Chapter 591: Suspicion of Private Soldiers
Chapter 591: Suspicion of Private Soldiers
The rebellion of Chang'an, in the history of the Tang Dynasty, did not happen without the Xuanwumen incident in which Emperor Taizong Li Shimin ascended to the throne. The attempted rebellion included the rebellion of Prince Chengqian, Hou Junji and others. Since the founding of the country, three generations of emperors have had such things twice, and they are his father and brother, so Emperor Li Dadi definitely attaches great importance to the security of Chang'an City.
It is said that chivalry is forbidden by martial arts, and at the feet of the Son of Heaven, how can assassins and the like be allowed to run rampant!
Therefore, Li Zhi almost unanimously agreed with a series of decisions made by his wife, and incidentally proposed to review the armament status of the powerful families. Empress Wu had long wanted to do such a thing, but now that her husband was relieved, she was undoubtedly overjoyed, and immediately found the generals of the Yulin Army to explain after going out.
This right feather forest army general is a certain meritorious veteran, as for this left feather forest army general, it was added by Li Xian because of his meritorious service to the mausoleum, and he returned to the capital. Although this authority is great, at this time, he avoided suspicion and nested on the side without saying that the Empress Wu said, until the majestic old general went out to deploy, and he was not busy following out. However, not interfering does not mean that he really cares about it, this is Chang'an City, where the powerful are concentrated!
Since the Tang Dynasty started with martial arts, this vassal elegance is certainly the habit of the king, but martial arts has always been the norm. Riding skills must be practiced, swordsmanship and archery must also be practiced, and it is the habit of the people of the time to raise dozens of generals, not to mention private soldiers. However. If you want to calculate it seriously, there is no problem with equipping bows and arrows, and there is no problem with equipping swords, but there is only one point, the army's ground standard equipment is strictly controlled supplies, and if it is privately possessed, it is considered a crime!
"If the Yulin Army finds out something prohibited, what are you going to do with it, Queen Mother?"
"What to do? Of course, it is disposed of according to the law! ”
When Empress Wu replied to Li Xian's words, her face was quite murderous, and she had just restrained her anger in front of people: "If you don't investigate this matter, it will come to light." How do I do this ruling diva? Your father and I only paid a little more attention to this person, so we caused such a life lawsuit, what if this happened to Zaizhi? I was too kind before, this person is good at being bullied. If there is no bloodshed, I am afraid that everyone will follow suit! ”
A temptation in exchange for such a tough answer, Li Xian suddenly had nothing to say, and persuasion was in vain. But I know it's useless. Some things that are not nutritious still have to be said, including asking my mother to take care of her body, don't work day and night, and eat when it's time to make up for it. When the medicine is supplemented...... After talking a lot of things like this, Empress Wu suddenly changed the conversation and mentioned the issue of his heir.
"Ah Luo has it. You put a little more effort into other people, too. What's the matter with the dignified King Yong's son? I know that Helan Shenruo and Ah Xu are not easy masters. Go back and tell them, and say that I said it. Don't be so tight with you, get close to a few maids, if they all give birth to children, aren't they the same as their children? ”
Li Xian was dumbfounded by this, and when he reacted for a while, he actually wanted to roll his eyes, but in the end he held back. Empress Wu strictly controlled Li Zhi by herself, and after the book, the entire harem of Nuoda only gave birth to Li Xian, Li Xulun and Li Lingyue, three children, all of whom were born by her. People say don't do to others what you don't want to do to others, this mother is good, but she doesn't care if she is happy or not.
Although he was full of disapproval, he still agreed duplicitously, and then pulled his legs away. I went to visit my emperor Lao Tzu on the way, and found that Li Zhi's condition was not good or bad, but he was not in a good mood, so he would not stay longer, and he would leave for a while before going to the East Palace. As soon as he stepped into the Gardamen, he was invited to the West Pool by a certain Praetorian guard who had arrived in a hurry, and at the same time heard a not-so-wonderful news.
Ming Hui's body doesn't seem to be very good! In other words, the child in her belly seems to be showing some signs of instability!
Although he had heard Qu Tushen Ruo mention Ming Huidi's madness, Li Xian didn't pay too much attention to it, and at this moment, seeing that the guard's face was blue and white, as if he had a lot to do with it, he had more and more headaches. If he wanted to say that this matter should have been told to Empress Wu, he knew that although Empress Wu also liked his children and grandchildren, he hated Ming Hui's behavior. If you tell your mother that you will talk about the child, I am afraid that the child's mother will die together.
"You've done a great job!" Li Xian slapped the guard on the shoulder twice, and then took out two pieces of money from his sleeve and stuffed them into the other party's hands, "You don't have to panic, I will arrange this matter, you just have to do your duty first, don't worry about the rest!" ”
The janissary was eager to have such a sentence, accepted the two coins and thanked them a thousand times, and immediately promised to do their own work. And Li Xian stood there for a while, and then went to the Mingde Hall - because Qu Tushen Ruo said that the crown princess was moved
The concubine said that the crown prince Li Hong was moved, and the prince finally moved back from Yichun Hall to Mingde Palace, and the young couple finally lived in separate rooms.
Who let the royal rules have a lot of them, but they don't follow them?
As Li Xian and Li Hong muttered, the most elite thousand cavalry of the Yulin Army finally appeared in front of the people and officials of Chang'an City with a thunderous momentum. For the soldiers on the street, people were a little panicked, and even some of the older ones remembered the scene of the Taizong Xuanwumen mutiny. Although I don't know who dares to emulate Taizong back then, fear is irrational.
As a result, the price of rice in the rice shop skyrocketed, and the people who hurriedly hid the grain at home got off the door panel and began to close the door, quietly observing the movement outside through the cracks. As for the marriage of the second princess, which was originally prepared to be vigorous, it gradually stopped at this time - as long as everyone in Chang'an is suspected, and the officials of the Ministry of Rites are also within the scope of suspicion, who has the heart to work at this time?
The result of the scouting is that people are panicked, however, the martial queen is a person who is not afraid of other people's mouths and tongues, and she is not intimidated by the overwhelming rumors at all. When it was time to arrest someone, he would not be merciful, and he would immediately begin to torture him when he was put in prison.
Of course, there has not yet been a cool official who frightened Li Xian's heart, and the one who hit the muzzle of the gun was originally the fierce and ruthless elements on the ground in Chang'an - in layman's terms, it was the ruffian hooligan ranger. And Huo Huaien followed Li Xian to inspect the Yongzhou Party Prison once, this man who is not afraid of the ground and the earth, when he came out, his legs and stomach were a little trembling.
Fortunately, he has been washing his hands for a long time, and he has also cast a good backer, otherwise he will definitely be in the ranks of the crackdown this time!
"Lao Huo, you are such a bold person, will you be afraid?" Li Xian himself was also frightened by the bloody scene, after all, the scene of this torture was not the same as the bloody storm on the battlefield, and he thought of the famous cool official. Seeing that Huo Huaien only smiled bitterly in the face of the irony of his diverted gaze, he had to change the topic.
"Since the end of the expedition to Liaodong, my personal soldiers seem to have risen a lot, and now the rest are still at ease in the manor outside the city?"
"This ...... Your Royal Highness Mingjian, after Li Jingzhen's warning some time ago, I have already transferred everyone to the Gongwei Yongwang Mansion in Andingfang. Huo Huaien hesitated for a moment before telling the truth, and then added a sentence that surprised Li Xian, "Moreover, most of them used to be famous rangers in the Longyou area, and they are not very accustomed to military discipline in the army. ”
Could it be that this is the most powerful pro-army in history?
Although these terrifyingly high ranks all represent the military exploits of those personal soldiers who beheaded and killed the enemy, and also showed what kind of elite personal soldiers he Li Xian cultivated, he was a little unhappy at this time. Now at this very moment, those fierce and vicious guys are actually nesting in his house in Andingfang? Oh my God, if this is the Yulin Army's visit, will these thugs who only know him and don't know other people throw people out?
"Your Highness, rest assured, after they have official status, they are not unscrupulous people, and they will never cause trouble for Your Highness!"
Let's hope so! Although he had some confidence in Huo Huaien's oath, Li Xian still decided to hurry home, but he was still sighing in his heart. Whoever made his house bigger than a whole garden in the future, if he hadn't deliberately walked around, whether there were hundreds of more or fewer people in the house, he would never know!
Just as he was hurrying to beat his horse and rush back to his house, he was stopped by a vote from Yokosato. The person who came was none other than the thousand horsemen of the Yulin Army who were tasked with attacking the fortifications this time. After Qianqi Guoyi Cheng Wuting led the crowd to stop Li Xian, he saw the military salute of his superiors as his subordinates, and immediately clenched his fists loudly.
"General, the late King Ze Shangjin has three hundred private soldiers and twenty pairs of armor; Wang Sujie had 200 private soldiers and 10 pairs of armor; Among the generals of King Ji's family, there are three people of unknown origin; Among the generals of the Yue Wang's family, there are two people of unknown origin; There is a Jiang Yang thief in the British king's family who is suspected of being wanted by the Criminal Department......"
If Li Xian was really taken aback at first, then as the names of his relatives surfaced, he gradually felt a little weak. Don't say this, King Li Xian is his younger brother, he still knows that the transfer of Li Xian will also bring in the Jiangyang thief, so what about him?
If he remembers correctly, he thought that when he directly recruited the pro-corps in Liangzhou, he didn't ask about his origin at all, and he chose the brave and powerful ones to be directly accepted! If something goes wrong, I'm afraid no one will surpass him, right? This Cheng Wuting only cares about reporting to others and doesn't mention him at all, is it to cover up for him, the nominal boss, or to put it in the last blockbuster?
