Chapter 1311: Li Xuan's ambition, Li Zhi's suspicion

Outside the Taiji Palace, Li Xuan, who was dressed in red and gold armor, stood first, and dozens of generals such as Wang Dezhen, Hei Yan Changzhi, Sun Renshi, Shi Xuan, and Brun Zanjian stood solemnly.

From the general manager, deputy general manager, supervising the army, to the general, the middle general, to the Lang general, dozens of meritorious ministers all waited solemnly outside the Taiji Palace, waiting for the emperor to summon them.

Looking down from above, a dense group of generals.

All of them were dressed in golden armor, silver helmets and red tassels, and red cloaks, with solemn faces and solemn expressions.

From a distance, it gives people a sense of oppressive impact.

Even vaguely, there was a hint of murderous intent.

Headed by Li Xuan, half of the generals in the northwest of the Tang Dynasty are outside the Taiji Hall today.

The rest was in the four towns of Anxi, led by Li Jinxing, the general of the right leading army, to suppress the Western Turks.

Most of the other northern wars have now been dissolved, with most of them in Hebei, and Xue Rengui, the prince of Pingyang County, in the clouds, controlling Ashina Nishu's Rao Le Du Governor's Mansion.

Originally, some of the generals under Pei Xingjian were transferred to the four towns of Anxi, some to the eastern part of the grassland, and some to Chang'an, which were Cheng Wuting and Zhang Qianqiao.

There are also some people in the Northeast Andong Prefecture, who have some friction with Silla every year, but there is no big war.

The rest are Liu Renliang, Li Jingxuan, Liu Xianli and other people who have not been on the battlefield for many years.

The only one who can handle it in the DPRK is Wang Xiaojie.

……

Li Xuan raised his head, and above the long golden stairs was a magnificent golden-red palace.

Taiji Palace, the most magnificent palace hall in the entire Tang Dynasty.

Even the Hanyuan Hall of Daming Palace and the Qianyuan Hall of Luoyang Palace cannot be compared.

Although the emperor has lived in Daming Palace for a long time, he will inevitably return to the Taiji Hall when he encounters real court and political events.

Because this palace is not only the grandest palace of the Tang Dynasty, but also the main hall of the Han and Wei palaces since the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties.

It is the first main hall of Miyagi in history to "build a neutral pole", and it is also the largest main hall in history.

Important state activities such as the New Year's Day, the new emperor's accession to the throne, the amnesty and the change of the yuan, and political decision-making are all carried out in the Taiji Palace.

Now in Datang, although because of the wet terrain and physical restlessness, Li Zhi moved to Daming Palace.

Although this palace will still be used at the most critical time, its importance has been increasingly replaced by the Hanyuan Hall and the Qianyuan Palace, especially the Qianyuan Palace.

Li Xuan was a prisoner in the Taimiao Temple before, and now he has gone to the Qianyuan Hall to confer the title, blessed by the ancestors of the heavens, if there is a day......

The thought was instantly extinguished, and the next moment, Li Xuan had completely forgotten about the fact that he had nearly a quarter of the elite cavalry in Datang.

Bow your head and lift it up again.

At this moment, he was already looking at the Liangyi Hall above with an extremely excited expression, and solemnly waited for the emperor to summon him.

At this moment, Wang Fulai and Qiu Eun walked out of the main hall at the same time, stood on the top of the golden steps, and shouted loudly: "Summoning Wang Xuan, the head of the march of some Dao of Nanchang, Wang Dezhen, the deputy head of the march, and the generals of some Dao of Luo, to meet you." ”

"Minister's order." Li Xuan and the others bowed their hands solemnly at the same time, and then stepped up the golden steps.

At this moment, Li Xuan deliberately walked half a step faster.

In the back, everyone didn't notice it, and they opened up a little distance from them.

On the golden steps, Wang Fulai, who originally looked solemn, couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then a trace of appreciation flashed in his eyes.

……

Li Zhi was dressed in a black gold-edged Nine Dragons Nine Chapters Dragon Robe, wearing twelve white jade on his head, sitting on the royal couch with a solemn expression.

Although he was rewarded today, he inadvertently let Li Zhi thoroughly see Li Xuan's prestige in the army of Luo Dao, and lay the foundation for his follow-up treatment of Luo Dao in the future.

Today's Luo Dao, in addition to the 30,000 elite guards under Li Xuan's command, there are also Changzhou state soldiers, Heyuanwei, Yangtong Subi cavalry, and 20,000 elite cavalry under the command of Brunzan when he came over.

A real 70,000 elite.

Moreover, there is also the military strength left after the destruction of Tibet.

That is, Li Xuan disbanded all these remnants of military strength without the slightest hesitation, otherwise before that, Li Zhi would have doubted Li Xuan's motives.

It is the emperor's instinct to be wary of the concentration of power by the generals in the army.

At the beginning, Pei Xingjian commanded an army of 170,000 with the head of the Dingxiangdao march, and the emperor was a little frightened.

First, Li Xuan was transferred back to guard the door, and before Li Xuan returned to the army during the New Year, Li Zhi transferred Wang Xiaojie back.

On the surface, although it is said that he is guarding against grassland accidents, in fact, deep down, Li Zhi is not guarding against Pei Xingjian.

Now all this falls on Li Xuan.

70,000 elite cavalry, under the attack, can go straight to Chang'an.

But then, Li Zhi's heart relaxed.

Not to mention that some Taoist generals are now in front of him, he can turn over and put everyone in prison at any time, not to mention that Li Jinxing, the general of the right leading army, has already led the army to Changzhou.

Li Zhi sighed a little in his heart, and it was only after the end of the war that he suddenly realized Li Xuan's threat.

The first thought was to completely dismember the army of the Logos.

And in the entire Luo army, except for Li Xuan, the strongest combat power is the right leading guard general Heizhi Changzhi, who transferred Heizhi Changzhi from Tibet......

At this time, Li Zhi suddenly remembered that at the beginning of the year, Li Xuan's majesty resigned, and he had firmly demanded that Heiya Changzhi take over his position as the governor of Changzhou.

Li Zhi subconsciously refused, and finally decided that Li Jinxing would take over the post of governor of Changzhou, and the black tooth Changzhi would remain in Tubo and be Li Xuan's deputy, while checking and balancing Li Xuan, he would also take over the position of the head of the Dao after Li Xuan left office.

But now it seems that whether it is Li Xuan or Hei Tooth Changzhi, it is unsettling to have 70,000 elites in their hands.

If earlier, when Li Xuan firmly proposed, he would have taken advantage of the situation to transfer the black tooth Changzhi away.

In this way, not to mention the separation of the 70,000 army, Li Zhi can also use the Black Tooth Changzhi as a barrier to resist Li Xuan's threat.

Li Zhi even had a faint feeling that Li Xuan's original proposal to make Heiya Changzhi the governor of Changzhou was his own idea.

Based on Li Zhi's understanding of Li Xuan, his control over the generals in the army is not so strong, and reports from all parties confirm this.

And all parties confirmed that the king of Nanchang had no ambitions.

Li Xuan proposed to make Heiya Changzhi the governor of Changzhou, in addition to reassuring the emperor, he could also make himself feel at ease.

It's a pity that he only saw that Hei Tooth Changzhi was a subordinate under Liu Renliang and Li Xuan, and once he succeeded Li Xuan as the governor of Changzhou, Li Xuan's influence in Changzhou was still there.

Once Li Xuan kills from the Luo Dao, the black tooth Changzhi will directly get out of the way and let Li Xuan kill all the way to Chang'an.

But now it seems that the transfer of Heizhi Changzhi to Changzhou, not to mention the distance between Changzhou and Luo, is the emperor himself, and there are countless means to completely control Changzhou, control the tens of thousands of troops under Heizhi Changzhi, and even directly control Heizhi Changzhi himself.

And this is probably Li Xuan's original intention.

Because he doesn't have those wanton ambitions himself, just to be able to reassure himself and the court.

In the end, Li Zhi confirmed this because Li Xuan mentioned in a recent letter that he hoped to transfer Yu Ze to Luo Dao and Ren Hu Cao to join the army.

In this way, Li Xuan completely gave up all influence in Changzhou, no longer intervened in Changzhou, and naturally there was no threat at all.

But even so, whenever he remembered that Li Xuan's men still had 70,000 elites, Li Zhi's heart was faintly uneasy.

No matter who this person is, no matter how loyal he is to himself, Li Zhi will subconsciously be vigilant.

It's an imperial instinct.

Now that it is impossible for Heiya Changzhi to be transferred to Changzhou, Li Zhi can only find a way elsewhere.

The DPRK and China also gave a set of strategies, and now it depends on whether Li Xuan cooperates or not.

Turning sideways to look at Empress Wu, who was dressed in a black phoenix robe on his side, Li Zhi was completely relieved.

Raising his head, Li Zhi looked at the door of the hall, and then saw Li Xuan take the lead in walking up the golden steps and appeared in the field of vision.

Immediately, two or three breaths passed, and there was only Li Xuan in his sight, with a solemn expression.

Li Zhi couldn't help but have a trace of doubt in his heart, and even when the doubt was not clear, the black tooth Changzhi, Sun Renshi and the others immediately walked up from under the golden steps, and immediately filled Li Zhi's field of vision.

Although a group of generals who were pressed by the black pressure directly entered the hall, giving people a great sense of oppression, what kind of person Li Zhi was, what kind of scene he had not experienced over the years, and his expression was still calm.

It's just that the moment his gaze passed over Li Xuan, Li Zhi suddenly noticed that there was a gap between Li Xuan and the generals in the rear, which was not obvious.

This gap may not be visible at all in other positions, but it can only be clearly seen from Li Zhi's position.

Li Xuan inadvertently opened up a relationship with the generals behind him.

Li Zhi was immediately completely relieved.

A satisfied smile appeared on his face.

……

Li Xuan's expression was solemn, his face was suppressed with excitement, and under the gaze of the ministers in the hall, he came to the middle of the main hall.

Li Xuan stood still, then half-knelt on the ground, arched his hand forward, and the generals behind him also stood at the same time, half-kneeling and arching his hand: "Minister, the head of the Luo Dao march, Nanchang Wang Xuan, the general of the Luo Dao army, see Your Majesty, Your Majesty has a long life." ”

"Ministers see Your Majesty, Your Majesty has a long life." A majestic voice echoed throughout the hall.

Li Zhi looked sideways to the side, and the provincial ceremonial attendant on the side stepped forward and said in a deep voice: "Xing!" ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Li Xuan, as well as the generals behind him, stood up at the same time.

Zhao Renben walked out from the left side, and said with a solemn face: "The Taimiao prisoners have been sacrificed, and the head of the march of the Luo Dao will start the military situation." ”

"Minister, the head of the march of Luo Dao, Wang Xuan of Nanchang, Your Majesty." Li Xuan bowed heavily, and at the same time, a piece of music was already in his hand.

"The Great War of the Northwest Road, since the third year of the Shangyuan Dynasty, Li Yifeng, Tiaolu, Yonglong, a total of six years, there are Liu Renliang, the chief of the Northwest Road March, Liu Xianli, the chief of the Northwest Road March, Li Jingxuan, the head of the Northwest Road March, Li Xuan, the head of the Luo Dao March, fought Tuguhun, broke the party, trapped Su Bi Yangtong, and went straight to Tubo."

In Li Xuan's speech, he brought Liu Renliang, Liu Xianli, Li Jingxuan and other previous coaches.

The three of them also turned sideways at the same time, bowing heavily towards the emperor.

"Before and after a total of 130,000 troops, on July 21 of the first year of Yonglong, the capital of Tubo was broken, the king of Tubo was obtained, the seal of the king of Tubo was handed over, and then the Tubo was transmitted, and the whole territory was determined.

The ministers handed over to His Majesty the edict of the Tubo King Chidu Songzan, the Tubo King Yin, and the Wang Du Luo some September household registers: The Tubo Kingdom is destroyed, and its land is all Tang Territory, and the people are all Tang people.

In six years, the 13th Army conquered and destroyed more than 300,000 enemies.

In this way, I congratulate Your Majesty on the prosperity of the martial arts and the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty. ”

The generals behind Li Xuan, as well as the ministers in the palace, solemnly bowed their hands at the same time: "The ministers congratulate Your Majesty on the prosperity of the martial arts, and the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty." ”
