Chapter 5 Yang Longyou
Yang Longyou, a native of Guizhou, is an old friend of Chengyi Bofu, I don't know how many things he has done for Chengyi Bofu over the years, and this time he also helped Empress Zhang and Liu Yongxi to contact Donglin and Fushe, so Liu Kongzhao immediately shook Yang Longyou's hand and called his cousin enthusiastically: "Wen Cong, what wind blew you here!" ”
Yang Longwen said straight to the point: "Now the Manchu Dynasty civil and military forces go to ask Zhang Niangniang to get off the boat, but Zhang Niangniang said that she thinks the scenery of Yanziji is good, she wants to stay a few more days, she can only trust Xiao Chengyibo, unless Xiao Chengyi Bo goes over in person, she will not get off the boat!" ”
"The scenery of Yanziji is good" is just an excuse for Empress Zhang to refuse to get off the boat, although Empress Zhang is a little tired of staying on the imperial boat, and now the imperial boat is full of Zhou Zhisheng's sentry soldiers, which is not comfortable at all, but she knows that she must not give in on this principled issue.
It's just that tomorrow is the day when King Fu will ascend the throne and supervise the country, and Queen Zhang's refusal to get off the ship will make King Fu's accession to the throne unjustifiable.
Liu Kongzhao heard this and said very eagerly: "Yongxi, since Zhang Niangniang is invited, you should hurry up and go over with your Uncle Yang!" ”
Liu Yongxi shook his head while smiling: "Uncle Yang, before I got off the boat this time, my mother specially explained to me that unless I have her handwritten holy message, I am not allowed to go back even if Taikang Hou comes to invite me!" ”
This is tantamount to pouring a basin of cold water on Yang Longyou, he can only persuade bitterly: "Yongxi, can you sell your Uncle Yang a face, now waiting for you in the past are not only Shi Kefa, Zhao Zhilong and Han Zanzhou, but your Uncle Ma and Uncle Tian are also waiting over there!" ”
The "Uncle Tian" in his mouth is Ma Shiying, the governor of Fengyang, and the "Uncle Tian" is the former governor of Sichuan, Tian Yang, these two Guizhou people, like Yang Longyou, have a very close relationship with the Chengyi Bofu, and Liu Kongzhao also wrote to the court a few months ago to suggest the restoration of Tian Yang.
Liu Yongxi did not refuse directly, but said to Wang Sun Fan on the side: "Uncle Sun Fan, I really can't agree to this matter, my two battalions of righteous teachers have stayed in Jiangbei, now if I persuade Niang Niang to get off the boat in case there is a mistake, what face will I have to see the two emperors!" ”
In the past two days, Wang Sun Fan has looked at Liu Yongxi more and more like it, and feels that he is better than Liu Kongzhao, a sincere uncle who is honest with Jiang, no matter how he is superior, and he is even thinking about how to further deepen the relationship between the two sides.
Hearing Liu Yongxi say this, Wang Sunfan naturally stood up to help Liu Yongxi speak: "Brother Wencong, I know that you are kind-hearted, but now that Ma Yaocao has not officially entered the cabinet, it is better to put more thought into the major matter of his entry into the cabinet!" ”
Before coming, Yang Longyou had already communicated with Ma Shiying, although he felt that it was a little inappropriate for Liu Kongzhao and Liu Kongyongxi to be in charge of the water and land armies across the river.
However, Empress Zhang was extremely stubborn in entering the city, and the Taikang Hou, Tong Yili, Shi Chaoli, and Zhou Zhisheng around her were all extremely firm "rear parties", and they always fought with the ministers of the southern capital in this matter.
Even if Ma Shiying, Shi Kefa, and Han Zanzhou tried their best, they failed to persuade Empress Zhang to enter the city to participate in tomorrow's enthronement ceremony.
But Empress Zhang didn't say anything to death, saying that she could only trust Liu Yongxi, who was sincere, and would get off the ship immediately as long as Liu Yongxi was sincere.
Therefore, after Ma Shiying and Shi Kefa asked King Fu, they already felt that they could let Liu Yongxi lead a town in Jiangbei, anyway, the four towns in Jiangbei were already big at the end, and it didn't matter if there were more soldiers and horses, not to mention that Liu Yongxi was also a nobleman for many generations, and his loyalty to the court was by no means comparable to Gao Jie and Liu Zeqing.
Yang Longyou conveyed the consensus reached between Ma Shiying and Shi Kefa: "Yongxi, as long as you are willing to go over and persuade Zhang Niangniang, Shi Da Sima has agreed to be a new deputy general soldier in Jiangbei and lead two thousand and a half soldiers!" ”
This topic is not easy for Liu Yongxi to take over, after all, he is only a sincere uncle now, and Liu Yongxi, a sincere uncle who is a sincere uncle, is just forty years old and can't take Liu Yongxi's turn at all.
But Wang Sunfan did not say without scruples: "Yang Wencong, you still don't make this kind of promise, now Ma Yaocao has not officially entered the cabinet, in case of a chicken and egg beating, you Guizhou people can't cry if you want to cry!" ”
Yang Longyou has been running for this for the past few days, and feels that everything has fallen into place: "How is this possible? Shi Da Sima has already talked about it, not to mention that I am certainly a member of the Restoration Society, and Ma Shiying is also a member of the Restoration Society, and the gentlemen of the Restoration Society must not make cannibalistic jokes! ”
Few people know that Ma Shiying was once one of the earliest members of the Restoration Society, Chongzhen three years when he made a preface with a group of Donglin and Restoration Society giants on Yang Longyou's "Landscape Moving Poems", he was even "Brother Ma Shiying Gucao", although he has gradually drifted away from the Donglin Restoration Society over the years and even removed his name directly in many books, but Ma Shiying has always regarded himself as a member of the Restoration Society.
It was precisely with such a relationship that Yang Longyou felt that the bigwigs of the Donglin Restoration Society would not prevent Ma Shiying from entering the cabinet, but Liu Kongzhao still persuaded when he heard this: "Always be careful!" Long You, Ruan Yuanhai and you are in-laws, the most hated by those juniors of the Restoration Society is Ruan Yuanhai, Ma Yaocao If the boat capsizes this time, you Guizhou Township Party will be in big trouble! ”
When it comes to Ruan Dacheng, Yang Longyou also feels a headache, his relationship with Ruan Dacheng is different, Ruan Dacheng's only beloved daughter Ruan Lizhen is promised to his youngest son Yang Zuolin.
Although the children are not yet married, but there is such a relationship, he naturally has to support Ruan Dacheng's recovery, and Ma Shiying Chongzhen's fifteenth year to restore the governor of Fengyang is also Ruan Dacheng's strength, coupled with Ruan Dacheng's decision-making this time, they, the Guizhou Township Party, feel that Ruan Dacheng must be reinstated in public and private.
However, in the eyes of many descendants of Donglin and Fushe, Ruan Dacheng, a eunuch, is not only a person in the reverse case, but also an out-and-out Donglin traitor.
Attacking Ruan Dacheng has become their repertoire, often scolding Ruan Dacheng while admiring Ruan Dacheng's swallow notes, and sometimes even scolding from beginning to end in front of the troupe borrowed by Ruan Dacheng's family.
Yang Longyou, the backbone of the Restoration Society, was already caught between his in-laws and good friends, and now he felt that it was adding fuel to the fire, so he could only smile bitterly: "I don't think Shi Kefa, Lu Daqi and other gentlemen will be so unwise, but no matter what they think, our Guizhou Township Party will not miss this opportunity!" ”
Although on the surface, this is only a question of whether Ma Shiying himself can join the cabinet, but in fact it is related to the long-term future of a large group of Guizhou township parties.
These Guizhou township parties are all officialdom frustrated.
The former Sichuan governor Tian Yang has been out of office for more than ten years and has not been able to recover, and his uncle and father-in-law Yue Qijie has also been in office for many years, and only last year took advantage of Ma Shiying's east wind to have the opportunity to supervise the army in Fengyang.
Even Yang Longyou himself has also been out of office for a year, and now this group of township parties is waiting for Ma Shiying to be able to recover together after entering the cabinet.
Although he is the backbone of the Restoration Society, and his sons are also the backbone of the Restoration Society, they can be humble in everything, but this matter must not be compromised.
Liu Kongzhao laughed: "Ma Yaocao doesn't want to miss this opportunity, that's the best!" ”
