Li Yanran nodded towards Cheng Yaojin, and then looked at Li Ji.
To be honest, the Grand Marshal of the World's Armed Forces should have been handed over to Li Ji, but he is already old and may have to conquer all directions in the future, which is really worrying.
So she finally chose Su Dingfang, and he believed that the other party would not blame him.
"Li Ji accepted the order. There will be no problems with me in Gyeonggi Province, but if he wants to take complete control, he will need Lu Guogong and Xing Guogong to write me a few letters."
Li Ji saluted Li Yanran and expressed all his thoughts.
"That's natural."
"I'll write it later!"
The two nodded together. They understood what Li Ji meant very well. These people had great prestige in the Tang army. With their letters, there would definitely be no trouble for those Zhechong captains.
"Mr.
The first thing you have to do is to stabilize the border army and the major border guard generals. As long as they are not in chaos, the Tang Dynasty will not be in chaos.
Also, if there is a problem with these royal brothers, you will also be responsible for dispatching troops and generals to put down the rebellion.
So it all depends on you! "
Li Yanran finally set her sights on Xing Guogong Su Dingfang. The marshal of the world's soldiers and horses is not just a talk.
To be practical and travel all over the country to work.
This is also the reason why I chose him.
"Su Dingfang also needs the support of letters from the two Dukes. In addition, if you want the Tang Dynasty to be stable, Your Majesty also needs the support of these two people!"
Su Dingfang saluted and slowly spoke to Li Yanran.
"Are you talking about Xue Li, the Commander-in-Chief of the Anton Protectorate, and Liu Rengui, the Commander-in-Chief of the Navy?"
Li Yanran immediately understood Su Dingfang's thoughts. Now he can be said to have gathered some of the most powerful battlefield veterans in Datang.
The only ones Su Dingfang could be wary of were Xue Rengui and Liu Rengui who were far away in Goguryeo.
One of them holds hundreds of thousands of troops to guard Goguryeo, and the other holds the only navy in the Tang Dynasty, with hundreds of battleships and 100,000 marines.
If these two people cannot surrender, then the Tang Dynasty will be in trouble.
"Yes, I hope your Majesty will send an order for the two of them to return to Chang'an to report on their duties, and then make a decision after finding out their intentions."
Su Dingfang glanced at Li Yanran and thought that this girl was really powerful. He would understand it as soon as he said it.
"inappropriate."
Li Yanran shook her head and rejected Su Dingfang's suggestion.
"Your Majesty, why is it inappropriate?"
Su Dingfang frowned, wondering what Li Yanran meant.
"These two are the pillars of the country and generals of the Tang Dynasty with heavy troops. If they are recalled for no reason now, what will they think?
If they are slandered again by those who are interested, won't I force them to rebel? "
Li Yanran expressed her opinion directly.
"But."
Su Dingfang was stunned for a moment. What Li Yanran said made sense, but if we don't recall them now, if these people become disloyal, there will be big chaos.
"When dealing with them, you must treat them with courtesy first and then attack them with force. Di Renjie, please put aside the affairs of the court for the time being and pack up your things before sending me as an envoy.
First go to Baekje to find Liu Rengui and then go to Pyongyang to find Xue Rengui. Even if they have any ideas, they must be stabilized by me. They must not be deceived by others. "
The only person Li Yanran can trust now is Di Renjie, and he also trusts Xue Rengui and Liu Rengui.
After all, I was kind to these two people no matter what. If I hadn't recommended Xue Rengui and Liu Rengui, they wouldn't have their current status.
And the most important thing is that both of them are loyal to the Tang Dynasty, and they must understand the current situation clearly. If they rebel, their wives, children, and children will definitely be doomed if nothing else.
"Su Dingfang understands!"
Su Dingfang nodded, the current situation can only be like this.
"Okay, let's go our separate ways."
"Here!"
"Here!"
"Here!"
Several people stood up together, saluted Li Yanran, then turned and left.
"Auntie, why didn't you speak just now?"
After everyone left, Li Yanran also looked at the old lady beside her.
"You arranged it very well, there is nothing wrong with it, naturally I can't say anything!"
Wu Zetian also smiled and touched Li Yanran's little head.
"Auntie, Yanran has something to tell you!"
Li Yanran hesitated for a moment and then spoke to my mother.
"You want to say Changsun Wuji!"
Wu Zetian looked at Li Yanran and immediately guessed what Li Yanran wanted to say.
"Well, Changsun Wuji told his daughter before that the reason why you want to support me in becoming a leader is actually to pave the way for you.
When the world accepts the fact that a woman is the emperor, you will depose me and ascend the throne yourself. "
Li Yanran directly expressed Changsun Wuji's worries.
"Then what does my good daughter think? What do you think grandma thinks?"
Wu Zetian smiled again and asked Li Yanran. "Of course my daughter doesn't believe him, otherwise I wouldn't be able to tell my mother about this."
Li Yanran hugged my mother's arm, looking innocent.
"Then if Aniang really thinks so, Xiao Yanran, how will you deal with it?"
Wu Zetian touched Li Yanran's little head with a kind face and asked in response to her words.
"Auntie, it's not like you don't know that your daughter has no intention of taking the throne. Besides, you are a thousand times more powerful than your daughter.
If you really want this throne, just say so, and my daughter will give it to you right away.
You become the emperor, and I will continue to be your good daughter. I eat delicious food and drink spicy food every day. Isn’t he delicious? "
Li Yanran smiled like a flower and replied sweetly to my mother.
"Yanran, you are the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty now, how can you be so useless?
All A Niang wants is to protect the Tang Dynasty forever, and she has no dirty thoughts like Changsun Wuji.
When the court is stable, you help my mother build a temple in front of your father's mausoleum, and she will live there forever.
Firstly, it can eliminate my mother's influence in the court, secondly, I can accompany your father every day, and thirdly, my mother can also chant sutras and pray for you and Hong'er, so as to protect the Tang Dynasty for generations to come. "
Wu Zetian also sighed. She knew very well that her daughter was in a great position. Not to mention that she was now the emperor, the power behind her was the only one in the Tang Dynasty.
Not to mention that I didn't have Changsun Wuji's dirty thoughts at all. Even if he did, all the military power of the Tang Dynasty was in the hands of a few people.
She couldn't succeed either.
"Auntie, what do you mean? Yanran has no intention of chasing you away.
My daughter needs you, and Datang needs you even more. You can't help me up and just let me go! "
Li Yanran was depressed. My mother had misunderstood her.
She really has no nostalgia for the throne. After all, this job is much harder than 996 in later generations.
She had been a social animal in her previous life and had had enough of that.
If she hadn't rushed to the shelves, she would never have ascended to the throne.
"What do you care? This Tang Dynasty belongs to the Li family, not my mother-in-law.
By helping you to ascend to the throne and ensuring the stability of the Tang Dynasty, my mother's mission will be completed.
I have worked hard for such a long time, and it’s time to take a break! "
Wu Zetian also smiled at her daughter, whether her daughter meant it or not.
She doesn't care anymore. As long as her children are safe and the Tang Dynasty is stable, what if she retreats bravely?
As for the power behind her, it's not her son who cares about so much.
"Aniang, you...are you really going to let Yanran be trapped in that memorial all day long at such a young age? You are so cruel!"
Li Yanran was depressed. In the past, my father and mother shared the work and were busy day and night.
If it had been her alone, she couldn't even imagine the consequences.
"That's your own business. Now that Hong'er is older, can't you just ask him to help you share the burden?
These are all things for now, go and accompany your father. "
Wu Zetian smiled again, your father has me, and you also have your silly brother.
In the past few years, Li Hong has made a lot of progress and should be able to help Li Yanran a lot.
"Yes, let's spend some time with my father first!"
Li Yanran wanted to cry when she mentioned her father. Now that the arrangements had been made, it was time to spend time with her father.
When she came to Li Zhi's bedroom again, Li Yanran also sighed when she saw Li Hong sleeping in front of Li Zhi.
He took off his clothes and gently put them on Li Hong.
"Sister, are you back?"
Li Hong woke up and showed his father a smile that was uglier than crying.
"Okay, you go down and rest first, I want to talk to my father!"
Li Yanran also smiled at Li Hong and asked him to go down and rest first.
"Well, sister, my father is most afraid of being alone. When you get tired, I will accompany you!"
Li Hong nodded, got up and left directly.
"Father, Yanran understands your wishes. When I stabilize the situation in the Tang Dynasty, and when Hongdi has grown up, my daughter will abdicate the throne to Hongdi."
"Father, the flowers in Lishan are blooming and very beautiful. Yanran will take you to see them when the time comes."
"Father, we have saved a lot of money now, and Yanran is keeping it for you! When the time comes, Yanran will take you on a sightseeing tour, and my daughter will pay for all the expenses."
"Father, Yanran is so scared without you protecting me. Yanran misses you."
As Li Yanran spoke, she lay on the bed, tears flowing down uncontrollably.
That night, she had a dream, in which she followed her father on a tall horse, carrying her across the vast rivers and mountains of the Tang Dynasty.
That night, she had a dream. In the dream, she and her father were playing chess around the fire. Her father kept saying that she was a rotten tree and failed to live up to this good game of chess.
That night, she had a dream. In the dream, her father held her hand and said that father and daughter would work together to make all the wealth in the world.
That night, she had a dream, in which there was only the back of her father, walking alone on the long sandy road.
That night, she had a dream, in which she was the only one, and her father was no longer around.
That night, she did not dream. She lost forever the father who loved her most, the father who doted on her, loved her, tolerated her, and always stood in front of him at all times to protect her from wind and rain.
That night, there was no such night.
To be honest, the Grand Marshal of the World's Armed Forces should have been handed over to Li Ji, but he is already old and may have to conquer all directions in the future, which is really worrying.
So she finally chose Su Dingfang, and he believed that the other party would not blame him.
