Chapter four hundred and seventy-six people worth knowing
The specific battle on the battlefield actually has nothing to do with the emperor. When Li Xin asked this question, he did not ask how Emperor Taikang should fight the tactics ahead, but the emperor and the court's attitude towards southern Xinjiang.
In other words, how should the imperial court respond to southern Xinjiang in a general direction?
The emperor frowned and said, "Chang'an, what do you mean?"
Li Xin lowered his eyebrows slightly.
"What I mean is, if there is a chaos in the southwest, what kind of attitude should the court be towards southern Xinjiang?"
The emperor lowered his head and thought for a while, then spoke slowly.
"If you can do not die on a large scale, don't die on a large scale."
The emperor sighed.
"The Pingnan Hou Mansion has been operating for 30 years, and southern Xinjiang has indeed become a climate. If you force yourself to do it, even if you win, at least the 100,000 people in the Right Camp of the Imperial Army will be difficult to get back. These are all my people."
The emperor took a deep breath and continued, "If I really want to fight, I won't be afraid of them, but if I have the opportunity to take advantage of it, I am willing to take advantage of it."
Li Xin whispered: "What is a skill?"
The emperor was silent for a while and said, "For example, you can start with the remnants of Southern Shu and let them abandon the darkness and turn to the light. For example, start with the eldest brother. As long as the eldest brother is not in the southern border, the Pingnan Army will not be afraid and can slowly waste them to death."
In fact, there is still a third situation, that is, the surrender of the Pingnan Army. However, in this situation, the possibility of the Pingnan Army surrender is not high. After all, the flag has been raised, and everyone knows that there is no way to survive in surrender.
Overall, the emperor's attitude is still very obvious, that is, try to win southern Xinjiang at the lowest cost.
This is a matter of course. After all, if the current Jin court wants to seize the southern border and fight head-on, all the right camp of the imperial guards will be involved. In addition, the left camp of the imperial guards will also participate in the war, and the defenses of the capital will be wiped out at that time.
After chewing, I will also have to break a few teeth.
This is one of the reasons why neither Emperor Wu nor Emperor Chengde did to attack Southern Xinjiang.
Li Xin lowered his head slightly and said in a deep voice: "So, I understand."
"In addition, I think there is another thing to do."
The emperor said in a deep voice: "You said."
"The world's remarks must be in the hands of the court."
The Marquis of Jing'an lowered his eyebrows and said, "According to His Majesty, the southern Xinjiang is using speech to build momentum for the deposed prince. This momentum is very dangerous. If everyone in the world thinks that the deposed prince is orthodox, then the southern Xinjiang will truly have the ability to threaten the court. Therefore, the imperial court must send troops to the place, and on the other hand, it must actively control the remarks. For example, the Northern Zhou clans must let them stand on Your Majesty's side and speak for Your Majesty."
The emperor smiled.
"I know this. Yang Guo from Hongnong Yang family and the people from the Cui family of Boling have agreed to write a proclamation for me to fight against the thieves. They will spread it to the world in a few days."
Li Xin nodded.
"In this way, I will feel relieved."
After pausing, Li Xin continued, "Your Majesty, these Northern Zhou clans can not be killed, but they must not be officials anymore. The emperors of our great Jin Dynasty have been attacking the clans. When it comes to His Majesty's generation, they should be buried completely in the mud pile and they must not be rekindled."
“This is natural.”
Emperor Taikang put away the smile on his face and looked serious.
"They betrayed the court first, and it should have been the end of the clan's punishment, but because they are still useful, they will temporarily save their lives. I have ordered the Ministry of Personnel that no one from these Northern Zhou clans will be allowed to be an official within three generations."
This is very cruel.
The aristocratic race must have people carrying the burden of the family. As long as one generation cannot become an official, they will be invincible. Three generations cannot become officials, and everyone will push them down. Three generations will have at least fifty years later. Fifty years are enough for them to lie in the grave pit and swallow their last breath.
The two seemed to have returned to their days at the Wei Palace and began to talk about the court affairs randomly until it was almost dark in the evening when the Ninth Princess came back from Kunde Palace to remind Li Xin. Li Xin came to his senses and stood up to say goodbye to the emperor.
The emperor smiled: "I haven't had such a happy long talk with Chang'an for a long time. When I am free, I will also visit your Jing'an Marquis Mansion."
Li Xin said respectfully: "I will definitely welcome the emperor."
The emperor stretched his waist, sat up from the chair, and said lazily: "I am a little tired, so I won't give it to you anymore. Xiao Zheng, I'll give it to Marquis Jing'an and the eldest princess for me."
Xiao Zheng nodded immediately and walked in front of Li Xin to lead the way.
While walking on the road, Li Xin held the Ninth Princess with one hand, turned around and looked at the young eunuch, the young prisoner, and asked with a smile: "Eunuch Xiao, what's going on with Eunuch Chen now?"
"It's OK."
Xiao Zheng got married a few days ago and took Li Xin a huge advantage. Now he is still a little nervous when facing Li Xin.
"Eunuch Chen is guarding the imperial tomb for the late emperor. His Majesty also likes him. He specially asked the Ministry of Works to set up a house next to the imperial tomb, and the old man is enjoying his blessings in the house."
Speaking of this, Xiao Zheng sighed with some envy.
"If we who have entered the palace as slaves, we can have such a result as Eunuch Chen in our lifetime, it will be a perfect result."
This sentence is true. The eunuch's deformed structure is very difficult to get along. On the one hand, it is difficult to make a breakthrough, and on the other hand, it is rare to die well after making a breakthrough. If you can have a peaceful place like Chen Ju, you will have a purity when you grow old for 10 or 20 years, that is the ultimate goal of all eunuchs.
Li Xin smiled and said nothing.
"If Eunuch Chen doesn't return to the palace, then the position of the eunuch is Eunuch Xiao."
Xiao Zheng waved his hands repeatedly.
"I dare not think about it. Marquis, don't make fun of me."
As he spoke, the three of them had already arrived at the gate of Yong'an. Xiao Zheng bowed to the two of them and said, "Marty, Princess, I still have something to do in the palace, so I will send you here."
While holding the Ninth Princess onto the carriage, Li Xin turned around and said with a smile: "It's a blessing for Eunuch Xiao."
Xiao Zheng gradually left.
The carriage from the Jing'an Marquis Mansion also started slowly.
Li Xin and the Ninth Princess were sitting in the carriage. Because of the cold, Li Xin added a piece of charcoal or two to the stove.
The Ninth Princess sat next to Li Xin, held Li Xin's hand and asked, "What are you doing when asking about the pickled things in the palace?"
Li Xin was stunned for a moment, then touched her head and said with a smile: "The Eight Inner Palace is sometimes no worse than the six ministries of the court. If you want to survive well in the capital, you must know more people, otherwise you will be blinded when things come to an end."
The eldest princess hugged Li Xin's arm and snorted: "It's useless to know these people. They are not familiar with them."
The Ninth Princess didn't understand Li Xin's behavior of making friends with eunuchs.
Because in her opinion, no matter how good these people are, they are just domestic slaves.
But for Li Xin, these are all connection resources.
He has no foundation in the capital, so he can only do his best to meet all the people worth knowing.
Maybe one day it will come in handy.
