Chapter 115: The Son of Heaven stopped talking
Just one day before Ge Shuhan was about to rush to Tongguan, Li Longji, the Son of Heaven, suddenly summoned Qin Jin. On the way to Daming Palace, Qin Jin was uneasy in his heart, and he didn't know why the Son of Heaven summoned him. I heard that after Prime Minister Yang Guozhong received the admonition of the Son of Heaven, he had already claimed that he was sick at home, which touched Qin Jin the most, and he did not expect it.
According to Qin Jin's impression, Yang Guozhong relied on the relationship between Yang Guifei and should be flying up and down the government and the opposition, without scruples. The current situation is just the opposite, Yang Guozhong is loyal to his true impression, and he is quite cautious.
After a little thought, it is not difficult to understand that Li Longji has been a prince of peace for more than 40 years after all, and under the prestige, even if Yang Guozhong has won the sacred heart, he is afraid that he will have to be cautious in front of him and act with his tail between his legs. As for the government and the opposition, the so-called drilling and domineering is probably not in the open eye.
Qin Jin shook his chaotic head, before experiencing it himself, he would never have imagined that the prosperous Chang'an in his impression was like a quagmire, the relationship was complicated, and the officials were killed and displaced at every turn, which made it really difficult for him to accept it from the prosperous era of Qingping.
It is no wonder that Qin Jin once heard people say that being an official in the Tang Dynasty, especially being a Beijing official, was the most risky profession, because one day he would be involved in all kinds of inexplicable incidents, or die and be wiped out, or wander thousands of miles away to the land of Lingnan miasma, and he didn't know what year and month he would be able to return to the Central Plains.
In this political atmosphere, Yang Guozhong's actions have been quite cautious in Qin Jin's eyes, but compared to Li Linfu's leakage, it is still a level worse.
"The head of the house, it's here!"
The driver's words were crisp and neat, Qin Jin's hands and feet were numb in the car, compared to this kind of car that leaked on all sides, he preferred to ride a horse or walk, and the whole person would not be shivering when he moved.
Entering the Daming Palace, the spirit of the Son of Heaven was obviously not as good as what he saw a few days ago, his hair was not combed, but was slightly casually tied behind his head, and the black and white hair was mixed together, and it looked like gray from a distance.
Li Longji did not ramble this time, but went straight to the point, and after briefly inquiring about the recent situation of Qin and Jin, he mentioned the handover of the Xin'an Army. Everything involving military power is the most sensitive matter for Li Longji, and he does not dare to have the slightest abnormality.
Qin Jin originally wanted to find an opportunity to take Qi He by his side, but he couldn't say it when the words came to his lips. Such an obvious act of forming a gang and forming a faction, if it makes this suspicious and sensitive son of heaven worry about it, wouldn't it be self-defeating?
Needless to say, he was originally a solidarity soldier. But Zheng Xianli is not affiliated with anyone, and even has no official status with Qin Jin, so he naturally comes and goes freely. In addition, there is another person who needs to be decided by the Son of Heaven, that is, the Hu soldier Wu Hu Huaizhong of the Tongluo Department who surrendered halfway, and there are hundreds of Hu cavalry under the command of this person, all of whom are brave and good warriors.
"Wuhu Huaizhong?"
This name is very favored by Li Longji, a loyal general, even if he takes a good lip, it is also pleasing to people. It's just that a good impression is a good feeling, and Li Longji didn't plan to let a general go to the battlefield again out of prudence.
"Anyway, the general can't be treated badly, Qin Qing went back and told him that in the near future, I will promote him to Zhaowu lieutenant and reward him with a thousand gold. ”
Li Longji pondered and said that he had rewarded Wuhu Huaizhong.
Since Qin Jin came to Chang'an, he has made great efforts to the complicated and redundant official positions of the Tang Dynasty, and knows that this Zhaowu lieutenant is a military attache with the same rank as the sixth rank, and he is already in the lower middle class.
Although Deputy Lieutenant Zhaowu seems to be an inconspicuous petty official, this is already a step to the sky for Wuhu Huaizhong, who did not have a character official before.
"Together with the Luo Bu Hu soldiers, they were all incorporated into the Shenwu Army. Also, the soldiers of the Shenwu Army must be expanded as soon as possible, and the Southern Ya is very disappointed, and I plan to replace the silverfish in the Southern Ya with the Northern Ya Army!"
Qin Jin was shocked in his heart, this kind of military transfer arrangement, the Son of Heaven would never easily communicate with his subordinates, even if he discussed with the prime ministers, how could he find him, a Zhonglang general? Could it be that the Son of Heaven had other plans in his heart?
As soon as this thought jumped out of Qin Jin's heart, Li Longji had already solved his doubts.
"Qin Qing's Shenwu Army will officially patrol all squares in the city from today, and deal with illegal things strictly, and no favoritism will be allowed!"
Qin Jin hurriedly got up from the soft couch and saluted, "The minister obeys the order!"
Li Longji's words are clearly the will, Qin Jin naturally wants to express his position immediately, but he is bitter in his heart. Listening to the meaning of this old emperor, the original forbidden army of Nanya was still responsible for the city control and security of Chang'an City, and the role of the Shenwu army in it was somewhat similar to that of overseers, in order to deter those things that could be seen everywhere for favoritism.
In other words, the role played by the Shenwu Army was somewhat like that of the gendarmes of later generations, specializing in picketing lawlessness. However, this is definitely a thankless errand that offends people, but the words of the Son of Heaven, how can he have room to pick and choose?
"I used to tolerate these people too much, first out of the chaos of the fire in Nannei, and now there are cases of officials involved in the case fleeing from the city and shooting people's lives, Chang'an City is already a miasma, and people are panicking. I hope to see results within ten days, so that the atmosphere in the city will be renewed. ”
Although Li Longji's voice was not loud, it was firm and calm. His choice of Qin Jin and his people to take on this important task was also well thought out. Needless to say, Qin Jin's courage and ability are not to mention, otherwise it would be impossible to rush out of the desperate situation of Xin'an and return to Chang'an. What is even more commendable is that this person has no foundation in the DPRK, no relatives and friends, and is as clean as a blank piece of paper.
After explaining all the errands, just as Qin Jin was retiring, Li Longji suddenly spoke again: "Shangshu Zuo Servant will leave Beijing tomorrow to take up his post......
Qin Jin didn't know, so he could only answer yes, but he couldn't wait for the following. After another moment, I saw Li Longji wave his hand again, and seemed to swallow back what he wanted to say. So, Qin Jin left Daming Palace with a lot of confusion.
On the way back home after leaving Daming Palace, Qin Jin's injured leg began to ache faintly because of sitting for a long time, and the last half sentence of the Son of Heaven was recalled in his mind for a long time, but he couldn't guess what kind of content was hidden in it.
"Go to the Northern Forbidden Garden!"
Qin Jin rushed to the commander and ordered, he has not been to the military camp of the forbidden garden for many days, and he will always go to inspect and visit today, and in a few days, the old generals of the Xin'an Army will all be transferred east to Tongguan, and then I don't know when and what month they will be able to meet again.
So, the car that had just passed Yongxingfang turned around and headed north. At this moment, Li Gou'er's voice suddenly came from outside the car.
"The head of the house, the head of the house, there is an emergency!"
Qin Jin opened the curtain of the car, and sure enough, he saw Li Gou'er running out of breath.
"Come up!"
Li Gou'er, who got the order, didn't squirm, jumped into the car excitedly, and said closely: "Geshu Old Prime Minister's Mansion has come up, please come to the house!"
"Geshuhan?"
Qin Jin couldn't help but ask rhetorically.
"It's Ge Shu, the old man. ”
In fact, the people in the Qin Mansion privately called Ge Shuhan an old thief, and a rhetorical question just now almost made Li Gou'er call out his private name.
Thinking of the Son of Heaven's half-cut words, Qin Jin felt that he seemed to have grasped some key point, and he hesitated for a while.
Could it be that Li Longji was hinting at him to go and see Ge Shuhan? This is really an abnormality, how could the emperor ask his ministers to go down to meet the prime minister of the current dynasty?
Seeing that it would not be possible to go to the North Forbidden Garden, Qin Jin had no choice but to order the driver to drive to Yongjiafang, where Ge Shuhan was located.
The mansions of Ge Shuhan and Yang Guozhong are both in Yongjiafang, which is separated by a wall from the Xingqing Palace in the south.
In fact, after the renovation and expansion of Yongjiafang in the twenty-fourth year of Kaiyuan, it has been connected with Xingqing Palace, but Li Longji still retains the original mansion in the fang in order to show his favor to the courtiers, as a reward for the ministers.
Yang Guozhong, the head of the prime minister, held more than 40 official positions, and the favor he received was unparalleled in the Manchu Dynasty, and there was no suspense in living in Yongjiafang when he was rewarded. Although Ge Shuhan is not close to Li Longji, the Son of Heaven now wants to reuse his people to go out of Tongguan to quell the rebellion, so before the tenth day, he also rewarded him to live in the Yongjiafang mansion.
When I came to Yongjiafang again, there was still a lot of traffic inside and outside the gate, and the officials who met the prime minister and important ministers were still lined up. In comparison, the front of Yang Guozhong's mansion, which was crowded the day before yesterday, was much more empty, and it was almost crowded. As a result, there were relatively more people waiting to see Shangshu's left servant, Brother Shuhan.
Although these people all asked for the post of Geshufu, the meaning is different, and some people are interested in seeking officials, and they have prepared generous gifts in the hope of getting Geshuhan's recommendation and becoming officials. Some people don't meet talents, and they don't get the opportunity to show their strengths, so they come to visit the club for self-recommendation.
There are also some people who are Ge Shuhan's cronies, and seeing that the old minister is about to go to Tongguan to take office, they naturally want to listen to the admonition.
However, one of the officials who was waiting to meet caught Qin Jin's attention, because this person had a typical Turkic face with deep eyebrows and high eyes, and his identity was even more surprising to him.
This Turkic official Qin Jin recognized that it was An Yuanzhen, the Taifu Siqing, and An Yuanzhen's elder brother was An Sishun, the former envoy of Hexi Jiedu, and An Sishun also had a cousin who was not related by blood, called An Lushan.
That's right, it is An Lushan, the rebel general who occupied Luoyang and planned to establish a country and become emperor.
An Sishun is also more prescient, and he reported An Lushan's rebellion in advance, so that he was not implicated by the cheap brother, but he also lost the trust of the emperor, and since then he has been idle in Beijing, which is rare to reuse.
There is another point, Qin Jin has long heard that Ge Shuhan has always been on bad terms with An Sishun, why did An Yuanzhen come to see Ge Shuhan again?
