Chapter 220 Li Yan's messenger(1/2)
Li Ang was confused and afraid.
Li Yan was far away in Xichuan and had sent two batches of envoys to Xichuan, but Li Yan was not summoned to return to Chang'an.
Even these two batches of envoys were not their original intention.
But as for the fact that Li Yan was not ordered to return to the capital, when Li Ang thought about it, he felt that Li Yan was really likely to be the king of Nanzhao as these officials said.
Although Nanzhao was originally the King of Yunnan under the title of Tang State.
But the King of Yunnan is not Li after all.
It is even more of a country.
Li Ang was thinking.
If Li Yan really made himself king in Nanzhao, will Li Yan really lead his troops to slowly devour his country like Nanzhao before?
'No, no. Brother Yan said that he attacked Nanzhao just to avenge the people of Xichuan, and did not really want to become king. Besides, Brother Yan was far away in Nanzhao, and Niu Sengru was stuck in Xichuan and could not enter Nanzhao. I think Niu Sengru must not know the real situation of Brother Yan.'
When Li Ang was in a state of confusion, he remembered the secret letters that Li Yan had sent to him many times by Wang Shu.
The secret letter was as he thought.
Li Yan attacked Nanzhao to avenge the people of Xichuan.
Furthermore.
The memorial sent by Niu Sengru did not bluntly say that Li Yan had already made himself king in Nanzhao.
So far.
Although Li Ang’s heart is in chaos, he is afraid.
But if Li Yan did not claim to be the king of Nanzhao, then whether it was Niu Sengru or the officials of all dynasties, they would be unbelievable.
Li Ang, who had an idea, looked at all the officials in the hall and said, "Brother Yan led the Xichuan army to capture Nanzhao, and was far away in Yangjume City, the capital of Nanzhao. Niu Xiang had not entered Nanzhao and saw Yan brother Yan, and he did not claim to be the king to the outside world. Therefore, this is beyond words."
"Your Majesty, if Li Yan declares to be the king of his own, it will be too late. Please make sure that your Majesty decides and issue three imperial edicts in a row to reprimand Li Yan to return to the capital." Li Zongmin still replied.
For Li Zongmin.
If Li Yan is in Xichuan for a long time, he will inevitably grow stronger.
Moreover, Li Yan was in Xichuan and controlled Nanzhao again.
Until now, even Niu Sengru, who is the prime minister, cannot enter Nanzhao. From then on, Li Zongmin believed that Li Yan wanted to leave a piece of land for himself, and fortunately, he would develop and strengthen himself on his own land. When the time came, he would inevitably become king.
If Li Yan did not return to Beijing for a long time, Li Zongmin was afraid that once Li Yan grew stronger, he would definitely lead troops back to Chang'an.
By then.
He was not allowed to decide whether Li Zongmin's life or death.
so.
Li Zongmin only thought several times that Li Yan was preparing to become king, and even encouraged all the officials of the dynasty to put pressure on Li Ang together.
As Li Zongmin said, he fell behind.
The other officials agreed again.
"Your Majesty, although Li Yan has not claimed to be the king of his own, Li Yan has already conquered Nanzhao, so why should he prevent Niu from entering Nanzhao?"
"Yes, Your Majesty. Mr. Niu is the prime minister of our dynasty, and he was even more envoys to go to Xichuan. If Mr. Niu cannot enter Nanzhao, why should he, Li Yan, prevent Mr. Niu from entering Nanzhao? Could it be that Mr. Li Yan is afraid of something? Or is he, afraid of returning to Beijing?"
"Li Yan prevented our dynasty from entering Nanzhao, and his heart would be different."
"Your Majesty, please issue three imperial edicts in a row to reprimand Li Yan to return to the capital."
“…”
The officials of the dynasty had already put pressure on Li Ang to a point.
And at this time.
Wang Shoucheng stood up again and bowed to Li Ang and said, "Your Majesty, no matter what, Li Yan must return to Beijing. As for the Xichuan Jiedushi, he can replace him first to get Li Yan back to Beijing. As for the Nanzhao affairs, he can also be dealt with by the new Xichuan Du envoy."
Only Wang Shoucheng could think of such suggestions.
Li Yan went to Xichuan to serve as the governor of the army, which was originally done by his Wang Shoucheng.
But now.
The idea of replacing him, Li Yan, is still Wang Shoucheng's idea.
He is also him in front and behind.
Wang Shoucheng is really like a villain.
If Li Yan was present, Li Yan had to run over and give him a mouthful.
Li Angxin was in chaos again.
What the court officials said was unreasonable, and Wang Shoucheng's suggestion could indeed be used to test Li Yan's attitude.
If Li Yan ordered that he would be resigned from the governor of Xichuan, then Li Yan would definitely have to return to Beijing.
Otherwise, I would have to make myself king in Nanzhao.
If you return to the capital, Li Yan will become the king in Nanzhao, which is a guess from the officials of the dynasty, and it will not be true.
But if Wang Shoucheng's suggestion was adopted and Li Yan's Xichuan Jiedushi was removed, it would inevitably be extremely easy to force Li Yan to become king in Nanzhao.
even.
At that time, Xichuan, the governor may be lost.
Li Ang, who was confused, was unable to understand the words inside by the officials from both sides and the officials from both sides, and even began to be influenced by the words of the officials from all sides.
final.
As a last resort, Li Ang issued an imperial edict, urging Li Yan to return to Beijing within one month.
When the officials of the dynasty saw that Li Ang finally issued an order and fulfilled their wishes, everyone would smile and wait for Li Yan to return to Beijing.
As for the three consecutive imperial edicts mentioned by Li Zongmin, it depends on the result after the first imperial edict was passed to Li Yan.
After the imperial edict was passed to Nanzhao.
When the Ying Prince's Mansion learned about the situation, it started to be in chaos again.
After hearing about this, Wang Shu once again wanted to go to the palace to plead with Li Ang, or convey to Li Ang a secret letter recently sent to Li Ang.
But this time, just like the last time, I couldn't even enter the palace gate.
Wang Shu returned to the palace lonely, as anxious as she was.
Li You and the others were quiet and said nothing. Even after seeing Wang Shu's expression, they never said anything more, and even did not comfort her.
Wang Shu, a woman, has been busy with Li Yan's affairs.
But Li You and the others knew that Li Yan's plan was too big and had only told them these close friends, and even Wang Shu had never told them.
They wanted to tell Wang Shu about Li Yan's plan, but they were afraid that Wang Shu would go to the palace to show Li Ang again after hearing Li Yan's plan.
to this end.
Li You and others had to watch Wang Shu anxiously.
at this time.
In the Gelifang in Chang'an City, after hearing that Li Yan had already led the Xichuan army to capture Nanzhao, all the people were talking on the streets and alleys.
There is something to celebrate.
Some are worried too.
More accusations.
At a certain house of the history of the house.
After hearing this news, Shi Jingfeng was very happy, "King Ying is really a god. I have never thought about it by conquering the Nanzhao country with tens of thousands of troops in Xichuan alone. Unfortunately, the people in the court only valued the immediate interests and only for their own interests, and never thought about what will happen in the future."
"Uncle, King Ying can conquer the Xia Nanzhao country, which shows that King Ying's leadership of the army can be compared with his uncle." Shi Jingfeng's nephew Shi Zezhong complimented.
Shi Jingfeng shook his head, "You are too proud of your uncle. If you let your uncle be the governor of Xichuan, for only one or two years, your uncle did not have the ability to rectify the Xichuan army, and he would be unable to conquer Xia Nanzhao. Even if tens of thousands of troops attacked Nanzhao, your uncle could only avoid being forced to deal with it, but he could not invade Nanzhao."
Shi Jingfeng is a military talent.
Unfortunately, Shi Jingfeng resigned from his post and went to the general on the grounds of recuperation.
Shi Jingfeng knew that it was difficult for people in the court to deal with. If he had been in the court, he would inevitably end up in ruins.
so.
Shi Jingfeng resigned directly and went to the general. He took his juniors to live in Chang'an City and sat down to see the movements of the court.
In addition, Shi Jingfeng was older, otherwise, Shi Jingfeng had to go to Xichuan and recommend himself to Li Yan.
but.
Shi Jingsheng was not old enough to move. Moreover, his younger generations served him for many years, and he learned a lot of his ability to march and fight.
For this reason, Shi Jingfeng had already had an idea in his mind.
