"Danyang is thousands of miles away, and Danyang is the fiefdom of King Wu. Now that King Wu and his son are in the capital, what can happen?" Li Daozong looked at Lu Chen and asked in confusion, because he had been thinking for a long time. I can't imagine why Lu Chen suddenly mentioned Danyang.
"Do you know Du Fuwei?" Lu Chen did not rush to answer Li Daozong's words, but asked Li Daozhong.
"Du Fuwei?" Lu Chen's rhetorical question made Li Daozong even more confused. However, Li Daozong really knew Du Fuwei a little bit. When Du Fuwei demoted Li Yuan, it was largely because of Li Yuan. Du Fuwei was given the power of vassal king. In other words, although Du Fuwei surrendered to the Tang Dynasty, he still managed his territory by himself. Of course, Du Fuwei was very high-spirited at this time.
However, from the fourth year of Wude to the fifth year of Wude, Li Shimin and Li Daozong directly and continuously defeated Liu Heitai and destroyed Xu Yuanlang. In the entire Tang Dynasty, Du Fuwei was the only vassal king who managed his own territory. To put it bluntly, the only one who has the possibility of rebellion is Du Fuwei, and can Du Fuwei not see the posture of Li Shimin and Li Daozong?
Therefore, in the fifth year of Wude, after Du Fuwei wrote to Li Yuan, he took his son to live in Chang'an City. As for the affairs of his fief, the government affairs were managed by Fugong, while the military power was controlled by In the hands of his adopted son "Little General" Wang Xiongdan, these two people should be in charge of Du Fuwei's fiefdom now.
As for Du Fuwei, in Li Daozong's opinion, he is definitely a good fighter, but when it comes to management, Du Fuwei completely relies on his "good friend" Fu Gong'er.
Li Daozong directly told Lu Chen in detail what he knew about Du Fuwei. Lu Chen nodded after listening to Li Daozong's words.
"My lord, what do you think of Fugong Er?" After Lu Chen asked this, he took a mouthful of food, chewed and looked at Li Daozong.
"I don't know Fu Gong'er well. I think he must have some skills. Otherwise, how could he handle Du Fuwei's fiefdom in an orderly manner!" Li Daozong picked up the wine glass and took a sip of wine. However, as soon as the wine was in his mouth, Li Daozong was stunned. Sticking out his tongue, since drinking Lu Chen's Erguotou, his own wine, which he thought was good wine before, now seems as light as water to him, "Brother Lu, you have to give me some good wine quickly." Here it comes! I can’t drink this thing!” Li Daozong glanced at the wine glass on the table with disgust.
"Okay! I'll have someone bring you some wine later!" Lu Chen looked at Li Daozong's disgusted expression and said with a smile, "Let's get back to the topic. Let's use an analogy. If the prince is the assistant minister, King Wu is in Chang'an now, and he will definitely not be able to go back. The court has given King Wu such a high title, so he can live happily in Chang'an. As for you, you don't get any rewards, and you have to work hard to look after King Wu's house. What do you think when you do something?" After Lu Chen finished speaking, he still looked at Li Daozong with a smile.
"If it's me..." Li Daozong stroked his chin and thought for a moment, "Then I must be unbalanced. You are getting promoted to a noble position in the capital and are happy and free, but I have to work very hard to look after your house. No one can bear this when doing things! Moreover, if something really happens, you have to write a letter to King Wu to make a decision, no one can bear this!" Li Daozong said very directly.
"If another condition is added, King Wu will definitely not be able to return to the fiefdom. What will you do if you are the auxiliary minister?" Seeing that his guidance was effective, Lu Chen continued to ask.
"Then he must be trying to get rid of this prince. It would be great if he had the final say..." When Li Daozong said this, he suddenly looked at Lu Chen with wide eyes, "Brother Lu, you are saying that Fu Gong'er is going to rebel. !" After saying this, Li Daozong couldn't help but look around vigilantly.
"I didn't say that Fugong Er was going to rebel. This was just a conjecture! It was based on human nature!" Lu Chen looked at Li Daozong with a smile and said.
"But didn't you say before that Fugong Er doesn't have military power? Even if he wants to rebel, he has to have soldiers in his hands, right?" Li Daozong thought about it and asked with a slight frown.
"My lord, do you think those who lead the troops can have the heart of those civilian officials?" Lu Chen said calmly, "Just a letter from Du Fuwei can make Wang Xiongdan hand over military power. Do you believe it?"
"But when the general has no fault, it is impossible to change the general for no reason, right? I'm afraid that if you do this, the soldiers below will also be dissatisfied!" For Li Daozong, who has been leading troops in battles, this kind of casual change What happened to the general was basically impossible to happen, so Li Daozong refuted Lu Chen.
"There is no fault to make a fault! This kind of thing cannot be too simple! There are ways to achieve this kind of thing casually, and as the lord of the fiefdom, if the general under his command leads his troops out without notifying you, , do you think there will be no suspicion in your heart? Even the person you trust will probably be suspicious, right?" Lu Chen looked at Li Daozong and said with a smile.
"The general will not accept the order of the king! This is normal, right?" Li Daozong was still unconvinced and argued hard.
"It can indeed be said that the general will not accept the order of the king, but this refers to the situation when there is a war and the situation in the fief is calm. I am afraid this sentence will not be used well, right?" Lu Chen was still in a state of expression. An indifferent expression.
"This..." Li Daozong was told by Lu Chen that he didn't know how to refute, because if he asked himself, if there was no war in Lingzhou at this time and his generals directly led their troops out for a walk, he himself would have done the same in Chang'an. If you feel restless, you must write a letter to ask why this situation occurs. If you push yourself further, the situation Lu Chen said is not impossible, but will happen 100% of the time.
"Brother Lu, do you mean that Fugong will cause such a thing, and then ask Du Fuwei to write a letter back, and then directly deprive Wang Xiongdan of his military power?" Li Daozong thought of Fugong's arrival. At that time, he had single-handedly captured the military and political affairs. Wouldn't that be equivalent to directly ousting Du Fuwei? There is no movement from Fugong Er now, entirely because the military power is not in his hands, and he only has administrative authority.
"Why bother to inform Du Fuwei?" Lu Chen laughed when he heard Li Daozong's guess. "If it's a rebellion, it's okay if it succeeds. If it fails, it will definitely be the biggest crime for the leader!" Lu Chen didn't finish his words. But Li Daozong understood.
"Brother Lu, I know what you mean!" Li Daozong looked at Lu Chen and said with bright eyes, "If my guess is correct, Fugong Er will forge a letter, and this letter was written by Du Fuwei. As for Du Fuwei, he cannot return to Chang'an. Therefore, as long as Fu Gong'er succeeds, then Fu Gong'er can establish himself as king or even proclaim himself emperor. If he fails, Fu Gong'er can push the matter to Du Fuwei. On your body!"
"No! Not only did Fu Gonger ask Du Fuwei to write a letter, he also asked Du Fuwei to write about his situation in Chang'an!" Lu Chen said with a smile to Li Daozong, "Of course, will he add some words to it? It's hard to say! After all, you are rebelling! You have to find a suitable reason to make people follow you?" Lu Chen directly gave Li Daozong a "you know" look.
"Brother Lu makes sense!" How could Li Daozong not understand the meaning of Lu Chen's words? The discussion between the two made Li Daozong feel that Fugong Er would definitely rebel.
"If that's the case, it's better to kill that Fu Gonger now..." Li Daozong's eyes flashed coldly, and he directly made a cutting motion with his hand knife.
"Although we have analyzed the possibilities here! But has Fugong rebelled?" Lu Chen reminded Li Daozong directly.
"But it's possible! As long as it's detrimental to the Tang Dynasty, it must be killed!" Li Daozong said with a serious face.
"If you kill Fugong now, then Du Fuwei can rebel directly. Do you believe it?" Lu Chen directly gave Li Daozong a look of contempt, "Let's analyze this matter and find someone for us to have a midnight snack." Topic, as for whether Fugong Er will rebel or not, but if we observe first and find signs, we can also use the trick to dig out all the people in his department, right?"
"Does this matter need to be reported to the emperor?" Li Daozong nodded, then looked at Lu Chen and asked.
"What's the use of your baseless report now? Could it be that just because you are the prince, the emperor will send people to Danyang thousands of miles away?" Lu Chen directly gave Li Daozong a look of contempt again, "And , this matter is not suitable for you to report, the person suitable for reporting will be here soon!" Lu Chen said, looking at the wing with deep eyes, Du Dejun was locked up there!
And Li Daozong, who followed Lu Chen's eyes, immediately understood what Lu Chen meant and nodded directly, "Brother Lu, what about the great contribution you mentioned to me?" Li Daozong looked away and looked at Lu Chen and asked road.
"The credit for countering the rebellion isn't great enough? What more credit do you want?" Lu Chen directly glared at Li Daozong, "My lord, if you want to be content, you can't get involved in everything!" Lu Chen directly gave it to Li Daozong A word of advice.
You must know that Li Daozong has always had a feud with Changsun Wuji. Li Daozong has always looked down on Changsun Wuji. As a result, in his later years, as the king of Jiangxia, Li Daozong was still implicated in the rebellion of Princess Gaoyang. The main reason was that as an uncle, Li Daozong loved and was very willful and unruly. Princess Gaoyang, because of this, although Li Daozong was not involved in this matter, he was still implicated in this case by Changsun Wuji, and was exiled to death in his later years.
The reason why Lu Chen gave this advice was because he didn't want Li Daozong to be involved in this matter. However, Lu Chen didn't seem to have thought that if he appeared here, would this matter happen again?
