Thinking of this, Li Shan felt itchy and wanted to send people to Fangzhou to investigate. On the one hand, he wanted to gossip about the inside story of the historical Yang Wenqian incident, and on the other hand, he wanted to make some preparations in advance.
But after much thought, Li Shan still didn't dare to make a move, for fear of missing the mark... If Li Yuan caught the mark afterwards, he would be so speechless that he couldn't explain it.
Even if Li Shimin caught him, it would be troublesome. It would be even worse if Pei Shiju found out the clues. This old fox might try to use tricks again... But Li Shan was very sure that Pei Shiju was unaware of it.
It has been quite a few years since he traveled back in time, and Li Shan has not done many things that he is not sure about. Every adventure he takes is a prompt decision after analyzing the situation, or a choice after a long period of preparation. This time, Li Shan is really In the adventure, he doesn't even know how big the risk is.
Because Li Shan didn't know at all, if something happened to Fangzhou during this summer vacation, it would be a good thing or a bad thing for Li Shimin, Li Jiancheng, Pei Shiju, and himself.
In the end, Li Shan could only use an advertising slogan to describe... Everything is possible.
The reason why he finally came up with this idea that he thought was risky, but that Li Shimin, Fang Xuanling and others thought was very clever, was mainly because Li Shan could disrupt Pei Shiju's rhythm, at least during the summer vacation. Whether Pei Shiju follows Li Yuan to escape the summer or follows the prince in Chang'an, it will be difficult for him to do anything.
As for what kind of impact it will have on Li Yuan... Li Shan doesn't care.
Anyway, you, Li Yuan, go to escape the summer every year. Last year, the commotion in Renshou Palace got to that point. Li Yuan himself was hit by an arrow, all his concubines were kidnapped, and he gave birth to a son or a daughter. Didn't Li Yuan, who was so prosperous, return to Chang'an and quickly ask Li Yuanji to choose a place to build another summer palace?
Therefore, you have to go to escape the summer heat yourself, and I won’t take the blame for this.
After making an appointment to go to the Yamen together tomorrow, Li Shan saw Ling Jing off and walked back and forth in the East Garden alone for a long time, thinking over and over how the incident would unfold and what preparations he needed to make.
"Alang." Fan Shiyi appeared quietly.
"Any news coming?"
"No." Fan Shiyi shook his head, "Nothing happened."
"Nothing unusual?" Li Shan murmured in a low voice. He had been monitoring the movements of Feng Lun, Li Yuanji and others through Fan Shiyi's cousin. Although these people were in high positions and had many followers, they The movements are not difficult to detect.
After hesitating for a while, Li Shan whispered, "Let Fan Feng keep an eye on Feng Lun. If anything goes wrong, report it directly to him at any time."
"yes."
It is a little difficult to investigate King Qi. If you want to investigate Yang Wenqian, you have to go to Fangzhou. There may be traces. Li Shan decided to focus on Feng Lun.
On the one hand, it is because Feng Lun must be a key figure in this matter, and may even be the mastermind.
On the other hand, because Li Yuan left Chang'an to go to Renzhi Palace to spend the summer, Feng Lun, as the most die-hard leader of the King of Qin's lineage among the prime ministers, is likely to stay in Chang'an to check and balance the East Palace.
The other key is military strength. The army left behind in Jingzhao Mansion may not be of use. Without military symbols, unless Li Shimin can gather the army with his own prestige at a critical moment, Li Shan cannot do it and will not violate taboos. To do this kind of thing.
However, Fangzhou is not far from Chang'an and borders Jingzhao. Li Shan decided to turn around and ask Liu Hei'er to pay attention to the number of horses in the racecourse. Don't raise horses for a thousand days, but there will not be enough horses when the time comes.
On this night, Li Shan had a rare insomnia, tossing and turning like pancakes, and was finally driven away by Cui Shiniang, who could not sleep well. He could only hold Zhou with his left hand and Xiaoman with his right hand.
Early the next morning, Li Shan's powerful biological clock made Li Shan get up early, but the dark circles on his eyes were obvious. After breakfast listlessly, he met Ling Jing as soon as he went out. As soon as he opened his mouth, the old man was covered in smoke. nose.
"Eat the leek box." Li Shan laughed dryly. This was his favorite when he was a child. Without meat, leeks are the most fragrant among vegetables, but the taste is a bit too strong.
Ling Jing got on the carriage, and Li Shan got on his horse and took the lead out of Zhuangzi with ten guards. Outside Sun Moon Lake, Li Shan always kept a certain distance from Ling Jing. As for still living next door, he didn't. Too outrageous.
After all, in this era, political bets are never placed in the same basket. Li Shan is just imitating others. Ling Jing is loyal to the King of Qin, Li Shan and Su Dingfang are loyal to His Majesty... After all, before the battle of Tiantai Mountain, Li Yuan and Li Jiancheng Take a stand.
Li Shan entered the imperial city so early, causing countless officials who were rushing to go to the Yamen to look at him sideways. It was really rare to see King Wei Si in the imperial city before noon.
Because there was no morning court, Li Yuan quickly summoned the prime minister, the prince, the king of Qin and the king of Wei in Liangyi Hall. The first question he raised was to discuss merit.
In fact, Li Shan discussed this topic with Ling Jing last night. The former asked about Li Shimin's attitude, Li Jiancheng's attitude, and most importantly, Li Yuan's attitude.
But after Ling Jing's explanation, Li Shan realized that the battlefield this time was really not a battle between the East Palace and the Prince of Qin's Palace, at least it was not the mainstream.
There are two views in the court. The first one is that the fierce battle lasted for half a year, first defeating the Turks, then destroying the Liang Kingdom, and expanding the territory to several states. This can be compared to the Battle of Hulao in Luoyang, or the defeat of the Turks in Guji Town and Yunnan by King Wei Si the year before. The three battles of Zhouzhou and Cangtou River.
And these two wars were one in the south and one in the north, one first and one later. They captured the two kings to establish the foundation of the world, defended the border and attacked the Turks. After the war, they generously rewarded the heroes. Basically, all the generals got meat, even if they didn't eat meat. Everyone also drank a few mouthfuls of broth... Even Li Jing, who had been captured from the army, was quickly promoted to the title of Duke of the country.
Therefore, this view holds that this time we should also generously reward meritorious generals... This view cannot be wrong. Such great achievements cannot be achieved without the bravery of the generals and the lives of the soldiers. If they do not reward the generals, it will inevitably chill the generals, and maybe they will secretly do so. Complaining that the emperor Li Yuan was mean and ungrateful.
Another view is that in fact, most of the fierce battles in the past six months took place within the country. The Lingzhou Army was defeated twice, resulting in the Liang Division occupying the three states. The Turks were defeated at the borders of Yuanzhou and Jingzhou. Liang Shidu's main force was at the foot of Helan Mountain in Lingzhou, and then he naturally recovered Yinzhou, Xiazhou, and Suizhou.
Therefore, in terms of nature, it cannot be compared with the Battle of Hulao in Luoyang and the Battle of Cangtou River in Yunzhou, which both took place outside the territory ruled by the Tang Dynasty at that time. It can be compared with the two pacifications of Shandong and the Battle of Jianghuai. ...The generals in these two battles basically didn't get much meat.
