Li Cuixian is a little annoyed now, because a person named Li Heng died in her army for no apparent reason.
This Li Heng was once a subordinate of Li Pu and Li Yanguo, and in the Battle of Daqing River more than a year ago, he was suspected of being ordered by Yang Miaozhen, a nun who destroyed the door, to assassinate Chen Dexing on the battlefield. As a result, Yang Po'er saw through it, and later led people to fight with Chen Dexing's personal guards, and fled to Kublai Khan's side after being defeated.
That's how things went, Yang Po'er and Li Cuixian later analyzed it like this. They didn't mean to shield the sect destroyer - in fact, there was no need, the old ladies were in their seventies, how many days would they live? Can Chen Dexing be held accountable endlessly? In fact, the attitude of Li Cuixian and Yang Po'er is the key, as long as they are reliable and don't help the old nun, Chen Dexing will be satisfied.
And Yang Po'er's performance in this regard was almost perfect, and she fought bloodily to protect Chen Dexing that day. Since then, Chen Dexing's trust and love for her have risen to a new level, and he is completely regarded as a confidant.
As for Li Cuixian, although she has no chance to perform, she still has not lost Chen Dexing's favor and trust - after all, her interests and Chen Dexing's interests are completely identical, and her son is Chen Dexing's son. And Li Cuixian has always been shrewd, rational, and good at calculating. With the queen and the queen mother on one side and the princess on the other, how will Li Cuixian choose is not obvious?
This time, she personally went out to win Li Yanguo, and took the risk to fight for Chen Dexing, such a performance is enough to fight 120 points. If there is anything imperfect, it is that it has stolen the limelight from Chen Dexing!
And. As the future queen, Li Cuixian seems to be a little stronger. Say something heartbreaking. If Chen Dexing dies now, Li Cuixian relies on the prestige he has established in the Julu War. There is no need for Chen Dexing's edict at all, and he can listen to the government in the court. Guo Fu'er, Zhao Lin'er, and Chen Huaiqing all have to stand aside.
It can be said that compared with today's Li Cuixian, the former Lu Pheasant and Wu Zetian are nothing.
This Da Ming seems to be a little bit of a small risk for Si Chen.
However, Li Cuixian is not worried that Chen Dexing will suppress and guard against himself because of this, because Chen Dexing has always been extremely confident and does not seem to be a suspicious person.
But this time, Li Heng, the party who assassinated Chen in Daqing River, was poisoned in Li Cuixian's army!
This seems to be Li Cuixian killing people! But why did she stop talking? It is difficult to clear the river to assassinate. Is there anything else that can't be known to Chen Dexing?
If this had happened a few months earlier, it would have been nothing. At that time, Chen Dexing was not the lord of the world, Li Tang still had considerable strength, and Kublai Khan was defeated in the Central Plains. If Li Heng fell into the hands of Li Cuixian at that time, he would definitely be killed by a pot of poisonous wine! Chen Dexing will only praise her, and will not doubt her...... Because at that time, Chen Dexing had no spare strength to pursue the matter of Daqinghe.
But now, Chen Dexing is already the lord of the Central Plains...... This emperor has been the most suspicious since ancient times. Also the most ruthless!
Now, it's like a tiger.
Li Cuixian sighed, she didn't know how to explain Li Heng's death to Chen Dexing, and in the end she could only explain nothing. Let's be honest......
At this time, there were hurried footsteps outside the door, and then Li Xiong's voice came in: "Princess, the army of King Ming has arrived." The people at the head of the city have already seen the banner of the Sun and Moon King! ”
Li Cuixian did not move with the army now, but was under the escort of Li Xiong's Zuowu Guard. Stationed in Xianzhou, Hejian Province, to wait for Chen Dexing's main army.
As for the main forces of the Ming and Tang coalition forces. It was commanded by Wang Lufei and continued to follow the Mongol army north. It's not about fighting them, it's just a "gift out of the country".
"Good!" Li Cuixian has put away the hidden worries in her heart, Li Heng's death is at most a thorn in Chen Dexing's heart. But Chen Dexing is also quite a city person, and now when he hears this, he just laughs at it.
With Li Cuixian's merits in the Battle of the Giant Deer, she doesn't have to worry about her status now, Queen Daming belongs to her!
"Let's go out and greet us!"
Li Cuixian stood up from behind the desk and tidied up the Taoist clothes on her body - she was so well-behaved and obedient, of course she was a Heavenly Dao disciple, and she also asked someone to make a Taoist costume for herself. Usually when I go out of the palace, I wear Taoist clothes.
Several of the maids who followed her had already opened the door for her. Li Cuixian took the horizontal sword from one of the maids and hung it on his belt - Chen Dexing advocated force and encouraged the people to wear swords and swords, and his harem concubines naturally took the lead. Including Guo Fu'er, everyone has their own saber. However, at this time, the women's clothing of the Ming Palace was still Song-style, and there was no way to wear a sword, so she could only wear a sword when wearing a sword.
And Li Cuixian's horizontal knife is not a shelf product, the appearance is simple and unpretentious, and there are grinding marks on the handle, which is obviously a real guy who is often used!
"Princess! King Ming is already 20 miles away! Li Xiong stood outside the door, dressed neatly, all dressed as military generals, and bowed to Li Cuixian. His face was slightly ugly, naturally for Li Heng's death.
"Don't worry!" Li Cuixian pressed the hilt of the knife with one hand and strode out, "What kind of wise king is King Ming?" Don't count such trivial things. ”
Li Xiong quickly followed, and said in a low voice: "Princess, it's better not to raise ministers to garrison Yanjing, lest King Ming be suspicious......"
Li Cuixian smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry, King Ming will definitely make you the governor of Yanjing Mansion." ”
The adjustment of the command system of the Ming army has long been planned. Military-level governor's offices will be set up in various parts of the Ming Dynasty as local military defense management institutions at the same level as the military. Responsible for local defense, managing the soldiers in the township, and providing daily logistics support for the field troops - this move actually relieved the most elite field armies of the Ming Dynasty of the power to manage logistics and the soldiers in the township on their own, and also contacted their responsibility to guard the locality. The management of the Ming army is closer to that of the modern army.
Among all the governors, the most important ones are undoubtedly the two governors of Yanjing and Mingdu. Giving the governor of Yanjing to Li Xiong was the best way to appease Li Pu's old subordinates, who had returned to the Ming Dynasty.
Li Cuixian has already thought about this matter for Chen Dexing - if this woman has any shortcomings, she is too smart and calculating.
In fact, this is not a shortcoming, if Chen Dexing is not a king, how can it not be fortunate to have such a shrewd and capable virtuous helper?
But the king ...... I usually like people around me to be stupid!
……
"King, Li Heng's house, the death is indeed strange......"
At the same time, Liu Yang, the head of the secret service, had already arrived in Chen Dexing's army, and first reported to Chen Dexing about the victory of Julu with joy. also said a basket of good things to Li Cuixian - they are all truth-seeking, and people's performances can indeed go down in history.
In the end, he had to report the news of Li Heng's death.
"Kublai Khan did it!"
Chen Dexing waved his hand indifferently and said with a smile: "This old opponent of the Lone King will not let go of any opportunity to stumble on the Lone King." ”
These words were light, and Liu Yang breathed a sigh. The emperor and queen turned against each other, which is a headache in any dynasty, not to mention that Li Cuixian is still a "virtuous queen".
"What's wrong?" Chen Dexing saw that Liu Yang's face was a little abnormal, so he asked. "Liu Yang, what are you...... Could it be that the princess is worried about Li Heng's death? ”
"This ......," Liu Yang nodded with a wry smile.
"What's she worried about?" Chen Dexing was stunned for a moment, "King Gu won't meet Li Heng at all, and he won't send someone to interrogate...... Even if that guy doesn't die, the Lone King will also order him to be executed immediately! ”
"My lord, don't you think the princess should be worried?"
Zhao Fu, who was walking beside Chen Dexing on horseback, suddenly interjected, and he smiled: "The princess is highly meritorious and dignified, and she has the help of the Li family's relatives. ”
This is really not what a foreign minister should say. However, when Zhao Fu has been by Chen Dexing's side for a long time, he knows that this person likes to uncover things and explain them clearly - many things, spread out and say that there is nothing, hide and suspect each other, but it is easy to cause trouble.
Chen Dexing sneered, looked back at Zhao Fu, and said with a wry smile: "This is the consequence of the collapse of etiquette...... Xian'er is the concubine of King Lone, she is smart and capable, and King Gu only has benefits, no harm. She can pull some of the Li family's people over, which is only good for Daming, and there is no harm in it. If it weren't for her this time, we would have won so easily? With such a concubine, why should the lonely king be suspicious? It's not because we have broken the rules in Huaxia for thousands of years. ”
He sighed softly and said, "Cuixian is not only beautiful, but also able to give birth, run a family, and be prosperous. Such a wife, if it is an ordinary family, it is too late to like it. But when she arrived at the emperor's house, she thought she was too capable and too smart! Is that so? ”
Zhao Fu nodded.
Chen Dexing snorted coldly: "The concubine must be stupid, the civil officials must be stupid, the military generals must be stupid, and the princes had better pretend to be stupid and stunned, except for a pure filial piety, nothing else knows...... So that the emperor can be at ease? ”
Zhao Fu smiled bitterly: "Is the etiquette broken...... Stupid people are reliable! ”
Because the rules are broken, the biggest threat to the imperial power comes from the emperor's side. That's why the emperor likes fools...... And dumbas, of course, like who are dumber than them. As a result, in several feudal dynasties in ancient China, there were rules of the game for selecting high-IQ fools to be officials - you have to fool high-IQ people into fools, and then you can become officials!
So when imperialism came to fight, even a figure like Lin Zexu (who was a junior at a young age, with an IQ of at least 160) thought that a foreigner's knees would not bend, and he would not be able to get up after a fall - he couldn't find a foreigner to put down, and then see if someone could get up? (To be continued......)
