Chapter 101 Decision
When we arrived at Yanqi, the sun in the sky was still hanging high. When the sunlight saw the soldiers on the city wall still wearing helmets and armor, we couldn't help but secretly think that the Anxi Army was indeed a powerful soldier.
Yanqi's city was an absolute military mansion. There were no idle people in the city except for military families. After Chen Guang and his party at the city gate showed their identities, they were quickly welcomed into the city and went straight to the guarding palace.
Before he arrived at the gate of the garrison, Chen Guang saw Li Siye wearing only a close-fitting sweatshirt and greeted him, "Thank you Chen Lang, this sun is poisonous!"
Li Siye's side had his own subordinates, and they couldn't help but feel a little jealous. To be honest, they had served this lord for many years and never received such treatment.
"You are kind to you, General."
Although Chen Guang also felt that Li Siye had come out to greet him in person, it seemed a bit past, but when he came, what else could he say?
Ignoring the eyes around, Chen Guang and Li Siye entered the ward side by side. Seeing the box carried by the fang soldiers, Li Siye couldn't help but be curious, "What good thing did Chen Lang bring here again this time?"
"Two jars of bean paste are clear, the general likes it, just take one jar."
"I thought it was a rare thing. It turned out to be bean paste. Chen Lang liked this sauce. Why didn't he say it earlier? I asked someone to ask King Long how many cars he wanted to come."
Bean paste is a commonly used sauce, with a fresh and salty taste, but Li Siye dislikes it light, so he doesn't like it very much, and there is no inventory in the guard office.
"Brother Li doesn't know that this sauce is an exclusive secret, and it's incomparable to the taste that someone has eaten on the market."
When he arrived at Li Siye's official office, there was no outsider there, and Chen Guang did not call him any general, otherwise Li Siye would have to make trouble with him.
"What sauce can have such a good taste? I'll ask someone to clean up the Qingshui sheep later. Let's have a good time to eat it at night."
Sitting down on the couch, Li Siye rarely asked his personal soldiers to pick up the wine. Even a drunkard like him would not drink a knife during the hot day.
After drinking two bowls of iced sweet soup, Chen Guang put down the bowl and said, "Brother Li is so enjoyable. It's hard for me to find a good cook in the city!"
"What's the difficulty? Which chef here, Chen Lang likes, will take it back then."
Li Siye has always been generous, not to mention that Chen Guang, who has been regarded as his confidant, even if Chen Guang wants to leave all the chefs, he will not frown.
"No need, I already have someone to choose, Brother Li is kind to me."
Chen Guang thought of Pei Dalang and felt that such a majestic man should not be a nameless person.
"Chen Lang has come this time very well. Our Dragon King has been very peaceful recently. Chen Lang, tell me, is this guy not the courage to attack the rich chief in the country?"
"That's not necessarily the case. When I went back to the palace, the king gritted his teeth at the old ministers. I saw that his expression was not fake, not to mention that he returned with the momentum of great victory. According to the truth, he should not be afraid of his head."
Even though he knew that he was not a qualified strategist, Chen Guang still had to enter the role. He was actually the two swords that he had read too much from the military officials under Li Siye.
I have to say that one of the authors who wrote about power struggles in later generations was counted as one, and their brains were all dirty and dark.
"This guy sent someone to ask someone not long ago, saying that he wanted to hold a banquet in the palace to celebrate the great victory."
Li Siye said this, Chen Guang's eyes lit up, and then he asked, "Brother Li, what are the recent movements in the Yanqi court?"
"I have always been too lazy to care about these things. If Chen Lang wants to ask, he will call someone to answer them."
"Then please ask Brother Li to find someone familiar with the situation in Yanqi Country. I think this king is going to take action?"
While asking his personal soldiers to call the mansion to join the army, Li Siye said to Chen Guang, "Is Chen Lang saying that this guy is going to take action during the palace banquet?"
Chen Guang did not answer, it was just his guess, and Li Siye did not ask. He looked rough and was not stupid, but he was just unwilling to think about it many times.
Soon, Yu Shenjun, who was called by Li Siye's personal soldiers, arrived. When he heard Li Siye ask about the recent movements in the Yanqi court, he immediately replied, "The general doesn't know that recently, in the Yanqi court, the local tyrant manors in the former land of the mountain country, were fighting for the tyrants of the local tyrants in the Shanguo's hometown, were tragic."
"Didn't the king intervene?"
"After returning to the court, the king still drank and hunted like usual, but he only handed over the matters after the quellion to several old ministers to deal with. Now they have been quarreling in the court for many days, but they have not discussed the result."
Although Yu Chanjun was curious about why Chen Guang asked, he felt relieved when he thought of the Lord Li Siye's preference for Chen Lang and just continued to answer, "The king recently said that he would hold a banquet in the palace to celebrate this great victory. Those old ministers agreed, and then the rich chiefs in Yanqi will come."
After hearing this, Chen Guang and Li Siye looked at each other, they made a judgment in their hearts. The king was afraid that he would take action and capture all the old officials and chiefs in the country.
As expected, no one who can become the king is simple!
Chen Guang thought to himself that this dragon thunderbolt looked like a rash, but he was definitely not a fool.
After Yu joined the army, Li Siye frowned and said, "The chaos in Yanqi has just been quelled. If this guy really cut down all the old ministers and chiefs, wouldn't this Yanqi country be in chaos?"
"It's not messy."
Chen Guang's heart was always in a state of confusion and made a decision. If the Yanqi country is not in chaos, he has no room for his performance. Moreover, those rich and powerful people are the culprits that hinder the development and progress of productivity.
It is rare that the king has such ambitions, how could he not help him!
"Brother Li, do you think those rich chiefs are obedient to the Tang Dynasty?"
"I'm so kind. The military rations we guarded are now all reliant on military camps and fields and the imperial court. These wealthy chiefs occupy a good place..."
Li Siye immediately started to scold the general, and then he understood Chen Guang's meaning. Since these powerful chiefs were useless in the Tang Dynasty, why not help the king with the help of the king?
"What we are worried about is that the king will kill the rich chiefs who come to the banquet, and their relatives in the local area will take the opportunity to cause trouble."
When he said this, Chen Guang's face was calm, but his voice was filled with a hint of coldness, "But what if the king asked them to bring their troops to watch the power of the Tang Dynasty?"
"As long as we gather all the soldiers of these powerful chiefs into the capital, can we still not suppress these mobs?"
Li Siye heard Chen Guang's story and suddenly felt that this was a great thing. Long Tuqi Shi cut down the old ministers and the rich chiefs in the country. In order to ensure the stability of the throne, he would definitely eliminate the roots. At that time, a large number of official positions would be vacant in Yanqi, which would just make the Protectorate's Office legitimately request to set up counties in Yanqi to manage them.
There are great benefits to this!
Thinking of this, Li Siye looked at Chen Guang and felt that Feng Er was just like this if he was here. No wonder Chen Lang could become friends with Feng Er.
"Done."
Li Siye slapped his thigh suddenly, which scared Chen Guang. He thought Li Siye still had some concerns, but he didn't expect that he made the decision so quickly.
"Chen Lang said it very well, and he thought about it. At that time, as long as the wealthy chiefs come with their troops, we will report to the court afterwards that they have raised their troops to rebel, intend to subvert the Long family and establish a new king."
Speaking of this, Li Siye also laughed complacently, and then said, "We are not a big king. If this matter is discussed in the court, the saints will praise us for doing well, so we should destroy those traitors."
Chen Guang really didn't expect that Li Siye could think so much, and he couldn't help but feel that he really underestimated the world. Who said that the powerful generals and brothers are brainless?
The two of them immediately discussed it, and finally decided not to clarify this matter with Long Tuqishi and just give him hints. At that time, everything should be done according to the opportunity. If Long Tuqishi gets done in the palace, they will help him suppress the troops of the rich chiefs. If they fail, they will come out to clean up the mess.
