Chapter 501: Self-excavation of the Emperor's Tomb
There is only one reason why Zuo Liangzhe said, that is, Yuan Huan will send troops in advance, which is completely for the sake of the Shen family's face.
After Shen Huashan was dismissed, he did not return to his ancestral home in Jiangnan Province, but went to Lingnan Province, and even the in-laws of the Shen family, Yu Zhengkai of the Xishan Yu family, went to Lingnan Province to give lectures.
Why did Shen Huashan go to Lingnan Road? Nobody knows. But Zuo Liangzhe knew that Yuan Huan had visited Shen Huashan several times, and the letter he presented to Emperor Jingxing was the friendship between Shen and Yuan described by Lingnan Provincial officials.
Shen Huashan and Yuan Huan had a very close relationship, Yuan Huan sent troops in advance, and Shen Zejing, the son of Shen Huashan, made great achievements, how could there be such a coincidence? It must have been Shen Huashan who mediated it!
"Your Majesty, Yuan Huan sent troops in advance, not for an emergency, but for friendship with the Shen family! Lingnan Wei's 120,000 soldiers and horses, how can they become a friendship of one person? Lingnan Wei's 120,000 soldiers and horses, how can they become the bag of one person?"
Zuo Liangzhe knelt on the Zichen Hall and said earnestly. He is the best at speculating about the emperor's heart, and he knows that these words will definitely poke Emperor Jingxing's mind.
Before Emperor Jingxing could speak, Zuo Liangzhe spoke again, and his expression was resolute, as if he had let it go, as if even if the emperor was guilty, he would tell this heresy.
"Your Majesty, although the 120,000 soldiers and horses of Lingnan Wei are in the hands of Yuan Huan, although they belong to the imperial court, a small Shen family can actually summon these 120,000 soldiers and horses, which is a great disaster for the country! Besides, Biyun was born in the world, and was also ridden by Shen Zejing under the crotch, and the people all said that Shen Zejing was destined by heaven, and he was the king, and the Shen family turned out to be popular with the people, what was it for? The Shen family's move is tantamount to Jiang Bowen's rebellion! ”
"The minister is willing to die, please think twice! Don't let the Shen family and Yuan Huan go on again! ”
Zuo Liangzhe said, knocked his head a few times, knelt on the ground, and refused to get up. I could only hear the sound of sobbing.
Emperor Jingxing listened to Zuo Liangzhe's words, his chest rose and fell violently, but his face was extremely calm.
Zuo Liangzhe's words pierced Emperor Jingxing's heart. Queensland's victory is ahead. The situation in Xining Dao is already safe, but the hidden undercurrent below appears in front of Emperor Jingxing.
For an emperor, the victory in Queensland will of course make him happy, and the death of 80,000 soldiers will also make him feel sad and regretful. But what he cares more about is whether his country is stable and whether his throne is secure!
Shen Zejing and Yuan Huan have indeed made great contributions, but if the two of them are secretly colluding. With 120,000 Lingnan Wei as a condition for meritorious service, then Emperor Jingxing will definitely not accept it!
What's more, the matter of Biyun Cong made Emperor Jingxing feel like a fish in his throat, and he didn't sit or stand. Biyun congregation is auspicious and too often lost. It has always been impossible to explain, but the foolish people of the world believe in these methods the most. The destiny of heaven can only be the emperor of the country, how can he be a courtier?
And it's also his dismissed courtier! Before the invasion of Western Yan, he had already issued an order to remove Shen Zejing from his official position. A dismissed courtier would get so popular popularity that even Bi Yuncong was tamed. This is the most unacceptable thing for Emperor Jingxing!
"If I remember correctly, Shen Zejing's official position of Queensland Assassin has been removed by me. Why is Shen Zejing still a Queensland assassin?"
Emperor Jingxing said this, which made Zuo Liangzhe's heart happy, he hurriedly raised his head, and said respectfully and restrainedly: "The appointment of the ministry." Before it arrived in Xining Road, there was an invasion of Xiyan. Then it was gone. ”
He is a subordinate servant, and he is not familiar with the situation of the officials, but Shen Zejing knows these things.
"The Xining Dao Observer has been killed. Shen Zejing has made great contributions, and the officials of Xining Dao have already regarded Shen Zejing as an observer. At this point, the officials of Xining Province are of the same mind. ”
Zuo Liangzhe did not add. He knew very well that the emperor was jealous of himself, but he was even more jealous of Shen Huashan and the Shen family. The more the Shen family gains popularity, the deeper the jealousy and jealousy in the emperor's heart will be.
He wanted to take advantage of the two events of Lingnan Wei to send troops in advance and Biyun Cong, which caused the emperor to kill the Shen family and Yuan Huan. He believed that no emperor could endure that there was another person in this world who would be more popular than him.
The Shen family and Yuan Huan must be a dead end!
This is the emperor's mind, this is what Zuo Liangzhe wants Emperor Jingxing to do!
As long as the Shen family is uprooted and Yuan Huan is dismissed, he will naturally install his henchmen and cronies to take over Xining Wei and Lingnan Wei, then the Zuo family and Prince Rui will have help in the army.
As for the emperor...... Zuo Liangzhe felt a sigh in his heart, let him be suspicious and faint!
Zuo Liangzhe remembered the words of his staff member Zhao De at this moment. Zhao De said that if Shen Zejing and Yuan Huan are convicted, in addition to getting help from the army, more importantly, it can let the courtiers and the people know that the emperor is mediocre, then it is a matter of course for Prince Rui to replace him.
Killing the heroes who protect the country and protect the territory is something that the emperor can't do no matter what, Zuo Liangzhe is also worried in his heart, will the emperor be so mediocre?
But Zhao De swore and said: "Master, think about it, what will the emperor value the most?" With the matter of Biyun Cong, as long as the emperor believes that Yuan Huan sent troops in advance, it is related to the Shen family. Then the master will be happy! ”
Zuo Liangzhe thought about it several times, and thought about it, what the emperor values most will be nothing else except the throne.
Sure enough, now in the Zichen Palace, when he heard Emperor Jingxing say this, he knew that the emperor's suspicion had appeared.
To be honest, he couldn't guess what Emperor Jing Xing was thinking. The Shen family helped him to ascend to the throne, and he had the merit of following the dragon, and in the end, the children of the family were all dismissed, is it really the emperor's meanness?
Zuo Liangzhe couldn't figure it out, but with the Shen family as a model in front, Zuo Liangzhe was even more worried that the Zuo family would become the next target to be cut off, so he must strike first!
"In that case, call Chu Yan to come. The political situation in Queensland also needs someone to take charge of it. ”
Emperor Jingxing had reservations about Zuo Liangzhe's words, and did not express his position on the merits and demerits of Shen Zejing and Yuan Huan, but he was thinking about the candidate to replace Xie Tongfu.
Tang Mi was serving in the Zichen Palace, and his heart was terrified. If the emperor listened to Zuo Liangzhe's words, then Shen Zejing and Yuan Huan would be in danger.
After Zuo Liangzhe retired, Tang Mi thought about it again and again, but he didn't know how to speak for the Shen family and Yuan Huan.
Subsequently, Jin Wuwei Si Jie Kong Wu came to Zichen Palace, told Emperor Jingxing in detail about the discussion of the people of Jingzhao on Queensland, and told Emperor Jingxing about Yuan Huan's troops before he sent troops. did go to Qujiang to see Shen Huashan, and said that Shen Zejing's future son-in-law and cousin were the ones who actually controlled Xiningwei.
These are all things that Emperor Jingxing asked Kong Wu to secretly investigate.
Kong Wu's report. This really made Emperor Jingxing's face sink down. It turns out that what Zuo Liangzhe said is really not wrong, the Shen family has been paving the way, and what they are seeking is the will of the people, and the Shen family's heart is obvious!
Emperor Jingxing once again thought of the matter of Chunxi Palace back then, and thought that the Shen family really had the ability to turn over the clouds. I have to say that this incident left a deep impression on Emperor Jingxing, from his youth to the present, Emperor Jingxing remembers this shadow.
July 12, a great pilgrimage before the Midyear Festival. Emperor Jingxing announced a will that shocked the courtiers, and the Xuanzheng Hall was so silent that even the sound of breathing could not be heard.
All the courtiers grew their mouths in astonishment and forgot to breathe.
Your Majesty, would you make such a will?!
"Tell me the will. Although Yuan Huan, the general of the Lingnan Guard, had a meritorious service in resisting the enemy, he disregarded military discipline and led his troops out of Lingnan Road without authorization. Ordered to temporarily resign from the post of general and return to Beijing on the same day to report on his work! ”
"The Queensland observation made Shen Zejing have a meritorious role in killing the enemy, but the deaths of Zhao Yugang and Xie Tongfu are strange. Ordered to return to Beijing on the same day to report on work! ”
"The Xining Wei soldiers and the Lingnan Wei soldiers are rewarded! Everyone's military merit pension. The military department should be promoted to wait for urgency, in order to show the merit of fighting against Xiyan! ”
These are the three decrees of Emperor Jingxing, which are aimed at Yuan Huan, the general of Lingnan Wei, Shen Zejing, the assassin of Queensland, and the soldiers of Nanwei Lingwei, Xining.
Emperor Jingxing's meaning is very clear, although Yuan Huan and Shen Zejing are meritorious, but their behavior is wrong, and they are specially summoned to Beijing to report on their work. More on that later.
However, the mistakes of the chief generals and officers were not as good as those of Xiningwei and Lingnanwei, and the soldiers had meritorious deeds in killing the enemy, and they were naturally rewarded for their meritorious deeds. This is for their killing of the enemy, but also to appease them. In case they complained for Yuan Huan and Shen Zejing.
At the same time, Emperor Jingxing also issued a decree that Shen Zesi, Peng Jin and others also entered Beijing together; also specially summoned Shen Huashan, who was old in Lingnan Road; In the end, Si Nongqing Lei Zhiyuan was appointed as the observer of Xining Dao, in charge of the political situation of Xining Dao officialdom.
These wills of Emperor Jingxing made the courtiers stunned. Is the emperor going to ask Shen Zejing and Yuan Huan? And a cadre of people behind them, etc.?
Although he went to Beijing to report on his work, he was dismissed from his post and dismissed from his official position before reporting on his work, which is clearly to ask for guilt!
They guarded the frontier, but they were to be held accountable? This is so ridiculous, how could J make such a will?
"The emperor's ......" Zheng Diheng was the first to come out and wanted to speak for Shen Zejing and Yuan Huan. But before he could speak, Emperor Jingxing's face sank.
"Zhongqing, this is my intention, and there must be no objections! The military department and the official department, immediately issue an order, and I have my own decision! Emperor Jingxing's words were unprecedentedly harsh.
Zheng Diheng and Qiu Shengnian and other courtiers did not back down at all in the face of Emperor Jingxing's anger. They followed the example of Lu Wuhou and Shen Ke back then, knelt on the Xuanzheng Palace, and asked Emperor Jingxing to retract his will.
"Your Majesty, Shen Zejing and Yuan Huan have made great contributions, how can they be taken away? This will chill the hearts of the courtiers and soldiers! Zheng Diheng said, not worried about being questioned by Emperor Jingxing.
"Your Majesty, taking the official position of a meritorious minister, this is not what Ming Jun did! The ministers implored the emperor to retract his will. Qiu Shengnian couldn't kneel for a long time, he was also fearless, he just didn't say that Emperor Jingxing was mediocre.
Although Emperor Jingxing didn't say it explicitly, everyone knew that if Shen Zejing and Yuan Huan went to Beijing to report on their work, they would definitely be more than lucky!
Emperor Jingxing sat high, looking down at the ministers below, his face gloomy. He has made up his will, how can he take it back? Is this minister going to challenge the majesty of the emperor?
Among the courtiers, Zuo Liangzhe bowed his head respectfully and hid the smile in his eyes. It seems that things have already been successful.
ps:
Two more! Everyone thinks Little Twelve is mediocre, right? I think it's also reasonable. Chongzhen's killing of Yuan Chonghuan feels a bit similar, the essence of the emperor is actually the same. Uh, cheeky to ask for all kinds of tickets, thank you~~
