Chapter 123: I Answer the Tribute (2)

On the way to see the emperor, Meng Chong asked Gao pragmatically with a worried face: "Gao Shixuan, this is ...... How do you explain it to Grandpa Banzai? Uh, we're talking about how Cao Gan went to the Fengzhou Chuan Khan Court. ”

"What did Cao Gan do before, and now he naturally goes to do something." Gao replied with a smile.

"Huh?" Meng Chong was taken aback and said in a panic: "That's unspeakable!" Gao Shiyu, Cao Gan accepted 'Zhao'an' half a year ago, but he was appeased in the name of Liu Zi and Liu Gong in the name of the Shuntian Governor, and who of the Beijing officials didn't know that there was a drama of 'Gao Gongzi borrowing his family for righteousness, and Liu Dudu was a god and a giant king'? If you directly tell Grandpa Banzai that Cao Gan is going to run the old business outside the mouth, if it is light, it is a violation of smuggling, and if it is serious, it is a foreign country! ”

Gao Shishi shrugged his shoulders and said, "Otherwise, how can you take the opportunity to break into the Tartars, take advantage of the family dispute in my answer, and say that Dacheng Taiji will take the initiative to go south to my court?" ”

"Uh......" Meng Chong was stunned for a moment, and hesitated: "Gao Shiyu, this Cao Gan was specially sent by you to find out the inside of the enemy and wait for an opportunity to create chaos within him?" ”

Gao pragmatic smiled: "Otherwise? There are Xuanda Governor, Xuanfu Governor, Datong Governor and other dukes, Wu Xuanfu General Soldier, Datong General Soldier, Shanxi General Soldier and other generals, in addition to Jinyiwei has been responsible for the intelligence spy on the Tartars. Why didn't they react at all? It can't be all bought, right? ”

After all, Meng Chong, the eunuch who is the master of ceremonies and eunuchs with palm seals, is only a cook, and his level is really limited, even people like Feng Bao were accidentally deflated in front of Gao Pragmatic, not to mention his Meng palm print? At the moment, I was stopped by Gao Pragmatic's rhetorical question.

His thinking is indeed too easy to be deviated, and he subconsciously follows Gao pragmatic thinking to think: Yes, even if Gao Shiyu is the nephew of Gao Ge Lao, but this military general of Xuanda and Da can't all be bought by him, right? How much the fuck would it cost to get it done? Besides, isn't there still a brocade guard? Jin Yiwei has always been in charge of external intelligence, and they haven't even found any suspicion about Cao Gan's affairs? You know, they are supervised by the East Factory, if they find out, dare not report it?

So Meng Zhangyin finally put his mind at ease, patted his chest, and said with a sigh of relief: "It's okay, it's okay, Gao Shiyu, you can finish it ten million times next time you speak, and this one by one, it's really scared to death for our family." ”

Gao pragmatic snorted, pointed at Meng Chong, smiled and did not speak. Meng Chong's temper is good, and besides, he regards the uncle and nephew of the Gao family as allies in his heart, and he just laughs when he sees it, and he is not angry.

While talking, it didn't take long to arrive at the Wenhua Hall - the emperor usually does not go directly to the cabinet, but to the palace of the Imperial Wenhua Palace, which is relatively close to the cabinet, and waits for the cabinet members to take the initiative to invite them, or simply announce their coming.

This place is a place where Gao Pragmatic Daily "work", and it is too familiar to be more familiar. However, because the prince went out of the pavilion to study in the Wenhua Palace, the main hall has been given to the prince, and the emperor who is very favored by the prince is not behaving properly.

However, as soon as Gao Shishi entered, he found that the emperor did not just summon him, because several scholars in the cabinet, Zhu Xizhong, the Duke of Chengguo, Zhang Rong, the British Gong, and Zhu Xixiao, the Governor of Jinyiwei, were all present - perhaps plus Feng Bao, the commander of Dongchang, who was standing cautiously beside the emperor.

"Wechen is pragmatic and has seen the saint." After half a year of training with the prince, Gao Pragmatic has been able to perform completely freely in front of the emperor, and the cabinet and all the ministers in the palace also know that this kid is "young and old", and he is not surprised to see this.

Long Qing was also used to this, and when he saw this, he just waved his hand and said, "Gao Aiqing doesn't need to be polite, I came to you because I have something to ask you." It just so happens that Chengguo Gong and they live far away, and they have just been summoned to the palace by me, so they don't know the details yet...... Feng Bao, first of all, tell you about the news you got today. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty." Feng Bao responded, stepped forward and said: "In the early morning of last night, Dongchang received a summons from Jinyiwei, saying that my most favored grandson sent Han Naji to lead dozens of subordinates and his wife to send Han Biji under the guidance of Cao Gan, the family of the high attendant, to surrender to the defeated Hubao under the jurisdiction of Pingyuwei. Early this morning, the governor of Datong went to the court to report on the matter. At the same time, Wu Dui, the governor of Xuanfu, said that the army of Alta, which had already sent troops to the west, had abandoned the westward march and returned eastward, and it was expected to return to the Fengzhouchuan area within ten days. ”

Feng Bao said expressionlessly: "There are a few things that need to be considered by the ministers now: first, whether to accept Hannaji's invitation to surrender; Second, if accepted, how to place Hannaji? If you don't accept it, what to do with Hannaji? Third, is it possible for the army of Alta to return eastward to launch an invasion of our Ming Dynasty because of the Hannaji incident, and if so, are the towns of our border army ready or ready to respond to the enemy? ”

This news, because of Fang Fengshi and Wu Dui's report, the cabinet already knew, and Zhu Xizhong because his younger brother Zhu Xixiao was the governor of Jinyi Wei, so he had also learned in advance, only the British public Zhang Rong had been staying at home to rest because of the occasional cold a few days ago, so he only knew about such a thing just now.

However, in fact, the first person present to learn about this was Gao Shishi. He was the only person who knew and made a plan to deal with Hannaji before he reached the pass of Defeathu Fort, and of course the news was sent by Gao Mo and Cao Gan together, and through the already familiar business route, he sent a fine cavalry escort of one man and three horses to send back to Jingshi overnight.

However, for a while, no one rushed to reply.

There was an embarrassing cold scene.

Long Qing frowned slightly and glanced at Li Chunfang.

Who knows that Li Chunfang's eyes and nose are looking at her heart, and she looks like she is thinking carefully about the key points, and it seems that she can't count on it.

Long Qing's gaze subconsciously looked directly towards Gao Gong, who knew that Zhao Zhenji's voice suddenly sounded: "Your Majesty, the old minister has something unclear." ”

Long Qing said: "Mr. Zhao has something to say, please speak." Although Zhao Zhenji is not an emperor like Gao Gong and Zhang Juzheng, he also served as a lecturer on the feast day for a period of time after Longqing ascended the throne, explaining the scriptures and righteousness to the emperor, and now he is the oldest cabinet minister on the gold list, so Longqing called him "sir".

Zhao Zhenji coughed lightly, took a step forward and stood up in the column, and asked Gao Shishi, who was standing in the corner: "Governor Feng mentioned that the grandson of Na Da told Han Naji to arrive at the Defeat Fort Pass under the guidance of the Gao attendant Jiading, and the Cabinet Department has a little doubt about this: Gao Attendant's family is not in Jingshi and not in Xinzheng, why did he run away from the mouth?" How did you get involved with Hannaji, the grandson of Alta? Waiter Gao, should you give an explanation to Your Majesty and the ministers? ”
