Chapter 899 If I Want To Kill You, How Can Your Head Be Safe?

Chapter 21 If I want to kill you, how can your head rest

"Chang'an in Guanzhong, the current situation is different from the information we have received. You must explain to the great Jieli Khan!" With a strong killing intent, he finally gave up.Although the words were blunt, the attitude softened.

Yu Wenhuaji said lightly: "You know what a fart, this is just an illusion!"

"Illusion?" Bu Lugen said suspiciously: "These Chang'an pancakes are only two yuan a piece, and you can drink wine and eat meat as you like. Is this what you call famine?"

Bu Lugen's words were like a sharp dagger, stabbing Yuhuahua and the softest part of his heart.

The food war is Yu Wenhuaji's most proud masterpiece. Due to the drought in Guanzhong this year, it is inevitable that the grain harvest will be in short supply.As early as last year when Fu Gongyou rebelled, Yu Wenhuaji guessed that the problem of the Jianghuai army's rebellion would be the same as that of Liu Shishan's rebellion in Hebei.

On the surface, Liu Shishan and Fu Gongyou are ambitious, but in fact, Genyuan is the family leader of Hebei and the Jianghuai family, bargaining with the court. This matter is still on the table for negotiation in the end.

So at that time, Yu Wenhua and the family members of Guanzhong began to cooperate secretly. At that time, Yu Wenhua and Li Shimin and Li Jiancheng's plan were to lose both sides. In the end, the throne was cheaper than Li Yuanji. In this case, Datang will become the same as the Eastern Jin Dynasty The puppet of the aristocratic family, the emperor is just a Bodhisattva in the temple, a decoration.The imperial power, military power, and financial power are all in the hands of the aristocratic families in Guanzhong.

Yu Wenhuaji's plan was good, but the result was beyond his expectation. Li Shimin failed unexpectedly. Chen Ying stepped forward to prevent Fang Xuanling and Duan Zhixuan from taking Nanya and controlling the Zhengshitang. The prisoner army, which was going to be used to control Chang'an, was strangled in the bud before it could form an army.

Li Shimin failed, and Li Jiancheng became the new emperor.Yu Wenhua and the family members of the Guanzhong family had no choice but to use their tactics to short the grain market. Three or four million people of the Li and Tang courts were taken as hostages, forcing the court to make concessions to the family members of the Guanzhong family, forming a political situation in which the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty left Guanzhong.

However, Chen Ying was even more sensitive than Wei Zheng and Fang Xuanling, and he also used his tricks. When the Guanzhong aristocratic family made arrangements, he was also making arrangements. Fortunately, the Guanzhong aristocratic clan suffered a big loss and suffered heavy losses.

The current prosperity of Chang'an and Guanzhong is based on the flesh and blood of the family members of the Guanzhong family. This made the family members of the Guanzhong family not only resent, but also hate them even more. Naturally, they did not dare to launch a mutiny, but they did some tricks secretly, such as the lack of food in the East Turks. , They support some food, the Eastern Turks lack weapons and armor, they can provide these help.

Yu Wenhuaji came to cooperate with Bulugen with such a purpose.As long as Jieli Khan can rely on his own strength to break through Lingzhou, go down Lingzhou, and enter Guanzhong, it will be unimpeded.

For Yu Wenhuaji's promise, Bulu Gendu sneered, and smiled disapprovingly: "Anyone can say good things, but although we Turkic people are barbarians in your eyes, we are definitely not fools!"

Yu Wenhua asked, "What do you want?"

Bu Lugen said calmly: "500 million catties of steel, or [-] sets of iron armor, [-] horizontal knives..."

Bu Lugen suddenly opened his mouth and asked for equipment that could arm 20 troops. The value of these equipment has long exceeded the financial support of the Guanzhong family. If the Guanzhong family is not involved in the grain market, they will suffer heavy losses. They can really get money and food, but at this time, let alone the equipment of 20 troops, they can't even get the equipment of [-] or [-] troops.

Yu Wenhua shook his head and said, "It's simply impossible. Our biggest concession is to assure you that after you break through Lingzhou, all the states and counties south of Yuanzhou can be completely handed over to you!"

Brugen shook his head and said, "It's the same whether you give it or not. Even if you don't give it, we Turkic warriors can still grab it with our knives!"

"Steal?" Yu Wenhuaji stared at Bu Lugen with a murderous look in his eyes like a wolf, and said with a sneer: "If you want to give it to you, you can get it, but if you don't want to give it to you, you won't even get a grain of food. When the time comes, once the fire is burned, you will still be unable to move an inch!"

After half a day of wrangling, Yu Wenhuaji finally agreed to supply Xieli Khan with [-] sets of armor and equipment for [-] troops.

……

Under the direction of Zheng Guanyin, the waiters and maidservants of the East Palace busily arranged the Yuanjiu Banquet,
Zheng Guanyin felt dizzy for a while looking at the dense crowd of palace people coming and going.

Zheng Guanyin frowned in displeasure, and said impatiently: "Fourth brother, we won't need so many servants for tomorrow's banquet. All the maidservants from your house who came to help can go back."

Li Yuanji said with a smile: "I'd better stay for a few more days until the banquet is over. This is the first time Your Majesty has hosted a banquet for officials, and it is also the first time for Li Jing to be hosted. Don't be careless."

Zheng Guanyin drooped his shoulders discouragedly, and sighed helplessly.

Li Jiancheng originally planned to appoint Chen Ying as the Grand Marshal of the Jingbei Army and Horses, to command the main force of the Twelve Guards of the Tang Dynasty, and to cooperate with the outside, the Liangzhou General Manager's Mansion, the Lingzhou General Manager's Mansion, the Hedong General Manager's Mansion, the Andong General Manager's Mansion, and the Western General Manager's Mansion. 45 The army is preparing to go north to conquer the Turks and settle the problems left over from the history of the Turks once and for all.

However, Chen Ying rejected the appointment, and recommended Li Jing as the Grand Marshal of the Jingbei Army. Including himself, all the soldiers and horses in the world belonged to him.

Li Jiancheng thought that Chen Ying might be worried that he had made too many meritorious deeds, and he was afraid that his meritorious deeds would be overwhelming, so he gave it up to Li Jing.After careful consideration, Li Jiancheng decided to agree to Chen Ying's proposal, which is of course also a protection for Chen Ying.

In fact, Li Jiancheng also thought badly. Of course, Chen Ying didn't want to be the Generalissimo of Jingbei, but he knew his own ability. Not everyone is the god of war Han Xin, and not all generals can command tens of hundreds of soldiers. Wan Dajun.

Leading tens of thousands of troops to stand alone, Chen Ying was absolutely unambiguous, but let Chen Ying be in charge independently. From the Western Regions to Andong, on the front thousands of miles long, the twelve guards and sixteen armies totaled more than [-] times. Two-thirds of Datang's field troops were really beyond Chen Ying's command.

Li Jiancheng ordered Li Jing to return to Beijing to report on his duties, which was actually to discuss the Northern Expedition.When Li Jing arrived, Li Jiancheng set up a grand banquet for civil and military officials.

Holding the roster in his hand, the supervisor in the hall called out the names of the officials in a loud voice one by one, and said in a melodious tone: "Duke Wei, Da Sikong Pei Ji is going to the hall!

Pei Ji Shi ran into the hall. "

Pei Ji bowed to Li Jiancheng and said, "My subject, Pei Ji, pay homage to Your Majesty!"

Li Jiancheng nodded and said, "Old Xiangguo is exempt from the ceremony! Watch!"

The servant of the Huangmen led Pei Ji to the desk and sat down.

The supervisor in the hall sang again: "Song Guogong, Shangshu's right servant shoots, Xiao Yu goes to the hall!"

"Liang Guogong, General Hussars, Marquis Zuowei, Chen Ying, go to the hall!"

"Duke Wei, the governor of Liangzhou, the champion general Li Jing, come to the palace!"

……

Li Jing entered the hall, and all the ministers sat down in order.

Li Jiancheng watched all the ministers come together, held up the wine cup and said, "I'm hosting a banquet today, all my loves, feel free to drink!"

All the officials suddenly raised their wine cups.

All the officials laughed and said, pushing cups and changing cups.

Yuchi Jingde, whose face was flushed from drinking, stood up staggeringly, pointed at Fang Xuanling and said, "The titles and official positions of a certain family are all obtained by following His Majesty, with one sword and one sword. You are a slave with three surnames. Humble, with a low title, an old man who abolished King Qin, a sinner who was pardoned, what qualifications do he have to sit at the head of a certain family at a banquet?"

Yuchi Jingde dropped the wine cup and rushed towards Fang Xuanling.

Li Daozong came out from the slanting stab and hugged Yuchi Jingde.

Yu Chigong just punched Li Daozong with a black eye.

Li Jiancheng, who was eating food with a smile on his face, became furious and threw his chopsticks on the ground viciously.

Li Jiancheng roared angrily: "Li Anyan, drag Yuchi Jingde to the prison to sober up."

Li Anyan, who was in charge of guarding the hall, hurriedly commanded the warriors in the hall, and stepped forward to lock Yuchi Jingde.

Yuchi Gong was so drunk that his relatives didn't recognize him, he punched the warriors in the palace.

Li Yuanji looked like he was watching a good show, gloating at his misfortune.

Looking at this scene, Chen Ying sighed in his heart.

He knew Yu Chigong's drinking capacity well. He said that after drinking a glass of wine, even if he drank a whole jug of wine, he would not lose his composure. The only explanation was that there was something wrong with the wine.

Seeing that Yuchi Gong dared to resist the arrest, Li Jiancheng was furious, Yu Chigong's drinking was to save his face, Li Jiancheng went up against the case, and was about to order.

Chen Ying hurriedly got up, picked up a basin of clean water, and poured water on Yu Chigong's head.

Yuchi Gong shuddered violently, and looked at Chen Ying inexplicably.

He was about to argue, but Chen Ying didn't allow Yu Chigong to speak, and scolded his head and face: "Yuchi Jingde, have you poured too much horse urine? Get out of here, General!"

Yu Chigong took advantage of the situation and asked the two warriors in the hall to leave the hall.

After Yu Chigong made such a fuss, the banquet naturally couldn't go on, the whole hall was messed up by Yu Chigong and all the warriors in the hall in just a short moment.

All the ministers left one after another, and Li Jiancheng left the table angrily with a livid face.

Taking advantage of everyone's inattention, Chen Ying was going to pick up the wine that Yu Chigong had drunk and check the results.Unexpectedly, when Chen Ying came to Yu Chigong's case, he found that Yu Chigong's wine jar had fallen to the ground at some point, and all the wine was spilled on the ground.

Chen Ying pretended not to notice that he slipped and fell to the ground, and dipped the drink on the ground with his sleeve.

Wei Zheng's eyes were bright, he quietly walked up to Chen Ying and asked in a low voice: "Is there a problem with the wine?"

Chen Ying nodded and said: "Of course there is a problem, don't you know what kind of alcohol Yuchi Jingde is!"

Saying that, Chen Ying tore off the sleeve that was stained with wine, and handed it to Wei Zheng.

Wei Zheng rubbed his sleeves with his fingers, and put his fingers in his mouth. After a while, Wei Zheng's face changed drastically, and he murmured: "Aconitum, Tiannanxing, sheep's azalea (also known as yellow rhododendron), aconite, Ma Qian... what a domineering illusion drug!"

Chen Ying pushed Wei Zheng and said, "Hurry up, go see Your Majesty, you will be in trouble if you are late!"

However, when Chen Ying met Zheng Guanyin, he knew that Li Jiancheng went to the prison in Dali Temple angrily.

Chen Ying and Wei Zheng's expressions changed drastically, and they hurriedly said, "Let's go, go to the prison in Dali Temple!"

……

In the prison of Dali Temple, Yuchi Jingde, whose hair was full of grass clippings, looked a little dazed. At this moment, seeing Li Jiancheng coming in, he quickly lowered his head.

Li Jiancheng didn't speak, just paced slowly back and forth in the cell.

Yuchi Jingde couldn't help but hiccupped.

Li Jiancheng glared angrily, and shouted desperately: "Are you still drinking? Shall I bring you some more jars of wine?"

Yuchi Jingde looked embarrassed, and continued to lower his head and said: "A certain family lost their composure in public and disturbed His Majesty's banquet, they deserve death..."

Li Jiancheng looked at Yuchi Jingde, made an apology unwillingly, and snorted coldly: "Duplicity, do you feel wronged?"

Yuchi Jingde raised his head quietly, and glanced at Li Jiancheng.When he found Li Jiancheng, his face was still frosty, he quickly lowered his head and said, "The last general dare not.

Li Jiancheng hated iron but said, "Do you know the story of Han Gaozu Liu Bang and Han Xin, the group of heroes who founded the country?"

Yuchi Jingde shook his head and said, "I... know a little bit."

Li Jiancheng said indifferently: "Zang Tu, king of Yan, was beheaded by Liu Bang on the charge of treason in the year Liu Bang became emperor. Han Xin, the second year after Liu Bang became emperor, was arrested on the same charge of attempted rebellion. Later, he was executed by Empress Lu in the Chang'an Palace, and the three clans were punished..."

The more Yuchi Jingde listened, the more he felt something was wrong, staring blankly at the weeds on the ground.

Li Jiancheng's speech became faster and faster, and the murderous intent in his voice became stronger and stronger: "There are also Han Wangxin, Yan Wang Lu Wan, Zhao Wang Zhang Er, Xia Hou Chen Xi, Liang Wang Peng Yue, and Huainan Wang Yingbu. After Liu Bang killed Peng Yue , chopped his body into meat paste, and then sent people to distribute it to the princes, and taste it with the heroes..."

Yuchi Jingde looked up at Li Jiancheng uneasily and said, "Your Majesty, do you remember the promise you made to the brothers in the Chenjiapu Mansion the night before Xuanwu Gate?"

Li Jiancheng did not answer Yuchi Jingde, but continued, pacing slowly in the cell and said: "In the past, when I read history books, I always felt that Liu Bang and Liu Xiu, the entrepreneurial masters, treated the heroes too coldly and ruthlessly. I, I must not do this in the future. But now, I gradually understand their state of mind, and it may not be their original intention to treat heroes like that."

Yuchi Jingde asked angrily: "Is His Majesty's current actions not ruthless enough to the brothers?"

Li Jiancheng turned his head, squinted his eyes at Yuchi Jingde and said, "You have no right to say that I am ruthless, old brothers, no one has the right to say that I am ruthless... If I am ruthless, how can your head rest?"

Yuchi Jingde was stunned and speechless.

At this moment, Wei Zheng rushed into the prison and said anxiously: "Your Majesty, there is a situation!"

Li Jiancheng stared at Wei Zheng and Chen Ying, who came in a hurry, in astonishment, "Do you think I will kill Yuchi Jingde?"

Chen Ying laughed and said: "No, no, Your Majesty is magnanimous, how could this be so! Besides, with His Majesty's wisdom, he must have discovered that there is a problem with alcohol. No matter how Yuchi Jingde bragged, his drinking capacity is recognized. Drink a cup of horse urine, and you will be ugly, and your majesty must have noticed the abnormality!"

Hearing Chen Ying's words, Li Jiancheng suddenly realized.

Although Yu Chigong complained a little about the disarmament, after Chen Ying ordered the broadcast, he also realized that there were too many old and weak soldiers in the army, so if they were allowed to stay in the army, once there was a war, they would be sent to their deaths.Even if there is some resentment, it is not like this.

What's more, if Yu Chigong wanted to clean up Fang Xuanling, why would he take advantage of the banquet?Although Fang Xuanling was protected by sixteen guards from the Yuan Sui Imperial Army, these guards from the Yuan Sui Imperial Army were no match for Yu Chigong, not to mention 16 people, even if there were 160 of them, they would not be able to stop Yu Chigong from wanting to kill Fang Xuanling.

Li Jiancheng's face changed drastically when he heard Chen Ying say that there was something wrong with the wine.

Wei Zhengdao: "The wine that Yuchi Jingde drank contained an overbearing magic drug!"

Li Jiancheng looked at Wei Zheng seriously and said, "Is that true?"

Chen Ying handed half of his sleeve to Li Jiancheng's hand and said, "Your Majesty, you can ask the imperial physician to order to see what kind of poison is in this wine!"

Li Jiancheng's face became even uglier.
