Ji Tang

Chapter 1024: It’s not an insult to you~!

In Chang'an Tai Chi Hall, Li Shimin's hands trembled as he looked at the secret report in his hand, not because of fear, but because he was so angry!
bang~
"Okay, you are truly my good minister!"

"Everyone is sanctimonious, but behind his back they are acting like a dog. Even the books of sages have been read into the dog's belly. How many years has it been in the Xuanzhou officialdom? It has become a place for these corrupt officials to hide their evil and evil? What a place in Jiangnan. A state, what a third state in the Tang Dynasty, really gives me and the Tang Dynasty face!"

His Majesty Dan looked at each other. They were just discussing the defense of the coast. After all, everything must be prepared. Although no one thought Ji Song would lose, what if?
Once the Nanhai Navy fleet led by Ji Song was defeated, they didn't think that Dashi and the rip-off from the Pei family would miss such a great opportunity.

Therefore, after Ji Song left, Wu Yingge took the lead in deploying defenses at important coastal ports and cities so that they could respond quickly if there was any disagreement.For this reason, the inland navy was also deployed to set up defenses at the sea outlet, just in case.

At the critical moment of the discussion, Chen Shou hurriedly came from outside and handed over a secret letter, and then this scene happened.

"Your Majesty, what makes you so angry? Xuanzhou? Could it be that something happened in Xuanzhou?"

As the head of the hundred officials, Fang Xuanling is the only one who is most appropriate to ask questions at this time!
"Look, look!"

Wow!The secret letter was thrown to the ground casually. Fang Xuanling frowned and suddenly felt that something was wrong!
"Let everyone take a look. This is the biggest scandal since the founding of the Tang Dynasty. I would like to ask you how you became the prime minister? The Xuanzhou officialdom has almost become a sieve, and the court did not notice it at all. ?”

"Or is there some hidden secret here?"

Fang Xuanling looked at the secret message in his hand, his eyelids were beating wildly, and the veins on both sides of his temples were protruding, which showed that he was angry at this time!
"Shameless!"

"Shameless, simply shameless!"

Fang Xuanling was so angry that he closed the secret letter and stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, I personally request you to go south to Xuanzhou to investigate this matter. If you don't completely uproot these moths, I will die to apologize!"

At this time, everyone felt that something was wrong. What on earth could make the emperor and the prime minister so angry?Do you still need to ask the prime minister to go south to investigate in person?

"The others retreated. Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Changsun Wuji, Yuchi Gong, Li Jing, Cheng Yaojin, Ma Zhou and Xie Lian stayed."

Li Shimin didn't say much, just left the court and asked those whose names were read to stay!

When only these few people were left in the Tai Chi Hall, Li Shimin signaled to pass the secret message to everyone.Fang Xuanling looked at Yuchi Gong with some hesitation, but when he saw that the emperor was unmoved, he still had no choice but to hand over the secret letter to everyone for circulation!
Of course Yuchi Gong saw Fang Xuanling's hesitation, but he was a little confused.But as my son is the governor of Xuanzhou, I am afraid that he will have something to do with this matter. Thinking of this, I suddenly feel a little worried!

"impossible!"

When the letter was delivered to Yuchi Gong, he felt bad after seeing the contents clearly.He quickly stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, you have watched Pauline grow up. How can you still not know who he is? He will definitely not be able to do this. Your Majesty, please be careful!"

"Also, I would like to go south to investigate this matter thoroughly. If it is true that this beast did it, I will kill him alive without your Majesty's words!"

Yuchi Gong's eyes were red, obviously he was stimulated.

They passed off inferior goods as good ones and manipulated the supplies for the expedition, even though the quantities were huge.There was also the tragic situation in the mine. Now he seemed to have found his stupid son and wanted to ask him how he became the governor?Even a pig would probably do better than him!

"Mr. E Guo, you have done a good job of avoiding suspicion in this matter. This is good for both you and Pauline!"

Du Ruhui grabbed the excited Yu Chigong and said quickly.

"Fuck you! Do you also think he did this?"

"Others don't know who he is, how can you still not know him? Even if you gave him ten courages, you wouldn't dare to do this!"

Du Ruhui had no choice but to smile bitterly and said: "E Duke, this is not the time to be impulsive. Even if this matter has nothing to do with Baolin, as the governor of Xuanzhou, he is also guilty of negligence. Where is the law of the Tang Dynasty? What do you think about this matter? The more you interfere, the more trouble you will have. When the time comes, there will be controversy inside and outside the court, and you won’t be able to explain it clearly even if you have a hundred mouths!"

"I"

Yuchi Gong wanted to say something, but when he saw everyone shaking their heads at him, his heart suddenly dropped.

"Okay, this matter will be jointly handled by the Ministry of Punishment, Dali Temple, and Yushitai. I want to see who the person behind this is?"

From the moment he saw the secret message, he knew that the matter was not that simple. The key was that it happened by coincidence.The incident at the mine can also be explained by Ji Song not trusting his subordinates to do the work, so he went to investigate on the spot.But the matter of military supplies is a bit of a coincidence.

Even a fool should know the importance of this batch of supplies.Even if they didn't notice it at first, by the time the war was over, no matter whether they won or lost, they would not be able to escape death in the end.But why take action at this time?

There is also Yuchi Paulin. This child knows herself well. Although she is a bit naive, she is not stupid.How could he have noticed such an obvious mistake beforehand?
"His Majesty."

Yuchi Gong was shocked when he heard that the emperor actually asked the Ministry of Punishment, Dali Temple, and Yushitai to jointly handle the case.It seems like this is business!

Li Shimin ignored him, waved his sleeves and left directly.

"Jingde, you have to understand His Majesty's difficulties in this matter. This matter has already involved a lot, and it cannot be hidden. Once the foreign court knows about this matter, it will inevitably use it as an excuse. As His Majesty's confidant, if His Majesty is not impartial, If you don’t handle it, that’s the biggest disaster.”

"If you want to clear the grievances of Pauline's child in this matter, there must be no personal feelings. Everything must be put on the surface. He cannot escape because he did it. It was not him, and no one can wrongly accuse him. .”

"We old guys aren't dead yet. I want to see who dares to attack me. Do you really think I won't be able to carry a knife when I get old?"

Li Jing stepped forward and patted Yuchi Gong's shoulder to comfort him.

"Yes, I will see who dares to plot against our Yuchi family this time. Not only did they plot against my son this time, they also plotted against me as well. What a good trick! What a good trick!"

At this time, Fang Xuanling also came over and said: "Originally, I don't want you to know about this in advance, but Your Majesty, please don't do anything during this period. The more you do at this time, the more mistakes you may make. You can give the enemy Take advantage of the opportunity, remember, remember!”

After walking out of the Tai Chi Hall, Yu Chigong took a deep breath.

He knew that he must not fall down at this time. Once he fell, both the Pauline and Yuchi families would be completely finished.He didn't dare to place all his hopes on the emperor, that would be a real fool!

When Li Shimin returned to the harem, he saw his eldest grandson carrying a bowl of hot soup. He took it and drank it all without thinking.

"Hey, slow down, be careful!"

The eldest grandson slapped Li Shimin angrily and quickly poured him another cup of warm tea.

Call ~
After drinking tea, Li Shimin breathed a long sigh of relief.

"What's wrong with you? Why are you so angry? I heard your roar in the harem."

The eldest grandson was also curious. As the emperor's authority grew stronger, there were few things that could make him lose his temper.

Li Shimin thought for a moment and then recounted what happened today.

After hearing this, the eldest grandson exclaimed softly: "How is it possible? Never has such a thing happened since the founding of the Tang Dynasty? They are so brave!"

"Hmph, how brave? What else can you not dare to do? You dare to manipulate the supplies given to Ji Song, and you still take the lives of my people seriously. Even if you cut them into pieces, you can't atone for your crime!" This guy Ji Song took control of the situation before anyone could react, otherwise if we give them some time, something big might happen in Xuanzhou."

"They dare!"

Changsun raised his eyebrows and said with an evil look on his face.

"What's there to be afraid of? No matter what the final outcome of this matter is, they have no chance of surviving. At this point, there are always some who are lucky."

Then he lamented: "The political clarity that I have always dreamed of is completely over. I am afraid that not many people in Xuanzhou are clean. I should not have listened to those people in the first place and handed Xuanzhou over to them to govern. If it were in the hands of Ji Song , where could such a thing happen? I'm afraid it will be cleaned up before I even raise my head!"

The eldest grandson was speechless, and she had no way to comment on this matter.

"Then who did it? Isn't this a coincidence?"

Li Shimin sneered when he heard this: "It's just those few families who took advantage of the opportunity of Ji Song's expedition to break out the matter. But the war was urgent, and he had no time to deal with it. And the finger was pointed at Yuchi Gong. , as long as Yuchi Baolin’s charges are proven true, with that old guy Yuchi’s temper, I’m afraid he will commit suicide immediately to prove his innocence!”

"It's such a good trick. This matter has revealed everyone's temperament!"

"Not only that, once Yu Chigong dies because of this, what will you let Li Jing, Cheng Yaojin, Li Ji and others think? Then I am afraid that the hard-won balance will be broken instantly, and even I will be extremely passive!"

Changsun frowned and hesitated, "Should we call Ji Song back? It would be more appropriate to leave this matter to him."

"Why call me back?"

Li Shimin said angrily: "I have become a general in the palace, so why should I change generals before the battle? Besides, those people are probably eager for me to replace Ji Song. If the Nanhai War fails again, that would be great. Yeah, I guess they can wake up laughing from their dreams!"

"You mean they still have plans in the South China Sea?" Changsun exclaimed.

"If your guess is right, this should be it!"

"It would be great if the Xuanzhou incident can be successful. Once Ji Song is withdrawn, they can manipulate the South China Sea war. Even if it fails, they can still disturb Ji Song's mind. What a good idea!"

After Li Shimin finished speaking, he suddenly became excited. How many years has it been?How many years has it been since no one dared to lift their beards?Now there is such a person, with the war in the South China Sea as the center, the Xuanzhou incident as the starting point, and my confidants who have set up such a big situation for the context. How can I be worthy of the thought he put in if I don't entertain him well?
On the Monan grassland, a group of more than a hundred cavalry galloped under the blue sky and white clouds.In front of them, there was a group of 600 aliens fleeing!
swoosh~
An arrow shot towards the foreign cavalry in front as if it had an eye, and one person hurriedly tried to avoid it, but before he could make any move, he was shot off his horse.

This arrow was like a signal, and then arrows continued to be shot from behind. Basically every three arrows could take away one person's life!

The alien cavalry also kept firing back, but it was obvious that the result was not as good as they imagined.Regardless of the range or the sharpness of the arrows, they are far behind the cavalry behind them.Even if it is shot at the opponent, it will be bounced off by the armor the opponent is wearing.

The chase lasted for dozens of miles. Seeing that the horse under his legs was almost exhausted, the cavalry behind him was still chasing after him.If nothing happens, they will inevitably be caught up.In this short distance of tens of miles, they lost more than 100 people, and the leading young alien man's face was ashen!
"Young patriarch, we can't run away anymore, let's fight them!"

The guard beside him said angrily.

"Yes, let's fight back. If this continues, we will all be shot by them sooner or later!"

"Kill back!"

The young man who was called the Young Patriarch struggled, but he couldn't bear it anymore after seeing another person beside him drop his war horse and being trampled into mud in an instant.

"Turkic warriors!"

He drew out his sword and stopped his horse, pointed at the cavalry in front, and shouted: "Kill with me!"

"Kill!"

"."

When the prey rushed towards him, the armored cavalry did not hesitate at all.A young-looking cavalryman in front put down his bow and arrow, drew his sword, and shouted: "Kill!"

A chase on the grassland finally turned into a decisive battle at this moment.

On one side are the Turkic cavalry, the old master of the grassland, and on the other side are the Tang cavalry flying the Tang flag.The two sides entered a state of fierce fighting from the beginning, and every knife would take away one life.

But taking over the battlefield, the Tang army wearing armor clearly had an absolute advantage!The Turks' swords would only leave a white mark on the armor, which could not break the defense at all.

But if the Tang Dynasty cavalry strikes with a sword, even if the opponent blocks, it will be cut in two.

In a war between 100 people and nearly 500 people, they clearly had an absolute numerical advantage, but they were beaten by 100 people and were unable to fight back.

Finally, under the leadership of the young cavalry of the Tang Dynasty, the opponent's leader was captured, and the others completely lost their will to fight!
"Surrender without killing!"

"Surrender without killing!"

"Surrender without killing!"

"."

Bang!

When one person dropped his weapon, it was like a chain reaction. The remaining less than 200 people all dismounted and surrendered.

There was a cavalry duel between 100 and 500 people, but all 100 people were wiped out!

"Reporting to the commander of the camp, our army killed more than 230 enemies, captured [-] people, and collected more than [-] horses!"

The commander of the Tang Army nodded and said, "Treat the wounded and escort all the prisoners and supplies back to the camp!"

"promise!"

The captured leader tried to struggle away, but was kicked hard by Tang Jun.

He looked angrily at the Tang Jun in front of him who frightened him and wanted to kill him quickly: "Tell me your name, and even if you die, let me know whose hands you will die in!"

The young commander glanced at him indifferently and turned away. Just when the foreign leader felt that he was insulted, he only heard: "Captain of the Tang Dynasty, under the command of the governor of the Monan Protectorate, the commander of the cavalry." , Ji Run!"

"It's not an insult to you to die in my hands!"

The leader of the foreign race was stunned when he heard this, and he was so unbelievable: "It's actually you?"
