"I think that no matter how Nanzhao suppresses and pacification, there is no hurry to do so. Don't expect to achieve his contribution in one battle. When Zhuge Kongming pacified the Southern Barbarians, he still needed to capture and seven columns. Now, no one can match Zhuge Kongming's lieutenant generals. The soldiers in the army may not have the Shu army adapted to the Jiannan climate. Therefore, we should choose strong soldiers in Shu, recruit 30,000 to 50,000 people, train for two years, and then talk about pacification."

Ye Chang knew that no one would be happy about the plan he had made.

Li Longji was not happy. Now he is so happy that he is used to going from one victory to another. Since Nanzhao rebelled, he hopes that the result will be achieved as soon as possible. Li Linfu is not happy. This method is indeed a good and wonderful plan, but Li Linfu hopes to see Yang Zhao’s defeat in Jiannan, and it is best to even lose his life in Nanzhao. Yang Zhao is even more unhappy. What he hopes is that Ye Chang pleads with Li Linfu and lets him stay in Chang'an.

But Ye Chang could only say that compared to the three present, he still had a lower limit. He couldn't bear to have tens of thousands of Tang soldiers and tens of millions of Tang wealth. Because of the three of them's intrigue, they became the bones and blood in the mountains and forests of Yunnan.

"Shiyilang was aggressive when he was in Liaodong, but he became cautious in Jiannan." Li Longji said lightly: "I understand... Yang Qing, it seems that you have to go out this time. Since Nanzhao rebelled and Jiannan was shocked, I also need a trusted minister to calm the hearts of the people. I will draw elite troops for you. Nanzhao is small and weak. I think it is enough to eliminate the people's troops and horses of the Jiannan Jiedushi, and to allocate you 100,000 troops, which is enough to control it."

Li Longji clearly expressed his intention to wipe out Nanzhao, and he made up his mind to let Yang Zhao go. He also had his own plans. He intended to support Yang Zhao to replace Li Linfu, and Yang Zhao did do a good job compared to the previous candidates. However, in terms of achievements and qualifications, Yang Zhao was missing some. Now he has mobilized the whole country to help him make contributions in Jiannan, so when he returns to the court, it would be natural to replace Li Linfu.

As for Li Linfu's detriment in the court, Yang Zhao was unable to succeed - after all, it was him, Li Longji, and he could be careless in some things, but he would never be careless in some things.

Li Linfu also knew Li Longji's plan, but he sneered in his heart. As long as Yang Zhao was driven out of Chang'an, countless people would stare at Yang Zhao's position. At that time, Yang Zhao was not going to deal with him. What was the use of Li Longji staring at him? Too many people who wanted to replace Yang Zhao would eat him until he didn't even have any bones left.

Ye Chang was a little anxious: "You should be careful about this matter. The difficulty of Shu Road is far better than other places. It is even more difficult to enter Nanzhao. It is better to slow down the map than to hurry..."

Before he finished speaking, Yang Zhao suddenly spoke, "The saint appointed his minister as the governor of Jiannan. He was responsible for the sage and had to work hard to bear it... However, his strength is limited and he needs help. Please use Ye Chang as the ambassador of the camp and the ministers entered Sichuan."

Ye Chang's next words were blocked in his throat, his mouth was so open that he was full of shock.

Gao Lishi next to him clenched his fist secretly: Sure enough, even if Yang Zhao is not Li Linfu's opponent, he is much better than the previous few.

Li Longji was also a little surprised when he heard Yang Zhao's suggestion. He looked at Ye Chang and then looked at Li Linfu. Li Linfu's face was gloomy and seemed to want to object, but Ye Chang's expression was shocked, but he was not prepared.

Yang Zhao's proposal was second to want Ye Chang to help him. His real purpose was probably to pull Ye Chang to share the responsibility. Since Li Linfu regarded Ye Chang as his son-in-law, after Ye Chang arrived in Jiannan, Li Linfu not only could not do anything bad behind his back, but also had to cooperate with him with all his strength, otherwise Ye Chang would be Yang Zhao's scapegoat.

However, Yang Zhao made this proposal, which meant that he completely pushed Ye Chang to Li Linfu's side.

After Ye Chang reacted, he looked at Yang Zhao deeply, but Yang Zhao didn't look at him.

Li Longji thought about it. Although he was silent now, everyone's attitude almost showed that Ye Chang was in a dilemma. He was unwilling to go, but he was not easy to object. Yang Zhao wanted to pull him into the water regardless of everything, even if he threw all the friendship between the two for seven or eight years in. Li Linfu tried his best to throw Ye Chang out and even deal with Yang Zhao and complete this Duizi.

So what exactly is going to do best for him?

After thinking for a long time, Li Longji said: "Since that is the case, he appointed Yang Zhao as the governor of Jiannan, Ye Chang as the governor of Lingnan, the governor of Yaozhou, the defense envoy of Jiannan Road, and the field envoy of the field - Shiyilang. Do you still remember your strategy for managing the border a few years ago? I promise you to let it go in Nanzhao. What else do you need?"

If there is no last sentence, there is room for negotiation, but if the last sentence "What else do you need" is said, the implication is that Ye Chang must go.

Ye Chang never expected that things would change like this. Li Linfu next to him looked even more gloomy, but he still did not express his objection.

"how?"

"minister……"

Ye Chang pondered for a while, then raised his head, his eyes shining.

Everyone thought that he would suffer a big loss, and that it would be thankless to be dragged to Jiannan by Yang Zhao this time, and it might even become Yang Zhao's scapegoat. Even Li Linfu, when facing Yang Zhao's threat, also intended to regard him as Duizi.

Then I will shock everyone

"I am willing to be the sword defense envoy, the ambassador of the camp, the pioneer, and the minister Yang only needs to be in charge of Chengdu. I will take responsibility for Nanzhao's affairs with all my strength," Ye Chang said.

"Well……"

Ye Chang was not angry when he was used, but was tormented by others. How could he not be angry? After making the decision, he put forward his own conditions without hesitation, that is, let Yang Zhao, who does not understand military affairs and has no military strategy, stay in Chengdu honestly and not go to the battles he had on the front line.

This requirement means that if he made contributions on the front line, Yang Zhao would not be able to make any contributions. If he was defeated, Yang Zhao would not bear any responsibility. Li Longji was still a little hesitant. He trusted Ye Chang's ability very much, and felt that if Ye Chang could succeed, Yang Zhao would be able to return to Chang'an to be prime minister. However, Yang Zhao was happy after hearing this. Without waiting for Li Longji to speak, he said, "That's right, I don't know the military affairs, Ye Shiyi is familiar with military strategies, so he should be so arbitrary."

He was not very enthusiastic about Bian Gong. As long as he flattered Li Longji and had Yang Yuhuan help him, why worry about not being promoted?

After Yang Zhao said this, Li Longji could only allow him to agree. Li Linfu squinted his eyes and thought about it, but there was no objection. Seeing this, Ye Chang further mentioned: "The saints have transferred many troops, but I don't know where to transfer them. In addition, the duties of Liaodong..."

"The Liaodong vocational department will naturally not move. It won't take too long for you to go to Jiannan." Li Longji heard Ye Chang happily and took the hot potato, so he was naturally not stingy: "What else do you have to ask for? Just say it."

"Can I mobilize officials from Jiannan states?"

"That's natural, the authority that the governor of Jiannan should have." Li Longji said this and immediately understood what Ye Chang meant. He glanced at Yang Zhao: "Yang Qing, you must be convenient for Ye Qing in this matter."

"That's natural, I will not be restrained. Who will Brother Ye want to transfer? I will cooperate with you with all my strength."

What Yang Zhao was most afraid of was that Li Linfu was taking advantage of his time in Jiannan and pulling Ye Chang into the water, and finally wanted to ease the relationship between the two, so he almost agreed with Ye Chang.

"Uh, there is a last point... The Anton Chamber of Commerce is willing to help military salaries, and only asks the saints to allow the Anton Chamber of Commerce to set up a cabinet in Chengdu. The Anton Chamber of Commerce can choose a few items in Nanzhao for specializing in the specialization."

Chengdu is also a big city in the world at this time. Ye Chang wanted to extend his trade route here very early. Controlling Chengdu, one could have a new commodity market, two could control the ancient Tea-Horse Road, and three to the southwest, which is the country of Tianfu. Although the top leaders of the Tang Dynasty did not look at it at this time and thought it was a wild and malaria land, Ye Chang knew what it had here.

Those mineral deposits and the like are not easy to transport due to transportation, but there are things that are easy to transport.

Therefore, the Andong Chamber of Commerce set up a cabinet shop in Chengdu, which will become a new way for the Chamber of Commerce to make money.

This is a trivial matter, and Li Longji naturally would not refuse, and said with a smile: "Ye Qing, you are in the eye of money."

"I am not as rich as a saint, but I am carrying a lot of debts and don't think of ways to make money. The noble ladies in the capital are afraid that they will all go to my family to collect debts."

"Who makes you restless? You borrow money every year?" Li Longji couldn't help but complain: "If you can be more stable and not in a hurry to spend money, with your ability to make money, even I may not be as comfortable as you."

"That's right, in recent years, Wang Yuanbao has almost lost all his money in order to find the Aolai Country. Now he has moved from Chang'an to Dengzhou. It is said that he is looking east from the sea every day... Only Brother Ye, you, can find the Aolai Country from the waves of thousands of turbulent waves." Yang Zhao interrupted.

Ye Chang understood what he meant behind him.

In fact, the navigation technique of the Tang Dynasty has developed rapidly in recent years. Ye Chang tried every means to prevent the leakage of some secrets. Therefore, Wang Yuanbao also built several batches of sea ships in his hands. He recruited watermen and began to look for the so-called Aolai Kingdom according to the news that Ye Chang intended to leak. It is conceivable that Wang Yuanbao is worthy of being a person with great reputation in the Tang Dynasty shopping mall. Even though his main business, the glazed industry, has fallen in the competition, but with the market and transformation, and the continuous recruitment of people to invest, he still supports it.

Now for Wang Yuanbao and the people behind him, because of his previous investment, he must continue to invest. Therefore, it is said that Wang Yuanbao also found a Persian hydraulic worker who was skilled in navigation and started a new journey last winter.

"If Wang Yuanbao made money, he would just cast a golden ball and hide it in his own cellar. But if he made money, he would let the money flow..."

"I have read the "The Wealth of the Kingdom" and it is really a wonderful article." Li Longji laughed out loud and interrupted Ye Chang's words.

In the past two years, Ye Chang's book "The Wealth of the Kingdom" was published throughout the world, and its influence was so great that he praised Sima Qian's "Biography of Merchants" as the true meaning of "Shangshu". Because "Shangshu Hongfan" directly said "Eight Politics, one is goods, and the other is breeding", he also mocked Ban Gu who wrote "Han Shu", saying that he was a corrupt scholar who was not transformed and did not grow, so he could not support his family, which caused his younger brother Ban Chao to make a living for the swordsman. Of course, the purpose of this opening was to cause controversy, just as hype could attract attention in the future. When Ye Chang said this, no matter whether others supported or opposed it, he wanted to take a closer look at his reasons.

Moreover, Ye Chang is now vaguely known as the best financial expert in the world, so he wrote books and said that many people want to see the truth behind his ability to make money. Therefore, after the publication of "The Wealth of Nations", let alone Luoyang, the entire Central Plains was expensive. Originally, Ye Chang's book priced at fifty cents was actually raised to a price of 500 s per book. Even so, there is still a price but no market.

It was not until Ye Chang added another batch that the market stabilized. This book sold more than 80,000 copies in two years. For the Tang Dynasty, which had a population of only 80 million, it was equivalent to having one in every thousand people.

If it were the past, it would be impossible, but Ye Chang's reputation as the God of Wealth spread all over the world, so this effect was achieved. Of course, even though he had the book, he could see some truth from it, which was the practice of everyone.

Li Longji joked about Ye Chang's "The Wealth of Nations". Ye Chang couldn't help but smile, only Li Linfu next to him had a cold look, as if he was still unhappy.

"Li Qing, do you think this is possible?" Li Longji asked again.

"It's impossible...but the daughter of an old minister has been waiting for two years. Ye Chang is now older. He goes to the battlefield for the country, and no one is left at home... The saint said that he wanted to give a marriage, so he asked the saint to issue an order."

Li Longji's heart suddenly jumped. Li Linfu proposed Ye Chang's marriage at this time. It seemed irrelevant, but in fact the timing was very accurate. He originally had other plans for Ye Chang's marriage, but now it seems...

"Since that's the case, Ye Qing, I'll allow you to leave after 40 days of marriage." Li Longji narrowed his eyes and thought for a while, and spoke slowly.

"Yes." Ye Chang did not refuse.

He knew that doing this might be a bit sorry for Shou'an, but firstly, he and Li Tengkong also had feelings for each other, and secondly, the current situation could not allow him to drag down any further.

"Since I gave the marriage, I can't let Li Qing's betray her beloved daughter. Although the time is a little hurry, I should still have time to marry with the princess's ceremony." Li Longji said again.

Since Yang Zhao cannot replace Li Linfu for the time being, he must appease the old minister. Even Shou'an's happiness can be sacrificed, so what's wrong with giving Li Linfu some vanity.

Li Linfu was indeed grateful and thanked him. But the two of them sneered almost at the same time.

"Li Qing asked the Ministry of War to pay more attention to the mobilization of troops. Since this matter has been agreed, then... you should step down first." Li Longji said again.

He also lost the desire to play at this time, but felt deeply tired. The boss of an empire, there were always endless political affairs to deal with. He is nearly 70 years old and has long been ineffective.

Perhaps…it would be better to pass the throne to young people?
