Inside the Jiankang Palace, under the worship of all the officials, Li Jiancheng finally ascended to the coveted throne.Although the day came a bit late, the end result was worth it.

What's even more ridiculous is that the original capital, Jiankang, has been breached by the Qi army, and it is dilapidated, and it is no longer possible to be the capital.

Li Jiancheng moved the capital from Jiankang to Yangxian, and changed Yangxian to Jiankang.

In fact, this is all a matter of deception.

Although the name is the same, the meaning is quite different.

But for Li Jiancheng, these are not important.

Today, he is the only emperor of the Tang Dynasty, the supreme Ninety-Five Supreme.No one can stop me, if anyone dares to stop me, I will cut him into pieces and tear him into ten thousand pieces.

"Your Majesty's ascension to the throne is a blessing for me in the Tang Dynasty. We need to tell the people all over the world to celebrate together." Cai Jing bowed and saluted. arrogance.

"What Cai Shangshu said even, I also think that we should celebrate with great fanfare now, to sweep away the decline of our Tang Dynasty." Qin Hui also stood up and agreed.

Coincidentally, when the Qi army attacked the city that day, although many honorable ministers from the court and China were kidnapped, these two were missed.

Right now, Pei Ji, Liu Wenjing and others were taken away, and the highest-ranking courtiers in the court unexpectedly fell on Cai Jing and Qin Hui.

Li Jiancheng had a good relationship with Cai Jing and Qin Hui before he ascended the throne.

In order to deal with Qin Wang Li Shimin, the two of them secretly knew a lot of tricks for him.

Now that they are enthroned by themselves, the two of them can be regarded as meritorious for supporting them. If they don't reward them heavily, wouldn't it be cold to the hearts of the heroes.

Thinking of this, Li Jiancheng said loudly: "When I first came to power, I wanted to stabilize the country. Qin Shangshu and Cai Shangshu played a role in protecting our Tang Dynasty when Jiankang fell. Today, Cai Jing is appointed as Shangshu Zuopushe, in charge of the Ministry of Officials. ; Add Qin Hui as the right servant of Shangshu, in charge of the Ministry of War; I hope that the two Qing families will continue to assist me and reorganize our Tang Dynasty."

Qin Hui and Cai Jing were even more delighted when they heard this.

The Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of War are the two most critical departments in the Southern Tang Dynasty today. Li Jiancheng is willing to hand over such important positions to them. It can be seen that in his eyes, Qin Hui and Cai Jing are models of loyal officials.

But he didn't know that under these two cheeks that looked like loyal ministers, there were two biggest cancers today.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, we are the ministers of the Great Tang Dynasty, and we will be the ghosts of the Great Tang Dynasty when we die."

The two thanked each other, and Li Jiancheng nodded in satisfaction and said, "Zhuqing wants to learn from the two ministers, Cai and Qin."

The remaining courtiers almost vomited out disgustingly, but since Li Jiancheng thought so, as courtiers, they naturally couldn't say anything wrong.

There was harmony in the hall, Qin Hui secretly played a trick on Cai Jing, Cai Jing understood, stood up and bowed and said: "Your Majesty ascended the throne, and the whole world celebrates. But His Royal Highness King Qin is still fighting abroad, and he has made great achievements. The minister believes that His Highness King Qin should be called back to Beijing to repay the throne. reward."

Cai Jing's words set off triple waves.

Although Qin Wang Li Shimin and Prince Li Jiancheng are brothers, they are also in the same situation.

It was originally a happy day, but everyone forgot that there was still a hidden danger in Datang.

But Cai Jing's words directly clarified everything, making everyone recall what happened.

"Your Majesty, I believe that His Royal Highness the King of Qin is guarding an important place and must not leave his post without authorization. As for the reward, you only need to send an envoy there." An official stood up and objected.

Cai Jing frowned immediately when he heard the words. As the leader of the courtiers, he was contradicted in public, and immediately said dissatisfied: "Master Chen's words are really disloyal, filial and unrighteous! Your Majesty and His Royal Highness King Qin are siblings. The emperor is enthroned, he won’t return to Beijing without saying anything, and he will hold a heavy army, what is he trying to do, want to rebel?”

A word of rebellion completely aroused Li Jiancheng's uneasiness.

Jingkou is only a few hundred miles away from Jiankang. If you rush at full speed, you can get there in at most two days.

Now Li Jiancheng has only a few remnants and defeated generals around him. If Li Shimin has his heart turned against him, as long as the tens of thousands of troops under his command come to attack, Jiankang will be defeated.

"What Cai Shangshu said is true. There are many talents in my Tang Dynasty. Is there only one His Royal Highness King Qin who can command the army? I am not talented. I would like to guard Jingkou for His Highness King Qin, and return to Beijing to meet His Majesty instead."

Li Jiancheng glanced at Qin Hui, feeling a little worried.

He didn't know Qin Hui's ability to command troops.

But Jingkou is the key to defending the capital, if there is a mistake, it will definitely not be a good thing for the throne under his ass.

"Qin Shangshu is really my loyal minister of the Tang Dynasty. I think this move is feasible. It only takes a few days to go back and forth from Jingkou to Jiankang. Within a few days, I expect that there will be no movement from the Qi army." Cai Jing strongly recommended Qin Hui. .

The two worked hand in hand and colluded with each other, and the only worry in Li Jiancheng's heart gradually relaxed.

Indeed, it only took a few days. Could it be that Jingkou, under the heavy guard of the Tang Dynasty, could not hold it for a few days?

"Okay, according to what the two ministers said, pass on my will, and Qin Hui, Minister of the Ministry of War, will temporarily guard Jingkou on behalf of His Royal Highness King Qin."

"I obey!" Qin Hui raised the corners of his mouth slightly, taking a reassurance that all the schemes will come to fruition.

Chapter 918

Jingkou, inside the Tang army camp.

After resisting the Qi army's attack for several days in a row, Tang Jun was suppressed out of breath.Today, the Qi army finally suspended their onslaught, giving them a rare moment of relaxation.

In the handsome tent, Li Shimin received two important guests.

One is Fang Tianding, the son of the deceased King Fang La of Yue, and the other is Zhugejin, the former Minister of Wu.

Although the Wu and Yue countries have become history, the two countries have separated Jiangdong for several years, and it is definitely not so easy to completely eradicate them.

Sun Yi, the king of Wu, was beheaded by Li Yuan that day. The left prime minister Zhang Zhao, the right prime minister Gu Yong, and the grand tutor Zhang Hong all died for their country.However, Shangshu ordered Zhugejin to escape to Kuaiji with a heart of revenge and some generals in the army.But unexpectedly, Li Shimin still found them now, and invited them all to Jingkou to discuss "big things."

Like them, when the Yue Kingdom was destroyed, Fang La knew that he had been caught in the tricks of the Qi Kingdom and could not return to heaven. He and his son Fang Jie did not regret the death, but the Fang clan must not perish just like this.Therefore, he handed over the throne of Yue to his son Fang Tianding, intending to restore him to the country.

In the past few years, Fang Tianding raised troops in Jiaozhou several times, but unfortunately they faced Li Shimin, they fought repeatedly and failed repeatedly, and finally sat in a trench.

Now, Datang is in crisis, Li Shimin has no choice but to turn to them for help.

But he didn't expect that these two guys would take advantage of the Tang Dynasty's crisis to continuously expand their troops.

"I, Li Shimin, can put aside the previous suspicions and help me Tang Dynasty in this crisis. I, Li Shimin, can't thank you enough! I will replace wine with tea, thank you both." Li Shimin picked up the tea on the table and said ready to drink.

"Slow!" Fang Tianding reached out his hand to stop him.

"His Royal Highness King Qin, we are not fools. Qi is at its peak. If we offend him for you, if there is no benefit, then it is not a loss-making business." Fang Tianding said, with the corners of his mouth slightly upturned.

Li Shimin frowned slightly, but right now they are asking for help from outside, and they must not offend these two guys.

Li Shimin tried his best to maintain a reserved posture, and asked with a smile: "Okay, you two might as well talk about the conditions."

Zhuge Jin said indifferently: "We also made a total calculation, the condition is very simple. If we retreat from Qi State, the land of Jiangdong will be shared equally among the three families."

"Equal split? Don't you two think this is the lion's mouth?" Li Shimin frowned slightly, furious.

"If His Royal Highness King Qin is not willing, there is no need to join hands with us." Fang Tianding said as he stood up and prepared to go out.

A murderous intent flashed in Li Shimin's eyes, he pondered for a moment and said, "Okay, then tell me how to distribute it?"
