Datang: Only by resisting the decree can we become stronger

"Without the military order of the Tang court, how could their Youzhou army have traveled thousands of miles?"

"All the way from Youzhou south to our Tubo side?"

"Also, as long as the Great Tang King Youzhou dies."

"The Prince of the Tang Dynasty will definitely try his best to operate it."

"I'm afraid it's within them, so we must first cleanse the forces of King Youzhou."

"Especially the army of King Youzhou."

"How can it be so easy for them to go south easily?"

Hearing what they said, Qi Zong Nongzan frowned and shook his head.

"Things may not be as you think."

"The prince of the Tang Dynasty is still the prince of the Tang Dynasty."

"In today's Tang Dynasty, it is not his turn to be the master of the house."

"Although I don't know why."

"But I can be sure that if we do that."

"I'm afraid it's the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty. He must find us and pour out his anger."

"At that time, our end will never be better than that of the Turks."

"Furthermore, based on the prestige and power of the King of Youzhou in the army, among the people, and in the court."

"If he really died in my Tubo territory during the mission, we will kill him."

"If it were any monarch, I'm afraid he would pour all the soldiers of the whole country to attack us and avenge the king of Youzhou."

"Otherwise, how could he be outraged?"

"And when the time comes, I'm afraid that the first person who wants our Tubo to perish will be the Prince of the Tang Dynasty."

"Only when we die can we keep the secret that he ordered us to get rid of King Youzhou."

"Otherwise, as long as this news leaks out, he will definitely not be able to inherit the position of Datong."

Hearing Qi Zong's praise, Renkel hesitated for a moment, and asked for instructions, "Then, Zamp."

"This king of Youzhou in the Tang Dynasty, should we kill him or keep him?"

Qizong Nongzan glanced at him at this moment.

"Of course I will stay."

"Now, the artisan we want most has been obtained."

"Killing the king of Youzhou can only bring about the destruction of the country for no reason."

"Without any benefit."

"It can only be that the prince of the Tang Dynasty has been cheapened for nothing."

"Why would we do such a stupid thing?"

"As for the hatred between us Tubo and these dead soldiers, we can only wait for the opportunity to report it later."

"Isn't there a saying in the Central Plains that it's not too late for a gentleman to take revenge in ten years?"

"This matter is settled like this, and you can arrange it."

"The next trip to Tubo, King Youzhou of the Tang Dynasty, will be received as a monarch throughout the whole process."

"Only better, never worse."

"Although we can't take revenge now, we can still create some trouble for the King of Youzhou and their Tang Dynasty."

"Aggravate their conflict."

……

At the same time when this series of events happened between Li Qiu and Tubo.

In the outside world, many great events also took place.

First, in Chang'an City, one of Li Shimin's most trusted confidantes, General Zuo Tunwei, Qiao Jinggong Zhou Fan died of illness.

Zhou Fan is famously loyal and upright.

He is also one of the few close friends of Fang Xuanling.

In the past, whenever Li Shimin went out, he always ordered Fang Xuanling and Zhou Fan to stay in the capital.

It can be said that these two people, one civil and one military, are the real people in Li Shimin's heart who can entrust great things.

Now, due to the tension between the East Palace and Furong Garden.

He actually died, and he couldn't worry about the affairs in the palace.

In the end, he died of illness directly in Shangshu province.

Just when he was seriously ill and was about to die.

Fang Xuanling personally came to visit and comfort him.

Said he was so sick, why didn't he go home quickly?

At the very least, you can see your family members for the last time, and have a final explanation to your children and grandchildren.

But at this time, Zhou Fan shook his head deeply.

Tell Fang Xuanling: All my life, I have been greatly favored by Your Majesty.

A hundred deaths cannot be rewarded.

Now, His Majesty goes to Xianling to keep filial piety for the Supreme Emperor.

Before His Majesty left, he once again entrusted the important affairs and safety of the court to you and me.

But look at this moment, the crown prince and the King of Peking, the East Palace and the Furong Garden.

How can I rest assured?

If this happens, how can I, Zhou Fan, have the face to meet His Majesty?

Xuanling, you and I have a deep friendship.

In the blink of an eye, decades have passed.

Now I am going to follow Keming, and you, take care...

Speaking of grief, Zhou Fan trembled and shed two lines of turbid tears.

As for Fang Xuanling, watching this best friend is about to say goodbye.

He also held his hands tightly, crying all over the place.

After Zhou Fan's death, Prince Li Chengqian came to the scene in person to express condolences to his family.

On behalf of the imperial court, Zhou Fan was buried generously.

A few days later, Li Chengqian summoned the officials of rank three and above.

Discuss the candidate for the position of General Zuo Tunwei who is free.

Chapter 916

The position of General Zuo Tunwei is the third rank of the court.

Specially in charge of the palace guards.

Whether it is the grade or its importance, it is self-evident.

He is a veritable high official in the court, and he must be the person most trusted by the emperor.

Such a big deal.

It was only natural for Li Chengqian to call a group of ministers to discuss together.

The official position of General Zuo Tunwei is really too important.

Any person or force hopes that someone close to them can occupy this position.

Even the eldest grandson Wuji and Fang Xuanling recommended suitable candidates that they thought were suitable.

Like Cen Wenwen, he is naturally a close person on the side of Wei Wangfu who was recommended.

As for the East Palace, the new prime minister, Gao Shilian, is the head.

The one recommended was Zheng Guang, who was close to the East Palace and moved to Zuo Weiyi, a mansion general.

This discussion lasted for about six or seven days.

In the end, Li Chengqian really took the trouble.

Simply don't use anyone who recommends it.

According to the regulations and practices of the imperial court, Li Anyan, the general of Zuo Wuwei Zhonglang, was directly promoted.

Upon hearing the prince's decision, the entire ruling and opposition parties were in an uproar.

They all discussed in private, saying that the prince's actions in this way are simply lazy administration.

He didn't choose so many better options.

In order to balance the crowd, he simply recruited an old minister of the hidden prince who had never been recommended by anyone to be the general of Zuo Tunwei.

It is simply speechless.

However, Li Chengqian's doing so has his own advantages.

That is, it is possible that Li Anyan is not suitable for such an important position.

But fair enough.

None of us went up, so don't argue with anyone, and don't grab anyone.

So when Prince Li Chengqian finally finalized the plan.

Although everyone complained in their hearts, no one really came to look for it.

There are so many pairs of eyes staring at it, if Li Anyan is chosen, everyone will be fine.

But if you come to look for someone who wants to be replaced by you, others will definitely not agree.

On the other side, in the East Palace, Han Wang Li Yuanchang, Gao Shilian and others.

They all surrounded Li Chengqian and said: "Your Highness, this Li Anyan married the hidden prince Li Jiancheng in the Zheng family of Xingyang."

"Therefore, he is also the closest person to Prince Jiancheng."

"At the beginning of the Xuanwu Gate change."

"Even after Li Anyan learned that the prince was dead, he still led people to storm the Xuanwu Gate as if desperately fighting for their lives."

"A person like this is likely to be a person built by the prince for the rest of his life."

"He should have been killed in the first place."

"Later, it was because His Majesty was broad-minded, regardless of previous suspicions, and still entrusted him with important tasks."

"However, it is already his limit to let him be the general of Zuo Tunwei, who is on duty as the guard in the palace."

"But we absolutely must not let him become the General of Zuo Tunwei."

"Hand over the safety of His Majesty, Empress, and everyone in the palace to him."

Hearing everyone's words, Li Chengqian frowned slightly, but he didn't feel much.

"King of Han, Lord Gao."

"How many years have passed since the change of Xuanwumen?"

"Nowadays, how can there be Prince Jiancheng and Li Yuanji?"

"Time has passed and the situation has changed, and the Sri Lankan people are gone."

"Don't mention some things."

"Over the years, this Li Anyan has talked about everything and acted diligently."
