Chapter two hundred and fifth
Chapter 205: Plain
Li Ganshun asked: "What if Ouyang Yi doesn't do it all the time, becomes a shameless person, and doesn't invite Zhao Hu'er, and kill me who has lost his military power?"
"Haha, Your Majesty has filtered more. Although Ouyang is an imperial envoy, Song followed so many officials this time, but he was not a vegetarian. How could he let Ouyang ruin the reputation of the emperor? To put it bluntly, if Ouyang Yiyi killed us alone, we would at least bring Ouyang to accompany us to bury him."
"Gao" Li Ganshun said happily: "As long as you sign a contract with others, no matter whether Ouyang breaks his trust or not, it will definitely be a dead end. Once Ouyang dies, the Song Dynasty will inevitably have internal friction. If Zhao Yu still wants to conquer Liao and attack Jin, it will be the time when our party Xiang people make a comeback."
"Yes, Your Majesty, it is rumored that Song Jiang had been rampant for more than 10,000 people, and everywhere he went, he was invincible. If Your Majesty blossomed in the Song Dynasty and joined forces with Liao or Jin, he would not only make a comeback, but also be the lord of the Central Plains."
"Okay, I'll take this guy with the surname Ou even if I die."
In the eyes of the power-in-arms of various countries, only those who are superior to Liao look at Ouyang Beishuang. Why? According to historical records, Li Ganshun and Wanyan Aguda are both promising rulers. Emperor Tianzuo and Emperor Huizong of Song were both kings who were destroyed. The outcome was the same. It is normal for bad people to look at bad people and face rat eyes.
China has never lacked a sinister politician like Wu Wei. Wu Wei can see clearly, and someone on Song can see clearly. Although these old-school people who play politics don’t understand what Ouyang is thinking, when Ouyang signed the peace contract, only one civil servant couldn’t help but remind him a little: “Mr. Ou, you are representing Your Majesty. For such a major national event, it’s best to consider a few days before making a decision.”
Ouyang signed and said, "One peace agreement can kill a lot of people. What is my Ouyang? Besides, signing a peace agreement one day later will cost more soldiers. I don't want to be this sinner."
The ministers who were interested in reminding him no longer insisted on anything when they saw Ouyang saying this. So the peace agreement was signed.
Back to the central army account, Han Shizhong followed the peace agreement and sent soldiers to take over Xingqing Mansion a few days later. However, these were all instructed to make plans by the people below. Han Shizhong was very nervous and asked Ouyang to have a secret conversation. Han Shizhong pointed to the marriage agreement on the peace agreement and said, "Mr. Ou, I know that the marriage with Liao was very fierce in the past few years. As far as I know, the Supreme Emperor is ready to betroth Zhao Hu'er to his most proud student. If you sign a peace agreement, you will inevitably cause a big disaster."
Ouyang Xiao asked: "Did General Han see from the false imperial edict that I have any noble qualities?"
"This..." Han Shizhong wanted to speak but stopped.
"If General Han thinks there is no quality, he can just say it."
"To be honest, I feel that sir is shameless. General Liu also wrote a letter to me that if he can win a war, he can be shameless." Han Shizhong looked at Ouyang's expression and added: "But sir is desperate this time."
"Haha" Ouyang Xiao stood up and patted Han Shizhong on the shoulder: "How could a person who doesn't even want a face lose his life? General Han would arrange to take over Xingqing Mansion as soon as possible. By the way, if some people want to accumulate money in the past two days and prepare for being Anle Gong in the future, they will all go. But Wu Wei is watching me to death, and I will notify you separately. General Han should know how to do it."
"Of course" Han Shizhong stood up and said, "Han had long wanted to kill this man with his hand. The wars in Song and Xixia for nearly a hundred years can be said to have been initiated by this man. He was born as a Han man, but a traitor. Although his loss of office led to his dissatisfaction with the court, who in the world had a perfect thing? If he blamed others for his dissatisfaction with the world if he was not satisfied with his magistrate, how could that be? Furthermore, during his tenure as a magistrate, Wu Wei was not very good at the official position. He lost his official position because he was dissatisfied with his beloved boss and spoke wildly to his new boss, expressing his loyalty to his old master."
"Yeah." Ouyang nodded: "This person defected to Xixia and provoked war. He was highly valued by the monarchs of all dynasties in Xixia. His descendants were prosperous and wealthy due to their rebellious behavior, and they would eventually return what they should pay back." As a modern judicial officer, Ouyang actually did not understand certain laws. For example, corruption. An official was arrested after 20 years of embezzlement, but only pursued the crimes of this official, but ignored his wives and children who have enjoyed the benefits of corruption for twenty years. According to Ouyang's logic, it is not an exaggeration to sentence accomplices to enjoy the results of the crime. After all, it is partly because of their needs, which leads to corruption in the criminals.
Han Shizhong understood what Ouyang meant, nodded and said, "I understand."
When Han Shizhong left, Ouyang took out the letter to Zhang Xuanming, put a piece of paper full of words in the letter, and then said: "Zhang San, transfer two hundred imperial guards to Tokyo, and hand it to Lord Zhang Xuanming with his own hands. He will arrange what you will do next. If he does not arrange for you to do things, he will hit you back after reading the letter, or ask you to wait for news on the spot, go to the Royal Newspaper immediately and hand over the second letter to Li Yifeng."
"Yes" Zhang San agreed immediately.
Ouyang nodded and said, "Zhang San, this matter is related to my wealth and life. Be careful."
"Don't worry, even if Zhang San dies, he will do this thoroughly."
"Well, if Lord Zhang wants to force you to keep you, you can open the third letter and kill him in the name of my imperial envoy."
Zhang San heard something in Ouyang's words, but he didn't quite understand why Ouyang began to distrust Zhang Xuanming. But he understood the importance of the three letters Ouyang said, and clasped his fists and said, "Don't worry, sir, I'll set off now."
"Yeah, go"
Only Li Si and Ouyang were left in the tent. Li Si said with concern: "Since you know that it is inappropriate, you also know that there are not many trustworthy people. Why do you still have to risk agreeing to Wu Wei's conditions?"
"You also know that this person is an old fox. He is sure that I will not agree." Ouyang said: "Actually, I have done bad things many times. If I want to pursue them, it may not be possible to cut off my head, but it is certain that I will be exiled. In the past, I rely on the emperor to protect me. Even if everyone has any objections to my methods, I will not make things difficult for me after all. Wu Wei knows me very well. He knows that I can't see tens of thousands of people dying here and dare not take any risks. In other words, I really pay for it this time, and I think it's worth it."
Li Si bowed his fists and said, "So even if the adults have something to do and Li Si is in trouble, Li Si will definitely not regret following the adults."
"Actually, I feel sorry for you. You are very capable, not only good at martial arts, but also understand the current situation, understand practice, sympathize with people's livelihood, and are upright and strong. But the position is a low-ranking yamen runner who is looked down upon."
Li Si smiled and said, "Yangping's yamen runner status is not low. Besides, the lord is three imperial envoys, one military supervisor, and the other road inspection envoy. I am afraid that few people in the Song Dynasty can have such honor. We follow the lord, and we have already benefited a lot. Judging from the lord's arrangement, although Li Si does not know the lord's specific plan, Li Si knows that lord will not only be fine, but also can do what he wants to do."
"It depends on God's will, but it seems that I have never been too bad."
As Ouyang guessed, the nobles of the Dangxiang Tuoba clan began to turn their fortunes and hide their wealth. If they don’t care for themselves, they will be punished by heaven and earth. Now that the big tree in Xixia has fallen, whether they can live a good life depends on how much property they have. Not every era has wise and extreme national leaders. However, Li Ganshun from Xingqing Prefecture secretly met some people, including Li Huan who was under house arrest and Wei Ming Shouquan. What Li Ganshun didn’t know was that under the current tragic situation, some people who were absolutely loyal to him had become Ouyang. Under Ouyang’s wealth and bad habits, how many people were still loyal to Li Ganshun in Xixia?
The night before taking over, Ouyang called Han Shizhong and more than a dozen regular generals with the acceptance duties. Ouyang didn't like to eat and talk while doing office work, but talked about things when watching tea. Although Ouyang didn't taste tea, he was full of good things. After a tour, the generals with knowledge of the goods praised the tea.
After all, the army is an army. When everyone saw Ouyang put down the cup, they immediately sat upright. Ouyang said: "Everyone has actually arranged the matter at hand. Whoever is in charge of the area and who is responsible for the details is very clear. But I want to add one here. Once the soldiers in the city are controlled, they will kill all the people written on this piece of paper. To the outside world, they are plundering and killing them by chance. Some of them hid a large number of land deeds, gold and other items, and all handed over to Zhu Da."
"The last one will be in" Zhu Da's position to clasp his fists.
Ouyang said: "All the supplies are handed over to you, and then they are returned to the generals at a 30% rebate. Even if this imperial envoy rewards you all the generals. As for the incalculable items such as land deeds, I have a unified price list, which I can buy directly by myself."
Zhu Da hesitated for a moment and said a little worried: "Sir, if this order is issued, it may bring disaster to the civilians."
"The civilians have already run away. Besides, the Tuoba family has led people to search. Some of them are big fish on the list, and those not on the list cannot even be scraped off the oil and water." Ouyang took out another piece of paper: "General Han"
"exist"
"The paper is written about Song Youli people and sent someone to protect the safety of their home."
"Yes" Han Shizhong took the paper and browsed a little and said in surprise: "Wei Ming Shouquan? This... As far as the last general knows, it seems unlikely that General Wei Ming will surrender to the Song Dynasty."
"This old general has a high prestige in the Xixia army. Many generals and even tribal private soldiers were trained by him. He would not surrender, but as long as the Xixia people think that he also surrendered, the army would not rebel without a leader."
