Datang: What's wrong with my fief being a billion points larger?

Chapter 43 Feng Ang’s choice, arriving at the destination
Li Yuanji seemed to know this as well and was already waiting at the table with two wine glasses on it.

"Mingda, please sit down."

Feng Ang walked straight to Li Yuanji, sat down, picked up the wine glass and drank it in one gulp. Li Yuanji poured wine for Feng Ang again, and Feng Ang was flattered.

"Your Majesty, I can do it myself. How can I ask Your Majesty to pour wine for me?"

Li Yuanji did not speak, but his hand did not stop pouring wine. Feng Ang drank another glass before he slowly spoke.

“Your Majesty, when I received the first letter from you, I had already arrived in Cangwu, accompanied by a hundred thousand soldiers. But I was a little hesitant at the time because my brother Feng Xuan participated in the rebellion.

I have heard rumors about the king, and I am afraid that if I go there, the king will be angry and kill me, so I have been waiting in Cangwu.

During the banquet, Your Majesty's words about the attack, whether Your Majesty believes it or not, I did not participate in it, but I know where those thieves with nearly two thousand former Sui-style weapons came from.

These were awarded to the Feng family by the former Emperor of Sui. There are a total of 10,000 sets, of which my younger brother Feng Xuan has 3,000 sets. The ones I own are almost all damaged, and the rest are military equipment I made myself to equip the army.

Feng Xuan has hardly ever used the troops equipped with this set of weapons, and has kept them well hidden. Those nearly 2,000 men must be from the Feng family."

Li Yuanji just listened quietly without saying a word.

Feng Ang drank another glass of wine before continuing, "I didn't believe that Your Majesty could come to Cangwu in person at first, but it was not until I saw Your Majesty that I believed that Your Majesty was not like the rumors.

Ever since my family Feng married the Xian family, I, the Feng family, have been determined to work hard for stability and peace. Although the Tang Dynasty has just been established, I have never thought of rebelling against it.

Now Lingnan has become the king's fiefdom. I and my subordinates are all willing to obey the king's orders.

There is only one king in Lingnan, and that is the Great King!"

As Li Yuanji listened to Feng Ang's words, an inexplicable smile gradually appeared on his face. He believed what Feng Ang said, but not completely. He was not a fool, and he would not believe everything others said.

But now he just wants Feng Ang to have an attitude. Now that he has the attitude, it is enough. As for whether Feng Ang has selfish motives, even if he obeys orders, whether he obeys orders from Li Yuanji or from the Tang Dynasty, it is unknown.

But these are not the focus of Li Yuanji's attention. He has figured it out. What can these people do even if they say they are loyal to him?
The area he actually controls is still just Leizhou. When he develops on his own, if it still submits, then it can be considered his real territory.

Li Yuanji drank the wine in the glass and looked at Feng Ang.

"I believe what Mingda said."

Feng Ang looked at Li Yuanji with red eyes, and Li Yuanji's voice continued.

"I know Mingda's intentions and I understand them. I will be going back tomorrow. My destination is Leizhou. You will still be in charge of the affairs here. I have only one request: there should be no rebellion in Lingnan. I don't care about anything else.

In addition, since you said that the attack on me was caused by the Feng family, then you will be responsible for it. As for the mastermind behind the scenes, you can deal with him however you say. Just let me know the result when you get it.

Now I have nothing to do, and I don't want to pursue it too much. I can see the Feng family's efforts in Lingnan. As long as it doesn't happen again in the future, it's fine."

Li Yuanji had no choice. Feng Ang's crime was already exposed. The murderer was from the Feng family. Besides Feng Ang, the other murderer was Feng Xuan. If Feng Ang didn't do it himself, then it must have been Feng Xuan who did it.

Although he had no evidence, it could only be Feng Xuan who did it. As for how to deal with Feng Xuan, now he could only let Feng Ang decide for himself. Who made him not strong enough? After all, he was Feng Ang's brother. Although the two of them did not get along, just like Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin. After hearing this, Feng Ang stood up and saluted Li Yuanji.

"Your Majesty's grace, I will remember it in my heart. Please rest assured, I will bring Feng Xuan and his son to you for you to deal with!

In addition, I have another request. Your Majesty has just arrived in Lingnan, and you need someone who is nimble and skillful. Although my eldest son, Xun, is not talented, he is honest and upright, and knows a little bit of boxing. Your Majesty, can you bring him with you? He can also do some small things for you and protect your safety. "

Li Yuanji looked at Feng Ang seriously, and after a while, he suddenly laughed.

"If your son is willing, let him get ready and set off together tomorrow. As for Feng Xuan and his son, I've said that it's up to you to deal with them. I won't get involved. Just give me a result in the end."

Feng Ang chatted with Li Yuanji for a long time. It was not until late at night that Feng Ang walked out of Li Yuanji's room.

On the second day, outside Cangwu City, Li Yuanji was saying goodbye to Feng Ang. Although he was puzzled why Feng Zhixun did not come, Li Yuanji did not ask.

After walking for a distance, Li Yuanji saw a large army lined up in front of him. Xie Shufang immediately led two thousand soldiers to line up and prepare to meet the enemy.

A rider walked out from the army in front and came in front of Li Yuanji.

"I, Feng Zhixun, pay my respects to the king. I am here with five thousand soldiers. I will follow the king forever and will never change my mind. Please, king, take over the army!"

Li Yuanji's eyes fixed, and his heart was shaken. When the four words "never change until death" were uttered, their meaning instantly changed.

At this moment, Li Yuanji admired Feng Ang a little. He was really willing to spend so much money. Not only did he have his eldest son, but he also had these five thousand soldiers, all wearing full armor and equipped with complete weapons. Li Yuanji knew very well how much money it would cost to build such a large army.

Among the armored soldiers in Feng Ang's hands, at least half of them were occupied here, or even more. Now Feng Ang was willing to give them to him and even handed over his eldest son to him.

Li Yuanji looked at Feng Zhixun and said solemnly, "Zhixun, get up. Your father told me last night that you will be in charge of this army from now on. Now, follow me and set off."

Upon hearing this, Feng Zhixun stood up immediately.

"The last general takes command!"

Then the army started to set out, with two thousand people coming and seven thousand people returning.

On the way, Yang Shu became Li Yuanji's way of passing the time, and he kept getting to know the relationship between the local cave chiefs from Yang Shu.

Finally Li Yuanji realized that the smaller the number of people a cave chieftain had, the more courageous they were to fight, because the bigger ones had been won over, and only the small cave chieftains like them just wanted to live their own lives. When someone came to recruit them, they were unwilling and had to fight with them, which led to their current situation.

Li Yuanji also breathed a sigh of relief. He almost thought that the people of Guangxi were so fierce at this time. Especially the scene where the women came to fight his army with wooden sticks, Li Yuanji could remember it clearly.

After more than a month, Li Yuanji finally arrived at the junction of Luozhou and Leizhou. As long as he took a few more steps forward, he would reach the territory of Leizhou.

Li Yuanji was full of emotion. He finally came to Leizhou and he finally completed the system's task. Next, it was his turn to show his skills from Leizhou.
