How to Raid the Queen

When Jing Wenhao brought Lieutenant General Li back, it could be regarded as his first step in rectifying the barracks.He had drawn up the decree a long time ago, and only waited for it to be read out when he went to court the next day.

On the morning of the second day, Jing Wenhao rarely stayed in bed and didn't want to get up. Thinking of meeting those pedantic veterans and old forces from all sides again today, he felt a little headache, and then looked at the sleeping man in his arms. The appearance of peace of mind, I don't even want to wake up.

An Fuquan saw that the time passed quickly, but the emperor did not get up for a long time, and he was very anxious at the bedside, but Jing Wenhao gave an order, and he was not allowed to disturb Li Xi when he was sleeping. , but he dared not step forward to urge him again.Fortunately, Jing Wenhao got up at the last moment, and when he got out of bed, he saw An Fuquan's crying face.

"Come on, it's not like I won't go to court, what kind of expression did you have at that time?" Jing Wenhao shook his head, let the maid help him put on his shoes, and then got up and asked to clean up.

An Fuquan murmured in a low voice: "The servant dares not show any expression, it is because he is afraid that the emperor suddenly does not want to go to court, and the palace people will not have time to inform him."

Jing Wenhao wiped his face, and told Zhiling: "Today, I ordered the kitchen to make some light food for the queen, so that it should not be too hot. Yesterday he went to the street to eat hot food, and the corners of his mouth were blistered." Now, don’t be too irritating, he is afraid of pain. And let’s go to the Tai Hospital, all of them will come over today for a consultation to see if there is any change in the pulse condition compared to last time. Those who were sent in a few days ago The diet prescriptions are also shown to the imperial physicians, and if they can be used, they will be sent to the small kitchen. Then go and talk to them, change the patterns more frequently, and you have to remember those you like."

Faced with so many orders from Jing Wenhao early in the morning, Zhi Ling could only bless her body and said: "This servant understands."

Jing Wenhao felt at ease when Zhi Ling did things, and she walked out quickly after thinking that she had nothing to explain.

Jing Wenhao's walking chariot walked very fast today, and finally arrived at the main hall before the bell in the temple in the city rang, and maintained his usual stern aura.

"The Emperor Sheng'an." The officials knelt and bowed their heads.

"Stay flat." Jing Wenhao sat on the dragon chair, stabilized his tone, and said, "Do you have something to do today?"

"Master, please play." As soon as Jing Wenhao finished speaking, Li Yong stood up with two notebooks in his hand.

"What's Ai Qing talking about?" Jing Wenhao and Li Yong are now more and more in tune with each other in the court, and they are often able to raise issues and come up with a plan when the officials have not reacted. Yes, although there will always be a group of veterans who will come to make trouble afterwards.

"Qizou Your Majesty, since I took over the position of Minister of the Ministry of War, I have discovered that the documents of the Ministry of War are not complete. Even the accounting books, income and expenditure, and personnel management books are incomplete. It happened that there was a leak in the library of the Ministry of War a few days ago. So they asked people to move out all the notebooks, and only after sorting out did they find that there was a big problem in our army."

"Oh? This army is the foundation of governing the country, but you said what's wrong?" Jing Wenhao pretended to be surprised.

"Returning to the emperor, the first is the staffing problem left by General Xiao when he was in office. According to the number in the enlistment list and the monthly expenditure of military silver in the account book, the most important personnel appointment is the important personnel under General Xiao. The generals are all members of one family. I think this violates the rules established by the ancestors when the ancestors established the system. General Xiao is in charge of our Daqi army, not a certain family. Furthermore, the minister was ordered to inspect the camp At that time, Lu Yu's military adviser complained, this matter is related to the late emperor's decision, and asking the emperor to make the decision, this is the second." Li Yong stood in the hall, without a trace of emotion on his face, making it impossible to guess, he said so now, Is it his intention or the instruction from the person above.

"Grievance?" Jing Wenhao frowned, and his voice became hoarse, "Nowadays, in this prosperous age, there are actually people complaining of grievances in the army, but let me hear them."

"It is related to the dismissal of Vice-General Li ten years ago. According to Ma Junshi's testimony, Vice-General Li tried to prevent General Xiao from controlling the army with his family ten years ago. As a result of the prison disaster, he was also dismissed from the army. Military division Ma wishes to issue a military order to ask the emperor to thoroughly investigate the case. This is the testimony of the military division. After reading it, I feel deeply saddened, and please the emperor thoroughly investigate." Brought it over his head, the little eunuch below ran quickly to Li Yong to take the booklet.

The zhezi was handed over to An Fuquan by the little eunuch, and then to Jing Wenhao. There were only a few steps along the way, but the hearts of the officials were beating along, thinking about what they would say next.This Li Yong is becoming more and more popular now, and he is the elder brother of the current empress, but the one who plays the role over there is General Xiao, who is the emperor's grandparent. Although he handed over his military power due to illness, he has been in power for many years anyway. Important ministers, there are not a few people in the court who are on his side.

When Jing Wenhao and Li Yong were discussing such a move, they thought of the reactions of the ministers in the DPRK and China, but it didn't matter.This matter was brought up to show everyone his determination to govern the army, and it happened to liquidate those old troops who stood on his grandfather's side.So when Jing Wenhao opened the first booklet and casually glanced at the "sincere words" from Junshi Ma, he turned pale in shock, shook his head again and again, wishing he could beat his chest and said, "Has my great Qi fallen so far?"

"Li Yong." Jing Wenhao shouted.

"The minister is here." Li Yong replied with a bow.

"Where is the horse military division now?" Jing Wenhao asked.

"It's in the camp twenty miles away."

"Okay, let's pass the decree and allow him to issue a military order to thoroughly investigate the case. Anyone involved in the case, regardless of their position or status, will be imprisoned." Jing Wenhao raised his eyebrows and made such a decision.

And this can be regarded as a reminder to the ministers that now the world belongs to him, Jing Wenhao, even if it is a case that his father tried when he was in office, if he made a mistake, he would overthrow it.

"I have something else to tell you." Li Yong saluted again while the ministers were in confusion.

"Say."

"Just now I only talked about the case of General Xiao's men. Now I think the situation of General Chen's barracks is more critical." Li Yong changed the subject and directly pointed the finger at the people who were at the forefront of the storm these days.

This General Chen really has ups and downs. Two months ago, his granddaughter was the most favored concubine in the palace, and the only concubine who was pregnant.One of the children below is a minister in the court, and the others have entered the barracks. Anyone in the court who sees him has to give him two points.However, the situation has changed within this month. Concubine Chen lost her child and was demoted in status. Now there is no news in the palace.The eldest son was banned from going to court, and the daughter-in-law was still imprisoned in the clan mansion.No matter how he hinted in the past few days that Jing Wenhao's military power in the north is in his hands, and the barbarians have changed again in the past few months, Jing Wenhao is not angry.

Now that Li Xi pointed the finger at him, I finally understood that Jing Wenhao was not angry, but waited, and took advantage of him to settle the score.

Sure enough, Jing Wenhao sneered: "Oh, what happened to General Chen? How could it be more urgent than this unjust case?"

"Back to the emperor, the military expenditures submitted by General Chen are extremely unreasonable. A few days ago, I asked three accountants to come out to check the accounts together, and found that each of them was fake. I suspect that someone under General Chen used power for personal gain and enriched their pockets." , The amount is huge." When Li Yong said this, he already felt the anger from General Chen.

"Bloody mouth, the veteran is dedicated to the country and the people, how could he do such a rebellious thing." General Chen was going to mention the military situation in the north to Jing Wenhao again today, who would have thought that he had not had time to speak It was ginseng first.

"I know that the general has one heart and one mind, so I'm talking about the general's subordinates. Anyway, this account book is definitely fake. The emperor can send someone to investigate immediately. As for who in the army is responsible for such things, it depends. The emperor has decided." Li Yong didn't look at General Chen at all, Jing Wenhao and the people he sent out had already checked the evidence, now it's just a formality, General Chen should think about it now if he is smarter How to keep his subordinates, after all, he is his youngest son.

"Is this true? Li Yong, you know that corruption is a felony for me. If there is no evidence, it may be wrong for you to correct General Chen like this." Jing Wenhao spoke deeply.

"It's absolutely true, the inaccuracies in the account book are listed in the notebook, please have a look at the emperor." Li Yong was neither humble nor overbearing.

Jing Wenhao opened the second booklet, and he had read the clauses listed on it many times, so he couldn't be more clear about it.Jing Wenhao's brows became deeper and deeper, and the expression on his face became colder and colder. Finally, he raised his head slightly, looked at General Chen coldly, and asked, "General Chen, do you want to see these general accounts?"

General Chen himself disdains those things, but he also knows that his son has done some shameful things under his cover these years. He was thinking a few days ago that if he could send troops to the north this time, he would We can even out that account.Who knew that Li Yong would be dragged out at this moment.

"Your Majesty, please give me time. I will go back and investigate this matter thoroughly, and I will give the Emperor an explanation." General Chen was on the verge of riding a tiger, "If the Emperor doesn't believe it, I am willing to issue a military order."

Seeing the fish taking the bait, Jing Wenhao grinned and said, "There is no need for a military order, but this corruption is a felony after all. It is not easy for this person to make such a big mistake under General Chen's strict military discipline."

"Li Yong." Jing Wenhao called out in a drawn-out tone.

"The minister is here."

"Since you brought up this matter, from today onwards, you will enter General Chen's camp and take full responsibility for investigating this matter. If anyone obstructs you, you will be dealt with by military punishment." Jing Wenhao's words were full of majesty.

"I obey the order." Li Yong responded.

"Since you are going to the army, you have no identity and it is not easy to do things, so your status as an imperial envoy is equivalent to a lieutenant general for the time being. If someone dares to commit a crime, you will deal with it according to the military law, and you don't need to report to me." Jing Wenhao continued.

"Thank you." Li Yong replied.

"As for General Chen, after all, this matter came from your camp. Before you find out, you should not go to the camp to avoid suspicion."

"Your Majesty, my subject..." Old General Chen wanted to argue.

"Okay, I've made up my mind." After all, Jing Wenhao didn't give him a chance to finish his sentence.
