Chapter 425: Leave Beijing as soon as possible
After Xu Youzhen left satisfied, Liu Zi'an hurriedly said: "Zongzhen shouldn't have agreed to come down just now!" Once Zongzhen and Shi Heng and others write together to protect the prince, it will be equivalent to making a stand in this battle for the throne, and it will be difficult for our Shandong Town to maneuver in the future! Moreover, Your Majesty will also regard our Shandong Town as a thorn in the side and a thorn in the flesh! ”
Liu Juntao sighed and said, "Why don't I know this truth? However, now that the situation between the DPRK and China is already like this, I cannot afford to continue to delay it any longer, otherwise we will not only be unable to maintain neutrality at that time, but will also be completely isolated by all parties in the DPRK and China! ”
In fact, Liu Juntao has another reason in his heart, that is, according to the development of the current situation, the orthodox emperor of the Taishang Emperor will definitely be like the trend of history, with the help of Shi Heng and others, there will be a thrilling success in the resumption, if Liu Juntao does not show his attitude clearly at this time, then Shandong Town may really be unlucky in the future!
Of course, Liu Juntao can't say this reason, and the internal reason can only be known by himself.
Liu Zi'an nodded, and felt that the reason Liu Juntao said was indeed reasonable, but he was still full of worries about the future of Shandong Town.
At this time, Liu Juntao thought of what Guo Muying said in the letter: Once the reorganization of the Gyeonggi garrison is over, we must leave the capital as soon as possible!
"Madame is right, this matter must be prepared as soon as possible!"
So, Liu Juntao asked Liu Zi'an to immediately notify Tang Yu to rush back, and prepare to discuss with the two about returning to Shandong.
"What do you mean by the town, we should leave immediately?"
Liu Juntao said in a deep voice: "Yes! Let's prepare in advance, after the excerpt of the prince in this town, we will return to Shandong as soon as possible, so as not to have too many dreams at night! ”
The next day, Tang Yu rushed back to the Fengtai camp, and Liu Zi'an also happened to be in the Chinese army's tent at this time.
When Tang Yu heard that Liu Juntao was going to write a letter to protect the prince, he was also taken aback, and hurriedly said: "Zongzhen, you have to think twice about this matter!" At this time, writing is equivalent to standing on the opposite side of His Majesty, which is not good for me! ”
Liu Juntao also said his reasons, and then said: "This town has made up its mind, there is no need to say more!" ”
Tang Yu was silent when he heard this, and no longer insisted, for so many years, Tang Yu had already developed a habit, as long as it was something that Liu Juntao insisted on, he would not strongly oppose it, because in Tang Yu's heart, Liu Juntao was already an omnipotent existence, and any decision would have its own reason, as long as he did things according to the rules!
Then, Liu Juntao asked: "How is the progress of the Ministry of Intelligence and the Ministry of Commerce now?" ”
Liu Zi'an and Tang Yu both said that now the Ministry of Intelligence and the Ministry of Commerce have spread out their stalls in various parts of Gyeonggi, and it can be said that it is progressing smoothly.
In particular, the various industries of the Ministry of Commerce are expected to be open one after another by the end of the year, and they should be able to generate income next year.
On the side of the Ministry of Intelligence, although the affairs of the Ministry of Intelligence were frustrated for a time because of the command of the Beizhen Fusi to send Huang Wu south to Shandong, fortunately, it did not affect the overall situation, but it would just take more time.
Liu Juntao was very satisfied when he heard this, so he said to Liu Zi'an and Tang Yu: "Very good! You also prepare, three days later, the two of you and the last group of recruited talents will go south, you don't have to wait for this town, when this is the end of the matter, this town will go south later. For the follow-up matters in various parts of Gyeonggi, the two of you can arrange for your subordinates to follow up! ”
Liu Zi'an and Tang Yu were taken aback when they heard this, especially Liu Zi'an, who hurriedly asked, "What does Zongzhen mean?" Could it be that when we go south and go back this time, we will encounter some trouble? ”
"Maybe!"
Liu Juntao said in a deep voice: "This is just the town's speculation, and it can't be counted." However, for the sake of insurance, it is best for you and Tang Yu to go back early with the personnel of the Ministry of Intelligence and the Ministry of Commerce. Once nothing can be done in the capital, the town will lead 2,000 soldiers to go directly back to Shandong! Without the followers of the Ministry of Intelligence and the Ministry of Commerce, the town and its officers could be more relaxed. ”
The words have been said here, Liu Zi'an and Tang Yu's faces instantly became very ugly, and the hearts of the two of them also tightened a lot.
After that, the three of them were silent for a while, and the atmosphere in the big tent became a little depressing.
At this time, Liu Juntao asked Tang Yu to invite all the generals of the Gyeonggi garrison, and Liu Juntao was ready to get together with everyone, maybe this time he would return to Shandong from the south, and he and these Gyeonggi generals would have no chance to meet.
Especially for Xu Wei, the deputy general of the Fengtai battalion, Lu Changyi, the chief soldier of Changping Town, and Song Chonggui, the chief soldier of Miyun Town, Liu Juntao is also ready to take another look.
These Gyeonggi generals had close contacts with Liu Juntao during this time, and they also had some friendship with each other, and perhaps these Gyeonggi generals could help Liu Juntao in the future.
Liu Zi'an suggested that Liu Juntao act in secret, and it is best not to feast everyone with great fanfare at this time, so as not to cause extraneous complications.
But Liu Juntao was unmoved and still went his own way.
Two days later, Liu Juntao set up a banquet at the Fengtai camp and gathered with more than 20 generals of various departments of the Gyeonggi garrison.
Early the next morning, Liu Juntao hosted a banquet for the generals of the Gyeonggi garrison, which was learned by Emperor Jingtai, and many imperial historians in the court also heard the news and began to make noise in the court, preparing to impeach Liu Juntao for "encircling military generals with bad intentions".
At this time, because Huang Wu, the commander of Beizhen Fusi, had already gone south to Shandong, and Emperor Jingtai had already sent another commander to take office, and he firmly controlled Jinyiwei, so it was quite easy to find out about these things.
Emperor Jingtai looked at the secret music in his hand, and his heart was churning, but he didn't expect Liu Juntao to openly feast the generals of the Gyeonggi garrison at this critical moment!
"This Liu Juntao is really daring!"
In Emperor Jingtai's heart, Liu Juntao is either arrogant and domineering, deliberately demonstrating to himself, or a martial artist, without any political acumen, only by temperament, and acting in the DPRK and China.
After thinking about it, Jingtai Disi thought of Liu Juntao's repeated military exploits in the past, and in his impression, Liu Juntao still belonged to a military general who could fight well, and he did not have any political acumen.
Therefore, after careful consideration, Emperor Jingtai contacted the generals of the Gyeonggi garrison for this banquet, and finally decided that Liu Juntao was just a martial artist, and he was reckless in his actions, and he had no intentions at all.
A few days later, Emperor Jingtai put these things behind him and concentrated on dealing with the matter of deposing the crown prince.
And the impeachment of those imperial historians in the court, Emperor Jingtai also ignored them, turned a deaf ear, and ignored them at all.
At this time, Liu Zi'an and Tang Yu were ready to go south, and before bidding farewell to Liu Juntao, Liu Zi'an inquired about the banquet for the generals of the Gyeonggi garrison, and thought that Liu Juntao should not act ostentatiously at this time.
Liu Juntao smiled and said: "It is precisely because of the critical situation that this town has to act like this, and Your Majesty can be completely relieved after knowing it!" ”
Liu Zi'an and Tang Yu were slightly stunned when they heard this, and then laughed.
After Liu Juntao and the others said goodbye, Liu Zi'an and Tang Yu left the Fengtai camp with a team of more than 100 people and rushed towards Shandong along the official road.
Looking at the distant figures of everyone, Liu Juntao also breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and said secretly: "Now I must also find an opportunity to leave the capital as soon as possible, all the soldiers must be on standby at any time, and the bloody storm in the capital is coming." ”
Liu Juntao thought of Yu Qian, the secretary of the Ministry of War, sighed heavily, and said secretly: "It's a pity, Yu Shaobao's efforts are probably going to be in vain!" ”
