Chapter 991: Presiding over the Imperial Meeting (4)
Seeing Guo Ziyi talking about Yao's death, Zhao Ziliang was angry, although Lai Yao was not his cronies, but Lai Yao served as his marching Sima and deputy for a long time, Zhao Ziliang still knew him very well, Lai Yao was born in a family of generals, if he was a little arrogant, this did not wronged him, but if he had any objections, he did not believe it if he killed Zhao Ziliang, and before Lai Yao was given death, Lai Yao's father Lai Yao was still alive, and he was in Chang'an, how could he rebel?
Zhao Ziliang said to the ministers: "Lai Yao was ordered by the emperor to die, this king knows, let's put aside whether this matter is right or wrong for the time being, and the courtiers should not comment on the king's mistakes, everything has its own descendants to comment!" But this king wants to know, why did the emperor give death? Guo Ziyi, you say! ”
"This······ That's a long story! Guo Ziyi was a little stumbling, at such an age, his expression was the first time the ministers had seen it, after all, Guo Ziyi's status in the court is now rarely matched, and it is really strange for everyone to see his embarrassed and spitting expression.

Ju Wenzhen was a little uneasy in her heart, lest Zhao Ziliang would implicate him in this matter, after all, he was the one who made trouble behind his back and killed Lai Yao.
Zhao Ziliang patted the table and snorted coldly: "Then you will make a long story short!" You have been commanding the army for many years, can't you even explain what happened clearly? ”
Guo Ziyi was forced to ask by Zhao Ziliang, and had to bite the bullet and said: "In the third year of the Yuan Dynasty, Lai Yao repeatedly led the army to defeat the rebels, and performed his military exploits, and the first emperor ordered Lai Yao to come to Beijing to be rewarded, it is said that Lai Yao hinted that the generals would write to the court to keep him, and the court did receive the letters from his generals, when he came to Dengzhou, the first emperor received the letters from the generals, so he issued an edict here to let Lai Yao return to Xiangyang to guard, but the first emperor soon learned of this trick of Lai Yao, so he didn't like Lai Yao very much·······"
Zhao Ziliang frowned when he heard this, and interrupted: "Why doesn't Lai Yao come to Beijing to receive a reward?" ”
Guo Ziyi hesitated: "This ······ This minister doesn't know, maybe he is willing to stay in Xiangyang, maybe he doesn't want a reward······"
"!" Zhao Ziliang had a straight face, "If it were you, would you be willing to reward or not?" Oh, is he willing to stay in Xiangyang and even the emperor's summons can be excused? Others don't know who Lai Yao is, but this king is clear, if he has some arrogance of the children of the family, this is not wronged him, but if he dares not to obey the edict, this king will definitely not believe it! If you continue to talk about it, this king wants you to be realistic, and if you want to take care of other people's faces and not tell the truth, then this king will be too disappointed in you! ”
Guo Ziyi knows that he is only afraid of offending people today, and he must stand in line at this time, otherwise if he stands on the opposite side of Zhao Ziliang, the consequences are doomed! He had to say truthfully: "The original Huaixi Festival made Wang Zhongsheng jealous of Lai Yao's talent, and the emperor said that Lai Yao bought people's hearts in Xiangyang, and such a person could not stay in office, and he should be transferred." The first emperor thought it was reasonable, so he transferred him to be the assassin of Dengzhou and the envoy of the six states of Shannan Dongdao. And the march of the march Sima Pei Yi and tried to seize the position of the Yao, so to the first emperor to say that the person is brave and strategic, but I am afraid that it is not good to control, if you do it now, you can capture him in one fell swoop, and ask him to lead the army to attack Xiangyang, the first emperor thought that this suggestion was very correct, so he ordered to transfer Lai Yao as the inspection of the school household department Shangshu, concurrently served as the imperial envoy doctor, Anzhou Thorn History, Huaixi fifteen states festival envoy. Later, the first emperor died, when today's son succeeded to the throne, Lai Yao learned that the first emperor transferred him to Huaixi and felt that the court had been suspicious of him, so he said that Huaixi had no grain and grass, and then left after receiving the grain from all over Xiangyang. At that time, Wang Zhongsheng was fighting against the rebels and was besieged in Shenzhou for more than two months. Later, the emperor forgave Lai Yao's sins and appointed Lai Yao as the secretary of the military department and the Pingzhang of the Tongzhong Shumen, and still served as the envoy and observer of Shannan Dongdao. Soon Wang Zhongsheng fled back from the rebels and accused Lai Yao of not saving him in front of the emperor, so His Majesty deprived Lai Yao of his official title······"
"Wait!" Zhao Ziliang interrupted Guo Ziyi, "You said that the emperor listened to Wang Zhongsheng's accusation before issuing an order to do something to Lai Yao?" Wang Zhongsheng is only afraid that he doesn't have such a lot of energy, right? And how much credibility does he have for a defeated general who fled from the rebels? Didn't the emperor and the ministers of the court worry that he had been rebelled against by the rebels, and pretended to flee back to carry out a plot against the ministers and generals of the court? ”
When Ju Wenzhen heard this, her heart jumped to her throat, and she kept looking at Guo Ziyi with her eyes, hoping that he wouldn't recruit him, but how could this matter be hidden? Almost all the ministers present knew about it. Wu Cheng, who had just entrusted Zhao Ziliang with a heavy responsibility, stood up and said to Zhao Ziliang: "Your Highness, as far as the minister knows, during the period when Lai Yao was stationed in Xiangyang, Father-in-law Ju Wenzhen asked Lai Yao to do things for him, but Lai Yao refused, and Ju Wenzhen held a grudge for this, so he said bad things about Lai Yao in front of the emperor, and the emperor ordered that Lai Yao be demoted to the lieutenant of Banchuan County, and he was killed halfway!" ”
Ju Wenzhen was furious, pointed at Wu Zhen and roared: "Wu Zhen, don't spew blood, you mad dog, you really catch whoever bites whom!" ”
Zhao Ziliang knocked on the desk and looked at Ju Wenzhen and said: "Father-in-law Ju, don't be impatient, did you do this matter, as long as this king goes to the inner palace to see His Majesty now, and asks in person, you can get the answer immediately, do you want to go with this king?" ”
Ju Wenzhen's face turned pale suddenly, and he was covered in cold sweat, now it is October, and the weather is starting to get colder, and at this time, sweating profusely makes people know that he is weak and scared.
Ju Wenzhen's eyes flickered, and he looked at the forbidden soldiers outside the door with his eyes, Zhao Ziliang saw his expression, and asked: "Father-in-law Ju, do you want to order the soldiers of the Shence Army to rush in and hack this king to death?" This king joined the army at the age of fifteen, rushed into the Turkic army at the age of seventeen to kill the generals and capture the flag, this year this king is forty-five years old, just in the prime of life! As for the small soldiers of the Shence Army outside the hall, even if 10,000 people come, they don't want to do anything to this king, do you want to give it a try? ”
When Ju Wenzhen heard this, her body immediately trembled, and her strands kept trembling.
There was silence in the hall, and everyone looked at Ju Wenzhen's embarrassed look, this person who had once been in power and opposition, and all the officials of the court had to look at his face and act, was so easily made like this by Zhao Ziliang, and the eyes of the ministers looking at Zhao Ziliang were full of awe for a while.
Zhao Ziliang knew that Ju Wenzhen's psychology had begun to collapse, and he said: "Ju Gonggong, the matter of coming to Yao has become history, and this king does not want to pursue this matter anymore, because once this matter is investigated, it is bound to implicate the emperor. Since this matter is no longer pursued, Father-in-law Ju naturally has nothing to do! Now the imperial court wants to use Liang Chongyi, the subordinate general of Lai Yao, but Liang Chongyi thinks that it is because of you that he let Lai Yao die unjustly, so he does not obey the orders of the imperial court, and he also threatens to avenge Lai Yao, this matter is always because of you, should you come forward to solve it? ”
Ju Wenzhen was relieved to see that Zhao Ziliang promised not to pursue his murder of Lai Yao, but he asked him to come forward to solve Liang Chongyi's matter, so that Liang Chongyi would obey the dispatch, he raised his sleeve and wiped his sweat, and asked, "I don't know what the king wants the miscellaneous family to do?" ”
Zhao Ziliang said: "You have a few choices: first, go to Dengzhou to persuade Liang Chongyi to obey the orders of the imperial court, lead the army south to lift the siege of Xiangyang, and work with Ge Shuyao to quell Li Zhongchen's rebellion!" Second, you lead the Shence army to relieve the siege of Xiangyang, and at the same time deter Liang Chongyi's troops, if he insists on disobeying the orders of the imperial court, he will solve him with Ge Shuyao, and then wave his army east to recover Huaixi! ”
When Ju Wenzhen heard this, she was so anxious that she almost cried, and Lian Lian said to Zhao Ziliang: "King, didn't you push the miscellaneous family into the fire pit?" You also know that Liang Chongyi hates me to the bone, if I go to be a lobbyist, wouldn't it be a meat bun beating a dog and there will be no return? Moreover, the miscellaneous family is a eunuch, and they are not familiar with military affairs, how can the miscellaneous family lead troops to fight? You'd better go around the miscellaneous family, the miscellaneous family is not a lobbyist and a soldier to fight at all! ”
Zhao Ziliang smiled when he heard this, "That's also simple, you hand over the power of the Shence army, and this king will appoint another general to lead the army to lift the siege of Xiangyang!" If you don't dare to go, you can't let others go, right? ”
"Yes, yes, the miscellaneous family handed over the military power, handed it over, uh······" Ju Wenzhen was suddenly stunned, why did she agree to hand over the military power?
The ministers were also dumbfounded, the purpose of daring to love Zhao Ziliang was here!
Zhao Ziliang asked, "What, Father-in-law, don't you want to?" You don't have the courage to convince Liang Chongyi, and you don't know how to lead the army to fight, what's the use of you holding the power of the Shence army? ”
Ju Wenzhen argued: "But the Shence Army is a forbidden army, an army that guards the palace ban and the emperor's safety, how can it be easily transferred?" ”
Zhao Ziliang pointed to the north and said, "You go and ask the emperor to see if he is satisfied with the performance of the Shence Army!" The two rebels entered Chang'an City, what was the use of the Shence Army? The Shence Army made great contributions to the country in the Anshi Rebellion and had a strong combat capability, but since staying in Chang'an for two years, the life in the capital has been comfortable, and the entire army has been completely abolished! Will they still be able to keep the Emperor safe? You can also keep the Shence Army in the palace to be responsible for the emperor's safety, if the emperor's safety goes wrong again, the king will behead your dog! ”
Ju Wenzhen didn't dare to gamble with Zhao Ziliang, he had completely lost the courage and hole cards to fight with Zhao Ziliang, and said with a decadent face: "Okay, since the king wants to let the Shence army go out of the palace to hone and hone the training, the miscellaneous family can only agree, the king can do whatever he wants, and the miscellaneous family will then hand over the transfer of the Shence army!" ”
