Chapter 38: Suspicion

In addition to being divided into multiple parties in the court.

Wenchen and Wuchen also have the biggest opinions, and they can always quarrel when they encounter problems.

Now it's playing out again.

Zhong Shu was already in the age of sixties, and glanced at Cao Yucheng: "Reckless, use your brain power in advance, instead of using brute force at the first time, you usually lead troops to fight and learn more about the art of war, otherwise it will always be like this, and it is easy to suffer a big loss." ”

Zhang Mengguan is a military general, Cao Yucheng is a reckless man, and he also raised it with one hand, and when he heard Zhong Shu say this, he disagreed.

He said slowly: "The right minister's words are wrong, the emperor was too good to the Tong family before, which will cause them to be so arrogant, don't give these people a little color, really think that they are heavenly, then the daughter of the Tong family is arrogant, didn't she scold your granddaughter on the street before?" ”

Zhong Shu snorted coldly, stroked his beard and did not speak again.

Zuo Xiang Cui Ji listened to their words, did not open his mouth to express his opinion, glanced at the face of the emperor sitting at the desk, his face was calm, and then looked at Pei Dudu on the side, who also looked calm.

The two most dominant ones haven't spoken yet.

There was silence in the study.

Zhong Shu's cloudy gaze looked at the emperor and asked, "Your Majesty, in your opinion, how should we deal with it now?" ”

Yu Wende said slowly: "Now there are only 50,000 soldiers and horses that I can mobilize in Beijing, and I can transfer troops to the nearest camp, and it will take at least five days to transfer 70,000 soldiers for reinforcements, but the soldiers transferred by Zhangjing of the Tong family can arrive in three days."

We can only defeat the 50,000 soldiers of Zhangjing with 50,000 soldiers in Beijing. ”

His voice was cold and murderous.

Zhong Shu said worriedly: "There are still 200,000 soldiers and horses of the Tong family in the frontier, if they transfer these 200,000 soldiers and horses back to the capital, then no one will resist the Hu people, and the Hu people will definitely take the opportunity to invade the Central Plains, and I am afraid that hundreds of thousands of people will suffer." ”

Zhang Meng is tall, athletic, in his fifties, and has a refined face, "Then Lord Zhong means to tolerate the Tong family's forced palace?" ”

"The old minister didn't say that." Zhong Shu glared at Zhang Meng, the military general's Zhang Meng was able to be a first-class lieutenant, not an ordinary person, he didn't dare to underestimate it, and continued: "The minister is just expressing his humble opinion. ”

Zhang Meng answered him: "It is indeed a humble opinion. ”

Zhong Shu was sixty years old, and decided not to worry about him in general, otherwise there would be something wrong with his body, so he went down to accompany the emperor in advance.

Yu Wende looked at Pei Huai'an, as if asking for his opinion.

Pei Huai'an felt his eyes, turned around, got up and walked to the hall, and said with a bow: "Lord Zhang Meng and General Cao Yucheng have both been on the battlefield, and the resolution just mentioned is good, Your Majesty can consider it, I am afraid that the ministers are not as powerful as them in leading troops to fight." ”

His cold voice lingered in the hall.

The eyes of the few people who had just been talking about it were focused on him.

Does Lord Pei mean that he doesn't want to take care of this matter, and the matter of using force will be handed over to Zhang Meng and Cao Yucheng?

A gleam flashed in Yu Wende's eyes, Yun Chu, don't you want to work for me? He pretended to look at Pei Huai'an in surprise and said: "You have learned the art of vertical and horizontal since you were young, and your party in Yaozhou has beheaded more than 8,000 chaotic troops in Yaozhou with the loss of hundreds of soldiers. ”

He couldn't tolerate Pei Huai'an's refusal.

If the Tong family rebels this time, with him, the matter is completely won by the court.

Pei Huai'an seemed to have been prepared, and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, it was a dangerous victory by taking advantage of the terrain of Yaozhou, and Weichen's trip to Yaozhou was in danger, and his life was in exchange. ”

Everyone knows about this.

It's just that at that time, everyone thought that the overseer had too much power and could not be promoted.

will let the blame be placed on the party Xiang, it is true.

The people present are all human spirits, and they have worked hard to climb up step by step in the imperial court, so they have the opportunity to be here today.

The emperor who sits high in the Ming Hall, and the most powerful minister in the court.

Is this a gap?

What the ministers can see, how can the emperor not see it.

Yu Wende frowned lightly, his face was not good, not long ago, Pei Huaian tried his best to guarantee that he could win Tong Xiangming, why is he so out of words now?

Could it be that the conversation between him and Cai Shao was leaked that day, and Pei Huaian knew that he wanted to remove his power?

The emperor's gaze looked at Cai Shao casually.

Cai Shao's body shook, and he couldn't wait to kneel down immediately to show his determination, he didn't say anything to Lord Pei, it was none of his business.

There were other people in the palace, he definitely couldn't make this move, he just wanted to end the conversation quickly, so that he could show his loyalty to the emperor.

In fact, the conversation between the emperor and Cai Shao that night was indeed known to Pei Huai'an.

It's just that it wasn't from Cai Shao, but another informant who inadvertently learned about it.

Yu Wende didn't know about this, thinking that he had some misunderstanding with Huai'an, so he could only follow his words and wait for something to say in private.

He ordered:

"That being the case, Zhang Meng, you immediately send someone to notify reinforcements to deal with the Tong family's soldiers and horses, and the three thousand battalions of the Praetorian Guard strictly guard the capital, without my order, any soldier under the command of Tong Xiangming enters Chang'an City and is killed on the spot."

Zhang Meng said yes.

The emperor then ordered: "Cao Yucheng went to surround the Tong Mansion, take them hostage, not a single mosquito can fly out of the Tong Mansion, once the soldiers meet, immediately kill all the population of the Tong family, and I immediately ordered to punish their nine clans." ”

Cao Yucheng shook his hands and said, "Obey." ”

Yu Wende looked at Pei Huai'an, and when the ministers were thinking about what big things should be arranged for the overseer, the emperor's words shocked everyone.

"Huai'an has been tired recently, so he will temporarily hand over the East Factory and West Factory, which will be managed by Cai Shao, the great eunuch of the Internal Affairs Office, and Huai'an will first be under the right minister's hand to listen to his arrangement."

Is this the removal of Lord Pei's authority?

It's as simple as that?

The important ministers in the palace looked solemn.

Especially Zhong Shu, although he is a veteran of the court, and he is the right minister, the emperor's humerus, his body still trembled when he heard the news, not for anything else, but once, Pei Huai'an cut off the head of a criminal in front of him, and the head rolled to his feet.

After that time, Zhong Shu was very frightened, and the court was not good, and it took half a month to recover.

This time, the emperor handed Pei Huai'an over to him.

The right phase trembled, swaying from side to side, as if he couldn't stand and was about to fall, Pei Huaian stepped forward to help him, and said in a cold voice: "The right minister should take care, we will work together in the future." ”

It's okay not to say it, but as soon as he said it, the right phase leaned over and almost fainted.

Seeing this, everyone hurriedly helped him sit down and called the imperial doctor to come over, and the scene was very exaggerated.

The most exaggerated is Cai Shao, when the emperor said that he would hand over the East Factory and the West Factory to him for temporary management, he was so frightened that he knelt on the ground, and before he could speak, the right minister fell first......
