Chapter 557: Situation Change

Li Zhongyi didn't explain his thoughts, and Liu Jinshan didn't break the casserole to ask the end, he took out a few pieces of paper and reported Li Congshan's recent moves in detail.

"Lao Liu, Li Congshan is not important, it is useless to kill it, but it is beneficial to let it go." Li Zhongyi has always been thinking about the Xiao Zhou of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms of Yanguan, although Li Congshan is useless, if he takes him south, there is still a place to make a fuss.

At least, Li Congshan is quite familiar with the people of the Southern Tang Dynasty and the topography of Jinling, and it is not a bad thing to let him be a guide at a critical moment.

Zhao Kuangyin had already left the capital, but Han Tong had been staying in the capital and refused to move, obviously reporting that he was sick, but there was a lot of traffic in front of Han's house, and the generals came to visit, quite a lot.

The more Han Tong was on the shelf and took his temper, the more Fan Zhen was jealous of him, and the political affairs hall repeatedly went down to the court three times to urge Han Tong to lead troops out of Beijing.

However, Han Tong has always turned a deaf ear and went his own way, and finally, Fan Zhen couldn't bear it anymore, went directly to the palace, and said cruel words to the Empress Dowager Fu.

Although Empress Dowager Fu was a woman, she knew that Han Tong was the most trusted military minister of the first emperor, so she borrowed the name of the little emperor to invite Han Tong into the palace and soothed her with kind words.

Although Han Tong looked down on Fan Qian, he still had great respect for the royal family, especially the Empress Dowager Fu and the little emperor who had been entrusted by the first emperor repeatedly.

Less than two days after the Queen Mother summoned him, Han Tong's "illness" was miraculously cured, and then Han Tong also left!

Of the three generals in the court, two left, but Li Zhongyi was the only one who was stuck in not giving enough grain, grass and baggage because of the three envoys to the yamen. And it was delayed in the capital.

Li Zhongyi made up his mind, as long as the three envoys did not give enough food, grass, baggage and weapons. He will never leave Beijing.

Fan Zhen's attitude towards Li Zhongyi is completely different from that towards Hantong. After all, Li Zhongyi's reasons are above board, the army has not moved, and the grain and grass go first, even the Empress Dowager Fu, a lady in the deep palace, knows it.

The dispatch of 40,000 troops to mobilize grain, grass and baggage was by no means a day's work.

The imperial court has always focused on the north and northwest as the focus of strategic defense. Therefore, in the military towns near the Khitans, the Northern Han Dynasty and the Later Shu, a large number of materials were hoarded.

However, the national strength and military strength of the Southern Tang Dynasty were obviously inferior to those of the Great Zhou, and with the national strength of the Great Zhou, it was difficult to support the material reserves in three directions at the same time.

Such a reality happened to give Li Zhongyi a reason to bargain, and Fan Zhen got the report of the three envoys. After a long time, he said an intriguing sentence, "What a Li Wuyi." ”

In the boudoir of the folded race flower, Li Zhongyi took off his shirt and lay on the hot kang horizontally. Wrap a little baby around each of your arms, and play with a pair of children happily.

"Master, Zhao Yuanlang and Han Tong are gone. How do you ......" Zhi Saihua asked Li Zhongyi with some curiosity.

Li Zhongyi has always admired the insight of the folded Saihua, so he simply had sex. said with a smile: "Your Majesty has a few days to go out of the funeral, and I am one of the eight ministers of the imperial court." How can you not send a few rides? ”

Zhe Saihua blinked a pair of beautiful eyes and laughed softly: "Hehe, my man has never refused to lose." ”

In this era when etiquette and religion were prevalent, if Li Zhongyi participated in the coffin and sent it to the mausoleum, the political significance was very significant.

Fan Zhen saw through Li Zhongyi's thoughts, but because it really took a lot of time to mobilize grain, grass and baggage in the capital (Kaifeng Mansion led by Li Zhongyi, Yang Feng Yin violated, and he was very uncooperative with the convening of the people), and he was helpless!

Sending the first emperor to the mausoleum, for the era of autocratic dynasties, this means that there is strong political capital!

Of course, with this potential, you also need to have strong strength, and the two have always complemented each other!

Borrowing the momentum, and not taking advantage of the momentum, is of great significance to the legitimacy of Li Zhongyi's future power in the early days of power.

The samurai held military power, but scholars became more and more active in politics. The name of righteousness, this thing, seems to be illusory, but once it is combined with military power, it can show a good effect of twice the result with half the effort.

After all, Confucianism is still very powerful in brainwashing readers.

Playing politics is originally to spill out huge profits, pull one gang, fight another faction, and not let any group of people dominate, this so-called logic of power restraint pursued by any dynasty!

The transfer of the commanders of the eight military regions is actually a check and balance of power carried out by Mao Taizu according to this logic. Its main purpose is to keep the feudal town in the same place for a long time, so as not to cause the tail to be large.

Unlike Zhao Kuangyin and Han Tong, who were pure military ministers, Li Zhongyi was one of the eight prime ministers of the current dynasty appointed by the first emperor.

Not to mention, whether Li Zhongyi, the eighth minister, has real power, at least political status, far surpasses his colleagues who are much more senior than him.

Zhao Kuangyin has ten brothers in the righteous society, Han Tong has a large group of old subordinates in the army, but Li Zhongyi only has Yulin right guard in hand.

Among the three marshals of the Great Zhou, Li Zhongyi was the weakest before, so although Fan Zhen suppressed from time to time, he didn't really regard Li Zhongyi as a confidant.

This time, Li Zhongyi's insistence on attending Chai Rong's funeral will definitely arouse Fan Zhen's high vigilance.

According to her own train of thought, when she mentioned this issue, Li Zhongyi waved his hand, smiled slightly, and said: "Fan Xianggong is a man who is resourceful and decisive, if I blindly Tao is obscure, it will cause big trouble." ”

"Master, what you said is extremely true." Zhesaihua fed Li Zhongyi a grape to eat, wiped his hands with a handkerchief, and said with a smile, "Don't violate principles, there are a lot of small problems, my lord, is it so reasonable?" ”

Li Zhongyi reached over, took the folding flower into his arms, and said with a smile: "My lady is really shrewd, and she admires her husband very much. ”

Zhe Saihua found that Li Zhongyi's hands were very unruly, and she subconsciously glanced at the two little babies on the bed.

After a long time, Li Zhongyi wiped the corners of his mouth with satisfaction, hugged the folding flower with a smile, and teased: "It's sweet and fragrant, it's delicious!" ”

Zhe Saihua tightened her clothes, and at the same time, she looked at Li Zhongyi angrily, and whispered her dissatisfaction: "Grab food and drink with the little baby, how can you have such an Aye?" ”

Li Zhongyi lay down on the kang on all fours, and muttered: "You man and I, I really didn't drink my mother's ...... back then."

Zhe Saihua smiled, pointed at Li Zhongyi's forehead, and said angrily: "My lord, when you were born, the old lady was already a famous imperial doctor, can't you afford to invite a grandmother?" ”

What Li Zhongyi suddenly remembered was actually his own mother of a senior intellectual, and it was a great pity that he had not drunk a sip of his mother's milk since he was born.

Men who have lacked maternal love since childhood are more or less psychologically unbalanced. Snatching a pair of children's milk to drink, similar things, Li Zhongyi can only find the feeling of making up for his shortcomings in the folded race flower.

"Hua Niang, after I go south, the small things will be decided by the bottle girl, and you will have to make up your mind for the big things." Li Zhongyi is still a little worried after all, what if Zhao Lao Er and Shi Shouxin, Wang Pu and others make a move in advance?

Li Zhongyi is not Liu Bang, a big hooligan who is not recognized by his six relatives, is it really for the sake of the country, he has to lose his parents, wife and children?

Liu Bang can be a non-toxic husband, Li Zhongyi asked himself, he would never be able to do the "evil thing" regardless of family affection.

"Master, there will be no big problems with Sister Tang in the family." Zhe Saihua didn't care too much at first, her man was one of the eight prime ministers of the dynasty, and he was newly appointed as the head of the Southern Expeditionary Army, and he was in power, who would dare to easily brush the tiger's beard?

Li Zhongyi accentuated his tone and whispered: "You must prevent someone from making trouble in the capital. ”

Zhi Saihua was taken aback, and she immediately realized that Li Zhongyi must have noticed something abnormal, otherwise, she would have been told so seriously.

"Master, could it be Hantong...... No, it shouldn't be him, then it can only be Yuen Long......" Zhesaihua's unusually keen political sense made Li Zhongyi very happy, he leaned close to Zhesaihua's ear and said softly, "There is a tunnel in the house, and the entrance is in my ...... After I go south, don't let my family live too far apart, lest I fall into the hands of thieves......"

While obeying Li Zhongyi's instructions, Zhe Saihua was secretly happy, such a big matter, Li Lang only told her to deal with it alone, which shows Li Zhongyi's high trust in her.

After completing the instructions, Li Zhongyi took out a small gold medal with a special symbol from his arms, and cautiously stuffed it into the hand of the folding flower, "Hua Niang, with this thing, you can command all the generals in the mansion, including Li Shijiu." ”

"Master, Sister Bottle, there will be no ......" Zhi Saihua asked Li Zhongyi with some hesitation, Li Zhongyi didn't wait for her to finish speaking, waved his hand and said, "I will say hello in advance, Bottle is an understanding person, and the overall situation is important!" ”

Tang Shuyi, that is, the bottle, deals with some housework on weekdays, and he is handy.

It's just that when it comes to the catastrophe of the survival of the entire family member, Tang Shuyi is limited by his vision and knowledge, and it may be difficult to make a correct decision.

She Taijun in history, his unique political vision is admirable. In fact, the folded race flower lying on the pillow has already proved her political strength to Li Zhongyi.

"Master, it's only authentic, it's still not good." Zhe Saihua pondered it carefully, and whispered, "According to the slave family's secret observation, the subordinates and maidservants in the family may have other people's eyes and ears?" ”

Li Zhongyi stroked his palm lightly and said with a smile: "Hua Niang is worthy of being a female Zhuge who does not let her eyebrows, and in our house, there is indeed an eyeliner left by the first emperor......"

The husband and wife discussed and discussed, until the deeper and quieter they hugged each other and fell asleep.

Just when Li Zhongyi was planning the chapter, in Kaifeng City tonight, there were at least five groups of people in private, gathering, communicating, and plotting many things. (To be continued.) )

PS: There must be more!
