Emperor Zhenguan

Chapter 351 Refinement of each step of the plan [Thanks to Haiwang Yinzheng for the reward]

Now the Wagang faction is considered a big faction in Shence Mansion, this part is mainly composed of warriors, and there is also a civil servant Wei Zheng.

This group of people, because Qin Qiong kept a low profile, usually didn't cause trouble.However, sometimes there will be group crowding out. Although there are no obvious conflicts among the generals in the Shence Mansion, the emergence of factions cannot be ignored.

Li Zhiyun has already noticed this point.

However, he did not stop.Because looking at ancient and modern times, there is no factionless force under his command.What he has to do is balance and let them compete healthy.

But Qin Qiong is a low-key person, Li Zhiyun reuses Qin Qiong intentionally or unintentionally, and makes Wa Gangxie hug Qin Qiong.Use Qin Qiong's influence in the Wagang family to suppress these arrogant soldiers.

As for Wei Zheng, although he is also from Wagang, he has gradually followed the path of Wei Zheng in history. He likes to criticize Li Zhiyun when he has nothing to do.

In addition, Du Ruhui, Xue Shou and others have not yet formed a clique because of Li Zhiyun's side-talking. However, Li Zhiyun feels that it is only a matter of time before they get together and split up.

Generally speaking, Li Zhiyun's grasp of military power is relatively strict.Although the Wagang Department is currently being used by him, Duan Zhixuan, Xie Shufang, and Yuchi Jingde are all his loyal loyalties, so there is no need to worry about the general losing control.

Chu Suiliang and Xue Yuanjing sat together, drinking and chatting from time to time.

Xue Yuanjing seemed to have no intention of saying: "Your Highness already has the prestige of King Wu of Qin in the past, you and I still need to think about His Highness at all times, so as not to."

"In case of what?" Chu Suiliang asked.

Xue Yuanjing sighed, "You know what I mean."

Chu Suiliang stopped talking, he was a smart man, so he naturally knew what Xue Yuanjing meant.

After a long time, he opened his mouth and said: "Only try your best."

The next day, Li Zhiyun summoned Du Ruhui and Xue Shou to discuss compensation and rewards for the three armies.

In this campaign, King Qin and King Qi combined more than [-] soldiers. Li Zhiyun led an army of more than [-] people to conquer Hebei. In addition, the Prince's soldiers and horses who conquered Liang Shidu, and the soldiers who later supported Taiyuan, made up nearly [-] troops.

The King Qin army suffered the worst loss, basically [-]% of the losses, and only about [-] soldiers and horses returned to Chang'an.

It can be said that in order to resist Xieli this time, Datang has hurt his muscles and bones!
Fortunately, the troops of the Zhechongfu in the pass can quickly replenish their soldiers, so there will be no dilemma of no soldiers available.

With the help of Du Ruhui and Xue Shou, they quickly sorted out a pension and reward document, which was then signed and sealed by Li Zhiyun and presented to Emperor Chen.

"Except for the sage, you have to prepare another copy to send to the East Palace. Integrate the soldiers and horses, don't move the East Palace and King Qi's army, let them do it themselves."

"Yes." Xue Shou agreed.

Du Ruhui murmured: "Your Highness is worried about the crown prince?"

"How can we not be worried?" Li Zhiyun stood with his hands behind his back, and said: "Now I am replacing King Qin as General of the Divine Plan. If I am not careful, I am afraid that the Eastern Palace will target me."

"But the crown prince was banned by the sage from being a counselor for court affairs for one year." Xue Shou said.

Li Zhiyun shook his head and said: "Nevertheless, we can't be careless. The power of the Prince's family expanded rapidly after King Qin's death. Even the Dou family is showing favor to the Prince."

Du Ruhui said: "I don't think His Highness needs to be too nervous. As far as the Crown Prince is concerned, His Highness has never disobeyed his wishes in the past. Although there are occasional disputes, it is harmless. The important thing is what His Highness will do. As long as the Crown Prince feels His Highness has no ambitions, so there is no need to worry about the Prince.

However, what His Highness said must be taken seriously, now that King Qin is dead, the Guanlong families are bound to gradually lean towards the crown prince.Even if the sage wishes His Highness to check and balance the prince, he may not be able to stop the prince.From the point of view of the subordinates, it is useless to say more, and now it is necessary to advance the second step of the plan. "

"King Qi?" Li Zhiyun raised his eyebrows.

Du Ruhui nodded, "That's right, it's time for King Qi to play."

Xue Shou said: "In addition, His Highness can also start to win over the courtiers. The subordinates and Keming have prepared a list for His Highness to choose from."

Li Zhiyun said: "Bring it to me to have a look."

"Yes."

Xue Shou sent the list, and Li Zhiyun watched it.

After a while, Li Zhiyun said: "There is nothing wrong with the others, but Chen Shuda, is there any problem? He belongs to the late King Qin."

Du Ruhui said: "Because of this, he is the best one to win over. Chen Shuda has always suspected that King Qin's death has something to do with the Crown Prince, and he and King Qi are like fire and water, neither the Prince nor King Qi."

Hearing this, Li Zhiyun pondered for a while, and said, "This matter still requires Prime Minister Yang to come forward."

"It should be so." Du Ruhui said.

Immediately afterwards, Li Zhiyun said again: "Dou Kang is leaning towards the crown prince, Xiao Yu is the ancestor of the king of Qi, Pei Ji is the sage eagle dog, Chen Shuda can win over, and there is also Pei Ju. In addition, among the six books, Dou Jing and Li Gang cannot To win over, Minister of the Ministry of Punishment Huangfu Wuyi is like a puppet, not worth wooing, Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, warrior Xun belongs to the emperor's father, and there are only Shangshu of the Ministry of War, Zhao Cijing, and Shangshu of the Ministry of Officials, Dugu Sheng. What do you think about this?"

Xue Shou said: "Your Highness, the courtiers are either from Guanlong, Shandong, or the South. As long as you take down some people from the Zhengshitang and the Sixth Department, others will naturally follow suit. The most likely success at the moment Yes, it should be Chen Shuda and Zhao Cijing. Pei Ju is scheming, and Dugu Sheng's attitude is not clear, so it's hard to decide."

Li Zhiyun closed his eyes and pondered. Although he is gradually controlling the military power, there are not many families behind him who support him.

Jingzhao Du, half of Jingzhao Webster, Hedong Xue, and Hongnong Yang.

For these four companies, he can mobilize manpower.

Others are really hard to do.

"It's really troublesome. There are Wang Gui, Lu Chisong, and Zheng Shanguo in the East Palace. Almost half of the Shandong family belongs to the prince. This part seems to be hopeless. On Guanlong's side, the Dou family is showing favor to the prince, and the Dugu family Unclear attitude and wanting to get out of the matter, it is difficult to handle. The rest of the Yu family, Zhao family and others are at the mercy of the wind, and they are helpless."

The more he thought about it, the more Li Zhiyun's brain hurt.

Du Ruhui analyzed: "Your Highness, don't worry about the Shandong family. Now that King Qin is dead, they will only follow the prince wholeheartedly. On Guan Long's side, His Highness has never had any contact with them, so it may not be easy to win them over.

From Yichen's point of view, His Highness wants to break the situation and has to do two things. "

"Which two things?"

"First, win over Pei Ju. Second, let the king of Qi do it as soon as possible. At present, there are no Shandong families loyal to the prince. Except for the Qinghe Cui family and the Boling Cui family, only the Wenxi Pei family is left. The rest are Zhaojun Li and Longxi Li. None of them have ever interfered in the government affairs. Although the Wenxi Pei family is not well-known, their reputation in the south of the River East Road is no less than that of the Taiyuan Wang family. The northern king and Nan Pei are not empty words. If we can win over Pei Ju, great things can be expected."

Li Zhiyun said again: "Even if we can win over Pei Ju, it may not be enough."

"Hence, Your Highness needs King Qi to act as soon as possible before the crown prince is fully established. Only by getting rid of the crown prince can these aristocratic families not gather in one place. When His Highness is in power in the future, you can plan slowly.

Otherwise, when the prince's ban is lifted, it will only become more and more troublesome. "

Li Zhiyun thought about it silently, and felt that what Du Ruhui said was right.

If he doesn't get rid of the prince, he will be afraid of the prince if he wins over these families. Only by getting rid of the prince can he have a showdown and a showdown with the king of Qi.

At that time, let the courtiers choose between themselves and King Qi, and everyone knows how to choose.

"Notify Deyin." Li Zhiyun made up his mind.

"Yes." Xue Shou was a little excited, planning till now, and it was finally coming to an end.

Du Ruhui followed and said, "We must urge King Qi to do it within a year, and we must not let the crown prince get in touch with the government, otherwise the general situation will converge on the crown prince, and it will be extremely difficult at that time."

Li Zhiyun nodded and said, "I understand."

After a pause, Du Ruhui continued: "There is also the clan."

Hearing this, Li Zhiyun said: "Don't worry about the clan, King Changping, King Zhaojun, King Rencheng, King Huaiyang, they are all on good terms with this king. After the crown prince is removed, I can let them support me."

"There is also the King of Huai'an, the King of Xiangyi County." Du Ruhui reminded.

Li Zhiyun said: "There is no need to worry about this, they can't cause any trouble. At present, the king has the most soldiers and horses. With the addition of several clans, [-]% of the soldiers and horses of the Tang Dynasty are in the hands of this king."

Then, they again detailed each step of the plan.

Every aspect must be carefully considered.
