Chapter 158: River East Wind Cloud (5)
"Well said! That's a good point! In a flat voice, showing his edge, Liu Chong's eyebrows seemed to be gloomy, and he muttered in his mouth: "No wonder the Son of Heaven values you so much, when you are less than 26 years old, you will be entrusted with the palace in front of you, and you will be loyal and courageous, it is enough!" ”
Liu Chong's tone seemed to be a little sour, and Zhao Kuangyin took the opportunity to say: "King Qiyu, the last general will come north on the order of His Majesty, select the virtuous and brave, and enrich the Beijing division, and need the cooperation of the king and the generals of Hedong. ”
Glancing at Zhao Kuangyin, Liu Chongpi smiled without smiling: "That's nature, doing things for the Son of Heaven and the court is the duty of a courtier, why bother?" ”
"The king understands the righteousness, and the last general admires it!" Zhao Kuangyin complimented, and then said: "The privy mission, don't dare to slack off." I don't know when the king will be able to provide the military registration and battle book, concentrate the soldiers, and select the last general? ”
Seeing this, Liu Chonghe smiled: "This Zhao Duyu is waiting, he is really a cadre of the imperial court, and he is really resolute!" ”
I don't know what Liu Chong is happy about, he seems to appreciate Zhao Kuangyin very much, and the officials in Hedong who are present laugh more together, and they laugh for a while.
Liu Chongze waved his hand and said: "Don't rush this matter, Gu has already ordered to gather Lan, Xian, Liao, Shi and other state soldiers, and all the soldiers and horses in Hedong are gathered in Jinyang for the general to choose from!" ”
Liu Chong's words fell, Zhao Kuangyin glanced at Liu Chong, and in the tiger's eyes, there was a touch of deep thought. Before he could agree, he heard Liu Chong say again: "General Zhao has come all the way, the carriage and horses are tired, it is better to drink some wine and eat some meat first, no matter how important the official business is, you can't go hungry!" Lonely, I am here to wash the dust for you, everyone raise a glass and toast to General Zhao together! ”
"King Xie!" Zhao Kuangyin remained silent and said respectfully.
"Tell me, how about the forbidden army? Is there any abnormality? After the banquet was over, Liu Chong summoned several henchmen to the study again and asked Li Rongdao.
In the hall, Li Cheng saw that Liu Chong admired Zhao Kuangyin a lot, and his face was full of appreciation, and he was jealous in his heart, and he was quite unconvinced. At this time, he asked, and immediately said: "The last general looks at it, the forbidden army from the north, but the armor is bright and the banner is clear, other than that, it is not enough." The last general will monitor along the road, and he will not dare to speak out for fear of persecution. That Zhao Kuangyin, in the hall said wildly, but he was loyal and upright, just to gain fame, don't worry about the king! ”
Liu Chong frowned slightly, and said: "Looking at Zhao Kuangyin alone, the strange god is like electricity, neither humble nor arrogant, very human!" ”
"Under the order of only five hundred heat, the last general can execute it!" Li Cheng said confidently.
Hearing his words, Liu Chong couldn't help but bow his head, thinking about it. According to the information he received, the imperial court also issued decrees before and after, transferred officials, and selected strong people, except for letting Governor Fan Zhen depose and Zhao Kuangyin came north to select troops, there was no action.
Such a situation made Liu Chong wonder if he had overreacted.
However, the generals who selected the troops have arrived, and Fan Zhen has not been soft enough to dispose of so many Hedong officials, without saving face at all. Moreover, the east side of the river has moved to this extent, and the arrow from the string is irretrievable.
"Send someone to monitor the five hundred forbidden troops of the lonely general, and don't let them go out of the barracks!" Liu Chong commanded solemnly.
When Li Gang heard the order, he couldn't help but suggest: "King, why don't you just disarm him and detain him!" ”
Before Liu Chong could react, Zheng Heng hurriedly spoke out to stop him: "No, after all, I haven't torn my face with the imperial court, and Zhao Kuangyin and others have not acted aggressively, and they act rashly, I am afraid that they will be truthful!" ”
Faced with Zheng Hui's admonition that could not stand scrutiny, Liu Chong didn't think much about it, and asked him: "Is the recital for the Son of Heaven ready?" ”
"I'm about to ask the king to read and correct!" Zheng Heng took out a yellow silk from the sleeve of his robe.
Zheng Heng for Liu Chong drafted, first describe the feelings of uncles and nephews, and then express the hard work of guarding Hedong, and then express his own exploits in founding the country, of course, the main purpose of this book is to ask the Son of Heaven Liu Chengyou to surrender the edict, to the Hedong states to feudalize. Moreover, he also asked lightly, why did the outsiders of the Zhao family seal them with Yan Land?
After Liu Chong finished reading it, he intuitively felt that this book was full of self-expression, and it simply spoke to his heart. With a hint of joy on his face, he said to Zheng Heng: "When all the armies gather in Jinyang, I will send this book to Tokyo." If the Son of Heaven agrees, then all is well; If it is not allowed, it means that the court is unkind and unrighteous first, and it cannot be alone. ”
"The king is wise!" Zheng Hui complimented.
"In addition, send people to urge the Cao Lan army and the Liaozhou soldiers, just say that the court angels, wait for a long time!" Liu Chong said with a sly smile and looked at Zheng Heng: "The imperial court wants to select the strong, so as to summon them, they are famous and righteous." With this wisdom, it is worthy of being a lonely arm! ”
"It is the duty of a minister to share worries for the king!" Zheng Heng looked very humble.
……
Outside the city of Jinyang South City, there is a thick female wall next to it, and the camp is for the forbidden army to be stationed. Zhao Kuangyin went out of the city and returned to the camp, swept the Hedong Ya soldiers of the "Sancai Gong Guard", and couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "The guards are really tight!" ”
"Du Yu waits, there are guests in the camp!" Hearing that Zhao Kuangyin was returning to the camp, Han Lingkun breathed a sigh of relief, greeted him, and whispered to him.
"Divide the whole camp into three offices, take turns on duty, and do not relax negligently!" This time, Zhao Kuangyin's tone was a little solemn.
"Yes!"
The visitor in the camp is naturally Li Shaoyou, as the "Hedong Affair", the plenipotentiary envoy of the Son of Heaven, Zhao Kuangyin does not dare to slack off.
But seeing that it was safe and stable, Zhao Kuangyin still couldn't help but be surprised: "The camp is everywhere, the guards are tight, and it is full of eyeliner, why did the county prince appear here?" ”
Looking at this young general, who had recently become famous in the court, Li Shaoyou chuckled and said, "General Zhao, have you forgotten what your father does?" To put it bluntly, there are a lot of soldiers outside the camp, although the precautions are said, but I see nothing as nothing, and I can come and go freely! ”
"Your Majesty is secretly coming north as a county prince, leading the overall situation, and it will be done!" Zhao Kuangyin arched his hand and complimented.
"Polite words, you don't need to say more!" Li Shaoyou said: "It was Liu Chong who actually let you out of the city and return to camp, which surprised me." ”
"Perhaps, the king of Taiyuan thinks that the end will not be a cause for concern!" Zhao Kuangyin said: "Fan Xianggong, he was left in the city!" ”
"The safety of Fan Gong should still be guaranteed, and you will be the same as you, inside and outside the city, which can also make our Uncle Liu Huang feel more at ease." Li Shaoyou said.
Bowing slightly, Zhao Kuangyin thought for a while and said: "On the banquet, the end will be tested by the matter of selecting generals, and the king of Taiyuan has ordered that the army of Hedong be gathered in Jinyang under the system of the imperial court to prepare for selection." The last general thought that the king of Taiyuan gathered troops, and he was afraid that he would have the intention of coercing the state soldiers into chaos, so he had to guard against it. Once it succeeds, it will set off a rebellion, and the consequences will be unimaginable. ”
"I know this, and this policy is still my advice!" Li Shaoyou smiled lightly, with a smile on his face.
Zhao Kuangyin frowned slightly, frowned lightly, thought for a while, thoughtful. Raising his eyes, he looked at this Wude envoy who was about the same age as himself, and said: "It seems that the county prince is already in the hands of Zhizhu, and the situation in Hedong is under control?" ”
Li Shaoyou looked at Zhao Kuangyin and asked, "Before coming north, how did Your Majesty explain to you?" ”
Zhao Kuangyin said: "If the king of Taiyuan is ordered to obey the system, then he can select elite soldiers and complete the privy mission." ”
"Now that things are safe, Liu Chongfei will not violate the system, and he will go against the court!" Li Shaoyou answered.
Zhao Kuangyin didn't think about it, and said seriously: "Then the situation will be broken, improvised, assist the county prince, and eliminate the trouble!" ”
Saying that, Zhao Kuangyin arched his hand: "Right now, the disaster is just around the corner, and the last general will definitely do his best to assist the county prince and live up to His Majesty's mission!" ”
Glancing at Zhao Kuangyin, Li Shaoyou couldn't help but sigh in his heart, Your Majesty knows people.
Li Shaoyou said solemnly: "My father is not polite to you, the five hundred forbidden troops you led are of great use, and at the critical moment, it must be a final word!" ”
"Please give me orders!" Zhao Kuangyin has nothing to say.
"Let me ask you, with 500 soldiers, it is possible to break through and control the palace?" Li Shaoyou's words were almost sharp.
Listening to his words, you can guess his intentions, but Zhao Kuangyin didn't have a hot head, so he responded casually and fell into deep thought.
