Jiangnan, Long Zhaohuan looked forward to the stars, and hoped that the moon did not look forward to the return of his army. What he looked forward to was his sister's return, and he was returning with honor.
Now in Jiangnan, Long Lingxiu has a great reputation. The so-called single-handedly ambassador to the two rivers, for the dawn of Jiangnan, the people dared to die generously regardless of personal safety. In short, all kinds of false names fell on Long Lingxiu's body, let Long Lingxiu Has a very high reputation.
At the same time, the one who returned with Yong Lingxiu was the Jinbei General Wu Yee this time. None of the soldiers from Gyeonggi returned. The main general Wu Yee returned. I have to say that this was a very dramatic result.
Long Zhaohuan was originally going to go out of the city to meet him personally, but when he heard of this situation, his heart was really refreshing, and the counselors around him advised him that he would not be able to welcome Long Lingxiu into the city anyway. Long Lingxiu had better not Live in Jinling.
In fact, Long Lingxiu's current position is very embarrassing. Long Zhaohuan doesn't need this woman to exist at all. On the contrary, with this woman, he is worried about the change of Tan Jiajun. Under such circumstances, he wished that Long Lingxiu would never return to Jiangnan.
But things backfired. The more he didn't want to happen, the thing happened. What should he do at this time? What can he do?
"Cleverness was wronged by cleverness, now it's fine! I thought that the strategy I used was counterproductive!" Long Zhaohuan said to the left and the right.
Or a counselor said: "Your Majesty, this strategy was given to your Majesty by Dong Yong. Dong Yong seems to be loyal, but he may actually harbor evil intentions. Your Majesty must not trust such people who deceive people with horrible words!"
Long Zhaohuan was irritable. It was not that he didn't think of Dong Yong, but Dong Yong gave him even more ruthless schemes because he himself did not dare to adopt it.
"Well, everything about Jiangnan is my decision. Even if a counselor made an improper plan for me, it was because I accepted it that caused such a consequence.
What do you want me to do? Do you still want me to punish others? If that's the case, who would dare to make suggestions in front of me in the future? "
When Long Zhaohuan said this, the audience was silent, because for them they could no longer speak. After all, everyone was eating a bowl of rice. If they were convicted of words, how could this bowl of rice be eaten?
But the problem is that Long Lingxiu has already arrived outside Jinling City at this time. What is Long Zhaohuan's attitude? See or not? If not, what incidents and rumors will be caused?
The current Jiangnan regime is very fragile, and Long Zhaohuan’s life as His Majesty is not easy. If he does not forbear and act cautiously everywhere, he is very likely to make mistakes, which will lead to internal divisions.
In fact, the Ministry of Etiquette is already closing the mouth of Wanmin, but there is always a force that is constantly waving the flag for Long Lingxiu. When a princess's name is louder than her Majesty, it may not necessarily be a blessing to the Dakang Dynasty.
Couldn't Long Zhaohuan understand these truths? Of course he understood, but he really didn't want to see Long Lingxiu, he didn't even want to let Long Lingxiu enter Jinling.
But the elder princess as big as Jinling has already been completed, and the eldest princess returned in triumph and could not stay in the princess mansion. How did the people in the world think about this? Will the civil and military officials be chilled by this?
And Long Zhaohuan’s regime needs to rely on many powerful powers. How will these forces view this matter? All in all, these little things have caused a great constraint on Long Zhaohuan, making Long Zhaohuan a little bit at a loss, don't know what to do!
"Your Majesty, the key to the present plan depends on the attitude of Tan Jiajun. Tan Jiajun is now in Wuling. His Majesty only needs an imperial decree to make Tan a general in the north, so that he can guard Wuling all the year round. Wuling is far away from Jinling, and the princess lives in the capital. There is no way to contact Wuling. In this case, we can guarantee the absolute safety of Gyeonggi. Even if the long-sleeved princess is good at dancing, she is helpless when she is isolated and helpless!" A counselor offered advice to Long Zhaohuan.
Long Zhaohuan nodded lightly and nodded, and said, "It should be the case today, but it is just a stopgap measure, it must not last long! The so-called not afraid of thieves, I am afraid that thieves are thinking about it. I am worried that we will guard against thieves for thousands of days. Tired, if you look back, you may fall short with just a little negligence. That would be really too bad!"
"Your Majesty does not need to worry. In fact, the most important thing for your Majesty now is to let Tan Jiajun completely submit to your Majesty. Now that Tan Jiajun looks like a monolithic piece, there are internal discords!
Tan Cheng is now the head of the family, but the former head is Tan Lei, and Tan Lei is not dead. His Majesty can arrange for someone to find Tan Lei secretly, and then create opportunities for Tan Lei to make Tan Jiajun fight first.
As long as the Tan Jiajun fights inwardly, they can no longer follow Long Lingxiu's orders. What should they do then? Your Majesty can take advantage of the vacancy to completely separate the Tan Jiajun, and even put a part of his majesty's cronies into the Tan Jiajun. At that time, Tan Jiajun has returned to your Majesty. What if the eldest princess has the skills? "
Hearing the advice of his counselor, Long Zhaohuan gradually stabilized his heart, and immediately ordered Jinling to open the middle gate to welcome Long Lingxiu into the city with the highest honor. The first thing Long Lingxiu did after entering the city was to enter the palace to meet the emperor. Then the two performed a show of brotherhood in front of hundreds of civil and military officials and the common people of the world.
However, when Long Zhaohuan saw Wu Lie, no matter how deep his city was, he felt that his acting skills really couldn't stand it! Wu Lie is a bastard, Long Zhaohuan has entrusted him with a heavy responsibility, but what is the result?
This guy threw tens of thousands of horses in his hand to Gyeonggi. He came back in a desperate manner. The various forces in Jiangnan have caused a lot of waves because of this incident. This time, it is the soldiers of Jiangnan who are in Gyeonggi. .
Many of these soldiers have their fathers in Gaotang, and even some of their wives and children are also in Jiangnan. Now they can’t go back anymore, but the leader of the army has returned unscathed. How can Long Zhaohuan and Jiangnan come back? Father confessed?
After Long Zhaohuan and Long Lingxiu performed a play, Long Lingxiu went out of the palace and returned to the princess mansion, but Wu Lie was still kneeling outside Long Zhaohuan’s warm pavilion. In this way, he had been kneeling down in the middle of the night, when the deacon **** came and called him. Go to see your majesty.
When he arrived in front of Long Zhaohuan, Wu Lie crouched on the ground, howling and crying, and said, "Your Majesty, the guilty minister deserves ten thousand deaths. I beg your Majesty to reward Wu for a certain death, and thank the world with Wu's life!"
Long Zhaohuan’s expression was originally extremely gloomy, but after hearing Wu Lie’s words, his expression slightly eased, and immediately he couldn’t help asking:
"Wu Lie, I'll just ask you a word. I gave you 30,000 or 40,000 horses. You didn't have any camps in the north, and you didn't even have a head-on confrontation with the Liaodong Army.
But now that you are back alone, and my tens of thousands of horses have disappeared without a trace, I will ask you, how do you face me? How do you face Jiangnan's elders?
Also, how do you ask me to explain to Jiangnan Elder? This fact is too big, your sin is too big! I just want to protect you. I'm afraid Jiangnan elders won't agree, do you think? "
Wu Yee said, "Your Majesty, the minister deserves ten thousand deaths. No matter how you deal with your ministers, your Majesty has nothing to say. But regarding this matter in Gyeonggi, the minister still needs to give his majesty the cause and consequence, because this matter is extremely important, and it is related to Jiangshan Sheji... …"
After Wu Lie finished speaking, he was crying again. Although Long Zhaohuan was hard-hearted, he couldn't help but move when he heard Wu Lie say this.
"Tell me, what is going on? Let me open my eyes too!"
Wu Lie swallowed, and even if he talked about the causes and consequences of how he was deceived by Long Lingxiu, of course he and Long Lingxiu had already designed a statement before that. He added fuel and vinegar to all his statements because of Long Lingxiu. Not only the princess, but also the imperial minister.
Wu Lie, as an official in Xinjiang, happened to be unable to reach Jiangnan. In that case, Long Lingxiu asked him to go to Bianzhou. Can he think that he would never return?
He was fooled by Long Lingxiu. Originally, Long Lingxiu asked him to bring tens of thousands of soldiers out of Gyeonggi to Lu Zheng. Wu Lie was a resolute struggle against this. Later Long Lingxiu might worry that after Wu Yee went to Gyeonggi. Instead of coming back.
Or to force Wu Lie too eagerly, Wu Lie dog jumped the wall in a hurry, and simply died. Then Long Lingxiu's glorious image for herself would definitely collapse immediately, and it would not be worth the loss for her!
Not only that, but the most important point is that Long Lingxiu is still afraid of Long Zhaohuan. If she really does too much, Long Zhaohuan will not tolerate her, and the two may even have the affection on face. There won't be.
Wu Lie didn't reserve all of these things, and said all of them clearly and plainly. He seemed bold to say so, but in fact he completely put away his own responsibility.
The most important point is that Wu Lie's statement was obviously based on Long Zhaohuan's preferences, and Long Zhaohuan was now afraid of his sister. In this situation, if someone said good things about Long Lingxiu in front of him, his mood would definitely not be good, and there would be resistance.
But if someone speaks ill of Long Lingxiu, such as Wu Lie’s description, clearly and plainly about Long Lingxiu’s insidious cunning and cruelty, he said so, it makes Long Zhaohuan feel that he has seen it with his own eyes. All this was normal, which undoubtedly made Long Zhaohuan very angry, but at the same time more sympathetic to Wu Lie.
"Dangdang" Long Zhaohuan severely smashed the pen wash on the table to the ground and broke it, and then he said: "It's really unreasonable! I didn't expect to know the person, the face and the heart, this time something like this happened in Lianghe. !
Wu Lie, do you know how serious this matter is? If you make a false statement about this matter, the eldest princess can't spare you, and I can't spare you either! Are you not afraid? "
Wu Lie held his head high, pretended to be very loyal, and said: "Your Majesty, everything is nothing but death! But I Wu Lie is tired of Your Majesty's Long En, and I have to say what I have in my heart before I die. Regardless of whether your Majesty believes it or not, as a courtier, I should do my best!
If you die, you will die. Anyway, our brothers in Gyeonggi might already have someone waiting for me on Huangquan Road at this time! Our brothers went on the road together, no regrets, no regrets..."
