Chapter 909 The Battle at Xuanwu Gate
Chapter 909 The Battle at Xuanwu Gate (The Finale)
Changsun Wuji took out a map of the Gyeonggi area, pointed at the map, and said, "Our current location is here, fifty miles away from Chang'an City, which is the distance from us to Xuanwu Gate, and we cannot enter Chang'an City if we launch a military remonstrance. In the city, the people are crowded, not only can we not get close to Wu Meiniang easily, but it is easy for her to run away, if we can't catch up with her, catch her and let her return to the palace, then everything will be over."
Wang Pingan said: "Behind the Xuanwu gate is the imperial palace. Of course we can't go in. The army praises martial arts, so how can anyone boast about entering the imperial palace?"
Changsun Wuji said: "Of course, we will not enter the Xuanwu Gate. We are just cheering to the emperor and the Wuyao girl to show our allegiance there. The city gate we walk through is the Kaiyuan Gate in the west, and then we will go all the way. , go to Suzaku Street, exit Mingde Gate, our army will station outside the city."
Wang Ping'an snorted, and said, "Yes, it should be to go away from the far gate. We are going back to expand the territory. This is different from other battles. It's just that I haven't walked through this gate before. I don't know how the surrounding situation is. How should I proceed?" soldiers?"
Changsun Wuji and Chu Suiliang looked up at him together, and said in unison: "We are not going to raise troops at the Kaiyuan Gate, but at the Xuanwu Gate!"
Wang Ping'an was taken aback, and said, "Xuanwu Gate? We can't even enter this gate, we can only cheer a few times below, and there are too many guards here, how can we raise troops here?"
Of course he knew that Li Shimin had successfully raised his troops in this most dangerous place back then, but it's different now!When Li Shimin raised his troops, there were internal support in the palace. Whether it was the general or the eunuchs in the palace, they were all Li Shimin's people, but now they have no internal support in the palace. If they attack from the Xuanwu Gate, the chances of success are almost infinite close to zero!
Changsun Wuji frowned and said, "There are too many guards to count? As the general leading the army, why don't you even know the deployment of Xuanwu Sect's troops?"
Wang Pingan blinked. He only knew that the army guarding the Xuanwu Gate belonged to the Beiya, but he never cared about how it was deployed.But in such an important place, of course there should be many people, so could it be that there are very few people?
Changsun Wuji said: "On weekdays, the army strength of the Beiya is 800 people, but tomorrow we will boast of martial arts, and the emperor will go out of the palace, and the army strength will be doubled, that is to say, it should be 600 people. But the 600 people People must be distributed throughout the northern city wall, once the troops are scattered, the Xuanwumen's troops will be left with 1000 or [-] people."
Wang Ping'an thought: "How is this force calculated? How to arrange the other city gates? The other city gates don't care about them, but there are quite a few left. You can't get in at all!"
Chu Suiliang said: "That's right, the Xuanwu Gate that is usually guarded is a large regiment, with more troops than ordinary guards." He was referring to a large regiment of 600 people. After doubling, it became 1000 or [-] people.
Changsun Wuji said again: "The emperor will go out of the palace to welcome us tomorrow, and the imperial army he brought with him is 100 warriors with halberds and a flag team of 500 people, which is another [-] people less."
Wang Pingan was a little relieved, and said: "Then there are only 700 people left in Xuanwu Sect!"
Chu Suiliang shook his head and said: "It's not 700 people, but 500 people. You forgot, Xuanwu Gate has two gates, inside and outside. Among the 700 people, there are 200 people who have to guard the inner gate at the back. Usually there are 100 people. And this 200 people are not allowed to give orders, they cannot support any place, they must stick to the inner gate, and seeing that there is a change outside, they will not go to support Wu Yaonv, but immediately put down the iron gate of the inner gate, so that we can't Going in, unless the leader is our internal response, but we have no internal response, we are afraid that once the iron gate of the inner gate is lowered, we will not be able to enter, but they will also come out, and Wu Yaonv can't enter either, she can only Escape for your life along the city wall. In fact, only the last 500 people around her can participate in the battle, and we have to deal with these 500 people!"
Changsun Wuji added: "And we brought 5000 Turkic soldiers!"
Wang Pingan was stunned for a moment, and a bad premonition suddenly rose in his heart, as if he had been calculated!
Changsun Wuji went on to say: "What we launched was a military remonstrance, not a rebellion, so when the emperor is outside the city, we cannot let the Turkic soldiers approach him to avoid accidents, but the old man should lead the three thousand guards who are not sick, go To protect the emperor, don't let him get close to the Xuanwu Gate where the battle is about to take place. Three thousand against five hundred can definitely control the situation."
The bad feeling became stronger and stronger, and Wang Ping'an became more certain that he must have been calculated!
Changsun Wuji said: "The affairs around the emperor will be handled by the old man, but if you are not sick, you will take five thousand Turkic soldiers to attack the Xuanwu Gate, because the Turkic soldiers only listen to you, and the old man can't command!"
Wang Pingan nodded slowly, but thought in his heart, bad, I am very likely to be demolished by crossing the river!You bastard is not a good thing. Before using me, I was thinking of how to get rid of me. Wu Meiniang is not a good person, and neither is Changsun Wuji!
Wang Pingan was angry in his heart, but there was no angry expression on his face. He was still listening "seriously" and nodded slowly.
Changsun Wuji saw his erratic expression, thinking that he didn't see the danger, and then continued: "Wu Yaonv will not accompany the emperor, she came out of the city to welcome us, she is not a canonized queen, so she just You can wait for us to go back at the gate of Xuanwumen, and the canonization ceremony will start once we go back."
Wang Pingan nodded again.Chu Suiliang couldn't bear it in his heart. He and Changsun Wuji's friendship for many years, of course he knew what the consequences of this matter would be, but such a major event, even if Wang Ping'an was sacrificed, was worth it.However, he decided in his heart that even if he tried his best afterwards, he still wanted to keep the king safe from death, so let's do our best!
Changsun Wuji pointed to the Xuanwu Gate, and said again: "Wu Yaonu will only have five hundred soldiers by her side, and once the Turkic soldiers attack, they don't need to seize the bridge immediately, but first use arrows to control the outer gate of the Xuanwu Gate. If the city gate cannot be closed, the arrows can also control the top of the city, so the drawbridge cannot be raised. At this time, the soldiers at the inner gate will see that there is a change, and they will immediately get down the iron gate, cutting off our way of attack , also cut off the retreat path of Wu Yaonu."
Speaking of this, Changsun Wuji paused and looked at Chu Suiliang.Chu Suiliang sighed in his heart, but he understood what he meant, and he said: "Wu Yaonv can't enter the palace at this time, so she can only run along the city wall, but no matter which direction she runs from east to west, within two quarters of an hour, she can go to the palace. Without any support, as long as [-] Turkic soldiers enter the outer gate, there are only [-] forbidden troops in front of them. , where the soldiers are densely packed, the arrows can decide the outcome, and it is inevitable that the Wuyao girl will be killed!"
Wang Pingan nodded silently. Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji were both killed by arrows in the Xuanwu Gate. This is experience!
Changsun Wuji asked: "The specific plan is this, what do you think of the disease-free?"
Wang Ping'an was speechless for a while, he already understood in his heart that this coup has been calculated to such an extent that there is no possibility of failure, which is more certain than the coup launched by Li Shimin back then.However, Changsun Wuji only talked about the process of military remonstrance, but did not talk about the result of military remonstrance, and he didn't mention a single word about how to deal with the aftermath!
Such a precise plan, no matter how experienced Changsun Wuji is, it is impossible to come up with it on the spot. It is very likely that he thought it up when he was in Yingzhou, and the number and quality of the troops he brought back were not as good as before. It's all calculated, but he kept it a secret and didn't mention it, and he foolishly didn't think about it, and was kept in the dark until now!
Why did Changsun Wuji lead the guards to "defend" Li Zhi?First, there are many soldiers, so he must be able to "protect". Second, the bodyguards are all citizens of the Tang Dynasty and will not hurt Li Zhi, so Changsun Wuji can pretend to be a good person, and he will only be by Li Zhi's side from beginning to end. Do not participate in bloody massacres.
After the remonstrance was over, Changsun Wuji could even say that he didn't know about it beforehand, and it was all done by Wang Pingan alone. Anyway, Wu Yaonv died and his goal was achieved. Loyal minister, what can't be done?
The river is over, why do we need bridges?
Wang Pingan led [-] Turkic soldiers to attack Xuanwu Gate, and he was sure to win, but what happened after the victory?He was leading the Turkic soldiers, not the government soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, but the Fanbang army. He led the Fanbang army to attack Xuanwumen, is that okay?No matter how much Li Zhi trusted him, he would not let him go!
Why 5000 people versus 500 people?Because the Turkic soldiers must be able to win, but why must it be 5000?Because if there is an accident here at Xuanwu Gate, someone must run to find reinforcements, and the nearest barracks, if they come to support, it will take more than half an hour. It is impossible for the Weifu army to support it to be less than [-], and the Gyeonggi Prefecture soldiers are all the elite among the elite, not inferior to the elite Turkic soldiers, on the contrary they will be stronger!
As long as Changsun Wuji said that the Turkic soldiers rebelled, and the Weifu army rushed forward, all the Turkic soldiers would be wiped out, including Wang Ping'an himself.Even if Wang Ping'an survived by luck, what awaits him is a dead dog!
This military remonstrance was planned by Changsun Wuji, and the real executor was Wang Pingan. The people who died were [-] forbidden soldiers and [-] Turkic soldiers, and things will surely develop. The military remonstrance was planned and executed by Wang Pingan. But in the end, Changsun Wuji suppressed the remonstrance and got rid of the rebels for Emperor Li Zhi!
The whole thing is, the military remonstrance was successful, and Wu Meiniang, a witch who harmed the country and the people, was eradicated; the suppression of the military remonstrance was successful, Wang Ping'an and his Turkic soldiers were killed, and even after the arrival of the guard brigade, Wang Ping'an's three thousand guards were all captured; finally, Sun Wuji was innocent from the beginning to the end, loyal to the emperor, and made great contributions in suppressing rebellious ministers. He is still the first minister of the Tang Dynasty, and his position is more consolidated and unshakable!
After Wang Pingan figured this out, the bad premonition gradually disappeared, replaced by a chill, and the back of his spine felt chilly.This is really a battle. Before the battle begins, the result has already been determined!
Scholar-bureaucrats really kill people with their minds, they don't have blood on their hands!
Wang Ping'an was angry in his heart, but the angrier he was, the more normal his expression became. He bit his lip and said, "This plan is very appropriate. I think it will work. It will definitely succeed."
Changsun Wuji and Chu Suiliang breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, and Changsun Wuji said: "Okay, let's do it like this."
He turned to Chu Suiliang and said, "Brother Chu, please go back to the city quickly and tell Brother Fang and the others about the matter." Bar!"
Wang Pingan asked intentionally: "Should I recruit them all here, and my uncle will tell them in person?"
Changsun Wuji waved his hand and said: "No need for this, the old man is not very good at motivating them, so it's better for you to talk about it."
Wang Pingan hummed, and went out of the tent with Chu Suiliang.Outside the tent, the two walked a short distance, and Chu Suiliang suddenly whispered: "No disease, this matter is very risky, but the old man promises that no matter what happens, the old man will take good care of your family. We have others to take care of our family. Don't think too much, just be loyal to the country!" He patted Wang Ping'an on the shoulder, got on his horse and left.
Wang Pingan stood there, speechless for a long time.Although Chu Suiliang's words did not contain hints, they were only talking about the risks of this military remonstrance, but because he had already analyzed the results of the military remonstrance, his mentality was different, and when he heard the words, his reaction would naturally be different.He knew that Chu Suiliang had also reached the result of this remonstrance, but he couldn't say it clearly, so he assured himself that no matter what, Chu Suiliang remembered the benefits he had given him and would take good care of his family on his behalf !
In the struggle in the imperial court, it is normal for you to cut me and I to beat you.Today's allies may be tomorrow's enemies. To put it bluntly, it's just a combination of interests.However, Wang Pingan didn't like this kind of intrigue very much. Whether in the court or among the people, he always appeared as a good old man, not aggressive. Very little.But he did good deeds without expecting anything in return, but he can't cause disaster instead!
From the perspective of a minister, there is nothing doubtful about Changsun Wuji's actions. The imperial court is a big river and lake, and people can't help themselves in the rivers and lakes.Besides, as the eldest grandson Wuji, there is no need to talk about loyalty with Wang Pingan. Wang Pingan is very kind to him, but eldest grandson Wuji is not mean to him. Speaking of the two, neither one owes the other.
Just like in the Three Kingdoms era, when the heroes fought against each other, the relationship between Shu Han and Soochow was very close, and they joined forces to fight against Cao, but for the benefit of Jingzhou, in the blink of an eye, Shu Han and Soochow could go to war, and after a fight , Beat all the three Taoyuan brothers to death, but for the sake of profit, in a blink of an eye, they were buddies again, and then joined forces to deal with Cao Wei.
It's normal to separate and combine. There are no permanent enemies, only permanent interests.
But no matter how normal things are, it's okay to see others are normal, but once things fall on his own head, let himself be "normal", but Wang Ping'an feels extremely uncomfortable.
Wu Meiniang didn't turn against him, and things could develop later, and the two of them could only live in mutual suspicion. The danger would always exist, and it would explode at any time; As a result, [-]% out of [-]% of him will become a scapegoat. Even if he succeeds in his military advice, he will no longer be trusted by Li Zhi, unless he is a powerful minister and controls the emperor. he?Maybe before it's his turn, Sun Wuji, the minister of power, will get rid of him as a candidate for power minister first!
Wang Pingan shook his head and was in a dilemma. Now he is in a dilemma. No matter which side he supports, there will be serious consequences, which is not good for him!
He didn't move the place, and the thoughts in his mind kept turning, but he couldn't think of a good way, and he felt a headache and nausea.He knew that this was the result of excessive use of the brain. In this case, there was no time to take a nap, but at least take a nap, otherwise he would faint.
At this moment, someone whispered behind him, but it was his confidant Ouyang Li.Ouyang Li whispered: "Master, why are you standing here? What's the matter? Let's go back to our tent and talk about it!"
Wang Pingan hummed softly, then turned around and said, "Did you hear what was said in the big tent just now?" He did not forbid his subordinates to eavesdrop on his discussions with others. If he didn't want his subordinates to know, he would explain in advance and let his subordinates If he stepped back, Ouyang Li would understand, and if he didn't say it in advance, he would allow his subordinates to eavesdrop. After all, he still had to rely on his subordinates to handle anything.
Ouyang Li nodded, and said: "Chu Suiliang came late at night, there must be something urgent, the subordinates naturally have to listen outside the tent, lest they plot against the master."
"You understand it too, can you hear that they are plotting against me?" Wang Ping'an whispered, and he walked towards his tent while talking.
Ouyang Li whispered: "I don't quite understand it, but I feel that something is not right. It is such a big matter to make a military remonstrance, why doesn't Master Changsun talk about the benefits after it is done?"
Wang Pingan snorted and said, "Benefits? Holding the banner of loyalty to the country, if you talk about benefits, wouldn't it be a disadvantage in character? benefits, which will lead to dissent, so we don't talk about it."
The two entered the tent, Ouyang Li said: "But if he doesn't talk about it, the subordinates will become suspicious, otherwise they won't be suspicious."
Wang Pingan sat down on the carpet and sighed: "If he does this with you, he will talk about it, but if he does it with me, then there is no need. You and I are in different situations and of course have different ideas. Strange, how can he not know the reason!"
Ouyang Li said, thinking about it was right, he opened the curtain and called all Ouyang brothers in.Among the interest groups, the Ouyang brothers are definitely with Wang Pingan, and their wealth and life are all tied to Wang Pingan. They can only be with Wang Pingan, and there is no possibility of rebellion.And even if they rebel, others will not believe them, and as Wang Ping'an's confidantes, if they rebel, they are not famous generals, they can only be regarded as an outstanding group of capable people and strangers. Once they betray the original owner, No matter who it is, they dare not use them anymore. Their future, and even their lives, have come to an end. Once Wang Ping'an is finished, they will be the first group of people to be silenced.
For his absolutely trustworthy subordinates, Wang Ping'an had nothing to hide, he told the matter, and he also talked about the consequences of the military remonstrance.The Ouyang brothers turned pale with fright, they couldn't believe that they would be involved in such a dangerous thing as military remonstrance.
Ouyang Yi asked: "Master, the consequences you mentioned are just your own guesses, right? Maybe the eldest grandson Xiangye will not deal with you like this."
Ouyang Shuang said: "But it's not sure, according to me, the eldest grandson would deal with the master like this, ninety percent out of ten!"
The Ouyang brothers talked a lot, and their opinions gradually came to an agreement. Although they used to be reckless, but because they used to live a life of licking blood, they were more sensitive to the coming of danger. Not too good.But horses are in the middle of the road, and now they can only enter, but they can't turn back. How to deal with it has become a problem.
After discussing for a while, Wang Pingan said: "There is only one way to go now, that is, we must force Changsun Wuji to admit that he is the mastermind at the beginning of the military remonstrance, instead of shifting the responsibility to us, as long as he If we can share the risk with other ministers, the risk will be much smaller when we work together."
Ouyang Li sighed: "It would be great if Di Renjie was here. This kid has the most evil ideas, and maybe he can come up with some good ideas."
Wang Pingan snorted, and said: "He is guarding those royal relatives, and things are very difficult. Although those royal relatives were imprisoned in Dali Temple because of Wu Meiniang's framing, it was the emperor's will after all. Otherwise, Wu Meiniang has no right to lock them up. Di Renjie wants to imprison these people and appease them, so that they don't misunderstand the emperor and don't have resentment in their hearts, this task is very difficult!"
Ouyang Li thought for a while, and suddenly, his eyes lit up, and he whispered: "Master, Changsun Wuji wants to be by the emperor's side when he is admonishing, but he uses our bodyguards, if something happens to you, our bodyguards How can it stop, they will definitely counterattack, the imperial guards around the emperor are not our brothers' opponents? If something happens to you, doesn't it mean that something will happen to the emperor, even if nothing big happens to the emperor, but as long as you shout, the eldest grandson Something will happen to Wuji, the guards only listen to you, but not to elder grandson Wuji, he is surrounded by our people, the danger is even greater!"
Wang Pingan said, thinking about it is right, I just thought that Changsun Wuji would cross the river and tear down the bridge, and would plot against him, but under the headache, he forgot that he could also counter Changsun Wuji!This year, no, not this year, but every year is the same, whoever has soldiers is the boss, and if you have soldiers, you are the boss!
But why did Chu Suiliang say those words again before leaving?Yes, Changsun Wuji did not tell Chu Suiliang the real purpose of his remonstrance, and Chu Suiliang thought the same as himself.However, it is estimated that Chu Suiliang should have understood the smell by now!
Wang Pingan said: "Changsun Wuji is going to drive me to a dead end first, the end of the dead road is a cliff, and if I don't jump off, I have to turn back, but when I turn back, the dead road has been blocked by him, so I want to survive , I can only listen to him! But what is he doing that makes me have to listen to him?"
He had to listen to Changsun Wuji, which meant that he couldn't betray temporarily, but what could make Wang Pingan suddenly betray regardless of his original plan?That must be the ultimate purpose of this remonstrance, and Changsun Wuji didn't tell anyone about this purpose, not even a hint!
Everyone in the tent looked at me and I looked at you. Suddenly, everyone said in unison: "Your Majesty!"
Wang Pingan nodded heavily, and said, "Yes, it's the emperor! I'm so stupid, I didn't think of this until now, and I almost didn't think of it!"
Changsun Wuji knew that the relationship between Wang Pingan and Li Zhi was as good as that of his own brothers. Even if there was a conflict, it would be after the remonstrance. But before the remonstrance was over, Changsun Wuji wanted to do something to Li Zhi. He was afraid that Wang Ping'an would rescue him. Li Zhi forced Wang Pingan so that Wang Pingan did not dare to rescue Li Zhi.
Because Changsun Wuji knew Wang Ping'an very well, Wang Ping'an would never do something that would kill them both.If Wang Pingan found out what Changsun Wuji was going to do to Li Zhi, he might rush over with Turkic soldiers. Changsun Wuji was dead, but in the chaos, the government soldiers would definitely think that Wang Pingan was going to rebel. In the fight, no explanation is easy to use, we can only talk about it after the fight, Changsun Wuji will not survive, and Wang Ping'an will also have to finish, this must be the result of both!
But Wang Pingan will definitely not accept this result, he is unwilling to die, so he has to accept another result, which is relatively milder!
Ouyang Li said in horror: "Could it be possible that Master Sun wants to establish a new king? What about the current emperor?"
At the same time, everyone thought of the last Xuanwumen change. The political opponents at that time were also killed, but the then emperor Li Yuan lost his power and became the Supreme Emperor, so even if Li Yuan was dissatisfied with the Xuanwumen change, he could not do anything. Take any act of revenge!
Remonstrance, using force to "persuade" the emperor, and those who initiate remonstrance will definitely not end well. Whether it is an incident in Chang'an in this era, or after the name is changed to Xi'an in the future, those who initiate remonstrance will lose power. This is certain.And if the initiator does not want to lose power, there is only one way to go, and that is to completely control the superiors. For Changsun Wuji, it is to completely control the emperor of Datang!
However, Changsun Wuji can no longer completely control Li Zhi, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty. If he can completely control it, he will launch a military remonstrance when he is full?How could he be willing to do such a risky thing until the last moment?After the military remonstrance, there will be a estrangement between him and Li Zhi, which will never be eliminated, but Li Zhi has the support of the ministers, so Changsun Wuji's end will inevitably be quite bleak, and Li Zhi will find an opportunity sooner or later He gave except!
Then, after the remonstrance, two possible results emerged, either after a short period of time, Li Zhi replaced Changsun Wuji, or Changsun Wuji replaced Li Zhi.In this way, choose one of the two, and the final result will appear. Changsun Wuji will not be replaced, so Li Zhi can only be replaced, just like Li Yuan was quickly replaced after the last Xuanwu Gate change!
Wang Ping'an murmured: "I understand, the Xuanwu Sect's remonstrance this time is exactly the same as the last coup d'état. The end result is actually the same. It's a change of emperor!"
The Ouyang brothers said in unison: "Put on Prince Li Zhong, little boy, son emperor!"
Changsun Wuji can definitely control the little prince Li Zhong, and as long as Wang Pingan leads the Turkic soldiers to attack the Xuanwu Gate and kill Wu Meiniang, at the most critical moment, he threatens Li Zhi with tears on his face. , let him stop trusting Wu Meiniang, and for the sake of the Tang Dynasty, abdicate and become the Supreme Emperor... There is no possibility that Li Zhi will not agree. Li Zhi must have fainted from fright at that time. Even if he refused, the eldest grandson Wuji would also yell at the officials, the army, and the stunned common people, saying that Li Zhi agreed to abdicate and become the Supreme Emperor!
Anyway, Changsun Wuji did this kind of thing before, forcing Li Yuan to become the Supreme Emperor like lightning, so what if he forced Li Zhi again?What's more, forcing Li Zhi is much easier than forcing Li Yuan!When Wang Pingan settled Wu Meiniang's matter, and the brigade soldiers arrived again, even if Wang Pingan wanted to betray him, it was too late. The raw rice was cooked, and Wang Pingan could only bite the bullet and accept his fate!
Ouyang Li said: "Under that situation, if you think about it with your toes, the emperor can only abdicate, and Li Zhong is definitely the emperor!"
Ouyang Shuang said: "Master, you have been used, and you have been used so thoroughly that there is no scum left!"
Wang Pingan said, "Don't be afraid of being used. Being able to be used means that I still have some value!" After he finished speaking, he leaned back, closed his eyes, and began to calculate.
The Ouyang brothers were silent for a while, it can be seen that Wang Ping'an has not opened his eyes, and he couldn't hold back anymore, so they began to discuss.They all knew the result of the remonstrance, so their minds naturally came alive.They didn't care about the struggle between Wang Ping'an and Changsun Wuji, Wu Meiniang, Li Zhi and others. They believed that since they knew the result, Wang Ping'an must have a solution!
What they are really interested in is: son emperor!
Changsun Wuji wanted to be an emperor, so why couldn't Wang Ping'an be established?Anyway, things have developed to this point, there is no suspense anymore, it depends on who dares to do it, Changsun Wuji used Wang Pingan first, but at the last moment, if Wang Pingan pushes the boat along the way, then at the most critical moment, he will It was the critical moment when Changsun Wuji forced Li Zhi to become the Supreme Emperor. As long as Wang Pingan used the fastest speed to put down the Turkic soldiers first, he himself, under the protection of the Ouyang brothers, rushed directly to Li Zhi and Changsun Wuji. By his side, he can directly counter everyone and become an emperor!
Changsun Wuji came up with a plan, so he was the one who made the noodles;However, if Wang Pingan made a sudden move and snatched the cake, he would have eaten the cake!
As soon as Li Zhi abdicated and became the Supreme Emperor, what was announced in public was a deadlock that could no longer be resolved.Then, the rest is who controls the emperor!
The Ouyang brothers were extremely excited. Once Wang Pingan controlled the Son Emperor, he would definitely replace Changsun Wuji, and would be more powerful than Changsun Wuji. It was even possible that after a few years, he could Instead, just like Yang Jian, Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty, set up a Zen position and establish a new dynasty, then the Ouyang brothers will be the founding fathers of the country!
Wang Pingan closed his eyes and listened to the discussions of his subordinates. Although they were all rebellious words, he was very touched when he heard them, and his heart was beating wildly!Will he become a person like Yang Jian?Will he become someone like Zhao Kuangyin?If things come to pass, then he will replace Changsun Wuji, not only can he control the son emperor, but also because he has received so many good person cards, is very popular and has a good reputation, in a short period of time, the ministers and the people will not Against him, after several years of management, as the Ouyang brothers discussed, it is not impossible to add a yellow robe!
But being an emperor, I never thought about it. All I thought about was how to support Wu Meiniang and let Wu Meiniang create a prosperous Tang Dynasty!
However, what Wu Meiniang can do, why can't she do it herself?I just didn't want to think about it before, because there was no chance, but now the opportunity is in front of me, and I can grab it as soon as I stretch out my hand. Do I want to grab this once-in-a-lifetime chance, only this time, and there will never be a second chance. ?
He really can't make a choice!
Seeing that Wang Ping'an kept his eyes closed, Ouyang Li whispered: "Master, don't hesitate any longer, the opportunity is not lost, and the failure will never come again. Don't stop, you will be disturbed by it!"
The Ouyang brothers also said: "After passing this village, there will be no such shop anymore. Even if it is for self-protection, we have to do it!"
Wang Pingan slowly opened his eyes, and said, "I have to do it to protect myself! But, I always feel sorry for the emperor!"
Ouyang Li said: "I'm sorry, the emperor. It's Changsun Wuji and Wu Meiniang, not you, the master. You just did the right thing at the last moment. It's all for the sake of the Tang Dynasty and the world. what!"
The Ouyang brothers nodded together, and said in unison: "Yes, this is all for the common people in the world, for the people of Li, and for my Tang Dynasty to be a bright and bright world..."
Wang Pingan waved his hand and said, "Stop doing this, who will believe what you say!" He touched his nose, and said, "It would be great if I could save Wu Meiniang's life. The emperor will be very happy when he becomes the emperor. Depression, with her by my side, can also relieve worries."
Ouyang Li saw that his tone was loose, and immediately said: "This is easy to handle. When the battle starts, the subordinates will go to the city in person and catch her. Just let her live. It's not difficult, but if she can't afford Yao'e in the future son, it will be difficult."
Wang Ping'an whispered: "Actually, that's not difficult."
The people in the tent did not speak any more, and fell silent for a while.
After a while, Wang Pingan said: "Then try it! You have to try everything, maybe we are the ones who created the prosperity of the Celestial Dynasty!"
The Ouyang brothers were overjoyed, and they said in unison: "It's time to try! Master, you have so many good ways to make the people live a prosperous life, and you invented the big water wheel, and you have done so many good things. It proves that the prosperity of the Celestial Dynasty can be created by the master!"
Wang Ping'an waved his hand and said, "Then, I will thank you all!"
The Ouyang brothers knelt down together and said in unison: "Don't dare to obey!" They got up, got out of the big tent, and went to give orders to the generals. In order to prevent accidents, they also did not tell the result of the remonstrance, but only the process. to make sure things run smoothly!
Wang Pingan stayed alone in the tent, sighed softly, and thought: "Work hard, from now on, I will never have a leisurely day!"
The sky is brightening and everything is ready.Because there was a big thing to do, the soldiers didn't pull out the camp, they put the tents and other things here, and everyone set off lightly.
Changsun Wuji rode a war horse. Looking at Wang Pingan, who was fully armed, he asked, "How? Is there any objection?"
Wang Pingan said: "My nephew didn't tell the story, but just told them to obey orders, so no one objected!"
Changsun Wuji sighed, and said: "Actually, it's okay to say it, at least let the generals know about it, so that they won't be dazed and afraid to act!"
Wang Pingan said: "That's not true. Their families are all in my hands, and they dare not disobey orders. Besides, they are not asked to attack the emperor, so they have no reason to hesitate. Most of the eight thousand generals People don't even know who the Martial Demon Girl is!"
Changsun Wuji nodded, and said: "The soldiers recruited in Yunzhou, as well as the Turkic soldiers... Well, you are right, they can't possibly know who the Wu Yaonv is!"
The two marched towards Chang'an City with their troops.
Chang'an.No matter the ministers or the common people, they already knew that the army returned to the court today, and Goguryeo was officially included in the territory of the Tang Dynasty.Although the new queen is not a newlywed, she can see what the queen looks like and satisfy the curiosity of the common people. A woman who can be the emperor's wife must look like a flower!
Li Zhi and Wu Meiniang got up early, after washing and grooming, Li Zhi put on the royal robe, and Wu Meiniang put on the queen's clothes.
After straightening the crown for Li Zhi, Wu Meiniang said, "Your Majesty, how long will it take for you to come back?"
Li Zhi said: "At least it will be noon. Mei Niang, you will have to wait at the city gate for several hours by yourself, so there is no need to get dressed right now. This dress also has a phoenix crown. It is very heavy and uncomfortable to wear. !"
Wu Meiniang said with a smile: "I like to wear it!" She and Li Zhi held hands, and went out of the Palace of Ganlu together to the Xuanwu Gate.
When they arrived at Xuanwu Gate, Wu Meiniang boarded the tower, while Li Zhi rode out of the city and headed north under the protection of the imperial army and ministers.
Li Zhi was on the horse, turned around, and waved at Wu Meiniang on the tower, Wu Meiniang smiled back at him, and waved her hand too, the two of them seemed inseparable.
In the minister's team, Chu Suiliang and Fang Xuanling looked up at Wu Meiniang together, Fang Xuanling whispered: "There will be no accidents, right?"
Chu Suiliang was stunned for a while, and replied in a low voice: "No way, Mr. Wuji has arranged everything, so there shouldn't be any accidents!"
Fang Xuanling sighed, and said in a low voice: "It's a pity for Wang Ping'an. But... maybe, don't be surprised. The old man is restless and always has an ominous feeling!"
"So am I!" Chu Suiliang whispered.
The two sighed in unison, the matter has come to this point, it is too late to say anything, I only hope that Changsun Wuji can control the situation!
There were tens of thousands of people watching the excitement. Amidst the cheers, Li Zhi led all the civil and military officials and rode away to the north.
Less than an hour later, Li Zhi and Wang Ping'an gathered together, just like in the past, seeing the big ceremony, the whole army shouted long live!
Wang Ping'an and Changsun Wuji wanted to talk to Li Zhi, but Li Zhi waved his hand and said, "Dear dears, we will talk about it at the court meeting. Now we are just boasting, and we will follow my arrangement! "
He had been repeatedly told by Wu Meiniang not to talk to Changsun Wuji and Wang Pingan, but to keep them shut up, otherwise they would definitely express their opinions on the sealing of the queen. At this time, they should not be allowed to object. If the scene gets embarrassing, there will be another cry or something, which will be very detrimental to the matter of sealing the empress.So Li Zhi resolutely refused to give Wang Pingan and Changsun Wuji a chance to speak!
What surprised Li Zhi was that Wang Ping'an and Changsun Wuji were so obedient and shut up at the same time. Changsun Wuji was by his side, while Wang Pingan led the army, and neither expressed their opinion on the Queen's Seal, but chose to remain silent!
Along the way, Li Zhi suddenly said: "It's strange, why the Turkic soldiers are ahead..."
Changsun Wuji leaned over, just about to speak.But Li Zhi said again: "Needless to say, it seems that they can't wait to praise martial arts, very good, let them praise!" He didn't allow Changsun Wuji to talk to him.
Changsun Wuji smiled lightly, and really didn't say anything, but thought in his heart: "This child, because of a woman... the old man loves him for nothing!"
Wang Ping'an led the Turkic cavalry and rode his horses ahead, moving faster and faster!
At the head of the Xuanwu Gate, Mi Xiaomiao grabbed the battlements and shouted: "Come on, come on, empress, the emperor is back!"
Wu Meiniang said ah, stood up, walked slowly to the battlements, looked at the dust head in the distance, and the galloping army, she thought to herself: "Finally, this day, this moment, finally came! "
After straightening the phoenix crown, Wu Meiniang said loudly: "Get ready to pick me up and play music!"
Wang Ping'an rushed to the front. Although he couldn't see the people on the Xuanwu Gate, he knew that Wu Meiniang was standing there!
While running, he raised his right hand high into the air, and the Turkic soldiers looked at him together, slightly leaving the saddle, ready to charge!
Wang Ping'an's hand has not fallen for a long time!He knows that as soon as his hand falls, the old history will end and a new history will begin!
But, can you do it yourself, can you replace Wu Meiniang and bring prosperity to this country?
On both sides of the avenue, the cheers of the people were deafening; above the avenue, hooves roared and iron armor clanged...
-
The years are like flying knives, and the knives are merciless.No matter how youthful and flamboyant a boy is, he will inevitably grow a beard, and no matter how babbling a baby is, there will be a day when there will always be a meeting between the two.
At this time, ten years have passed since the Xuanwumen remonstrance, no matter how heavy the storm in Chang'an City, the common people just regard it as a chat after dinner, adding a little fun to the ordinary life.
On the Grand Canal, a long fleet of ships is slowly advancing. On one of the large ships in the team, there is smoke from the kitchen, as if someone is cooking.
In the cabin, watched by all the maids, Li Yiren threw the spatula into the iron pot and sighed: "It seems that I can't wash my hands and make soup, this dish is burnt again! Forget it , it’s better for you to fry, just say that I did it, and I did it under my guidance!”
Among the group of maids, a little girl squeezed in, and the little girl shouted: "Mother, you've overcooked the vegetables again, I'll tell dad to go!" Then, she stepped forward and ran towards the bow of the boat.
Li Yiren shouted: "Taiping, come back to me, if you dare to be naughty, I will ask your father to punish you for endorsement!"
The little girl giggled, ran to the bow of the boat, and said with a smile: "Father, mother has overcooked the vegetables again, do you want to eat it, and then close your eyes and praise me?"
Years of habits, Wang Pingan has changed, he no longer likes to touch his nose, but instead touch his beard.Wang Ping'an bent down, picked up the little girl, and said with a smile: "You have learned how to sue at such a young age, but you can still do well when you grow up. You can't find your husband's family!"
The little girl smiled and said, "I heard from Uncle Ouyang that I don't have to worry about getting married! Dad, I've memorized all the Taiping Ci poems you made, do you want to listen?"
Wang Ping'an smiled and said, "Okay, you can recite it and show it to Dad!"
The little girl lay in his arms, and said softly: "Family affairs are peaceful, and the girl walks around her knees; the world is stable, and the fish and wheat are fragrant; the moon in Chang'an illuminates a hundred thousand miles of rivers and mountains, and the road is long. I am not alone..."
(End of this chapter)
Changsun Wuji took out a map of the Gyeonggi area, pointed at the map, and said, "Our current location is here, fifty miles away from Chang'an City, which is the distance from us to Xuanwu Gate, and we cannot enter Chang'an City if we launch a military remonstrance. In the city, the people are crowded, not only can we not get close to Wu Meiniang easily, but it is easy for her to run away, if we can't catch up with her, catch her and let her return to the palace, then everything will be over."
Wang Pingan said: "Behind the Xuanwu gate is the imperial palace. Of course we can't go in. The army praises martial arts, so how can anyone boast about entering the imperial palace?"
Changsun Wuji said: "Of course, we will not enter the Xuanwu Gate. We are just cheering to the emperor and the Wuyao girl to show our allegiance there. The city gate we walk through is the Kaiyuan Gate in the west, and then we will go all the way. , go to Suzaku Street, exit Mingde Gate, our army will station outside the city."
Wang Ping'an snorted, and said, "Yes, it should be to go away from the far gate. We are going back to expand the territory. This is different from other battles. It's just that I haven't walked through this gate before. I don't know how the surrounding situation is. How should I proceed?" soldiers?"
Changsun Wuji and Chu Suiliang looked up at him together, and said in unison: "We are not going to raise troops at the Kaiyuan Gate, but at the Xuanwu Gate!"
Wang Ping'an was taken aback, and said, "Xuanwu Gate? We can't even enter this gate, we can only cheer a few times below, and there are too many guards here, how can we raise troops here?"
Of course he knew that Li Shimin had successfully raised his troops in this most dangerous place back then, but it's different now!When Li Shimin raised his troops, there were internal support in the palace. Whether it was the general or the eunuchs in the palace, they were all Li Shimin's people, but now they have no internal support in the palace. If they attack from the Xuanwu Gate, the chances of success are almost infinite close to zero!
Changsun Wuji frowned and said, "There are too many guards to count? As the general leading the army, why don't you even know the deployment of Xuanwu Sect's troops?"
Wang Pingan blinked. He only knew that the army guarding the Xuanwu Gate belonged to the Beiya, but he never cared about how it was deployed.But in such an important place, of course there should be many people, so could it be that there are very few people?
Changsun Wuji said: "On weekdays, the army strength of the Beiya is 800 people, but tomorrow we will boast of martial arts, and the emperor will go out of the palace, and the army strength will be doubled, that is to say, it should be 600 people. But the 600 people People must be distributed throughout the northern city wall, once the troops are scattered, the Xuanwumen's troops will be left with 1000 or [-] people."
Wang Ping'an thought: "How is this force calculated? How to arrange the other city gates? The other city gates don't care about them, but there are quite a few left. You can't get in at all!"
Chu Suiliang said: "That's right, the Xuanwu Gate that is usually guarded is a large regiment, with more troops than ordinary guards." He was referring to a large regiment of 600 people. After doubling, it became 1000 or [-] people.
Changsun Wuji said again: "The emperor will go out of the palace to welcome us tomorrow, and the imperial army he brought with him is 100 warriors with halberds and a flag team of 500 people, which is another [-] people less."
Wang Pingan was a little relieved, and said: "Then there are only 700 people left in Xuanwu Sect!"
Chu Suiliang shook his head and said: "It's not 700 people, but 500 people. You forgot, Xuanwu Gate has two gates, inside and outside. Among the 700 people, there are 200 people who have to guard the inner gate at the back. Usually there are 100 people. And this 200 people are not allowed to give orders, they cannot support any place, they must stick to the inner gate, and seeing that there is a change outside, they will not go to support Wu Yaonv, but immediately put down the iron gate of the inner gate, so that we can't Going in, unless the leader is our internal response, but we have no internal response, we are afraid that once the iron gate of the inner gate is lowered, we will not be able to enter, but they will also come out, and Wu Yaonv can't enter either, she can only Escape for your life along the city wall. In fact, only the last 500 people around her can participate in the battle, and we have to deal with these 500 people!"
Changsun Wuji added: "And we brought 5000 Turkic soldiers!"
Wang Pingan was stunned for a moment, and a bad premonition suddenly rose in his heart, as if he had been calculated!
Changsun Wuji went on to say: "What we launched was a military remonstrance, not a rebellion, so when the emperor is outside the city, we cannot let the Turkic soldiers approach him to avoid accidents, but the old man should lead the three thousand guards who are not sick, go To protect the emperor, don't let him get close to the Xuanwu Gate where the battle is about to take place. Three thousand against five hundred can definitely control the situation."
The bad feeling became stronger and stronger, and Wang Ping'an became more certain that he must have been calculated!
Changsun Wuji said: "The affairs around the emperor will be handled by the old man, but if you are not sick, you will take five thousand Turkic soldiers to attack the Xuanwu Gate, because the Turkic soldiers only listen to you, and the old man can't command!"
Wang Pingan nodded slowly, but thought in his heart, bad, I am very likely to be demolished by crossing the river!You bastard is not a good thing. Before using me, I was thinking of how to get rid of me. Wu Meiniang is not a good person, and neither is Changsun Wuji!
Wang Pingan was angry in his heart, but there was no angry expression on his face. He was still listening "seriously" and nodded slowly.
Changsun Wuji saw his erratic expression, thinking that he didn't see the danger, and then continued: "Wu Yaonv will not accompany the emperor, she came out of the city to welcome us, she is not a canonized queen, so she just You can wait for us to go back at the gate of Xuanwumen, and the canonization ceremony will start once we go back."
Wang Pingan nodded again.Chu Suiliang couldn't bear it in his heart. He and Changsun Wuji's friendship for many years, of course he knew what the consequences of this matter would be, but such a major event, even if Wang Ping'an was sacrificed, was worth it.However, he decided in his heart that even if he tried his best afterwards, he still wanted to keep the king safe from death, so let's do our best!
Changsun Wuji pointed to the Xuanwu Gate, and said again: "Wu Yaonu will only have five hundred soldiers by her side, and once the Turkic soldiers attack, they don't need to seize the bridge immediately, but first use arrows to control the outer gate of the Xuanwu Gate. If the city gate cannot be closed, the arrows can also control the top of the city, so the drawbridge cannot be raised. At this time, the soldiers at the inner gate will see that there is a change, and they will immediately get down the iron gate, cutting off our way of attack , also cut off the retreat path of Wu Yaonu."
Speaking of this, Changsun Wuji paused and looked at Chu Suiliang.Chu Suiliang sighed in his heart, but he understood what he meant, and he said: "Wu Yaonv can't enter the palace at this time, so she can only run along the city wall, but no matter which direction she runs from east to west, within two quarters of an hour, she can go to the palace. Without any support, as long as [-] Turkic soldiers enter the outer gate, there are only [-] forbidden troops in front of them. , where the soldiers are densely packed, the arrows can decide the outcome, and it is inevitable that the Wuyao girl will be killed!"
Wang Pingan nodded silently. Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji were both killed by arrows in the Xuanwu Gate. This is experience!
Changsun Wuji asked: "The specific plan is this, what do you think of the disease-free?"
Wang Ping'an was speechless for a while, he already understood in his heart that this coup has been calculated to such an extent that there is no possibility of failure, which is more certain than the coup launched by Li Shimin back then.However, Changsun Wuji only talked about the process of military remonstrance, but did not talk about the result of military remonstrance, and he didn't mention a single word about how to deal with the aftermath!
Such a precise plan, no matter how experienced Changsun Wuji is, it is impossible to come up with it on the spot. It is very likely that he thought it up when he was in Yingzhou, and the number and quality of the troops he brought back were not as good as before. It's all calculated, but he kept it a secret and didn't mention it, and he foolishly didn't think about it, and was kept in the dark until now!
Why did Changsun Wuji lead the guards to "defend" Li Zhi?First, there are many soldiers, so he must be able to "protect". Second, the bodyguards are all citizens of the Tang Dynasty and will not hurt Li Zhi, so Changsun Wuji can pretend to be a good person, and he will only be by Li Zhi's side from beginning to end. Do not participate in bloody massacres.
After the remonstrance was over, Changsun Wuji could even say that he didn't know about it beforehand, and it was all done by Wang Pingan alone. Anyway, Wu Yaonv died and his goal was achieved. Loyal minister, what can't be done?
The river is over, why do we need bridges?
Wang Pingan led [-] Turkic soldiers to attack Xuanwu Gate, and he was sure to win, but what happened after the victory?He was leading the Turkic soldiers, not the government soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, but the Fanbang army. He led the Fanbang army to attack Xuanwumen, is that okay?No matter how much Li Zhi trusted him, he would not let him go!
Why 5000 people versus 500 people?Because the Turkic soldiers must be able to win, but why must it be 5000?Because if there is an accident here at Xuanwu Gate, someone must run to find reinforcements, and the nearest barracks, if they come to support, it will take more than half an hour. It is impossible for the Weifu army to support it to be less than [-], and the Gyeonggi Prefecture soldiers are all the elite among the elite, not inferior to the elite Turkic soldiers, on the contrary they will be stronger!
As long as Changsun Wuji said that the Turkic soldiers rebelled, and the Weifu army rushed forward, all the Turkic soldiers would be wiped out, including Wang Ping'an himself.Even if Wang Ping'an survived by luck, what awaits him is a dead dog!
This military remonstrance was planned by Changsun Wuji, and the real executor was Wang Pingan. The people who died were [-] forbidden soldiers and [-] Turkic soldiers, and things will surely develop. The military remonstrance was planned and executed by Wang Pingan. But in the end, Changsun Wuji suppressed the remonstrance and got rid of the rebels for Emperor Li Zhi!
The whole thing is, the military remonstrance was successful, and Wu Meiniang, a witch who harmed the country and the people, was eradicated; the suppression of the military remonstrance was successful, Wang Ping'an and his Turkic soldiers were killed, and even after the arrival of the guard brigade, Wang Ping'an's three thousand guards were all captured; finally, Sun Wuji was innocent from the beginning to the end, loyal to the emperor, and made great contributions in suppressing rebellious ministers. He is still the first minister of the Tang Dynasty, and his position is more consolidated and unshakable!
After Wang Pingan figured this out, the bad premonition gradually disappeared, replaced by a chill, and the back of his spine felt chilly.This is really a battle. Before the battle begins, the result has already been determined!
Scholar-bureaucrats really kill people with their minds, they don't have blood on their hands!
Wang Ping'an was angry in his heart, but the angrier he was, the more normal his expression became. He bit his lip and said, "This plan is very appropriate. I think it will work. It will definitely succeed."
Changsun Wuji and Chu Suiliang breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, and Changsun Wuji said: "Okay, let's do it like this."
He turned to Chu Suiliang and said, "Brother Chu, please go back to the city quickly and tell Brother Fang and the others about the matter." Bar!"
Wang Pingan asked intentionally: "Should I recruit them all here, and my uncle will tell them in person?"
Changsun Wuji waved his hand and said: "No need for this, the old man is not very good at motivating them, so it's better for you to talk about it."
Wang Pingan hummed, and went out of the tent with Chu Suiliang.Outside the tent, the two walked a short distance, and Chu Suiliang suddenly whispered: "No disease, this matter is very risky, but the old man promises that no matter what happens, the old man will take good care of your family. We have others to take care of our family. Don't think too much, just be loyal to the country!" He patted Wang Ping'an on the shoulder, got on his horse and left.
Wang Pingan stood there, speechless for a long time.Although Chu Suiliang's words did not contain hints, they were only talking about the risks of this military remonstrance, but because he had already analyzed the results of the military remonstrance, his mentality was different, and when he heard the words, his reaction would naturally be different.He knew that Chu Suiliang had also reached the result of this remonstrance, but he couldn't say it clearly, so he assured himself that no matter what, Chu Suiliang remembered the benefits he had given him and would take good care of his family on his behalf !
In the struggle in the imperial court, it is normal for you to cut me and I to beat you.Today's allies may be tomorrow's enemies. To put it bluntly, it's just a combination of interests.However, Wang Pingan didn't like this kind of intrigue very much. Whether in the court or among the people, he always appeared as a good old man, not aggressive. Very little.But he did good deeds without expecting anything in return, but he can't cause disaster instead!
From the perspective of a minister, there is nothing doubtful about Changsun Wuji's actions. The imperial court is a big river and lake, and people can't help themselves in the rivers and lakes.Besides, as the eldest grandson Wuji, there is no need to talk about loyalty with Wang Pingan. Wang Pingan is very kind to him, but eldest grandson Wuji is not mean to him. Speaking of the two, neither one owes the other.
Just like in the Three Kingdoms era, when the heroes fought against each other, the relationship between Shu Han and Soochow was very close, and they joined forces to fight against Cao, but for the benefit of Jingzhou, in the blink of an eye, Shu Han and Soochow could go to war, and after a fight , Beat all the three Taoyuan brothers to death, but for the sake of profit, in a blink of an eye, they were buddies again, and then joined forces to deal with Cao Wei.
It's normal to separate and combine. There are no permanent enemies, only permanent interests.
But no matter how normal things are, it's okay to see others are normal, but once things fall on his own head, let himself be "normal", but Wang Ping'an feels extremely uncomfortable.
Wu Meiniang didn't turn against him, and things could develop later, and the two of them could only live in mutual suspicion. The danger would always exist, and it would explode at any time; As a result, [-]% out of [-]% of him will become a scapegoat. Even if he succeeds in his military advice, he will no longer be trusted by Li Zhi, unless he is a powerful minister and controls the emperor. he?Maybe before it's his turn, Sun Wuji, the minister of power, will get rid of him as a candidate for power minister first!
Wang Pingan shook his head and was in a dilemma. Now he is in a dilemma. No matter which side he supports, there will be serious consequences, which is not good for him!
He didn't move the place, and the thoughts in his mind kept turning, but he couldn't think of a good way, and he felt a headache and nausea.He knew that this was the result of excessive use of the brain. In this case, there was no time to take a nap, but at least take a nap, otherwise he would faint.
At this moment, someone whispered behind him, but it was his confidant Ouyang Li.Ouyang Li whispered: "Master, why are you standing here? What's the matter? Let's go back to our tent and talk about it!"
Wang Pingan hummed softly, then turned around and said, "Did you hear what was said in the big tent just now?" He did not forbid his subordinates to eavesdrop on his discussions with others. If he didn't want his subordinates to know, he would explain in advance and let his subordinates If he stepped back, Ouyang Li would understand, and if he didn't say it in advance, he would allow his subordinates to eavesdrop. After all, he still had to rely on his subordinates to handle anything.
Ouyang Li nodded, and said: "Chu Suiliang came late at night, there must be something urgent, the subordinates naturally have to listen outside the tent, lest they plot against the master."
"You understand it too, can you hear that they are plotting against me?" Wang Ping'an whispered, and he walked towards his tent while talking.
Ouyang Li whispered: "I don't quite understand it, but I feel that something is not right. It is such a big matter to make a military remonstrance, why doesn't Master Changsun talk about the benefits after it is done?"
Wang Pingan snorted and said, "Benefits? Holding the banner of loyalty to the country, if you talk about benefits, wouldn't it be a disadvantage in character? benefits, which will lead to dissent, so we don't talk about it."
The two entered the tent, Ouyang Li said: "But if he doesn't talk about it, the subordinates will become suspicious, otherwise they won't be suspicious."
Wang Pingan sat down on the carpet and sighed: "If he does this with you, he will talk about it, but if he does it with me, then there is no need. You and I are in different situations and of course have different ideas. Strange, how can he not know the reason!"
Ouyang Li said, thinking about it was right, he opened the curtain and called all Ouyang brothers in.Among the interest groups, the Ouyang brothers are definitely with Wang Pingan, and their wealth and life are all tied to Wang Pingan. They can only be with Wang Pingan, and there is no possibility of rebellion.And even if they rebel, others will not believe them, and as Wang Ping'an's confidantes, if they rebel, they are not famous generals, they can only be regarded as an outstanding group of capable people and strangers. Once they betray the original owner, No matter who it is, they dare not use them anymore. Their future, and even their lives, have come to an end. Once Wang Ping'an is finished, they will be the first group of people to be silenced.
For his absolutely trustworthy subordinates, Wang Ping'an had nothing to hide, he told the matter, and he also talked about the consequences of the military remonstrance.The Ouyang brothers turned pale with fright, they couldn't believe that they would be involved in such a dangerous thing as military remonstrance.
Ouyang Yi asked: "Master, the consequences you mentioned are just your own guesses, right? Maybe the eldest grandson Xiangye will not deal with you like this."
Ouyang Shuang said: "But it's not sure, according to me, the eldest grandson would deal with the master like this, ninety percent out of ten!"
The Ouyang brothers talked a lot, and their opinions gradually came to an agreement. Although they used to be reckless, but because they used to live a life of licking blood, they were more sensitive to the coming of danger. Not too good.But horses are in the middle of the road, and now they can only enter, but they can't turn back. How to deal with it has become a problem.
After discussing for a while, Wang Pingan said: "There is only one way to go now, that is, we must force Changsun Wuji to admit that he is the mastermind at the beginning of the military remonstrance, instead of shifting the responsibility to us, as long as he If we can share the risk with other ministers, the risk will be much smaller when we work together."
Ouyang Li sighed: "It would be great if Di Renjie was here. This kid has the most evil ideas, and maybe he can come up with some good ideas."
Wang Pingan snorted, and said: "He is guarding those royal relatives, and things are very difficult. Although those royal relatives were imprisoned in Dali Temple because of Wu Meiniang's framing, it was the emperor's will after all. Otherwise, Wu Meiniang has no right to lock them up. Di Renjie wants to imprison these people and appease them, so that they don't misunderstand the emperor and don't have resentment in their hearts, this task is very difficult!"
Ouyang Li thought for a while, and suddenly, his eyes lit up, and he whispered: "Master, Changsun Wuji wants to be by the emperor's side when he is admonishing, but he uses our bodyguards, if something happens to you, our bodyguards How can it stop, they will definitely counterattack, the imperial guards around the emperor are not our brothers' opponents? If something happens to you, doesn't it mean that something will happen to the emperor, even if nothing big happens to the emperor, but as long as you shout, the eldest grandson Something will happen to Wuji, the guards only listen to you, but not to elder grandson Wuji, he is surrounded by our people, the danger is even greater!"
Wang Pingan said, thinking about it is right, I just thought that Changsun Wuji would cross the river and tear down the bridge, and would plot against him, but under the headache, he forgot that he could also counter Changsun Wuji!This year, no, not this year, but every year is the same, whoever has soldiers is the boss, and if you have soldiers, you are the boss!
But why did Chu Suiliang say those words again before leaving?Yes, Changsun Wuji did not tell Chu Suiliang the real purpose of his remonstrance, and Chu Suiliang thought the same as himself.However, it is estimated that Chu Suiliang should have understood the smell by now!
Wang Pingan said: "Changsun Wuji is going to drive me to a dead end first, the end of the dead road is a cliff, and if I don't jump off, I have to turn back, but when I turn back, the dead road has been blocked by him, so I want to survive , I can only listen to him! But what is he doing that makes me have to listen to him?"
He had to listen to Changsun Wuji, which meant that he couldn't betray temporarily, but what could make Wang Pingan suddenly betray regardless of his original plan?That must be the ultimate purpose of this remonstrance, and Changsun Wuji didn't tell anyone about this purpose, not even a hint!
Everyone in the tent looked at me and I looked at you. Suddenly, everyone said in unison: "Your Majesty!"
Wang Pingan nodded heavily, and said, "Yes, it's the emperor! I'm so stupid, I didn't think of this until now, and I almost didn't think of it!"
Changsun Wuji knew that the relationship between Wang Pingan and Li Zhi was as good as that of his own brothers. Even if there was a conflict, it would be after the remonstrance. But before the remonstrance was over, Changsun Wuji wanted to do something to Li Zhi. He was afraid that Wang Ping'an would rescue him. Li Zhi forced Wang Pingan so that Wang Pingan did not dare to rescue Li Zhi.
Because Changsun Wuji knew Wang Ping'an very well, Wang Ping'an would never do something that would kill them both.If Wang Pingan found out what Changsun Wuji was going to do to Li Zhi, he might rush over with Turkic soldiers. Changsun Wuji was dead, but in the chaos, the government soldiers would definitely think that Wang Pingan was going to rebel. In the fight, no explanation is easy to use, we can only talk about it after the fight, Changsun Wuji will not survive, and Wang Ping'an will also have to finish, this must be the result of both!
But Wang Pingan will definitely not accept this result, he is unwilling to die, so he has to accept another result, which is relatively milder!
Ouyang Li said in horror: "Could it be possible that Master Sun wants to establish a new king? What about the current emperor?"
At the same time, everyone thought of the last Xuanwumen change. The political opponents at that time were also killed, but the then emperor Li Yuan lost his power and became the Supreme Emperor, so even if Li Yuan was dissatisfied with the Xuanwumen change, he could not do anything. Take any act of revenge!
Remonstrance, using force to "persuade" the emperor, and those who initiate remonstrance will definitely not end well. Whether it is an incident in Chang'an in this era, or after the name is changed to Xi'an in the future, those who initiate remonstrance will lose power. This is certain.And if the initiator does not want to lose power, there is only one way to go, and that is to completely control the superiors. For Changsun Wuji, it is to completely control the emperor of Datang!
However, Changsun Wuji can no longer completely control Li Zhi, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty. If he can completely control it, he will launch a military remonstrance when he is full?How could he be willing to do such a risky thing until the last moment?After the military remonstrance, there will be a estrangement between him and Li Zhi, which will never be eliminated, but Li Zhi has the support of the ministers, so Changsun Wuji's end will inevitably be quite bleak, and Li Zhi will find an opportunity sooner or later He gave except!
Then, after the remonstrance, two possible results emerged, either after a short period of time, Li Zhi replaced Changsun Wuji, or Changsun Wuji replaced Li Zhi.In this way, choose one of the two, and the final result will appear. Changsun Wuji will not be replaced, so Li Zhi can only be replaced, just like Li Yuan was quickly replaced after the last Xuanwu Gate change!
Wang Ping'an murmured: "I understand, the Xuanwu Sect's remonstrance this time is exactly the same as the last coup d'état. The end result is actually the same. It's a change of emperor!"
The Ouyang brothers said in unison: "Put on Prince Li Zhong, little boy, son emperor!"
Changsun Wuji can definitely control the little prince Li Zhong, and as long as Wang Pingan leads the Turkic soldiers to attack the Xuanwu Gate and kill Wu Meiniang, at the most critical moment, he threatens Li Zhi with tears on his face. , let him stop trusting Wu Meiniang, and for the sake of the Tang Dynasty, abdicate and become the Supreme Emperor... There is no possibility that Li Zhi will not agree. Li Zhi must have fainted from fright at that time. Even if he refused, the eldest grandson Wuji would also yell at the officials, the army, and the stunned common people, saying that Li Zhi agreed to abdicate and become the Supreme Emperor!
Anyway, Changsun Wuji did this kind of thing before, forcing Li Yuan to become the Supreme Emperor like lightning, so what if he forced Li Zhi again?What's more, forcing Li Zhi is much easier than forcing Li Yuan!When Wang Pingan settled Wu Meiniang's matter, and the brigade soldiers arrived again, even if Wang Pingan wanted to betray him, it was too late. The raw rice was cooked, and Wang Pingan could only bite the bullet and accept his fate!
Ouyang Li said: "Under that situation, if you think about it with your toes, the emperor can only abdicate, and Li Zhong is definitely the emperor!"
Ouyang Shuang said: "Master, you have been used, and you have been used so thoroughly that there is no scum left!"
Wang Pingan said, "Don't be afraid of being used. Being able to be used means that I still have some value!" After he finished speaking, he leaned back, closed his eyes, and began to calculate.
The Ouyang brothers were silent for a while, it can be seen that Wang Ping'an has not opened his eyes, and he couldn't hold back anymore, so they began to discuss.They all knew the result of the remonstrance, so their minds naturally came alive.They didn't care about the struggle between Wang Ping'an and Changsun Wuji, Wu Meiniang, Li Zhi and others. They believed that since they knew the result, Wang Ping'an must have a solution!
What they are really interested in is: son emperor!
Changsun Wuji wanted to be an emperor, so why couldn't Wang Ping'an be established?Anyway, things have developed to this point, there is no suspense anymore, it depends on who dares to do it, Changsun Wuji used Wang Pingan first, but at the last moment, if Wang Pingan pushes the boat along the way, then at the most critical moment, he will It was the critical moment when Changsun Wuji forced Li Zhi to become the Supreme Emperor. As long as Wang Pingan used the fastest speed to put down the Turkic soldiers first, he himself, under the protection of the Ouyang brothers, rushed directly to Li Zhi and Changsun Wuji. By his side, he can directly counter everyone and become an emperor!
Changsun Wuji came up with a plan, so he was the one who made the noodles;However, if Wang Pingan made a sudden move and snatched the cake, he would have eaten the cake!
As soon as Li Zhi abdicated and became the Supreme Emperor, what was announced in public was a deadlock that could no longer be resolved.Then, the rest is who controls the emperor!
The Ouyang brothers were extremely excited. Once Wang Pingan controlled the Son Emperor, he would definitely replace Changsun Wuji, and would be more powerful than Changsun Wuji. It was even possible that after a few years, he could Instead, just like Yang Jian, Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty, set up a Zen position and establish a new dynasty, then the Ouyang brothers will be the founding fathers of the country!
Wang Pingan closed his eyes and listened to the discussions of his subordinates. Although they were all rebellious words, he was very touched when he heard them, and his heart was beating wildly!Will he become a person like Yang Jian?Will he become someone like Zhao Kuangyin?If things come to pass, then he will replace Changsun Wuji, not only can he control the son emperor, but also because he has received so many good person cards, is very popular and has a good reputation, in a short period of time, the ministers and the people will not Against him, after several years of management, as the Ouyang brothers discussed, it is not impossible to add a yellow robe!
But being an emperor, I never thought about it. All I thought about was how to support Wu Meiniang and let Wu Meiniang create a prosperous Tang Dynasty!
However, what Wu Meiniang can do, why can't she do it herself?I just didn't want to think about it before, because there was no chance, but now the opportunity is in front of me, and I can grab it as soon as I stretch out my hand. Do I want to grab this once-in-a-lifetime chance, only this time, and there will never be a second chance. ?
He really can't make a choice!
Seeing that Wang Ping'an kept his eyes closed, Ouyang Li whispered: "Master, don't hesitate any longer, the opportunity is not lost, and the failure will never come again. Don't stop, you will be disturbed by it!"
The Ouyang brothers also said: "After passing this village, there will be no such shop anymore. Even if it is for self-protection, we have to do it!"
Wang Pingan slowly opened his eyes, and said, "I have to do it to protect myself! But, I always feel sorry for the emperor!"
Ouyang Li said: "I'm sorry, the emperor. It's Changsun Wuji and Wu Meiniang, not you, the master. You just did the right thing at the last moment. It's all for the sake of the Tang Dynasty and the world. what!"
The Ouyang brothers nodded together, and said in unison: "Yes, this is all for the common people in the world, for the people of Li, and for my Tang Dynasty to be a bright and bright world..."
Wang Pingan waved his hand and said, "Stop doing this, who will believe what you say!" He touched his nose, and said, "It would be great if I could save Wu Meiniang's life. The emperor will be very happy when he becomes the emperor. Depression, with her by my side, can also relieve worries."
Ouyang Li saw that his tone was loose, and immediately said: "This is easy to handle. When the battle starts, the subordinates will go to the city in person and catch her. Just let her live. It's not difficult, but if she can't afford Yao'e in the future son, it will be difficult."
Wang Ping'an whispered: "Actually, that's not difficult."
The people in the tent did not speak any more, and fell silent for a while.
After a while, Wang Pingan said: "Then try it! You have to try everything, maybe we are the ones who created the prosperity of the Celestial Dynasty!"
The Ouyang brothers were overjoyed, and they said in unison: "It's time to try! Master, you have so many good ways to make the people live a prosperous life, and you invented the big water wheel, and you have done so many good things. It proves that the prosperity of the Celestial Dynasty can be created by the master!"
Wang Ping'an waved his hand and said, "Then, I will thank you all!"
The Ouyang brothers knelt down together and said in unison: "Don't dare to obey!" They got up, got out of the big tent, and went to give orders to the generals. In order to prevent accidents, they also did not tell the result of the remonstrance, but only the process. to make sure things run smoothly!
Wang Pingan stayed alone in the tent, sighed softly, and thought: "Work hard, from now on, I will never have a leisurely day!"
The sky is brightening and everything is ready.Because there was a big thing to do, the soldiers didn't pull out the camp, they put the tents and other things here, and everyone set off lightly.
Changsun Wuji rode a war horse. Looking at Wang Pingan, who was fully armed, he asked, "How? Is there any objection?"
Wang Pingan said: "My nephew didn't tell the story, but just told them to obey orders, so no one objected!"
Changsun Wuji sighed, and said: "Actually, it's okay to say it, at least let the generals know about it, so that they won't be dazed and afraid to act!"
Wang Pingan said: "That's not true. Their families are all in my hands, and they dare not disobey orders. Besides, they are not asked to attack the emperor, so they have no reason to hesitate. Most of the eight thousand generals People don't even know who the Martial Demon Girl is!"
Changsun Wuji nodded, and said: "The soldiers recruited in Yunzhou, as well as the Turkic soldiers... Well, you are right, they can't possibly know who the Wu Yaonv is!"
The two marched towards Chang'an City with their troops.
Chang'an.No matter the ministers or the common people, they already knew that the army returned to the court today, and Goguryeo was officially included in the territory of the Tang Dynasty.Although the new queen is not a newlywed, she can see what the queen looks like and satisfy the curiosity of the common people. A woman who can be the emperor's wife must look like a flower!
Li Zhi and Wu Meiniang got up early, after washing and grooming, Li Zhi put on the royal robe, and Wu Meiniang put on the queen's clothes.
After straightening the crown for Li Zhi, Wu Meiniang said, "Your Majesty, how long will it take for you to come back?"
Li Zhi said: "At least it will be noon. Mei Niang, you will have to wait at the city gate for several hours by yourself, so there is no need to get dressed right now. This dress also has a phoenix crown. It is very heavy and uncomfortable to wear. !"
Wu Meiniang said with a smile: "I like to wear it!" She and Li Zhi held hands, and went out of the Palace of Ganlu together to the Xuanwu Gate.
When they arrived at Xuanwu Gate, Wu Meiniang boarded the tower, while Li Zhi rode out of the city and headed north under the protection of the imperial army and ministers.
Li Zhi was on the horse, turned around, and waved at Wu Meiniang on the tower, Wu Meiniang smiled back at him, and waved her hand too, the two of them seemed inseparable.
In the minister's team, Chu Suiliang and Fang Xuanling looked up at Wu Meiniang together, Fang Xuanling whispered: "There will be no accidents, right?"
Chu Suiliang was stunned for a while, and replied in a low voice: "No way, Mr. Wuji has arranged everything, so there shouldn't be any accidents!"
Fang Xuanling sighed, and said in a low voice: "It's a pity for Wang Ping'an. But... maybe, don't be surprised. The old man is restless and always has an ominous feeling!"
"So am I!" Chu Suiliang whispered.
The two sighed in unison, the matter has come to this point, it is too late to say anything, I only hope that Changsun Wuji can control the situation!
There were tens of thousands of people watching the excitement. Amidst the cheers, Li Zhi led all the civil and military officials and rode away to the north.
Less than an hour later, Li Zhi and Wang Ping'an gathered together, just like in the past, seeing the big ceremony, the whole army shouted long live!
Wang Ping'an and Changsun Wuji wanted to talk to Li Zhi, but Li Zhi waved his hand and said, "Dear dears, we will talk about it at the court meeting. Now we are just boasting, and we will follow my arrangement! "
He had been repeatedly told by Wu Meiniang not to talk to Changsun Wuji and Wang Pingan, but to keep them shut up, otherwise they would definitely express their opinions on the sealing of the queen. At this time, they should not be allowed to object. If the scene gets embarrassing, there will be another cry or something, which will be very detrimental to the matter of sealing the empress.So Li Zhi resolutely refused to give Wang Pingan and Changsun Wuji a chance to speak!
What surprised Li Zhi was that Wang Ping'an and Changsun Wuji were so obedient and shut up at the same time. Changsun Wuji was by his side, while Wang Pingan led the army, and neither expressed their opinion on the Queen's Seal, but chose to remain silent!
Along the way, Li Zhi suddenly said: "It's strange, why the Turkic soldiers are ahead..."
Changsun Wuji leaned over, just about to speak.But Li Zhi said again: "Needless to say, it seems that they can't wait to praise martial arts, very good, let them praise!" He didn't allow Changsun Wuji to talk to him.
Changsun Wuji smiled lightly, and really didn't say anything, but thought in his heart: "This child, because of a woman... the old man loves him for nothing!"
Wang Ping'an led the Turkic cavalry and rode his horses ahead, moving faster and faster!
At the head of the Xuanwu Gate, Mi Xiaomiao grabbed the battlements and shouted: "Come on, come on, empress, the emperor is back!"
Wu Meiniang said ah, stood up, walked slowly to the battlements, looked at the dust head in the distance, and the galloping army, she thought to herself: "Finally, this day, this moment, finally came! "
After straightening the phoenix crown, Wu Meiniang said loudly: "Get ready to pick me up and play music!"
Wang Ping'an rushed to the front. Although he couldn't see the people on the Xuanwu Gate, he knew that Wu Meiniang was standing there!
While running, he raised his right hand high into the air, and the Turkic soldiers looked at him together, slightly leaving the saddle, ready to charge!
Wang Ping'an's hand has not fallen for a long time!He knows that as soon as his hand falls, the old history will end and a new history will begin!
But, can you do it yourself, can you replace Wu Meiniang and bring prosperity to this country?
On both sides of the avenue, the cheers of the people were deafening; above the avenue, hooves roared and iron armor clanged...
-
The years are like flying knives, and the knives are merciless.No matter how youthful and flamboyant a boy is, he will inevitably grow a beard, and no matter how babbling a baby is, there will be a day when there will always be a meeting between the two.
At this time, ten years have passed since the Xuanwumen remonstrance, no matter how heavy the storm in Chang'an City, the common people just regard it as a chat after dinner, adding a little fun to the ordinary life.
On the Grand Canal, a long fleet of ships is slowly advancing. On one of the large ships in the team, there is smoke from the kitchen, as if someone is cooking.
In the cabin, watched by all the maids, Li Yiren threw the spatula into the iron pot and sighed: "It seems that I can't wash my hands and make soup, this dish is burnt again! Forget it , it’s better for you to fry, just say that I did it, and I did it under my guidance!”
Among the group of maids, a little girl squeezed in, and the little girl shouted: "Mother, you've overcooked the vegetables again, I'll tell dad to go!" Then, she stepped forward and ran towards the bow of the boat.
Li Yiren shouted: "Taiping, come back to me, if you dare to be naughty, I will ask your father to punish you for endorsement!"
The little girl giggled, ran to the bow of the boat, and said with a smile: "Father, mother has overcooked the vegetables again, do you want to eat it, and then close your eyes and praise me?"
Years of habits, Wang Pingan has changed, he no longer likes to touch his nose, but instead touch his beard.Wang Ping'an bent down, picked up the little girl, and said with a smile: "You have learned how to sue at such a young age, but you can still do well when you grow up. You can't find your husband's family!"
The little girl smiled and said, "I heard from Uncle Ouyang that I don't have to worry about getting married! Dad, I've memorized all the Taiping Ci poems you made, do you want to listen?"
Wang Ping'an smiled and said, "Okay, you can recite it and show it to Dad!"
The little girl lay in his arms, and said softly: "Family affairs are peaceful, and the girl walks around her knees; the world is stable, and the fish and wheat are fragrant; the moon in Chang'an illuminates a hundred thousand miles of rivers and mountains, and the road is long. I am not alone..."
