Chapter 426 Arrangement of dog bites dog

Li Shimin looked at Li Zhi walking out with an extremely complicated expression. When he thought of Li Chengqian going to Yichuan County without saying a word, Li Shimin was really a little discouraged.

Ma Zhou, Chu Suiliang and others were worried about Li Shimin and Li Chengqian, and they didn't know how to speak for a while.

After a while, Li Shimin saw that the ministers were all looking at him but stopped, and said indifferently: "It's not that the prince doesn't understand military affairs, you don't have to worry too much. He is now supervising the country. You can send someone to ask what he wants to do."

After saying that, he waved his hand and asked the ministers to go out.

The ministers walked out of Li Shimin's bedroom with their own worries and couldn't help but sigh deeply, knowing that the matter was not over yet. Li Shimin must come out of this tone, and Li Chengqian must find Zhou Jin even if he broke it.

"Sir Chu, according to my opinion, you should take two thousand Luoyang troops to meet with His Royal Highness."

Chu Suiliang hurriedly said, "No need to delay, please give me the order! I will arrive in Yichuan County tonight."

"It's better to send troops from the Luoyang Governor's Mansion!" Dai Zhide said with a pale face.

At this time, Dai Zhide had no hope at all.

Ma Zhou looked cold when he heard this and said in a deep voice: "The people in Yichuan and Songxian County rebelled, and the governor Dai, as the local chief, may not be able to escape. Go back to the mansion and think about it behind closed doors."

Dai Zhide looked at Ma Zhou's cold expression, looked back at Xingzhai's gate and his lips shivered. Finally, he bowed to Ma Zhou and turned around and left.

As the Minister of the Central Secretariat and Dai Zhide's governor, both Ma Zhou was a third-rank civil servant, but Ma Zhou was at the level of prime minister and ordered Dai Zhide to think about his mistakes in the back of the door and Dai Zhide could only obey his orders.

Liu Shi looked at Dai Zhide's back as he left, and signaled to the people around him to follow him to monitor him.

Ma Zhou and Chu Suiliang saw it as if they hadn't seen it.

Ma Zhou's temporary office is next to the yard where Li Shimin lives, and Liu Shi, as the Minister of the Secretariat, is also here.

Several people walked in and Ma Zhou went to arrange a command to dispatch troops.

Chu Suiliang bowed to Liu Shi and said, "Brother Liu, I will lead the troops there to help the crown prince to quell the rebellion, and the other hand, I will advise the crown prince not to act irritably."

Liu Shi understood that Suiliang advised Li Chengqian not to have a quarrel with Li Shimin because of Zhou Jin's death, and said deeply: "Your Highness the Crown Prince is impatient, and I'm tired of Brother Chu."

Chu Suiliang sighed in his heart and continued, "Brother Liu is in Luoyang, and he also wants to win the grief and honor for Zhou Jin. We work together in the Eastern Palace, and Zhou Jin has made contributions and no faults, so he died like this. If we cannot win the honor and honor for him and his family, not to mention that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will not rely on him, even the world and future generations will scold us."

Liu Shi nodded deeply and said, "I will naturally come forward to this matter, but if Zhou Jin's aspirations are too much, your face may not be good."

When Chu Suiliang was about to speak, he saw Ma Zhou taking the written transfer order and came over and said, "Sir Chu will follow me to Your Majesty's Court first."

Chu Suiliang knew that since it was involved in the transfer of troops, Ma Zhou had to write a transfer order and Li Shimin had to give Yufu to mobilize the troops. However, this time he went there just to send the transfer order in for Li Shimin to see, and then use the transfer talisman to mobilize troops, and he might not be able to see Li Shimin again.

Shortly after Ma Zhou's transfer order was handed over, Li Shimin approved it, not only for Hu Fu, but also sent Xi Jun, the general of the Left Guard, to buy troops.

Chu Suiliang and Xi Junmai went to the city barracks to order troops.

In the afternoon, Li Shimin issued an order to posthumously grant Zhou Jin the actual position of the Censor Central Censor and the sanguan to the Zhongsan official. Both positions were positions of the fifth rank, and were eight ranks higher than the original seventh rank of Zhan Shizhi of Zhou Jin.

At the same time, Li Shimin issued an order that the funeral ceremony of Zhou Jin was handled by the Ministry of Rites, and that Zhou Jin, a son of the eighth rank, led Zuo Sige.

Ma Zhou looked at the draft imperial edict and said to Liu Shi Gao Jifu and others: "Your Majesty is so super standard and kind to Zhou Jin, which shows His Majesty's importance to the Eastern Palace, so don't say anything more."

Liu Gao and the others looked at each other and nodded in agreement.

Li Shimin was also very satisfied with this, thinking that even if Li Chengqian was like this, he should be satisfied.

----------------------------

Late at night that day.

Chu Suiliang and Xi Junmai came outside Yichuan City. Xue Rengui asked someone to hang Ju Suiliang into Yichuan City with a basket. He didn't meet Li Chengqian the next morning.

"My minister Chu Suiliang meets the crown prince." Chu Suiliang saluted respectfully.

"Flat!" Li Chengqian said with a blank expression.

"Mr. Chu, the Gu Wang issued an order in Chang'an to go to Jiangnan for inspection, why did you come to Yichuan again?" Li Chengqian did not give Chu Suiliang a chance to speak.

"My name..." Chu Suiliang was speechless for a moment.

"Okay, since the troops have been brought, then go back to Luoyang and take the censors from all over the country to Jiangnan." Li Chengqian did not give Chu Suiliang a chance.

"Your Highness, I have to report some things to you from Luoyang." Chu Suiliang said hurriedly.

Li Chengqian nodded when he heard this, so he agreed.

"Your Highness, Zhou Jin is dead..."

After hearing Chu Suiliang's story when Zhou Jin died, Li Chengqian closed his eyes and took a deep breath and said, "The Gu Wang knows. The Gu Wang has his own decision on the matter in Luoyang. You can take the people to Jiangnan quickly, don't involve this battle."

"What does the Crown Prince mean?" Chu Suiliang was a little confused.

Li Chengqian is too cold to him today.

Li Chengqian looked at Chu Suiliang and mentioned him: "Before King Jing rebelled, the Lone King specially ordered someone to break Wei Shuyu's leg..."

How smart was Chu Suiliang, and immediately understood: "Your Highness, the Crown Prince, are you asking me to go out to get me out of this place of right and wrong in Luoyang?"

Li Chengqian nodded silently and said, "After the Xuanwu Gate Incident, Your Majesty won, but he lost the hearts of the people. The world is stable due to Wei Zheng and Shandong gentry collusion. Now the lonely king has arrived in Luoyang, and Shandong gentry is no longer a problem, but Jiangnan still needs to be stable."

"I obey the order!"

Chu Suiliang almost shed tears when he heard this.

Chu Suiliang was moved to tears for gaining Li Chengqian's trust and value, and committed suicide with Zhou Jin because he was despised by Li Shimin. It was the front and back of a coin.

Seeing that Chu Suiliang had written, Li Chengqian took out a memorial written by him and handed it over and said, "You will return to Luoyang today and submit this memorial to Your Majesty on behalf of the Lone King."

Chu Suiliang took it and saw that it had been sealed with fire lacquer, so he took it into his arms and bowed to Li Chengqian and directly said to leave.

Li Chengqian watched Chu Suiliang leave and then bought Xi Jun to summon him.

"The last person to be Xi Junmai will meet with His Highness the Crown Prince."

"Give yourself a seat!" Li Chengqian said calmly.

Xi Junmai stood up straight and did not sit down. He clasped his fists and said, "Your Highness, the rebellion in Yichuan County has been quelled, and we will finally ask to lead troops to Song County to quell the rebellion."

"No hurry! Just station yourself outside Yichuan City. When it's time to send troops, the Lone King will order it." Li Chengqian said in an unquestionable tone.

Xi Junmai was stunned and said in confusion: "Your Highness, the last general heard that the witch Cai Wenying has been called emperor. How can the court allow her, a witch, to be rampant?"

"The Lonely King has his own reasons, just keep going!" Li Chengqian said that and got up and went out.

Not only did Li Chengqian not allow Xi Junmai to send troops to quell the rebellion, but even several government soldiers around Luoyang issued strict orders to attack Cai Wenying and his gang.

He just dispatched troops to guard several nearby granaries of the imperial court, and ignored any other matters.

He sent all his subordinates to divide the original land and property of the gentry in Yichuan County. He read and practiced calligraphy every day in the backyard of Yichuan County's government office, but no one saw him.

After several days of the time, the gentry's property was divided, so they ordered Xue Dading to take the civilians to clear the Yihe River in Yichuan County. Li Chengqian promised the civilians to dig the canals and each family would give them seeds and farm tools next spring.

These people have their own fields and seeds and farm tools. They are very motivated to work, and the construction period is very fast.

At the same time, Cai Wenying from Song County was not idle. At Ma Jiu's suggestion, he went everywhere to attack the gentry families near Song County, and robbed their property and food to support the Sanming Immortal Sect.

This made all the gentry near Songxian very frightened. They joined forces to Luoyang to seek to see Li Shimin and asked the court to quell the rebellion as soon as possible.
