Chapter 1327 Five Marshals Return to Court
"Please make Concubine Wei Huangchen the empress."
Zhongshu Ling Li Yifu's memorial is well known in Luoyang, but what Luoyang soldiers and civilians are talking about is that the disgraced left servant who was just impeached by the censor not long ago shot Xu Jingzong, this time he also went up The table echoes and please make Webster as the latter.
As for the other four phases Cui Yixuan, Xue Yuanchao, Dou Dexuan and Wei Xuanzhen, they naturally agreed earlier.
I only listen to new people laughing, and sometimes old people cry.
In Luoyang Palace.
"At home, the commanders of the Privy Council have arrived."
Li Yin didn't raise his head, "Whose memorial?"
Now the Privy Council and Zhongshumen are called the Second Government, and they are in charge of military affairs. There are five chambers under the Political Affairs Hall, and twelve chambers under the Privy Council, which are even divided into upper and lower chambers, which are respectively led by the Privy Envoy and the Privy Council Affairs, and there are also Privy Council Deputy Envoys and Tongzhi Privy Council Affairs, and signed Privy Council Affairs and Colleagues. Several people who signed the Privy Council were deputy officials.
Li Ji was the privy envoy and led the upper house, Cheng Yaojin was the judge of the Privy Council and led the lower house, Su Dingfang, Niu Jinda, Li Sheer, Li Heli, Qin Guozhong, and Li Sili were all deputy second.
"The privy envoy Li Ji, Tongzhi Privy Council officer Cheng Yaojin and other commanders all have memorials."
Li Yin raised his head.
"Submit it."
First, I opened the memorial to Li Ji, and it was indeed a memorial to the abolition of Su Liwei. Li Ji still had the usual attitude, "This is the emperor's family business!"
Then look at Cheng Yaojin, Cheng Yaojin also expressed his attitude, saying that he supports the saint and obeys the will.
Looking at what Su Dingfang said, it was almost a rhetoric.
Li Yin put together the memorials of Cheng Yaojin, Niu Jinda, Su Dingfang, Qin Guozhong, and Li Sheer, looking at this and that.
After a long time, he chuckled twice.
"It seems that Grand Master Qin has backed down again."
As military commanders, these five people are all of high military merit and high prestige in the army. Niu Jin Dajiu is in Liaodong, Cheng Yaojin has been guarding Youjin, Su Ding Fangyuan is in Mobei, and has been guarding the Korean peninsula all these years. .
Qin Guozhong and Li Sheer, the two Turkic county kings, are both the sons of Luo Khan in Turkic Chu. They are brothers, but Qin Guozhong is Qin Qiong's adopted son. Although She'er doesn't call Qin Lang brother or brother, but there is that level of relationship, which is also a good relationship.
After generals such as Li Jing, Zhang Shigui, Duan Zhixuan, Yu Chigong, Chai Shao, Li Daozong, Xue Wanche, and Li Simo all died of old age, illness, or were imprisoned for being involved in rebellion cases, now there are more powerful fighters in the court with high qualifications and prestige. That's a dozen or so.
Five of them are closely related to Qin Lang, so Li Yin naturally dare not underestimate them.
He has been waiting for the military's statement, just like when he liquidated Changsun Wuji before, only when the military officially expressed its full support and support, did he really start.
Now, the public opinion has almost been formed, just waiting for the military's attitude.
The attitude of Li Ji and others was beyond his expectation, but the attitude of Cheng Su and the five handsome men surprised him a little. I thought that based on their relationship with Qin Lang, they would definitely fight after the abolition of Su Liwei, but they were so decisive.
After thinking about it for a while, he realized that Qin Lang probably had secretly communicated with them, and it might even be Qin Lang who persuaded them to make such a statement.
Abandoning pawns to save cars or a strong man cutting off his wrists?
Qin Lang wanted to show his attitude, he had no intention of disobeying the emperor, and he didn't want to interfere in the event of abolition or even easy storage? Even showed that he had no intention of being above the court?
But Li Yin didn't relax, and even frowned even tighter.
"Grand Master, Grand Master."
Li Yin shook his head.
Qin Lang's influence is too strong, especially to have such influence over the military commanders, how can Li Yin feel at ease.
Su Dingfang was Qin Lang's protégé, Cheng Yaojin and Niu Jinda were Qin Qiong's life-and-death friends, Qin Guozhong was brother Li Sheer, and had a close relationship with the Qin family.
Let’s go down a little bit from these generals, those generals who can fight in those years, such as Cheng Chumo, Niu Jianhu, Xue Rengui, Liu Rengui, Liang Jianfang, Gao Kan, Xi Junmai, Wang Xuance, etc., are all called Qinmen’s disciples .
Even though Qin Lang has been away from the center for many years, now that the memorials of several generals are published, Li Yin is uneasy.
"My Li family's world, is the grand master in charge?"
Previously, Li Yin succeeded to the throne, but Changsun Wuji was the real head of the family. It took him more than ten years to completely wipe out Changsun Wuji's party, and finally regained power. Unexpectedly, Qin Lang was not in the court. However, it still has such influence.
"At home, the Privy Council has submitted another memorial."
"Um?"
Li Yin looked at the memorials in front, what else?
The servant once again presented the Privy Council Memorial.
Put at the front is Su Dingfang, who is a member of the Privy Council and the head of the North Korean Economic Strategy and Propaganda Envoy. Su Dingfang's memorial just now expressed his loyalty and support for the emperor, and this is a resignation.
Please resign from the Privy Council of Tongzhi, the reason is that guarding North Korea outside, it is really impossible to take care of the Privy Council, so please resign. At the same time, Su Dingfang also thought that North Korea was now stable, so he believed that there was no need for the imperial court to continue to set up Xuanfu economic strategy envoys, and asked to withdraw them.
Looking at the memorials of Cheng Yaojin and Niu Jinda, they are also rhetoric.
Li Yin stared at these memorials, pinched his chin and thought about it. The rhetoric of several Privy Council commanders is of course unusual. If there is no previous supportive memorial, Li Yin will be furious just looking at these few rhetoric, thinking that they are taking the opportunity to blackmail them.
But now, he is also a little puzzled.
But there is one thing that makes him sure, that is, the badges of the five of them were sent at the same time, but what they reveal is that they acted in unison, which must be connected in advance.
This is a taboo.
However, Li Yin has to deal with these military commanders with high qualifications and prestige carefully. This is no better than dealing with Laiji or Cui Dunli. Even if they are prime ministers, it is not too troublesome for the emperor to deal with them. Privy secretaries are in power, especially the border commander who is still leading the army on the frontier, so he has to be careful.
"Call Li Yifu and Xu Jingzong to come."
Li Yin did not call the other four prime ministers, because although they were more obedient, they were not as capable as Li Xu.
Two people enter the palace.
Li Yin threw the two batches of memorials before and after the Privy Council to the two of them.
"how?"
Li Yin asked while holding a teacup.
Xu Jingzong chose his words carefully, "Your Majesty is wise, and all the generals in the army support him."
Li Yin looked at Li Yifu.
"The minister thinks."
"Cheng Niu and other marshals really guarded the frontier when they came here, and they were not in Beijing for a long time. They really couldn't take care of the affairs of the Privy Council. They are not competent, and it is normal for them to resign."
But the emperor just shook his head.
Li Yifu hurriedly said again, "The war in the east is over, why don't you call a few generals back to the court, and return to the Privy Council to take charge of the military affairs."
The emperor still shook his head.
At this time Xu Jingzong spoke up.
"First accept the resignations of several marshals, remove their posts in the Privy Council, and then transfer to other less peaceful border areas, and continue to play a pillar role for the stability of the Tang Dynasty."
As soon as Xu Jingzong said this, Li Yin nodded.
If the Privy Council is only removed, then these marshals are still at the border, still commanding the army, which may irritate them, just in case.
But if he is removed from the post of border marshal and recalled to the Privy Council, Li Yin is not at ease.
Now Xu Jingzong proposes to remove them from the Privy Council first, and then make a big switch, leaving the border area that these marshals have been guarding for a long time, and switching to other border areas. In this way, the soldiers will be separated from their old subordinates , even if they still have some ideas, but after leaving the old confidants and going to the unfamiliar new frontier area, it will be difficult to pose any threat.
The most important point is that North Korea, Youjin, and Liaodong are all located in the northern coastal areas, and Qin Lang, the grand master whom the emperor fears the most, whose Lu Song is in the South China Sea, is all coastal areas. Time, then they can be connected from north to south and echo each other, which is what the emperor is most worried about.
Don’t be afraid of ten thousand, always be afraid of what happens.
"Cheng Yaojin, Duke of the State of Jialu, moved from the first-rank hussar general to the left guard general, and was transferred to Qinghai Road Xuanfu economic envoy."
"Bull Jinda of Jiayue State reached the rank of general of the second-rank auxiliary state, moved to the rank of general of Zuowuwei, and transferred to Guizhou Zhongdao to propagandize and appease economic strategy."
"Jiaxing Guogong Su Dingfang was promoted from the rank of general of the second-rank town army, and Zuo Xiaowei was the general of the general, and he was transferred to Shuofang Dao Xuanfu Jinglue envoy."
"Li Sheer, the king of Guide County, Jia Fuguo General, Youwei General, Tiaohu South Road Xuanfu Jinglue envoy."
"Qin Guozhong, the king of Huaihua County, added Hushi General, You Xiaowei General, Tiaomengchi, Kunling Xuanfu Jinglue envoy."
······
From North Korea, Liaodong, Youzhou, Bingzhou, and Mobei to Qinghai, Guizhou, Shuofang, Hunan, and the Western Regions, even the positions have changed. Duties such as the governor or the governor of the governor's office guard one side.
Now it is awarded the title of Xuanfu Economic and Strategic Envoy, which is far from the title of the chief executive of the camp during the war, or the title of the chief governor when he was stationed.
"What if they don't obey the edict?" Li Yin asked again.
Although this possibility is very small, Li Yin knows that it is not completely impossible. Before issuing this transfer order, he must consider any possible consequences and make a plan in advance.
Li Yifu gritted his teeth.
Qin Qiong and Qin Lang are his benefactors, but now that they are in this official position, there are some things that must be chosen.
"Anyone who dares to resist the order and fails to obey it is plotting against the law, and can be killed on the spot, beheaded first and then played."
Li Yin turned to look at Xu Jingzong.
"Your Majesty can first send envoys in the name of condolences to the border town, and first announce the secret decree to one or two generals in the border town who are loyal to His Majesty and the court, and then call Cheng Niu and others to read the official transfer order. Directly order the generals who accept the secret order to behead him or arrest him and send him to Beijing."
Li Yin nodded.
Xu Jingzong is indeed more sophisticated, and he has thought about everything and is fully prepared.
No matter how prestige Cheng Yaojin and others are in the army, it is impossible for them to be his confidantes in a town. As long as they are prepared in advance, there is no room for Cheng Yaojin and others to resist in case.
"Okay, this matter will be done according to your order."
