After hearing Li Hao's question, Ouyang Xiu was silent for a while and then said: "You are now in an important position. There are some things that should be said to you, but before that, you should tell me your opinion."
Li Hao thought about his wording and said: "In fact, it is reasonable to say that this matter is not difficult to investigate. There are guarantors in all the local neighbors in Bianjing, and there are also travelers from out of town. Every household has one person and one animal, and everything is recorded in the record.
Even if it is a shady case, with Kaifeng Mansion, Three Government Offices, and even the Imperial City Department involved in the investigation, it is impossible that nothing will be found.
So nothing can be found, which already explains the problem. There are not many families in the huge Bianjing city who can do this. If we connect other things in series, it is not difficult to guess. I don't believe that my uncle would not have thought of it. "
After listening to Li Hao's words, Ouyang Xiu said: "I can think of this, the officials can think of it, and even the Rong family can think of it, but everyone has a tacit understanding and pretends not to know."
"So it's very strange that the man is so arrogant and domineering. Why don't the officials and several ministers deal with the matter? This is not the behavior of a wise king." Li Hao said.
Ouyang Xiu sighed and explained: "If something like this happened in the early years, the officials would definitely handle it to the end.
But it doesn't work now. The official's health is getting worse day by day, and the matter of establishing a prince can no longer be postponed.
Now only King Yong and King Yan are suitable, not to mention that they have been making friends with courtiers in Beijing over the years, and the trend has been established.
For the sake of the country and the country, this matter will not be solved until the official family finally establishes the heir apparent. "
Li Hao was really speechless for this explanation, and because neither King Yan nor King Yong was a good person, he couldn't say that he would help King Yan deal with King Yong.
Thinking of this, Li Hao suddenly thought of Zhao Zongquan. He didn't hear any news when he returned to Beijing this time. He didn't know if Zhao Zongquan died in an assassination after Gu Tingye was gone.
When he had some free time, Li Hao decided to send someone to inquire, maybe he would have a chance to ascend the throne in the end.
When the time comes, he will have the military power in Bianjing, and he will also be able to achieve the goal of following the dragon.
When Li Hao was in a daze and thinking about something, Ouyang Xiu thought that Li Hao couldn't accept this situation.
Then he comforted him and said, "You don't have to worry too much. The Grand Prime Ministers of Korea, China and South Korea are here, and they will definitely advise people to do good."
Li Hao was even more speechless at this. He was not a good person before he became the emperor. What a hell if he could be persuaded to be good after he became the emperor.
However, Li Hao did not argue, and only said: "In this case, the officials asked me to intervene in the security of Bianjing, and they didn't ask me to fight against them."
Ouyang Xiu said: "You think too much, just do your own thing, be impartial in dealing with things, and don't think too much about other things."
Li Hao still felt that this matter was not as simple as Ouyang Xiu said, but after all, the matter was not yet imminent, so he could only wait until he met.
So after listening to the lesson, Li Hao said goodbye. After all, he had to return to the camp early to inform him of the good news about the holiday repairs.
When Li Hao rode back to the camp, he was surrounded by people as soon as he entered the camp.
The leader among them was Gu Tingye, who first asked: "What reward will the officials give you for calling you into the palace this time? Also, did they tell us how we will arrange the next step."
After hearing this, Li Hao pushed everyone aside, found a chair and sat down, and then said: "The official summoned me today just to encourage me, and he didn't say anything else.
As for the reward, we have to wait until three days later. The officials asked us to prepare for three days first. When we return to the camp, an internal official will come to deliver the order.
I'm here just to tell you about Xiumu's news. Haven't you wanted to go home for a long time? Hurry up. "
Hearing Li Hao's words, the camp suddenly became noisy, and everyone dispersed in a hurry. Many people even didn't even plan to pack their things, and directly invited people to ride horses and rush to Bianjing.
After everyone left, Gu Tingye and Yuan Wenshao returned to the camp.
Gu Tingye came in and asked: "What's the matter? It's so mysterious that we are asked to come back alone."
Li Hao ignored Gu Tingye's complaints and told the officials about the arrangements in the palace. He also explained: "I didn't say anything just now because there is no clear purpose on this matter after all, and it would be bad if there were changes.
Telling you two in advance is to let you two have a plan. "
Then he said to Gu Tingye: "Especially you. Since you have joined the army, I think Ningyuan Marquis should have some plans. You might as well ask."
Gu Tingye didn't say anything after hearing this, so Li Hao left directly after telling the two of them not to spread the word.
After packing his things, Li Hao got on his horse and rushed to his house. After more than four months, Li Hao finally returned to his home.
As soon as they entered the house, Wei and Li Jian ran over, pulled Li Hao and asked if he was injured. After Li Hao said he was not injured, he still didn't believe it.
There happened to be a doctor at home, so he directly pulled him over and took Li Hao's pulse.
It wasn't until they got the doctor's confirmation that they felt relieved, and then they thought of asking someone to clean up Li Hao's yard.
Then he pulled Li Hao into the main hall to talk.
When Wei asked about the march, Li Hao picked up the interesting things he saw along the way and told them about it. He also mentioned that he went to Youyang and met Minglan.
But he did not tell Minglan about what the doctor said, and told the Wei family the approximate time of returning to Bianjing.
Then he asked if there was anything going on at home while he was out.
So Wei talked about all kinds of trivial matters in these days, which made Li Hao feel sleepy.
Seeing this, Mrs. Wei asked Li Hao to go back to the house to rest first, but as soon as he lay down, Li Hao was too lazy to move.
So he lay at home for three days and then rushed back to the camp energetically, waiting for the canonization decree to arrive.
On the fourth day, under the repeated calls of everyone, the imperial edict finally arrived.
After a complete edict-proclaiming ceremony, Li Hao politely sent the officials away after receiving the edict.
I came back and opened the imperial edict to look at it in detail. I saw that with this award, all officers were promoted to one level. For example, Li Hao was promoted to Chaosan doctor and personal guard doctor, and was appointed as the internal inspection commander. From then on, he can wear red officers. Impressed.
As for the others, their official ranks have only been promoted, and their specific positions have not yet been determined. They have to wait for Li Hao to report.
In addition, the decree also mentioned that the Internal Inspection Department was under the jurisdiction of two armies, allowing Li Hao to recruit troops to fill the vacancies.
This means that Li Hao has more choices when it comes to arranging everyone's positions. Of course, Li Hao has no intention of actually taking charge of it himself.
Li Hao first called Gu Tingye, Xu Ning, Yang Wenyuan, and Yuan Wenshao in public, and then asked the others to disperse.
After a few people entered the camp, Li Hao explained his plan: "We are in Bianjing now, and we don't have to go to the battlefield for the time being, so my plan is to split the current imperial camp army into two, and use the old to lead the new. To train people and horses.
Of course, it is up to the two military commanders to figure out how to recruit troops. If they are recruited early, they can be trained as soon as possible. If you don't call them all, you will be embarrassed and embarrassed by others.
In addition, regarding the deployment of officers between the two armies, they will each select the officers. After the selection is completed, they will give me the list. I will report it after confirming that there are no problems. "
After finishing speaking, Li Hao paused for a moment and then named the two military commanders in his mind.
