Chapter 9 Court Meeting
It turned out that Changsun Wuji had a very good impression of this young man. He was brave, nostalgic, did not forget his roots, and was simple in the heart of the emperor. He felt that he was a talent that could be cultivated.
But he knew from Changsun Chong's mouth that he met Changle again and again, which aroused his disgust. What good could come from being alone and alone and meeting Changle frequently?
Changle is his niece and daughter-in-law, whom he has loved since childhood. He cannot bear to say it, and cannot say it. This is not only related to the face of the Tian family, but also the honor and disgrace of the eldest grandson family, so he can only choose Du Jing.

Coincidentally, Dali Temple found out that on the night of Lawyer Pei's death, Wuhou had interrogated Du Jing near the Duke's Mansion. Dali Temple determined that he was suspected of committing a serious crime. Changsun Wuji was just adding fuel to the flames.
When the saint hesitated, he added a little weight.
But Changsun Wuji, who always prided himself on being smart, never thought that his selfishness would arouse strong opposition from the military commanders, and even be exploited by others, turning him into a ladder for others.
In particular, Wei Ting, the servant of the Huangmen, said something ambiguous: When a young man succeeds, he will inevitably act recklessly. Maybe he will kill someone because of his will. In the final analysis, it is virtue that is not worthy of his place. He was promoted too quickly and lacked discipline.<
/p>
These words completely angered Li Daliang. As Du Jing's old commander, he was naturally most concerned about the speed of "raising".
Holding the wat board, he stood up immediately: "You raised it too quickly? Saying this can only prove that you have no knowledge!"
"Since the Qin State implemented the practice of rewarding merit in farming battles, the armies of all dynasties have used military merit as the basis for promotion."
After bowing to Li Shimin who was sitting on the dragon throne, Li Daliang continued: "The saint also rarely joined the army, and led our Tang army to conquer the world. If I had followed the tone of Wei Shilang, there would be no Tang Dynasty in this world."
Wei Ting had no interest in who Du Jing was or what he had done. He was just agreeing with the emperor. Seeing that the sage had issued the decree and Changsun Wuji was involved, he made it a certainty. Someone like him who came from the old East Palace should be less sensitive and in the center is
I can’t survive.
But I didn't expect that Li Daliang was so angry that he directly slapped such a big hat on him and brought the saint out. Isn't this a strong argument? Can a mere fifth-grade general be compared with a wise and powerful saint?
Since Li Daliang is so unkind, don't blame me for playing dirty tricks. Taking advantage of the omissions in his words, Wei Ting sneered and replied: "Mr. Wuyang County, don't make random comparisons. Can he be the same as a saint?"
”
Li Daliang was a military commander, so of course he was not as evil-minded as a civilian official, but he was not a fool. How could he not have heard that Wei Ting was praising Du Jing's death?
He immediately knelt down, raised his wat with emotion, and said: "Your Majesty, Du Jing has been alone since he was a child, begging for food on the street. I felt sorry for him, so I recruited him to serve in the army. He was only thirteen years old that year.
”
"Du Jing served in Liangzhou for five years and has been working as an errand in the forward battalion. He has accumulated merits from an ordinary soldier to a guerrilla general and served as the deputy general of the forward battalion. These are all things he paid for with scars on his body."
"Your Majesty, you are also the commander-in-chief of the army. There are also many colleagues in the palace who have fought in battle. Who doesn't know that the job of the forward battalion is to use your forehead to hit the enemy's arrows!"
If a thirteen-year-old child has a father, a mother, and someone to look after him, can he work in a high-casualty, high-risk team for five years?
You can imagine how difficult it is for him to survive more than a hundred battles in the past five years.
Isn't it unfair for Dali Temple to treat a young general like this who joined the army at a young age and only knew how to be loyal to his emperor and serve his country? How much will it chill the hearts of the soldiers who guard the country's borders when he returns to Liangzhou?
And General Youwuwei Cheng Zhijie said even more openly: "Suspicion? This is a very good statement. What is suspicion, that is, we don't know whether he is the real murderer."
"Oh, are you suspected of committing the crime if you pass by? The day you, Wei Ting, die, everyone who passes by your mansion will be suspected of committing the crime, right?"
Cheng Zhijie was a bandit, and he had no bottom line in doing things. He could do anything. If he really did something secretly, the emperor would not punish the old generals of King Qin for Wei Ting, a surrendered minister.
Seeing that Wei Ting's face turned blue and white, brothers Xue Wanjun and Xue Wanche also raised their wats and went out of work. In Chishuiyuan, the two brothers owed Qibi Heli and Du Jing's life. If they don't stand up at this time, they will be in trouble for the rest of their lives.
Not at ease.
Tuyuhun is located on a plateau and a desert. When the armies of Xikai Road first entered the plateau, they fought on ice and snow. They ate and slept in the open air, with people drinking ice and horses gnawing snow. It was extremely difficult. In the summer, desert and Gobi stretched as far as the eye could see, and the soldiers could only endure hunger.
Thirst.
Fallen people can be seen everywhere on the march, and in this case, falling means death. It was under this tragic scene that the armies of Saikaidō marched towards death.
Fighting under such extreme conditions, especially those in the front line, must not only be extremely brave, but also be brave and loyal. Otherwise, the commander-in-chief would not dare to put the lives of the entire army on them. These people are using their own
Life, open the way for the army.
If we say that such people who have experienced the test of life and death are unreliable, they are the murderers of the prince-in-law and traitors who have disobedience to the imperial court. Then in this palace, there are only those who are talkative and occupy high positions without any merit.
I can’t believe it even more.
The words of the Xue brothers immediately aroused a lot of resonance. Generals such as Hou Junji, the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, and Qibi Heli, the general of the Left Army Guard who had participated in the Western Expedition, all came out to support the proposal.
Time has reached a deadlock.
Fang Xuanling, the prime minister in charge of military affairs, glanced at the gloomy-looking Changsun Wuji, and then at the general Li Jing who closed his eyes to rest. Lao Fang really couldn't figure out how they could hold up against such a small general.
.
Of course, Fang Xuanling was more curious about what kind of charm this young general had that could make Li Jing, who kept the door shut, make an exception for him.
Oh, Fang Xuanling has figured it out. Asking for justice for the young general is just a pretense. They are here to settle the score.
And this account probably starts with the Western Expedition.
During the Western Expedition, Gao Zhengsheng, the general manager of Yanze Road, delayed the military flight because he did not arrive on time. He was blamed by Li Jing and held a grudge.
After returning to the court, he colluded with Shi Tang Fengyi, the governor of Guangzhou, to falsely accuse Li Jing of treason. This was not the first time that Li Jing was suspected. Every time he went to war and returned to the court, rumors about his rebellion never stopped.
The sages Sun Wuji and Wei Ting investigated the matter. During the investigation, all the generals of Xihaidao were under thorough investigation and were often suspected and questioned.
Although it was eventually investigated and Gao Zhengsheng was sentenced to a reduced death penalty for false accusations, he was exiled to the frontier. But Li Jing was really heartbroken this time, so he closed the door and guarded himself against guests, although relatives were not allowed to enter.
Although it has been almost a year since the incident, the generals of Xikai Road all held their breath. Du Jing was a soldier of Xikai Road, and catching him would give the eager generals an excuse to vent their dissatisfaction. Can we not work together?
