Chapter 975: One Man and the World
Miao Jinqing was no longer hopeful about his future, but the sudden details made him unbelievable for a while. After sending Qin Ji away, he began to ponder the person Qin Jin carefully, before that, Qin Jin was just an ambitious and powerful general, but this person was different from the powerful general in his impression, which also aroused his great interest, and he couldn't wait to see Qin Jin in person.
Early the next morning, a military official came to call the door and sent an invitation from Qin Jin, which was a solemn invitation. Originally, he planned to ask for a meeting after Qin Ji probed the wind, and even if he was guilty of asking for it, he was completely prepared for this. Unexpectedly, Qin Jin didn't have the slightest shelf, not only did he ignore his previous suspicions, but he also gave enough face and personally sent someone to invite him.
The time of the meeting was set for an hour later, although it was in a hurry, Miao Jinqing had already made preparations, simply packed up, put on the scarlet officials' regular clothes, and followed the military officials to the military marshal hall of the Shenwu Army in the north of the city in the Danfeng Gate.
When he saw Qin Jin, Qin Jin was at the desk disposing of the official documents, and the left and right sides of the official case were already piled up like a mountain of documents, and when he heard the footsteps, he raised his head, smiled apologetically at Miao Jinqing, threw down the brush in his hand, and got up to greet him.
"Why didn't anyone come in to pass through? Qin Jin was late to greet him, and asked Miao Shilang not to blame!"
Miao Jinqing was also very polite in returning the courtesy, he had fantasized countless times about meeting this powerful general, but none of them had such a result as now. The person who was rude and rude in his original impression is now a polite young man, but this young man's eyes are full of scorching light.
Qin Jin is too young, it seems that he is not even thirty years old, a person can reach such a state before he stands, there is no rarity in ancient and modern China and abroad, if it is not a genius of the heavens, maybe it is the protection of heaven in the underworld!
"In addition to recommending himself to Doctor Qin, the subordinates are here to ask Doctor Qin for their guilt!"
Qin Jin smiled and said:
"Miao Shilang is extraordinary, this is also the purpose of Qin's invitation to meet, but the saying of inviting guilt is a little inexplicable, and I don't want to mention it again!"
Miao Jinqing said seriously:
"No, these words must be said in the front, otherwise the subordinates will be uneasy, the conspiracy was in the dark room at that time, unscrupulous means, too, it is also a last resort......"
After hesitating for a while, he told himself and Cui Yuan's plan as it was, so honest, it was unexpected by Qin Jin, but it was also an unexpected gain, which was enough to see Miao Jinqing's character.
As for those dirty methods of Yin in the dark room, Qin Jin didn't care about it originally, as long as it didn't cause substantial harm, there was nothing unforgivable.
Since Miao Jinqing took the initiative to mention the plans to persecute him, Qin Jin naturally could no longer cover up this topic, but avoided the important and lightly talked about his countermeasures at that time.
caused the Son of Heaven to be in danger, if it weren't for Pei Jing being ordered to pass north, maybe the Son of Heaven would have become rotten flesh and rotten bones on the boundary of Yanzhou at this time.
Miao Jinqing took the initiative to recommend himself to Qin Jin after thinking through everything, as for the slightly pedantic ideas in the past, they have been gradually left behind, for the sake of all the people in the world, maybe what he does now is also a good choice.
However, although Miao Jinqing knew that Qin Jin would give him a place to play, he couldn't imagine that the burden that was about to fall on his shoulders was beyond imagination.
Qin Jin has never been accustomed to gossip, and whenever he discusses military affairs with others, he goes straight to the point.
"Qin Ji should have revealed something to Miao Shilang yesterday, the northwest is the time when there is a shortage of people, and the imperial court is also stretched thin now......
Miao Jinqing was stunned for a moment, and immediately remembered what Qin Ji had said, after the Shenwu Army recovered Lingwu, someone needed to settle down the place, could it be that he was asked to be a county guard? But after thinking about it, I felt that I couldn't let him be a festival envoy, after all, his qualifications in the army were far from enough. Even if you bite the bullet to make a festival, I'm afraid it's a bit like catching ducks on the shelves.
He looked at Qin Jin's slightly pensive eyes, his heart went up and down, and he couldn't guess the true thoughts of this young minister for a while.
Soon, Miao Jinqing was relieved again, since it was better not to guess if he couldn't guess, Qin Jin invited himself so politely, he must have already made a suitable arrangement, it was better to wait quietly for him to reveal the mystery.
"Since the fight against the Tibetan disaster, Longyou and Shuofang have not been peaceful, and there have not been many military disasters, but there are gradually more displaced people, and the local people are also struggling to make a living. ”
Qin Jin seemed to be organizing the language, and he actually said a few ambiguous words when he wanted to speak, which made Miao Jinqing feel even more strange, he carefully analyzed what Qin Jin had just said, and finally came up with an answer that surprised him.
If what Qin Jin said is true, then is it necessary to hand over the civil and financial power of one of Longyou and Shuofang to himself? If he can have such great power, I am afraid that he will not even be able to dispose of the envoy, is it really a temperance envoy?
The most popular thing in the officialdom of the Tang Dynasty is to enter and exit the generals, once out of the town, it is only one step away from entering the political hall as the prime minister. On the contrary, once he becomes prime minister, he may become the commander-in-chief of the three armed forces at any time. This kind of example is not uncommon, Gao Xianzhi, Ge Shuhan, and Yang Guozhong are all like this.
Then, Qin Jin pulled Miao Jinqing to the wall on the west side of Shuai Tang, which was covered by a curtain that hung from the ceiling to the ground, and he kept wondering what was behind the curtain. I only heard a few "swishs", and the curtains were pulled to both sides.
In front of him was a huge map of the Tang Dynasty, but the bends and ditches on this map were different from what he usually saw, but the fist-sized word "Chang'an" quickly made him find the location of Guanzhong. Qin Jin lifted a short rod with a thin handle and pointed to the corresponding position of Longyou.
According to Tanma, the situation in Longyou was extremely chaotic and complicated, the local officials almost cut off contact with the imperial court, and the two crossings of Tibet caused extremely serious damage...... There is also Shuofang in the north, in addition to the large number of remnants of the Tibetan army to make a rebellion, there are also a large number of Hui rebels, they all take advantage of the imperial court to take advantage of the time when the court has no time to take care of him! However, Longyou and Shuofang are the gateways of Guanzhong, and they must not sit idly by, and must effectively correct these chaos, and the rebels and thieves will either be annihilated or expelled, once the troops are mobilized, this is a big move that is not lost in the battle of Luoyang, so there must be an overall plan, otherwise it is very likely to drag the Tang Dynasty into the abyss of no bottom. ”
Miao Jinqing was stunned for a moment, although he also thought that the situation in Longyou and Shuofang was grim, but it was not to the point of life and death.
"The subordinates are willing to do their best to assist the doctor and pacify the local ......"
Qin Jin said again:
"It's not to assist Qin, what Miao Shilang has to face will be to pick up this burden alone!"
"What, what?"
Miao Jinqing's mouth grew in surprise, and he didn't know what to say for a while. Originally, he was just speculating that he might be appointed to serve as a chief official in one of the places of Shuofang and Longyou, but now it seems that how can he have the intention of handing over both places to him?
Outside of An Lushan, the imperial court has rarely gathered the festival envoys of several key places into one person!
However, since Qin Jin did not explicitly state the specific official position and dispatch, he also listened quietly, because he knew very well that the heavier the responsibility on his shoulders, the greater the power he had to give himself. After realizing this, he lost the joy and excitement of showing his strengths, and the pressure was like an impenetrable net, overwhelmingly pressing, and even overwhelming people.
From morning to evening, the two of them tirelessly discussed, talked, and discussed things up and down, all-encompassing, from Hedong in Hebei Province, and then from Hedong to Shuofang, and then from Shuofang to Hexi, and even Anxi, seeing the moon on the west building, and then entering the deep watch, the sound of fighting came, Miao Jinqing suddenly felt that his stomach was rumbling, and he glanced at Qin Jin, and laughed again.
Qin Jin laughed for a while, and also felt that the hunger in his stomach was unbearable, so he ordered someone to bring it up, and the leg of mutton and flatbread had already been baked, these two kinds of food were the most convenient and sumptuous in the army, and he was used to eating but was unwilling to touch those raw and cold meat dishes that were cumbersome to make but did not taste good.
Half an hour later, Qin Jin and Miao Jinqing were full of wine and food, and he held his hand on the desk and burped heavily.
"It's late today, if Miao Shilang doesn't dislike it, how about resting in Qin's square inch?"
Sleeping in the same room, this is a treatment that cannot be had by non-close relatives and trusts, Miao Jinqing was extremely surprised and grateful. He asked himself that his talent and learning were not inferior to anyone, but Qin Jin was still the first person who could really treat himself like this.
Miao Jinqing is not a pedantic person, knowing that Qin Jin's current official title of Imperial Historian is just the result of a deliberate low-key, as long as he wants to, even if he wants to be the head of the prime minister's Zhongshu Order, or even the Shangshu Order, or the king with a different surname, there is nothing wrong with it.
After several years of war, the Li Tang royal family gradually declined, especially after the fall of Chang'an, the emperor died tragically, the Son of Heaven was crippled, and his prestige and real power were destroyed. Relying on the rapid rise of the Shenwu Army, Qin and Jin not only controlled the imperial court in Chang'an, but also controlled Luoyang, which was far away from the pass. With heavy troops in hand and control the land of the two capitals, its power is no longer surpassed in the whole world!
Does the world belong to one person, or to all the people? These words always echoed in his chest......
