Wei Zheng retorted: "Disrespecting the emperor, in the name of submitting but not in reality, isn't it a great crime to separate one side from the other?"

"It's ridiculous. According to what you said, what do you want people to do to truly surrender to the Tang Dynasty? Like Liang Luoren, kill the elder brother who has been entrenched for many years, and then take a small position in Chang'an by yourself? Completely dedicate your original territory ?” Bai Fan sneered.

"Bold! How dare you say such rebellious words?" Wei Zheng shouted angrily.

"How can Feng An be compared to Liang Luoren, the capital of Liang Shidu? Since he has surrendered and surrendered, and the court has generously named him Duke, he should show his sincerity. He will implement our decrees, and the supervisory officials we send will also do so." You have to accept it, otherwise, he alone has the final say on the appointment and promotion of any local officials. Isn't this considered self-reliance as a king?

In that case, what is his surrender?Fake surrender?Or is this used to trick Datang into not being able to afford weapons? "Changsun Wuji patiently rescued Bai Fan.

"No, how can you do that?

Lingnan Feng An, he has been entrenched in Lingnan since the Sui Dynasty was in chaos. If he wants to rebel, why not take advantage of the troubled times to become king?Since we know that the army of the Tang Dynasty will not be able to reach Lingnan, wouldn't it be more dignified to be called king or emperor than a duke?At the very least, people can justifiably control everything.

What is rebellion now?At most, it is a traitor, or a traitor that thousands of people refer to. Feng An, as the overlord of one party, would not be so unwise.

We always use our point of view to ask others. Don't you see that Feng An's surrender is different from others?

Others surrendered because of Datang's military power. It can be said that I, Datang let him go and recovered peacefully.

But Feng An is different, he has a large number of soldiers, and he voluntarily pledges his allegiance.Originally belonged to the former Sui courtiers, but also the overlord of one party, in order not to be infamous and to protect the people, he surrendered. The court is lucky, not to appease and reward, but to be suspicious?Still want to deprive people of their rights?Who would it be, would there be no complaints in my heart? "

Chapter 263

Li Er frowned and said: "According to what you said, Feng An ignores the emperor, but it is I who have let him down?"

"The sage Meng said: When a ruler treats his ministers like siblings, he will treat him like his heart; if he treats his ministers like dogs and horses, he will treat him like a countryman; if he treats his ministers like dirt, he will treat him like an enemy.

I think it is very appropriate to use it here. Although Feng An descended to the Tang Dynasty for the sake of fame, it may not be regarded as a single-minded descending to the Tang Dynasty, but he certainly did not have the heart of rebellion.

But looking back at Datang, what did we give him?It’s just a piece of fictitious seal. With or without this document, he is the local emperor of Lingnan. Now Datang doesn’t even give him basic trust, and he wants to use troops against him. Isn’t this forcing him to rebel? "

Although Bai Fan's remarks were not the way to be a minister, they could stand scrutiny. Everyone didn't speak, but Qi Qi fell into deep thought, thinking to himself that if they get along with each other, not only Feng An would do it, everyone would do it. In doing so, it is even possible for many people to directly rebel without paying tribute.

"I have already named him the Duke of Yue, and I trust him so far. If he comes to Chang'an to congratulate him, will I do that villain's thing, which is not good for him? After all, he still can't trust me." Li Er dissatisfied .

"Actually, this is like a reconciliation between two people who had a grudge. Since both parties don't want to fight anymore and want to get back together, it's nothing more than whoever reaches out to the other first. A paper document from the court can't be counted. The other party sees Not even the slightest bit of sincerity.

From the minister's point of view, the Lingnan issue is not a problem at all, and it can be resolved peacefully without using weapons. If the court is sincere enough, not only can Lingnan be completely obtained, but Feng An, a capable minister, can also be obtained. "

Everyone was attracted by Bai Fan's words, and they couldn't believe it.

Du Ruhui was puzzled and said, "What does it mean that the court is sincere enough? Did it send someone to give him a lot of gifts? Just make him king?"

"No, no, no, the so-called sending goose feathers from thousands of miles away is more important than courtesy!

Feng An was the overlord of the South back then, a prince along the way in the troubled times, and his status was equal to His Majesty in the early years, so if he wanted to subdue him, His Majesty had to personally go to Lingnan to befriend Feng An in the name of inspection, so absolutely Can show sincerity.

With His Majesty's affinity and the air of a king, the other party is not a born king, how can he stop him, he will definitely join him sincerely. "

"No, Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven, how can you put yourself in danger?"

Everyone stopped in unison.

Li Er was also weighing in his heart. According to Bai Fan's words, he calculated that there was at least an [-]% chance of success, but

"As the saying goes, if you don't want your child to be a wolf! If you want to solve the Lingnan problem perfectly, this is the only way, there is no other way. If your majesty is willing to save his life, isn't Feng An's various ways of living in Lingnan a way of self-preservation? Do you?

Without enough trust, how could he hand over everything and hand over his family and life to a court he had never met before? "

Li Er nodded, "That's right, everything Jian Zhi said makes sense, I think this is feasible!"

"Your Majesty must not! Now that the Tang Dynasty is uncertain, Your Majesty cannot leave Chang'an lightly, let alone Lingnan, which is thousands of miles away? Even if we know that this plan is perfect, it will not work!" Changsun Wuji persuaded.

"That's right, Your Majesty, it takes at least half a year to go back and forth to Lingnan. In case the Turks from the north or Tuyuhun or Goguryeo invade, without your Majesty in charge, how can we meet the enemy?" Li Jing also got up and persuaded.

"Traveling by the Son of Heaven has always been labor-intensive. In the past, Yang Guang traveled from Luoyang to Jiangdu and spent millions of manpower, which led to the exhaustion of the last vitality of the former Sui Dynasty. Although His Majesty travels just now, the journey was exhausted. Since there was a battle of 10 people, Datang couldn't afford it at all, please think twice, Your Majesty." Fang Xuanling persuaded.

Wei Zheng looked at Bai Fan who was deep in thought, and said, "Lan Tianhou, you are not in charge of the family and don't know how expensive the firewood is. If your Majesty goes out and has something to do, it will be too late to regret it. Since you once threatened to be an admonisher, why didn't you come out to dissuade him?"

Li Jiancheng asked, "Jane Zhi, is there really no other way? Can I go there? Or bring Chengqian with me? It's enough to show my sincerity!"

Everyone's eyes lit up, and they all nodded in agreement: "That's right, the King Jin and the crown prince, Feng An didn't even think about it, since he is known as a capable minister, then he should understand the importance of your Majesty not being able to leave lightly."

Li Er also thinks this plan is feasible!

With a flash of inspiration, Bai Fan laughed and said, "I have a better candidate here."

"Who?"

"The Supreme Emperor!"

Li Er laughed loudly, "Not bad, not bad, Jian Zhi is really smart!

My father is also the king of the Tang Dynasty, and Feng An's surrender was for my father. Now if my father can come forward to express his sincerity, I think it will not be inferior to me. It's a great plan! "

All civil and military officials nodded, they are indeed good candidates.

"Later, I will discuss with my father. I want to come to his old man who has lived in the deep palace for a long time, and I am willing to go out for a walk. Let alone this year, I will start preparations after the spring. The Supreme Emperor's southern tour is not a trivial matter. Although it consumes a lot of national power. Small, but for the long-term stability of Lingnan, the money that should be spent is still spent."

"Your Majesty is wise!"

"I think it doesn't cost much." Bai Fan said with a smile.

"Oh? Do you have any good ideas here?" Li Er laughed.

"Your Majesty, since the Supreme Emperor is going out to play, then the large team is a burden. Since the Tang Dynasty is already stable, why should we worry about it? Working hard will only increase the burden on the people. Why don't we send elite Xuanjia guards, just for fun along the way. , without disturbing the place, so that not only the expenditure is extremely small, but also the emperor can have fun.

If the Supreme Emperor is interested, he can visit privately in a micro-service, maybe it can also remove a few scourges for Datang!

As for the Lingnan side, we issued an official document early on saying that the Supreme Emperor was going to visit the Duke of Yue, and Feng An, the overlord of Lingnan, would receive him all the way, so there was no need to worry about safety. "Bai Fan said confidently.

"No, if Feng An really has the heart of rebellion, wouldn't the Supreme Emperor be a sheep? At least [-] troops should be brought to protect him." Li Jing persuaded.

Bai Fan waved his hand, "If he really wants to rebel, let alone [-], even [-] is not enough for people to eat. If you don't have trust in such a trick, why is the Supreme Emperor going there?"

"That's right, what Jian Jian said is right, since it's an expression of sincerity, I'll be the first to lend a hand of trust, I believe in Feng An!

Besides, even if he was in a daze, he would not detain his father. After all, his father was not an emperor, and he no longer took charge of government affairs. Feng An's detriment to his father would only lead to a large army fighting, which would be of no benefit to both parties.

As for the matter of traveling guards, I will make a decision after discussing with my father!

Bai Fan, I heard that you are the number one expert in the world today. Since you have proposed that the Supreme Emperor make a southern tour, then I think it will be safer to have you as the number one expert as the guard, so this time you will go south, you must protect yourself all the way Good father, don't lose anything!
