Chapter 232 Going further and further on the wrong path
"Your Highness, something is not good!" In the Eastern Palace, Li Jiancheng just picked up the bowl when he heard Wei Ting anxiously say, "Your Highness, something is not good!"
"What's the matter!" Li Jiancheng slowly put down his bowl and looked at Wei Ting and said, "Sit down and say slowly!"
Wei Ting said: "Just just now, the disciple received news that the imperial guards in front of the King of Wu were killed thirty-seven people, and the King of Wu has been taken to the palace!"
Li Jiancheng frowned and said, "Du Fuwei wants to escape from Chang'an?"
The imperial guards in front of the gate of King Du Fuwei of Wu was nominally protecting Du Fuwei, but everyone knew that this existed in order to monitor Du Fuwei. If you want to return to Jianghuai, you must first step to get rid of these imperial guards.
Wei Ting pondered: "It's unknown yet!"
Li Jiancheng said thoughtfully: "I'm afraid it's not, but I'm guessing it again by Xuan Cheng!"
Wei Ting said in surprise: "What did Wei Xima say?"
"Xuancheng said Du Fuwei was in danger!" Li Jiancheng smiled bitterly and said, "Xuancheng asked this palace to try to save Du Fuwei's life!"
Wei Ting thought for a while and said, "Your Highness, it is naturally excellent if you can save Du Fuwei's life. The premise is not to anger Your Majesty. If you have a good friend to Du Fuwei, and the East Palace will help you tens of thousands of Jianghuai troops under Du Fuwei, you will definitely be like a tiger with wings and will be invincible!"
Li Jiancheng stood up, put on a cloak, walked out of the hall, turned around and rushed towards Wei Ting, "Prepare for the car, I will enter the palace!"
Wei Ting was about to advise Li Jiancheng not to act irritably, but saw Wei Zheng jogging over in disheveled clothes. Wei Zheng was a person who paid great attention to appearance. Usually, he was like a person outside the world. It was very rare to be as hasty as Wei Zheng.
Wei Ting stepped forward to greet him, "Wei Xima, why are you so panicked? Is it because of the King of Wu?"
Wei Zheng nodded and said, "Your Highness, hurry up and enter the palace. If you are late, you will be troublesome..."
Wei Ting, Li Jiancheng and Wei Zheng boarded Li Jiancheng's carriage, and the three of them sat in the same carriage.
Wei Zheng gasped and said, "Your Highness, you just got the news that Du Fuwei's adopted sons, led by Kan Ling, have secretly headed north. It is probably for Du Fuwei!"
Li Jiancheng laughed in silence and said, "Xuancheng, you are too anxious. Although the Yuan Cong Guard was killed outside the Palace of the King of Wu, this does not necessarily mean that it was done by the King of Wu. I am afraid that people with ulterior motives will use this matter to make a fuss!"
Wei Zheng sighed and said, "Your Highness...you think so, but..."
Wei Ting felt nervous and asked quickly: "But what?"
"But will Your Majesty think this way?" Wei Zheng smiled bitterly: "The generals of the Jianghuai Army had just beaten Changsun Wuji, which made His Majesty Long Yan angry. Now thirty-seven Yuan Cong Imperial Guards died outside his door. Even if Du Fuwei was really wronged, His Majesty would arrest Du Fuwei for the trial of the Three Sessions for the sake of the Tang Dynasty. With Du Fuwei's personality, he could swallow this tone? Even if Du Fuwei could swallow it, could the Jianghuai generals and others be able to swallow it?"
Li Jiancheng was speechless.
Li Yuan loves face, and this is nothing wrong. Even if Changsun Wuji's attitude in front of Fu Gongyou, he is still the envoy of the court, representing the face of the court. Fu Gongyou beat Changsun Wuji, which was to wipe out Li Yuan's face.
Whether for public or private, Li Yuan must deal with Du Fuwei.
This time, the Yuan Cong Guard of the imperial court died outside the palace of the King of Wu, and Du Fuwei could not escape any connection.
Li Jiancheng hurried to Wude Hall, but when Li Jiancheng had just walked to Chengtianmen Square, he heard Li Yuan roaring in Wude Hall.
Li Jiancheng rushed into the hall in three steps in two steps.
In the Wude Hall of Tai Chi Palace in Chang'an, Li Yuan was angry and roaring, and shouted at the kneeling Du Fuwei scolded angrily: "This is the surrender of the Jianghuai Army? This is what you call surrender? Just after fighting my envoy, I immediately killed my Yuancong Imperial Guard? Where is the Tang Dynasty treating you Jianghuai Army? Do you think I am a three-year-old child? Just fight and kill if you say you say you want?"
Du Fuwei slowly took off his crown and placed it on the ground in front of him and said, "My minister, Du Fuwei - unjust!"
"Unforgive?" Hearing Du Fuwei's quibbling, Li Yuan's voice suddenly raised octaves and said coldly: "What's the matter with those Yuan Cong Imperial Guards?"
Li Yuanji left the line, fearing that the world would not be in chaos: "Your Majesty, Du Fuwei is an unjust minister. He repeatedly planned to return to Danyang. Now, Fu Gongyu refused to accept the envoys from the court. His rebellion was already obvious. Du Fuwei assassinated the Yuan Cong Imperial Guard this time, intending to return to Danyang, and his rebellion was unforgivable."
Li Shimin quickly left the list.
Before Li Shimin could speak, Li Jiancheng said: "Your Majesty, there may be something else in this matter!"
As he said that, Li Jiancheng whispered softly in Li Yuan's ear. Li Yuan was stunned when he heard this and said in a lost voice: "Is it true?"
Li Jiancheng nodded. Li Yuan was furious.
Li Yuan said: "Come here, put Du Fuwei in prison and arrest him, and put the North Gate Guard... blocked the Prince of Wu's Mansion."
Du Fuwei was a little surprised. He thought his sworn brother Li Shimin would come forward to protect him. He did not expect that the person who came forward was Li Jiancheng. No wonder Li Jiancheng was generous. He was not generous. He was simply a kind-hearted person.
...
Wang Shiguo rode his horse to the courtyard of Jiangling Inn. Before he could dismount, he shouted to the guards: "Close the door quickly!"
Everyone rushed out of the house.
Kan Ling looked at Wang Shiguo and said, "What happened to Shiguo's nephew?"
Wang Shiguo said: "The Lord has been imprisoned. Now, Yuan Cong's Imperial Guard is ordering to come to the King of Wu's Mansion to arrest his accomplices."
Kan Ling walked towards the martial arts field.
Wang Shiguo said anxiously: "Uncle Kan, what are you doing?"
Kan Ling said: "I will find a few good guys at first."
Wang Shiguo also reacted: "Why are you still standing there? Brothers quickly gather and send all the armor and weapons. Kill the Heavenly Prison and save the King of Wu!"
Everyone became busy.
At this moment, a graceful and graceful genius in her sleeve appeared at the door, looked at everyone, and shouted loudly: "Everyone stop! Move all the weapons and armor back."
Everyone looked at each other.
Kan Ling held the modao and shouted at the scribe in the blue-clothed sect: "Who are you bird man? You dare to care about your little things!"
The Qing-clad scholar said lightly: "Wei Zheng from Shandong!"
When Kan Ling heard this name, she was furious: "Yeah, tear you up!"
As he said that, Kan Ling raised the Mo sword and slashed Wei Zheng's head.
Wei Zheng did not dodge or avoid, and said without changing his expression: "If General Kan wants His Highness the King of Wu to die, just take action!"
Mo Dao was less than one foot away from Wei Zheng's head. Kan Ling stopped in time and shouted coldly: "Why should someone believe you!"
"Because you can only believe me"! Wei Zheng looked at everyone and said disdainfully: "Just you, can you save the King of Wu?"
No matter how angry Kan Ling was, she knew that Wei Zheng’s statement was very reasonable, and this was a fact.
He didn't know where the Heavenly Prison was, and he had no idea how many troops he had. He would die if he went there.
Kan Leng said: "If you dare to lie to me, I can guarantee that your whole family will die!"
...
Chen Ying naturally could not know the storm in Chang'an. At this time, Chen Ying led his wheels to enter Yiwu territory, although there were thousands of miles of ice and snow, and it was crystal clear.
However, along the way, Li Xiuning did not find any people who were frozen to death on the roadside, no people who were not covered in clothes, and no wild dogs to come out to find food.
When Li Xiuning came, he naturally knew what the Western Regions looked like. If the people in the Central Plains were poor and the people in the Western Regions were struggling on the brink of death, in just three years, Chen Ying ruled the Western Regions so that every family had surplus food and everyone had enough food.
Li Xiuning looked at the village where smoke was rising in the distance. From a distance, Li Xiuning even smelled the aroma of meat in the air and the smell of wheat noodles.
Li Xiuning looked at Chen Ying and said, "How did you do it? In less than three years, the barren land of the Western Regions will be as prosperous as the Central Plains?"
Chen Ying smiled faintly and said, "Governing the country is not as difficult as you think. As long as you ensure the correct direction, the rest will be left to time to ferment naturally."
Li Xiuning said in confusion: "How is this possible? It is very difficult to govern the country. My father often can't sleep at night, and the imperial court's officials were also troubled!"
Chen Ying said: "Everything has its own laws, especially in governing the country, especially in China. As long as you read the history books, you will understand that the law of heaven is so cycled with causes and effects. In fact, no matter who the head of the family is, you will know the general direction. As long as you do not practice harsh government like Qin, increase corvee service, and do not fight internally like Jin, learn from the Han Dynasty's inaction to govern and accumulate people's strength, and avoid the misunderstanding of large-scale infrastructure construction by Emperor Yang of Sui, you can create a great prosperous era!"
Some people say that they are crossing the river by feeling the stones, but China is the old horse crossing the river. Thousands of years of experience in governing the country is here. The predecessors of the muddy water have helped you to get through it. As long as you don’t die by yourself, you can basically achieve peace and prosperity.
China's history is a revised history. Qin's laws were harsh and the people were uneasy, so Liu Bang simplified the complex and said, "Those who kill people die, those who hurt people and those who steal theft will pay for their crimes." Therefore, the Han Dynasty based on these three rules.
Later, Cao Cao was tyrannical and the prime minister had too much power. During the Jin Dynasty, the position of prime minister was abolished, and Sima Yan was worried that it would cause the princes of the Three Kingdoms to compete for hegemony and abolish the troops of the county and state.
Of course, Sima Yan was committed suicide by himself. A country cannot be protected without army and armed forces. Under Sima Yan's brainless decision, the 188 counties of the 23 prefectures of the Jin Dynasty only retained less than 100,000 troops. These troops could not even deal with larger robbers, not to mention defending the enemy beyond the foundation of the country.
Even the Eastern Jin Dynasty was correcting the mistakes of the Western Jin Dynasty and recovering the troops of the counties and states.
As for, the Sui and Tang Dynasties were actually the same.
Chen Ying continued: "To govern a country, you must understand the nature of the people of this country. As long as you start from the nature of the people when doing things, you will basically not lose the hearts of the people and thus sit down for a long time."
As he said that, Chen Ying sighed and said, "The reason why I came back is because the Tang Dynasty court is on the wrong path, going further and further and further and further and deviate!"
