Chapter 137 Someone can't sit still
Qi's reaction was very fast. After returning home, he immediately called his son Li Yuanbai and adopted son Li Yuanyin, and ordered Yuanbai to write a letter to the master and send his confidant family to Shaowu on a fast horse. He also asked Yuanyin to inquire about the situation of Wenzhi's family to see if there was anything to help.
...
After the victory, the people of Guangzhou City were all disgusted. Why did the emperor have no movement? How could it be so big that he annihilated 5,000 enemies? Why did the meritorious soldiers not receive rewards?
Some people went to find Hu Xiazi: "Didn't you say that the emperor would reward Marshal Li with a title? He would also be a marquis, where?"
The blind man blinked his eyelids and said unwillingly: "The emperor is a dragon, do you know? Have you heard of the saying "The dragon is not seen at the end"? Can I guess the emperor's thoughts right? You are so stupid, so believe that?"
"Tsk, it turns out to be bragging." Everyone scattered.
Not only the people, but also the ministers in the court were wondering: "What's wrong? Is there a dirty relationship between the emperor and Marshal Li? The monarch and his ministers are in trouble?"
At this moment, a rumor began to spread in Guangzhou: "Marrior Li Chengdong was very good at Marshal Li's achievements. The emperor was afraid that Marshal Li would be in a difficult situation, so he did not reward him for his contributions. He heard that Marshal Li was very angry and was ready to raise an army to return to Guangzhou..."
The more the news spread, the faster it was, the more people were trusted. For a moment, people in Guangzhou were panic.
Zhu Youlang did not dare to take this rumor with ulterior motives and asked Ma Jixiang to quietly investigate the source of the rumors, and found that it was from the family of the censor Su Mingfeng.
Since Xing Xiaozao reported Yue Bao secretly, Zhu Youlang immediately asked Ma Jixiang to conduct a secret investigation and found that someone was indeed treasonous.
Leading the leaders were Huang Rizhang, the former Minister of Personnel, and Su Mingfeng, the Censor of Supervisor. They had already reached out to the imperial guards. Su Mingfeng once sent a signal of temptation to his brother Su Xiong, but was severely rebuked by Su Xiong. Regarding this matter, Su Xiong also wrote a special memorial to explain.
Zhu Youlang was still satisfied with Su Xiong's performance. Although there was also a word to protect Su Mingfeng in the memorial, it was understandable that he was a brotherly relationship between the same clan. But Su Xiong was the right side.
There are two reasons why Zhu Youlang did not close the net.
First, he didn't understand that Chen Jitai actually got involved and fought with Huang Rizhang very enthusiastically. What is he going to do? Although he was exempted from his title, he also covered up his crime of rebellion and was also generous to his two sons. What else do he want? Is he disregarding his son's future? He disregarding his family's fortunes and lives?
I heard that he spoiled Chen Jiaoxi very much. Chen Jiaoxi had just clamored to be the imperial concubine some time ago, and he boldly expressed his love to herself. Is it necessary to rebel against me? Is it because I did not agree to his precious daughter's marriage that he wanted to take risks because he held a grudge?
Originally, he had doubts about Chen Jiaoxi: "She approached herself deliberately, is it related to treason?" But judging from the situation reported by Ma Jixiang, Chen Jiaoxi showed love first, and Huang Rizhang and Chen Jitai later. From the point of time, there should be no Chen Jiaoxi.
What's even more strange is that Chen Jitai was purely a personal act and did not tell his two sons about his plans, nor did he try to convince his son to participate in the rebellion.
Because it involves Chen Bowen and Chen Zhongde, they don’t want Chen Jiaoxi, a girl who once showed love to her, to have a bad end. Zhu Youlang wants to take a look at what Chen Jitai wants to do? Is there something to forgive?
The second reason is what Huang Zongxi said about Feng Qingjun.
Huang Zongxi once said that Feng Qingjun's place in Guangzhou should be an insider of the Qing court. Is this insider Huang Rizhang, Su Mingfeng or Chen Jitai? If so, then the problem is much simpler and it is just a one-stop shop. If not, then you have to look for clues.
So, he wanted to take a look and wait a little longer to see if Huang Rizhang had any flaws exposed. If he was really an insider of the Qing court, he would not have been able to contact them.
As for the danger, Zhu Youlang just laughed it off. What kind of storm can a group of mobs without power, power, soldiers or generals cause? What's more, their actions are under their control.
Zhu Youlang also laughed at the rumor spread by Su Mingfeng. He just spread it when he was idle, but he would be self-defeating in two days.
...
Zhu Youlang could just laugh at this rumor, but the Li family couldn't sit still. The Qi family had no choice but to drag Xing Xiaozao to the palace for nothing, either to talk to the empress dowager or to bring some medicinal materials and supplements for the empress to safeguard herbs. In fact, the real purpose was to explore the emperor's tone.
But Zhu Youlang didn't move, he didn't say anything, and he could still receive the gifts he sent. Every time he met, he smiled and couldn't tell anything.
Qi really couldn't find out anything, so he had to let his adopted son Li Yuanyin come forward and explain to the emperor.
"Train your troops well and avoid getting involved in this matter." Zhu Youlang attaches great importance to Li Yuanyin, not only because of his positive role in Li Chengdong's incident, but also because this person is very upright and has always been very close to the training of the imperial guards and the effect is also very good.
"I know it in my mind, you don't have to get involved. You have to understand that the imperial guards are not master soldiers. I feel that only responsible for my guards and defenses will not come to Guangzhou. Let me tell you that I may take the imperial guards to fight. You must be mentally prepared."
When Li Yuanyin heard this, he suddenly raised his head and his eyes lit up: "Really? Master, I have been there for such a day."
"It's a turbulent time now, not a peaceful time, and there are some battles. The key to your training is to let the soldiers and the generals leading the troops understand who the war is for. If this problem is solved, you won't be careless when you go to the battlefield. Do you already know the matter of literary quality?"
"Yes, I already know. I admire General Wen's heroic sacrifice. I will definitely take him as an example and die for the emperor, and I will never hesitate at all."
"I know your loyalty. What does Wenzhi mean? It means that the Qing soldiers are not scary. Their terrible thing is that they are not afraid of death when fighting. Our Ming army has always been afraid of death since the past. The reason for fear of death is that they are not afraid of death is that they are not afraid of death. Now don't worry, wait a few days before, your adopted father's memorial arrives, and I will vigorously commend Wenzhi and vigorously promote his deeds. As for you, you must seize this opportunity and instill the spirit of Wenzhi's not afraid of sacrifice into the soldiers, and build the imperial army into an invincible and invincible iron army."
"Yes, the emperor, I will definitely live up to the emperor's expectations and build the imperial guard into an iron army."
