The Corning case is like a thread that comes out of the water. If you don't pull it up, you will never know how many people and things are involved under the water.After several days of fermentation, the attitudes of the involved Xijing dignitaries towards the Kang Ning case have gradually been revealed.

Most of the people who want to ask more or less most of the people can also be stable. They don't really believe how serious Kang Ning can be and how it can implicate them.Of course, this is for those rich and powerful who are not deeply involved.

But some people are not. Being a thief is always guilty, self-examination and self-examination, it is difficult to really sit on the Diaoyutai, can sit and watch the development of the situation, and make a move later. They all have a calm mind. Went to intervene.

Of course, there are all kinds of people, like the uncle Li Ye, who regards risks as opportunities and crises as good opportunities, secretly eager to move, sharpening their knives, but there are many, especially after Li Ye's personal invitation to join forces. Next, there will be more tempted people.

Therefore, there were obviously more people who came to Dali Temple to say hello and inquire about the situation, and their purposes were obviously different, which also confused Dali Temple Shaoqing Xiang Minzhong even more.In particular, when a censor Mingzuo impeached him, he was accused of not doing his best in trying the case and being selfish.Such accusations made Xiang Minzhong startled and angry. At the same time, he became more confused and anxious about the Liu Kangning case. He became more cautious and conservative, and did not dare to act rashly. life is from
Yangyi Hou's Mansion is located in Beicheng, in the northeast region of the inner city of Xijing. Yangyi Hou Zhang Yongde is a first-class marquis. Over the past few decades, most of the meritorious veterans have either withered or retreated behind the scenes, but there are always a small number of people who remain. Persisting in the post, at the center of military power, Zhang Yongde was one of them, and he was the commander of the guard department at that time.

As night fell, the Hou Mansion also entered a peaceful and serene atmosphere. He had just had dinner with his family and enjoyed some family happiness. Zhang Yongde went back to the study as usual, ready to read and read some important news. Before entering the state, a servant came to report that Uncle Gu Yang had arrived.

Gu Yangbo is Li Chongjin, the nephew of the late Xing Guogong, who is also close to the Guo family, but compared with Zhang Yongde's smooth life, Li Chongjin's life is obviously more ups and downs. But it is recognized among the nobles.

It would be fine if Li Chongjin was unbearable, but he didn't.Although Li Chongjin has some personality flaws, he is prone to anger, impulsiveness and irritability, but he works hard, is serious in his work, brave in battle, and has always been loyal to the court. , at least not slower than Zhang Yongde's promotion in the early days.

However, at every critical moment of promotion, Li Chongjin would always have some problems, or he would cause trouble, such as the killing of prisoners in the Battle of Huainan, or he simply lost the battle.

The most typical one was during Qianyou's Northern Expedition. He and Shi Yande were eager to make contributions, pursued rashly, and rushed forward. As a result, they were ambushed by the Liao army and lost thousands of elite cavalry from the imperial court. After the Northern Expedition, the few senior military officers who were not promoted but demoted were really a big blow to Li Chongjin, who had always had an arrogance in his heart.

In the follow-up process of the great Han's domination of the world, Li Chongjin also won some battles and made some contributions, but compared with some generals of the same rank and generation, he was already far behind.

In the early years of Kaibao, Emperor Liu bestowed honors on nobles and honors. After detailed, rigorous, and comprehensive considerations, he proposed to confer the title of second-class earl on Li Chongjin. Jue, with such a gap, how can Li Chongjin balance, so he has been in a feeling of aggrieved and unwilling for a long time.

In the battles in the early years of Kaibao, Li Chongjin would take the initiative to ask for orders every time, but he did not get any outstanding credit. Until Kaibao’s Northern Expedition, Li Chongjin was nearly fifty, and he still actively asked for battles, hoping to gain military merit through such a war , Fight for honor, be promoted to noble, and raise salary.

For this reason, he did not hesitate to serve as a dangerous and hard-working vanguard with the juniors. As a result, his old illness relapsed, and he made a vigorous and vigorous Northern Expedition. In the end, he became a spectator, still close to the battlefield
After Kaibao’s Northern Expedition, even if his will was as firm as Li Chongjin’s, he still felt discouraged. After ten years in Kaibao, he began to retire. He first requested to be transferred out of the Forbidden Army, and was assigned to Yanshan South Road as the deputy commander of the capital. After two years, he retired completely. , Leaving the army that has spent most of his life.

Li Chongjin, who retired from the army, started to enter the political arena, and when he arrived at the local government, he started directly as the governor of the state. Considering that he had no experience in civil affairs, Zhao Pu planned to give him a vacancies in the Daoist Department. But Li Chongjin's background was strong enough, his qualifications were old enough, and he finally got a real job as the governor of Shangzhou.

However, Li Chongjin was only a military official after all, and he could command the army. In terms of politics, he really had nothing to praise.One has no experience, two has little patience, and the third is focused on doing things to achieve results, and the end result is naturally chaos.

At that time, because of the payment of the autumn tax, Li Chong was too fussy and too rough in his work, which caused a civil uprising. In order to extinguish the civil uprising, he chose to suppress it forcefully, resulting in dozens of deaths.
As a result, the governor of Shangzhou who had been serving as the governor of Shangzhou for less than half a year was immediately dismissed, and Li Chongjin was completely reduced to an idler for more than ten years.

In the past ten years, unlike some nobles, Li Chongjin has been very peaceful and adaptable after returning to the family. After all, the military is still an official career. Learn some indifferent ambitions.

Therefore, Li Chongjin is not the most nourishing life among the nobles, but he is definitely the most comfortable and peaceful
If there is a real-time hot search list in Xijing, the Kangning case will definitely be at the top of the list. There is a thunderbolt, and the government and the people are in full swing. The way.

Without exception, the reasons for Li Chongjin and the Yangyi Marquis were also related to the Kangning matter.Originally, Li Chongjin didn't intend to come, but he couldn't stand the fact that there were also a few ineffective children and grandchildren who were gossiping, and the pressure from inside and outside was exerted, forcing Li Chongjin to come to discuss it.

Guo and Chai, the big power group and the two big families, are not as powerful as before, but as long as there is Guo Ningfei in the palace, and the two princes outside the palace, then they are still one of the most prominent families.

As for the sons of the two major families who have been in power several times, the only person who can make Li Chongjin come to the door is Zhang Yongde. These two are the highest seniority and the oldest qualifications in the power group.

In the study room, the atmosphere was a bit calm. Zhang Yongde frowned slightly after listening to Li Chongjin's description. After drinking two sips of tea, he thought for a while before asking: "What you said is true? The only difference between you and Kang Ning is this." Debt relationship, nothing else?"

Seeing Zhang Yongde's faint doubts, Li Chongjin's violent temper that had been suppressed for more than ten years suddenly relapsed, stood up abruptly, pointed to the sky and said in a solemn voice: "I put down this old face and came to ask for advice. What else can I do?" Taboo? If it wasn't for those two traitors, how could I have asked you? My traitor was just ambushed by others, and if he really wanted to get involved, they have no position or power, so how deep can they be involved?"

Seeing Li Chongjin's indignant look, Zhang Yongde also took a picture of the table. He knew in his heart that he had to suppress this tiger in order to communicate normally.When Li Chongjin is in front of others, it is normal, but when facing himself, he is always irritable, that is a hurdle that is difficult to overcome
"What's the use of yelling at me? If you don't understand the situation and act rashly, who can know whether the result will be to get out of the quagmire or to sink in the mud?" Zhang Yongde scolded Li Chongjin with a cold face: "I have warned you a long time ago, Discipline your family members and grandchildren well.”

"Is my family not law-abiding enough?" Hearing this, Li Chongjin was not convinced: "In all fairness, how has my family ever gotten into trouble in all these years? Is it against the law? Or is it evil? Although your nephew is not a talent, he has never done his duty. Filial piety! Your grandson almost killed someone before, how did you discipline him? How can you blame me?"

Zhang Yongde's complexion naturally turned ugly when he saw the old man revealing himself to his face, but seeing Li Chongjin's gray hair and angry hair, and noticing his gray beard and hair, he couldn't help but wryly smiled.

After calming down, he waved his hands and said, "What are we fighting for here? How can we help?"

Zhang Yongde's temper softened, Li Chongjin also vented, and said in a deep voice: "We must try to make up for it! Now the capital is full of turmoil because of this incident. I don't care what other people think or do. I'm afraid of Your Majesty? Then Kang Ning is definitely not What a good thing, it's been planned and planned, and it has evil intentions, and now that the incident happened, he would not regret his death, because he is afraid that His Majesty will get involved, and such things, His Majesty can do it!"

"Speak carefully! Speak carefully!" Although it was in a private study, Zhang Yongde wished he could rush forward and cover his mouth after hearing what Li Chongjin said.

Seeing his reaction, Li Chongjin also reacted, knowing that his words were too much, so he decisively shut up.Zhang Yongde was able to think seriously again for a while, and said slowly: "This matter is not as serious as you said! If it's just a debt relationship, then bite this point to death. Before the conclusion is reached, pay back the money and write it off first." Clear the relationship! How much money did you borrow from the Kang family?"

"Two thousand strings"

Mentioning this, Li Chongjin couldn't help but get angry. How can he say that he is also Gu Yangbo, and he still has a mere two thousand guan?
"Two thousand——" Zhang Yongde obviously choked for a moment, looked at Li Chongjin, and felt a little unbelievable, and said with emotion: "For the mere two thousand, you have caused a huge relationship. After this incident, you really have to discipline me. That nephew!"
