The news of the Jiangdu mutiny spread all over the north and south of the river, the Central Plains and Hebei, and the Longyou of Guanzhong in just a few days, and the people of the world were all shocked, and at the same time denounced Yu Wenhua and the madness, murder of the king, and usurped the throne, and called on the people of the world to discuss it.
Chang'an, Tang Wangfu, Dou Wei, the secretary of the Ministry of Shangshu, hurriedly came to the Xiangguo official room, as expected, the Dou family became the biggest winner of Li Yuan's entry into Chang'an, not only Dou Wei was named the secretary of the Ministry of Shangshu, Dou Kang was also named the Taiyuan Left-behind Mansion Governor, Dou Jin was named the master craftsman, and several Dou clansmen were also named the county guard.
Dou Wei held the real power of the ministry and became Li Yuan's most trusted person, and when the guards saw Dou Wei coming, they hurriedly reported, "Xiangguo, Dou Shangshu is here!" ”
"Please come in!" Li Yuan's voice came from the room.
Dou Wei walked into the room quickly, and saw that Li Jiancheng was also in the room, he hurriedly bowed down and saluted: "Weichen see His Royal Highness King Tang!" ”
"Dou Shangshu, please take a seat!"
Dou Wei is Li Yuan's elder, Li Yuan is not good at calling him a cousin, so he has to be commensurate with his official position, which makes him a little rusty, but it is also very formal.
Dou Wei sat down and nodded to Li Jiancheng again, he was a little strange in his heart, why wasn't Shimin here? Generally discussing important matters, Li Yuan will definitely bring Li Shimin to discuss together.
Li Yuan seemed to understand his thoughts, and smiled: "Shimin went to inspect Longxi for me, there was Diao people in Jincheng County who made trouble, and they actually beat Taishou to death, and I got the news in the middle of the night last night, so Shimin led the army to rush there overnight." ”
Dou Wei was startled and beat Taishou to death, this is not an ordinary trouble. It is likely to be related to Xue Ju, but although Li Yuan said it lightly, Li Shimin set off overnight, which shows that Li Yuan actually attaches great importance to this matter.
Dou Wei also knew that there were more important things at the moment, such as the Jiangdu Mutiny, which was a major event in the world. He put aside Li Shimin's matter and said in a low voice: "Your Highness is looking for me, but for the matter of Jiangdu?" ”
Li Yuan shook his head, "Although the Jiangdu mutiny is shocking, Yu Wenhua is not enough to worry me, in fact, I am more concerned about Zhang Xuan." ”
"Jang Hyun?"
Dou Wei quickly searched for information about Zhang Xuan in his mind, and he remembered the latest thing about Zhang Xuan, that is, Zhang Xuan was named the king of Qi and the general of the hussars, which was sealed by Yang Guang himself. Obviously, he wanted to entrap Jaang-hyun to deal with them.
Dou Wei groaned and said, "Could it be that Zhang Xuan is not the king of Qi?" ”
Li Yuan smiled faintly, "I have already received the news that Zhang Xuan was named the king of Qi because Yu Shiji persuaded Yang Guang, it should be a generous gift from Yu Shiji to Zhang Xuan for his son and family, but it can also be seen that Yang Guang hates me to the bone, and in order to let Zhang Xuan deal with me, he did not hesitate to give him his son's prince, but what I want to talk about today is not this matter." ”
Dou Wei realized that he had guessed wrong. He hurriedly said: "Weichen's news is lagging behind, please make it clear to Your Highness!" ”
Li Yuan to Li Jiancheng. "Da Lang tell Dou Shangshu!"
Li Jiancheng not only served as the governor of the Eastern Route Army, but was also named the squire of the military department, and at the same time controlled the secret intelligence agency of the Tang Palace.
He leaned over to Dou Wei and said, "We have received reliable information that Zhang Xuan has been hiding in Donghai County with tens of thousands of troops for almost ten days. ”
Dou Wei was taken aback, "Does he know that there will be a mutiny in Jiang?" ”
Li Jiancheng nodded. "He obviously knew all along that not only did he preemptively pick up dozens of important officials, but he also secretly notified Yang Qi on the day of the mutiny, but it was too late to do so."
Then. Li Yuan snorted coldly, "This person's far-reaching vision, clever means, and scheming make me really willing to bow down, not only laid out early, but also allowed the mutiny to happen, and finally made people feel that he was trying his best to stop the mutiny, save the court, wait for Yu Culture and be a villain, and now he has come to pick the peaches of the mutiny." ”
Dou Wei's face changed several times, he savored it carefully, Li Yuan was right, Zhang Xuan was probably already fighting Jiangdu's idea to establish a foundation in Donghai County, and the Qingzhou Army was stationed in Donghai County, obviously to intercept Yu Wenhua and go north in the Huai River.
"What does Your Highness mean? How do we respond? ”
Dou Wei had already vaguely guessed what Li Yuan meant, and wanted to take advantage of the emptiness in the south of Hebei to send troops to Hebei.
Li Yuan nodded, "Since Zhang Xuan is going to eat big meat, I can't reach it, but I want Hanoi County to establish a foundation south of Taihang Mountain." ”
Dou Wei nodded, "Does Your Highness want the old minister to lead the army to the battle?" ”
Dou Wei served as the Taishou of Hanoi County twenty years ago, stayed there for five years, and had quite a lot of connections in Hanoi County, since Li Yuan had brought him here, he must have wanted to let him go to Hanoi County.
Li Yuan said with a smile: "How can I let Duke Dou lead the troops, I decided to let Cheng Cheng lead the army to the battle, please ask Duke Dou to accompany the army and point out the build." ”
"Wei Chen understands, and he will not disappoint His Highness."
As the three of them were talking, there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps outside, and someone was in a hurry outside, "Qi Xiangguo, Luoyang sent an urgent report!" ”
"Bring it in!" Li Yuan frowned.
A guard walked into the room, got down on one knee, handed over a paperwork, and retreated.
Li Yuan opened the document and read it, his face suddenly changed, and he couldn't say a word for a while.
"What's going on?" Li Jiancheng and Dou Wei asked in unison.
Li Yuan smiled bitterly and said slowly: "Yang Tong, the king of Yue, has ascended the throne in Luoyang. ”
For a while, the official room was very quiet, Li Yuan was pacing back and forth in the room with his hands in his hands, and Dou Wei persuaded again: "Weichen is still the original opinion, I hope that His Royal Highness can comply with the will of the officials and the people, and seal the throne of the Chan emperor as soon as possible, so as not to disappoint everyone." ”
Li Jiancheng next to him also persuaded: "Father, Dou Shangshu is right, since Yang Guang is dead, the Great Sui will exist in name only, why didn't my father build a new dynasty as soon as possible, give everyone hope, I believe that no one wants to guard the dead tree of the Great Sui anymore, the child feels that the time is ripe, father should not hesitate anymore." ”
Li Yuan let out a long sigh, "I sent you to attack Hanoi County, in fact, I just don't want to listen to the repeated persuasion of the two of you, why don't you understand my feelings?" ”
Li Jiancheng wanted to say more, but Dou Wei waved his hand to stop him, and said sincerely: "If Your Highness has any thoughts, you might as well say it and let us understand, I think communication is more important." ”
Li Yuan had to say slowly: "Yu Wenhua and the queen of the murder still know that another monarch will be established, but I dare not directly usurp the throne, the monarch's bones are not cold, I will directly ascend the throne and establish a dynasty, isn't it worse than Yu Wenhua, it will make the world despised, and it also gave Zhang Xuan and others an excuse to attack me, so I don't think it's time yet." ”
Li Jiancheng and Dou Wei glanced at each other, both of them felt the worry in Li Yuan's heart, this worry not only came from the pressure of etiquette, they felt that it was more of the pressure brought by Zhang Xuan, Li Jiancheng especially understood his father's mood, Zhang Xuan was named the queen of Qi, and his father couldn't sleep for two days in a row, which shows the huge pressure that Zhang Xuan brought to his father.
In fact, Li Jiancheng and Dou Wei both saw the timidity in Li Yuan's heart, Li Yuan didn't care about any etiquette, Yang Guang was dead, and the Great Sui existed in name only, it was a good opportunity to establish a new dynasty, if there was no Zhang Xuan, a powerful opponent, Li Yuan would not hesitate to establish a dynasty to ascend the throne, and it was Zhang Xuan's refusal to give up the Sui Dynasty that made Li Yuan dare not rashly establish a new dynasty to replace the Great Sui.
But it is not a way to drag on like this, Dou Wei groaned and said: "Your Highness, why don't we compromise, we mourn for Yang Guangju, and we will consider establishing a new dynasty after the three-month mourning period expires, so that we can also do our best to be benevolent and righteous to the Great Sui, and we can also block the mouths of the people of the world." ”
Li Yuan thought about it, this is okay, at least he doesn't have to ascend the throne immediately, which makes him feel cramped.
"Okay!"
Li Yuan sighed, "According to Dou Shangshu's meaning, we mourn the unfortunate death of the Emperor Taishang. ”
