Chapter 456: Zhenbei Hou

On the 27th day of the lunar month, there were still officials who kept making suggestions to Xuanzong to impeach Zhao Ziliang, which made Xuanzong very annoyed, so he had to convene several prime ministers in the Huaqing Palace on the afternoon of the 27th of the lunar month to discuss the matter.

Xuanzong was wearing a fur cloak, his hair was scattered, and his hair was still steaming, obviously just coming out of the Huaqingchi Hot Spring, Yang Yuhuan was wearing a white mink fur and snuggled up to his side, his face was flushed, and his beautiful eyes were shining.

Seeing this, Li Heng, Li Linfu, Li Shizhi, Wang Ju and others immediately visited: "The ministers and others meet Your Majesty and the concubine!" ”

"Excuse me!" Xuanzong raised his hand, sat down on the throne and said, "All the Qing family should sit down, come here, give the seat!" ”

"No!" Gao Lishi hurriedly agreed, and quickly arranged for the little eunuchs to move chairs, Li Heng and the others thanked him and then sat down on the chairs brought by the eunuchs, and Yang Zhao relied on his relationship with Yang Yuhuan, and went in and out of the palace every day these days, and patted Xuanzong every time, and Xuanzong also looked at him differently because he was Yang Yuhuan's cousin, and allowed him to follow him.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I have made it very clear in the court a few days ago, I want to spend the New Year quietly, but those officials don't want me to live in peace, you see, in the past four days, there have been many officials who have written to impeach Zhao Ziliang, a total of more than 20 impeachment notes, do these people not want me to be comfortable in their hearts to be happy? Li Linfu, you say, don't these people act based on your face? ”

Li Linfu was startled, got up from the chair and knelt on the ground with a plop, shouting that he was wronged: "Your Majesty, the old minister is wronged, don't hide it from Your Majesty, the old minister and Zhao Ziliang have some different political views, and they are also quite complaining about what he did in Mobei, but the old minister has no personal grudge with him, if the old minister can instigate one or two officials to impeach him, it is normal, but the old minister has no ability to instigate more than ten or twenty officials to impeach him!" The reason why Zhao Ziliang was impeached by so many officials was completely his own fault, who let him kill in Mobei? You must know that this kind of behavior is contrary to the teachings of my saints, and it is not tolerated by the righteous people! Those officials in the DPRK and China have always regarded themselves as defenders, and of course they cannot tolerate Zhao Ziliang's indiscriminate killing of innocents! Your Majesty, now the government and the opposition, and even the folk market are talking about Zhao Ziliang's massacre in Mobei, and the crowd is excited, and there is news that many people are ready to organize themselves to petition in front of the palace gate, asking Your Majesty to cure Zhao Ziliang's crimes, so as to eliminate the anger of the people! After hearing about this, Weichen immediately sent people to persuade them to disband and go home, saying that the court had already been told by the people about this matter. Your Majesty, the sage said, 'It is better to defend against the mouth of the people than to prevent the Sichuan!' It is impossible to silence the people, and if they do not find a way to eliminate the anger of the people, they will gather in front of the palace gate, or even block the palace gate, and then the consequences will be unimaginable! ”

When Yang Yuhuan heard Li Linfu's words, his heart suddenly lifted, and he couldn't help but ask: "Li Xiang, General Zhao was born and died in the ice and snow of Mobei, and his blood-stained robes opened up the territory for the Tang Dynasty and shocked the people!" Where did he offend you? Why did you frame him again and again? Didn't you say that the prime minister could hold the boat in his belly? As the right minister of the current dynasty, why can't you let General Zhao go? Ancient fashion and Lin Xiangru and Lian Po released their suspicions, and the story of joining forces to fight against Qiang Qin left a good story for future generations, are you not as good as the ancients? ”

Yang Yuhuan is worthy of being a talented woman, these words are almost word for word, Li Linfu was so frightened that his face turned pale, his forehead was sweating, and he kowtowed again and again to ask for sin: "Niangniang is angry, the old minister deserves death, he should not make Niangniang angry, please forgive the mother, the old minister will go back and scold those officials one by one, scolding them so bloody, how can General Zhao be such a loyal and brave person, how can he be slandered like this!" ”

Li Linfu is often by Xuanzong's side, and he knows too well the importance and influence of Yang Yuhuan to Xuanzong, as long as she speaks, Xuanzong has nothing to disagree, and against the noble concubine, nine lives are not enough to cut! He scolded himself in his heart, why was he so stupid, and he forgot Yang Yuhuan, a woman who had a great influence on Xuanzong? Now it has left a bad impression in her heart, and she is afraid that she will not have good fruit to eat in the future!

Yang Yuhuan asked again: "What if those people don't give up?" ”

Xuanzong couldn't help but want to laugh when she asked this, she made it clear that she wanted to embarrass Li Linfu.

Li Linfu was stunned for a moment, his eyes rolled, and he immediately said: "If they don't give up, the old minister will be at their house, crying and making trouble from house to house, hanging themselves, and if they don't let them celebrate the New Year, the old minister won't believe that they can bear it!" ”

This Li Linfu will be amused, Yang Yuhuan couldn't help but almost laugh out loud when he heard his words, and hurriedly covered his cherry mouth and stopped squeaking.

Xuanzong held Yang Yuhuan's hand and pressed it hard, signaling to her to feel at ease, and then instructed Li Linfu: "Li Linfu, this matter will be handed over to you, I don't want to have a bad New Year!" ”

Li Linfu hurriedly agreed: "Yes, yes, the old minister must handle this matter well!" ”

At this time, a little eunuch walked in and reported: "Your Majesty, Shan Yu Du Hu Mansion Du Hu, Hedong Left Wing Soldiers and Horses Envoy sent envoy Zheng San to meet Your Majesty!" ”

"Oh?" Xuanzong and Yang Yuhuan glanced at each other, and then looked at the reactions of Li Linfu, Li Heng and others, before saying to the little eunuch: "Xuan Zheng San is here!" ”

"Yes!"

With the eunuch's shrill summons, the sound of Zheng San's audience spread from Huaqing Palace to the foot of Lishan Mountain, and Zheng San only tidied up his clothes and followed a eunuch up the stone stairs to the steps after hearing it, and walked towards Huaqing Palace step by step.

"Minister Zheng San greets Your Majesty, long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

Xuanzong raised his hand: "No courtesy, flat body!" Zheng San, what did Zhao Ziliang ask you to see? ”

Zheng San said: "Your Majesty, in the autumn of this year, General Zhao led six thousand iron cavalry to conquer Mobei, defeated Xi and Khitan, exterminated their clans, and cut off their roots, the purpose is to deter the Mobei tribes, so that they dare not easily invade my Tang territory!" The general said that in September this year, when His Majesty's 60th birthday, he had no merit in Hedong, and there was no gift for His Majesty's birthday, and now he broke the Khitan and Xi people, from the north of the clouds to the Dule bank for thousands of miles for my Datang land, seized its cattle, sheep and horses innumerable, and sent Weichen to His Majesty to send 3,000 cattle, 5,000 sheep, and 5,000 war horses as a belated gift, wishing His Majesty the spirit of dragon horses, dragon body Kangtai, wishing the Tang Dynasty eternal solidity, and national peace and security! ”

Xuanzong was greatly excited and excited when he heard it, and he was very happy, he slapped the royal case violently, and said emotionally: "Okay, Zhao Ziliang can lead the army to the Dule River, and chase the story of Huo Hu's Feng Wolf Juxu Mountain, these 3,000 cows, 5,000 sheep and 5,000 war horses, I have accepted them!" Very good, no courtier has ever given me such a gift, and he Zhao Ziliang is the first time! Hahaha······".

Seeing Xuanzong so happy, this has not been a thing for a long time, several confidants and ministers present got up to congratulate Xuanzong, and Li Linfu gave full play to his ability to meet and pat horses, "Your Majesty, if General Zhao's merits are directly after Huo Huscai, and Your Majesty's merits are much greater, if it weren't for Your Majesty's insight to recognize Zhao Ziliang's pearl, how could he achieve such great credit?" If Zhao Ziliang is compared to Huo Hussar, then His Majesty's exploits are not inferior to Emperor Xiaowu of the Han Dynasty, and even surpassed! Your Majesty, please think about it, Emperor Wu had peerless generals such as Huo Quzhi, Wei Qing, Li Guang, etc., and His Majesty also had Li Yuan, King of Xin'an, Zhang Shouqi, Duke of Nanyang County, Wang Hui, Duke of Zhongshan County, Guo Zhiyun, Duke of Taiyuan County, Zhang Renyuan, and now there are Zhao Ziliang, Wang Zhongsi, Huangfu Weiming, Fumeng Lingjing, Zhang Qiu and Qiong, An Lushan and other famous generals to assist, so that my Tang Tianwei is far and wide! Taizong has the rule of Zhenguan from time to time, and now His Majesty has Kaiyuan and Tianbao Shengshi, and the title of Emperor of the Ages is not enough to shine on His Majesty's cultural and martial arts! ”

Xuanzong was very excited when he heard this, and he laughed, but he still waved his hand and said modestly: "How can I be compared to Emperor Taizong and Emperor Xiaowu of Han?" ”

As he spoke, he immediately opened Chrysostom and said: "Wang Ju, you come to draft an edict, Zhao Ziliang has a meritorious service in pacifying the Khitan, Xi Ren, and is a general of Zhongwu, a marquis of the town of Bei, and a soldier and horse envoy of the governor of Hedong, and a single protector of the capital!" ”

Everyone else was dumbfounded, only Li Shizhi, the left minister, frowned and said: "Your Majesty, it is reasonable to promote Zhao Ziliang to the rank of general of Zhongwu and promote him to the commander of the Hedong Metropolitan Army, with his merits, he is enough to promote two levels of military rank and one level of official position, but is it too much to be a feudal marquis?" ”

Marquis of Zhenbei, this is a famous marquis, Zhao Ziliang was named Jiangling County male after the defeat of Tubo in Hexi, and Huangfu Weiming was also canonized as Linyao County male, the county male This is almost the lowest title, with Zhao Ziliang and Huangfu Weiming's merits at that time are enough to be crowned marquis, but Wang Zhonghei was named Qingyuan County Duke by Xuanzong this year, and the county duke is several levels higher than the county man, which shows that Xuanzong still has a difference in his heart, after all, Wang Zhongsi was brought up by him in the palace, which is almost equivalent to his adopted son, However, Huangfu Weiming was born in the mansion of Li Heng, the prince of the East Palace, and Zhao Ziliang turned out to be a commoner, and the status of both of them in Xuanzong's heart was not as good as Wang Zhonghei.

Xuanzong was very happy today, he didn't care about Wang Ju's questioning, waved his hand and smiled: "However, however, Emperor Xiaowu has a champion marquis, can't there be a Zhenbei marquis under my command?" ”

"Yes!" Wang Ju agreed, and immediately came to the table next to him to draft the holy decree.

Li Linfu hated it in his heart, but he could only smile and continue to pat his ass: "Your Majesty is wise, Emperor Xiaowu has a champion Hou, Your Majesty has a Zhenbei Hou, it sounds like the Zhenbei Hou is more imposing than this champion Hou!" ”

Xuanzong's canonization of Zhao Ziliang made Li Linfu almost stumble when he heard it, he didn't expect that he would shoot it down like this, and it would make Zhao Ziliang get a great benefit, not to mention that the military rank was promoted by two levels, and the official rank was promoted by one level, not to mention, he was also made a marquis, and he was also the Marquis of Zhenbei, and this title can open a mansion and build teeth.
