People in the early Tang Dynasty: I compete with Wu Zhao for the throne

Chapter 454 Commander-in-Chief, Secret Order to Arrest People

"The Shang Order: Duan Baoxuan, the governor of Yuezhou, the governor of Yuezhou, General Wei, the left leader of the school, and the fake Jieyue, supervised Yuetai Kuowuquan and built the military forces of the six states to quell the chaos and civil disturbances in the state. The officials of the six states obeyed his orders, but If there is any obstacle, you can cut it first and then play it."

Black and white, placed on the table in front of Li Xuan, is an official document sent by the Governor's Mansion of Yuezhou to Kuowuquan, Yuetai to build six prefectures and counties.

The Tianyin Sect uprising was defined as civil disorder in Muzhou.

Duan Baoxuan took the post of governor of Yuezhou, inspected the left leader of the army, General Wei, and fake Jieyue.

False Festival Yue, if the emperor comes in person, can kill officials with less than three thousand stones.

In the Wuyue states, only the governors of the states were officials of Sanqianshi.

Duan Baoxuan, as the governor of Yuezhou, pretended to be a festival axe, and could directly kill all officials in the six states built in Wuquan, Yuetai Kuo, except for the governor, without asking for instructions from the central government.

The importance of imperial trust can be seen from this.

Li Xuan looked sideways at Du Bixing, the procurator of Wuzhou, who was standing on the side, and asked in a deep voice, "What else do you have to say?"

Du Bixing bowed his hands to Li Xuan solemnly, and said: "Your Majesty has something to say, the army of the Governor's Mansion will arrive in Wuzhou in a few days. Before that, the prince may wish to contact Yuan Chao and others to confirm his intention to surrender, and wait for Yuezhou After the people from the Dudu Mansion come, they will hand over the matter."

"Let's do it like this. Since Mr. Du is here, I will entrust Mr. Du to handle this matter." Li Xuan looked at Du Bixing with a smile, and he pushed the matter out very cleanly.

"My lord!" Du Bixing immediately bowed slightly to Li Xuan with a wry smile, and said, "Why should my lord embarrass my subordinates with such matters!"

"What kind of embarrassment is this? This is an important task entrusted to Mr. Yi." Li Xuan waved his hand directly, and then said with a sneer: "The so-called chief executive Wu Yue was just the governor of Muzhou before, and the so-called servant Yuan Chao was just the former governor. Muzhou soldier Cao Canjun, and even the fake Sima, have no official documents from the court, if this king should come forward now, then later, when someone from Yuezhou comes to talk to him, should Duan Dudu himself talk to him?"

Li Xuan shook her head, this kind of procedural problem, sometimes, is really troublesome when it comes to attention.

Such a reason is indeed difficult to refuse.

Moreover, Li Xuan can easily find a lot of similar reasons.

Because he really didn't want to see that Yuan Chao, at least not now.

"Li Canjun sits at Meiling Pass, Xu Canjun leads the army to fortify between Sanhe Pass and Lanxi, Wang Canjun and Shen Canjun build catapults in Sanhe Pass, but now they have assigned this matter to their subordinates. Your lord, you can't favor one over another. !" Du Bixing rolled his eyes, already playing the emotional card.

Before Du Bixing finished speaking, Li Xuan became serious. He looked at everyone around and said, "Go down first."

Many soldiers present bowed their hands to Li Xuan, and then retreated silently.

Li Xuan looked at Du Bixing seriously, and said: "This king will meet Yuan Chao, but not now. The reason why I let you go is because among the people in Wuzhou, Yuan Chao is the least familiar with you.

Among the crowd, except for Mr. Xu Jian, it doesn't matter if Xu Jian is a martial artist; let Mr. go, in addition to wanting Mr. to judge Yuan Shi's character, I also want to see if Yuan Shi will meet Mr. Yuan? "

"Could it be, why?" Du Bixing was stunned for a moment, but then he quickly thought of the reason, and said to himself: "If he refuses to see his subordinates, it means he thinks highly of himself. If he doesn’t pay attention to his subordinate Fa Cao’s joining the army, it means that he really regards himself as the Sima of Muzhou, or even the servant of Wu Yue’s general manager’s mansion?”

"Surrender and false surrender are only a matter of thought... Yuan Chao, how sincerely he surrenders and begs for surrender now depends on how much he is willing to come to see Mr. today." The calculations are clearly shown.

Yuan Chao did not directly lead the crowd to put down their weapons and enter Sanheguan to surrender, but made a gesture of negotiation.

In addition to asking for treatment from the imperial court, there is also the intention to re-raise troops to attack Sanheguan immediately if the negotiation fails.

The details here must be grasped clearly, otherwise, if you are not careful, you may get yourself trapped.

"This subordinate understands." Du Bixing understood Li Xuan's worry, he immediately cupped his hands, then turned and left quickly.

……

The King of Nanchang has no interest in negotiating, and many people can see this.

Although he is in Sanhe Town now, the arrangement inside and out has never stopped.

Especially Qianniuwei, who had already been scattered into the mountains in the north by him, and Yuan Chao would be noticed immediately if anything was wrong.

……

The sunlight falls on the floor in front of the door, gradually shifting from the west to the east.

At this time, there was a sound of footsteps, and Du Bixing walked in with a gloomy expression.

Seeing Li Xuan, he immediately cleared up his expression, cupped his hands at Li Xuan and said, "Reporting to my lord, my subordinate sat in the Muzhou Army for a day and drank a lot of tea, but the only ones I saw were Yuan Chao's. My brother Yuan Ying."

Du Bixing didn't see Yuan Chao, which was in Li Xuan's expectation.

"In this way, this king knows it well. He is either not very sincere, or he is too demanding." Li Xuan nodded directly, and said: "So, I will not interfere in the negotiation. I will leave this matter to Yue. In addition, let the soldiers prepare, we are going to enter Muzhou by water after all, and everyone must be prepared to land on the warship of the Dushui Division and go northward at any time."

"I will obey the order." Du Bixing immediately cupped his hands, and then made arrangements with great interest.

Li Xuan slaughtered all directions at Meiling Pass, tens of thousands of enemy troops were defeated by more than a thousand of his men.

Hearing this news, I don't know how many people's intestines are full of regrets, regretting that they didn't follow Li Xuan to Meiling Pass.

Otherwise, he would already be full of merit by now.

But it's not too late now, because they will soon enter Muzhou.

As long as Yuan Chao surrendered, they would soon be able to take over the entire Muzhou without bloodshed.

……

Li Xuan watched Du Bixing disappear into the courtyard at dusk, and then entered the inner room behind the nave.

On the couch in the inner room, Zhang Wanyu was sitting on one side, holding a copy of "Buddha Said the Moonlight Bodhisattva Sutra" in her hand, and a finished copy of "Pharmacist Liuliguang Tathagata's Original Vow Merit and Virtue Sutra" was randomly placed on the table.

Instead, she put it in "Taiyin Emperor's Law", "Taishangdongzhen Five-Star Secret Teaching Sutra" Taiyin Zhenjun Chapter, "Dongyuan Collection Volume [-]" Moon Palace Taiyin Emperor Chapter and other Taoist classics, she didn't look at them carefully.

Seeing Li Xuan enter the room, Zhang Wanyu immediately sat up, and said with a sneer, "The famous king of Nanchang, he even plots against his subordinates."

"When did this king plot against him?" Li Xuan was a little confused.

"You still said no. When you came yesterday, you clearly sent a message to Yuan Chao that you had arrived, but you didn't go to see him when you arrived. Instead, you sent a small soldier to meet him. Isn't that obviously looking down on people? , he is willing to meet people." Zhang Wanyu looked at Li Xuan with a sneer.

However, Li Xuan was not at all displeased with her sarcasm. Instead, she nodded thoughtfully and said, "He still has time to be angry. Anger means he still has the power to fight. It's just wobbling."

Zhang Wanyu suddenly shut her mouth firmly, she finally realized that she said something wrong.

Li Xuan stood up again in a blink of an eye, and quickly went to make arrangements.

Zhang Wanyu didn't see Li Xuan back all night, and it was only from Qu Ying the next day that she learned that Li Xuan had been busy last night and checked the files in the middle hall all night, and that all of them were local officials from Muzhou file.

Zhang Wanyu, a local official in Muzhou, immediately thought of Shixu, the governor of Muzhou.

Shi Xu had already hanged himself.

Now the whole Muzhou is really in charge of the house in name, or Yuan Chao.

Did the King of Nanchang realize what was going on?

The real ruler of Muzhou is Tianyin Sect, but Fang Fengjin is dead now, and Wen Fuzhi is not in Muzhou.

The only one who can truly be the master of the house is Saint Ye Wanwan.

Ye Wanwan, the king of Nanchang.

Zhang Wanyu always does not pretend to connect the two people together.

Zhang Wanyu has been with Li Xuan for several days, but she has never seen Li Xuan contact Ye Wanwan and Fang Qing'er.

Is it really her own fault in all this?
Or, it was herself who was really revealing the information.

Seeing Qu Ying put the food in her hands on the table, Zhang Wanyu couldn't help asking: "Qu Ying, you were also..."

Zhang Wanyu hadn't finished speaking when she heard a sudden rush of footsteps outside.

The voice was very familiar, it was Li Zhu.

Li Zhu stood still in the middle hall, solemnly placed a yellow leather playbook in front of Li Xuan, then turned and left.

Li Xuan glanced at the Huangpi Zouben, and frowned.

Because this memorandum is a reply letter from Taiwo.

Only Li Xian, the crown prince of the current dynasty, has such qualifications to use the playbook to reply to Li Xuan's letter.

Li Xuan frowned, opened the playbook, and sure enough, everything in it was in the emperor's tone.

A letter was a secret decree from Li Zhi through Li Xian's hand.

In the secret decree, after Li Zhi asked Li Xuan to personally arrest the Tianyin teacher, if anyone dared to stop him, Li Xuan could directly kill him in the name of an imperial envoy.

You must know that Li Xuan's official position as inspector of Honglu Temple has not been removed, he is still an imperial envoy and envoy.

Li Xuan now fully understands that when Li Zhi gave him his entire identity in Yangzhou, he has already calculated to this day.

Li Xuan stretched out his hand to put away the secret letter again, when did he become serious, compared to Li Zhi, he still had a lot to learn.

After the emperor asked him to personally arrest Tianyin, is there anything else going on here?

It's like getting involved in the matter of Empress Wu.

Those who dare to obstruct can be killed first and played later.

Who is that person who dares to obstruct?

……

Li Xuan suddenly smiled slightly, with a faint expression.

Just as Li Xuan put away the notebook, there was already the sound of hurried footsteps outside the door, and Li Zhu returned without leaving.

Facing Li Xu's hands, Li Zhu reported: "Report to the lord, the Sima of the Governor's Mansion of Yuezhou has arrived."

Sima Yao Zhi of Yuezhou Metropolitan Governor's Mansion is him again, but whenever something happens, he can be seen almost everywhere.

Li Xuan put away the playbook in her hand, and then walked quickly outside the door. After a while, the two of them had already walked in hand in hand.

After being seated, Li Xuan asked Li Zhu to serve tea, and then said: "Go and invite all of you who join the army to come here."

"Here!" Li Zhu immediately turned and left.

During the whole time, Yao Zhicai looked at Li Xuan with emotion, and said with a sigh: "It's only been a few days, but the lord has made a great contribution, beheading the general and capturing the flag. How can I feel so bad?"

"Joining the army, why come here to ridicule this king? Is it helpless? This king is a Taoist disciple, why did he commit such a big slaughter? After the matter is over, this king must go to the Sanqing Palace to meditate for a while, otherwise the Taoist heart will be dusted, and the future will be worrying." !" Li Xuan sighed with emotion.

"My lord is just joking." Yao Zhi smiled, then turned around and said, "I am here this time under the order of Duan Duan. The governor has an order: Order Wuzhou not to drive. Xuan, together with Sima Yaozhi of Yuezhou's governor's office, summoned Yuan Chao, the former Muzhou soldier Cao Canjun, to inquire about Muzhou's affairs, and if he is fraudulent, he will be executed!"

Li Xuan stood up and solemnly bowed his hands to Yao Zhi: "The last general obeys the order!"
