Li Shimin glanced at Qiao Gongshan. He knew now that Feng Lun must have done it, because Qiao Gongshan and Er Zhuhuan transported armor and ordnance to Yang Wenqian not in a short time, but had been going on for more than two years. Not many people knew about this matter, except for himself, the two people who presided over it were Changsun Wuji and Feng Lun.
When his father was staying at Renzhi Palace in Fangzhou, why did the East Palace actually send people to transport armor and ordnance to Yang Wen?
Although it was a good opportunity, Qiao Gongshan came, and where did Er Zhuhuan, the leader, go?
Li Shimin and Li Yuan looked at each other, and both of them were a little silent. Unexpectedly, the back-up plan had no chance to work. The East Palace chose Fangzhou and Renzhi Palace as the battlefield.
In fact, a quarter of an hour ago, when the complaint was made at Qiaogong Mountain, Li Yuan was so shocked that he almost ran away... Yijun County is not more than fifty miles away from Phoenix Valley, which is already very close.
In the original time and space, a similar thing happened. Li Yuan was afraid that Yang Wenqian would raid Renzhi Palace, so he fled to the mountains with the imperial army, and did not return to Renzhi Palace until the next day.
But in this life, Li Yuan is relatively calm... I have no choice but to learn from every experience. Just at this time last year, he hurried back to Chang'an. As soon as he started, he was followed by Liang Jun, so that Great collapse.
Although Yang Wenqian, the governor of Fangzhou, theoretically does not have many troops and does not have the right to mobilize government troops, if he really raises troops to rebel, he will not care about the rules. He will definitely have as many troops as he can muster... With the name of the East Palace Now, maybe there are also reasons such as King Qin's rebellion and the prince's rescue, so the number of troops may not be small.
It would be terrible if Yang Wenqian had already led his army to ambush nearby and he rushed back to Chang'an at this time.
After calming down, Li Yuan didn't think this matter was difficult to solve...at least it was much easier to solve than last year's Renshou Palace, but he still didn't quite believe that Dalang would really rebel?
Although he had evidence such as armor and ordnance, Li Yuan still didn't believe it. It wasn't that he didn't think Li Jiancheng would be rebellious, but that he didn't think Li Jiancheng had the strength to rebel.
Even if Yang Wenqian can lead the rebels to attack Renzhi Palace, Fangzhou is located on an important road and he can summon Jingzhao reinforcements at any time. Can the unknown Yang Wenqian still be able to fight on the battlefield with brave generals like Li Shiji and Huang Junhan?
But it cannot be believed that it exists, only that it does not exist. Li Yuan looked at Li Shimin and said, "Erlang, you handle it."
Let Li Shimin handle it, on the one hand, it is trust in his ability, and on the other hand, it is also a vague promise. If the prince conspires to rebel, you, Li Shimin, are naturally the best candidate to take over the East Palace.
"Sanhu took away five hundred forbidden troops yesterday..." Li Shimin suddenly paused when he said this. He remembered Ling Jing's worries, "Now in Phoenix Valley, there are five hundred forbidden troops, led by Huo Guogong, and there are about a dozen personal guards. Two hundred, and give them to Huo Guogong together."
"Phoenix Valley is not far from Jingzhao, and Yijun County, the capital of Fangzhou, is north of Phoenix Valley. Yesterday there was a memorial sent from Chang'an, so troops should not be sent to separate the two places. Messengers should be dispatched immediately to summon the Duke of the State and the Duke of Xiao. The soldiers of the Shangfang Mansion will escort you."
Qiao Gongshan on the side suddenly interrupted: "I traveled from Chang'an to Renzhi Palace and saw nothing strange on the way."
Li Yuan nodded. This is understandable. Yang Wenqian was probably waiting for this batch of armor and ordnance. Perhaps this was also a signal.
"Yesterday at dusk, I received a letter from Chang'an." Chai Shao added: "The rebels are not aware of the report from Qiao Gongshan yet, so the messenger set off immediately and traveled all night. Tomorrow, some light cavalry will arrive in Phoenix Valley to escort them."
Li Yuan glanced at Li Shimin and said, "Maybe we can send a messenger to Ningzhou?"
Li Shimin hesitated, "Wei Yunqi, the governor of Ningzhou, is a famous general, but..."
After all, in Jingzhao and Weishi, those who became officials were basically linked to the East Palace. In the Qin Palace, only Li Shimin accepted two Weishi women as concubines.
Li Shimin thought for a while and suggested: "Maybe we can send a messenger to Ningzhou and summon Wei Yun to come to Renzhi Palace to see him?"
This is a good idea. If Wei Yunqi did not follow the prince to rebel, then being summoned by His Majesty, although somewhat irregular, is not an isolated case. But if the prince has joined Wei Yunqi, then a messenger arrived in Ningzhou, Wei Yunqi naturally knew that the matter was exposed and would not dare to rebel.
Any rebellion must be carried out in a sudden and sudden attack, and the weak will defeat the strong. Otherwise, it only needs to be upright.
Li Yuan nodded in agreement and said with a smile: "Wei Yunqi has an unparalleled temperament, I'm afraid he won't be rebellious."
Wei Yunqi has offended many people in his life, and he has feuds with many aristocratic families, such as the Liu family of Jie County, the Dou family of Fufeng, the Li family of Zhao County, and even the Pei family of Wenxi. Sui fell out with Pei Ji in front of him.
Li Yuan calculated in his mind that Liu Hongji and Zhang Pinggao each led two thousand elites around Chang'an. From the time the messenger set off from Renzhi Palace, at least some of the light cavalry would arrive at Phoenix Valley before dusk tomorrow. I'm afraid Yang Wenqian had not raised his troops by then. Woolen cloth.
But with this excuse, it is imperative to depose the prince. It seems that this matter will be resolved in the near future. If it is not resolved... Although Erlang seems to be able to bear it, Tiance Mansion may not be able to wait any longer.
At this time, Chai Shao suddenly said: "Your Majesty, maybe you can summon King Si of Wei by the way?"
"Huairen?" Li Yuan was stunned, "Yes, I forgot about Huairen!"
Li Shimin remained calm and said, "Yang Wenqian is nothing more than a little thief. Hitting him with Huairen is really killing a chicken with a bull's knife."
Although Liu Hongji and Zhang Pinggao were both Yuanmou heroes, and even Li Shiji and Huang Junhan had relatively high qualifications, their prestige in the military and status in the court were far from being comparable to that of Li Shan.
If Li Shan is summoned, he will definitely be the leader of the reinforcements.
"Huairen once said that when a lion or an elephant fights a rabbit, they must use all their strength." Li Yuan shook his head and said, "What's more, Huairen's personal guards are quite brave, and there are many good generals among them."
The most important thing is that, in Li Yuan's view, Li Huairen, the successor king of Wei, is his direct descendant.
Of course, once again going out to Beijing to escape the summer heat, and possibly encountering another crisis, Li Yuan would inevitably think of the figure who appeared in front of him at the most dangerous moment last year.
Unforgettable!
Just when the matter was settled and Li Shimin and Chai Shao were about to retire, someone from the palace came to report and Changsun Wuji asked to see him.
Li Yuan looked at his son, and Li Shimin also had a confused look on his face... Changsun Wuji did not serve in the court, and was not even an official in the Tiance Mansion. He only held a casual position in the Prince of Qin's Mansion. Logically speaking, he was not qualified to meet him. .
Li Yuan nodded thoughtfully, and a moment later, Changsun Wuji walked into the hall with a solemn expression, followed by a middle-aged scribe wearing a green shirt.
