Chapter 109: Figured it out
In the palace of King Wei.
The Seventh Prince, Ji Wen and Li Xin, sat across the table, His Royal Highness the Prince held the holy decree handed over by Li Xin in his hand, squinted his eyes and read the holy decree seriously, and after a long time, he rolled up the holy decree again and handed it back to Li Xin.
Li Xin put the holy decree into his sleeve and said softly: "Your Highness, this holy decree came very suddenly, without the slightest warning in advance, and there is the position of the military envoy, I don't really understand what His Majesty wants me to do, so I want to come and ask Your Highness for advice." ”
Li Xin has been in this world for a while, and during this time, he has a general understanding of the capital through the intelligence of the Deyi Building, but a position like the military envoy involves some trivial knowledge, and Li Xin is still not very clear.
His Royal Highness King Wei reached out and picked up the teapot on the table, poured a cup of tea for Li Xin, and said slowly: "This prison envoy is a position with no grade... In the past, it was sent by the Imperial Historical Observatory to do it, and the main duty was to follow the army, along the way to record the situation, and after the army was victorious and the class returned to the court, the records of the supervising military envoys would be sent directly to the palace and handed over to the Son of Heaven to read. ”
Listening to the words of the Seventh Prince, Li Xin vaguely had a concept in his confidence.
This position is probably equivalent to a war correspondent plus a prosecutor...?
After a pause, the Seventh Prince glanced at Li Xin deeply and continued: "But this was a long time ago, and the Great Jin Dynasty abolished the position of supervising the military envoy since Emperor Wu. ”
The Wu Emperor of the Great Jin Dynasty is the emperor who led the Great Jin Dynasty to dominate the world thirty years ago, that is, the grandfather of the Seventh Emperor Ji Wen and the father of the Son of Chengde.
At that time, Emperor Wu of the Great Jin Dynasty, in order to improve the combat effectiveness of the army, wantonly delegated power to the generals, and canceled the positions of supervising the army and supervising the army.
With these fierce generals, the Great Jin was able to sweep the world thirty years ago.
However, there are pros and cons in everything, and for this reason, Li Zhijie, Marquis of Pingnan, had the opportunity to secretly run a small world in southern Xinjiang under the nose of Emperor Wu, leaving such a family business to the Marquis of Pingnan.
The Seventh Prince's tone was complicated: "At the beginning, Emperor Wu and the generals under his command promised to achieve great things together and never doubt each other, so they abolished the supervising army and supervising the military envoys, and let the great ones play their own role, and since then for more than 30 years, the imperial court has always respected the will of Emperor Wu, and has never set up positions such as supervising the army and supervising the army. ”
As a royal family, it is not as easy as ordinary people seem, the princes of the royal family of the Ji family have been studying in the palace since they were five years old, and the history of the Great Jin Dynasty is a "compulsory course", and the gentlemen will also conduct regular spot checks, so the seven princes can treasure these old things.
His Royal Highness King Wei lowered his head and took a sip of tea, and sighed faintly.
"My father's re-establishment of the military envoy is to give up the promise left by the emperor's ancestors, but even if he wants to set up a military envoy, he should select talents from the imperial history platform to ......"
Speaking of this, he frowned: "But my father chose you to go, there must be a deep meaning in it." ”
Li Xin bowed his head and said: "Gonggong Chen said, I am not alone to be the military envoy, there are some people who accompany me, I think those people are the people of Yushitai." ”
His Royal Highness King Wei bowed his head and said in a deep voice: "The holy will has come out, and Brother Xin will definitely go to this trip to Southern Xinjiang, but Brother Xin'er, you and Li Shen have become like this, and you have to get involved...... In the midst of the contradictions between the two of them, this trip is quite dangerous......"
He wanted to talk about the contradiction between the Chengde Emperor and Li Shen, but this contradiction has not yet been clarified in the court, and the Seventh Prince is cautious by nature and did not say it directly.
Li Xin bowed his head and said: "Danger is danger, but Li Shen shouldn't do anything to me on the surface, what should be worried is those remnants of Nanshu in Southern Xinjiang, if I kill their little highness, most of them will seek revenge on me." ”
His Royal Highness the King of Wei shook his head: "The envoy of the prison army is not a person in the army, he does not have to listen to the command of the main general, let alone charge into battle, Brother Xin'er only needs to hide in the army at that time, and those Li Rebellion will not be able to rush into the army formation of Pingnan to take revenge." ”
Li Xin smiled and said meaningfully: "That's not necessarily. ”
What is the relationship between those remnants of Nanshu in Southern Xinjiang and the Pingnan Hou Mansion, or what is the point between them, no one can say now, in case they have already worn a pair of pants, it is really possible to swagger into the Pingnan Army camp, kill him and leave.
"It's not as bad as you think."
His Royal Highness King Wei said in a low voice: "This time, you are not the only one to be the envoy of the supervising army, there are people from the Imperial Historical Observatory, and the Pingnan Army will always be afraid of doing things, and Li Shen is a person who is cautious and will not do such a bold thing." ”
"Besides...... Father, he definitely doesn't want anything to happen to you, and most of them will send some people to protect you. ”
Hearing the analysis of the Seventh Prince, Li Xinxin settled down a lot, he took a sip of the teacup, and said softly: "With His Royal Highness's understanding of His Majesty, His Majesty asked me to go to Southern Xinjiang this time, what is the purpose?" ”
His Royal Highness King Wei hesitated for a moment, but finally spoke slowly.
"Most of the time it's for you to take a look at what the situation is in southern Xinjiang, and find out by the way...... Where are the flaws in the Pingnan Hou Mansion. ”
Speaking of this, His Royal Highness the King of Wei lowered his voice: "Except for you, others can't find the flaws in the Pingnan Marquis Mansion, or in other words, even if they find it, there is no way to leave Southern Xinjiang alive." ”
Li Xin's face changed slightly: "Then I'm not going to die and have no life?" ”
"Not to ......"
Ji Wen stretched out his hand and patted Li Xin's shoulder, and said softly: "Whether you find it, or you don't find the flaws in the Pingnan Hou Mansion, you can't say it on the bright side, after you come back from southern Xinjiang, most of your father won't ask you about it, his old man should mean that you should go to southern Xinjiang first to have a look......"
Speaking of this, Ji Wen took a deep breath, and then lowered his voice.
"I'm going to prepare for the future."
At this time, Li Xin wanted to completely understand why the Chengde Heavenly Son took such a fancy to him.
This Son of Heaven wants to use himself to deal with the Pingnan Hou Mansion.
And the reward after the deed is done...... It's the Nine Princesses.
If things don't work out, then it's nothing more than taking his own life, and the Son of Heaven is still on the surface with the monarchs and ministers of the Nanhou Mansion.
He has nothing to lose.
If it happens, it will be a good deal for a princess to exchange for a southern Xinjiang.
Li Xin lowered his head slightly, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
This is actually not entirely a bad thing for Li Xin, the Son of Heaven of Chengde wants to use him to break the situation in Southern Xinjiang, and Li Xin also wants to use the Son of Heaven of Chengde to fight against the Marquis of Pingnan.
The two of them have a common enemy.
It's a fair bet of mutual use.
Thinking of this, Li Xin looked up at His Royal Highness the King of Wei in front of him, and silently calculated in his heart.
Moreover, he may not be completely controlled by the Chengde Emperor...
When Li Xin was looking down to think about this matter, the Seventh Prince poured him another cup of tea, and his voice was solemn.
"Brother Xin, you remember, after arriving in Southern Xinjiang, try not to anger Li Shen, let alone try to contact the people of the Li family in Southern Xinjiang, this is not something that can be solved in a hurry, you have to figure it out slowly."
His Royal Highness King Wei looked directly at Li Xin and his tone was sincere.
"It's important to be alive."
