Chapter 327: The Absurd Prince (2)

Li Jing continued: In the more than ten years that Yuan Yan has been in Shudi, the law has been clear and clear, the law is enforced like a mountain, and he does not follow personal feelings, and there is no case he has tried that is not convincing, and even the people who were convicted by him said: "The Pyeongchang Gong sentenced us for our crimes, what else is there to disobey?" ”

In the thirteenth year of the opening of the emperor four years ago, Yuan Yan died in office, Yang Jian regretted it for a long time, and the people of Shu still miss him.

Shu is the far place of the Tiangao Emperor, since ancient times, there is a saying that the world has not been chaotic in Shu first, and the world has been in Shu before peace, which is the most suitable place for the emperor to be unearthed, so Yang Jian did not hesitate to send Yuan Yan to assist, or to supervise Yang Xiu. Even when Yuan Yan was still there, Yang Xiu dared to do something to take the courage of the living, after he died, Yang Xiu was left alone, and Sun Monkey turned against the sky, so naturally he had no scruples.

In the past three or four years, Yang Xiu's craftsmen have made things that can only be used by the Son of Heaven, such as armillary spheres, Sinan cars, and Jili drums, and the clothes and quilts worn in the palace are all in accordance with the emperor's specifications, which is the first major crime and violation.

He captured many fangs in the mountains, became eunuchs in the palace after castration, and dissected living people to extract gall, these acts existed before Yuan Yan went, and he began to do this again after Yuan Yan's death. This is Yang Xiu's second major sin.

Yang Xiu took his wife and concubine out of the city to hunt, carried a slingshot with him, and hit people with silver bullets when he saw people who were not pleasing to his eyes on the road. And he also gathered a group of villains who accompanied him to eat, drink, and flatter. Compared to the first two sins, these are minor sins.

Li Jing took out a large slingshot with a silver light and said: "This is the slingshot that Yang Xiu used to hit people, Long Yan was furious after the emperor saw it last time, and threw this thing into the warehouse of our driving department. ”

Wang Shichong took a closer look. I saw that the leather band of this slingshot was several strands of animal tendons twisted together, wound with gold wire, Wang Shichong stayed in the driving department for almost two years, and at a glance, he knew that this slingshot was extremely elastic.

Li Jing found a few more marbles the size of a dragon's eye, such a big marble with that powerful beast tendon, it was enough to kill a person.

Wang Shichong said indignantly: "This Yang Xiu is really not a thing, no wonder he didn't have his share in the southern expedition to Ningzhou this time." ”

But after Wang Shichong finished scolding, he felt that something was wrong, and shook his head: "But listen to you, this Shu King Yang Xiu even engaged in illegal things in his own palace." He should also have a bad idea of the position of the Ninth Five-Year Plan, and this counterinsurgency operation in Ningzhou is almost his only chance to make military achievements, so won't he try his best to fight for it? I don't believe that there is not a single important minister in the court who speaks for him. Also, listening to what you said, the emperor also knew about his evil deeds. Why don't you recall him like King Qin? ”

Li Jing smiled slightly: "First of all, answer your previous question, the current Yuan Zhou of the General of the Right Tun Guard." is Yang Xiu's most powerful supporter in the DPRK. During the morning court meeting, he insisted that the king of Shu be in command, and General Shi should be the chief of the march or the head of the sub-army, following the story of the last time he killed Nan Chen, but he was shot out by the high servant of the previous few evil deeds of the king of Shu, which made the emperor very unhappy. The proposal was rejected outright.

But General Yuan Xuan obviously came prepared, and although this proposal was vetoed, he followed suit, saying that if the army all set out from Guanzhong. The labor expedition consumed a huge amount, and the northern soldiers were often not accustomed to the geography and climate of Ningzhou, and even if they did not consider the situation of the epidemic after they went, they would not be able to adapt to the water and soil, just like the troops brought to Lingnan by Wei Xun back then, unable to fight.

He suggested that 20,000 Shu soldiers should be transferred from Shuzhong on the spot to cooperate with the main force from Guanzhong to act together, and the grain and grass logistics would be supplied by Yang Xiu, the king of Shu sitting in Chengdu.

The last is this candidate as the head coach, Yang Fushu proposed Yu Zhongwen who was idle at home, Su Nayan proposed General Yuwenshu, who is now serving as the governor of Shouzhou, and Yuan Min, the general of Zuotunwei, proposed General He Ruobi, these candidates did not satisfy the emperor and have been silent.

The emperor immediately agreed, and General Shi selected ten sub-governors from the Yitong to Shangkaifu generals in Daxing City, and the soldiers directly selected 10,000 elites from the Fanshang military camp outside the city, all infantry, and they went to Ningzhou five days later.

Oh, by the way, when the court discussion was about to end, Gao Servant suddenly came to a sentence, saying that when Zhuge Liang pacified Nanzhong, the biggest opponent was not Meng Shu's barbarians, but the poisonous gas miasma, the last time Pei Shiju pacified Lingnan, Wang Shichong, who accompanied the army, had a secret method to crack the miasma of Lingnan, and none of the three thousand elite soldiers lost their combat effectiveness because of the miasma, so this time to pacify Ningzhou, Wang Shichong must be brought. ”

Wang Shichong sighed: "I didn't expect to change the name or keep them in mind, pharmacist, you said that there are so many officials of the fifth grade, and thousands of Yitong generals who have gone home to live idlely, why do they have such a good memory?" ”

Li Jing laughed: "Who made you Wang Xingman toss in the east, west, north and south all these years, those important ministers in the court have all dealt with you, not to mention that you change your name, even if you are burned to ashes, I am afraid that they can recognize it." ”

Wang Shichong suddenly thought of the right guard general Yuan Zhou who supported Yang Xiu, this benevolent brother was the one who sacrificed his life to save Yang Jian's life in the home of Princess Dayi's father, Zhao Wang Yu Wenzhao of the Northern Zhou Dynasty. At that time, Yuwen Zhao lay down a soldier at home, preparing to throw melons as a number during the banquet to kill Yang Jian, who had become the prime minister, thanks to the loyalty of the former Northern Wei clan, he kept staring at Yuwen Zhao, and as soon as he took the watermelon, he stood by Yuwen Zhao's side, and did not give him a chance to fall the melon at all.

When Yang Jian left the table with drunkenness, Yuan Zhou was still alone to block the door, and the killers who surged out from behind the screen were cold, so after Yang Jian ascended the throne, in order to repay his life-saving grace, he was put in charge of the right Tunwei army outside Daxing City for a long time, although the official position of the right Tunwei general is only the third grade, but because he directly controls the military talisman of the Fanshang army, so the importance is self-evident.

It's just that this time, General Yuan didn't seem to be as visionary as when he protected Yang Jian last time, he stood on the wrong team, and chose to make friends with Yang Xiu, the unsuccessful Shu King, thinking of this, Wang Shichong was a little incomprehensible, shook his head, and sighed: "I just can't understand why a person like General Yuan would help Yang Xiu!"

Li Jing smiled: "I don't know what I do, I can't write two yuan characters in one stroke, Yuan Zhou and Jingzhou Thorn History, the Northern Wei Dynasty royal family Yuan Xiaoju is the same clan, Yuan Xiaoju's daughter is the former concubine Yuan of the current Crown Prince, the Yuan Concubine died unexplained back then, and even Queen Dugu believed that it was His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Yun Zhaoxun.

The Yuan clan has hated His Royal Highness the Prince since then, because Yuan Yan, who is also a member of the Yuan clan, is in the long history of Yang Xiu, the king of Shu, at this time, so the entire Yuan clan of the Northern Wei Dynasty has fallen to Yang Xiu, the king of Shu, after all, the king of Shu was just a young man at that time, and they thought that with Yuan Yan in charge, it would not be too unsuccessful in the future.

It's a pity that people are not as good as the sky, Yuan Yan died in Shu in the thirteenth year of the emperor, His Royal Highness the King of Shu because no one is in charge, more and more unsuccessful, but the fate of the Yuan family has been firmly tied to the King of Shu, at this time it is impossible to change the court, only gritted his teeth and stiffened, even if he can't fight for the position of the prince, it is necessary to maintain the status of a strong vassal of the King of Shu in the future. ”

Wang Shichong glanced at Li Jing and hooked the corners of his mouth: "Pharmacist, you and I have known each other for less than two years, although we have learned a lot in the art of war, but after all, it is not a friend of life and death, why do you want to tell me these core secrets of this dynasty today?" These are all taboo things. ”

Li Jing put away his smile, and the essence in his eyes flashed: "Xingman, the reason why I tell you this is just to remind you, don't get carried away, after arriving in Shu, you were coerced and lured by the King of Shu, and you really switched to him, the battle of the prince is now visible to anyone with a discerning eye, except for Yang Jun, the king of Qin, it is already a four-dragon hegemony, and everyone will spare no effort to win over the courtiers to stand in line, I don't want to see you finish up with a certain prince in the future, so I advise you not to get involved in these things, otherwise there will be fewer good opponents when discussing the army in the future, I'll be lonely.
