Li Shimin: "?!"
"Jingzhou, Binzhou..."
He looked shocked and said,
"You mean, you predicted that Luo Yi would rebel two years ago and Zhao Cihao would capture him?!"
Xu Fenglei nodded slightly.
"Yes." He said matter-of-factly.
Li Shimin: "..."
"Then why didn't you tell me earlier!"
He glared and said,
"If you told me earlier, wouldn't I be able to take precautions and catch him?"
Xu Fenglei blinked.
"I forgot."
He pouted and said,
"With so many things going on in the past two years, how can I have time to think about his little Luo Yi? Zhong Bu Chong didn't answer, and His Majesty didn't come to ask me after that."
"Besides, he has someone to surrender. What's the difference between getting rid of him early or getting rid of him late? Anyway, the court doesn't have to worry about it."
Li Shimin: "..."
All the ministers looked a little strange.
Young Master, Young Master, it is indeed you!
How could such a big matter be dismissed with a simple "forgot"?
"you……"
Li Er said angrily,
"What's wrong with a bell that doesn't strike it? I'm not the monk who rings the bell, and you're no longer the mysterious gentleman you used to be!"
"You are now an important minister of the imperial court, the prince's young master! If you find any problems, you should give me a memorial to explain it. If it doesn't work, you have to tell me and remind me!"
"Rebellion is no small matter, do you understand?"
Xu Fenglei scratched his head.
"I know."
He nodded obediently.
"It's really..."
Li Shimin's expression softened slightly and he said,
"I don't know how to scold you!"
"If you notice such things in the future, you must inform me!"
He paused for a moment, turned to look at Li Ji, and ordered:
"Luo Yi rebelled. Although Zhao Cihao is here, I still have to make complete preparations... Maogong, I still order you to be the commander-in-chief of Jingzhou's march and mobilize 10,000 troops out of Chang'an to go to Jingzhou to put down the rebellion!"
He believed Xu Fenglei's words.
After all, this kid has never missed a beat over the years.
But as an emperor, facing the serious matter of rebellion, he must not ignore it and sit on the Diaoyutai.
At the very least, you have to show a strong stance and high efficiency!
Even if Luo Yi is not substantively killed in the end, it can still shock everyone around him.
"According to the order."
Li Ji grinned and looked full of energy.
"His Majesty."
Xu Fenglei suddenly shouted.
"Um?"
Li Shimin turned his head back again, looked at him and said,
"What's the matter?"
"You are right, I should inform you in advance if something happens."
Xu Fenglei said calmly,
"So, I want to report it!"
"The king of Changle, Li Youliang, has an ambiguous relationship with the Qiang and Hu people. He trades secretly with each other and is about to rebel!"
"The king of Youzhou, Junkuo, is arrogant and rebellious. If he is not recalled to Chang'an, he will also be rebellious!"
"complete."
Li Shimin: "!!!"
Ministers: "!!!"
"Is this true?!"
Li Er was surprised and said,
"Wang Junkuo, I know that you have said something about him before, and I have been wary of him for a long time. I plan to summon him and return him to the custody of the court."
"But Li Youliang, King of Changle? He also wants to rebel? Why should he rebel..."
Subconsciously, Li Shimin felt that royal princes like Li Youliang were idiots.
rebel?
You don’t have the ability to know!
Where did he get the confidence and confidence?
"If your Majesty doesn't believe it, you can check him out."
Xu Fenglei's expression remained calm and he said calmly,
"Anyway, my duty is to detect and report it. Now that my duty has been fulfilled, how to deal with it is your Majesty's business."
Li Shimin frowned slightly, and after a while, he nodded slightly.
"I understand."
He mused,
"I will send someone to find out his details. If he really has any objections, hehe..."
A cold look flashed in Li Er's eyes.
"Since Young Master has this ability, I have a question. I would like to ask Young Master to clarify my doubts. It is also to clarify your Majesty's doubts."
Xiao Yu spoke out,
"The chief of Lingnan, Feng Ang, and the chief of Lingxi, Tan Dian, and other tribal leaders have been fighting for years. Since the end of the Sui Dynasty, when the world was in chaos and the Tang Dynasty was founded, he has rarely contacted our court. In recent years, it is suspected that he has changed his flag and wants to establish himself as king."
"You said that Li Youliang has rebellious intentions and Wang Junkuo has rebellious intentions. Does Feng An also have rebellious intentions?"
Li Shimin looked at Xu Fenglei again.
"Feng Ang will not resist the Tang Dynasty, but he just suffers from the lack of channels to communicate with the court."
Xu Fenglei said in a deep voice,
"During the Wude years, the Supreme Emperor was very tired in governing the country. He did not take care of the people's livelihood in the country, so how could he talk about diplomacy?"
"The Tang Dynasty has always treated Feng with cold treatment and ignored it. In addition, there are many tribes in Lingnan, and Feng has too much time to fight with the tribes and has no energy to send envoys to the court."
"I believe that your Majesty will send an envoy to appease Feng An, and believe that he can be subdued without any effort. At that time, he will send troops to help him wipe out the tribes in western Guangdong, and the vast and fertile land in Lingnan will be secure. It is firmly within my territory of the Tang Dynasty."
When Li Shimin heard this, he couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly.
"Feng Ang is thousands of miles away. How do you infer that this person is so wise?"
He asked with a smile,
"As far as I know, many tribal leaders in the south are short-sighted and stupid, like Fu Gong'er, who is like a chariot with a mantis' arm and does not know what he thinks."
"Could it be that this can also be deduced?"
Xu Fenglei was about to respond, but Wei Zheng, who had not spoken for a long time, suddenly said:
"Your Majesty, I agree with what the young master said."
"Feng has always been wise. At that time, Feng An's grandmother, Mrs. Xian, was a hero among women. She worked hard in Lingnan and was admired by people in central Guangdong."
"And Mrs. Xian's lineage has always been very close to the Central Plains Dynasty."
"I have also heard about Feng An's early experiences. It is said that he was trained by Mrs. Xian. His style of doing things is quite a legacy of Mrs. Xian."
"Therefore, I know that Feng An is willing to surrender. In fact, no matter who is in charge of the Central Plains, he is willing to surrender. Of course, the court must also give him autonomy in Lingnan, and provide military assistance when necessary. "
Xu Fenglei nodded.
Wei Zheng’s analysis is so good! Pretty much what he was thinking.
In fact, Feng Ang is almost like the "county magistrate's wife". It doesn't matter who is the county magistrate. He can submit to either the Sui Dynasty or the Tang Dynasty.
As long as the Lingnan area is one-third of an acre, his words will work.
"Okay, what you two have said will save the court from a fight!"
Li Shimin put his hands on his hands and laughed and said,
"In that case, as you two said, I will send an envoy to appease you!"
"If it really comes true, you Wei Zheng might also be able to become a semi-immortal! Hahaha..."
When the emperor smiled, all the officials laughed heartily.
Only Wei Zheng said sternly:
"I did not use mystical techniques to calculate it, but made inferences based on facts and existing data. I do not dare to use the word 'half-immortal'."
"Young master can say it casually and speak straightly. I am ashamed of myself."
Xu Fenglei's face froze slightly.
Although I know that Wei Zheng’s character cannot be yin and yang, but these words sound really yin and yang strange...
I didn’t figure it out through divination either!
I just flipped through the history books...
