Chapter 263: What is a loyal minister?

"The ministers are the 2 ministers, and they have been graced by His Majesty, and they have repeatedly entrusted the ministers with important tasks, and the minister's death is not enough to repay the king's kindness."

Since Chai Rong regretted it, whether it was true or not, Li Zhongyi must abide by the way of his courtiers and show his intention to swear allegiance to the death.

Chai Rong just nodded, and did not say too much about Li Zhongyi's surrender attitude. As the king of the Heavenly Empire, Chai Rong didn't know how many times he had to listen to the eulogy of my emperor Shengming every day, and he had already reached the point of numbness.

"What is the purpose of my visit to Jingzhao Mansion this time, you must already know it, right?" Chai Rong played with the jade Yue in his hand and looked at Li Zhongyi interestingly.

Li Zhongyi arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty, more than 10,000 soldiers in Lingzhou, just waiting for the holy edict to be issued." ”

Chai Rong said quietly: "You don't have more than 10,000 soldiers under your command, but you have 5,000 cavalry, no blame, so many cavalry, the combat power is amazing." ”

Li Zhongyi's eyes flashed slightly, the connotation of Chai Rong's words was unfathomable, and he had to deal with it carefully.

"Your Majesty, the slave soldier of the barbarians, wild and untamed, and his combat power is really not to be overestimated." Li Zhongyi didn't see clearly what Chai Rong meant, so he could only choose the most conservative strategy and see if he could cope with the past?

Chai Rong waved his hand and said: "The first emperor has repeatedly warned Yu I when he is in Japan, and only when he knows what he is good can he have a solid foundation. No blame, you relax, I have no intention of taking away your heart. ”

Li Zhongyi is actually not at ease at all, but since Chai Rong said so, he, who is a (long) (Feng courtier), must also take a stand in order to pass the test.

"Wherever His Majesty points to, Weichen will hit wherever he goes."

Facing Chai Rong, who is resourceful and good at using the emperor's mental skills. Li Zhongyi feels that with the same change, it should change. is the best policy.

"Well, when I came to Jingzhao Mansion, as time goes by, the news will inevitably leak. Therefore, the plan to enter Xiazhou must be done early. Chai Rong sighed and said, "If it weren't for the need to coordinate the army. I really want to gallop through the desert with you, thirsty for blood. ”

Li Zhongyi was a little proud in his heart, thinking that he was above the court at the beginning. How much praise did the impassioned song "Man Jianghong" win?

Chai Rong is indeed an anti-captivist in his bones, whether it is a western captive or a northern captive. Chai Rong didn't like it. It will be as soon as it is gone.

Since the establishment of the county system by the Qin Emperor, the concept of the supreme unification of the world has been deeply rooted in the marrow of the male lords of the past dynasties.

There are Qin Huang and Han Wu in the distance, Tang Zong in the near distance, and more than a thousand years later, and Mao Taizu!

Although Confucianism has a lot of dross, it is all over the world. It is not the king's land, and the shore of the land. Could it be that the king's indoctrination is indeed very good.

If it were not for the encouragement of this kind of unified thinking, modern China would have been bullied by the great powers and torn apart, and there would never be a day of rise!

"Your Majesty is the body of ten thousand gold, how can you take risks lightly?" Li Zhongyi persuaded him like this, but he was actually very sympathetic to Chai Rong's situation in his heart.

Before Guo Wei, the Taizu of the Later Zhou Dynasty, summoned Li Chong into the palace and ordered him to bow down to Chai Rong with the courtesy of a courtier in person.

However, Li Chongjin hesitated for a long time and refused to kneel. It wasn't until Guo Wei was furious that Li Chongjin reluctantly recognized Chai Rong as the new master.

After Chai Rong ascended the throne, Li Chongjin looked extremely respectful on the surface, but secretly he had been recruiting troops and horses, and he was doing his best to strengthen his strength.

Who is Chai Rong? He knew that Li Chongjin had different intentions, but he never reacted much. According to Li Zhongyi's speculation, Chai Rong, who has read history books, probably wants to wait for Li Chongjin to rebel first, and then raise troops to destroy him.

However, this Li Chongjin was just recruiting troops, and he never raised the anti-flag.

As a result, the situation between the DPRK and China has become an extremely strange stalemate. Since one side does not oppose it, there is no reason for the other side to immediately poison the hand and eradicate the thorn in the eye and the thorn in the flesh.

Standing in Chai Rong's position, Li Zhongyi also felt that he, the son of a non-Guo family, ascended the throne and became the emperor, and from the perspective of the legal system, his congenital nature was quite insufficient.

If Chai Rong is the son-in-law of Guo Wei, then he will find a reason to kill Li Chongjin, and the important ministers in the court will not overreact.

However, Chai Rong is just Guo Wei's adopted son, and Li Chongjin is Guo Wei's nephew, and he has the blood of the Guo family in his body.

Zhang Yongde's wife is Guo Wei's fourth daughter, Princess Shou'an, which is the bloodline of the Guo family.

Chai Rong got the Guo family out of thin air, but without a good reason, he destroyed the last bloodline of the Guo family, cough, ingratitude, and the bad reputation of madness can be imagined to stick to Chai Rong's body.

From Li Zhongyi's point of view, he felt a little embarrassed for Chai Rong, it was very difficult to do!

Since he couldn't directly kill Zhang Yongde and Li Chongjin, the status of Chai Rong's cronies was not enough to command the army, so Chai Rong had to reluctantly drive the expedition in front of him on all the previous expeditions.

"Your Majesty, the minister rushed to see the driver this time, and he brought someone with him." Li Zhongyi arched his hands and said, "This person is a son of the Fuzhou Fold family, named Mo Jixun. ”

"Fuzhou? Folding? Chai Rong waved the jade Yue in his hand a few times, and then said with a smile, "The Digger and the Eight Departments of the Party are feuds." ”

"No blame, before anyone comes to Fuzhou, I don't want to see him for the time being." Chai Rong didn't say much, but he said it directly, to the point.

Taking the initiative to contact the Zhejia family and sending someone to the door for help are fundamentally different.

Li Zhongyi had long expected that Chai Rong would make this arrangement, so he only took the initiative to mention Mo Jixun, just to register a number here with Chai Rong in advance to attract the attention of Comrade Lao Chai.

The head of the Zhe family, who was nominally a Zhou minister, was a Zhou minister, but in fact, he was a feudal town outside the actual control of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and he needed to be restrained by the emperor of the frontier.

Li Zhongyi blinked and said, "Your Majesty, the minister has a little shallow opinion, when the army and the grain and grass are assembled, maybe you can summon the servants to come to Jingzhao Mansion to discuss matters?" ”

Chai Rong smiled knowingly and said, "This discussion is very good, and I would like to meet for a while, Zhuqing, who is stationed in the northwest." ”

Li Zhongyi thought to himself, didn't Chai Rong quietly come to Jingzhao Mansion to test the attitude of the northwest princes towards the imperial court nearby?

When the army is gathered, Chai Rong will definitely summon the ministers of the northwest one by one, Li Zhongyi is the first to be summoned, it is conceivable that his strength has attracted Chai Rong's great attention.

Li Zhongyi received the order to summon him, and without even changing his clothes, he directly came to see Chai Rong with light troops, and at the first time, he had already proved his loyalty to the imperial court.

If Li Zhongyi inked the ink and delayed perfunctory, he would not come to see Chai Rong. Hey, the more than 100,000 troops gathered in Jingzhao Mansion are probably not the eight party departments in Xiazhou, but Li Zhongyi, who is entrenched in Lingzhou.

Li Zhongyi never dared to have extravagant hopes, just this time his appearance was good, which completely dispelled Chai Rong's doubts about him.

On the issue of dealing with Comrade Lao Chai, Li Zhongyi has always grasped one thing: Lao Chai is in power for one day, and he must be the most loyal courtier of the Great Zhou! (To be continued......)
