Unparalleled Concubine

If you go to southern Xinjiang, life and death will be in the hands of the Marquis of Pingnan. If you don't obey, you will "suddenly fall ill and die". In this case, you can't expect anyone to be utterly loyal.

When Emperor Chengde sent him there, it was only with the attitude of giving it a try.

The emperor sat on the dragon chair, closed his eyes and meditated for a long time, and finally opened his eyes slowly.

"Chen Ju, what should I do if you tell me about this matter?"

Grandpa Chen frowned.

Originally in this situation, as long as Li Shen was sent back to southern Xinjiang, the rebellion in southern Xinjiang would subside within three months, but Chen Ju had been with the emperor for so many years, so he naturally knew that his master didn't like to hear about it now, so this The eunuch bowed his head and said softly: "Your Majesty, you don't want Marquis Pingnan to leave Beijing?"

Emperor Chengde snorted: "Do I have a choice? If I don't send him, the rebellion in southern Xinjiang will intensify. The imperial court recognizes that every general who goes to southern Xinjiang will be sent to death. There is no way to control the Pingnan Army."

The big eunuch rolled his eyes, and suddenly his heart moved.

"Your Majesty, this old slave has an idea..."

Chapter 106 I Disgusted Him Too

"Speak straight."

Emperor Chengde frowned: "If you keep trying, I'll let you see the imperial mausoleum."

Chen Ju wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, the young master of the Pingnan Hou Mansion will be 20 years old after the Chinese New Year..."

"What do you mean?"

Chen Ju bowed his head and said, "Your Majesty can let this little Marquis go out of the capital to fight the rebellion instead of Li Shen. They are all from the Li family. It is impossible for the Pingnan Army not to agree. In this way, Pingnanhou will have no excuse to leave the capital."

Emperor Chengde's heart moved, and then he shook his head: "No, Li Chun's leg was broken by his father a few days ago, and he is still lying on the bed. Besides, as long as the Li family goes to southern Xinjiang, this rebellion will definitely subside. , when the time comes, I have no choice but to add officials to Li Chun, and the Li family has a general from the Zhu Kingdom, which is enough to keep me away, and I don't want the Li family to have a second Zhu Kingdom."

Not long after Li Shen took over as Marquis of Pingnan, he captured King Min of Li Ni's royal family back to Beijing in southern Xinjiang. This kind of overwhelming credit cannot be concealed. The Chengde emperor who had not been enthroned for a long time at that time could only pinch The nose made Li Shen a general of the Zhu Kingdom.

In fact, no matter what official is appointed, the Li family is in charge of the Pingnan Army, and there is no change in the essential power, but the rank of General Zhu Guo is higher than that of the Minister of the Ministry of War, which directly leads to the fact that the Ministry of War has no right to control the Pingnan Army. The orders of the Pingnan Army can only be issued through the imperial decree, but it is not easy for the emperor of Chengde to tear his face openly with Li Shen, so he said that he was "separated".

Chen Ju said in a low voice: "But the young master of Pingnanhou's mansion is far worse than his father. If Li Shen can be kept in the capital, let this young master come out of the capital to take charge of the army." , then the Pingnan Army will be much easier to deal with."

Chen Ju is the head of the Eight Supervisors in the inner court, and he also has the right to read the news of the Tianmu Supervisor, and the Tianmu Supervisor is responsible for supervising the capital and all officials, so Chen Ju is quite familiar with these "second generations" in the capital.

In the opinion of this great eunuch, the young master of the Pingnan Hou's mansion is unworthy.

Emperor Chengde pondered for a moment, but finally shook his head.

"Li Shen will refuse."

Having been together for decades, he knows too well the "Fa Xiao" who grew up together.

The emperor said in a deep voice: "If Li Chun is forced to go, Li Shen may break his son's leg again, and even complain that he is sick and refuse to go to southern Xinjiang, making matters in southern Xinjiang worse."

Having said that, Emperor Chengde gritted his teeth: "The reason why Li Shen is so difficult is because without him, I really have no way to deal with southern Xinjiang."

In fact, what he said was modest. The Pingnan Army in southern Xinjiang has a strength of 10. Even if they hide some, they won't hide too much. It's only 15.

Because the extra part of the establishment needs to be supported by the Marquis of Pingnan, the Li family cannot support too many soldiers.

15 people, plus the rebel party in southern Xinjiang, the total is only more than 20. If the Chengde emperor can really be determined to fight a national war, with the strength of the Jin Dynasty, it can be directly flattened.

But the price to pay is too high.

At least for now, Dajin is not ready to bear the price.

In the end, His Majesty the Emperor sighed quietly.

"Forget it, let Li Shen go."

The eunuch, Chen Ju, bent slightly: "Your Majesty, maybe you can send that young man to southern Xinjiang as well."

"Which young man?"

As the emperor, he didn't know how many people he had to meet and how many things he had to deal with in a day. The emperor of Chengde had seen too many young people, so it was impossible to keep Li Xin in his heart all the time.

"Li Xin."

Chen Ju bowed his head and said, "It's Li Xin who was placed by His Majesty at the Ninth Princess's Mansion as a personal guard. This time, he can follow Ping Nanhou to Nanjiang to have a look and see what's going on in Nanjiang. In the future, His Majesty When you really need him, he won't lose his eyes."

"I remembered."

Emperor Chengde narrowed his eyes and chuckled: "I remember that he had a very unpleasant quarrel with Li Shen, so he was also sent to southern Xinjiang. Li Shen might find a chance to kill him."

"Not too possible."

Chen Ju shook his head slightly: "Ping Nanhou is a cautious person, and it is unlikely that he will attack Li Xin directly. If His Majesty catches him, the most he can do is send Li Xin to the battlefield and let those Li Ni's rebels attack. Your Majesty Send some good men to follow him, just don't put him in danger."

Speaking of this, Chen Ju paused, and then continued: "Besides, Li Xin is his son after all, and a tiger's poison does not eat its own son... According to this old slave, nothing will happen to him."

"Then do it."

Emperor Chengde was in a much better mood, he laughed and said, "Li Shen has disgusted me so many times, what kind of official do you think I should give Li Envelope to disgust Li Shen?"

The eunuch Chen Ju chuckled.

"Supervisor."

Emperor Chengde frowned.

"too big."

The eunuch bowed his head and said, "Then just be the military envoy."

In the military system of the Jin Dynasty, the duty of the supervising army is to supervise the military. Although he has no right to intervene in military affairs, he has the right to know all the military affairs, and he is at the same level as the chief general. Li Xin is now a captain of Habayashi Guard, but he is only a seventh-rank , and Li Shen, the general of the Zhu Kingdom, is already a general of the first rank, and it is obviously impossible for the two to be equal.

But the military supervising envoy is different. Generally speaking, the military supervising envoy is just a person sent by the court to record the war. sent to the emperor's desk, which made this position very critical.

With Li Xin's current position as a school lieutenant, it is absolutely no problem to go to the army to be a supervising envoy.

Emperor Chengde clapped his hands and smiled: "You are good, Chen Ju, you have a bright head."

Chen Ju bowed respectfully: "After following His Majesty for a long time, I naturally learned something from His Majesty."

Emperor Chengde was in a good mood, and said with a smile: "Then let's do this. You go to the Ministry of War and ask them to prepare the corresponding documents, and then plan to let Li Shen go to southern Xinjiang to suppress the rebellion."

"Old slave obeys the order."

Emperor Chengde glanced at Chen Ju, and said calmly: "But one thing is agreed, this Li Xin is Xiao Jiu's sweetheart, if he dies in southern Xinjiang, and Xiao Jiu comes to look for me, I will shirk it on your head gone."

Chen Ju lowered his head and smiled wryly: "At that time, the old slave will naturally shoulder the burden..."

Emperor Chengde laughed heartily.
