Chapter 2936 The emperor has feelings
"Your Majesty, in the past two days, Duke Zhao Guo has visited Linghu's house, Hou Mochen's house, Yuwen's house, and Dou's house. Each time, he went into the house to talk in depth for about an hour. However, whenever they had a secret conversation, they both left and right, so it was impossible to obtain Know what he is talking about.”
In the Dragon Palace, His Majesty Li Er was sitting in front of the window holding a book, while Li Junxian was reporting in a low voice.
His Majesty Li Er closed the scroll, tapped it on his knees, closed his eyes and thought for a while, then put the scroll on the table aside, picked up the tea cup and took a sip of tea, and then asked: "After Zhao Guogong's visit , is there anything unusual about each family? ”
Li Junxian said: "There is nothing unusual. It's just that when I visited Linghu's house, I seemed to have a dispute with Pengcheng County Lord, and I was angry when I left. But..."
He paused and continued: "When I was investigating, I found that someone else was keeping an eye on Duke Zhao's mansion."
His Majesty Li Er opened his eyes and was slightly surprised: "Oh? Who did it?"
Li Junxian said: "The general did not alert the snake, but if the general guessed correctly, he should be the Duke of Yue."
"Fang Jun?"
His Majesty Li Er picked up the tea cup and took a sip of tea, and sneered: "I thought this bastard was not afraid of heaven and earth. When he hit Zhao Guogong, wasn't it because he was so frightened that he was afraid of being tricked? So he quickly sent someone to keep an eye on him? Don't go. No matter what, as long as Zhao Guogong doesn't do anything, he won't cause trouble."
"Here."
His Majesty Li Er also warned: "The Eastern Expedition is about to begin. During this period, apart from keeping an eye on the Guanlong families, we must not relax at all inside and outside Chang'an City. At this time, we must first ensure the stability of the capital. If anyone wants to do something wrong, he will be severely punished once found out!”
"I will obey my orders!"
Li Junxian quickly took the order.
As the emperor's eagle dog, he naturally knew that His Majesty Li Er's heart was all about the Eastern Expedition. He had expended so much effort and endured so much grievance for the victory of the Eastern Expedition. Whoever dared to ruin his Eastern Expedition would be the fate of his life and death. enemy!
Even if someone in the clan has ulterior motives, he will kill him ruthlessly to shock everyone!
If the Guanlong nobles really dare to cause trouble here and affect the Eastern Expedition, Li Junxian can guarantee that His Majesty Li Er will be the first to take action on Changsun Wuji.
Tolerance does not mean cowardice, and giving in does not mean indifference. The talented and resourceful His Majesty Li Er has always been very tolerant of the Guanlong nobles. No matter how many troubles the Guanlong nobles caused, he would blindly avoid and tolerate them, all for the sake of the Eastern Expedition. If he discovers that his usual forbearance is ignored by the Guanlong nobles, or even worsens, the furious His Majesty Li Er will probably do the craziest thing.
His Majesty Li Er nodded and said: "Retreat and work hard. After the Eastern Expedition, if you are still dedicated to serving in the army, I will consider it. The Sixteenth Guards, the Four Major Protectors, and even the Navy, Take your pick ”
In recent years, Li Junxian, as the most capable "eagle dog" around him, has actually done a lot of things, which has made him worry a lot. But everyone has his own ambitions. Li Junxian has always wanted to join the army. How could he let him do these shameful things for the rest of his life?
Although Li Junxian knew too many secrets of the royal family and shady stories in the court, His Majesty Li Er felt that he was not a person who was trying to kill the donkey. He would rather take the risk of leaking some secrets than take it seriously. "Cook" and be a ruthless and unjust king.
Kings have been ruthless since ancient times, and he has done ruthless things, but the older he gets, the more he regrets it. Every time he dreams about it at midnight, he is covered in cold sweat and terrified, so he tries his best to get rid of this reincarnation.
Since he wants to far surpass Emperor Qin and Han Wu, why not be a compassionate king?
This is also one of the reasons why although he formulated the national policy of suppressing the Guanlong nobles, he never completely turned his back and went into war. It was not just to maintain the stability of the government during the Eastern Expedition.
Li Junxian was immediately overjoyed. He immediately knelt down on one knee and said gratefully: "Your Majesty's love and compassion will never be forgotten. In this life, I am willing to be your Majesty's front soldier, and I will be smashed to pieces without any hesitation!"
He has long been tired of the life of such an "eagle dog". It seems to have great power, but in fact it is full of dangers. If he is not careful, the whole family will be destroyed. Moreover, people around him treated him with indifference and disdain, which made him full of depression and found it difficult to fulfill his ambition.
Even in my dreams, I want to be on the battlefield. Even if I am wrapped in horse leather, I still want to gallop and expand the territory, living up to the ambition of a seven-foot man!
His Majesty Li Er snorted and said with some displeasure: "You guys always compare me with those kings in the past, thinking that I will be like them. In order to keep the secrets of the royal family, I will treat emperors like you like hawks. Cut them all Kill them all. I am powerful enough to move mountains and swallow up seas. I consider myself to be incomparable to the Qin Emperor and the Han Dynasty. If you are loyal to me and devote yourself to me, I will naturally give you fame, power, wealth and honor. Don’t forget me!” >
Li Junxian was filled with admiration and gratitude: "Your Majesty is mighty!"
His Majesty Li Er then said: "Okay, let's go down and do things. What does it look like for a dignified man of seven feet to shed tears?"
"Here! I will finally realize my mistake and I will resign."
……
Seeing Li Junxian exiting the imperial study, His Majesty Li Er suddenly sighed, his expression a little desolate.
Since ancient times, emperors have been the most ruthless, but why would emperors want to be ruthless?
The sword has two peaks. Since one hand holds the supreme power in the world, the other hand must let go of all the warmth in the world, otherwise it will suffer backlash.
Except for the "killing of brothers and brothers" that the Xuanwu sect had to do back then, he has been sitting on the throne of the world's supreme king for many years, but he has always remained gentle to the relatives and old friends around him, and tried his best to manage the relationship between them. I have also determined to never let anyone down.
Except for Hou Jun who conspired and rebelled and died tragically on the spot, even if Changsun Wuji wanted to interfere with the imperial power and King Jing had far-reaching plans, he never used thunderous means to eradicate them.
He has been waiting, waiting for the other person to wake up and feel the forgiveness and consideration given by him as a king.
I just don’t know if his wish to be a loving king will eventually be let down by those ambitious people, forcing him to pick up the butcher’s knife and cut off his kindness...
*****
The entire empire center is busy running, and various matters related to the Eastern Expedition are being resolved one by one. Various materials are continuously collected from all over the country and transported to the Liaodong front line. The days are getting warmer day by day, and the war is about to break out.
By the end of February, all the preparations for the war had been made in an orderly manner. Just waiting for His Majesty Li Er to swear an oath to go to war, millions of troops would cross the Liao River like wolves and tigers, penetrate directly into the hinterland of Liaodong, and attack the city. Village.
The atmosphere in Chang'an City gradually became solemn.
After all, it is a national war that mobilizes the strength of the whole country. No matter how optimistic the imperial court is about this war report, in the current war, no one dares to neglect their duties or slack off in military affairs. They all handle their duties and powers with wide eyes and rigorously. Matters within the scope will not be caught by His Majesty Li Er and severely punished.
……
After a spring rain last night, even the soil seemed to be exuding fragrance, being blown by the breeze and passing by the new buds of the trees outside the window.
In Guanzhong 1,500 years later, even the temperature at the end of February was very dry and cold. However, this era is different, the climate has not changed yet, and the water vapor is more moist. "The fields are fertile, the people are prosperous, and there are thousands of chariots, fighting against hundreds of trades." , thousands of miles of fertile fields, abundant reserves." People all over the world call it "the so-called Tianfu, the most powerful country in the world." It was many years earlier than the Yizhou Plain received the title of "Land of Abundance".
The Ministry of War Yamen.
In the duty room, Fang Jun and Li Zhi were sitting opposite each other. The tea on the table was steaming with steam. The windows were open, and the air was cool and moist.
Li Zhi took a sip of tea, looked up at Fang Jun, and said in admiration: "The Duke of Yue is really domineering and unscrupulous. The last time I heard that Duke Yue and his father beat Duke Zhao in the royal study, I was really shocked. . Among all the dandies and hooligans in Chang'an City, Yue Guo Gong deserves to be ranked first."
His relationship with Fang Jun has now eased a lot. Although they are still antagonistic, they are not hostile to each other. In private, he would call him "brother-in-law", and in the yamen, he would address him by title and official title.
Fang Jun was lazily leaning on the chair, crossing his legs. Wen Yan glanced at Li Zhi and said with a smile: "This sounds awkward. Your Highness, King Jin, intends to eliminate harm for the people, or for your sake." Uncle seeks justice?”
Li Zhi shook his head and said: "Why does the king have such an intention? It's just a battle in the court. Who wins, who loses, who gains, and who loses. Naturally, let nature take its fate. You can't blame others. If Duke Zhao has the upper hand, what will happen to Duke Yue is probably the same. Not much better."(End of Chapter)
