Chapter 385: Good news enters Beijing, and the Beijing division changes!
Half a month later.
Capital.
Stomp, stomp!
As the sound of galloping horses' hooves sounded from the direction of the city gate, a light horse galloped in a hurry.
As the light rider entered the city, he could only hear it shouting continuously.
"Nanzhao won a great victory, and the Duke of Jin led the army to break the Nanzhao rebels and suppress the Nanzhao rebellion."
"Nanzhao is a great victory."
As the light rider shouted, the entire street suddenly understood what was going on.
But it was the light cavalry that came from Jiannan thousands of miles in a hurry, conveying the battle report of Nanzhao.
Not long after, the battle report also reached Li Longji in the palace.
The battle report was written by Bai Yuxian himself, focusing on the rebel forces such as the Jiannan Army's great destruction of Nanzhao and the night of Wushuang to assist Queen Nanzhao to quell the rebellion of Nanzhao, and was personally promised by Queen Nanzhao that the Nanzhao Kingdom would forever respect the Tang Dynasty and submit to the Tang Dynasty.
At the end of the battle report, it was also said that in order to express her submission and respect to the Tang Dynasty, Queen Nanzhao would also pay tribute to a batch of Nanzhao beauties and gold, silver and jewelry to His Majesty the Son of Heaven of the Tang Dynasty, which would be delivered in a month.
In fact, the final tribute is from the meaning of Bai Yuxian.
Because Bai Yuxian knows Li Longji's character, for Li Longji, the problems and details of Nanzhao are not what he cares about, all he cares about is the result and face.
In this way, the result of this battle report not only succeeded in allowing Nanzhao to continue to submit to the Tang Dynasty to achieve the goal in Li Longji's heart, but also in order to express his respect for the Tang Dynasty, Nanzhao also paid tribute to a batch of Nanzhao beauties and gold, silver and jewelry to Li Longji, which can be said to be enough for Li Longji.
In this situation, Bai Yuxian was not afraid that Li Longji would be unhappy.
The facts were indeed not as expected by Bai Yuxian, when Li Longji saw the information of the war report, especially when he saw that the battle report was about to come when Nanzhao Guo would pay him a tribute of a batch of beauties and gold, silver and jewelry, Li Longji suddenly climaxed.
Unexpectedly, this time the matter of Nanzhao Kingdom, Bai Yuxian not only solved it smoothly, but also made Nanzhao Kingdom willing to continue to submit to him.
Even the Nanzhao Kingdom wanted to give him Li Longji a tribute, beautiful women, gold, silver and jewelry.
What does this mean.
This represents his Li Longji's heavenly grace, and it represents his Li Longji's divine might.
"It's good, it's worthy of being my jade immortal, and it will never disappoint me, do a good job."
Li Longji was overjoyed.
He felt that Bai Yuxian's battle report was too much to his liking, and at the same time, it was too timely.
Because of the continuous natural disasters over the years, the situation under the rule of the Tang Dynasty has been turbulent, and Li Longji is also clear in his heart.
Even he knew that if it continued like this, Datang might be in turmoil, but now that there are reports of Bai Yuxian's successive victories, and with Bai Yuxian, a general who has been invincible since his debut, Li Longji wants to see who dares to make trouble.
To put it bluntly, Bai Yuxian's battle report is not only a great victory, but also a deterrent to the world.
"Yuxian is doing a good job."
Li Longji was happy and excited in his heart, and after reading the battle report, he also hurriedly called someone to order.
"Come on, Nanzhao is victorious, publish this battle report to me, I want to see who else dares to disrespect my Datang."
"In addition, I will recruit Li Xiang and Yang Xiang, I will discuss with them, this time the Jade Immortal has made this great achievement, how to reward it."
"No."
When Gao Lishi heard this, he hurriedly retreated and made arrangements.
At this time, it has been more than two months since Bai Yuxian went to Jiannan to take up the post of Jiedu envoy.
In more than two months, the changes in the court of the Beijing division are not small, and many things have happened, including two major events.
First of all, the first major event is that the long-vacant position of the East Palace of the Tang Dynasty finally ushered in the master again, Li Longji's sixth son, Zhen Wang Li Wang, was established by Li Longji as the new prince of the Tang Dynasty, and also served as the commander of the Tiance Army after Bai Yuxian stepped down.
Speaking of which, this is already the third prince of the Tang Dynasty during Li Longji's reign, and the first two princes are dead.
Then the second major event was that after the New Year, Prime Minister Li Linfu deliberately resigned and retired because of old age and physical discomfort, and began to ask Li Longji, the son of heaven, to resign, and for this reason, he also recommended Yang Guozhong to Li Longji to take over.
After some thought, Li Longji also agreed to this matter, but did not agree to Li Linfu's immediate abdication, but asked Li Linfu to completely and smoothly hand over all government affairs to Yang Guozhong before retiring.
So now Li Linfu has begun to prepare to abdicate and is in a state of semi-retirement, while Yang Guozhong has begun to take over, and now his official position has been promoted to the left minister of the Tang Dynasty, and his position in the court is second only to Li Linfu.
Now the government affairs in the Tang Dynasty have begun to change from the original Li Linfu to Li Linfu and Yang Guozhong at the same time.
——
"See Your Majesty."
Not much.
Li Linfu and Yang Guozhong came to Li Longji.
Li Linfu is thin, his hair is gray, and his old face is full of twilight, giving people a feeling of drooping old age.
Yang Guozhong was full of red light and energetic, and the appearance of the two looked almost in stark contrast.
Seeing this, Li Longji couldn't help but think in his heart.
It seems that Li Linfu is indeed old, and it is indeed time to abdicate, and Yang Guozhong is also very good from the performance of this period of time, he is also loyal to himself and is the brother of the concubine, when he can be trusted, he is a suitable person to replace Li Linfu.
In fact, Li Longji was a little hesitant about Li Linfu's abdication.
Because Li Linfu is so easy to use, although the outside world has been saying that Li Linfu is a traitor over the years.
But whether Li Linfu is a traitor or not, only Li Longji, the person who uses it, has the most right to speak.
Anyway, in Li Longji's opinion, Li Linfu is definitely a capable minister, and he is the kind with top ability, he can handle anything if he is handed over, and it is the kind that you can handle well, which is simply worry-free and easy to use.
Therefore, Li Linfu wanted to abdicate, the original Li Longji was a little reluctant, and Yang Guozhong's specific ability was not clear.
But through this period of time, his mind slowly began to change.
First of all, judging from Li Linfu's appearance, Li Linfu is indeed old, and Yang Guozhong is also very good from the perspective of his replacement performance during this time, and like Li Linfu, he is also obedient and easy to use.
At this moment, Li Longji felt that Yang Guozhong might indeed be able to replace Li Linfu.
But Li Longji didn't know.
Yang Guozhong may have learned Li Linfu's ten-out of ten in terms of flattery and figuring out the emperor's heart, but in terms of real political ability, it is not even enough to beat the horse.
Li Linfu can figure out the emperor's heart and has enough political ability, but Yang Guozhong can't, he only learned to figure out the emperor's heart, but in terms of real political ability, it is mediocre.
In fact, Li Linfu also discovered this through his relationship with Yang Guozhong during this time.
However, Li Linfu did not tell Li Longji what he meant, because if he told Li Longji about this, how could he smoothly withdraw and abdicate.
Originally, when he and Bai Yuxian reached an agreement to cooperate in private, Li Linfu just wanted to leave a way back for his heir's family, because he felt that it was difficult for him to get out.
But this time of time comes in the case.
Li Linfu suddenly found that he seemed to have a chance to abdicate.
That is to let Yang Guozhong take over his position smoothly, and then resign directly to return to his hometown.
As long as he can return to his hometown with Li Longji's approval after resigning, then he can directly withdraw and run away, and he has thought about the place where he will run, that is, Jiannan.
Because of some thoughts about Bai Yuxian, Li Linfu has also figured it out.
Bai Yuxian definitely has the intention of replacing Li Tang, and if there is a big chaos today, there will be this opportunity.
Under such circumstances, Li Linfu felt that if he directly ran over to help Bai Yuxian in private, Bai Yuxian would definitely be willing.
And as long as he ran to Bai Yuxian's side, he didn't have to worry about anything anymore.
Run!
This is Li Linfu's current thoughts.
And Yang Guozhong is his pick-up man, if there is a thunderstorm in the future, it will definitely be Yang Guozhong's back.
Yang Guozhong never thought that he had been calculated from beginning to end, and at this moment, he was thinking about how to replace Li Linfu as soon as possible, so as to become the new prime minister of the Tang Dynasty, one person under ten thousand people.
"This Nanzhao victory, Yuxian has made this great contribution to my Tang Dynasty, and the two Aiqing feel that I should be rewarded this time."
Li Longji looked at Li Linfu and Yang Guozhong and asked.
"The pillar of the Principality of the Jin Kingdom, this time he has made this great contribution, and he must be rewarded, but now the Duke of Jin has become the Duke of the Kingdom and the envoy of the two towns, if he continues to increase the number of officials and enter the knighthood, I am afraid that it will not be good to be sealed again, and the credit this time is also a little insufficient."
Yang Guozhong opened his mouth when he heard this, now Bai Yuxian is already a prince of the country and a two-person festival envoy, if Bai Yuxian is added to the official rank, he will basically only be crowned king.
But the king is not trivial, the entire Tang Dynasty has not had a king with a different surname for many years, and if he is crowned a king, this time it is not enough to just rely on the credit of suppressing the Nanzhao rebellion.
But if it is not rewarded, it will definitely not be appropriate, although Bai Yuxian's credit this time is not enough, it is definitely not small.
Hearing Yang Guozhong's words, Li Longji also nodded.
Yang Guozhong's thoughts coincide with him, the current status of Bai Yuxian is too high, and it is not easy to be rewarded again.
"What does Lee Xiang think?"
Li Longji looked at Li Linfu again.
Li Linfu immediately gave up his hand and suggested.
"According to the minister's opinion, since it is not good for the Duke of Jin to be rewarded this time, it is better for His Majesty to focus on the reward in the Jin State Mansion, and you can focus on rewarding the mother, wife and other family members of the Duke of Jin.
Li Longji thought about it for a while and thought it was good, and immediately proposed.
"In this way, then this time the merit of the Jade Immortal, on the side of the Jin State Mansion, I will crown the Jade Immortal's mother Zhen as the wife of the country, and his wife will also be promoted to the next level, and if the Jade Immortal is in charge, I will temporarily crown him as the prince and the prince, and enjoy a product."
"Your Majesty Shengming!"
Li Linfu and Yang Guozhong immediately surrendered their hands and naturally would not object.
And don't look at Li Longji, this reward seems to be quite a lot, and the name is bigger than the other, and he is both the wife of the country and the prince.
But in reality, these are all false positions.
But the name of the name is really beautiful.
