Chapter eight hundred and twenty seventh bad news
"The family family is not a monolithic. Their fight is also a life-and-death battle. Once there is a chance, the cruel methods are probably as common people can imagine. The foundation of the Chen family is in Lingnan. Once the battle starts, I am afraid that other aristocratic families in addition to the court will take this opportunity to eradicate them together with the Chen family. With this concern, Chen Hu naturally wants to strongly oppose the court's dispatch of troops to Lingnan."
Sima Tu's analysis.
Li Xun nodded. Sima Tu said something reasonable. Chen Hu was not afraid of the court, but other aristocratic families who followed the torrent of the court and entered Lingnan, and then destroyed it with the Chen family. It was not impossible. Lu Siyao, the governor of Chenzhou, who is also a Lingnan force, had a very bad relationship with the Chen family. The conflict between the two sides was extremely fierce. In the past, Wei Wennan mediated from the middle and buffered each other, allowing the three forces to form a balance. Now that Wei Wennan is dead, this balance is immediately broken.
"Lord, now that Wei Wennan is dead, who do you think is the most nervous?"
Sima Tu said out loud.
Li Xun smiled and said, "Of course, it is Lu Siyao, the governor of Chenzhou. Wei Wennan has no ambitions, and both sides can be at peace. Judging from Shi Hu's style of conduct, this person is obviously not an easy person. Qianzhou's military power is far superior to Chenzhou. If the two tigers, Shi Hu and Chen Hu, united, Lu Siyao would definitely not be their opponent."
Sima Tu smiled and said, "It seems that Lu Si will take action immediately if he wants to do something."
"Maybe."
Li Xun stopped talking about anything else, got on a carriage with Sima Tu and returned home.
The decisions and development of many things and the indecision of internal matters are only one aspect, but more importantly, the changes in the external situation, which makes it more difficult to make a decision.
After Li Xun's visit, Li Zhong wrote to Zhao Xun again the next day. This time he did not strongly demand to send troops to Qianzhou, but changed his strategy and suggested that Zhao Xun appoint Zhao Bai'an as the Jiangnan patrol? On the surface, he was inspecting and supervising various taxes in Jiangnan. In fact, he secretly contacted his old subordinates, gathered troops from Hong and Jiangnan, and paid close attention to the movements in Qianzhou. Once Shi Hu had any unjust acts, he could send troops to suppress the rebellion immediately. In this way, even if the war really broke out, Zhao Bai'an had an army in his hands and he was there to take charge, the Jiangnan region would not be in chaos? Shi Hu's disaster could not leave Lingnan, and the entire situation could be controlled within the smallest range.
The suggestions given by Li Zhong during his second letter were very consistent with Zhao Xun's wishes. In this way, he could make a plan calmly. Whether it was a fight or not, the initiative was in his own hands.
This is the result Zhao Xun wanted.
The first year of Kaiyuan, the sixth day of the fifth month.
The governor of Chenzhou, Lu Si, wanted to write to the court, saying that Shi Hu killed local officials, and the governor of Qianzhou was killed by him. In less than ten days, he killed more than 500 soldiers and officers in the army. Without the court's approval, he was so bold and rebellious that he had rebelled without a doubt and should be severely punished. He hoped that the court would dispatch troops as soon as possible to encircle Shi Hu and control the situation in Qianzhou.
The memorial that Lu Si asked for came to Zhao Xun in the morning. In just two or three hours, Shi Hu's memorial also arrived in the afternoon and immediately sent it to Zhao Xun.
Shi Hu wrote to the court and said three things in total.
First, the cause of Wei Wennan's death was He Shikui, the general of the Third Battalion of the Central Army. Because he was punished and insulted by Wei Wennan, he held a grudge. He took advantage of the time when Wei Wennan was out and sent someone to assassinate him. He then led more than a thousand soldiers in the headquarters to destroy Wei Wennan's family and young, and then joined forces with the governor of Qianzhou and some ambitions in the army to launch a mutiny and seize the military power of Qianzhou. Shi Hu saw through his plan and took the lead in killing Yan Qing, the governor of Qianzhou, and controlled Wucheng, the capital of Qianzhou. Then he deceived He Shikui in the name of Yan Qing, called him into Wucheng, captured him alive, and then returned to the camp outside the city to clear away the dissidents in the army, and captured more than 20 He Shikui's followers alive.
Shi Hu escorted He Shikui to Fengjing. After He Shikui arrived in Fengjing, he admitted that everything was done by him, in order to avenge revenge, seize military power, separatist the land, and be a local emperor.
Second, Shi Hu said that the situation in Qianzhou has stabilized and hopes that the court will send officials to take over the situation as soon as possible.
Third, Shi Hu strongly accused the Chenzhou Jiedushi Lu Siyao of taking advantage of the chaos in Qianzhou to plan annexation and behaved ill-behaved.
Lu Si wanted to write letters and criticize each other one after another, which immediately caused a lot of discussion. At the beginning, Shi Hu, the most suspected person, was thrown aside with He Shikui's escort to Fengjing and taking on all the actions. At least on the surface, Lu Siyao, who had no relationship or involvement, was strongly criticized by Shi Hu, saying that he had a ill-gotten plot and had the intention of annexing Qianzhou.
Afterwards, Zhao Xun took the matter in Qianzhou to the court for public discussion, and wanted to see the attitudes of civil and military officials. Unexpectedly, most officials supported Shi Hu about the matter in Qianzhou, but instead suspected Lu Si wanted.
