Chapter 625 Gao Qiu's revenge

That night, Li Daqi drank some wine to enhance his courage, and took the items entrusted by his son to the Taiwei Mansion. The Taiwei Mansion was very close to Freezer Street and only walked a mile away, the ox cart stopped in front of the Taiwei Mansion. An immediately a guard soldier came to interfere, "No parking is allowed here!"

Li Daqi walked off the ox cart and said with a smile: "I am Li Dongzhu of Baoyanzhai. I'm here to visit the Grand Marshal. Please inform me."

Baoyanzhai's owner was also a celebrity in the capital. The soldier immediately smiled and said, "Are you always trouble?"

"I have some private matters. I want to disturb the Grand Marshal. Please inform me!"

As he said that a ten tael of silver had entered the palm of the soldiers. Li Daqi had dealt with the government countless times and knew the power of these gatekeepers. They took chicken feathers as command arrows and did not report at all. They just said that the chief officer had rested and did not give them enough benefits. Gao Qiu would not want to know that he was coming.

The soldier immediately smiled and said, "Mr. Li waited for a moment, and I'll report it right away!"

"Missan'er, please greet Mr. Li, I'll go in and report it."

This soldier was hinting that his companions had benefited.

At this time, Gao Qiu had not yet rested and was writing a report in the study. Because of Liu Yanqing's crushing defeat in the Northern Expedition, Gao Qiu was more or less implicated. He was severely criticized by Zhao Ji, an official, and ordered him to train military talents. In the past two days, he has been racking his brains to select talents from the imperial guards.

At this time, a soldier outside the door reported: "Qi reported to the Grand Marshal, Baoyanzhai, Li Dongzhu said he had something private to ask for a meeting!"

Gao Qiu didn't deal with the businessman much. He was about to say no to see him casually, but suddenly realized that the owner of Baoyanzhai was Li Yanqing's father? This must be because Li Yanqing had something to look for him.

He pondered for a while and asked him to wait in the guest hall, and I would arrive soon.

Gao Qiu knew that Li Yanqing had just gone to Jingzhao, so his father came to find him, and he must have had a conflict with Yang Lin. This Yang Lin was also ridiculous. He would have any good results to eat with the deputy commander. He could kill him with the Qiang people.

When Gao Qiu thought of killing someone with a knife, his face felt a little hot. In order to get rid of Master Zhong, he also used the Xixia people to kill Li Yanqing. Now, Li Yanqing came to find him. Could it be that he really doesn't care about his old grudges?

Gao Qiu was thinking about something in his mind, so he changed into a dress and walked towards the guest hall with his hands behind his back.

Li Daqi was sitting in the living room drinking tea, but he was a little unhappy. How could this brat do it? There is no one in the court yet. In the end, he had to let himself come forward. He was a businessman. How could he do a lot of such things? Isn’t it great to let the Cao family come forward?

Li Daqi cursed his son in his heart for a while. At this time, a cough came from outside the lobby. Gao Qiu was here. Li Daqi hurriedly walked up to him and bowed, "Little Min Li Daqi has disturbed the Taiwei's rest!"

Gao Qiu waved his hand with a smile, "Mr. Li is so polite. Actually, you are not a villain, you have a title!"

Li Daqi was stunned for a moment, then he remembered that he had a title. He smiled bitterly and shook his head, "How can the title of Sesame be so embarrassed to show off in front of the Grand Marshal? It makes people laugh at it if it is heard."

Gao Qiu smiled, "Mr. Li is really good at speaking, please sit down!"

The two sat down, and Li Daqi did not go around the corner and handed a letter and a box to Gao Qiu. "I came here to be a messenger for the dog today. He asked me to hand over the box and letter to the Taiwei. There was no other words. I won't bother the Taiwei, so I will say goodbye first!"

"Thank you, Mr. Li. If you have any difficulties in Baoyanzhai in the future, just talk. As long as I can help, I will definitely do my best!"

"Thank you, Taiwei, remember the great things in my heart, I've said goodbye!"

Gao Qiu gave Li Yanqing enough face and kept sending Li Daqi out of the mansion. He watched him get on the cart and leave, and then he took the box and letter back to his study.

He sat down and opened the letter first, but after only a few lines, he jumped up suddenly and quickly opened the box. The box contained a secret communication between Yang Lin and Tong Guan.

Gao Qiu was so angry that his chest exploded. He grabbed the teacup and smashed it hard at the wall. With a 'bang!', the teacup was smashed to pieces.

When Xixia was defeated, he did not protect so many confidant generals, so he protected Yang Lin alone. Unexpectedly, he betrayed him and had already secretly defected to Tong Guan. Gao Qiu was so angry that he almost vomited blood.

"Tong Guan, old thief, if I don't kill you, my surname will never be Gao!" Gao Qiu gritted his teeth in hatred.

Tong Guan not only completely offended General Gao Qiu in pacifying Fang La, but also after the first Northern Expedition, Tong Guan issued a list of responsible persons, almost uprooting Gao Qiu's power in the Western Army. The two of them had become irreconcilable opponents.

Gao Qiu slowly calmed down after a while, and continued to read Li Yanqing's letter. In the letter, Li Yanqing pointed out Yang Lin's serious crime, stealing military funds, colluding with the Qiang people, and the evidence was conclusive and reported to the court, hoping that the court would punish him severely.

At the end of the letter, Li Yanqing mentioned Han Shizhong, saying that Han Shizhong was suppressed and demoted by Yang Lin, and he wanted to promote him as commander, and also wanted to promote Cao Xing as commander, hoping to get the support of Taiwei Gao.

Of course, Gao Qiu knew that Han Shizhong, Liu Yanqing's confidant general, was also his own person. Li Yanqing wanted to promote Han Shizhong, obviously showing kindness to him and paving the way for promoting Cao Xing.

Gao Qiu nodded. Li Yanqing was indeed mature. It happened that Shidao Zhong retired from his military backstage. He was no longer in the past, and this person was worthy of his own win over.

Gao Qiu thought about it and said that he would wait until the report came. He needed to communicate with Gao Shen again.

...........

Two days later, the official report from Jingzhao Prefecture was delivered to the Censorate. Since it was a report sent by Li Yanqing, the Censorate did not have a backlog. They immediately copied two copies to the Privy Council and the Ministry of War.

As soon as Gao Shen came to the official room to sit down, he saw the report on his desk. In fact, he heard a little news from the Cao family yesterday. No matter what the crime was used, it was essentially Li Yanqing seized military power.

The fifth-rank military general and the fifth-rank civil servant are not the same. The status is much lower, and there are cases of corrupt officials who have food to be borne in recent years. Those who have backstage are protected and those who have no backstage will be severely punished. For example, this is commonplace. Most of them are too arrogant and demoted and transferred.

However, this case involves Li Yanqing's military power, Gao Qiu and Tong Guan, and the affair with the Qiang people who were in riots made Gao Shen be cautious.

He carefully read the report twice. The description of the report should be conclusive. The only inappropriate thing is that Li Yanqing killed five partial generals and several personal soldiers. Of course, in the wartime state, the main general has the right to kill subordinates of the general who did not Zun Ling, but it is a bit difficult to say whether it was in the wartime state when killing people.

While pondering, Gao Qiu's voice came from the yard, "Can Gao Tongzhi be there?"

Gao Shen quickly smiled and greeted him, "Which fragrant wind has blown the Taiwei!"

Among the three giants of the Privy Council, Tong Guan served as the Privy Council, or the Privy Council envoy, Gao Qiu served as the Privy Council, and Gao Shen served as the same Privy Council. The two high schools were actually deputy positions, and Gao Qiu's status was slightly higher, but Tong Guan and Gao Qiu did not care about specific affairs, and the real power of the Privy Council was actually in the hands of Gao Shen.

Of course, Tong Guan and Gao Qiu both have the right to inquire about the affairs of the Privy Council, and both Gaoshen must be taken seriously.

Gao Qiu sighed, "I'm in a bad mood!"

"The Grand Marshal comes in and sit down! It's windy outside." Gao Shen said in a pun.

Gao Qiu nodded. Of course he could understand Gao Shen's words. This style is Tong Guan, and I'm afraid Tong Guan will not let it go.

When he walked into the official room and sat down, Gao Qiu did not go around the corner and said bluntly: "You have seen the case sent by Jingzhao Mansion, too!"

"Jingzhao Mansion? Which case is it?" Gao Shen asked deliberately pretending to be confused.

"Yang Lin's case was just delivered this morning." Gao Qiu looked at the other party with sharp eyes.

"So it was the case." Gao Shen quickly took out the report from under the table and smiled self-deprecatingly: "I just got it, but I haven't looked at it carefully yet!"

"I have read this report carefully. I can only say that the problem is very, very serious. I have an affair with the Qiang people. The current riots of the Qiang people are related to the Xixia. I suspect that this person's affair with the Xixia. If he is not punished severely, it may not be enough to warn the troops stationed on the border."

Gao Shen said carefully: "I heard that this Yang Lin was promoted by Liu Yanqing!"

Gao Qiu waved his hand, "It has nothing to do with whom I promote it. I only talk about this case. Our Privy Council must have a clear attitude. If he is not killed, there will be a second and third person who has an affair with the enemy country."

Gao Shen nodded, "My opinion is actually consistent with the Taiwei, but I'm afraid Taiwei Tong will also ask about this case."

Gao Qiu snorted coldly, "Of course he will ask, this case has cut his flesh!"

After pausing, Gao Qiu said again: "But when he is still thinking about his mistakes behind closed doors, we should not disturb his reflection. We signed this case and reported it to Zhizhengtang directly, so that Li Yanqing could get into the state as soon as possible and lead the army to the northern expedition."

Thinking about mistakes behind closed doors is actually a suspension of work. Today is the last day for Tong Guan to think about mistakes behind closed doors. Gao Qiu obviously wanted to seize this last day's opportunity to make the rice mature.

If the resolution of the Privy Council has been submitted and Tong Guan wants to object, he can only go to the emperor to plead with the emperor. The normal process is no longer possible, or he will go to Wang Fu and ask Wang Fu to call back the report of the Privy Council in Zhizheng Hall.

Of course, Gao Shen knew that he would offend Tong Guan by signing this report, but Mr. Cao also asked him to ask him, and he must help Li Yanqing.

Gao Shen pondered for a moment and said, "This is how I can submit a report with the Taiwei, but the normal steps must be taken. I will send a few more people to Jingzhao Mansion to verify. If the report is not true, then I will still submit a supplementary report."

According to the normal approach, it should be to send someone to verify first, the Privy Council then submit a report, and Gao Shen took action first and then reported, which obviously gave Gao Qiu enough face. How could Gao Qiu not know?

He stood up and smiled and said, "Thank you Tongzhi for your help. I will leave this case to me. I will send someone to verify it, so that some people will not have any objections to Tongzhi."
