Great Tang Southern Emperor

And if the aristocratic family's deeds only made him frightened and angry, the fact that the king of the day actually got involved would really make Li Zhen murderous.

In fact, what the King of Heaven didn’t know was that he thought he could hide himself by taking a code name, but in fact Li Zhen already knew his identity—five years ago, Li Zhen was asked by Li Shimin whether he wanted to open the seal When he was in control, Li Zhen had already begun to suspect that some of his brothers were not of the same mind as him, and quickly deduced his identity.

It was also at that time that Li Zhen had already started sending undercover agents to the King of Heaven, and there were quite a few of them.For example, if all the people around Tian Wang were arrested and shot, there would definitely be many innocent people, but if they were lined up and killed one by one, there would definitely be many undercover agents of Li Zhen.Even the aristocratic family that led the Heavenly King to the secret gathering this time is actually controlled by Li Zhen, including Li Zhen's people in the royal business group—that is to say, in fact, what the Heavenly King has done in recent years Because in fact, it has always been under Li Zhen's control, and the hidden things he thought he did have always been exposed under Li Zhen's nose.

It's just that I understand it, but Li Zhen didn't stop the king's behavior. There are two reasons. The first is that the king is surrounded by his own people. Li Zhen can take his life at any time, and wait for him to show his fangs before doing it. It's not too late, and in Li Zhen's eyes, the king of heaven is a bait that he released to see how many people in the world are against him. Usually these people are hidden in the dark and difficult to detect, but the bait of the king of heaven is responsible for Gather these people around, so that the target will be more clear, and it will undoubtedly save a lot of trouble to carry out the suppression later.But so far, the effect of this bait is very good, attracting a lot of big fish, even the big fish like Changsun and Pei who seem to belong to the prince's camp, but in fact belong to the family camp, have been attracted. The next thing I have to do is much simpler, just kill it directly.

The second reason is Li Shimin's attitude, because Li Shimin came out of fighting brothers, and even killed his brothers with blood, so he is very disgusted with such things as brother killing, and he strictly forbids his own son If they do this, once they find out that they will definitely be punished severely - the reason why Li Zhen can get the crown prince so easily is not because Li Chengqian made trouble in the court and attacked Li Zhen, which completely angered Li Shimin and dismissed his crown prince.

Therefore, Li Zhen has always maintained the relationship between brothers, at least on the surface. The brothers love each other and are not in the same situation. This is what makes Li Shimin most satisfied.

It's just that Li Zhen never imagined that the king of heaven would do such a thing for the sake of the throne?Not only did he wantonly promise fiefdoms, but he also directly participated in the plan to assassinate Li Shimin—you must know that besides Li Zhen, this heavenly king is the most filial one in normal times.

This made Li Zhen completely murderous, but soon he forcibly held it back. The matter has reached the most critical moment, so he can bear it for another month, and after one month he will be on the throne. By then Didn't he just concoct him as he wanted?

"Okay, it's all right." Li Zhen looked away from the note, looked at her subordinates with a worried look, and said with a smile: "Let's continue the meeting."

"Your Highness, what happened?" Cheng Chuliang asked.

"You don't need to worry about this matter, I will take care of it myself, you go ahead, I will go out for a while." Li Zhen tore up the note and lit it, deciding to hide this matter. After all, this is a royal scandal, saying Going out is not good for anyone. Although the royal family loses face, they will have trouble sleeping and eating when they know the truth of the matter.

"Yes."

Walking out of the meeting room, Li Zhen came to the beach alone, sitting on the rock in a daze.

"Your Highness." Zhang Lang's figure appeared silently.

Li Zhen didn't look back, and ordered lightly: "The plan has changed, and the order will continue to increase the number of returning young soldiers to [-]. The [-] young soldiers will set off in batches and rush back to Chang'an—be careful to hide their whereabouts. It’s time for the guard of honor to set off, tell them we will meet in Dengzhou.”

"Yes." Zhang Lang bowed in response.

"Also, pay attention to the emperor's side. All the pills refined by Fangshi Lu will be replaced. Even if they are escorted by Fangshi Lu himself, he must find a way to replace them." Li Zhen continued, this Fangshi Lu Li Zhen's whereabouts are also in the hands of Li Zhen. In fact, a large part of the elixir he made was secretly replaced by Li Zhen.

Chapter 1236 The wind is surging (7)

Chapter 183 The Stormy Storm (7)

Although Li Zhen's people will replace Lu Fangshi's pill, but in order to achieve the purpose of deceiving others, and at the same time to show the enemy's weakness, Li Zhen ordered people to research a special medicine, which can be eaten by people. The spirit is sluggish, and the body will also have various symptoms, as if there is no cure for a serious illness, but in fact, although this medicine will hurt the body, it will not be fatal. You only need to take a little more tonic afterwards, and it will naturally recover come over.It's just that some ammunition was sent to Li Shimin by Lu Fangshi himself, and he witnessed him eating it. This kind of elixir cannot be replaced, so Li Shimin's body was still affected a little, for example, his eyes were damaged by erysipelas. To the point where there is no cure, can only slowly blind.

It is also fortunate that Li Zhen discovered Lu Fangshi's tricks in advance, otherwise Li Shimin's body would have collapsed after taking the pill for such a long time, instead of looking bad like now, but still able to correct the memorial—speaking of it I have to thank Daomen for this point. It was Daomen who provided Li Zhen with information about Lu Fangshi, which made Li Zhen notice him and arranged everything in advance. It's really too late.

"Yes." Zhang Lang replied again.

"Finally, continue to infiltrate the Heavenly King, but this time, we need to be more obvious." Li Zhen gave the last order.

"Your Highness is trying to make a fool of yourself, and then hide it?" Zhang Lang finally stopped being an answerer, and asked with doubts on his face.

"That's right, such a big thing happened around the king of heaven. With our intelligence capabilities, it is impossible not to notice anything. If we pretend nothing happened, we are the real undercover agents who have harmed us... Didn't we grasp some insiders? I didn’t kill them before, now it’s time for them to pay.” Li Zhen didn’t deny it either, only by actively exposing some undercover agents can the real undercover be covered up.

Of course, each of these undercover agents has been painstakingly trained, and their loyalty to Li Zhen is full. It is impossible for Li Zhen to abandon them so easily. It just so happens that other forces have planted many spies by his side. Some of them have been dug out by Li Zhen, but he did not kill them, but continued to support them, and would reveal some small information from time to time, slowly gaining their trust, and arranged some of them to the king of heaven By my side, it is to prevent this day—and now this day has finally come, and it is their turn to sacrifice, throwing them out to the real undercover as a cover, waste utilization.

"My subordinate understands."

"That's it, you go down."

"Yes, this subordinate will leave." Zhang Lang disappeared as soon as he turned around.

"..." Li Zhen continued to remain silent. The choice of the Heavenly King made him very angry. If it wasn't for the integrity of the plan, he would have killed him back to Chang'an even if he wanted to, exposing the true face of the Heavenly King.

"Your Highness." Fang Yiai's voice sounded behind Li Zhen.

"Has it been discussed yet?"

"Yes, this is the solution discussed by the subordinates, please have a look at it, Your Highness." Fang Yiai handed over a document.

Li Zhen pushed the document away: "No need, I won't read it, you can discuss it yourself. Maybe what you said is right, I should give you more room for free development, and it can't be cultivated in the greenhouse." The most beautiful flowers, after all, Nanyang will let you make the decisions in the future, and I will be far away in Chang'an in the future, so it is impossible to pay attention to you all the time..."

Hearing this, Fang Yiai solemnly swore: "Thank you for your trust, Your Highness. The subordinates will definitely do their best to manage Nanyang well."

"By the way, Your Highness, when are you leaving?" Fang Yiai suddenly asked again: "We can also hold a farewell party for you."

"There's no need for the farewell party. Things have changed, so you should pack up your things. This time, you all have to go back with me."

"This subordinate also knows, and has been prepared for a long time." Fang Yiai was very strange, why did Li Zhen ask such a question?As Li Zhen's confidant, Li Zhen went back this time to inherit the throne, so of course he had to go back with him, not to mention that his term of office had expired, and before he was transferred to Biechu, he would naturally return to Beijing to report on his duties.This has been a rule since ancient times, Li Zhen shouldn't be unclear.

"I'm talking about the fleet." Li Zhen had no choice but to explain patiently: "Didn't I say that? Things have changed, we must bring back all the power we can bring back——Bengong has ordered the accompanying youth army The number has increased from [-] to [-], so you should add a little more escort fleet to the Navy..."

"Could it be the letter just now? What did it say?" Fang Yiai's complexion also changed. What happened to drive Li Zhen to this point?You must know that Datang's fleet has always been invincible across the world, not to mention that all the fleets are dispatched at the same time, even when the entire fleet is dispatched at the same time, it is very rare. The missions will not be all the main force, but will be carried out separately, but even if the fleet is divided into several parts, the combat power is not something that ordinary pirates can provoke, and it is enough to dispatch a squadron at a time Unbelievable thing.

But now Li Zhen not only wants the main force to go out together, but also listens to what he said, he actually wants to mobilize the entire Nanyang fleet to go out together - Fang Yiai doesn't know what happened, but what he knows is that if it is true If all the main warships in Nanyang were gathered together, the scene would be absolutely magnificent. Not to mention provoking ordinary small thieves, I am afraid that seeing this scene would scare them to death.

Not to mention there is still the Boys' Army. Although there has not been much battle in the Tang Dynasty these years, the Boys' Army is like a sharp sword hiding the front, and basically has no chance to make a move, but this does not affect the reputation of the Boys' Army, and even more and more loud.And like Datang's navy, the Boys' Army is also a symbol of invincibility. Whenever the Boys' Army is dispatched, it means invincible.And similar to the navy, the number of youth troops dispatched each time is not large. Unless it is a war of destroying the country, it is difficult to see the scene where the youth army with a scale of more than [-] people is dispatched at the same time.

This time it was Li Zhen's return to the court. For her own safety, she only mobilized 3 people. According to the understanding of Fang Yiai and others, these 3 people can already make Li Zhen feel at ease during this trip. It can be said that even in this At the critical moment, there is a rebellion, and these [-] people are enough to wipe out at least [-] soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, or recover a territory of Dao.

But now Li Zhen actually added another [-] to the [-]...Fang Yiai couldn't think of anyone in the world who would be their opponent in this world—you must know that when Li Zhen swept Nanyang back then, it was nothing more than Only [-] youth troops were dispatched—what happened?

Chapter 1237 The wind is surging (8)

Chapter 184 The Stormy Storm (8)

"Your Highness, what happened? Should we notify the imperial court about the mobilization of so many troops?" Fang Yiai felt that he had to ask clearly. You must know that this was the mobilization of hundreds of thousands of troops. Although Li Zhen had The right to control Nanyang soldiers and horses, but such a large-scale transfer of marriage, even Li Zhen, my prince, must inform the court, otherwise there may be people with ulterior motives who spread rumors that Li Zhen is going to rebel—then Li Zhen will be called The yellow mud fell into the crotch, it was either shit or shit, and maybe even Li Shimin would become suspicious of Li Zhen.

Li Zhen, as the crown prince, of course understands the rules here, and just said: "Of course you have to notify, but you only need to notify the navy. Let's forget about the boy army. It's not my turn to say hello to them when I mobilize the boy army." .”

"Young Army is His Highness's private army. His Highness can use it as he wants. No one else has anything to say. It's just a matter of the navy. Those in the court may not agree."

Fang Yiai didn't say anything about the Boys' Army. Anyway, the Boys' Army is Li Zhen's private army. Although many people have written to the court more than once, requesting that the Boys' Army be placed in the court's combat order, they were all given by Li Zhen. It was fooled by various methods.And the most effective way is to ask for money from the imperial court—I have no objection to you guys wanting to turn my army into the Tang Dynasty, but since I started training the youth army, I have never asked the imperial court for a penny. I paid for it myself. Now that you want to join the Youth Army, please give me the money I paid for it first, right?Otherwise, could it be that your plans are in vain?

And often when the officials who fully understand Li Zhen hear this, they will immediately talk about him—are you kidding?Hundreds of thousands of young soldiers, just by looking at their combat effectiveness, you can tell how strict their usual training is, and the cost is definitely astronomical. Although the imperial court has money now, there are more places to use it, and it is absolutely impossible to buy it. From the Boys' Army.Besides, the training of the Boys' Army is closed. I don't know how much a Boys' Army will cost. What if you take us for a fool?

Just going back and forth a few times like this, this matter will be settled, and no one has mentioned this matter since then. Of course, it is not that they just exposed this matter, they are just waiting for an opportunity, waiting The opportunity after Li Zhen ascended the throne——After Li Zhen ascended the throne, most of the property will be confiscated. When they raise this matter again, how can you refuse?

Therefore, although this young army is famous all over the world, it is still Li Zhen's private army in terms of ownership. It has not asked for a penny from the court from the beginning to the end, but the number is a little bit more, which is far beyond what the prince's private army should have. quantity.It is at this point that Li Zhen has exceeded the limit. It is only because of his achievements that he has exceeded the limit. In addition, Li Shimin did not pursue it. Naturally, there will be no problem—and since it is a private army, then The transfer order was naturally in the hands of Li Zhen, even if Li Zhen asked the Boys to take to the streets to striptease, no one else was qualified to give any pointers.

The problem is the navy. Almost half of Datang's fleet is distributed throughout Nanyang. The number of the navy alone is hundreds of thousands. If the marine corps is added, the number will exceed one million—such a large-scale It is almost impossible for the imperial court to agree to military transfers, not to mention that the fleet will still go north to Chang'an. If any ambitious person uses the navy to rebel, the consequences will be too serious.What's more, if the Nanyang navy is transferred away, what will happen to Nanyang?You must know that the number of 9 navies in Nanyang is seriously insufficient, and it is impossible to defend against it in normal times. If all the navies are transferred away now, I am afraid that Nanyang will be full of wars the next day-those lawless pirates and those who are on the surface. Merchants, the unscrupulous merchants who are secretly fighting piracy will never miss this good opportunity.

If the navy just leaves, the nest of the back foot is taken away, then not only the navy will lose face greatly, but also the court will suffer heavy losses, and even Li Zhen, who is in charge of all this, will be implicated, and the throne may end here Maybe even fly.

Therefore, Fang Yiai opposed Li Zhen's order.

"I didn't say I want you all to go back." Li Zhen said helplessly: "Fang Yiai, you have been with me for 20 years, and you should know me well. Why are you so confused now? Do you think you Didn’t I think of the things I thought about? How could I make such a low-level mistake? ——I never said that Sinopharm would mobilize all the navy back... What I mean is that all major naval fleets in Nanyang must Deploying a detachment to follow me back home, I have done enough superficial work along the way... This time we will go back with great fanfare."

"So that's how it is. It's my subordinates who thought it wrong." Fang Yiai smiled ashamedly, she had been with the crown prince for so many years, yet she would still make such a low-level mistake.

But then he frowned again: "But even so, the imperial court may not approve it?"

Even if each fleet sent only one squadron back, there would be nearly 10 people. How could the court agree so easily?
