Chapter 87 Who is the chess piece and who is the chess player?
Emperor Li looked at Shang Shuling, who was kneeling on the ground and buried his head, and the look of hatred in his eyes was undoubted.
This guy was still picked up by himself, and at that time he saw that this guy was quite knowledgeable, and he was still the illegitimate son of a down-and-out family, helpless, coupled with the outstanding knowledge among his peers, so he thought of supporting a guy who belonged to his own faction to help him relieve the pressure left by those old ministers of the previous dynasty.
It took him a long time to trade a lot of things with those old guys, so he gave this guy a position of Shang Shuling, the picture is to make this guy his right-hand man, after all, Shang Shuling's position and power, with the brocade guard firmly held in his hand, then his authority will be more solid.
Who would have thought that this waste would reveal his true nature not long after he took office, not only did he become the most sloppy Shang Shuling in the history of Nanli, but even he became a joke in the mouths of those old guys.
Emperor Li took a deep breath, barely stabilized his breath, adjusted his state, and said to the young Shang Shuling
"Prepare an edict to transfer the Shangzhou garrison in Jinling City, which was originally scheduled to be redressed, and advance the sequence of refitting to the first sequence, and after changing clothes, immediately go to the front line of Shangzhou and wait for the next instructions of King Zhou."
Although Shang Shuling's head was still buried in the ground, it did not affect his trembling body and nodding his head up and down after hearing the words of Emperor Li.
Emperor Li's eyes glanced at this young Shang Shuling with disgust, his sleeves were clenched, his fists were clenched, and his tone paused and continued to command
"Spread the edict to the three southern states, and the garrison troops of each state dispatched the elites of the two armies to the Jinling military camp to wait for my will, in addition, added the title of Ji Wuying as the rear general, temporarily led the six armies transferred to Jinling from the three southern states, integrated the six armies, and gave the title to the group army, the first army of the Northern Expeditionary Force."
Feng Buping heard Emperor Li's words, his eyes narrowed slightly, he was stunned for a moment, turned his head to look at Emperor Li, and happened to see that Emperor Lidi was also looking at himself, a meaningful smile, and then Emperor Lidi pressed a palm on Feng Buping's shoulder, his demeanor changed suddenly, and he gave the last will to the young Shangshu with some high spirits.
"Finally, Wang Shufeng Buping is crowned as the honorary marshal of the First Army of the Northern Expeditionary Force, and has the right to cut first and then play, in addition, Ai Song is transferred to the first military captain of the Northern Expeditionary Force, directly under Feng Buping, in addition, Shangshu ordered you to write a letter for me later, and send it to the king of Shangzhou Zhou quickly, well, allow the two horses to send the letter."
After Emperor Li said this, he bent down, hooked Shang Shuling's chin with one hand, and gently picked up Shang Shuling's head, and in an instant, the two looked at each other, looking at the look of fear in Shang Shuling's eyes, and Emperor Li asked in a gentle tone
"Have you written it all?"
Shang Shuling nodded violently, withdrew his hand from Emperor Li, then stood up and said one last word to Shang Shuling
"Then go to the edict, pass the edict as soon as you finish the edict, there must be no mistakes, after doing these things, go to wait outside the palace, and I will call you in to write a letter for me at that time."
When Shang Shuling heard this, he crawled out of the hall as if he had been amnestied, and after leaving the hall far away, he pressed his palm on his chest and panted violently, he was really frightened by the posture of the emperor, for fear that the emperor would behead himself.
In the main hall, Feng Buping lowered his head again, fiddling with the chessboard that had already been played, and he didn't raise his head, but asked with a little sarcasm in the fluttering tone of Emperor Li
"My Majesty, your arrangement has opened the old man's eyes."
Emperor Li naturally heard the sarcasm in Feng Buping's words, but at this time, in his ears, the words that sounded particularly harsh in the past were very pleasant at this time.
Emperor Li slowly walked to the other corner of the chessboard, bent down, picked up the sunspot at Tianyuan with one hand, chuckled at the corner of his mouth, and placed the sunspot in front of Feng Buping, and then got up and walked out of the hall, leaving only a sentence that could not hear emotion into Feng Buping's ears.
"In this game, Uncle Wang, you lost."
Feng Buping's ears came to this words, his expression froze, and then his eyes swept over the chessboard again, and he saw the sunspot that had been changed, his eyes suddenly lit up, and then he turned to look at the back of the emperor who was gradually moving away, and muttered to himself
"It's broken, old man, or it's just a pawn on the chessboard."
The hand of the emperor did surprise Feng Buping, but it didn't take long for him to react to the emperor's intentions.
Now in the cognition of the countries, he is still a sick man who can't afford to be poisoned, and at this time, Emperor Li suddenly temporarily formed a new army, although its military leader currently seems to be served by the royal family worshipper Ji Wuying.
If just such a piece of news spreads, the two countries will only invariably feel that Nanli is guarding against the Central Plains countries, so they will temporarily form a new army, after all, in terms of their current situation in the two places, the opponents that both sides should find are almost the same, if Nanli will feel that the battlefield on the east and west lines will collapse and want to send reinforcements, it will not be picked at such a juncture.
In addition, not to mention the current Nanli army masters on the eastern and western battlefields, those are the two famous commanders of Nanli, how can there be a possibility of collapse, at most, it will only be because Zhou Dunyi's military strength is stretched and he will send some reinforcements.
Therefore, Emperor Li issued an edict to let the garrison army originally transferred to Jinling City to change their clothes immediately rush to Shangzhou after changing their clothes.
This false move also made Dongxun feel at ease, and he would not feel that the new army in Nanli was formed against him.
And Xikun, I won't worry about these at all, anyway, I have a lot of soldiers to die, even if you transfer two more group armies to Nanli, it will be similar in our eyes, not to mention, Xikun has such a trump card as the black-robed saint-monarch in his hand, with the intelligence of the black-robed saint-monarch, he will definitely guess that the target of this new army is not them Xikun and Dongxun.
Nanli, this new army, must be formed in response to the coalition forces of the Central Plains countries that may make a comeback again.
But just the name of Ji Wuying, that can't scare anyone, after all, Ji Wuying's fame is not big even in Nanli, and only a few of the three southern kingdoms know that Ji Wuying is an old man with good light skills, not to mention what the Central Plains countries know about this old man.
Therefore, after learning this information, the black-robed Saint Monarch would only sneer, and said a few words about leaving the emperor with a stupid move, sending an old man who can only escape to be the military master, and the hundred generals who left the south will not let you use it?
Naturally, even if the Central Plains countries did not know Ji Wuying's background at the beginning, they would later learn about Ji Wuying's various intelligence records through the intelligence sources of Xikun and Dongxun.
However, the second genius of the emperor is to crown Feng Buping as the honorary marshal of the new army.
Whether it is an honor or a marshal, this is a move that makes Feng Buping have to praise the emperor.
If he just crowned himself as a marshal, although in the eyes of the countries, it would be Nanli who wanted to use his sword saint name to intimidate the Central Plains countries, after all, the shadow he left at that time was not only fresh in the memory of the Xikun Kingdom, but also those guys in the Central Plains countries were not bad.
But if only one marshal is added, ordinary people in all countries will feel that this is just Nanli's fox and tiger might, and a guy of the level of the black-robed Saint Monarch will only say that Nanli has nothing to do now, but when they react later, a cautious guy like the black-robed Saint Monarch will leave an idea in his heart.
Assuming that the toxins on his body have been alleviated and he can make a move, at that time, regardless of whether it is said by the white-faced scholar or not, it will not work, and his black-robed Holy Monarch will definitely not hesitate to summon the five major generals to communicate with the gods of the underworld to investigate his uneven situation.
At that time, all the truth will come to the surface, and this plan, which is about to reach its climax, will unfortunately fail.
Emperor Li naturally also took this into account, so he added the word honor to the identity of the marshal, and before that, he also set the commander of the new army.
Such a smoke bomb was thrown out, and the black-robed Holy Monarch naturally didn't think about it so much, after all, even if he was as cautious as him, he could only find nothing wrong with Nanli's order, and at most, he would only ridicule Ji Wuying's appointment as the military master.
After all, in this era, the title of honorary marshal is basically dispensable, and all countries will use this title to symbolically intimidate and suppress enemy countries, which is a means that everyone is accustomed to, after all, this kind of honorary marshal, when his own army goes out, will basically stay in the rear, be a mascot, and will not do anything.
Even if there is an exception, the honorary marshal goes out with the army, and the black-robed saint monarch will not suspect the possibility that Feng Buping can make a move, but after getting the news, he will look forward to the alliance of the Central Plains countries day and night to design and kill Feng Buping.
And such a one-handed arrangement of the emperor, in Feng Buping's view, is naturally clear at a glance, after learning that his poisoning was just a game set up by Ji Wuying and Zhou Dunyi, he didn't think much about forming a new army, and let Ji Wuying, who was also a participant in the plan, serve as the army master on the bright side, and then his honorary marshal secretly went out with the army, and the next thing this new army had to do was the way to break the game.
couldn't help but feel uneven, and Feng Buping's evaluation of the emperor raised it by a few points again.
At least in terms of this means, this former emperor is much better than the original princes.
Even if he is a guy who thinks he is a chess player, after leaving the emperor to take over the game, he can only become a chess piece on the chessboard.
Just like this chess game, even if he laid an ambush on all sides, the killing momentum has been completed, and the opponent is surrounded heavily, but when he came back to his senses, he realized that the plan he had planned with his heart was just a pediatrician to crack and successfully take over the game in the eyes of the other party.
Yourself, is it really old?
Feng Buping smiled helplessly, thinking to himself, under the leadership of this Emperor Li, it shouldn't be too bad to leave the south, right?
That's it, what does the old man want to do with these trivial things, anyway, now they have become chess pieces, let's talk to the old man Ji Wuying.
After thinking about it, Feng Buping sprinkled a few white pieces in his hand, and the white pieces fell into different directions on the chessboard.
In the blink of an eye, the originally angry killing momentum on the chessboard suddenly dissipated, and in its place, it was just an ordinary chess game.
