Chapter 1566: The Difficult Sutra

Fu Lin's words were a bit transparent, even a little excessive.

It stands to reason that no matter how jealous Azig is, as an emperor, he should not say Azig so openly, which is almost accusing Azig of rebellion.

But Fulin is indeed in a hurry, of course, everyone in front of him is a confidant, which is also the main reason why he is open-mouthed.

Fan Wencheng said calmly: "The old minister naturally knows that it is impossible for Prince Rui to obey Prince Ying's festival. ”

Hong Chengchou suddenly came to his senses, he nodded and said, "Miao...... Lord Fan made a good plan to drive the tiger and devour the wolf. ”

Being so little bit by Hong Chengchou, Jierharang also understood instantly, and Fu Lin and Yue Le also woke up.

Yue Le praised repeatedly: "Fan Xiang has a wonderful plan! ”

Fan Wencheng shook his hand and said, "This is just incidental, my original intention is not here." ”

Fu Lin hurriedly said, "Sir, speak quickly." ”

"The real intention of the old minister is...... Wu Zheng did not want to fight a decisive battle with our dynasty, so the two sides had a consensus on this point. In this case, why not open up a trial battlefield in Anqing, Luzhou, and Fengyang? Using a limited and controllable war to resolve all the contradictions between the two sides can not only reassure the people, but also take care of the face of the imperial court, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone...... No, kill three birds with one stone, because, no matter how limited and controllable the war is, people will die, but the imperial court only paid a false lord, and did not send a single soldier...... Your Majesty, if this war had been fought for one or two years, or even longer, after the three sides had been exhausted, and the imperial court had been careful about internal affairs and armaments during these years, it should be self-evident what the situation would become, right? ”

Hong Chengchou clapped his hands and applauded: "Fan Xiang is really an old man seeking the country." ”

Yue Le nodded and praised, "This plan is really a clever plan. ”

Zilharang stroked his beard and praised: "Once the war starts, Prince Ying and Prince Rui have no intention of looking north, and the relationship will definitely deteriorate due to the dispute over power, and the imperial court will take the opportunity to accumulate strength...... Well, it's a win-win- ”

Fu Lin got up and dragged Fan Wencheng's sleeve pipe with both hands: "Mr. is really my Zhang Liang." ”

These words made Fan Wencheng a little excited, he bowed down tremblingly, and said with tears in his eyes: "To get Your Majesty's words, the old minister's life is enough." ”

On the side, a trace of coldness flashed in Hong Chengchou's eyes, and he asked with a smile: "It's just...... This plan also needs a suitable person to be used as a bargaining chip to balance the three parties, otherwise, with more than 30,000 people in Guangxin Wei District, I am afraid that I will not be able to stop the thunderous blow of Prince Ying. Thinking about it, Fan Xiang should have already made up his mind? ”

Fan Wencheng raised his head and smiled at Hong Chengchou and said: "Fan does have a candidate in his heart, but it must be decided by the emperor after Brother Hong, Prince Zheng, and Prince An consider it together." ”

Fu Lin asked, "Who does the gentleman want to take on this role?" ”

Fan Wencheng said slowly: "Qian Qianyi. ”

……。

The next day, Fulin issued an edict conferring on Prince Ying Azig as the general of the expedition to the south, Yue Le as the general of Pingnan, and all the soldiers and horses south of Gyeonggi.

Since then, the Battle of Fengyang has begun, and in the words of Azig who swore in front of the emperor, it is to annihilate the enemy and live up to the emperor's grace.

But after Azig carried the general's seal letter and led his banner army to leave the capital.

Fulin issued another edict, he quietly promoted Qian Qianyi, the former waiter of the Ministry of Rites, to the secretary of the ministry, of course, this is just a false title, the heads of the yamen of the Qing court are divided into Manchu Shangshu and Han Shangshu, and the power is basically in Manshangshu.

Because of this, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty basically didn't take this seriously, and yes, Qian Qianyi was a "supporter" hero after all.

But no one noticed that only one day later, Qian Qianyi, who had just been promoted to minister of Shangshu, quietly left Beijing and his whereabouts were unknown.

……。

A few days later.

Qingzhou Prefecture governs the capital city.

Today, the new Prince Rui Dolbo's domain has four prefectures, namely Yanzhou, Qingzhou, Jinan, and Xuzhou.

Due to the ineffective war between Xuzhou and the Northern Expeditionary Army before, after a group of Manchu generals in Yanzhou took the opportunity to jointly impeach, Shen Zhiyuan was "assigned" to Qingzhou by Dolbo.

Shen Zhiyuan not only brought his 2,000 old departments, but also brought his wife Dongguo, who was about to give birth. This is said to be "distribution", but in fact, it is to enjoy Qingfu.

The 30,000 new army, which was originally subordinate to Shen Zhiyuan, was "abandoned" in Yanzhou and handed over to the command of Manchu generals such as Lanbai and Jixiha.

This is what Shen Zhiyuan taught Dolbo, and if you want to take it, you must give it first.

At this time, in front of Shen Zhiyuan, Qian Qianyi bent down and fell to the ground.

It's hard to imagine that this old man, who has most of his cut into the ground, has such a soft waist, can bend to such an extent?

Shen Zhiyuan's expression was as usual, but the "little curiosity" in his heart was jumping.

Excessive.

It's too much.

Shen Zhiyuan stretched out his hands and said, "Tsk...... Look at my brain, I wandered without paying attention, and I made Lord Qian bend over for so long...... I hope that Lord Qian will forgive me. ”

Poor Qian Qianyi's whole person was trembling with soreness, and he straightened up with one hand on his waist, and said in his heart, this kid is not a thing, he is more ruthless than Wu Zheng.

But Qian Qianyi was helpless, he didn't come to Qingzhou by order, but he decided to come by himself.

Qian Qianyi knew too well the consequences of going directly to Fengyang.

That's a pit.

The three forces are staggered, although he said that he was behind the imperial court, but there was no one to ask for people, and he wanted money without money, so he rushed into it in a daze, and I was afraid that he couldn't even keep the corpses.

Li Guo will definitely not fall, Qian Qianyi has already had this judgment, it has been almost six years, and those who should have fallen have already fallen, and those who have not descended will naturally not fall even if they die.

What's more, right now, Wu Zheng's Northern Expeditionary Army has won many battles, and its military strength covers almost the entire south of the Yangtze River.

If he really didn't care about the innocent and went to Dingyuan to persuade Li Guo to surrender to the Qing Dynasty, Qian Qianyi would have even seen the end of his beheading at the north gate of Dingyuan City.

And Prince Azig, don't look at his impassioned words at the swearing-in meeting, but in fact, the real reason why he was ordered to go out without lingering on the scenery of the capital is the rank of general of the southern expedition of all the soldiers and horses south of Gyeonggi.

Yes, this "General of the Expedition to the South" is a false title, and fools know that although Azig is vulgar, he is not a fool after all.

Azigeding knows what Fu Lin, Hong, Fan and others think, and the reason why he happily obeys his fate is naturally that he must have a plan, and what he wants is a name.

Reputation is very important.

With the title of "General of Zhengnan" given by the imperial court, then, all military and political affairs south of Gyeonggi are under his jurisdiction.

As for whether Dolbo listens to orders or not, whether Li Guo can surrender or not, these are not important, it really doesn't matter.

What Azig wants is this empty shell rank of general, he has soldiers in his hands, and dozens of provinces south of Gyeonggi have people and land, so he naturally has money, so he is afraid that there will be no soldiers available?

But if the news of Dingyuan reaches Azig's ears, then even if Azig is stupid than a pig, he will realize the intentions of the imperial court.
