Emperor Zhenguan

Chapter 364 Donggong Responds to King Chu’s Conspiracy
East Palace.

Li Jiancheng stood with his hands behind his back, looking out the window leisurely.He had already learned the news that Wen Daya had been canonized as the Chief History of the Prince of Chu.

Say no to worry, it's a lie.After all, Wen Daya used to belong to the King of Qin, and Wang Gui and others were worried that Wen Daya's existence would affect the King of Chu, and even change King Chu's mind, making the King of Chu and the East Palace against each other.

"What do you think?"

Behind him, Wang Gui, Zheng Shanguo, Wei Ting, Lu Chisong and others sat quietly.

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, and Wang Gui said first: "Wen Daya used to sit in Luoyang for the King of Qin, and let him teach the King of Chu, I'm afraid it will cause trouble for His Highness. Moreover, I think it is very likely that His Majesty is supporting the King of Chu."

Speaking of this, Li Jiancheng suddenly sneered and said, "Just like him supporting King Qin?"

Wei Ting nodded and said: "That's right, looking at it now, His Majesty has this plan, and His Highness needs to take precautions as soon as possible."

Zheng Shanguo said: "I'm also very curious about King Chu's attitude. If King Chu really doesn't want to be big, why didn't he come and explain to His Highness?"

This was also one of the reasons for Li Jiancheng's displeasure. In his opinion, if the King of Chu really had no intention of going against him, he should report this kind of thing to him instead of pretending nothing happened.

Lu Chisong thought: "Your Highness, according to my opinion, it's better to knock the mountain to shake the tiger."

"Oh, please try." Li Jiancheng looked at Lu Chisong.

He said: "I heard that Wen Daya's brother is under Luo Yi's tent in Youzhou. Previously, when the King of Chu conquered Hebei, Luo Yi refused to support himself. We might as well let the sage issue an edict to call Wen Yanbo back to Beijing."

Wang Gui frowned and said: "Mr. Lu, this plan is not appropriate. Luo Yi supported the army and refused to cooperate with the King of Chu to send troops to the Turks. If Wen Yanbo was recalled at this time, Luo Yi must have doubts. If he murdered Wen Yanbo, Aren't we enemies of life and death with Wen Daya for no reason?"

"Then don't you think it's not now?" Lu Chisong asked back, "Wen Daya returned to Beijing from Luoyang after the abolition of Daxing Terrace on Shandong Road, and has never come to pay homage to His Highness. From this, we can see that he has other intentions, or If you haven't forgotten the old master, you can't use him for help.

In addition, the sage intends to support the king of Chu, and Wen Daya is an introduction.In my opinion, instead of waiting for the king of Chu to express his position, we should knock the mountains and shake the tiger, and use Wen Yanbo to tell the king of Chu that it is best not to have thoughts that we shouldn't have.At the same time, this can also warn Wen Daya to be more honest.

Regarding whether Luo Yi will kill Wen Yanbo, I don't think you need to worry.This year Youzhou suffered from famine and food shortage, and was attacked by Turks and Gao Kaidao again. Luo Yi is now in a state of desperation, and dare not offend our court at all.Once the imperial decree arrives in Youzhou, he will only obediently send the gifts out of Youzhou. "

Wei Ting was puzzled and said, "If Luo Yi doesn't kill Wen Yanbo, how can there be such a theory?"

Lu Chisong said: "With Wen Daya's intelligence, how could he not have thought of the current situation in Youzhou? Do you think he will be afraid of Luo Yi killing his brother after he knows the news?
This time, no matter whether Luo Yi kills Wen Yanbo or not, Wen Daya will definitely be frightened. "

Wang Gui still felt that something was wrong and said, "I think it's better for us to talk to Wen Daya first."

"Speak?" Zheng Shanguo sneered, "Just like you persuaded Pei Ju before?"

Wang Gui broke the defense, blushed, and snorted coldly.

Pei Ju has not returned to the East Palace until now, which makes the prince very upset.

Lu Chisong pointed out: "Although I know that you are all from Bingzhou, and even Wen Daya is from Wenjiabao, Qixian County, Taiyuan, and you are from the same hometown, but there are some things that cannot be explained without just a little fellowship. of."

Wang Gui narrowed his eyes and clenched his hands hidden in the sleeve robe slightly.

At this moment, Li Jiancheng said, "Just do what Lu Gong wants."

"Yes."

The next day, Lu Chisong reported to the emperor that Wen Yanbo in Taiyuan was a great talent and should not be used as an enemy. He should be called back to Beijing in time to serve the Tang Dynasty.In addition, Lu Chisong said inside and out that once Luo Yi was attacked in the future, Wen Yanbo might become an uncertain factor, and he mentioned Wen Daya by the way.

Suspicious Li Yuan thought about it carefully and felt that there was nothing wrong with it. He was indeed very unhappy with Luo Yi now, and even more unhappy with his self-reliance. If Luo Yi is not weakened now, when will it be weakened.

Therefore, Li Yuan issued an imperial edict ordering Wen Yanbo to enter Beijing as an official.

Now that Luo Yi is nominally a courtier of Datang, Li Yuan can naturally recall Wen Yanbo legally.

Wen Fu.

"What a disaster!" Wen Daya sighed.

At this time, the imperial court ordered Wen Yanbo to be recalled, which was equivalent to putting Wen Yanbo on the fire, and it was easy to give Luo Yi an illusion.

The imperial court was dissatisfied with him and wanted to attack him.

In this way, Wen Yanbo is in danger.

Wen Daya's eldest son Wen Wuyin asked: "My lord, isn't it a good thing that uncle can return to Chang'an?"

"It's a good thing, but it's not a good thing to come back now." Wen Daya explained: "This year when the King of Chu conquered Hebei, Luo Yi did not cooperate with the King of Chu to attack the Turks, which has made His Majesty dissatisfied. If he recalls Dalin at this time, it will make Luo Yi suspicious." The imperial court is about to send troops against him. Therefore, Dalin will be in some danger when he returns."

"This..." Wen Wuyin was still immature, and after his father explained it, he figured out the key point, "My lord, what should we do?"

Hearing this, Wen Daya walked back and forth in the hall, sighing from time to time, "Your Majesty has issued an edict, and there is no way to recover."

In fact, he understood that this was said by Lu Chisong, but it was equivalent to the prince's instruction.He knew that there would be a day when he was named the chief minister of Chu Wangfu, and the East Palace responded immediately.

This is beating him!

At this time, the servant came to report, and the king of Chu paid a visit.

Wen Wuyin asked in confusion: "What is the king of Chu doing here?"

Wen Daya was quick-witted, and his intuition told him that the King Chu's visit this time must have something to do with Wen Yanbo's affairs.

"Quick, follow me to welcome the King of Chu."

"Yes."

study.

Li Zhiyun was in the guest seat, and said with a smile: "It's ashamed to say, since Chang Shi returned to Beijing, Zhiyun has never visited in person."

"His Royal Highness is busy with government affairs, and I understand that His Highness does not need to take it to heart."

Seeing that Wen Daya's face was a bit scorched, Li Zhiyun didn't procrastinate, and said directly: "The reason why I came to visit Chang Shi this time is mainly because the sage ordered Wen Yanbo to return to Beijing."

really!

Wen Daya asked cautiously: "I don't know what your Highness thinks?"

"My father's decision surprised me. The court and Youzhou are now in a delicate balance. When I was still in Hebei, I knew Luo Yi was rebellious. Therefore, I didn't send troops to cooperate with me in attacking the Turks. It's a matter of patience and appeasement. Recalling Wen Yanbo at this time will put a lot of pressure on Luo Yi, and he will even suspect that the imperial court is about to do something to him."

Wen Daya pursed her lips and said: "Your Highness's words are correct, and I have also thought of this."

"However, Chang Shi doesn't have to worry about Wen Yanbo's safety."

"Oh, what does Your Highness mean?" Wen Daya asked hastily.

Li Zhiyun explained: "Previously, this king has reached a consensus with his father, the court urgently needs to recuperate, and will not send troops to conquer disobedient officials for the time being. However, Gao Kaidao and Luo Yi have always had a grudge, and they intend to let Luo Yi and Gao Kaidao restrain each other.

There was a famine in Youzhou this year, and Gao Kaidao attacked Youzhou in the name of borrowing food, causing Luo Yi to suffer heavy losses. Coupled with the fact that the Turks went south, Luo Yi was already seriously injured.At this time, Luo Yi did not dare to rebel, the king had already planned to support Youzhou with [-] shi of grain, so it was right to support Luo Yi, and let him continue to help the court to restrain Gao.

The candidate for the envoy is mainly Cen Wenwen, the head of the Shence Mansion, and the candidate for the deputy envoy, the king recommended the son of Chang Shi, Wen Wuyin.I don't know the long history, what do you think? "
