Chapter 550: Is it a great loyalty or a great traitor
After Tian Xing "redressed the grievances", Tian Huaiji, the envoy of Jiedu, sincerely sent people to invite Mrs. Zhu and Tian Qi to return to Weizhou to live, but they were all refused. So he promoted Tian Muguan to one level, officially replaced Jiang Shize, and became the envoy of the Yanai army, still holding real power.
This was clearly a compromise between Chiang Shize and Lady Liang Guo, who had taken over the sprawling Shannan Society and should make a slight concession. But he also didn't want the military government to guard the power in the hands of the old faction, which was a direct threat to him, and Tian Mu was naΓ―ve and simple, so he could act as a buffer.
Tian Xing died a month after the grounding, Tian Huaizhi personally presided over, the ceremony was solemn, and the honor was extremely glorious.
Li Chun issued an edict posthumously gifted Tian Hongzheng Situ, sent the envoy to the sacrifice, and added an official to his son to show his compassion.
After the incident, Wang Chengyuan, the envoy of Chengde Jiedu, and Li Shidao, the envoy of Ziqing Jiedu, both sent delegations to participate in Tian Xing's sacrifice and expressed their recognition and support for Tian Huaiji.
Tian Xing was too close to the imperial court, and the two hated each other, and now the young marshal of Weizhou was in charge of the government, and the old lady came out to take care of things again, they were reassured, and they were relieved, and it was not difficult to understand this move.
Cheng Zhigong, the envoy of the Henghai Festival, and Zhang Maozhao, the envoy of the Yiwu Army, reacted indifferently to this, and only sent people to participate in Tian Xing's ceremony, and only congratulated Tian Huaiji, who was pro-government, but did not talk about anything else, did not support it, and did not oppose it.
Ying Mo observed that Wang Tingcuo also sent a mission, and when the mission arrived in Weizhou, Tian Xing had already been buried in the ground, and the envoy expressed his respect to Tian Huaiji, but did not say a word of condolences to Tian Xing's death.
Yingping observed that Luo Ke and Xue Rong, the envoy of Liaodong Jiedu, both sent people to participate in the Tianxing sacrifice, but they did not see Tian Huai's advice.
Li Mao took Qin Mo as an envoy and led a large delegation to solemnly pay tribute to Tian Xing, and Qin Mo then met with Tian Huaizhi and expressed his support for his pro-government, and Tian Huaizhi agreed that Youzhou and Weizhou should set up permanent envoys to each other, strengthen communication, and protect the business convenience and legitimate rights and interests of their respective merchants.
Qin Mo did not see Jiang Shize, who had recently risen in Wei Bo's military and political circles, nor did he see Tian Rong, who had been reinstated as the head of the Tianxiong Army.
When the news reached Chang'an, Li Chun was impressed by Li Mao, and he summoned Tutu Chengguang and asked: "Is Li Mao a loyal minister or a traitor." β
Wei Zhou's affairs have also been paying attention to Cheng Xuan, and he had expected Li Chun to have such a question, so he replied: "Great loyalty is like a traitor." β
Li Chun was stunned: "What kind of loyalty is like a traitor"
Tutu Chenghuang explained with a smile: "The affairs of Hebei are very complicated, and it is sometimes not easy to do it well, so you have to go around the bend with them. The purpose of Li Mao's move was to stabilize Wei Zhou and prevent him from becoming angry, and the dog jumped over the wall in a hurry, and when he saw his reality and reality, he suddenly approached him and killed him with a knife. β
Li Chun said: "Bullshit, should you be fighting with your skin, and you will be killed with a knife." It's just your opinion. β
Tutu Chengguang said: "I have evidence." β
Li Chunyi glared: "What evidence?"
Tutu Chengguang said with a smile: "After Tian Hongzheng was killed, Tian Ling went to Youzhou, and now he is running an errand under Li Mao, and he is very important. There are rumors in Youzhou that Li Mao is waiting for her filial piety to expire and accept her as a concubine. β
Li Chun's anger calmed down a little, he had heard of Tian Qi's name, this is a strange woman, when she was in Weizhou, she used Tian Hongzheng's power to do what she said, Tian Xing obeyed her, and she could do her things properly.
Tian Xing didn't listen to her for one thing, but he fell on this matter and lost his life.
"Tian Qian went to Youzhou, not to Hezhong Mansion or to Chang'an, the purpose is obvious, she wants to use Li Mao's hand to help his father avenge, and whether she succeeds or not, it is enough to prove that Li Mao and Weizhou are not of the same mind."
As soon as Cheng Xuan finished speaking, he suddenly found that Li Chun's eyes were staring at him like a knife, and he was chilled all over.
"When did you become his lobbyist, it's not easy."
Suddenly vomited and prostrate on the ground, covered like chaff, and did not dare to speak.
Li Chun believed in Buddhism earlier, and in the past two years, he believed in immortals, and often took pills, which helped him to dominate in the room but also ruined his temper, his temper was more and more impatient, and he started a fire to shake the earth.
Killing people and demoting officials in anger is often a matter of one sentence, and if you don't care about degrading officials, when he is angry, he can be recovered, if he is killed in a daze, who will pick up the severed head
Whenever he lost his temper, he could only tremble on the ground, and he would never dare to say half a word of nonsense.
But this time the thunderous anger did not come, Li Chun held back his anger, and only said coldly: "You said that he was a loyal minister, but I didn't believe it, and immediately drafted a decree to summon him to Chang'an to meet him, I want to see if his heart is loyal or treacherous." β
Suddenly, Chenghuang responded again and again, and crawled to the Hanlin Academy to announce the decree, and just got off the palace, but saw the crown prince Li Heng walking quickly under the guidance of the two eunuchs.
Suddenly, Chenghuang's heart suddenly pinched: It's really a narrow road, and he actually met a sworn enemy here.
In the past, the prince Li Ning died violently, Tutu Chengguang recommended Li Yun, the king of Yan, to be the prince, Guo Guifei recommended her son Li You to be the prince, after the wrestling, Li You won, changed his name to Li Heng, and was made the prince, Li Yun is still his king of Yan, but Tutu Chenghuang was demoted to the end and became a palace slave.
Now, he is making a comeback, but the prince's position is becoming more and more stable, and the prince has become a sword hanging over his head, making him uneasy and honestly afraid.
There is nowhere to avoid, Tutu Chenghuang can only step forward to see it, but Li Heng is full of smiles, affectionately helped Tutu Chengxuan, held his hand, and asked with a smile: "How are you feeling?"
Tu Tu Chengxuan's mind turned, and he hurriedly responded: "The dragon's heart is very happy." β
Li Heng breathed a sigh of relief, patted Chengxuan's hand suddenly, and said, "That's good, that's good, thank you, thank you." β
He let go of Tu Tu Chengguang's hand, straightened his clothes, and solemnly returned the salute, and then walked up the stairs and behaved calmly and generously.
Tu Tu Chenghuang turned around and looked at the prince's back, feeling stunned, he thought that Li Heng would glare at him, ridicule him, and even deliberately make things difficult for him, but nothing, the prince could treat him like a nobody.
The prince is ripe, rounded, deep, and more difficult to deal with than before.
Tu Tu Chengguang looked at the blue sky, looked around at the majestic palace, and suddenly felt confused in his heart, he lived so big, spent more than half of his time here, this should have been the place that could make him feel at ease, but now he felt completely strange here, strangeness gave rise to fear, and he was chilled by fear.
He suddenly remembered the years in Liaodong, which was not a paradise, but the closest place to heaven.
The official edict had not yet been drafted, and the top-secret news that the imperial court was going to recruit Li Mao into the court had already been placed on the desk of the envoy of Youzhou Jiedu.
This is the credit of Youzhou's Shangdu Jinjuan Academy, and it is another great achievement made by Chen Muyang.
Youzhou Festival makes the Fuzhong Hall.
Jiedu made Li Mao recline on the soft chair, and Judge Qin Mo sat diagonally opposite him.
Both of them looked relaxed and slightly tired.
Qin Mo was dominant in the boudoir last night, in Qi's room in the first half of the night, and in the second half of the night in He Lan's bed, his sister-in-law and sister-in-law were both equally tender and charming, which made him want to stop, he could only hold on to the end, fortunately, there was no shame in fighting all night, so although he was physically tired, he was still psychologically happy.
Li Mao also stayed up all night last night, and the Xiongwu army stationed in Yanzhou was jealous that the food of the Shence army was richer than that of the border army, so they deliberately found fault and made it difficult, and the soldiers on both sides made an appointment to fight outside the city, killing two people, seriously wounding eight, and wounding hundreds.
Whether it is the Xiongwu Army or the Shence Army, they are all under the control of the Jiedu envoys stationed in Youzhou.
Fights are commonplace in the barracks, Li Mao didn't want to take care of it, but he took his life, and it was the Xiongwu Army and the Shence Army against each other, and if it didn't make trouble, there would be a big mess.
Li Mao ordered Xia Ren to send people to escort the twenty military academies who took the lead in making trouble to Youzhou, and summoned Yan Qin, the leader of the two armies, and the manor, to meet with the army Sima Chang Mucang, and the military academy made Xia Ren face to face and sentence the case. The two families are full of contradictions, for a long time, Li Mao is unwilling to act roughly, peeling off the cocoon and carefully pursuing the root cause of the contradiction, this progress is slow, from the afternoon until the early morning of the second day, the public case can be sorted out, the sentence that should be judged, the pardon that should be pardoned, until both sides are convinced.
After breakfast, Li Mao did not feel sleepy at all, so he struck while the iron was hot, and routinely met with several of the most important assistants to understand the situation and give the highest and latest instructions.
Qin Mo was one of his most important assistants and could see him in any situation.
Li Mao therefore put him in the last place, and Qin Mo didn't have anything particularly important, so he pulled around:
"Now it is certain that it was Zhang Xi, also known as Zhang Jiuwu, who murdered Huang Renzhong. He coaxed Huang Renzhong to deliver a letter to Tian Rong's mansion, and as soon as the people arrived, the guards arrested and killed. Huang Renzhong's henchmen were summoned by Zhang Jiuwu for a meeting, locked the door, lit a fire, and set up heavy troops outside the courtyard, and came out to kill one by one, but no one escaped the net. β
"I knew what you said a month ago, and there's nothing new about it. Don't waste my time. β
"Yes. Do you know how Zhang Xi died?"
"Didn't you let Jiang Shize set up an ambush to kill him?"
"Yes, but do you know how Jiang Shi set up an ambush to kill him?"
"Does it matter?"
"Not reusable, but fun. Jiang Shi coaxed him to discuss important matters, Zhang Jiuwu came, and when he arrived at the gate, he said that he was not allowed to bring weapons in, and the guards were not allowed to enter, so Zhang Jiuwu turned his head and left. The ambush was everywhere, and Jiang Shi stood on the wall to accuse Zhang Jiuwu of rebellion, and Zhang Jiuwu died. β
Li Mao was silent.
