Chapter 650: Borrowing a knife to kill

"Lord Yu, this is the home of Jiang Hongli, Jun of Jinning."

After leaving the Righteous Forbidden Mansion, Li Hongyu did not return to the guest house, but led people to a courtyard in Seoul, and an accompanying official of the Righteous Forbidden Mansion pointed to the courtyard gate and bowed down.

"What are you waiting for?" Li Hongyu glanced at the doorman who was standing at the door at a loss, and coldly shouted to the official who was in the name of the forbidden mansion.

"This ......"

The official's face suddenly turned embarrassed when he heard this, the reason why the Jiang family was okay was because of Li Hui's protection.

The news of Jiang Hongli's reduction of gold shook the North Korean officialdom that year, and the North Korean Chengzheng Yuan and the Beibian Division immediately launched the Joseon King Li Hui and requested the arrest of the family members of Jiang Hongli and other generals.

However, Li Hui refused to approve it on the grounds that "Hongli and others are just showing their feelings, and there is nothing to do about betraying the country," which made the Korean civilian clique feel very dissatisfied.

In fact, not only Li Kun, but also many North Korean officials believe that Li Hui's policy of combining the left and right of the Ming Dynasty and the Later Jin Dynasty saved Korea from military disasters for a while, but it violated traditional Confucian ethics and was not good for North Korea in the long run.

It was after the Salhu War that the power of the Westerners expanded rapidly, and many North Korean officials opposed the "pro-Yi" policy of Li Hui's friendship with Houjin.

"So, what are you waiting for?" Seeing that the official was hesitating, Li Liang couldn't help but shout in a deep voice, thinking that he was simply a fool, and at this time he naturally had to obey Li Hongyu's orders.

"The subordinate obeys." The official suddenly came back to his senses when he heard this, and hurriedly bowed to Li Hongyu, and then waved at the soldiers of the Righteous Forbidden Mansion behind him, and those soldiers rushed into the courtyard gate.

For a while, the chickens and dogs of the Jiang Mansion jumped, and it was a mess, and the old and young of the Jiang family were quickly gathered in the front yard, looking frightened and trembling, not knowing what fate awaited them.

"Jiang Hongli's second son is here?" Li Hongyu paced twice in front of the crowd and asked the official who had previously been banned from the palace.

"Lord Hui, the second son of Jin Ningjun accompanied him in his crusade against the barbarians, and it is said that he died on the battlefield." The official of the nominal forbidden government did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly bowed down and answered.

"Dead in battle? Hum! ”

Li Hongyu immediately sneered when he heard this, and said in a cold voice, "Who said this?" ”

"This ......" The official of the forbidden government was suddenly speechless again, and fine beads of sweat oozed from his forehead, he couldn't tell Li Hongyu that the news was announced by Li Hui.

"Put them in prison, and you won't see anyone without the permission of your own officials!" Li Hongyu knew that the official of the forbidden government was just a small role, so he didn't mean to embarrass him, and then ordered in a deep voice.

"The petty officer obeys." The official of the forbidden government couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and hurriedly bowed in response.

At the same time that the Jiang family was taken to the Righteous Forbidden Mansion, Gyeongbokgung Palace.

"Your Royal Highness, the envoys of the Ming Dynasty sent people to break into Jin Ningjun's house, and Jin Ningjun's family is afraid that there will be more than one luck." Li Erzhan hurriedly came to see Li Hui and hurriedly reported to Li Hui, who was reading the recital.

"What should come always comes!"

Li Hui was slightly stunned when he heard this, and then put down the piece in his hand and said helplessly, Jiang Hongli was the commander of the Korean army during the Salhu War, how could Da Ming let him go?

"Jin Ningjun is now with the barbarians, and he has contributed a lot to the peaceful coexistence between us and the barbarians, if something happens to his family, how can we explain to him?"

Li Erzhan looked at Li Hui worriedly, because the Ming envoys came too suddenly, they simply did not have time to settle Jiang Hongli's family.

"The two scholars of Daming came in person, and non-ordinary officials can curry favor, and we should not be too involved in this matter."

Li Hui couldn't help but sigh when he heard this, his expression was very helpless, now is an extraordinary time, where does he dare to shelter Jiang Hongli's family, if he is implicated, it will be a big trouble.

"But we just watched the Jiang family being killed?" Li Erzhan's expression darkened, and he said a little unwillingly, if the Jiang family died, it would definitely force Jiang Hongli to break with North Korea.

"I hope it doesn't come to this!" Li Hui frowned and said, Jiang Hongli has a lot of evidence of his fornication with Houjin, and once it is announced, the consequences will be unimaginable.

If the family members of Kim Kyung-rui and other generals can still have a way to live, then the family members of Jiang Hongli, who is the commander-in-chief, will definitely die, and Jiang Hongli needs to be responsible for the defeat and surrender of the North Korean army, otherwise it will be difficult to convince the public.

"Your Highness, the two liaison officers of the Ming Dynasty are here." Not long after, while Li Hui and Li Erzhan were studying countermeasures, an attendant came to report quickly.

When Li Hui heard this, he suddenly had an ominous premonition in his heart, Li Hongyu and Zhao Xin must have come here at this time for Jiang Hongli and Jin Jingrui and other generals.

"Your Royal Highness, the lord will avoid it first." Li Erzhan knew that it was inconvenient for him to stay here, so he bowed to Li Hui and stepped back, and waited in the side room.

"I've seen two adults." Afterwards, Li Hui tidied up her appearance, went out to greet Li Hongyu and Zhao Xin, and saluted the two with a smile on her face in the courtyard.

"The king of Joseon doesn't need to greet him in the future, I can't afford to hold a lowly official position." Seeing this, Li Hongyu bowed his hand to Li Hui and said in a deep voice.

In his opinion, although the tributary system of Ming Taizu established the Ming Empire with a vast territory, due to the limitations of character and knowledge, Ming Taizu did not manage it carefully, nor did he give enough respect to those vassal states, and regarded himself as a foreign country everywhere.

In this way, how can those vassal states be of the same mind as the Ming Dynasty, and how can those vassal states be integrated into the Ming Dynasty?

Li Hongyu and Zhao Xin are only liaison officers, not envoys of the Ming Dynasty who act on orders, so Li Hui, who is the king of Joseon, does not need to greet him in person, according to the Ming vassal system, the two of them have to salute Li Hui.

Compared with the officials of the Ming Dynasty who regarded themselves as the superior kingdom of the Celestial Empire, Li Hongyu was more pragmatic, and instead of saving face, it was better to do some practical things in a down-to-earth manner, thinking about how to make North Korea the most stable vassal of the Ming Dynasty.

"Two adults, please." Li Hui didn't take Li Hongyu's words to heart, thinking that he was just being polite, so he smiled and made a gesture of please, and invited Li Hongyu and Zhao Xin into the palace.

"I wonder why the two adults came this time?" After the female official served the fragrant tea, Li Hui looked at Li Hongyu with a smile and asked, he knew that Li Hongyu's official position was higher than Zhao Xin's.

"King of Joseon, how do you plan to deal with Jiang Hongli's matter?" Li Hongyu didn't talk to Li Huixu and the snake, but asked straight to the point.

"Although Jin Ningjun surrendered to the barbarians after the defeat, he was in order to preserve his troops in order to make a comeback, but he himself did not surrender to the barbarians, and he has been detained by the barbarians for this."

Li Hui suddenly smiled bitterly in his heart when he heard this, it seemed that things that should come would always come, so he muttered for a while and replied solemnly, "Xiao Wang feels that although the crime he committed is unforgivable, it is excusable, and I hope that the adults will see it!" ”

"Didn't submit to the barbarians?" Li Hongyu sneered when he heard this, "He let his son marry the daughter of Jiannu Da Baylor, isn't this a surrender?" ”

"This ......"

Li Hui was taken aback, he never thought that Li Hongyu would know about this matter, you must know that even there are very few people in the Korean country who know about this, and then asked tentatively, "My lord, Xiao Wang has never heard of this matter, I don't know if this news is reliable." ”

"This is true, didn't the king of Joseon get the slightest rumor?" How could Li Hongyu believe that Li Hui didn't know about this, so he asked in a deep voice.

"Back to my lord, Xiao Wang really hasn't heard a little rumor, if he knows, he will definitely not let go of his family." Li Hui hurriedly waved his hand and replied seriously.

In fact, Li Hui, who knew about Jiang Hongli's second son marrying Daishan's adopted daughter, immediately took measures to block the news, so as not to be known by the outside world, and secretly sent a congratulatory gift.

In Li Hui's view, having Jiang Hongli maneuvering with Houjin will be more conducive to the peaceful coexistence of Houjin and North Korea, so as not to break out between the two sides.

"Now that the king of Joseon knows that Jiang Hongli betrayed the Ming Dynasty and North Korea, and surrendered to Jiannu in order to steal his life, how should he deal with this matter?"

Li Hongyu naturally wouldn't bother with Li Hui about such an inconsequential matter, looked at him and asked in a deep voice, making it clear that he wanted Li Hui to severely punish Jiang Hongli.

"Jin Ningjun, no, Jiang Hongli is on the verge of treason, his crime is unforgivable, he is sentenced to death, and his family members are guilty of the same crime, and they are beheaded all over the house."

The muscles on Li Hui's face couldn't help twitching, he didn't expect Li Hongyu to solve the problem so straightforwardly, so he said with a solemn expression after a deep groan.

In ancient times, if a general, especially a commander, who led a battle, even if he made a big mistake in battle, his family would be properly taken care of by the king.

On the contrary, if he defects to the enemy army on the battlefield, then his family will definitely be implicated and beheaded, and Jiang Hongli's treason will naturally end up like this once it is confirmed.

"The envoy also thinks so, this Jiang Hongli is really hateful, and he wants to make his evil deeds known to the world, so that the people of the world will spit on his cowardly behavior."

Li Hongyu saw that Li Hui's face was a little pale, knowing that he was unwilling to kill Jiang Hongli's family but could not do anything, he suddenly sneered in his heart, and then said quietly, let everyone in North Korea know Jiang Hongli's evil deeds of being greedy for life and afraid of death, and betraying the country for glory.

"Xiao Wang, let people post notices to the whole country."

Although he was reluctant in his heart, Li Hui could only act according to Li Hongyu's words now, and said to Li Hongyu solemnly, so that he and Jiang Hongli were about to break up, God knows if Jiang Hongli would say something that should not be said.

"King of Joseon, the notice has been written by the official, and if the king of Joseon thinks it is okay, he will use a seal on it, and then ask someone to copy it to the eight ways of North Korea to post."

Li Hongyu naturally wanted to see Li Hui and Jiang Hongli fall out, so he said to Li Hui quietly, and the entourage standing aside immediately took a written notice to the king of Joseon.

Li Hui's face became more and more ugly after reading the content of the notice, and the notice not only scolded Jiang Hongli, who was greedy for life and afraid of death, but also ordered Jiang Hongli's family to be beheaded in his name, and designated Jiang Hongli as a "great rebel sinner", which didn't provoke Jiang Hongli's hatred for him.

As for Da Ming, there was not a word mentioned in the notice, as if how Jiang Hongli was dealt with had nothing to do with Da Ming, so he borrowed a knife to kill people!
