Emperor Taizong's Growth Plan

Chapter 37 Who is it?

"From then on, you will be the envoy of Du Yiwei in Shangyu's backup office, and you will take care of all the affairs outside the palace involved in the backup office!" Xiao Cheng said in a deep voice.

Feng Bao is capable, but he is an eunuch in the palace after all, with a lot of restrictions, and he can't take too much care of people outside the palace.So it is necessary to find someone to do things for Xiao Cheng outside the palace.

Guo Jie came to Zhongqing City for only a few months, and with his bold and loyal character and his eighth-level martial arts, he gained a good reputation. He also gathered many rangers and gangsters in Zhongqing City. Well-informed, working for Xiao Cheng is perfect!

Although Guo Xie didn't know what the Shangyu's spare place was for, he also didn't know what official position this Duyiwei envoy was.

But he knew that as long as he could seize this opportunity, his name, Guo Xie, would surely spread throughout the world and be recorded in history.

"Your Majesty has great faith, and my subject, Guo Xie, will sacrifice his life to help His Majesty take power!" Guo Xie said solemnly, kneeling on the ground with his head held high.

Xiao Cheng nodded, bent down to help him up, looked at Guo Xie's face, said solemnly, word by word:

"Wang Xiao has placed a lot of people by my side, so now, apart from the name of Shangyu's backup office and my promise, I can't give you anything else. In the future, you need to be more careful!"

Guo Xie smiled confidently when he heard this, and said:
"Your Majesty, there is no need to worry too much. I have been in Beijing for a few months, and it is not a waste of time. Now, my subordinates have recruited more than half of the rangers in Zhongqing City, and Shi En has made friends with many martial arts people in Tiannan. Nowadays, there are many people in the court. The dignitaries of the family have also communicated with the ministers, and they will definitely help His Majesty!"

Speaking of this, Guo Xie went on to say:
"Your Majesty, I have heard some news and want to remind Your Majesty!"

"Say."

"I learned that half a month ago, the army of the Li Dynasty who was confronting Grand Master Wang Xiao in Yongzhou was intercepted due to the interception of the grain road. They rushed out and were ambushed. Ceded the four counties of Yi, Ju, Yong, and Qinzhou."

Xiao Cheng frowned when he heard this, and said:
"Wang Xiao agreed?"

At this time, Li Chao was exhausted, with Wang Xiao's temperament, it should be the idea of ​​swallowing Li Chao in one go.

But if that was the case, Guo Xie would not have specifically mentioned it in front of Xiao Cheng.

Sure enough, Guo Xie nodded when he heard the words, and said:
"Wang Xiao kept secret on the surface, but in fact he agreed to stop the army. Now he is on his way back to Beijing."

Xiao Cheng's complexion suddenly sank.

Wang Xiao didn't take advantage of the victory to pursue at this time, but kept the army at the border and secretly returned to Beijing by himself.Thinking of this secret plan, Xiao Cheng couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart.

"How did you get this kind of secret information? Could it be confirmed?"

Guo Xie immediately said:
"I have a good reputation now, and I have made friends with Wang Xiao's confidant, Wei Wei Zhongli. This is when he entertained me, because he had a grudge against Wang Xiao's aide, Tie Shengwen, and was angry after drinking, saying that Wang Xiao returned. I want to sue Tie Shengwen for usurping and meddling in the affairs of the Imperial Army. With a little guidance, the news that comes out of him should be true!"

This Guo Xie, in history, was extremely good at benevolent and making friends with others.After he offended Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, he asked the general Wei Qing to intercede for him in person, which shows that he has a wide network of contacts.

So he befriended Wei Wei Zhongli, which didn't surprise Xiao Cheng much.

Xiao Cheng heard the words, but he couldn't laugh or cry:

"I don't know how the Grand Master was able to endure Zhongli's trash for more than ten years."

If it weren't for Zhong Li, Cheng Bushi wouldn't have been able to control most of the Forbidden Army so quickly.

Mr. Tie couldn't stand Zhong Li's previous actions, and he swept out all his cronies in the Forbidden Army, leaving only two school lieutenants who saw the situation was not going well and knelt quickly, who were in charge of the Forbidden Army with Cheng Bushi .

Mr. Tie left two school lieutenants behind, the intention was to restrain Cheng Bushi, and he didn't want to entrust the imperial army to just one person.

But the two school lieutenants, firstly, their knees were soft, and secondly, they were frightened by Mr. Tie's methods. They felt that Cheng didn't know Mr. Tie's people, and they dared not say a word of objection.

At this time, Cheng Bushi was named Xiaowei, but he had actually become the chief general of the Forbidden Army, and he was able to dismiss his posts and establish his prestige and deploy people everywhere.

"Your Majesty, do you want me to continue to investigate?" Guo Xie continued to ask.

Xiao Cheng pondered for a moment, and said:
"It's enough to investigate, and there is no need to force anything. The main thing for you now is to choose some suitable people for me. If you have enough people, you can do more things!"

Guo Xie immediately lowered his head and cupped his fists, saying:

"Yes!"

But at this time, the street suddenly became extremely noisy, and it seemed that there was still joy and congratulations from the crowd.

Xiao Cheng casually pushed open the window and looked outside.

I saw both sides of the street, and I don't know when a lot of people gathered and looked lively.

In the distance, a wedding team is approaching with drums and gongs.

I don't know which family's sons and daughters got married. Hundreds of people greeted the bride. The servants were all dressed in bright red brocade robes. There were horses clearing the way in front of them, and the maids waved flower petals to pave the way.Afterwards, there was joy, and the servants of the strong man carried the big red box and kept throwing copper coins at the crowd on both sides, attracting congratulations from all the people.

Xiao Cheng sized his eyes and asked:
"Do you know whose family this is getting married?"

Guo Xie looked up and said:
"Ah, it's the grandson of Master Tao, the general of today's guard. Tao Yu got married. After a while, I have to go to congratulate him."

"General Wei?" Xiao Cheng turned his head and asked.

Before he crossed over, his original body was raised in the harem, and he knew little about the courtiers outside.After ascending the throne, not to mention, you don't even need to go to the court, where can you meet the courtiers?
"General Wei Tao Ai was a veteran minister during Emperor Dezong's time. He made great military achievements and was also Wang Xiao's benefactor back then."

Seeing Xiao Cheng's eyes narrowed, Guo Xie quickly spoke again, explaining:
"The old general is upright. During the Dezong Dynasty, he was imprisoned and questioned because of being attacked by his courtiers. Since then, he has no longer interfered with the government. After Wang Xiao took charge of the government, he resumed the old general's official position and wanted to make the old general a captain. The old general couldn't understand Wang Xiao's domination of the government, he resigned and refused to accept it, and even threatened to sever justice with Wang Xiao from now on..."

Xiao Cheng chuckled lightly and said:
"I know. The old general is truly worthy of respect. You can go there later and bring me a congratulatory gift."

Guo Xie immediately handed over Ying Shi, then got up and joked:

"This month, this is already the second time I have given congratulatory gifts, and I'm afraid I will give them again next month. The most unusual thing is that these three congratulatory gifts are all given to daughters from the same family."

"Daughter from the same family?"

"Yes, they are all the daughters of Yang Xuanyan, a well-known scholar in Beijing. In the past few months, his daughters have caused many powerful and powerful children in Beijing to turn against each other!" Guo Jie said with a smile.

"Yang Xuanyan?" Xiao Cheng couldn't help but move his eyes when he heard the familiar name.

In the line of sight that ordinary people can't see, Yang Xuanyan's information emerges.

[Yang Xuanyan, a native of Yan Township, Guozhou, once served as the household secretary of Shuzhou, was imprisoned for a crime, and died in prison.
