Chapter 140: Liaodong won the first battle
"Your Highness! Xi Wei and others have been beheaded, and Chen Telai has come to restore his life. Flashing dance," Du Ho saluted.
"Have all the envoys of the court gone to watch? What expressions do they have. Li Chengqian lowered his head and asked as he wrote.
"According to His Royal Highness's orders, all the envoys of the court went to watch the beheading, and at that time, the faces of these court envoys changed greatly, and this time through the case of Xi Zhi, I believe that no one should dare to commit this case again." Du He told Li Chengqian about the scene at that time.
"The widow wrote an urgent report on this matter and sent it to his father in Liaodong, although we killed him, but this matter cannot be hidden." Li Chengqian said.
Although this Xi Zhi is a corrupt official, even if Li Chengqian is the crown prince, he can't kill Yizhou Assassin Shi at will.
Without the emperor's edict, even if there is a judgment of the three divisions, it will not work, even if Li Chengqian is now the crown prince of the prison state.
Li Chengqian's killing of Xi Zhi belongs to the first cut and then the prelude, where will the emperor feel comfortable, if he doesn't even mention it, it will inevitably arouse the emperor's suspicion, who knows if you want to eradicate dissidents.
They want to install their own people in the states and their own people in the DPRK and China, so as to achieve the goal of plotting against them.
Li Chengqian didn't dare to test whether Li Er would be suspicious, people's hearts were unpredictable, and the most untestable thing in the world was people's hearts.
So, it has to be written, and it has to be beautifully written.
This report not only has to write the ins and outs of the whole thing clearly, but also must let Li Er see that he is excellent, and at the same time, he must not be proud of his achievements, and he must try to lower his posture and look modest.
"Look, what's wrong with this report? If there is no problem, let the post station Pegasus be passed to Liaodong. Li Chengqian put down the brush in his hand and pointed to the report he had just written.
"No!" Du He responded, stepped forward and picked up the report written by Li Chengqian, looked through it carefully, and confirmed that there was nothing wrong.
"Your Highness! There's nothing wrong with the report! ”
"Okay, I'll send this recital to Liaodong, and a widow who asks his father about the current situation will also be sent to the post station Pegasus."
"Wang Quan, you go to the King of Jin to have a look, see if he has a letter to send to Liaodong, so as not to toss back and forth." Li Chengqian said.
"Slave and maid, go now." Wang Quan answered, retreated, and ran directly to the Li Zheng Palace.
Since Luoyang said goodbye, Li Zhi has basically passed a letter to Li Er every day, talking about his thoughts about his father and emperor, as well as his daily life and work.
Even if you are in a good mood today, what time you go to bed, and what you have done throughout the day, these are all reported to Li Eryi one by one.
Compared with Li Zhi's "diligence", Li Chengqian is more "lazy", and he does not write letters to Li Er so often.
"What? Today, King Jin's letter has been sent? When Li Chengqian saw Wang Quan coming back empty-handed, he thought that Li Zhi had asked the post station Pegasus to pass the family letter.
"King Jin said that the lady was seriously ill, and he had no time to write a family letter, so he would not send a family letter to Liaodong in the near future." Wang Quan said.
"Since the King of Jin has not sent a letter to His Majesty recently, then we will leave it alone, and it is important to send this report to Liaodong." Li Chengqian said.
"No!" Wang Quan stepped forward to take the sealed report handed to him by Li Chengqian, retreated, and hurriedly sent it to the post station, so that he could immediately send it to Liaodong.
The letters and newspapers sent by Li Chengqian to Liaodong were sent to the post station by Wang Quan's hands, and then the post station sent a fast horse to Liaodong to deliver them to Li Er.
Seven days later, the post station sent Li Chengqian's recital to Li Er's camp.
At this time, Li Er's expedition won his first victory, and Zhang Liang and Cheng Mingzhen's troops had already won Goguryeo's Beisha City, and the first battle was won!
"Report! Your Majesty! Chang'an sent a report! ”
The battle report has just been delivered to Li Er, and Li Er is overjoyed! Suddenly, he heard that Chang'an was coming to report, and Li Er didn't bother to read the battle report carefully.
"It must be the slave's letter to the family! Bring it to me. ”
"No!"
The soldiers outside the tent stooped in, knelt down on one knee, and held a copy above their heads.
Li Er immediately stepped forward to take it, uncovered the sealing mud on it, and made a report everywhere from inside, Li Er hurriedly inspected it, and the joy on his face froze.
"Everyone! But what went wrong with His Royal Highness King Jin? Wang Yuan saw that Li Er's face was a little unpleasant, and thought that something had happened to Li Zhi.
He knew in his heart how much his master loved his ninth son.
"No, it's a report from Cheng Qian!" Li Er said.
"What did His Royal Highness the Crown Prince say in the report? So much so that everyone is so annoyed? The eldest grandson Wuji on the side asked.
"Cheng Qian said in the newspaper that Cangzhou Assassin Shi Xifen and Changlu County ordered Li Taiban and others to accept bribes and bend the law for bribes, and they have been punished by him, you can see for yourself." Li Er said that, handed the report in his hand to the eldest grandson Wuji, and the eldest grandson Wuji hurriedly took it and looked at it.
"In addition to the prince's recital, there is also a letter from the King of Jin?" Li Er asked.
Now he doesn't care about other things, and he is quite satisfied with Li Chengqian's way of handling Xi Yan's affairs.
Although it may not be able to completely eliminate corruption, it has at least served as a deterrent.
In the future, if there are any more officials who want to be corrupt, thinking about the fate of Xi Zhi can also have some effect.
Now all he wanted to know was why his young slave hadn't written him a letter to his family?
"Your Majesty! There is only this report today, and there are no other letters! The soldier said, "It is true that I have only received this report today."
"I know!" Li Er waved his hand to let the soldiers retreat, and the soldiers saluted and withdrew.
"Don't worry! Maybe King Jin was delayed because of something! I forgot to write a letter to Your Majesty. Wang Yuan comforted.
"The young slave has always been filial, and every day people send letters from Chang'an to greet me, never stopping, but today I don't see his family letters sent, I am really worried!" Li Er's brows furrowed.
"Auxiliary, what do you think about Cheng Qian's handling of Xi Zhi?" Li Er saw that the eldest grandson Wuji had already finished reading the report.
"The minister thinks that it is very good for Cheng Qian to deal with it like this! Not only to deal with the criminals, but also to prove the notarization of the law, but also to deter those officials who have the same thoughts as Xi Wei and others but have not yet done it. The eldest grandson Wuji said.
"You're right! Cheng Qian is a qualified prince, and he will definitely become a qualified king in the future. Li Er said.
"Your Majesty! How do we get back to Chengqian? Eldest Sun Wuji asked.
"Send an edict back to Chang'an to reward the merits of the cadres and supervisors of the country, and by the way, the good news of our army's victory in the first battle will also be transmitted back to Chang'an, so that the people of Chang'an can also share the fruits of this victory with me." Li Er said.
"No! The minister understands what to do! The eldest grandson Wuji said.
