Chapter 104: Mo Long resigns
Ge Congzhou was just an ordinary pioneer under Zhu Wen. Although he is extremely capable of fighting, Zhu Wen is very unfair to him, and today they entered Beijing, how could they have received such a great courtesy.
The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty celebrated it, and Li Ji issued edicts one after another as if the Buddha of the West Heaven had divided the scriptures.
Ge Congzhou, when Yangpo broke more than 10,000 enemies, the capital was safe, and the two towns of Bianzhou and Chenzhou were sealed.
Ding Hui was appointed as the envoy of the Zhaoyi Army and stationed in Huaizhou.
Guo Nianda was stationed in Haozhou by the commander of the Silver Spear Army, and Pan Da was stunned by the command of the Shence Army and stationed in Yique County.
Both Bianzhou and Chenzhou are important towns, especially Bianzhou, which was once the base camp of Zhu Wen. Guarded by Ge Congzhou, it shows grace.
In Bianzhou and Chenzhou, the imperial court sent its own officials to assassinate history, truly separating the military from the government, and rebuilding the grassroots political system.
In addition, Pei Shu, Kong Lin, Zhang Wenwei and others were sealed one by one. Kong Jie is the commander of the Left Dragon and Tiger Army and the commander of the Yulin Army, and Zhan Yunpeng is the commander of the Right Dragon and Tiger Army.
The bad guy was re-established, and Fan Gongbao changed back to his real name Fan Yao and commanded the position of bad marshal.
It was night, in the Ming'an Palace, Li Ji met Fan Yao alone.
Since the dissolution of the Sect of Bad People, Fan Yao has been incognito, and after three generations of emperors, he finally fulfilled his wish today.
As the emperor's most trusted person, the bad person is born for the emperor. One of their creeds is loyalty, so when Fan Yao saw Li Ji, his voice was choked: "Minister, bad guy Fan Yao, I've seen Your Majesty!"
Li Ji helped him up, and he was just as excited: "Fan Shuai, you have suffered for Datang."
Fan Yao wiped her tears: "The minister is not bitter, the first emperor is really bitter." It is the duty of the minister to be loyal to the Tang Dynasty, His Majesty is wise and martial, and the minister is really happy in his heart. ”
Li Ji smiled and patted him on the shoulder: "Come, sit."
The Tang Dynasty monarchs and ministers can sit together, so Fan Yao sat down. Li Ji also sat down: "There are only you and me here, I came to you to tell you." At present, although Zhu Wen is removed, Datang is still in danger. We only have two teams, the Ge Jiajun and the Zhaoyi Army, not to mention far away, if Li Ke uses it alone, the imperial court will not be able to resist, so I want you to recruit troops. ”
Fan Yao was taken aback: "Your Majesty wants to recruit soldiers?"
Li Ji nodded: "The defense of the capital is still empty, and I want to follow the example of the first emperor and recruit forbidden troops." Establish a Praetorian Guard for the Tang Dynasty that can fight and win battles. ”
This is easy to say, Zhaozong also recruited 100,000 forbidden troops in Chang'an to crusade against the feudal town, but it fell short.
Moreover, now the treasury has to cry even if the snitch goes in, and if you don't know it, you will throw in one or two copper plates, which means that the treasury has not a penny now.
"Your Majesty, money and food are needed to recruit soldiers." Fan Yao voiced his concerns.
"I know, don't worry about money, I have a solution." Li Ji said lightly: "There is really one more thing I want to ask you."
Fan Yao hurriedly stood up and arched his hand: "Just by His Majesty's orders!"
Li Ji looked lonely: "Mr. Mo Long is going to resign and return to his hometown, I need you to persuade him."
Fan Gongbao was even more shocked: "The minister and Mr. Mo Long are friends who are irreversible, and the minister can vouch for his name, and Mo Long has no two hearts for the people of the world." It's just that the minister doesn't know, why did he resign? ”
Mo Long did find Li Ji, and he was very resolute in his intention to return to Heyang Zanglong Mountain. No matter how Li Ji stays, Mo Long has to go.
Li Ji sighed: "It's all because of Zhu Wen's wife, Wei Guo's wife Zhang Hui."
Fan Yao suddenly remembered that Zhu Wen's wife Zhang Hui had forced Mo Long to swear a poisonous oath, and it was not for King Liang.
"Your Majesty is saying that Mo Long has promised the Lady of Guo Wei that he will become a great treasure in the future, and Mo Long will definitely do his best to assist. If someone else replaces him, Mo Long will return to his hometown? ”
Li Ji nodded: "I also only learned about Mr. Mo Long's hardship, and the situation forced him to do it as a last resort. This woman can also be regarded as a heroine among women, she is quite wise, and is known as the female Zhuge . But now is the time when I need talents, and as soon as Mo Long leaves, I have one less brainstorm. ”
Fan Yao smiled: "Your Majesty, forgive the minister." The reason why Mr. Mo Long wanted to leave was not simply because of the poisonous oath he made with Mrs. Wei Guo. ”
Li Ji was stunned: "Oh, how do you know?"
Fan Yao had a smile in his eyes: "Mo Long must have said that Your Majesty is both wise and brave, far above him Mo Long." What is the world's first talent, in front of His Majesty, it is just an axe. ”
Li Ji nodded in surprise: "That's what he said."
"That's right, don't hide it from Your Majesty, the minister sometimes thinks that His Majesty's intelligence is a bit unbelievable. Now that King Liang falls, His Majesty can handle the rest of the matter by himself. Brother Mo Long is used to being at ease, he thinks that there can be such a smart emperor in the world, and he wishes to go back to his kennel as soon as possible. ”
"But, but there are so many things in the world, I can be busy everywhere. No, you must leave Mo Long with me. Li Ji was not happy.
Fan Yao smiled and shook his head: "Your Majesty, this minister can't help you." If you look at him as a minister, let him go. ”
Li Ji was very helpless, he was very reluctant to keep Mo Long, but he also knew that this kind of person could not be retained, and he was displeased at the moment.
Fan Yao didn't care: "Your Majesty said that you can solve the problem of money and food for recruiting soldiers, how can this be solved?"
As soon as he mentioned this, Li Ji forgot about Mr. Mo Long for the time being: "Isn't there a copper mine in that Huangling Mountain in Yique County, which can be mined to enrich the country, I decided to arrange this fat difference to Pan Da stunned." This man is rude, but he is not corrupt, and it is most appropriate for him to do it. ”
When Fan Yao heard this, he was overjoyed: "Why didn't the minister think of this festival, just transfer the people who built a mausoleum for King Liang in Yique County, and we don't need to find anyone else, it's really a lot of work." Your Majesty is far-sighted, and Mr. Moron's retreat seems to be the right choice, hahahaha. ”
Li Ji snorted: "You just want to be tired to death, I haven't been sleeping for the past few days to review these recitals, and my head is big."
Speaking of Pan Da stunned, Fan Yao remembered something again: "Your Majesty, this Pan Da stunned fought bravely to kill the enemy on Dangyang Slope, and broke through the position of Zhu Youwen's Shenwu army first, and the minister wanted to ask for one thing for him."
Li Ji looked at him a little strangely: "What are you asking for for Pan Da to beg for?"
At that moment, Fan Yao sent the Empress Dowager's maid outside the palace to Ge Congzhou, and Pan Da was stunned and Wang Ba said about Mung Dou's fancy to the Empress Dowager's maid A Qian.
"Do you want me to be a matchmaker and propose marriage to him?" Li Ji glared at him, to be honest, he was a little reluctant in his heart. Although this Aqian Li Ji doesn't have a deep impression of her, after all, she is the queen mother's personal palace maid.
Fan Yao smiled: "If the Queen Mother is willing to give up her love to fulfill this good story, the minister thinks that Pan Da will definitely go to the soup for me and the Tang Dynasty will not hesitate."
This is an opportunity to win over the soldiers, and people like Pan Da are the masters of the gratitude. If the Queen Mother is willing to accomplish this beautiful deed, Pan Da will really swear allegiance to the Li family and the Tang Dynasty.
Li Ji pondered for a moment: "I can't be the master, so I'd better wait for me to ask the Queen Mother and listen to the Queen Mother's opinion."
