Chapter 287 The man must be responsible!

Liu Ping opened his eyes and heard someone shouting: "Okay, okay, the Grand Marshal is here to survive!"

Liu Jianji, who was sitting by the bed, breathed a sigh of relief and buried his head in Liu Ping's hands.

Xu Ping and Wu Zunlu walked forward, looked at Liu Ping's appearance, and asked the military doctor: "Is Taiwei Liu really okay?"

After receiving the affirmative answer from the military doctor, Xu Ping saw Liu Ping's expression extremely embarrassed and said to Liu Jianji: "Baochen, you go out with others first. Wu Jinglei and I have something to say to the Taiwei."

Everyone went out, Xu Ping and Wu Zunlu sat down in front of the bed, looked at Liu Ping, and sighed: "Taiwei, what should I do if you do this? I know what you think, but in life, many times, you have to walk on your feet, which is what a real man does!"

Wu Zunluo said: "The Taiwei is too worried! Xia and Xu Duhu have submitted a memorial to the court to ask Pang Junfa to clarify the merits and demerits of the captured generals in Xingqing Prefecture. The Taiwei has made merits in the country and will not see you differently in the future."

Liu Ping closed his eyes without saying anything. He died just to avoid implicating his younger brother. What's the use of Wu Zunlu saying this?

Xu Ping patted Liu Ping's hand and said in a deep voice: "Taiwei, no one will make you difficult for Baochen, so you don't have to worry about this. The Taiwei was once a general in charge of the army, and he controlled three groups of troops and was responsible for doing things. Now, in Xingqing Mansion, there is not only Taiwei, a general captured by the thieves. Once the thieves die, what should everyone do? They are like Taiwei, how should Xu explain to the court and the people of the world! The thieves have not taken your lives, so I can't survive once I come?"

Liu Ping opened his eyes and looked ashamed: "I'm sorry to the Protector"

"A real man should be responsible, cry, make a fuss, and hang himself. What a woman does! If the Taiwei is really good for himself and your brothers, he should face the arrangements of the court and make achievements! Death cannot atone for sins, but merit can be used to compensate for the crime! My intention of Wu Jinglei is to let the Taiwei go to Mingsha Army, inspect the Southern Deputy Chief of the Xingling Road South to assist Zhong Shiheng. Originally, he thought that he would make arrangements in a few days, so that these days would calm you down. Now it seems that there is no need. Since the Taiwei's health is not serious, then clean up early and set off in two or three days. Now you are all in the name of power and take action. When the imperial edict comes down, you will go to a new position. It is not that Xu is unkind, but that he will make achievements one day earlier, and you will turn over one day soon!"

After Xu Ping finished speaking, he stood up and said to Wu Zunlu: "The words have been explained. Let's go and let their brothers say something kind of things."

Seeing Liu Ping closing his eyes tightly and feeling ashamed, Wu Zunlu felt a little embarrassed. However, there was no better way. No matter how much he said, it would only make Liu Ping even more embarrassed, so he would get up and go out with Xu Ping.

Liu Ping was a Jinshi and had been in charge of the army for decades. He understood the truth that he should have said, and there was really nothing to persuade him. It only depends on whether he could untie the knot in his heart, stand up bravely, and prove himself again with his achievements.

Wu Zunlu could understand Xu Ping's anger. It was not only Liu Ping in the city. If he died, how should Xu Ping deal with it? If Chen Xi was buried with her, what would the people who were not dead in the city think? Does Xu Ping mean that everyone should die? And if he ignored her, Xu Ping would be said to be cold-blooded and ruthless and without a kindness and forgiveness. Once Liu Ping died, Xu Ping was in a dilemma.

After leaving the Liu Ping's door, Xu Ping looked up at Helan Mountain not far away and breathed a sigh of relief. He originally wanted to try to appease the captured soldiers in the city, but it seemed that he had thought things too simple. Since that was the case, it would be better to be simple and crude, and let Pang Ji come to Xingqing Mansion as soon as possible to identify the captured soldiers. There is no big mistake, if you can use it again, you can send it to various military positions as soon as possible, and reorganize the imperial guards with the people drawn from the Longyou Army. These people felt guilty, but they were better than the original generals of the imperial guards. At least they were rebellious and difficult to control. Moreover, most of the captured generals were like Liu Ping and Shi Yuansun, who were truly brave generals who dared to fight. Regardless of their ability or morality, they were at least not inferior to the generals in the imperial guards.

In Chongzheng Hall, Lu Yijian talked about the current situation of Liu Ping, Shi Yuansun and others in Xingqing Mansion, and said to Zhao Zhen: "Your Majesty, to Liu, Shi and other generals, Xu Duhu, mean that if there is no big mistake, you should use it. The northwest is the time when people are used. Most of these people were captured by fighting hard that day, and there is no big mistake. It just allows them to make achievements and redeem their sins."

Li Di said: "What Xu Ping said makes sense, but the court will not hide the words of the whole country if it does not pursue the past."

"The prime minister does not fail to pursue the past, but merits and demerits must be distinguished. Pang Ji was rushing to Xingzhou to identify why they were captured that day. Due to the different merits and demerits, the court will naturally impose punishments and then apply for it."

Listening to the conversation between Lu Yijian and Li Yi, Zhao Zhen was very embarrassed. For him, this matter was far more complicated than that of the prime minister, Privy Councilor and Xu Ping, who was in the northwest. It was not as simple as making up his mind, regardless of whether the government or the opposition was discussed. How to deal with Liu Ping, influenced Kang Baoyi, Wang Jizhong and others during the Zhenzong period, and their descendants were still officials in the court. Especially Wang Jizhong, who was named king in Khitan, and his son Wang Huaijie was also a member of the history of the Yao County Group in the Song Dynasty, and his attitude towards him directly affected his relationship with the Khitan.

Xu Ping was determined to fight a war with the Khitan near Yinshan. The civil servant group with great confidence fully supported it, but the senior generals of the imperial guards were mostly opposed. If Longyou Army defeated the Khitan, where would the faces of the generals of the three yamen be put? Because the Chanzhou Alliance was a contribution, Wang Jizhong and his descendants were very sensitive to evaluate it.

The soldiers captured by Dangxiang will be investigated by the Military and Justice Department and then appointed. So should the generals captured by the Khitan be investigated? If this is not clear, Zhao Zhen dared not make up his mind.

Lu Yijian knew Zhao Zhen’s thoughts best. Seeing that he was reluctant to speak, he said, “Your Majesty, the rebellion of Dangxiang was suppressed by the Longyou Army. The Longyou Army and Xu Ping’s actions were all in their previous lives, and everything was new. Since it was new, we will not mention the past. We will only look at the matter of Xingqing Prefecture this time. I think that since Liu Ping and Shi Yuansun were captured with great courage, they should not be too harsh. Pang Ji will sort out the merits and demerits of the captured soldiers there, and the court will take responsibility for it.”

As Liu Ping in the same year, Li Di knew him better. The young Liu Ping was very bold and dared to advise him. He offended Ding Wei, so he changed from literary to military general. Of course, he was born into a general, proficient in military books, skilled in archery and horses, and it was also suitable to be a general. This year, he had a striking life and had a strong temper. He could adapt to the imperial guards and become a general in charge of military commands. Such a person did not believe that he died in Dynasties. The reason why he was captured was that the subordinates and generals who participated in the war at that time were more responsible.

Thinking of this, Li Di held the scepter and said, "What the Grand Marshal said is right. The Dangxiang Rebellion is nothing before, so there is no need to use the actions there to pursue the past. This time, Xu Ping's proposal was very appropriate, so the Military and Law Department Pang Ji went to discuss the merits and demerits. The court gave the punishment accordingly and made appoint each other. Wu Zunlu and Xu Ping jointly submitted a memorial and entrusted the inspection department of the two capitals in the newly established Xingling Road, and Liu Ping and Shi Yuansun were used as deputy so that they could atone for their merits. I think this discussion is very fair."
