Chapter 271 Idle Cloud Wild Crane

When the army turned back to Guanzhong, Qin Rui did not return to Luoyang with the army and accepted the reward. He just stopped and stayed in Chang'an. After something happened, he left, and hid his merits and fame.

At the same time, I wrote a letter to Emperor Wu, saying that he was so ill that he could not bear the command. He specially asked to resign as General of the Flying Cavalry Guard and General of Zuo Yingyang, and continued to be filial to his father Ding You.

Not only did Emperor Wu not expect that his move would be taken, even those who were close to him on weekdays would not expect that he would give up his power at this time and give up his power.

Because he was afraid of being accused of neglecting the heroes, Emperor Wu specially asked Nei Shi Di Renjie to visit Chang'an and brought a large number of medicinal materials to show the prosperity of the holy family.

Di Renjie went to the Duke's Mansion and drank two pots of tea. Qin Rui, who was slowly returning, took Li Chongrun and Qin Feng's two little kids back home. He ordered Li Chongrun to take his younger brother to the backyard. Qin Rui stepped into the main hall and greeted Di Renjie.

"Di Gong, why are you here? Are the people below unable to sit still?" Qin Rui, who took a sip of tea and held the tea cup, asked lightly.

Qin Rui said that these people were basically civil servants controlled by Di Renjie. After Li Xian left like this, the civil servants would naturally panic, which was expected.

"That's not. Although the death of the prince has caused a great blow to everyone, they are all sensible people and they know what to do."

This made Qin Rui feel much more at ease. At this time, what he was afraid of was that people were uneven and had no end to the future. That was not to say that the stalls were separated, but the stalls were separated.

"It is obvious that I want to review it. I am careless and underestimated those people's determination to fight for the crown prince. Otherwise, the prince would not have died here and would have lived a peaceful life in Fangzhou!"

Di Renjie felt very guilty. He made a promise in front of Qin Rui for the sake of Li Xian's crown prince, so he would definitely be foolproof. On the day Qin Rui returned to court, he would handle the matters inside and outside the palace quickly.

Now, Qin Rui won the battle, but after returning to Beijing, he saw the grave, which was unreasonable. Di Renjie was also an old man. He played with the eagle for his whole life, but finally let the eagle play. Who would be convinced?

Moreover, the tail is very clean. The relevant grooms, entourages, palace maids, and guards are either killed by the angry Martial Emperor or died in the prison of the Three Laws. This makes you unable to determine who the manipulator behind the scenes is.

When taking the stolen person, the case is to take evidence. Even if there are only three or five people who suspect that they are vested interests, there is no way to obtain evidence.

Emperor Wu was very secretive about this matter and was unwilling to investigate it from the bottom of her heart because she knew that no matter what the result was, she had to deal with another one.

So I specially issued an order to the three judicial departments, and the death of Prince Li Xian was given up and not investigated. This also added countless difficulties to Di Renjie's investigation. If you can't get on the table, what else can you check? Even if you find it, it will be a question whether Emperor Wu recognizes it or not.

Alas, sighed, Qin Rui waved his hand and said in a deep voice: "Duke Di, you and all of you are considering the country of the Tang Dynasty, I can understand this."

"If such a thing happens, no one thinks. Everyone has their own destiny. Wealth is in heaven. If you want to blame him, you will blame him for not having such a blessing. It is all the number of days."

Qin Rui said all this, but Di Renjie couldn't explain too much. Then he conveyed the meaning of Emperor Wu and talked about his analysis of the court.

At this time, it is right to quit military power. After all, his relationship with Li Xian was too tight. If he didn't make a gesture, it would be difficult to truly reassure Emperor Wu.

But Di Renjie is more worried about the Flying Cavalry Guard and Zuo Yingyang Guard. If the military power is handed over, it will be difficult to take it back. Moreover, when the new coach takes office, he will definitely change his confidant in a critical position, and it is difficult to guarantee that other generals and schools will not betray Qin Rui.

The army of these two guards is the lifeblood of everyone and their last capital. If it is lost like this, wouldn’t it be a waste of money?

"Di Gong, Feiqi Guard, and Zuo Yingyang Guard's generals and officers have followed Rui for many years, and their hearts are like iron stone, so how can wealth and honor be moved."

"Besides, the generals under Rui's command are now in their own line, including many generals and schoolmen of the Flying Cavalry Guard and Zuo Yingyang Guard, all serving in the two Protectorate Offices of Anxi and Beiting."

"Even if there are people who are blind and want to master these two armies, he has to consider the reactions of this general."

When he was in the Western Regions, Qin Rui thought of a way out. If he died, he would leave behind the people from Beiting and Anxi, and he could save his strength and think that he would use it later.

But if the disaster fails, even if the individual forces are done, they don’t have to care. They put their left hand on the Western Regions and the right hand on the two guards. This general is the same as the wrong one.

"Di Gong, let them fight! Isn't it just a crown prince? When they are exhausted, let's take action!"

Of course Di Renjie understood what Qin Rui meant. Now they were completely at a disadvantage. Even if they fought, they would not be able to fight back. It would be better to keep a low profile and stay completely dormant.

From the moment he gave up his military power, Qin Rui was equivalent to telling the civil and military officials in the court that Li Xian was gone, and his determination to compete was gone. In such a huge palace, you should fight and grab, whatever you want!

"I understand, just follow what you said!"

He looked up and down at Qin Rui, who had lost weight, and continued: "It's good to rest. You have suffered a lot of injuries over the years. It's not easy to get this opportunity."

That's what Di Renjie thought, but that's not what he thought in his heart. The battle in the Western Regions also changed the original pattern of the court. Wei Daijie was dismissed from prime minister and sent to Dengzhou as governor.

The position of the right prime minister of Wenchang may have to fall on Duke Deng, Cen Changqian. The vacant Xia Guan Shangshu also needs to be selected among the generals who led the army.

As the commander of the Northern Expedition and the Western Expedition, Qin Rui, although he was young, made great contributions. If he had not been hit this time, the position of the Xia Guan Shangshu would have been his.

Now that the military power of the two guards has been handed over, it is even more impossible to fight for this position. So the one who is about to emerge is Wang Xiaojie, Quan Shancai and others, which is a pity.

"Di Gong, don't think too much. Being fat is not fat first. Let's ride a donkey and read the songbook. Rui doesn't believe they have many years of luck to leave."

While talking, Qin Rui also picked up a document from the case and handed it to Di Renjie, urging him to find out the traitors in the court. Because during the Western Expedition and Northern Expedition, he discovered from the details that the enemy knew the mobilization of the Zhou army. If he had not used military forces and liked to deal with danger and acted without restraint on form, it would be hard to say what the battle could be like.
