1213 Disappointed in You
That's it, the biggest headache for him and the ministers is that Li Shi and Li Feng, two uneasy guys, took the opportunity to fight openly and secretly to sow discord, causing rumors to spread and make people panic.
Of course, these are all unsubstantiated things, but in the hearts of Zhu Xiaochuan and several other ministers, they have long been suspicious, but they can't say it yet, and they don't dare to say it, who will they tell it?
Tianxuanhui is the emperor's confidant, and the two princes are the emperor's biological sons...... By the way, this time even the emperor's own nephew, Li Yan, the king of Yandang, was involved, and I don't know what to do with this matter?
Li Yan is Li Wanjiang's only nephew, his eldest brother died early, this nephew was also raised by him, regarded as a parent, but spoiled but still above his own son, this is not a problem in ordinary people's homes, but it is a little inappropriate in the emperor's family......
In fact, it is not surprising that Li Yan has dealings with the Tianxuan Society, as the prince general who led the troops, he has not eliminated the thieves of the Tianxuan Society, and has also included the captured prisoners under his command, and must have sent many people to the Tianxuan Society to be undercover agents.
This was a normal thing before, and Li Wanjiang couldn't say that he didn't know, but now that someone has ulterior motives to investigate it, coupled with the indiscriminate bite of the Tianxuan Society, even if he is innocent, it is difficult to say clearly.
For example, is it possible that the soldiers of the Tianxuanhui who surrendered to him could be undercover spies? Is it possible that the undercover spy he sent to the Tianxuan Society is actually the confidant envoy who contacted the Tianxuan Society?
He is the prince of the Great Zhou, of course he will not be in cahoots with the Tianxuan Society, but if there are any small transactions and greasy in it, no one knows.
In the previous Minzhou war, he led his troops to suppress bandits in western Fujian, and the task was to cut off the remnants of the Tianxuanhui in the west of Minzhou and the old troops of Yunnan Hou to join Xiao Xinghan.
This incident made Li Feng very angry, and he took Li Yan to be scolded in front of many people, and he was ruthless, and it is said that Li Yan was scolded and cried at that time.
also gave Li Wanjiang a fold to impeach him, to deprive him of his title and military power, Li Wanjiang knew the taboo of changing generals in battle, but he did not agree, but it also led to deeper contradictions between the two.
In fact, the relationship between the two was still good, but later Li Yan's wings gradually plumped, and after he had a certain prestige in the army, he didn't flatter Li Feng very much.
And Li Feng has always regarded him as his little follower, calling and drinking at every turn, always scolding in person, and now he suddenly doesn't listen to himself, and his heart is naturally very unbalanced, which is the root of the conflict between the two brothers.
This battle of Yizhou is a battle that must be won, and Li Yan naturally wants to participate, and the four kings will destroy Yizhou, and it will be passed on as a beautiful talk in the future......
However, Li Feng was also resolutely opposed, Li Shi was noncommittal, and Li Wanyun was not good at disobeying the wishes of his two nephews, so he could only tell Li Wanjiang to simply let Li Yan guard Minzhou and be in charge of the logistics of the army.
This is also regarded as his participation in the war, but in the future, he will be rewarded for his merits, but I am afraid that it will not be his turn.
As we all know, logistics in the army is a hard, tiring, troublesome, error-prone, and hateful errand.
Of course, if the sensible coach is better, it seems that Li Wanyun will definitely treat him, but are Li Feng and Li Shi so easy to serve?
In fact, according to common sense, this errand should fall on the governor of Minzhou County, but now he is in charge of a prince with troops, and he must inevitably have resentment in his heart.
If there is a grievance, he will take people out of anger, which will offend the local officials in Minzhou and the Ministry of War......
He not only has resentment, but also temper, it is said that after entering Beijing, he has been staying in the palace and calling himself sick, and the door is not out of the second door, Zhu Xiaochuan and they all blocked the car when they went to visit, and they did not take the initiative to see the emperor, which shows that he is very stubborn.
The problem is that now is not the time for him to lose his temper, because from Li Wanjiang to the ministers of the imperial court, they are also holding their breath in their hearts! Why are you still playing with us?
We don't know who to spread our anger with!
Zhu Xiaochuan and Xiao Chen poured bitter water, Xiao Chen was about to fall asleep when he heard it, because he also knew about these situations, what does this have to do with Lao Tzu?
Lao Tzu, I am a feudal official, and it is not enough to worry about the affairs of Yanyun County?
Do you still have to worry about the affairs of the court?
Besides, I have just washed away my grievances, and my head is almost in danger of saying that when I should stay out of the matter and avoid suspicion, what do you mean by telling me such a big chase!
If it's just a complaint between friends, then I have to listen to it if I don't listen, if you have something else......
You're so straightforward!
"There are some things that we who are close ministers can't say, but Hongchang, Dongyang, and your brother are foreign ministers who are easy to say...... Tomorrow brother, you will see the emperor, this and this...... Can you persuade him to be an old man? Zhu Xiaochuan finally said it directly.
"Master Hou, are you joking with your little brother?" Xiao Chen was shocked when he heard this, "I will see the emperor tomorrow, but I will apologize and thank you, I still have a lot of feces and urine on my body, and now you still let me jump into the big basin This is what you should say as a brother?" You're trying to kill me, you! ”
"Hehe, your brother has always been blessed with a great life, I can't kill you, besides, can I hurt you?" Zhu Xiaochuan expected that Xiao Chen must have reacted in this way, "This matter is actually not for your brother and me, nor for anyone else, not even for the emperor, not for the country, but for those poor people who have been wronged like you, brother." ”
That's a big deal.
"Oh...... It turns out that Master Hou, you don't dare to form a party for personal gain, but let your brother and I buy people's hearts and do this thing that defies the world's condemnation...... What's the matter, it's because of your brother, I'm a stupid and bold kid! Xiao Chen was all happy.
"Your elder brother and I are in the imperial court, if you come out for this matter, it will be regarded as a party, and you are a governor and foreign minister, even if you buy people's hearts, what can you do? Besides, now the big guys are not protecting themselves, even I am more or less implicated, and only your brother is the most innocent now! Zhu Xiaochuan said with a smile.
"the Hou Ye, you can be regarded as giving my little brother out!" Xiao Chen was stunned by his shamelessness, "This is clearly to roast me, and to burn me to the ground!" ”
"Why don't you say that you have accumulated virtue? If you succeed, it will cost thousands of lives! Don't talk about immortality in the future, even if you die, you can become a Buddha in the west! Zhu Xiaochuan said.
"This matter must not be obeyed!" Xiao Chen simply refused categorically and directly cut off Zhu Xiaochuan's thoughts.
"Alas...... I thought your brother would promise and take responsibility bravely, but I didn't expect you to have a cowardice! Zhu Xiaochuan expressed deep disappointment to Xiao Chen, "They all say that you are a handsome man, I think you are also handsome, not outstanding at all!" ”
