When Li Hao called Yang Wenyuan, informed him of his mission and asked him to assemble the imperial army.
When Chen Zhong saw this, he came over and asked, "What are you doing, sir? Are you leaving the camp?"
Li Hao replied: "Cao Tiju just came to the camp and called me over. He said that there was some commotion in Bianjing City and that he needed to mobilize the imperial camp troops to follow him into the city. Marquis Ningyuan and Duke Ling also agreed to this. "
Upon hearing the news, Chen Zhong hurriedly asked: "What about us? Did you tell us what to do?"
Li Hao explained: "I haven't heard of this. After all, I don't know the specific situation. It was Master Tiju who gave the order directly.
So I don’t know how Master Tiju discussed this with Marquis Ningyuan and Duke Lingguo.
The reason why I wanted to transfer the Royal Camp Army was because I had been in charge of public security in the city before, so I could just be transferred to serve. As for the others, there might be other arrangements.
Moreover, Commander Chen doesn't have anything to worry about. Even if we are not here, the Imperial Guards are members of the Imperial City Division after all, and Marquis Ningyuan and Duke Ling will always have to take care of them. "
After listening to Li Hao's words, Chen Zhong said: "That's true. In that case, I won't waste your time."
While talking, Yang Wenyuan came to report that the imperial camp was ready, and then Li Hao went to the Chinese army tent to report to Cao Jingxiu.
After learning that the troops were ready to set off, Cao Jingxiu, Marquis Ningyuan and Ling Guo announced their resignation and left.
Li Hao led Cao Jingxiu to the imperial camp. He thought that Cao Jingxiu would have to say a few words, but he acted vigorously and directly ordered everyone to march into the city.
Cao Jingxiu took the lead, and Li Hao accompanied Cao Jingxiu. The specific team was led by Yang Wenyuan from behind.
On the way, Cao Jingxiu first asked Li Hao a lot of questions about the imperial camp. Li Hao just thought that he wanted to know more about the situation so that he could make calls easily.
But during the questioning, he mentioned that half of the people were in the palace now.
Cao Jingxiu suddenly said: "The men and horses in the palace are probably led by Erlang of the Gu family. Ning Yuanhou's son is also a general.
Speaking of which, Yang Wulang is also the leader of the team now. Lord Li, the legitimate son of Duke Ling, has many talented people under his command. "
After hearing this, Li Hao's mind was racing, wondering what Cao Jingxiu meant when he suddenly said this.
While his mind was spinning, he did not hesitate to reply: "This is also the grace of the official family. The official family asked me to hold a competition, and all the winners joined in.
Speaking of which, after returning to Beijing, I was still thinking about organizing the competition, but unfortunately I have been busy and have no time. "
Cao Jingxiu said: "Yes, I also heard about that competition, and there were quite a few talents."
After skipping this topic, Cao Jingxiu suddenly asked: "I heard that you had a close relationship with Commander Rong a few days ago. I wonder what you think about Commander Rong appointing this person as an official."
When Li Hao heard this, he was sure that Cao Jingxiu had something to say, and since he and Rong Xian were drinking in Fanlou, it was impossible for the Imperial City Division not to know the news.
So he said frankly: "We can't really talk about being close, we just had a few drinks together.
As for evaluation, I really can't talk about it, but the lower official also admires Rong's ability to command. "
….
After Li Hao finished speaking, he thought about it. He only talked about his ability, not his position as a person. If Cao Jingxiu really did what he thought, he should be able to understand what he meant.
Sure enough, after listening to Li Hao's words, Cao Jingxiu took a good look at Li Hao and said, "Yes, he is indeed capable."
Cao Jingxiu didn't speak for a while, and the two of them arrived at Wansheng Gate in silence.
Although people were not allowed to enter or exit the city gate at this time, it could also be seen that the city guards were checking much more carefully than before.
When an army approached the city gate, the city gate guard sent someone early to inquire about the situation.
However, after Cao Jingxiu went up to report with his military talisman, the guard general ordered people to get out of the way and invited the army to enter the city.
After entering the city, Cao Jingxiu took people directly to the Imperial City Department
The Yamen asked people to arrange the imperial camp.
At the same time, he took Li Hao to Ouyang Xiu to discuss how to maintain public security in Bianjing.
So Li Hao handed over the matter to Yang Wenyuan before leaving with Cao Jingxiu.
When he arrived at Kaifeng Mansion and saw Ouyang Xiu, Li Hao found that Ouyang Xiu looked much tired this time.
However, Ouyang Xiu was quite happy when he saw Cao Jingxiu bringing someone over, and the person he brought was Li Hao.
After seeing the ceremony, everyone sat down, and Cao Jingxiu said: "A few days ago, Academician Ouyang said that there was a shortage of manpower, and he was afraid that there were criminal activities in Bianjing City.
I then went to the western suburbs camp and brought back the imperial camp troops. I thought that with their participation, Bianjing City should be able to calm down. "
Ouyang Xiu replied: "That's natural. With the imperial army here, it will definitely suppress some people's evil intentions. I have to thank Cao Tiju for his help in this matter."
Cao Jingxiu said quickly: "No, this is also the responsibility of the Imperial City Department, but I have other things to be busy with, so I will let Mr. Li directly communicate with Academician Ouyang in detail.
It just so happens that the two of you are familiar with each other and have worked together before. If you want to work together again this time, you will definitely be more comfortable. "
Ouyang Xiu didn't say anything when he heard this, but Li Hao always felt that this man meant something. He deliberately asked about Rong Xian on the way here, and Li Hao felt something was wrong.
However, when Shangguan speaks, he has to answer: "Xiaoguan must try his best to cooperate with Lord Ouyang and not let Lord Tiji down."
After hearing this, Cao Jingxiu said: "Then you can discuss the next thing. I will go back first."
After saying that, he stood up and left. Li Hao and Ouyang Xiu sent him out of Kaifeng Mansion together.
After returning, Li Hao first asked Ouyang Xiu: "Uncle, how is the situation in Bianjing now? Has the official's health improved?
Since the western suburbs camp was sealed, I haven't heard any news at all. "
After hearing this, Ouyang Xiu said: "Don't worry, Guan Jia's health has improved recently. As long as he can recuperate for a few days, he will be fine.
As for Bianjing City, they are nothing more than some robbers and thieves who want to take this opportunity to do some shameful things.
Now that the official's health is getting better, they don't have to worry about it. They only asked you to come because they don't have enough manpower.
Now that you are here, you can sweep them all away. "
After listening to Ouyang Xiu's words, Li Hao was relieved. At least in terms of the big plot, it seemed that nothing had changed, so he still had a big advantage.
….
But thinking about what Cao Jingxiu said today, and it happened that he and Ouyang Xiu were alone now, Li Hao asked Ouyang Xiu: "What does uncle know about this uncle Cao Guo?"
Upon hearing this, Ouyang Xiu asked, "What's wrong? Is there anything wrong with Cao Jingxiu?"
Li Hao said: "It's not a problem. I have only dealt with this uncle Guo twice. I didn't think I would have to meet him, and I didn't get to know him.
Nowadays, those who want to get along with him day and night must know more so as not to violate his taboos. "
Upon hearing this, Ouyang Xiu said, "Don't worry, Cao Jingxiu is not a difficult person to get along with.
Although he was born into a noble family and had a sister who was a queen, he had always been kind to others and had never bullied others.
Therefore, even though he is in charge of the Imperial City Division, his popularity in the court is not bad. "
Hearing this, Li Hao had another question: "Actually, I'm curious about this. Since the official family let the queen's brother be in charge of the Imperial City Division, and later let Concubine Rong's brother be in charge of the Imperial Guard, There must be some checks and balances.
So did the two of them have any conflicts over this matter?
Ouyang Xiu asked: "Did you hear something from somewhere?"
Li Hao quickly replied: "It's nothing, it's just that on the way back, Cao Jingxiu deliberately brought the topic to Rong Xian.
My uncle also knows that Gu Tingye is leading people in the palace now. I am a little worried about Cao Jingxiu, fearing that he wants to use this to make some fuss. "
After hearing this, Ouyang Xiu understood Li Hao's concerns and said, "I have never heard of any conflict between the two of them.
Moreover, neither the Queen nor Concubine Rong have any heirs, and I have never heard that the Cao family or the Rong family had any relationship with any vassal king. Are you overthinking this? "
After hearing this, a thought floated through Li Hao's head. Originally, Li Hao had never thought that Queen Cao and King Yong would collude.
But now that I think about it, it's not impossible for this to happen. Look at the queen's reaction on the day Duke Qi was kidnapped by King Yong.
After learning the specific direction of the official family, the Cao family will support King Yong for the sake of future power. This is definitely possible.
And if this is true, then Cao Jingxiu's words today are very meaningful.
However, Li Hao did not plan to talk to Ouyang Xiu about this matter for the time being. After all, it involved the queen, the concubine, and the two vassal kings, so it might not be a good thing for Ouyang Xiu to intervene.
Moreover, Li Hao was still thinking about whether he could take this opportunity to add some chips to himself, such as placing Gu Tingye directly in the palace to bury a chess piece for himself.
After thinking about this quickly, Li Hao replied: "Maybe I think too much.
Come back and tell me what my uncle wants me to do next. "
Speaking of this, Ouyang Xiu called Judge Cai and asked Judge Cai to introduce to Li Hao in detail the groups of people who are currently causing trouble.
Later, he also learned from Cao Jingxiu and asked Judge Cai and Li Hao to discuss what to do, while he left.
After Ouyang Xiu left, Judge Cai asked, "Does Mr. Li have any ideas about what will happen next?"
Li Hao replied: "I just returned to Bianjing and I don't know much about these things. I'll leave it to you, Judge Cai. I'm only responsible for helping arrest people."
….
"Okay, if that's the case, then I'll take over as your substitute." Judge Cai then revealed his plan.
Because the traces of these people are under the control of Kaifeng Mansion, and these people are well-informed, in order to prevent anyone from receiving the news and escaping.
Therefore, it was decided to divide the imperial army into several teams and capture everyone at the same time within one day.
Li Hao had no objection to this, so he said: "Then I will bring all the generals and colonels leading the team tomorrow, and then I will ask Judge Cai to assign tasks directly."
After settling the matter, Li Hao left Kaifeng Mansion.
It's just that this is still a critical moment, and he has come back with a mission, so he can only imitate Dayu and stay away from home.
He went straight back to the Imperial City Department and reported the matter to Cao Jingxiu. Of course, Li Hao planned to brush his loyalty by the way.
If Cao Jingxiu and Rong Xian were really at odds with each other, he might be able to take advantage of it.
As for Cao Jingxiu, after listening to Li Hao's report, he said: "You don't need to ask me about this later. You can just do it. I can't believe you on this matter."
After hearing this, Li Hao replied: "I would like to thank you for your trust, but after all, we are going to use troops in Bianjing City, so I have to inform you anyway so that we can send troops."
Cao Jingxiu said: "You are just too polite. Didn't I say that you should assist Bachelor Ouyang in handling this matter?
Bachelor Ouyang has always been on good terms with you, and I think he will help you handle it in the future. "
Li Hao replied: "Sir Ouyang is familiar with the lower official, but the person who promoted the master is the lower official's Shangxian. The lower official still remembers it."
When Cao Jingxiu heard Li Hao's words, he came over with a smile on his face, patted Li Hao's shoulder and said, "Very good, just do what you just said."
After receiving the order, Li Hao retreated.
The next day, Li Hao took a group of his subordinates to Kaifeng Mansion to discuss matters. After that, Li Hao would report the daily situation to Cao Jingxiu as soon as possible.
But every time Cao Jingxiu listened, he looked indifferent, and then told Li Hao that it was too hard for him to report all day long.
Dan Li
Hao understood that although Cao Jingxiu said so, he was afraid that he was not satisfied with it.
Especially from Cao Jingxiu's behavior, when Li Hao came, Cao Jingxiu always sat firmly in the hall. When Li Hao came later, Cao Jingxiu evolved from standing up to greet him to walking to the door to greet him.
Anyway, later on, Cao Jingxiu's attitude towards Li Hao became extremely good.
As for dealing with the group of thieves in Bianjing, it went very smoothly. Under the guidance of Kaifeng Mansion, several large dens of thieves were eliminated on the first day, and then they assisted in mopping up some fleeing bandits. The matter was resolved quickly.
However, because the official's health was not yet well, no one was released from the camp in the western suburbs.
Naturally, Li Hao could only restrain everyone. In addition to doing ordinary things, they all had to stay in the Imperial City Division.
It was not until half a month later that the official was in good health and resumed the morning court, and recalled Ningyuan Hou and Ling Guogong back to Bianjing.
Only then could Li Hao return to normal. After that, Li Hao still planned to take people back to the western suburbs camp first, and then let everyone take leave.
….
Before leaving, Li Hao went to report to Cao Jingxiu again. By the way, he tried to see what arrangements Gu Tingye would make before leaving.
When Li Hao walked into the main door, Cao Jingxiu had already greeted him and pulled Li Hao to sit on a chair.
After sitting down, Li Hao said: "I came to see you today just to ask for instructions. Now that the ban has been lifted at the western suburbs camp, we should go back to the camp to avoid causing trouble to you.
In addition, I have one more thing to ask Mr. Tiju, which is about Gu Tingye.
They were originally transferred to the palace for the Qianyuan Festival. Now, I don't know how you plan to arrange this situation. "
After hearing this, Cao Jingxiu said, "I haven't thought about this yet. I wonder what your opinion is."
Li Hao said: "This matter involves the defense of the palace, and it is also the jurisdiction of Rong. How can I have any opinions? Everything is at your discretion."
After hearing Li Hao's words, Cao Jingxiu didn't say anything on the spot, but Li Hao understood that Cao Jingxiu had already moved his mind.
However, Cao Jingxiu reacted quickly and said, "There is no rush in advance. The officials must make the final decision regarding the deployment of manpower in the palace.
You go back to camp first and have a good rest. I will tell you the results after I ask the officials for instructions. "
Li Hao was quite satisfied with Cao Jingxiu's words. Anyway, now that Cao Jingxiu had changed his mind, no matter what he did later, at least Li Hao would not lose money and would get some benefits.
So after saying goodbye to Cao Jingxiu, Li Hao returned to the camp with his troops. After settling everyone down, he gave them a holiday and rushed back to Bianjing.
So more than a month later, Li Hao returned home again.
However, as soon as Li Hao entered the house, he was told a big news by Mrs. Wei.
The world of film and television begins with whether you know it or not.
