Xiao Han, the county magistrate of Dunhuang City, naturally knew him, but he would not tell Su Dingfang even to death.
Yes, what happened tonight was Xiao Han's impromptu idea.
But bringing Su Dingfang together to help the magistrate of Dunhuang City get rid of the cancer of the temple was definitely not just because he wanted to have some leisure time, or he just wanted a thug.
After all, if you really need thugs, dogs are definitely a hundred times better than whiskers!
The reason why an originally simple thing has become as complicated as it is now! The fundamental meaning of Xiao Han is not to harm Su Dingfang, but to save him, or help him!
Li Jing is about to be in trouble.
Even a blind person can probably see this!
And as a super boss of the military, a general who controls the world's troops! The consequences of his misfortune will definitely not only involve him.
At this time, as Li Jing's right-hand man, Su Dingfang, who performed extremely well in this battle, seemed a little embarrassed.
After all, through these days of getting along, Xiao Han has already understood: Su Dingfang is not Zhang Baoxiang! It is impossible for him to abandon Li Jing, a big tree that is about to fall, and climb up the high branches of other people's homes just because of other people's win over him.
Loyal, steadfast, unswerving!
This may be Su Dingfang’s shining point as a person, but it is definitely not an advantage as an official!
Those who are officials should think of danger! Think of retreat!
Even Fang Xuanling, the prime minister at the time, once said: If you think of danger, you seek peace; if you think of retreat, you seek progress!
But it is obvious that Su Dingfang, who has already stood in the position of general, does not have these two thoughts in his heart! Until now, he is still a simple warrior with a simple mind. He is stupid and naive, and does not realize that the crisis is approaching.
If Xiao Han hadn't happened to think of this today.
What if Xiao Han hadn't just had such a ready opportunity.
Perhaps after Su Dingfang returns to Chang'an, he will still be as recorded in history: after this battle, he will disappear completely and will not be promoted for twenty years!
It was not until six years after Li Zhi came to power that he discovered this peerless general in the corner, and he became known as the God of War Su Dingfang.
So in this world, those who care about you may not necessarily be sincerely good for you!
And those who say bad things to you, or even try to trick you, do not want to harm you!
Wonderful things come from one heart!
——————
The overnight chaos in Dunhuang quickly spread to Chang'an through various channels.
The officialdom of Chang'an, which had been somewhat peaceful a while ago, immediately became turbulent again because of this incident.
Xiao Han was "not careful" in what he did this time. Although most of the monks were beaten to death by the angry residents, or were thrown into the raging fire to atone for their sins, only one fat novice was left who had witnessed everything.
On the second day after the army left Dunhuang, this man was interrogated by the Dunhuang County Magistrate and truthfully told everything he saw.
As a result, a piece of news that a general on an expedition wantonly massacred monks spread in Chang'an in an instant following the words of the Dunhuang County Magistrate!
As the "culprits" this time, Xiao Han and Su Dingfang immediately became the target of public criticism!
As soon as this news came out, including the censors who had broken arms and legs and rested at home because of "accidental", they were even more excited than during the Chinese New Year. Even if they were lying on a stretcher, they had to be carried to issue two impeachments.
Memorial!
For a time, these two people even overshadowed Li Jing and became a new wave of influential figures.
However, what depressed those extremely excited censors was that as the emperor, Li Shimin always ignored their memorials and neither reprimanded them nor punished Xiao Han and Su Dingfang. He pretended not to notice them.
Those impeachment memorials.
If you don’t deny it, then it is affirmative!
If there is no punishment, then the impeachment is not strong enough!
After careful observation for a few days, a few "smart" censors thought they had figured out the reason, so they began to impeach the two people even more intensely.
From not returning to the camp at night to beating up his subordinates, they almost didn't write down in the memorial the fact that the two of them urinated and refused to go to the toilet.
This is not enough!
Several people who had a relationship with Xiao Han before Liang Zi even turned over the old accounts, saying that Su Dingfang sent troops to plunder, and Xiao Han fled in fear of the enemy. Anyway, as long as he went to court, Li Shimin would definitely have two people on the table.
There are tall piles of impeachment memorials, one for the impeachment of Xiao Han and the other for the impeachment of Su Dingfang. They are square and square, with neat workmanship...
——————
In the eastbound army, Su Dingfang was lying on his back on an oxcart filled with grain and grass, next to his fellow sufferer, Xiao Han!
That's right, the censors' crowd tactics finally worked.
In the excitement of the crowd, Li Shimin had no choice but to issue an edict, severely reprimanding the two daring people, and demoted them to logistics officials. From then on, they were accompanied by pots, pans, mules, horses and livestock.
"Hey, it's over now!" Su Dingfang spat out the straw in his mouth, and sighed deeply, then turned his head faintly and looked at Xiao Han beside him, with unspeakable sorrow in his eyes.
Who can understand: a general who has to sit in a high official position, have to ride a horse, and has to return to Chang'an to be respected by the people and rewarded by the emperor? Suddenly fell from the clouds to the bottom of the valley overnight and turned into a big-headed soldier in charge of food and livestock?
Su Dingfang was so arrogant about this disparity. If it were someone else, he would have vomited three liters of blood and died after being hit by a bullock cart.
However, despite the innocent disaster, Su Dingfang did not hold any grudge against Xiao Han. Even because of this incident, the relationship between the two became a little closer. The unfamiliarity and estrangement between them before was also silently eliminated.
Disappear without breath.
Perhaps Su Dingfang once asked himself: Even if Xiao Han hadn't been there, if he had seen such a thing himself, the result would have been the same!
Even his handling method will be more decisive than Xiao Han! If it really falls into his hands, those bastard bald donkeys will definitely not survive to be beaten by the people in the city.
"What the hell? Isn't this good?"
Lying on the tall pile of grain and grass, Xiao Han put a rough-made straw hat on his head casually, yawned and said: "There are cars to sit in and people to drive. Even the fruits and melons sent by the passing towns are brought to us."
My belly, what else do you want to ask for?"
“Credit to labor and capital!”
After listening to Xiao Han's words, Su Dingfang's eyes suddenly widened. He sat up from the haystack in a "snap", pinched Xiao Han's neck and shook it violently: "Repay the credit of labor and capital, and the money of labor and capital!"
"Ahem, stop shaking, you're going to die!"
"Die! If you die, you pester, you can save yourself the trouble of harming others!"
"Think clearly! Ahem! Even if I die, you can't get back your credit and money!"
"Labour and management don't care! Even if you can't come back, labor and management will strangle you to death first!"
"Isn't it just money? I'll give it! I'll give it!"
"You give? You give! How much do you give?"
