In the golden autumn of September, the solemn ceremony of sacrificing prisoners had just been completed, and the seventy-second time of Chengguo Gong sacrificed heaven and earth for Emperor Longqing.

The people of the capital were still immersed in the joy brought by the victory at Xifengkou, and a series of hurried horses' hooves sounded in Fuchengmen.

"100,000 urgent, get out of the way!" The knight on the horse urged urgently, the horses and camels neighed under the Fucheng Gate, the convoy carrying coal hurriedly got out of the way, and the soldiers guarding the gate also quickly withdrew to reject the horses, and let the messenger enter the city.

It was only when the sound of the horses' hooves became quieter that the people came back to their senses and began to talk.

"This is a military report from the direction of Xuanda."

"Isn't it good news again?" After the big victory, the people of the capital were full of confidence and wanted peaches.

"You are dreaming of marrying a daughter-in-law—only thinking of good things." The guests laughed and said: "If it was good news, I would have shouted 'good news' a long time ago, what did you hear just now?" ”

"It seems to be...... 100,000 people were in a hurry, ...... "Everyone was poured a basin of cold water on their heads, and their hearts became heavy. "Surely it wasn't a victory?"

"Could it be that Xuanda lost the battle?" People guessed nervously, and then they remembered that I was not the stinky fish and rotten shrimp of Dong Fox...... In fact, Dong Fox still thinks that he is better than Me. But there is no way, the king is defeated. He has now become a prisoner of the Ming Dynasty, and even the evaluation of the people of the Ming Kingdom on Uliangha has decreased a lot.

"It looks like I can't be happy too soon." A businessman sighed and said, "I was going to Shanxi to get some vinegar, so let's stay honest." ”

"Yes, I am too ruthless, I slaughtered Shizhou three years ago, isn't it in Shanxi?" People are worried again, wondering when this kind of worrying day will end?

~~

Wenyuan Pavilion.

The university scholars received the military report sent by the General Administration Department, and Zhao Zhenji, the bachelor on duty, was just about to study, and the chapter in his hand disappeared.

Zhao Zhenji's hands still maintained the posture of Fang Cai, and he looked up in surprise, only to see that he was snatched away by the high arch splitter, and looked at it by himself.

"You ......" Zhao Zhenji's old face turned red.

"What are you? Does the military matter concern you? Gao Gong glanced at him.

"I'm a college scholar!" Zhao Zhenji said with a slash.

"What's the noise? We're all here, so we don't need you to meddle with things. Gao Gong didn't bird him, turned his head to Zhang Juzheng and said, "Let's go, Taiyue, go to my room and see." ”

Seeing that Gao Gong was so tight, Zhang Juzheng knew that something big must have happened, smiled apologetically at Zhao Zhenji, got up and went out.

Shousuke-sama sat there quietly writing, not saying a word the whole time, as if he didn't exist as a person.

"Motosuke, look at him!" Zhao Zhenji's aggrieved complaint.

"Don't be angry, don't be angry, there is no one to replace you." Li Chunfang shook the pen lightly and comforted: "You bear with him, let him, avoid him, bear with him, let him, respect him, and ignore him." In a few years, you will see him. ”

"Hiccup......" Zhao Zhenji was angry and was poured a bowl of chicken soup again, and he didn't know whether he was full or burped angrily. He also thought that Li Chunfang was copying Buddhist scriptures, but when he walked over to take a look, he found that it was actually a resignation.

"Motosuke, this is?" He couldn't help but be taken aback.

"Xie Shi when Xie Yu is in his prime, he lives in a lonely place. Only by retreating bravely from the rapids can we be preserved. Li Chunfang said lightly: "It's not good to wait for people to pick people up." ”

"Yuanfu why can't bear to abandon hundreds of officials and ignore ......" Zhao Zhenji felt that the whole person was not good, mainly because if he was the only one left, life would be even more unbearable.

"Alas, you don't know what the officials say about me? The licorice in the prescription is just a little bit of licorice, I moisten a little, not as bitter as me, there is not much difference. Li Chunfang smiled self-deprecatingly.

"The difference is big...... Zhao Zhenji wanted to persuade him, but he saw Li Chunfang waving his hand and signaling him not to say more.

"Before I leave, if you want to do something, just do it." After Li Chunfang finished speaking, he lowered his head and concentrated on contemplating his resignation, and no longer bothered him.

"Yuanfu ......" Zhao Zhenji was stunned, he suddenly realized that once Li Chunfang submitted his resignation, the emperor would have to comfort him, and the hundred officials would have to be retained, and it would take at least a few months to be approved. During this time, Shousuke-sama was almost invincible.

Cho Jung-gil's heart pounded, and he realized that this was his last chance.

~~

The second floor of Wenyuan Pavilion, in the high arch value room.

Looking at the contents of the newspaper written by Wang Chonggu, the governor of Xuanda, Zhang Juzheng couldn't close his mouth in surprise.

'I replied that Sun had sent Hannaji out of the night and died, but he went to Datong and detained him and begged to surrender. Datong general soldier Ma Fangna, the minister also thought that it was a strange thing to live in. However, I will not give up, I am afraid that the soldiers will be brought to claim it back, I have a traitor Zhao Quanshang is still there, I can teach him to send it to each other; Otherwise, he will be appeased, such as the example of the proton of the Han Dynasty, so that he will attract the old department and live in the vicinity. ’

'I answer the old and die, Yizi Huang Taiji is not as good as his father, I can order him to go out of the plug and go to fight Taiji, he is a sandpiper and a mussel, I am a fisherman, isn't it a good strategy? However, whether it is easy to stay or to be punished, it is all out of the top, and the ministers only hope to recover as soon as possible, and do not miss the military plane......

He watched it carefully again, Fang looked up at Gao Gong with a smile on his face, and knew that this was not a coincidence, but a big drama jointly directed by Gao Gong and Lao Xi'er.

Otherwise, why did Gao Gong urge Qi Jiguang to fight Wuliangha as soon as possible? Isn't it just to free up your hands so that you can concentrate on me?

Zhang Juzheng couldn't help but feel creepy, Lao Gao and Lao Xi'er were so bitter to hide themselves. If they conspire against him in the future, will he not remain in the dark?

Bugu hurriedly suppressed his untimely worries, and quietly asked Gao Gong to say: "I don't know what Xuan Weng wants?" ”

"Alas, Taiyue is in charge of the military, of course I have to listen to your opinion." Gao Gong's attitude was surprisingly kind, and he was like two people when he treated Zhao Zhenji downstairs.

"According to the servant's opinion, Wang Duxian's suggestion is very controllable, and it can be followed." Zhang Juzheng carefully said: "But we must also beware of raising a large army to provoke the border, if we arrest a group of ordinary people or 100 officers and soldiers or even civil and military officials, and press to Datong City to ask for a replacement, then Wang Duxian will be passive." ”

"Well, it's still Taiyue's meticulous thinking." Gao Gong kept the blank manuscript on the table and said: "You will write a copy and send it to him, and order him to completely shrink and prepare for the war, and never let me get the chips." ”

"Understood." Zhang Juzheng nodded, and didn't ask Si Zhilang to come in, so he grabbed his cuffs and studied the ink himself.

"By the way, Taiyue," Gao Gong crossed his arms, paced around his desk, and said after a long time: "Do you think it is possible to solve the border trouble of Xuanda once and for all?" ”

"Oh?" Zhang Juzheng said that the drama meat was coming, so he asked, "What is Xuan Weng's opinion?" ”

"After the victory at Xifengkou, the old man was thinking, how can he give me such an answer at once, so that the Tatar Ministry is completely honest?" Gao Gong said slowly: "But thinking about it, it doesn't seem realistic." ”

Xuan Weng was very worried, Tatar now dominates right-wing Mongolia, with a vast territory and a large population. With the current national strength of our Ming Dynasty, it will be difficult to fight them in a decisive battle in 20 years. Zhang Juzheng chimed in: "Besides, even if you defeat the Tatars, drive them back to Mobei." In the bitter cold land of the grassland, there is no garrison to defend it, and it is just a wedding dress for Warat and Chahar. ”

"Yes, that's it!" Gao Gong breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, what he was most worried about was that he couldn't even convince Zhang Juzheng, so what a fart?

"The wolves on the grassland cannot be killed, and we must change our strategy, such as domesticating the wolves into dogs and letting the dogs help people take care of the homes." He stopped going around in circles and said: "In fact, what the Tartars want is nothing more than to connect with each other, and those brainless guys are always scruples and scruples about that, and refuse to resume the market." If I am willing to pay tribute, I think I might as well negotiate peace with him......"

Saying that, he sighed and said: "The people in the north are too bitter, so it is right to rest with the people for a few years and recover their vitality." ”

"Xuan Weng is right." Zhang Juzheng nodded in agreement, but he refused to put down the pen for a long time. "It's just that in this way, I'm afraid that the government and the opposition will talk about it."

It's lice on a bald man's head - obviously. The civil officials of the Ming Dynasty were diehards who tried to shell the captured emperor in order to wash away the shame and not be blackmailed. In the past few decades, the imperial court has suffered so much loss from me, how can it easily accept peace?

The old man didn't say that Shizhou's revenge would not be avenged. But as the saying goes, it is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge. "That's exactly what Gao Gong is worried about, so he needs to have a victory first, so as to block the mouths of Youyou.

"Yue Wang Goujian still knows how to lie down and taste the courage, ten years of life and gathering, ten years of lessons, and a great cause. We can't even be inferior to the ancients of 2,000 years ago! ”

Zhang Juzheng nodded, but he was a little disapproving, and secretly said, 'Cheap enough' has not only tasted gall, but also tasted stool, this person is really incomparable.

"The Tartars are repetitive by nature, how many times have they rebelled, how can this time be an exception? It will definitely be the other way around in the future. Gao Gong waved his hand and said undoubtedly: "We are only negotiating peace to gain time to gather lessons, and when they are ready, they just can't do it!" ”

"Xuan Weng is really painstaking." Zhang Juzheng couldn't help but admire: "I don't know if we can see that day?" ”

"That's not important, it doesn't have to be me." Gao Gong said angrily: "The old man is willing to be the business of the Ming Dynasty, as long as he can make the country prosperous, although he dies nine times without regrets!" ”

"Xuan Weng is a true countryman!" Zhang Juzheng hurriedly got up to salute and sighed: "It's better to be a servant." ”

"Alas, Taiyue, you are one round younger than the old man, live well, and you will definitely be able to see that day." Gao Gong laughed and helped him up, and said emotionally: "The old man begs to clear the thorns for you, what about the monstrous infamy?" In the future, when you succeed, it is enough to say a fair word for the old man! ”

"Xuan Weng ......" Zhang Juzheng's eyes were slightly red.

"Alas, I told you a long time ago, don't call me Xuan Weng, it's too raw, and you call me old." Gao Gong shook his head with a smile and said, "I still like the words you call me like back then." ”

"Yes." Zhang Juzheng smiled and shouted, "Brother Su Qing." ”

"Hey, uncle." Gao Gong smiled in response, the two looked at each other and laughed, and suddenly felt that the mustard was gone, and they returned to the time when they were both Yuwang speakers, and they climbed high and looked far away, talked with candles and nights, and made an appointment to prosper the green years of the Ming Dynasty.
