I, Liu Bian, Sanxing Han Dynasty

Chapter 255 Apology
Tang Qun was the adopted son of Tang Heng, but he was not the eldest son who inherited Tang Heng's title of Marquis of Ruyang. Last year, he was recruited into the Sikong Mansion by Fan Lingzheng and served as a vassal of Bi Erbai Shi.

The censor who first impeached Zhao Qi learned about the relationship between Zhao Qi and Li Shen from Tang Qun.

As for the sporadic impeachments that followed, it was a deliberate attempt to please Tang Qun.

Liu Bian felt tired for a while.

The good news is not a regional dispute, the bad news is a problem caused by foreign relatives.

It was evening, and Liu Bian, who had heard about the incident for the first time, had not yet decided how to deal with it - Tang Qun just told the truth.

As Lu Zhi said, he is still willing to be reasonable in most situations.

This can't be blamed on Fan Ling, and he still needs someone like Fan Ling who is capable and willing to obey him regardless of the reason, so he can only accept some small shortcomings of Fan Ling that do not harm the overall situation. Moreover, the recruitment of subordinate officials in the Sangong Mansion itself was decided by him, which was also a major source of the lofty status of the Sangong.

During the hesitation, Guo Zhi came to report that the Tang nobles had invited Liu Bian to have dinner at Changping Hall tonight.

It was rare for Liu Bian's three dignitaries to take the initiative to invite them, although it was not unheard of, but in this situation, Liu Bian couldn't help but think more.

Liu Bian reassured: "Wan'er's brother-in-law certainly has selfish motives, but he just settled an old score and did not commit any frame-up. This is not a serious crime."

On the way to the Changping Hall, Guo Zhihu, who was accompanying Liu Bian, said: "Your Majesty, the wife of Xun Youcheng, the Minister of Public Affairs, came to the palace during the day to meet with the nobles of the Tang Dynasty."

Liu Bian nodded and asked, "If I don't know, what are Wan'er going to say?"

When the person next to his pillow cries, Liu Bian wants to forgive her.

He agreed and was ready to go immediately. Anyway, there was nothing urgent in the remaining memorial documents and could be left for tomorrow.

Xun Yu's wife is Tang Qun's sister and Tang Wan's eldest sister. This close relationship...

Thinking of this, Liu Bian saw Tang Wan, who was being helped into his arms, startled. He blinked again and asked with a hint of coquettishness, "You already know?"

He stepped forward and took Tang Wan's hand into the palace. When he asked why, he never thought that Tang Wan would kneel down and worship Liu Bian directly in the palace.

He finally understood what pillow style meant.

Tang Wan obediently recounted what Liu Bian had learned from the beginning, but from Tang Qun's perspective - Tang Qun saw that Zhao Qi was getting older and stronger, and he was afraid that Zhao Qi would take revenge in the future when he gained power.

There was a hint of sob in Tang Wan's words: "I followed my brother for my own selfish purposes, and almost disrupted the general government. It is really a big crime..."

When Liu Bian came to Changping Palace, Tang Wan was already waiting in front of his door. Liu Bian noticed that Tang Wan's eyes were a little red.

Liu Bian helped Tang Wan up. Seeing Tang Wan's pear blossoms covered with rain, he sighed and said, "This matter has nothing to do with you."

Logan was very innocent to begin with.

After that, it's just the same old stuff.

afterwards.

Seeing that Tang Wan's mood had eased a little, Liu Bian smelled the fragrance coming to his nose and said, "Didn't you say you were going to invite me tonight? Are you ready?"

Liu Bian finally had time to think about Xun Yu's role in it.

Jia Xu would not have revealed the news to Xun Yu first, and Zhang Rang had no friendship with Xun Yu.

On the premise that Xun Yu was not aware of Liu Bian's concern, he should have learned about it at the Chancellor's Desk or from his wife, and then tactfully revealed his relative's troubles to Liu Bian in this way. It seems to be his handiwork. A few days later, Liu Bian finally met the envoys from the Three Kingdoms of the Western Regions.

However, because of all the things that happened in the process, and Han Rong's deliberate remonstrance in the form of settling accounts, when the envoys actually appeared in front of Liu Bian in the court, Liu Bian felt a little boring. .

Just follow the procedures.

The envoy from Shanshan State spoke affectionately about the behavior of the rear of the Che division uniting with the Xianbei people to oppress the Shanshan people.

The Cheshi Kingdom is divided into two parts, the front and back, each with its own king. The latter has the largest population and is almost located in the northernmost part of the Western Region. According to the records Liu Bian has read, the rear section of the chariot division had the most connections with the Huns.

For example, the background of the story of Thirteen Soldiers Returning to Yumen is that the Northern Xiongnu killed the pro-Han King Che Shi and supported the pro-Hun King, and the two joined forces to attack Geng Gong.

The envoys from Shanshan State were very emotional, especially when they mentioned that the rear of the chariot division teamed up with the Xianbei people to plunder the women of Shanshan State and nearby small countries, and wantonly killed the old and weak men.

Even killing people for fun.

After talking about it, I burst into tears.

The envoy from Qiuci State next to him also told about the intrusion into his territory from the rear of the Che Division.

Although the Khotan Kingdom was in the south of the Western Region, its envoys could not help crying and said a few words to the envoys of the other two countries, which proved the cruelty of the kingdom behind Che Shi.

Faced with the atrocities suffered by people in both countries, Liu Bian could not be said to be unsympathetic.

But regarding the envoys from Shanshan and Qiuci requesting the king's division to go to the Western Regions to seek justice, Liu Bian kept in mind the previous decisions and the current situation of the Han Dynasty, knowing that it was almost impossible for the Han Dynasty to send troops to seek justice in the Western Regions. What was accomplished was never spoken.

Anyway, there was no need for him to refuse in person, he just needed to be a high-ranking clay sculpture.

When the courtiers faced such brutal behavior from the rear of the chariot division, many of them became indignant and felt the same way - in the past few years, the Han Dynasty had also been bullied by the nomads in the north. In the past it was the Xiongnu and now it is the Xianbei. Although They were all beaten back, but the damage suffered could not be erased.

Kong Rong, who always liked to talk, could not hold back, and immediately asked to send an envoy to reprimand the queen of Cheshi, and ordered the queen of Cheshi to sever ties with Xianbei.

That is to say, he still had some idea in mind and didn't say anything about sending troops.

Zou Jing, the captain of Fengche, was from Youzhou. He knew Xianbei well and knew that Xianbei people were capable of such things.

He stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, I have seen that the actions of the Cheshi Hou Kingdom have aroused the anger of the people in the Western Regions. I am willing to go to the Western Regions to contact the Western Regions to form a coalition to eliminate this evil!"

It is also the tradition of the Han Dynasty in the Western Regions to use the military strength of the countries in the Western Regions to defeat the non-subordinates, but usually there will be an organized Han army as the leader.

Zou Jing's unforeseen events were somewhat beyond Liu Bian's expectations. The former was obviously aware of the situation in Liangzhou and only said he would go there on his own, not that he would lead troops.

Liu Bian was immediately moved.

It's just that he has some doubts about whether Zou Jing has Ban Chao's ability - his resume is not a problem. Not only did he serve as a lieutenant colonel in the Northern Army, he was also a general who had actually fought in a war. But ability... Anyway, Liu Bian didn't remember any outstanding achievements he had.

But Liu Bian did not agree immediately, but was waiting for other people's explanations.

Han Rong, the minister of Honglu, said: "Your Majesty, this discussion is of great importance. We will discuss it later."

Liu Bian understood that there was no need to have this argument in front of the envoys from the Western Regions. The process should be completed first.

As for whether to send Zou Jing, we can discuss it slowly after the meeting.
