The rebellion of the Duke of Kui had finally come to an end.
Li Zhi had also received Li Shiming's order to handle this incident, including the punishment of the participants.
In the end, the 100,000-strong army of the Inner Pass, with the exception of a few trusted aides of the Duke of Kui, were all acquitted by Li Zhi.
In fact, as long as they were above the rank of lieutenant, even if they were not beheaded, they would basically be dismissed from office.
What Li Zhi wanted was the 100,000 soldiers. They were just ordinary soldiers who listened to the orders of their superiors. After a small punishment, they would still be elites of the Great Tang.
Li Zhi was in Jingyang City dealing with the rebellion, but he did not forget Liu Xin 'er and Liu Zhenghai who were still in Guangyu County.
Following Liu Xin `er, Li Zhi could be considered to have a life-and-death friendship. After all, the two of them escaped together and lived together in the dilapidated temple.
Therefore, in Li Zhi's heart, Liu Xin Er was already his.
However, because he had received orders from his father to deal with the follow-up matters of this rebellion, he could not personally pick them up.
At that moment, Li Zhi could only ask someone to go.
"State Duke Lu, this is how things are. The situation has yet to truly stabilize, and Gucheng is unwilling to leave my side. Therefore, I can only ask you to make a trip. After all, I'm worried about others.”
Li Zhi said so. After all, he was going to pick up his woman and ensure her safety. Li Zhi really couldn't trust ordinary people.
"Hahaha, don't worry, Your Highness. This old man loves running errands the most.”
Cheng Yaojin agreed with a smile, but he was indeed the person who liked to run errands the most. Even Li Shimin liked to let him run errands. If Li Zhi remembered correctly, Liaodong would rebel in the next few years.
After that, his father would dream of Xue Rengui from Yingmeng County. And looking for Xue Rengui was Cheng Yaojin's errand boy.
Xue Rengui was indeed a talent. Whether it was in official history or in allusions, it was the same.
However, when he needed to be born, he would naturally be born. Li Zhi wasn't in a hurry to search for him now. Otherwise, if he found Xue Rengui before he had fully matured, it would probably be a huge loss.
With Li Zhi's order, Chen Yaojin immediately led 1,000 black-armored cavalry towards Guangyu County.
This was because the Spiritual State was basically the territory of Duke Kui. Therefore, there were problems with the local governments. Therefore, Li Zhi was worried that Liu Xin 'er and Liu Zhenghai would be in danger.
That was why Chen Yaojin led the black-armored cavalry to Guangyu County.
...........
"Is this Guang Yu County?"
Outside Guangyu County, Chen Yaojin asked a soldier from the Living Spirit State beside him.
"Reporting to State Duke Lu, this is Guangyu County.”
Chen Yaojin nodded his head. He was a shrewd person. Seeing how much Li Zhi cared about Liu Xin `er, he knew that she would probably be Li Zhi's favorite concubine in the future.
Although Li Zhi had yet to ascend the throne, these old brothers of Li Shiming knew that Li Shiming's health was deteriorating day by day.
If he said something outrageous, Li Shimin might not have many years left to live.
Looking at Li Zhi's current performance, it was already a certainty that he would ascend the throne and become emperor.
Especially on the battlefield this time, Li Zhi's favorable impression of the 100,000 troops of the Inner Pass Road's Zhechong Mansion had exploded. Because of Li Zhi's plea, Li Shimin was lenient and spared them from the crime of rebellion.
With a simple move, he could actually obtain the support of a 100,000-strong army in the Land of One Dao.
Li Zhi, who in the Tang Imperial Court would dare to underestimate this fifteen-year-old Crown Prince?
Therefore, Li Zhi's position as Crown Prince was basically stable.
Therefore, this Liu Xin `er would definitely be the Emperor's favorite concubine in the future! Even if she didn't become the empress, it was still necessary for her to gain some favor in advance.
Cheng Yaojin might look like a burly man, but in fact, he was a man with a fine heart. He was one of the twenty-four meritorious officials of the Lingyan Pavilion, and he lived a happy life.
If he could gain the favor of the future emperor's favorite concubine, at least he could guarantee that their Cheng family would not be too desolate after his death.
"I am Guang Yu County Magistrate. Greetings, Duke Lu.”
At this moment, dozens of Guangyu County officials had already gathered in front of the city gate. Don't think that one county government official would be enough.
In fact, even in the county government in remote places, there were more than ten small officials who could be brought out.
Not to mention that this was a big county in the Inner Pass.
"Yes, Old Cheng, I'm here to pick someone up. There's no need to be so polite!”
After saying that, Cheng Yaojin ignored these officials who were trying to get close to him and directly led a thousand black-armored cavalrymen into the city.
Looking at the black-armored cavalrymen that had left, this group of officials was trembling in fear! They already knew about Duke Kui's rebellion. Although they didn't participate, they knew about the changes in the Spiritual State over the years.
Knowing but not reporting it was a sin.
That was why they wanted to curry favor with Cheng Yaojin just now. They didn't expect Cheng Yaojin to ignore them.
"Let's go, follow State Duke Lu and the others."
A group of officials quickly climbed up and followed behind Cheng Yaojin to see which noble he was going to pick up.
