Late Tang Dynasty: I

Chapter 38
"Wang Jiedu envoy, I want to reward all the soldiers, why not?"

"It's all right for the emperor to reward the army, but His Majesty is busy with state affairs, and some minor matters are left to the ministers."

"I'm fine." Li Ye continued: "Wang Jiedu's envoy came at a good time. I just received hundreds of Shanghao Tan sheep as tribute from Shuofang. I slaughtered a few of them today, and I can share them with Aiqing."

His Majesty the Emperor refused. Wang Xingyu was very anxious. He didn't know the court's intentions. Wang Xingyu felt that it would not be a good thing. He hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, there are all rough people in the army. I am afraid that I will frighten the holy car. Please take it back!"

Li Ye smiled and said: "Oh, Aiqing, I thought Aiqing's soldiers were as loyal to the monarch and the country as Aiqing. Today Aiqing is so considerate, I naturally feel the same way, I promise you, if there is any rude behavior, I will forgive you wait innocent."

"His Majesty……"

Li Ye waved his hand: "My heart has been decided, Ai Qing, don't refuse any more."

After Li Ye finished speaking, he felt uneasy. This matter was started in a hurry, and it is of great benefit to the country, but after careful consideration, there are still many problems. Fearing that something will happen, he hurriedly approached, shook Wang Xingyu's hand and said: "I see that Aiqing is very sad. Hi, I have tasted famous and famous scholars, and they all like to drink at a high level. Love you and I, why not follow suit."

Without waiting for Wang Xingyu's reply, he ordered the left and right to move the roasted lamb to the city wall and led Wang Xingyu to the west gate wall.Move to the Hu stool table and fill it with royal wine.

"Ai Qing, how about trying the royal wine?"

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Wang Xingyu drank a full glass, but at this moment, he couldn't taste the taste of the wine. He could see the soldiers and horses below the city, and naturally his subordinates could also see the figure of his own general.

The city of Wannian County is not very high, so it would be fine if he jumped directly, but His Majesty the Emperor didn't seem to want to give this chance, as there were already guards around him.

What the emperor wanted to do, Wang Xingyu couldn't figure it out more and more. There must be something here that he didn't know.

Wang Xingyu was very remorseful in his heart, he jumped in without inquiring clearly, after all, he was blinded by unprecedented interests, but in this world, how many people can see through.

Including His Majesty the Emperor who changed the core.

Li Ye handed over a piece of mutton and said, "Aiqing, this is the fattest leg of lamb, just taste it and see if what I said is true."

Wang Xingyu squeezed out a few smiles on his face, and took the leg of lamb.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Li Ye cut a piece by himself, and looked at the Ping Ning army while eating.I thought to myself: "If you get this army by fraud, I'm afraid you will lose the morale of the army. If you forcefully recruit it, there will be endless troubles. What should be done to resolve it?"

The two of them ate meat, their minds diverged, and they didn't speak. In the end, Wang Xingyu opened his mouth and said, "Your Majesty, I heard that the soldiers and horses in the east of the river are majestic and invincible in the world. I beg your Majesty to announce the method of training soldiers." The Jiedu envoy of Hedong, Li Keyong, had an audience with him and recommended him on behalf of his ministers, who wanted to ask for advice."

After Wang Xingyu finished speaking, he looked closely at the emperor. He just mentioned the soldiers and horses in the east of the river, who are invincible in the world. He specially emphasized his tone, hoping that the emperor could understand.Don't rely on youthful arrogance, or wrongdoing, if you do something wrong, think about the consequences.

Li Ye naturally heard the voice of the outside world, and at this moment, he somewhat understood why Wang Xingyu dared to come to see him without fear.

From meeting Wang Xingyu to the present, every word Wang Xingyu said has its own meaning, his thinking is meticulous, and he is quite organized. No matter how you look at it, he is not a brainless person.

Thinking of this, Li Ye felt relieved, if so, things would be easy to handle.

Wang Xingyu is a person who always weighs the pros and cons when doing things, and cares about gains and losses. This kind of person will always choose the most beneficial choice for him.

Thinking of this, Li Ye said: "It's a trivial matter. When I return to Chang'an, I will order Li Keyong to court. Aiqing can return to Chang'an with me. I will definitely recommend Li Keyong to Aiqing."

To Chang'an?Wang Xingyu didn't think about it, but the emperor ordered Li Ke to come to court, which made Wang Xingyu break out in a cold sweat.

How can it be?

"Your Majesty, is Li Ke in the army? Who is the general of the Hedong Army?"

Li Ye laughed and said, "Where did Aiqing hear the rumors? There are no soldiers from the east of the river here!"

How can this be so?
Wang Xingyu's mind was blank, with many questions.

Since Li Keyong didn't come, which feudal town came? Zhu Wen, Li Kuangwei, Meng Yifang, or Wang Chongying who was close.

Why didn't he hear any news?
"Your Majesty, I don't know where other than the ministers, there are soldiers and horses responding to the order to hunt down the thieves!"

Li Ye laughed and said, "Han Jian, governor of Huazhou, also sent troops!"

Han Jian?Han Jian Wang Xingyu naturally knew that the camp was now set up twenty miles away from Chang'an, and the soldiers did not move.

So?

The ones who fought fiercely with Li Maozhen were the Forbidden Army of the Tang Dynasty?
When did the Forbidden Army become so powerful?
Wang Xingyu felt a little overwhelmed.

Just when Wang Xingyu was at a loss, Li Ye got up and pulled Wang Xingyu to the middle of the wall.

"The Ping Ning army is indeed mighty and majestic, Ai Qing is really the pillar of the country!"

Seeing the barracks, the generals and schools were not very willing at first, but now seeing the emperor with his own commander-in-chief, one by one, like little white rabbits, followed the servants to receive the reward.

Wang Xingyu wants to cry but has no tears, His Majesty the Emperor is so shameless!
By this time, Wang Xingyu understood everything, the court wanted to cut his military power.

The next scene validated his idea even more.

As soon as the military academies of the Pingning Army left, the imperial army camped in front, left, and right of the Pingning Army one after another.

The back of the Pingning Army is the wall.

Wang Xingyu closed his eyes slightly.

He said in his heart, "The big thing is over. I personally sent the Ping Ning army into the tiger's mouth. I regret not as much as before."

"Since the imperial army can destroy Li Maozhen, it would not be difficult to attack the Pingning army. Li Maozhen is now decapitated, and he is still alive and well. It is not entirely a bad thing."

"If the emperor wants to kill me now, it will only be a matter of one sentence."

Where to go.

With a plop, Wang Xingyu knelt down in front of Li Ye.

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty... please forgive me!"

Li Ye helped Wang Xingyu up, and thought, it would be great if your old Wang is so knowledgeable about current affairs.
