Chapter 886

If it had changed from usual, Wang Ping'an would definitely be evasive when it came to sending troops and going on an expedition. As long as he could not risk his life, he would never give his life for others to play with!
But this time was different, he saw the danger of staying in the court.If Wu Meiniang is a warship, then she has not only successfully installed weapons and equipment, but has already launched into the water and started sailing. The next step is to open fire on others.And as the person who helped build this warship himself, he can only follow her to fire at others, and also prevent Wu Meiniang from firing at him. Others also fired at him!
A real man is not afraid of splints. Since he saw the danger in advance, he had to actively save himself. In the Tang Dynasty, only the generals in the far town could protect themselves.In Li Shimin's era, this idea was purely suicidal, but in the Li Zhi era, this idea has a feasible basis. No matter how Wu Meiniang rises, it will take at least 20 years before she can say the same thing.

Wu Meiniang can develop her own power, and Wang Pingan can also use this time to develop his own power. This is a matter of going hand in hand. As long as Wu Meiniang fails to defeat him in the early stage, then in the later stage, he only needs to turn to support Wu Meiniang's children and grandchildren, the situation will change again, who can live better than anyone else!

Wang Pingan thought about this, and immediately stood up and said: "Your Majesty, I think what the eldest grandson said is very reasonable. Li Ke's affairs are always changing, and there is no time to stop. In my opinion, it is better to be more straightforward. Let the matter be done thoroughly, once and for all, and he will never be allowed to be a demon again!"

Li Zhi sighed, and turned to Wang Ping'an in surprise, thinking: "Why is he so brave? The plan that my uncle made just now is actually to let him lead the army to go to Goguryeo with the Zheliu Turkic soldiers. Why didn’t he just hide and agree? Ah, I see, he agrees first, and then recommends others to lead the army, and he himself will stay in Chang’an!”

Li Zhi glanced at the important officials in the tent, and thought: "I wonder who he will recommend?"

The generals in the tent frowned together, they will surely win the battle, this is for sure, what a great achievement to destroy the country.However, if Li Ke is involved in this, it will be very boring, and it may be infamous.In this way, this contribution is worthless, it is tasteless to eat, and it is a pity to discard it!

Who will Wang Pingan recommend? Everyone wondered in their hearts, but they all felt bad. After all, for important officials like them, the credit has already been made enough, and it doesn't matter if one more or one less. The difference is that no one wants Wang Pingan to recommend himself.

Changsun Wuji thought to himself: "Is he going to recommend someone else again? No, I have to tell him in advance, otherwise he will talk about it, and who will be pushed out? The people who led the Turkic soldiers except him Others are not suitable, you can't suppress those Turkic soldiers!"

Changsun Wuji said: "The old minister thinks that Wang Ping'an is the most appropriate to lead the army. It is better to recruit the first batch of troops from Zheliu. If the Turkic soldiers cannot conquer Goguryeo, it is safest for our Tang army to go out. !"

Li Zhi didn't immediately agree, and looked at Wang Pingan, wanting to hear which general he would recommend.

Who knows, Wang Ping'an "does his part" authentically: "Your Majesty, I am honored by the eldest grandson's promotion, and I also think that it is most appropriate for me to command the Zheliu Turkic army for an expedition. If other generals are replaced, I am afraid that the Turkic soldiers will not accept the dispatch. It will cause side issues, which is not good for expedition warfare!"

In the big tent, there was a sound of surprise, and the monarchs and ministers looked at Wang Ping'an together, and they all said in their hearts: "Why has he changed his nature, and he has the behavior of being the first in the world? Could it be that it is hot, and he has lost his head? "

Li Zhi was even more surprised. He had known Wang Ping'an for so long, but he had never seen him be so straightforward, he was not afraid of death, and "willingly" led the army to go out. He would never push him to the point of no return. Leading the army!

Li Zhidao: "No disease, are you really willing to lead the army? This trip to Liaodong is not just about beating Goguryeo people, the main thing is to solve Li Ke, and you are willing to do that too!" Accidentally, he told the truth Having said it, although everyone knows the truth, but because everyone understands it, everyone is unwilling to go!

Wang Pingan took a deep breath and said, "Your Majesty, actually, I'm not that willing to go. If any general is willing to invite Ying, then of course I won't go!"

The ministers in the tent shook their heads together, come on, you better go, it is rare that you are willing to show it once, how could we not give you the opportunity!
Li Zhi looked around and saw that none of the generals jumped out to ask for Ying, he said: "It seems that you are the only one going. But since you are willing to go, how can I reward you?"

Wang Ping'an is already the Duke of Liao. From the point of view of the minister's title, unless he becomes the king of the opposite sex, no matter how much he is promoted, he will not be promoted.As for the official position, he became a servant of the province, and he couldn't be promoted again.Whether it is a title or an official position, it is not easy to be promoted.

If there is another emperor, since there is no reward, then let's kill him, but Li Zhi can't do such a thing, he can't bear to kill Wang Pingan, a good brother!
Wang Pingan hurriedly said: "If you are loyal to the country, why do you need to be rewarded? I don't want anything. I just want to be loyal to the emperor for another 100 years, then I will be satisfied!"

Anyone would have to say that, even if they want to go crazy in their hearts, they have to be reserved in their mouths, and they can't just open their mouths to ask for officials and nobles.

Changsun Wuji was quite moved. At the critical moment, it seemed that Wang Ping'an was the one who could contribute the most, and he was the one who praised him the most. Killing Li Ke had always been his greatest wish. Since Wang Ping'an was willing to carry it out, he couldn't treat him badly!
Changsun Wuji said: "Your Majesty, Wang Ping'an is loyal to the emperor and patriotic. He is indeed a role model for my courtiers and workers. The old minister thought that in terms of titles, it is better to confer Wang Ping'an as the county king, enfeoff the land and break the willows, live in this place, and rest with the country. In this way, Let the people of the world know that no matter who is dedicated to serving the country and serving the emperor, the emperor will not treat this person badly!"

Li Zhi sighed, thinking: "This is to be a king with a different surname. Who was the last king with a different surname? Well, it was Luo Yi, the king of Yan County. It is a pity that Luo Yi supported Li Jiancheng and rebelled to avenge Li Jiancheng, and was eventually defeated. Died. In terms of loyalty to the monarch, Wubing far surpassed Luo Yi, but unfortunately Luo Yi didn't end well, supporting the wrong person, this is a bit unlucky, I'm afraid it will be the same after Wubing!"

Ever since Liu Bang, the great ancestor of the Han Dynasty, killed a white horse to sacrifice to heaven, and said that people with a different surname were not allowed to be kings, it was like a curse.Of course, it can’t be said that all end well, but even if there is a good end, they will live their lives timidly, fearing that one day the emperor will become suspicious of him and kill him. In fact, this kind of end cannot be called Well, at best it can only be regarded as a normal death!

Li Zhi hesitated a little, and said: "Feng Wang... this, do you want to leave the town?" Kings with different surnames must have vassal territories. If Wang Ping'an is really entrusted to Zheliu, then Wang Ping'an will have to stay there in the future and cannot be summoned. , can no longer enter Beijing casually.

Changsun Wuji had already thought about it, this is not a problem, he said: "Of course we have to go out of the town, but Wang Ping'an is better at martial arts than martial arts, so the old minister thought that let him take the domain from afar and let his son guard it, and he It is more appropriate to still serve as a servant in Beijing!"

After hearing this, the ministers nodded one after another, saying that this is the best way, and it is Mr. Changsun who is wise.They were still envious and jealous of Wang Ping'an's ability to become king, but after hearing Changsun Wuji's words, everyone felt that it was justified.To put it bluntly, it was not Wang Ping'an who was granted the title, but his son. But Wang Ping'an has no son now, and even if he has a son in the future, he will still be the emperor's nephew.

And once Wang Ping'an died, according to the regulation of downgrading succession, Wang Ping'an's son could no longer be a prince, and was relegated back to the title of duke.

Changsun Wuji came up with an idea, and the ministers agreed unanimously. Li Zhi thought about it, and then nodded.He said: "If you are not sick, then I will make you the king of Liaojun, take the post of deputy commander in chief of the Liaodong march, and lead the army to go to Goguryeo. Even if it is... even if it is to assist Li Ke, I will make Li Ke the Liaodong march commander." Chief, you two are a principal and a deputy, but you are in charge of the military power, you can't give him the military power!"

Wang Pingan quickly knelt down and thanked him. It is better to have a prince than nothing. After he destroys Goguryeo, he will find a way when he returns to Beijing. He will be able to become a prince in a fief. The farther the better.

Changsun Wuji smiled and said, "Your Majesty is too worried. Even if Wang Pingan forces the Turkic soldiers to Li Ke, I'm afraid Li Ke won't be able to handle it!"

The ministers laughed together, thinking in their hearts: "Li Ke is not a fool, no matter how much he wants to grab the military power, he can't grab the Turkic soldiers. The Turkic soldiers can easily roast him!"

The monarchs and ministers discussed the specific details again, but there was nothing to discuss. The Turkic soldiers belonged to the servant army, and the Turkic grasslands outside the customs on the marching route did not need to prepare any food for them, nor did they need to be paid. They were purely for nothing. Don't be afraid that they will all die.As for the troops of the Tang Dynasty, they continued to be mobilized. The Turkic soldiers took the lead, and Li Ke would be surprised because of the dissatisfaction of the Turkic soldiers. Therefore, the original military plan did not change much, but it was easier to implement.

After the discussion, the meeting in the tent was adjourned, and Wang Ping'an came out of the tent. Changsun Wuji caught up with him, patted Wang Ping'an's shoulder, and said with a smile, "No disease, the palace is haunted by ghosts. After all this trouble, it's easier for you. You're king now." Ah, this is something to celebrate!"

Wang Pingan hurriedly said: "The youngest son of the emperor has just passed away, and the emperor is making troubles. What are you celebrating! However, my uncle has begged for the title of county king for my nephew. My nephew is really grateful, and I don't know how to repay it!"

Changsun Wuji led him to his tent, and said, "You are an obedient child, just keep being obedient in the future!"

Not far away, there was a person standing at the corner of the tent, but it was Wu Meiniang.Wu Meiniang was surprised when she heard their conversation, what's going on, Wang Ping'an became the county king?
