Tang Dynasty good father-in-law

Chapter 451 Misfortune, poisonous plan

Li Shimin, who returned to the court, couldn't wait to read the information about Southwest, and of course it was more about Annan.

"Has it caused a dispute between the two big clans in Vietnam?"

Li Shimin murmured softly in his eyes, although Annan is now under the jurisdiction of the Tang Dynasty, in fact, only a small part of the place is under the jurisdiction.

Most of Annan's areas are in a state of autonomy, which is controlled by the nominal King Annan.

But in fact, it is controlled by Annan's four big families, namely the Ruan, Li, Wu, and Chen families.

Even if Li Shimin didn't have much interest in Annan before, and he didn't know about it, he would be shocked when he knew it.

I didn't expect such a small place to have so many complicated relationships.

Knowing the information does not mean that you can take action immediately, there are various reasons.

If you want to fully incorporate Annan into the territory of the Tang Dynasty, instead of wandering outside like you are now.

Then there must be one person that cannot be avoided in this matter, that is, Qiu He, the governor of Jiaozhou.

After guarding Annan's gate for many years, Qiu He is undoubtedly the person who knows Annan best. Without his help, it would not be so easy.

"Have someone summon the eldest grandson and others into the palace."

"And ask Baiqi to inform Yafu about this matter, to see if he has any ideas."

Li Shimin spoke first, but then added another sentence.

Now we need to discuss a reasonable method. Li Shimin may still have a lot of burdens.

But there was no turning back when he opened the bow. Now for Datang, Li Shimin has only one way to go to the dark.

A group of officials soon gathered in the imperial study room, including civil servants and some generals.

After the new year, most of the military generals have returned to the places where they were stationed, and the current Tang Dynasty did not want to relax.

Among them, the civil servants are led by Changsun Wuji, and the military generals on the other side are naturally led by Li Jing, Shangshu of the Ministry of War.

Of course, except for some ambitious people on the general side, most people don't care about the head of the general.

The reason why Li Jing stood at the front was mainly because he had the most meritorious service.

In addition to veteran veterans, Xue Rengui also appeared at the end of the general team, but there were quite a few wry smiles on his face.

"There should be nothing to do with me this time."

Xue Rengui thought silently while observing the people around him, he still has self-knowledge.

Because of some irresistible reasons, he made such a great achievement before, but this kind of thing probably only happened once.

The next words must give other people some opportunities. You must know that there are many people in the ranks of generals.

Some of them he knew, and some he didn't know. For example, Xue Rengui had never met this Minister of the Ministry of War who had just been transferred.

"How do you guys feel about this matter?"

Li Shimin glanced at everyone present and said solemnly, when facing serious business.

This emperor always has a bit of majesty, and lacks the usual gentleness.

"Your Majesty, maybe we can send someone to contact King Annan."

Changsun Wuji spoke first, with a hint of confidence in his words.

If you want to occupy righteousness, then it is undoubtedly more righteous than this King Annan.

"Your Majesty, now we should prepare first."

"That's right, the soldiers should be the first to gather in the southwest."

As Changsun Wuji took the lead in exporting, many civil servants and military generals expressed their views one after another.

Those who can stand here are basically people who know about Annan's affairs, so naturally they will not soften their hearts in the slightest.

Of course, some people spoke, but some of them didn't. Li Shimin's gaze fell on Li Jing involuntarily.

"I don't know what the pharmacist thinks about it?"

When Li Shimin's voice sounded, everyone's eyes fell on Li Jing instantly.

"Your Majesty, I didn't know that this time it was for the land of Annan!?"

Li Jing was the first to ask aloud, with a hint of inquiry in his words.

"Not bad!"

Li Shimin replied without hesitation.

While the monarch and his ministers were answering, Xue Rengui also secretly looked at the Minister of the Ministry of War.

Different from other military generals, this Li Jing looked more like a middle-aged scribe, with the aura of a famous general on the battlefield restrained.

Even Xue Rengui couldn't help sighing secretly that people should not be judged by appearances, but what made him more concerned was the idea of ​​this outstanding meritorious being.

"If it is handed over to the minister, then the minister will have King Annan killed and blame Annan's four major families."

"Originally, there was already a gap between the four major families. At that time, they will inevitably doubt each other, and even want their own people to take the position of King Annan."

"At the same time, control the descendants of King Annan, and then let the army enter Annan under the guise of these descendants finding out the truth."

"The next situation is completely in my hands. The army enters Annan, and the rest depends on the choices of the four major families."

Li Jing's strong voice sounded in the imperial study room, and Annan seemed to have been included in the territory of the Tang Dynasty in his words.

"poison!"

At this time, the first reaction of everyone present was this word, even they did not expect that the Minister of War's strategy was so vicious.

Especially Xue Rengui, who was standing at the back, secretly felt that if this strategy is used, it will be simple and clear whether it is righteousness or controlling the Annan area.

Although he didn't go on to say anything, Xue Rengui knew that there were not many ways left for the four big families of Annan.

Because when the time comes, the army will definitely charge the death of King Annan on the four major families.

Even if the four major families know about it, so what, there is no possibility except to rebel.

If it is a rebellion, then it just gives the army a chance to wipe out Annan in one fell swoop.

The people present were naturally not fools, and soon understood the possible consequences of Li Jing's strategy.

"The pharmacist really has a lot of ideas."

There was a trace of appreciation in Li Shimin's eyes and he said that although he didn't agree on the surface, he actually agreed.

No matter how poisonous the strategy is, Li Shimin is not a person who is indecisive.

What's more, what Li Shimin needs is a stable Annan, a stable Annan who can provide food for Datang.

Changsun Wuji and the others on the side also showed a wry smile on their faces, they didn't expect that Li Yaoshi would steal the limelight in the end.

But Changsun Wuji also secretly said in his heart, it seems that he is not cruel enough.

The current Zhao Guogong is only 35 years old, and there is still a short distance from the future.

Fortunately, Li Shimin's strategy against Li Jing began to improve again. With the help of so many people, a complete strategy also began to take shape.

Of course, there is nothing about Xue Rengui in this, but Xue Rengui can also see that His Majesty is cultivating himself.
