Luo Quanguan was considered to be from another faction of eunuchs.
Over the years, the eunuchs have never been monolithic. They have always been divided into two factions or even more. This is determined by the system and what the emperor wants to see.
But the tragedy is that the eunuchs also have a strong sense of unity, just like the low-level warriors in various vassal towns today. They are highly unified in controlling the emperor, manipulating the government, and attacking the civil service system.
The relationship between Luo Quanguan and Ximen Zhongsui was very subtle. They both expressed submission and at the same time maintained their independence. They formed their own faction and firmly controlled the Shence Right Army.
Shao Shude was not very familiar with this person. He only knew that he was suppressed by Ximen Zhongsui, and he was asked to come forward for any difficult work. For example, during the last trip eastward, Hao Zhenwei was awarded the title of Military Envoy of the National Army.
Luo Quanguan came forward.
This incident made Luo Quanguan a little disgraced, because Hao Zhenwei turned into a traitor within two days. In addition, many people knew that Shao Shude was in Tonghua Province, but you still rushed to award Hao Zhenwei with a banner to change your temper.
A bad martial artist might be killed in anger.
"Prince Luo is here to visit. Whose order is there?" Shao Shude asked, sitting on the bed.
Mrs. Pei sat aside.
Although it is snowing outside, the room is as warm as spring. She wears a half-armor on her upper body, and her frosty wrists are fully exposed. The chest is designed with a bare collar, which is held up high. There is a bow tie on the chest and a brocade tie.
I don’t know who tied it, it looks a bit messy.
Half of the hem of the arms is tied into the skirt, and the waist is very narrow. The train of the skirt drags to the floor, almost sweeping away plum blossoms.
There was also a piece of gauze draped on the backrest of the bed, which was balled up and obviously thrown there randomly.
Typical attire of a royal lady.
Pei subconsciously turned her face to the side, not wanting Luo Quanguan to recognize her. But Luo Quanguan didn't seem to notice her, and Pei quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
"I came here on the orders of the saint," Luo Quanguan replied.
When she heard the word "saint", Ms. Pei's breath was suffocated. She adjusted her collar and bow in a strange way to cover her slightly red skin.
"What's the matter with the saint?" Shao Shude's words were a bit domineering, just like asking the emperor if you have anything to do with me. If you don't have anything to do, don't bother me.
Luo Quanguan lowered his eyebrows and said: "The saint is in confinement, but he is still worried about the food and clothing of Shuofang's soldiers. He said that the weather is cold and the ground is freezing. King Qin's army may be returning to the town. If there is a shortage of winter clothes, some officials can send them some wine and meat.
, don’t let the soldiers complain, because the court will not be considerate."
"The saint is generous." Shao Shude leaned on the bed, put his left hand on Pei's soft waist, hugged the delicate body that was about to move aside, and said with a smile: "Winter Solstice, the two festivals are approaching, saint
Is there any reward to be given?"
These words were expected by Luo Quanguan, and also expected by the saints and officials. Don't let Shuofang's army leave without some bloodshed.
"One hundred thousand coins, one hundred thousand bolts of silk." Luo Quanguan replied simply.
"Two hundred thousand coins, three hundred thousand bolts of silk." Shao Shude counter-offered unceremoniously: "The Shence Army originally had fifty or sixty thousand people, and the reward was three times that of the outer vassal soldiers. Now there are only twenty thousand. Couldn't the saint give it?
Do you want to get up? Even if the saint can't afford it, don't you have money and silk in the treasury?"
"The New Year is approaching, and more than ten thousand officials in the Nanya and Northern Division are eagerly looking forward to it. The Palace Supervisor Ximen has said that in this troubled autumn, it is appropriate to give out more rewards to calm people's hearts. The sage promised it..." Luo Quan said.
"Luo Palace Supervisor, if I can't afford it, 200,000 coins and 300,000 pieces of silk, I can't control it if the soldiers get into trouble. During the Jianzhong period, Chanshui had a mutiny, and the counterinsurgency army turned into rebels. I thought the court had led As a warning. Now it is difficult to part with good wealth, which only disappoints the soldiers who are dedicated to serving the country. Please come back. I will stay in Chang'an until after the first day of the year. The reward will be distributed in two parts, one on the winter solstice and one on the first day. If not, the consequences will be Know it for yourself.”
Luo Quanguan's face had a look of disdain.
However, walking in the first month seems to be within the bottom line and is acceptable.
"There is one more thing that Prince Lingwu may be interested in," Luo Quanguan said again.
"speak."
"Zhu Quanzhong, the envoy of Xuanwu Jiedu, went to court to appeal Zhang Jun's grievances. The imperial court had no choice but to order him to return. Jun has returned to Beijing from Xiuzhou."
"Is there any connection between Zhang Jun and Zhu Quanzhong?" Shao Shude asked curiously.
What’s even more strange is, why didn’t Zhang Jun come to me? Is this person really a loyal minister? He only cares about the court and is hostile to Shuofang Town?
"I don't know this either. Jun Su and Ke Yong are at odds with each other and have a deep hatred. Prince Lingwu and Prince Naiyi of Longxi Province recognize each other as brothers. Zhang Jun is in a hurry and has no choice but to ask Quan Zhong for help."
"How can Zhang Jun still enter the court?"
Luo Quanguan smiled and said, "How can I get Bei Si to come back if he offends him? I have to send him away if I can't help it."
"Where to?"
"Jingnan and Eyue towns, you can choose one of them to leave the town."
This move is cruel enough!
Jingnan Jiedu Envoy is currently written by Li Kan. If the imperial court wants to confer it on Zhang Jun, Li Kan may not be able to comply.
Eyue is the Wuchang Army. Du Hong was born as an actor. He was extremely humble and had no family background to rely on. However, he was able to become the governor of a town in a few years. He was obviously capable. The court wanted to replace him and was desperate. He went directly to Zhu Quanzhong.
"That's very good." Shao Shude nodded and said: "I understand. Quan Zhong is ambitious and is not a virtuous person. If possible, the court can issue an edict to attack him. I am willing to contact my sworn brother and send troops together. I heard that Wei Boluo Hongxin has been attacked many times. Quanzhong bullied him, and he felt unhappy. Zhu Xuan, Zhu Jin, and Shi Pu regarded Quanzhong as their enemy. The emperor issued an edict, and there were already six soldiers and horses to attack Quanzhong. It was Sun Ru from Huainan, a certain You can also send people to contact one or two, or you can send troops."
Luo Quanguan was helpless.
The Prince of Lingwu County has recently spared no effort to discredit Zhu Quanzhong, and the person he is targeting is probably not Xuanwu, but Shaanxi, Guo and Hezhong.
Sure enough, Shao Shude went on to say: "I heard that the sage will appoint Wang Bian as the governor of the national army. How many states does this town govern?"
How many more states can he govern? Luo Quanguan cursed in his heart, could it be possible that he could give Tongzhou to Wang Bian?
"Jurisdiction over Huazhou." Luo Quanguan replied.
"I heard that the Suzong Dynasty once established the post of Shaanxi Jiedu Envoy, which had jurisdiction over the three prefectures of Shaanxi, Guo, and Hua, and governed Shaanxi Prefecture." Shao Shude said.
Luo Quanguan almost knelt down to Shao Shude when he heard this, please stop looking for trouble, okay?
"Look how scared you are!" Shao Shude sneered, stood up, walked a few steps with his hands behind his back, and said: "First give it to King Bian Huazhou, and the Tongguan Dutuan will practice the duty of catching the envoy. If he dares to make trouble, let the saint
Come to me."
Mr. Pei listened silently, and when he said the last sentence, he felt goosebumps all over his body.
She gently raised her head. Outside the door was a soldier standing solemnly in the snow. Inside the door, Lieutenant Luo Quanguan of the Right Army bowed slightly, lowering his eyebrows. Shao Shude, who was wearing a loose robe, was giving orders and spoke loudly.
The words of the minister.
Brave martial artist! She sat up straight and no longer lowered her head.
Luo Quanguan also breathed a sigh of relief and said with a wry smile: "It almost scared me, but now I can't survive."
Shao Shude also laughed. He was willing to deal with eunuchs because these people knew current affairs, spoke strictly, knew how to do things, and had strong execution ability.
The people in Nan Ya couldn't compete with Bei Division. It was not without reason that they were ridiculed that they could only stamp and deliver documents.
"I heard that Han Quanjie has returned from Shu, is there any news?" Shao Shude asked again.
Luo Quanguan laughed when he heard this and gloated: "Wei Zhaodu's army has been besieging Chengdu for a long time, but they can't find a way to do it. Their efforts are in vain, which makes the generals despise them. Han Quanjie suggested that he could call Qiongnan Defense Director Ximen Wentong to come to help. Zhao
But Wentong was so domineering that he beat Han Quanjie for a trivial matter and later wanted to kill him. Quanjie didn't realize that Wentong was so ungrateful, so he deeply regretted it and escaped back overnight."
The situation in Shuzhong has entered a new stage.
Ximen Wentong has defeated the four states of Qiong and Shu, killed Yang Shouliang, and strengthened his troops and horses.
After Gao Renhou of Zizhou was defeated, Zhu Mei took over the five prefectures of Dongchuan and attacked Yang Shouzhen.
At the critical moment, Zhao Jian from Longjian Town led his troops south and attacked Mianzhou. Zhu Mei was shocked and withdrew the siege from Suizhou and counterattacked Mianzhou. Zhao Jian could not resist the enemy and abandoned Mianzhou and left.
This was when Yang Shouzhen sent troops from Suizhou to attack Zizhou, and Zhu Mei had to give up her plan to pursue Zhao Jian.
After Zhao Jian calmed down, he sent an envoy to Zizhou, made peace with him with humble words and generous gifts, and then turned to attack the Maozhou Qiang people.
After Zhu Mei accepted the generous gift, she reluctantly let him go and turned to attack Suizhou.
Li Kan of Kuixia withdrew his troops and stopped attacking Hezhou. He also sent some armored troops so that he could deal with them with all his strength.
The powerful northwest troops led by Zhu Mei are extremely powerful and have become the target of public criticism in Shu. Everyone is afraid of him and wants to kill him and annex his tribe.
The towns of Longjian, Dongchuan, Suizhou, and Kuixia were playing intrigues and joining forces, but the court didn't care. The saints and officials just wanted to know when Chengdu would be taken.
Wei Zhaodu was under great pressure, but he didn't know how to use troops. General Li Yuan had only been appointed governor until now, but Ximen Wentong was already the history of Qiongnan's defense. Comparing the two, he gradually became alienated from him.
The situation in the middle of Shu seems to be between Ximen Wentong and Zhu Mei. Zhu Mei has the upper hand because of his strong soldiers and horses. Ximen Wentong, Qiong, Shu, Li, and Ya prefectures are not as good as the five prefectures of Dongchuan. In the end, could it be that
Defeated?
chaos!
Shao Shude felt that Sichuan was a bit like the warlords fighting in the Republic of China.
In order to divide the territory of Chen Jingxuan and his old general Gao Renhou, the imperial court cut it horizontally and vertically, and created so many towns that now the people are struggling to make a living.
We can only recruit more refugees, Helong and Shuofang need them!
