"Your Majesty, by all means!"

Seeing this, Cai Xide was shocked, knelt down again with an ordinary sound, and hugged one of An Lushan's legs.

An Lushan was furious: "Sid, what do you mean? ”

Although the emperor of the Great Yan Kingdom, who had just ascended the throne, was very violent and cruel, after all, he had always been a person who was good at forbearance, otherwise, Li Longji would have already seen through his conspiracy and killed him, and he would not have given him enough military and financial power to resist the central government. The partial general and these two strategists just now will be killed if they are killed, anyway, he has a lot of subordinates.

Naturally, there are not many strategists under him, but he has never looked down on these poor sours who only know how to dance and write all day long, all of them are as timid as chickens, anyway, in his eyes, they are ants, I wish there was no one, if it weren't for Shi Siming and Tian Chenghe's repeated persuasion, he would not let the noble and solemn two guys make noise in front of him.

He often thought to himself that the only thing these guys had to do was to draft some edicts or something, and the rest was worthless.

"Your Majesty. I, Cai Xide, am one of the most trustworthy people under you, and if you don't like to hear it, you can kill me and these two people together. ”

"Say!"

An Lushan's anger at this time was much smaller, and he knew that Cai Xide was his absolutely loyal subordinate and his general, and he couldn't be compared with those ants.

"Your Majesty. What I want to say is that I have no relatives with these two people, and when Shi Siming's second brother recommended them to come, I also objected to them. But now I'm going to keep them, why? Your Majesty, it's not that I'm crazy, but because these two people can't be killed, they are highly respected and full of wealth, I won't say it, you just look at your claim to be the emperor this time, if it weren't for the careful planning of these two people, those princes and nobles, rich businessmen and magnates in Luoyang City, would they come obediently? Also, Weichen thinks that they are useful because when they raised troops in Fan Yang, eldest brother, you know, I was the one who advocated sending troops, and you still had concerns at that time, saying that you were afraid of the imperial army, but I resigned and agreed to rebel. The reason why I advise you like this is not because I know a lot, I have not actually read a book, and I only know how to beat people with fists, but because of a solemn letter, I feel that what he said is right, and this is why I urge Your Majesty to raise troops. ”

An Lushan's eyes rolled, and he looked at Cai Xide, who was kneeling on the ground, for a while: "What did he say in his letter?" ”

"I don't remember the content of his letter very clearly, it was to ask the guest of my house to read it to me, which roughly means that the Tang Dynasty is now guarding the emptiness, especially the imperial army is used to guard the Quartet, and the training is lax, Your Majesty, you have the will to rebel, you should have made plans as soon as possible, otherwise, once Li Longji is located in the crown prince, when the time comes, he may try his best to make the country, maybe he will take the eldest brother you first, and the letter also analyzed, Yang Guozhong is eyeing you, it can be described as a problem for the henchmen, if you don't send troops as soon as possible, It is possible to be plotted by these villains. In addition, there are many expositions in this letter, such as Li Longji's disregard for the government and politics, absurdity-yin-woman-sexuality, etc., all of which are extremely incisive expositions. He knew that you didn't like literati, so he sent letters among these generals close to you, in order to ask Your Majesty to start the army as soon as possible. ”

"There is such a thing, Shi Siming, have you ever received such a letter?"

Shi Siming was extremely shrewd, and when he saw that Cai Xide's words involved him, he had already knelt on the ground, and hurriedly replied at this time: "Back to the emperor, Weichen received it, otherwise, I would not recommend these two people to be your advisers in front of you and plan for you." ”

An Lushan nodded and looked up at the sky for a while: "In this way, it seems that you still have something to hide from me, who is a big brother, in private." But I don't blame you, if you mention in front of me that you listened to someone's words before making suggestions, it is inevitable that I will look down on you and say that you are rice buckets, so the reason why I rebelled is also tantamount to being moved by these two old men? ”

"Exactly. Your Majesty, now is the time to employ people, and these two people have a common enmity with Li Longji, if you are lenient and forgive their capital crimes, they will definitely be grateful to Dade and repay Your Majesty with all their hearts in the future. ”

"Okay, Siming, Sid, you two brothers get up first, go down, I know what to do."

Cai Xide was overjoyed, and Shi Siming was expressionless in gratitude.

Immediately, the two withdrew. An Lushan laughed, stretched out his hand and lifted the noble and solemn kneeling on the ground with one hand, as if carrying two chickens, and suddenly raised it above his head like a puppet: "You two old men, say, what kind of death do you want, I will fulfill you?" ”

Gao Shang's face changed: "It's enough of a thief, if you want to kill it, hurry up, don't be a mother-in-law." ”

Yan Zhuang laughed: "Your Majesty, I understand you, you said this, you want to let us go, am I right?" ”

In the sound of "haha", An Lushan used all his strength and slammed the bodies of the two into the ground, and the wind was loud.

Damn, it's over, noble thought in his heart, it seems that this beast has killed sex today.

But a miracle appeared, and I didn't see two people with blurred flesh and blood.

The bodies of the two people fell to the ground, as if they were standing on the ground, but both of them knew that they had gone through from life to death just now, and their faces were extremely pale.

"Sit down, both of you. When I don't raise my account, you are my brothers, and you don't have to be polite. ”

"Your Majesty." Although the two of them were frightened, they were resourceful people after all, so they quickly adjusted their emotions.

"Someone's coming!" An Lushan shouted.

Report. Your Majesty, please give me orders. ”

"Go. Hurry up and get two hundred taels of gold. ”

His own soldiers went quickly.

An Lushan's face was full of joy, and he narrowed a pair of eyes into a line: "Two gentlemen, I was rude just now, please forgive me?" ”

The two of them hurriedly thanked each other, and they both trembled a little when they spoke. The man in front of him is sometimes very gentle, but sometimes he is as irritable as thunder, and he can't make the slightest mistake in speaking and doing things, otherwise, he will worry about his life at any time.

Both of them are clear about the fact that in the future, in front of this guy, it is better not to speak, or to talk less, don't think about making any contributions, as long as you keep your head on your head. After all, a rescue like Cai Xide can be met but not sought. Next time, they may not have such luck.

"Two gentlemen. I only said that you have an enmity with Li Longji before, so you are determined to help me, and you don't have any great ability, but now it seems that you are really talented, compare ...... is more powerful than Zhuge Liang before. It turns out that the reason why I rebelled was also moved by the words of the two gentlemen, and I decided to reward you heavily, come, you will each have half of the two hundred taels of gold, and you will contribute well to me in the future, and I will not treat you badly. ”

"Your Majesty." The two had no choice but to accept the gold bars and not say anything about excuses.

"Okay, that's for the best. Come on, put on a banquet, I want to have a drink with you, and by the way, ask for advice on how to attack Tongguan. ”

In a moment, the wine banquet was served, the delicacies of the mountains and the sea, and the banquet of the two strategists was, of course, also the meaning of reparation.

"Two gentlemen, I'm a rough person, I don't have much culture, unlike you Han people, you have a lot of ghost ideas, I just killed one person just now, why did you come out to disturb me?"

Noble in his heart, Lao Tzu bothered you? Lao Tzu thought that you guys looked like an emperor, so he came out to persuade you not to take a detour, but now it seems that you are not this piece of material at all. Of course, when I thought about it, I didn't say it in my mouth, and when I heard it, I said: "Your Majesty, think about it, which of the hundreds of thousands of troops you brought out from the north didn't follow you to risk killing your head. If you accidentally kill a general like this, if you give him a big favor and send someone out to clarify the rumors, it will have no effect on you, but will make all the officers and soldiers feel that the emperor loves soldiers like a son and is willing to die for you; But you don't care, just kill and kill, if it spreads, all the soldiers will inevitably be in danger, I don't know when they will die in the hands of their own people, although it is a small matter, but if you don't deal with it, I'm afraid it will shake the heart of the army? ”

"Reasonable. I was just angry just now, thinking that these guys are not promising, they are all rice buckets, and they can't be attacked by fighting a small Tongguan, so I want to kill someone to deter them. ”

Yan Zhuang said solemnly: "Your Majesty, when you were a general, you could do this to deter those who disobeyed you, but now it is different, because you are the emperor, and the emperor pays attention not to kill people, but to command your subordinates, and take care of these generals under you one by one, and don't let them do anything to make trouble or neglect the king's affairs, this is enough, otherwise, you are alone, busy with so many things, can you be busy?" ”

"Not bad. I used to feel energetic, and I fought with those lang-women of the Central Plains on the kang every day, but now I can't, I gradually feel that there is not enough time, and everything is waiting for me to deal with, and these generals under my command, now that they have gold, silver and jewelry, and beautiful women, they don't work very hard. ”

"Your Majesty, when it comes to this, the old man thinks that it is very dangerous for you to ask Shi Siming, Cai Xide, these generals to capture Tongguan within three days, so the ministers risked their lives to admonish."

"Tell me, what's the danger?"

"There are two possibilities. The best ending is that His Majesty personally supervised the battle and took Tongguan in one fell swoop; But once you can't take it, these generals are your confidants, and they will naturally be loyal to you, but after all, this is a matter of losing their heads, and when they know that they will die when they come back, maybe they will ......"

Speaking of this, Yan Zhuang stopped.

An Lushan was a little panicked and stood up: "Elder Yan, look at this...... Is there any other way? ”

He knows better than anyone else that he doesn't care about killing a few people and killing a few Confucian students, but once something goes wrong with his henchmen, then he, the emperor, is equivalent to an empty shell.
