Their Lucky Star Was Transmigrated! Chapter 552: This is called strategizing!
The Xu residence began with the Taiping King Xu Zhengqi.
It is the first family of the founding nobles of the Tang Dynasty, and shares weal and woe with the royal family.
And Mrs. Xu was an orphan adopted by the founding emperor of the Tang Dynasty. Later, he worshipped Xu Zhengqi as his adoptive father, and finally married Xu Zhengqi's third son.
An orphan girl of unknown origin once stood at the top of the Great Tang Pyramid.
In front of him, there is endless favor.
Behind him, Ai Rong is better.
The nobles, royal families, and ministers of civil and military affairs in the capital all rushed to the Xu residence to express their condolences to Mrs. Xu.
On this day, in the capital, white paper was pressed against the streets.
While dealing with the affairs of Mrs. Xu's death, there is one more thing that must be checked.
Old Lady Xu was poisoned by someone. Who was the person who started this? If you don't find out, how to comfort Old Lady Xu's spirit in the sky.
"Xu Yuanzu, this is the truth you found?"
The queen mother looked at the two people who were taken down by Xu Yuanzu, her face was not ordinary ugly.
These two people, one is a mama who has been with the old lady Xu for many years, and the other little girl is a child of Xu's family. These two people are in love and reason, and there is no reason to poison the old lady Xu.
"Back to the Queen Mother, no, no!"
Xu Yuanzu hurriedly responded, "I, I just controlled the two who saw the old lady last. I don't know what the truth is!"
As a person who came from the countryside to the capital, even if he was admitted as a scholar, Xu Yuanzu still looked a little petty and cramped when facing the Queen Mother.
The queen mother gave Xu Yuanzu a disgusting look, then looked at the eldest princess who was with her, and asked the eldest princess to take over the investigation of this matter.
"Don't worry, the imperial sister-in-law, the ministers and sisters will definitely find out the truth, so as to comfort the old lady's spirit in heaven!"
The eldest princess made this errand without hesitation.
Isn't it just investigation?
The old lady Xu died of poisoning. As long as the person who handled the bird's nest used by the old lady is found out, if the real culprit cannot be found, then all those involved will be executed, even if there is a wrong killing. , but the murderer is also inescapable.
The news of Mrs. Xu's death soon spread from the capital.
As soon as Xu Shuo, the Duke of Ding, who killed the savages in the cold northern region, received the news, he immediately left his errand and returned to the capital on a starry night.
Although he has been expelled from the Xu residence, Mrs. Xu is his mother after all.
How could he not be there when his mother passed away?
As for the errand of exterminating the savages, love whoever.
Xu Shuo, who had suffered a crushing defeat, wanted to return to the capital for a long time. Now that he has this ample excuse, why would he hesitate?
Xu Shuo ran without hesitation.
Compared to Xu Shuo's straightforwardness, Emperor Yongping in Jingbian City, Qifeng Mansion, was still hesitating.
He's on the road!
Now that the battle is at a stalemate, Datang is already at a disadvantage.
If he, the emperor, left like this, if his morale plummeted, the result would be even worse.
However, Emperor Yongping also understood that even if he stayed in Jingbian City, the impact on the overall situation would be minimal.
Using the opportunity of Mrs. Xu's death, it is more or less reasonable for him to return to Beijing as a teacher.
"Grandpa Lan, what do you think?"
Emperor Yongping looked at Eunuch Lan next to him and asked thoughtfully.
Eunuch Lan, who has been on duty beside Emperor Yongping for a long time, used to keep his mouth shut as a close **** guard, but now that he has spoken, he can only continue to speak.
"Your Majesty, the slaves feel that the old lady has a noble status, and she was murdered by thieves. Your Majesty, you should return to Beijing!"
"Okay, then pass on my will, and the class teacher will return to the court immediately!"
After this time, Emperor Yongping no longer had any intention of making achievements.
This person, without being beaten up by society, will never know what he can and cannot do.
At one time, I thought that I would become the best among the emperors of the Tang Dynasty by my own ability, and Emperor Yongping was also really hardworking. Even at the risk of risking his own life.
Now, he is sober.
He is only suitable for sitting in the Temple of Heaven and strategizing.
As for the battle on the battlefield and the crusade against foreign enemies, these things still have to be left to others. This other person, such as King Yan, such as Marquis Wu Cheng, such as Uncle Wu
And these noble families in the capital, who have been handed down since the founding of the country, have lost the ability of their ancestors and have to be gradually eliminated.
Emperor Yongping, who hasn't returned to the capital, has already begun to think about how to clean up the corpses and the generals.
As an emperor, his thoughts are still very positive.
Unfortunately, in the 100-year history of the Tang Dynasty, no matter whether it is noble or noble, or the family of military generals, it has become a climate. If Emperor Yongping rashly wants to cut everything, he is afraid that he will be severely beaten by the society. If he is unlucky, It is possible to directly lose a small life.
When the will of Emperor Yongping to return to the DPRK was conveyed, the soldiers and horses of the Second North and South Battalions who stayed in Jingbian City burst into thunderous roars in an instant.
In the 100 years of the Tang Dynasty, the degenerates are more than the noble family. Even the North and South Second Battalions, which used to be able to conquer and fight, have become pretentious.
Xiangyi Mansion is near Yaocheng, the prefect's yamen.
Old Master Xu also received the news of the passing of the old lady of the Xu residence, and the news came from the carriage caravan from Xiangyi government that ran to the capital.
The official carriage of Xiangyi Prefecture, under the operation of Boss Xu, has formed a very special intelligence system.
"Dad, do you think it's time for the emperor to return to court?"
Receiving the news of Mrs. Xu's passing, Mr. Xu found Mr. Xu immediately.
Old Master Xu smiled and said, "As long as he still has brains, he will definitely return to the court."
"Dad, don't we have to go to Qifeng Mansion?"
Second Xu had a look of joy, he didn't want to help this dog emperor to fight for a long time.
"No, we have to go, and we have to leave quickly!"
This time, Mr. Xu gave the diametrically opposite answer.
"The emperor will return to the DPRK, but in Jingbian City, there will definitely be a lot of soldiers, horses, food, grass and weapons left behind. These are all good things. Whoever gets it will belong to whoever gets it!"
Since the chaos in the world has become a foregone conclusion, they naturally have to do their best to enrich their own forces.
Emperor Yongping personally fought, and Jingbian City of Qifeng Mansion gathered not only the soldiers and horses brought by Emperor Yongping from the capital, but also the town troops of Qifeng Mansion and Donglin Mansion.
When Emperor Yongping returned to Beijing, the soldiers and horses of the second north and south battalions would definitely follow them back to Beijing, but 90% of the troops belonging to Qifeng Mansion and Donglin Mansion would stay.
Master Xu had the idea of these soldiers and horses.
If they operate properly, Qifeng Mansion and Donglin Mansion will be brought under their control.
As long as you control Xiangyi Mansion, Donglin Mansion and Qifeng Mansion, then you can enter Longxi Mansion and expel all the northern barbarians who are wandering in Longxi Mansion.
At that time, the four palaces in the northwest of the Tang Dynasty will all be in the hands of the old Xu family.
This is called strategizing!
