Thanks to the blessings of those villagers in Fengxiang Mansion, Li Qi finally felt the feeling of running wild in the palace, which shows how much the Song court attaches importance to this matter, after all, the northwest is not as good as the south of the Yangtze River, because the northwest is the foundation of the Great Song Dynasty, if this is not dealt with, the Great Song Dynasty is undoubtedly not far from the death of the country.

On the way, Li Qi also learned a rough idea in the conversation with Liang Shicheng, which can probably be condensed into two words, which is weird. It's better not to understand, the more you talk about it, the more confused it becomes, and even a little creepy, with a terrifying atmosphere everywhere.

Before entering the main hall, he could hear a quarrel from inside, and Li Qi only felt a headache, thinking to himself, I'm afraid it will be difficult to get out of the whole body today. When Li Qi came to the palace, the ministers also stopped arguing and turned their heads to look at him.

What do you see me doing? I'm here to make soy sauce. Li Qi turned a blind eye and saluted: "Weichen Li Qi visited the emperor, long live my emperor, long live long live." ”

Song Huizong is also full of sorrow now, and said: "Aiqing is flat." ”

"Emperor Xie!"

Song Huizong asked, "You should already know why I summoned you here, right?" ”

Li Qi shook his head and said, "Back to the emperor, Weichen is not very clear. ”

Liang Shicheng looked at him in surprise, as if to say, what we said is not clear!

Li Qi gave two helpless looks, thinking, what you said is clear enough, but the problem is that the whole thing itself is not clear.

Song Huizong waved his hand and said, "Then you can go to the side and listen first." ”

"Yes!"

Li Qi couldn't ask for it, so he quickly found an inconspicuous corner, anyway, the hall was in a mess now, and he was basically standing in the middle.

Song Huizong glanced at him slightly, and said lightly: "Where did you just talk about it?" ”

Cai You hurriedly said: "If you go back to the emperor, Fang Cai Weichen said that you should immediately send troops to Fengxiang Mansion to quell the chaos, otherwise it has been a long time, and when the traitor grows stronger, it is the best policy to raise tigers, and get rid of them as soon as possible." ”

I know that this guy of yours will say this, you are far worse than your father, and you have your own interests in your eyes, and you don't have the overall situation at all. Li Qi expressed strong disdain for Cai You.

Obviously, Cai You wants to make meritorious contributions, after all, since he became a privy envoy, he has never received military merits, which is compared with Tong Guanyi, and the judgment is high. Originally, Jiangnan was a good opportunity, but because of Qin Hui's strategy, he missed the opportunity, and this time he said that he would not let it go.

You must know that this is about the Western Army, just ask which privy envoy does not want to have a good relationship with the Western Army, Tong Guan also came back from a trip to the northwest, so that there is today's Shengjie Army. Although Cai You does not have Tong Guan's mind, and his military talent is far from enough, he must also want to learn from Tong Guan, get an army from the northwest, and be able to make great contributions, no matter what the reason for the matter is, he must want to send troops, there is no doubt about this!

"Your Majesty, this move is absolutely inappropriate."

At this time, Wu Min suddenly stood up and said: "Now that the matter has not been clarified, the governor of Fengxiang Mansion also said that there is no rebellion in the local area, so you must not act rashly." Weichen thought that this incident might be related to the famine in Fengxiang Mansion at the end of last year, and those villagers should have no food to eat, so they took risks and robbed military rations. ”

Li Qi's eyes widened, he took two steps towards the cat next to him, came to the side of Brother Yu who was closing his eyes and recuperating, and asked in a low voice: "Taiwei, there was a famine in Fengxiang Mansion at the end of last year?" ”

Gao Yu opened his eyes slightly, and said lightly: "If you don't cause this trouble, then listen less and ask less." ”

Typical of the Brother Yu style.

The expression on Li Qi's face froze suddenly, and he heard someone shouting: "Wu Qishi, what do you mean by this?" Last year, the imperial court had already allocated grain for disaster relief, enough for them to last until a bumper harvest, how could they have no food to eat? ”

Li Qi turned his head and saw that it was Liang Ji, one of the three giants of the three divisions, who spoke.

Cai You snorted: "Duzhi's words are good, those Diao people are clearly trying to rebel, and they should send troops." ”

Wu Min said: "If it is as the British public said, it is impossible that there is no news from Fengxiang Mansion and the Western Army, and besides, two or three thousand Zhejia troops suddenly disappeared, is this normal?" ”

Cai You sneered: "This can only show one point, that is, the strength of those anti-thieves should not be underestimated, and the imperial court should send troops immediately." ”

Wu Min said: "This is just a one-sided statement of the British public, and there is no empirical evidence. ”

Cai You said angrily: "There is no empirical evidence? What is the 20,000 stone military rations, and what are the more than 2,000 soldiers? And some people have witnessed it with their own eyes, which is ironclad evidence. ”

Wu Min retorted: "If those so-called thieves have the ability to encircle and suppress the Zhejia army, and let the Zhejia army be wiped out, then the scale must not be small, such a big movement, why does Fengxiang Mansion not know at all?" ”

It makes sense, I think so too. While the two of them were arguing, Li Qi came to Zhao Liangsi's side again and asked in a low voice, "Doctor Zhao, there was a famine in Fengxiang Mansion last year?" ”

Zhao Liangsi nodded and said, "Last year, Fengxiang Mansion suffered a drought and there was a famine, but at that time, the imperial court immediately distributed enough food to relieve the disaster, which is absolutely true. ”

There is a reason for this, even if those villagers really rebelled, there should be a reason, is this robbery of military rations really related to last year's famine? But the imperial court has already sent food over! Li Qi frowned and groaned.

At this time, Liang Ji stood up again and said, "Weichen is not in favor of rashly sending troops. ”

These three people are also really funny, you are against me, I don't approve of him, and he refutes you. Song Huizong also had a headache when he heard this, and asked Cai Jing, "Taishi, what do you think about this matter?" ”

Cai Jing frowned, and said cautiously: "Lao Chen also has a lot of things that he can't understand, there are too many doubts about this matter, so Lao Chen thinks that he should immediately send someone to find out about this matter, in addition, he has to hurry up and collect military rations to Weizhou, after all, the Zhejia Army is one of the most important armies in our northwest frontier." In addition, Lao Chen felt that this matter should be related to last year's famine, so we should take precautions and prepare food in case of emergency. ”

Song Huizong nodded frequently when he heard this, and said, "The Taishi is reasonable!" ”

Cai You said: "But the emperor, this matter should not be delayed any longer, so as not to miss the opportunity!" We can send troops first, and then we will investigate in detail, and we will not delay. ”

Liang Ji said: "Your Majesty, my army just returned from Yanjing last year, and the consumption is huge, coupled with the economic construction of the economic envoys, the three divisions are almost bottoming out, even if the 20,000 stone military rations are all obtained by me personally writing to Jiangling Mansion, and Weichen can't get so much food now." ”

He didn't want to send troops, and he didn't want to transport food over, because once the troops were sent out, the money would flow out like water.

Zhao Huan said suddenly: "But the military rations of the Zhejia army can't be delayed any longer." ”

Song Huizong nodded and said, "Liang Aiqing, you have to think of a way to send the military grain over as soon as possible." ”

Liang Ji also understood the stakes, and saluted helplessly: "Weichen obeys." ”

Song Huizong rubbed his forehead, his headache was terrible, and he suddenly caught a glimpse of a figure shaking here and there, and said in a deep voice: "Li Qi." ”

Li Qi, who was still searching for news, suddenly heard the emperor calling him, and quickly stood up and said, "Weichen is here." ”

Song Huizong said: "You should understand by now, right?" ”

"Ugh!"

Song Huizong snorted: "I just saw that you are very comfortable, and you are more casual in this hall than in your own house." ”

I'm gossiping, you know? Li Qi clenched his fists and said: "Weichen is guilty." ”

"Now I don't want to punish you, but I want to ask you what you think about it?"

I'm all confused right now, what do I think! Li Qi pondered for a moment and said: "Weichen thinks that what the British public said is very reasonable, no matter what the reason, rebellion is always wrong, and troops should definitely be sent." ”

Cai You was stunned, looked at Li Qi in horror, and said secretly, how can this guy still help me speak?

And Liang Ji, Wu Min and others were very depressed when they heard it, they had seen Li Qi's eloquence, and they were afraid that he would instigate Song Huizong to send troops to Fengxiang Mansion.

Song Huizong nodded and said, "So, are you in favor of sending troops?" ”

Li Qi changed his words and said: "But Wu's words are also very reasonable, if someone rebels, then it will be natural, but the problem is that I have not received the news now, that is to say, there is no solid evidence to prove this, if you rush to send troops, I am afraid it will be self-defeating." Moreover, the famine at the end of last year, and such a strange thing at the beginning of this year, inevitably make people think of the two things together. ”

Wu Min breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. But Liang Ji lifted it up in one go.

Song Huizong frowned and said, "Then you are still in favor of not sending troops, you should send food?" ”

Li Qi said again: "In fact, the envoy also has his difficulties, for no reason to ask for an extra 20,000 stone of military rations, which is uncomfortable for anyone, and last year he has already transported food to the past, it can be said that he has used all the means he can, if he puts pressure on him again, it will be really difficult for a strong man." ”

Long live understanding! Liang Ji almost didn't cry, looking at Li Qi with watery eyes, as if there was a big beauty standing in front of him, and these words really went to his heart.

Song Huizong was stunned, suddenly slapped the dragon chair, and shouted: "Li Qi, you are so bold, you dare to play with me." ”

"Wechen doesn't dare."

"Don't dare?" Song Huizong said angrily: "I asked your opinion, but you have been talking for a long time, which is equivalent to not saying the same, I - I must treat you for the crime of bullying the king this time." ”

ri。 This trick again, enough is enough, you don't get tired of it, I'm tired of it. "The emperor forgives the sins." Li Qi hurriedly said: "Please also ask the emperor to listen to Weichen's words." ”

Song Huizong actually deliberately frightened Li Qi and said, "Say it quickly." ”

Li Qi wiped a handful of sweat and said: "What the British Duke, Du Zhi, and Wu said makes sense, Weichen thinks that we can send a vanguard army to go first, and conduct a detailed investigation of this matter, if there is really a rebellion, then there is nothing to say, there must be troops, and then the vanguard army can first and rebels, and then transfer the army forward, if there is another hidden situation, then it has to be dealt with as appropriate, all in all, we must investigate clearly before deciding what to do." ”

Song Huizong nodded and said, "What you said makes a lot of sense. In that case, I will order you to investigate. ”

"Me?" Li Qi said in horror.

"What? Do you still want to disobey my will? ”

"Wechen doesn't dare, it's just that the Ordnance Supervisor still has a lot of things waiting for Wechen to deal with, and Wechen can't pull out." Li Qi said depressedly, this thing is too weird, he is also afraid, it doesn't matter if he wants him to make suggestions, but if he wants to investigate, this is a joke with Xing's life.

Song Huizong said: "The matter is urgent, I have made up my mind, you can accept the order." Oh, because it happened suddenly, and because it was not yet clear, I made an exception and allowed you to send the forbidden army to help. (To be continued.) )
