Chapter 867 Cooperation
A month ago, Li Junyi was suddenly transferred to the Ministry of War and served as a Deputy Director.
This transfer order made the gloomy Li family overjoyed, and Li Junyi even went to Sheng Zhan with tears in his eyes to express his gratitude.
Originally, he was not allowed to meet Sheng Zhan at will because of his rank, but after his transfer order came down, he was summoned by Sheng Zhan.
"I thank the emperor for his support. In the future, I will do my best to serve the emperor and will never let the emperor down!" Li Junyi kowtowed and knelt.
Sheng Zhan was very satisfied with his performance. He waited for a moment before speaking, "Mr. Li, please stand up. There is no need for this between the monarch and his subjects."
The sound of Li Junyi's kowtow just now could probably be heard outside the hall.
Li Junyi stood up dizzy. He had indeed knocked his head a little hard, but he was really excited!
Ever since Li Junxin and his family secretly moved away, the main branch of the Li family has been severely damaged. A few days ago, he once again ordered the family to tighten their belts.
Unexpectedly, the emperor transferred him to the Ministry of War at this time!
Although the Ministry of War does not have the same real power as the Ministry of Personnel, it is still completely possible to make some money.
Li Junyi was still thinking about getting some benefits in the Ministry of War the moment before he heard Sheng Zhan say, "Mr. Li, I recently agreed with the Jun people to jointly attack northern Hubei. Now that the Jun people are about to attack northern Hubei, we should also prepare."
"Ah," Li Junyi was a little confused, "Isn't northern Hubei our Dajin territory?"
Not only is it the place of Dajin, but also there are 100,000 Hubei troops stationed there by General Liang Cheng, the Great General of Zhenbei. Why would the emperor unite with the Jun people to attack Hubei?
Sheng Zhan's face turned cold, and he spoke with great authority, "Does Li Qing think that the Liang Cheng of today is still the Liang Cheng of the past? Ezhou has not paid any taxes to the court this year. Besides urging me to supply food and fodder, has Liang Cheng ever shared the slightest worry for me?"
"What the emperor means is..." Li Junyi was a little at a loss and even stuttered when he spoke.
Most of the civil and military officials in the court highly respected Liang Cheng. After all, he had been guarding northern Hubei for many years and had been preventing the barbarians outside the Great Wall from moving south. It can be said that if it were not for Liang Cheng, the capital of the Great Jin would not have the peace and prosperity it has today.
But at this moment, the emperor said this
Sheng Zhan snorted coldly, "Liang Cheng has long harbored rebellious intentions! Now, taking advantage of the fact that Prince Zhao is spreading rumors about the emperor's brother's presence in northern Hubei, Liang Cheng is trying to sever Ezhou from the territory of the Great Jin! I will never allow this!"
Li Junyi suddenly realized what was going on. His eyes rolled, and he immediately said indignantly: "This is simply outrageous! How could a traitor like Liang Cheng do such a treasonous thing?"
He immediately knelt down and said loudly, "Your Majesty, I beg the court to send troops to punish the traitor Liang Cheng!"
No matter what the court's current situation is, no matter whether the court can fight a war, if he doesn't take this opportunity to show his face in front of the emperor, the capital will never see the direct descendants of the Li family again!
Sheng Zhan was very satisfied with his attitude and nodded, "Li Qing, please get up quickly. I called you here today to discuss this matter."
It was because of the summons a month ago that Li Junyi was now tied up and brought before the Khan of the Jun tribe.
"Great Khan, the Emperor is sincerely cooperating with you! Otherwise, he wouldn't have sent me to see you. If you don't believe me, you can look at the seal of the Ministry of War on me. We are indeed from the Ministry of War of the Great Jin Dynasty!"
Li Junyi shouted loudly.
