Zhu Wen, Wang Jian, and Li Maozhen all raised their glasses to praise each other and drank together.
Putting down the wine glass, Li Ye suddenly felt a little strange. The world is always full of coincidences. In the future, Zhu Wen, who established Daliang in the Central Plains, Li Maozhen, who became king in Fengxiang, and Wang Jian, who became emperor in Shu, all gathered together at this moment. Based on everyone's achievements in the future, those who are present today seem to be half of Jiuzhou.
If Li Keyong also came, then the most famous hero in the late Tang Dynasty who rose up in the process of quelling the Huangchao Rebellion would be included.
Of course Li Keyong would not come to see Li Ye, at the moment he was drinking alone in the big tent of the military camp.
The tent was brightly lit, but Li Keyong was not the only one, Monk Huiming was also there, but Huiming didn't drink, so Li Keyong was even more depressed.
"The poor monk heard that Zhu Wen, Wang Jian, Song Wentong and others all went to Prince An's Mansion to drink, why didn't the commander-in-chief go?" Huiming suddenly said.
It's okay not to mention Li Ye, but if Li Keyong is mentioned, he will get angry. He said angrily: "If it weren't for Li Ye, who plotted against me insidiously, how could our Yanmen army lose the credit for conquering the capital? I can't wait to take it How can his skin drink with him?!"
Huiming said calmly: "The one who knows the current affairs is Junjie. An Wang conquered Tongguan, killed Huang Chao, and returned to the capital. He will only become more powerful in the future. If the military commander can't make friends with him, he will settle his suspicions. I'm afraid the road ahead will be very difficult." Difficult to go."
Li Ke twitched with the corners of his eyes, and was very angry, but it was true.
After a long time, he sighed and said distressedly: "Li Ye has made it clear that he is going to fight against this commander to the end. Even if this commander is willing to curry favor with him, he will still stick his hot face to his cold ass. What's the use of it other than humiliating himself?"
What he said was extremely aggrieved.
"If that's the case, the poor monk can relieve the commander's worries." Huiming said calmly.
Li Keyong's eyes brightened: "What trick does the master have?"
Huiming said indifferently: "Naturally, it is to make allies who have a common enemy."
Li Ke was taken aback: "It's all over, who else would make trouble with King An?"
Huiming said: "Tian Lingzi has sent an envoy here, he intends to support the military commander and compete with His Royal Highness King An."
The banquet at Prince An's Mansion lasted until late at night, and the four of them talked happily. No matter what happened before, they are like close friends at this moment, and they have a hearty drink. Fortunately, everyone's cultivation base is not low, so there is no need to worry about getting drunk soon.
In the end, Wang Jian and Li Maozhen stood up, clasped their fists to Li Ye and said, "Thank you, King An, for your hospitality. It's getting late, I'll take my leave first."
Li Ye nodded, it's not that he can't stay the other party in Prince An's Mansion for the night, but Li Maozhen has said before that they will return to Fengxiang tomorrow, so they will return to the barracks tonight. The two of them came back to Chang'an to pay a special visit to Li Ye.
Li Ye felt a little strange walking in such a hurry, but the other party didn't want to say more, and he didn't ask more.
It's not like Li Ye didn't think about taking advantage of this opportunity to kill Zhu Wen, Wang Jian, and Li Maozhen.
After all, he has memories before time travel, and he clearly knows that the Tang Dynasty's country is falling apart in the hands of these people, and with his current cultivation base of the real world, it is easy to kill them.
However, in troubled times, if Zhu Wen was killed, Zhang Wen and Li Wen were killed, Wang Jian was killed, Zhang Jian and Li Jian were killed, and the princes were able to separate one side because of the current situation, and the problem could not be solved by killing a few people.
"One last drink."
I don't know who it is, but I made a suggestion.
So the four raised their glasses at the same time.
The wine glass was raised in the air, but suddenly froze, as if no one had thought of a toast, and this last glass of wine needs some toasts anyway.
"Why don't you respect this world of great controversy and this time of drinking?"
Li Maozhen said suddenly.
"Okay! To this world of great controversy, to this time of drinking!"
The four looked at each other and laughed, and drank the last glass of wine related to friendship.
These words are actually very strange. As a minister of the Tang Dynasty, how can he say that the world of the Tang Dynasty is a world of great struggle
...
On that day, Zhu Wen, Wang Jian, and Li Maozhen left Prince An's Mansion one after another.
The next day, Li Maozhen and Wang Jian set off for Fengxiang.
After arriving in Fengxiang, they went straight to see Li Changyan, the governor of Fengxiang. This is Li Changyan's military order.
Li Changyan was already waiting in the study.
Wang Jian and Li Maozhen came to the house to meet after receiving the sabers.
"The two of you have made great contributions to me, Fengxiang. I am very pleased. You don't need to be polite, and you are all seated." Li Changyan smiled kindly, helped Wang Jian and Li Maozhen, and sat down at the main seat.
As soon as he was seated, the smile on Li Changyan's face faded away, replaced by a serious one. He looked at Wang Jian and Li Maozhen with piercing eyes, and said slowly, "This commander hastened to summon the two generals back. The two generals know the reason. ?”
Wang Jian and Li Maozhen looked at each other and said in unison: "Please tell the commander."
Li Changyan's eyes were deep, as if he was hiding countless swords, staring at Wang Jian and Li Maozhen: "Your Majesty's car will arrive in Fengxiang soon!"
When Li Yan returned to Chang'an from the middle of Shu, he must take Fengxiang.
When Wang Jian and Li Maozhen saw Li Changyan's eyes, they suddenly seemed to understand something, and their expressions immediately became terrified.
"This is Fengxiang's opportunity, this commander's opportunity, and the two generals' opportunity."
Li Changyan didn't say anything clearly, but when it came to this point, it was no different from what he said clearly. He stared closely at Wang Jian and Li Maozhen, as if they would violently kill people if they didn't agree with each other. "This commander always treats the two generals It’s not bad, we are subordinates in front of others, but we are like brothers in private, are the two generals willing to help me achieve great things?”
Wang Jian and Li Maozhen got up together and bowed in the house: "I will swear to be loyal to the commander-in-chief, and I will go through fire and water, and I will die!"
"Okay!" Li Changyan hit the knot hard, stood up, helped the two of them up, his face was full of relief and excitement, "With the help of two generals, why not worry about a major event?"
When Wang Jian and Li Maozhen walked out of Jiedu Ambassador's Mansion, their palms were already cold.
And around the house where Li Changyan met them, there were hundreds of armored soldiers and dozens of masters hidden. It was not until Wang Jian and Li Maozhen left that Li Changyan let these people retreat.
If Wang Jian and Li Maozhen had not agreed to assist him, then they would be two dead bodies now.
...
Chang'an, Prince An's Mansion.
Li Ye sat silently behind the desk, while Song Jiao stood in the hall, her eyes sharp and murderous, "Wang Jian and Li Maozhen went to see Li Changyan directly after they returned to Fengxiang. Turn around outside the city and head southwest. Isn't it obvious what Li Changyan wants to do?"
Li Ye tapped his fingers on the table with a gloomy expression: "Li Changyan wants to hijack His Majesty and force the Son of Heaven to order the princes? The world is in chaos now. Although Huang Chao is dead, rebels are springing up like mushrooms from all over the world. At this moment, Li Changyan It's not unusual to have this idea, but the Shence Army has 100,000 soldiers, so he dares to do this?"
Song Jiaodao: "Fengxiang is Li Changyan's territory. He hides an ambush, pretends to greet His Majesty, and then makes a sudden attack. Even if His Majesty is guarded by the Shence Army, it is impossible to be surrounded by 100,000 people after all. The possibility of Li Changyan's success is very high." Big. Besides, the Shence Army says there are 100,000 soldiers, but nine out of ten are recruits, how can they compare with Fengxiang's elite soldiers?"
Li Ye nodded and pondered again.
Song Jiaohan said in a low voice: "Once your Majesty is held hostage, Li Changyan will be the first to deal with you, because you are a child of the clan and even the prince of the dynasty. If you are not eradicated, Li Changyan will not be able to sleep. With Li Keyong staring at him, the Pinglu army is not in a safe situation."
"Besides, the world is in chaos, and everyone wants to achieve great things. Those ambitious Jiedu envoys, the first obstacle to be cleared away is probably you. In the eyes of everyone, you are not only Li Yan's brother, but also his brother. The most trusted minister is the pillar of the Tang Dynasty, only when you fall, will everyone have a chance!"
Li Ye smiled helplessly. What he had always thought of was to wait until the world was in chaos and the Tang Dynasty was destroyed, to take advantage of the situation, compete in the world, aspire to the Central Plains, achieve the emperor's career, and ascend to immortality with the body of a real dragon. It would not be an exaggeration to say that he is a speculator. Now he has become a loyal minister of the Tang Dynasty in the eyes of the world
The general situation in this world is really like a torrent, pushing people forward, and people don't know where they will go.
However, Li Ye is decisive, and now is not the time to hesitate, because Li Yan is about to arrive at Fengxiang, and he said to the guard outside the door: "Let Shangguan Qingcheng come to see me."
"yes!"
Song Jiao was stunned, and her beautiful eyes were full of doubts: "Aren't you going to pass the news to His Majesty? As long as His Majesty gets the news, even if the Shence Army is useless, after all, there are 100,000 soldiers by your side, Li Changyan will not Will it succeed?"
Li Ye looked at Song Jiao, his gaze was like an abyss, he said slowly: "And then?"
"What then?"
"If you don't enter Fengxiang, you can't return to Chang'an, so you can only go back to Chengdu. In other words, the Fengxiang Army did not attack the Shence Army, and Li Changyan did not hold His Majesty hostage, but His Majesty returned to Chengdu because of my words." .What will happen next, have you thought about it?" Li Ye asked carefully.

Song Jiao couldn't help but follow Li Ye's train of thought: "Fengxiang Army didn't move, Li Changyan didn't reveal his ulterior motives, so naturally he didn't have any ulterior motives. You made up the reason for Fengxiang Army's rebellion and let His Majesty return to Chengdu, but you controlled Chang'an City... "
Speaking of this, Song Jiao opened her mouth wide: "You occupy Chang'an, with the Pinglu army at your side, as stable as Mount Tai, with the great achievements of breaking Tongguan, killing Huangchao, and restoring Chang'an. ... You are a descendant of Li Tang's clan, don't tell me you want to ... establish yourself as emperor?!"
Li Ye sneered: "The struggle for the throne in Li Tang has always been bloody. During the Anshi Rebellion, Xuanzong went to Chengdu, and the prince went to Lingzhou. When Xuanzong was still alive, the prince declared himself emperor and claimed to inherit the throne. It's for Suzong. Even Xuanzong in Chengdu, in order to calm down the chaos, had to admit it with a pinch of his nose."
"Now Huang Chao has been killed, but the rebel army has not disappeared. They are still besieging Chenzhou and causing disaster in the Central Plains. I am also a son of the clan, and I have Li Tang's blood. In the name of chaos, under the pretext of unruly people in the feudal town, let His Majesty stay in Chengdu, and with the support of a hundred thousand Pinglu army, it is not inconceivable to be the regent and supervisor of the country, or to establish himself as emperor!"
Song Jiao's beautiful face was instantly pale, without the slightest trace of blood, she covered her mouth, so she didn't exclaim out loud.
