Chapter 1175: kill hero

Chapter 1175 Killing Heroes

To the west of Luoyang Palace is Xigecheng.

Xu Jingzong was summoned by the prince and rushed from the Imperial Academy to Jiuzhouchi. Go out of the Imperial Academy along Shuncheng Street to Youye Gate, then through Youyemen Street to Chongqing Gate, the south gate of Xige City, all the way north, and then enter Jiuzhou Pool at Jingluhezhong Gate.

Jiuzhou City is an important royal pool garden in Luoyang Palace. It gathers the essence of Sui and Tang garden architectural art and is an outstanding example of royal gardens.

The residence is ten hectares, the water is more than ten feet deep, birds and fish swim, and flowers are planted.

However, Xu Jingzong didn't pay much attention to appreciating the beautiful scenery of the royal garden. At this time, he was walking in the garden with his servants, and at the same time, he was thinking quickly about the meaning of the prince summoning him at this time.

The court had just gone through a round of huge personnel adjustments. The emperor had not asked about military and political affairs for a long time, but suddenly killed Liu Ji, the servant of the Huangmen, and adjusted the prime minister team of the Zhengshitang. This was undoubtedly very meaningful. I don't know what it means, but it's certainly not simple.

Luoyang Palace was built by Yu Wenkai, Yang Su, Feng Deyi and others sent by Yang Guang. Jiuzhou Pool was also formed by diverting valley water from the eight waters outside Luoyang into Luoyang City. The terrain of Luoyang City is high in the northwest and low in the southeast. The water in the pool is located on the northwest highland of Luoyang Palace, and the water in the pool radiates to the palace city, forming a beautiful palace garden with dense water network and dotted with palaces, terraces and pavilions.

At the end of the Sui Dynasty, it was once destroyed by war. Qin Lang was ordered to rebuild Luoyang Palace and Jiuzhou Pool. After the completion, it was even better than the Sui Dynasty.

The prince summoned Xu Jingzong in Yaoguang Hall, the central building of Jiuzhou Pool.

Yaoguang Hall is located between the three islands of Jiuzhou Pool. The hall is more than nine feet high, two feet wide, and seven feet deep. The golden nanmu is harvested and transported from Bashu.

There is a glazed pavilion in front of the Yaojin Temple, which was donated by the Qin family when it was later restored. The entire pavilion is built with glazed columns and glazed tiles, and the whole body is crystal clear and radiant.

In the pavilion, on the glazed table, there are glazed chess boards and glazed chess pieces.

The crown prince was already waiting for him there.

"Liu Ji was killed, and Fang Xuanling left Shangshu Province and transferred to the magistrate's door to save trouble. This matter was handled beyond Gu's expectations. The Grand Scholars really did a good job. Gu is very satisfied!"

Xu Jingzong was taken aback by this straight-to-the-point remark, and hurriedly looked around cautiously.

"Guzao dismissed everyone, don't worry."

Xu Jingzong breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately said, "I dare not take credit for this matter, it is all due to Chu Suiliang's efforts."

"Gu shouldn't know the details, but I'm still a little curious, please tell Gu carefully."

Chengqian picked up a glazed chess piece, but it was a red cannon, and a cannon came first.

Xu Jingzong hurriedly jumped on a horse.

"The minister is through Li Yifu..." Xu Jingzong said eloquently, he did not dare to hide anything from the crown prince, he told the truth clearly, how he planned, and how he made the supervisory censor Li Yifu disclose the materials to the censor Doctor Han Zhongliang. Han Zhongliang's son Han Yuan, the servant of the Ministry of War, got close to Chu Suiliang and Changsun Wuji.

Han Zhongliang told his son Han Yuan, Han Yuan revealed it to Chu Suiliang, and then Chu Suiliang conspired with his eldest grandson Wuji, "The elder grandson Wuji, Han Zhongliang, Han Yuan and his son, Chu Suiliang and Laiji participated in this matter, and Cui Renshi, Liu Xun, etc. from Zhongshushe, and I heard that Yu Zhining, Duke of Yan, who was at home with Ding You, also participated in it."

Chengqian listened to this list, with a blank face, and raised a soldier.

"Is Liu Shi the uncle of Princess Jin?"

"Exactly, Princess Jin is from the Wang family of Taiyuan, with five surnames and Qiwang. Her grandfather Wang Sizheng was once the Minister of the Western Wei Dynasty Zuo Pushe, and her uncle was Wang Yu, the son-in-law of Princess Tong'an and the governor of Suizhou. It is Tong'an University The Eldest Princess recommends to Your Majesty Wang Yu's nephew, Luoshan County Magistrate Wang Renyou's daughter, who is beautiful, virtuous and talented, and Your Majesty Naiping is the Princess of Jin. Liu Shi is Wang Renyou's wife and younger brother, and the Liu family is also a famous family in Hedong."

Princess Tong'an is the younger sister of the great ancestor Li Yuan, who married the Wang family of Taiyuan among the five surnames. In the Sui Dynasty, Li Yuan was also suspected by Yang Guang. Once Yang Guang summoned Li Yuan, but Li Yuan did not come due to illness. Yang Guangda was very dissatisfied , want to punish. Fortunately, Princess Tong'an's daughter, Wang Shi, was a concubine in Yang Guang's palace at that time, and she made a statement on behalf of her uncle Li Yuan, so that Yang Guang dispelled his suspicions, calmed his anger, and let Li Yuan escape.

Later, when Li Yuan raised troops in Taiyuan, he also received the full support of the Wang family of Taiyuan. Therefore, Li Yuan loved his sister very much, and always rewarded the Wang family of Taiyuan.

Princess Tong'an came forward and told the grandniece and grandniece to Li Zhi, the grand-nephew of the Jin Dynasty. Of course, this marriage is still very good. The Taiyuan Wang family is a family of five names. Li Shimin is very satisfied with this marriage. It was achieved quickly.

As a famous family with five surnames and seven wangs, the Wang family of Taiyuan is the number one famous family in the Hedong area. It has always been related to the three big families Xue Peiliu of Hedong.

Liu Shi's grandfather, Liu Dan, once served as Taichang Shaoqing of the Sui Dynasty, Nayan Liuji, the prime minister of Emperor Wen Yang Jian of the Sui Dynasty, and his son Liu Shu, Minister of the Ministry of War, were members of the Hedong Liu clan.

Later, because Liu Shu and Liuji's father and son supported Yang Yong and opposed Yang Guang, they were convicted, and the Liu family lost power. At the end of the Sui Dynasty, Liu Shi's uncle Liu Heng joined the Wagang Army. Later, Liu Shi also went to defect, and then returned with his uncle. Don.

After Liu Heng entered the Tang Dynasty, he moved to the governor of Qiongzhou and was granted the title of male in Shouling County, while Liu Xun was also an official in Zhongshushe.

"Taiyuan Wang." The prince snorted coldly, and then subdued another soldier.

Chengqian’s wife, the Wugong Su family, is also a well-known gentry in Guanlong after the prime minister of the Sui Dynasty, but it is still inferior to the five surnames Qiwang or the six surnames in Guanlong, and the four surnames in Jiangnan.

Cui Renshi, that is the Boling Cui clan, Liu Shi, Hedong Liu clan, Yu Zhining, not to mention one of the eight pillar countries.

The power gathered around Changsun Wuji is already very strong.

The prince asked.

It is recognized that Fang Xuanling has won the holy family, and Fang Xuanling has been in the court for many years. Since Zhenguan, he has been sitting firmly in the position of Shangshu Zuopushe, and has been in charge of the affairs of Shangshu Province. His ability is also recognized, and his connections Relationships, colleagues popularity, etc. are also very good.

Xu Jingzong went to the field to defend the river boundary.

"The minister thought that Fang Xuanling had lost his holy family, and Liu Ji was killed because he violated the taboo of a minister, and Liu Ji had secretly contacted Fang Xuanling who stayed in Xijing before, which must have caused the saint to be angry. Suspicion. Ever since Duke Wei remonstrated, the sage has firmly established His Royal Highness as the crown prince, and no longer gave Wei Wang and other princes the slightest chance. He also severely demoted Du Chuke, Du Zhenglun and others. Fang Xuanling also avoided the throne at home for a long time because of this. .”

"Do you think Fang Xuanling angered the emperor this time?"

"This is inevitable. The emperor had neglected Fang Xuanling for a long time before, making him stay away from home and think about his mistakes. Although he came back as a prime minister later, the sage felt that there was no dispute about the reserve position. But now the matter of Liu Ji has led him out of Fang Xuanling's life." Xuan Ling may still have those thoughts, how could the saint not be annoyed?"

"Then why didn't the sage just ignore Fang Xuanling directly, but let him know to save trouble?"

"I speculate that firstly, Fang Xuanling's achievements are highly regarded, and secondly, because of his outstanding ability, so this transfer is also intended as a warning, giving him a chance to correct his mistakes. But, the saint must not treat him any more. Be as trustworthy as ever."

Chengqian knocked off one of Xu Jingzong's horses with a smile, "Chu Suiliang's handwriting is upright and majestic. Unexpectedly, he is also very good at playing these tricks to frame and frame false accusations. He really knows people and knows their faces but doesn't know their hearts!"

The prince has always had a bad impression of Chu Suiliang. When he was young, Chu Suiliang was a direct scholar of the Donggong Chongxian Hall, and his actions often aroused Chengqian's dissatisfaction. Later, after being severely punished by Qin Lang, he got better. Later, he won the favor of the saint, his official career was prosperous, and he became a close minister of the saint.

But this guy, like Cen Wenwen, actually went to support Wei Wang Li Tai.

This alone was enough for Cheng Qian to put him on the blacklist forever. Although Chu Suiliang saw the opportunity quickly and quickly switched to Changsun Wuji and abandoned Li Tai, Cheng Qian still had no support in his heart.

Now that Chu Suiliang personally went out to slander and kill Liu Ji, Cheng Qian would not only not be grateful, but even felt that this person was unreliable.

"At first I just wanted to clean up Liu Ji, but I didn't expect that there would be a surprise."

"It's a pity that Fang Xuanling was not completely defeated this time." Xu Jingzong regretted.

"It's okay, killing one and demoting one is enough to frighten some people, and let them understand that such thoughts should never be moved. The merits of the University Scholars will always be remembered in their hearts. Looking at Ma Zhou's condition alone, he has already It won't last long, after he leaves, Gu will definitely recommend you to the Zhengshitang, Zhong Shuling dare not say it, but the servant will definitely help you fight for it."

Xu Jingzong was overjoyed and grateful.

"Zhang Liang was called to be Minister of the Ministry of Industry this time, what do you think?"

Xu Jingzong thought for a while, "I think this is a sign that the sage is going to clean up Zhang Liang."

"how you said that?"

"I have the guts to say a few things that shouldn't be said. Chen Guan, the saint, has acted in the past few years. First, he let His Highness supervise the country and regent to experience it. Second, he began to plan for the future. The reason why he killed Liu Ji earlier was because of him. A big taboo has been committed, which aroused the bad suspicion of the sage, and then implicated Fang Xuanling."

"This is actually why Zhang Liang was called to the court as Minister of the Ministry of Industry."

"Zhang Liang also supported Wei Wang before, and I heard that there are still some entanglements."

Zhang Liang came from a grassroots background. Later, he voted in Wagang and returned to the Prince of Qin’s mansion. At that time, he contacted powerful people in Shandong for Li Shimin and did some secret errands. Although he missed, he gritted his teeth and never revealed anything. He won the trust of Li Shimin.

Although he is recognized as an idiot general, Zhang Liang's official career is very good. Before he was called into the court this time, he was still serving as an economic envoy and governor of Qinghai Road, and he was an important minister guarding one side of the frontier.

Xu Jingzong's words implied that the emperor's health may indeed be in poor condition, so he has already begun to plan for the future, preparing to remove some obstacles for the prince.

Zhang Liang himself is the Yuanxun of Zhenguan, but after he married Zhaojun Li's broken shoes, he became the spokesperson of Zhaojun Li Zaichao among the five surnames, and Li, like Fan Yang and Lu, had always supported Wei Wangtai before.

If one day Li Shimin suddenly drove to the west of Hexi, Zhang Liang, who was sitting in one side of the frontier, would be very harmful if he colluded with Li Tai and rebelled.

So the emperor simply killed Liu Ji this time, demoted Fang Xuanling, and then called Zhang Liang back to the court. Of course, a minister of the Ministry of Industry in Beijing cannot compare with a big official who is out of the border.

"Does Zhang Liang still support King Wei?"

"The Li family of Zhaojun and the Lu family of Fan Yang still have contacts with the King of Wei."

Cheng Qian's eyes reveal murderous intent.

"General!"

Chengqian shot down one of Xu Jingzong's elephants, "Since Zhang Liang is so ignorant, let's take him down too."

Kill Zhang Liang, then beat Zhaojun Li and Fan Yanglu.

Xu Jingzong moved the old commander, "I understand."
