Chapter 39: It's good to be ambitious, but be self-aware

It's good to be ambitious, but be self-aware.

You can't run away, Shou'an Palace is so big.

Dong Congshi must have a back hand.

Maybe Dong Congshi just hopes that he will run away and die in the hands of the rebellious army, he doesn't have to bear the crime of killing the king, and then pick a young prince to take the throne, and Chang'an and the Zhenguo army will fall into his hands.

I don't know how many people's interests have been touched by my own inventory of fields, and even Liu Jishu, a weak eunuch, dares to use a knife with him, not to mention people outside.

If you think about this, you don't want to run.

At least Dong Congshi is a smart person, he knows who can be killed and who can't be killed, and he can't afford to kill the king.

In the two hundred and eighty years of the Tang Dynasty, there were always people who wanted to go to the imperial court, and the feudal towns would also rush to kill the monarchs to win the popularity.

So waiting for someone to come to the rescue is the best choice, Li Ye doesn't believe that Zhang Chengye knows that there is chaos in the palace, will he come to the rescue? As time passed, the shouts of killing outside became louder and louder, and Li Ye couldn't help but suspect that he had guessed wrong? Are all these princes hidden?

As if to confirm his guess, Dong Congshi retreated into the hall covered in blood, with two feather arrows stuck in his chest, panting like a cow.

The soldiers around him were also wounded.

"Kill the traitor, kill the traitor!" Outside the hall boiled and the sky was shining.

The overall situation has been decided, and the fighting outside the hall is getting weaker and weaker.

"Dong Congshi listens, as long as Your Majesty is safe and sound, you can be guaranteed not to die! Otherwise, you will be punished by the Nine Clans! It was Zhang Chengye's voice.

Li Ye was overjoyed, with Xin Shilang by his side, Dong Congshi couldn't help him anymore.

Dong Congshi was like a wounded wolf, looking at Li Ye with a calm gaze, his only hope of getting out of trouble at this moment was to hold the emperor hostage and threaten people outside.

Xin Shilang and the three guards picked up the long knife on the ground and blocked it in front of Li Ye.

"You've lost." Li Ye's heart is a lot more stable.

Dong Congshi's gaze swept over Li Ye's face like a knife, and it seemed that he was about to burst out at any time.

The beast's dying blow was the most terrifying.

What Li Ye is most afraid of is that he is desperate for everything, "You don't have a chance, even if you hold me hostage, what can you do?" Escaped from the palace, escaped from Chang'an? Do you want your family's lives? ”

The life of his family finally awakened Dong Congshi's reason.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty, for removing the last obstacle in Chang'an City." In an instant, deep exhaustion surged up on Dong Congshi's face. Li Ye thought of subduing him, "Surrender, I will give you a way to live." ”

Dong Congshi laughed wildly: "The general just said, we all have only one way to go, the general joined the army at the age of thirteen, fought in the bloody battles of Huang Chao, Zhu Mei, Li Keyong, Li Maozhen, never thought of surrendering, today's defeat, it is really the heavens do not help me, why does Your Majesty use surrender to humiliate the general?" ”

After speaking, he showed his white teeth, his eyes were as sharp as a sword, and he put the long knife across his neck, "The end will go, I hope to know Your Majesty early in the next life, and open up territory for Your Majesty!" ”

"Don't ......" Li Ye didn't say anything, blood had spurted out of Dong Congshi's throat, and Dong Congshi fell down with a bang.

Li Ye let out a long sigh, feeling panicked in his heart, and sat in the hall silent for a long time.

From the perspective of a later generation, none of the three generals of Shence should die, because they once shed blood for the Tang Dynasty.

What made them what they are now?

This is the first question that Li Ye has to think about.

Especially Dong Congshi, if he was strong in the Tang Dynasty, he would be a good general at his level, but unfortunately, at the end of the chaotic Tang Dynasty, he was like a drop of water drowning in the long river of history.

Killing and killing, although he won, he was not happy at all.

"The minister's escort is late, everyone forgive the sins!" Seeing that the emperor was safe and sound, Zhang Chengye hurriedly threw down the lance in his hand and fell to the ground.

"Get up, I'm fine." Li Ye cleaned up the messy emotions.

"Your Majesty is mighty, Your Majesty is mighty!" There was a loud cry outside the hall.

Li Ye walked out of the main hall, the outside was brightly lit, and Gao Xingzhou stood at the foot of the steps.

Countless pairs of eyes looked at him. On the other side of the main hall, there are many princes and eunuchs lined up, some of whom Li Ye knows, and some who Li Ye does not know.

Indeed, as Dong Congshi said, these people are his last obstacles.

Li Ye asked them to be escorted to the stage, and one by one burst into tears, saying that he was bewitched by a traitor, and he just wanted to rescue the emperor, and he had no other intentions.

At this moment, Li Ye's mind echoed Liu Jishu's words: "Either don't do it, or do it!" ”

From the moment he decided to revive the Tang Dynasty, he was destined to face countless powerful enemies, internal and external.

This time he is still alive, it can only be said that he is lucky, the most fierce Dong Congshi does not want to kill himself.

But what about next time? Can you leave some leeway like Dong Congshi?

Either don't do it or do it!

Li Ye raised his horizontal knife and roared: "God bless the Tang Dynasty!" ”

"God bless Datang!" The soldiers in the audience roared angrily.

The horizontal knife whistled down, and the head of the Thistle King rolled down the steps.

The soldiers' roars intensified. Li Ye cut off the heads of three princes in a row before he put away the horizontal knife and said to Zhang Chengye: "How to deal with the rest of the people, you can watch it, but Liu Jishu can't be spared!" ”

Li Ye can forgive Liu Jishu, because his knife did move on his head, but he can't forgive Wang Zhongxian.

This man's explanation is that he has a psychological distortion and killed two loyal guards.

Although others are dead, they must pay for their actions!

"Command!" Zhang Chengye breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

"From now on, the Tonghua battalion will be abolished, and all the Shence army will be handed over to General Gao Xingzhou for screening, those who can be used will stay, and those who cannot be used will go, and from now on, the Shence army will not raise waste people!" Such a good opportunity to rectify the Shence Army, of course Li Ye will not let it go.

"The last general commands!"

"From now on, the Shence Army will receive three buckets of food every month, and those who have meritorious service will be rewarded, those who have been injured will be treated, and those who have lost in war will be cared for!" Li Ye took the opportunity to improve the treatment of the Shence Army.

Of course, his voice alone was not very loud, and the guards who rushed around him shouted along, so that every soldier present could hear Li Ye's promise.

A bucket of grain is equivalent to ten catties, that is, each soldier can receive thirty catties of grain per month, and the ration of an adult strong laborer is almost one catty, thirty catties of grain, enough for them to feed their families.

The soldiers of this era all worked for nothing, either to rob or rely on the rewards of the superiors.

It's good to be able to eat a full meal on a regular basis, but as for the soldiers, it's something that I can't even think of.

"Hooray! Long live Your Majesty, long live Datang! Thousands of Divine Commanders roared.

If the soldiers can't live in peace, how can the army be cohesive? And how can it be combative?

This night, Li Ye's prestige was pushed to the top, and the Shence Army really returned to his heart at this time.

Under the constraints of Zhang Chengye and Gao Xingzhou, the soldiers withdrew from the palace in an orderly manner, and the guards all searched for Liu Jishu's henchmen in the palace.

Strictly speaking, Liu Quanli is also Liu Jishu's henchman and his godson, but Li Ye doesn't intend to implicate him, it's still the same sentence, what he wants is someone who can do things. Li Ye returned to Shou'an Palace, and the imperial doctor was treating Pei Zhenyi.

That is, to clean the wound, apply gold sore medicine, and prescribe some herbs to nourish blood and qi.

Li Ye asked people to send linen cloth and other things, and after steaming, he left a palace maid to help and bandage her personally.

He also personally kept a vigil for her.

Li Ye felt that although Zhaozong had a bad fate, several women around him were not bad and were willing to sacrifice their lives for him.

In contrast, the prestigious Li Cunqiao was not so lucky, and his queen almost buried his country.

Thinking about it, I fell asleep on the edge of the bed.

When she woke up, it was already dawn, and Pei Zhen looked at Li Ye with tears in her eyes.

"Wake up, do you feel better?" Li Ye inquired warmly.

"Your Majesty, concubines, ......" Pei Zhenyi was moved and incoherent.

Li Ye stroked her forehead, it was not so hot, and said softly: "Don't talk, rest well, and take care of your body." Then he instructed the palace maids standing in a row outside to serve carefully.

When he went out, Liu Quanli was already waiting outside, and it seemed that he had not slept all night.

Also, for such a big thing, the godfather has fallen, and it is strange that he can fall asleep.

"Your Majesty......" Liu Quan fell to the ground.

The mutiny is the most dangerous, according to the past practice, standing on the wrong team, the head falls to the ground, the family is not protected, Liu Quanli is unharmed, and he is specially protected by Li Ye, and everyone with a discerning eye knows the weight of this Liu Quanli in the emperor's heart. "Okay, okay, let's do things in peace, I don't need all this red tape."

Liu Quanli was also grateful, "Your Majesty, rest assured, the slave and maid will repay Your Majesty!" ”
