The Yanping Huihui began in the sixth year of Taihe reign of Emperor Taizong, and has been established every two years since then.

Huiye is equivalent to the military exercise that Pei Yue knew in his previous life. It is designed to test the armament and training results of each battalion of the Beijing army. It is an important means to improve the strength of the Beijing battalion. In addition, the Zhongzong Dynasty began to implement elite troops, streamlined administration and rotational operations.

The strategy is to ensure that the Beijing camp always maintains a combat capability that is not weaker than that of the border troops, and avoids the situation of being strong on the outside but weak on the inside.

For the three major battalions of the Beijing Army, the result of the hunting meeting is not only related to honor, but also affects all aspects of treatment in the following two years. Therefore, no one dares to look down upon it. It has always been a military affairs personally handled by the commanders of each battalion.

The last hunting meeting was held at the turn of spring and summer in the third year of Kaiping. Logically speaking, the next meeting would be the fifth year of Kaiping. However, when the Western Wu army invaded that year, Beiying and Xiying were preparing to enter the battlefield in the west, so it had to be postponed.

No one expected that the Southern Zhou Dynasty would provoke another war in the sixth year of Kaiping, so the hunt was postponed again.

What Wang Pingzhang said is reasonable and reasonable. The barbarians in northern Xinjiang are just a scabies disease, which Pei Yue can easily solve by leading two elite guards. The Yanping hunting meeting should be held as scheduled, otherwise the soldiers in the Beijing camp will definitely become inert.

The ministers in front of the palace quite agreed with his suggestions. In addition to the importance of the Yanping Hunting Conference, there is another reason that cannot be ignored. Gu Liang is a right-wing military commander in the West Prefecture and has a heavy and busy military affairs. If it is just because of an impeachment without evidence,

Just go home and wait for investigation, which will have very terrible consequences.

Conflict in the court is inevitable. If this becomes a routine, then anyone can follow it - if you are impeached, you have to return to the government. Who will do things in the court in the future?

Only in the eyes of a few important ministers, today's impeachment of Zhang Tang and subsequent speeches by Wang Pingzhang are confusing.

For example, the right-wing leader Luo Ting and the imperial censor Huang Rentai subconsciously believed that Wang Pingzhang was trying to force Gu Liang out of the West Mansion temporarily after Zhang Tang took action. Whether he wanted to take back the power he had given up in the past few years or take advantage of it.

Pei Yue's reorganization during his time away from Beijing was always an attempt after many years.

But what's going on now? Is it just to make Gu Liang lose some face?

On the dragon chair, Emperor Kaiping seemed completely unaware of the undercurrent below and said calmly: "Gu Qing."

Gu Liang lowered his head slightly and said, "I'm here."

Emperor Kaiping said: "The Duke of Wei's words are reasonable. Please bear with the injustice for the time being. We should put state affairs first."

Gu Liang said calmly: "Your Majesty's words are serious. I have no resentment in my heart. What I said before is just that I don't want to break the rules of the court."

Emperor Kaiping nodded and said: "The matters mentioned in Zhang Tang's impeachment will be handed over to the Governor's Office of the Fifth Army for detailed investigation."

Xu Shou, the chief officer of the Dudu Mansion, went out to respond: "I accept the order."

Emperor Kaiping looked at Wang Pingzhang again and said: "Regarding this year's Yanping hunting meeting, Xifu will draft the regulations as soon as possible and give them to me for review."

Wang Pingzhang said: "Your Majesty, I think this matter should be presided over by Marquis Guangping, and I can just assist you."

In a sense, there is nothing wrong with his response. Compared with the bedridden left-wing leader Mo Haoli, although his body is stronger, he is still a sixty-six-year-old veteran, and he is gradually reaching his age.

At an age when people are begging for their bones and returning home, further delegation of power is inevitable.

Sooner or later, Gu Liang will take over the post of Zuo Junji from him, and now He should gradually take over various affairs of the Xifu.

There was a strange silence in the side hall. After a long time, Emperor Kaiping muttered: "Good."

Today's court meeting ended and when the ministers left, Luo Huanzhang, the commander of the South Camp of the Beijing Army and Marquis of Dingjun, came to Gu Liang and said to him: "Master Junji, I don't know anything about Liang Shitao's drunken nonsense.

"

Gu Liang raised his eyes and looked at this middle-aged tiger general who had risen from the frontier army and had scars all over his body to show his merits. He saw the anger deep in his eyes and knew that he had probably concluded that Liang Shitao was under Wang Pingzhang's instructions. After all, it was difficult to conquer the capital.

Find the second big shot with such abilities and ideas to target Gu Liang.

After thinking for a while, he comforted him with a gentle word: "Commander Luo, don't worry about it. Who among the princes in the court has never been impeached? Although Liang Shitao is talented, his temperament is a bit extreme. It is probably because I did not promote him as a commander and he is resentful.

It's a trivial matter, and the Governor's Mansion will surely get to the bottom of it soon."

Luo Huanzhang nodded slightly, cupped his fists and said: "Master Junji has a broad mind, and I admire him very much."

Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Wang Pingzhang approaching. Luo Huanzhang saluted Gu Liang and then turned around and left. Apparently he was dissatisfied with Wang Pingzhang for involving his generals in the imperial dispute.

This scene fell in the eyes of many important ministers, and they couldn't help but secretly harbor suspicions.

Since Emperor Kaiping came to the throne, except for Pei Yue, there are very few military heroes who dare to ignore Wang Pingzhang's majesty.

Wang Pingzhang seemed unaware, and after nodding greetings to Gu Liang, he walked down the long steps in front of the palace with a calm expression.

…

Wei Guogong Mansion, Bagui Hall.

Wang Jiuxuan personally delivered a bowl of ginseng tea to Wang Pingzhang and said calmly: "Grandpa, Li Zi has been constantly investigating the Imperial Army during this period and has transferred all of his grandson's cronies, except for a small number who have entered the Kyoto garrison and served as unrelated officers."

All the rest who hold important positions will be transferred to Xiying."

Li Zi, the Marquis of Hejian, was the confidant of Emperor Kaiping when he was living in the imperial palace. He has been in the Forbidden Army for more than ten years. He has not moved from his position since he was promoted to the commander-in-chief of the Forbidden Army seven years ago. He can be called a loyal dog that the emperor trusts extremely. Over the years, he

He has never made a public appearance, and many people seem to have forgotten his existence, but for the grandparents and grandchildren in Bagui Hall, Li Zi is the name they often mention, second only to the commander of the Kyoto garrison, Xiangcheng Hou Xiaojin.

Wang Pingzhang took a sip of ginseng tea and said meaningfully: "Do you know why Your Majesty did not move these people and instead sent them to Xiying?"

As we all know, the West Camp of the Beijing Army is Wang Pingzhang's territory. After more than 20 years of efforts to cultivate it, it has long been as unbreakable as an iron barrel.

Wang Jiuxuan muttered: "Your Majesty wants to force my grandfather to take action, and then catch them all in one fell swoop."

Wang Pingzhang smiled and said: "Then how can we disobey the holy will? The Yanping Hunting Conference is expected to be held in mid-May, and we still have a few things to do before that."

Wang Jiuxuan bowed and said, "Please give me your instructions, grandpa."

Wang Pingzhang put down the soup bowl and said calmly: "I will personally handle the contact with the prince. During this period, you will focus on the person in Beiying. Now Pei Yue is far away in Northern Xinjiang, Beiying

The group is leaderless, and the boy from the Qin family is useless, so we should let them raise the flag first, so as to conceal our true purpose."

Wang Jiuxuan nodded and said, "My grandson understands."

Wang Pingzhang added: "Siren Yun sent someone to send a secret letter the day before yesterday, saying that the descendants of the Chen family will complete the last step. I deeply believe that it is more appropriate to leave this matter to that woman."

Wang Jiuxuan thought for a moment and said cautiously: "Grandpa, Silent Cloud may not be credible."

Wang Pingzhang looked at him with approval and said leisurely: "Your Majesty wants to catch all those with evil intentions. In this process, he must rely on the power of Taishitai Pavilion. It is not enough to rely solely on the current Luan Yiwei. If you say more, you will be wrong. Unfortunately, it is not that easy for Silent Cloud to deceive me, and I will not put all my hopes on him."

Wang Jiuxuan nodded, and then asked slightly puzzled: "Grandpa, why didn't you take advantage of the situation to force Gu Liang to leave the West Mansion today?"

Of course he knew that Liang Shitao, the deputy commander of the South Camp, had long been Wang Pingzhang's chess piece. There were many chess pieces like this. If the Governor's Office conducted a thorough investigation, they would naturally find evidence that he sent money to Gu Liang.

Wang Pingzhang looked out the window indifferently and said slowly: "Gu Liang can't leave yet, because your majesty is guessing what I'm thinking. It's hard to tell the true from the false and the combination of right and wrong is the way to use troops. Jiuxuan, have you prepared those materials properly? "

Wang Jiuxuan responded: "It's ready. Grandpa, do you really want to give these things away?"

Wang Pingzhang smiled with a complicated expression, nodded and said: "Send it out so that those people can justifiably impeach me. I really want to know what your Majesty will decide. If he can stop here, I don't necessarily have to embark on regicide. road.”

Wang Jiuxuan sighed softly. He believed that his grandfather's words were sincere. After all, the Wang family was facing a powerful king with great power.
