Chapter 871 The Heartless Whip
Just the day before Yunchu's army was ordered to march eastward, Crown Prince Li Hong captured a young man named Changsun Yan, who told himself that he was the eldest grandson of the late Zhao Guogong's eldest Sun Wuji.
In Datang, where people pretend to be descendants of other people's families at every turn, people don't believe such deceptive nonsense.
Of course, Prince Li Hong didn't believe it either.
After Yunchu met Changsun Yan, he confirmed that this person was Changsun Chong's eldest son, Changsun Yan, but he refused to admit that this person was the real Changsun Yan.
"Why can't you figure it out so much?"
After the crown prince and eldest grandson Yan were left in the big tent, Yun Chu said with a bit of regret.
Changsun Yan was expressionless and said nothing.
Yunchu knocked on the table and said, "How is Brother Elder Sun?"
Seeing Yun Chu asking about his father, the grandson Yan clasped his hands and replied, "My father passed away two years ago."
Yun Chu was silent for a moment and said, "It's a pity."
After speaking, Yunchu walked out of the big tent, leaving the venue to Li Hong and Changsun Yan, a pair of cousins.
Yun Chu looked at the soldiers who were busy pulling out the camp and didn't want to talk much, but Wen Rou came over and said: "When Your Majesty controls Bintian and the Empress dies, the Changsun family will definitely be reappointed by the imperial court.
The reason why His Majesty wants to deal with Duke Zhao so viciously is simply because Duke Zhao is too powerful. Once Duke Zhao's power is eliminated, even for the sake of Queen Wende, it is only natural that he be activated again.
Now, since Changsun Yan has confirmed the matter of rebellion, there will be no more Changsun family in the world. "
Yun Chu shook his head and said: "I think this is pretty good. Compared to accepting a powerless and powerless Zhao Guogong in the future, it's better to explode once, at least to let out the anger in my chest."
With a gentle sigh, he said, "Now when I think of Chang Sun Chong's literary talent, it seems like yesterday."
Yun Chu nodded and said: "He may be the best son-in-law in the Tang Dynasty. I heard that Emperor Taizong loved Princess Changle and specially used the best son-in-laws in the history books to thank Liu Bin (the grandson of Xie An and the son of Xie Yan) Liu Zhenchang) and Wang Xianzhi (Wang Zijing) were the criteria.
Finally found Changsun Chong.
It's a pity that a generation of romantic figures eventually turned into a piece of loess, and now, only a bone remains. "
Gentlely nodded and said: "After I die, if I can reach the title of duke, I will make a gold-threaded jade robe and inlay the flesh into it. In this way, even after I die, I will be worthless."
Yun Chu glanced at Wen Rou, seeing that he could come up with such a mentally retarded idea, and was deeply worried about his afterlife, because tomb robbers liked people like him the most.
"You can help me with the tomb passage mechanism."
Wenrou was obviously not as stupid as home, and immediately made some supplements.
"It's simple. I have a method here. I can burn stones to get a kind of lime. After it solidifies in water, it will be extremely firm. I will add steel rods and iron plates to the lime slurry, and then cast a ten-foot-thick stone on the spot. A huge house, and then use steel bars and lime to connect this house with a stone mountain, so that you can sleep in it for thousands of years without any worries."
"How can I come out if I am resurrected?"
"It doesn't matter. I will design the door to open inward. If you wake up, just pull the door open and come out."
Just when the two were joking to ease their mood, Li Hong came out with red eyes, as if he had just cried.
"When I was young, Changsun Yan even carried me on his back."
Genuinely glanced at Li Hong's sleeve and said, "So, you smeared ginger juice on the sleeve?"
Li Hong sighed and said, "I really want to cry, but unfortunately, I can't cry, so I have to do this."
Yun Chu said: "Where is Changsun Yan?"
Li Hong sniffled and said, "Just beheaded."
"How many people need to be punished?"
"I can't help it. After the court hearing, at least six hundred people were beheaded."
Gentlely said: "Can't you behead him immediately?"
Li Hong shook his head and said: "No, there will be someone from the father's side to interrogate, and I have exceeded my authority by killing Changsun Yan."
Yun Chu said: "Who is here?"
Li Hongdao: "Wei Chizhen, the chancellor of Dali Temple in Luoyang."
Ruorou heard the words and immediately said to Yunchu and Li Hong: "Hu people."
Yun Chu smiled and said, "I didn't expect to meet a Cypriot in Datang. It's really rare."
Li Hong was refreshed when he heard the words, and immediately asked, "Are you from Naha's tribe?"
Yun Chu shook his head and said: "No, the Yuchi clan originated from the Sai people, and later, during the wars during the Northern and Southern Dynasties, they were conquered by the Tuoba tribe of Xianbei, and finally became the Yuchi clan of the Tuoba tribe of Xianbei.
The Cypriot tribe is like this. Whoever is strong will follow whoever is. If one boss is unlucky, they will change to another boss and continue to follow. Many bosses have perished, but they are doing well. After Naha became the queen of the Cypriots, their Times are obviously better, and judging by their perverted ability to have children, their growth is just around the corner. "
Li Hong remembered that Naha ran away pregnant after being with him for seven days, while the princess did not have any movement in her stomach for more than a year, so she agreed with Yunchu's statement that the greatest skill of the Cypriots is to have children.
"Your Majesty dispatched Yu Chizhen to take charge of the case, which means that this time he will not allow outsiders to intervene. Therefore, this time, the clans in Shandong and Hebei that are related to the Bingling case may become His Majesty's first choice for offering sacrifices to the flag."
Yunchu asked Li Hong again: "You have recruited so many thieves here, and some of them have made great contributions to you. How are you going to deal with these people?"
Li Hongdao: "Lou Shide will be here tomorrow. I entrust this matter to Lou Shide. He should be able to handle it very well."
Yunchu has seen Lou Shide's performance over the years, he is a very capable person, no matter whether it is a big or small matter in the East Palace, he can't handle it well.
Although he is in charge of more than 300 farming affairs of the Eastern Palace in the whole Tang Dynasty, he is well-managed, coupled with his humility and courtesy, even the emperor and empress have praised him many times, thinking that he is a very good guest of the prince. The second time he asked the prince to ask Lou Shide to be stationed in the Shaofu prison, but Li Hong refused.
However, even with Lou Shide on the outside and Xu Jingzong on the inside, Yunchu still felt that Li Hong needed an aggressive person by his side.
Lou Shide is a practical talent, but he can't do what he wants to fight with all the officials in the court. Xu Jingzong is old and lacks energy. God knows when he will die of old age. He has almost finished training in Tuyuhun, he should enter the East Palace and be the prince's guest.
Pei Xingjian's army had already crossed the Yellow River and entered Jeju, and it was considered to have officially set foot on Shandong and Hebei. According to the military report from Pei Xingjian's general, when the army crossed the river, it was suppressed by the governor of Jeju, Pei Shouzhen. Enough ships were collected to allow the army to cross the Yellow River smoothly.
Pei Xingjian and Pei Shouzhen are of the same family, but they have different family members. Naturally, Pei Shouzhen strongly supports the emperor's east tour. Unfortunately, as an official in Jeju, he can't do much. This time, Pei Xingjian's army is watching Under these conditions, Pei Shouzhen had enough courage and courage to cut seats with the Shandong gentry.
Once the emperor's central army crosses the river in Jeju or Caozhou, the battle between the emperor and the gentry in Shandong and Hebei will be completely heated up. At that time, the situation will be more complicated than that in the south of the Yellow River.
Not to mention, Prince Li Hong would take the opportunity to participate at this time, and it would not be possible without someone who was smart enough and experienced around him.
Zhang Jianzhi had been in Yunchu's army for half a month, since he left from Tuyuhun and returned to the Central Plains, Yunchu hadn't seen him, which made him feel anxious all day long.
Zhang Jianzhi is very clear about how much Yunchu pays attention to practical interests, and his fight with Li Jingye in Tuyuhun did not achieve any practical benefits. , the mighty Tuyuhun tore into pieces, and turned Tuyuhun from a fertile place where cattle and sheep could not be seen in the wind and grass to a barren place where even wild wolves had no prey.
Fei Jiu came to the tent where Zhang Jianzhi was placed with a smile, cupped his hands as soon as he entered, and said, "Congratulations, congratulations."
Zhang Jianzhi looked at this pimply-faced man who had been restraining him in Tuyuhun for two years with complicated emotions, and bowed his hands expressionlessly and said: "Mr. Fat, where does the certain family come from?"
Fei Jiu said: "The prince has taken a fancy to you."
Zhang Jianzhi couldn't help but his heart trembled, and he said in a trembling voice: "Is it true?"
Fei Jiu brought a pockmarked face to Zhang Jianzhi's ear and whispered: "The owner originally wanted you to go to Yinshan to graze and continue to supply cattle and sheep to Chang'an, but the crown prince said that you are also a talent after seeing your past. , I opened my mouth to ask the Patriarch for it.
The Patriarch has thought about it for a long time, fearing that you will not be able to bear the expectations of His Highness the Crown Prince, shame the Patriarch, and spoil the affairs of the Prince, so he ordered me to ask you: Can you make it? "
Zhang Jianzhi knelt down on the ground with a thud, raised his hands and swore, "Don't you dare to smash yourself to pieces to repay the prince's respect."
Fat Jiu licked his lips and said: "Actually, I am quite optimistic about you. In the barren land of Tuyuhun, you can also pull a team. Although it is useless, it is still very valuable.
The head of the family said, you go directly to see the prince. If the prince likes you, you will work in the East Palace in the future. If the prince doesn't like you, you can continue to raise cattle and sheep in Yinshan Mountain. This will be somewhat useful. "
Zhang Jianzhi choked up and said, "This is nature, this is nature."
Fei Jiu glanced at Zhang Jianzhi and said, "Let's go, this is the last chance that the Patriarch gave you because he was sympathetic to you for so many years and failed to seek an official position. It can also be regarded as compensation for your hard work in Tuyuhun for ten years. The future path depends on you personally." of good fortune."
Zhang Jianzhi stood up and said: "In the future, I will follow the order of the emperor."
Fei Jiu stopped, looked at Zhang Jianzhi seriously, and said, "You know, what the Patriarch hates the most is the chaotic people. From now on, your master can only be the crown prince. From now on, you will be with the Yun family again." No entanglements."
Zhang Jianzhi said in disbelief: "Please rest assured, Mr. Fei, Zhang Jianzhi is not an ungrateful person."
A whip flew out from Fei Jiu's cuff, slapped Zhang Jianzhi's face heavily, and shouted angrily: "This whip, you will end your friendship with Yun Shi from now on!"
