Early Tang Dynasty: forge ahead

Chapter 202
Li Zhi looked at Chen Qingsi in front of him, with an unknown meaning in his eyes.

He had carefully considered the arrangement for Chen Qingsi to go to Lingzhou.

Now the people brought by Qibi Heli have a speech, and Xu Kai and Feng Yang have a speech.

Li Zhi couldn't tell who was lying, but he didn't really care.

This conflict was very big for the Sijie tribe and the Lingzhou frontier army, but for Li Zhi, it was nothing more than a matter the size of a grain of rice.

A small friction on the border between the emperor and the death of some people, how could it catch his eyes?
What he cares about is that Xu Kai and Feng Yang agree with each other.

Xu Kai was the favorite general of Huang Heshou, the governor of Ling and Xia prefectures, while Feng Yang was the son-in-law of former prime minister Yu Wenjie. He studied at Chongxian Hall at that time, had excellent grades and was very talented.

When Yu Wenjie was involved in the rebellion of Princess Gaoyang and Fang Yiai, he was exiled to Guizhou. Li Zhi had a good impression of Feng Yang and wanted to protect him, so he transferred him to Huaiyuan County as the county magistrate.

Although Huaiyuan County is remote, its geographical location is extremely important. It is located on the main road of the Lingzhou section of the towering Khan Road.

The imperial court set up a large trading stronghold in Huaiyuan County to facilitate the normal trade between the tribes attached to the imperial court.

Because of the existence of the Qinzhi Road and the towering Khan Road, Lingzhou, Yanzhou, Yuanzhou, and Chang'an counties can be said to be a flat river. This not only strengthens Guanzhong's deterrence against Mobei, but also allows the northern nomads to easily bypass it. The city was at the feet of the Emperor of Chang'an.

This is how Jieli Khan of the Eastern Turks came to the city.

Therefore, in order to avoid such hidden dangers, Huang Heshou, the governor of Ling and Xia Prefectures, had the power to act expediently and mobilize his own troops for combat at critical times.

Huang Heshou's father was Huang Junhan, the famous founding general.

Huang Junhan is a legendary figure. He rescued Zhai Rang, the leader of Wagang, and later defected to Wagang. During Li Mi's period, he guarded the important town of Baiya. In the second year of Wude, he dedicated the city to the Tang Dynasty and became the governor of Huaizhou and the commander-in-chief of the march.In the third year, the general manager of Huaizhou led his army to participate in Li Shimin's battle to destroy Wang Shichong and Dou Jiande, and in the seventh year, he participated in the battle to destroy Jiangdong Fugong'er.The Tang army dominated the world, and he was present on all battlefields. Chijie, the governors of the five states of Lu, Ze, Gai, Han, and Liao, the governor of Luzhou, and the governor of Kuizhou, held a hundred-war army in their hands. .

Huang Junhan had a wide network of contacts in the Tang army. He was called brother to Qin Qiong and Yuchi Jingde. He had followed Li Jing and was a lord with Li Ji.

Huang Heshou had his father's connections and was promoted quickly in the army. He is now in charge of the military affairs of the two states and guards the northern gate.

Emperor Li Zhi was very thoughtful and was destined not to trust a border commander with military power as Li Shimin trusted Qibi Heli.

Feng Yang can be said to be Li Zhi's spy next to Huang Heshou.

Now Sijiebu has told a lot about Xu Kai's evil deeds, but there is no news from Feng Yang in return.

Li Zhi would never tolerate the collusion between local military commanders and administrative officials.

Feng Yang is Yu Wenjie's son-in-law, and he also has a lot of connections in Beijing. Over the years, there have been frequent calls to bring him back.

Li Zhi also thought about it, but he couldn't find a trustworthy person to take his place, but he didn't want this to happen.

Most of Li Zhi's few trusted cronies have had dealings with Feng Yang.Only Chen Qingsi and Feng Yang had never met before, and he was able to "refuse to speak bluntly, not be afraid of the powerful, and be kind and forgiving", which met the conditions for being the deposed envoy.

Naturally, Li Zhi couldn't talk to Chen Qingsi about this kind of thing, so he found "the ability to solve cases" as a reason.

When Chen Qingsi heard this reason, three black lines seemed to appear on his forehead. He was able to catch the perpetrator in the examination room. That was Di Renjie's ability and it had nothing to do with him!
Di Renjie?
correct……

With this big boss here, are you still worried that there will be a case that cannot be solved?

Chen Qingsi thought of Mr. Di Ge and said: "When I go to Lingzhou this time, I should make an unannounced visit first. If I go there with great fanfare, I may not be able to find out the cause. I am just one person, and many things cannot be investigated. Can I ask your Majesty for someone? ?”

Li Zhi said: "Who is it?"

Chen Qingsi said hurriedly: "Di Renjie, the judge of Dali Temple."

In the imperial examination, Di Renjie ranked 27th. The Ministry of Civil Affairs knew that he assisted Chen Qingsi in solving the case and that he had the ability to break prisons, so they assigned him to Dali Temple.

Li Zhi agreed without hesitation.

Chen Qingsi immediately felt relieved.Li Zhi thought for a while and said: "I'm afraid that just one Di Renjie is not enough. Lingzhou is remote and full of dangers. If you go openly, you will be safe. There are certain risks in doing things secretly, so you need to be well protected."

He thought for a while and said: "I asked General Jinwu to arrange some manpower for you. If necessary, you can reveal your identity. Everything is for your own safety."

Chen Qingsi has always cherished her life and would never refuse.
After leaving the palace, it was almost dusk, and Chen Qingsi returned to the mansion.

When he opened the door, he saw Zhou Kui with a smile on his face.

"what happened?"

Chen Qingsi asked curiously.

Zhou Kui just smiled and said: "Master Lang, just ask the madam!"

Seeing Zhou Kui's mysterious appearance, Chen Qingsi thought of a possibility and strode towards the house.

Xiao Miaochen is waiting in the hall, Qianyan and Qingkong are guarding her, with smiles on their brows.

"lady!"

Chen Qingsi shouted pretending not to know.

Chen Qingsi has the thoughts of future generations. Now he is only 24 years old and he doesn't care about heirs or anything.

But Xiao Miaochen has been worried about this matter, and Chen Qingsi never mentioned it in order not to put pressure on her.

Xiao Miaochen was always reserved, but now she couldn't hold back her words and said, "Mr. Lang, the doctor just came to diagnose my pulse, and it has been confirmed that I have a happy pulse."

Her smile was like a flower, and her words were full of joy.

Even if Chen Qingsi noticed it, he couldn't help but smile.

Inheritance is something that is engraved in the bones of Chinese people.

Thinking that he had a successor, Chen Qingsi laughed out loud: "When did you find out?"

There was a smile in every word he said.

Xiao Miaochen couldn't help but said with joy: "A few days ago, before my menstrual period came, I started to feel something. I was just afraid that my husband would be disappointed, so I didn't dare to say anything, and I didn't dare to ask the doctor. I was afraid that I would just come a little late, and my joy would be empty. One scene. To this day, Qianyan can't help but ask a doctor to confirm his happy pulse."

Chen Qingsi remembered that his wife was really hesitant to speak these days, but she was too smart and could always round things off, so she didn't think much about it.

"This is so inappropriate!"

Chen Qingsi slapped her head and said: "If my husband had noticed earlier, he would have known the good news a few days earlier, and he would have been beaten and punished."

Xiao Miaochen smiled when she saw her husband's appearance, but tears fell for some reason.

Chen Qingsi hugged Xiao Miaochen and comforted her, making her laugh.

Looking at his wife's smiling face, he suddenly thought of the errand he was shouldering. He pulled her to sit down and said, "I carry the emperor's mandate for my husband, and I need to go on a long trip."

Xiao Miaochen was stunned for a moment, but did not ask for details. He just said, "When does Mr. Lang plan to leave? I want to help you pack your luggage."

Chen Qingsi said: "We will leave tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. If nothing unexpected happens, we will be back in three months."

The sooner you leave, the sooner you can come back...
