The third emperor of the Sui Dynasty

Chapter 474 Wuji, what do you think?
'The house leaks and it rains continuously, and the boat encounters the head wind' This classic sentence is very suitable for Li Jiancheng's state of mind at this time, the originally bright mood, because a pile of bad things in Nanyang is covered with a thick layer of haze.

Sitting below him were Li Xiaogong and Changsun Wuji who were also frowning. No need to guess, they also knew what the chaos of the [-] army under Li Shentong was like; even Li Yuanji was amazed and speechless. The fact that supernatural powers can make money makes many people sigh as role models of our generation, and there is an urge to go to Nanyang to worship the role model and ask the role model for advice.

"I don't believe Uncle Wang of Huai'an did such a crazy thing." After a long silence, Li Jiancheng sighed.

Li Xiaogong and Changsun Wuji looked at each other, and they both saw each other's brows slightly wrinkled, and the meaning conveyed from their eyes was surprisingly the same: something has happened, is there any point in pursuing it?
Li Jiancheng is a nearly perfect heir to the throne in everyone's mind. His biggest problem is that he has a literati sentiment and is easy to feel sad for the tragic things that happen to those close to him. To put it bluntly, he is indecisive, has the benevolence of a woman, and lacks a resolute emperor in the Congo. Temperament, if he has Li Shimin's courage and cunning, the status of crown prince alone can win over half of the military forces for him, Li Shimin can't shake his crown prince position at all.After all, the military generals are not all fools. They ignore the courtship of the dignified future emperor and go to a prince?But Li Jiancheng has never tried to win over, and even declined others' initiative to approach him.This made Li Xiaogong and Changsun Wuji very helpless.Of course, Li Jiancheng's personality can make the courtiers feel at ease to follow, and don't have to worry about being "flying birds, good bows; cunning rabbits die, running dogs cook" by him.

"I agree with His Majesty's point of view. The 'wooden weapon' scandal broke out at this time, sooner or later. It is really a coincidence. Made it up, I have to say, this move is too ruthless, it is completely aimed at the weakness of Huai'an King's character, after all, Huai'an King is really famous in the aspect of "greed", after this pass, the fake is also It can become true." After all, Changsun Wuji is a man of extraordinary resourcefulness, and combined with the current battle situation, he suddenly came to his senses.

"Your Highness, whether or not Uncle Huai'an is like this... is not important at all! This is not something His Highness has to consider now. The top priority is to replace the Nanyang army, appease the army, and restore the order of the army. Only by doing these three things well Only then can Qin Qiong be protected from Nanyang.” Li Xiaogong actually didn’t believe that Li Shentong could do such a thing that harmed the country and benefited himself. The problem is that Li Shentong’s greed was well-known in the Li Tang Dynasty, and Li Xiaogong didn’t have to believe it. It doesn't mean that the imperial court doesn't believe it, and it doesn't mean that the soldiers in the army don't believe it. If the "wooden weapon" incident is not handled in time or properly, it will cause the entire army to mutiny and collapse without a fight.

"That's right, only the presence of His Majesty or His Highness can appease the morale of the army and boost morale in the shortest possible time..." Changsun Wuji said here, expressing his own meaning: "Nanyang may become a battlefield, it is too dangerous, The safety of the Holy Majesty is related to the rise and fall of the country, and it is really inappropriate to show up. I suggest that His Highness personally go to Nanyang to persuade the King of Huai'an to make a business-like play for the generals. There are King Qi and King Zhaojun sitting here. something happened."

Li Jiancheng knew that Changsun Wuji was right, but the problem was that, as the Second Marshal of the West Route Army, he had no right to interfere with the Nanyang Army. Strategic adjustments such as a change of commanders had to be reported to the imperial court. Only with the emperor's approval and imperial decree could he unload Li Jiancheng. Since Li Shentong is a relative of the Li family, Zongzheng Temple has to investigate his corruption case.

Seeing Li Jiancheng's pale face, Li Xiaogong smiled helplessly, and explained on his behalf: "I really appreciate Wuji's suggestion, don't you know how I was completely wiped out?"

Changsun Wuji also understood, and murmured: "Your Highness, it's nothing more than a matter of authority. Your Highness doesn't need to think about it. As long as the army's morale is stabilized, the Sui army is defeated, and Nanyang still belongs to the Tang Dynasty, other things can be explained to the Holy Majesty slowly. "

"Wuji, not only that, to make such a major strategic adjustment, not only this side has to be reported to the Holy Majesty, but also someone from the Nanyang Army has to report to the Holy Majesty. Both sides have been approved, and it is His Highness's duty to cooperate with King Jin to fight. Therefore, King Jin also has to report, and the three parties have to report, and only after approval is obtained, His Royal Highness can go to Nanyang, otherwise, it will be useless if the crown prince goes." Li Xiaogong remembered this process that the generals hated deeply, and he came as soon as he opened his mouth.

"But this will definitely delay the opportunity of the battle and the important event...The consequences will be unimaginable, Your Highness..." Changsun Wuji became a little anxious.

"Hehe!" Li Xiaogong laughed for some reason.

Li Jiancheng finally felt the evil and bitter consequences of "the imperial court's interference in the military", and also tasted the helplessness and mixed feelings of the generals. I have to say that this feeling is very uncomfortable, which is also true. He was even more determined to break this bad habit, he looked helplessly at Li Xiaogong who was 'gloating', and said with a wry smile: "Xiaogong also said, without holy orders, it is useless for me to go! Please understand me pains."

Changsun Wuji sighed in dismay, "Your Highness, my Tang Dynasty is a new dynasty. It should be full of vigor and vitality, but it has only been a few years? It has become so bloated, old, rigid, and stale... Your Highness, I can assure you: if we don’t seek change, we will not be able to compete with the Sui Dynasty if we only use this... this set of old rules and regulations.”

After all, he was still young, and the eldest grandson Wuji had not yet matured. After berating him in great frustration, he sat on the sidelines and remained silent.

Li Jiancheng and Li Xiaogong also felt that their hearts were heavy. Even a wise man like Changsun Wuji was not optimistic about Li Tang's prospects. How should we fight this battle?
"Brother!" At this time, Li Yuanji, who was sitting bored, stood up and said with a smile: "You let me go, I can do it."

"You?" Li Jiancheng was full of doubts, and the expressions of Li Xiaogong and Changsun Wuji were in sync.

"Stop underestimating people." Li Yuanji curled his lips, and said carelessly: "Everyone knows that elder brother is a good man. When elder brother was unable to come up with the holy order, the general of the Nanyang Army knew that he would not obey the prince's order, nor would he I will be settled by Qiuhou! But I am different, I am a famous bad person... Who is not afraid? Who dares not obey orders?... They dare not offend me, and the emperor will pursue it, and they can put the blame on me, so there is no need to worry A little bit of responsibility."

"This……"

Li Yuanji's remarks really moved the hearts of Li Jiancheng, Li Xiaogong, and Changsun Wuji. The three of them were almost jumped up by Li Yuanji's words. I have to say that what Li Yuanji said really resembled that. .

"If Royal Father blames Eldest Brother, it's better to say that I ran away secretly. Anyway, this is not the first time, Royal Father is used to it."

"..." Li Jiancheng, Li Xiaogong, and Changsun Wuji looked like they had seen a ghost. Well, in fact, Li Yuanji did indeed look like the legendary one—an evil ghost and a fierce spirit.

Being stared at by the three big men like this, even Li Yuanji, who looked like a ghost, was a little terrified, and said angrily: "Is it okay? In a word, give me a letter."

Li Jiancheng didn't answer Li Yuanji, and after thinking for a while, he asked Li Xiaogong and eldest grandson Wuji: "Xiaogong, Wuji, what do you say?"

"Your Highness, I think King Qi can do it." Li Xiaogong also felt that there was no way to do it. After all, Li Yuanji had led soldiers for several years, and he had trained [-] new troops well. During the time approved by Li Yuan, the scene should be calmed down. As long as this precious time is spent safely, everything is still in time.

"Haha, Brother Xiaogong still has vision." Li Yuanji was delighted.

"Wuji, what do you think?" Li Jiancheng asked again.

"It's worth a try." Although Changsun Wuji also expressed his opinion, his eyes were full of worry. He knew exactly what Li Yuanji was. Although he had a good personal relationship with him, he also saw his true nature clearly.

When Li Yuanji was just born, his biological mother, Empress Dou, only glanced at her, and without saying a word, she asked people to throw away her son. It was so ugly that even the biological mother couldn't bear it, and it was even more unimaginable for others to see it.

Li Yuanji lives in an environment with strange eyes and pointing fingers, and his situation and mood can be imagined, so it is reasonable to become withdrawn.Of course it’s not his fault that he looks ugly, the fault lies in the fact that “ugly people do more mischief”. After he understood beauty and ugliness, he specialized in doing bad things in order to attract people’s attention. Over time, he became quite cruel, and he didn’t listen to people’s advice. Li Yuanji, who likes to do things on his own, but after experiencing the incident of "leading Yang Tong to burn Daxing Palace", Li Yuanji, who was once demoted to a commoner, has also become low-key, and has learned to be silent and hide his strength.

This does not mean that Li Yuanji has become rational and mature, on the contrary, he has become more cruel and cruel, and his methods of violence are more subtle.When he can no longer vent his inner anxiety and cruelty in a simple and rude way like before, he will show it from the other side.The most typical example is that he will try his best to torture the [-] new troops under his command to death on the grounds of training a strong army. Since the soldiers are afraid of him, they will naturally train desperately according to Li Yuanji's method. As a result, bad things turn into good things. The new army has undergone a radical change, and unexpectedly became a rare elite army in the Tang army. I am very pleased.

Li Yuan and Li Jiancheng, as the emperor and the prince, are always in a hurry. They have never seen the process of Li Yuanji's military training. Except for the acceptance results, they have never been to the new army barracks. Naturally, they don't know how Li Yuanji trained. , I don't know that there are many bones under the new army barracks, there must be two or three thousand corpses.And these were all soldiers who failed to pass the training and were hunted down one by one by Li Yuanji for fun.

Others wanted to see how Li Yuanji trained soldiers, but Li Yuanji refused to go out on the grounds that "the military camp is an important place, and idlers are not allowed to approach it".Because Changsun Wuji was grateful to Li Yuanji for his righteous action, he intercepted Liu Hongji who was ordered to assassinate Changsun Wugou on the way, and became very good friends with Li Yuanji, so he more or less knew the inside story of the new army's strength.

Of course, Changsun Wuji didn't tell Li Jiancheng the real situation. Offending Li Yuanji, an unrivaled evil spirit, for someone who has nothing to do with it, is not worthwhile at all.

Now supporting Li Yuanji, who has not changed his nature, to go to Nanyang, Changsun Wuji doesn't know whether it is a blessing or a curse, right or wrong, and his heart is worried.
