Yang Bo attached great importance to this staff member brought from his hometown, and knew that this staff member would never be untargeted, so he asked seriously with a tea cup: "Mr. Jin, how do you say this?" ”

The news of the good news is not a secret, it has already spread in the capital, and it has quickly become the hottest topic nowadays.

"This is great news, and it should be revealed!"

"Come, come, let's get drunk tonight!"

"Thousands of heads of the Japanese were killed, countless people drowned, and the southeast Japanese suffered from malignant tumors!"

……

Before the Shuntianfu test, the scholars in the capital liked to be in groups of three or five on weekdays, and today they have such a legitimate name, but they are overcrowded in various restaurants or green buildings in the capital, and they have celebrated these two great victories.

It's just a few glasses of wine, but everyone can't help but start commenting on the battle exploits.

"The southeast plague can be eradicated, one is due to Tan Lun, the governor of Fujian, and the other is due to Wu Guifang, the governor of Liangguang!"

"Huh...... Tan Lun has returned to his hometown to continue to guard filial piety since he received Fuxinghua City last year, and the current governor of Fujian is Wang Daokun of the Xu Party! ”

"Wang Daokun and Wu Guifang have merits, but they are close to each other before they go to the local office, if it is about the merit of suppressing the Japanese, it should be the former governor of Zhejiang, Hu Zongxian!"

……

The scholars carefully examined the situation of the Japanese invaders, but found that the problem of the Japanese invaders was effectively solved, but it began with Hu Zongxian, and now the Fujian general Qi Jiguang and the Guangdong general Yu Dayou, who have made great contributions, are all from Hu Zongxian's former command.

"If it weren't for the imperial court capturing Hu Zongxian to Beijing and Fujian Xinghua City being besieged, Zhejiang would definitely send troops to help, instead of letting those would-be robbers design to capture Xinghua City!" One of the scholars extended the topic, and looked resentful as he turned over the old accounts.

The table suddenly slammed, and a scholar slammed his fist on the table and said: "In my opinion, because the imperial court should restore Hu Zongxian, a military talent, he will preside over the border defense in the north!" ”

On this quiet night at the end of February, with the arrival of two good news from Guangdong and Fujian, a dark wave was already rising in the capital, and some people even took the opportunity to propose that Hu Zongxian be appointed.

In the Nanjing incident, Lu Fengyi impeached Hu Zongxian on ten major charges such as embezzlement of military salaries and excessive taxation, and Jiajing ordered Hu Zongxian to be escorted to Beijing, but ordered Hu Zongxian to return to his hometown and live idle.

Idle, this is to prove that Hu Zongxian is innocent and has not been removed from office. At the end of last year, the Mongolian soldiers came to Beijing, which seemed to be yesterday, and many scholars already remembered Hu Zongxian.

However, I don't know whether to support Hu Zongxian, the former "governor of the seven provinces", or just to be indignant at the military inaction in the north of the current dynasty, and the voice of reviving Hu Zongxian became stronger and stronger.

Mr. Jin was drinking in the lobby of the Qinglou tonight, and he didn't take these scholars seriously at first, but he slowly noticed that the wind was a little out of control, so he hurried back.

Mr. Jin said everything Qinglou heard, and then said with a solemn face: "Dong Weng, once the imperial court rewards Guangdong and Fujian, it will definitely be used by people with intentions. Especially last year, when the Tartars were killed in Beijing, I am afraid that they will be turned out by people with hearts, so as to build momentum for Hu Zongxian's comeback! ”

As an official in the Ming Dynasty, not only is the position of the first assistant remembered, but the secretary of the military department is also eyed by all forces. In addition to Jiangdong, the governor of Xuanda, who has the title of secretary of the Ministry of War, Hu Zongxian, who is now living at home, is the biggest threat to Yang Bo.

Although Yang Bo was deeply respected by the emperor, especially during his tenure as the governor of the border pass, he was always able to block the Mongolian cavalry from moving south, but he did not seem to be able to show too dazzling military achievements, and even the Mongolian cavalry appeared near the capital again last year.

On the other hand, Hu Zongxian, who lived at home, killed the biggest pirate leaders Wang Zhi and Xu Hai in the past, and reversed the situation of the Ming Dynasty being beaten passively in one fell swoop, forcing the Japanese to flee from the wealthy Nanzhili and Zhejiang.

Although Hu Zongxian was reappointed by the imperial court, it was absolutely impossible to directly replace him Yang Bo, but with Hu Zongxian's military talent and prestige, he Yang Bo was afraid that he would not be able to stay in the position of the secretary of the military department for too long.

Yang Bo has never spied on Hu Zongxian, if it weren't for Yan Song's sudden downfall, the military secretary who was recalled to the capital would not be him Yang Bo, but the Hu Ruzhen who had made great achievements.

Yang Bo took a big sip of the tea that had cooled, immediately squinted his eyes and said firmly: "This remark is really hateful, who is behind the scenes and wants to revive Hu Zongxian?" ”

"According to the old man's opinion, I am afraid that it is not Dong Fen or Wu Shan who are making small moves behind their backs, but a will put forward by the sudden rise of these scholars, and Hu Zongxian has indeed won the hearts of the people!" Mr. Chop seemed helpless to say a fact, and then changed his words and said: "For today's plan, in addition to calming down public opinion in the capital, it is to suppress the military exploits of Fujian and Guangdong, and not let Dong Fen and Wushan have a chance!" ”

"If you don't reward this time, I'm afraid the cabinet won't agree!" Yang Bo had already decided to suppress these two exploits in his heart, and said worriedly.

Mr. Jin sat down in the chair next to him, but said optimistically on his face: "The current cabinet is actually Xu Jie's cabinet alone, as long as Xu Jie's head agrees!" ”

Yang Bo put down the teacup gently, his brows furrowed tightly, but he didn't want to ask Xu Jie for help again, which made people mistakenly think that he Yang Bo had become Xu Jie's younger brother.

Mr. Jin saw through his thoughts at a glance, and persuaded him: "Dong Weng, although we have less contact with Xu Jie's side in the salt matter, this relationship cannot be broken!" Ji Liao had an accident last year, thanks to Xu Jie's help to take care of it, otherwise Dong Weng would be in trouble! The trouble now is not smaller than last year, and Dong Weng will ask Xu Ge Lao again, which will only deepen the relationship between the two families! ”

"These two feats are not small, if you want to suppress them, you have to have a reason, right?" Yang Bo was already convinced, but he said with a sad look on his face.

At present, the Ming Dynasty is strong and weak, and it is not a complicated thing to suppress the military generals' military exploits.

Not to mention, in the past, Yu Dayou severely injured Annan Fan Ziyi in Lianzhou Mansion, Guangdong, and beheaded 1,200 people, but this battle achievement was gently suppressed by Yan Song, and only symbolically rewarded Yu Dayou with fifty taels of silver.

It's just that Yang Bo is not Yan Song after all, even if he wants to suppress it, in addition to getting Xu Jie's support, he also has to come up with a suitable reason.

Mr. Jin was born in a salt merchant's business, and his eyes always revealed the essence of light, and at this time, Zhizhu seemed to be holding the ground and said: "Dong Weng, the old man has already thought about it for you, which can not only allow you to explain to the court, but also calm down this public opinion!" ”

When Yang Bo heard this, his eyes immediately lit up slightly.
