Chapter four hundred and twentieth: revealing stuffing
Jing Xiang rushed into the palace almost in a frustrated manner. Several Zhu Wen's personal bodyguards wanted to stop him, but he reached out to pull him to the side and almost fell a big oscillator. With a bang, Jing Xiang rushed into Zhu Wen's resting bedroom.
Jing Xiang is the first civil official under Zhu Wen's command and his first counselor. He also manages the entire intelligence system under Zhu Wen's command. He can be regarded as the most powerful person in the Xuanwu system.
Looking at the big bed that was still shaking, Jing Xiang shouted: "Jie Shuai, something happened."
A woman screamed in the tent tent, and then the big bed stopped shaking. After a moment, Zhu Wen's fat face was revealed from the tent tent. Looking at Jing Xiang, he said dissatisfiedly: "I said Jing Xiang, do you have the habit of ruining my good things at such a time? It has been several times, several times!"
Looking at Zhu Wen who was so embarrassed, Jing Xiang had no expression on his face and said directly: "Jie Shuai, news came from Chang'an that it was said that Emperor Li Yan was probably no longer in Chang'an."
"He is not in Chang'an, where can he go?" Zhu Wen seemed to hear some funny news.
Jing Xiang didn't say anything, just looked at him steadily.
Zhu Wen immediately remembered something, suddenly opened the curtain, jumped out naked, showing agility that was extremely inconsistent with his figure.
Jing Xiang immediately turned his head and looked to one side. There was a mess in the curtain. His eyes were pretty good. Even if he glanced like a flash, he could see the face of the woman inside. The concubine that King Fu once loved the most had now changed to someone else.
"Qianniuwei!" Zhu Wen roared a little out of control.
"It must be Qianniuwei." Jing Xiang said helplessly.
When Qianniuwei left Tongguan, he was still in charge of the matters behind Zhu Wen for Zhu Wen. After Zhu Wen entered Luoyang, everything was stable, he hurriedly rushed over from Xuanwu. But at this time, Qianniuwei had already gone far away. Although he disagreed with Zhu Wen's decision, he did not think too much about other things. But today he received a secret report from the Chang'an spy, but he suddenly realized it.
Looking at Zhu Wen's naked appearance, Jing Xiang bent down and picked up a robe from the ground and handed it to Zhu Wen. At this time, the women in the tent did not dare to come out, and the guards outside did not dare to come in. They were not Jing Xiang. Zhu Wen was too fat and it was difficult to bend over. Jing Xiang had to reluctantly put a robe on Zhu Wen and cover his shame.
"Li Yan actually abandoned Chang'an and escaped with Qianniuwei. This was really beyond my expectations!" Zhu Wen, who had lost his composure for a moment, had recovered from peace in a short while.
"There must be Wuwei Li Ze's plan here. This person has been planning for a long time, and he is afraid of waiting for this moment!" Jing Xiang's tone was full of admiration. "This person is really amazing. When he sent his mother and wife to Chang'an as a charity, we only think that he wanted to seize the most benefits from the court. He set up General Qianniuwei in Chang'an and recruited soldiers and horses. We only think that he was to protect his old wife. But what he did was the purpose of the emperor! From the beginning, he was thinking about bringing the emperor to Wuwei."
"What are the benefits of him taking such pains to get the emperor to him?" Zhu Wen asked back.
Jing Xiang sighed: "Jie Shuai, I'm afraid that Li Ze would judge our movements or our goals a long time ago, but he is far away from the north, with several towns in the middle, and the power of Heluo in Guanzhong is far less than us. Moreover, he is involved in Zhang Zhongwu, and the situation in the Central Plains is beyond reach."
"Yes, that's how we analyzed it at that time." Zhu Wen nodded.
"But this person's ambition is not inferior to Jishuai. He also has the ambition to win the world. Since his hand cannot reach Chang'an now, let's get the emperor wherever he wants." Jing Xiang said: "At that time, Jishuai will get Heluo Guanzhong, but he will get the emperor. It is really hard to judge who will benefit more!"
"What's the use of a short-selling emperor?" Zhu Wen burst out laughing and said, "I have Luoyang, the center of the world's trough transportation, and the place where wealth is concentrated. I have 800 miles of Qinchuan, and I have four natural dangers. Xuanwu and other places. The powerful arms that I stretched out from Chang'an can attack and retreat can defend. What can he do to me?"
"The emperor's title is the banner of righteousness." Jing Xiang said: "Once the emperor reaches Wuyi's territory, he will inevitably become Li Ze's puppet. Whatever Li Ze wants to do in the future, he can issue an edict in the name of the emperor. The Tang Dynasty has been dead for hundreds of years, and although it is dead, it will not be stiff. If the emperor falls into our hands, it will naturally be over. But if it falls into Li Ze's hands, he can make full use of this. There are many towns in the world. If this emperor is gone, many people will have no bonds and no last moral constraints. If the emperor passes a letter, you may be able to surrender some people. But if the emperor is still there, these people will still have some hope, and it will become an obstacle for you to move forward. This is what Li Ze planned. He threatened the emperor to order the princes."
"Hold the emperor to command the princes?" Zhu Wen murmured.
"Yes, that's it." Jingxiang said: "I can be sure now that once Li Yan arrives at Wuyi, he will inevitably issue an edict to define Jieshou as a rebel and rebel, and call on the whole world to attack him. Although the symbolic significance is greater than the practical significance, there are always many people who do not know the current affairs in the world who will be enemies with you. With these restraints, Jieshou's pace of progress will inevitably be slowed down, and even dragged into the mud and it is difficult to go further. However, Li Ze can handle Zhang Zhongwu well while gathering all over the place in the name of the emperor, forming a siege against Jieshou."
"In this way, Li Yan must not be allowed to arrive in Wuyi." Zhu Wen said a little annoyed.
"After receiving the secret report, I asked the Pegasus to Weizhou and Luzhou, and ordered Zhu Youwen, Tian Yue and others to intercept the Qianniu Guard at any cost. It would be better to capture Li Yan and others alive. If not, they would also turn them into corpses." Jing Xiang said. "In addition, I would also ask the commander Jie to order to send an elite force into Zhaoyi and use people to aid."
"Zhaoyi has nearly 100,000 troops, can't he stop these people?"
"We only have half of Zhaoyi." Jing Xiang reminded: "It was only at this time that I understood why in the late stage of the war, Li Ze suddenly sent troops to stabilize Xingzhou and occupied Beizhou and Mingzhou. He was preparing to support Qianniuwei. In Zhaoyi and Han Qi, Han Qi would not save Li Ze's wife and mother, but once he knew that the emperor was also in this team, he would definitely send troops desperately. If Li Ze wanted to get the emperor, wouldn't Han Qi want to?"
Zhu Wen suddenly realized, turned around and shouted outside the door: "Come."
A guard came in.
"The command of Zhu Youzhen, who led 10,000 cavalry, set out at night and rushed to Weizhou to annihilate the fleeing Qianniu Guards, and no living person was left behind." Zhu Wen said.
The guard turned and left quickly.
Zhu Wen, who had been talking to Jing Xiang for a long time, finally felt tired. He took a few steps back, pulled open the curtain, and half lay on it. He ignored the woman behind him and hid in the corner of the wall, and didn't care what Jing Xiang saw that he shouldn't have seen. In his eyes, the women behind him were just toys, so how could they bear the role of Jing Xiang?
"Sit down and say, sit down and say." Zhu Wen said: "Lao Jing, what else do we have to do next?"
"Dai Chao, Cao Huan's army has advanced to Chang'an. Jieshuai will no longer be able to hide the soft jade and warm fragrance in Luoyang. It's time to come out and do a serious business." Jing Xiang said with some dissatisfaction.
"That's it, that's it!" Zhu Wen laughed.
"After Li Yan left, Chang'an will inevitably be dispersed. If you break through Tongguan and take Chang'an, you won't have to do much." Director Jing Xiang found a chair and sat down, saying, "But because of Li Yan's case, we have to make a second-hand plan."
"What are the second-hand plans?"
"JieShi, we were originally planning to conquer Chang'an and kill Li Yan, so you can ascend to the great treasure, hold Tianxian in your mouth, and change the dynasty, but now that Li Yan has run away and is very likely to fall into Li Ze's hands, we have to change it." Jing Xiang said.
"How do you want to change it?" Zhu Wen said with some dissatisfaction.
"How many royal families are there in Chang'an City?" Jing Xiang sneered: "When the time comes, you can find one, make it the emperor, and Jieshuai is the regent. Li Yan is virtuous and uses treacherous ministers, which has caused great disasters in the Tang Dynasty. Xuanwu sent troops this time to clear the emperor's side, but the emperor abandoned the capital and ignored the ancestral temple. How could the emperor convince the public?"
"You mean if Li Ze got Li Yan, we would also fight him?" Zhu Wen smiled and said, "Isn't this a fart when taking off his pants, is it unnecessary? Who would believe it?"
"It doesn't matter whether you believe it or not. What is important is to give more people an excuse and a name to vote for us." Jing Xiang said: "It is worth it to use this fig leaf to earn some benefits in a few days. If you don't need it, just in case, you can kick it away. Of course, this is just in case. The best result is that we will take Li Yan down and kill him in Zhaoyi, and then we will be able to fall to Li Ze, which would be even better."
The two were discussing themselves, but there was another rush of footsteps outside. An officer stood in front of the bedroom gate and bowed to report: "Reporting to the General Jie Zheng, the acting governor sent an emergency military information. The General Qin Zhao, the Left Wu Guard, led three thousand imperial guards from Tongguan a day ago and headed towards Zhao Yi."
Jing Xiang glanced at Zhu Wen, spread his hands and said, "It seems that this matter is certain."
