Chapter 1270 Killing

These seven conditions, the loss of hundreds of thousands of people, made Li Longji feel a little unhappy. In addition, he was unable to obtain artillery technology immediately, which made him feel regretful. In fact, the other conditions were relatively relaxed.

However, it is much less difficult than Li Longji expected.

He immediately said, "I believe my father and aunt will agree."

"I know they must agree, but I'm not at ease without written things." Wang Hua said bluntly.

If it is simple, ordinary people are more simple. As for credit, for senior officials, the more they reach the top part of the pyramid, the more credit becomes straw paper, and they are ready to use it to wipe their butts at any time.

Li Longji stood up and said, "I'll go back now."

"Wait," Wang Hua pulled him down and said, "There is one thing that has not been told to you. When you go back, if there is no other mistake, the late emperor has entered the tomb. This time you come to Lingzhou and have no hidden decoration. I believe that some people in the court have received the news. When you go back, it may be the day when Empress Dowager Wei takes action against you. Therefore, we will work together with two-pronged approaches. I will take 1,500 people to Chang'an, and some artillery. I will be waiting for your news in Linzhou. If your father and Princess Taiping agree, I will go to the capital in person. However, your power in the Yulin Army is too weak, and it is not enough to rely on my side alone. But I cannot bring too many people, otherwise I will be discovered. Therefore, after you go back, I will immediately bribe some of my confidants in the Yulin Army and cooperate inside and outside. In addition, I and my subordinates will also need your help and cooperation."

Time is a little tight, but fortunately, because Shangguan Xiaowan's persuasion, Wei moved the political center from Luoyang to Chang'an, which was not very far from Linzhou, which saved a lot of trouble and a lot of time.

"This is better," Li Longji stood up again, suddenly thought of something, and he asked hesitantly: "Then what should I do if the crown prince?"

The 23 states will be handed over at the end of the year, and the soldiers will also hand over them. The priest will be moved next year and the tumor will be removed. However, Li Chongjun is still a tumor in the northwest. After all, he was the orthodox crown prince before. Wang Hua also created great momentum for him.

"You don't have to worry about this. I will take him to Oceania again at that time. I believe you won't have murderous intentions, right?"

"No," Li Longji smiled awkwardly.

In fact, in his heart, he thought that it would be better to kill Li Chongjun and end it all.

Wang Huada looked at him meaningfully: "Criminal, although the royal family is the most ruthless, I still hope you have a little human touch. Since I have helped you, the crown prince will never do anything that hinders you. In Oceania, let him raise his old age."

In fact, Wang Hua also hated Li Chongjun in his heart, but he could not hand him over. Otherwise, people would mock him, defect to Li Dan and his son, and immediately handed over Li Chongjun's contributions, and there was no need to bear this reputation. Besides, Li Chongjun was in his own hands, and Li Longji was always a traitor. So when he made up his own ideas in the future, he had to be cautious.

Not to mention wisdom, if you fight in battle, you may not have so many talents, and you will have even fewer talents in the world. However, when it comes to power and tricks, there are many talents in the court, and your qualifications can only be considered to be at the middle level in the middle.

This is leaving a way out.

Wang Hua said again: "Also, now I will help you, and outsiders do not know about this. In addition, Tubo is pressing, so many people think that I will attack Zhu Wei under the banner of the crown prince. If I turn the army east again, it will confuse many people. This has created conditions for me to lead the soldiers to sneak into Chang'an."

In fact, there is no need for so many people to rebel. As long as the Yulin Army in the palace is bribed 500 to 1,000 people, the plan can be decided. However, because of Wang Hua's advice, Princess Taiping and Li Dan did not have many confidants in the Yulin Army. They ran from Luoyang to Chang'an, so there were even fewer confidants.

At the same time, to prevent Li Dan and his son, as well as the northwest, many troops were stationed near Chang'an. Many of these troops were led by Wei Party generals.

So Wang Hua brought 1,500 people. If the power of Li Dan and his son and Princess Taiping was added, the Yulin Army they bought and brought some artillery to immediately calm the situation in the capital. Otherwise, it would change once it was dragged down.

In order to cooperate, Wang Hua's army headed eastward, but in fact it was not an attack. Just do it and attract the troops near Chang'an to the west. Only by cooperating inside can it be completed smoothly.

He went to Chang'an by himself because he was afraid that he would accidentally hurt Li Guer and his son and Shangguan Xiaowan during the mutiny. These two people seemed to be killed in history. Especially Shangguan Xiaowan, because of her disguise, she has become the number one confidant of Wei in recent years.

Her family also did many things that were harmful to nature. During the mutiny, Shangguan Xiaowan showed Li Longji the cursive script of the will he issued at that time. The cursive script was the same as this time, and the prime minister Wang assisted the government. Li Longji refused to listen and was killed by his subordinates.

If he didn't go to Chang'an in person, Li Longji would also kill Shangguan Xiaowan. There was also Li Guer. For his sister and to cut off Wei's bloodline, Li Longji might not have the courage. At worst, he would be punished by himself afterwards.

But Li Longji's thoughts on Wang Hua cannot be guessed completely.

He even didn't know why Wang Hua changed his attitude and supported him. He thought it was this time that he brought his wife and Wu Chongning over and repeatedly persuaded Wang Hua's harem to change Wang Hua's attitude. Of course, at this time he did not think about whether he would kill Shangguan Xiaowan and Li Guer in the future.

However, when Wang Hua personally led 1,500 soldiers and artillery to Chang'an, he became more confident and gave a big gift and immediately left the northwest.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

March is coming, and the best season of the year is also coming to Chang'an.

The peach blossoms in Qujiang Pool are blooming like fire and flowing clouds all over the sky. There are also a group of upstart students who passed the imperial examination and are traveling to Qujiang Pool to praise their knowledge.

In order to embellish the peace, the Jinshi class did not stop this year. On the contrary, 51 Jinshi were recruited, and the number was rare in previous years. Because miscellaneous studies began to be gradually valued, another 56 people were recruited in other subjects this year.

In Chang'an City, except for the increase in the number of soldiers stationed, the rest remained the same.

But in this prosperous area, murderous intent gradually emerged.

At first, Wei was busy burying Li Xian. Although she poisoned Li Xian with her own hands, this time she buried her husband in an extremely glorious way.

Just as Li Longji was thinking about Wang Hua's answer in Lingzhou and Wang advised Wang Han and Li Chiying, the Tubo envoy arrived in Chang'an and met Wei.

If negotiations with Wang Hua gave something substantial, the Tubo people were foolish when negotiating with Wei.

The envoy first took out a territory map. On this territory map, Tubo clearly marked the boundary between Tubo and the Tang Dynasty with Jishishan and Wuhai City as the line. These two places were a bit of arguing, and after this territory map was decided, it became a legal principle.

But this is a virtual thing.

In this era, who cares about the territory, expands if you have the ability, and loses if you don’t have the ability. For example, in the border areas of the Tang Dynasty, in order to prevent the enemy from disturbing the border, many places emptied the people and used soldiers to guard the land instead. Or used Hu people to block the border and used Hu to fight against Hu.

After giving benefits, he said, "Empress Dowager, although I am in Tubo, I have heard of many things in the Tang Dynasty. We Tubo have come up with an idea for your country."

As he said that, he pointed to Dafeichuan and said, "First of all, I came to your country this time to pay tribute to you. Then your country can transfer Guo Yuanzhen from Dafeichuan. Anyway, Dafeichuan is a Tuyuhun person. They rebel and surrender at times, and are not loyal to your country to Tubo. As long as your country transfers Guo Yuanzhen back to Dafeichuan, we will immediately send troops to Dafeichuan and punish the Tuyuhun people. As long as we can send troops to Dafeichuan, we can restrain the troops of the Blood Camp. Without the danger of the Blood Camp, the Empress Dowager can stabilize the court within one year. We will also have a Qingming and healthy Tang Dynasty prosperous era."

The Tubo people surrendered to the Tang Dynasty, and this would be a stimulant to the newly established court of Wei.

Moreover, the Tubo people sent troops to Dafeichuan, which could indeed restrain the blood camp's troops.

However, even Wei Shi, she did not get confused. The so-called surrender and the so-called territory map were just empty words. Once the court recalled Guo Yuanzhen and retreated, the Tubo people would occupy Dafeichuan again, most of them would be meat buns to beat dogs, and they would go but not return.

But it made her very moved. As for whether Tuyuhun was occupied by the Tubo people, can she control it? Not to mention Tuyuhun, but the twenty-three northwest states, what is the difference between now and independence?

Besides, they are still from Tuyuhun.

If the blood camp can be restrained, it would be the best. Moreover, if the Tubo people surrender, it would become an internal conflict, which seemed to be explained by the people.

But she was still in trouble, just whether Guo Yuanzhen could recruit him back.

This Guo Yuanzhen is also a disobedient guy.

Looking at her face, the Tubo envoy said again: "Empress Dowager, do you think General Guo is a little disobedient?"

This sentence made Wei a little angry. Isn’t this a slap in the face? The pot doesn’t open and the pot is uncovered.

But there is no way, and it is difficult to discuss below. The Tubo envoy said again: "It's still not difficult. Guo Yuanzhen is holding troops to keep his kindness. If the Southern Wangmen, Jinchimen, Puzimen, and Mangmen rebelled and invaded Jiannan, what would happen?"

He refers to the Six Zhaos in the South, which were sandwiched between the Tubo people and the Tang Dynasty, and sometimes fell eastward and sometimes went westward. However, because Tubo was powerful in the past few years, it was mostly ambiguous with Tubo, and sometimes it also invaded the borders of Jiannan, and even colluded with the southern tribes in Jiannan, and sometimes rebelled and surrendered. However, these remote places were not the center of the Tang Dynasty, and were mainly pacified.

But after years of development, the Six Divines in the South gradually developed ambitions.

Wei didn't care much about the distant borders, even if it was lost and was a poor area, and the court might even reduce pressure.

But this sentence made Wei's eyes lit up.

If these tribes invade the border and support them with the influence of the Tubo people, it is not impossible to achieve. Then using this reason to transfer Guo Yuanzhen to Jiannan as the chief executive can still allow Guo Yuanzhen to protect himself, and there is also an excuse.

However, Wei was not able to see clearly the importance and interests of it, and she had also been deceived by Turks and Tubos, so she had to discuss with her confidants.

So he spoke, "Now the First Emperor enters the tomb, this is the primary event. I will give you a reply in a few days."

The Tubo envoy knew that Wei had actually agreed to Qifen in his heart, and happily retreated.

Wei has been discussing with his confidants these days. However, as Shangguan Wan'er thought, there are many confidants, corrupt officials, flatterers, but there are few ministers who are capable of doing practical things.

Although it seems that there are many "benefits", the Turks and Tubo bite each time, and they are afraid of biting, and they don't know what to do.

This matter continued, but Wei heard another news.

This time, Li Longji made a desperate attempt and appeared in Lingzhou many times. Some people also heard the sound of the wind.

When Li Xian entered the tomb, Ji Chune, Wu Yanxiu, Zhao Luwen, Ye Jingneng and Zhu Wei's family wrote many letters to Wei's family to follow Wu Zetian's convention and be called emperor.

Wei was very excited. If it weren't for the Northwest Blood Camp, most of the North-South Imperial Guards that guarded the Palace City and the three provinces and six ministries with important status would be controlled by the Wei family's children.

It was not difficult for her to proclaim herself emperor. But the blood camp, she looked northwest and bit her teeth with hatred.

If it was a blood camp, it would be better, and there was mainly Li Chongjun.

Seeing that Wei was hesitant, Wei Wen was a little anxious. He instructed Dou Congyi to secretly write a letter and use prophecy to explain that Wei should take over the Tang Dynasty and rule the world. He even personally told Wei that King Wen Li Chongmao should be eliminated. As long as Li Chongmao died, he could immediately support Li Guer as the imperial daughter in exchange for Wang Hua's support, and then Wei would become the emperor.

Wei shook his head and said, "You can't hurry."

Now that her daughter's attitude has begun to ease, this is a good sign, but her attitude is still lukewarm. She must wait until all the procedures for entering the tomb are over. Li Guer's attitude improves and she will give her another enlightenment, and then ask her to write a letter to comfort Wang Hua, and then wait until Wang Hua "opens" it, it is best to hand over Li Chongjun.

That big thing can be settled.

She also said: "The northwest has no intention of returning home, so the lonely family is not very relieved. Moreover, there are the prime minister and Princess Taiping in the court. Even if the lonely family rule the world, these two people will be tyrants from it."

When talking about Li Dan, Wu Yanxiu suddenly said, "Empress Dowager, I have something to report to you."

"Please report."

"I heard that the King of Linzi appeared in Lingzhou, but because the journey was long, this matter had not been verified." He was the male favorite of Wei, otherwise it would be difficult to say it without evidence. This matter is not a joke, it can be big or small.

When Wei heard this, he suddenly felt creepy.

The other ministers were also silent. Li Dan was deeply envious and Princess Taiping's decisive methods. Although these two people lost their power, they still made these people feel very scared.

And these people vaguely smelled an uneasy smell in this matter.

Wei was silent for a while and asked, "Take it serious?"

Wu Yanxiu replied: "I just heard the news. I don't know whether it is true or not. But according to the itinerary, if the news is true, the King of Linzi is rushing back and has not arrived in the capital yet."

Wei shouted: "Send someone to investigate."

Countless gangs sent out and stared at the various roads from Lingzhou to Chang'an. At this time, Li Longji was rushing back. Although he did a secret job when he returned. In order to win the faith of Wang Hua, he left his wife and Wu Chongning in Lingzhou.

This is equivalent to a hostage flavor. After all, Wang Hua will personally lead 1,500 people to sneak into Chang'an. What if Li Dan suddenly turns against each other after the matter is done? 1,500 people may not be safe.

Wang Hua didn't say it, he just smiled.

Before he actually handed over the Northwest, even if he entered Chang'an alone, Li Dan and his son might not dare to keep him.
