The saint's face was ashen and his teeth were clenching.
Just now on the city gate tower, he was so complacent and hesitant and satisfied, but now he feels so regretful and resentful!
Yu family!
How dare they?!
Rebellious traitor!
They are all traitors!!
A raging fire burned in the saint's chest, almost burning him to death.
The blood all over his body rushed straight to his forehead, and his eyes were filled with blood.
"Feng Lang was greedy for military pay, massacred soldiers, caused Camp Xiao, and the Xicheng camp was almost overturned?"
"Yu Ye collaborated with the enemy and betrayed the country, falsely accused Shangfeng, and how many times did he put the border town into crisis?"
The saint grasped the memorial in his hand hard, wishing he could tear it into pieces.
He was not angry because of the "heinous crimes" committed by Feng Lang and Yu Ye.
Feng Lang was indeed guilty of embezzling Mo's military pay, forcing soldiers to attack the camp, and causing chaos in the military camp.
But it is also within the range that a saint can tolerate.
Not to mention Yu Ye.
It was indeed him who secretly reported General Yu for his greed for power.
Yu Ye is indeed making false accusations.
But, this is not important, after all, the result is what the saint expects most and is most satisfied with.
That is to say, the sage took Yu Ye's false accusation as evidence and tore down the general Yu Ji from the altar.
However, they took advantage of the situation and seized the Yu family, taking the opportunity to split the Yu family army.
To put it bluntly, the sage would not pursue Yu Ye's "false accusations", but would regard him as a usable chess piece and reward and promote him as appropriate.
Now some people say that Yu Ye made a false accusation. Isn't it a disguised way of accusing the saint of being shameless and foolish?
Of course, this is not the thing that makes the saint most angry and resentful.
What the saint is really angry about is that the person who wrote this memorial has a terrible heart!
Oh no, no!
What really made him furious and even fearful was the last sentence of the memorial——
"Your Majesty, Yu Shao, has captured Feng and Yu Er, and escorted them and their gang members to Beijing!"
Yu Shao is the name of Yu Er.
Feng Lang and Yu Ye fell into the hands of Yu Shao. Does this mean that the entire Northwest Army has returned to the hands of the Yu family again?
etc!
Yu Jiajun?
Great victory in the northwest?!
A terrible guess came into the saint's mind, and his heart became more and more panicked.
...The person who invaded Beirong Royal Court was Yu Er!
This is a fact that the sage has long guessed.
But he never expected that Yu Er only launched a massive counterattack against Beirong after integrating the Northwest Army.
The imperial court, mainly the emperor, knew nothing about the situation in the northwest.
The saint also generously rewarded Yu Er and other three deputy general managers.
The edict has been announced to the world.
At that time, the saint was still secretly proud of his "wisdom" and felt that he was not too clever in dealing with the problems of Yu Er and the Yu family.
Little did he know, he simply fell into the Yu family's "treacherous scheme"!
"On purpose! Yu Er must have done it on purpose!"
"He deliberately wrote a vague and unclear report and ignored the Yu family's battle report. He deliberately concealed the fact that he had arrested Feng Lang and Yu Ye. He deliberately submitted the charges against the two of them at the end. He -
—”
on purpose!
Everything was done intentionally by the Yu family!
He first made the sage misunderstand, and used the sage's words to recognize the achievements in the northwest, and also credited Yu Er with credit.
The news of the great victory in the northwest was spread throughout the world by the saints through the courts and various inns.
Then, Yu Er presented all the evidence of the crimes of Feng Lang and Yu Ye.
The two men are indeed guilty. The witnesses and physical evidence are there, and the evidence is conclusive.
Even if the saint wants to protect him, he can't.
In addition, if the saint wants to use the excuse of "the merits and demerits balance out" to excuse Feng and Yu, it will not work!
Because just five years ago, when Yu Ji died in battle, the saint wanted to confiscate the Yu family and exile them.
There were courtiers in the court interceding for the Yu family, probably because although Yu Ji made mistakes, he managed to defend the city in the end.
Moreover, General Yu’s meritorious deeds are shining brightly, and his merits and demerits are equal to each other.
However, the saint looked upright and upholding the law, "Gong is merit, fault is fault. How can they be offset?"
The saint refused to be accommodating, so the Yu family was confiscated and exiled for three thousand miles.
Five years have passed, but the words of the sage still ring in my ears.
And the saint dares to bet that even if he forgets, Yu Er will actively remind him——
Your Majesty, merit is merit and fault is fault, how can they be offset by each other?!
I request your Majesty to punish Feng and Yu according to law!
The saint will be blocked and have nothing to say, and will make himself even more passive.
...The only thing that allowed the saint to find an excuse for the whole incident was that Yu Er did not report it, and locked up Feng Lang and Yu Ye without asking for permission, and even escorted them directly to Beijing.
However, this can also be "quibbled":
First, the general will not accept the order of the foreign emperor. In order to stabilize the morale of the army and prevent a greater crisis, one of the rebels who caused the soldiers to mutiny and the other who had connections with foreign countries were captured together, all for the sake of stability in the northwest.
Maybe a little reckless, but it's not too arrogant.
Secondly, and most importantly, Yu Er had just achieved such great military exploits and directly disabled Beirong.
Maybe not as good as Champion Hou, but to Daliang, he was like a god of war.
For such a meritorious figure, the saint did not promise to reward him properly, but instead severely punished him for a "little mistake"——
Tsk tsk, the world has heard that the saint still wants to have a good reputation as a saint king.
And the most important point is that Yu Er dared to lock Feng and Yu two people and reintegrate the huge northwest army, so he must have something to rely on.
If the saint issued the decree easily and ended up separatizing the northwest, he might also be stigmatized as "the king forced his ministers to rebel."
Saint, I can't afford it.
He didn't want to be burdened either.
"What a good Yu Er, he actually put me on fire."
The saint cursed repeatedly in his heart, but he was very passive now and was in a dilemma.
The important ministers in the hateful court seemed unable to see his dark face. They either continued to discuss the great victory in the northwest happily, or they accused Feng Lang and Yu Ye of their crimes with righteous indignation.
saint:……
My heart is so stuffed!
I really want to walk away.
But, he can't.
Taking a deep breath and suppressing the anger in his chest, the saint squeezed out a sentence through his teeth: "Bring Feng Lang and Yu Ye to Dali Temple for a good trial."
"...In addition, the army cannot be without generals for a day. We promoted General Li Sheng of the Hussars to be the deputy general manager of the Northwest Road. He will rush to the northwest today and lead the northwest army together with Yu Shao!"
In the end, the saint was unwilling to give in and did not follow the Yu family's wishes and directly promoted Yu Er to general manager.
He also hired a deputy general manager. It would be best if he could decentralize power. Even if he couldn't, he would still disgust Yu Er and add some trouble to the Yu family.
This approach of saints is more about venting anger and venting anger.
It has no actual use at all.
Moreover, the saint seemed to be very strong, but everyone in the court, including himself, knew that in this game between the saint and the Yu family, the saint lost.
Because regardless of the name, the real effect is: the Yu family reoccupied the northwest and became the king of the northwest in name only.
But instead of holding accountable or punishing Yu Er, the saint acquiesced!
well!
The Yu family has been in decline for five years and has risen again!
Yes, strong!
The Yu family now is more powerful than the Yu family in the past.
You know, in the past hundred years, although the Yu family also occupied the northwest, they have always adhered to their duties as ministers.
Not only did he leave his family in the capital, even if the imperial court deployed men in the army, the generals of the past dynasties would not dare to do anything.
Unlike today's Yu Er, who directly brought Feng Lang and Yu Ye to Beijing without any respect for the saint.
This seems to be the behavior of powerful ministers.
Unfortunately, the court had no choice but to send a "deputy general manager" to infiltrate him like the emperor did.
Because there are too many crises in Daliang.
The northwest border is stabilized, but there are still strong enemies in the southwest, northeast and other places.
In addition, there are several feudal lords.
The saint has always wanted to be a famous king, and he was extremely eager to monopolize the king's power.
The sage wanted to consolidate military power by establishing checks and balances in the northwest. Unfortunately, he has failed now!
In the decentralization of power in the court, one prime minister became multiple, in order to concentrate the monarch's power, and it seems to be going well for the time being!
They cut down the vassals in the local area to prevent the princes and kings from becoming big, and then separatized the local areas... and then big things happened.
Just after the first day of the lunar month and the Lantern Festival Lantern Festival was not yet huge, news came from the southwest.
The King of Shu killed the auxiliary officer sent by the imperial court and directly rebelled.
King Annan followed suit and declared Annan's independence.
The kings of Yan and Jin all responded.
As soon as the northwest of Daliang was stabilized, a more serious Four Kings Rebellion broke out.
War breaks out and natural disasters occur frequently.
The beams that were once full of flowers and peaceful and prosperous seemed to have been changed overnight, showing the decadence and decline of the dynasty at the end.
The people were in dire straits, and generals, big and small, occupied land one after another and became kings.
They were nominally under the leadership of the imperial court, but in fact they acted independently.
Some, under the guise of countering rebellion, actually expand their territory.
For a time, Daliang was completely in chaos.
The saint was so worried that he no longer had the intention to pay attention to the northwest.
Compared with the chaotic Central Plains, the northwest seems to be more stable and worry-free.
At least the Yu family did not rebel or take the opportunity to expand their territory.
They just stayed in the northwest, opening up wasteland and raising horses.
The cities in the northwest also paid taxes on time and in quantity.
Compared with those chaotic princes, kings, and warlords, the Northwest actually appears to be extremely loyal and virtuous.
He Tiantian:...As long as you are happy!
Anyone who is familiar with history will understand the principle of accumulating food and becoming king slowly.
Moreover, being a traitor and a traitor is really not that easy.
The Yu family has been loyal and loyal for generations and cannot bear the reputation of being a traitor.
It is better to continue farming in the northwest and train more troops. When the critical moment comes, it will not be too late for the Yu family to send troops!
The Central Plains was in turmoil, and there were so many refugees. He Tiantian took the opportunity to recruit them.
First, it gives the poor people at the bottom a way to survive.
Secondly, it is also to accumulate strength for the growth of the northwest.
Among the many refugees, there was a thin young man with a sallow face and thin body, but a burning light burst out from his eyes——
northwest!
I'm going to the northwest!
Everyone has abandoned me, but my mother-in-law will never leave me alone!
Dear friends, the second update is a little late! Please forgive me.
