Yu Chaoen gave up crossing the Weishui to clear the remnants of the fugitive soldiers, of course, it would not be out of courtesy, the real purpose was this.

When he entered the palace today, he said every word, and there was not a single word of falsehood, even if the Son of Heaven sent someone to investigate, he was not afraid at all. Moreover, even if the Son of Heaven is dissatisfied and suspicious of him, he can only admit this result after all, and he will plant a seed in the heart of the Son of Heaven, a seed that is suspicious of the Shenwu Army and Feng Yijun's Taishou Qin Jin.

As we all know, it was precisely because the Son of Heaven was afraid of the Shenwu Army that he drove them out of Chang'an without being able to cut off the wings of Qin and Jin. The reason why the Shenwu Army was placed in Feng Yijun was probably due to the consideration of nearby surveillance, and once Qin Jin made any changes, he could break the wrist of the strong man at the first time.

In fact, the Son of Heaven has a more powerful killer weapon, more than seventy percent of the Shenwu Army is from the children of the big families living in Chang'an, just ask if there is such a hostage in hand, who would dare to rebel with Qin Jin regardless of it?

In Yu Chaoen's consciousness, Qin Jin has been directly classified into a bunch of people who have turned against him, and this person will rebel sooner or later, and the difference is only sooner or later.

Now return all the responsibilities to Qin Jin, and then take the opportunity to push him, presumably he will definitely grit his teeth angrily.

Yu Chaoen pouted his ass and lay on the ground, pretending to cry for a long time, but he didn't see the Son of Heaven reacting, so he couldn't help but raise his head and peek at it. No, this glance collided with Li Longji's cold gaze, and in an instant, Yu Chaoen only felt that he had been stripped naked, and he was flustered for no reason, and immediately lowered his head again, secretly scolding himself for being stupid and unable to hold his breath, and no longer dared to act rashly.

On the couch, Li Longji's old face showed a trace of an imperceptible sneer, and Yu Chaoen's actions fell into his eyes without falling, making him feel that the initiative was back in his hands.

"This time to quell the rebellion, make a decision immediately, leave no trouble, do a good job, I will be rewarded again. ”

After saying this, he waved his hand tiredly and motioned for Yu Chaoen to retreat.

In just the blink of an eye, Yu Chaoen was already soaked in cold sweat with his inner and outer clothes and robes, and when he saw that the Son of Heaven asked him to retreat, he suddenly retreated like a dog with his tail between his legs.

Until Yu Chaoen's footsteps disappeared completely, Li Longji could no longer hide the anger in his heart, and swept out all the official documents stacked on the imperial case, and all kinds of them immediately flew out and scattered all over the ground one after another.

Seeing this, the eunuch serving in the hall cautiously stepped forward to pick it up, Li Longji did not stop it, he only felt that the palace was extremely depressed, and he was about to go out of the hall to breathe, but he heard an old voice trembling.

"The saint must ensure the dragon body, and he must not spoil his body because of those who have no conscience, otherwise, otherwise the sky of Datang will collapse......"

It was Gao Lishi, and since he was seriously ill, Li Longji left him in Xingqing Palace to recuperate. Li Longji even set aside a quiet courtyard in the palace for his use.

Gao Lishi's voice really calmed Li Longji's anger a lot, but he still said angrily: "Yu Chao's kindness has bad intentions, and I know that it is inappropriate, but I can only let it go." ”

A sigh echoed in the empty hall.

Murky old tears welled up in Gao Lishi's eyes, the Son of Heaven was already an old man, but he was so angry, how could it not be sad?

It's just that Gao Lishi didn't know what to say to comfort the old man, in fact, he knew at all that saying anything would have no effect.

The situation in the world is rotten day by day, unless someone can stand up and turn the tide and smooth out the chaos at home and abroad in one fell swoop.

However, this situation is almost an extravagant expectation and is simply not possible. Reason told Colliers that not only would the situation not improve, but if he continued to let the court fight continue......

It took a long time for Colliers to think of a painless word to break the awkward silence of the temple.

"No matter how bastard Yu Chaoen is, he can't mess with Qin Jin's erection, maybe they are purely for merit. ”

Li Longji then nodded.

"My command, from now on, there will be no majesty!"

After Yu Chaoen's yang and yin disobedience this time, as long as the lord general outside has a tough personality, he can completely follow the example and not take his life in his eyes. And this is the most difficult to accept for a son of heaven, especially Li Longji is still a son of heaven who has been in the world for more than 40 years, how can he bear to be despised by a eunuch and traitorous minister?

As his body grows older, Li Longji feels more and more powerless, but there is more and more chaos inside and outside the court, and he needs to have enough energy to clarify the chaos and eliminate the people who are troubled by ambition.

There was a compromise with Qin Jin first, so that Feng Yi was released. Now there is another Yu Chaoen who suddenly violates the yang and yin, which really makes Li Longji lose face, and the majesty of the Son of Heaven accumulated for more than 40 years is almost lost.

"I'm only afraid, Yu Chaoen's ambition is more than this, if one day it suddenly becomes difficult, whether I can end up well is between the two. ”

The words of the Son of Heaven frightened Gao Lishi, he never imagined that the Son of Heaven's mind was already so extreme, since he used Yu Chaoen to lead the troops, but he doubted it. However, Gao Lishi, who was obviously extremely suspicious and couldn't deal with it, knew Li Longji's character very well, and could imagine how unbearable the torment in his heart should be.

By the dim candlelight in the hall, Gao Lishi narrowed a pair of old eyes, and glanced at the Son of Heaven, who had served for more than 40 years, but saw that his hair, which was black and white a year ago, was still gray, and the chaos that followed not only made his heart haggard, but also made him old at an unprecedented speed.

At this glance, Gao Lishi's nose was sour, and he said that the Son of Heaven was rich in the world and enjoyed the prosperity and wealth of the world, but today he has also suffered a lot of torture that is difficult for people in the world to understand. After all, what was unfolding in front of him at the moment was nothing more than a drooping old man with a white beard.

"Let's go, follow me to the garden, it's difficult to breathe in this hall. ”

After saying that, Li Longji shook his old body, grabbed Gao Lishi's arm, and walked out of the hall.

……

Since the return of the Shenwu Army's expedition, the Hegong Battalion has exploded.

The Shence Army commanded by Yu Chaoen killed 50,000 Shandong fugitives in two battles, and the Hegong Battalion became all Shandong fugitives.

These news are under the control of Lu Qi, who supervises the river engineering battalion, he has discussed with Qin Jin, the matter of the rebellion of the fugitives cannot be hidden, there are currently 100,000 river workers in the river engineering battalion, if they learn the news from various channels, it is better to be actively disclosed by the Shenwu army or the county guard, as long as the emotions of the river workers are reasonably channeled, maybe the bad thing will become a good thing.

In just one day, under the deliberate guidance of the county guard and the Shenwu Army, the whole Hegong battalion formed a unanimous public opinion, and they condemned and accused the eunuchs of being vicious and ruthless.

However, when Lu Qi went to the county guard to report on the ideological dynamics of the river workers, Qin Jin withdrew from everyone, and his face turned gloomy.

"Let's be honest, fugitive rebellion, but are you fueling the flames?"

Qin Jin's question came suddenly, and Lu Qi was unprepared, and he opened his mouth for a while. Then, he immediately realized that Qin Jin had never said anything that he was not sure of, and since he personally inquired today, there must be tangible evidence, and he did not dare or want to continue to conceal it, so he lowered his head and said bluntly:

"It is true that the last general has used his strength in the shadows, but after the fugitives have risen up, they have completely lost control, and there seems to have been a fire and purge from within. Later......"

Qin Jin sneered: "Later, the text denounced and attacked Chang'an, it was all out of your control, right?"

"The last general is ashamed!"

"Once the recruitment is successful, your actions in it will inevitably lead to the incident, don't you realize the seriousness of the problem?"

Lu Qi was in a cold sweat, he had always had a fluke mentality, and he did things out of a momentary enthusiasm, and rarely considered the consequences. Then, suddenly, he opened his mouth and asked:

"Could it be that ...... of the elite sent by the envoy to the rebel camp?"

He suddenly understood that it was unreasonable for Qin Jin to send someone to assassinate the leader of the rebels, and he didn't expect that he wanted to clean up the troubles.

Among the people sent was a brigade leader, who was his cronies, and had been in charge of the rebellion with the fugitives. At that time, Lu Qi was lucky enough to think that it should be a coincidence that Qin Jin sent the brigade to lead the head to the camp of the fugitive rebels, but when he turned back at this moment, his plot was discovered early on.

"Since the envoy already knows about the plan of the last general, why don't you stop it?"

Qin Jin sighed.

"When I learned of this, I was ready to do so, and the account of the fifty thousand souls will henceforth be counted on you and me. ”

50,000 lives died for various reasons, and the source finally fell on Qin Jin's body, and he had inexplicable anxiety for the first time, which can also be said to be numb.

Maybe I have seen too many dead people, whether they are Hu people or Han people, those who have been killed by themselves, those who have been killed by the Shenwu Army, or those who have died indirectly because of the Shenwu Army, have gradually reduced from flesh and blood with specific outlines to cold and numb numbers.

The troubled times have begun, and all the dead are just footnotes behind the numbers.

Lu Qi was silent, not knowing how to answer. He never thought, or didn't want to think about it, that those 50,000 people had become unjust souls just because of his thoughts.

However, Lu Qi suddenly defended: "The last general did plot against them, but he arranged a way back for them, these people are not greedy enough, and they want to break Chang'an and change the world, so they should bear the consequences......

Qin Jin let out another long cry and did not refute it.

"I have written again, asking the Son of Heaven to investigate the responsibility of Bian Lingcheng for abducting the fugitives and causing chaos, no matter how difficult this person is to get rid of the crime, it can be regarded as a blessing in misfortune, one less traitor to make a rebellion, can always make the variables a little less. "

What is the variable in Qin Jin's mouth, Lu Qi doesn't know much, but he also knows that Bian Lingcheng has done countless bad things behind his back, and this person is absolutely happy to be implicated in this rebellion and ambushed.
