Chapter 147: Trivia is disturbing
What worries Qin Jin is that in addition to Wei Jiansu, Ge Shuhan, Gao Xianzhi, Yang Guozhong, and Li Heng are even more of each other, and it is difficult to be prosperous, especially the contradictions between Ge Shuhan and Yang Guozhong, Ge Shuhan and Gao Xianzhi are the most prominent.
Once the political dispute continues to deteriorate, what serious business can the political affairs hall do? It may only be left to dump and fight with each other.
"The political hall is upside down, let you worry about it, let's only do the few things in front of us well, even if it is done. ”
Regarding Qin Jin's concern about the political dispute in the court, Zheng Xianli obviously also has his own opinions.
Qin Jin sighed: "It's the same." What is the progress of the crossbow workshop department's mass production of the 'Divine Arm Bow'?"
When it comes to the errand of the ordnance supervisor, Zheng Xianli's nature is obviously much higher.
"According to General Zhonglang's method, the progress is more than five times faster, and the five thousand divine arm bows can almost be completed in three or two months!"
"Very good, today, I will submit the regulations for the expansion of the Shenwu Army, as long as the Son of Heaven is satisfied, I can train 30,000 elites of the Tang Dynasty in half a year!"
30,000 elites! Qin Jin's plan made Zheng Xianli very excited, 30,000 elites and 100,000 more than 100,000 soldiers can be worth 200,000 heroes, and any festival envoy must take a look at the Shenwu army.
After noon, Qin Jin left the forbidden garden and rushed to the Daming Palace, but he couldn't see the Son of Heaven, and a small yellow door dragged him emphatically and told him that the Son of Heaven was uncertain, and he left the expression to be presented, and he could leave.
When Zhang Fuchen came to convey the edict the day before yesterday, he specially explained that there was an hour to spare after the noon of the sky, and this time passed, and there was just enough time to explain in detail the strategy for expanding the army.
Zhang Fuchen once went to Tongguan as the envoy of the Son of Heaven to escort Gao Xianzhi back to Chang'an, and after returning, Qin Jin saw him for the first time.
This kind-hearted servant of the Son of Heaven also sighed infinitely, "I can't imagine that when Dr. Gao came back, he was still a prisoner, but now he has become a minister in the political hall, it's really unpredictable!"
In fact, just like Zhang Fuchen himself, the world is also unpredictable, a month ago he was just an ordinary little yellow door, just because of an accident, he exchanged a few words with the Son of Heaven, and since then he has ascended to the sky and become one of the most favored eunuchs around the Son of Heaven.
Now, the Son of Heaven suddenly became uncertain and refused to meet him, and a bad premonition permeated Qin Jin's heart. In the past, Zhang Fuchen personally cooked when he entered the palace, but today he did not see Zhang Fuchen's shadow, which seemed to confirm this bad premonition.
The next day, Qin Jin's hunch was confirmed, and the Son of Heaven's approval was sent to the Shenwu Army garrison in the Forbidden Garden, and the plan to expand the army by 30,000 was rejected on the grounds of lack of food in Guanzhong, and only agreed that the Shenwu Army would maintain the size of 3,000 people on the original basis.
The implication is that the 3,000 people of the Shenwu Army can be tossed by Qin and Jin, and those rare military training methods in the world can also be used on this nascent Shenwu Army.
"What is this? It's not that the Son of Heaven doesn't know the emptiness in Guanzhong, can't he even take out the food of the 30,000 Tang Army? But he has the money to make those silverfish drunk and dreaming to death! When the mountains and rivers are broken and the country is ruined, see where they cry!"
Zheng Xianli was really angry, and even blurted out the big rebellious words that he rarely said in the past.
Qin Jin had to comfort Zheng Xianli instead.
"The lack of food is also a fact, if you have the opportunity to see the Son of Heaven, and then tell the pros and cons, maybe there will be a turnaround!"
Zheng Xianli sneered:
"How can Zhonglang General be so naïve? The mind of the Son of Heaven clearly shows that he doesn't trust Zhonglang General!"
Qin Jin sighed, how could he not know that when the Son of Heaven had regained it in just a few days, he had already realized that the Son of Heaven's attitude towards him might have changed subtly. However, unexpectedly, the change in the attitude of the Son of Heaven was directly confirmed by the expansion of the Shenwu Army.
In fact, as Zheng Xianli said, the Son of Heaven still trusts Chen Xuanli, who has been with him for more than 40 years. Li Cao also sent Chen Qianli's handwritten letter, which detailed the edict of the Son of Heaven to order Chen Qianli to organize and train a new army, and the size of the new army was 30,000.
Previously, Li Cao had misunderstood Qin Jin because of his original intention of rescuing Gao Xianzhi, and it was not until Qin Jin risked his life and admonished the Son of Heaven that he suddenly realized it, so after seeing Qin Jin this time, he also apologized for the offense on that day.
Looking at Li Cao, who was seriously bowed to the ground, Qin Jin couldn't help but wonder, he didn't take Li Cao's cynicism to heart, who these angry words were put on, with the scene at that time, I was afraid that they would explode like this.
In Qin Jin's opinion, Li Cao is a young man with a rather ancient style, but it is a pity that he only joined the army in Chen Xuanli's army, and he can only dispose of some paperwork on weekdays, and more time he only relies on hanging out and passing the time.
The two of them chatted about the wasted time in the army, and Li Cao couldn't help but sigh, once upon a time he had the world in mind, but now he wasted his good years in the chaos. Feeling this, Qin Jin also sincerely invited Li Cao to come
"Brother Li is interested in coming to the Shenwu Army?"
Li Cao sighed, "I can't ask for it!"
Chen Qianli attaches great importance to Chen Xuanli in the Shenwu Army, so it is not easy to transfer. Li Cao is different, he is just an idle member of the army, and if he wants to be transferred, it is just a matter of writing official documents.
"Brother Li is in what kind of affairs, you might as well talk about one or two!"
Li Cao thought about it for a while, and then said quite confidently: "If you talk about military affairs, as long as you don't go into battle, you can do all of them!"
In fact, with Qin Jin's understanding of Li Cao, this person is best at being a vertical and horizontal strategist, if he was born in the Warring States period, he must be a vertical and horizontal family like Su Qin and Zhang Yi. Let him only deal with 3,000 people in the Shenwu Army, which is actually overkill.
However, this is the case in the world, people with talents are often not reused, such as Li Linfu and Yang Guozhong, one is a villain who only knows power and scheming, and the other is a fool with a straw bag, but he can rely on his ability to stammer and nepotism.
Obviously not, to a large extent, the prime minister at this time is completely determined by the words of the Son of Heaven, and if the Son of Heaven likes this kind of person, what can he do?
If such a favored traitor was born in the Ming and Qing dynasties, because the two dynasties had a relatively complete restraint system, even if there were traitors in control of the dynasty, it would not cause the local army to rebel and cause a catastrophe of life and death.
"Tomorrow is the Shangyuan Festival, does Brother Li have any arrangements?"
Li Cao smiled bitterly, "My family is in Beizhou, Chang'an has no relatives and no reason, and I am only alone on the Shangyuan Festival!"
There was a hint of loneliness in his words, and then he smiled and said: "When the national disaster is at hand, how can you take care of the pleasures of the small family, but if you can exchange the world for peace and prosperity, it is the 60th Shangyuan Festival, what if you don't reunite with your family!"
Qin Jin couldn't help but high-five.
"Just for Brother Li's words, it should be a big deal!"
Li Cao said: "It's a pity that the military law in the Shenwu Army is strict, and drinking alcohol is punished!"
Qin Jin said in his heart, this Li Cao is really a person with a heart, and the Shenwu army has indeed been repeatedly broken because of the prohibition of alcohol, and several children of the family have been punished. If there are those who refuse to change their ways, he simply kicks them out of the Shenwu Army and never gives them a chance to change their ways.
Qin Jin handled this matter very low-key at the beginning, and not many people knew the inside story. Those children of the family who were driven out of the Shenwu Army did not dare to publicize it outside for fear of being embarrassed. And Li Cao can learn about this, one can see his concern for the Shenwu Army, and the other can also show that this person is not like he claims to be without relatives and no reason.
However, the festive atmosphere of the Shangyuan Festival was finally changed by an untimely news.
An Lushan founded the country and became the emperor!
Ge Shuhan sent back an urgent report from Tongguan, making it clear that the news from Luoyang that An Lushan will be established as the emperor in the near future, and the country name is Yan!
The ministers were in a complicated mood with different thoughts, waiting for the reaction from above, and Li Longji was the only one who really felt the humiliation and sense of crisis.
Before the Son of Heaven could react, there was a person who thought that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, Fan Changming found Bian Lingcheng and couldn't wait to be excited.
"General, now is a great opportunity, get rid of Qin Jindang in one move!"
The wound on Bian Lingcheng's buttocks had just scabbed, and the pain was less but the itching was unbearable, and he was upset, and he felt a little impatient when he saw Fan Changming's appearance.
"What a chance? An thief is called the emperor, the saint is now the moment when Long Yan is furious, whoever dares to go to trouble is looking for death!"
This Fan Changming only asked to see that he would inevitably mention revenge and mention Qin Jin when he opened his mouth and closed his mouth. At first, he was quite interested in discussing with him, but after many times, he found that the suggestions made by this person were either a lose-lose method or a rush to achieve results.
Bian Lingcheng said matter-of-factly: "Have you ever seen a hound bite its prey?"
Fan Changming was stunned by the question, and subconsciously shook his head and said, "No!"
"I don't think you have such knowledge! The hound dog bites its prey quickly, ruthlessly and accurately, and if it does not move, it will inevitably bite the throat of the prey. Like you, you are shouting and shouting at every turn, and you have already scared the prey away, so it's better to be patient and wait for the opportunity!"
"Wait?" Fan Changming seemed to have heard an extremely ridiculous joke.
"Now that the Son of Heaven is angry, even if it is something that catches the wind and shadows, as long as it is publicized, how do you know that the Son of Heaven will not be angry?"
Don't look at what Bian Lingcheng said in his mouth is the Tao, but in fact, he is afraid that he will miss a blow and be blamed by the Son of Heaven again, he just "falsely accused" Gao Xianzhi and planted a heel, do you want to plant a heel on Qin Jin's body again?
Bian Lingcheng is not stupid, so he will not be used as a knife by Fan Changming, and he took this guy in, so that he could stay as a hunting dog, not the other way around......
Fan Changming left Bian Lingcheng's mansion in Xinghuafang, and went to the area of Shengyefang, in order to grasp Qin Jin's handle, in the days when he came to Chang'an, he has been secretly observing Qin Jin's whereabouts, and remembering several places where he often moves.
Even if he can't be brought to justice, it's good for him to taste the loss of someone closest to him.
