"Xi'er, I really didn't expect that our army captured Luoyang so quickly. This king... I'm really happy," Li Bin looked at Yang Xi with a smile on his face, "I really didn't expect that Xi'er, you are so young, you can't behave so well."
He's so outstanding, I really don't know how happy I am to be a father. With people like you helping me, what else should I worry about as a father? If Jean finally takes charge of the world, the people of the world will definitely be very happy."
Li Bin, who has fully appreciated Yang Xi's abilities, no longer conceals his purpose and becomes more and more intimate with Yang Xi. He hopes that his proactive show of kindness will eventually earn Yang Xi's full support!
However, Yang Xi was unmoved. After listening to Li Bin's bewitching words, he replied calmly: "Your Highness, the war has not completely subsided and the rebel forces have not been completely wiped out. The most important thing now is
What I want to do is to control the situation, appease the people, and eliminate the last remaining forces of the rebels. Please don’t think about other things for the time being. Walls have ears, so don’t talk about many things casually.”
Yang Xi didn't feel angry when he said these words. He felt that what Li Bin said was too direct and that the relationship with him was completely an exchange of interests. Although he was a little tempted, he still didn't dare to take it seriously.
This matter is too important, and the difficulty is almost the same as climbing to the sky. Don't think too much about it now, and don't discuss it too much. Luoyang has just been captured. The most important thing is to restore order in Luoyang and don't cause chaos, otherwise the credit will be greatly reduced.
.
Hearing what Yang Xi said, Li Bin was slightly disappointed, but after thinking about it, he immediately felt relieved and continued to say lovingly: "Xi'er, what do you think you should do next as a father? What things must be done now?
What to do? My father has no experience in this area, but I can't refuse, so I can only bite the bullet and take charge. I hope you can give me more advice."
Yang Xi looked at Li Bin and saw the sincerity on his face. He also smiled and replied: "Your Highness, your contribution is great enough. After the war is over, you can return to the court in triumph. The court will definitely do anything else."
Others will handle it, we just need to wait for His Majesty’s edict! The most important thing now is not to let
There was a rebellion in Luoyang City. Repair the city fortifications and facilities in the imperial city that were damaged by the war. Continue to send troops to suppress the rebellion and completely quell the remnants of the rebels. This is what His Highness just arranged. Your Highness has done a good job.
Well, I don’t have much experience in this area, so I can’t provide more suggestions.”
Hearing that Yang Xi really gave him advice and confirmed his arrangement just now, Li Bin was even more happy. He couldn't help but reached out and patted Yang Xi on the shoulder. Then he said: "Xi'er, I'm very happy that you can help me.
After returning to the court this time, I will also make a strong request in front of my father. I want my father to promote you to the rank of title.
, you have already made such great achievements. Without you, the rebellion would not have been quelled so quickly. You should have a higher position, and you should be crowned king. I will vigorously ask my father to make you king. At least.
I also need to make you a prince or something, otherwise it will chill the hearts of the soldiers."
"Your Highness is joking. The general is still young and does not dare to be greedy for so much. Please also ask Your Highness not to say such unrealistic things. Everything should focus on the overall situation! Prince Heng certainly does not want to see His Highness make such a decision.
Great job. Maybe after His Highness returns to Beijing, the Crown Prince will take the opportunity to do something. If His Highness returns to Beijing, he will have to do something in front of His Majesty.
Asking for these unrealistic things for the general may make His Majesty annoyed!" To be honest, Yang Xi was a little touched by Li Bin's expression of closeness, but he also knew that the more Li Bin acted like this, the more utilitarian his purpose was.
The stronger he becomes, he cannot be fooled by mirage-like phantoms and must always keep a clear head, so as not to steal the chicken but lose the rice.
He also didn't want Li Bin to be so impatient and express this meaning repeatedly in his words, then he would be afraid.
He doesn't mind that Li Bin is incompetent. If he really wants to be the emperor, he would prefer that Li Bin be incapable and have no means, so that his goal can be easily achieved. Just like Ruizhong Li Dan, who can't bear the pressure, he also feels that
He was not made to be the emperor, so he eventually handed over the throne to his son Li Longji. But he did not want to see Li Bin act in a hurry and make things worse.
Hearing what Yang Xi said, Li Bin was shocked and a little bit woke up. After thinking for a moment, he nodded immediately: "Xi'er, you are right. The most important thing now is to let the father dethrone Li Heng's crown prince.
And asked my father to succeed him as the crown prince. Only I became the crown prince.
, the things just mentioned can be realized. Don’t worry, my father will keep a low profile. After returning to Luoyang, he will work hard to make this happen. I just hope that you can help me, my biological father, as long as my father finally becomes the emperor.
, in the end, the country of Datang will be yours."
Li Bin said, slapped Yang Xi hard on the shoulder, and then smiled happily.
"Your Highness King Yan, many things go in one ear and out the other, and you don't hear them at all!" Yang Xi said, and without waiting for the stunned Li Bin to react, he immediately made a salute: "Your Highness, you have worked hard all the way.
, let’s take a rest. The general will have to go around the city. The war has just stopped, and many things have to be dealt with by the general. It will not delay His Highness’s rest. If there is anything unresolved, the general will report to His Highness.
of."
After saying that, without waiting for Li Bin's response, he quickly walked out of the room, leaving Li Bin alone there in shock.
---------------
Because of the curfew, the situation in Luoyang was quickly brought under control.
Early the next morning, order in Luoyang City was restored, and the three major cities were opened one after another. However, there were no merchants or pedestrians, and it was very deserted. But everyone knows that in the following days, Luoyang City will return to its pre-war state.
It seems that Nan City, North City and West City will become lively again.
Before Guo Ziyi and Li Guangbi led their troops to leave the vicinity of Fan Yang and go south to attack Luoyang, Yan Zhenqing, Li Siye, Helan Jinming, Cheng Qianli, Zhang Xun and other troops headed south first. However, due to the resistance of the rebels along the way and the lack of horses, they
Their marching speed was much slower than that of Guo Ziyi and Li Guangbi's entire cavalry force. The battle in Luoyang was over, and they had not yet resisted Luoyang.
On the third day after Luoyang was captured, order in Luoyang City was completely restored. After all the corpses and everything else were cleared away, Yan Zhenqing's 15,000 men arrived in Luoyang first. I heard the sergeant came to report that Yan Zhenqing had arrived with his army.
After Luoyang, Yang Xi was so happy that he immediately dropped what he was doing and called Pang Zhong, Wang Sili, Gao Shi and other generals around him to greet him.
Now Yan Zhenqing's military exploits in the counter-insurgency campaign are not small, but this is not the main reason why Yang Xi respects him very much. It is worthy of him to welcome him in person because this is an important figure in the history of Chinese calligraphy.
