Chapter 574: This is called strategizing!

Xu Mansion began with the Taiping King Xu Zhengqi.

It is the first noble family of the founding of the Tang Dynasty, and shares

weal and woe with the royal family.

Lao Taijun Xu, an orphan adopted by the founding emperor of Tang Dynasty,

later worshipped Xu Zhengqi as his foster father, and finally married Xu

Zhengqi's third son.

An unknown orphan girl once stood at the top of the pyramid of Datang.

In front of him, endless honors.

Behind him, Ai Rong wins even more.

The nobles, the royal family, and the ministers of civil and military affairs

all rushed to the Xu Mansion to express condolences to Old Madam Xu.

On this day, the capital was plain and white paper was on the street.

It's just that while dealing with the affairs of Old Lady Xu, there is one

more thing that needs to be checked.

Old Mrs. Xu was poisoned and killed. Who is the one who started this attack?

Without finding out, how to comfort Mrs. Xu's spirit in the sky.

"Xu Yuanzu, is this the truth you found?"

The queen mother looked at the two people who had been taken down by Xu

Yuanzu's people, her face was not generally ugly.

Of these two people, one was a grandmother who had been with Xu Lao Taijun for

many years, and the other little girl was a son of Xu's family. The two men

were both in their sensibility and reason, and neither had a reason to poison

Xu Lao Taijun.

"Back to the empress mother, no, no!"

Xu Yuanzu hurriedly responded, "I, I just controlled the two who saw the old

lady last time. I don't know the truth yet!"

As a person who came to the capital from the countryside, even if he was

admitted as a talent, Xu Yuanzu still looked a little bit petty and cramped in

the face of the queen mother.

The queen mother looked at Xu Yuanzu disgustingly, looked at the princess who

was with her, and let the princess take over the investigation of this matter.

"The emperor's sister-in-law, don't worry, the minister's sister will find out

the truth to comfort the old lady's spirit in heaven!"

The princess did not hesitate to conclude this errand.

Isn't it just investigating the case?

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 murderer cannot be

found, all those involved in it will be killed. Although there was a wrong

killing, that The murderer is also inevitable.

...

The news of Mr. Xu's death soon spread from the capital.

As soon as Dingguo Duke Xu Shuo, who had wiped out the savages in the cold

northern region, received the news, he immediately left his errands and

returned to the capital with starry night.

Although he has been expelled from Xu Mansion, Mr. Xu is his mother in the

end.

How could he not be there when his mother died?

As for the task of destroying the savages, whoever loves so.

Xu Shuo, who had suffered a disastrous defeat, had long wanted to return to

the capital. Now that he has such ample excuses, where can he hesitate?

Xu Shuo ran without hesitation.

Compared with Xu Shuo's crispness, Emperor Yongping, who was far away in the

Jingbian City of Qifeng Mansion, was still hesitating.

He is a personal conquest of the imperial driver!

Now that the battle is in a stalemate, Datang is already at a disadvantage.

If he, the emperor, left in this way, if the morale dropped, the result would

be even worse.

However, Emperor Yongping also understood that even if he stayed in Jingbian

City, his impact on the overall situation would be minimal.

Taking advantage of Xu Laotaijun's death, his class teacher returned to

Beijing, more or less justified.

"Father Lan, what do you think?"

Emperor Yongping looked at Father Lan next to him and asked thoughtfully.

The father-in-law Lan, who had been serving as a servant by Emperor Yongping

for a long time, used to be a close guard and ** silently, but now that he

has spoken, he can only continue to speak.

"Holy Lord, the servants feel that the old lady is noble and she was murdered

by the thief. You should return to Beijing, Lord!"

"Okay, then pass my will, and the class teacher will return to the court

immediately!"

After this time, Emperor Yongping no longer had any thoughts to make

contributions.

This person, don't be beaten up by the society, and never know what he can or

can't do.

At one time I thought of becoming the best among the emperors of the Tang

Dynasty by his own ability, and Emperor Yongping was really hard at it. Even,

he didn't hesitate to take his own life to bet.

Now, he is sober.

He is only suitable for sitting in the Temple of Heaven, 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 Wu Chenghou, such as Uncle Yong Wu...

However, the nobles and nobles in the capital that have been handed down since

the founding of the country, the family of military commanders, has no longer

the ability of the ancestors, and has to be slowly eliminated.

Emperor Yongping, who had not yet returned to the capital, had already begun

to ponder in his heart how to clean up the nobles and generals of these corpse

positions.

As an emperor, his thinking is still very positive.

It’s a pity that in the century of the Tang Dynasty, whether it is honorable

or a family of military commanders, it has become a climate. If Emperor

Yongping recklessly wants to cut across the board, he is afraid that he will

be beaten by the society again. If he is unlucky, he will just lose it. Little

fate is possible.

When the Yongping Emperor's group's will to return to the court was conveyed,

the soldiers and horses of the South and North Second Battalions who stayed

behind in Jingbian City instantly burst into thunderous roars of joy.

In the hundred years of the Tang Dynasty, the depravity is more than the

family of nobles. Even the second battalion of the North and the South, which

was once able to conquer the battle, has become a flowery.

...

Xiangyi Mansion Linyao City, the prefect Yamen.

The old man Xu also received the news of the death of the old prince of Xu

Mansion, and the news came from the carriage caravan from Xiangyi Mansion

running to the capital.

The official carriage of Xiangyi Mansion, under the operation of Boss Xu,

formed a very special intelligence system.

"Father, do you think the emperor should return to the court?"

Upon receiving the news of Mr. Xu's death, Mr. Xu found Mr. Xu for the first

time.

Mr. Xu smiled and said, "As long as he still has a brain, he will definitely

return to the court."

"Father, then don't we need to go to Qifeng Mansion?"

Xu Lao Er suddenly looked happy, he didn't want to go to fight the dog emperor

for a long time.

"No, we have to go, and we have to hurry up!"

Mr. Xu gave a completely opposite answer this time.

"The emperor's class will return to the court, but in Jingbian City, there

will definitely be a lot of soldiers, horses, grain and ordnance. These are

all good things. Whoever gets it will go to whom!"

Since the chaos in the world has become a foregone conclusion, they naturally

have to do their best to enrich their own strength.

Yongping Emperor personally conquered, Qifeng Mansion Jingbian City not only

gathered the soldiers and horses that Yongping Emperor brought from the

capital, but also many people gathered from Qifeng Mansion and Donglin

Mansion's town army.

When Emperor Yongping returned to Beijing, the soldiers and horses of the

North and South Second Battalions would definitely follow them back to

Beijing, but 90% of the troops belonging to Qifeng Mansion and Donglin Mansion

would stay.

The old man Xu got the idea of these soldiers and horses.

If they operate properly, Qifeng Mansion and Donglin Mansion will be

controlled by them.

As long as you control Xiangyi Mansion, Donglin Mansion, and Qifeng Mansion,

you can enter Longxi Mansion and expel all the Northern Barbarians who

circulate in Longxi Mansion.

By then, the four northwestern residences of Datang will all enter the hands

of the old Xu family.

This is called strategizing!
