Emperor Zhenguan

Chapter 675
The crisis in Fuyu City seems to have disappeared quietly, but in the dark, secret agents spread the news to various places.

In Goguryeo, Gao Jianwu, the king of Goguryeo who was the deadly enemy with Yuangai Suwen, naturally placed a spy around Yuangai Suwen, and he got the news of Fuyu City at the first time.

So, he immediately summoned Mo Lizhi Ulchi Wende.

After Ulji Wendeok learned about Fuyu City, he immediately understood Gao Jianwu's meaning, and he immediately suggested: "My lord, we can send envoys to Chang'an to pay homage to the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, form an alliance with the Tang Dynasty in secret, and deal with Yuangai Suwen .”

No matter who wants to kill Yuan Gai Suwen, Ulji Wende is definitely one of them.Because he snatched Yuan Gai Suwen's position, Yuan Gai Suwen would never let him go.That being the case, it is better to strike first and kill Yuan Gai Suwen.

Gao Jianwu is not tall, short and fat, with small eyes, very typical Goguryeo appearance.

Gao Jianwu was very happy to hear Ulji Wende's words, that's what he thought.

"This is my plan. When Emperor Sui Yang conquered Goguryeo, many Central Plains people stayed in Goguryeo. This time we can return these people to the Tang Dynasty, and by the way, the bones of the soldiers of the Sui Dynasty who died in our country. And return it to the Tang Dynasty, so as to win the favor of the Tang Dynasty emperor, form an alliance with him, and jointly deal with Yuan Gai Suwen, a rebellious official and traitor."

"Very good!" Ulji Wende said: "Your Majesty has considered it very carefully. In this way, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty must have a good impression of us."

In fact, since the second year of Takede, the Tang Dynasty has been negotiating with Goguryeo for this work, and has also successively received many exiled soldiers or bones from the former Sui Dynasty.

Gao Jianwu asked: "By the way, is there any movement in Silla Baekje?"

"Not yet, but we can't take it lightly." After a pause, Eulji Moondeok said, "If we can join forces with Tang Dynasty to destroy Yeongaesomun this time, it will be of great benefit to deal with Silla Baekje in the future."

The current peninsula is in the period of the Three Kingdoms struggle for hegemony.Goguryeo, Silla, and Baekje, the three countries do not like each other, either you hit me or I hit you.Anyway, no one is allied with anyone, only someone who suddenly jumps out to take advantage.

Goguryeo is the largest in the Three Kingdoms, but because Yuangai Suwen, a second-five son, caused great internal friction, which made Goguryeo look the weakest.

"You are right, there is no delay in eliminating Yuan Gai Suwen." Gao Jianwu paced back and forth, and said, "Well, let Gao Zang go to Chang'an this time."

"Master Gao Zang?"

"Yes." Gao Jianwu nodded and said, "This way, we can show our sincerity."

"I have no objection."

When the Goguryeo monarchs and ministers discussed the alliance with the Tang Dynasty, Baekje and Silla were not idle.

They also coveted Goguryeo, and among the merchants they sent out, there were more or less one or two secret agents.

What happened in Fuyu City also reached their ears.However, they didn't think much about other things, because Baekje and Silla each have their own difficulties.

King Jinbaekjeong of Silla Shinpyeong is about to die, but the king of Silla who has been in power for more than fifty years has no sons. At present, the country is considering the issue of succession to the throne, and there is no time to deal with the affairs of Goguryeo.

The only pity is the father and son of Silla generals Kim Soo Hyun and Kim Yushin.

The year before last, the father and son led an army to capture two or three cities of Goguryeo. For them, the last thing they wanted was to see the Tang Dynasty meddling in the affairs of Goguryeo. , so that they can take advantage of it.

Kim Yushin was born in a noble family, and his mother was Mrs. Wanming, the daughter of King Gamun of Lizong of Silla, but this child was born by his father and Mrs. Wanming.

King Lijong Gemun is the grandfather of King Jinpyeong, so Kim Soo-hyun and his son are closely related to the royal family of Silla.

After learning about the conflict in Fuyu City, the father and son discussed it for a long time, and finally decided to ignore it!
Their top priority is to quickly find an heir to the throne of Silla.

As for Baekje, its king Fu Yuzhang often went to war with Goguryeo in the early years, and later negotiated peace with Goguryeo, and turned to Silla, plundering many Silla cities.

However, the two countries have one thing in common, that is, they both have a good relationship with the Tang Dynasty, and they often send envoys to pay homage to the Tang Dynasty emperor.

Li Zhiyun also met the envoys of Silla and Baekje two or three times, and casually comforted them.For Li Zhiyun, regardless of Nima, the king of Silla and the king of Baekje, he must die in the end.

When the first emperor was in power, there were many canonizations and rewards for Goguryeo, Silla, and Baekje, as a way to appease them.Now that Li Zhiyun is on the throne, there will be little contact.As the Tang Dynasty wiped out the major powers in the grassland, the prestige of the Tang Dynasty did not become unfamiliar with the alienation between countries, but in the eyes of the three countries of the peninsula, it became even more terrifying.

The more indifferent Tang Chao was, the more nervous they became.

Baekje King Fu Yuzhang regained his skills and began to make friends with Goguryeo and the Tang Dynasty, and then started against Silla.

In the early years, Fu Yuzhang did the same to the Sui Dynasty.

In general, each of the three countries on the peninsula has inexplicable reasons to either fight or remain silent.

Now that he knows about Fuyu City, Fu Yuzhang doesn't bother to take care of it, he only has Silla in his eyes now.In particular, when he heard that the King of Silla, Jin Baijing, was about to die, he became even more impatient.

On the other hand, Li Junxian did not dare to hide the fact that he had mobilized troops to threaten Yuan Gai Suwen, and sent someone to report the matter here in detail to Emperor Li Zhiyun who was far away in Chang'an.

At this time, Li Zhiyun had returned from his inspection tour in Huayin, and Li Zhiyun was a little angry when he received Li Junxian's confession.

Because he still doesn't want to destroy the confrontation between the two powers in Goguryeo.In particular, he was going to attack Tuyuhun, and he set nails in Gaochang Kingdom, so he naturally didn't want to spread the war completely.

After seeing the letter, Li Zhiyun thought about it for more than two hours, and finally decided to fine Li Junxian's salary for one year, and at the same time remove his official title.

And warned him that if he commits the crime again, he will be deprived of his title directly!
After Li Junxian received the emperor's decree, he broke into a cold sweat with fright, and only then did he realize the fate of deploying troops without authorization.

When he was angry, his subordinates reported that the envoys of Goguryeo were going to Chang'an.

"An envoy from Goguryeo?" Li Junxian thought for a while, and his face became angry, "Yuan Gai Su Wen sent?"

He thought it was Yuan Gai Suwen who sent someone to Chang'an to report.

"No, the envoy is the nephew of King Goguryeo, Gao Zang."

Hearing this, Li Junxian's anger stopped slightly.He also knows the complicated situation inside Goguryeo, and also knows the confrontation between Gao Jianwu and Yuan Gaisuwen.Therefore, when he heard that Gao Zang was the messenger, he felt that it should not be what he thought.

"Since they are envoys, then send someone to escort them."

"Yes."

Gao Zang was escorted by Tang cavalry, successfully entered Hebei, went all the way south, crossed the big river, and entered Guanzhong.

After entering Guanzhong, the young Goguryeo royal family began to be dumbfounded.

People like him feel that it is a kind of torture to walk on the mountain road official road inside Goguryeo, so let's talk about such a magical thing as cement road.

Even, when he first saw the cement road, he asked Tang Qi, who was escorting him, for advice with a puzzled look on his face.

While Tang Qi slandered the local turtle in his heart, he gave him a simple explanation.

In this way, amidst Gao Zang's astonishment, he slowly approached the imperial capital Chang'an City, preparing to meet His Majesty Khan, the holy emperor of the Tang Dynasty.
