In the Anqing Palace, the snow has stopped, and the orchids in the palace garden don't have a single leaf, but the spores with scales on the branches have swollen, and they are just waiting for the first ray of spring sun to shine, and the buds of the flowers stand out. , spring is imminent, and spring is already brewing in Chang'an City, where the cold wind is still raging. Book mi group 2
However, the atmosphere in Tunyun Hall where Li Zuoguo was at this time was surprisingly solemn. Li Zuoguo was reviewing the memorial expressionlessly behind the table. Zheng Chunyun went up from time to time to refill Li Zuoguo's tea. If it weren't for a row of people standing opposite Li Zuoguo, This is probably the best aspect of a diligent king. []
The people standing below include Ping'an Marquis Zhang Wujiang, Zhang Jun, Sikong Chutianshu, Sima Duan Tianhe, and Li Hu. These powerful figures in the eyes of others in Chang'an City are standing honestly at this time. Including Li Zuoguo's elders Zhang Wujiang, Chu Tianshu and Duan Tianhe had slightly better faces, while the other three, including Li Hu, all had pale faces.
Zhang Jun's face was swollen like a bun on both sides. He didn't know whether it was because there were too many braziers or because he was nervous. Zhang Jun's sweat had soaked the clothes inside. At this time, his body was so greasy that it felt uncomfortable, but with the feeling in his heart Compared with the fear, this discomfort is really nothing.
"Give Ping An that chair. It's too old to stand all the time." Li Zuoguo ordered. Zheng Chunyun took a chair and placed it next to Zhang Wujiang. After all, Zhang Wujiang is Xiaoyun's father, and Li Zuoguo is not good either. Lao asked the elders to stand, and the five of them had been standing there since they arrived. Li Zuoguo ignored them and reviewed the memorial as if no one was around for more than half an hour.
After all, the other four were younger, so it didn't matter. Zhang Wujiang was originally frightened, and because of his old age, his feet were a little numb. Only then did Li Zuoguo give up a chair. Zhang Wujiang shook his head and wanted to speak. But when he saw Li Zuoguo lowering his head to write again, he closed his mouth and sat down honestly.
Zhang Wujiang was notified at home and asked to go to the palace quickly. He was summoned by the Holy Spirit and entered the palace inexplicably. If he hadn't met his son with a bruised nose and face at the entrance of the palace, he might not have known why Li Zuoguo came to him. He learned what happened Afterwards, Zhang Wujiang, who had never seen much of the world, was almost paralyzed with fear. His son was such a troublemaker that he actually made Li Zuoguo unhappy.
Li Zuoguo was regarded as an extremely powerful person in Zhang Wujiang's heart since he was a child. He was already mature at a young age and was invincible in all battles. This majesty was achieved through fighting. Zhang Wujiang became rich and powerful by relying on his daughter, and he was actually very satisfied. But today, when Li Zuoguo was angry, Zhang Wujiang felt it was difficult to breathe. He didn't know what Li Zuoguo would do with his son. He only had such a son, would he kill Zhang Jun? Zhang Wujiang has always been afraid in his heart.
Li Zuoguo ignored the people in the room and kept minding his own business. Only when he closed the last memorial did Li Zuoguo raise his head and look at the people standing below.
"Li Hu, you have been with me for a long time, and you have always made people feel at ease when doing things. Now this is how you repay me?" Li Zuoguo said nothing.
He moved, but the meaning behind his words made Li Hu, who had been standing at the end of the team with his head bowed, almost fall to his knees.
Li Hu lowered his head and said, "Your Majesty, this minister is incompetent. Please punish me."
Li Zuoguo stared at Li Hu. Li Hu knew that Li Zuoguo was looking at him without raising his head. Cold sweat suddenly flowed from his forehead. He did not dare to say anything else, but took the responsibility himself.
"Oh! So you still know that you did something wrong? I didn't even know that the property under my name was renamed. The punishment is certain, but, Li Hu," Li Zuoguo suddenly shouted, and Li Hu was startled. He looked at Li Zuoguo: "Do you know who owns such a huge industry that you are in charge of? It belongs to me. It's Li, not Zhang. What kind of bullshit person can let you hide it from me? I still have the final say in this country. "
Li Zuoguo's sudden rage made Chu Tianshu and Duan Tianhe shiver down their backs, not to mention Zhang Wujiang and his son. Li Zuoguo's words really shocked the father and son out of their wits. Zhang Wujiang quickly stood up from his chair and said Don't say anything, standing with your son who is like sifting chaff. 15
"Li Hu knew he was wrong." Li Hu gritted his teeth and said these words.
Li Zuoguo was even more angry: "Li Hu, you still don't know where you went wrong? Because someone is related to me, you can let him do whatever he wants? Does that mean someone wants my head? As long as you, Li Hu, think it belongs to me Are you going to turn a blind eye to the people around you?" Li Zuoguo's words were serious.
Li Hu fell to the ground and cried: "Your Majesty, Li Hu is loyal to His Majesty. He will never do such a thing. Li Hu did not take care of His Majesty's things. Please ask Your Majesty to kill Li Hu."
Li Zuoguo remained silent. After a while, he waved his hand and said: "You go out, you will be fined for one year, and you will receive ten sticks from the family. Your position will not be moved for the time being. Go back and think about it, where did you go wrong?"
 Li Zuoguo seemed furious, but the punishment was very light. Li Hu thanked him with tears, did not dare to speak, and retreated. Li Zuoguo looked at Zhang Wujiang and said, "Hang Ping An, what do you think your title means? I'll give it to you." The title of Marquis of you is for you to enjoy peace and happiness and not to be taken advantage of by others. Your background determines your vision. It is not easy to get out of some things if you get involved in them. Why don't you use your brain? Are you the same as your son who doesn¡¯t know the heights of heaven and earth? Little Marquis, it¡¯s really interesting that your position is not hereditary.¡±
Zhang Wujiang was frightened. He had always been afraid of Li Zuoguo, a young guard who seemed to be able to see through everything. He had been very afraid of Li Zuoguo ever since he was in Shule. When Li Zuoguo said this sharply, Zhang Wujiang was so frightened that he wanted to kneel down like Li Hu. , but Li Zuoguo drank: "Stand, you are my elder, even if I am wrong, I will not let you kneel down, just stand."
"It would be a lie to say that Zhang Wujiang didn't know about his son's little tricks. It's just a small farmer's consciousness. He felt that it was only natural for his son to take some of his brother-in-law's things, and he took advantage of it, didn't he? As for other things, Zhang Wujiang really doesn't understand.
Li Zuoguo looked at Zhang Jun coldly and said sarcastically: "Little Marquis, you are so majestic and evil. Who is the prince's uncle? Which country is the prince? Why don't I know?"
Li Zuoguo's words made Zhang Jun's soul fly into the sky, and he suddenly fell to the ground. He had already scolded Zhang Zhongxiao for talking nonsense in his heart, and his mouth was shaking for a long time, but he couldn't say a single word: "Thisthis thisthis isisis Zhangzhongzhongxiaolu¨¤nlu¨¤nlu¨¤n"
His tone was so dry that both Chu Tianshu and Chu Tianshu felt uncomfortable for him. Li Zuoguo interrupted Zhang Jun and said: "No need to say more, I also learned about your affairs today. When you go back, you will spit out everything you swallowed. Within a year, You are not allowed to leave the Hou Mansion. You have no brains and can only be used by others. You are not satisfied with the income from so many industries every year? Your character is not good either. If within a year I hear that you have left the Hou Mansion."
Li Zuoguo leaned forward slightly and said with a smile: "I heard that there are four grandchildren in Ping'an." The implication was self-evident. Zhang Jun felt relaxed all over, but Li Zuoguo still raised it high and put it down gently. , only sentenced to one year of house arrest.
Li Zuoguo turned to Zhang Wujiang: "When peace comes, take your son back. From now on, remember the word peace and enjoy yourself. Don't run away if you deserve it. If you rush in if you don't deserve it, you are making fun of the life of the whole family."
Zhang Wujiang sweated, and quickly dragged his son who was too frightened to stand up, and retreated. In his heart, he was ready to go back and give his son a good meal. This time, half of Zhang Wujiang's life was frightened.
After beating the three of them, Li Zuoguo looked at Chu Tianshu and Duan Tianhe coldly and said, "Tell me what you have to say. Did you two deliberately cause this?"
Chu Tianshu and Duan Tianhe had embarrassment on their faces. Chu Tianshu said: "The Holy One is wise, Tianshu already knew that he could not hide from the Holy One"
Li Zuoguo interrupted Chu Tianshu: "Stop flattering and tell me, have you two agreed?"
Duan Tianhe smiled, nodded and said: "The two of us knew about this matter, but we didn't mention it to the Holy One. In fact, the Holy One also knew about this matter, but the Holy One didn't care about it. How can we ministers care about it?"
Li Zuoguo was silent. Indeed, no matter how wishful thinking he was, the fact that his son could become a prince was related to whether some people's families could grow or not. This was the trend of interests. The one with the biggest return on a small investment was Conglong. The support of the Taiping Festival His contribution was no small matter. I don't blame these Chang'an officials for trying to do this. I just thought too simply and didn't expect these people to be so bold.
Li Zuoguo's face suddenly sank, his murderous intent undisguised: "Do you really think that I am a good-tempered person? Do you dare to make an issue of my family, thinking that I don't dare to kill people?"
Chu Tianshu and Duan Tianhe looked at each other and smiled. Their expressions fell into the eyes of Li Zuoguo. Li Zuoguo pointed at the two of them and said, "You two have colluded for a long time. Are you just waiting for me to kill someone?"
Chu Tianshu said solemnly: "Exactly, Your Majesty, the Great Zhou Dynasty established its country with force, but Your Majesty was too kind to the ministers of the Tang Dynasty. There are always some people who think that Your Majesty's tolerance is weakness, and they rush out to make trouble and reap the benefits. Yes, if we use Zhang Jun today, how can we know that there will be no Liu Jun or Ma Jun tomorrow? Although thunder and rain are all gifts from heaven, the Holy One only has rain and no thunder. I am afraid there will be many people like this in the future."
Li Zuoguo carefully considered Chu Tianshu's words. Indeed, he treated the surrenders of the Tang Dynasty better. Basically, the surrenders of Chang'an retained their original titles and did not really touch the interests of these people. With these strengths, Isn¡¯t this a sign of weakness in the eyes of a powerful family? What's more, many of the sons of these powerful men were used as officials. Using Zhang Jun was just a way for these people to test their own bottom line.
Thinking of this, Li Zuoguo was determined.? Said: "You two have drafted a decree to arrest the Qinghe Marquis Zhang Wenduan, the Anding Marquis Cai Zhongyao and other eight families. Their property will be confiscated to fill the national treasury. All their land will be confiscated. Males above the age of 16 will be killed." "The servants of the family below have become slaves to the border troops, and their wives have become official prostitutes. Their descendants will not be allowed to enter the court for the rest of their lives."
Chu Tianshu and Duan Tianhe couldn't help but look at each other. Li Zuoguo had Yinying in his hands. It was not surprising to know who was behind the instigation of Zhang Jun. However, Li Zuoguo's thunderous treatment was too serious and did not involve rebellion at all. He actually wanted to To kill so many people, you must know that the two families of Qinghehou and Andinghou alone are Chang'an families with a population of more than a thousand. They were a noble family in the Li Tang Dynasty. The number of direct men in each family is said to be more than three hundred. , wouldn¡¯t this killing result in thousands of heads falling to the ground?
Li Zuoguo looked at the two people and knew what they were thinking, and sneered: "Don't you want me to do these things? Then I will grant your wish. The world is not peaceful, and I don't want anyone to hold on to it. My practical idea is to just take advantage of this time and kill everyone to see who else dares to jump out in the future. But it doesn't matter if there are really people who are not afraid of death. I will kill until there is no one left. If I want to be in the imperial power To make a fuss, first prepare for the whole family to be buried with you."
"Chang Nu, you will go find General Liu Han with the imperial edict later, and go and arrest all those who intend to rebel tonight. I will give you half of the tiger talisman and mobilize 10,000 forbidden troops." Li Zuoguo said.
Zheng Chunyun bowed in response, then stood with his hands crossed
In the warm room, the two imperial ministers felt a chill rising from their backs. At this moment, Li Zuoguo's imperial image became so full, which made Chu Tianshu and Duan Tianhe afraid of their little tricks. Chu Tianshu Duan Tianhe wrote the words and quickly drafted the edict on a table nearby. After Li Zuoguo read it, he printed it, and Zheng Chunyun took two young eunuchs to find Liu Han.
Li Zuoguo added: "The soldiers have been well trained in the past few years. This is the year when the forces of the Tang Dynasty in the south will be extinguished. You two are civil servants who set an example. You must set a good example and don't focus on other places. There are many enemies around Dazhou. We all have to deal with them. Zhong Yang and the others are still young. Who becomes the prince does not depend on me, but on their own performance. I don¡¯t even know who will take this position in the future. I only know that they are all my sons. Whoever makes a fuss about this, I will take his head, do you understand?"
Chu Tianshu and Duan Tianhe nodded quickly. After all, Chu Tianshu knew Li Zuoguo's temper better than Duan Tianhe. He quickly changed the subject and said: "Our army has been in the army for more than two years. The navy's training and equipment are all complete. We can fight The number of ships is also far away from the Tang army. This is a good time to unify the world. I will first consecrate the unification of the world."
Li Zuoguo laughed loudly, pointed at the two of them and said, "You two go away. I didn't let you have a good time during the Lantern Festival. You must be blaming me. I will give you an extra day off. Tomorrow's meeting will be postponed to the day after tomorrow. I will also give you Those who have ghosts in their hearts should think about it for a day."
Liu Han entered the palace and personally confirmed Li Zuoguo's decree. This kind of troop deployment in the capital was not a simple matter. Not only did the two tigers need to match one, but there was also an imperial edict. If the emperor was in the capital, he had to ask in person before he could carry out the order and confirm it was correct. Afterwards, Liu Han took the imperial edict and went out of the palace to do business. Chu Tianshu and Duan Tianhe also left the palace, but Li Zuoguo went to the Changqing Palace of Jin Concubine Zhang Xiuyun. After all, today¡¯s affairs for the Zhang family and his son were small. Yun must have known that Li Zuoguo was going to comfort his beloved concubine.
Xiaoyun, who was notified at the entrance, had already led the palace ladies in the palace to wait. When Li Zuoguo arrived, they saluted together. Li Zuoguo helped Xiaoyun up and walked into the palace. Xiaoyun's son and daughter all fell asleep, and Li Zuoguo and When Xiao Yun walked into the inner room, a palace maid had already come and took off Li Zuoguo's fur coat. A hot bowl of Tremella soup was served. Li Zuoguo picked up the hot face towel handed by the eunuch, wiped his hands and face, and drank it in one breath. After the second half of the bowl of hot soup, my body suddenly felt uncomfortably hot.
After waving his hand to dismiss the surrounding concubines and eunuchs, Li Zuoguo looked at Xiaoyun and said, "I will ground Zhang Jun in the house for one year. That's it. As for those who want to take advantage of Zhang Jun, they will never be seen again. Your father I didn't embarrass you, I just scolded you a few times. Is this satisfactory to my beloved concubine?"
Concubine Jin Zhang Xiuyun quickly lowered her head and said: "Yunniang thanked the Holy One, but Yunniang's father and brother behaved so recklessly, and the Holy One's treatment was too light. Will some ministers say that the Holy One is unfair? Otherwise, the Holy One could have dealt with it more severely, even if it was It doesn't matter if they go back to Anxi, I'm just afraid they have no brains in Chang'an and will be taken advantage of."
Li Zuoguo sneered: "Hey, if anyone wants to take advantage of the Zhang family, they will use their heads. As long as someone has this idea, I will kill them. How can my relatives of Li Zuoguo be used by them? Don't worry, Xiaoyun, this time too Let Zhang Jun be frightened. If you work hard for another year, I guess it won't be as rough as it is now. It's unfair. If you want to cause harm, you will be dead. Go to the underworld to complain about the injustice."
Xiaoyun stood up and gave Yingying a giftHe bowed his head and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
Li Zuoguo pulled up Xiaoyun and said with a smile: "Why are you being so polite? If I don't take care of my own family, how can I protect those idiots who don't know the heights of the world? Where are Xiaoxin and my Hui'er? I'm still here today I didn¡¯t see the two babies.¡±
Xiaoyun smiled gratefully and said, "Don't even look at the time. We both fell asleep. We won't see you until tomorrow."
Li Zuoguo laughed and said with a smile on his face: "Well, I will play with my babies tomorrow. I won't leave today. I will stay here and see if I can add a younger sibling to my two babies."
Although she and Li Zuoguo have been married for a long time and have two children, Xiaoyun still felt Feixia blowing in her face, turned her head shyly, and said angrily: "You are already the lord of a country, and you are still so immoral."
Li Zuoguo picked up Xiaoyun, and when Xiaoyun exclaimed, he walked into the room and said, "Why are you so unruly? Human relations are the most serious matters. My mother still thinks that her grandchildren have too few wives, so why don't you just Three, how can we satisfy the old man's wish if we don't hurry up?"
Outside the palace, it was getting cold in spring, which is the coldest time of the year. Inside the palace, it was already warm and cozy. Outside the palace, Liu Han rushed into the house of the minister who was agitating Zhang Jun like a wolf and started to cry. People were arrested during the shouting. A total of more than 3,000 people from eight families were arrested that night. More than 20 properties were sealed. Almost half of Chang'an was trembling with cries and the sound of iron hoofs. The Lantern Festival has passed and spring has arrived. ¡
