Great Warriors of Sui and Tang Dynasties

Chapter 691
Huainan, Jiangdu.

In the Jiangdu palace, the right servant of Shangshu shot Yuan Chongzheng to play to the emperor.

"Your Majesty, Luo Yi still refuses to go to court because of his illness, and Luo Siye refuses to go to Longyou."

The emperor's face was very ugly, "Luo Yi said he was ill, why didn't Luo Siye go to Longyou?"

"Your Majesty, Luo Siye said that there have been frequent attacks by Turkic people at the foot of Yin Mountain recently, so he cannot leave for the time being."

This answer obviously did not satisfy the emperor, "I have decided to combine the Dingxiang Jiedu Mansion and the Mayi Dudu Mansion into one, and I have decreed that Wang Rengong will take over as the commander of the northern frontier defense. Even if there is a Turkic invasion of the border, it has nothing to do with Luo Siye , and then issued an order to urge you."

The fashion book Zuo Pu shot Xiao Yu and said, "Your Majesty, what is happening now is very obvious. The uncle and nephew of the Luo family are supporting themselves, and the next step may be to plot chaos. Your Majesty has treated the uncle and nephew of the Luo family too much in the past. Their favor made them extremely arrogant. Luo Yi actually dared to rob and kill the prime minister of the court, and Luo Siye refused to obey, they clearly relied on the military power in their hands."

Although Xiao Yu regained his appearance and Luo Cheng was behind to help him, but this one has always been upright and upright, and every yard is equal to one yard.

At this time, he suggested to the emperor mercilessly, "Your Majesty, please immediately issue an edict to immediately dismiss Luo Yi'an South Road Zhenhai Jiedushi, Luo Cheng'an East Road Zhongwujun Jiedushi, Luo Siye Dingxiang Road The Jiedu Envoy of the Xuanwu Army will be dismissed from the post of Deputy Envoy of the Weiwu Army Jiedu of Luoguishan Road, and envoys will be sent to announce the decree, and they will be brought back to Jiangdu for questioning."

His attitude is that the court must never compromise with the Luo family, or else it will open this way, and it will be fine in the future.

Li Yuan, the servant of the Huangmen, was very disturbed at this time. If the Emperor Ren and the prime ministers brought down the Luo family, then Li Yuan, who was an in-law of the Luo family, would immediately lose a strong backing. The Luo family holds four towns, which is the strongest place to help.Even, if the Luo family falls, he is very likely to be implicated, at least he will be dismissed, and at worst he may be thrown into limbo again.

"Your Majesty, I think Xiao Pushe's remarks are inappropriate. Although some of his surviving subordinates testified against Luo Yi's murder in Yu Wenshu's death, this is just a one-sided statement. It may be a bit too much to draw conclusions without a detailed investigation. Too hasty. Furthermore, even if Luo Yi really killed someone, the culprit would only be Luo Yi, and Luo Cheng and Luo Siye were not involved. If His Majesty uses this as an excuse, he will dismiss some of the frontier generals and even arrest him. If they come to question their crimes, I'm afraid it will backfire, and even force them to do even more terrible things."

At this time, Lai Hu'er also pleaded for Brother Luo Cheng.

"Your Majesty, Li Xiangzhi's words are very true. If you act too hastily, I'm afraid it will backfire."

However, Xiao Yu refused to give in. He accused Li Yuan and Lai Hu'er of interceding for Luo Cheng, "Your Majesty, the uncles and nephews of the Luo family have indeed made great contributions to the country, but His Majesty also rewarded them for this. If you don’t want to be loyal to the emperor and serve the country, but want to support the soldiers and even threaten the court, this is absolutely unacceptable.”

"Your Majesty, this incident has more fully demonstrated the dire situation. The Luo family now has four towns and more than [-] soldiers and horses. If they really wait for them to rebel, it will be too late. Please also issue an order to take Luo back immediately." Even if it is found out that the case of Yu Wenshu has nothing to do with them, we can take this opportunity to take their military power, otherwise, there will be endless troubles."

Xiao Yu resolutely advocated taking over the Luo family's military power, but Li Yuan and Lai Hu'er believed that doing so might force Luo Cheng to rebel.

The key question still comes back to one point, that is, the Luo family is too powerful now, with four towns and more than [-] soldiers.Luo Cheng, in particular, was good at conquering and fighting, and the Andong Town he led was across the sea from the current Shandong Town, forming one piece.

What Xiao Yu said is good, now Luo Cheng is not rebelling, but with such a powerful strength, who knows when he will rebel, if he really wants to rebel, if he is fully prepared, he will not be able to stop him at that time Well, the safety of the country cannot be placed on Luo Cheng's loyalty.

Xiao Yu said again, "Your Majesty, please go to Taiyuan to sit in the town, and urge Wang Rengong to take over as the Dingxiang Taoist soldier. And I ask your majesty to let Rong Guogong go to Donglai to take over the military power of Shandong's mighty army."

Luo Yiyuan is in Annan, so he will not endanger the imperial court for the time being. Even if he really rebels, his strength is not strong, and he is far away from the Central Plains, but he is not afraid.

But we must guard against Luo Cheng, Luo Siye, Luo Gui and his son.

Anton's Luo Cheng is the strongest, so don't move him first.In order to ensure the stability of the Central Plains, two prime ministers personally went to stabilize the situation, one in Taiyuan and the other in Pengcheng.

"If it goes well, the military power of Dingxiang and Shandong will naturally be taken back. Although Luo Cheng has a strong army outside the pass, he will be alone and helpless, so he will not dare to mess around. If Luo Siye and Luo Gui are rebellious, the two prime ministers can also be in Taiyuan and Pengcheng. Organize soldiers and horses to intercept and defend, and prevent the rebels from driving straight in."

In Xiao Yu's words, he had already made the worst prediction of the future situation. He was not only thinking about decree to withdraw the military power, but also thinking about how the court would countermeasure if the Luo family rebelled.

At this time, Lai Hu'er said, "Xiao Pushe's strategy is good, but it's better not to make things too rigid. I think that His Majesty can issue an edict to promote Luo Siye to General Zuo Xiaowei, and transfer Luo Siye to lead the Xiaoguo Army before returning to the imperial court. Then issue an imperial edict, granting Zhang Xutuo the title of General Zuo Yiwei, and entering the court as the Minister of the Ministry of War. Conferring Luo Gui as Doctor Yinqing Guanglu, and entering the court as the Minister of the Ministry of Rites."

Lai Hu'er was not as radical and direct as Xiao Yu, but kept a line.If Luo Siye, Luo Gui, and the others are willing to join the court, that would be the best, since they can successfully regain the military power of the two towns, and at the same time, after they enter the capital, Luo Cheng will be isolated on the one hand, and will be on the other hand.

In short, as long as the Luo family does not rebel, there is no need for the court to do everything, because it should be done slowly.

If the emperor is not happy to promote the Luo family, then after this crisis is over, he can give the Luo family another promotion at any time.

But Xiao Yu still thinks that the act of coming to protect the children is connivance.

"If His Majesty continues to indulge, I'm afraid that the Luo family father and son will become even more domineering!"

"Before Luo Cheng dared to kill Duan Da, the deputy envoy of Jiedu, and now Luo Yi robbed and killed the prime minister Yu Wenshu. They ignored the king's law and believed that they had military power in their hands. Yu Guo had made some military exploits, so they were lawless , Arrogant and domineering. If His Majesty does not punish the Luo family father and son severely, then once this precedent is set, in the future, the town commanders will be so self-respecting, how can Your Majesty and the court order the world?"

On the one hand, the emperor felt that what Xiao Yu said was very reasonable, if he tolerated it, it would not only have a very bad influence, but it would be even more difficult to control the Luo family in the future.But on the other hand, what Lai Huer said was also reasonable. It is not impossible to cut down the feudal clan, but if it is too urgent, it may force the Luo family back.

For a moment he was in a dilemma.

He wanted to take the opportunity to cut down the feudal clan and take over the military power of the four towns, but he was also afraid that the Luo family would rebel.
