Volume Six, Chapter 686: The Intention of Carrying Qian

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    For Li Chengqian, he lived a very comfortable life during this period.

    Although he has not yet sat on the dragon throne and become the emperor of the Tang Dynasty.  However, being able to receive worship from courtiers in Liangyi Hall every day satisfied his vanity to a large extent.  The only dissatisfaction was that his uncles Changsun Wuji and Wei Zheng controlled the government, and he had almost no decision-making power. He could only obediently agree to the decisions they made.

    However, even so, he felt a lot more comfortable.  In particular, Li Keyuan went to the northwest. When Li Tai stayed behind closed doors, he felt no pressure in his heart and found comfort in his spirit.

    However, when the battle report of Li Shimin's Liaodong campaign was sent to Chang'an, Li Chengqian's dream was shattered.  He suddenly realized that he was just a substitute for his father. When he returned in triumph, he would have nothing and would still be suppressed by Li Ke and Li Tai.

    "No - absolutely can't be like this!" Li Chengqian shouted sternly. He didn't want to go back to his original life trajectory. He was already used to the current life, being complimented and worshiped by courtiers, and flattered by the eunuchs and maids in the palace.

    what to do?

    Li Chengqian was so distressed, how could he keep everything in front of him?

    Suddenly, a gloomy light flashed in his eyes.  Then, he timidly muttered to himself, "No, absolutely not, you can't do this!"

    "Chengqian, what on earth are you talking about?" The person who spoke was Changsun Wuji. Li Shimin personally led the expedition, and Li Chengqian was the regent. The palace was now like his backyard. He could come and go freely without notification.

    "Uncle, when do you think my father will return to Chang'an?" Li Chengqian asked expectantly.

    "The emperor's northern expedition to Korea seems not to be as smooth as expected." Changsun Wuji said, "With the emperor's character, it is estimated that he will not be able to return to Chang'an in a short time."

    "Really?" Li Chengqian said happily.

    "What's true?" Changsun Wuji said displeased, "Chengqian, what are you thinking about?"

    "Uncle -" Li Chengqian did not dare to look at Changsun Wuji and whispered, "I didn't think about anything - I just said that my father returns to Chang'an, then I will -"

    When he said this, he stopped abruptly.

    Changsun Wuji did not speak, but stared at Li Chengqian coldly.

    "Cheng Qian, you don't have to think about anything. Don't you still have an uncle here?" Changsun Wuji saw that his nephew was timid about him, Mo Yang, and comforted him in a low voice, "You have to learn how to deal with it while the emperor is away in Chang'an.  Do good in the affairs of the country, and when the Imperial Master comes back to see your abilities, he will definitely be very happy."

    "Thank you, uncle!" Li Chengqian said solemnly.

    "Also, in terms of government affairs, you can first get familiar with it and read the memorials from various places and the six ministries' replies to the memorials. In terms of military affairs, you still have to go to the military camp in person to have more contact with the leading generals and establish good relationships with them, especially  The current Minister of War, Hou Junji, although he does not command the army, most of his subordinates serve in the army, so you must not ignore his ability." Changsun Wuji said sternly.

    ¡°Uncle, don¡¯t worry, Chengqian understands!¡± Li Chengqian agreed.

    ¡°Well¡ª¡ª¡± Changsun Wuji left Li Chengqian with satisfaction and strode out of Liangyi Hall.

    However, while walking in the Royal Garden, he once again recalled what Li Chengqian had just said: I didn't think about anything - I just said that when my father returns to Chang'an, then I .  Changsun Wuji knew his nephew very well, and he also understood the meaning of what he just said.

    However, Changsun Wuji never thought about it from beginning to end. He didn't dare to think about it, and he couldn't think about it.

    However, the impact Li Chengqian gave him today was too shocking.  Thinking of how obedient he was just now, how he obeyed her words.  Changsun Wuji suddenly had the same thought in his heart.  He couldn't help but his heart was pounding.

    If it weren¡¯t for the extraordinary determination he had honed over decades in the center of the power storm, Changsun Wuji would probably have difficulty controlling his emotions.  He paid attention to Li Shimin's personal expedition this time. He analyzed the current situation for Li Shimin, analyzed the root cause of Li Ke's huge power and the solution, and then persuaded Li Shimin to personally conquer Korea.  His purpose in doing this was to use this Northern Expedition to create a rift in the relationship between Li Ke and Li Shimin, and then use it to kick Li Ke out of the center of power in the Tang Dynasty and eliminate his army of black guards.

    However, what he did not expect was that Li Shimin's northern expedition to Korea would be so unsuccessful.  He knew Li Shimin's character well. Since he had sworn to destroy Goryeo before returning to Chang'an, based on the current war situation, he would not be able to return to Chang'an for a while.

    Isn¡¯t this an opportunity???

    When Changsun Wuji thought of this, he was so nervous that he couldn't breathe.  During the short journey home, he almost fell apart.  He couldn't sleep well at night, and he couldn't stop during the day. In addition to rushing around to deal with various urgent tasks, he thought about this problem all day long.  Within ten days, a vigorous and vigorous eldest grandson Wuji suddenly turned into a lean man with a gaunt beard and hair. He carried his loose clothes and empty buckets around in the carriages and horses every day, attracting soldiers.  There was a lot of emotion and praise from the ministers.

    I don¡¯t know how many times, Changsun Wuji, who was exhausted both mentally and physically, had to keep such strange thoughts in his heart.  However, every time this thought flashed across his mind, he would always think of Li Chengqian's submissive attitude towards him. This was a surprise that flashed through his heart, and his heart was full of vitality.

    Immediately, Changsun Wuji began to mobilize the army frequently to strengthen the defense of Chang'an City.

    For the remaining two guards and more than 40,000 troops in Chang'an City, Changsun Wuji has the absolute right to mobilize them.  Because Changsun Shunde was the general of one of the guards, and he also led the general of the other guard.  Furthermore, Li Chengqian was nominally the commander-in-chief of the Sixth Army of the East Palace, but in fact he was the real commander of the Sixth Army of the East Palace.

    Therefore, after several defense adjustments, he completely controlled the entire Chang'an City's nearly 50,000-strong army.

    Furthermore, because he was physically and mentally exhausted during this period, Wei Zheng took the initiative to share his pressure, making Wei Zheng busy all day long, even though he was not even aware of the several changes in Chang'an City's defense.

    Therefore, Changsun Wuji felt vaguely restless in his heart.

    He began to seriously consider the current situation and began to make arrangements for all forces.

    First of all, he thought of the North King Li Ke who was far in the northwest. In the eyes of Changsun Wuji, he was his real enemy. If he didn't get rid of the North King Li Ke, he would not be at peace no matter what he did.  The second person who made him uneasy was the Eastern King Li Tai. Even though Li Tai did not have much influence in the army, Changsun Wuji did not dare to complain about his influence in the court.  Third Changsun Wuji glanced at the northern sky and remained silent. There seemed to be a struggle in his eyes, but in an instant they became as clear as water, and this hot light shone in his eyes.
