Chapter 159: The Book of the Military Department

Jingshi, south of the Forbidden City, Ya Zhi Street, Yamen of the Military Department.

The two carriages stopped in front of the gate of the military headquarters, Gu Yunduo slowly got out of the carriage, looked at the carriage that followed him all the way with a strange gaze, and then stopped behind him.

A young official dressed in a blue official robe got out of the carriage, and a pair of herons were embroidered on the patch on his chest.

"This little brother is tight-faced, are you also from the military department?" Gu Yunduo asked with a smile.

"My lord," Yang Muyun bowed to him, "The lower official only came to report to the military department yesterday, no wonder the adults are angry." ”

"Oh," Gu Yunduo stroked his beard, "I don't know which department the little brother is in?" ”

"Lord Hui," Yang Muyun said with a straight face: "Xia Guan is currently the head of the Qing Officials Department of the Ministry of War. ”

"Huh?" A hint of brilliance flashed in Gu Yunduo's eyes, "It turns out that you are Director Yang who came to our company to report yesterday." ”

"How does the adult know about the affairs of the lower officials," Yang Muyun pretended to be surprised, "The adult is ......"

"This officer and soldier department is a member of the Qing Officials Division, and Wailang Gu Yunduo." Gu Yunduo said loudly.

"It turned out to be Lord Gu," Yang Muyun pretended to be surprised, and gave a new salute, "The lower official came to the government office yesterday, but he failed to visit the lord, and asked the lord to forgive him." ”

"Those who don't know are not guilty," Gu Yunduo smiled slightly, "Why is Director Yang so polite?" Glancing at the carriage behind him, "Where did Director Yang come from?" ”

"When Xiaguan first arrived in the capital, he didn't have a place to live, and after he released the government yesterday, he drank with a few acquaintances all night......" He immediately paused and continued: "Fortunately, I missed the time of today's office." ”

"Director Yang is young and romantic, and drinking and prostituting with others is a great pleasure in life," Gu Yunduo said with a smile: "This official was also young, and Director Yang does not need to be ashamed." ”

"Let the adults see it," Yang Muyun's face was a little confused, and he stood sideways, "My lord, please"

Gu Yunduo nodded slightly, flicked the sleeves of his robe, and Shi Shiran walked towards the ya.

The main office of the Clearance Division of the Ministry of War has started another busy day. Yang Muyun also buried his head in the official documents like mountains and began to transcribe the manuscript.

"The commander of the Yan'an Guard requested the allocation of 800 military horses, the commander of Sui Dewei requested the allocation of 800 military horses, and the Qingyang Wei ......" Yang Muyun shook his head after reading it, "The three guards are hundreds of miles apart, and almost at the same time, the Ministry of War asked for the allocation of military horses, and they are all 800, so they are all colluding...... "Just thinking about it, only to hear the door curtain move, Yang Muyun looked up, Gu Yunduo walked in, and saw him quickly come to the bookcase in Huang Shanting's office.

Huang Shanting hurriedly put down the official document in his hand and bowed to Gu Yunduo. Gu Yunduo said a few words to him politely, as if asking him something. Huang Shanting frowned, thought silently for a long time, then shook his head, and replied a few words to Gu Yunduo helplessly, Gu Yunduo sighed softly, flicked the sleeves of his robe, and hurried out of the main room.

Due to the distance, Yang Muyun couldn't hear what they were talking about.

"Last night, Gu Yunduo agreed with that little boy to take a piece of things from the military department and hand them over to him, and receive a lot of money, what is it?" Yang Muyun couldn't help but think, he glanced at Huang Shanting, "Just now, he talked to Master Huang for a long time, and I don't know if he mentioned such a thing. With a move in his heart, he picked up the official document in his hand and walked towards Director Huang.

"Huang's master." Yang Muyun came to Huang Shanting's book case and bowed.

"Oh, it's Lord Yang," Huang Shanting's body sitting in the chair owed slightly, and waved his hand, "Please take a seat!" ”

"Master Huang, there are some unclear things for the younger generation to ask you for, and I hope to give you advice." Yang Muyun said.

"Director Yang is not polite, please speak." Huang Shanting said kindly.

"The three guards of Yan'an, Suide, and Qingyang wrote to ask the Ministry of War to allocate 800 military horses to them, I don't know how to deal with it, and I also asked Director Huang for guidance." Yang Muyun asked.

"A guard will cost eight hundred military horses," Huang Shanting's white eyebrows raised, "What a big appetite, a guard in the Beijing army is not worthy of so many military horses, besides, ......" he coughed lightly and said, "Besides, the military horses in the horse farm on the outskirts of Beijing are not in the hands of our military department now." ”

"The military horse is not in the hands of our military department?" Yang Muyun was stunned.

"Director Yang has just come to Jingshi, and it seems that he still doesn't understand a lot of things," Huang Shanting glanced at him, "Now the Jingjiao Horse Farm is with the military horses inside."

It has been handed over to the imperial horse supervisor in the palace, if they want military horses, they will go to the palm print of the imperial horse eunuch, Admiral Xing'an Xing! ”

"Oh, so that's the case," Yang Muyun suddenly said, "Then don't you want our military department to ask for it from the Imperial Horse Supervisor?" ”

"This document can be copied and reported directly," Huang Shanting said, "The above will send someone to the Imperial Horse Supervisor to negotiate this matter," he said, shaking his head, "Eight hundred military horses...... Hmph, it's good to allocate five hundred military horses to each guard. ”

"The seniors are high, and the younger generations remember," Yang Muyun then placed a copy of the Tang newspaper in front of Huang Shanting and read: "Someone secretly wrote to the governor of Shazhou, the governor of Weidu, and Brother Nan and others have the intention of rebelling against Wara, and they may constitute a border trouble." ”

"Yin has a rebellion ......" Huang Shanting recited silently a few times, closed his eyes slightly and said: "This matter is dispensable, without evidence, you can arbitrarily suspect the Mongolian border guards inside, if it is not handled properly, it may provoke a mutiny." ”

"Then, this report will be skipped aside?" Yang Muyun asked cautiously.

"No," Huang Shanting opened his eyes and said with a solemn face: "If there is really something, if we skip it and don't report it, won't it cause a big disaster...... Let's copy it! ”

"The juniors understand," Yang Muyun then praised: "A moment of guidance from the seniors is worth thinking for a long time for the juniors, and Lord Huang is actually the first person in my main room." ”

"Director Yang has an overreputation," Huang Shanting said with a smile: "Huang has been in the main office of this military department for almost 30 years, and he has been immersed for a long time, but he is just familiar with some inside information!" ”

"If Lord Gu is transferred to either of his parents in a foreign country as he wishes, then the position of a member of this department must be Director Huang." Yang Muyun said with a smile.

"What did you say?" Huang Shanting's eyes widened and he looked at Yang Muyun, "You said that Lord Gu wants to seek an external transfer?" Suddenly, with Yang Muyun's private identity as Jinyiwei, it is not uncommon to investigate these.

"Didn't Lord Fang Caigu mention this to you?" Yang Muyun asked strangely.

"Lord Gu just asked the old man for a map of the troops stationed around the capital division for five hundred miles, and he didn't mention the matter of external transfer!" Huang Shanting pondered for a moment and said.

"A map of the troops stationed in the five hundred miles around the Beijing Division?" Yang Muyun couldn't help but be shocked when he heard this, "What is he looking for this thing for?" But he said quietly on his face: "Lord Gu must have remembered wrongly, how could such an important thing be here with you?" ”

"This picture was mainly drawn by the old man at that time, and Lord Gu thought that the old man still had a manuscript here, so he came to ask for it," Huang Shanting said while thinking: "But the picture and the old man have all handed over the manuscript to Lord Shangshu, and there is not a single word left here." ”

"It seems that Master Gu is afraid that there is something missing from the predecessors here, so he came over to check." Yang Muyun made a round.

"The old man has been doing things here for almost 30 years, and he has never made a mistake, so Lord Gu's actions are inevitably redundant." Hearing Yang Muyun say this, Huang Shanting couldn't help but feel a little stunned.

At this time, a scribe brought a pile of official documents and put them on Huang Shanting's desk, and then retreated.

"The seniors are busy with official business, so the juniors don't bother much." Yang Muyun got up and said.

"Director Yang, please." Huang Shanting leaned back slightly.

......

"A member of the Department of Officials of the Ministry of War has done everything possible to find a map of the troops stationed in the capital for five hundred miles around the Beijing Division, this is my top military secret," Yang Muyun was secretly frightened, "That little boy doesn't know who he is, and he must have ulterior motives for buying this secret at a high price." ”

Yang Muyun sat down in front of his bookcase and picked up an official document, "Guangning Bian Bao, thousands of Wuliang thieves are hidden in the forest......" Although he read the Tang newspaper in his mouth, his thoughts were already a mess, "Do I want to report this matter to Lord Shangshu?" Then he shook his head, "I just came to the military department, and I have the background of Jinyiwei, will the people in the military department believe me?" "After thinking about it again, "Why don't I report it to the Fusi of Jinyi Weibei Town......" Just as he was thinking wildly, a scribe walked into the main room, came to his bookcase, bowed down and said, "Lord Chief, Lord Lang Zhong is invited." ”

"Lord Langzhong looking for me?" Yang Muyun was stunned.

Yang Muyun came to Lu Yulin's signing room, but saw an old man over sixty years old and majestic-looking sitting behind Lu Yulin's bookcase in a scarlet official uniform, but Lu Yulin stood aside respectfully.

Yang Muyun was stunned for a moment and looked at Lu Yulin.

"Yang is in charge

, this is Lord Shangshu of our military department, don't come forward to see you soon! Lu Yulin said loudly to Yang Muyun.

"Lord Shangshu?" Yang Muyun's body was shocked, and he hurriedly bowed to the ground, "Yang Muyun, the head of the military department, visited Lord Shangshu." ”

"Get up, get up," Kuang said with a smile, "Director Yang doesn't have to be polite. ”

"Lord Xie Shangshu!" Yang Muyun got up and stood aside.

"Director Yang came to the old man's military department on an errand, are you still used to everything?" Kwong looked at him and asked.

"It's okay, it's okay......" Yang Muyun didn't know how to answer.

"Master Yang is a little insincere," Kuang stared at him closely, "The old man has a lot of rules in the yamen of the military department, but he is not as free as the Jinyi Weibei Division." ”

"Lord Shangshu," Yang Muyun arched his hand, and said neither humbly nor arrogantly: "Since the subordinate joined the military department, he has been conscientiously doing his own thing, and he does not dare to slack off in the slightest!" ”

"The old man understands," Kuang nodded, and picked up a manuscript from Lu Yulin's bookcase, "Is this what you wrote from Director Yang?" ”

"It's exactly what Xia Guan wrote," Yang Muyun glanced at it, then bowed down and said.

"Well," Kuang stroked his beard, "the handwriting is good, and the content of the excerpted Kumontang Newspaper is also clearly prioritized, it seems that he has indeed read the book." ”

"Master Xie Shangshu praises!" Yang Muyun hurriedly responded.

"Yang Muyun," Kuang looked at him with a hint of appreciation, "The emperor values you very much, and the old man also has high hopes for you, I believe that your ability will not disappoint anyone!" ”

"The lower officials have nothing to do, but they know how to be loyal to the emperor and serve the court with what they have learned." Yang Muyun said loudly.

"Very good, old man believes in you." Kuang stood up and came to him with his hands behind his back, "Now the old man has an errand to be handed over to you." ”

"Please make it clear to Lord Shangshu!" Yang Muyun said with a straight face.

"Now that the border army is short of horses, many commanders of the guard post have reported to the old man and asked the military department to allocate military horses to them as soon as possible." Kuang paused slightly when he said this, "But the military horse is not in the hands of our military department, but is controlled by the imperial horse prison in the inner court. ”

"What Lord Shangshu means is that the border army asks for horses from the military department, and the horses of the military department have to ask for them from the imperial horse supervisor." Yang Muyun was nodden by Huang Shanting, and he was no longer surprised by this.

"What a begging word," Kuang hooked the corners of his mouth and stared, "I didn't expect our military department to fall into such a situation in the eyes of Chief Yang." ”

"The lower officials don't dare, the lower officials are just talking about things," Yang Muyun said: "Lord Shangshu said that the military horses are controlled by the imperial horse prison in the inner court, isn't it already very clear?" ”

"Director Yang is thoughtful, but the old man is impressed," Kuang looked at him for a moment and said: "The military horses are controlled by the Imperial Horse Prison in the inner court, and it is really not easy to ask for them, I wonder if Director Yang has any other ways to solve the problem of military horses?" ”

"The subordinate has only been in the military department for a short time, and he has shallow knowledge, and he has taken the liberty of offering advice, and he is afraid of being laughing and generous." Yang Muyun lowered his head and said.

"Yang is in charge, but it's okay to talk about it, the old man needs to brainstorm here." Kwong said.

"The border towns are close to the outside of the Saiwai, so why don't you trade with the Mongols to get good horses?" Yang Muyun's chin was raised slightly, and he said indifferently.

"Good idea," Kuang said with a hint of ridicule in his eyes, "It seems that my Ming generals are not as smart as Chief Yang, and they don't trade with the Mongolian military horses that are close at hand, but they come to ask for it from the military headquarters thousands of miles away." ”

"Xiaguan is foolish, please ask Lord Shangshu to give more instructions!" As soon as Yang Muyun heard Kuang's tone, he knew that his words were very inappropriate.

"Chief Yang, if you were a Mongolian, what would you do, would you sell your horse to me Daming?" Kuang asked with a glance.

"This ......" Yang Muyun was speechless for a while, not knowing how to answer.

"Director Yang, the old man asks you again, I built the Great Wall and built nine borders, who is it to defend again?" Kwong's tone was a little heavier.

"Naturally, those Mongolian Tatars outside the Seychelles." Yang Muyun replied without hesitation.

"Very good," Kuang continued, "those Mongol Tartars have repeatedly violated my Ming border, and they are nothing more than horses flying back and forth under my crotch, so that my Ming border army cannot catch up." ”
