Chapter 192: The two dragons meet

"The saint is coming to the Xuanwu Gate, please ask Zhang Lingxin, the general of the Right Dragon Martial Army, to open the city gate and welcome the saint into the camp!"

Outside the Xuanwu Gate, Fang Youde shouted at the city in a loud voice. Behind him were a group of Jinwu guards wearing red military uniforms.

Different people have different lives, Wu Zhiyi can't open the Xuanwu Gate, Fang Youde said the word "saint", Zhang Lingxin did not hesitate to order people to open the city, and personally greeted Li Linfu.

The wide basalt door was opened, with a tooth-aching grinding sound.

Zhang Lingxin, the general of the Right Dragon Martial Army, and Li Linfu, the right minister, appeared in front of the tired Li Longji together, and then knelt down and saluted: "Welcome the saint into the camp!" ”

"Well, get up, don't be polite."

Brother Ji waved his hand calmly, and after Zhang Lingxin and Li Linfu got up, Li Linfu said to Li Longji:

"The traitor Li Heng has been captured by us and is currently being held in the barracks. Li Heng's family members have also been captured by us and others, please send them down. ”

Li Linfu's classic words did not mention where Li Heng was arrested.

It's a pity that he and Zhang Lingxin hurriedly roared to invite credit, but Li Longji shook his head with a lack of interest and said, "I'm tired, let's go to Xiyuan first." ”

Li Linfu suddenly felt his heart sink, he had never seen Brother Ji so cold, and he secretly complained in his heart.

Everyone entered the main hall of the West Inner Garden, and after taking their seats, Li Longji instructed Fang Youde beside him: "Quan Zhong, you can handle the rest of the things, I will wait for your good news." ”

Hearing this, everyone present was shocked. Especially Zhang Lingxin, he thought that he was cleaning up the situation by himself, but he didn't expect Li Longji to entrust a person who appeared out of nowhere.

Finding that many people in the hall were not quite right, Brother Ji snorted coldly and said:

"I now appoint Fang Youde as the general of the Longwu Army, commanding the left and right armies, and the other Nanya forbidden troops are all at his disposal to help quell the rebellion and capture Li Heng's henchmen.

I have made up my mind, and there is no need to say more. ”

Li Longji directly said it to death!

This rebellion exposed the big problem of the security of the Chang'an Forbidden Army, that is, the lack of a capable and efficient, small but quick response, one as ten, and a very loyal core personal garrison force that would not be bought.

In a terrain like Chang'an, this army does not need to have many people, and it can be 500 battalions. At the critical moment, it was enough to protect Li Longji from entering the garrison of the Beiya Forbidden Army.

In the process of building the army, the Longwu Army continued to expand its establishment, but the backbone was constantly diluted, and some nepotistic households with low combat effectiveness were mixed in. These people are useless in fighting, and the bullshit is stubble after stubble.

When Li Longji gave the order at this moment, he was also thinking in his heart about how to reform the establishment of the forbidden army.

The main thing is how to improve the security around him.

"We will follow the orders of the saints!"

Everyone in the hall said in unison.

"Quan Zhong, it's up to you."

Li Longji patted Fang Youde's arm beside him and said earnestly.

"Please rest assured, the saint will go and clean up the situation in the end."

Fang Youde took Li Longji's personal seal, bowed his hand and said goodbye, and strode out of the Xiyuan Hall. In fact, at this moment, his heart has already set off turbulent waves, but now there are too many idle people around him, and it is difficult to show it.

Li Heng actually rebelled, and Li Heng was not named the crown prince!

What went wrong?

Fang Youde found that his original plan couldn't keep up with the changes in the current situation. Since Zhang Xun committed suicide to Yang Yuhuan, the trend of the whole history is completely different from what he remembered!

This made him feel a chill to the bone, and the hole cards he was proud of, I don't know when they started, they were completely useless!

"Let's clean up the mess first."

Fang Youde sighed, no matter what, the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty must be maintained. Since the old road didn't work, I had to try to find a new one.

……

"Wake him up with water!"

With a bang, cold, biting water poured onto his head, tugging at the painful wound.

Li Heng slowly opened his eyes, and then saw his "good father" Li Longji sitting on a high chair, looking at him with a playful gaze.

"Before I hit the road, I want to ask you why you rebelled."

Li Longji looked at Li Heng and said in a deep voice.

"Isn't King Shou finished, what else do I have to say?"

Li Heng had a sneer on his face, and stabbed back with a disdainful face.

"You guys really make me feel cold."

Li Longji shook his head slowly and said, his face was cold.

"Chilling? Father, you can really talk! ”

At this moment, the anger in Li Heng's heart was ignited.

"Speaking of chills, what other father is like you, who makes our children chill!

King Shou has two princesses, one is occupied by you, and the other is forced to death by you. My biggest mistake was that I didn't expect King Shou not to kill you!

I hate it! I hate myself for not seeing King Shou's hatred so deep, he can hate you to such an extent!

If King Shou had killed you at that time, now I would have sat on the dragon chair and become the next emperor of the Tang Dynasty!

What did I do wrong, you ask? So I'm telling you, I just miscalculated this step!

Father, hurry up, I killed three in one day back then, and I think today, if I don't kill ten, I'm afraid it will be difficult for you to dissipate your anger.

I'll go down and wait first, anyway, Huangquan Road is lively, and some are companions. ”

Li Heng scolded Li Longji!

It was like a madman, laughing and crying, and with his bruised face, it looked like a demon in hell.

"Son! Shut up! ”

Li Heng's words directly made Li Longji break the defense! This "good big boy", when he was dying, he didn't even feel that the rebellion was wrong, he just regretted that some details of the rebellion were not done well, which led to failure!

It just doesn't make sense!

Li Longji rushed up and grabbed Li Heng's bloodstained shirt on his chest, raised his hand and slapped him twice.

Syllable! Syllable!

These two slaps came down, and Li Heng didn't know if it hurt or not, anyway, Brother Ji felt that his hand hurt so much.

"Someone! This rebel son of mine ......"

Li Longji trembled with anger, pointed at Li Heng with his finger, and gave Zhang Lingxin half an order, and then suddenly stopped.

"Take it down, and serve in the prison. After I went to the court, I was transferred to Dali Temple Prison. ”

Brother Ji took a deep breath and said with anger suppressed.

"Hahahahaha! It's all this time, and you're still thinking about face! Father, you're useless! ”

Li Heng seemed to be very disappointed that Li Longji did not order his execution on the spot, and kept making provocative remarks. It's a pity that Brother Ji is as cold as iron now, and he doesn't want to listen to Li Heng continue to make noise there.

After Li Heng was taken down, Li Longji closed his eyes in pain.

One Li Heng has fallen, but how many "Li Heng" are still hidden among the remaining princes?

Send Li Heng's family to Huangquan Road, and if you kill it, you will kill it. But so many princes, can Li Longji kill them all?

If you kill the prince and cut the grass and eradicate the roots, then the emperor and grandson will naturally be killed.

That's a river of blood!

Li Longji instantly suppressed the idea of killing all the princes who participated in King Shou's "wedding banquet" this time.

If you don't accept it, if you really kill these unscrupulous people, then either the Li Tang Dynasty will collapse, or there will be a drama of "small sects and big sects".

This is the case with King Xue, who also participated in the rebellion.

Li Longji understands very well that if his heirs are not prosperous, then it is natural for the heirs of his brothers to compete for the orthodoxy of the royal family.

"Li Xuan, you are really ruthless, I underestimate you."

Brother Ji muttered to himself, regretting a little in his heart, whether he had gone too far.

Shouwang Li Xuan's personality was originally very cowardly, which he saw very clearly. Brother Ji thought that he had a cowardly personality anyway, and it didn't matter how he bullied him.

Unexpectedly, it was his ruthless oppression that forced Li Xuan, who was originally like a sheep, into a forbearant vicious dog.

Dogs that can bite people don't bark, Li Xuan's bite is really painful!

"Sage, the ventilation here is not good, please move the sage to the Xiyuan wing room to rest."

Zhang Lingxin had already sent someone to "settle" Li Heng, turned back, and saw that Li Longji was in a daze, so he reminded in a low voice.

"Well, let's go."

Li Longji stood up and nodded Mu Ran. At this moment, he looks like an old man in his last years.

……

In the autumn of the fifth year of Tianbao, Li Heng, the king of loyalty, rebelled, and united with Wu Zhiyi, the general of the Zuolong Wu Army, Li Xuan, the king of Xue, and Wei Jian, the emperor of the imperial history, and others, almost forcing Li Longji, the son of heaven of the Tang Dynasty, into a desperate situation.

Fortunately, Fang Youde, the Lingnan economic envoy who returned to Beijing to report on his work, temporarily seized the military power of the Nanya Forbidden Army, and led the troops to clean up the filth of Chang'an, and the saint turned the danger into safety.

As for Fang Chongyong, who protected Li Longji from danger, Zhang Lingxin and Li Linfu, who stabilized the Longwu Army, Zheng Shuqing, who failed to mobilize the Nanya Forbidden Army into the city, and Li Yi, the king of Xin'an, who was on top at the critical moment, did not mention a word in the official document issued by the government.

King Shou held Ji Ge hostage at the wedding banquet, so it is even more impossible to mention.

On the surface, Li Longji just issued an order to give all the male members of the loyal king Li Heng to death, and the female dependents were assigned to the priest. And the other kings in the Ten Kings' Mansion, including Li Xuan, the king of Shou, did not have any substantive punishment.

Even in the vein of King Xue, Brother Ji only ordered Li Xuan to commit suicide, and the other members of the clan in King Xue's mansion thought about it and were not allowed to leave King Xue's mansion for a year.

But in fact, Li Heng has a very wide network, and the forces under the surface of the water cannot be underestimated, and those who are seriously implicated in this case are very serious.

Wu Zhiyi, the "culprit" of the rebellion, had already been killed in the clash and beheaded by a general named He Qichang. Wei Jian and others cooperated with Li Heng to make a rebellion, and the whole family was exiled to Lingnan.

This kind of punishment, according to the "rules" of the past, is really not worth mentioning. Therefore, I can only conservatively believe that Li Longji's big move has not yet come, and this Tang Dynasty emperor should still be thinking about who should be killed, who should be dismissed and exiled, and who should be promoted.

After these things are done, it will not affect the operation of the government.

However, these things have nothing to do with Fang Chongyong. He, the halberd of the Dragon Martial Army, has once again returned to the state of salted fish, clocking in and out of work every day, going home from work, and playing with his wife at night.

And Fang Chongyong's "great rescue achievement" this time, Brother Ji seemed to have forgotten, not only him, but even Zhang Guangsheng, who ran errands all over the venue and sent many key letters, did not receive any reward. As a result, Zhang Guangsheng would go to Fang Chongyong's house every day after work to drink and complain with him, saying that Li Longji was "mean and unkind".

As for Fang Youde, although Fang Chongyong knew that his father had returned to Chang'an, he didn't even have a chance to talk to him.

On this day, Fang Chongyong dragged his tired body to the door of his house in Yongjiafang, and through the courtyard door, he heard the laughter of a woman inside.

After opening the courtyard door, he found that not only Fang Dafu and Fang Laique were back, but there was also a tall and thin middle-aged man in the lobby, chatting with Wang Yunxiu, Anaye was serving and making tea diligently, and the two daughters were all smiling, chatting with the man, very pleasant.

For a while, Fang Chongyong thought that he was in the wrong place!

"Since everyone lives at home, why don't you get married?"

As soon as the man saw Fang Chongyong, he asked with his head and face.

"Father, isn't this busy......"

Fang Chongyong replied cautiously.

As soon as he entered the door, he recognized it, this is Fang Youde, who pretends not to see him every time he enters Xingqing Palace! A cheap scumbag dad with his own body!

"Nonsense! How can a marriage event be child's play!

Three days later, the wedding will be held, well, it will be fine to hold a low-key event, do not make a show, and do not invite a saint to come.

You know if your life is good or not, not for others to see. ”

Fang Youde said thoughtfully.

Hearing this, Fang Chongyong breathed a sigh of relief, he was really afraid of inviting Brother Ji here.

"And your concubine, you have to treat it well, understand?"

Fang Youde pointed at Anaye and said.

"Understood, father."

Fang Chongyong nodded indifferently.

"Then you come to the study with me, I have something important to discuss with you."

Fang Youde stood up and walked in the direction of the study, he turned around and saw that Fang Chongyong did not follow, and asked with a slight frown: "What are you doing standing there?" Not yet! ”

Fang Chongyong was beating a drum in his heart, so he had to slowly follow behind the other party and enter the study together.

After the two sat down, Fang Youde seemed to be recalling something, and sat there without speaking.

"You've been stupid since you were a child, and you can't speak at the age of five. I think troubled times may come, and you will not be able to protect yourself then.

And what I want to do is destined to cut off my children and grandchildren, so I set up a bureau back then, I wanted to get rid of you by the hand of Zheng Shuqing, so that you would not suffer in the world, alas! ”

Fang Youde sighed with emotion.

"Father is really ruthless."

Fang Chongyong said expressionlessly, in fact, he had already noticed that Fang Youde was subconsciously avoiding his only son.

"It's not ruthless, after all, you fell into a coma after falling into the water. As a result, when he woke up, he was as omnipotent as a prodigy.

So I knew that my stupid son was already dead, and now I was just a monster with my son's body in front of me. ”

Fang Youde looked at Fang Chongyong and said with burning eyes.

"If I say I'm a monster, why isn't my father a monster?"

Fang Chongyong looked at him without showing weakness and said back.

"Hahahahaha! Good! You can say that again! Good scolding! We're a monster father and son! ”

Fang Youde patted the bookcase and laughed, laughing so much that tears came out.

"Huangliang is a dream, when I saw the collapse of Datang with my own eyes, I couldn't do anything, so I lived and died with Datang.

When he woke up, he was in the cave of Dunhuang, half of his body was buried, and he should be a martyred slave. Out of the cave, it is the Tang Dynasty, and God treats me well.

Do you know that a hundred years later, there will be a person named Zhu Wen who will destroy the Tang Dynasty and win the world.

Because he expressed his loyalty, he used loyalty as his expression to introspect.

In this life, a certain will make this prosperous era of the Tang Dynasty never lose its brilliance! ”

Fang Youde had a sickly smile on his face, as if Datang was his own son.

"Juwen?"

Fang Chongyong asked with a puzzled expression.

"Yes, I was born in a small family, and my name is unknown. You never thought that such a person would destroy the Tang Dynasty. ”

Fang Youde said with regret, he had held back these words for many years, and today he finally had someone to talk to, he was really happy.

"Your version is a bit old."

Fang Chongyong couldn't help but whisper.

"Huh?"

Fang Youde, who was in excitement, didn't hear what Fang Chongyong said just now, and snorted suspiciously.

"I mean, it's really impermanent."
