Chapter 357: Confrontation (4)
The intentions of Liu Zhigu and Liu Zhongyuan, everyone present already understood, it's very simple, don't you Yiwang want Wuzhou's territory and military power? Okay, here you go, but your territory and military power in Hedong also have to be handed over, maybe the king of Qi won't get any benefit from it, but your wing king will definitely not be better.
Seeing that Zhao Zhi's face was obviously moved, Yiwang's mood suddenly became heavy, and he had a deep anxiety, Hedong is the foundation of his painstaking management for many years, and it is where his courage to go against the wind lies, if he loses Hedong, what ability and qualifications do he have to fight for what he desires?
The ministers who supported the Wing King, seeing that the situation was unfavorable, many people wanted to speak and stopped, eager to try, and wanted to stand up and speak, but in the end, they still endured, there are already four ministers in the political hall who have spoken out, and they are now involved, which will only lead to more people being involved, and then form a large-scale controversy, and Liu Zhigu, Liu Zhongyuan and Li Zhong are very close, under the condition that the Yang family remains neutral, their strength in the court is far stronger than Xiao Zheng, Xiao Zheng does not want to expand the situation, It didn't do him any good.
Liu Zhigu and Liu Zhongyuan's words, Zhao Zhi listened to it, and was also moved, after Zhao Shuo, the king of Chu, returned from inspecting Jiangnan, he reported Zhao Bai'an's situation in detail, and Zhao Zhi was dissatisfied with this, but this dissatisfaction was only aimed at some flaws in Zhao Bo'an's character and the chaos of his private life, and there was no doubt about his loyalty.
Although Zhao Bai'an is the prince and also surnamed Zhao, his surname was given by Pingzong later, and he has no blood relationship with the Zhao royal family, which makes it impossible for many things to happen, so Zhao Zhi is very relieved of Zhao Bai'an, and Zhao Bai'an has been sitting in Jiangnan for many years, and he has always been respectful and loyal to the court and Zhao Zhi, and has repaid Zhao Zhi's kindness.
But there are some things to look at from two aspects, Zhao Zhi is relieved that Jiangnan is because there is Zhao Baian there, but how old is Zhao Baian this year? People who are almost sixty, once he becomes a leader, who should Jiangnan hand over? Anyway, the group of people under Zhao Bo'an, including his sons, Zhao Zhi didn't trust any of them, or rather, the trust in his heart was far less than Zhao Bo'an, how could Zhao Zhi rest assured that Jiangnan would be handed over to them, so there were some things that Zhao Zhi had already thought about in the future.
In the past two years, Zhao Bo'an's two sons, two sons-in-law, and several confidant generals have been transferred back to the capital or to other places by Zhao Zhi for various reasons.
The potential threat to Jiangnan has been removed, and Zhao Zhi is ready to let Zhao Baian work in Jiangnan for a few years, and he is not in a hurry to transfer him away, but Liu Zhigu and Liu Zhongyuan's words made Zhao Zhi quite moved, and he suddenly had an idea, let Li Xun go to Jiangnan, Zhao Baian go to Hedong, Yiwang go to Longyou, each side is a good layout.
Li Zhong stood up at this time and said: "Your Majesty, transfer Zhao Bai'an to Hedong, and then use Zhao Cheng and Huang to assist, the land of Hedong should be foolproof." ”
Zhao Zhi nodded, this personnel arrangement is really good.
"Li Zhong, Zhao Cheng has served in Anbei for many years, and he was suddenly transferred to Hedong, is he used to it?"
Li Zhong said with a smile: "The duty of a military general is to command soldiers and horses, and there is no difference between Anbei and Hedong." ”
Zhao Cheng was Li Zhong's personal soldier at the earliest, and followed him for decades, and can be said to be Li Xun's confidant.
In the whole Anbei, in addition to Li Zhong, there are several generals with high prestige, such as Li Zhong's son Li Wei, the deputy envoy of Jiedu, the governor of Chizhou, Hong Chenghao, and Zhao Cheng, after Li Zhong left, Ma Wu took over the post of envoy of Anbei Jiedu, the military general is different from the civil official, the military general wants absolute command and authority, so no matter which general, to any party, the first thing to do is to eliminate dissidents and install their own cronies, Ma Wu is not excluded, but he is afraid of Li Zhong's prestige, and his means are naturally not too prosperous.
Zhao Cheng's biggest advantage is that he is brave in battle and not afraid of death, but his shortcomings are also very obvious, he is not good at interpersonal relationships, his personality is too violent, and he likes to scold people, especially with Li Zhong's eldest son Li Wei, who has the worst relationship.
In the early years, one of Li Wei's concubines was mistakenly killed by Zhao Cheng for some reason, for this reason, Li Wei once assassinated Zhao Cheng with a sword, the latter thought that he was not wrong, and fought back blatantly, breaking Li Wei's appearance, since then, the two have formed a mortal enemy, several fights, and finally Li Zhong came forward and forcibly pressed down, Li Wei and Zhao Cheng were barely reconciled, but the relationship is good or bad, then there is no need to say more.
After Ma Wu took office as the envoy of Anbei Jiedu, he suppressed a group of people and promoted a group of people, Zhao Cheng is Li Zhong's old man, he doesn't look at the face of the monk to see the face of the Buddha, it is said that Ma Wu will not move Zhao Cheng's mind, the bad is bad, Ma Wu in order to control the military power of Anbei very much, Li Wei is very important, his deputy envoy of Anbei Jiedu, or Ma Wu wrote to Zhao Zhi several times, and tried his best to get it, the relationship between the two can be described as very hot.
There are many virtuous people around the superiors, but there are also many villains, Li Wei may not be a villain, but he has a personal enmity with Zhao Cheng, in front of Ma Wu, how can he say good things about Zhao Cheng, so come and go, Hong Chenghao and a group of Li Zhong's most trusted old people have been reused, but Zhao Cheng has been left aside, squeezed out, and has become the target of suppression, of course, looking at Li Zhong's face, Ma Wu will not do too much, but some small means are inevitable, Zhao Cheng's life in Anbei, how can it be better?
For this reason, Zhao Cheng wrote to Li Zhong several times, telling the resentment in his heart, what could Li Zhong do? On the one hand, he is a subordinate who has followed him for many years, and on the other hand, he is his own son, and no one can help him, in the end, Li Zhong can only comfort Zhao Cheng with good words, and said that if there is a chance, he will be transferred out of Anbei, and he will not suffer from that wretchedness.
Zhao Zhi nodded and said with a smile: "Zhao Cheng is your old subordinate, and you naturally know more about his abilities than me." ”
Speaking of which, anyone can see that Zhao Zhi was obviously moved by Liu Zhigu and Liu Zhongyuan's proposal, and quite agreed, and Zhao He's face was difficult to see, but he couldn't say anything now, after all, he had been in Hedong for seven or eight years, and now he was in the court to discuss personnel transfers and arrangements normally, if Zhao He spoke out against it, it was easy to give others an illusion, Hedong is my territory, outsiders can't go in casually, others Zhao He doesn't care, but if Zhao Zhi has this illusion, it will be a big trouble, So he could only keep his mouth shut, but his eyes were looking at Zhan Tai Yi Heng and Xiao Zheng from time to time, with an anxious look in his eyes.
Xiao Zheng said at this time: "Your Majesty, it's not too early, some unfinished topics, should you leave them for discussion next time?" ”
Zhao Zhi smiled, glanced at Zhao He, nodded and said, "The matter between Hedong and Wuzhou will be discussed next time." ”
With that, Zhao Zhi got up and left.
"Scattered."
Liu Congxi loudly announced the dissolution of the dynasty, and then quickly followed Zhao Zhi to leave.
"Congratulations to Your Majesty."
The ministers bowed down and watched Zhao Zhi leave.
Liu Zhigu and Liu Zhongyuan glanced at each other, didn't say anything, didn't look at Zhao He on the side, turned around and left slowly.
Xiao Zheng glanced at Zhao He, his brows were also furrowed, there were many people here, and he couldn't say anything, so he also walked away.
The ministers left one after another, in groups of three or five, and while walking, they talked in a low voice, and today's court meeting was very exciting for them.
Zhao He's expression also returned to normal at this moment, glanced at Qi King Zhao Xun, and then turned to leave.
