Chapter nine hundred and eighty second: in the middle

Yan Si didn't expect that the place where Gongsun Changming summoned him was actually at home.

This is a bit flattered.

Gongsun Changming has a special status among the inner guards. Although he does not hold any position among the inner guards, he can directly command and order any level of inner guard personnel.

Some people even say that Gongsun Changming is the real commander of the inner guard.

Mrs. Gongsun, who was strong and had a very large butt, served the last dish and a pot of warm wine. She gently closed the door and left the room. Yan Si was still a little nervous.

"How does it feel when I come back this time?"

"It's very different from the past!" Yan Si told the truth: "I just feel that my energy has gone up to a higher level."

"What do you think is the reason?"

"Since his humble post, it was because of the destruction of Zhang Zhongwu in Liaodong, and the last threat in the north was completely eliminated. It was probably because Li Xiang was about to have a good thing!" Yan Si said with a smile.

Gongsun Changming laughed: "Well, come on, let's have a drink for the prosperity of Wuyi."

With a "ding" sound, the cups in their hands gently touched and drank them all.

"Speaking of this, both of us are really watching how Wuyi went from a small county town to the largest city in the north today, to the political, cultural and economic center of the entire Tang Dynasty." Gongsun Changming sighed and said with emotion: "Do you still remember what Wuyi looked like back then?"

"There are still some reflections!" Yan Si nodded and said, "It seems that there is only one straight street, and it will take less than half an hour to walk from beginning to end."

"Now, you can ride on a horse and it's rare to run Wuyi to Luo in one day!" Gongsun Changming grabbed a black piece of stuff in front of Yan Si: "Come and try it, this is a real good thing, sent back from Liaodong."

"What is this?" Yan Si was a little confused when he looked at this thing that was not astonishingly beautiful.

"Trust!" Gongsun Changming said: "Have you heard of it? Most people will definitely not be able to afford this thing. In fact, it is me. If someone didn't give it to me and asked me to buy it myself, I would never have bought it."

Yan Si was a little uneasy.

People in their career have extremely keen minds.

He ate this precious ingredient carefully, but he didn't ask much. What he deserved to know, Gongsun Changming would always let him know, and what he shouldn't know, don't even think about it, let alone ask.

"So, Xianglan has decided to take action?" Gongsun Changming asked slowly while savoring the wine.

"Yes!" Putting down the chopsticks, Yan Si said: "Xiang Qi asked for 50,000 silver dollars this time, on the condition that he handed over the deployment status of all their people in Zhenzhou."

"Do you think you should pay this money?" Gongsun Changming asked with a smile.

"We are clear about most of Xiang's arrangements. But we are not afraid of ten thousand in such matters, but only in case. So Bei Zhi believes that from the perspective of Li Xiang's safety, the 50,000 silver dollars should be paid, not to mention that if we want to get it back in the future, it will not be difficult!" Yan Si smiled.

Gongsun Changming smiled: "If you give it, you give it. You don't care about this little money. You're right. If you pay a little more, you may be more sure."

"The Zhenzhou Inner Guards can't afford so much money!"

"Don't worry, the headquarters will be allocated to you next." Gongsun Changming said.

"Then it's unusual that Jiang Guo left Zhenzhou at this moment! His subordinates privately believed that they should have other plans besides assassinating Li Xiang." Yan Si said. "And these two lines do not seem to be intertwined, at least Xiang Qi is completely unaware of the situation in this regard."

Gongsun Changming held a pig's ear and put it in his mouth while chewing it, laughing: "Jiang Guo was dressed up and ran to Wuyi, indeed planning another thing. They were going to get the little emperor away!"

Yan Si was surprised: "How can this be done?"

"Of course this is OK!" Gongsun Changming smiled and said, "It's exactly what we want."

Yan Si stared at Gongsun Changming for a while before saying, "Sir, please forgive me for being ignorant and can't figure out the joints here."

Gongsun Changming said: "What we already know now is that Xiang Lan wants to murder the old emperor and let the old emperor's death seduce Li Xiang back to Wuyi and return to Zhenzhou, right?"

"yes!"

"At that time, there will inevitably be a major event that shocked the world in Zhenzhou." Gongsun Changming said: "When the old emperor dies, we need to give someone an explanation! Otherwise, why would you not die sooner or later die, and die at this time? How can you clear away this matter was done by Li Xiang?"

"It was not Li Xiang who did it!" Yan Si said.

"That's your opinion, and people in the world may not necessarily have this view!" Gongsun Changming said: "Even in the north, those people who sincerely support Li Xiang think that Li Xiang did these things, even if they don't say them, they may not have no ideas in their hearts. So we must do things more perfectly. Such things that win people's hearts will naturally spare no effort to fight for, so that people in the world think that if Li Xiang does not serve as the emperor, it will be simply inconsistent with the law of nature."

"What does this have to do with letting the little emperor run away?" Yan Si still didn't understand.

"The old emperor died, and Li Xiang was encountered a carefully planned assassination, but the little emperor ran away and ran to the south to erect the flag to Luo!" A cold light flashed in Gongsun Changming's eyes: "Think about it, is it easy for the activities here to make a big deal?"

Yan Si's eyes flashed, and after a while, he suddenly realized, "I understand. We can tell the world that in order to assassinate Li Xiang, the little emperor colluded with Xiang Lan and conspired to murder his biological father. However, in the end, Li Xiangfu was very lucky and escaped the assassination by chance."

Gongsun Changming said: "That's it. So a year ago, when Xiang Lan was clamoring for the guards in the palace, we pretended to be reluctant, but we still had to hand it over to her. At the same time, we transferred a series of key figures such as Li Mi to prepare for this matter."

"It turns out that transferring Li Shaoqing and others was also paving the way for this matter!" Yan Si said with emotion: "I remember that my subordinates had submitted documents at that time and opposed this matter. Now it seems that I have a shallow understanding."

"It's not that you have a shallow understanding, but that you can only know so much at that time!" Gongsun Changming smiled. "Now you should understand that a living and running young emperor is more suitable for us. If he doesn't run away and stays in Wuyi, we really don't know what to do with him? Or kill him? It's not suitable! It's a bit difficult to put the death of the old emperor on his head! Wouldn't he be solved by all this when he runs away!"

Yan Si nodded repeatedly: "Mr. Gongsun, but if the little emperor ran to the south, there would be a flag in the south. The southern power is not small now. They are entangled together and there is a lot of trouble!"

"Compared to completely making the reputation of the little emperor, these troubles are not troubles!" Gongsun Changming said: "Do you think the south can really compete with us in terms of force? We worked hard to get the emperor from Chang'an to Wuyi, and now their mission has been completely over, but it is easy to send the gods to the gods. We took this opportunity to send this plague god away cleanly and completely clear the last obstacle to Li Xiang ascending the throne. Hehe, how much appeal and influence can a little emperor who murdered the Supreme Emperor of the Tang Dynasty and assassinated the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty? Even if there is, it can only be used by those with ulterior motives, and these people are what we want to eliminate. What we need is the hearts of those at the grassroots level."

"I understand, I understand." Yan Si nodded.

"Do you know why I invited you to have this meal at home today?" Gongsun Changming poured a glass of wine for Yan Si and looked at him with a smile.

Yan Si's heart was shocked.

"You have participated in this matter from beginning to end. You are one of the few people among the inner guards who know the truth. You should know that although there are many people involved in this matter, few people who really know the inside story." Gongsun Changming said.

Yan Si's face suddenly turned pale, his hands trembled. After a while, he took the wine in front of him and drank it all in one go.

"I understand. After this incident, I lost my skills. Li Xiang was assassinated in Zhenzhou, and I became the commander of the inner guard of Zhenzhou. Naturally, I took the greatest responsibility for this. Even if I was sent to the execution ground, I would not speak out even if I was sent to the execution ground." Yan Si said with a sigh.

Gongsun Changming looked at the other party for a while, nodded slowly and said, "Yes, you are indeed loyal to Li Xiang."

"I only ask the court to treat my wife and children well!" Yan Si lowered his head and said in a trembling voice.

"You're thinking too much!" Gongsun Changming poured him another glass of wine and said, "If I really kill someone like you, Li Xiang must deal with me when he turns around. Don't worry, Yan Si will take responsibility for this and be executed for some of the time, because he has to do a complete set of acting and can't make people sick. But you won't die. Congratulations!"

Yan Si was puzzled, how could he say congratulations?

"Yan Si is dead, but Li Si will be reborn." Gongsun Changming said.

"Li Si?" Yan Si's body trembled and was given the surname Li. This is the ultimate goal of everyone in the secret camp, but so far, few people have achieved this goal.

Is this done?

"After this matter, you, Li Si, will be transferred to Yingzhou and serve as the commander of Yingzhou's inner guard!" Gongsun Changming said: "Xinfu from Liaodong, because of the special circumstances there, bandits will inevitably be the most serious problem. We need an experienced person to coordinate the command. But are you willing to go from the wealthy Zhenzhou to the bitter and cold Yingzhou?"

"I am willing to do it!" Yan Si said loudly. When he learned that he would be given the surname Li, he was excited for a moment. Not to mention going to Yingzhou, what if he went to Goryeo?
