0460 The general is dead, humming in place(1/2)

After the Dai King entered the Xuanwu Gate, Wu Youning appeared from the other side, looking at the Dai King's back as he gradually moved away, his expression was solemn.

King Wu Sansi of Liang was vigilant and targeted against King Dai, and there were some paranoids in it, but Wu Youning worked with King Dai in the Northern Yai and felt much more direct in his feelings about King Dai.

Previously, he wanted to resolve the military power of Dai Wang through Xue Huaiyi's expedition, but failed because Dai Wang deliberately delayed the time of his return to the capital. After the Suyue Army returned to the capital, it temporarily stationed at the foot of Beimang Mountain, becoming a force independent of the Beiya military system.

Although two thousand Northern Ya soldiers have returned to their original ranks, they are different from before. The most intuitive feeling is that the commanders in the ranks have undergone a very thorough change.

Wu Youning was naturally quite wary of this point and felt embarrassed about what to do.

The safest way is to isolate these soldiers, conduct a relatively strict and meticulous examination, and gradually incorporate them into the guard system of the Northern Yai, so that the operations of the Dai Wang can be washed away to a great extent.

But in this way, there will be a certain crack in the Northern Yamen. The three thousand new recruits are just going to be defeated. They are already newly established troops, and it is still doubtful whether they should be assigned to the Southern Yamen or the Northern Yamen after the operation. Of course, it is impossible to directly incorporate them into the Guard system.

However, the two thousand soldiers from the Northern Yamen have made achievements and no mistakes during this tour of Susan Mountain. After returning to the capital, they would have to undergo various investigations because Wu Youning was suspicious and suspicious, so they would inevitably feel resentful. The two battalions of soldiers from the left and right Yulin Army were just overwhelmed. The left and right Yulin Army was already huge in size, and even if there was any resentment, it would not cause too much problem.

But this time, the Thousand Cavalry sent a thousand troops, which has accounted for one-third of the Thousand Cavalry's military strength. If it is not handled properly, it will definitely have an extremely negative impact on the Thousand Cavalry's military.

Of course, the most important thing is that in the current Beiya, Wu Youning's right to speak is really not high. As the emperor's closest emperor, the Holy Emperor naturally has the highest intentions.

Next were the two generals of the guards. Originally, Wu Youning also had Qianqi, in addition to the Right Yulin, to defeat the Zuo Yulin, Kuo Chongyu. However, after the Dai King divided the Qianqi, it caused great damage to Wu Youning's authority and prestige. Especially in the early conflicts within the Xuanwu Gate, Dai Wang chopped Xue Huaiyi's disciples, which made Wu Youning complain about him in the Right Yulin.

Moreover, after King Liang entered the Political Affairs Hall, His Majesty the Holy Emperor was also deliberately weakening Wu Youning's guards. Now the Xuanwu Gate is on duty, and Zuo Yulin is gradually becoming the main one.

I originally thought that replacing the king was a good opportunity to reshape my prestige, but Deng Longsui of Qianqi performed his duties in the camp, which made Wu Youning not have any excuses to take advantage of the situation and return to the Qianqi's power and blessings again.

Even the palace prison left by King Dai interfered in the affairs of Youyulin. When Wu Youning thought that Xue Chongxun, the little baby who didn't know anything, actually went to the Feiqi camp to make trouble, he felt very depressed.

By seniority, Wu Youning is also the kid's uncle, but this kid has no respect for him and only receives his salary. Before the Grand Supervisor's departure, he would give a heavy advice, how could he lose his personal affairs? He would go to the Feiqi Camp every day to check whether the horse was thin.

Wu Youwang, the young supervisor in the hall, is also a person who cannot be counted on. In recent months, he has been circling around Master Wei, collecting various alchemy materials, which is very exciting, and does not supervise Shang Chengji's affairs at all.

Wu Youning even had the idea of ​​asking King Ding Wu Youji to join the palace to serve, but was blocked by Wu Youji's words "father and son are different from the yamen", as if they really treated him as if they were close to me.

This time, the soldiers of the former North Ya returned to the guards. It was proposed by General Tuo Chongyu, the Zuo Yulin, who did not even discuss with him in advance. When Wu Youning learned about this, the palace envoy had already entered the camp to convey the order of His Majesty the Holy Emperor, and he led the soldiers of the Right Yulin Camp back to the city. As for Qianqi, he did not even notify him of the notice.

In fact, there is more than one way to solve the problem. The more direct method is to directly solve the people who created the problem. The Dai Wang must have had many illegal operations this time. Wu Youning even suspected that the Lingnan envoy sent someone to intercept and kill him the last time, creating an excuse to delay the return of the capital.

Wu Youning not only doubted this way, but also sent someone to write to him who were placed in the army, including Anping King Wu Youxu. As a result, Anping King was directly taken back by a prison cart. In the second half of the Suyue Army's external patrol, he completely lost the balance of the Dai King.

However, this is also one of the evidences of the Dai King. Although the marching chief executive has a high power, he has never had the power to deal with a deputy chief executive so casually. Wu Youning also seized this point and wrote a few times to report the matter. Originally, His Majesty the Holy Emperor also expressed his opinion that he would hold the Dai King accountable, but after the Dai King returned to the capital to meet the saint, the signs were completely gone.

Wu Youning felt that His Majesty the Holy Emperor was too fond of King Dai, and he was too indulgent. King Dai was definitely not a person who was scheming and was at ease. Without a large picture, how could he have caused the marching of Songyang Road and used it to build people.

Such an obvious thing was not pursued by His Majesty the Holy Emperor, and even allowed him to enter and exit the ban freely after the King of Dai returned to the capital.

Although the King of Liang of the Foreign Court had already initially integrated the voices of the people in the Political Affairs Hall and wanted to suppress the King of Dai, as long as the King of Dai still took charge of the military affairs of the Northern Yamen and walked around Xuanwu Gate, Wu Youning would feel a sense of crisis of being thorny on his back and restless in sleeping and eating.

Thinking of this, Wu Youning walked towards Guo Da, the Yuan Qianqi, who had just been summoned to the Right Yulin and was given the title of Guoyi, and patted him on the shoulder and said in a deep voice: "Young King of Dai is successful and will inevitably be arrogant and lose in the minor matters. But since Guo Guoyi, you have entered the Yulin, you don't need to be too afraid and stay in your post. If you are troubled again, someone will make a name for you!"

After hearing this, Guo Da crawled on the ground, lowered his head and said in a deep voice: "Thank you, the king for protecting his humble position, rewarding his humble position. He must be brave enough to repay the king!"

Wu Youning was quite satisfied with Guo Da's attitude, but he still frowned and scolded: "The only thing that needs to sacrifice one's life to repay is His Majesty the Holy Emperor. I am willing to appreciate and support you, and I am also willing to see that you are loyal and brave, and you should not suffer unfair difficulties! Remember not to do this again in the future. If you have any intentions, keep it in your heart."

Guo Da lies on the ground, knocks on his forehead and then retreats to one side.

The reason why Wu Youning promoted Guo Da was because of a cause and effect. His eyes and ears and ears were originally placed in the Suyue Army, but he was constantly rejected and cleaned by the Dai King during the march. Now several people have been imprisoned in the camp at the foot of Beimang Mountain on different charges. Before the court officially decided on the ownership of the Suyue Army, Wu Youning could not bring up people.

As for Guo Da, he was also an old soldier of Qianqi, and Wu Youning still had a little impression of him, but he was led by Yulin and Qianqi at that time, so there was no need to condescend too much to pay attention to a mere brigade coach.

During this marching of Suyue Army, Guo Da showed his courage and even led his team to eliminate bee thieves several times. He was once valued by the King of Dai and was even promoted to replace Wu Youning's eyes and ears and ears among the thousand cavalry.

However, Guo Da was too stupid and did not understand the temperament of the Tian family playboy, and soon offended the Dai King. The reason was that after the Dai King sent King Anping to escort the envoy to Lingnan along the way and was rejected, when the two sides had a dispute, Guo Da actually volunteered to take on the responsibility.

Wu Youning also understood the thoughts of these lower-level soldiers. They did not have much room for improvement. Once they seized the opportunity, they would seek performance. Or because of their bravery, they thought they would become the confidant of the King of Dai, so they would forget themselves and lose their composure and not miss any opportunity to perform.

How could King Dai and King Anping compete for military power, so how could he show mercy to this mere corporal? So while taking advantage of the situation and detaining King Anping, he also took Guo Da to the end and demoted him to the camp. He even arranged for him to drive the King Anping prison car to return to the capital. This is indeed in line with King Dai's usual style and has done the disgusting people to the extreme.

After Wu Youxu returned to the capital, he would naturally not be detained in the camp, so that the King of Dai would slap them in the face of the Wu kings.

Therefore, Wu Youning entered the camp as soon as possible and led Wu Youxu out. It was because Wu Youxu was grateful to Guo Da for taking care of him along the way, and was worried that he might continue to be retaliated against and suppressed by the King of Dai, so he recommended Wu Youning a lot.

Wu Youning didn't care about the life or death of a soldier in the camp, but the actions of King Dai were really disgusting.

Wu Youning simply promoted Guo Da to the Right Yulin and specially arranged it to be seen by the King of Dai at Xuanwu Gate. One was to respond to the King of Dai, and the other was to say that if the King of Dai could not bear it and continue to target Guo Da, it could also be an opportunity to reprimand the many violations of the King of Dai's march this time.

Now it seems that the effect is pretty good.

Previously, when the Dai King entered and left Xuanwu Gate, he always had to stay in front of the city gate for a while and looked around, but this time he didn't stop and just entered Xuanwu Gate directly. It was obviously Guo Da who made him feel offended. Wu Youning also expected that the Dai King could not help but attack, and then he would report more detailed information to the ban, and strive to solve the military power of the Dai King's Beiya in one fell swoop.

Not to mention the plots in Wu Youning's mind, Li Tong stayed in the forbidden most of the time after returning to the capital, and sang and enjoyed the fun and entertainment with his family, as if he did not care about foreign affairs and cherished the time he spent with his family.

After a few more days, he seemed to suddenly remember that he was still in charge of the palace, and then he took time to go to the palace to reflect on the palace.

When he learned that the King of Dai had entered the province, Wu You, the young supervisor, looked at him in a hurry and looked embarrassed. He looked at the thief on the spot. He stepped forward and explained carefully: "Ministry did not intend to violate the affairs arrangements of the Grand Supervisor's departure from the capital. It was just that the yamen affairs had accumulated for a long time, and Master Wei wanted to frequently receive supplies from Shang Pharmacy Bureau.Ministry had to..."

Seeing Wu Youwang's nervous look with sweat on his face, Li Tong couldn't help but feel happy.

The kings of the Wu clan hate it, but except for a few extremely high-level people who dare to stare at him in person, most of them still have to maintain superficial respect for him. They are relatives who are worthy of face, and they really have no confidence in being arrogant when facing him, the killer of the sect king.

He was too lazy to pay attention to Wu Youwang, so he waved his hand to let him do his own work, and he slowly walked into the hall.

When he learned that King Dai had entered the hall, Xue Chongxun, his cousin and son-in-law, came up happily and said, "I was about to go to the Northern Yamen to inspect the stables. Do the Grand Prix have any instructions?"

Li Tong has heard from him talk about what Xue Chongxun has done during this period a few days ago. He appreciates this kid's style of killing his relatives for justice. Those who want to achieve great things should have such noble character.

He called Xue Chongxun to the nearby seat, carefully explained some details about finding faults, and then waved his hand to let the kid go.

After sending Xue Chongxun away, Li Tong read the recent affairs of the Palace and the Provincial Department, especially Shang Pharmaceutical Bureau, among which the most things happened. Wei Shifang's master is now worshipping the inner temple of the Banzhong. He simply burns the medicine warehouse of Shang Pharmaceutical Bureau as firewood. Regardless of whether he has refined a elixir to prolong his life, this enthusiasm is really touching.

In this way, Li Tong didn't have to make any excuses. He ordered Shu Lingshi to bring the relevant books of Shang Pharmaceutical Bureau to the hall and summon the imperial physician Chen Nanyu.

Of course, he was not interested in the details of the sage alchemy, but wanted to find evidence for a guess in his mind. When the Shang Pharmacy Bureau was recently moved here, he took a look at other contents and began to focus on reading the records of Shang Pharmacy's visit.

The medical institutions of the State Dynasty were quite sound. The Taichang Temple of the Outer Dynasty had the Imperial Medical Office, which was also clinical, management and training. The Palace was the Shang Pharmaceutical Bureau, which was mainly aimed at the banned emperors and all the wives of the inner dynasties. There was also the Medicines Bureau of the East Palace, which was specially used for the prince.

In addition to targeting the ban, some ministers trusted or guarded by the emperor were also the targets of their visits. After all, the health of the ministers was also the information that the emperor should know, and they could also show their favor. After a night of sleep, the prime minister suddenly died, which was quite blind. For example, Li Tong had seen Chen Nanyu at Yang Zhirou's mansion earlier.

The Shang Pharmaceutical Bureau provides medical records for the past six months. If you want to retrieve them further, it is not possible for the prison in the palace to decide. It requires signing by everyone in the province, and sometimes even the emperor's orders are needed. However, this period of time is enough for Li Tong.

Chen Nanyu was not straightforward today, and he had an introspective official going out to look for it.

During this period of time, Li Tong reviewed the visit records in detail and found that in the past six months alone, Shang Pharmaceutical Bureau had visited the King of Wei for more than a dozen times, and it was mainly concentrated during the period when the King of Wei was checking in Weiguo Temple. Li Tong was also very happy about this, and at the same time, he was a little regretful. Why didn't you, the old boy, feel so frustrated, and you have to waste your energy and manpower.

Wu Chengsi's health is not the focus of Li Tong. Anyway, if things go smoothly, this old guy will have a few days to make trouble. After reading a few volumes in succession, he finally found the content he was interested in. In early April this year, Shang Pharmaceutical Bureau once visited the Jiaohe County Prince Tuo Chongyu Mansion!

However, seeing the subsequent visit content, Li Tong couldn't help but frown again. The target of Shang Pharmaceutical Bureau's visit was Princess Jiaohe, not Jiaohe himself. This inevitably was a bit inconsistent with Li Tong's guess, so he continued to read it forward, but after looking through the visit records for the past six months, no relevant matters were found.

After reading these files, Li Tong's brows were already frowning. Whether his guess was true was of great importance to his next plan. Originally, many clues were connected, and he felt very sure, but in the files of Shang Pharmaceutical Bureau, he did not find the answer he wanted, which inevitably made him doubt his judgment.

After a while, Chen Nanyu, who was sweating, rushed into the hall and said, "I am not introspective today. I am ordered by Your Highness to take advantage of this leisure time to edit medical books at the Imperial Medical Office. I have to wait for a long time. Please..."

"No need to be polite, I am also having fun at the moment. I want to find Dr. Chen, you ask some personal questions. Since getting married, my relationship with the princess has been harmonious, but there is no news. My parents will inevitably care and urge you, so..."

When he heard His Highness Dai Wang talk about such a private issue, the rest of the Yatang quit and stood considerately under the outer hall corridor, not allowing idle people to enter the hall at this time.

Chen Nanyu heard this question without doubting him. He pondered for a while before speaking: "Your Highness should not be worried about this matter. Your Highness is young and not yet crowned, so it is still a short time to get along with the princess..."

Li Tong suddenly raised his hand and signaled Chen Nanyu to move closer. He suddenly grabbed his wrist and whispered: "The King of Jiaohe has evil deeds. How dare you cover up this matter when you wait for the imperial doctor!"

"Why... no, no, Your Highness misunderstood, how dare you be a low-ranking position... Yes, it is to prohibit the central palace officials from entering the province, take away the relevant matters of the King of He, and ask that the subsequent registration is not allowed..."

When Chen Nanyu heard this question, he couldn't help but be frightened and replied subconsciously.

It's true!

Li Tong couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief from Chen Nanyu's eyes, but he looked at Chen Nanyu with a gentle look, but his tone was still serious: "I'll ask you about the matter between the King of He, and you are not allowed to leak it!"

At this moment, Chen Nanyu had already had a fine cold sweat on his forehead. After hearing this, he nodded repeatedly and said, "I dare not speak out, so I will never give up!"

When Li Tong heard this, he smiled slightly, pulled Chen Nanyu and asked him to sit on his side, and continued to ask: "If you talk carefully, what is the situation of Jiaohe King?"

Chen Nanyu was deceived and said something wrong by the King of Dai. At this moment, he was a little confused. In addition, after entering the province, he felt that there was no need to hide it. So he said: "In April, King of Jiaohe had signs of wind disease. When the Fashion Pharmacy came to the clinic, he only used medicine and food supplements to treat it. He hoped that it would be mild, but the situation was not optimistic..."

Li Tong listened carefully to Chen Nanyu's story and compared it with his own guesses one by one, and inevitably had a more thorough understanding of Tuo Chongyu's current state.

He didn't have much contact with Tuo Chongyu, the general of the Northern Yaya. He had some official exchanges, but had almost no private contact. What impressed him was that Tuo Chongyu's fragrance smelled very strong and became stronger over time.

At first he thought that the Gaochang general was meticulous and wanted to cover up the fishy smell on his body. Now it seems that it is to suppress the smell of medicine taken daily and thus conceal his own illness.

The main reason why Li Tong made such a judgment was that Tuo Chongyu changed his attitude towards him.

Originally, General Gaochang was the confidant of his grandmother and was in charge of the military power of the Northern Yaya. His attitude towards him was a little lukewarm. Of course, Li Tong was not dissatisfied with this. If his relationship with Tuo Chongyu was too harmonious, his grandmother would inevitably be suspicious and would not be able to do so.

However, after the conflict broke out with Xue Huaiyi at Xuanwu Gate that night, Tuo Chongyu's attitude towards Li Tong changed significantly, which was quite a bit like he wanted to speak but stopped.

At that time, Li Tong was already a little suspicious, but mainly felt that it was because Xue Huaiyi was hated too much, and his main energy was still working on Qianqi, so he didn't think about it deeper.

The real problem of Li Tong facing the change in Tuo Chongyu's attitude was the Songyang Road march this time. Since both the Yulin Army on both sides had to send troops, the degree of cooperation between the two sides was completely different.

Although the Youyulin under Wu Youning's control is not all the old, weak, sick and disabled, they are all crooked and stuffed in, and the intention of pulling the hind legs is very obvious.

During the subsequent marching, this became Li Tong's main means to deal with Wu Youning's ears. He would let anyone dislike him and manage the soldiers of the Youyulin battalion. During the marching, he almost committed all kinds of mistakes, and his performance was even worse than that of the newly recruited Heluo athletes. He not only provided Li Tong with a living teaching material on the camp, but also allowed him to use this to eliminate the Suyue Army and replace it.

But in contrast, Zuo Yulin's army had elite soldiers and strong generals. In some mountainous battles, which were inconvenient for thousands of cavalry to carry out, Zuo Yulin's soldiers were the real main force, extinguishing the mighty and style. It was precisely because of Zuo Yulin, a positive example, and the efforts of Changshi Su Weitao and other efforts that the Heluo athletes were gradually brought out and made steady progress.

More importantly, because Li Tong had a long friendship with the Goguryeo survivors, he made a small request to Tuo Chongyu before the march, hoping to choose a Goguryeo general to travel with the army. Tuo Chongyu also selected Gao Zhicong, who was from the Goguryeo royal family, to accompany the army, which also provided great help to Li Tong.

Tuo Chongyu's statements have far exceeded the favorable feelings that arise simply because of Xue Huaiyi. Li Tong indirectly touched the contact with Gao Zhicong and learned a lot of details about Tuo Chongyu, such as the Jiaohe King has not eaten in the camp recently, has less horse riding, and no longer has riding and shooting training during training.

Of course, there are various reasons for a person's habits to change, but combined with the change in Tuo Chongyu's own position and attitude, Li Tong boldly came up with a guess that Tuo Chongyu encountered some direct threats and had to consider the problem of retreat. After eliminating the biggest factor of the rise and fall of the Holy Family, the biggest possibility is that his personal health has problems, so Li Tong came to the Palace and the Province to verify today.

The foreign generals have certain special characteristics in the two yamen. They seem to have a high position and are actually in danger. Former General Jun Quan Xiancheng is an obvious example.

Tuo Chongyu's holy relatives were far more than Quan Xiancheng. It can be said that they were among the few generals in the court who could believe in Wu Zetian. Before Li Tong entered the Northern Yai, he took on the task of decentralizing the Northern Yai.
To be continued...
