Chapter 1083: Handing over the military power (seeking a monthly ticket)
This is really a case of dying before you start!
Many of the main fighting factions in the court looked at Zhang Bangchang and others with a hint of anger, but their strength was too weak, and they dared not speak out in anger at the imperial edict.
Huang Xinren stood up and said with a smile: "What's the matter? Doesn't Duke Ming suspect that this imperial edict is a forgery?"
Li Qi asked: "At this time, shouldn't I be suspicious?"
Zhang Bangchang nodded with a smile and said: "What Duke Ming Guo said makes sense. At this time, we should be more cautious and ask Duke Ming Guo to distinguish the true from the false." He handed over the imperial edict as he spoke.
"Thank you Zhang Zhongshu for your understanding."
Li Qi took it and looked at it for a long time. In fact, he was obviously delaying time intentionally because the thing happened too suddenly and he had to slow down.
Huang Xinren waited for a long time, but couldn't bear it anymore, and said again: "It's just a few words, do you need to read it for so long?"
Li Qi ignored him, and after a moment, suddenly, his face relaxed, and he said: "Sexy, saucy, to be honest, I really miss the emperor's elegant and thin golden body.
It’s just forgetfulness.”
This guy is really a master of flattery! He won't miss any of this. Huang Xinren said: "The emperor's calligraphy is unique in the world. You can tell the truth from the false at a glance. I wonder if the Duke of Ming can tell the difference?"
"Of course, of course."
Li Qi nodded repeatedly and said: "The emperor's grace is so great, the emperor's grace is so great!"
Wu Min stood up and said: "Then please ask the Ming Dynasty Public Transport to send military symbols."
"Yes, yes, I almost forgot about this." Li Qi nodded and said, "Fortunately, I just prepared to send out troops, so I have the military talisman with me. Just wait a moment." He took it out of his arms as he spoke.
The military talisman came and was handed over.
Zhang Bangchang took it and opened it and saw that it was indeed a military talisman inside, but he did not show any excitement, because under the weird system of the Song Dynasty, the emperor's imperial edict and gold medals were above all else, as long as the emperor did not nod, even if
Even if you have the military talisman, you can't mobilize any troops. He handed it to Wu Min, then smiled at Li Qi and said: "No matter what, the defense of Kaifeng Mansion this time belongs to none other than the Duke of Ming Dynasty."
Li Qi smiled and said: "Zhang Zhongshu deserves the award. I just did my duty, so why bother? However, I have to go back to the military camp to give the soldiers an answer. After all, this imperial edict came too suddenly, and the soldiers are still waiting there."
.”
Zhang Bangchang nodded and said: "Of course, of course."
Li Qi turned to Zhao Kai who said nothing and said, "Prince Regent, I just want to take my leave first."
Zhao Kai didn't say much, didn't even turn around, he just said yes.
Li Qi suddenly said to Qin Hui: "Qin Hui, you go with me."
Qin Hui nodded and said, "Yes."
"Farewell."
"Ming Guo Gong, walk slowly."
Li Qi and Qin Hui left the main hall.
"Sir, why did you hand over your military power so quickly just now?" Qin Hui said hurriedly as soon as he left the hall, because this was so unlike Li Qi's style.
Li Qi sneered and said: "Don't hand over the military power? Humph. Do you want me to die? Tong Guan was much more powerful than I am now, why don't you just hand over the military power honestly? No shit.
Dare to let one go."
The military talisman in his hand was just borrowed from the Privy Council's military talisman. In the Song Dynasty, the Privy Council was under the direct control of the emperor. In other words, this power was given to the Privy Council by the emperor. Unless there were special circumstances, the Privy Council could only send troops with the approval of the emperor. Moreover,
The emperor still has a military talisman in his hand. The military power is still firmly in the hands of the emperor. The emperor asks you to hand over the military power. If you don't hand over the military power, then your military talisman will be of no use, because as soon as the emperor hands out the military talisman, your military talisman will be gone.
It is equivalent to being abolished. There is no difference between handing it over or not.
In fact, there is another reason why Li Qi handed over the military talisman so easily, and that is that all the leaders of the Forbidden Army were promoted by him. How could he worry that others could easily take it away? The difference is that without the military talisman, he would You can't mobilize the Zhong family army or Zhe family army, but then again, since the emperor has decreed to take back your military power, if you refuse to hand it over, then your military talisman will be useless, let alone deploying Zhong family army, Zhe family army will be mobilized. If the family army comes to attack you, you will have to burn incense.
Qin Hui is a smart man. After calming down, he quickly understood the truth and admired Li Qi very much. In such a sudden situation, he could still make the most correct choice, which is not something everyone can do. He did it and said: "Yes. I understand."
"But I don't understand."
Qin Hui asked in astonishment: "Why don't you understand, sir?"
Li Qi's eyes narrowed slightly and he said: "Judging from everything so far, someone must have tipped off the emperor. I haven't come to the court these days. I don't know what the situation is in the court. You should come every day." , don’t you notice it at all?” This was the reason why he asked Qin Hui to come out.
Qin Hui said with a hint of depression: "This is indeed the official's dereliction of duty. If the official had paid more attention, he might have been able to detect some clues earlier, so that the Lord would not be in such a passive situation."
Li Qi raised his hand and said: "I can't blame you for this. You have to take care of the people in the city, and it is inevitable that you are unable to do what you want."
"Thank you for your forgiveness, sir."
Qin Hui cupped his hands and said, "But there is one thing that I still can't figure out."
"explain!"
Qin Hui said: "In fact, at the beginning, the ministers of the court were always attacking the regent, not the adults, because it was the regent who forced them to live in the palace, gave up his mansion, and paid a large sum of money. , and your Excellency has been fighting bloody battles outside without harming their interests, and they have not even met each other. Even if they want to file a complaint with the Emperor, they should sue the Regent, not you, Your Excellency. However, this time the imperial edict comes down. , but he praised the regent and your Excellency, but did not do much to weaken the power of the regent. Instead, he asked you to hand over your military power, and removed your Excellency from the post of Kaifeng Magistrate. There is something very strange in this!"
Li Qi nodded, pondered for a while, and said: "Your analysis is very reasonable. In fact, I can't understand this point. I have kept a low profile enough. I have never had any trouble with them, let alone going to court. I don’t even have much contact with the regent, so he probably won’t point his finger at me, which is why I felt a little unprepared.”
Qin Hui shook his head and said: "Judging from their recent performances, I thought they must have written a secret letter to the emperor, but I think the contents were all aimed at the regent. As for why the emperor issued this imperial edict, there must be some reason for this. Something unexpected happened that we don't know about."
"I'm afraid it's not an accident." Li Qi suddenly laughed.
Qin Hui asked hurriedly: "Can you guess who did it?"
Li Qidao: "Enemies."
"enemy?"
Qin Hui opened his eyes. He suddenly took a breath of air and said, "Master, are you referring to the golden man?"
Li Qi shrugged and said: "Besides them, I really can't think of anyone else. Haha---."
At this point, he suddenly laughed.
Qin Hui asked in astonishment: "Why are you laughing, sir?" He also understood in his heart that this was obviously a counter-measure used by Wanyan Zongwang. This was much more serious than a complaint from a minister of the DPRK. How can you still laugh at this?
"ah?"
Li Qidao: "Did I laugh? Where did I laugh? You saw it wrong. Okay, now you go back to Kaifeng Mansion to tidy up. That is no longer your place. Go back to the Commerce Bureau. In fact, there is no need to go back.
Anyway, there’s nothing to do at the Commerce Bureau now, so go back and have a good rest, you’re really tired these days.”
I just realized that you were laughing, and you seemed to be laughing very happily. Could it be that I missed something wrong? Qin Hui didn't seem to pay attention to Li Qi's words and remained silent.
This guy likes to use his brain too much. Li Qi clicked his tongue and said: "Why are you still standing here? Hurry up and leave!"
"Oh, sir, please."
......．
Inside the Song Army’s base camp.
Li Qi sat on the throne, silent, while the holy eye turned in a circle in the hands of the generals.
As we turned around, we saw boundless anger in the eyes of every general.
This imperial edict was like a bucket of ice water pouring directly from their heads to the soles of their feet. Their hearts were frozen. Not to mention their morale, there was probably no air left. They were all so panicked that it was difficult to breathe!
Is this a sure thing? If you want to negotiate, go and negotiate as soon as possible. If you can't negotiate, let us fight to the death. Now our lives have been lost. If you want to negotiate again, then won't our lives be lost in vain?
.
But more than anything, they feel sorry!
Yue Fei couldn't help it any longer. There was a layer of mist in his eyes. He was so anxious that he almost cried. He stood up and said: "Commander Bu, now the Jin Army is in a dilemma. If we can go one step further, we will probably force the Jin Army into
It’s a desperate situation. Once this opportunity is lost, I’m afraid it will be difficult to encounter again.”
Wu Jie also said: "This opportunity was bought with blood by the soldiers. If we just give up, how can we explain it to our brothers?"
Li Qidao: "I know this, but what can I do? I have already handed over all my military symbols."
Niu Gao scratched his cheek, looked out the door, and said, "You seem to have never come out with the military talisman. I have never seen you take anything."
Upon hearing this, all the soldiers felt that Niu Gao's words were very reasonable.
Zhang Xian said: "I don't even know what a military talisman is."
Wu Lin also said: "I don't understand the military talisman very well. Do we have to obey the command of the military talisman?"
……．
Li Qi just thought it was funny. You guys are so abominable. If you want to encourage me to resist the decree, just say it clearly, and you will protect yourself if you do it. It's too treacherous. I won't be fooled.
He glared at Niu Gao, an unscrupulous fellow, and was about to speak when Yang Zaixing suddenly stood up and said: "Commander Bu, this emperor is clearly a foolish king. The people of Jiangnan were in dire straits when they made granite stones. But when the Jin people came over, he
He only knows how to run for his own life. Now he wants our blood to be shed in vain. Since he has abandoned us, why should we fight for this kind of person? Bu Shuai, let's just not do one thing and continue to do the opposite.
, I, Yang Zaixing, am willing to be Bu Shuai’s pioneer."
He was originally a bandit, and rebels were very familiar to him. Moreover, he had never taken Song Huizong seriously. Even if Song Huizong ordered him personally, he would not necessarily listen.
Just listen to Li Qi and Yue Fei.
Damn! This is a bit too direct for you.
PS: Xiaoxi's rhythm of three and four updates in a row for several days has become a bit messed up. I need to adjust it. I have two updates today and there should be an outbreak in the next few days at the end of the month. Can I ask for a monthly ticket in advance?
