At the end of the Sui Dynasty
Chapter 697
Chapter 697
As soon as the wind blew, several peach blossoms floated in from the courtyard and landed on Xu Shiji's shoulders. The latter flicked off the petals lightly, and said thoughtfully: "Li Xiaogong said that Shibi Khan was leading the army. He died of illness when he went south to crusade against Tang, which reminds me of Xue Ju in Longxi, who also died suddenly when he was planning to attack Chang'an.
Everyone nodded in unison, this matter is indeed very strange.
Changsun Heng'an couldn't help but said: "I heard that General Li Jing was also assassinated when he sent troops to Yanmen County, and all these things are beneficial to Li Tang. Could it be that Li Tang sent people to kill him?"
Everyone looked at each other awe-inspiringly. In fact, everyone had the same suspicion, but the problem was that Li Jing was assassinated, while Xue Ju and Shibi Khan both died suddenly and inexplicably. There may not be any rumors, and in comparison, Xue Ju and Shibi Khan's death method is even more dreadful. After all, assassination is tangible and can be guarded against. The most fearful thing is that they don't even know how they died.
Gao Bufan tapped on the coffee table and said, "You all should pay attention to your diet in the future, especially Shiji."
Everyone couldn't help but tremble slightly when they heard the words, and they all nodded in agreement.
Gao Bufan said again: "Shiji, you also took a break for a while, and returned to lead the army in Hongnong County to put some pressure on Li Yuan."
"The last general has orders." Xu Shiji stood up and said solemnly. Usually, everyone can chat casually, but when it comes to business, naturally they can't be casual anymore.
Gao Bufan said again: "Wuji, you are still in charge of the logistics."
Changsun Wuji also stood up and accepted the order solemnly.
After Gao Bufan arranged the business, everyone chatted while drinking tea.
At this time, Changsun Hengan said with emotion: "Li Erlang is actually a rare and handsome talent, Li Yuan's removal of his military power is really a foolish move."
Changsun Wuji frowned and said, "Li Yuan should not be so stupid, maybe there are other reasons."
Xu Shiji's heart moved, and he said with a little joy: "Maybe it involves a dispute for the crown prince. If it is true, it will be of great benefit to us."
Du Ruhui said: "It's possible that Li Shimin holds the military power and has made great achievements in battle. There are also a lot of talents in the Palace of the Prince of Qin, both in terms of prestige and strength. It is normal for the latter to be afraid of Li Shimin. They will fight openly and secretly, and even lead to a battle for succession."
There is no doubt that Xu Shiji and Du Ruhui's deduction is very accurate. It is said that since ancient times, ruthless is the most imperial family. In the past dynasties, brothers killed each other in order to compete for the throne.
In the real history, Li Shimin cruelly killed his eldest brother Li Jiancheng and his fourth brother Li Yuanji's family through the Xuanwumen Incident, and finally forced his father Li Yuan to abdicate, and then he sat on the throne. Although the historical records say that Li Shimin was passive It is better to start first, but history books are always written by the victors, and they can be polished as much as they want, and they can be publicized as much as they want, and future generations will have no way of knowing whether it is true or false.
Gao Bufan glanced at Du Ruhui and Changsun Wuji strangely, because in real history, these two were Li Shimin's confidantes, deeply involved in the "Xuanwumen Mutiny", and it could even be said that they planned the whole incident, and then Yu Chigong, Hou Junji and others are responsible for the implementation, but because of himself as a time traveler, history has changed a lot, and now Du Ruhui and Changsun Wuji have become his confidantes, but I don’t know if there will be a "Xuanwu Gate" change".
Both Changsun Wuji and Du Ruhui were a little stunned, the latter asked: "Why does the King of Qi look at this subordinate with such eyes, could it be that the subordinate said something wrong?"
Gao Bufan sweated secretly, shook his head and said: "No, on the contrary, Mr. Du's analysis is very reasonable, and Li Yuan must have seen the crisis, so let's take this opportunity to lift Li Shimin's military power, lest Li Shimin get too popular, and eventually It caused their brothers to kill each other."
Du Ruhui nodded slightly and said: "There is also this possibility, after all, Li Yuan is indeed a man of great wisdom."
Gao Bufan took a sip from his teacup and said, "By the way, this king suddenly woke up to another matter. Bing Yuanzhen went to the press a few days ago and said that Zhu Can's cannibalism is not true. What do you guys think of this king's acceptance of Zhu Can's surrender?"
Changsun Heng'an immediately said: "Impossible, as the saying goes, there is nothing wrong with it. The story of Zhu Can's cannibalism has long been rumored. It is well known that his army plundered the people as military rations. Everywhere he passed Thousands of miles, ten rooms and ten empties, these are obvious to all.”
Gao Bufan's eyes flashed and he said, "Heng'an means that Bing Yuan really lied?"
Changsun Heng'an shook his head and said: "Heng'an does not dare to say anything about this matter, but King Qi had better send another reliable person to investigate, so as not to be deceived."
Du Ruhui and Changsun Wuji looked at each other and remained silent, but Xu Shiji said bluntly: "There is no need to investigate, I have known Bing Yuanzhen since I was in Wagang. I took advantage of Zhu Can, so I speak good words for him to clear the air."
The word "cleaning white" is very novel, so it is naturally learned from His Royal Highness Qi Wang.
Gao Bufan couldn't help raising his eyebrows. The reason why he entrusted Bing Yuanzhen with the task of exterminating Zhu Can was to give him a chance to perform, and it was also a test. If Bing Yuanzhen managed it well, Gao Bufan would tolerate it. His shortcoming of being greedy for money, let him be reused. If Bing Yuan really screwed up the matter, then I'm sorry, and I can make it right. After accepting bribes, this guy actually lied for Zhu Can to deceive himself. How can this kind of person be himself? Safe to use?
Of course, Gao Bufan would not rush to a conclusion, he pondered for a moment before saying: "The verification is still necessary, so let the imperial historian Pei Yun investigate, he is familiar with this field."
Changsun Wuji shook his head and said, "This is not appropriate."
"Why?" Gao Bufan asked hastily.
Changsun Wuji explained: "Bing Yuanzhenruo is really in cahoots with Zhu Can, if Pei Yun goes to investigate at this time, I'm afraid it's sending a sheep to a tiger's mouth."
Gao Bufan's heart trembled, and what he said was true. Bing Yuanzhen was a man of unscrupulous morals, and Zhu Can was also a murderous person. Pei Yun went to investigate. If he caught something about the two of them, he might be silenced or even killed. Pushing Bing Yuanzhen into the opposite direction, the gain will not be worth the loss.
"Then Wuji has a trick?" Gao Bufan asked.
Changsun Wuji's eyes flashed and he said, "Why don't King Qi pretend to agree to Zhu Can's request to surrender, then take the opportunity to recall both him and Bing Yuanzhen to Luoyang, and then send Pei Yun to investigate, if it is found that Zhu Can did not eat If it is found that Zhu Can is indeed a cannibal, then make him an official, and if it is found that Zhu Can is indeed a cannibal, then he will be punished."
Gao Bufan said happily after hearing the words: "Wuji's plan is very good, let's do it according to what you said."
…………
Although there are still two days until the fifteenth, the moon in the sky is almost full, and the bright and soft moonlight sprinkles Luoshui and the deck.
Gao Bufan was sitting on the deck, holding Yang Qingruo's tender body in his arms like warm and fragrant soft jade, quietly staring at Luoshui in a daze, while Yang Qingruo's starry eyes were blurred, looking at the bright moon in the sky with ecstasy, as if caught in a dream. In the infinite daydream, that stunningly beautiful face is so beautiful that it is dreamlike, poetic and picturesque, and it is breathtakingly beautiful.
At this moment, there are many painted boats cruising in Luoshui. The lights are brightly lit, and the sound of silk and bamboo and laughter can be heard endlessly. It seems that the prosperous Luoshui in those days has returned. Waves.
At this time, Yang Qingruo finally withdrew his gaze, glanced at Gao Bufan who was staring at the water like a goose, and asked, "What are you thinking? Did you fancy a beauty in the opposite painting boat, or can someone please help you?" Come sing a song?"
Yang Qingruo's voice is beautiful, like the sounds of nature!
Gao Bufan laughed and said: "The most beautiful woman in the world, the beauty who can sing the best song is in the arms of this king at this moment, why bother to look far away!"
Yang Qingruo's heart was sweet, and she said angrily: "Hanging upside down the cured duck—glib tongue!"
"Qing Ruo, do you want to try this king's glib tongue!" Gao Bufan smirked.Yang Qingruo hurriedly covered her mouth and said with a little shame, "I don't want it, his tongue is still numb now!"
Gao Bufan sweated secretly, coughed lightly and said: "Then next time, the king will only use one success power."
Yang Qingruo gave someone a pinch, and suddenly said with an unnatural expression: "Kedun sent an envoy to Gaoyang Palace, and wanted to take Auntie (Empress Xiao) to live in Turkic for a while."
Gao Bufan's heart moved, and he asked, "Then what does the Empress Dowager mean?"
"Aunt lives well in Gaoyang Palace, naturally she is not willing to go to Turkic, but it's not easy to wipe Ke Dun's face." Yang Qingruo replied.
Gao Bufan said with a smile: "What's the difficulty? We will get married at the end of the year. The Empress Dowager can use this to decline Ke Dun's invitation."
Yang Qingruo nodded and said: "This is also a way. In fact, it's good if my aunt doesn't go to Turkic, but Dun is very strong, and it is inevitable that many troubles will arise."
Gao Bufan also experienced Ke Dun's strength back then. This woman is not simple, and she is from the imperial family of the Sui Dynasty. She suddenly wants to take Empress Xiao to Turkic, and I don't know what to do. It's best not to bully her!
Gao Bufan changed the topic and said: "By the way, didn't Qingruo ask me what I was thinking just now? I was thinking, what method can be used to kill people silently without leaving any loopholes?"
Yang Qingruo's complexion changed slightly, and he asked suspiciously, "What do you want to do with this?"
Gao Bufan knew at the first sight that Yang Qingruo's thinking was wrong, and he pretended to be annoyed: "What are you thinking about, am I that kind of person?"
Yang Qingruo's pretty face flushed, and she offered a sweet kiss. Seeing that Gao's face was still stinky, she pecked his lips like a dragonfly, and said angrily, "Enough is enough, don't push yourself too far!"
Gao Bufan then smiled and said: "Forget it, I will forgive you once, the thing is like this, Xue Ju and Shibi Khan died so suddenly, I suspect that someone secretly murdered them."
Seven days of National Day, please be happy, it has nothing to do with Codeword Dog, it will be updated anyway.Alas……
