Chapter Seventy-Five: House Fight?
At the beginning of July, the weather changed from hot to very hot, and seeing that there was no rain for many days, I was glad that there were not many floods this season, but now I began to worry about the harvest after autumn. Although there is no shortage of water in the south of the Yangtze River, if it dries up over the years, it is inevitable that the output will be reduced.
Located in the forbidden political hall, Wang Entropy's residence is very spacious, which was originally used by Jia Xianggong, who was in power, and the furnishings in the house are also exquisite. Chen Yizhong paced unhurriedly in the room, but his eyes didn't look at those things at all.
"What a young talent, loyal to the country, not chaotic in the face of danger, and having both expediency and opportunities, we old guys, I'm afraid we have to invite ourselves to the position, so as not to be impeached as a 'corpse vegetarian meal'."
Liu Mengyan has such a ability, no matter what kind of sarcasm and sarcasm comes to his mouth, he can always say it in a serious tone, and you can't laugh when you listen to it.
Listening to his words, Chen Yizhong was unmoved, he didn't want to get involved in this matter, Liu Yu is not his person, Chen Wenlong is not his person, who is the mastermind of this matter, what kind of purpose does it have, he is not interested, how many military affairs are waiting for him to deal with, but he still has to play with the two old foxes here, he is very bored in his heart, but there is no star on his face.
"Han Fu, He Quan, how to deal with this matter, you all talk about it." Wang Entropy nodded at a document that had just been sent and said.
The document was sent from Ouchi, and although there was no trace of any instructions on it, no one knew that the Empress Dowager had passed it. Moreover, the three ministers all know the attitude of the saint, and the general process of yesterday's recital has long been clear except for individual details, and now this hand is just a formality.
Liu Yu invited himself to be exempted from the crown and went to marry the daughter of the Duke of Xinguo, according to the current result, he was wronged, and his great achievements were not rewarded, and with such a stubble, it was originally a very simple thing, but it suddenly became complicated, and it was difficult to grasp the severity.
It was obvious that the sage had paid attention to this son, and the three people in the room were silent, and for a while they couldn't even think of a proper seat to place him, naturally not to satisfy him, but to make the person in the Ciyuan Hall feel at ease.
After the vigorous adjustment in the previous paragraph, there are no suitable positions in Beijing or abroad, and I am afraid that I will not be able to please the idle officials who are scattered, and the important ministries cannot be given, and the house has become audible. Unconsciously, Chen Yizhong also stopped, thinking in his heart.
"How about moving the cardinal's side and letting him serve as the capital of the government?" His voice broke the silence in the room.
"From the fifth grade, it was originally not low, but now I am afraid it is not enough." Wang Entropy and Liu Mengyan thought about it and shook their heads.
"Then add two levels of cabinet positions, this is already over-promoted, and it can't be higher." Chen Yizhong added.
"What about Lu Shimeng?" Liu Mengyan knew that the original person had just been promoted.
"The Lu family is now on the cusp, let him change to an idle position or let him go." Chen Yizhong said helplessly, he knew in his heart that it was impossible to go out, and the people of the Lu family would go out and rebel one by one, and they could no longer arrange it at all, so they could only be idle.
"This is Jingguan, what about going out? Where are the vacancies. Wang Entropy spread out his hands and said, the three of them all smiled bitterly, a yellow-mouthed child, let the ministers of the political hall have a headache about where he goes, one place is not enough, and he has to add an alternative, it is ridiculous!
"The coastal envoy and the Zhiqing Yuan Mansion are good, and most of the Duke of Xinguo will not take this position, so let his son-in-law do it, and it can be regarded as an explanation to the Ye Mansion, and the saint will definitely be able to do it." Liu Mengyan's mind turned, and he suddenly thought of a good idea.
His mention made Wang Entropy's eyes light up, it was really a double win, Hai Si was also in charge of the city, this position was not only important but also a fat shortage, the kid was afraid that he would be ecstatic when he learned about it, Chen Yizhong also nodded when he heard this, and the three of them achieved a rare unanimity.
"How to reply to Yuanren, there must be a charter for talking or not, and I can't give them any more excuses." ended a headache, Wang Entropy immediately threw out another one, it has been delayed for too long, and if it continues like this, I am afraid that there will be another incident.
"Wang Bohou went to Huaixi, which means that he will make a decision when he comes back, and if there is nothing abnormal, send someone to talk to them." It is difficult to express a position on this kind of thing, and both of them are a little cautious, and after a while, Chen Yizhong thought of something and said.
Wang Yinglin went to announce the edict, according to the schedule, he should have been on the way back, if there was no accident, it would be three or four days to return to Beijing, Chen Yizhong's mention was quite serious, and it did not arouse Wang Entropy's disgust.
As for the negotiation of peace, it is a very risky thing, it is easy to make meritorious contributions, and it is easy to carry the black cauldron, Chen Yizhong has no intention of getting involved, as usual, it should be the Ministry of Rites and Taichang Temple to take the lead, he wants to see what kind of result the final talks will be.
In the city of Ezhou, Ali Hague personally sent him out of the palace by the hand of an old man, who had a smile on his face, and in his eyes it seemed to be barely squeezed out, and although he spoke fluent Chinese, he could not understand the thoughts of these Han people.
"Lao Jie, you are a talented person in this house, I thought that Da Lang was already a handsome talent, but I didn't expect that there was a more powerful second brother, who could be praised by the Great Khan himself, what a glory this is, why do you look like this?"
"Pingzhang laughed, the foolish grandson has a few catties and a few taels, I don't know, the Great Khan looked at the face of my Xie family, and casually praised a few words, I can't deserve it, I can't deserve it." The water army Wanhu, Pei Jinhu Fu Xie Cheng waved his hand and thanked him.
He has not yet reached sixty, and this time he took the men of the Mansion to go on the expedition, thinking about how he could make some credit, but he never thought that his eldest son and grandson fought under Jiankang City, but fortunately, there was still a grandson by his side, and the Xie family was not gone.
Unexpectedly, the eldest son was still in the hands of the Song people, and the grandson he had always disliked actually ran back from Jiangnan, and was somehow summoned by the Great Khan, not only was he not guilty, but he made meritorious contributions. Ali Hague asked him to come over, just to inform him of this matter, I thought he would be grateful, but who knew that after listening to it, Xie Cheng would react like this.
returned to his camp, Xie Cheng was still upset, the eldest son had two sons in total, the second brother was not a down-to-earth person, and the relationship between the two brothers was not good. In this way, the more talented he is, the more he is not a helper, but a hidden danger.
The Xie clan is not a poetry heirloom, from the troubled times, it was fought out with a knife and a gun, as a strong man in the north, he understands the truth that the strong are respected. Therefore, the second child has some ambitions, which is also natural, and when he was young, he became more and more restless after joining the army.
"Ah Weng, what's wrong, is it daddy" In his own account, Xie Cheng didn't hide his thoughts, his troubles were written on his face, so when Xie Jia's grandson came in, he saw it at a glance.
"Brother Ti, Erlang is back, he is now" Xie Cheng didn't know what to say, that kid was already a deputy thousand households, only half a step away from him, not only that, the Great Khan also gave a silver tiger talisman, and he fought hard to get a gold, I really don't know what kind of credit he has made, and he will get such a great honor.
He has great expectations for this grandson in front of him, and he has not disappointed him all the time, filial piety to himself, hard work, he has long been regarded by him as the future head of the Xie family, no matter how he chooses, he can't look at the person born to a woman of such status, even if he is talented.
But he also knew that if there was no accident, he would definitely die in front of him, losing his protection, whether this grandson could fight that person or not, it is still unknown, he was too smooth, he did not go through the wind and rain at all, and that person was mixed up in the army.
"Ah Weng tells his grandson what to do, just show me." Brother Ti didn't have much panic, he didn't feel that he had much sense of crisis, just by virtue of his background, he threw off the second brother who didn't know how many miles.
"If I asked you to go to the capital of the Song people and rescue your father, would you be willing?" After thinking for a while, Xie Cheng suddenly turned around and said to him.
"Ahh Brother Ti didn't expect such a thing, so he cried out in surprise and ran to the capital of the Song people? What's the difference between that and sending to death.
"Now that the war has stopped, and my envoy from Dayuan is negotiating peace with them there, you can bring some belongings and see if you can meet each other, and then inquire about the conditions of the Song people, if you can redeem them with money, it will also be a credit. Tomorrow, there will be envoys from the city, if you are willing, I think of a way for you to add it, the Song people will not move the envoys, but there is no need to worry. ”
In a hurry, Xie Cheng couldn't think of any other way, his son would definitely get it back, since the Song people didn't kill him, it means that there is room for operation, let Brother Tie go on such a trip, one can let the experience be trained, and the other may also make a contribution, of course, there are risks, it is already like this, it is better to fight.
"It's all up to Ah Weng to decide, and the grandchildren are all obedient." Although he was reluctant in his heart, Brother Ti replied respectfully, he didn't think that the Song people would attack the messenger, as long as he could save his life, he would take a trip.
Seeing that his grandson was still obedient as always, Xie Cheng patted him on the shoulder with satisfaction to show his appreciation, I am afraid that this time I will break some money, and the Xie family will lose not only one Xie Ruji, but also many subordinates who were captured and killed and wounded, which is the foundation of the Xie family's foothold, and if possible, we must try to protect it.
Although there are envoys in the court who are talking with the Song people, he is always a little unsure, and the movements of the Great Khan in the north are known to everyone, if the war is imminent, it means that the captives in the hands of the Song people have been abandoned, will they kill to vent their anger? Xie Cheng didn't dare to think deeply, only by working his own trip could he feel somewhat at ease. R1058
