Chapter 373: Jingzhong (I)
The southeast seems to be calm, but in fact, the undercurrent is turbulent, the mountain rain is about to come, and the wind is full of buildings, while the capital presents a situation of hello, hello, hello, everyone.
In fact, this dynamic...... Everyone is no stranger, before the southeast rebellion, before Li Mo's sudden rise of the army, it was like this, Yan Dang controlled the situation and covered the sky with one hand, and Xu Jie struggled to support and shrank his head as a turtle.
Suiyuan, a place that has spread its reputation all over the capital in the past six months, is not silent after Qian Yuan left Beijing, but has become more lively.
The scholars all over the world know that Xu Wei is a high eight buckets, the southeast scholars all know that Xu Wei's fate is bumpy, the Shaoxing scholars all know that Xu Wei has a strange and stubborn temperament, and the Shanyin scholars all know that Xu Wei dislikes others to visit him the most.
Xu Wei admitted the other three points, but the last one ...... It's true that I didn't like friends to come to the door before, no rut, I am shy and have no money in my pocket, but I want to be face-saving again!
But now it's different, Qian Yuan entrusted Suiyuan to Xu Wei...... It's definitely a big mistake, this guy calls friends every day, and is elated!
Can you not be elated?
It's cool that you don't have to spend money on your own!
Not to mention Zhu Dashou, Tao Dalin, Sun Yan, these scholars of the Hanlin Academy, who go around almost every day, anyway, it is not far and it is also on the way, even Sun Ling, Wu Dui, Chen Younian and others are ordering takeout at noon now...... None of them were sent by the hotel, but from the small kitchen of the garden, and the colleagues were all dying.
Sun Ling once mentioned this matter in a letter to Qian Yuan in a funny way, but Qian Yuan was helpless...... In fact, he knew in his heart that Xu Wei was using this way to try to ensure the centripetal force of Suiyuan Shizi, but this way was not necessarily good, but it was a bit simple.
In this regard, Qian Zheng and his wife, who were in the same house as Suiyuan...... Lu is a little unhappy, and he can spend money too much, Qian Zheng doesn't care, anyway, that one will make money, and the restaurant alone will collect money every day.
The sky was already bright, after all, it was summer, Qian Zheng washed up and came to the side hall, and Lu and his little daughter were waiting for breakfast together.
Today, both of them are not very good-looking.
"It's a bit excessive." Lu muttered: "Even if you pour dirty water on Yuan'er, you are not afraid of offending the Xu family." β
Qian Zheng shook his head helplessly, "Don't go to the door in the future." β
"Even if the concubines don't go, they won't talk about it behind their backs?" The Lu family raised his eyebrows, "The one in the Xu family is also a nest!" β
Qian Zheng was silent, a few days ago, the Lu family heard the female dependents talking about something, a few days ago, there was news from the Xu Mansion that they wanted to choose a son-in-law for Xu Jie's only daughter, but somehow, it was suddenly rumored that the fourth lady of the Xu family had already taken a fancy to Qian Yuan, and would rather cut her hair than marry someone else......
This is disgusting people, not only disgusting Xufu, but also disgusting the Qian family, aunts and nieces fighting for sons-in-law...... This is the biggest gossip in the capital recently.
After a simple meal, Qian Zheng went out, and happened to bump into Xu Wei outside the gate, and the two set off together, one went to the General Administration Department, and the other went to Xiyuan, and Xu Wei was on duty in Xiyuan today.
"It's been early in the day." Li Chunfang, who had a fluttering beard, smiled and walked into the door, "Is there a magic word?" β
"Shilu Gong." Xu Wei was quite polite to Li Chunfang, after all, he was the deputy examiner who would take the exam, "Clever hands, where are there so many wonderful sentences." β
It was Yuan Wei who followed into the door, sitting on the side with a cold face, Xu Wei ignored it, and the two of them tore their faces two months ago.
Xu Wei accused Yuan Wei of carelessness in a green word in front of Emperor Jiajing, Yuan Wei troubled Xu Wei in the Hanlin Academy the next day, the two scolded in front of dozens of Hanlin colleagues, Xu Wei, who had been ravaged by Qian Yuan, scolded Yuan Wei so red that he almost didn't catch his breath.
The last to enter the door was Guo Pu, this is an honest man, he has always walked alone, in fact, he is the most senior among the people who are on duty in Xiyuan to write Qingci for Jiajing, Jiajing fourteen years of Jinshi, is the same year of Qian Zheng.
First picked up the pen and wrote down a green word, a eunuch received it and sent it to Wanshou Palace, and the four of them chatted casually while waiting, and soon Yuan Wei began to look for trouble, and mentioned the rumors of Qian Yuan and Miss Xu Si in the small talk with Guo Pu.
Xu Wei drank tea expressionlessly, mocking in his heart, although there was no evidence, he could be sure that this rumor should be the first to start from His Majesty's side, because the rumor first appeared in Xiyuan.
Well, it's actually true, the scene a few months ago made Emperor Jiajing talk about it to this day, and he talked about it with Huang Jin in a casual chat, but somehow it got out. Good
Soon, the news came, and it was Xu Wei again.
Li Chunfang and Guo Pu were quite calm, but Yuan Wei was already angry, and he hadn't been hired for nearly a month.
When Xu Wei arrived at the apse of Wanshou Palace, it happened that Lu Bing, the commander of the Jinyi Guard, was also there.
"In this way, I replied that I retired from the army before Yang Bo went to work." Emperor Jiajing hesitated, pondered for a moment and said: "Although I have no military exploits, but I am wearing filial piety clothes to contribute to the country, I will think about it again." β
Xu Wei was a smart man, and immediately congratulated: "Your Majesty, but the siege of Datong has been resolved?" β
"yes, it's finally gone." Emperor Jiajing sighed.
The right guard of Datong has been besieged for half a year, and the general army of Datong, the general army of Xuanfu, and the governor of Xuanda have no solution.
Emperor Jiajing finally chose to let Yang Bo recover his feelings, and the governors of Xuanfu, Datong and Shanxi military affairs, but when Yang Bo was still on his way to his post, Jiangdong, the squire of the Ministry of War, suddenly sent troops to take over the siege of Datong.
So, next, how to settle Yang Bo has become a problem, after all, it is a revenge, and now that the war is over, should he go back and continue to keep filial piety?
If you don't go back to keep filial piety, then Yang Boding is the secretary of the military department before worrying, and it stands to reason that he should be reappointed to the post of Da Sima, and it just so happens that this position is empty.
But what about Jiangdong, the soldier who has just made a meritorious service?
Emperor Jiajing rubbed his eyebrows, he really had a headache, unlike his grandson Wanli, although Emperor Jiajing didn't see the ministers, he was really going to do things.
Huang Jin persuaded on the side: "Emperor, after all, it's a good thing, seeing that the north side is quiet, and the south side is quiet again, the emperor will be at ease." β
Emperor Jiajing rubbed his eyebrows and hands for a moment, and looked up at Lu Bing, "How is the southeast?" β
"The training of the new army is quite effective, and Hu Zongxian, the governor of Zhejiang, is deploying troops, and the governor's palace is temporarily moved to Shaoxing Mansion." Lu Bing paused and hesitated: "Hu Zongxian wrote to ask for the transfer of ordnance from the guards in Huguang, Shandong, and Xuzhou, and he still wanted to ......."
"I also want to intercept the Jiangnan salt tax." Emperor Jiajing dropped the fold in his hand, "But there is no movement now." β
"Yes."
"Know why?" Emperor Jiajing seemed to be smiling.
Lu Bing's heart tightened, and he nodded: "Nanjing Jinyi Wei came to report that Hu Zongxian copied a wealthy merchant in Hangzhou Mansion in the name of Tongwei, and obtained a lot of silver, which was used as military resources. β
"Nonsense, there are so many officials in Zhejiang and no one has jumped out?" Emperor Jiajing turned his head to look at Xu Wei, "Can there be impeachment in the imperial history?" β
This sentence does not ask Lu Bing but Xu Wei, which seems to be a bull's head and a horse's mouth, but in fact it has a deep meaning.
Because Xu Wei lives in Suiyuan.
In the Beijing inspection a few months ago, the left general secretary of the general political department was dismissed because of Li Mo's protΓ©gΓ©, and the former general political secretary left senator Qian Zheng was promoted to the left general government, and the right general political secretary returned to his hometown a month ago, and the general political envoy was Yan Dang, but he was old and sick, except for matters related to the Yan party, they were handed over to Qian Zheng.
Lu Bing swept Xu Wei out of the corner of his eyes, and he felt that there was another layer of meaning in this sentence, because he knew that in this matter, Qian Yuan was involved.
"Whether there is impeachment or not, the minister does not know." Xu Wei unhurriedly took out a letter from his sleeve and said with a smile: "However, Zhancai wrote a letter and said that His Majesty knew about it." β
"Informed?" Emperor Jiajing inexplicably motioned to Huang Jin to take the letter, opened it and read a few lines, "This is a letter to Wen Chang, tsk, this word...... If it weren't for the township examination and the copying papers, I wouldn't have been able to get into the Jinshi in this life......"
In the middle of his words, Emperor Jiajing suddenly stopped, and the scene of the young man kneeling in front of him last year and falling down with big tears came to his mind.
