Datang's strongest super god army

Chapter 1741 The Truth
Chapter 1741 The Truth
Facing Li Zhi's urgent eyes, Zheng Ang didn't panic, but nodded heavily, expressing that what he said was true.

The truth is the same, he didn't lie, and Li Zhi also knew that Zheng Ang's future is limitless, and his career in the future will skyrocket, so there is no need to use this method to add some glory to himself.

"This is what I saw and heard along the road. For this reason, I even went around a long way to observe and confirmed this matter."

"In this regard, I dare not hide the truth."

Zheng Ang said seriously, anyway, he just wants to have a clear conscience in his heart. If the emperor's uncle can't do it, he can't help it.

Now he desperately wants to go home to spend time with his wife and children. If it wasn't for the sense of responsibility in his heart that drove him to report, he would probably still be with Xi girl now.

Li Zhi looked directly at him, and after a while, turned his head away.

Judging from his experience, Zheng Ang didn't lie. Firstly, he didn't need to lie. Secondly, this matter had little to do with Zheng Ang. At most, it was an addition to Zheng Ang's resume. It doesn't really play a big role.

Li Zhi also didn't want to think in a dark direction, but the brochure submitted by Zheng Ang was too terrifying, involving several states and counties in the northwest of the Tang Dynasty, and the officials involved were only at the level of governors, accounting for nearly one-third of the northwest It's hard to imagine how horrible this is.

The key point is that Li Zhi turned his gaze to the memorial on the desk behind him, and what was presented on it was Zheng Ang's behavior along the way, but it was slightly different from Zheng Ang's description.

In terms of family affection, Zheng Ang is his niece and son-in-law, and he can't let go of this. The reason is that he loves girl Xi the most in Chen Qiao's family, even Brother Han.

Sighing, Li Zhi felt that things were getting tricky.

He did believe what Zheng Ang said, but not yet 100%. This is the attitude an emperor should have.

No matter how convincing the facts are, he cannot face them with a one-shot attitude. What he should pursue is not any reason, but the maximization of the interests of the entire Datang Empire.

However, judging from the current situation, it seems that those frontier officials in the northwest border have been challenging his bottom line.

Li Zhi is also thinking about whether to send Jiedu envoys.

However, considering the pros and cons of the matter, and the constraints of Jiedushi's official position, he still gave up this plan.

He casually patted the brochure on his hand, he still had no way to deal with those old fritters.

The several big families in the northwest not only have extremely high prestige and influence in the entire northwest border, but also have inextricable relationships with the several big families in Chang'an, which makes Li Zhi a headache.

As soon as the foreign troubles were over, the internal troubles came again.

Originally, natural disasters gave Li Zhi some headaches, but now there are man-made disasters, which made Li Zhi think that God couldn't stand it anymore, and he was not suitable to lead the Tang Dynasty as an emperor.

"How can this jar of stagnant water be muddied?"

Li Zhi said unconsciously.

Suddenly, Li Zhi reacted.

He ignored the kid Zheng Ang again, and as soon as he came back to his senses, Li Zhi nodded kindly at Zheng Ang and said:
"You kid has made a great contribution this time."

After pondering for a moment, Li Zhi said again:

"Great work is merit, and demerit is demerit. Those who have merit will be rewarded, and those who have demerit will be punished. This is my consistent rule."

"You violated the military order that day and handled things according to the military law, but today you have made great achievements, and I should reward you."

"Tell me, what do you want?"

Zheng Ang hesitated to speak, glanced at Li Zhi, and found that the other party's face was still not good-looking, so he said no sincerely.

"This is the duty of the humble minister, how dare you ask for a reward."

Li Zhi nodded in satisfaction. It would be good if he didn't punish him. If this kid dared to ask for a reward, he, as an uncle, would definitely "satisfy" him.

This kid is sensible.

At most, when the Black Dragon Army came back, say good things to him, so that he can suffer less.

But he didn't even look at who his father-in-law was. He was Chen Qiao, a well-known lunatic who defended his short-term interests. It was estimated that at most he would be punished by the official position, and nothing serious would happen.

Besides, even if Chen Qiao had the heart to punish him, it would still be because of girl Xi.

That little girl burst into tears and acted coquettishly to Chen Qiao, so Chen Qiao lost all anger.

Even if Zheng Ang did violate the military order, under Chen Qiao's control, what else could happen to him?
No matter what, Zheng Ang would not want Li Zhi's reward, but he didn't know that Li Zhi didn't want to give him the reward either.

In fact, from a long-term perspective, the brochure submitted by Zheng Ang is extremely useful. It can indeed catch many people, and it can also weaken the power of the Western Family and the bureaucratic group as much as possible.

However, it is useless at this stage, because Li Zhi doesn't have the mind to deal with it yet.

Now is the time when Datang is prosperous, and Datang is constantly improving. Although there is no turmoil in the situation, it is not necessarily unfavorable turmoil, and there are also good aspects. The prosperity of the world is based on some sacrifices.

Li Zhi is very clear, so governing a big country is like cooking small fish, like cutting meat with a blunt knife.

Now Li Zhi was afraid that his steps would be too big, so he didn't dare to make any big moves until Chen Qiao came back with the Black Dragon Army.

The new emperor needs to be so careful when he takes the throne. He also knows that most of the guards under him, such as the imperial army and the imperial forest army, are the new rich children of Chang'an, and there are really few good families.

He wasn't sure how many of them were the eyeliners of those aristocratic families, so he didn't dare to make a big move, for fear that he would indeed step on the opponent's restricted area.

Thinking of this, Li Zhi felt aggrieved. Although he wanted to change the situation, he was not in a hurry.

He just needs to be sure that the Black Dragon Army has nothing to do with those great families, and as long as Chen Qiao brings the Black Dragon Army back, then he will be able to control the overall situation.

Most of the soldiers of the Black Dragon Army are not the sons of rich and noble families, either they can't survive, or they yearn for the Black Dragon Army. The qualifications for entry are so strict. How could Chen Qiao, who hates the aristocratic family, allow the other party to put people in?
When the Black Dragon Army came back, it was time for him to turn things around.

Even if it was another emperor, he wouldn't be so stubborn, but who called him Li Zhi? He was known for being cowardly since he was a child, and his character was really not very decisive, so he could bear it.

He has been used to tolerance since he was a child, what else can he do?Now only the Black Dragon Army can be trusted by him.
