This prince, it doesn't matter if you don't do it!

Feng Ang frowned slightly after leaving the palace and returning to his mansion.

Although he holds a high position and is like a local emperor in Lingnan, he is far away from the power center of the Tang Dynasty and his understanding of many things is really not as good as those of Changsun Wuji.

Just like the Murong Ge they mentioned just now, it was the first time he heard this name. What insights could he have?

"Aye, does your Majesty have a specific strategy for the southern expedition today?" At this moment, Feng Zhidai came in after hearing that Feng Ang had returned.

This time Li Ernanzheng brought him over.

It's not that he took a fancy to Feng Zhidai's talent, but after so many years, Feng Zhidai had lived in Chang'an like a proton, which was considered his duty.

In addition, this guy had been able to stick to his true feelings despite the wooing of the nobles before, so he brought him over during this southern expedition. Not only did he return home in glory, but he also allowed them to get together with his father and son.

Hearing what Feng Zhidai said, Feng Ang asked without answering: "You have been in Chang'an for so many years, do you know anything about Murong Ge?"

"Murong Ge?" Feng Zhidai was slightly stunned when he heard this. He didn't know why his Aye suddenly asked about Murong Ge, "I know this man. I heard he was Murong Fuyun's youngest son. Li Yuanjing, the then King of Zhao When plotting to Tu Yuhun, Murong Fuyun placed his youngest son, who had never shown his face, in the Qiuci tribe in order to leave a root for Tu Yuhun.

Not to mention, he really lost his life because of this. If King Qiuci hadn't jumped out on his own, no one would have known that Murong Fuyun had such a little son.

Of course, some people say that this Murong Ge is not Murong Fuyun's youngest son at all, but that King Qiuci wanted to restore his country, so he created such a person.

However, these have not been confirmed. "

There are really different opinions about Murong Ge's identity, and Feng Zhidai only heard about it.

"Why didn't you write a letter to tell my father about such important news?" Feng An immediately became a little angry when he heard that Feng Zhidai knew this Murong Ge fairly well.

If he had known this news earlier, at least he wouldn't be so embarrassed today.

But when Feng Zhidai heard this, he was stunned and said, "Have you mentioned it in your family book?"

This time it was Feng An's turn to be stunned on the spot, he had no impression at all.

"Have you mentioned it before?" After thinking about it, Feng An's mind was still confused. If it had been mentioned before, he couldn't have no impression at all.

Feng Zhidai was also a little confused when he saw his father like this.

Looking at his father's reaction, it was as if he had never read his family letters. If he had really read them, he would definitely not be like this.

But the problem is, I clearly mentioned it in my family letter.

This means that his family letters have either been intercepted or transferred.

Thinking of this, Feng Zhidai felt a chill in his heart.

Who, who would intercept his family letters?

Feng Ang obviously reacted at this moment, and laughed dryly and said: "Forget it, let's not talk about it, this Murong Ge is just a clown."

There are only a few people who can intercept Feng Zhidai's family letters. At this moment, he is unwilling to struggle with this issue, especially in front of Feng Zhidai.

Feng Zhidai was certainly not a fool. He would have never guessed who would take action against his family letter. He immediately asked, "Aye suddenly mentioned Murong Ge, but why?"

After successfully changing the topic, Feng An immediately briefly introduced what happened today to his eldest son.

He couldn't believe it when he heard that Murong Ge actually sneaked into the Ming Dynasty.

"How dare he?" Feng Zhidai said with a surprised look on his face, "No matter whether his identity is true or false, as long as he appears in the Ming Dynasty, it will be a walking military merit!"

"So, there must be someone in the Ming Dynasty who can support him and even protect him. Now that His Majesty is marching south and the King of Shu is overseeing the country, it seems that the battle to seize the direct line has inevitably begun."

Speaking of this, Feng An sighed and said, "Since ancient times, that position has been bloody. It is really a gift that His Majesty can take you with him this time."

"It is indeed a gift." Feng Zhidai also nodded with deep approval and said, "If you still stay in Chang'an now, it will be difficult to be alone in this battle for the right to inherit the throne, but after all, your Majesty has tried his best this time. A little harder."

"Are you using too much force?" Feng Ang said with a smile upon hearing this, "You still underestimate our Majesty. No matter what the result is, Your Majesty will be the winner of the benefits. At least, Your Majesty will not lose."

"Huh?" Feng Zhidai was a little puzzled and said, "But everyone in the world knows that His Majesty's move to the south is to make room for those two people, so that they can have a free fight, regardless of winning or losing. , His Majesty won only benefits, but reputation..."

"Haha..." Feng Ang laughed when he heard this, "Let's not say that our Majesty doesn't care about reputation, why don't you take a look at it, why did His Majesty lead Zheng Guogong to the south? You know, what he said in the hall at that time , not to mention confiscating the family and exterminating the clan, a white silk is indispensable, right? What is the result?

Didn't he just go out with the army as a guilty person?

As long as Your Majesty does not kill Wei Zheng, no matter how the two fight in the future, it will not affect His Majesty's reputation, because Your Majesty has already made it clear that everything is just those two who insist on pursuing that position.

Mr. Wei, you have finally solved a big problem for Your Majesty.

To this day, my father still can't tell whether Wei Gong's words in the Tai Chi Palace were for His Majesty, or for the one who used his body to play chess. "

After saying that, Feng Ang also looked confused.

"Aye means that what Duke Wei did before actually fulfilled His Majesty?" Feng Zhidai was not a fool. Hearing his father's words, he immediately reacted, "Before His Majesty's southern expedition, put that layer of The window paper was pierced and His Majesty was taken out instead?"

Nodding, Feng An said: "As long as Wei Gong does not die, the world will doubt whether His Majesty instigated Wei Gong to do all this.

The purpose was to warn the brothers, but judging from the current situation, at least King Shu would not listen to this warning.

In fact, it is understandable that when faced with the temptation of that position, some people would shrink back because of a mere warning.

In short, Your Majesty will not lose this time.

Either cut off the increasingly powerful Crown Prince lineage, or disintegrate the elite families such as Cui and Wang. Regardless of the outcome, Your Majesty will be able to eliminate a major concern. "

"That being the case, our Feng family will have to fight to the death in this southern expedition!" Feng Zhidai said immediately after hearing this.

"It's natural. At this time, it's not just my Feng family who will do their best, you can see, guys like Changsun, Yuchi, and Li Jing will also do their best!

After avoiding the conflict between those two people, if we want to protect ourselves, there is only two words we can do, loyalty to the king!

No matter if you come back this time, my father is going to take all the sons of the Feng family with His Majesty in this southern expedition. When the time comes, you will guard the Duke's Mansion and be responsible for raising food and all logistical matters for the army.

Remember, our Feng family is no longer a royal family, and the eldest son system will not be broken.

Taking this opportunity, my father will definitely give you an explanation. "

The ancestors of the Feng family also had a glorious history and were part of the Northern Yan royal family.

However, this kind of ancestral nobility is really not uncommon in the Tang Dynasty. The group of people in the Tang Dynasty have many emperors in their ancestors.

There has never been an emperor, so the ancestor must have been a high-ranking official.

On the contrary, there are only a few people who are truly from a humble background.

"The child will definitely live up to Aye's expectations." Feng Zhidai heard this and quickly bowed and saluted.

He knew what this meant.

……

On the other side, in Chang'an, Li Ke had actually received the news a long time ago.

But such is his character that he has been unable to come up with a specific plan.

He was the one talking about being indecisive.

"Your Highness, if we don't respond to Ming's move, it will definitely allow him to take advantage of it. At this time, it's time to take action!" Zheng Xu persuaded from the side.

He really wished that Li Ke would order the army to raid Riyue Mountain now. Li Chengqian would be offended to death anyway, so the best result at this time would be to kill Li Chengqian.

Even though several of them have already started cooperating with Li Chengqian under Wang Renyou's help, but what does that count? Not to mention that they just started cooperating, even if they have been cooperating for many years, driven by interests, they don't care.

"But this move was done by Uncle Wang. How can I, the king, attack my Uncle Wang?" Li Ke hesitated.

He had a pretty good relationship with Li Yuanjing before. After all, he was deeply favored by Li Yuan at the beginning. However, after Li Yuanjing went to the northwest, the two of them had less contact.

"I'm afraid King Zhao has surrendered to that person now." Quan Wanji heard this and said, "Otherwise, as far as King Zhao is concerned, how would he dare to provoke the Tang Dynasty? If we do nothing this time, we will allow King Zhao to expel us from the Tang Dynasty. People, how can I save the dignity of the Tang Dynasty? Furthermore, when Changsun Wuji and Yuchi Jingde were around, why didn’t he do this?

Now, Wang Renyou and Liu Shuyi have done this as soon as they took office. Their intentions are already obvious! "

"Why is he still King Zhao?" Zheng Xu said with disdain, "Since he established his own royal court, he is no longer the King Zhao of our Tang Dynasty!

Now that he dared to do this, it was clear that he did it deliberately because His Highness was easy to bully and he had Da Ming's support behind him!

After all, he was just the boxer pushed out to compete with His Highness in the ring. "

Hearing Zheng Xu's words, Li Ke's face became even more ugly. He actually understood that Li Yuanjing's identity was similar to his, and they were both chess pieces.

The real people who hold the son are his father and brother.

In other words, Li Chengqian didn't look down on him at all...

"In this way, if you send an envoy to the Zhao court first, even if you want to fight, you must be polite first and then attack." Li Ke said.

Hearing this, Quan Wanji also nodded. He actually agreed with this. After all, he was a traditional scholar: "Your Highness, you might as well ask me to personally go to the Imperial Court of Zhao as an envoy. By the way, I also want to find out what Murong Ge's back-up plan is. If he dares to Sneak into the Ming Dynasty at this time."

"That's fine. If Chang Shi goes there in person, I will feel relieved." Li Ke nodded immediately.

The person he trusts most now is Quan Wanji.

"If you really want to send troops to attack Zhao Wangting, you can actually ask the King of Hejian County for his opinion." At this moment, the Cui family man smiled and said, "After all, before the expedition, Your Majesty ordered the King of Hejian County to assist His Highness in supervising the country. Now that the Imperial Court of Great Zhao has humiliated me, the High Kingdom of Heaven, what should I do as the Prince of the Tang Dynasty?

It would be of great benefit to us if we could win this person over. "

This person's name is Cui Hu, Shaoqing of Dali Temple, and he is also the current spokesperson of the Cui family in Chang'an.

"That's true." Lu Zhengju said with a smile, "For other matters, the prince may not be able to control him, but when it comes to the national system, it is an opportunity."

However, when Li Ke heard what the two said, he shook his head and said, "How can it be so simple? My uncle, the king, has never participated in this kind of thing. He didn't participate in it back then. Now he is expected to participate. What's more, impossible."

He had no illusions about Li Xiaogong.

That person, as long as he is impartial, no matter who sits in that position in the future, it is impossible to blame him. Besides, he has already achieved the highest position he can achieve. From the power of the dragon, others need it. Does he need it?

That being the case, why bother asking for trouble?

"It all depends on people." Lu Zhengju said with a smile, "It doesn't necessarily mean that we need that person to express his position. In short, to defend the honor and disgrace of our Tang Dynasty, that person can be used.

Moreover, everyone in the Ming Dynasty knew how to push out a King Zhao, so why shouldn't we take advantage of the situation and push out the King of Hejian County?

That person may refuse other things, but that person may not be so easy to refuse this matter. "

"That's the truth." Quan Wanji nodded when he heard the words, "His Majesty kept the prince in Chang'an, but he also wanted to guard against His Highness. If this man can be sent to conquer Zhao at this time, for us, That's a good thing.

But Lu Yushi, you can contact his brother when you have time. I heard that his brother has taken root in Riyue Mountain now. If we can get his help, we will be like a fish in water. "

The brother he was talking about was naturally Lu Zhengqing.

Although Lu Zhengju and Lu Zhengqing are not biological brothers, they are also cousins. It was precisely because Lu Zhengqing went to Riyue Mountain that he entered Chang'an.

Hearing Quan Wanji's words, Lu Zhengju shook his head and said: "I'm afraid it's going to be extremely difficult. I don't know what my brother has done. He has little contact with his family now. I have sent several letters from the clan, but there have been very few responses." Not much."

Speaking of Lu Zhengqing, he also looked helpless.

Of course, the Lu family is happy to see this happen, and it even has the meaning of adult beauty.

If they end up in trouble, the Lu family will still have blood to continue.

Sometimes, for the sake of family inheritance, they really do anything.

After hearing their words, Li Ke thought for a while and said: "In this case, I will ask someone to invite Uncle Wang to a banquet tomorrow. During the banquet, I will test Uncle Wang's tone again."

"Actually, there is no need to investigate." Zheng Xu said, "His Highness only needs to tell you everything about the Great Zhao Wangting, and express His Highness's difficulties along the way, and leave the rest to that person to make his own decision. .”

Li Ke nodded and said no more.

Everyone was discussing Murong Ge again. Although they didn't know much about this person, and they didn't want to know about him before, but now that this guy has sneaked into the Ming Dynasty, they had to get to know this guy who they didn't like in the past.

It is what it is, and it has always been so.

If you have no ability, no one will look down on you!

However, the conclusions they reached were similar to those reached by Li Er.

The only difference is that Li Er didn't care, and Li Chengqian even ignored it, but they were the only ones who cared extremely much.

If Murong Ge was really confident, they wouldn't mind cooperating with him.

Hearing their argument, Quan Wanji immediately became angry: "How can this be so! We can use his identity to put pressure on Ming Dynasty, but can we really help it recover?"

After all, that is our territory of the Tang Dynasty. What is the difference between you doing this and betraying the country and seeking glory!

The Ming Dynasty can only be the Ming Dynasty of the Tang Dynasty! How can it be the Ming Dynasty of Tuyuhun! "

"Don't worry about the long history, it's just a temporary measure." Lu Zhengju and others also looked helpless. Quan Wanji was good at everything, but he was too rigid.

But how could Quan Wanji not be annoyed?

He supported Li Ke not for his own selfish reasons, but simply because he felt that the prince Li Chengqian was not doing his job properly and did not want to rely on traditional methods to ascend to Dabao. Instead, he continued to strengthen himself and used force and even influence to gain the position of Dabao.

This deviated from the sage books he had read for so many years.

If Li Chengqian is now willing to give up the Ming Dynasty and return to the Tang Dynasty to sit in the East Palace honestly, and Li Ke dares to have any thoughts about that position, he must be the first to scold Li Ke bloody.

But stereotypes are stereotypes. Like Li Er and others, he consistently believed that the huge land laid down by Li Chengqian was the boundary of the Tang Dynasty.

Even if it is not called Datang now, it will definitely be called Datang in the future!

So when he heard that Zheng Xu and others were discussing how to cooperate with Murong Ge and attack Ming Dynasty from inside and outside on the pretext of helping Murong Ge restore his country, he couldn't bear it.

Isn't this equivalent to seeking cooperation with others at the expense of Taohe County? After the event is completed, let people establish themselves as kings in Taohe County?

"Murong Ge can only use it, but he will not give up an inch of Datang's land!" Quan Wanji said angrily.

Hearing his words, Zheng Xu and others looked helpless.

After a long time, Cui Hu said: "Chang Shi has misunderstood. How can the land of the Tang Dynasty be ceded to others? We are just cooperating with them under the guise of this. Once the matter is completed, we will destroy them.

How big of a storm could a little Murong Ge create? "

"What a villain is doing!" Quan Wanji looked disdainful.

Well, there’s nothing I can say.

Everyone shut up and said both good and bad things. This old man was just stubborn.

Of course, they were actually a little embarrassed. In the eyes of any Tang Dynasty official, although the Ming Dynasty was temporarily called the Ming Dynasty, it was only temporary after all, and it would definitely be the land of the Tang Dynasty.

This was the thought of almost every Tang Dynasty official.

But some people are waiting for him to return to Chang'an and visit Dabao, when Tang and Ming Dynasties will be unified.

Some people want to kill that person, help him unify Tang and Ming Dynasty in advance, achieve supreme achievements, and take advantage of the opportunity to ascend to Dabao.

No matter what kind of thoughts you have, in short, there is no doubt that the surname of that land is Tang!

"Let's put this issue aside for now." Seeing that everyone was silent, Li Ke said immediately, "The top priority now is the Royal Court of Zhao. While Chang Shi has already made preparations, you should also prepare one or two.

If a war really breaks out, you will have to provide food and grass for everyone. After all, my father is marching south and he has to deal with the imperial court of Zhao. The imperial court will be in a tight situation. "

"This is natural." Lu Zhengju nodded immediately after hearing this.

The gentry dare not say anything else, but there is really no shortage of food and people.

The Fanyang Lu family alone has tens of thousands of tenant households!

I woke up late last night, and it was already half past eleven when I woke up...
