However, it didn't matter if these two people came, Li Hao took advantage of the situation and handed over the custody of the prisoners to them. In addition, he also invited the old county magistrate Cheng from Hua County and asked him to send a few people to guide him and lead Hua County. The villages and towns around the county were inspected and the prisoners in the palace were brought back.
After all, although the rebels led by Fan Chang were defeated, there were still many who took advantage of the chaos and fled. If these people were not eliminated, they would inevitably cause trouble in the countryside.
It is said that being able to quell Fan Chang's rebellion so quickly was somewhat beyond Li Hao's expectation. It can only be said that under this disadvantage, Ling Buyi's way of leading the army from the vanguard is indeed more effective than Li Hao.
If Li Hao were to lead the army, even if they wanted to attract Fan Chang's attention, they would not confront each other on the plains so openly. Instead, they would find ways to use the terrain to maneuver around, which would definitely take more time.
And the most important thing is that if Li Hao was leading the troops on the front line, then Emperor Wen most likely would not have prepared so well in advance, and the reinforcements would not have arrived so quickly.
But no matter what, the incident has calmed down quickly without causing heavy casualties to the people. It can be considered a good thing, and the victory must be reported to Emperor Wen.
In addition, Fan Chang was the governor of Jianwei County. This time he led his troops to rebel. It is difficult to say that all the officials in Jianwei County were unaware.
Therefore, Li Hao had to lead his troops to Jianwei County to prevent anyone from losing their minds. However, Li Hao had no authority to deal with the officials in Jianwei County, and Emperor Wen still needed to make the decision.
However, when Li Hao arrived at Jianwei County, Wu Han had already arrived. Emperor Wen originally ordered him to stop the soldiers from Bajun and Guanghan County to help deal with Fan Chang.
As a result, Li Hao and Ling Buyi were too fast, and Fan Chang was defeated before Wu Han's troops could even be reorganized.
Naturally, there was no need to recruit more soldiers from the county, and Wu Han couldn't get involved when Ling Buyi was chasing Fan Chang, so he simply went to Jianwei County to find Li Hao and help Li Hao convince the local officials.
In fact, Wu Han did do this. After all, he was a Taiwei official and was a minister of Conglong who was particularly trusted by Emperor Wen. In addition, there was a precedent of mass killing Gongsun Shu's old ministers in Chengdu.
Whether it was the civil servants and generals sent by the imperial court or the old ministers of Gongsun Shu who had surrendered, they did not dare to provoke Wu Han, so An Sheng was the only one.
In this suppressed calm, Emperor Wen's Luan Jia finally arrived in Hua County, and Fan Chang was also captured by Ling Buyi.
After a preliminary review, it was confirmed that other officials in Jianwei County were kept in the dark by Fan Chang beforehand, so the punishment for them was not serious. At most, they were dismissed from office, and many were simply demoted and transferred to other places. went.
Only Fan Chang's family papers were all seized, and they were escorted back to Huihua County by Li Hao and handed over to Tingwei Ji Zun for disposal.
Seeing this scene, Li Hao originally thought that Emperor Wen was not soft-hearted this time. However, it was only after Li Hao returned to Hua County that he realized that Ling Buyi was still leading the matter.
After Emperor Wen read Fan Chang's confession letter written in blood, he still felt as soft-hearted as ever. However, Ling Buyi exposed Fan Chang's sinister intentions.
It is said that Fan Chang relied on his friendship with Emperor Wen, so he used it to survive. Otherwise, why would Fan Chang's family have always been in Jianwei County, not hiding, and not afraid of the imperial court's execution of his family after his rebellion against Emperor Wen failed. .
It is believed that Fan Chang was determined that the rebellion would succeed. When the world was in chaos, the court would have no time to investigate his crimes.
Fan Chang planned this move first, and his comrades assisted him later. But to this day, he only mentions his friendship as a comrade and is unwilling to reveal his comrades, so there is no way he can truly repent.
After some righteous words, Ji Zun directly agreed with this, and then Ling Buyi came forward to ask for orders to host the event.
Of course, Emperor Wen did not agree to this, because Ling Buyi was injured again after this battle, and Emperor Wen asked him to recuperate first.
Speaking of which, Ling Buyi didn't know what kind of constitution he had. Basically, he would be injured in every battle, but it was not serious.
At this point, Li Hao is really incomparable, because Li Hao fought in so many battles, but he was seriously injured only when he was assassinated in Hanzhong, and he really didn't suffer any other injuries.
Therefore, sometimes it is better to use your brain as much as possible when fighting. There is no need to use this kind of strength.
However, Ling Buyi and Li Hao had this experience of fighting side by side, and their friendship naturally deepened. For this reason, after Li Hao returned to Hua County, he explained the matter and came to visit Ling Buyi. .
I saw Ling Buyi sitting upright in the tent, holding a book and reading. It was obvious that he had been taught good etiquette, but he didn't look like he was injured.
"I heard that you were seriously injured this time. Why do you seem to be in good spirits now? It doesn't look like you were seriously injured." Ling Buyi put down the book after hearing this and replied: "Why, is it difficult? No, I have to lie on the bed and not move to be considered seriously injured. Or do you just want to see me lying on the bed with no serious injuries? If that's the case, I can't put on a suit. .”
"No, I just said it casually. It will be better if your injury is not serious. I happen to have special medicine for treating knife and ax injuries, which should make you recover faster. In addition, this The medicine is not only very effective, but it is also guaranteed to leave no scars on ordinary wounds. You can try it and if you are satisfied, I can give you more." After hearing this, Ling Buyu didn't have time to say anything. What? Liang Qiufei on the side asked: "Is it really possible to leave no scars? Is it so magical?"
"Of course. This medicine was developed by many doctors in my family and took several years. It also needs to add a lot of precious medicinal materials such as pearl powder and white wormwood. But this also requires that the wound should not be too big. You have to If you really inflict a wound that is several inches long, it will definitely be useless." Li Hao answered this confidently.
This also made everyone believe it, and Liang Qiufei immediately asked: "If it is an old injury, will applying this medicine still be useful?" The curiosity in this was beyond words, and Ling Buyi, who was sitting in the seat, was confused. He couldn't help but said: "A Fei..." Liang Qiufei glanced at Ling Buyi and quickly shut his mouth. This scene made Li Hao look funny.
But he still replied: "For existing scars, this medicine is not that effective, but if General Liang Qiu really cares, as long as it is rubbed for a long time, some small old scars can be healed a lot. .”
"That's right." Liang Qiufei was overjoyed when he heard this, and just as he was about to say something more, he was pulled away by Liang Qiuqi on the side.
Because Ling Buyi's face turned a little dark at this time. If Liang Qiufei stayed here any longer, Ling Buyi would probably have to punish Liang Qiufei with ten army sticks on the spot to let him know the consequences of talking too much.
After waiting for the two brothers to leave, Ling Buyi looked at Li Haode with a smile on his face and said angrily: "You came here today just to give me medicine. If so, put the medicine down and you can leave now. Seeing Ling Buyi's behavior, Li Hao also suppressed his smile and replied: "I came here today, firstly to visit the patient, and secondly because I have something to say about Fan Chang. This time I am in Qianwei County When we searched Fan Chang's house, we found some letters linking Fan Chang to King Yong. I didn't hand it over directly at that time. Do you know why?" He took out a stack of letters from his sleeve and put them down. On top of the table.
When Ling Buyi heard this, his expression changed slightly, and then immediately returned to normal, and asked: "Oh, I really can't think clearly about this. Could it be that your Yuan family doesn't want to offend King Yong for this matter, or maybe There is no evidence in this letter that King Yong violated the law." After hearing this, Li Hao replied: "How about you, Ling Buwei, who is smart? Indeed, these letters are just ordinary greetings, maybe there is something. It's a metaphor, but there is really no evidence that King Yong stole ordnance or participated in this rebellion. And the reason why I came to you today is to ask your opinion. After all, Fan Chang was interrogated by you after he was captured. Could it be that he just Nothing was revealed to you?”
"No, Fan Chang insisted during the interrogation that he was bewitched, but he didn't say a word about who it was. I have ordered people to escort him back to the capital. He will be interrogated strictly and his mouth will be opened. Yes." Ling Buyu said decisively.
Hearing what Ling Buyi said, Li Hao understood that he didn't fully believe in himself and didn't intend to get involved with King Yong.
Li Hao could understand this. After all, he carried the blood feud of the Huo family and was unwilling to reveal it to his loved ones, let alone Li Hao, an outsider.
In fact, Li Hao originally wanted to help him, such as directly obtaining evidence from the Chunyu family that Ling Yi and Peng Kun had colluded to let Emperor Ru's troops enter the isolated city.
But the problem is that Ling Yi has a guilty conscience and the Chengyang Marquis Mansion is very heavily guarded, so Li Hao really can't get in.
And now I don’t know if Chunyu has put any evidence of crime into the statue of Nuwa. Even if they really put people in, they may not be able to find it, so they can only give up for now.
Anyway, in the end, Li Hao left all these letters to Ling Buyi to see if he could use them to find some clues.
Then Li Hao was about to leave. At this time, Ling Buyi suddenly said: "By the way, now that you are back, you will be in charge of the East Palace Guards. I will be recuperating in Hua County for a while and will not go with Your Majesty." Chengdu, so some of the black-armored guards will stay. You can help take care of the other Yueqi school captains and black-armored guards during this period. Your Majesty will tell you the specific orders later." I heard this is what happened. , Li Hao immediately replied: "Okay, don't worry, I will take care of it for you." Before he had taken two steps, he heard Ling Buyi say again: "The other side is the prince's side, your majesty is here The prince was asked to handle some military affairs before, but the result was not satisfactory to His Majesty. I think you will have to pay more attention to this in the future, otherwise I am afraid it will not be a good thing for the prince to accompany you this time."
"Thank you Zicheng for reminding me. I will pay attention to it when I go back." Li Hao actually knew this all along. It would definitely not be easy for him to grow up quickly with his character as a prince.
From Li Hao's point of view, the root cause of the problem was that the prince was still not very confident. After all, compared to Emperor Wen, who was smart, wise, and courageous in dealing with things, the prince was indeed far behind.
And because he was in the position of prince, he was always compared with Emperor Wen. When encountering this kind of situation, most people will be divided into two types. One type is bold and resolute. They will get stronger when they are strong and constantly improve themselves to catch up with the opponent.
One is that after being compared, one loses all self-confidence, becomes even more inferior, and denies oneself even more, thus creating an unconscious escape mentality.
Although escaping is sometimes useful, it is definitely not appropriate to avoid everything. So Li Hao planned to cultivate the prince's self-confidence first. Since the prince's current ability cannot accomplish some big things, Li Hao would help him divide the big things into small ones and let him complete them step by step.
First, use this to cultivate the prince's self-confidence. As long as he has the courage to face difficulties proactively, the remaining methods of doing things will be easy to teach.
However, after Li Hao came out, he did not return to the prince immediately, but planned to find Yuan Shen first.
Because in Li Hao's impression, Yuan Shen should have stayed with Huangfuyi in Hua County this time, so Li Hao had to remind him to keep an eye on Cheng Shaoshang, and try to let him Have less contact with Ling Buyi.
Although Li Hao was in the middle to give instructions, it greatly changed Cheng Shaoshang's marriage line. After all, this time she ran all the way to Hua County without Lou Yao by her side.
He didn't let Ling Buyi heroically save the beauty and create a chance for the two of them to meet. But after all, we still have to be cautious. After all, the two families have not officially discussed the marriage. If there is some self-correction mechanism, it will be funny if these two people get together and something unexpected happens.
Just this search made Li Hao come up empty. Later, after asking people, Li Hao learned that Yuan Shen went to the Hua County County Government.
Li Hao couldn't help but feel happy that Yuan Shen finally knew how to take the initiative. If he had done this earlier, he might have booked the marriage in the capital earlier.
So he also set off for Hua County, intending to see if Yuan Shen had made any progress and whether he needed to be a wingman.
But when Li Hao arrived in Hua County, he discovered that Yuan Shen had taken the initiative, but there seemed to be some problems with his proactive approach.
I don't want you to be polite and considerate, but you don't have to speak in a bickering way. Just like a child, deliberately doing bad things and saying some angry words to attract the attention of the girl you like. It's really pure. A dead duck has a tough mouth.
For such a person, Li Hao really didn't know how to be a wingman and was really helpless. Fortunately, Cheng Zhi and his wife were normal people. When they saw Li Hao arriving, they invited Li Hao into the room to talk.
When Yuan Shen and Cheng Shaoshang saw this, they stopped arguing and went back to the house to sit down together. Cheng Zhi asked: "Zi Yang came here today, but do you have anything to say?" Li Hao replied: "I came today to congratulate Mr. Cheng. Now the old county magistrate Cheng has been promoted to Qianwei by your majesty for his role in defending the city. As the prefect of the county, you have also been entrusted by His Majesty with the position of acting county magistrate. As long as nothing goes wrong in the future, I think you will be the next magistrate of Hua County."
"No, I have to thank Ziyang. If you hadn't spoken kindly for me in the memorial, I'm afraid I wouldn't have had this opportunity." What Cheng Zhi said was true, but it was incomplete, because he couldn't help but speak kindly to him. Li Hao alone, the county magistrate Cheng and his senior brother Gongsun all expressed Cheng Zhi's contribution in memorials.
There was no way, since one of them regarded him as his nephew and the other as his brother, they naturally wanted to help him get credit.
As for Li Hao, there is an elder brother who is trying to take advantage of his niece, so he must help him.
