Chapter 889 Leading troops to fight

Wu Meiniang stood outside the tent for a long time, and her thoughts were full of thoughts. She found that Wang Ping'an's luck was really good. Any troubles could turn into good things when it fell into him. Moreover, his official position and title were rushing upwards. He never saw him fall out of favor at all. As a minister, it is really worth learning how to do this!

After a while, Wu Meiniang sighed softly. She had spent all her efforts and her status in the palace had not improved much. However, her efforts made Wang Ping'an get a bargain and actually made him the king!

Why is it for the title of king? It must be related to one's own affairs, but how do the two things get together? You have to ask the emperor.

Wu Meiniang gently lifted the curtain and looked inside. She saw that all the ministers in the tent had retreated, leaving only Li Zhi, and Li Zhi was on the table, covering his head, and it seemed that the headache had occurred again!

With a gentle touch, Wu Meiniang entered the tent, came to Li Zhi, and whispered: "Master, your head hurts again? Do you want to find my uncle and let him show you?"

Li Zhi said softly, raised his head, looked at Wu Meiniang, and said, "My Madam, why are you here? Don't call Wubing here. I guess he is happy at this time. The flattering people are one after another, and he is busy!"

Wu Meiniang pretended not to know that Wang Ping'an was the king and asked, "My uncle is the prime minister. It is normal for others to flatter him. Isn't anyone flatter him every day?"

Li Zhi forced a smile, but Kourong immediately climbed up his face. He said, "I, Feng Wubing, became the Prince of Liao. He is now the prince, and I will give him a golden seal edict tomorrow. If he becomes the king of a different surname, he will naturally have to flatter him and not be busy to death!"

Li Zhi's face became even more ugly after saying the word "death". He remembered Li Sujie again. A good son was gone. The sadness he was as father as he was, and even wanted to find a place where no one was, and cried.

Wu Meiniang sat next to Li Zhi and said, "Your Majesty, I know you are sad now, but you can't always be sad, so don't think about those bad things, let's talk about other things. Why do you want your uncle to be the prince?"

Li Zhi sighed and said, "It was because Shi Yi Mansion was talking nonsense that something happened. I could only change the original plan. In order to eliminate Li Ke's disaster forever, I had to send an expedition without illness." He briefly said what happened just now.

Wu Meiniang was shocked when she heard this. She instructed Li Yifu to talk nonsense, and originally intended to make trouble for Queen Wang and resolve Wang Ping'an's dream by the way. However, she did not expect that Queen Wang would not make trouble for Queen Wang, but turned Wang Ping'an into the prince!

This incident was a mess, and even if she was confused, she would never think of such a result!

Wu Meiniang murmured, "I'm going to congratulate my uncle."

Li Zhi sighed and said, "What's the point of congratulations? In fact, Wuyan didn't get any benefits. He had to say that he could lead troops to fight. He had actual military power, but he was not interested in military power at all. If he hadn't seen me being overwhelmed by Li Ke's affairs this time, he probably wouldn't have led troops to fight."

Wu Meiniang thought for a while and said, "Your Majesty, you won't blame him because Shi Yifu said something wrong, right? He is too honest and a little muscular, and he doesn't know how to adapt. How to say it, he looks a little stupid when he reads books!"

Li Zhi shook his head and said, "Of course, I have to blame him, but I will not punish him. Now there are not many straight ministers like him."

Wu Meiniang nodded and said, "Yes. The person in Shi Yifu cannot count on him for any major thing, but if he is asked to supervise others and tell the truth, it can be used. He is honest and is not afraid of offending people. Sometimes he offends people and doesn't even know what the truth is. He dares to tell the truth, which is a bit stupid!"

Li Zhi exclaimed and said, "Yes, this person is indeed a bit stupid, but if he is asked to be the censor, it would be a good piece of information. He dares to say anything!"

Wu Meiniang asked again: "Emperor, my uncle went to go to the expedition to Goguryeo. Who will be the acting position of his subordinates?"

Li Zhi said: "I can only stay empty first, and then he will continue to serve after Wuyan comes back. Wuyan cannot stay in the fiefdom. Didn't I tell you just now!"

"But, who should handle the affairs of the Ministry of Education during this period? Is it the Lord Changsun in charge?" Wu Meiniang asked again.

In fact, Changsun Wuji has always been in charge of affairs in the affairs of the branch province. Changsun Wuji is very willing to do this, but Wang Ping'an never said it, and Changsun Wuji is not so stupid as to mention it with the emperor. Isn't that a taboo? Two of the three provinces are under his control. If Ma Zhou has a little bit of a big deal, is Changsun Wuji the emperor or Li Zhi the emperor?

Even though Li Zhi was put into an empty shell, no one dared to tell him, so Li Zhi always believed that Wang Ping'an was very conscientious and was a very conscientious prime minister!

No one mentioned it, Li Zhi didn't think about it, but no matter how he thought about it, he would not agree to let Changsun Wuji take charge. This is not a matter of trust or not, but no prime minister can manage two important departments at the same time. This is a rule, and Li Zhi never thought of breaking this rule.

Li Zhi said: "It is impossible to let my uncle take charge, but Wang Ping'an doesn't have any deputy. They can also handle affairs without delaying anything!"

Wu Meiniang pretended to think about it and asked for power for her confidant. She said, "Emperor, isn't Shi Yi Mansion just from a disciple? She must be familiar with the affairs in the yamen. You have to let him be the censor. According to my opinion, it's better to let him supervise the disciple, and there is no need to give him any specific duties. Just let him write a memorial every day to report to the emperor to know about what happened."

Li Zhi frowned and said, "This seems inappropriate. In this case, officials from the provincial government will have complaints. Maybe they will make things difficult for Shi Yifu together. What you asked him to do will offend people a lot!"

When Wu Meiniang saw that Li Zhi was thinking about Li Yi Mansion, she was afraid that Li Yi Mansion would be difficult. She was happy and advised: "Emperor, as the saying goes, "Horse, it is said that horsepower is known from afar, and people's hearts will be seen over time. If Shi Yi Mansion can survive this period, wouldn't it be convenient to prove that he can be of great use? Moreover, if my uncle's expedition to Goguryeo will last for only two years at most, and he may be back in one year, and it is not too long. With the emperor's protection during this period, even if the officials in the sub-province are arrogant, they cannot kill Shi Yi Mansion, right?"

Li Zhi was soft-hearted, and when he heard Wu Meiniang say "make sense", he nodded and said, "Yes, you are right. And if there is no prime minister in the school, the officials will definitely be lazy. If someone supervises it, at least it can also play a deterrent role."

Wu Meiniang said: "Yes, as long as there is someone who writes memorials every day, he can make a group of people do things well. This is worth it. Moreover, even if Shi Yifu suffers grievances, as long as the emperor treats him better, he will not complain."

Li Zhi said: "Just as Mei Niang said, just do it. Well, call Shi Yi Mansion in, I will tell him and comfort him by the way, so that he will not think he has said the wrong thing and be afraid outside!"

Wu Meiniang agreed and left the imperial tent and found Li Yi Mansion. When Li Yi Mansion heard that Wu Meiniang had asked for such an errand for him, he almost fainted. The emperor thought that this errand would offend people, but in fact, it was the opposite. As long as he sold all the officials he had saved, it was actually the most convenient to make money. To be impartial, that would definitely offend people, but he never planned to be impartial. It would be more in line with his principles of being a human being.

Li Yifu followed Wu Meiniang into the imperial tent, thanked Li Zhi, and followed Wu Meiniang out of the tent again. Wu Meiniang told him carefully how to write a memorial, and if he wanted to win over a group of officials to his subordinates.

Changsun Wuji's tent, Prince Li Zhong's condition was relieved after taking medicine, and the child was already asleep. After Changsun Wuji saw him, he took Wang Ping'an to Chu Suiliang's tent, and everyone discussed how to repair Li Ke.

After discussion, Changsun Wuji personally drafted the edict and asked Wang Ping'an to send people to Zheliu to mobilize Turkic soldiers to Yingzhou. In this way, Wang Ping'an did not have to go Zheliu directly, but just waited for the army to arrive halfway.

After discussing for a long time, everyone discussed all the expected accidents. Wang Ping'an then bid farewell to Changsun Wuji and others and returned to Chang'an City. He went back to pack his luggage first, and waited for Li Zhi's edict to be formalized. He set off immediately and launched an expedition.

After Wang Ping'an returned to Chang'an, he went to see his parents first and told him about his title of king. The Wang couple was naturally overjoyed. The son actually became the prince, which was a great thing. But when they heard that Wang Ping'an was going to lead the army for an expedition, the old couple became sad again and were unwilling to let Wang Ping'an go. The whole family was about to separate again after staying together for a few days.

Wang Ping'an would not tell Wu Meiniang about it, but only said that the capital was not peaceful recently, and he led his troops to fight for an expedition and could not come back for a while. Therefore, he wanted his parents to stay in the fiefdom, which was far away from Chang'an and his fiefdom. No matter how the court changes, they will not be involved.

Although the Wang couple was not very willing, they heard that there were quite a few strange things in the palace recently. Once their son was not in the capital, if something really happened, the old couple really couldn't solve it, so they agreed and asked the servants to pack their luggage and prepare to break the willows.

The next day, Li Zhi's imperial edict was issued, and Wang Ping'an was promoted to the prince of Liao and commanded 100,000 Turkic troops to expedition to Goguryeo. Li Ke was appointed as the chief general of the Liaodong marching and Wang Ping'an was appointed as the deputy chief general. A systematic edict was issued, and officials from various departments immediately began to get busy and prepare for the expedition.

Wang Ping'an completed all the procedures for the enthronement of the prince, and immediately sent his parents and Xiao Taiping out of the capital and rushed to Zheliu. He went to Li Zhi to thank him and completed everything he deserved. He took the Ouyang brothers and the guards to rush to Yunzhou, where he would join with 100,000 Turkic soldiers and go to Yingzhou to "assist" Li Ke and attack Goguryeo!

During this period, Li Zhi issued another edict, vigorously praising Li Ke and exposes his slightest expression. As long as Li Ke destroyed Goguryeo, he would grant Goguryeo a fiefdom to him, break the land and ban it, and reach the highest peak of his ministers!

Since he had decided to leave, Wang Ping'an stopped delaying and took his confidant men to travel day and night. It took only half a month to arrive at Yunzhou. At this time, the Turkic soldiers in Zheliu had just received the news. Although the Turkic soldiers came and went like the wind, whether they were assembled or marched, they were extremely fast and could be the best in the world. However, in such a hasty situation, the Turkic soldiers could not arrive at any time, and had not even left the Zheliu realm. Asan Qiboer only sent a vanguard force of two thousand people to meet with Wang Ping'an, and the large army would take at least half a month to arrive in Yunzhou.

This is the fastest speed, and there is no possibility of any faster speed. Even if Wang Ping'an urges him, he will not be able to get the Turkic soldiers to arrive in advance.

After Wang Ping'an arrived in Yunzhou, he did not enter the governor's mansion, but left the pass. He found a place outside the pass and stationed in the army. When he saw the vast grassland outside the pass and there were only a few hundred guards around him, he felt that he was in short supply, so he found Ouyang Li and others to discuss countermeasures.

In the big tent, Wang Ping'an and Ouyang brothers sat on the ground. Wang Ping'an said: "We use Turkic soldiers this time to go to the expedition. If we are loyal, the Turkic soldiers may not be very loyal to me. They just live in my territory, so they have to be loyal to me. We only have a few hundred people, and it is difficult to command a 100,000 army. What should we do if they rebel, are unwilling to fight, and are unwilling to bleed for my Tang Dynasty?"

Ouyang Li said: "This is simple. If you want the Turkic soldiers to be obedient and go to war obediently, the best way is to allow them to rob Goguryeo. With the benefits, they will of course be willing to do it. But they are afraid that they will rob the robbery of the Tang Dynasty and the territory of Liaodong and the Tang Dynasty. This is what we need to pay attention to."

Ouyang Yi said: "Master, you are the prince now, and during the war, we can recruit some auxiliary soldiers and train them, and send them to the willows in the future. This can also be regarded as our own strength."

Ouyang Shuang also said: "Yes, we must have a decent army. We cannot rely on the Turkic soldiers whenever there is anything wrong!"

Wang Ping'an nodded and said, "Actually, I think so too. It's time to have some of my own strength. So why don't we recruit some auxiliary soldiers in Yunzhou? How much do you think?"

Ouyang Li thought for a while and said, "Yunzhou is a tough people and has many talented people, but its population is far less than that of Chang'an. Even if there are talented people and talented people, they may not be willing to go with us. According to my subordinates, they will probably be able to recruit at most a thousand people!"

Wang Ping'an slapped his thigh and said, "It would be nice to have a thousand people. You can't eat a fat man in one bite. If you pull tens of thousands of people away in one go, the governor of Yunzhou would not do it!"
