People in the early Tang Dynasty: I compete with Wu Zhao for the throne

Chapter 625 Yang schemes, Pei Yan is incompetent

In the lobby of the Governor's Mansion, Lai Jingye handed the urgent letter in his hand to Li Xuan, and at the same time said with a puzzled face: "More than a thousand soldiers from the Andong Governor's Mansion have withdrawn from Yangzhou to the east, and the follow-up army will return to Dengzhou within two months. Yang Zhuzhou."

"Oh!" Li Xuan took the official document and said in surprise, "This is much faster than my nephew originally expected."

"Not only that, but there are also Silla's envoys asking for crimes and the Japanese envoys arriving in Yangzhou at the same time. Dou Weng asked the prince to go north immediately and take up the post of Shaoqing of Honglu Temple to receive the envoys from the two countries." Lai Jingye's words made everyone present Everyone was very surprised.

Silla's pleading envoy, why is it the Silla pleading envoy?

They just sent back a Silla pleading envoy before, why did the people of Silla send another pleading envoy, could it be...

"Andong Zhenfu Ambassador Li Jinxing won three battles and three victories in Maixiao City, and Silla lost three battles and three defeats. No more entanglement, the army retreated, and King Wenwu sent envoys to plead guilty." Li Xuan read the official document in his hand, and at the same time He said with admiration: "Li Dudu acted resolutely, won three battles and three victories, defeated Silla and dared not entangle him again. As a result, the East Island was completely peaceful. "

"Your Majesty's majesty is mighty in all directions." All the people present were solemn at the same time, bowing their hands in the direction of Chang'an.

Hu Yu, the long history on the side, couldn't help asking: "Why did the Japanese envoys also come to Datang at the same time?"

"Perhaps it's because, when Anton's army was fighting against Silla's front line, the Japanese kingdom was a little uneasy." Li Xuan calmly pointed out the key point, and Hu Yu, Gao Ping, and Leng Lin were stunned.

Although Li Xuan said it lightly, the mystery in it was obvious at the first smell.

When the army of Anton was fighting against the front line of Silla, why was the Wa country so restless, and how did the king of Nanchang know about it?

A smart person only needs to think about Li Xuan's secret actions when he was in Hangzhou, and everything will be clear at a glance.

Li Xuan looked at the three people in front of him calmly, with a very calm expression.

Now that the Silla Pleading Envoy and the Wa State Envoy have arrived in Datang, the inside story will be known sooner or later, and there is no need to keep it secret.

Li Xuan stood up, bowed his hands respectfully to Lai Jingye and said: "Master, since Weng Dou is called, then Xuan will go back and prepare."

Lai Jingye solemnly raised his hand and said, "Nephew, please go ahead."

"Here!" Li Xuan bowed slightly, then turned around quickly, and was about to leave.

"My lord!" Gao Ping suddenly stopped Li Xuan, and when he saw Li Xuan turned around, he immediately cupped his hands and said, "I wonder if I can go to Yangzhou with my lord tomorrow?"

Li Xuan was slightly surprised, and said with some doubts: "This king is going to Yangzhou in a hurry, can everyone follow?"

"Didn't your lord go by boat?" Gao Ping was stunned for a moment.

Li Xuan smiled lightly and said: "Gao Zhanggu made a mistake. At this time, the northwest wind is blowing and the speed of the boat is very slow. Unless you go to sea and take a big boat, how can you rush to Yangzhou quickly. Now Yangzhou is in a hurry. I can only gallop on horseback."

"That's how it is." Gao Ping's face was full of pity. They were going to take prisoners, so they couldn't gallop on horseback.

Li Xuan cupped his hands and said: "If there is nothing else, Xuan will take my leave first, the Navy still has many matters to be arranged."

"My lord, please go ahead." Gao Ping cupped his hands, then watched Li Xuan leave, and finally turned around to look at Lai Jingye, cupped his hands and said: "Master, the subordinates have also gone back to make arrangements."

"En!" Lai Jingye nodded slightly, then watched Gao Ping and Leng Lin leave.

After everyone disappeared in the lobby, he sighed softly: "It's really scary for the younger generation, and it's a long-term plan!"

……

The river waves are monstrous, and the water vapor fills the air.

On the wharf by the Qiantang River, Li Xuan rode in slowly, and a crowd of Qianniuwei followed closely behind him.

The door was closed tightly immediately, and all prying eyes were blocked.

Li Xuan rode around the entire school grounds, some of the [-] elite soldiers were training, and some were resting.

These people are the soldiers he recruited from many places in Wuyue in the past two months, and they are all from ordinary families.

Those who were born in the sidelines of the aristocratic family and who are interested in military service have already gone to Silla in the previous batch of Dongdao reinforcements, and now it is not known how many people will return in the end.

Back in the courtyard on the west side, Zhou Gan immediately arranged for people to be on duty and pack up things at the same time.

Li Xuan's Deputy Envoy of Jiangnan Daochoubing is an imperial envoy, wherever he is, Zhou Gan will be there.

The same is true for the Jinwu Guard. Now that the Silla Pleading Envoy and the Wa State Envoy arrived in Yangzhou at the same time, they also need to rush to Yangzhou to serve as guards.

Standing at the door, Yu Ze saw Li Xuan returning, and immediately cupped his hands: "My lord!"

Li Xuan nodded, and then asked, "How's the situation?"

"Reporting to the lord, Dudu Yuan has ordered Captain Yan to come to Hangzhou to temporarily replace the lord and lead the new army." Yu Ze's voice was very low.

"Yeah!" Li Xuan nodded, walked into the study, walked to the desk, Li Xuan looked up at Yu Ze, and said with an excited look: "Uncle Laishi has promised me that I will write a letter to Lai Shilang. shot."

Yu Ze frowned slightly, and said in a low voice: "My lord, will there really be such an opportunity?"

"There should be." Li Xuan smiled slightly, and said with a strange smile on his face: "The struggle of the center is far more intense than I imagined. Pei Shangshu showed his flaws this time, and I am afraid that many people will stare at him. Live him, if he can't handle it properly..."

Li Xuan lowered her head, picked up a secret letter under the table case, and put it on the table case.

Looking at the secret letter, Li Xuan said softly: "What the Empress hates the most is not that a person is bad, but that a person is incompetent. In this case, Pei Yan has already lost the upper hand. If he wants to settle the matter, I am afraid it is necessary Fight with those who want to take on his opponent."

"Then Pei Shangshu won?" Yu Ze looked at Li Xuan with some puzzlement.

Li Xuan smiled and shook her head: "Wrong."

"Where is wrong?"

"It's all wrong." Li Xuan stood up, walked to the brazier, threw the secret letter in his hand into the brazier, watched the fire quickly ignited in the brazier, Li Xuan said softly: "In this season, How can we fight, His Majesty's Western Expedition is imminent, whoever dares to provoke a fight will inevitably suffer the most severe suppression from His Majesty, and the Queen of Heaven will also do the same."

Yu Ze was stunned for a moment.

In today's Tang Dynasty, the Western Expedition to Tibet is the overall situation. The imperial court has been preparing for the Western Expedition to Tubo for more than five years. Anyone who does not take the overall situation into consideration and disturbs the imperial court at this time is the emperor who hates it the most of.

"In half a month, it will be the Zhengdan Grand Court Meeting. Your Majesty's selection of the season is really ingenious?" Yu Ze couldn't help admiring.

"There is also this letter." Li Xuan looked at the secret letter that was gradually burning to ashes, and said softly: "If the news of the arrival of the Silla envoys and Japanese envoys hadn't been delivered in advance, we wouldn't have started to attack Pei so soon. means of inflammation."

Yu Ze stood on one side, bowed his head in silence.

In a few days, they had already received the news that Anton's first batch of retreating troops had returned to Yangzhou, so they immediately planned to arrest Wenyi without any hesitation, and then used Wenyi to find Wenxu.

However, no one knew that Wen Yi and Wen Xu had always been under their control, but they hadn't been arrested.

For Wenyi's remnants of the Wusheng sect, their hidden strongholds on Tianmu had already been completely destroyed. Food, drinking water, clothing, everything was obtained from the people in the mountains.

As long as a trace is revealed, the secret guards of the Nanchang Palace will follow closely.

As for Wen Xu, not to mention Li Xuan, Gao Ping, Leng Lin from the Ministry of Punishment, many aristocratic families from the Hangzhou Mansion, and the guards from the Governor's Mansion in Hangzhou, none of them gave up on the hunt for Wen Xu.

He showed his feet several times, and after a certain time, the secret guards of the Nanchang Palace followed him closely.

Later, although Wen Xu escaped into Li Jingye's other courtyard and tried to escape several times, he was always driven back and could only hide there until today.

"That's it for the matter of Hangzhou. The navy is entrusted to Captain Yan Du, so I can rest assured that the rest is about the matter of Wuzhou." Li Xuan could not help but sigh softly.

"My lord is still worried that after leaving this time, I won't be able to come back again?" Yu Ze saw through Li Xuan's true thoughts at a glance.

Li Xuan nodded slightly, and then said: "This time before going to Yangzhou, this king will serve as the inspector of Honglu Temple to entertain the envoys of the Silla and the Japanese. According to the decree, let this king bring these two people back to Beijing to participate in the Zhengdan court meeting."

"The Zhengdan Dynasty, when all nations come to the dynasty, Silla and Wa are indeed indispensable." Yu Ze nodded in agreement.

"As for the next year." Li Xuan showed a slight wry smile on his face, and said softly, "After the year, it will be the matter of hiding the crown princess, Uncle Yu, do you think my nephew will be lucky enough to escape?"

Li Xuan had been involved in the discovery of the Concubine Zheng's back then, but now that the development has continued, it's no wonder that the Empress would let him go.

Yu Ze also shook his head with a wry smile.

Li Xuan's expression suddenly became solemn: "The matter of Wuzhou, everything will be carried out according to the earlier arrangement, what should be withdrawn, what should be hidden, once the king leaves Wuzhou, some people may be restless, so we should pull out the target first. Let's talk."

"Here!"

Li Xuan waved at Yu Ze and said, "Uncle Yu, go and rest. You will be in Hangzhou for two days, and then lead the official ship to set off. I think the imperial decree will arrive when you arrive in Yangzhou."

"Here!" Li Xuan cupped his hands, and then retreated slightly.

After a long time, Li Xuan waved his hand, and the whole room was immediately plunged into darkness.

At this moment, a black shadow stood out from the corner.

Li Xuan asked blankly: "How is the household registration of Wuyue and the six prefectures going?"

"The records in the city and surrounding towns have been roughly transcribed and sorted out."

"Very good." Li Xuan breathed out lightly, then spread his hands, a black ball bounced from Li Xuan's hand to Hei Ying's, and Li Xuan said in a deep voice: "This medicine, guarantee After Wenxu entered Hangu Pass, it was delivered to him."

"Here!" The black figure didn't even ask what the medicine was, and after taking it, it slowly disappeared.

……

In the dark secret room, two figures entered one after another, and then sat down back to back.

One of them handed out a thick book, and said in a deep voice: "This is what you want, a summary of all the whereabouts and words that the King of Nanchang can collect within three months in Yangzhou...I can tell you, that man The King of Nanchang did not show any flaws."

"It's not a bad thing." The person who received the book had a gloomy voice. He put away the thick book, and then said in a low voice: "As for the new recruits of the navy, please pay more attention to Guan Junjun."

"Understood." After Guan Mi finished speaking, he nodded slightly, got up and left immediately.

At this time, another figure walked out from the other side. There was a dark alley in front of him, and a large carriage blocking the road behind him.

Under the moonlight, this person was Leng Lin.

On the high wall far away, a black figure watched all this expressionlessly.
