Chapter 234: Plan Ahead
As a veteran of the three dynasties, Li Xin still has a lot of say in the emperor of the Ji family, although because of the short life of the Taikang Emperor, now the elders of the three dynasties in the court have a lot of grabbing, but Li Xin is a close minister of the Son of Heaven, and his understanding of the Taikang Emperor and the Emperor of Yuanzhao is better than the vast majority of people in the court.
The Son of Heaven of Chengde is an unfathomable figure in Li Xinxin, although the emperor is also a little careful about the southwest, but the overall atmosphere is quite atmospheric, but after him, the Son of Taikang, whether it is the pattern vision, or the means, or the decision-making, are much worse than the Chengde Son of Heaven.
This is also the reason why there was a gap between him and Li Xin in the later period.
In the generation of Yuan Zhao Tianzi, he was only fourteen or fifteen years old, and he was still a student of Li Xin, so he didn't trust his teacher very much, and would rather not be pro-government, but also keep the few auxiliary ministers left by the first emperor.
This is not only a problem that makes Li Xin feel cold, but more importantly, it makes Li Xin have some concerns about his future, or the future of the Marquis of Jing'an.
That is what kind of attitude the future Yuan Zhao Tianzi will have towards the Jing'an Hou Mansion.
However, these are all later stories, and the top priority is to solve the problem in the southwest as soon as possible and find out the tiger.
Because of extreme fatigue, Li Xin slept for a long time, and he began to lie in bed in the afternoon to rest, and slept until the next morning, when it was close to noon, before he got up from the bed.
He also felt a little drowsy because he had slept for too long.
There was a special subordinate waiting at his door in the Shu Palace, and when he saw Li Xin wake up, he immediately brought up the hot water for washing, Li Xin washed his face, and just moved his muscles at the door of the house, Mu Ying had already come over and respectfully hugged his fists at Li Xin.
"Master Hou is up."
Li Xin was standing on the fist pile, and after hearing Mu Ying's voice, he immediately retracted his posture, rubbed his shoulders, and smiled at Mu Ying: "What should you be busy with, there is no need to guard me at home." ”
Mu Ying lowered her head and said: "The marks given by Master Hou, the subordinates and others have already found some in Jincheng, I believe that in a few days, there will be some clues, and most of them will be able to find Brother Lin by then." ”
Meihuawei's upper and lower lines are single-line contact, although this contact method is hidden, but it is very inefficient, so Meihuawei will use a lot of imprint transmission, although they will erase the imprint afterwards, but be careful, it will be easy to find.
Li Xin nodded.
"Hard work Brother Mu."
"Don't dare."
Mu Ying took a deep breath, lowered her head and said, "It's not that subordinates and others are derelict in their duties, and Master Hou doesn't have to travel thousands of miles to Jincheng to deal with trouble." ”
Li Xin shook his head.
"You don't need to say these words, just pay attention to them later."
Mu Ying bowed her head and said: "Hou Ye slept for a day and a night, he should be hungry, the house has prepared wine and food, Hou Ye has a meal together?" ”
Li Xin nodded.
"I'm a little hungry."
At this time, it was close to summer, so Mu Ying asked people to set up a table of wine and food under the gazebo, and he and Li Xin sat across the table.
After sitting down, Li Xin asked, "Isn't Brother You'an here?" ”
Mu Ying shook her head and said with a wry smile: "Mr. You'an is in charge of the southwest government affairs, and it is very hard, it is estimated that he is still busy in the government at this time, and I am afraid that he will not be able to come to see the Hou Ye until the sun sets." ”
Li Xin nodded, took a bite of food, and asked while eating: "I heard Uncle Mu say that there were some conflicts between the Hanzhou army and the former army. ”
Mu Qing and Li Xin said this, which somewhat meant to sue Li Shuo, but now it has been proved that it was Mei Blossom Wei's hand and had nothing to do with Li Shuo, so this situation is a little embarrassing.
Mu Ying lowered her head and smiled bitterly: "There are some small problems, most of the old military departments are arrogant, the generals from the Hanzhou army can't suppress them, and many people are clamoring to go to Ningzhou to defect to General Li Shuo, and they often fight with the Hanzhou army." ”
Obviously, because of the gap in the quality of individual soldiers between the two armies, this reorganization forcibly incorporated a stronger army into the relatively inferior Hanzhou Army, which caused an adverse reaction.
Li Xin frowned slightly.
"This is absolutely impossible, tell those who make trouble, either continue to serve as a soldier in Jincheng, or leave the army and go home, it is impossible to re-turn them into the army."
"If you really have the ability, let them make war exploits, and they will not be missing a little bit of official positions."
Just kidding, Li Xin spent a lot of thought at the beginning to dismantle the army into the Hanzhou army, and now Li Shuo occupies Ningzhou, and gradually has enough food and grass, if the previous army goes back to him, then Li Shuo's power will become stronger and stronger, resulting in an imbalance of power in the southwest.
Mu Ying bowed her head slightly: "My subordinates understand." ”
The Marquis of Jing'an buried his head in eating two mouthfuls of food and glanced up at Mu Ying.
"What is Li Shuo's attitude over there?"
Mu Ying smiled bitterly: "Li Shuo Gongzi brought 30,000 people to Ningzhou, and when the old army department here in Jincheng made trouble, I wrote to him, and he said that the army no longer exists, and now there is only the Ningzhou army, and he can't control the affairs here." ”
Marquis Jing'an narrowed his eyes.
"He is right, since the army has been incorporated into the Hanzhou Army, then the army does not exist, he can lead the reorganized army, there is no reason why you can't take it."
"Does Li Shuo know that I came to the southwest?"
Mu Ying lowered her head and said: "After my subordinates received the news a few days ago, they asked people to go to Ningzhou to deliver the letter, and I believe that Ningzhou will receive it soon." ”
Marquis Jing'an picked up his wine glass, toasted Mu Ying, and said slowly: "Brother Mu, this side of the southwest needs to be integrated as soon as possible, and it can't be dragged out like this anymore." ”
"Mu family" was named the king of Shu, it was a matter of the beginning of the ninth year of Taikang, and more than a year has passed now, but there are dozens of continents in the southwest, and there are many people who are not satisfied with this so-called Shu Wangfu, so although the Hanzhou army occupies Jincheng and Jianmen Pass, but the southwest has not yet reached the tight step of the old Han Dynasty to become a country by itself.
Even the point where the Hou Mansion ruled the southwest did not reach that point.
Speaking of this, Li Xin was silent for a while, and said in a deep voice: "The officials of the state capitals must deal with it as soon as possible, and the money and food that fell to the Shu Wangfu are still brainless, and they are killed directly with a knife, and there is no time to influence them little by little." ”
Zhao Jia was sent to the southwest by Li Xin, on the one hand, to help Li Xin look at the southwest, and on the other hand, to integrate the southwest forces and make the southwest one, but Zhao Jia is a scholar after all, and he can't be ruthless, and he still admires the kind of scholar who is very virtuous, so until now, among the dozens of state capitals in the southwest, there are still more than ten state capitals still caring about the imperial court.
Mu Ying's face changed, he put down his chopsticks and looked up at Li Xin.
"Master Hou, ...... you"
Li Xin was hungry, still eating with vegetables, he bit off a piece of chicken leg meat viciously, and said in a muffled voice: "Huzi was arrested, I don't know if he can hold on, if he can't hold on, then at this time, most of the court has already obtained the recipe of Tianlei, we need to prepare early." ”
"Besides, the auxiliary ministers left by the first emperor also look at me unpleasantly, at this time, we must at least have some self-preservation."
Mu Ying's face was solemn, she didn't eat anymore, stood up from the table, and said in a deep voice: "Subordinate, understand what Hou Ye means, my subordinates will do it, and within two months, all the southwestern state capitals will be included in Hou Ye's command!" ”
Marquis Jing'an smiled dumbly.
"I'm not in a hurry to eat first at this moment."
