Man Tanghong

Chapter 158
The conversation between Ma Zhou and Xue Wanshu started and ended in a corner of the big tent.

Li Yuanji, who was in the big tent, didn't know anything about it.

After Li Yuanji ordered Xue Wanshu to handle the relocation of the families of the soldiers in Youzhou, he wrote a long letter in the big tent. After the letter was written, he sent someone to Youzhou quickly.

After the letter was sent out, he rested overnight in the big tent.

The next day, he led the army again and continued on their way.

After passing Shaoshan, they entered the boundary of Yizhou.

When they arrived in Pingcheng, Yizhou, Sun Simiao, who had disappeared in the mountains for many days, finally showed his face.

Sun Simiao was obviously collecting medicine in the mountains, but his footsteps were faster than the army, and he rushed to Pingcheng, which is later known as Datong, ahead of the army.

Pingcheng was the former capital of the Northern Wei Dynasty. Tuobagui, Emperor Daowu of the Northern Wei Dynasty, moved his capital here in AD [-]. After six Wei emperors, he has been known as the capital for nearly a hundred years.

Therefore, Pingcheng has left many relics of the Northern Wei Dynasty.

Among them, there are many hometowns and palaces, which are quite elegant in the Northern Wei Dynasty.

It's just that the hometown is still good, but the Forbidden City is all in ruins.

Under the guidance of Pingcheng Order, Li Yuanji lived in a hometown.

There is a flower garden in the hometown, where countless flowers are planted.

When the flowers are in full bloom, all kinds of flowers in the garden are competing for beauty.

Sun Simiao said that there were some precious herbs among the flowers, and it was a good time to pick them, so he led a group of children into the flowers.

Sun Simiao himself only collects herbs and doesn't hurt the flowers, those children are a little bit unscrupulous.

Under their tossing, a beautiful garden was tossed into a mess.

Pingcheng Ling was so angry that he almost fainted on the spot.

In order to curry favor with the two nobles, Li Yuanji and Li Xiuning, he worked so hard to create such a flowery garden. As a result, Li Yuanji appreciated half of it, but before Li Xiuning could appreciate it, he was brought into trouble.

Li Yuanji saw Pingcheng Ling's intentions, and deliberately took Pingcheng Ling outside the garden to comfort him, but as soon as he left the gate of the garden, Li Xiuning hurried to him.

Without waiting for Ping Cheng Ling to salute, Li Xiuning let Ping Cheng Ling go.

Pingcheng Ling could only cry with a sad face, and retreated far, far away.

After Li Xiuning confirmed that Pingcheng Ling couldn't hear their sister and brother's conversation, he said with a deep expression: "Yuanji, there is really something wrong with that monk named Zhijue."

Li Yuanji was slightly taken aback, "Have you found out?"

Li Xiuning nodded solemnly, "My people combed Wei Zeguan up and down, found that monk named Zhijue, and arrested him for interrogation.

That monk Zhijue couldn't bear the torture, so he confessed.

It is said that he is from Liang Shidu, and this time he went south to instigate Li Zhongwen, so as to prepare for the Turkic people to go south next time. "

Li Yuanji opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.

They are all tortured, and that monk Zhijue has to be recruited if he doesn't want to be recruited. If there is no problem, there must be a problem.

Otherwise, he would definitely be played to death by Li Xiuning's guards.

With Li Xiuning's status, if her guards killed a suspected monk, no one would make irresponsible remarks.

Fortunately, there is indeed a problem with that consciousness.

Otherwise, it is very likely that innocent people will be buried at the hands of Li Xiuning's guards.

"The Turkic people are not in a hurry to go south again, Liang Shidu is actually more anxious than the Turkic people. Liang Shidu is really a good helper for the Turkic people."

Li Yuanji sighed with sarcasm.

Li Xiuning gritted her teeth, she also hated Liang Shidu in her heart, but she didn't have time to worry about this issue right now.

"My people not only found the monk named Zhijue, but also found many people with problems."

Li Yuanji was stunned, thought for a moment, nodded his head and said: "As expected, if Master Liang wants to instigate Li Zhongwen, it is impossible to send only one monk, and he will definitely send other people."

Everyone has weaknesses. Since Liang Shidu has his eyes on Li Zhongwen, he will definitely try to find Li Zhongwen's weaknesses and force Li Zhongwen to submit.

Therefore, it is not enough to rely on only one monk, and other people must be dispatched to make other preparations.

If the monk fails to seduce, then try to use beauty, or use money.

As long as you try a few more times, find Li Zhongwen's weakness, and do what he likes, you will have a chance to instigate Li Zhongwen.

It was indeed a wise move for Li Xiuning to ask his subordinates to screen Wei Zeguan up and down.

Li Xiuning said worriedly: "I'm worried that if I sort out Weize Pass this time, Master Liang will send someone over later, so I'm going to send Xiang Shanzhi back to assist Li Zhongwen in guarding Weize Pass.

how do you feel? "

Li Yuanji was taken aback for a moment, and said puzzledly: "Sister, why do you need to ask me about this kind of thing?"

Be it Xiang Shanzhi or Li Zhongwen, they are all from Li Xiuning.

Li Xiuning wanted Xiang Shanzhi to go back and share Li Zhongwen's authority, so there was no need to ask him.

Li Xiuning sighed, "I originally planned to give Xiang Shanzhi to you."

"give me?"

Li Yuanji was taken aback again, thinking about it: "Why did sister give Xiang Shanzhi to me?"

Li Xiuning stared at Li Yuanji and said, "Not only Xiang Shanzhi, but also He Panren, Qiu Shili, and even Ma Sanbao."

Li Yuanji was thoughtful.

Li Xiuning continued: "After I return to Beijing this time, my father will definitely take away my military power.

I'm worried about handing over He Panren and others to other people, and I won't be able to help you if you encounter trouble in the future.

I will rest assured that I will hand over He Panren and others to you. If you encounter trouble in the future, I can also help you as the former owner of He Panren and others. "

Li Yuanji nodded slowly.

According to Li Yuan's attitude towards Li Xiuning, after Li Xiuning returns to Beijing this time, it is really possible that Li Yuan will seize the military power.

After all, Li Yuan has always disliked letting Li Xiuning lead troops, otherwise he wouldn't let Li Xiuning, a great talent, be left alone, instead, he kept letting her sit on the bench in Weize Pass.

With Li Xiuning's prestige, strength, and ability displayed in Guanzhong in the past.

If Li Yuan used her words, it would be impossible for Li Shimin to dominate alone.

Maybe Liu Heitai, Xu Yuanlang and others will surrender at Li Xiuning's feet and become the pawns of Li Xiuning's tent.

After all, Li Xiuning is definitely a professional in subduing enemies and enemies.

When Li Xiuning responded to Li Yuan's uprising in Guanzhong, Ma Sanbao was by his side.

After wandering around the pass, all the powerful enemies became her subordinates.

"Sister's worry is not unreasonable, but I don't want to take away the people on hand. After I return to Beijing, I will see if I can talk to my father and see if I can keep my sister's military power. .”

Li Yuanji looked at Li Xiuning and said.

It would be a waste and a humiliation for Li Xiuning, a heroine with a strategy in mind, to be a boudoir woman.

If Li Xiuning had no intention of doing military affairs, Li Yuan would let her be a boudoir woman, there is nothing wrong with that.

But Li Xiuning is obviously very concerned about military affairs, it would be inappropriate for Li Yuan to let her be a boudoir woman.

A bitterness flashed across Li Xiuning's face, "You don't know father, father will never change his mind just because you said a word or two."

Li Yuanji sighed in his heart, 'That may not be the case'.

Du Fuwei was summoned to Chang'an, Fu Gongyou had no restraint and fear, and he was about to turn against him soon.

If Li Yuan does not pass on the position of crown prince to Li Shimin, Li Shimin will definitely say that he is not sick.

If he said that he could not get sick again, Li Yuan could only let Li Jiancheng take action.

He just needs to find someone who has been taken advantage of, write a letter to Li Yuan, and complain about Li Shimin's grievances.

Feeling threatened, Li Jiancheng would voluntarily give up the opportunity to lead the army.

The only one who can compete with Li Xiuning is Li Xiaogong.

Li Xiaogong is easy to handle, as long as someone secretly asks Li Yuan, "Is the sage planning to rule the river with Li Xiaogong?", Li Yuan will immediately give up and let Li Xiaogong lead the army to conquer Fu Gongyou.

After all, Li Xiaogong had hammered most of the places south of the Yangtze River, leaving only Du Fuwei's Southeast Road.

If Li Xiaogong were to hammer Dongnan Road again, Li Xiaogong would have the capital to rule the river.

Although Li Xiaogong is also surnamed Li and is also Li Tang's clan, his Li is separated from Li Xiuning's Li after all.

As long as Li Yuan gave up and let Li Xiaogong lead the army, then only Li Xiuning would be left.

As for letting non-clan members lead the army, it was completely out of Li Yuan's consideration.

"Sister, there's no need to be so pessimistic. Maybe there will be a turnaround then?"

Li Yuanji smiled and comforted Li Xiuning.

"Can there be a turning point?"

Li Xiuning's eyes were still full of bitterness.

She knew Li Yuan's temperament very well.

When Li Yuan divided up all the troops under her command in the past, he didn't spare any sympathy.

It was inconvenient for Li Yuanji to tell Li Xiuning that Fu Gongyou would rebel, so he could only jokingly said: "I am my sister's turning point, as long as my father dares to take away my sister's military power, I will fight with him."

"Pfft..."

Li Xiuning was suddenly amused by Li Yuanji, the pain in his heart and the bitterness in his eyes disappeared instantly.

"With your words, my sister is already very happy. But you have reached the age of weak crown, and you can no longer quarrel with your father."

Li Xiuning reminded with a smile.

Li Yuanji said disapprovingly: "Even if I am seventy-seven years old, I am still the youngest among our brothers and sisters, and I can still make trouble."

Smallness is privilege, and smallness is the capital of spoiling.

Li Xiuning didn't know what to say, she pointed at Li Yuanji and shook her head dumbfounded.

Although what Li Yuanji said was a little unreasonable, it was really like this in most people's homes.

Young people have the privilege of making trouble.

The older ones can only accommodate the younger ones and give in to the younger ones.

"I accept your wishes, but you still don't want to go to your father to make trouble. Right and left are nothing more than military power. If I can hand it over once, I can hand it over a second time."

Li Xiuning was very moved by Li Yuanji's love and love.

But she didn't want Li Yuanji to make trouble for her.

Li Yuanji can be considered an adult, and it's not suitable for him to be mischievous anymore.

Before Li Yuanji could speak, Li Xiuning said again: "Then what do you think, let Xiang Shanzhi return to Weize Pass to assist Li Zhongwen?"

Li Yuanji thought about it, and said bluntly, "Let's just force it..."

If Master Liang continued to follow up, Xiang Shanzhi and Li Zhongwen might not be able to withstand it.

After all, Li Zhongwen's mind is not firm, and Xiang Shanzhi's status is now weaker than Li Zhongwen's. Apart from being able to stare at Li Zhongwen, it can't affect Li Zhongwen's decision at all.

Li Xiuning said with a smile: "You don't like Xiang Shanzhi. No wonder you don't care about my intention to give Xiang Shanzhi to you."

Li Yuanji said frankly: "It's not that I don't look down on Xiang Shanzhi. Since my sister has decided to help me, no matter whether my sister's people are under my sister's command or under my command, they are all my help. My sister's people have been enlisted by me."
