Chapter 282: The Prince Swears
It wasn't until he saw that the prison army turned out to be the most convincing father-in-law next to the emperor, and the uneasiness in An Tianyou's heart became stronger and stronger.
Since the generals of this dynasty led the troops outside, most of the emperor's cronies and relatives of the emperor would serve as supervisors, one was to supervise and inspect the army, ensure the transportation of grain and grass during wartime, and control the rewards and punishments of the generals, and the other was to prevent these generals from supporting their own troops, colluding with internal and external parties, and giving birth to a sense of disobedience.
The battle of Chu Zhao this time, although it was caused by the improper behavior of the king of Ningtai County, was also the dereliction of duty of the supervising army - in fact, it was not a trivial job to serve as a supervising army next to the generals of the clan.
In terms of status and the trust of the emperor, none of the supervisors can be relied on, and the king of Ningtai is a ruthless lord, so if he wants to survive smoothly, he can only be an ornament.
But in the end, it was the dereliction of duty of the supervising army, so it was normal for the imperial court to send another provisional army, and it was abnormal that there were few eunuchs in this dynasty who served as temporary troops.
At the same time that An Tianyou got the tip, the emperor also knew the approximate cause of the Nanzhao incident at about a while, because the war was not over, it was not yet the time to liquidate, so he only temporarily detained the king of Ningtai in the capital, and this time the prison army had the responsibility to thoroughly investigate the matter.
Ningtai County Gong was originally a clan, not only repeatedly made great contributions to Da Chu, but also made every effort in the emperor's accession to the throne, so he has always been favored by the emperor, but also because of the arrogance that gradually breeds, ordinary officials can not see his eyes, but they are afraid that if they check him over there, the family in the capital will be harmed by him.
Fortunately, the prince of Ningtai County has always been close to the clansmen and has a good relationship with the clansmen, so the emperor and all the civil and military officials are reluctant to use the children of the clan, and the clans are not willing to wade into this troubled water, so they set the eunuch Hou to serve as the supervisor.
Everything was reasonable, An Tianyu just had a gut feeling that something was wrong, but he had no evidence, so he had to order everyone to closely monitor the situation on Nanzhao's side.
As for the affairs in the capital, An Tianyou finally decided to continue after thinking about it.
Although at the beginning, he also felt that national affairs were the first priority, and it was better to put internal affairs aside for the time being and unanimously externalize.
However, this Nanzhao Kingdom is a different matter.
It is said that the Southern Zhao Kingdom was also the territory of the former dynasty, and later the war, the county Taishou at that time took advantage of the chaos to establish himself as the king, at that time he had a lot of soldiers and horses in his hands, and expanded to the south into a lot of land.
After the founding of the Great Chu, he saw the opportunity to send people to call the ministers, at that time, the war was endless, and it was easy to calm down, the people were tired of war, and the Great Chu Emperor had to temporarily recognize him as a vassal state of Tibet, but he made up his mind to take it back. It's just that later Nanyi became strong, and Nanzhao became a minister on both sides, and the Great Chu Dynasty was not easy to make a move for a while.
Fortunately, in recent years, the monarchs of Nanzhao have become more mediocre than the next, and most of the subordinates also love pleasures.
For the Great Chu Dynasty, this is really a big piece of fat hanging on the side of the mouth, which is unbearable, and it makes people's hearts straight~ itchy.
This is also the root cause of Ningtai Jungong's repeated oppression of Nanzhao, which is nothing more than wanting to pick something out so that he can take the opportunity to take over Nanzhaoguo.
But when the emperor was also a general, the march and war was already powerful, and now that he is the emperor, he sees more and more lofty, and knows that if he does not gnaw the hard bone of Nanyi, it will be difficult for Nanzhao to take back, as long as he gnaws Nanyi, if he deals with it properly, he may be able to reclaim Nanzhao without spending a single soldier.
This is also the countermeasure policy of An Tianyu when he was the Changxing Emperor to recover the Southern Zhao Kingdom. The king of Ningtai County was proud of his achievements, he couldn't listen to it, and after the weakening of Beidi, he had no worries anymore, so he thought about receiving Nanzhao first, and using the land of Nanzhao to level Nanyi, in order to repay the hatred of almost losing the country that year.
Fortunately, An Shicheng has been stationed in Nanyi for many years, and he can see and know the response policy of the DPRK and China to Nanzhao, and the monarch of Nanzhao is not hard-hearted.
An Tianyou decided to still do ~ things according to the plan.
Moreover, the king of Ningtai is in the capital, which can be regarded as an opportunity not to be borrowed.
Everyone wants to live a stable life, and now the An clan is getting older than the Duke of Ningtai County, and his heart and eyes have not grown much, but he is really a good rafter.
The war is not over in a day or two, and the people of the country know that Nanzhao is weak, and with the opening of the army, it seems to be blown away by the wind in a few days.
It turned out that Yao's family had been quietly invited by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to be awarded the Nine Grades of Fengyi because of his meritorious pregnancy, although his position was very low, but he was also a nobleman.
Seeing the prince do this, it made the rumors of borrowing seeds disappear a lot. But there are also humane people: The prince's heir is so difficult, why don't you do too much private things and get retribution? In this case, how can you be the future son of heaven?
This is not all An Tianyou's handiwork.
An Shihong came out of the imperial study with an injury, and he was already seen by people with a heart, and the hearts of the two princes were alive.
Back then, they were just concubines, and fireflies didn't dare to compete with the sun and the moon, but now they are both emperors' sons, who is worse than whom, and there are many examples of Shu as emperors in history.
So it was inevitable to stir up harmony in this, An Shihong has always been shrewd, a measure of awareness, and immediately took action, so the two princes immediately lost the emperor's heart, and were sent far away to the land of poor mountains and bad waters, although they were called kings, they were actually prisoners.
It's just that once the rumors spread, they will stop wherever they say, so An Tianyou immediately asked people to follow this line and mention the assassination of the former Empress Dowager Liu and the An clan.
When the emperor heard this, he was shocked and immediately summoned his son over and ordered him to deal with the matter as soon as possible.
An Shihong was checking and suppressing on the one hand, and on the other hand, he went to King Yongping and others to appease and explain.
Fortunately, King Yongping and others did not doubt him, and comforted him: "This is a peaceful life for a long time, and some people want to provoke trouble, so they can fish in trouble." ”
An Shihong didn't know about the posthumous summons, but it was still passed on by his two cousins - although the matter was kept secret back then, they were in the same house, and the two of them might not be aware of it.
Li Quan and Liu Niangniang have been closely monitored, although the Lu Wangfu did not know, but there was no shortage of people to monitor, but I didn't expect to go on a business trip here in An Tianyou, so even the emperor noticed that the situation was different, and he only hated that the two concubines couldn't support the wall, only looking at the immediate interests, I don't know how much impact this matter has on his family, and after the future, he has to teach him a good lesson.
The king of Ningtai County was in a bad mood, and when he heard this rumor, he immediately got up and found an opportunity to block An Shihong and ask about the past.
An Shihong refused to admit it, and shouted injustice.
King Ningtai said: "I don't believe it, but since someone said it, I think it's better to ask." Since you have been wronged, I will believe you, and you only need to swear an oath. ”
