Chapter 258: The famous general Li Guang is difficult to frame
Sima Qian wrote back to Ren An and said, "My little brother has been cut off." Pen~Fun~Ge www.biquge.info do you think the emperor will listen to my good words? Then I didn't know how to say a few words for my little brother? This reply is the famous article of "The Book of Bao Ren'an" that we learned later in high school.
In fact, it can be seen from this that the officialdom of the Han Dynasty is difficult to mix. At that time, there were people who fanned the flames behind the scenes to create contradictions between the two of them, such as Jiang Chong Suwen, who later died. There were also people who explicitly supported the emperor, such as Liu Quyak and Li Guangli, who also died later. There are also those who support the crown prince Liu Ju. Also dead. Ren An's ****** is also dead. It's hard to survive.
Be in it. And how can it not be involved?
When Xue Qing was thinking nonsense, Wei Qing had already taken the order and left. And Emperor Wu was pacing left and right outside the tent. Ban Xiang asked: "Ah Xue, all the people on your list have specific evidence of guilt and even the size of the amount involved." Only this Li Guang. This Li Guang ......"
Xue Qing didn't want to get some incriminating evidence for him, but how could he get it? Pull a cart of gold in the middle of the night and fall in their backyard? That's.
Xue Qing asked rhetorically: "This cavalry general, who has fought all his life, has he gained many gains, and now he is dying." Does His Majesty still expect him to break the Xiongnu Shan Yu? It's almost a rare year, it seems. ”
Emperor Wu smiled embarrassedly: "Ah Xue, don't say it so bluntly, what I'm talking about is like some black-hearted landlord." Useless rags are to be thrown aside. It's not good to compare like that. Don't care if this Li Guang is still useful to me. If you really blame him, I'm afraid it will chill the heart of the Han army. You must know that Li Guangke is the mainstay of the Han army, and his reputation is no less than that of your father. If there is no real evidence, it is difficult. ”
Xue Qing retorted, "Your Majesty. Let's take 10,000 steps back and say, this Li Guangzhen has nothing to do with Li Cai. Won't Your Majesty be suspicious of him, and still rest assured that the Southern Army will be handed over to him to be in charge? ”
The emperor blackened his face. Does he believe in Li Guang? He didn't believe anyone. Initiating madness, I don't even believe in myself. The emperor frowned and said, "Then do you have evidence or not?" ”
Xue Qing said: "There is no evidence of the crime, but there are a lot of clues. If you want to use your hands and feet on the property to and from Weiyang Palace, how can you not go through the guards. Is this something that a few hundred people in charge of can do? That day. Li Cai's people actually blocked the nine gates and prevented the peasants who were buying vegetables from entering the city. Does this mean that there is no connection between him and the Han army? Last night, the concubine fought back. Resistance was met throughout the city. Especially at the city gate, the news did not spread outside the city for four hours after the incident. Could this be that he, Li Cai, was originally born in the Han Army. Could he not know the importance of this? Hanako, who asked for food, also knew how to find a wall to lean on. There are no sharp weapons on him. He dared to kill and suddenly became angry. Dare to commit such a big case? ”
Emperor Wu had a headache, rubbed his eyebrows and said: "You are talking about it, you are still chasing the wind and catching shadows, what I want is criminal evidence, criminal evidence, do you understand." ”
Xue Qing said: "What if there is evidence of guilt, what if there is no evidence of guilt." Even if it is like this, Li Caizhi's greed is well known. But will the emperor tell the world the truth? ”
The emperor looked at Xue Qing strangely, how could this little girl's political sense of smell be so sensitive, indeed, there is a natural contradiction between the emperor and the prime minister. The cabinet bachelor system of the Ming Dynasty, the military aircraft system of the Qing Dynasty, and the Tang Dynasty, the prime minister is not called the prime minister, but the Fengge Luantai Pingzhangshi, which is only three products. The Song Dynasty called the left and right servants to shoot. No matter what you call it, it's the prime minister's business. Even when it comes to the Beiyang government, there is still a dispute between the government and the court, and at first glance, isn't it the emperor and the prime minister fighting?
The prime minister is the head of a hundred officials, and his power is boundless. Even the emperor's ideas must be implemented through the prime minister. Then there is an inherent contradiction between the imperial power and the political power. Throughout the dynasties, although the prime minister is a very good minister, there are really not many good results.
Political struggle is one thing, but corruption is another. No wonder the emperor's new policy (in fact, it is a dead money) is struggling, it turns out that the prime minister is behind it.
But you can't do that. The prime minister is the head of the hundred officials and the most important official. Such a person is actually a bad person. What do you make those who do things under him think, what do you make the people think of the emperor? Improper hiring? Blind? Fooling around?
So if not very necessary. The emperor will definitely use some other excuse to get rid of Li Cai. Instead of justifiably pressing the charges on him.
So, the question is, since you won't be convicted of this crime, then the evidence of the crime is not very important, isn't it?
Emperor Wu waved his hand and said, "Don't say it, don't say it, I will tell you that this Li Guang, if there is no real evidence, I will not touch him." If you rely on my temperament, I don't know how many times this Li Guang's stinky temper has died. But do you know what the big picture is, do you know what I'm trying to make money for? Do you know that I rely on your father so much? Why the hell dote on your husband so much. ”
Xue Qing sighed and said, "The concubine knows." ”
Emperor Wu scolded: "Since you know, then don't think about it, at this time, will I move Li Guang?" As long as he doesn't oppose me, as long as he fights the Huns. I don't care about anything else. Even if it is Li Cai, he told me at this moment that he would make up for his mistakes and lead the troops to fight the Huns, and I could spare his life, do you know it. What are one or two corrupt officials? Do you know what it means to fight the Xiongnu to the people of our Han Dynasty? Do you even know? ”
Xue Qing was really speechless. Is this Emperor Wu evil in Nima or something. Fascinated by it, he had to fight the Huns. Could it be that Li Guang really can't get rid of this, right? Why? This time, the emperor has a temper, and at least tens of thousands of people will be killed, so why can't he bring those two people.
This fire, if it doesn't burn Li Guang's two masters, then Xue Qing will be in vain this time.
Although in terms of costs and benefits, the less you pay, the more you get, many times more, there is no need to take such a big risk. At first, it was a bit of a duck on the shelf. Later, I felt that this fraud case really had little to do with me. Although nominally he is a big Changqiu.
Later, when the investigation clues pointed to Li Cai, Xue Qing was instantly excited, if it weren't for Li Cai to pull Li Guang off the horse, Xue Qing would not have been too lazy to make such a big deal.
Even Li Cai is really ready to let people set fire to Shaofu.
Xue Qing was really unwilling, and decided to say a few more words, even if she couldn't get rid of Li Guang, she would have to leave a gap between the monarch and the ministers: "Your Majesty, the heart of defense is indispensable." Now that there is already a problem. Then ......" (To be continued.) )
