Chapter 1223: Obstinate Action

The overnight incident in the East Market did not spread until the curfew was lifted at dawn, causing an uproar.

Jiang Du didn't really pass the test with fake evidence. He dared to come to such a scene blatantly, so he naturally opened up the joints on the side of Dongshi early, so he was able to search for an hour and a half. After digging three feet into the ground, he not only found Shi Siming's groveling letter, but also found a lot of evidence related to Fan Yang's side from the corpse. Therefore, he put the table into his arms, and immediately sent other evidence that could prove the identity of these people to Jingzhao Shao Yin Yuwen Trial, and then to Cui Peng, who was ten thousand years old.

When there was a mess outside, he had already gone back to his Chu State Mansion to lie down soundly and make up for sleep.

Because of his health, Li Longji, who still couldn't get to the early dynasty, was the last person to know the news. He never thought that he would plan to let people contact Fan Yang's messenger today and ask him to beat the Dengwen drum, so that the province would not be able to hide this letter, and he could justifiably show favor to Fan Yang as the Son of Heaven. But a night attack turned out to be the incident of Fan Yang's messenger sending the table, turning into a Fan Yang traitor sneaking into Chang'an to plot a misdeeds, he glared angrily at Gao Lishi, who came to report the news in person, trembling and raising his hand to say something, but in the end, one hand fell down again.

"Prepare for the shoulders, I want to go to the political hall"

The Son of Heaven is gathering manpower among the new eunuchs in the Xingqing Hall for his own use, of course Gao Lishi knows, but after all, he has served Li Longji for so many years, and he can't bear to report the news when the Son of Heaven only has the last little time left, so that he will lose the last bit of dignity, so he pretends not to know. However, he really didn't know about the contact between Li Longji and Fan Yang's messengers, but early in the morning, when he learned that Dongshige had killed more than ten traitors from Fan Yang, how could he, a fine person, not notice that something was wrong?

At this moment, in the face of the sudden love of the Son of Heaven, he wanted to persuade him, but Li Longji covered his shoulders and his face twitched violently.

"Lux, for so many years, you have followed me for so many years, and now you refuse to even rely on me for this little thing?"

Gao Lishi only felt a chuckle in his heart, and when he saw that Li Longji's face even showed a somewhat pleading expression, he unconsciously softened. After all, he is a slave of the Son of Heaven, and all the wealth and glory are given by Li Longji, and the previous time in the Sixteen Princes' Mansion, he went and returned, which was tantamount to pushing Li Longji on the edge of the cliff, and at this time, if he disobeyed the will of the gods, he really couldn't do it. So, he could only sigh secretly, took a step back and bowed down and promised: "Everyone is serious, the old slave will arrange it." ”

Seeing that Gao Lishi really responded and left, Li Longji calmed down a little. Since his family knows his own affairs, he knows very well that since Ma Weiyi was stimulated, his health has been very poor, and he was shot by Yongwang Li, a rebel, although he did not hit the vital point, but his body was further weakened, and now he is just living one day at a time. But the more this happened, the more he calculated the remaining chips in his heart, and finally took a deep breath, with a fierce determination on his face.

In the political hall, in the face of the turmoil after the night battle in Dongshi, Pei Kuan was also anxious. Wei Jiansu, the secretary of the Ministry of Justice, Qi Chao, Helan Jinming, who had just been promoted to the Imperial Doctor, and several Shangshu waiters, all of them came in person, and the conversation was nothing more than asking what was going on. But Jiang Du, who was the initiator, was nowhere to be seen, he could only secretly scold this guy for acting arbitrarily, but he couldn't put everything on Jiang Du's head, so he could only claim that he had already gotten the tip, saying that it was a traitor who sneaked into Chang'an to make trouble. But at this moment, a small official outside suddenly hurried in.

"Xiangguo, Your Majesty Xià has arrived"

Since Li Longji was almost assassinated and killed by Yongwang Li in the Sixteen Princes' Mansion, this Son of Heaven has been raised in the Xingqing Palace, and several ministers have only invited him for the purpose of exploring the life and death of the Son of Heaven. At this moment, knowing that Li Longji came unexpectedly, people looked at each other at the same time, and finally all looked at Pei Kuan.

"I don't know what's going on. Now that His Majesty is here, I'll go out and greet him. ”

No matter what kind of slander there is against the Son of Heaven, as long as Li Longji is on the throne for a day, it is not good for the ministers to really ignore the Son of Heaven, and no one disagrees for a while. When they got outside and saw the Son of Heaven on his shoulder, whose face was almost as pale as his beard, everyone had mixed feelings. It's just that a few months ago, at those court meetings and celebrations in the first month, this son of heaven, who was over seventy years old, was so high-spirited that he almost didn't see his old age, but now he completely lost his spirit. However, when they saluted unevenly and welcomed Li Longji into the political affairs hall, Li Longji, who sat down in the center on his shoulder, suddenly widened his eyes.

At that moment, these old ministers who were most familiar with the Son of Heaven were keenly aware that Li Longji's eyes showed a hint of determination, as if the Son of Heaven who held great power in the past had returned.

"I heard that Dongshi killed Fan Yang's traitors last night, which Aiqing can tell me what happened?"

Seeing Li Longji's gaze sweeping towards him, Qi Chao had been degraded for many years because of Li Linfu's jealousy, and he couldn't bear the power of the Son of Heaven; Wei Jiansu is a notoriously good old man, and he doesn't know it at all; Helan Jinming was already a little jealous and malicious towards Du Shiyi's power; Wang Jin was a little annoyed by being kept in the dark. As for the others, if their reputation and prestige are not as good, they will not be the first to be the first bird. Seeing that everyone else was silent, Pei Kuan had to cough lightly, planning to come forward to make a round. But who knew that at this moment, a cautious voice suddenly came from outside.

"Your Majesty, Xiangguo, all the ministers, the servant Shaoqing and the inner and outer stables make Du Youlin ask to see."

Hearing that Du Youlin was coming, Pei Kuan finally breathed a sigh of relief. Although it is not Jiang Du himself to explain what is going on, Jiang Du is an in-law, and Du Youlin is Du Shiyi's youngest son, so he can always relieve everyone's doubts at this moment. So, so relieved, he even forgot to ask the Son of Heaven, and immediately commanded: "Quickly invite Du Shaoqing in." ”

Pei Kuan, an old minister whose career has run through Kaiyuan Tianbao, has suddenly ignored the Son of Heaven, and others don't know that he forgot Li Longji's savings because he was in a hurry, but tasted something else. As for Li Longji himself, his forehead was bruised, and he endured it again and again before he didn't get angry immediately. He knows very well that if once he becomes popular, his ** and spirit will not be able to afford it, and his trip to the political hall today will be in vain

Therefore, it wasn't until Du Youlin entered the door and saluted meticulously that he suppressed his feelings and repeated the question he had just asked Pei Kuan and the ministers.

"The minister knew that His Majesty, Pei Xiangguo and everyone were going to inquire about the East Market, so he took the liberty to come to the political hall to ask for a meeting."

Last night, he was still discussing with his mother how to dig out these Fan Yang messengers, who knew that overnight, Jiang Du actually killed all the people with thunder, Du Youlin was shocked, so he naturally decided to take this matter on himself first.

At this moment, he first explained why he came, and then bowed down and said: "Chang'an has escaped from the hands of the rebels, and it has only been more than two months, and Luoyang and the prefectures and counties of Henan Province are only newly recovered. The four armies at the north gate of the palace have been reduced by more than half compared with before, and the Jin Wuwei who patrolled the city also suffered heavy losses because of the battle to defend the city, so while the minister was training the flying dragon cavalry, he also ordered people to secretly visit the streets, so as to prevent the traitors from mixing into Chang'an, and as a result, there were really more than ten rebels sneaking into Chang'an and plotting against him. ”

Du Youlin took care of everything and said that the rebels were his own people, Pei Kuan didn't know what was going on, and thought it was really the case, and he was immediately relieved. Although the others exchanged glances with each other, none of them questioned it aloud, and even Helan Jinming opened his mouth and finally cautiously decided to remain silent for the time being. And Li Longji couldn't help but be annoyed anymore, he suddenly snorted coldly, slapped the armrest with his hand that could still move, and suddenly sat up straight.

"The rebels infiltrated Chang'an and plotted against it? How do you know that they are plotting against each other, instead of having a heart of remorse and specially coming to Chang'an to ask for surrender? ”

Last night, my mother pierced this layer of window paper to herself, and now she asked herself shamelessly today, even if Du Youlin had a good temper, he couldn't help but feel angry. He took a deep breath, and actually raised his head directly to look at Li Longji and said, "Repentance? His Majesty's statement is absurd, the thief received the great grace of His Majesty, the three towns of Fanyang and Pinglu in the east of the river, Shi Siming also received the grace of His Majesty, gave him a surname and a name, and commanded a heavy army, but the thief rebelled, how could he have any persuasion? After the thief occupied Luoyang, the states and counties of Hebei raised the banner of rebellion anyway, if he had the heart to repent at that time, he should respond to the righteousness, but what about him, the thief said, he led the army back to Hebei, and the knife did not know how many loyal ministers and righteous soldiers he had killed Now seeing that the army in front of him has won a battle, at this time, His Majesty has mentioned what they want to surrender, where are the many soldiers and civilians who have died in the world, and where are the loyal ministers and righteous soldiers who have been killed? ”

Du Youlin has not participated in the imperial examination for so many years, only served as an idle Guanglucheng, or made great contributions in the battle of Chang'an to defend the city, and because of the strong support of his father Du Shiyi, he moved to the servant Shaoqing, and he also knew the internal and external idle stables. Except for Pei Kuan, others have very little contact with him, and they always feel that the tiger father and dog son are not worth mentioning, and at this moment, seeing him suddenly show such a sharp edge, not to mention the surprise of the Son of Heaven, how can they not be surprised?

Li Longji met Du Shiyi's eldest son Du Guangyuan at the beginning, and knew that he was a brave general, and he also met Du Youlin, who was the second son, but he only felt that people were soft and easy to deal with. He forcibly suppressed the fishy sweetness surging in his throat, and said in a fierce voice: "Then if the war continues to be fought in the front, the lives of the soldiers who died are not their lives?" ”

Without waiting for Du Youlin to answer, he took out the letter he received yesterday from his sleeve and threw it on the ground: "This is the letter of surrender sent by Fan Yang's messenger to the palace, although it is not an official surrender, but it is enough to show that Shi Siming's sincerity has been decided, with Nanyang Wang Li as the main envoy and Wei Jiansu as the deputy envoy, going to Fanyang to contact the matter of surrender"

Du Youlin only felt that his heart was furious, and he actually arched his hand and said: "If Your Majesty insists on breaking through the momentum in front of you, when you are victorious, you must recruit the rebel general Shi Siming, so that he can survive and continue to possess Fan Yang, and the minister has nothing to say, but at that time, don't say that the countless Hebei soldiers and civilians who have suffered humiliation under the iron hooves of the traitors are the people of the world, and they will definitely be disappointed and the ministers will retreat."

Seeing that Du Youlin bowed deeply, he didn't even wait for the Son of Heaven to open his mouth and turned around and walked away, and all the ministers in the political hall looked at each other. Even if Helan Jinming couldn't help but slander what kind of son he was, even he had to admit that Du Youlin's words were not just a threat.

Li Longji may have no choice but to take this move, but it is really just as Du Youlin said, not all people in the world are blind and deaf, and I am afraid that this edict will not cause many waves
