Cen Changqian smiled and said: "Now the rice, flour, grains, oils, cloth and leather purchased by the logistics department all have to go through his hands. Several shops that we have cooperated with for a long time in the past have canceled their cooperation because they could not withstand his blackmail, and have been replaced by several shops that he has secretly contacted.
Of course, there is a lot of money for corruption. This guy even exploits people who go to the army to get night incense, which makes many cooperative merchants complain. As long as the commander gives an order, he can be checked at any time.
A sure one."
Fang Jun was surprised: "It's only been a few days? This guy is quite capable!"
Intuitively, it seems easy to be greedy. Of course, it is not difficult to be greedy and take possession of small things. As long as you are brave and have a dark heart, it is enough. However, it is definitely not easy to be greedy and greedy. Not everyone can do it.
owned.
Even with the great god Fang Jun "covering" him, no one dared to provoke him, but in a short period of time, he was able to capture the Jinwu Guard's logistics department and not let go of all aspects.
"Mao", Fang Jun was amazed by Helan Chushi's ability to be greedy for ink.
He shook his head with a smile and said casually: "Then let's find a reason to get rid of him in the next two days, confiscate all Tan Mo, and also take the opportunity to kill the chickens and scare the monkeys, and shock those guys with unclean hands and feet."
With a "giant corrupt" like Helan Chushi in the army, no one else can see it. Seeing Helan Chushi's huge corruption, it is impossible for others not to look at him with jealousy. And at this time, it is naturally the best thing to destroy Helan Chushi.
Deterrence - the Marshal's relatives must be investigated strictly. Can you guys have a tougher background than Helan Chushi?
It's time to clean up the military and promote cleanliness.
Cen Changqian immediately agreed: "Just teach me to handle this matter. It won't take much effort. After handling this matter, we will start compiling the textbook. I will definitely not delay the commander's important work."
After a pause, he asked for instructions: "Save him alive, or..."
Fang Jun thought for a while and said calmly: "Let him live. After all, we deliberately lured him into the trap. It would be unkind to chop off his head."
Whether he is kind or not is secondary. The main reason is that Helan Chushi followed the path of the sisters from the Wu family and entered the Jinwu Guard. If he lost his life because of this, he would inevitably be criticized and complained by the entire Helan family. As a man, he should let his
Women avoid this dilemma.
With one life left behind, exiled from the army, and property confiscated, the Helan family will only spread their grievances on Helan Chushi...
Outside the door, Liu Rengui, the left minister of the Ministry of War, asked to see him.
"Let him in."
"Here."
Liu Rengui was brought in by his servants and saluted Fang Jun. Then Cen Changqian saluted Liu Rengui. The latter smiled and said: "Changqian is young and promising. When I see you, I suddenly feel a little old."
Cen Changqian smiled and said: "How dare you be praised by Liu Shilang? You are in your prime and have made outstanding achievements in the navy. The younger generation admires and envy you at the same time. But I don't know when I will be able to sail across the oceans like you and make our country prosperous.
Power."
"Haha, I can indeed talk, and I have a bright future."
After exchanging a few words and sitting down respectively, Fang Jun asked: "But is there something wrong?"
Liu Rengui hurriedly took out a copy of military information from his pocket and placed it on Fang Jun's desk. He whispered: "The news just came back. His Royal Highness the King of Wei was assassinated before arriving in Luoyang. He ran away all night and finally escaped from the pursuit. Fortunately, he was not alive.
hinder."
Cen Changqian was shocked: "Who dares to be so arrogant?"
Liu Rengui shook his head and said: "The assassins are a cavalry of more than a hundred people. They come and go like the wind and are nowhere to be found."
Seeing that Fang Jun had taken the military information and checked it carefully, Cen Changqian couldn't help but said: "Since it is a cavalry of more than a hundred people, it must at least have a brigade of troops. There must be traces of an army of this size leaving the camp without permission, but
The garrisons around Luoyang are being closely investigated, and even the troops in Chang'an City are suspected. As long as we investigate carefully, we will definitely be able to uncover clues."
Liu Rengui took a sip of tea and said slowly: "In normal times, this kind of thing would not be difficult to find out, but it is different now."
He paused and looked at Cen Changqian: "Right now, the Jinwu Guards are being reorganized. The troops around Chang'an are being mobilized frequently. A cavalry of more than a hundred people left the camp without permission for three to five days. As long as someone deliberately conceals it, it really doesn't matter.
It’s easy to find out.”
Cen Changqian was stunned for a moment and quickly shut her mouth.
As Liu Rengui said, if the investigation continues, not to mention whether the ownership of the cavalry can be found out in the end, the Jinwu Guards on the left and right must be the biggest suspects.
The person responsible for the reorganization of Jinwu Guard was previously Fang Jun, but now it is Li Ji...
Regardless of whether these two people did this or not, as long as these two people are involved, it will be a huge trouble.
Therefore, it cannot be checked.
Not only can Fang Jun not be able to investigate, but even His Majesty cannot and does not dare to investigate.
Besides, what would happen even if it was found out?
Wei Wangtai is not dead...
Cen Changqian looked at Liu Rengui and then at Fang Jun, and her biggest intuition was that Jin Wuwei was the suspect.
But was it someone who took advantage of the frequent reorganization and mobilization of the Jinwu Guards and sent cavalry to assassinate Wei Wangtai, or was it simply Fang Jun who did it himself?
I can't guess, I don't dare to guess...
At this time, Fang Jun happened to see the last line of the military information and raised his head in shock: "The King of Wei...denies being assassinated?"
Liu Rengui nodded and said in a deep voice: "Luoyang officials did not dare to let King Wei enter the city at midnight, so they stayed outside the city for most of the night. Then King Wei denied being assassinated."
Fang Jun thought for a while and couldn't help laughing: "King Wei is really as powerful as the sea. He was chased and fled in panic, with his life hanging by a thread, but in the end he was able to swallow the grievances of the world. In order not to be involved in the imperial power
The struggle can be regarded as a painstaking effort, which is amazing."
I have to praise Li Tai's quick wit. A huge storm had begun to brew, but Li Tai managed to escape just before it became the "eye of the storm" to avoid being swept into the violent wind and rain.
Even if everyone in the world knows that Li Tai was assassinated, as long as Li Tai doesn't admit it, what can others do to him?
Li Tai himself said that he was not assassinated. Who else would dare to investigate?
Whoever investigates is harboring evil intentions and having evil intentions.
Of course, this is a smart approach, but it also requires swallowing the bad breath. His Highness, King Wei, must be extremely depressed.
Perhaps hundreds of thousands of dollars of wealth can alleviate this suffocation a little, making His Highness the King of Wei less uncomfortable...
Putting the general's feelings aside, Fang Jun said: "Ignore this matter. How is your situation at the Ministry of War?"
Liu Rengui finally entered the center as he wished and became the left minister of the Ministry of War, a properly powerful figure. However, the most tragic thing was Guo Fushan, the right minister of the Ministry of War. When Fang Jun was the left minister of the Ministry of War, Guo Fushan was the right minister, and Cui Dunli was the left minister of the Ministry of War.
, Guo Fushan is still the Right Minister, and now Cui Dunli is qualified to be the Minister of the Ministry of War. Logically, Guo Fushan should take advantage of the trend and become the Left Minister, but Liu Rengui suddenly appears in the air, and Guo Fushan is still the Right Minister...
Time is destiny, don't force it.
Liu Rengui said with a smile: "It went very smoothly. Cui Shangshu took care of me a lot, and everyone in the yamen was harmonious and friendly. I would also like to thank the commander for his support and cultivation."
The Ministry of War Yamen was Fang Jun's private area. Anyone who didn't fit in with others was removed. The top and bottom were almost monolithic. Even though Liu Rengui came by air, no one in the entire Yamen came to trouble him. The atmosphere was extremely friendly and the relationship was extremely harmonious. Since then,
Since becoming an official, Liu Rengui has never been such a worry-free official.
Fang Jun nodded and warned: "The Ministry of War is a good springboard. Whether you continue to enter the military aircraft department and become one of the commanders of the imperial army, or you go out to become a frontier official in a major protective palace, you will have great brilliance."
You are not qualified enough now, and your merits are not enough, so don’t be too ambitious, just accumulate qualifications in the Ministry of War. As long as there is an opportunity, I will give my full support."
Liu Rengui stood up, knelt down on one knee and gave a military salute, saying gratefully: "Thank you so much for your training, Marshal, and I am willing to die for you!"
Fang Jun waved his hand and said with a smile: "What does it mean to die for me? I have no intention of being a powerful minister, let alone a warlord, and I don't need to win over people's hearts. The reason why I support you is because you have the ability to become the pillar of the empire. Remember, you
You don’t need to be loyal to anyone, you just need to be loyal to the empire, to this land, and to the people of the world. If there ever comes a day when a body is shrouded in horse leather, I just hope that I will die for my country.”
Liu Rengui: "I will obey the commander-in-chief's teachings!"
Cen Changqian on the side was in agitated mood. Is this the marshal’s magnanimity?
He has no intention of being a powerful minister, let alone a warlord. He has a big heart and plans for the world. He is worthy of being an unparalleled national warrior.
Of course, he also keenly noticed Fang Jun's words, "You don't need to be loyal to anyone, you just need to be loyal to the empire, this land, and the people of the world." Does this mean that the commander-in-chief only has the country and the people in his mind?
So what is the status of the emperor in the heart of the commander-in-chief?
Do you only care about the country or this country, and don't care who sits on the throne?
It's a bit disrespectful...
However, isn’t that what a man should be like?
Dynasties rise and fall, imperial powers change, and emperors change one after another. No matter how wise and powerful the emperors are, they are just a handful of loess in the end. However, the Chinese state remains unchanged forever. The people on this land multiply from generation to generation and live endlessly. Yanhuang
The bloodline lasts forever.
Does it matter who the emperor is?
Important, but not that important. There will always be an emperor sitting in that position and ruling the world.
What is important is that not a single inch of the land left behind by our ancestors' cultivation and hard work can be lost. What is important is that the people on this land can live and work in peace and contentment, reproduce from generation to generation, and pass on the Chinese blood forever.
For a moment, countless thoughts passed through Cen Changqian's mind, and an idea began to gradually emerge from the clouds and gradually take shape.
He does not want to be a loyal minister of a certain person, but wants to be a loyal minister of this beautiful country, and be a loyal minister of hundreds of millions of people. He will protect this country forever with his flesh and blood and his meager strength, and protect all people of China.
In this way, the evaluation of one generation may not be very prominent, but in the history of China, it can shine through the ages and be praised forever.
