Chapter 0676 Li Family(1/2)
Although Feng Junhou's calm performance won the admiration of General Zhao.
But in fact, Feng Yong’s family knew about his family affairs.
On the surface, he looks as stable as an old dog, but on the inside, he is a shocked one.
When I was still subject to the limitations of history and still hesitating about Li Yan's political lifespan.
Siniang was actually able to conclude on the spot that the Han Prime Minister would definitely take advantage of the victory in the Northern Expedition and would not be merciful to Li Yan. She even concluded that Li Yan would definitely lose power.
This political vision is indeed infinitely better than mine.
After all, Li Yan was no ordinary minister. In addition to being an auxiliary minister entrusted by the late emperor, he also controlled a considerable amount of troops.
As long as someone doesn't catch you, how can you be brought down so easily?
So when I think about it, the best Zhuge Yao can do is weaken Li Yan's foundation step by step, and finally deliver a fatal blow.
Unexpectedly, Old Demon Zhuge was so anxious and wanted to succeed in one fell swoop.
The method is very simple and crude, that is, directly unite with the ministers of the DPRK and China to impeach Li Yan.
How many of the DPRK and Chinese ministers will agree?
Needless to say, Zhao Yun, Deng Zhi and Ma Dai guarded Longyou.
Li Huina, the commander-in-chief of Nanzhong's surrender, was a die-hard supporter of Zhuge Lao Yao.
And Wei Yan, the original governor of Hanzhong, is now a member of the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Logically speaking, the two brothers Wu Yi and Wu Ban should be members of the Dongzhou sect along with Li Yan. In addition, they are brothers of the Empress Dowager, so they have a lot of say.
If they are willing to save Li Yan, Li Yan may not be able to help him.
However, after the Northern Expedition, the two brothers of the Wu family might have suspected Zhuge Lao Yao and stood on the same front.
What's more, as relatives, they are closely connected with the royal family. Li Yan's various actions have endangered the royal family. How could they lend a helping hand to Li Yan?
With the entire court facing enemies, the only one who can save Li Yan is the emperor.
It's a pity that Adou doesn't have much right not to speak up, so he still obeys Zhuge Demon in everything.
What's more important is that even if Adou can personally take charge of the power, based on the temperament of his sister-in-law, she may be more eager to get rid of Li Yan than Zhuge Lao Yao.
Although it is not sure whether Li Yan's advice to Zhuge Lao Yao to enter Jiuxi was known to the palace, he wanted to divide the five counties into autonomous areas and did not obey the emperor's orders to go north to Hanzhong during the Northern Expedition.
Now he regards Jiangzhou as his own territory and ignores the imperial court's order to appoint Xiangchong as the governor of Jiangzhou.
Adou must know these things.
Once Adou knew it, Zhang Xingcai naturally knew it.
This series of events may seem like Li Yanfei is domineering on the surface, but in fact they are all slapping the imperial court in the face and treating the emperor as if he is nothing.
Feng Yong sat there with the impeachment letter and thought for a long time before he figured out why Zhang Xingyi was so sure that Li Yan had lost power.
Everyone in the court is an enemy, and no one is willing to lend a helping hand!
Old Demon Zhuge asked him to write a letter to Li Feng. In addition to wanting to push him, he also wanted to control this political struggle on Li Yan alone.
He didn't want to affect his family, so he wanted to protect Li Feng.
Feng Yong thought of this and nodded, "The usurpers have not yet been wiped out, the country is in many difficulties, and the country's affairs must be peaceful. Victory can be achieved, but it cannot be left in bud to endanger the great cause."
"However, Li Yan was an important auxiliary minister entrusted by the late emperor. He received too much loyalty, but did not think about repaying loyalty. He acted unjustly, ignored dangers and shames, was confused, talked about prisons and abandoned science, led people to commit treachery, and was narrow-minded.
Crazy, as if there is no heaven and earth."
Feng Junhou unceremoniously misappropriated the charges Zhang Xingyi pinned on Li Yan.
"The Prime Minister's Northern Expedition, he was afraid to move forward. Waiting for the great victory in Longyou, he wanted to take the credit. With such behavior, how could he steal a high position and stand in the court again?"
Zhao Yun was originally worried that because of Li Feng, Feng Yong would have scruples about this matter, but he didn't expect that Feng Tubou would slap so many hats on Li Yan at once.
Immediately I took a breath.
Then he desperately spit out the meat in his mouth.
One of them didn't pay attention and got burned.
"Do you have a grudge against Li Yan?"
Zhao Yun asked curiously.
"No ah."
Feng Yong was also a little surprised why the old man would ask this.
Zhao Yun didn't believe it.
"When I heard what you just said, it seems like you have a lot of grudge against Li Yan?"
No, it should be Siniang... That's not right either, it's most likely Zhang Xingcai who has a lot of resentment towards Li Yan.
But there was no way to explain this to Zhao Yun.
So Feng Junhou said seriously, "Old General, I am determined to revive the Han Dynasty. I have always treated those who only care about personal interests and ignore state affairs as enemies."
After hearing this, Zhao Yun looked at the righteous face of this boy and suddenly felt that if he continued this topic with this boy, he would probably lose his life.
In order to live longer, he decided to eat more meat and drink more wine.
I had really wasted my worries before.
Thinking of how evil this boy was, Zhao Yun had to remind him, "Liu Yan's son Liu Liang will take a post in Longyou in the future."
"After all, you are someone who is called a king by others. Don't be so petty. If there are some things, don't hold on to them."
When Feng Yong heard this, he immediately exclaimed, "Old general, if you don't mention this person, I won't even remember who he is. What do you mean by biting and not letting go?"
Zhao Yun sneered, not bothering to listen to his words, he just picked up the wine jar and took a big sip of wine.
On the other hand, Feng Yong, when he heard Zhao Yun mention Liu Yan deliberately, suddenly thought of something in his mind, lowered his voice and asked, "Old general, did Liu Yan also sign the impeachment form?"
"Huh?" Zhao Yun glanced at Feng Yong in surprise, "Why are you asking this?"
When Li Yi came from Hanzhong, he hinted that he should let Liu Liang go. Wasn't there hints from the old demon Zhuge here?
It turns out that Liu Yan reached a deal with Zhuge Laoyao at that time.
Thinking of this, Feng Yong asked again, "Although Liu Yan does not have real power, he is still a veteran who has been with the late emperor for a long time. I'm afraid his ranking on the impeachment list is not low, right?"
Zhao Yun pondered, took another sip of wine unconsciously, then glanced at Feng Yong and said, "Liu Yan is a veteran and a general of chariots and cavalry. Where do you rank him?"
Even if the generals of chariots and cavalry are in name only, at least in name, they are superior to the generals of the Four Expeditions.
If the impeachment form was submitted by Zhuge Laoyao himself and others signed the form, then Liu Yan would be ranked first?
Liu Yan is willing to be the leader, no wonder Zhuge Yao can personally come forward and ask me to let Liu Liang go.
Feng Yong figured this out and nodded.
It seems that the great victory of the first Northern Expedition actually stimulated Zhuge Lao Yao, making him eager to unite the country so that he could launch the second Northern Expedition as soon as possible.
Seeing Feng Yong's thoughtful look, Zhao Yun frowned and said, "The prime minister will handle matters in the court, and it's not your turn to worry about it."
"Besides, you are not very old now, so why are you in a hurry? Just do your duty as a captain to protect the Qiang."
Feng Yong knew that Zhao Yun was doing this for his own good, and immediately responded, "I understand."
Anyway, throughout Ji Han's original history, political struggles were still very peaceful.
During Adou's reign, he killed two ministers with his own hands.
One is Liu Yan and the other is Li Miao.
Liu Yan was seeking death himself and could not blame others.
Li Miao tried to figure out Adou's thoughts after the death of the old demon Zhuge, thinking that Adou would liquidate the old demon Zhuge.
So he wrote a letter to slander the Han Dynasty Prime Minister whose body was still cold. Unexpectedly, Adou was furious and ordered the man to be killed.
Neither of these two people can be considered a real political struggle.
The only person who was killed because of the political struggle was the old man Wei who was fighting for power with Yang Yi after the death of Zhuge Lao Yao. He was directly killed by the Yi tribe.
The remaining losers in the political struggle were basically exiled or deposed as common people, but their lives were not in danger.
Unlike Cao Wei and Soochow, when political struggles were involved, they killed people without mercy, and it was common for blood to flow into rivers. Countless people including clan members, relatives, ministers, generals, etc. were implicated and died.
Therefore, there is a high probability that Li Yan will be deposed as a commoner at most and will not die as he did in the original history.
But when it comes to his own duties, Feng Yong is a little embarrassed.
"Old General, there is currently a shortage of food in Longyou. Even if I go to Longxi, I'm afraid I won't be able to take many people with me."
"Stupid, who asked you to bring so many people there?"
Zhao Yun scolded, "Who would use troops in winter unless there is no last resort?"
"Besides, Chen Shi is guarding Longxi, so you don't need to worry about troop strength."
"I'm letting you go over just to see if I can use your reputation to appease you as much as you can. The rest will be arranged next spring."
"Of course, it would be great if we could use them to find out about the situation in Liangzhou."
