The great eunuch Luo Fengxian actually cultivated the power of the feudal town outside, which made Zhao Ziliang quite surprised and angry, and killed a Ju Wenzhen first, and now this Luo Fengxian is also secretly cultivating power, Luo Fengxian is nothing, it is easy for Zhao Ziliang to execute him, but Zhao Ziliang has to consider what Luo Fengxian's adopted son Luo Yuanguang will do, after all, Luo Fengxian is now a military envoy and a general who commands the army outside.

When Zhao Ziliang was still thinking about how to deal with this matter, Gao Shang, Li Mi, Du Fu, Li Muchen and others arrived one after another, and Gao Shang arched his hand and said: "The king, the ministers already know about Luo Fengxian, it is not difficult to kill Luo Fengxian, the key is how to appease Luo Yuanguang!" ”

Luo Yuanguang was originally the military envoy of Zhenguo, and Zhao Ziliang changed the commanders of the army of the DPRK and China to a certain extent according to the actual situation, such as transferring Luo Yuanguang, who was originally the military envoy of Zhenguo, to the military envoy of Shence, and transferring Wei Boyu, the original envoy of the Shence army, to the military envoy of Zhenguo, the purpose of which was to prevent the general from turning the imperial army into his own private army. After this round of adjustment and replacement of commanders and generals, Zhao Ziliang believes that if anyone wants to rebel again, he will definitely not be able to play it.

Zhao Ziliang was quite surprised and puzzled after listening to the noble words, and asked, "This king and the court want to appease him?" Why appease him? Just because his adoptive father cultivated the power of the feudal town, this king should consider his emotions and feelings before making a move on his adoptive father? Is this king a regent or is he a regent? Lord Gao, according to your logic of considering the problem, now that the commanders and generals are all uncles, does this king have to look at their faces before making any decisions? These generals were all appointed by the king, according to your logic, did the king appoint some uncles for himself and the court? Finding Yourself Guilt? ”

"This ······" Gao Shang said, "It's that Weichen cares too much about the forces of these feudal towns, and the king is right, the imperial court can't give these feudal towns a good look, let alone compromise with them!" ”

Zhao Ziliang thought about it for a while, and instructed Wu Yuanguang: "Arrest Luo Yuanguang first, as for Luo Yuanguang, don't think about his feelings, if he can stand the test, this king will still use him, if he can't stand the test, it will be fate!" ”

Wu Yan agreed: "Yes, king!" ”

After Wu Yan left, Zhao Ziliang thought for a long time, and only when it was dark did he send someone to find Xuan Shibai and instruct: "Send someone to secretly see Mu Zihe, the superintendent of the Shence Army, and let him keep an eye on Luo Yuanguang, if there is any abnormal misconduct, arrest Luo Yuanguang first!" ”

"Yes!"

Zhao Ziliang didn't know much about Luo Yuanguang, only knew that this person was a Persian descendant, who came to Chang'an with his father to do business when he was very young, and settled in Chang'an since then. Zhao Ziliang still had some distrust of Luo Yuanguang after all, otherwise he would not have let Xuan Eighteen secretly send someone to see Mu Zihe.

Luo Fengxian was quickly arrested, this old eunuch was still preparing to secretly watch Zhao Ziliang's jokes, in fact, Zhou Zhiguang's rebellion was secretly instructed by Luo Fengxian, the purpose was to sabotage Zhao Ziliang's plan to cut the domain, so as to make Zhao Ziliang's prestige plummet, and prepare for the expulsion of Zhao Ziliang from the court. What Luo Fengxian didn't expect was that someone betrayed him. This made the plan he had already considered worthless.

Following Luo Yuanguang was arrested along with Huo Xianming and Dou Wenchang, the two eunuch pillars, after these three people were arrested, the eunuch party had already existed in name only, and the tree fell and scattered. The leaders and big leaders above the heads were either killed or captured, and the little minions below naturally dispersed in a hurry, and the once feared eunuchs disappeared.

Before Li Shi arrived in Caizhou, Li Sheng's side had already engaged in a battle with the rebellious Zhou Zhiguang's troops, when Zhou Zhiguang's generals were leading troops to attack Weinan City, and when the battle was at its worst, Li Sheng suddenly appeared from the north with soldiers and horses and launched a surprise attack. Some of Zhou Zhiguang's generals were annihilated, and the other part fled to the northeast in panic and joined Zhou Zhiguang, who was leading his troops to attack Lianshu County.

Luo Fengxian really sent someone to inform Zhou Zhiguang, but Zhou Zhiguang received the news too late, and one of his partial divisions was defeated by Li Sheng's sniper, killing and capturing a large number of soldiers, and a small number of soldiers fled back.

Li Sheng's speed of marching was too incredible for Zhou Zhiguang, he was preparing to fight with Li Sheng after receiving the news, Li Sheng took 3,000 people to confront him on the one hand, and on the other hand, he sent his deputy general to take 2,000 people to attack Huazhou, Huazhou is Zhou Zhiguang's lair, Huazhou was captured by Li Sheng's troops, which almost made Zhou Zhiguang a lost dog, but this also stimulated his cruel and cruel nature.

On February 20, Zhou Zhiguang gave up attacking Lian Lao County, and turned to directly engage Li Sheng's department, Li Sheng used the high-speed mobility advantage of the cavalry to deal with Zhou Zhiguang, so that Zhou Zhiguang could not fight, could not reach, and always followed Li Sheng's department to eat fart, so after five days of continuous circulation, Zhou Zhiguang lost his mind and calm, and made a fatal mistake, he divided the army into several units and scattered, planning to surround Li Sheng's department, Li Sheng learned of his deployment from the news brought by the outpost and knew that his opportunity had come, He personally led the cavalry to take advantage of the high-speed maneuver to take various methods to break the scattered Zhou Zhiguang troops, so that Zhou Zhiguang lost most of the soldiers and horses in just eight days, which made him start to be afraid and frightened, and he immediately fled to Tongzhou with the remnants of the defeated army.

On the fifth day of the third month, Li Sheng led the Western Qin army and the troops of the surrounding states and counties, totaling 19,000 people, to slaughter Tongzhou, and at the same time ordered the surrounding states and counties to hold the city and not fight for no reason.

Zhou Zhiguang, who was greatly injured, learned that Li Sheng's troops had been killed so quickly, and that he had gathered such soldiers and horses in such a short period of time, he knew that he could only fight Li Sheng to the death.

On the eighth day of the first month of March, Li Sheng's army besieged Tongzhou, the rebels in Tongzhou lost their fighting spirit, and Zhou Zhiguang was unable to control his subordinate generals, so he was killed by his generals and dedicated his head to Li Sheng.

Li Sheng sent someone to report the victory to Zhao Ziliang and asked about the army's future arrangements.

The news quickly spread to Chang'an, and the government and the opposition suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, this time it was the fastest time to quell the rebellion, and the rebellion of Zhou Zhiguang was pacified in less than a month, and after the Anshi rebellion, the imperial court had never been so proud.

Li Sheng led the army to extinguish Zhou Zhiguang's rebellion in the shortest possible time, giving Zhao Ziliang a big face, Zhao Ziliang was very happy about this, and on the day he received the news, he ordered someone to prepare a table of banquets, and sent people to invite Gao Shang, Li Mi, Du Fu, Li Muchen and others to come over to drink and celebrate.

At the wine table, Zhao Ziliang asked these staff members for their opinions on the next steps of Li Sheng's department: "Li Sheng sent someone to ask, whether he will withdraw to the Baqiao camp or garrison the same place, or go to recruit Li Lingyao, what do you think?" ”

Gao Shang first said: "Great King, the elite of the Western Qin army, there are still 25,000 people in the Baqiao battalion, and these soldiers and horses alone are enough to deter all parts of Guanzhong, and they can also draw some troops to deal with emergencies." Weichen thought that General Li Sheng could lead the army eastward as a backup for the army of the Five Towns to encircle and suppress Li Lingyao! ”

Li Mi took over and said: "King, if General Li Sheng's soldiers and horses are transferred to Shaanzhou, they can also monitor the army of the five towns to encircle and suppress Li Lingyao. If you recidivize, you will be punished severely! ”

Li Muchen and Du Fu also expressed their opinions and suggestions one after another, and the suggestions of these people were similar, the differences were not very obvious, and Zhao Ziliang did not make a decision immediately.

"Wang, I received news before Weichen came, Zhang Shouyu and Gao Xiuyan sent people to report that they have arrived in Yanzhou, and they will be able to arrive in Chang'an in a few days!" Du Fu said to Zhao Ziliang, and after speaking, he asked, "King, what kind of specifications do you want to receive the two of them?" ”

Zhao Ziliang thought for a while, shook his head and said: "Gao Xiuyan and Zhang Shouyu came here after receiving my secret letter, their trip needs to be kept secret, the government and the opposition are not clear that they are coming to Chang'an, and the reception should not be put on the surface, if they are about to come to Chang'an, you will personally take them to the palace to settle down, and wait until the king and the two of them have discussed before making a decision!" ”

Du Fu knew Zhao Ziliang's concerns, although Zhang Shouyu and Gao Xiuyan were both promoted by Zhao Ziliang, but Zhao Ziliang and these two people had not met for more than ten years after all, and they could not estimate their current situation, nor could they judge the loyalty of these two people to test. went up and arched his hand and said, "Are the two of them General Zhang Shouyu and General Gao Xiu?" ”

March 16. Zhang Shouyu and Gao Xiuyan arrived at Cheng'an City with a small number of entourage, Du Fu, who had been waiting here to greet them, immediately took a few personal entourages to greet them, Zhang Shouyu and Gao Xiuyan had only heard of Du Fu's name, but had never seen him, so they didn't know him.

Zhang Shouyu nodded: "Yes, we are Zhang Shouyu and Gao Xiuyan, I don't know who the adults are?" ”

Du Fu arched his hand and said: "Your subordinate Du Fu, the duty is to assist the regent in handling military and political affairs. The king ordered the officials to come to meet the two, because the news of the two coming to Chang'an has not been made public, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, please go to a quiet and safe place with me secretly, the regent has been waiting for the two for a long time! ”

"It turned out to be Lord Du, it's really disrespectful and disrespectful. Since we are going to see the king, then please ask Lord Du to take us over, we have to work! ”

Du Fu said with a smile: "The two county kings don't need to be polite, this is a matter within the official duties!" Xia Guan has already prepared a few carriages, please let the two county kings get on the carriage, even if they meet acquaintances, it doesn't matter, they can't see the two county kings in the carriage."

Then Gao Xiuyan and Zhang Shouyu each got into a carriage, and Du Fu ordered his entourage to drive the carriage to the meeting place.
