0839 Emperor Liang enters the customs
Since Jiangling City was captured, Emperor Xiao Yi of Liang has been neglected. The civil and military officials of Jiangling City all rushed to meet the Western Wei soldiers who were conquerors, and few of them would be loyal to him, the outdated emperor.
As for Li Tai's post-war governance and order restoration in Jiangling, he didn't need Xiao Yi's help at all, and his governance of Jiangling was even more organized than in the Xiao Yi period, so of course there was no need to treat him with much respect and preferential treatment.
But when he came to Guanzhong, he once again felt the enthusiasm of the crowd. When Li Musuo's men, who were in charge of escorting them and his entourage of the Liang Kingdom, arrived near Chang'an, the entire Bashang field was full of people who had heard the news and rushed to see the excitement.
"The son of the Xiao family, do you know the authority of General Li? Do you know my Kansai Erlang Wei?"
When the carriage that Xiao Yi was riding appeared in the field of vision of the masses, the excited roars of the people suddenly sounded in the wilderness.
Since the partition of the East and the West, their Kansai regime has been attacked by people blocking the door, the last time the heads of other countries came to Guanzhong, it was the Liang King Xiao Jing who entered the court to worship, and now even the Son of Heaven of Southern Liang was captured and sent to Chang'an, which has greatly satisfied the regional pride of the Guanxi fathers and elders, and I can't imagine that I can see their Kansai forces become awesome in the world competition in my lifetime!
Compared with the excitement and enthusiasm of the fathers and elders in Guanzhong, Xiao Yi and other Southern Liang monarchs and ministers looked gloomy and depressed, especially when the cold wind that was far more severe than Jiangling blew on their bodies, they were even more cold and shivering, which was extremely miserable.
Although Emperor Liang had been captured, the Western Wei court still gave a high standard of welcome, and Taifu Li Bi led all the civil and military officials to wait outside the city to greet him. As soon as Emperor Liang's car arrived in front of the city, he was quickly guarded by the soldiers of the forbidden army, but the next action was inevitably a little rough, almost dragging Emperor Liang directly out of the car, and pushed in front of Li Bi and others, and ordered Emperor Liang to salute.
When the other Liang ministers saw their Emperor His Majesty with a cramped and frightened face, they saluted the arrogant Western Wei courtiers one after another under the scolding of these soldiers, and they couldn't help but feel touched and weep for a while.
Although General Li did not treat them too much after conquering Jiangling, he finally maintained basic etiquette, and now he came to Guanzhong to be treated rudely, so that they really felt what it means to be a slave of the country!
Compared with the rough treatment suffered by the Southern Liang monarchs and ministers, Li Mu, a great and triumphant general, did not receive much courtesy. When the soldiers of the Forbidden Army took over the Southern Liang monarchs, he and his soldiers were ordered to temporarily camp in the south.
When the group arrived at this somewhat humble camp, Li Mu had not had time to arrange camp affairs, and a group of people came outside the camp on horseback, led by his nephew Li Zhi and Yi Loumu, the general of the Chinese and foreign government.
Li Zhi rode his horse directly into the gate, and came not far in front of Li Mu, looking at Li Mu, who was still dressed in armor, and said in a deep voice: "Please Wu'an Gong untie his sword and remove his armor!"
Li Mu had a group of pro-soldiers around him, and when they saw that it was their own children who came to greet them, they all had a shallow smile on their faces, but they didn't expect Li Zhi's attitude to be so bad, so they all restrained their smiles and guarded Li Mu with a saber in their hands.
"Is Wu Angong trying to disobey?"
Ilamo in the rear followed, and when he saw this posture, he looked at Li Zhi again, and asked, "May I ask Li Silu, do you need the last general......
"No, you don't!"
Li Zhi raised his hand and waved, then turned over and dismounted, took two steps forward and glared at the soldiers in front of Li Mu and reprimanded, "Stand down! Do you dare to rebel against your master?"
As he spoke, he raised his hand to line up the soldiers in front of him, and walked directly in front of Li Mu, and was about to untie Li Mu's saber, and at the same time shouted in his mouth: "If I hadn't taken the initiative to ask for my life to come here, Uncle might have been even more humiliated!" Uncle, you are willful and reckless outside, but I don't know how much effort Aya and I have to spend in the house to make up for it!"
"I've returned to the country with great success, what mistakes do you need to mend?"
When Li Mu heard this, he snorted coldly, but he did not continue to resist, and let Li Zhi remove his saber, and then pointed to the soldiers who returned to Beijing with him in the rear and said to Li Zhi in a deep voice, "I
From entering the house to meet the Lord, he will reward and punish him. The sergeants here are all ordered to act, and there is no fault in it, so don't take offense! If the criticism is harsh and leads to a mutiny, there are still tens of thousands of victorious divisions outside the border who will not want to return, and you will be guilty of a great crime at that time!"
The sergeants who entered the camp were looking at the carriages full of luggage in the camp with curiosity, and after hearing Li Mu's words, they were shocked in their hearts, and they hurriedly withdrew their curious and envious gaze.
Emperor Liang and his entourage were temporarily led to another garden to settle in order to enter the court in the coming day to offer prisoners, and the envoys of the Chinese and foreign governments who returned with this team were received by Yuwen Taishi at the first time, and gave detailed information on the current situation in Jiangling.
Lu Tong remained in Gangneung to take charge of the follow-up negotiations, and sent several other envoys back to the court, including Li Chang, the lieutenant of the imperial history who was tortured in the Gangneung camp.
The soldiers of the Jingzhou army will not take this lieutenant of the imperial history in their eyes, the torture rod fell firmly on Li Chang, because he was busy returning to Guanzhong and traveled day and night, he could not get effective treatment and recuperation, and his injuries were inevitably more serious, and he was directly carried into the forbidden middle to do something.
"It's hard to control the feudal domain, it's really hard Lieutenant Li!"
When Yu Wentai saw Li Chang who was carried into the hall, he also cherished his heartache, personally went in to inspect Li Chang's injury, and sighed with his hand on his back.
After Li Chang heard this, his expression became a little excited, and his tone became a little choked: "What is the plan of the minister, but this envoy failed to tame the strongman and lived up to the favor of the lord, so he is really ashamed to return......
"I know my loyalty. Morality is mine, but let the disciples do their best, and why is it so difficult!"
Yu Wentai patted Li Chang twice more to comfort him, and then asked in a deep voice, "What is the specific situation in the southeast, you can tell me as soon as possible!"
After hearing the words, everyone who returned to the court handed over Lu Tong's recital, and at the same time told what they had seen and heard from this trip and the information they had summarized from different angles.
Yuwentai listened carefully to everyone's recital, and then opened Lu Tong's recital and read it carefully, when he saw that Li Boshan was willing to send back the tens of thousands of divisions and brigades, the wrinkles between his eyebrows stretched slightly, and he muttered: "This disciple has this conscience, and he has not forgotten his roots arrogantly. The former phase diagram, is it really lost in a hurry?"
Since the Battle of Bishan, Yuwentai has been painstakingly engaged in two things, one is the construction of the government army, and the other is the reform of the political system, and the former is the foundation of the latter. In other words, everything that Yuwentai has painstakingly managed over the years is based on the government soldiers. Whether these 60,000 soldiers can return to Guanzhong is also an issue that Yuwentai is most worried about and concerned about.
At this time, when he saw that Li Tai did not show too a tough attitude on this issue, Yu Wentai secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and even though he couldn't help but feel a little remorseful.
Just looking at Li Tai's current attitude towards people and things, in fact, many things between each other can be discussed calmly, at least before this dispute occurred, the contradictions were far from accumulating to an irreconcilable level.
Especially since Yuwendao's untimely death, Yuwentai has often wondered in his heart, did he really have to be like this at that time, and there was no room for relaxation at all?
This kind of emotion is useless, and it will make people's thoughts more disordered, if it was in previous years, Yuwentai would never indulge in this, even if the battle of Pishan in the old year was so painful, the first time to recover is to actively solve the problem.
But this time the accident made him feel that he was completely trapped in an involuntary passivity, and even if he reviewed it afterwards, he couldn't find any breakthrough that could directly reverse the disadvantaged situation. Only after knowing Li Tai's attitude afterwards, he found out, that is, don't do it from the beginning!
At this point, Yu Wentai sighed again and shook his head to eliminate the messy thoughts in his mind. At this time, another confidant entered Wu'an Gong Li Mu was asking to see him outside the hall.
After hearing this, Yu Wentai's eyes flashed again, and he waved his hand to signal Li Chang and the other envoys to retreat first, and ordered Li Mu to be introduced into the hall.
Not long after, Li Mu came to the hall with his hair and feet, accompanied by Li Yuan, who was only wearing a plain robe, and the two brothers worshiped deeply on the ground together after they entered the hall.
Boom!
Yu Wentai smashed his fist on the case, lowered his eyes and glared at Li Mu angrily and scolded: "In Wuning City that day, this should not be the case. When he returns to me today, he will not say a word."
After Li Mu heard this, he just paused again, and Li Yuan next to him said: "Ugly criminal, death is death, and you dare to quibble!" Only the grace is great, and it can be redeemed by death, and the ministers ask the children of his disciples to die on their behalf, and leave this sinner to die day by day, so as to punish the former sins and set an example for future generations!"
"Shut up and let him talk!"
Yu Wentai slapped the case again and shouted angrily, staring at Li Mu with a pair of eyes and asking, "Wu Ning was responsible for me that day, did you ever want to return? There are those who bear me in the world, but no one has this heart-piercing pain!"
When Li Mu heard this reprimand, he immediately burst into tears, and kowtowed again and again: "The minister is guilty, and the minister deserves to die!" At that time, the general trend had been lost, even if he sacrificed the lives of the disciples, the Duke of Zhongshan was afraid that it would be difficult to defeat the Duke of Taiyuan, and it was better to die than to die in internal fighting! Therefore, he led the people south and begged to die in Gangneung, although Gangneung was broken, his great wish was not fulfilled......
Yu Wentai walked down from the hall, raised his leg and kicked Li Mu to the ground, then grabbed his shirt and lifted it up, still saying angrily in his mouth: "With this trade-off, it is not a miscalculation, why don't you dare to play directly!" Zhongshan Gongtao is not his forte, so he will send you to assist, and it is your duty to make decisions on the spot. Gangneung's ugly people who lost their country can't kill my beloved general, how can I bear to do harm!"
