Four hundred and seventieth chapters dark dripping tears (4)
Chapter 472: The Tears of the Dragon Beads (IV)
After thinking for a while, I couldn't remember it, so Li Wei didn't want to, so he went back.
...
May is coming, and Jiangnan may be the time when the precocious plums are half red and half purple, which is tempting. The fresh plums are probably not visible in Luoyang, but Luoyang also has good things, and the world-famous peonies are blooming in full bloom.
There are also Shangyang Palace, which carry a lot of them, large buns, like brocade and weaving, beautiful and enchanting.
After walking out and watching the blooming of peonies for a while, Wu Zetian asked, "What's the movement of the prince this day?"
Somewhat unhappy, Honger changed to the prince.
Li Shoucheng replied: "Nothing else. At first, Wei Hongji visited the East Palace and pleaded with him. There were four new prime ministers who asked the prince to scold him. Then the prince went to the Sifang Pavilion and talked to the Western barbarians for a while. Then the little princess and the King of England went to the East Palace to visit the prince. There was nothing else."
"You keep sending people to watch."
Wu Zetian didn't believe that his son would be so honest when he led five hundred soldiers into the Eastern Palace.
Then he said, "At the time when the time comes, you will pass on my oral edict, and you will be very careful in the procuratorial work."
"Here!"
After a while, Cheng Wuting brought him up. Wu Zetian asked him to sit down without any tribute and said, "I have something unknown to me. I heard that you understand martial arts well. I want to ask you. Mr. Pei will go to the Western Regions soon and pacify the Western Regions, but only a few thousand soldiers and escort the Persian prince can pacify the Western Regions. Without saying anything else, I have always been worried about it. Do you know what kind of trick did Mr. Pei have?"
Because Li Wei's wings flapped, history has undergone some subtle changes.
First, Wang Fangyi built Shuye City, and then used the 40,000 Tang troops to go to Suzhou to fight back to Fuluochuan to dismantle the Western Turks, and asked Wang Fangyi to use some small means to capture Li Zhefu, the leader of the Western Turks rebel tribe, alive.
When he was taken to Suye City, Li Zhefu cried and wrote a letter to admit his mistake. In addition, the court always had a banish attitude towards this territory. Since he admitted it, the ten-rank khan Ashinaduzhi was still at large and afraid that Qinghai would appear, so he issued an edict to release Li Zhefu back.
But when this kid was released, he heard that the 40,000 troops were only targeting the Tuyuhun people in Qinghai, and he was still not honest and continued to hook up with Anastuchi.
Therefore, completely quelling these two traitors was put on the important agenda of the Tang Dynasty.
This is a test of Cheng Wuting. Cheng Wuting got notice in advance and knew that this was an opportunity. The man didn't want to make a name for himself. After thinking seriously for a while, he said, "The specific minister cannot know, but Mr. Pei will probably have the trick of trying to get to confuse the other party. Although he led a few soldiers, our dynasty won a great victory in Qinghai, and many Turkic tribes were convinced by our dynasty again. In fact, there were still many troops that could be mobilized. It was unexpected again, but he could quickly achieve success. As for how to conceal the other party and concentrate the forces of various tribes, I don't know."
It turned out to be this section.
It seemed to be good, and said again: "I want you to be Pei Qing's deputy, what do you think?"
"I am very willing, but my position..."
The position of General Zhonglang is not low, and he is from the fourth rank, but the general is promoted quickly. Although he is high, he is not as noble as a civil servant. Besides, there are two generals from the third rank and a general of the third rank, as well as a general of the third rank.
General Zuo Qianniu's Central Army can only control the Zhechong Mansion, which has three relative guards. As Pei Xingjian's deputy general, he is indeed not qualified.
Seeing Cheng Wuting's expression was about to stop, Wu Zetian said: "It's okay. There will be an edict tomorrow to be transferred to the General of the Right Leading Guard."
"Thank you, Queen," Cheng Wuting said happily and leaned on the ground.
"Don't thank you, I heard Pei Qing highly respect you. I also talked with the prince last night that the Tang Dynasty now lacks capable generals. I hope you can work hard and serve the court. The right-leading general of the guard is just the beginning. If you do well, the court will still use it in the future."
"I will definitely serve the queen, and I will be so sad."
"Okay, go," Wu Zetian watched him leave, his lips raised high, and a smile appeared.
She doesn't know much about the military, but she is not worse than others about how to use people. As long as Cheng Wuding's performance is not too disappointing, she can use Cheng Wuding to win more voices and strength for herself in the military.
...
The next day, Li Wei still didn't move.
Actually, it moved, but it was not under everyone's noses.
Zhu Jingze's trip was relatively smooth. Di Renjie arranged a large number of people and looked at him. As long as he sent officials to arrest and interrogate, there was no need to interrogate him. As long as he recorded his confession, he would complete the task. Of course, Zhu Jingze had just arrived at Dali Temple, with his eyes wide open. Besides, he was not very expert in investigating the case. It doesn't matter. Di Renjie stayed in Dali Temple for a long time, and his prestige was second only to Zhang Wenguan. There were many close friends in Dali Temple. Those people could use it, those people could not, and Di Renjie knew the truth, which was also prepared for Zhu Jingze.
Zhu Jingze was ridiculous when he saw this result.
But before the prince returned to Beijing, he began to take action.
The Luoyang and Chang'an did not move, and started with Shenzhou, Chuzhou and Yangzhou.
But he still needs some of Di Renjie's previous confidants to help.
Everything is carried out according to judicial procedures. The criminal prisons in various places start from the county level, and major cases are supervised and interrogated by state officials. If you are not convinced, you can appeal to the state level to sue. If you are not convinced, you will go to Dali Temple. Dali Temple is the last checkpoint. But if you are not convinced, you can sue the imperial court. Don’t take this seriously. It is often found in operas, but it is not often found in reality. Those who can sue the imperial court and succeed in ancient and modern times will not exceed fifty people. It is more than ten thousand times more difficult than winning the ** lottery.
However, in order to prevent misjudgment, some cases will also present the case and the process of trial to Dali Temple, which plays a supervisory role. In short, it is not perfected by later generations, but there is an original mechanism to constrain supervision, and try to give the people a fairness.
If you have questions about some cases, people can be sent to re-examine them. Even major cases can be directly bypassed by local governments.
So Liu Rengui tried every means to bring Zhu Jingze to the position of Shaoqing of Dali Temple for this right.
Di Renjie made arrangements in advance, bought some hidden houses in the three states, and dug some hidden cellars in the houses. Each of the prisoners who were to be interrogated and found out clearly when they went out. After the officials of Dali Temple arrived, they immediately arrested the criminals secretly and brought them to the cellar for interrogation. In order to make it difficult for local officials to detect them, they deliberately created some conflicts within a few months before that, causing local officials and the families of the prisoners to have misleading ideas.
The admission confession was presented to Luoyang with a fast horse.
However, these confessions will take some time to reach. Only after the confessions in the local area have been completed will the prisoners in the two capitals be captured. At that time, it is time to see the dagger appear!
It has already begun! It's just that the confession has not been sent back.
Therefore, Li Wei is still very quiet.
But I didn't expect that there were a few unexpected guests and asked to see each other carefully.
It was an envoy from Japan and was killed by the Sillas. When the Tang Dynasty wanted to seek justice, the Tang Dynasty ignored it. When he thought of his fate after he returned, he did not dare to go back. He heard that Prince Tang would fight again when he came back, so he came to look for opportunities to see if Prince Tang could take charge of them.
Well, I found the right person.
Li Wei showed great interest in these Japanese people.
He said to the eunuch: "Let them come in."
Three short middle-aged men came in. The leading middle-aged man knelt on the ground and said, "The beasts by the river meet the prince."
The Tang Dynasty said it quite smoothly.
Li Wei said: "Good name."
"Thank you the Prince's praise."
Li Wei wanted to laugh, held back, and said, "Why do you see an orphan?"
I have told you about the matter and help you Japanese seek justice. I am stupid. But this Japanese country is not easy to conquer. There are many people, many troops, and some crude civilizations. After defeating Liu Rengui, I was afraid that the Tang Dynasty would invade the Japanese mainland, so I dug three trenches on the mainland.
Besides, there is still a sea separation, and it is not very suitable for the interests of the Tang Dynasty to attack this small Japanese country now. On the contrary, it is taking countless risks.
I met them because I wanted to see the current slave of this Japanese man and to show off the anger of future generations.
After reading it, I also listened to it, and immediately replied: "I can't take charge of this matter."
The beast immediately fell down and cried. He was anxious and spoke Japanese dialect, but he couldn't understand it. But his expression was very sad. He suddenly remembered and changed to Tang Dynasty and said, "Your Highness, the Silla people are hateful, and they are also disrespectful to you Tang Dynasty."
This sentence talks deep in Li Wei's heart.
The Japanese are not good things, and *** are not good things either. In such a big country, relying on the support of Americans, it has not slapped the Chinese people in the face. This is not important, the most hateful thing is that they are shameless.
However, with the current national strength, it is unrealistic to attack Japan. It is also not worth fighting Silla.
But with a sudden inspiration, he said, "Beasts, please wait a moment. It is possible that in two or three months, I will give you a satisfactory answer."
"Thank you, Your Highness, Thank you, Prince Hall," the prince's turn around, made the beasts overjoyed, and kowtowed repeatedly. Then he said goodbye.
From beginning to end, Di Hui sat next to her husband, and she did not interrupt. But after leaving, she hugged Li Huang and said, "Your Highness, I have a word I want to say more."
"Tell me."
"Now that the Western Regions have not yet settled, Tubo will come to attack at any time and cannot send troops to Silla."
"Is it necessary to send troops to these Japanese?"
"That Your Highness means..."
"We don't need to send troops, but if two dogs give them a bone, they will bite the dog. We, the Tang Dynasty, are waiting to watch the show. This is also called fighting between snipes and clams, and the fisherman will benefit."
Without Silla, there would be no later ***. The entire Silla was taken down and the sea was used as the Great Wall. In the future, the enemy would not be able to find a springboard from the East China Sea and attack the inland of the Tang Dynasty. This was not only for the expansion of the Tang Dynasty, but also for the sake of generations.
"I understand. Your Highness wants to instigate Japan to attack Silla and make them both lose money." Wei Yue said.
"What is provocation? Improper wording."
Wei Yue giggled.
Then the wind was calm and a few days passed. The prince was only in the Eastern Palace. Unless he came to the door, he would not leave the palace for a second. Many ministers were relieved of their hearts. But it was still very strange. Because of the force of his son's five hundred armored soldiers, Li Zhi could not return to the palace.
I used to like living in Shangyang Palace, but suddenly I missed the palace. And I couldn’t go to the palace, so I couldn’t go to the morning court.
I was angry and fell ill again.
Chapter completed!
