19. Li Baozhen takes it

Now between Gao Yue, Lingxu and the emperor, a real "secret wall politics" has been formed.

Gao Yue only said in the report that he wanted the world to see it, but some of his true strategies, "in order to avoid people's eyes and ears", used Lingxu as an intermediary and handed them over to the emperor in private.

This is Gao Yue's shrewdness, his secret letter is only shown to the emperor through the spiritual void.

In this way, the emperor has a virtual but incomparably strong sense of manipulation and personal experience of the front line, which cannot be obtained by the Yanying Hall and the Zai Zhiwen, as if I am really commanding Gao Yue, and Gao Yue is directly in control of the battle situation.

Whether it is the Battle of Hwajeong, the Qingju Liquidation of Dongsan Party, or the three-way battle of Fang Cai, in fact, I am behind the scenes, planning and commanding with hard work!

As Gao Yue stated, the emperor would always think that these things were "my own".

Don't look at Li Shi's always like to veto the difficult ruling ministers, ministers and imperial history, but can he still veto the "my own" plan? Therefore, what Gao Yue said was agreed nine times out of ten.

At this time, the emperor did not know that he had slowly fallen into the inner drowning of Li Yu's deathbed warning: the monarch should not be too arbitrary and secret, avoid the execution, and trust the relatives, female officials, and middle officials around him, otherwise it seems to be observed, but in fact it is easier to be blinded by congestion, and it will be too late to seek escape when he wakes up.

When Lingxu came with a smile, the emperor was eating corn cakes and steamed cakes, and there was a vegetable soup in front of the table.

Seeing his father so simple, Lingxu's smile disappeared immediately, and he felt a deep sense of distress.

My father had been asking Fangzhen and various provinces and prefectures all day long to ask for advancement, and for this reason, not only other ministers, but even the most trusted gentlemen, Li Mi and the bachelor Lu Zhen, violently accused my father of the issue of the inner library Xuansuo.

In fact, my father asked for this money, so why did he spend all his time drinking? Some are used to prepare for the daughters' marriages and buy mansions, some are used to dredge up the relationship with Hui and Nanzhao, and most of the others are needed to support the military expenses of the front line. Especially when he was hunting in Yunyang Field that day, after seeing what happened to Ma Yiyu's family, he often sighed after returning to the palace, and only the secret letter from the front line sent by Gao Yue could make him happy for a while.

So when the emperor had a meal, he ate these things, and while eating, he slowly looked at the inner treasury books sent by the lieutenant officials, and carefully calculated the accounts.

Sure enough, when the emperor knew that his daughter had sent Gao Yue's secret letter farewell paper, he couldn't wait to put down the food chopsticks and open them.

Soon, when Yan Ying asked the right question, the emperor said it himself, and even Dou Shen, the Chinese scholar, couldn't believe his ears:

Gao Yue commanded the Eighth Army, and it was very difficult to command, and I was ready to return the Baoda Army (Suining) and the Jingsai Army (Weibei) to Hezhong Jiedu to make Hun Xuan; And Liu Haibin's Shence Weirong Army and Xing Junya's Shence Xuanwei Army were established separately and were under the control of Xing Junya, the general of Shence.

Therefore, now Gao Yue is directly commanded by Dingwu, Yining, and Shence decisive armies, and Lingwu's Shuofang army is also temporarily under his control.

As for the positions of King Pu and Jia Tan's (mascots), Ban Hong also continued to judge the case of the branch secretary and was responsible for supplying the army.

Hearing this, Dou Shen was overjoyed.

After all, Gao Yue originally commanded the Eighth Route Army, with a total of nearly 200,000 troops, and his military power almost surpassed that of Guo Ziyi, the former king of Fenyang, how could a normal emperor tolerate it?

At this moment, the emperor asked Dou Shen again: "Bai Yu Shandong, I want to appoint the Zhenwu Army to make Li Jingluo the commander of the capital, and control the four roads of Xia Suiyin, Tiande Army, Fengcheng Army, and Zhaoyi Army (Wang Yangui), responsible for discussing the party items in the place, and choose a day to restore the Yin, Sui, and Shi prefectures, and Zhang Peng, the envoy of the North Water Transport, will supply the army, if what?" ”

Dou Shen is secretly happy again, the emperor is willing to reuse our people!

But he still had to be modest on the surface, so he said that the original commander of the Northern Army of the Imperial Camp should be Sikong Li Baozhen, and this must be sent to the envoy to inform him.

The emperor said yes, I will send someone immediately, and then he said to Ban Hong, the Duzhi Division urgently paid 400,000 yuan to cover the construction costs of the four cities of Baijingshu, Baibao, Lianma, and Pingding invited by Gao Yue.

Ban Hong immediately agreed, and Dou Shen did not raise any objections.

In this way, the resolution produced by this question is actually in accordance with the original imperial camp regulations, and four theaters are divided: Xing Junya's, which is mainly to monitor and guard against Xifan; Gao Yue's, purge the party; Hun Xuan's, as well as Li Jingluo's, have the same policy as Gao Yue.

In the military palace of the Zhaoyi Army, the buildings, pavilions, flower gardens, ponds and marshes are jagged and gorgeous, and the cost is no less than 500,000 yuan, all of which were built by Li Baozhen, who has been pampered and pampered in the past three years.

When Li Baozhen took over the Zelu camp, the land was barren and the army was incomplete, he and the military government were overcoming thorns and thorns, and they had trained the elite "Zhaoyi Army" that covered the world, in order to raise military expenses, Li Baozhen also did the ruthless thing of cheating and killing monks (I won't go into details, friends who want to see it can read Tang Li Xuan's "Shangshu and the Truth", which has Li Baozhen burning monks). But since the last time he pacified the defeat of Heshuo Fangzhen, the emperor made peace with the three towns of Heshuo, and Li Baozhen got the three rich states of Xing, Wei and Ci in the east of Taihang Mountain, and the military was abundant.

When the emperor's lieutenant envoy Meng Guangcheng came to the flower garden, several military officials stepped forward and said to the envoy with an uneasy face that Sikong had taken too much Jindan a few days ago and was lying on the couch, discussing with the refiner Sun Jichang.

As soon as he heard this, Meng Guangcheng's face was displeased, and he reprimanded several subordinates and said, you live in the shogunate, and the one you are assisting is Sikong, and he has no moderation in eating this thing now, and sooner or later something will happen, all of you will not admonish, so if the country breaks the pillars, you are all responsible.

Several subordinates looked embarrassed and confessed to Meng Guangcheng that the military administration of the Zhaoyi Army is almost in ruin now, and Sikong only believes in Sun Jichang, and there is nothing we can do.

Meng Guangcheng shook his head, sighed, and asked, how many golden pills did Sikong take this time?

In the Flower Garden Essence, Li Baozhen had a sallow face, lay on the couch, and said to the refiner Sun Jichang next to him: "This time, I ate a thousand golden pills given by the Venerable Master, and after eating it, my whole body was like burning, and my body was as light as a swallow, I originally thought that I could soar." But who would have thought that after just three days, he would have unbearable bloating, dry mouth and tongue, and no way to walk......"

Sun Lianshi smiled slightly and was silent.

"Please respect the teacher to teach me." Li Baozhen pleaded.

Master Sun Lian said: "Actually, it is caused by the insufficient amount of Jindan taken by Sikong. ”

When Li Baozhen heard this, sweat flowed down, and a thousand thoughts were not enough?

Master Sun nodded, and then raised three fingers.

Three, three thousand!

Li Baozhen trembled and got up from the couch and walked to the vestibule of the building, where there was a crane several feet high, made of precious wood and lacquer, which was lifelike.

Sun Jichang, who followed behind him, pointed to this wooden crane and persuaded Li Baozhen earnestly: "Sikong is a person with immortal bones, and the creation of this wooden crane is a rehearsal for the ascension, as long as you insist on serving my golden pill, there will be a real immortal crane flying down that day, carrying Sikong into an immortal, and since then you can swim between infinity, so why give up halfway?" ”
