27, how many Chang'an chasing profit (Part 1)

"Bullshit, if Mr. Nai besieged Chang'an, would you have Zuo Fengyi?"

Guo Si patted the desk and shouted loudly. Gan Ling's face also became cold, and he said coldly:

"If my brother hadn't sent troops from Hedong and restrained Zuo Fengyi's Song Yi, General Guo would not have been able to fight to the city of Chang'an without any obstacles. If it weren't for Zhao Sima in our army who was contacting the old soldiers in the city at that time, how could General Guo enter the city and rely on the battle with the enemy general Lu Bu's horse?"

Gan Ling's rebuttal was extremely sharp and also touched the scars in Guo Si's heart. When he besieged Chang'an last year, he duel with Lu Bu and was defeated by Lu Bu and his arm was severely damaged. It has become the second taboo thing Guo Si's heart has since become a horse thief. At this moment, he was mentioned by Gan Ling in many generals and schools of the Xiliang Army, and Guo Si's face suddenly changed.

He was furious, drew his sword and stood up, cursing:

"How dare you insult me? I think I dare not kill you?"

"Although I dare not compare myself with Lu Bu's courage, it is easy to stab the old slave in my seat!"

Gan Ling was also angry by Guo Si's scolding, drew his sword and stood up, and confronted him in a tit-for-tat way.

On the other side, Li Ying and Fan Chou and others quarreled endlessly. On the other side, Guo Si and Gan Ling were at odds, Yang Ding, Zhang Xiu and others were able to watch the wall at first, but at the point of drawing their swords to face each other, they were worried that they would cause chaos and harm themselves, so they had to speak out and dissuade them.

Finally, both sides of the fight were persuaded to return to their original position, but the debate still couldn't stop.

The dirty tricks between the Lieutenant General of the Xiliang Army were not just to instigate the enemy to support the enemy, delay reinforcements, and demand cities. Soon, the topic was involved in Li Jue.

Li Jue favored one and the other in the rewards. He rewarded the Li family with high officials and generous salaries, but he was even stingy with other generals and schools, so the generals were naturally uneasy and resentful.

Guo Si and Fan Chou were even more jealous of Li Jue, who is currently in charge of the court with the three dukes. If they hadn't led their army to fight in front this time, how could they be able to deal with the ministers in the court with just their Li family, and the Yiliang coalition of 100,000.

Everyone was making noise while competing for merit and scapegoats. The wine glass was broken into the tent, and the sword was pulled out again. Li Jue watched the situation return to chaos, and his face became very ugly. Gan Ling also stood up and angrily left the tent because of Guo Si's request for the city. Zhang Xiu and Duan Wei's lieutenant left the seat one after another, and Yang Ding, Fan Chou and others also came out one after another.

The last celebration banquet caused resentment and parted in disagreement.

After Gan Ling left the tent, the anger on his face had already calmed down. He thought of Guo Si's angry expression in the tent, and Li Jue was sitting on the top leader and watching the changes. He knew that after the Yiliang coalition retreated, the close troubles in Chang'an would be eliminated. The next battle within the Xiliang army would gradually become fierce, and Guo Si's intention to seize several cities in Xihe would also take action.

He must lead his army to leave immediately and report these situations to Anyi as soon as possible to prevent Guo Si's troops from revenge and attack afterwards.

People in this country should not be with you. If you speak again, you will make a decision early.

Thinking of this, Gan Ling did not stop anymore, led his personal guards to get on the horse and quickly left.

···

After the generals in the tent left, there was only a mess left in the table. The angry Guo Si prided himself on his identity and stood up at the end. However, after walking a few steps, he suddenly sat back again. The Gao Shuo, Xia Yu, Wu Xi and other generals under his command were confused when they saw this, but they also stayed there.

Li Ying, Li Li, Hu Feng and others under Li Jue looked at Guo Si and others who were returning with caution, feeling suspicious. Li Jue just glanced at Guo Si and waved his hand to ask Li Li and others to retreat. Guo Si also waved his hand and asked the generals and officials under his command to retreat.

All of a sudden, only Li Jue, Li Ying and Guo Si were left in the tent.

Li Jue looked at Li Ying and asked:

"What you said before is a sure thing?"

When Li Ying heard Li Jue's tone, he knew that this was for Guo Si, and immediately said confidently:

"This matter was seen by Li Li with his own eyes. Fan Chou and Han Sui walked together, spoke happily, and said a lot. The two must have had a conspiracy."

"What do you think?"

After hearing this, Li Jue turned to see Guo Si. Fan Chou still resented the two of them delayed reinforcements when Ma Teng attacked Youfufeng. What Guo Si did at that time was even more than himself.

Guo Si sneered, and he said indifferently:

"So what? Fan Chou was dissatisfied with anger and lost his military strength. What's impossible to connect foreign players?"

Zuo Fengyi and You Fufeng were still separated by Jingzhao Yin. Fan Chouruo was united with Han Sui, and the first thing he was anxious about was Li Jue from Chang'an. Guo Si now only focused his attention on the people in Hedong and the cities in Xihe. As for Fan Chou's conspiracy with Han Sui, he took a ignorant attitude and was too lazy to pay attention to it.

"If so, then we can't let him be arrogant anymore. He is not Ma Yu, Zhong Shao. If he united with Han Sui and others, the Han Dynasty emperor and the Chang'an court might fall into the hands of someone."

Li Jue looked at Guo Si's attitude of standing by and watching, remembering that Fan Chou repeatedly ignored the authority of his chariot and cavalry general, and murderous intent appeared in his heart. He looked at Guo Si's cold body and said word by word.

Guo Si could hear what Li Jue said, but he shook his head and said sneer:

"When you joined forces to resist the Yiliang coalition, your chariot and cavalry general promised to help me get back the cities in Xihe, but today you also saw that not only Fan Chou Jiaoheng, but Ganling also dared to fight against me in public, relying on the power of Yan Yan from Hedong."

"He doesn't care about the authority of your chariot and cavalry general, and you chariot and cavalry general, but my troops are busy pacifying Fengyiqiang and asking for several cities in Xihe. Don't expect our troops to be dispatched in Fan Chou."

Guo Si was unwilling to take Li Li from the fire, so he immediately refused coldly.

Li Jue was rejected directly by Guo Si, and his face was not good-looking. He knew that it would be difficult to continue to use the strategy of hindering Guo Si by Hedong. Looking at Guo Si who was insatiable, Li Jue suppressed his anger and said:

"What if I help you enter the court and take back the cities in Xihe Land?"

Guo Si just refused because he had support. Now that he heard that Li Jue finally gave up, he laughed and immediately said:

"That's easy to say. If you do this, I will deal with Fan Chou's affairs with you. With the attitudes of Zuo Fengyi's troops, Duan Wei, Yang Ding, Zhang Ji and others, you don't have to worry anymore."

After hearing Guo Si's words, Li Jue nodded. If he wanted to deal with Fan Chou, he had to consider the attitude of the generals of Xiliang afterwards. Now that Guo Si has been pulled into his camp again, the next thing will be much smoother.

He calmed down his face, raised his wine glass, and toasted Guo Si. Guo Si no longer postponed it. He immediately drank the wine in the glass in front of him, and then let out a wanton laugh.

···

A few days later, the General's Mansion of the Cheqi and Cavalry.

Li Jue, who returned to the mansion, sent someone to summon Li Zhen, Zuo Ling and the other two. After discussing in the mansion for many days, Li Jue sent someone to summon Li Ru and Jia Xu from the palace. After Li Ru and Jia Xu arrived one after another, they were stunned when they saw Li Zhen and Zuo Ling in the hall, and then they paid homage to Li Jue.

"Two, these are Li Zhen, a middle-aged man from our province, Zuo Ling. I want to report to Li Zhen as the minister and Zuo Ling as the minister. They will join the Taige Pavilion and the palace, and they will rely more on the two."

Although Li Jue smiled and laughed at the surface, Li Ru and Jia Xu were both wise men and had no idea about it. This was because Li Jue had been wary of the court officials and those of them since they colluded with Ma Teng, and could not wait to put his confidants into the court.

Li Ru and Jia Xu knew that Li Jue was suspicious and did not want to interfere in the affairs of the court. His words and deeds were the same as usual, and immediately agreed.

Li Jue nodded with satisfaction and handed over the document drafted by Li Zhen and Zuo Ling to Jia Xu. Jia Xu opened it and his eyes jumped slightly, saying that it was the document of General Cheqi and Cavalry, but it was the format of the edict. According to Li Jue's meaning, he wanted the Shangshutai to draft the edict.

Jia Xu continued to read it again. The general idea of ​​the document was to make Guo Si, Fan Chou and Li Jue have the right to open a government at the same time. Just like the three dukes, they formed six governments and all participated in the election. Looking further, the talents recommended by Li Jue were all brothers, nephews of the Li family and officials and soldiers in the army.

This is what Li Jue wants to list his confidants and his clan members into the court and the opposition, and completely undermine the power of the Three Dukes’ Mansions, the Shangshutai, and the Nine Ministers and the Officials!

Jia Xu felt a little nervous. He knew what the consequences of this way of serving as an official. At that time, the court was full of brothers and nephews of the Li family. When the officials and soldiers in the army were in charge of their positions, Li Jue completely emptied the original inner and outer courts, but this group of martial artists who were dancing with swords and guns would also cause the government to fall into a state of disorderly paralysis.

Li Jue would not care about Jia Xu's thoughts. What he thought of at this time was to insert his confidants and military officials into the court, gradually exclude them, and expose them to the court officials who cooperated inside and outside, and planned on him. As for the effect of the court's operation, this is no longer what he cares about.

"In addition, the court's Confucian scholars who were delayed by the war can also be given up. The official positions of men and servants are arranged to be recommended by those talents. As for those useless Confucian scholars, they should be rejected."

In addition to the channels of investigation, recruitment, and appointment, there were also Taishang students who served as officials. However, since the Party and the Corruption Disaster, this path was almost cut off. It was restored after the Ten Generals Rebellion. However, when Dong Zhuo moved the capital, the Taishang Capital was burned, and Taishang Students were naturally cut off.

Now the Chang'an court controlled by Li Jue has just stabilized. Opening the Sheng Ling, magnificent moral politics is the most important thing, but Li Jue is determined to turn the court into a one-man temple and list his own confidants in the court to block other people's path to officialdom.

At present, the prefectures and counties are under the control of prefectures and counties. It is normal for the prefect to appoint officials privately. The Chang'an court claimed that it could command the world, but what it could actually control was just the place in Guanzhong. Now Li Jue also has to take the lead in destroying the system of restoring the court.

Jia Xu was in charge of the Taichung of Shangshu and was responsible for state affairs. Seeing the collapse of Zuoxiong's system of "students test family rules, civil servants' lectures" after the reform, the political system went out of private schools, and the Confucian scholars retreated. The emperor and all officials could not threaten Li Jue, but the authority of the Chang'an court was gone. So why did Li Jue threaten to command the world?

Li Jue kept looking at Jia Xu. Seeing that Jia Xu was silent, he sneered:
Chapter completed!
