Otaku Engineer in Great Tang Dynasty Chapter 1335: On the eve of the expedition, search the whole city!
The hundreds of officials in Chang'an City were busy, and the people were panicked when they heard the war. The soldiers of the three armies heard the news, and Jin Ge and Iron Horse helped Luoyang!
The "War Order" signed by Li Er, the ruler of the Datang Empire, turned Chang'an City into a wartime state. 60,000 to 70,000 people were mobilized to fight the rebellion in Zhengzhou. This is not a trivial matter. The army The mobilization, the armouring of soldiers, and the allocation of grain and straw must be coordinated by officials from various departments in the hall. What's more, the military situation is urgent, and the army will be deployed tomorrow, and the officials will be even more busy!
Officials from the six departments of the Chaotang Department now all want to have eight legs. Those officials who ask for leave at home will be recalled. Unless you are sick and bedridden, you will have to return to your yamen duty even if the sky falls. .
In my impression, the sixth department of the imperial court was as busy as today, and it has to be traced back to when the Turkic soldiers came to the city in the 9th year of Wude...
This temporary emergency war brought a huge test to all the departments of the Tang court, and it was also a good time to test the efficiency of the officials of the six departments of the court!
In the Temple of Ganlu.
Li Er didn't have a moment to spare either.
For the whole afternoon, courtiers kept coming in and out from here, reporting to him the progress of the army's preparations for the expedition. At this time, a special and infrequent person appeared in the Ganlu Temple.
"Your Majesty, all officials related to the Qinghe Cui family, Boring Cui family, and Xingyang Zheng family in Chang'an City have all been monitored by Baiqi. Once they act rashly, they will be taken down immediately!"
This person is Li Junxian, the one who is in charge of Baiqi for Li Er!
"Well! Jun Xian, you did a good job! In addition, you have to be wary of these officials from passing on to the flying pigeons in Zhengzhou!"
Li's eyes flashed coldly, and he said in a deep voice.
The Qinghe Cui family, the Xingyang Zheng family, and the Boring Zheng family are three thousand-year-old clans. Now many officials of the Tang court were scholars who depended on these three families. After all, although the imperial court opened the imperial examination, the current scholars Attaching to the family is still the mainstream of the times. Under this circumstance, Li Er did not guard against those courtiers related to the Cui family and Zheng family secretly telling the news!
At this time, Li Er must be grateful to his old son Li Yuan. After Li Yuan built the Tang Dynasty, he has already begun to deliberately exclude officials from aristocratic families from the center of power. Although there are still A considerable part of the officials come from aristocratic families, but very few are in important positions. At present, the emerging aristocratic group of Datang has gradually had the strength to compete with the old family members!
"The ministers follow the order!"
Li Junxian hugged his fists and walked away.

Yunshan Courtyard.
"Lady, are you blaming your husband for letting the iron eggs go to Zhengzhou?"
After finishing all the work in the afternoon, Li Zexuan saw Han Yuxi sitting alone in the courtyard in a daze. He walked gently behind him, bent down to stop Han Yuxi's waist, and whispered in her ear.
"Manimate!"
Suddenly hugged by someone, Han Yuxi was taken aback. When she turned her head to see that it was Li Zexuan, she leaned her head on Li Zexuan's shoulder and said softly, "Msang, the concubine did not blame you, the concubine I know, you are also for the sake of the iron egg. If you can earn a share of military merit, he will be honored! But the concubine has only such a younger brother. Suddenly he went to such a far place alone, and the concubine was very worried. !"
Seeing my lady frowning, Li Zexuan stroked her cheek with some distress, and then said: "The lady doesn't need to worry. He is not going to Zhengzhou to charge the front line. He should be just managing intelligence in the Chinese military account. That's it! Besides, the current iron egg also has martial arts, even if it encounters an accident, he can also have the ability to protect himself, don't you think?"
Han Yuxi turned around, put her forehead on Li Zexuan's forehead, and looked at Li Zexuan's eyes with a clear gaze. After a while, she only listened to her softly: "The concubine listens to me, and he is the nobleman of our Han family. , Is also the lucky star of our Han family. Xianggong said that there will be nothing wrong with Tiedan, so there must be nothing wrong!"
Li Zexuan couldn't help smiling and said: "Hey! Do you dare to love your grandfather and still have this ability?"
I made a joke, Li Zexuan's face was solemn, and he said: "Okay, don't be upset, lady, you have to go see your grandfather and grandmother, especially grandmother, she heard that Fashan was trapped in the city. After that, I can’t eat lunch, I have to check it out!"
Han Yuxi nodded, and said: "Well! That concubine will go with the grandfather!"
"Good too!"
…………………………
The sky is getting darker, but today’s Chang’an City has not become quiet because of the curfew. The six yamen near the imperial city are still brightly lit, and there are still troops or food trucks passing by on the streets. All these signs, All heralds the outbreak of a war!
Correspondingly, in Guancheng County, it is not peaceful tonight because the state capital's army is catching thieves!
The cause of the incident also began when the king's book returned to the county office in the afternoon.
"Lord county magistrate, Cui Taigong will do something tomorrow. Before that, our county government must get rid of the spies first! Otherwise, if Cui Taigong's major incident is broken, we may not be saved!"
The master book of the king came to Houya and found Cui Yong, the magistrate of Guancheng County, who was drinking tea and listening to the song, a distant relative of the Cui family, and said something.
Cui Yong squinted his eyes when he heard the words, and said: "Huh? What does the king's book mean? There are spies in the county office? Who?"
The king's book looked around, Cui Yong waved his hand impatiently: "It's all right! You all go down!"
The maidservants serving around, and the girl who had just played the little tune, all retired.
Only then did the king's book carefully said: "My lord county magistrate, Ye Xiancheng is the spy lurking in our county office!"
Cui Yong was taken aback. He stomped his eyes, swallowed, and said: "The king's book, you can't talk nonsense about this, do you have any real evidence?"
"The county magistrate~IndoMTL.com~Of course there is no official subordinate, Ye Minglei, he will definitely be cautious when doing this kind of thing, where will he leave a handle? But if you think about it, the magistrate, Ye Minglei is with the Nanyang Ye clan. There is an inexplicable connection, and the next official heard a letter from a friend in Chang'an last month saying that the old man of the Ye family went to Chang'an last year to recognize his relatives, and he recognized him as Yonganhou! You said that Ye Minglei would help Cui in the future Grandpa, or help the present-day saint?
Furthermore, several times before, Cui Taigong asked us to force the people into the army. Ye Xiancheng has always been stubborn and pushed back and forth. Do you think he has ulterior motives? The magistrate, forgive Wang Mou bluntly, at this critical time, we would rather kill a thousand by mistake than kill one! Otherwise, you and I will be dead! "
Finally, the county magistrate Cui was moved by the king’s book, and immediately asked the county government’s catcher to go to Ye’s family to ask Ye Minglei to talk to the county’s government. Ye’s family is now behind closed doors to thank the guests, and the county’s catcher cannot get in. Later, the king's chief book personally took the yakuza and rushed to Ye Mansion, only to discover that all Ye Minglei's family had disappeared!
So, under various reports, the governor's mansion was alarmed, and the soldiers and horses of the state capital were in the same county as the government officials, and the whole city began to search for Ye Minglei!
