Chapter 880: Food is the sky
The news that the lord of Yi'an County chased her husband in the rain and that Zuihou had developed into a thousand cavalry and fought a vicious battle with Jin Wuwei soon became a household name under the enthusiastic spread of the people of Luoyang, and the royal dignity was gone.
Wu Zetian and Li Xian, the king of Luling, were also frightened by the fierce behavior of the county lord of Yi'an, and after being stunned, they were "furious", the royal family wants to be faced, and the royal daughters are not easy to marry, and this time the reputation is even more stinky, so who will the royal women marry in the future?
The big families were originally disdainful of the princess, and the promising scholars and literati stayed away from the princess, but circled around those noble families like flies chasing stinky flies. All of this has long made the royal family not a taste, but as a result, those royal princesses are not worried, just the private and unclean secretly, and now they are openly beating their husbands, the royal family should be an example for the world, isn't this the laughing stock of the world?
Wu Zetian almost drew up the disposal measures before Pei Junma's complaint of snot and tears ended: the county lord of Yi'an was demoted to the county lord of Yi'an, and the regulations and honor guards were all lowered to an equal pole.
Wu Zetian also selected three female officials for her from the palace, one to teach the "Female Commandment" written by Ban Jieyu, the other to lecture on the "Female Rules" written by the Empress Changsun of the Tang Dynasty, and the other to teach the "Inner Track Strategy" written by Emperor Zetian of this dynasty, vowing to teach her to be a good wife and mother, so as not to embarrass the royal family again.
As for the private storage of the outer room of the county horse Pei Xun, this was also a fault, so he was punished together, demoted from the capital, and appointed as the assassin of Yanzhou. In fact, this is a kind of compensation for his bright descent and dark ascension.
After the lord of Pei County and Mashan, he added officials from Wupinsan Dynasty to doctors, and he had no real power, and his official position was not high. And the scenery of Nayun Prefecture is beautiful. The products are abundant, and Pei Junma will return to the capital sooner or later, so it is a real reward.
On the same day, there was also a Wei Junma who was beaten, and the end was worse than Pei Junma, both buttocks were broken, carried home, and the Xinping County Lord, who had just become married and was like glue to her husband, was so distressed that tears rolled down, and she couldn't help but run to the palace to see her father and mother, and sued Yang Fan fiercely.
The most eye-catching thing that day was the county lord's beating husband, Yang Fan and Wei Jie, who had not reported the identity of the county horse, were ignored by the people. It didn't spread among the people. Now let Li Dan take the initiative to go to the imperial front to explain the matter? Haven't they lost enough ugliness in their family? Li Xiangang was scolded by his mother, and he didn't dare to find bad luck, so he had to scold his daughter and ask her to restrain her husband and get too close to Wu Yizong. Don't provoke Yang Fan.
Wu Yizong heard that Wei Jie had been beaten, so he came to visit. Lieutenant Guo Yi has a lot of official positions among his subordinates. has the identity of a county horse, so it has to be interesting. When Wei Jie saw the general, he immediately cried, and added fuel and vinegar that he had mentioned General Wu, but Yang Fan didn't give face at all.
Wu Yizong gritted his teeth and listened, only so angry that one Buddha was born and two Buddhas ascended to heaven. I couldn't wait to find Yang Fan's bad luck immediately, but Chongying was close to mutiny, and he didn't dare. And although the thousand horses were on duty in Beijing, they were in the palace. His shili range was outside the palace city, and he didn't dare to break into the palace to fight, so he had to endure it for the time being.
Pei Junma heard that he was blessed by misfortune, not only could he leave the tigress, but also go to the local emperor to be the emperor, he couldn't help but be overjoyed, and immediately went to Yang Fan to thank him. He hadn't forgotten that if it weren't for Yang Fan's help, he wouldn't have remembered to sue the royal court, and even if he remembered it, he wouldn't have been able to enter the palace, so he wouldn't have been able to cry and worship, right?
The matter is really going to be too big, the royal dignity is gone, although the emperor will still repair the county lord of Nghe An, but he does not want to have such a good errand. Pei Junma gave a generous gift and rushed to Yang's mansion, and when he inquired, Yang Fan had already returned to the camp of the thousand horsemen. Pei Jun stacked the gifts, and personally went to the Qianqi camp in the north of the city, and he was sure to thank Yang Fan in person, which can be described as full of sincerity.
In the thousand-horse battalion, the soldiers were doing daily drills on the school ground, shouting and killing in unison. Yang Fan walked slowly along the verdant path at the foot of the mountain, and there was only Ren Wei next to him, whispering something to him. Yang Fan asked, "It's been more than a month, and you haven't gotten their handle yet?" ”
Ren Wei said: "Don't hide it from the sect master, since the two sects broke up, the two sides began to hide their liliang. Jiang Gongzi went to Luoyang from Chang'an, hoping to make a comeback here, but because of the fall of the three gods of Hanoi Laoni, Shifang Dao and Hu Ren Mole, his Liliang was wiped out, and the two sects of Xianyin learned a lesson.
Since then, the identities of the officials who have been supported and bought by the two sects of Xianyin and the officials who have not been exposed before are only held by the most core figures in the sect, and others have no chance to know. Several officials who used to belong to the other side have collapsed one after another in several battles, and now it is difficult to confirm who is their person if they want to control the other side. ”
Ren Wei sighed and said, "As for the Yin Sect's handle in other aspects, Shen Mu has returned to the Central Plains for more than a year, and he is afraid that he will fill all the loopholes that can be filled. So far, we haven't found anything to attack. ”
After Ren Wei finished speaking, he was afraid that Yang Fan would not believe it, and said: "This matter is related to the future status of my Xianzong, although there are several elders in the sect who are a little dissatisfied with the sect master's arbitrariness, but they will never drag the sect master back in this matter, they said that they did not find the other party's handle, it should be the truth!" ”
Yang Fan nodded, slowly followed his steps, and asked again: "What does 'Tianshu' suggest?" ”
Ren Wei said: "They think that instead of casting a wide net and investigating aimlessly, which is time-consuming and laborious, and they have little to gain, it is better to focus on one point." ”
"Which point?"
"Food!"
"Why?"
"Food is the most fundamental thing in the imperial court, and it is also an important means for me to inherit the throne and influence the imperial court. Once the scale is large, it is difficult to do it without revealing a drop of water, so starting from this aspect, there should be some gains. In addition, Shen Mu and Jiang Gongzi used to compete with food, and then he was sent to Silla ......"
Before he could finish speaking, Yang Fan smiled. He had already secretly sent people out of Beijing, and the purpose was also food. However, he didn't think of the first reason that "Tianshu" thought of, and the reason why he set his goal on food was because he thought of the second reason.
Two years ago, in the first battle of Chang'an, the two sides used food as weapons.
In that vicious battle, it stands to reason that Xianzong has an advantage, and his strength is much stronger than that of Yinzong, but because Jiang Gongzi is not loyal and stubborn. And the "Succession Hall" was established by him, and he had the full support of the Lu family behind him, so no one had anything to do with him, so he fell for Shen Mu's plan and was defeated.
But he killed a thousand, and he inflicted eight hundred. To defeat Jiang Gongzi, Shen Mu's losses must not be small, after which Shen Mu was sent to Silla, and he did not have time to make up for the losses caused in the process of using grain for the war.
Although Shen Mu quietly returned to Chang'an last year, when he returned to the Central Plains. It happened that the Khitan rebellion, followed by the Turkic invasion. For this reason, hundreds of thousands of troops of the imperial court opened up the north and requisitioned a large amount of grain and grass from all over the country, and the Guanzhong granary was the main requisition area.
The war in the north continued until last winter, that is. During this period, in such a large environment. Shen Mu had no way to make up for the problems that arose in the grain one by one. The only thing Shen Mu could do. It is when there is a large surplus of grain in the autumn harvest this year.
And now it is summer, it is still early before the autumn harvest, and Shen Mu can't conjure up a bunch of grain out of thin air, so starting from this aspect should be the most correct direction. The reason why Yang Fan was pleased was because of the suggestion from "Tianshu". He was sure that the heir hall was now of the same mind as himself.
When the new emperor ascended the throne, the military power was scattered and the throne was unstable, and the most common and effective method was to bring disaster to the outside through an external war with the entire interest group. Integrate internally, build prestige, comb relationships, and grasp military power. He is the suzerain of Xianzong, and this method is also applicable.
As long as they are forced by external crises, obey their own dispatch and arrangements, and plan for themselves wholeheartedly, when the external crises are resolved, their internal authority will be established. During this period, if someone provokes and makes trouble, he can also take advantage of the opportunity of most people to obey him in the overall situation, and easily kick the opponent away with the least resistance and replace him with his own people.
"Good! It's a good idea, so let's start with that. Yang Fan high-fived and admired, he naturally didn't need to say the news that he had already sent someone to do it, so that the people of the "Succession Hall" found that it was not a smart practice to not trust them enough for a while.
Ren Wei said: "But there is another point, our Xianzong has also used a lot of food, if you want to make a fuss from this point, how to prevent the fire from being drawn to ourselves, this is a problem. ”
Yang Fan frowned and asked, "What is our gap?" ”
Ren Wei said: "It's not a lot, after all, the grain has always been in our hands, although the Yin Sect has long begun to secretly meddle in the grain storage, but they want to avoid our eyes and ears, and they don't dare to act too much." Most of the grain they get goes to the Uzile who they support, so they use much more storage than we do. Just in case, we still need to pick ourselves out first, and we can't launch a counterattack before that, so as not to force them to jump over the wall and try to die with us! ”
Yang Fan nodded and said, "Okay!" Let the 'Tianshu' draw up a detailed jihua, filling in our loopholes while looking for their loopholes. Whoever wins the first move will be able to determine the outcome of this war! ”
"Yes!" Ren Wei solemnly agreed, turned around and walked away quickly.
Yang Fan paced to the front slope and looked up at the sky, the refreshment of yesterday's heavy rain had gradually been dispelled by the sun in the sky, and the earth was stuffy again. Yang Fan was about to rush back to the tent before the power of the sun was fully in play, when a junior colonel came from afar and said loudly: "General Zhonglang, there is a Pei horse outside the gate who asks to see the general!" ”
Yang Fan was stunned and said strangely: "Pei Yuma!" What is he here for? ”
The little colonel said: "Listen to him talk to himself, saying that it is thanks to the help of the general, and now he has to be released by the imperial court as the assassin of Dunzhou, and he is here to thank him!" ”
"Dunzhou?"
Yang Fan's eyes suddenly lit up, Yanzhou is a big grain-producing state in the Guanzhong Prefectures, and the ancient girl went there, if the assassin history there can give him convenience, wouldn't it be more certain to deal with the Yin Sect?
Yang Fan glanced at the sun that was gradually emitting blazing light, and smiled and said to himself: "Even God is helping me, Brother Shen, what are you fighting with me?" ”
