Volume 4 The Boat Against the Current Chapter 198 Wishing Fulfilled (II)

Rao is a person in Gao Yucheng, and he also changed color after listening to Tong Guan's words.

It is said that since the previous dynasties, the civil and military affairs have not interfered with each other, but now the Great Song Dynasty is using literature and martial arts, even if he is the captain of the dynasty, the military power in the world is in his hands, and even the power of Tong Guan, the privy envoy, is better than him, but in front of Cai Jing and Cai Taishi, he still only has to bow down and obey orders.

But soon, Gao Yu frowned again: "This is impossible, how could Taishi Cai be interested in a small seven-rank military attaché?" "Yes, if the son is slacking off today, how many court affairs and government affairs are decided by the Taishi's words, how can he have the leisure to consider the official position of such a small person as Sun Tu? The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this was Tong Guan pulling Cai Jing's tiger skin as a banner.

Tong Guan smiled at him: "Then why do you have to embarrass such a low-level military attaché?" Last year, you did everything you could to obstruct it, and now you have done it again. ”

"This ...... Naturally, Captain Ben has my own considerations! Gao Yu immediately raised his face and said, of course he couldn't say the reason in public, even if everyone present already knew it.

Tong Guan shook his head slightly: "Pity the hearts of parents all over the world, didn't you notice that Sun Tu's dispatch this time was a Jiangzhou group practice?" ”

"What does Jiangzhou group training have to do with this......" Gao Yu said this first, and then his mind turned around, and he seemed to think of something: "The ninth prince is now in office in Jiangzhou, could it be that Taishi Cai wants Sun Tu to be used by him?" The more he thought about it, the more he realized that this inference made sense.

Tong Guan also saw the other party's thoughts, and continued: "Just a few days ago, Taishi sent someone to my mansion, and we listened to Sun Tu answer some of his thoughts on training in the local state capital, Captain Gao, are you interested in listening carefully, I can tell you in detail." ”

"No need." Gao Yu interrupted this conversation with a wave of his hand, and a friendly smile had reappeared on his face: "Since this is the person you want to reuse by your Tong Shumi, I, Gao Yu, should sell your face." And this Sun Tu has indeed made several contributions since he was appointed as the head of Kaifeng Mansion, according to the rules of the imperial court, more than 20 thieves can be awarded officials and promoted, and it is not without precedent to promote him from the ninth rank to the seventh rank of martial arts. As he spoke, he picked up the pen again and drew a circle on the letter of appointment, which was regarded as an endorsement of the appointment of the third class court.

Tong Guan didn't see that this order was put aside and was about to be presented to the Son of Heaven, that he smiled and arched his hand at Gao Yu: "Gao Taiwei really lives up to the trust of the Son of Heaven, there are not many people in the world who can do it outside without avoiding enemies, this official admires." ”

"Hehe, as long as he is really capable, not to mention the seven-rank military attaché, if the regiment of a state is trained, he will be the envoy of the capital eunuch, and the court will also give it to him." At this time, Gao Yu had a righteous face, as if he was not the one who wanted to deny Sun Tu's future just now.

The two people at the top of the military attache system of the Great Song Dynasty looked at each other and smiled, and after a few more gossips, Tong Guan turned around and took his leave. It wasn't until he saw him go away that a cronie on the side looked at Gao Yu, whose face had become gloomy again, and said, "Tai Wei, why did you let him succeed?" ”

"What do you know? This is clearly a consensus between him and Taishi Cai, and they both hope that Sun Tu will go to Jiangzhou to help Jiugongzi. I also heard before that Jiu Gongzi has been constrained everywhere since he was appointed as the Taishou of Jiangzhou, and it is difficult to borrow the power of Taishi Cai because he cares about his reputation. This time, Sun Tu went to Jiangzhou to disturb him, but it could help him open up the situation. The only thing I can't figure out is why Taishi Cai would give such a no

Eye-catching little people with chance. Tong Guan frowned deeply, thinking for a long time but not getting the gist after all.

So the villain remembered a past. Last year, when Sun Tu was still in Yuncheng County, Shandong, didn't there be a robbery of Shengchengang? According to the person who sent the property to Beijing later, Sun Tu made a lot of contributions in this matter at the beginning, and he also formed a friendship with a military attache under the account of Liang Zhongshu in the Daimyo Mansion, so didn't it make Taishi Cai leave an impression on him? As a useful person by Gao Yu's side, this naturally wanted to keep in mind some small things that were not usually taken care of by Gao Taiwei, and gave his thoughts at this time.

"I'm afraid nine times out of ten it's because of this." Gao Yu let out a breath of turbidity: "It's really cheap for him." Originally, the official was going to find a chance to get rid of him, anyway, there have been more people who have offended recently, and no one will suspect me. That's it, let's let him be proud for a while. ”

Having said that, Gao Yu knew that in fact, Sun Tu's situation in Jiangzhou would not be too good, after all, the people there didn't even sell the face of the ninth son of the Cai family, would they care about him as a small seven-rank military attaché? And as long as Sun Tu makes the slightest mistake there, the end will only be worse than in the capital.

¥¥¥¥¥

Although Gao Yu had already agreed to this arrangement and reported it to the Son of Heaven, with the current delay in the efficiency of the Great Song Dynasty and the fact that he had entered the month of Layue, it was not so easy for Sun Tu to receive this official edict and appointment as soon as possible.

Fortunately, after a few days, Tong Guan had already called him to his house again and gave him a reassuring pill.

Goodbye this time, Tong Guan's attitude was more cordial and enthusiastic than before, and he looked at Sun Tu with a smile and said: "Qianli, your performance that day was really good, especially the few words in the answer, which were to the point, and did not make the old man feel embarrassed." ”

In fact, after the past few days, Sun Tu has vaguely guessed the reason behind it, but at this time he still pretended to be confused: "The lower officials are stupid, try to ask who can make you embarrassed in the court now......"

"Although the old man is a privy envoy, but in terms of power, it is not enough after all, if it weren't for your ability, I am afraid that it would be impossible for you to be promoted to a seven-rank martial artist this time, let alone arrange a Jiangzhou regimental training dispatch for you."

This time, Sun Tu was really surprised and changed his face, and after his body was shaken, he came back to his senses, and immediately got up and bowed and thanked: "Xiaguan thank you Tong Shuai for cultivating, Xiaguan ......" If he really wants to become a state regiment and master the local township soldiers, then his long-cherished wish will have a starting point.

"Hehe, you don't have to rush to thank me, get up and speak first." Tong Guan was very satisfied with Sun Tu's performance, so he deliberately got up and came to him and helped him up with his own hands: "As long as you go to Jiangzhou to complete the errand and train more soldiers and horses for the imperial court, it will be the greatest reward for the old man." ”

As he spoke, his expression suddenly became solemn again: "Another point, the old man asked you those words that day, in fact, to let you behave in front of Taishi Cai's henchmen, you did a good job, that's why you have today's perfect result, do you know what I mean?" ”

Sun Tu was slightly stunned, and quickly understood: "Xiaguan knows, I will not disappoint Tong Shuai and Taishi Cai." went to Jiangzhou here, and the lower officials did their best to solve problems for the court and Taishi Cai. ”

"Well said, as long as you remember this, the old man can assure you that the seven-rank military attache is just the beginning, you are still young, maybe when you will be able to rise to the top and sit

to the old man's current position. Tong Guan said, patting Sun Tu's shoulder vigorously as encouragement.

Sun Tu immediately bowed down and thanked him gratefully, looking grateful, and his liver and brain were smeared. But in fact, he sneered in his heart, don't look at his young age, he has jumped from a nine-rank official to a seven-rank official, but in fact, this is not a miracle in the Great Song Dynasty army, when it comes to the border battlefield, such overpromotions are frequent, as long as he makes contributions in the battle with the Liao or Xixia people, he is still a pawn today, and he can become a military attache of six or seven grades or even higher tomorrow.

But these people are still powerless, and if they make a small mistake in one negligence, they will be defeated again and become nothing. As for wanting to be a privy envoy for such a high position, it is even more wishful thinking, in the more than 100 years since the Great Song Dynasty, except for the founding of the country, Di Qing has become a privy deputy envoy, and he has always been suppressed and ridiculed by Han Qi, and he has lived like a year.

As a court that treats military generals as tools, but does not have any trust at all, how could the Great Song Dynasty let a military general like him really have a chance to stand out? Unless it is an existence like Tong Guan, who is not a man at all, has no worries, and meets an emperor like Zhao Ji who is not very careful, he will be allowed to serve as a privy envoy, but even so, there is still an extra Taiwei Gao Yu on his head.

Of course, all this is too far from Sun Tu, what he has to do at this time is to go to Jiangzhou after accepting the order, and then use it as a knife held by Cai Jing or Tong Guan to help them eradicate dissidents!

Sun Tu, who knew his fate well, although he looked moved at this time, he already had a plan in his heart, so when Tong Guan asked him if he had any other ideas, he took the opportunity to put forward a request to bring Lu Zhishen, Yang Zhi and others into the army to help him gain a foothold in Jiangzhou.

In fact, for these team members who defeated the Liao people that day, Tong Guan also intended to transfer them to the army. However, after that, he was strictly pushed back by those clear streams of righteousness in the court, which made him feel uncomfortable. Now that Sun Tu put forward this idea, he simply made a favor and nodded in agreement: "These old men can help arrange it, and they will serve as your generals in the third class of Jiupin, and go to Jiangzhou with you." However, the monk named Lu Zhishen has to be vulgar, and the imperial court can't use a monk as a military attaché, right? ”

Sun Tu was naturally overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly thanked him again.

He thought that it would be very difficult to get a background for Lu Zhishen and them, after all, he had also obtained this military attache status through the shooting test of the palace before, but now it seems that things are far less difficult than he thought.

In fact, he did underestimate some of the methods in the court of the Great Song Dynasty today, as Tong Guan, it is still very easy to get the third class court to give a few sets of official edicts, as long as the person is not in Tokyo City, those civil officials cannot be investigated. As for Sun Tu, it was because Tong Guan wanted to use him, so he would let him go up step by step, and such benefits would always pay off in the future.

With Tong Guan's confession, Sun Tu knew that he had finally cleaved the waves in this countercurrent, and he would soon be able to leave Tokyo with a new identity and go to Jiangzhou to take up his post!
