Chapter 336 Messenger
"Recently, I heard that the general went east to Zhuo County, punished Luo Yi in Youzhou, and obtained tens of millions of grain and rice from Zhuo County, I don't know what happened?"
Dou Jing is thirty or forty years old, with a white face and a short beard, and he and his younger brother Dou Dan are a little similar in appearance, and the others look completely two people.
This person is very serious, when he speaks, his eyes are very focused, Li Po knows at a glance that this person should be very willing to do things more seriously.
This person's current position is the history of the governor of the state, inspecting the school and the state governor's affairs, Li Po is gradually familiar with the official position, but he has never heard of such a position.
Of course, if you listen to the literal meaning, you will know that this is a long history with the responsibility of supervision, and the meaning of Chen Xiaoyi's concurrently serving as the governor of the Daizhou Marching Army is completely different.
It is estimated that Li Yuan was afraid of his young son Hu Lai, so he arranged such a person by his side, if there is anything to persuade him, if it doesn't work, he can also sue Chang'an.
What I said before was all about business, that is, things within the scope of the edict, Li Po agreed very happily, and the conversation went well.
Dou Jing suddenly added such a sentence, as if questioning, this is too unfriendly.
As before, he looked at Li Po very intently, not happy or angry, like a pool of stagnant water.
A smile bloomed on Li Po's face, he felt malice from this person from the beginning, and he also looked at the other party seriously at this time, and said, "Where did Dou Changshi hear such rumors?" The Youzhou soldiers are powerful, and they are far away in Hebei, how dare I, Li Po, a small commander of the Daizhou march, dare to brush his tiger whiskers? ”
He's clearly bullying people, I'm telling a lie, what can you do with me?
Dou Jing was obviously stunned. I don't need any good words. Immediately speechless.
And in his heart, this one of the rats who stole the important position of the head of the march in Daizhou. also immediately equated with the word shameless.
Speaking of which, Li Po Li Ding'an's name is now in Jinyang, not to mention a household name, it is not much worse, especially the people in the officialdom of Jinyang, who have risen in this remote place in Yunnei, in the past year or two, occupied Mayi and repeatedly defeated the Turks. Now that the characters under the rule of the three northern counties have been accepted, they can't pay attention to it.
Of course, people in these years look at people, and the procedures are similar.
Regardless of your merits and official position, the first thing is to see what your family background is.
A native of Kansai, a student and son-in-law of Cheng Li Jing in Mayi County, well, it's quite a bit of the past. After all, he is already among the Kansai Gate Valves, and he is a person with a background.
Then there was a lot of discussion about what to do with this neighbor to the north.
In the past, it was nothing to be the same Sui minister, but now the emperor has changed. The country name has also been Tang, so the situation has become delicate.
There are hostile people to this Daizhou marching governor who holds the military and political power of the three counties. There are those who despise it, and there are also those who feel that they can get close to it. And the most, in fact, still want to pass on the book to Chang'an. Look at the emperor's meaning and then think about the people in the long run.
As for Dou Jing, as the governor of the state and the governor of the state, he is also the son of the great lord of Kansai, and the royal relatives of several dynasties, his vision is not ordinary Gao Jun, so he naturally does not have a good impression of Li Po.
And Li Yuanji sent him to Daizhou, not his younger brother, which actually has a different flavor in itself.
It's just that what he didn't expect was that he had just made a little trouble here, and he touched such a nail that was neither soft nor hard, but also a scoundrel.
But he is much tougher than Dou Dan. 、
The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and he smiled, "Oh, it's a rumor...... His Royal Highness also said that the grain and grass in Daizhou are piled up, and ordered me to come to Daizhou to raise grain and grass, it seems that I am going to go empty? ”
Li Po's smile remained unchanged, nodded and said sincerely: "Daizhou has experienced repeated wars, the place is ruined, hundreds of thousands of people are waiting to be fed, and His Royal Highness the King of Qi will come to my Daizhou to raise grain...... This rumor is indeed extremely hateful, if His Highness really wants to send a large army to loot and provoke a civil uprising, what if it is good? ”
"Dou Changshi told me the truth, His Highness won't think that I will deceive him when he is young and send troops to discuss it, right?"
You threaten me, and I threaten you, and I don't talk softly.
Dou Dan, in fact, he didn't have much hope for a warlord like Li Po, who had become a separatist situation, and he tried it, and sure enough, he had no respect for the new dynasty at all, and said in his heart, there are still people in Jinyang and Chang'an who speak for this person, and this person is not much different from Li Mi, Wang Shichong, Dou Jiande and others.
It's just that the people are small and the soldiers are outnumbered, and the climate has not yet become too big.
He had a deep disgust here, but what he didn't expect was that the person on the other side of him also began to get tired of Jinyang.
This is not only because of the impact of the status promotion, but also because the Jinyang Li clan is always wary and hostile to the people in the north.
The change in mentality can be said to be a matter of course for Li Po.
Now the affairs of the three counties of Daizhou are disturbed, as if they are a mess that plagues him, and his mood is now very unhappy.
But Jinyang sent such a person to add to the chaos and raise food from Daizhou? Thanks to what you said, if he, Li Po, had eaten a grain sent by Jinyang and received a reinforcement from Jinyang, he wouldn't have said anything.
But over the years, what has the Jinyang Li family done?
Before, even if he had some complaints, he still understood this, the emperor's throne, ambitious and qualified people, if they could fight, they naturally couldn't care about anything else.
But now, he doesn't plan to understand the mentality of these bullshit, there are so many kings and hegemons in the world, you still come to me for trouble, why don't you think there is too little trouble?
In fact, these are all secondary, and in the final analysis, it is just because he has gathered the power of the three counties, and he has felt the threat of Jinyang more and more clearly.
The power is great, and it also means that there are fewer ways to retreat, in the position of the general of Hengan Town, or Ma Yitong, he can still compromise and seek perfection, now, he wants to take a step or two back, but it is not easy.
The clearer and deeper the word Datang is in his heart, the greater the sense of threat in his heart now.
How did Dou Jing know that he had made an extremely stupid mistake.
This person in front of him is a soft and not hard character, if you can be appeased, don't talk about high-ranking officials, maybe as long as you can give him some support, maybe the three northern counties can be smoothly integrated into the territory of the Tang Dynasty.
But if you want to come hard, even threaten and scare, that's really wrong.
In the final analysis, if it weren't for Li Yuanji presiding over military and political affairs in Jinyang, it would be very different in the future, but this is the case, among Li Yuan's three sons now, Li Yuanji is the most thoughtful, but he is also the most irritable.
And so things took a turn for the worse.
Just like at this time, Li Yuanji, the king of Qi, sent Dou Jing to Daizhou to announce the edict, which can no longer be explained by improper employment, but has some deliberate meaning in it.
Dou Jing is a rigid person, and he also has a strong gate valve atmosphere, this is a person who does things, but he is not a good messenger.
Just like now, after only a few sentences, the topic can't go on.
And Dou Jing made a mistake again, he was angry in his heart, coldly gave up, and changed the topic, and this topic was even worse.
"Before leaving, His Royal Highness asked me to bring a message to the general, the general is heroic, the name is passed on to Jindi, His Royal Highness has always respected heroes, thirsty for talent, want to see the general for a long time, now I heard that the general is returning to the west, and I hope that the general will take the time to go to Jinyang with me, and His Royal Highness will be what?"
This is his stereotype, it can also be said to be serious, the next thing, always have to be done step by step, if there is a suitable messenger, it will definitely not be mentioned at this time.
Because that won't lead to anything, and it could have very serious consequences.
This is simply after scolding the mother, and then pulled out the knife to show people, the timid will naturally turn around and run, but when you meet the bold, maybe you can pull out a bigger knife to cut with you.
Obviously, Li Po will definitely not go to the cowardly guy.
He raised his eyebrows slightly, and said in his heart, I am not Liu Bang, and you can't be called Xiang Yu, what kind of Hongmen banquet are you doing? Is this about the posture of life and death?
There are generations and no generations, and there are no generations of speech, which suddenly appeared in his mind.
At the same time, the smile on his face became brighter and brighter, "Then I want to thank His Royal Highness for his kindness, I actually want to meet His Royal Highness King Qi, well, now that it is an eventful autumn, wait for me to take care of it, and then go to Jinyang with Dou Changshi, what do you think?" ”
Dou Jing's eyes froze, obviously this answer was unexpected, and he was shocked, the most impossible thing for him to do?
Then there was a lot of suspicion......
At this time, Li Po had lost interest in talking to this person, he had been entertaining guests very well, and the people sent by the Li family had a good impression of him after they left him.
This time it can be regarded as an exception for Dou Jing, but it is still the same old saying, time has changed, he is now the head of the Daizhou marching army, and there is no need to be so stubborn, especially if you have a long history of the governor's mansion and the state, you really don't know how to write dead words in front of us.
At this time, he smiled and continued: "Dou Changshi is tired from his journey, so let's go and rest first, and then I will wash the dust for Changshi." ”
After speaking, he didn't wait for Dou Jing to say anything, so he ordered: "Come here, send Dou Changshi to the accommodation, so that he can serve him." ”
Sending Dou Jing away, Li Po looked at the edict on the table, pursed his lips, and then ordered, "Come here, go find Chen Taishou, Wen Sima, and Wang Sima to see me." ”
The three of them arrived soon, in fact, they were all waiting, they had already heard the news of Jinyang's arrival, and they all wanted to know what Jinyang had to say.
The three of them came to see Li Po and discussed for more than an hour before they dispersed one after another.
Subsequently, Li Po recruited Luo Shixin, Wang Zhibian, and Liu Jingsheng to arrive.
Dou Jing didn't know that his arrival was not to eliminate the disaster, but to provoke a war immediately. (To be continued.) )
