The Legend of Shushan Xuanjian

Chapter 727
Cross the saddle, fight horizontally, and go to Xiangzhou.Just a horse, stepping on the high autumn.The hibiscus is not folded, and the sound of the flute blows Sai Yunchou.If a man wants to achieve fame, he must move forward.

The young phoenix is ​​cold, the keel is rotten, the Jiaozhu is dark, and the deer gate is secluded.Reading characters, insignificant as retting.The head of the chess has been moved, and the game must be high.Don't use a long tongue to win the title.

——"Sending off Chen Sheren in Shangxiping" Wu Yong (Song Dynasty)

……

While Japan's secret agent Nobuchiyo Hojo and Usa Hachiman were discussing in secret, Donggong was also intensively planning a strategy against Baifu.

Liu Yan and Bai Fu reported that the method of raising finance and taxation, except that the water transportation was temporarily not implemented due to the war, the leveling, salt administration and other measures had been implemented, and the effect was immediate and initial results were achieved.

Shi Sun Yanji, secretary of the household department, Yun Yanying, director of the household department, and Wang Jiangting, director of the money and silver department of the household department, were quickly promoted to be the directors of the departments of the household department, finance, and storage, in charge of the world's land, population, money, valley, and tribute. endowment etc.

At the same time, major changes have also taken place in the Central Plains battlefield.

The first to bear the brunt is Huaizhou, which is located in an important city.

The rebel general An Taiqing has been entrenched in Huaizhou for many years, like a sharp knife inserted into the hinterland of the Tang army, he has become a thorn in Li Guangbi's side and a thorn in his flesh.

Li Guangbi personally led the army to besiege Huaizhou for a hundred days, but they could not attack for a long time, causing heavy casualties to the Tang army.

Relying on the new weapons provided by Bai Fu, Li Guangbi captured Huaizhou in one fell swoop and captured the rebel general An Taiqing.The various departments of the Tang army took advantage of the victories to pursue and won a series of big victories in Duji and Henan provinces.

The good news spread to the capital, Suzong Longyan was very happy, and he valued and trusted Bai Fu more and more.

As long as it is a candidate recommended by Bai Fu, no matter whether it is in the political or military circles, whether it is in the court or the state, they will all be promoted exceptionally and greatly promoted.

Among the Forbidden Army of the Beiya and the Sixteen Guards of the Nanya, who defended Gyeonggi, Iron Hammer was promoted to the general of the Zuo Yingwu Army, and Lone Wolf, Eagle Eye, Lynx, and Luotuoer were promoted to the Zhonglang General of the Zuo Yingwu Army. Qiongyu was promoted to General Zuojinwuwei.

In the Anbeiting camp, Yuchi Hushi and Li Feishubao were promoted to be the left and right soldiers and horse envoys of the Anxibeiting camp, and Tang Kui was promoted to the commander of the marching army.

Generals such as Yue Huzhu, Pei Pokong, Hu Luchong, Hou Moqiu, Yuanshenqiu, and Tang Huan were also promoted respectively.

Only Xiong Badou, Bai Fu planned to promote him to the chief history of Jingzhao Mansion.Xiong Badou politely declined, saying that he is not good at being an official, and he likes to roam the rivers and lakes and deal with black and white.Once working in the public office, the official clothes and hats are tied up.

Bai Fu respected Xiong Badou's wishes, but still promoted him a little bit. He was promoted from a bad commander in Wannian County to a bad commander in Chang'an. Hu County, Lantian, Xianyang and other important suburban counties.

For a time, Wei Guogong and Shangshu Zuopu Shebai were all in the limelight, and talents from all walks of life poured in and voted for him.

The Duke of Wei's mansion is full of traffic every day, and there is an endless stream of guests.

Bai Fu's strong rise and growing power made Prince Li Chu quite uneasy.

Although Bai Fu himself would not pose a direct threat to Li Chu, if Bai Fu supported the Generalissimo of the World's Army and Horses, Yue Wang Li Xi, or other princes, then Li Chu's crown prince would not be guaranteed.

Prince Tai Fu Li Xian urged Li Chu and Bai Fu to reconcile. After all, Li Chu is Princess Qingluan's brother, and the relationship between the two is closer than other princes.

However, because of the matter of Yongwang Li Lin, Li Chu had a deep prejudice against Bai Fu, and it was difficult to change his position.

Seeing that Li Chu refused to reconcile with Bai Fu, another crown prince Taifu Miao Jinqing reminded Li Chu from another angle.

Miao Jinqing said: "Your Highness, apart from Yue King Li Shi, Yan King Li Lai also had to guard against it. I heard that when the Duke of Wei's mansion was completed, the two mighty and vigorous silongni at the gate were sent by Yan King.

There are thirteen bumps on Suan Ni's head.This "Thirteen Taibao" is a form that only a first-rank minister can have.This move completely disregarded the imperial court etiquette, like arrogance! "

Li Chu frowned, and said: "Li Ling is still young, why is he joining in the fun?"

Grand Tutor Miao Jinqing said in a low voice: "His Royal Highness, don't forget that Princess Qingluan was not the only prince rescued by Bai Fu during the Lantern Festival Lantern Festival!

Speaking of the relationship with Bai Fu, Yan Wang is far above all the princes! "

Li Chu's face was shocked, and he suddenly realized.

Grand Tutor Miao Jinqing said: "Your Highness, in the reign of Emperor Taizong, after Prince Li Chengqian was deposed, the talented Wei Wang Li Tai and the heroic, courageous and noble-blooded Wu Wang Li Ke Erlong took the throne. In the end, the younger prince Jin Wang Li Zhi benefited. , topped Dabao.

Lessons learned from the past, we must guard against it! "

Li Chu pondered for a moment, and said: "All the princes cling to Bai Fu because he is favored by his father and holds military power. As long as one of his arms is cut off, the other princes can put an end to their delusions.

Didn't Bai Fu outsource military supplies such as military uniforms and bedding to Chang'an's embroidery workshop?Let Lu Chen check to see if he has resold military supplies and withheld military pay. "

Grand Tutor Miao Jinqing murmured: "It is said that Bai Fu, Siqing Wang Liqiu and other lords have joined forces to do business. There are many shops in Chang'an, and there is no shortage of money. You should not do these things, right?"

Li Chu sneered: "The army supplies so much oil and water, I don't believe that he doesn't take the opportunity to make a fortune? Even if he is really honest and honest, he can't keep his men clean.

What's more, the yellow mud sticking to the crotch is either shit or shit.

For things like kickbacks to make money, as long as the father suspects it, no evidence is needed.

In the morning of the next day, let Lu Chen join him for a copy! "

……

Shuo Ri Chao Hui, civil and military officials are divided into two teams.

The supervisor in the hall said loudly: "Today's morning court, there is a book to play early, and there is no book to retreat."

Holding the wat board in his hand, Lu Chen was the first to go out, saying: "I have this performance."

Suzong nodded and said, "Lu Aiqing, what do you want to play?"

Lu Chen said loudly: "When I checked the deployment of military equipment, I found that many military equipment supplies were outsourced to Chang'an Embroidery Workshop, and the price was abnormal. I suspect that someone borrowed military equipment supplies to use their hands and receive kickbacks."

All the officials were in an uproar, all looking at Bai Fu.

Bai Fuxin said: "From the day I ordered outsourcing, I knew that someone would take the opportunity to make trouble. Fortunately, I was prepared."

Bai Fu stepped out calmly, took out a book that he carried with him, handed it to the supervisor in the palace, and said, "Lord Lu's suspicions are also justified. It is said that the Ministry of War has this kind of problem of asking for cards before.

Since I took charge of the Ministry of War, I have attached great importance to this matter. Not only have I enacted severe punishments, but I have also invited Dali Temple to secretly send people to monitor it.

After the supply of military supplies was over, the minister asked Yushitai and the Ministry of Households to form an audit team to check the batch of military supplies three times to ensure that there were no mistakes.

This is the dossier compiled by the Ministry of Household Affairs, and every expense has a source, which is clear. "

After Bai Fu said it, several important officials in charge of Dali Temple, Yushitai and the Ministry of Household Affairs came out to support Bai Fu's statement.

Su Zong nodded with satisfaction.

Li Chu sighed secretly in his heart: "This Bai Fu is really a ghost, even this can be prevented from leaking. I can only find a chance to join him next time."

Lu Chen glanced at Li Chu, and said in his heart: "Your Highness, the subordinate officials have done everything you ordered. Bai Fu is shrewd and took precautions, so you can't blame me."

Lu Chen was about to return to the ranks.

Yushi Zhongcheng Yan Wu came out and said solemnly: "Master Lu, please stay. I have something to check with you."
