Chapter 326: The Routine is the longest road I've ever walked
He Guanglie stretched out his hand to the side, and Dao Lei immediately stepped forward and put his matching knife in He Guanglie's hand. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
He Guanglie pulled out the matching knife and looked at the blade, and closed it again, and the matching knife made a sonorous sound of weapons, He Guanglie looked at Yang Jing condescendingly, and said in a disdainful tone: "Lao Tzu wants to see today, which grandson is the one who doesn't shed tears when he doesn't see the coffin!"
Although He Guanglie did not use force, but at this moment he did not hide his murderous and aggressive aura, he was a general who had fought with flesh and blood on the battlefield, and the momentum was naturally very amazing when he released the coercion, Yang Jing, as a civilian official, faced such an opponent for the first time, his face turned pale with fright, and he couldn't bear the pressure and took a step back.
"You!He Guanglie!You dare to disobey!" Yang Jingse said inwardly.
He Guanglie said contemptuously: "Disobey the order? Lao Tzu resisted whose order? Has Your Majesty made an order?"
Yang Jing said angrily: "It was Lord Chen's order! As the governor of Donglin, Lord Chen is not qualified to deal with a traitor?
He Guanglie sneered: "Master Chen? He really doesn't have this qualification! Where was Lao Tzu when he went into battle to kill the enemy and defend the territory? You maggots who only fight for power and profit to eliminate dissidents, you think about how to suppress your own people on weekdays, and when the enemy comes, he runs faster than a rabbit, slandering Lao Tzu as a traitor? I think he is a traitor!"
Yang Jing was so angry that he took a step back and ordered his subordinates: "Arrest He Guanglie for me." ”
He Guanglie stood on it and looked at them mockingly, and casually swept the knife in his hand.
Yang Jinglai's people were intimidated by He Guanglie's momentum, and they looked at each other and did not dare to step forward.
Yang Jing was so angry that he scolded: "Waste!" But he didn't dare to step forward, last time in the county dungeon, he was beaten by He Guanglie, and now he feels pain when he thinks about it.
The two sides were at a stalemate until the arrival of the five princes.
The five princes have been in a hurry these days. Although Pan Jingfeng fell as he wished, and the forces that the six princes had gathered together in recent years were wiped out overnight, the Wendeng camp was not controlled by him as the five princes expected, but fell into the hands of Tan Shengtong, Hu Guang and other generals of the Wendeng camp. These generals have deep roots in the army, and it is not possible to change the situation by overthrowing one or two, neither the five princes nor the emperor can uproot these families now.
At the same time, the Jimo camp in the hands of the five princes was also a little turbulent in this contest between the various forces, and he began to suspect that there were people from other forces lurking in the Jimo camp, so he was busy rectifying recently, and he didn't even have time to look for trouble on the Wendeng camp.
At this time, Chen Hong began to attack He Guanglie.
In fact, when he learned that Yang Jing had brought someone here, He Guanglie immediately sent his subordinates to find the five princes, and then went out to meet Yang Jing at the door leisurely.
He Guanglie's people said to the five princes: "Your Highness, Chen Hong wronged him for collaborating with the enemy and treason in order to bring down my family, and listening to the meaning of Lord Yang's words, it seems that he suspects that our family is using convenience to deliver news to Daji when traveling between the capital and Yezhou. The road from the capital to Yezhou was opened by borrowing the power of Your Highness and the An family, and my family is afraid that Your Highness will be implicated in this matter, so let the little one report to you, so that you can take precautions as soon as possible, and don't fall into the way of some ill-intentioned people. In addition, after Lord Chen made such a fuss, the business in Yezhou may not be able to continue in the future. ”
After hearing this, the fifth prince's face turned pale.
Xue Xingyi has been helping the five princes to rectify the Jimo camp these days, and he happened to have something to report to the five princes.
The fifth prince asked Xue Xingyi: "What does Chen Hong mean!"
Xue Xingyi lowered his eyes and said, "Everyone has a position in action, His Highness may be able to see Lord Chen's position?"
The fifth prince couldn't help frowning: "Chen Hong's position, isn't he my father's person?"
Xue Xingyi's eyes were unwavering: "Your Highness, do you know why we didn't take the Wendeng camp?"
Hearing Xue Xingyi mention this, the fifth prince's face became even more ugly, "It's me who ignored Tan Sheng and these people!"
Xue Xingyi shook his head: "Dengzhou, Wendeng, Jimo three battalions, no matter which battalion is intertwined, not just Dengzhou battalion." Your Highness, you have lost this time in isolation. ”
Xue Xingyi's words made the five princes' faces change: "Isolated and helpless......"
"The minister is also sent by His Majesty to assist His Highness, for the minister, whether to attack the Wendeng camp first or the Dengzhou camp first depends on the situation, and the minister will not forget that the minister's ultimate duty is to assist His Highness in unifying the strength of the three battalions. And Chen Hong clung to the Dengzhou camp from beginning to end, but chose to turn a blind eye to the Wendeng camp. If Chen Hong helped in the three battalions this time, His Royal Highness might not lose the opportunity to control the Wendeng camp, but Lord Chen chose to attack Lord He at this time. Chen Hong, is he really His Majesty's person?" Xue Xingyi said in a calm tone that shocked the five princes.
"You mean to say that Chen Hong's allegiance is not to my father?" the fifth prince couldn't believe it.
Xue Xingyi thought for a while and said, "Lord Chen may be loyal to His Majesty, but he can also have his own position in addition to being loyal to His Majesty. ”
The fifth prince frowned, and said half-loudly: "Could it be that Chen Hong is also the sixth team standing?" But in this case, why would he marry his daughter to my mansion?"
Xue Xingyi did not speak.
But once the seed of doubt is planted, it will consciously sprout and break through the ground.
The Five Emperors thought for a long time, and suddenly seemed to understand something, gritted their teeth and said: "No, the Chen family is just a side concubine! If he really intends to follow me wholeheartedly, he will not cut off the Chen family's heirs and only seek a side concubine position for her! In other words, it is impossible for the Chen family to have an heir, so what is the difference between him supporting me and supporting the sixth child? I doubted Chen Hong's position before, and now it seems that my suspicions are not wrong! No wonder he knew that He Guanglie was my person and repeatedly suppressed him, but he let go of Pan Jingfeng, who followed the sixth child! No wonder he will put on He Guanglie this time for the crime of collaborating with the enemy and treason, it turns out that his target is not He Guanglie at all, but me!"
The more the fifth prince thought about it, the more frightened he became, and finally he couldn't sit still, so he got up suddenly: "No, I can't let Chen Hong's people take He Guanglie away! Once He Guanglie's charges are confirmed, I won't be able to get out of it! Zixu, you go to He's house with me!"
Xue Xingyi said: "Your Highness, there are some things that need to be dealt with by you now, which is why the ministers came to you." ”
When the fifth prince heard this, he said impatiently: "I see that those people in the camp either like to rely on the old and sell the old, or they are full of food and have nothing to do, and they also come to ask for instructions every day on trivial matters, and if they don't meet their wishes, they will make a fuss! Compared with the other two battalions, the Jimo battalion never defaults on military salaries, and the generals get more benefits than the other two battalions on weekdays, after all, the Jimo battalion is directly loyal to my father, and it is natural that there is a difference in treatment, but these people not only don't know gratitude, but they always have to inch in!"
Xue Xingyi said: "Comfort makes people slack, and so is the army. ”
The fifth prince said to Xue Xingyi: "I think the opinions you put forward before to rectify the Jimo camp are very good, so let's do what you want." ”
"Yes, Your Highness. ”
The fifth prince waved his hand: "Didn't you just say that there is something to deal with? You can stay and deal with it, you don't have to accompany me to the He family." ”
Xue Xingyi bowed his head and saluted: "Yes, Your Highness." ”
The fifth prince went to the He family, and Xue Xingyi came to the Jimo camp.
As soon as Xue Xingyi got off the horse, he was stopped by several sweaty generals, and it seemed that they had been waiting at the camp gate for a long time.
"Lord Xue, you're finally back!What did His Highness say there?Did he agree to forgive General Huo?" a black-faced general asked anxiously.
"Lord Xue! General Huo definitely didn't deliberately drink and make mistakes, his knee fell a little wrong on the battlefield in the early years, and now when he is older, he will relapse from time to time, and once he relapses, he will hurt all night, so he can only drink some wine to relieve pain, otherwise he won't be able to sleep at all! This time is the same, so he didn't hear the horn in the middle of the night, he didn't deliberately disobey the military order. ”
"Yes, Lord Xue! General Huo has made countless contributions, His Royal Highness can't dispose of him because of his negligence this time! Doesn't this chill the brothers?"
Several generals pleaded together for General Huo, and their words were earnest.
Xue Xingyi's face was pale: "You have made meritorious contributions, is the court missing your reward?"
Several people were stunned when they heard this.
Xue Xingyi's gaze swept over them: "If I remember correctly, last year, General Donghuo led you to repel a small group of bandits, but the commendation and reward of the imperial court were not arrived a month late due to heavy snow, what did you do at that time?"
Several generals looked at each other and were speechless.
Xue Xingyi's thin lips were lifted, full of mockery: "You directly made trouble in front of the five princes, and the five princes had to open their own private treasury to reward you." ”
The generals were a little sneered when they heard this.
The black-faced general couldn't help but say: "You can't blame us, our Jimo Battalion is different from the other two battalions, known as the Emperor Battalion, and the top has never been in arrears of rewards." We didn't want to make trouble with the five princes at that time, we just went to ask what's going on, His Royal Highness is generous, so we didn't say a word and made up for it. ”
Another general whispered: "Could it be that His Highness is dissatisfied with us because of this matter?"
Xue Xingyi's tone was cold: "I'm just telling you that meritorious service is rewarded, and the same mistakes should be punished, and no one can be an exception." ”
"That'...... What should His Highness General Huo do with it?" the black-faced general asked anxiously.
"Dispose of it according to military regulations. Xue Xingyi didn't raise his eyes and left without raising his eyes.
Several generals stood stunned on the spot when they heard this.
"What should be done according to military regulations?" asked one of the generals with a blank face and uncertain face.
The black face looked at Xue Xingyi's back in a daze, his legs were a little weak, "Chop, cut the ......" (to be continued.) )
