6. Unauthorized killing of Liu Dexin

Then Gao Yue saw that Han Yun had sent his brother Han Hui.

Ma Sui's agent is his brother Ma Xuan.

Cui Ning sent it to his youngest son, Cui Li.

Li Baozhen sent it was Jia Lin, a staff member and general.

Li Mian sent it was Yuan Gao, the secretary in charge.

The envoys of other places also sent representatives to deliberate, and all brought gifts to the emperor's line—all kinds of gold and silver treasures—all of which were ordered by Li Shi to be piled up in the cloister under the bell tower, and registered in the book by the eunuch Ma Chengqian.

"Huainan Jiedu envoy Chen Shaoyou, is there any wingman here?" The emperor asked the lieutenant envoy beside him to ask him twice.

But there was no answer in the hall.

Li Shi smiled coldly.

"Does the salt and iron transshipment of foreign, Li, Shang, and Jin states make Liu Yan here?"

There was no answer in the hall.

The emperor was in arrears, and when he was about to pass on the envoy of Xifan, an official came from outside, claiming to be Li Sheng's envoy.

This envoy was Li Sheng's son-in-law Zhang Yu, who, after paying homage to the emperor, presented an additional seal and declared it a capital crime.

Li Sheng first congratulated the emperor, saying that after he arrived at Tongguan, the rebels abandoned Tonghua Erzhou and began to retreat back to Chang'an City, in addition, Li Huaiguang, Li Xilie, Li Zhongchen and Zhu Zhu The four thieves seemed to have begun internal strife, Zhu Zhu set up a curfew to prevent Li Huaiguang from entering according to the imperial city, palace city and Daming Palace in Chang'an, Li Huaiguang was furious, stationed troops in Chengyang, choked Pujindu, and seemed to be preparing to return to the river; And Li Xilie returned to the old city of Xianyang, and did not enter Chang'an City, but according to the West Wei Bridge, he went south to Wugong, Zhouzhi and other counties, and it seems that he was also at both ends of the first rat - Chen Sheng had led the gods to plan the camp and arrived at the East Wei Bridge.

Hearing this, the emperor smiled with relief.

And when the content of Li Sheng's seal was announced in the lobby, all the ministers, including the emperor, turned their faces and were shocked.

In the seal, Li Sheng accused Liu Dexin, the divine envoy who originally commanded the camp, that the army was undisciplined, so he had been beheaded and his battalion was heavy!

"What is Liu Dexin's sin?" The emperor couldn't believe it.

Originally, Shang Kegu, Luo Yuanguang and other gods and generals, the Dugi camp recommended by the public was Liu Dexin.

As a result, the first thing Li Sheng did after leading the Shence Heshuo camp arrived was to kill Liu Dexin.

Why is that?

Zhang Yu announced Liu Dexin's four major crimes to the emperor and all the courtiers in the court:

Most of the children in the camp led by Liu Dexin are outlaws in the market, with no military discipline, and they plunder the ruins along the way at every turn, which is also one of them;

When Liu Dexin led the army through Shayuan and Dali, he stole 500 national horses from the pastoral prison here, and the second was also;

In the past, Liu Dexin fought against the rebels and lost many battles, which is also the third;

Previously, when Liu Dexin came to see Li Sheng, he was unprepared and arrogant.

After listening to these four reasons, the ministers looked at each other even more.

Before the expedition, Li Sheng and Liu Dexin were both soldiers and horses, and they were both hung with the constitutional titles of Zhongcheng in the imperial history, so they should be on an equal footing, what etiquette did Liu Dexin have to prepare when he came to see Li Sheng? Moreover, Liu Dexin took Shayuan's horses, of course, to enhance the team's combat effectiveness, Liu Dexin did not have the news of defeat before, but fought all the way from Tongguan to near Weishui Bridge, which ......

Just as Yan Zhenqing was about to speak, the emperor said leisurely:

"Zi said, what is the body, it is only to be respectful and faithful, respect is far from suffering, respect is loved, loyalty is in harmony with the public, and faith is believed. Liu Dexin violated the commandment of the sages, and he should not be deeply blamed for the king of Hechuan County. ”

"The Holy Lord is wise!" Zhang Yu hurriedly knelt down and shouted thanks.

Then the emperor did not say a word, he gave Li Sheng to inspect the school of the Ministry of Engineering, Gyeonggi Kwantung Shence Camp to unify the envoy, after which the southeast Jianghuai wealth was divided into forty percent along the Cao to Dongwei Bridge, which was handled by Li Sheng with full authority.

After receiving such a satisfactory disposition, Zhang Yu got up and entered the column and sat side by side with the envoys of the other jiedu envoys.

"Martial artists are domineering, how can they be loyal and rebellious." Among the crowd, only Zheng Qi whispered angrily.

Gao Yue and Wei Gao were always unfazed.

At this time, the emperor signaled, and the lieutenant envoy on the rank summoned him:

The Xifan courtiers who were waiting in the Fengtian City Pavilion before, wearing narrow-sleeved dresses, accompanied by Cui Hanheng and Wei Lun, went straight into the hall, and then bowed to the Tang family's son of heaven.

Gao Yue saw that on Ou Cheekzan's arm was a "chapter ornament" of silver and gold, which was similar to the Tang Dynasty's sue body, representing the rank of this in the Western Fan Empire.

Ou Qizan's Chinese is quite fluent, and he announced Zampu's conditions in front of everyone:

hoped to form an alliance with the Tang family and engrave a monument to demarcate the border;

After the alliance was established, Da Lun Shang praised the 20,000 elites who were willing to go out of the Helong land to help the Tang family quell the rebellion;

Since then, Tang Fan has never gone to war and formed an alliance.

"You can say anything about this." The emperor asked the ministers to discuss it.

Sure enough, as Li Shi expected, a fierce dispute broke out in the lobby.

Hanlin bachelor Jiang Gongfu and Lu Zhen advocated borrowing troops, Lu Zhen said that now Hui and Heshuo have an ambiguous attitude, and they cannot be led into Gyeonggi, but Xifan is different, not only can the Xifan soldiers recover Chang'an, but also with their help Pinghezhong, Wuguandao and other places.

In addition, Lu Zhen asked the emperor to issue an edict to appease Heshuo and Ziqing and other towns, pardon them, and let them regain peace.

Wu Tongxuan and Wu Tongwei, who were also among the scholars of Hanlin, strongly opposed the borrowing of troops, saying that Xifan's words were not enough to be accepted, and His Majesty could gather the Quartet's Qinwang army and wealth in Fengtian City to recover the Beijing division by himself.

Among them, Wei Cigong was the Silent faction.

Soon the controversy spread from the Hanlin scholars to the courtiers.

Fan Ze and Liu Congyi echoed the idea of borrowing troops.

And Xiao Fu and Yan Zhenqing strongly opposed the borrowing of troops.

Xiao Xin is a silent faction among them.

So the emperor, who was difficult to balance, asked the envoys of the Jiedu envoys to "vote" (they all brought the attitudes of all sides of the town and camp):

Li Sheng said that he could borrow troops;

Zhang Yanxun said that he could borrow troops;

Ma Sui said that he could borrow troops;

Wu Mian said yes to Wu Mian from Dongchuan Jiedu, and Jia Tan from Shannan Xidao also said yes.

Cui Ning of Lingwu, Li Mian of the Central Plains, and Li Baozhen of Zelu had a neutral attitude and said that everything would be listened to by the imperial court.

Only Han Rong submitted a fierce stamp, saying that he must not borrow troops from Xifan;

In this way, Han Rong is in the minority.

In fact, the previous discussion is all nonsense and procedures, and the key is the idea of the local powerful faction. Since most of the Jiedu envoys agreed to borrow troops from Xifan, Li Shi could not find any reason to oppose it, and he himself wanted to put down this rebellion as soon as possible, so as to return to the capital division, so he opened his mouth to prepare for a conclusion.

Who would have thought that at this time, it was Xiao Xin who spoke: "Your Majesty can wait a while, Jingyuan, Fengxiang Duan Chenggong, Sizhou transfer envoy Liu Shi'an, Suzhou Assassin Du Junqing, Hangzhou Assassin Li Shaoyuan has not yet expressed his position." ”

"Wait?" The emperor was a little unhappy, all of them I had already deduced with Jiang Gongfu and Lu Zhen day and night, wouldn't it be good to settle down early, why delay!

At this time, Gao Yue suddenly got up, then held the wat board in his hand, and said to the emperor after turning right: "The head of the Southern Provincial Officials' Department, Shilang Zhongchen Yue, has a discussion!" ”
