Chapter 932 The overall situation

"Not nice, then don't say it."

"I am a slave, how dare I be careless about what the emperor has assigned?"

Li Xun said: "The thing has happened. Since it cannot be recovered, what's the use of saying it?"

He Shuping nodded: "What Li Xiangguo said makes sense, I know what to do."

Li Xun glanced at him and said indifferently: "Eunuch He, do you have something to say to me?"

Li Xun saw that there must be some reason why He Shuping stayed here and refused to leave. Maybe he had something to say to him.

He Shuping hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Xie Shiyuan said something in front of the emperor, which may be detrimental to Li Xiangguo."

"What is the emperor's attitude?"

Xie Shiyuan slandered himself in front of the emperor. Li Xun had actually been mentally prepared for this. If he killed his nephew, how could Xie Shiyuan give up?

He Shuping said: "In front of Xie Shiyuan and others, the emperor has been saying good things for Li Xiangguo. The emperor has no blame for what Li Xiangguo did."

Zhao Xun's attitude Li Xun had long guessed that as long as he did things well and killed a few corrupt officials, Zhao Xun would not care at all. He was afraid that things would not be done well and offended people again, and finally made things messy. If so, Zhao Xun would definitely not give Li Xun a good look. As the emperor, all he wanted was the result. As for the process, it was actually not very important.

Then, He Shuping talked about some things inside and outside the palace. Li Xun knew some things, but Li Xun didn't know some things. Of course, it was not very important. However, one thing caused Li Xun to ponder, that was, he killed Xie Zhicheng. After Xie Shiyuan slandered the emperor several times, You Min took the child back to his parents' home, which seemed to have been treated coldly. A few days later, he went to the palace to pay tribute to the Queen Mother Li Yi. He Shuping, who was standing outside, heard some words and heard You Min crying.

Li Xun remained silent. Since he had done some things, he would not regret it. If he was afraid of this and that, he would not accept this task at all. Is it uncomfortable to stay in Fengjing for a long time?

He Shuping said so much, obviously he wanted to get close to Li Xun. He knew that Li Xun had a very good relationship with Li Leping, the chief executive, and if he could have a good relationship with Li Xun, his weight in his godfather's heart would definitely increase a lot.

Two days later, Li Xun arrived in Chenzhou.

Li Xun just arrived first, and there were thousands of people behind him, escorting one million taels of silver and two hundred thousand dan grains. He walked slowly and it would take three days to arrive in Chenzhou.

This batch of money and grain was asked by Li Xun to Shen Fun.

Li Xun has written to the court, hoping to reduce taxes in Hongzhou and other seven states, and to embezzle taxes in advance to reward the three armies.

Li Xun could not go to Chenzhou naked and fight in wars. He fought for life and did not use actual things. They care whether you are a prime minister or something, and they would not give you a good look. Li Xun has also led troops for many years, so the reason is naturally very clear.

After arriving in Chenzhou, Li Xun did not enter Jiayan City directly, but went to the military camp outside the city first.

Li Xun soon met Yan Yi, and they were naturally very happy to meet each other.

The two sat down to each other, and Li Xun asked, "You are the only one in the military camp? Where are the other generals?"

Yan Yi said: "The main generals are in the military camp..."

Yan Yi talked about the situation here, and the main generals such as Kou Xiong, Sima Zhong, and Huang Hui were all in the military camp.

Li Xun said: "In this way, Zhao Baian and the others are all in the city now."

When talking about Zhao Baian, Yan Yi's original smile suddenly became gloomy. He snorted coldly: "He is the commander-in-chief and the prince, so he naturally lives in the city. In his eyes, we are nothing to do with it."

Li Xun glanced at Yan Yi and said nothing.

It seems that Zhao Baian and other generals from Jiangnan are now all in the city, while Yan Yi, Kou Xiong, Huang Hui and other generals from the imperial guards live in the military camp outside the city. The two sides are really clearly separated.

Li Xun said to Bi Xiangzu beside him: "Let Huang Hui, Sima Zhong, Kou Xiong and others find this place, I have something to tell them."

"Yes, sir."

Bi Xiangzu turned around and left.

Yan Yi said: "Li Xun, the imperial court has already come to an order?"

Li Xun nodded: "The emperor has indeed issued an order. I came here this time to convey the emperor's imperial edict."

Yan Yi said in a deep voice: "What does the emperor mean?"

Li Xun did not conceal Yan Yi, and gave him a rough explanation of the contents of the imperial edict.

Sure enough, after hearing Li Xun's words, Yan Yi was furious and slapped the table, shouting: "Who did he kill so many people? Zhao Baian didn't have any trouble at all, but got so many benefits. Could it be that the emperor was confused?"

Li Xun's face suddenly changed drastically, and he raised his foot and kicked Yan Yi to the ground: "Shut up your stinky mouth."

After saying that, Li Xun winked at a personal guard beside him. The latter understood the meaning and hurriedly ran out to look at it. Then he shook his head at Li Xun, indicating that there was no one else beside him. Yan Yi's words just now did not spread.

Seeing this, Li Xun breathed a sigh of relief, stepped forward and pulled Yan Yi up, and whispered: "You guy is so confused? Are you looking for death if you insult the emperor?"

Yan Yi patted the dust on his body and smiled bitterly: "I was a little excited just now and said nothing, no one should have heard of it, right?"

Li Xun said in a deep voice: "You kid is also a general now. Why is your temperament still so irritable? If you don't have to be laughed at if you spread it?"

Yan Yi laughed and said, "Isn't this no outsiders? I'm too relaxed, don't mind."

As he said that, Yan Yi pulled Li Xun down and said, "The veteran General Sima Zhong is diligent and fair in his work. Everyone admires it very much. The Chenzhou massacre has nothing to do with him. How can he put all the blame on him? Li Xun, you may have time to write a memorial and plead for Sima Zhong."

Li Xun shook his head: "I have worked with Sima Zhong for several years. If something happened to him, do you think I don't want to help? The emperor's order cannot be violated, it is not something you and I can control."

In fact, the punishment for Sima Zhong seemed to be very heavy, but in fact he did not do anything to him. In terms of this result, it was already very good. If you continue to do it, it might make things worse.

Yan Yi gritted his teeth and said, "I really can't understand why Zhao Baian has committed such a big deal, so why does the court still spoil him?"

"For the overall situation."
