Chapter 193: The Old and New Xijing Coup (5)

The rain hit Zhou Ce's armor along the oil-paper umbrella, Zhou Ce did not dodge, his eyes were resolute, Chen Zhiqing under the umbrella was a little uncomfortable, he was not used to his subordinates holding an umbrella for him, but today's situation is special, and the posture has to be put on, this is a holy decree, and the task must be completed to the letter.

Zhong Rouxuan and the others were slowly entering the city, Chen Zhiqing had been staring at the car on the tail of the team, and Zhou Ce's eyes had never left Zhao He, it was Zhong Rouxuan in the car, she knew that Chen Zhiqing was waiting for her, but she didn't plan to get out of the car, her failure from Xiangyang to Luochen was basically planted in his hands.

A group of people slowly entered the city in the heavy rain, but Daxuan did not have any preferential treatment, let them walk in the rain, the surrounding Xuanjun is even more nostrils to the sky, a look of contempt, they look down on these people from the bottom of their hearts, as soldiers they are more recognized to fight on the battlefield, deserters are the most despised by the Xuanjun, they are qualified to be proud, since the founding of the country has not surrendered the Xuanjun, just the warriors who died in battle, there has always been an unwritten rule in the Daxuan Army, that is, the dagger was left for himself for the last time.

The procession into the city lasted for nearly two hours before it fully entered Yuzhou, and when the car arrived in front of Chen Zhiqing, it paused, the curtain was not opened, and Zhong Rouxuan's voice came from the carriage, and the voice was indifferent.

"Thank you, General Chen, I won't get out of the car because I'm not feeling good after running around for days."

Chen Zhiqing snorted coldly and said unceremoniously: "Mrs. Tu Shan is polite, take care of your body, there is a long way to go." ”

Chen Zhiqing is deliberately arching the fire, which also directly shows that Daxuan's attitude towards her is unwelcome, and it also represents Daxuan's hatred for her.

Zhong Rouxuan was calm in the carriage, she knew that Chen Zhiqing wanted to provoke herself, and at the same time let the people around her have thoughts about her, but Zhong Rouxuan didn't care, her carefully selected entourage would not have any opinion of her because of this, these people didn't know how Zhong Rouxuan got to power, why they followed Zhong Rouxuan with all their hearts, it was because they took the initiative to participate in the massacre of the Tu Shan clan and the Quan clan.

"General Chen is too worried, the future of this palace still has to worry about your family master, what hard can we do." Zhong Rouxuan was also not polite.

"Hahaha! Mrs. Tu Shan is so confident, I am waiting for Tu Shan, the civil affairs officer of Yuezhou, to pick up Mrs. Xiyuan at Dongting Lake. "Chen Zhiqing just wants to make Zhong Rouxuan uncomfortable, that is, to make her have a bumpy journey.

Zhong Rouxuan is on fire, this is obviously deliberate, the relationship between Zhong Rouxuan and Tu Shan's clan is well known to the world, if it is Tu Shan Yinyuan, it would be easy to do, but let Tu Shanshan come to Yuan, this road to the south will inevitably suffer humiliation.

"Meng Yan is a good means! Hongu has learned! ”

Zhong Rouxuan held back the fire in her belly, but she didn't dare to scold, and now she had to rely on Xuanjun to get to the south alive, but she didn't hold it back.

"The dog who lost his family dares to call my majesty by his name, it's really damned!" Zhou Ce said coldly.

"General Chen, is this kind of quality for your subordinates? I thought Meng Yan had a big belly. Zhou Ce's sudden words made Zhong Rouxuan immediately catch her, but what she didn't know was Zhou Ce's identity.

"Hahaha! In the army, he is my general, but he is not in the city, General Zhou is my son-in-law of His Majesty, and he is still qualified to say a word to his wife. Chen Zhiqing said with a laugh.

Zhong Rouxuan kicked on the iron plate, stopped talking, and was set off by someone for a while, it was really a house leak that happened to rain overnight, knocked on the car door, and the car slowly moved towards the city.

Looking at the car driving in the distance, Chen Zhiqing said: "Don't stand up here, you have enough appearance, go wash up, be careful of catching a cold." ”

"Qingshuai, I'm fine, this Zhong Rouxuan is so arrogant!" Zhou Ce sighed, he had fought with Luo Chen many times, but with his level, it was not enough for Zhong Rouxuan to deal with, and today was also the first time he had seen a woman from the Zhong family.

"She? has an arrogant tone but no arrogant capital, compared to her two younger sisters, it is far worse, inform Xi Yuan, let him play as he pleases, as long as he does not die, His Majesty will not blame. ”

"Is that good? Didn't we promise to escort them south? Zhou Ce asked puzzled, and at the same time he was puzzled by Chen Zhiqing's behavior, in his memory, Chen Zhiqing was the example of the entire Daxuan army, how could there be such an arrangement.

"You don't have to look at me like this, this is the meaning of the People's Court, but even if it is not the meaning of the People's Court, the old man will arrange it like this, you can't be polite to this woman, otherwise she will stab you, Cao Li, Tu Shan Jinyuan and Quan Zheng are also considered to be masterpieces, look at what they are ending."

The heavy rain for several days did not hinder the pace of Xijing's soldiers and horses entering Luochen City, and Li Qingque and Geng Chao walked side by side on the streets of Luochen.

Li Qingque looked at Luochen City, which was as prosperous as in the past, and sighed: "When I was a child, Luochen City was the place I dreamed of, and I thought that it would be good to find a place to live in Luochen one day, but I thought that today I would come in as a winner." ”

Geng Chao is a smart person, he is somewhat similar to Long Tingfei, he is unwilling to get involved in political struggles, but he can't help himself, Li Qingque's words have come to this point, he can't help but express his position, fortunately, there is an example of Long Tingfei in front, and he said helplessly: "General, the royal affairs are beyond my ability to discuss, you have said this step today, the last general just wants to expel those foreign races who invade us in the Western Regions, and return the people to peace, so that the exchanges between the Central Plains and the Western Continent will not be humiliated." ”

Li Qingque nodded and said: "Your Highness said that he would not ask you to make any statement, and agreed that you would continue to run the Western Regions, but if you want to return to the Western Regions, you have to ask Your Majesty for advice in person, but I have a sentence, you really don't have any nostalgia for Luochen City at all?" ”

Li Qingque obviously doesn't trust Geng Chao very much, there is only one left in Sanling, although the capital is now in Xijing, but the future Luochen City must be the most prosperous city, Luochen is the capital of the Central Plains for nearly a thousand years, and it is also a strategic military and commercial artery, and the day is not far off when it will become the first city in the world again, but Geng Chao chose to go to the Western Regions, which is a bit unreasonable.

"General, General Long wants to confront Beimu in the north, can't the last general do his best for our dynasty in the Western Regions?"

Geng Chao was impatient, his words were obviously emotional, he was tired of the political struggle, he wanted to be a pure soldier the most, but there was a sentence Li Qingque was right, there is only one left in Sanling, and Xijing is still the least optimistic, and now it is one of the four major families in the Central Plains, the Dahe Quan clan has long disappeared in the hands of Zhong Rouxuan, and the so-called Quan orthodoxy has now become a vassal of the Xiao clan, from the bottom of his heart, his choice is correct and wise, But the struggle within the Kwon clan does not know how far the family he works for can go.

"General Geng, don't be angry, since you want to emulate Long Tingfei, then follow your heart, don't look back!" Li Qingque was not angry, but admired Geng Chao very much in his heart, and he had such an ideal as Geng Chao, but since the Li family was handed over to him, the responsibility also followed, and the shackles of mundane things made him have no choice at all.

Geng Chao was stunned for a moment, bowed his hand respectfully at Li Qingque, and said, "Thank you, General!" Geng Chao understood! ”

Li Qingque and Geng Chao did not discuss this topic again, because Quan Bo's Luan drive was coming, and the bumps along the way made Quan Bo a little tired, but he couldn't hide the excitement in his heart, and the Daling Dynasty continued in his own hands after all.

"Li Xiang, you said that I want to move the capital to Luochen, will the courtiers agree?" Kwon Bo said lazily.

Quan Bo's casualness can make Li Zhengqian's heart cold, but he can't let him have this thought, otherwise a lot of people's plans will fail, but it can't be too obvious, Li Zhengqian's prime minister for many years is not in vain, and said expressionlessly: "Your Majesty, if Nanyang, Kaifeng and Taiyuan are in our hands, of course it is good to move the capital to Luochen, and the current situation is not suitable for moving the capital." ”

Quan Bo smiled and said: "I don't want to move the capital now, Li Xiang is right, Nanyang, Taiyuan, Kaifeng These three places are our new goals, speaking of which, where does Li Xiang think we should start first?" ”

"Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that Taiyuan should start first!" Li Zhengqian looked thoughtful.

"Oh? Why not Nanyang or Kaifeng, talk about it? There is still some time before Luo Chen, and we have a good chat. "Kwon Bo is very interested, and it is also a rare good attitude.

Li Zheng humbly bowed his hand and said: "Your Majesty, Nanyang is the place where Da Xi Qianbi has been operating for many years, Nanyang is peacefully handed over to Daxuan, everything is as usual, my army has just experienced a fight, and I can't go south at all." ”

"It makes sense, Da Xi Qianbi was forced away by Zhong Rouxuan, and I heard the letter from Liuli Pavilion that Da Xi Qianbi had become the first person in the military in Chengdu?"

"Yes, but the first person in the military can't take his turn, it's just a false name, Emperor Xuan has recently inspected various places, and there is no name of Xi Qianbi among the ministers left behind."

"What about Kaifeng?"

"Although Kaifeng has just experienced a big war, the army of the Xuan army has not made much movement, not to mention that the troops of Nanyang and Caizhou can support Kaifeng at any time, and Xuansong is not a figure to be messed with."

"Xuan Song? This person is a little interesting, the Great Xuan Eagle Marshal's Mansion should be the biggest force in the entire Xuan Army, it was originally presided over by Meng Yan's cronies Quartz, and later Quartz was beaten by Yu Qingwu enough, Meng Yan pushed Xuan Song to Jiangxia against public opinion, who would have thought that Yu Qingwu had never bargained again, he was a character. ”

Quan Bo said a little uncomfortable, Daxuan is located in the southwest of the Central Plains, although Chengdu is prosperous, but other places are the most barren places in the entire Central Plains, now not only the military is strong, the business is prosperous, even places like Yeling and Zhaonan can develop into the granary of Daxuan, how can you not admire?

This is just one of them, the national policy of Daxuan is also implemented very decently, there is a steady stream of talents, the matter of the family gate lord ruling the court is completely unestablished in Daxuan, the two houses are the talent pool of Daxuan, as long as you want to use a few people who can be selected at any time can be enriched into government affairs and military affairs.

"So the old minister thinks that if my dynasty wants to restore the past of Daling, we must first unify the north, at least north of the river, Taiyuan should be the first step of our dynasty, we have an advantage over Taiyuan, not everyone was willing when Quan Xi returned to Daning, and Long Tingfei was even more familiar with the Taiyuan garrison." Li Zhengqian's analysis is the Tao, and it sounds like the two monarchs and ministers are very close to each other.

Quan Bo did not rush to reply to Li Zhengqian's analysis, but thought for a while, and said: "Long Tingfei is of great use, I originally planned to let him go to Jiuyuan to deal with Beimu, this is also what I promised him, it seems that this time will not be able to leave, if you do something to Taiyuan, Luo Chen's position of staying behind is very important, I originally planned to let Li Qingque stay, but now it doesn't seem appropriate, Li Xiangke has a suitable candidate?" ”

Li Zhengqian hesitated, he had already been chosen, but it was inappropriate to make a statement that was too obvious, and he could only show that he was entangled.
