294. February 27, 2nd year Sunny and chaotic crumpled the white clouds
In the court, everyone's expressions were very serious, the rebellion in the south was now uncontrollable, the forty-two states were completely cut off, and now they didn't even know who was the initiator.
The atmosphere was depressing, Zhao Xing reprimanded the ministers above, but the people below didn't even have the power to refute.
"In July last year, Huizhou reported that it was privately hoarding official grain, why didn't it pursue it anymore? Where is the Goshidai? ”
Doctor Yu Shi stepped forward tremblingly: "I don't know...... This matter is handled by the Criminal Department. ”
"Criminal Department!" Zhao Xingyi pointed to the Shangshu of the Criminal Department: "Do you have anything to say?" ”
Shangshu of the Criminal Department was pale, he really didn't know that this matter would develop to this point, after the Huizhou newspaper came up at that time, he didn't take it too seriously, and the big households were just stockpiling grain. Later, Shun Teng checked some of them, but vaguely felt that it would be inappropriate to investigate again, so the criminal department temporarily suppressed the case.
But they forgot about it...... It doesn't matter if you forget this, the people who are related to this line are reversed from the history of the assassin to Yu Hou.
He fell to his knees, not daring to make a sound.
"Cadaver vegetarian meal!" Zhao Xing slapped the table violently: "If it weren't for the East Window incident, how many things would you have hidden from me?" keeps saying that it is for the sake of the country, but what you wait for is tantamount to giving away the great country to others! ”
No one can resist this big hat buttoned down, this is a mutiny, a rebellion! The fact that the Criminal Department did not pursue the investigation even though it had already obtained clues was regarded as complicity.
At this time, the criminal department Shangshu, who was sitting on pins and needles during this period of time, suddenly became paralyzed, and he couldn't come back to his senses for a long time.
This has to be put on other things, and the ministers must be swarming to reason and plead, but today's matter is extremely special, and no one dares to be this bird.
Not to mention anything else, the position of the criminal department Shangshu will definitely not be saved, and a large number of people will follow him if he is implicated, but even Zhao Xiang can only sigh silently and no longer look at the criminal department Shangshu.
"Where is the Imperial City Division!?"
Yan Shu walked out from behind at this time, bowed down and said: "Yan Shu, the deputy commander of the Imperial City Division, because the chief officer Song Beiyun has not yet returned to quell the rebellion, and now the affairs of the Imperial City Division will be handled by me. ”
"Okay, check! Thoroughly investigate the Criminal Department! ”
As soon as the ministers heard this, they exploded with a buzz. Even Zhao Xiang's expression became strange, didn't Zhao Xuan know that this Yan Shu was his son-in-law? And he let him do such a thing?
Although it is just an order, the political meaning of this is too interesting, there are two meanings here, one is that the Imperial City Division has now been given the function of a thorough investigation, although there is no serious written charter, but the emperor Chrysostom jade law, only one sentence is enough.
This function is not terrifying, you can check the Criminal Department today, you can check the Household Department tomorrow, and you can check the Imperial Historical Observatory in a few days, which invisibly puts a shackle on the hundred officials.
Who wants to have shackles on them? But how to refute it now? Can't check? The Criminal Department is suspected of harboring and plotting rebellion, who dares to say that it can't be investigated? But as long as it sets a precedent, then the Imperial City Division will become an inconspicuous little yamen, and it will become a special case of "jumping out of the Three Realms and not in the Five Elements", and become a sharp blade in the hands of the imperial power.
And the second meaning here is also very interesting, Yan Shu is the deputy envoy of the Imperial City Division, and he went to the Imperial City Division to use this hot yamen as a springboard, and secondly, to carry out the task of suppressing and monitoring Song Beiyun for his father-in-law. And who in the Manchu Dynasty doesn't know that this Yan Shu is Zhao Xiang's "own family"?
If this responsibility is given to Song Beiyun, they can impeach, suppress and even hinder everywhere, but what should Yan Shu do? He was going to do something after receiving the emperor's order, suppressing him would be bad for his career, Zhao Xiang would not agree, but if he didn't suppress him, wouldn't he become the second Song Beiyun?
At this moment, even Zhao Xiang didn't know what to do, so he could only step forward and say: "Official, the deputy commander of the Imperial City Division is still young, and I am afraid that he will not be able to handle this time." ”
"Zhao Xiang's words are wrong." Zhao Xing shook his head and said: "Yan Shu is already a well-known genius in the world, known for his resourcefulness, shrewdness and ability, he is sharp in thinking, transparent and practiced, such trivial things are not a problem, and there is no one else in the court to investigate this matter, that Song Beiyun, who does not know whether he is alive or dead, went to the south to quell the rebellion, and he does not know whether he is alive or dead. ”
"That ......"
Zhao Xiang was not very convinced, but now he has nothing to say, this trick is so beautiful, so beautiful that he kills three birds with one stone. This is the first time in this court, Zhao Xiang suffered Zhao Xing's loss but was helpless.
"Yan Shu, why don't you take the order?"
"Commandment." Yan Shu stepped forward and clasped his fists towards Zhao Xing: "The minister will temporarily carry out this matter on behalf of Lord Song, and when he returns, it will be handed over to him." ”
Hearing him mention Song Beiyun, most of the people in the court were laughing at it in their hearts, that self-incompetent thing, now I am afraid that it has been cut off and hung on the city gate, just like what he loves to do the most, in the end, it is the way of heaven and good reincarnation, and the wicked will eventually suffer evil retribution.
And at this moment, a fast horse rushed into Jinling City, with a letter flag behind him, swaggering all the way.
Along the way, he also shouted loudly: "Changsha County, Jiujiang County victory!" Changsha County and Jiujiang County are victorious! ”
When passing by the Dingguo Mansion, Zuo Rou was holding a rice bowl at the door looking forward to the stars and the moon and looking forward to the messenger, after hearing the fast Malay report, she put down the bowl and rushed out.
But her speed is still a step slower, this kind of good news must be sent to the palace as soon as possible, and when Zuo Rou arrives, the daylilies are cold.
"Hmph......" Zuo Rou stood at the door of the Privy Council and stomped her feet angrily: "It's really fast." ”
And at this moment, a clerk in the Privy Council came out, and as soon as he saw Zuo Rou, he immediately turned around and walked inside.
"You! Wait a minute! ”
Zuo Rou rushed up and grabbed the man's neck by the collar: "Run?" Run away when you see me? What a guts! ”
"Miss, don't ask me again, the military aircraft is heavy, if I say it, my head will not be protected."
This is from the bottom of my heart to fear Zuo Rou, this woman is really terrible, she will squat at the door of the Privy Council every day these days, just walk around, as long as there is a horse stopped in front of the Privy Council, she will rush up and stand next to eavesdropping.
Drive away? Crazy? This is the daughter of Dingguo Gong, who is the privy envoy of the Privy Council...... This is the eldest daughter, drive her away?
"Tell me, what's on the good news?"
"Isn't it the great victory of Changsha and Jiujiang, and nothing else."
"Don't believe it! These reports are all military reports, and there are details, so tell me about it! ”
The clerk knelt down with a pout: "Kill me...... It is better to die at your hands than to die in the prison of the Imperial City Division. ”
"Imperial Division? That's fine, the Imperial City Division is all my ......"
Before she could finish her sentence, she was interrupted from behind by a hand, and when she turned around, she found Qiaoyun standing there crying and laughing, with a strange expression: "Miss, go back...... He's written to you, and there's everything in it. ”
"Good, good...... Walk! ”
At that moment just now, Qiao Yun's heart was about to pop out of his throat, for fear that Zuo Rou would say the sentence "The Imperial City Division is all my people".
If this really let her say it, the speaker has no intention of listening, and she will be unlucky to spread it, probably because she has a good relationship with Zhao, but in Song Beiyun's sentence - "A companion is like a tiger", this kind of thing can't be messed up, not to mention that in this sensitive period, Yushitai is looking for faults everywhere, and others say that it doesn't matter, the daughter of the country's family can't help but make people think about it a little more.
Zuo Rou didn't realize this at all, and she happily followed Qiaoyun back to the mansion. At the same time, the good news also reached the palace.
"Official, good news!"
"Report!"
This exaggerated "newspaper" was arranged by Zhao Xing a long time ago, he waited for the person who reported the news to come, and then shouted with a handsome face, and then sat down calmly and listened, showing the emperor's appearance.
"Changsha County and Jiujiang County have won a great victory! Song Beiyun killed more than 2,200 enemies in Changsha County, captured more than 37,740 rebels, and banned a total of more than 37,740 people. The great victory of Jiujiang County of the Dingguo Public Department! 24,400 enemies were killed, more than 22,200 rebels were captured, and more than 22,200 people were imprisoned. Dingguo Justice intends to rush to the aid of Nanchang County. ”
"Good!"
Zhao Xing stroked his palms and laughed: "Zhuang, I will be the prince of the country!" ”
After speaking, a puzzled expression appeared on his face: "Then how did Song Beiyunbu take two cities in a row?" Tell me more about it. ”
Zhao Xuan now saw the stunned appearance of the hundreds of officials in the audience, and his heart blossomed.
"Look at their uninformed appearance," Zhao Xin was so disdainful, but he forgot that when he received superstition, he rolled directly in the upper study.
The details of how Song Beiyun captured Nanchang and how he led his troops to conquer Changsha City were announced in the main hall. Not to mention, the effect is really good, after listening to the full hall of civil and military affairs, he became more and more stunned, and the appearance on his face was varied.
To be honest, Song Beiyun didn't feel anything when he did it, and it was over anyway. But when it was reviewed afterwards, it was quite shocking, and the shock was no less than leading 3,000 people to fight with 200,000 Xiongnu horses.
From how to discover the rebellion, to how to contact the rebels in the city, and finally how to capture Nanchang City with less than 3,000 people, and finally capture Nanchang County. Then how to divide the troops into two sections, and when the rear section was deadlocked, the forward troops deceived the Changsha gate.
Wonderful, exciting! Even Zhao Xing, who listened to the replay, unconsciously felt his blood boiling, and he couldn't wait to go into battle in person.
"When it was dispatched, Song Beiyunbu was thrown on the ground to rest, and it was scheduled that the army would be set up in six days and go to Yongzhou."
Before the audience could react to the shock, they were all stunned when they heard that they were going to Yongzhou.
Who is rebelling? Where have you heard of counterinsurgency generals fighting like this? All the way like a torrent, it rushed over with mud and sand...... And now it seems that Dingguogong's steady and steady approach seems to be not so surprising.
"Song Beiyun Department, Xiang, Ban plus the conscription of people, more than 100,000 people."
"Multi-...... How much? Zhao Xuan was stunned, this was something new, he hadn't heard it: "You say it again." ”
"More than 130,000 people from the box, ban, and conscription of the people and the scattered garrisons around them are heading to Yongzhou."
Zhao Xuan hurriedly adjusted his state: "What? More and more hits? ”
