Chapter 682 Let him see all kinds of colors

Yang Ze asked if he wanted to treat Li Bowen as a cover, but in fact he wanted to show other Li royal families. Yang Ze would treat Li royal families well, so he should not resist him. This is the same as what Queen Dugu did at the beginning. ◇↓

Although the Queen Dugu killed all sides and killed a large number of people from the Li royal family, she did not touch the princes in Taiyuan after all. The reason was that she could not pass the throne to the Dugu family, and in the end she had to be her son to be the emperor. Then the whole world was still named Li, so she didn't need to uproot the Li royal family, and the princes in Taiyuan knew about this.

Secondly, the princes in Taiyuan are really cowardly, which makes Queen Dugu unable to harm her. No matter whether the princes in Taiyuan are really cowardly or fake cowardly, it is true that they dare not resist Queen Dugu anyway. Queen Dugu also needs such a group of people to show that even if she usurped the throne, she still treats the Li royal family very favorably. The Li royal family does not need to resist the death and rebel.

So, now the two old princes in Taiyuan have started betting on both sides, Yang Ze asked Chen Deyin and Wang Bulun if they should use Li Bowen as a cover.

Chen Deyin thought for a while, organized the language, and said, "Taiwei, my subordinates thought it was unnecessary. Li Bowen had no official position or title, but was just a prince. Although he was the grandson of Prince Cheng, in terms of titles in the court, he was just a commoner. If you accept him, then you will be too worthless. You will want any kind of person. Then, if there are people from the Li royal family to join us in the future, if they are born with children and grandchildren, then will you accept the Taiwei or not?"

Wang Peilun nodded in agreement and said, "Taiwei, Li Bowen comes to vote. Don't give him a good face. Instead, he will scold him. Anyway, he is nothing, scold him. So what can he do? As long as he loses his face, what is his face? Anyway, as long as he is embarrassed for a while, Prince Cheng behind him will come forward. Prince Cheng Li Shi comes to vote, and Taiwei can agree. Use Prince Cheng as a cover, then this cover is still a bit worthwhile."

Although Li Bowen is the prince's grandson, he has not been awarded a title. It is impossible for Empress Dugu to give a title to a cowardly prince's grandson. So from the perspective of origin, Li Bowen is a person like a golden branch and a jade leaf. But from the perspective of status, Li Bowen is just a commoner. What kind of title he will have in the future will be a matter of the future. At least he is nothing now.

Yang Ze is ambitious and knows that Yin and Wang Bulun know each other, so he should be more cautious in such matters. If he accepts Li Bowen this time, it will be like a loss. Everyone can see that this is the result of betting on both sides, but if other real-powered figures follow suit in the future, wouldn't it be bad?

Not to mention the distance, just say the nearest ones, the generals who sent their children and grandchildren to serve as hostages for Yang Ze would immediately feel a loss. If they had known that Yang Ze was so easy to deal with, why would they send their eldest son and grandchildren, or their favorite son, and just find an unpopular grandson to serve as hostages, and people's hearts would soon disperse.

After hearing this, Yang Ze frowned and said, "What you said is almost exactly the same as what I think. If you accept Li Bowen this time, it will be troublesome if you do this in the future. If others think about standing in the two sides, it will be a big disadvantage for us."

Chen Deyin and Wang Peilun were relieved. They were different from other ministers. Other ministers were ministers of the Dafang Empire, and they were Yang Ze's ministers. All their honors, disgrace, wealth and honor were all over Yang Ze. If Yang Ze was finished, they would have to be finished with them. It would be impossible to change teams. So whether Yang Ze could listen to the advice was crucial to them.

In the past, Yang Ze was very particular about everything and made decisions by himself. This was the first time he didn't make a decision, and then asked them about their opinions. Although Yang Ze still claimed that their thoughts were the same as his, they did not agree. This was an affirmation of their abilities.

Yang Ze asked again: "So, how should we treat Li Bowen? I guess he is coming soon, and he will arrive earlier than Li Bozhi. What do you think should we do and how to deal with him?"

Chen Deyin said without thinking, "Beat him hard, no other reason, just tell him that he, a commoner, also wants to surrender, overestimate his ability, and this is enough, just humiliate him and drive him away."

He paused and said, "However, it is better not to let others hear it if he is a commoner. Otherwise, if someone with outstanding ability among the people in the future will not come to surrender to the Grand Marshal again? If the prince pretends to be a polite and polite person, then his strength will be greatly increased."

Yang Ze nodded, and the thoughts were quite comprehensive, and simple and crude. Of course, it doesn’t take much gentleness to deal with people like Li Bowen. How could there be so much leisure time with a waste prince? Isn’t that a waste of time?

Wang Peilun did not have the brain that Yin was as heavy as Yin, but his execution ability was greater than that of the heavy Yin. He immediately said: "Taiwei, my subordinates are willing to give the prince a little color to let him know his identity and status."

Yang Ze laughed and said, "Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, blue, purple, all colors must be taken seriously. Well, if he is defeated by you, he will probably either go back to Taiyuan to find his grandfather Li Shi to cry, or go find that Li Bozhi, and then join Li Chongjiu's camp. If he can be so impulsive, that would be great."

Chen Deyin and Wang Bulun both laughed, but they both disagreed with each other, thinking that Li Bowen would not be so impulsive. Clue and stupid should be different. If Li Bowen is a cowardly prince, and heard that he was like this before, he should run back to Taiyuan to cry to his parents, which is in line with what he did before. But if he gets impulsive and runs to Li Chongjiu's camp, it is not coward, but stupid, and this should be impossible.

Yang Ze said: "Okay, it's just a prince. Let's talk about it here. Leave the rest to Wang Peilun to do. Let's look at the map and talk about the main business." He waved his hand and said that the discussion was over.

The three of them opened a map and began to study the mountains, rivers and rivers near Taiyuan. Where can we garrison troops and where will it become the battlefield for the decisive battle.

After the discussion, Wang Peilun left the tent and took a large group of Bohai warriors to the north and waited for Li Bowen.

On the way to Chang'an, Li Bowen delayed all night because of acting that day, but he was a sensible person. He knew that he could not delay this matter, so he was anxious to surrender to Yang Ze, but Li Bozhi and the others were also anxious to surrender to Prince Li Chongjiu. Although the two royal palaces were in secret, they were now hostile now. If he was not attentive, he was afraid that Yang Ze would think that he was not sincere in his favor, wouldn't it be troublesome?

Moreover, Li Bowen knew that Li Bozhi would fight to the road, and the two brothers would never get along as harmoniously as before, because both of them had grown up.

He rushed all the way, but Li Bowen was afraid that Li Bozhi would catch up, but fortunately, for some reason. Li Bozhi's guard did not rush to the road. The guard was not moving fast, but it was just a normal speed, so he actually rushed to Chang'an first.

It was only dozens of miles away from Chang'an. Li Bozhi looked up at the sky. As long as he worked harder, he might be able to enter the city before the city gate of Tianheiguan, so that he could go to see Yang Ze tonight. But he didn't know where Yang Ze lived. I heard that he had been living in the Ministry of War, but would change the place. But he didn't find out. After all, Prince Cheng didn't dare to send too many eyes and ears to inquire about the news in the capital, for fear of being discovered.

When Li Bowen was leading the team, he suddenly saw a few Hu stools placed at the bend of the road ahead. Several people sat on the Hu stools, all of whom were dressed in bright clothes, and they were all wearing brand new officials' uniforms. Even if they were not officials, but just minor officials, they looked quite imposing when sitting in a row.

Seeing that Li Bowen's team came over, the minor officials stood up together, and before that, one of the minor officials bowed and shouted, "I dare to ask the person who is on the horse, is Prince Cheng's grandson?"

Li Bowen immediately tied his seat and thought to himself: "How could they know who I am? Am I very famous in Chang'an? This is impossible!"

He immediately bowed to the slight official and said, "I'm Li Bowen, what do you call me?"

After hearing this, these minor officials actually knelt down together. The minor officials just said that they raised their heads and said with a flattering face: "The chief of the Ministry of Justice Bo Liu Zhiyu, pay homage to the prince." As he said that, he kowtowed three times as if he was decent. The same was true for the minor officials around him, and he was very respectful.

Li Bowen was surprised in his heart, the head of the Ministry of Justice, although he was a small official, he was also an official, but why did they wear only the clothes of officials but not the clothes?

He is a royal grandson, and no matter what, he is a member of the Li royal family. Even if he is a coward in Taiyuan, the prince is a prince grandson, and his identity is still far superior to that of an ordinary nobleman. So when he saw an official kowtow to him, he didn't care much. He just felt a little strange. He said, "Sir, please come up quickly, there is no need to be too polite. I wonder why you are waiting here, but are you waiting for someone specifically?"

Liu Zhiyu got up, his face full of smiles, and said, "The villain was ordered by the Minister of Justice of the Ministry of Justice, and was waiting here specifically to welcome the little prince. My Minister of Justice of the King said that as long as the prince arrives, he will immediately welcome him to the place where he lives."

Li Bowen was slightly stunned and thought to himself: "Mr. Wang? It's not Wang Peilun. I heard that he is the next Minister of Justice and a big celebrity in front of King Yang Ze of Yan. How could he wait here to see me? This is so strange!"

There is no Shangshu in the six ministries of the imperial court now, and there is only one minister in the two ministers on the left and right, that is, Wang Peilun, the minister. Wang Peilun will definitely become the minister in the Ministry of Justice, it is just a matter of time.

It's just that his qualifications are too shallow, just following Yang Ze's butt is not enough. He still needs some qualifications to become a small official in the same county a few months ago, and then he jumped to become one of the Secretary of the Shang Dynasty. This is too obvious. After all, the current Secretary of the Shang Dynasty, Shen Deyin, was still a governor before. Even if Yang Ze had to arrange his own people, he would not have done so obviously. He could have made Wang Peilun become the Minister of the Secretariat, and he was already a Rocket-like promotion.

When Li Bowen heard that it was Wang Peilun, he hurriedly said, "Okay, then please ask Master Liu to lead the way and lead someone to meet Mr. Wang for a while!"

Liu Zhiyu immediately stepped forward, grabbed Li Bowen's reins, and smiled and said, "Let the villain lead the way for the prince."

Li Bowen felt something was wrong. He came to surrender to Yang Ze. To put it bluntly, he was here to flatter Yang Ze. I don’t know if he could. But now Yang Ze’s confidant, well, is his subordinate, came to greet him. This is strange enough. He even led his horse to him and kowtowed him just now. No matter how he looked at this, he was confused.

But Liu Zhiyu spoke of the prince and grandson at once, and Li Bowen thought it was respect for his prince and grandson identity, so he felt a little confused, but he did not refute it and did not reject Liu Zhiyu's "good intention".

Liu Zhiyu was one of Wang Peilun's confidants. When Wang Peilun entered the Ministry of Justice, Liu Zhiyu was the first to surrender. He flattered Wang Peilun, which was a slap. When Wang Peilun was employed, he naturally arranged the people who could flatter him in important positions. Whether those who flattered him were really competent depends on what happened.

When Wang Peilun found Liu Zhiyu and asked him to complete this task, Liu Zhiyu was overjoyed. He had done this kind of framing people a lot before, but now he actually did it to a royal grandson. This shows that the Minister Wang trusted him very much and regarded him as his own person. Of course, he had to do it well.

After seeing Li Bowen, Liu Zhiyu defined Li Bowen in just a few words. This is a little chick who has never seen the real world and is very tender. It is extremely fresh and suitable for swallowing it in one bite.

Liu Zhiyu led the horse and walked far away, and arrived at a small town. The town was not big, with only a hundred households. It was not an exaggeration to say that it was a village, but the houses were neat and the roads were clean. The roads were paved with stone slabs. You could tell at a glance that this was a very wealthy town.

After entering the town, Liu Zhiyu turned around and smiled, "Son of the King, this town is one of the fiefs of the palace's chief eunuch Liang. He used to be a rich man and was specially used for brewing wine. He was very rich and very rich!"

Li Bowen thought to himself: "Why do you have to call me Wangsun? These two words sound quite harsh and make people feel a little embarrassed! Also, this small town is a fief of eunuchs? Eunuchs actually have fiefs, which is really inexplicable!"

He didn't know much about the matter in the court, so he naturally didn't know that Liang Dazhong was actually granted a marquis, and Yang Ze also made a large fief for him. He just thought that it was incredible that a eunuch actually had a fief. Isn't this a satirization of the imperial court's reward? Why should eunuchs have fiefs!

After entering the town, before walking far, dozens of burly men suddenly emerged on the empty road, all of whom were tall and strong, with fierce appearances. These men were all wearing military uniforms and carrying swords and guns. The swords and guns were all super large, just like these burly men.
