Chapter 141 Man is fortune and birds are killed for food

Chapter 141 People die for money and birds die for food

Tall door and wide courtyard wall.

A plaque hanging high above the lintel of the mansion, with three large characters "Shizhong Di" written on it.

There are gate halberds and horse-mounted stones on both sides of the gate. Two carriages are parked in the open space in front of the gate.

Wen Daya and Feng Daoyan got off the carriage separately.

Feng Daoyan looked at Wen Daya.

Wen Daya dusted her sleeves and looked at Feng Daoyan with a calm temperament.

Feng Daoyan stepped forward and bowed and said, "I have met Shangshu Wen."

Wen Daya took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "Have you received the news?"

Feng Daoyan nodded and said excitedly: "Just just received the news, the General of the Left Guard, Yuchi Jingde, led 30,000 elite troops to Lingzhou to quell the rebellion."

Speaking of this, he raised his head and looked at Wen Daya with hope and said, "What did Wen Shangshu say?"

Wen Daya did not answer his question and shook her sleeves of the robe: "Go in, don't let the old servant wait for a long time!

As he said that, he stepped up the stairs.

Feng Daoyan's face turned a little glowed, and he also swayed his sleeves, and followed Wen Daya into the mansion.

...

Yu Wenshi sat in front of the desk, with his long eyebrows lowered.

Wen Daya and Feng Daoyan stood on both sides.

Feng Daoyan looked unbelievable and asked: "Old Master, isn't it a good thing for Your Majesty to transfer Yuchi Jingde out of the capital at this time?"

Wen Daya glanced at him and replied lightly: "My Tang Dynasty war generals are like clouds, famous generals are like rain, and mere Tiel rebels, why should the dignified general of the Left Guard take action?"

Feng Daoyan asked repeatedly: "You mean that Your Majesty has been prepared long ago... Then why don't you advise Mr. Zheng to be calm?"

He paused and then said, "If Your Majesty had prepared, we had only less than 100,000 private soldiers. If we could accomplish anything, that would be a strange thing."

Wen Daya's eyelids drooped and asked calmly: "The arrow is on the string and I have to fire it. Should we wait for death?"

Feng Daoyan immediately said, "If you are not careful, you will lose everything. We, fellow Guandong, may not be able to be kind!"

Wen Daya said quietly: "Now it is just a doubt that those who accomplish great things need to be careless..."

Feng Daoyan spread his hands and said, "The Zheng family in Xingyang is now the descendant clan, and it is unspeakable. If Mr. Zheng had a ill-hearted intention and lured us into a trap, the emperor was worried that he would not find an opportunity to weaken our aristocratic clans. How could he let go of such an opportunity?"

Yu Wenshi said slowly, "The emperor is not confused yet!"

Feng Daoyan was stunned.

Wen Daya lowered her head and said, "What the old servant said is."

Seeing that Feng Daoyan was still puzzled, he explained: "The Tiele rebellion has been silenced, and it is impossible to find evidence."

Feng Daoyan was stunned and said with a smirk: "If you are not guilty, how can you block the world's mouths?"

Wen Daya smiled slightly and said, "In Your Majesty's opinion, this is completely possible. Since the Wang family in Taiyuan and the court were separated, the Wang family in Taiyuan immediately assisted Liu Wuzhou, and instantly destroyed the entire Hedong. Later, the Hebei clan helped Liu Shishan and destroyed the entire thirty-nine states of Hebei for three months. This is a common trick used by our aristocratic clans. Your Majesty can guess it without evidence!"

The relationship between the aristocratic clans and the court is the relationship between the chairman and the shareholders. They have cooperation and struggles.

According to inertial thinking, the real reason can also be guessed. After all, the court has tried its best to weaken the Tielle tribe. Now the Tielle 11 rebelled, the armor and weapons used are rare in the world. The Tielle people should not obtain these resources at all.

Feng Daoyan took a deep breath and said, "So Your Majesty transferred Yuchi Gong to Lingzhou to investigate the case. So Your Majesty still wants to weaken our aristocratic clan!"

His tone was filled with indignation.

Yu Wenhe breathed a deep breath and said, "The key is not here."

Wen Daya and Feng Daoyan were stunned.

Yuwen Shiji stood up and the two stepped forward to support his arm.

Yu Wenshi slowly walked to the outside of the study, gently twisted his beard, and said, "The key is, what does the Supreme Emperor mean!"

Wen Daya and Feng Daoyan's faces changed color at the same time.

Feng Daoyan asked in a flash: "Does the Supreme Emperor not want to?"

Yu Wenshi sighed and said, "You don't understand our Supreme Emperor, and don't think about it. If the matter is leaked, will there be room for ease between the Supreme Emperor and His Majesty?"

Feng Daoyan's face was full of surprise.

Wen Daya frowned and thoughtful, and the divine light flashed in her eyes.

Yu Wenshi sighed and said, "If this is true, if things fail, the Supreme Emperor will definitely die suddenly. Your Majesty is not the young lord who has been the new throne. He has been the emperor for many years. He has been the general rule of big and big, and has been disturbed by different theories. This is the ancestral system. The country's lifeline is important, and a party is entrusted. Is that what Your Majesty wants to see? There are always gains and losses in the world. If you want to gain, you have to give up."

Wen Daya is not Feng Daoyan. He knows Li Yuan better than Feng Daoyan. Li Yuan is a master who does not show off his eagle. He will never stand up without seeing the coup success. Once successful, Li Yuan will definitely endorse them.

...

"Shadow" actually does not refer to a substitute. There is another meaning, which is the chess piece placed in the dark by the aristocratic clans.

Since the Yongjia chaos and the Central Plains, China has moved south. The aristocratic families in the world have been divided into the southern branch and the Liubei branch.

It was very dangerous to stay in the north at that time, and life was in danger. The families where they were located both took the common or partial branch as the northern branch, leaving behind the houses and fields in the north, while the southern branch was the direct branch.

The Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties were turmoil for three hundred years, saying that the Hu invaded the Central Plains, but it was not so much a struggle between the northern branch and the southern branch. This was a real fight between the same family and the murder of each other.

If Gao Xu had not assisted Murong Huang, the Xianbei Murong tribe could only herd sheep in Liaodong. If Fan Changsheng and Fan Ben of the Fan family in Qingcheng supported Li Te and Li Xiong, they would have been just a bandit. If Zhang Bin, Xun Chuo and Pei Xian had assisted Shi Le, the Jie clan would still be Ma Nu.

Of course, the current situation is different from the past. Now the world is unified, and the children of Liubei Branch hidden in the dark have nothing to do with their reputation, but they are one of the most core forces of the aristocratic clans.

Just like the Hou Mo Chen family, although the population has withered, it is still divided into Mingzong and Darkzong. Hou Mo Chenqian will be Mingzong, while Hou Mo Chenxu is just a shadow.

Zhang Daozong knew his identity since he was a child and also knew why he changed the good Wang family to the Zhang surname. He entered Zuotunwei with anonymous name and now he has become the General of the Central Army of the Zuotunwei Yi Mansion.

In the eyes of the Wang family in Taiyuan, the inheritance system passed down from generation to generation is like a joke. As a child of the Wang family in Taiyuan, as the grandson of the Duke of Rencheng County, it is actually too easy to become an official. Even if you become the chief supervisor of a state, isn’t it easy and easy to be happy?

But he was like an ordinary soldier, starting from the 13th year of Daye, and became an ordinary soldier under Li Yuan's command.

Eleven years later, after more than a hundred battles, he finally promoted to the General of the Central Army of the Zuotun Weiyi Prefecture. Although his official position was not very high, he was only above the fifth rank, but he was able to be promoted from a small soldier to a fifth rank General Ningyuan, which was actually at the highest level of the common people.

After all, not everyone can become Chen Ying.

It is even more impossible to become the General of the Cavalry.

Zhang Daozong's ability is unquestionable. He neither accepted any help from the Wang family in Taiyuan. He relied on his own efforts to achieve his current status. He changed his name and surname at the age of nine, and he has not received any orders from the Wang family in Taiyuan for twenty-seven years.

It was not until today that Zhang Daozong received a message from his confidant in the family leader.

Zhang Daozong knew why the head of the family was useless, but the danger of ordering people to send a message was too high, so high that the nine tribes were all dangerous.

Lead troops to attack Cheng'an Palace and welcome Li Yuan to restore the throne.

This matter is too much. Once successful, the Taiyuan Wang family can naturally gain Li Yuan's friendship and huge benefits. Of course, once it fails, only Zhang Daozong will die, and it must not be related to the Taiyuan Wang family.

But Zhang Daozong had made a choice without even a slight struggle in his heart. Between the emperor and the family, or between the country and the family, Zhang Daozong chose his family without hesitation.

A country and a country are the world. Only with a family can one have a country.

He sent away the confidant sent by the head of the family. Just as nightfall, Zhang Daozong ordered people to summon more than 1,500 soldiers from the entire Zuotun Weiyi Mansion.

Torches and braziers shine brightly on the entire school ground, as if it was during the day.

Zhang Daozong, dressed in military uniform, rode his horse and climbed up to the general platform. After glanced at the soldiers below, he waved his hand and ordered: "Come on!"

A dark and shiny box was carried up by the guards.

Zhang Daozong waved his hand and opened the box with a click, revealing stacks of money. All of them were ten thousand coins.

To this day, the money issued by Chen Ying's Tang Tongli Money House has been recognized by the people, especially since the salary is distributed, they have received such money.

With a gurgle, he clicked the Adam's apples of the soldiers in front of the stage and swallowed a saliva.

Their salary is only 7,000 jin a year, but each person gave up a full 200 jin of money, which is their salary for nearly thirty years. In an instant, no one would be moved by his annual salary for nearly thirty years.

Zhang Daozong was very satisfied with the soldiers' reactions and coughed his throat and said, "Did you see it? What is this? Money money, two stakes per person?"

The soldiers below were all curious about why Zhang Zhonglang, who was usually unlucky, prepared two hundred steads for each person so generously. You should know that 1,500 soldiers, this is 300,000 steads.

Not to mention the average soldier, even if it is a wealthy family, 300,000 jin is a huge sum of money.

Zhang Daozong looked at the strange expressions on the faces of the soldiers and said aloud: "It is time for us to be loyal to the emperor. Now it is time for us to be loyal to the emperor. I will be in line with the emperor's will, and I will follow the emperor's will to kill the thieves. You and others will open the city gate with me to welcome friendly troops into the city. After killing the thieves, each of them will reward three hundred stakes of money!"
