Man Tanghong

Chapter 226 Spreading Rumors
If you worry too much about things that may not happen, it is unfounded worry.

"Just do as I tell you, I will make my own decisions."

"Well..."

"..."

Li Yuanji gave an order, Ling Jing didn't say anything more, bowed and left the room.

After Ling Jing left, Li Yuanji ordered the guards guarding the door to go to Pingcheng Hou's Mansion tomorrow morning to summon Yu Wenbao.

Li Yuanji not only wants to install his own people in Xuanwu, Anli, and Jianjian, but also do other things.

Other things are a bit out of the question, and they are not easy to be known by outsiders, so they can only be handed over to Yu Wenbao.

Asking Yu Wenbao to do the dirty work like a marquis is actually a bit overkill.

But Li Yuanji can't help it. Right now, under his command, the only one who is really willing to help him with the dirty work and can carry out his words to the end is Yu Wenbao.

In this regard, Li Yuanji was a little envious of Li Shimin.

Li Shimin rose early enough, and he is also a rare commander, with a large group of people following him.

Fang Xuanling, Changsun Wuji and others were devoted to him and were willing to help him with any dirty work.

He also selected hundreds of people from the Xuanjia Army to form a team of hundreds of cavalry to do all kinds of dirty work for him.

Li Yuanji only has one Yuwenbao, and he can only use Yuwenbao.

After giving orders to the guards, Li Yuanji lay lazily on the couch and read books for a while.

Yang Miaoyan brought Wang Ruan, Ajiu, and some food into the house.

Li Yuanji's eyes wandered around Yang Miaoyan, Wang Ruan, and Ajiu, always feeling that something was wrong.

Because Yang Miaoyan has been taking Wang Ruan and A Jiu with her two daughters these days.

From time to time, Wang Ruan would help Yang Miaoyan to bed, so it was understandable to stay by Yang Miaoyan's side.

But Ah Jiu was just a little girl, and Li Yuanji couldn't bear to poison her, so she never served at bedtime, nor would she help Yang Miaoyan at bedtime.

So what did Yang Miaoyan bring her by his side?
Li Yuanji always felt that Yang Miaoyan seemed to be cultivating his own "small team", but unfortunately there was no evidence.

In order to get some news out of Yang Miaoyan's mouth, Li Yuanji shocked Fugang after simply eating something.

Yang Miaoyan was forced to confess and be lenient by hanging on and not saying anything when he was in a dilemma.

After Yang Miaoyan explained, Li Yuanji learned that Yang Miaoyan was indeed cultivating his own "small team".

In order to make her "small team" more pure and easier to control, she did not include any children in the house, but carefully selected some who she liked and listened to her, and prepared one by one. Send it to Li Yuanji's bed.

Li Yuanji was shocked.

This is something that would never be dreamed of in future generations, but it has become a reality in Datang.

According to Yang Miaoyan's account, this kind of thing was not initiated by her, but a measure commonly used in the back houses of dignitaries.

In other words, even if the dignitaries of the Tang Dynasty were not lustful, their wives would turn them into lustful people.

Li Yuanji chatted with Yang Miaoyan all night about the secrets of the back house, and learned a lot about the dignitaries of the Tang Dynasty.

For example, Li Shimin likes to collect the wives of his enemies, but the wives of any enemies he defeats will soon appear in his harem.

For example, when a certain general goes out to war, he likes to take healthy women with him.If there is no healthy woman to accompany, sometimes cows will be used for work.

Li Yuanji was even more shocked. He chased and asked Yang Miaoyan all night, but he still couldn't find out the name of this bullshit brat.

……

The next day.

When Li Yuanji woke up, it was already noon.

Li Yuanji was the only one in the room.

Li Yuanji listened attentively to the faint chirping of various birds and animals coming from outside the house, the sound of falling water of varying severity, the chants of the men who built the manor, the rustling of the wind blowing the leaves and the bamboo forest, and his mind was more relaxed than ever.

He casually pulled up his inner lining, put it on his body, stepped outside the house, stretched his arms, and took a breath of fresh air.

"Cough cough cough..."

What came into his nostrils was a faint sour smell. Li Yuanji inhaled a little violently, so he coughed heavily.

"Your Highness, are you okay?"

Suddenly, Yu Wenbao's head appeared from the steps under Li Yuanji's feet.

Only then did Li Yuanji realize that there was someone under his feet.

That faint sour smell came from Yu Wenbao.

Li Yuanji heaved a sigh of relief, stared and asked, "What are you doing hiding here?"

Yu Wenbao was taken aback for a moment, and said in astonishment: "Didn't you send someone to summon your ministers?"

Li Yuanji gave Yu Wenbao a blank look, and said angrily: "I sent someone to call you over, because I have something to explain to you, not to let you come and act as a guard with me."

Li Yuanji is not Li Shimin, he has never killed his brother, nor bullied his own father. When he dreams back at midnight, he has no fear at all, so he doesn't need to find two murderous guys to be his door gods.

Yu Wenbao scratched embarrassingly, and said: "I'm afraid that when you want to see me, you won't find anyone."

Li Yuanji glanced at Yu Wenbao and said, "When you come later, just find a place where you can stay, and you don't need to be my guard."

After saying this, without waiting for Yu Wenbao to agree, he waved to Yu Wenbao.

Yu Wenbao ran up the steps with a few strides, took off his boots, and walked up to Li Yuanji.

Li Yuanji said to the others guarding the door: "Go down first."

The others bowed in unison, and after a promise, they retreated cleanly.

When Li Yuanji and Yu Wenbao were left at the door, Li Yuanji sat down on the floor, and Yu Wenbao sat beside him without saying a word.

Li Yuanji looked at the waterfall looming in the distance and the waves of trees blown up by the wind, and quietly said something that almost scared Yu Wenbao to death.

"Yu Wenbao... have you ever rebelled?"

Yu Wenbao stood up abruptly, his eyes widened.

Your Highness, are you out of your mind?
You want to discuss rebellion with the minister?

The country right now follows your surname, you want to rebel against your own family?

Li Yuanji raised his head and glanced at Yu Wenbao, and said contemptuously, "Excellence..."

Yu Wenbao scratched his head, said with a bitter face, "Your Highness, you dare to say such a thing, but I dare not say it."

Speaking of this, he shook his head like a rattle and quickly added, "I am not only afraid to speak, but also afraid to listen."

Li Yuanji said unexpectedly: "There are also things that you Yu Wenbao dare not say or listen to?"

Strange!

Are there times when the second pole is also afraid?
"Your Highness, Jiangshan belongs to your family. If I say or listen to such things, I will be sorry for you."

Yu Wenbao said seriously.

Li Yuanji froze for a moment, then nodded in agreement, "That's true..."

Li Yuanji waved his hand to Yu Wenbao, motioned Yu Wenbao to sit down, and said: "I'm not really discussing the rebellion with you, you don't have to be so nervous."

Yu Wenbao stared at Li Yuanji without saying a word.

Li Yuanji continued: "I need you to send a few people who have never returned to make something, bury it in the ground by the way, and then guide others to discover it, and finally spread it out."

Yu Wenbao blinked, feeling that his head was not enough.

Because he didn't understand what Li Yuanji said.

Seeing this, Li Yuanji asked, "Have you heard the story of Liu Bang beheading the white snake?"

Yu Wenbao stared slightly.

understood.

"His Highness... Your Highness wants to let the minister spread rumors?"

Li Yuanji nodded and said, "I want you to tell the world that my second brother will be the emperor."

Speaking of this, he specifically looked at Yu Wenbao and said, "I don't need to teach you how to do it, do you?"

Yu Wenbao was shocked, his head shook like a rattle.

Too many people have done this kind of thing in recent years. Yu Wenbao has heard and seen a lot, so he knows how to do it.

Yu Wenbao didn't understand why Li Yuanji did this, and he didn't want to ask, let alone know.

Because he felt that if Li Yuanji should let him know, he would definitely let him know, and if he shouldn't let him know, he shouldn't know.

"Then do it."

Li Yuanji smiled and waved to Yu Wenbao.

Yu Wenbao puffed up his chest all of a sudden, and shouted respectfully, "Here!"

Li Yuanji entrusted him with such a big and important matter, that is to trust him.

No matter how powerful Su Dingfang and others are, they are not as good as Li Yuanji's trust.

The shock in Yu Wenbao's heart gradually dissipated, replaced by a surge of courage to move forward.

Li Yuanji entrusted him with such an important matter, so he must handle it well.

After watching Yu Wenbao leave, Li Yuanji smiled meaningfully.

The reason why Li Yuanji did this was to force Li Jiancheng.

Although Li Jiancheng is now competing with Li Shimin, he has no edge at all.

Li Yuanji only saw that Li Shimin was attacking vigorously and Li Jiancheng was blindly defending.

It's not a problem to go on like this, we must put some pressure on Li Jiancheng, let Li Jiancheng show some edge as soon as possible.

Li Yi was fighting hard, waiting quietly for Li Jiancheng to greet him.

Yang Wenqian has been in Gyeongju for many years, and he is also waiting for Li Jiancheng to order him to recruit troops.

So we can't let people wait in vain.

……

After Li Yuanji explained everything, he climbed up to Jiulongtan Mountain and looked at the scenery.

There is a temple on Jiulongtan Mountain, and the monks in the temple expressed their warm welcome to Li Yuanji's temporary residence in Jiulongtan Mountain.

They felt that with such a wealthy and noble person as Li Yuanji living beside them, they could use this to quickly develop and expand the incense of their temple.

Li Yuanji was moved by their tenacity and striving spirit.

Then they ordered people to demolish their temple, and by the way, a large part of the monks in the temple were returned to vulgarity.

With a wave of Li Yuan's hand, the entire Jiulongtan Mountain became Li Yuanji's private land.

There is a lot of fertile soil at the foot of Jiulongtan Mountain, which urgently needs people to plant it.

Based on the principle of not wasting, Li Yuanji set up a home for the novice monks on the fertile soil at the foot of Jiulongtan Mountain.

By the way, two county magistrates from Fuguo County were recruited and asked them to provide official assignments for the novice monks as soon as possible.

The county magistrate of Wannian County was a wonderful person, and suggested that Li Yuanji should also return the aunts from the nearby Jingci Temple to vulgar life.

In this way, it just satisfies the marriage problem of the novice monks.

Then he was whipped by Li Yuanji.
