Invincible son

The Yanping hunting meeting began in the sixth year of Taizong Taihe, and then became a rule every two years.

Meeting hunting is equivalent to the military exercises that Pei Yue knew in his previous life. The strategy is to keep the Beijing camp not weaker than the frontier army's combat power at all times, and avoid a situation where the outside is strong but the middle is dry.

For the three major battalions of the Beijing Army, the result of the hunt is not only related to honor, but also affects the treatment of all aspects in the next two years, so no one dares to take it lightly. It has always been the military affairs that the commanders of each battalion personally take charge of.

The last meeting was held at the turn of spring and summer in the third year of Kaiping. Logically speaking, it would be the fifth year of Kaiping. However, when the Western Wu army invaded, the Northern Camp and the Western Camp were preparing to go to the battlefield in the Western Region, so it had to be postponed.No one thought that the Southern Zhou Dynasty would provoke another war in the sixth year of Kaiping, so the meeting was postponed again.

What Wang Pingzhang said was reasonable. The barbarians in northern Xinjiang were just a disease of ringworm. Pei Yue led the two guards to solve it.

The officials in front of the palace quite agreed with his suggestion. Apart from the importance of the Yanping meeting, there was another reason that cannot be ignored.Gu Liang, as the right military plane of the West Mansion, is busy with heavy military affairs. If he goes home to wait for investigation just because of an impeachment without evidence, it will have very dire consequences.

Court disputes are unavoidable, and if this action becomes a practice, then anyone can follow suit—if you are impeached, you have to return to the government, who will do things in the court in the future?
It is only in the eyes of a few important ministers that today's impeachment of Zhang Tang and the subsequent speech of Wang Pingzhang are confusing.

For example, Luo Ting, the right ruler, and Huang Rentai, the official censor, subconsciously thought that it was Wang Pingzhang who wanted to temporarily force Gu Liang out of the West Mansion after Zhang Tang made a move. The re-arrangement during Pei Yue's departure from Beijing was always an attempt after many years.

But what's going on now?Could it be that it was just to make Gu Liang lose some face?

On the dragon chair, Emperor Kaiping seemed unaware of the undercurrents below, and said indifferently: "Gu Qing."

Gu Liang lowered his head slightly and said: "The minister is here."

Kaiping Emperor said: "Wei Guogong's words are justified, the wronged Qing's family will be patient for the time being, and the state affairs should be the most important thing."

Gu Liang said calmly: "Your Majesty is serious, I have no resentment in my heart, what I said earlier was just not wanting to destroy the imperial court's regulations."

Emperor Kaiping nodded his head and said, "As for Zhang Tang's impeachment, I will hand it over to the Governor's Office of the Five Armies for detailed investigation."

Xu Shou, the head of the Governor's Mansion, came out of the class and responded, "Your minister is in command."

Emperor Kaiping looked at Wang Pingzhang again and said, "About the hunting in Yanping this year, the Xifu should draw up a regulation as soon as possible and give it to me for review."

Wang Pingzhang said: "Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that this matter should be presided over by the Marquis of Guangping, and the old minister can assist from the side."

In a sense, there was nothing wrong with his response.Compared with Mo Haoli, the left governor who is ill in bed, although his body is tougher, he is still a 66-year-old veteran. He is gradually reaching the age of begging for bones to retire and return to his hometown. Further decentralization is inevitable.

Gu Liang will take over the position of Zuo Junji from him sooner or later, and now he should gradually take over various affairs of the West Mansion.

There was a weird silence in the side hall, and after a long time, Emperor Kaiping murmured: "Good."

Today's court meeting ended, and when the officials left, Luo Huanzhang, the commander of the Southern Camp of the Jing Army and Marquis of the Ding Army, came to Gu Liang and said to Gu Liang, "My lord, about Liang Shitao's drinking nonsense, the officials don't know about it. "

Gu Liang looked up at this middle-aged tiger general who had risen from the frontier army and was covered in scars to show his meritorious deeds. He could see the anger deep in his eyes, and knew that he probably believed that Liang Shitao was ordered by Wang Pingzhang. Find out the second big shot who has such ability and has the idea to target Gu Liang.

After thinking for a while, he said softly, "Don't worry about Luo Shuai. Who has never been impeached? Although Liang Shitao is talented, he has a bit of a temper. Mostly because I didn't promote him to be a commander, he harbored resentment. The trivial matters are not worth mentioning, and the Governor's Mansion will soon find out the truth."

Luo Huanzhang nodded slightly, cupped his fists and said, "Master Junji has a broad mind, and I admire you so much."

Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Wang Pingzhang approaching. Luo Huanzhang saluted Gu Liang and then turned and left. He was obviously dissatisfied with Wang Pingzhang's involvement of his generals in the court struggle.

This scene fell in the eyes of many important officials, and they couldn't help but secretly care about it.

Since Emperor Kaiping came to the throne, apart from Pei Yue, there are very few warriors who dare to ignore Wang Pingzhang's majesty.

Wang Pingzhang didn't realize it, and after nodding with Gu Liang, he calmly walked down the long steps in front of the hall.

……

Wei Guogong's mansion, on Bagui Hall.

Wang Jiuxuan personally delivered a bowl of ginseng tea to Wang Pingzhang, and said calmly: "Grandfather, Li Zi has been checking the Imperial Army during this time, and has transferred all of his grandson's cronies away, except for a small number who entered the Kyoto garrison as irrelevant For important duties, the rest will be transferred to the West Camp."

Li Zi, Marquis of Hejian, was the confidant of Emperor Kaiping when he was in the hidden residence. He had been in the Forbidden Army for more than ten years.In recent years, he has never shown himself in the mountains, and many people seem to have forgotten his existence, but for the grandparents in Baguitang, Li Zi is the name they often mention, second only to the capital defense division coach Xiangcheng Hou Xiaojin .

Wang Pingzhang took a sip of ginseng tea and said meaningfully: "Do you know why His Majesty didn't move these people, but sent them to Xiying instead?"

As we all know, the West Camp of the Beijing Army is Wang Pingzhang's territory. After more than [-] years of spare no effort to cultivate it, it has long been as unbreakable as an iron barrel.

Wang Jiuxuan pondered and said: "Your Majesty wants to force grandfather to take action, and then catch them all in one go."

Wang Pingzhang smiled and said, "Then how can we disobey the holy will? The Yanping Conference is expected to be held in mid-May, and we still have a few things to do before then."

Wang Jiuxuan bowed and said, "Grandfather please tell me."

Wang Pingzhang put down the soup bowl, and said calmly: "The contact with His Royal Highness is handled by the old man himself. During this period of time, you should focus on the man in Beiying. Now Pei Yueyuan is going to Beijiang, Beiying The group of dragons has no leader, and that kid from the Qin family is useless, so we just let them raise the flag first, so as to cover up our real purpose."

Wang Jiuxuan nodded and said, "Grandson understands."

Wang Pingzhang said again: "Silence Cloud sent someone to send a secret letter the day before yesterday, saying that the descendants of the Chen family will complete the last step. This old man deeply believes that it is more appropriate to leave this matter to that woman."

Wang Jiuxuan pondered for a moment, then said cautiously: "Grandfather, Mo Moyun may not be credible."

Wang Pingzhang looked at him approvingly, and said leisurely: "Your Majesty wants to wipe out those who have evil intentions. In this process, he must rely on the power of Taishitai Pavilion. It is not enough to rely on the current Luan Yiwei. If you say too much, you will be wrong. It is not so easy for Mo Moyun to deceive the old man, and the old man will not pin all his hopes on him."

Wang Jiuxuan nodded, and then asked a little puzzled: "Grandfather, why didn't you take advantage of the situation to force Gu Liang to leave the West Mansion today?"

Of course he knew that Liang Shitao, the deputy commander of the Southern Camp, had long been Wang Pingzhang's man, and there were many chess pieces like this. If the Dudu Mansion thoroughly investigated, they would naturally find evidence that he gave money to Gu Liang.

Wang Pingzhang looked out the window indifferently, and said slowly: "Gu Liang can't leave for the time being, because His Majesty is guessing the old man's mind, and it is difficult to distinguish the true from the false, and the combination of the true and the strange is the way to use soldiers. Jiuxuan, have you prepared those materials properly? "

Wang Jiuxuan responded, "It's ready. Grandpa, are you really going to send these things away?"

Wang Pingzhang smiled with a complex expression, nodded and said: "Send it out, so that those people can justifiably impeach this old man. This old man really wants to know how His Majesty will make a choice. If he can stop here, this old man doesn't necessarily have to go down the road of killing the king." the road."

Wang Jiuxuan sighed lightly. He believed that his grandfather's words came from the heart. After all, the Wang family was facing a powerful and powerful king.

It's just that the situation has developed to the present situation, who can easily get out?
