Li Zhang

In the capital, Sima Yizheng was troubled by being attacked repeatedly for supplies, and Zhou Mao's face was as dark as a pan. When he saw Meng Yaofu, he was in a gesture of provoking a teacher, which made Meng Yaofu see him from a distance. He ran away.

Meng Yaofu was also full of bitterness.The Dingbei Army was in a hurry, and the Dingnan Army was dragged back. The only troops that could be mobilized by the imperial court were the defenders of Southeast Prefecture, but they had not fought for many years. At the last moment, he really didn't want to drag them out and sacrifice their lives for nothing.

However, the food and grass prepared by Zhou Mao painstakingly could not avoid being hijacked no matter whether it was escorted by heavy soldiers or secretly smuggled.

Jin Bai has already returned to the capital, and has transferred all the dark guards of the Bai generation to assist in the war in northern Xinjiang.At the end of October, Bai Jiu, who had been tracking down the Mangshan faction for some time, accidentally found out the whereabouts of the robbed grain and grass, which brought the secretive Mangshan faction to the surface.Bai Jiu then continued to expand the results of the battle. While finding out the location of the Mangshan faction, he also found out the master-student relationship between Cheng Xuan and Qingsou, as well as the fact that the Mangshan faction fully assisted Cheng Xuan.

Sima Yi immediately sent Mu Yan to encircle and suppress.The terminally ill young man with disabled legs refused to surrender, and personally commanded the last generation of disciples to form a formation of sixteen geese to fight against the besieging imperial guards.After Mu Yan took over the imperial guards, he has implemented the Nine Forms in the imperial guards. After nearly two years of training, his proficiency is no less than that of the guard battalion back then. The only thing missing is a command order comparable to Li Zhang, and the number of people he can deal with is not many And the Sixteen Wild Goose Formation that I have just learned is more than enough.Mu Yan allocated most of his staff to search for the robbed food and grass, and he didn't pay attention to the old man and his geese at all.

In resentment, the old man resorted to the tactic of killing each other, retreated to the back villa by himself, lit dozens of carts of grain and grass and Zhuangzi on fire, and looked at the shocked Mu Yan with a distorted and cruel smile.

"Liu Muyan's Sima family's world is a treasure, and I just want to watch it collapse! Mu Shitong's hypocrisy deserves to die long ago! He dragged down his descendants and his family members so that he could not die well, God has eyes! I'm afraid that the roots will be cut in the hands of Sima's family! He really is the son of Mu Shitong, an ignorant and die-hard loyalist!

Talking about loyalty, benevolence, and the way of the world are just empty airs to whitewash the public!My young man just doesn't believe this!Liu Muyan abandoned me like a pig, and Sima Di crippled my legs. If I don't avenge this revenge, I will be in vain!

Do you want to get back the food and grass?come!Come get them all!How can the things in the hands of the young man be so easy to take!Ha ha!Ha ha ha ha--"

Amidst the fierce laughter, the fire soared into the sky, and the villa that had already cut off the water source did not have a drop of water available, and the wooden structure of the villa burned into a sea of ​​flames.Mu Yan had no choice but to lead people to evacuate, and at the same time took away a few Mangshan disciples who were afraid of death and left before the battle. From this, he learned that there were indeed spies in the court to create opportunities for the young man to pass the news, which made the hijacking operation fast and precise. Go without a trace!

Sima Yi was furious and ordered the Criminal Department to investigate with all its strength.Lin Tai'an didn't dare to be negligent, and with the assistance of Xiao Lanling, who was the most favored by the young man among the disciples of Mangshan Mountain, he quickly tracked down Dingdong General Liu Dianzhai.

In the end, when he reported to the imperial study, Sima Yi smashed his beloved jade paperweight so much that he ordered Mu Yan to lead someone to capture it himself.When Mu Yan arrived at the Liu Mansion, there was chaos in the Liu Mansion.Liu Dianzhai's sword had been smeared on his neck, Mrs. Liu fell to the ground crying out of breath, the two daughters-in-law supported her one by one, both looked dazed and panicked, looking up at Liu Dianzhai completely at a loss.

Mu Yan saw it clearly from a distance, and shouted sharply: "Liu Dianzhai! You only care about your own relief, and you don't care about the life and death of this family? Is the dignified General Dingdong just like this?!"

Shocked, Liu Dianzhai put down the sharp sword in his hand.

Afterwards, Liu Dianzhai confessed to collaborating with the enemy. He said that he had received great favor from the Wang family, and he did not dare to have the dying concubine's entrustment.But what I did was all done without telling the family, and I never involved them. I begged the emperor to spare the lives of my family because the three sons of the Liu family are all contributing to the court.

Sima Yi didn't want to read it, but after reading the confession, he felt even more angry, thinking that with a father like this, the three sons might have done something shady, even if they wanted to punish the Liu family.Lin Tai'an didn't dare to say more, so he handed over the case files to Dali Temple, arrested people related to Liu's family everywhere, and blood flowed into rivers in the Xishi execution ground.

Unexpectedly, Dali Temple Minister Zhou Zhengjun was as bullish as his father Zhou Mao. After carefully reading the case files, he personally interrogated Liu Dianzhai and his eldest son Liu Xu, and after confirming Liu Xu's innocence, he went public in the court On behalf of Liu Xu, based on the newly formulated criminal law, he pointed out that Liu Xu, who was not at fault, should not be imprisoned, and Liu Dianzhai, who was collaborating with the enemy, had not reached the level of treason, and asked Sima Yi to withdraw his will to punish the nine clans.

Sima Yi barely suppressed his anger before he finished listening to Zhou Zhengjun's eloquent and eloquent refutation. Then he remembered that he asked the Ministry of Criminal Justice to rewrite the criminal law because he was worried that Li Zhang might be involved in an accident in the Li family, and suddenly felt like shooting himself in the foot feeling, he quickly winked at Lin Tai'an.How could Lin Tai'an argue better than Zhou Zhengjun who came prepared, and was rendered speechless after three or two rounds.

Sima Yi became more and more annoyed when he heard this, and was about to coerce, but saw Mu Yan, who had never participated in court disputes, come out of the squad, stood beside Zhou Zhengjun and told him: "Although Liu Dianzhai's actions are hateful, they were not intentional. Otherwise, the Liu family would not be completely defenseless and locked up to the end.

Mr. Zhou is based on the facts, but I think there is no bias.Liu Xu has been on duty in the Ministry of War for a long time, so Mr. Meng and other adults in the Ministry of War naturally know better about his personality.The minister only said that Liu Yun, who was implicated with Liu Xu, joined the imperial guards after the Anping Rebellion, but he was already one of the imperial guards guarding the emperor's trip to Yuzhou. He made new achievements in Mang Mountain, and has long been the backbone of the Imperial Guard.If it is said that he is also guilty, I will not be convinced!

I don't know what Liu Dianzhai was thinking when he colluded with the enemy, but I only have sympathy for Liu Yun, who was innocent and troubled.Now that Mr. Zhou has analyzed the case clearly, I ask the emperor to consider it carefully before making a conclusion! "

Afterwards, Zhou Mao, Meng Yaofu, and Yushi Dou Yunsi also stepped forward to intercede for the Liu family, making Sima Yi's face darken.During the confrontation between the emperor and his ministers, Shen Yaochen, Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, suddenly submitted the verified list of the nine clans of the Liu family to the Long Case. Sima Yi casually flipped through two pages, pointed to the list strangely and asked Shen Yaochen, "Why is there only Liu Dianzhai and his son in the direct line of the nine clans of the Liu family?"

Shen Yaochen clasped his fists to Zhou Zhengjun and asked, "Master Zhou, please solve the emperor's doubts!"

Zhou Zhengjun then explained the story one by one, and Sima Yi's face softened slightly after hearing this.

It turned out that when Liu Dianzhai was six years old, the Liu family suffered a massacre and dozens of people died overnight. Only Liu Dianzhai, who was hidden by his mother in the kitchen, escaped and hid in the bloody corpse for three days before he dared to climb out of Zhuangzi to escape. Thirsty and hungry, he passed out on the side of the road and was rescued by the passing Mrs. Wang.Mrs. Wang originally intended to take him home, but after asking about the reason, he was worried that he would bring home the disaster, so he made a detour to Qingzhou and entrusted Liu Dianzhai to his old friend who lived in seclusion in the mountains.

This old friend was alone, and he had only one friend in his life, Mrs. Wang. Seeing that Liu Dianzhai was stable, kind, and good-natured, he took him in as a foster son to teach martial arts until he found his enemy and avenged his blood. The Eastern Army, killed the enemy and made meritorious service in the army, step by step from a soldier to the position of Dingdong General.

After Liu Dianzhai got married, he wanted to take his adoptive father into the capital to take care of him, but his adoptive father refused and did not want the servants he sent to serve him, so he divided the time of visiting the house into two halves. died.

As for the Wang family, after Concubine Yi gave birth, Wang Lixue began to consciously cultivate influence, but he was not optimistic about Liu Dianzhai, who was the captain of the Dingdong Army at that time. Extremely negligent.When Liu Xu was born in martial arts and joined the Ministry of War, Wang Lixue even promoted Wang Yuzhang and the Dingbei Army to the dominant position. Liu Dianzhai, who was already the deputy general of the Dingdong Army, still looked down on Liu Dianzhai, and Liu Xu was also flattering Chengfeng's Ministry of War is obedient and honest, and has never deliberately approached, so no one knows the relationship between the Liu family and the Wang family. It was not until Liu Dianzhai colluded with the enemy that Liu Xu was implicated and arrested and imprisoned. Relationships are made public.

Meng Yao hated Liu Dianzhai's actions, but he always felt sorry for Liu Xu.Liu Xu has been Meng Yaofu's direct subordinate since he was the governor of the treasurer. Meng Yaofu can see his words and deeds more clearly than others, and he is now responsible for the official position of the fifth-rank treasurer. result.Meng Yaofu didn't want to lose this powerful assistant at this time.

So he repeatedly winked at Jin Bai who hadn't made a statement yet, and Jin Bai obediently stood up, looked at Sima Yi, who was very dissatisfied, and persuaded conciliatoryly: "The current situation of Dingbei Army and Dingnan Army is critical, and Liu Dianzhai's collusion with the enemy is really serious. Such as stabbing a knife in the back, it is indeed hateful and hateful! But he knows how to repay his kindness, but he has a kind heart. The matter of punishing the nine clans really needs to be carefully considered. I think it is the best policy to detain the members of the Liu family in Dali Temple first and suspend the punishment .”

After hearing this, Zhou Zhengjun wanted to refute, but Zhou Mao stretched out his hand and pulled him, and shut his mouth angrily.Sima Yi followed the steps and made a conclusion on this matter: "Liu Dianzhai's crime is unforgivable, and Liu Xu and Liu Yun's behavior is sympathetic. According to Jin Bai's words, we will temporarily detain them!"

After everyone left, Jin Bai followed Sima Yi into the imperial study. Sima Yi looked out of the window with his hands behind his back, and sighed with a complicated mood: "Unexpectedly, what I did alone for Li Zhang is now smashed by Liu Dianzhai. And He, he doesn't even want to know!"

"The emperor regrets it?"

Sima Yi remained silent for a while before shaking his head with a wry smile and said: "So what if you regret it? Gu can't keep him. Now Gu really regrets breaking his promise at the beginning. If it wasn't for this, he wouldn't make the same mistakes again and again, and there is no way to recover land!"

Jin Bai was dejected, and there was nothing to persuade him. After Sima Yi took his seat after the Long case, he finally said: "The matter of Liu Dianzhai was done quickly, and the news didn't reach Youzhou for a while. But Liu Xi was in Ding In the Northern Army, it is better to plan early."

Sima Yi's face darkened: "What? Does he dare to rebel?!"

Jin Bai faced each other frankly: "If the emperor really wants to punish the nine clans of the Liu family, he will die if he doesn't. If Cheng Xuan makes a fuss about this again, does the emperor think that General Su can tolerate him?"

Mentioning Su Qingyang, Sima Yi became silent, and after a long time, he sighed helplessly: "I know Su Qingyang's loyalty, but I've been overwhelmed by Cheng Xuan. Now I'm being forced into Pingshan again. I'm so lonely, I'm worried about the future of Dingbei Army!"

Jin Bai also looked worried when he heard the words: "We have underestimated Rong Xie too much! If Li Zhang can't get out of trouble, not only the Dingbei Army will be in trouble, but the Dingnan Army will inevitably be surrounded and wiped out."

Sima Yi pressed the table irritably: "How much food and grass can Zhou Mao raise?"

Jin Bai shook his head and said, "Lord Zhou has already done his best. Last year, the drought was severe. The previous two fundraising efforts had exhausted the reserves of nearby states and counties. If we want to allocate any more, we have to start from the southern states. The delay along the way, It's not a matter of a day or two!"

Sima Yi frowned tightly, and stared at Jin Bai unwillingly: "Then shall we just watch Li Zhang trapped in front of us?!"

Jin Bai bowed deeply: "My minister, please lend me Liu Yun!"

It was late autumn, and Li Zhang was temporarily stationed in the Dingnan Army tent in Wujiapo, staring at the map under the lamp and meditating.

Pingdu's personal guard, Ping Anle, came in with dinner, saw that Li Zhang was still the same as before Pingdu left, he pursed his lips, put the bowl heavily on the map, and said angrily: "Dinner! "

He is Pingdu's distant nephew, and he has served as Pingdu's personal guard since he was a child. He was dissatisfied with Li Zhang, who joined the army with unknown origin but took the command of Pingdu. Although he had an accident in Zhaozhou, he was dragged around After nearly [-] days, I felt like everyone else that it was just a good deal that Li Zhang picked up by chance. If Pingdu led the team, he might be able to wipe out Kolubi as well, saving the trouble now. Flying around like a fly!

Li Zhang looked up at Pinganle dissatisfiedly as he watched the splash of juice from the bowl pollute the map.Unconvinced, Pingan widened his squinted eyes as much as he could, with his chin upturned and his mouth curled up like a fighting rooster.

Li Zhang was originally agitated, so he couldn't hold back his temper. Seeing Ping An happy, he couldn't help laughing.

He was not willing to ask for any personal guards, but Pingdu insisted on giving him the most sincere one.Although Ping An Le always pretended to want to return to Pingdu, he took good care of Li Zhang's every need.If he hadn't stared at Li Zhang's three meals a day, Li Zhang, who had been thinking hard for many days, might suffer from old illnesses due to poor diet.

Li Zhang was rarely treated kindly by people since he was a child, and he would remember any sincere treatment. He has a temperament of remembering good but not evil. Now that he knows that he is not as good as a human being, he can't stand hunger and cold, and his attitude towards Ping Anle is much more. tolerate.

So he just shook his head and moved the bowl away, found tissue paper to remedy it, and stared at the ink stains on the map in a daze again.

Ping'an Le felt a little guilty looking at the ink blot, she poked her head over and pretended to glance at it, and was about to make a mistake to cover it up, when Li Zhang suddenly raised his head and said to him: "You go and invite Colonel Ling to come over!"

I rambled a lot, and I shamelessly liked these strange life experiences, but the old man's complaints were too boring, and I couldn't change it to the level of real satisfaction, so I just posted it~
