Emperor Zhenguan

Chapter 129 The Undoubted Candidate

Things have developed to the present, if Liu Wenjing still can't understand, he can basically tell his old age and return to his hometown to raise pigs.

After the prince admitted his mistake, Liu Wenjing immediately understood that what the saint wanted was not for them to find a way to rescue Shangzhou, but for them to take the blame!
Li Jiancheng also doesn't want to take the blame, who wants to damage his reputation?
But if he doesn't take the blame today, the matter won't end.

Li Yuan's attitude is very obvious. When Chen Shuda said that the responsibility lies with King Lujiang, he immediately agreed. This shows that he didn't want to shift the responsibility for Nanyang's defeat to King Changping, but found Li Yuan, the backer.

In the same way, who recommended Li Yuan?

Prince!

Therefore, Li Jiancheng is very clear that if he does not take the blame, this matter may not be good.

It's not easy to be a prince. I thought he was devoted to serving the country at the beginning, but he didn't expect to end up like this in the end.

awful.

If someone is responsible, then the matter can continue to be discussed. Lao Li then said: "The support of King Lujiang is not good, and the crime will be discussed later. Now let's think about how to rescue King Changping."

How to save?
It is nothing more than sending troops to support.

Pei Ji had already said this point just now, but he didn't mind repeating it again.

"Your Majesty, I think that we should send troops to support. However, the King of Lujiang recommended by Liu Xiang is useless, and I am afraid that he cannot be the rescue commander. Please Your Majesty choose another general to go to Shangzhou."

At this moment, Pei Ji still felt sick to Liu Wenjing.

In the past, Liu Wenjing would definitely have an argument with Pei Ji, but now, Liu Wenjing dare not speak anymore.Because today, both he and the crown prince are regarded as blamed by the emperor.

"Who do you think can be the rescue coach?" Li Yuan asked.

This question was asked, and everyone present basically knew that Lao Li's heart must be biased towards the clan generals leading the army.

But the problem is that there are not many clan generals still in Chang'an.

Qin Wang Li Shimin, there is no doubt that if this person is in Chang'an, he must go, but he is currently working in Xiliang and is not free.

In fact, in the foreign wars in the early Tang Dynasty, Li Shimin was a bit like Datang's firefighting team, Dinghaishenzhen.

Beating Xue Ju was because Xue Ju took the initiative to commit the crime.Hit Liu Wuzhou, that's because Fengchu Li Yuanji can't beat Turkic son Liu Wuzhou.Hitting Wang Shichong was because it had been four years of Wude at that time. Li Yuan looked around the waste wood and found that the second son was still easy to use.

There is no doubt that Li Shimin is the God of War in Datang.

But God of War doesn't know how to clone, especially now that God of War is not God of War, so everyone naturally ruled out Li Shimin.

Exclude Li Shimin, and naturally think of Li Yuanji.

However, Li Yuanji was guarding Bingzhou to defend against Liu Wuzhou.Therefore, ruled out again.

Immediately afterwards, everyone thought of Chu Wang Li Zhiyun.

You have to say, there are still Li Shentong, Li Xiaoji and other clans, why would you think of a sixteen-year-old boy.

The reason is simple, Lao Li prefers the clan to lead the army.

But there is also a gap in this clan.

Qin Wang, Qi Wang, Chu Wang, as the emperor's own sons, the priority of leading the army is obviously higher than others.

When Li Yuan sent Li Shuliang to exterminate Zhu Can, it was because Li Shuliang fought a beautiful battle before.Li Yuan felt that Li Shuliang was good and could be of great use, and Li Zhiyun was young, so Lao Li was a little hesitant.

So, Li Shuliang finally went.

Think about it, Li Yuanji guarded Taiyuan, but Li Yuan sent Dou Dan, Xia Houduan and others to assist.Although he believed in his sons, he was actually ambiguous about their abilities.

In the final analysis, Li Yuan just believed that his son would not betray him.

What he wants is for his sons to control the military power, not for his sons to help him win the battle.Of course, if his sons are as fierce as Qin Wang, he will wake up laughing when he sleeps.

What he advocated has always been "the sage is in office, the capable is in office".Use the sons to control the military power, and use outsiders to win the battle.

Well, to put it simply, use someone else to work for your son.And his son is working for himself, rounding up, it means that everyone is working for him, the emperor.

perfect.

Pei Ji understood Li Yuan's mind, so he said: "Your Majesty, I think that the King of Chu is worthy of a great position."

Li Yuan gave Pei Ji a look of 'you are very smart'.

Pei Ji frowned, indicating that he received it.

There is no way, Li Yuan and Pei Ji are really good brothers for life, if Li Yuan farts, Pei Ji will know what Lao Li ate last night.

The caring little padded jacket, Pei Ji, is no joke.

It is not unreasonable to say that there are three irons in life.

Going through the same window together represents youth.Carrying guns together, that represents a life-long friendship.Going to Pingkangfang together means seeing each other honestly.

The friendship between men can achieve this step, it is really very iron.

Besides, Pei Ji is a smart person.

The King of Chu is currently the most dazzling existence among the generals of the Great Tang Clan. Although there is a King of Qin who shines as bright as a little sun on him, the King of Chu himself is not bad.

Starting from the rise of troops in Jinyang, the king of Chu offered fire oil to defeat Song Laosheng, restrained and captured Qu Tutong alive and took Hedong.Then to stabilize food prices in Chang'an.He offered fried noodles and baked steamed buns as rations for the army. Later, he led his army to pacify the southern mountain road and followed Li Shuliang to break through the Western Qin Dynasty.

One pile, one piece, without Fengchu Li Yuanjiqiang?
The most suitable candidate is Li Zhiyun, there is no doubt about it.Whether it is from the perspective of the clan or from the perspective of record, King Chu is the most suitable.

Of course, it is useless to insist on talking about age.

Because King Qin is not very old now, and King Qi is even younger.In the impression of the ancients, getting married and having children is an adult.

Hearing that Pei Ji had nominated the king of Chu, Li Jiancheng pursed his lips and did not speak.In fact, he also has a candidate in his heart, but he dare not say it again.One is that he is worried that he will recommend another color pen this time, and the other is that if he denies that King Chu sent troops, then his intentions against King Chu will be too obvious.

Before that, he took away the Yunyang army, which made people suspect that he was dealing with the king of Chu.If you strongly oppose the King of Chu now, you will almost engrave 'I hate the King of Chu' on your face.

He can still figure out this kind of thing.

What's more, he didn't intend to completely push the King of Chu away.Therefore, he remained silent.

Not to mention Liu Wenjing, he hasn't recovered from the confrontation just now, so naturally he won't continue to sing against Pei Ji.

As for Chen Shuda, what he wanted was that the prince should not continue to intervene in the army, and his goal has been achieved.

The rest of Dou Wei, Dou Kang, Xiao Yu, they are completely outsiders, never thought of meddling in this matter.

Moreover, everyone knows that Lao Li prefers his son to lead the army, and if he opposes it at this time, it is tantamount to opposing Lao Li.

Of course, Dou Wei was also thinking in his heart, if the king of Chu failed in this expedition, he might be able to make a move and recommend one or two people from the Dou family to lead the army.

In short, everyone in Zhengshitang has their own thoughts.

Seeing that no one objected, Lao Li took them as their acquiescence, and asked, "Where is King Chu now?"

Xiao Yu said: "According to the news from the Ministry of War, the king of Chu has finished sending the second batch of grain and grass to Xiangzhou and is on his way back. Now, we should be in Hedong."

"Let the King of Chu return to Chang'an quickly."

"Yes."

Chen Shuda asked: "Your Majesty, if the King of Chu supports Nanyang, who will be in charge of escorting the third batch of grain and grass to Xiangzhou?"

Li Yuan thought for a while and said, "Let King Yong'an go."

Hearing this, everyone showed a 'really so' look in their eyes.

Li Xiaoji, the king of Yongan, used to be the governor of Shanzhou, but not long ago, Wang Shichong's small army invaded Shanzhou, Li Xiaoji was unable to resist, and fled back to Chang'an after a disastrous defeat.Therefore, he was removed from office.

Now that Li Yuan has reactivated Li Xiaoji, it is clear that he wants to give Li Xiaoji a chance to make contributions so that he can be reused again.

Li Yuan attaches great importance to the clan, the intention is almost written on his face, without concealment.

"Your Majesty Shengming."

In this way, the servant went to Hedong with the imperial decree and recalled Li Zhiyun.
