Liao Yingzhong originally wanted to scold Sun Huchen, but if Jia Sidao got angry, he could only enlighten Jia Sidao.
"Pingzhang Gong calmed down. Although things are abnormal, fortunately, Sun Huchen died and Jiang Cai was betrayed. After all, the loss is not big."
Weng Yinglong stepped forward to take the letter and read it. His face was ugly, but he said with relief, "Mr. Pingzhang was so angry that he was so angry. To be honest, it was just a commander who killed the superior, and he surrendered to the enemy. He is not without strength."
Sure enough, Jia Sidao angrily shouted: "Is this the problem?!"
The key to the problem is of course not something as trivial as "Jiang Cai killed Sun Huchen and led a few troops to surrender to the enemy." The Song Dynasty could not afford to lose even these soldiers.
In fact, even if Sun Huchen's 20,000 people were wiped out and Jiangling Mansion was lost, it wouldn't be too bad. It meant that Li Jing had openly rebelled, and there was no need to hesitate anymore. The court was determined to go to war.
At the end of the battle between Li Xiagang and Kublai Khan, the government and the opposition could at least work together to put down the rebellion.
No matter how incompetent Sun Huchen is, even a pig should have the effect of declaring war.
This is what Jia Sidao said, if all three stocks are thrown to the minimum number, there must be three points anyway.
This is the worst case scenario, how much worse can it be?
As a result, the war didn't even start, and Li Xia, the thief who sent him away, had not yet rebelled, but Jia Sidao "conspired to rebel" first.
This seemed like nothing, just a clumsy frame-up. But Jia Sidao knew the bad consequences of this incident.
For example, he was sitting opposite Li Jia at the gambling table, waiting for Ruo to split the chips to start the bet. Li Ming was cheating there, and no one had ever done it before. Instead, he blamed Si Dao and someone behind him started to criticize our Mr. Ping Zhang.
There's going to be a cheat!
"!!!"
"Is it difficult?! Is it difficult to let Sun Huchen and Li Jin fight regardless of success or failure?! He forced his concubine to rebel without even starting a fight. How on earth did he do it?!" Pingzhang Gong calmed down his anger!
, let the students investigate this matter, for the sake of Pingzhang's justice." Liao Yingzhong cupped her hands and said.
After saying that, Gan Ying glanced at Weng Yinglong and asked him to bear Ruo Jia Sidao's anger, apologized, and went to get more specific news. Weng Yinglong continued to comfort Jia Sidao.
"Don't worry, Mr. Pingzhang, Li Ni's trick, which is full of loopholes, will not affect the situation, and no one will believe him. Over there, Liao Yingzhong sorted out the intelligence sent by all parties, and did not return until night to report to Jia Sidao.
"The intelligence returned from Jiangling has various theories. Many people are openly saying that Sun Chengchen wanted to rebel and forced Jiancai to do so!!! This must be Li Ni's handiwork; some soldiers said that he was moving back.
Sun Huchen and my concubine got into a fight because of a verbal dispute. There are some rumors that they both fell in love with Zhao Zhenzhen, a famous prostitute in Jiangling, and turned against each other because of it. This should be Zhao Zhenzhen deliberately letting some boring scholars release rumors to take the opportunity to become famous."
Jia Sidao couldn't bear to be annoyed, but he could only listen.
When a story spread from Jiangling to Lin'an, it had already changed its flavor. We could only analyze the truth by peeling off the cocoons from all kinds of messy rumors.
"What's more, some people say that Sun Huchen occupied Jiang Cai's key points and therefore forced Jiang Cai to rebel.
"Do the courtiers believe it when I tell you?" Jia Sidao asked rhetorically: "A man from the north who has nothing is finally promoted to the position of ruler, just because a woman abandons her future and her integrity?"
"I'm afraid you don't believe me. Although Jiang Cai's official position is not high, he has a great reputation on the battlefield of Huaiyou. His character is strong and straightforward, so he is praised by others."
"Choose one of the reasons you mentioned. Should I tell the courtiers that the matter came to this point just because the generals had a quarrel? Or should I tell them that they were jealous? Or because they hated taking the concubine?"
"this!!!"
"So I rebelled, right?" Jia Sidao asked.
"Don't worry about Mr. Ping Zhang. This crude trick will definitely not defeat Mr. Ping Zhang." Ha..."
"
"After Li Ni's great victory, he may openly rebel. According to Jia Sidao's wishes, Lu Wende should be sent to send troops to attack.
"Jia Sidao, Lu Wende?"
"This is the best time to attack Li Ni. If you don't make up your mind, you may end up raising tigers."
In a deserted public room in the Privy Council, Ma Yaojia looked a little hesitant when she heard what Ye Mengding said. After pondering for a long time, she finally answered: How can you be sure that Jia Sidao is not taking the opportunity to usurp power and want to commit rebellion?^
Ye Mengding trudged away, opened the door, and said a few words, asking his men to guard the door. Then he turned back and whispered, "Mao is here, Xiang Zhong has also got the news."
"Xianggong Ye also heard about it."
"That's right." Ye Mengding said, "Before even fighting Li Lan, the Jiangling Mansion was in chaos. With things getting to this point, is it more like Daozhen instigating Sun Huchen to rebel, or is it more like Dao that Li Song was plotting a trap?"
"Li Xia must be behind this matter. There is no doubt about this," Ma Ting said, "It's more like Taoism saying that Li Jing wants to rebel. We didn't think that Li Nuan was because these words came from Jia Sidao.
It won’t be counter-intuitive. In the same way, Li Xia’s claim of tribute seems like Taoism and he wants to rebel. Because it’s what Li Xia said, is it false?
"Xiang Zhong also thinks that Jia Sidao wants to rebel."
Ma Tingjia did not answer.
Ye Mengding said, "At this time, if we still show gratitude to each other,"
"Such an official and such a powerful minister really have no objections?" Ma Tingluan said, "Does Mr. Ye trust him?"
Ye Mengding couldn't answer this time.
As for their emperor, which powerful official would not want to replace him?
In fact, even if Li Pei didn't say anything, many people had already suspected that Jia Sidao wanted to take the title.
This time there is indeed evidence.
Li Tingzhi believed in Jiang Cai's loyalty, and the courtiers also believed in Li Tingzhi's loyalty.
Ma Tingjia waited for a long time, but when Ye Mengyi didn't answer, he simply said, "The matter is very simple. I don't care whether it was Li Xia's method or not. The only question is whether the imperial court dares to delegate power. It's more like conscripting money and food, ordering the whole country's soldiers, and ruling the world in the name of suppressing rebellion."
Soldiers and horses? Does Mr. Ye dare?
"!!!"
Conversations similar to this occurred in various public offices in Lin'an City. The important ministers discussed their opinions and prepared to express their opinions when discussing political affairs.
Today, state affairs in the Song Dynasty are all decided in Zhongshu Tong Meeting Hall.
Not long ago, Jia Sidao had been worshiped as the Grand Master, and he was responsible for the affairs of Zhangjun and the state. He was authorized to attend the Sutra Banquet on January 3rd and attend the meeting for three days to manage the affairs of the capital.
Remove the word "heavy" from Pingzhang's important military affairs, because it seems more like Tao feels that he has full authority to handle all important matters, not just "important matters".
As for the affairs of the capital, Zhao Qi basically opened up and said, "All state affairs are left to the discretion of Xianggong Jia, so don't bother me."
Of course, no matter how powerful Jia Sidao is, he is still a minister.
Some important matters are not even discussed by the emperor, not to mention that as a minister, he still has to discuss them with all the important ministers.
On April 13th, Zhongshutong discussed matters in the capital hall.
Most of the people in the capital are members of the political party, but there are also many prominent ministers who are not even able to remove themselves from office, and they often cause trouble in the capital.
Ye Mengding, Jiang Wanli, Ma Tingluan, Wang Fan, Zhang Jian and others have all received the news from Jiangling and are preparing to question Jia Sidao in person today and find out the result.
There was a general look of sadness on their faces.
It is of course miserable to encounter such an official family, where all state affairs are managed by treacherous and sycophantic officials.
This is the result of them thinking that the emperor only needs to rule from the top, and famous ministers and good ministers can govern the world well, and then they put a fool on the throne.
Jia Sidao walked into the capital hall, but his face didn't look good either.
"Two matters are being discussed today. One is the case of Meicai, the deputy governor of Wanzhou, killing Sun Huchen, the envoy of Peizhou Lu Ce; the other is to continue to discuss the reward matters after repelling the Mongolian army, including how to reward the king of Pingling County.
Different from private discussions, this was a formal discussion, and it was not decent at first. It was as if the Song Dynasty was still on the tea day, recaptured Guanzhong and Hexi, and defeated the Mongolian army." How about making him a prince and asking him to return to Lin'an to take care of himself?
"
"Yes, please ask him to take care of his life." "Ahem, there is no need to be sarcastic or sarcastic when discussing matters in the hall.
"Otherwise? The Kuizhou Road Ce envoy appointed by the officials could not enter Kuimen.
"Before the case is ascertained, it would be inappropriate to just say that Sun Huchen was killed because of necessity. According to what I have reported, it is said that Sun Huchen wanted to rebel."
"Then recall Jiang Cai to Lin'an to investigate.
"Can we still recall it?"
"Jiang Cai killed Sun Huchen and fled to Sichuan. If he is not dealt with, the imperial court will be useless."
"If the imperial court doesn't investigate, the Prince of Pingling County won't be able to investigate."
"!!!"
Sudden.
"Gentlemen, how long do you want to deceive yourself and others?! According to the law, Li Xia's private reward for soldiers is already a serious crime of rebellion, so why bother to whitewash the peace?!" First, some low-ranking officials offered suggestions; after talking, finally
Chen Yizhong, an official who went to Luo Caizhong to become a scholar, directly exposed the matter.
Chen Yizhong is a disciple that Jia Sidao has recruited in recent years. He is talented and energetic.
Gengsidao granted Chen Yizhong permission to take the exam without taking the entrance exam. Last year, Chen Yizhong came second in the rankings. After that, he was promoted very quickly under the protection of Gengsidao. Now he has become a secretary and has been appointed as a secretary. He is dedicated to serving as Jia Sidao when discussing affairs in the capital hall.
mouthpiece.
"What is the outcome of such secretiveness? 1 In the situation at hand, Li Xia's counter-intentions are clear. Although Yizhong is in a humble position, he dares to conclude that he will soon proclaim himself king, and dares to ask the princes to come up with countermeasures.
Come."
Ma Tingluan finally spoke and asked, "What can I do with Quan?"
Speaking of which, Ma Tingluan is four years younger than Chen Yizhong.
Chen Yizhong passed the exam at the age of forty-four, which is not too late. However, Ma Zhenglei ranked first in the first examination at the age of twenty-five and ranked fourth in the palace examination. Now he is only in his early forties and has reached the rank of Minister of Lidu. This was still suppressed by Jia Sidao many times.
under.
When the two talked, Chen Yizhong seemed like a young man, while Ma Tingluan was calm and like a famous minister.
Anyway, Jia Sidao is frivolous, and his employees also like to be youthful. What they want is the courage to speak and act.
Chen Yizhong responded without hesitation, "Of course we have made preparations in advance and are preparing to send troops now to quell Li Xia's rebellion." "Who will be used to quell the rebellion? How many troops?"
"I recommend Lu Wende, the commander of Jinghu, to raise an army of 200,000 to put down the rebellion.
"Where does the money and food come from?" This is still the case.
Ma Tingluan shook his head and ignored Chen Yizhong.
Chen Yizhong then asked, "In the past few years, has the imperial court issued an edict to enter Sichuan and Shaanxi? Li Xia has established his own country in Sichuan and Shaanxi. Don't all the princes care about it?"
Ma Tingwan pondered for a moment and did not answer. Instead, he said, "What do you colleagues think of Sun Huchen's rebellion?"
"absurd!"
"With such a flawless frame-up, what is there to talk about?"
"!!!"
Amidst the shouts of Jia party officials, Jia Sidao raised his hand.
His discussion today was a little different from usual. He seemed much more sincere and did not show off, and looked directly at Ye Mengding.
"Li Ni's rebellion is no child's play. I want to set up the Lin'an Governor's Mansion, mobilize the troops and horses of the world, and make preparations to counter the rebellion. What is your attitude?"
Ye Mengqi didn't expect Jia Sidao to ask so directly.
Before he had time to answer, there was already a shout behind him.
"No!"
"Li Xia has not yet rebelled, but Jia Pingzhang wants to command the world's troops. What does he want?" "We will never agree."
"It's up to you to decide whether Jia Pingzhang is really going to be in charge of the court."
"!!!"
Jia Sidao laughed heartily, opened his hands, and said, "If this is the case, why should we discuss it with you? Li Xia will lose a hair because of your generous speeches."
He said and walked straight out.
"The gates of Sichuan and Shu in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River have been lost, and the rebellious officials and traitors are about to separate themselves. You can't whitewash this peaceful situation, but you still doubt me? If you don't dare to start a war, what else is there to talk about? Who among you can stop Li
Is it a flaw? Oh, go call him and beg him to stop."
"Pingzhang Gong...
"Go away!" Jia Sidao threw down his sleeves and raised his hand to point at the ministers in the hall, "Are you trying to accuse me of treason? Okay, since I am guilty, it is not appropriate for me to calm down the military until I prove my innocence. Then please stop.
,please bear more, be patient.”
Jia Sidao didn't even look back.
It was as if this gambling game hadn't even started yet. He had made all preparations and was still rubbing his hands in preparation, but he was kicked out for cheating.
They want someone else to bet with Li Xia and let them be embarrassed.
