He secretly glanced at the emperor and found that the emperor was also looking at him, and quickly lowered his head.
"When did you develop this habit? You are a manly man, a general who makes your enemies frightened. You have always behaved in a royal and upright manner, and you have learned how to secretly look at people? Get up and speak."
Gao Buyi's tone of voice changed so much that Wang Sizhong couldn't adapt to it for a while, but he still stood up slowly.
Gao Buyi smiled and said: "Looking at your expression, I know that you haven't thought about what to do about this matter. Then listen to my thoughts first. Aren't you the governor of the fourth town now? Hand over Hexi and Longyou towns to Huangfu Wei Ming and Guo Ziyi, the two great generals, you will be appointed as the military envoys of Shuofang, Hedong and Fanyang, and will be appointed Minister of the Ministry of War."
"Thank you for your Majesty's grace, but now Fan Yang is the territory of Anlu Mountain. I'm afraid he won't hand it over obediently. That guy is a rough and reckless man. Relying on the respect of you and the imperial concubine, he has always been messy and forced to accept only I’m afraid there will be a big mess.”
"So this matter has to be done secretly. When the court meets, I will announce that the Shence Army and the local army will change defenses at certain intervals. It will become a routine in the future to ensure the combat effectiveness of the national army. Of course, the defense changes will not be completed at once. But in batches, then the first location will be in Fan Yang, and you will be responsible for the implementation. The issue of army defense replacement in other places will also start as soon as Fumeng Lingcha’s Minister of War takes office. "
"May I ask Your Majesty, how many people will Fan Yang change his defense on?"
"fifty thousand."
"Fifty thousand! Isn't that too much?"
"Don't worry, I ordered the border to stop fighting before, just for this reason. If there is no fighting at the border, why are there so many soldiers left in the bitter cold land? I feel bad. As for how to take over Fan Yang Jiedushi when the defense is changed, you have to plan well , I will not announce the change of your position at the first court meeting. I will give you enough preparation time. You will discuss it with Prime Minister Pei An later. The Prime Minister’s influence in Fan Yang is still there. You must plan everything thoroughly. Once that guy jumps over the wall in a hurry, he must be suppressed quickly."
"I obey!"
"It's just the two of us here, don't let anything leak out, otherwise you should know the consequences."
"yes!"
"After the Lantern Festival, you go to Hedong. You don't have to wait for the imperial meeting. I have asked General Huangfu Weiming to secretly rush to Hexi. After you arrive in Hedong, you quietly gather the army in Zhenzhou, which is the closest to Youzhou. If the news leaks, you Just say that I have been ordered to train the army, and then I will act on my own initiative."
"Yes! Your Majesty, please clarify how to deploy Shuofang's army?"
"Shuofang's troops, led by deputy envoy Li Guangbi, gathered secretly in Shuozhou area to prepare for changes."
"I obey!"
"Is Pugu Huaien here?"
"Your Majesty, you are here. You are waiting for an audience outside the palace."
"Okay! Let him come in. You can go back and reunite with your family. As for the previous rumors, don't take it to heart. I still have the ability to distinguish what is right and what is wrong."
"I don't dare!"
"Haha! Go ahead."
"I resign!"
Soon Pugu Huai'en came to Gao Buyi, and Gao Buyi asked him to get up: "General, he is a rare talent at first glance."
"Thank you for the compliment, Your Majesty!"
"Haha, okay! From today on, I will appoint you as the Huangmen Zhonglang General, responsible for the palace's confinement."
"I thank you for your kindness." This is an extraordinary promotion, promoted to three levels in a row.
"Get up, Ge Shuhan!"
"I'm here!"
"From today on, I will appoint you as the Jiangnan Economic and Strategic Ambassador. You will be stationed in Yangzhou and train an elite navy of 30,000 people for the imperial court within five years. What do you think? Are you confident?"
"Thank you for your Majesty's grace! You will definitely fulfill your mission." This is also an exceptional promotion for him. It is a great kindness. As a general, it is actually very uncomfortable to guard the palace gate in the palace. Now he has been re-employed. , and also became a high official in the feudal territory. Your kindness is really as deep as the sea.
"Okay! It's settled, let Li Sheng go with you and appoint him as the judge of the Jinglue Mansion. You and Pugu Huai'en will hand over the matter of palace confinement and then take office. You go."
"yes!"
The reason why Gao Buyi made this arrangement was to quickly train a group of new people, otherwise the generals who are good at recruiting and fighting would soon be extinct. At the same time, it also released to the talented people in the world a sense that the emperor would send down talents in an eclectic way. , paving the way for future talent selection.
Wang Sizhong came out of the palace and went directly to Pei An's mansion.
Pei An went out to greet him in person: "General Wang, it's been a long time since we've seen each other, but you're well."
"I've met Mr. Pei."
"Please come in--"
Pei An invited Wang Sizhong to a nuan pavilion, just the two of them.
"General Wang has seen His Majesty?"
"yes!"
"What do you think? You have written many times about restricting An Lushan in the north. However, you were framed by the two traitors An Lushan and Li Linfu, and you almost ended up in jail like me."
"Yes, it really feels like a lifetime ago. His Majesty asked me to come to you to discuss this matter. I wonder if you have any good ideas."
"It's not urgent. You've heard about His Majesty Yuan Ri's fainting, right?"
Wang Sizhong nodded.
"Since your Majesty woke up, you have done four major things, all of which are very satisfying. Now your Majesty has been alert to the likes of An Lushan, Li Linfu, and Yang Guozhong. This is a great good thing."
"only--"
"If you have anything to say, just say it."
"How is your Majesty's health? Concubine Yang is still in the palace."
"You are right, but His Majesty has recently restored Concubine Mei to her position as a noble concubine. Everyone knows that Concubine Mei has always been virtuous. As long as the family is not the only one in the family, it will be a good thing for us."
"What the boss said is that things are turbulent in Chang'an, and I am worried about your majesty's dragon body."
"Just do your best. I want you not to be wary after talking so much. Your Majesty is different now. It's not very possible for Yang to confuse Your Majesty. Well, just listen to these words. Since Your Majesty puts such The most important thing is trust in you."
"yes!"
"You already know His Majesty's strategy. I have no objection. I have been in Fan Yang for ten years, and some of my old memories may be useful to you. After An Lushan took up the post of Fan Yang, he began to exclude dissidents. Although my old subordinates were There are some who have been transferred away, but there are still some who remain..."
The two of them planned in Nuan Pavilion for a long time before they dispersed.
Naturally, their actions could not escape the eyes and ears of Li Linfu and Yang Guozhong.
"Sir, this Wang Sizhong was summoned by His Majesty as soon as he arrived in Chang'an, and then went to Pei Mansion for a long time. He must be plotting something."
"I know that, but what are you plotting?"
"I haven't found out yet."
"Continue to inquire, and ask our secret agents in the Prince's Palace and Pei's Palace to work harder to find out the reward."
"Yes! Sir, in the palace-"
"I'll think of a way over there. This time the old man releases the maid out of the palace. We only have a few hidden traps left. We can't afford to lose anything."
"Yes! I am resigning."
On the other side, in the Yang Guozhong Mansion, Mrs. Guo Guo, Mrs. Han Guo and Mrs. Qin were also there. Although the emperor deprived them of their privileges, he did not take away their titles. With the money they had collected in the past, it was not difficult to enjoy the glory and wealth.
"Guozhong, have our people heard anything?" Mrs. Guo Guo asked, lying lazily on a chaise longue.
"Not yet. Since the palace was inexplicably reorganized, it is no longer possible to send things inside. I can only passively wait for news about my little sister."
"Wang Sizhong was summoned by His Majesty as soon as he entered Chang'an. I heard that he stayed in the palace for two hours. It seems that something big is about to happen. Now you have also been removed from the positions of Minister of the Ministry of Personnel and Jiedushi of Jiannan Road. , is there something bad going on?" Mrs. Guo Guo had some opinions, and was not as dissolute as before. She was dressed in palace clothes and looked elegant.
"It doesn't seem like it's aimed at us. After all, apart from removing me as the Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs and the Jiedushi of Jiannan Road, there is nothing else. My younger sister is still the master of the harem." Yang Guozhong said.
"Don't forget, my little sister's nemesis has also been pardoned. I'm afraid that when he returns to the palace soon, my little sister's life will be difficult again." Mrs. Korea said.
Yang Guozhong was a little upset: "Your Majesty is so unpredictable right now. We just listen to my little sister and wait and see what happens. I will try to contact my little sister. Suddenly there is no news from the palace, which makes people restless."
Although the emperor's changes caused uneasiness among these dignitaries, they won the heartfelt support of the people of the entire Tang Dynasty. People all over the country set off fireworks and firecrackers and rushed to tell each other.
At this time, the literati and poets in Chang'an did not hesitate to write and praise the prosperous Tang Dynasty! His Majesty the Emperor is wise and mighty!
The Lantern Festival is coming in a blink of an eye!
After dinner, Gao Buyi changed into regular clothes with the help of Shangguan Pei Hui: "Your Majesty, I still want to advise you that although the people are busy, your safety is more important."
"Oh, Hui'er, my ears are almost calloused. Well - after shaving off my beard, I look a few years younger. Not bad! Don't worry about safety. Isn't there Chen Xuan, and Wang Sizhong, plus you? As a female heroine, can’t the safety be guaranteed?”
Looking in the mirror again, he looks like a rich old man, but a little thinner and his clothes are a little baggy. On the other hand, Shangguan Pei Hui, who is disguised as a man, is handsome and handsome, which makes people never tire of looking at him.
