Chapter seven hundred and eighteenth show attitude
Only then did Zong Tang tell the story about Liu Changsheng and his son.
After hearing this, Yu Chichong couldn't help but sigh and said: "Actually, you don't need to tell me about this matter. Mr. Liu and I have a close relationship, not to mention that he once saved my life. I will do my best in this matter, but
..." At this point, he sighed again. He couldn't be of much help in this matter. The power of the court now lies in the hands of Li Chenzhou and the eldest princess Xue Lingjun. They may not be willing to give him this face.
.
At this time, Yuchi Binting came in from outside. While the three of them were chatting in the work shed, she went out to boil water and was about to come back to make tea. However, she saw a group of people approaching in the distance, so she came to report that someone was coming.
But it was Li Chenzhou, the commander-in-chief of the Yong army. After hearing the news, Yuchi Chong immediately asked the three of them to avoid it. He did not want his daughter to be seen by Li Chenzhou.
As soon as the three people left, Li Chenzhou and his men had already arrived. He asked his men to wait outside and walked into the shed alone. Before he entered the shed, he said loudly: "Is your teacher here?" He once charged the account in Yuchi.
Although it was not long before I obeyed the order, I had received the teachings of Yu Chichong after all, so it was natural to call him my mentor.
Yuchi stood up to greet him and said with a smile: "What day is it today? The Governor actually came in person?"
Li Chenzhou clasped his hands into his fists, bowed his head deeply in front of Yuchi Chong, and said respectfully: "My teacher, please bow to me as a student."
Yuchichong quickly stepped forward to hold his arm and said, "The Governor doesn't have to be so polite. It's really killing me."
Li Chenzhou said: "Once you are a teacher, you are always a father. A teacher is always the most respected person by students!" Only Li Chenzhou knew how true this was. He looked at the work shed with ventilation on all sides and sighed with emotion.
He said: "It's really hard here, and I have wronged my teacher."
Yuchichong smiled calmly and said: "There is nothing wrong with guarding the mausoleum of the Empress Dowager, not to mention that this is also my own choice."
Li Chenzhou said: "My mentor's filial piety towards the Empress Dowager is admirable, but Chen Zhou has just received the military information and battle report in Northern Xinjiang. Recently, the Black Hu people have been frequently deploying troops and generals. It seems that there will be another big move."
Yu Chichong sighed and said: "I am old, and I am not strong enough to guard Northern Xinjiang. It is time to let young people take on the important roles." He did not mean to say this in front of Li Chenzhou, in fact, in front of him
Deep down, he was very disappointed with Dayong's situation and had already thought of retiring. However, he also understood that it was impossible for the court to allow him to retire, especially at this time.
Li Chenzhou said: "The imperial court is at a time when it is employing people. My mentor is the pillar of the country, and his significance to Dayong is like the needle that fixes the sea. At this time, you must not say anything about retreating." These words were extremely sincere.
Yuchichong shook his head: "Captain, Dayong has many soldiers and generals, and good generals are constantly emerging among the younger generation. I am old and no longer what I used to be. To tell you the truth, I lost Yonglan Pass before.
I still blame myself to this day.”
Li Chenzhou said: "The Black Barbarians are coming with great force. Although the commander lost Yonglan Pass, he still defended the entire northern Xinjiang defense line. The imperial court can see it, and the emperor can also see it."
Yuchi sighed and said nothing.
Li Chenzhou said: "Shen Zhou has also heard about what happened to the commander on the way. We are currently launching a comprehensive investigation and must give justice to the commander."
Yuchi raised his eyebrows and whispered: "I wonder what the Governor is worth?" In fact, he knew it well, but he still asked it deliberately. He wanted to see how Li Chenzhou would explain this matter.
Li Chenzhou said: "I have identified the suspects who intended to assassinate the commander on the way. One of them is Feng Xingyun, known as the Sword Demon, and the other is Shangguan Yunchong, the former young leader of the Beggar Clan."
Yu Chichong said deliberately: "Oh? I thought it was the Black Hu people!"
Li Chenzhou secretly thought to himself that you were probably pretending to be confused because you suspected that I was behind the assassination, so you refused to tell the truth. Li Chenzhou said: "I am familiar with Shangguan Yunchong. He is a member of the Beggar Gang.
They were rebellious and were not tolerated by the Beggar Clan. They and their son were desperate in the south of the Yangtze River. They came to Yongdu to join me after being recommended by someone." At this point, he paused deliberately, but saw that Yu Chichong's expression was calm and did not reveal anything.
of surprise.
Li Chenzhou said: "I didn't expect that he would be harmful to the commander-in-chief. If the commander-in-chief makes any mistakes, Shen Zhou will find it difficult to forgive himself in his life."
Yuchi Chong said: "I don't know Shangguan Yunchong, and I have never had any dealings with the Beggar Clan before. I have no grudges against him, but I don't know why he came to me?"
Li Chenzhou said: "The sword demon Feng Xingyun was sent by King Xue Shengjing of Yan!"
Hearing the name of King Yan Xue Shengjing, Yuchichong couldn't help but his eyes lit up. However, he did not expect that although he and King Yan did not have a close relationship, there was no enmity. He could not understand why Xue Shengjing would send someone to assassinate him? Li Chenzhou
He frowned and said, "If King Yan does this kind of thing, wouldn't it mean that his relatives will hate him and his enemies will be happy?"
Li Chenzhou said: "The commander-in-chief must have heard about the recent events in the imperial city. The Empress Dowager falsely passed on the imperial edict to promote the eldest prince Xue Daohong to the throne. However, the late emperor's real last wish was for the seventh prince Xue Daoming to inherit the throne. The Empress Dowager only
He changed the inheritance of the throne based on his own preferences, but after the eldest prince came to the throne, he had the intention to kill the Empress Dowager because she had too many restrictions. The death of the Empress Dowager was not an accident. King Yan was ambitious and wanted to take advantage of the chaos to seize the throne.
Fortunately, I was discovered by the eldest princess in time, so I learned that the late emperor's edict had been tampered with. At the request of the eldest princess, I contacted the ministers to bring order to the chaos, fulfilled the late emperor's last wish, and now I have helped the seventh prince regain the throne."
Yu Chichong said: "I have never been interested in matters in the palace. As long as this country is in the hands of the Xue family and as long as the emperor's last wish is fulfilled, I will go all out to fight for Dayong."
Li Chenzhou said: "It was not Shen Zhou's intention to recall the commander from Northern Xinjiang. Shen Zhou always believed that Northern Xinjiang could not do without the commander. But the emperor was too suspicious, and Shen Zhou's painstaking efforts towards Dayong became an ulterior motive in his eyes.
, Today's chaos in Dayong must be stepped forward by someone. If Shen Zhou doesn't do it, Dayong will fall into chaos. Shen Zhou firmly believes that the emperor does not understand now, but time will prove everything and my trust in Dayong.
Loyal and loyal. For the sake of the late emperor's legacy and for Dayong to regain its former glory, what's the harm even if all the infamy is borne by Shen Zhou?" His words were impassioned and resounding.
Yuchi Chong was moved on the surface, but in his heart he didn't believe a word of Li Chenzhou's words. He sighed and said: "The Governor is right. If you are dedicated to Dayong, don't care too much about what others say. If the late Emperor
If you care about other people's rumors, how can you hand over military power to a foreigner like me? How can you trust me to entrust Northern Xinjiang with garrison? I can understand the current situation of the Grand Governor. In fact, for a general like me, it is basically impossible.
There is no need to consider internal affairs. Our primary responsibility is to defend Dayong and prevent the Black Hus from invading the Central Plains."
Yu Chichong's words are equivalent to making it clear to Li Chenzhou that I have no interest in your struggle for power, and I have no intention of siding with either of you. You fight for yours, and I am willing to defend your defense.
Li Chenzhou was so shrewd that he could certainly understand what Yu Chi Chong meant. In fact, he wanted Yu Chi Chong's attitude. Ever since he knew that Xue Daoming asked Yu Chi Chong to come and guard the imperial mausoleum, Li Chenzhou had understood that it must be Yu Chi Chong who had offended the new man.
Jun, refused to stand on the same ground as him to deal with him. The reason why Li Chenzhou took the initiative to come to meet him was also for this reason. He said with a smile on his face: "Commander, are you willing to continue to lead the northern Xinjiang army against Heihu?"
Yu Chichong cast his eyes towards the imperial mausoleum not far away and whispered: "I have already asked the emperor to observe filial piety in front of the mausoleum of the great empress dowager."
Li Chenzhou said: "The Empress Dowager's spirit in heaven must be felt by the commander-in-chief's filial piety. Things have priorities, and there must be choices between loyalty and filial piety. Wherever the emperor sinks the boat, he will decide what is good or bad!" These words fully show that he is now in the court.
The ability to cover the sky with one hand.
Yu Chichong secretly sighed in his heart, thinking how powerful Xue Shengkang was. A generation of overlords led Dayong to prosperity with his own abilities, but he never expected that not long after his death, the huge foundation he created would be tainted by others, and the royal family would gradually wither. With Xue Daoming's
If you want to fight against Li Chenzhou, you may not have enough strength.
Although Yu Chichong was a military commander, he had been involved in Dayong politics for many years and was familiar with the rules. This was the perfect time to put forward conditions. He had already hinted to Li Chenzhou that he would not participate in the court dispute. From Li Chenzhou's
Judging from his performance, he was satisfied with his attitude. Yuchi said: "I have something I would like the Governor to help me with."
Li Chenzhou nodded. Yu Chichong was also an unusual person. There was no reason to listen to him so much. This man was highly respected in the army. If he could remain neutral and defend the northern border for Dayong, he would be able to free up his hands to completely control Dayong's internal affairs.
The political situation, so Li Chenzhou never thought of getting rid of Yuchichong from the beginning. If Yuchichong was killed, the northern Xinjiang would be in chaos. Once the Black Hu invaded the south, he would have to temporarily put aside the things at hand to solve the primary crisis in the north.
, he smiled and said: "Commander, please tell me, as long as students can do it, they will do their best!"
Yuchi Chong said: "Liu Changsheng from Shennongshe is my savior. I heard that he was involved in the murder of the Empress Dowager. Let's not mention this for now. Liu Changsheng's son Liu Yucheng is my future son-in-law. I hope you will."
For my sake, the governor gave him a way out." Liu Yucheng has always admired Yuchi Binting, and Yuchi Binting also has a crush on him. Originally, Liu Changsheng also mentioned this matter, but Yuchi Chong was still unwilling to let go of his daughter, so he only said
Let them develop naturally and did not agree to their marriage. Now that Liu Changsheng is dead, he took the initiative to mention this matter. In fact, Yuchichong still feels guilty for this old friend. If he can rescue Liu Yucheng, he is willing to
