The wheat is yellow, and the rice is full.

Build high walls and accumulate grain.

Raise war horses and fattened sheep.

Shake the world, the king of Ganzhou.

.........

In the past few days, a catchy children's song has quickly spread on the streets of Chang'an, and almost all children in Chang'an are singing this song.

Zuo Shiji, who was in charge of collecting public information, quickly reported the matter to the imperial court.

In the Zhongshu Council, the right minister Lu Qizheng and the left minister Li Mi met to discuss court affairs, and many decrees and wills need to be coordinated before they can be reported to the Son of Heaven, otherwise the left minister has the right of veto, which will invalidate the reply of the Son of Heaven and affect the authority of the monarch.

Lu Qi took out a recital and handed it to Li Midao: "This is a recital reported by Zuo Shiji, a strange children's song appeared in the capital, and it was spread throughout the capital, Zuo Xiang take a look!" ”

Li Mi watched it again, and this children's song turned out to be aimed at Guo Song, and he frowned and said: "This is obviously someone framing Guo Song, this kind of nonsense can't be taken seriously." ”

Lu Qi laughed dryly and said: "I also think it's a bit strange, but since this kind of proverbial nursery rhyme has come out, there must be a reason, I suggest that the Son of Heaven is submitted and let the Son of Heaven judge." ”

Lu Qi saw that Li Mi was a little hesitant, and said with a smile: "Zuo Xiangguo won't let me follow Yang Yan's example, and he won't report it!" ”

This sentence was really ruthless, so Li Mi couldn't refute it for a while, so he had to nod, "I also agree to report to the Son of Heaven!" ”

In the imperial study, after reading this recital, Li Shi slapped the table heavily, and said very dissatisfied: "It's ridiculous, can't you let me save snacks?" The Central Plains and Hebei are in a mess, and now Hexi is also doing things. ”

Lu Qi bowed and said: "Your Majesty, the main nursery rhyme has spread too widely, almost all the children in Chang'an are singing it, and Weichen feels the need to let His Majesty know." ”

Next to him, Li Mi said: "Your Majesty, the main thing is that this nursery rhyme is catchy and easy to learn, if someone spreads it around, of course it will spread all over the city." ”

Li Shi was stunned and asked, "What does Li Xiangguo mean is that someone is framing Guo Song?" ”

"Wechen can't be sure, but it's possible."

Li Shi's gaze turned to Lu Qi again, "What do you think Lu Xiangguo should do?" ”

Lu Qi bowed and said: "The humble position also thinks that there is such a possibility, if the imperial court is allowed to investigate, it seems to be a bit of a fuss, the humble position suggests that the Tibetan Sword Pavilion secretly investigate, who is spreading nursery rhymes behind the scenes, if someone frames Guo Song behind the back, the imperial court will severely punish it, and return Guo Zhijun an innocent."

But if the nursery rhyme comes from Hexi, we must also find out why there is such a nursery rhyme, Weichen's attitude is obvious, he will never wronged good people, nor indulge careerists. ”

Lu Qi said very glossy, and the suggestion was also very reasonable, completely in line with the identity of a Xiangguo, Li Shi nodded, "The suggestion is very good, I will arrange the Hidden Sword Pavilion to investigate this matter." ”

Li Mi always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't say it, he just felt that Lu Qi had always been very biased in doing things, which made people criticize, but this matter was handled very perfectly, and it was so perfect that it was impeccable, which was very different from what he usually did, this matter was a bit abnormal, and Li Mi faintly felt that something was not right.

At the right time, he still has to remind the Son of Heaven not to be taken advantage of.

Li Man worked very hard, and in only three days, she put an investigation report on Li Shi's desk.

"The humble duty used more than a thousand subordinates to find out the source of this nursery rhyme in detail, and from the analysis of the summary information, the humble position can conclude that this nursery rhyme was originally sung by a caravan from Hexi, and they did not spread it deliberately, but slowly spread it during their leisure chat, this caravan has returned to Hexi, and the humble post has already flown pigeons to pass the book to Hexi Hall in Liangzhou, so that they can investigate this nursery rhyme in Hexi."

"What about the final conclusion?" Li Shi asked.

"The final conclusion report has not had time to be written, and the humble has just received a carrier pigeon."

After speaking, Li Man handed a roll of pigeon letters to Li Shi, Li Shi slowly unfolded the pigeon letters, and saw a line of words written on it, 'Nursery rhymes are the praise of the people of Hexi to Guo Song, and they are often heard on the streets'.

Li Shi was speechless for a while, the Hidden Sword Pavilion was his loyal eagle dog, of course he would not suspect that the Hidden Sword Pavilion was lying about the military situation, he waved his hand, "You stand down!" ”

Li Man bowed down and slowly retreated, a hint of imperceptible pride flashed in her eyes, she was still the head of the family!

Li Shi was a little upset, pacing back and forth in the imperial study with his hands in his hands, this nursery rhyme turned out to be the praise of Guo Song by the people of Hexi, which made him feel very uncomfortable, the people of Hexi can live and work in peace and contentment, shouldn't the praise be himself?

Also, what is called building a high wall and accumulating grain, what does he Guo Song want to do?

At this time, Huo Xianming, the privy envoy standing aside, said, "Your Majesty, the old slave has some ideas. ”

Li Shi stopped and said, "You say!" ”

Huo Xianming said slowly: "In fact, this nursery rhyme was also heard by the old slave on the street, the old slave felt that it was normal, Hexi should prevent Tubo and Shatuo, of course, it is necessary to build a high wall and accumulate grain, Ganzhou is in Hexi, it is not strange to raise horses and sheep, shaking the world, the king of Ganzhou, it is estimated that it is also a kind of praise for Guo Zhijun's victory over Tubo and Shatuo, these people will not consider what transgression, what they want to say, is what it is." ”

Li Shi nodded, "You have a point. ”

Huo Xianming continued: "But what! Your Majesty should still take precautions. ”

"Anything is afraid of the word 'but', and the praise in front is often a trap, and it is all paving the way for the word 'but' in the back."

"What do you mean?" Li Shi was stunned.

"The old slave thinks that Guo Yuanjun is a young man after all, and the character of young people is not mature enough, and he is often influenced by the outside world, if the people praise him as the king of Ganzhou, over time, he will believe it is true, he will really think that he is the king of Ganzhou, and his ambition will quietly grow, Your Majesty, there are enough feudal towns in the Tang Dynasty, and there must be no more feudal towns in the back of Chang'an."

The last two sentences made up for Li Shi's heart, Li Shi's face suddenly became gloomy, and he was silent, Huo Xianming continued: "The old slave thinks that he should still send the prison army to Hexi, and at the same time ask Guo Song to send his wife and daughter to Chang'an to live, this is the system of the Tang Dynasty, which is also good for him, and it is also a measure to protect him." ”

Li Shi said slowly: "You are right, you must use the system to restrain the border generals. ”

"The old slave recommended Tian Wenxiu as the supervisor of Hexi, he has followed His Majesty for many years and is trustworthy."

Huo Xianming's recommendation is more fair, and he did not recommend his own henchmen, which made Li Shi very satisfied, Huo Xianming's biggest advantage is that he is not selfish, and he thinks about himself wholeheartedly, which is quite a bit of Gaolishi's style.

Li Shi nodded happily and said, "I'll think about it." ”

Huo Xianming retreated, walked out of the Zichen Hall quickly, he found a confidant eunuch, and whispered to him: "You go to the Yuan Mansion and tell the Yuan family master that what he asked me to do, I have done it, and what he promised me should be fulfilled." ”

..........

The people in this world who really understand you are often not relatives and friends, but enemies, just like Yuan Xuanhu knew Guo Song.

Yuan Xuanhu never thought that his political opponent Dugu Qiu was also paying close attention to him.

The relationship between Yuan Xuanhu and Lu Qi is difficult for ordinary people to find, but people with a heart can often see the clues, when Lu Qi's nephew married the daughter of the Yuan family in a low-key manner, Du Isoqiu realized that the Yuan family and Lu Qi had formed an alliance.

Then in the next step, the Yuan family will definitely push Lu Qi to the top.

Sure enough, three months after the marriage of Yuan and Lu, Lu Qi opened fire on Yang Yan, won the nickname of 'Lu Cutting Domain' with a tough attitude, and used the 'Li Xilie Incident' to pick Yang Yan off the horse, so that he successfully ascended to the throne and replaced Yang Yan as the new prime minister.

I have to say that Lu Qi's combination punches are very beautiful, precise and powerful, and the moves are bloody, and they have penetrated the mind of Li Shi, the son of heaven.

Du Gu Qiu knew that Yuan Xuanhu must be behind him to guide Lu Qi and support Lu Qi.

Although the Yuan family has fallen out of favor, it is a century-old family after all, and its strength is still quite strong, especially the financial resources are the first of the Guanlong nobles, of course, the financial resources of the Dugu family are also very strong, but they are slightly inferior to the Yuan family in the accumulation of treasures, and the Yuan family was the lord of the world in the Northern Wei Dynasty.

Just when Du Gu Qiu was figuring out Yuan Xuanhu's next move, a nursery rhyme suddenly appeared in the capital, which spread all over the capital in just three days, and Du Gu Qiu's first reaction was that someone had attacked Guo Song.

If the clouds drift by, it will leave wind and rain, and people will leave traces when they walk, and if no one is promoting it on a large scale, it is impossible to spread it all over Chang'an in three days.

Dugu Qiu also dispatched family forces to secretly investigate the origin of this nursery rhyme.
