, Zhang Zheng and Li Chengqian sat opposite each other.

Li Chengqian raised his hand from time to time and rubbed the big bag on the back of his head. Then he muttered: "Brother Zheng'er, you guard, you are ruthless." Even if you knock lightly, you will be 'dizzy', why bother with such a heavy hand. Zhang Zheng handed a skewer of barbecue meat in his hand to Li Chengqian, and said with a smile: "Do a full set of plays, otherwise how would they believe that you were really taken away by me." When the two were talking, Chen Yu, who was standing behind Zhang Zheng, could only smile awkwardly.

But Chen Yu can swear that he really didn't use his strength. Li Chengqian didn't discuss this topic, but asked Zhang Zheng with some doubts: "My father won't send someone to chase us, right?" Zhang Zheng shook his head and replied: "Don't worry, Your Majesty will not only not send someone to chase after you, but will also issue an order to tell the courtiers that it is Your Majesty's will for you and me to go to Lingnan." ”

"That's good, that's good." Li Chengqian stared at Zhang Zheng with some weakness. Then he said a little shyly: "To be honest, it's the first time I've done such an outrageous thing since I was a child." Zhang Zhengjiao replied with a smile: "Isn't it exciting?" ”
