Chapter 124: Reshuffle
Li Qing said without a trace of emotion: "What price is Lord Wang going to offer?" “
Wang Sanjun said confidently: "What does Master Li want? High-ranking officials or glory and wealth? Emperor Taizu is old, and the emperor is still too young, so adults can choose to live in wood. “
Li Qing said without the slightest emotion: "Lord Wang should have checked my details, it seems that the household department still owes me a lot of money and food, and the debtor came to tell the creditor that he is rich, why do I sound so awkward." “
Wang Senjun also sounded awkward, he really had nothing to say, he knew about this, and the imperial court owed a total of 1.5 million stone grain.
Li Qing looked at Wang Senjun and said: "Lord Wang, don't think about it, the purpose of my coming to Yulin Pass this time is very simple, I just hope that the war will end as soon as possible, I just want to take away the people in my Li Qing realm." I don't know how much I can believe what Lord Wang said, of course, when there is a result, Lord Wang will naturally believe it. Also, please help me convey that I am not targeting the Queen Mother's family, if it weren't for Yin Pushan who bullied me, I would never touch him. “
Wang Sanjun looked at Li Qing and thought that what he said should be true, he had also found someone to investigate today's incident, it was an emergency, if there was no such thing, Yin Pushan would still be the governor of Yulin Guan.
Wang Sanjun looked at Li Qing's cold face, believed five points, and asked, "How does Lord Li plan to take revenge on General Sima?" ”
Li Qing replied: "What did Lord Wang say, when did he say that he would retaliate against General Sima, he joined the army, General Sima did not make a mistake, and naturally he would not make something out of nothing, but if General Sima made a mistake, then he will definitely not tolerate his self-blame, my lord has been in Yulin Pass for a long time, if you hear any rumors, don't hide it, we are all officials of the Tang Dynasty, and we must act in accordance with the laws of the Tang Dynasty." ”
Wang Senjun nodded and said, "What the lord said, what the lord said is, the lower officials will retire first." ”
The people of Emperor Taizu's family are stepping up to collect the incriminating evidence of Yin Pushan and others, the people of the Empress Dowager's family are discussing the credibility of what Li Qing said, and the neutral people are thinking about how to continue to be neutral.
When Li Qing returned to Li's house, it was already dark, and Li Qing took a shower and changed his clothes. The jade pendant, the jade ring, the seal and the two letters on his body were all placed in a small wooden box, and the box was wrapped in a black cloth.
His current identity is blurred, and he doesn't want to ruin the current situation because of these things.
He can now cooperate with Emperor Taizu, with the Queen Mother's people, and even with the children of the family because of interests.
Li Qing walked around the bedroom, climbed up the beam, put the black cloth bag in a dark corner, and couldn't find anything in that place when he looked at it, Li Qing felt that there was no problem, so he jumped off the beam.
On the same day, the news of Yin Pushan's conviction reached the ears of Sima Yunfei and Yang Ye, and the two discussed the matter while eating.
Sima Yunfei said: "This Li Qing really has a way, this can convict Yin Pushan, if this matter is big, it is estimated that the Queen Mother will be in trouble." ”
Yang Ye took a sip of tea and said: "Emperor Taizu will never let go of such a good opportunity, the wreck of the Empress Dowager is certain, but it is still unknown whether Li Qing can reach the heavenly court with this twist." ”
Yang Ye put down the teacup and continued: "If Li Qing is not from our family, and he still has the ability to reach the heavenly court, you will die, you don't forget who sent his people to the Governor's Mansion." ”
Sima Yunfei sneered and said, "No, I'm also the chief general of Yulin Pass." ”
Yang Ye didn't reply, I hope so, but his feeling is not very good.
Ten days later, Yin Pushan's incriminating evidence poured into Jingshi like a tide, and the Queen Mother tried her best to stop it.
Li Qing personally wrote a letter of remembrance, the content of which was all Yin Pushan's mistakes and culpabilities in Yulin Pass, and asked people to copy fifty copies, all of which were stamped with the seal of joining the army.
Li Qing divided the evidence of Yin Pushan's crime and the testimony of the people into 50 parts, and put them in the 50 copies of the reproduction. There is also a list in each recital, on which is written what evidence is placed in the fifty recitals, what way, what route, where the book goes, and whose hands it ends up.
Then Li Qing sent fifty copies of the recital to the Beijing Division from different channels, different routes, and different hours, some to the Prime Minister's Mansion, some to the Imperial Historical Observatory, some to Zhongshu Province, and some directly to the Emperor of the Face Song, and some from the inner line of Xu Senjun to the Emperor Taizu.
The Queen Mother's people can stop this letter, they can't stop that letter, and what they stop has become a hot potato
Ten days later, the folds with the evidence of Yin Pushan's guilt poured into the Jingshi like a tide, and when the emperor received the first letter, when he saw the list attached to it, he knew that someone dared to intercept the book, and he was furious.
The emperor was angry, so he took the book and found Emperor Taizu.
Emperor Taizu praised after seeing it: "Good job, I just went to Yulin Pass for half a month, and I did such a big thing." ”
The emperor looked at his grandfather laughing, thinking that everyone is the emperor, how can he not think about it.
Emperor Taizu smiled and said: "Qian'er looks good, you can do well or badly, the emperor's grandfather is behind you, don't be afraid, you can't be afraid to be the emperor." ”
The emperor began to thoroughly investigate each piece of music according to what was written on the list, and for some reason did not reach the heavenly court, or did not arrive on time.
Only then did the emperor begin to vigorously rectify the dynasty with the prime minister. Immediately, the people in the court were panicked.
Yin Pushan's culpability is already very clear, and it doesn't matter how much evidence there is, what matters is that these people who dare to intercept or seize the book are now daring to intercept the book.
Yin Pushan is a small person implicated in a lot of court bigwigs, the emperor spent three months to rectify the court, Yin Pushan himself was not implicated in many people, but the blocking of the case implicated many people, the court was beheaded and distributed more than 20,000 people, which was the largest court purge in the Tang Dynasty in 50 years.
Emperor Taizu took this opportunity to issue an order to confine the Queen Mother in the dormitory, and no one was allowed to visit her.
The power carefully established by the emperor collapsed, and the empress dowager lost power.
Today's emperor has Emperor Taizu in charge, and the government is handled in an orderly manner.
The emperor asked people to reorganize the evidence of Yin Pushan's crimes, and ordered the Criminal Department to send people to escort Yin Pushan and related people into Beijing.
The emperor rewarded Li Qing and asked Li Qing to temporarily take over the Yulin Guan Governor's Mansion and wait for the new governor to take office.
Emperor Taizu felt that the emperor had handled this matter very well, and he was decisive in killing, which was enough to shoulder the burden of the country. took the concubine quietly to the princess's mansion to live in seclusion, and did not care about the major affairs of the court.
The fall of the Empress Dowager's forces caused the entire court to reshuffle and redivide forces.
