025: Scholars are not enough
"General."
Qin Yue turned his car sideways and firmly sealed the opponent's old handsome.
The opponent looked at the dead chess and said impatiently: "Messing around, you are doing a good thing like a barbarian fight." ”
Qin Yue said in a sullen voice: "I was originally a martial artist, and the brutal collision is my true color, can I still come?" ”
"One more game."
Playing chess with him is Zheng Haoqian, a general scholar, who is thin, slightly bearded, and has a gentle temperament. Playing chess is like swallowing water warmly, not in a hurry or dry, and there are few strange tricks, I like to take my time step by step.
Qin Yue's chess strength is not as good as him, after losing a few games, he found that the opponent has a soft temperament, cherishes feathers, and is reluctant to meet a pair, Qin Yue will attack this point, and if he has the opportunity, he will put on a life-and-death posture, forcing the opponent to make a faint move, but he often has two or three winning faces.
Guo Rong put down the shelf of the Ninety-Five Supreme Emperor, and ate Qin Yue and Jiayin with gratitude for a full meal, but did not take back the punishment for them, and still worked as a coolie in the forage field.
Qin Yue also knew that the Shengshang Exit had become a constitution, how could he change it as soon as possible, and he would stay in the forage field in a down-to-earth manner.
As a result, I saw an unlucky guy who was even more breathless than him - Zheng Haoqian, a general secretary.
Important members of the emperor's secretarial team were assigned to this stockyard.
Although Zheng Haoqian said that he was unlucky, after all, the official body is still there, so he doesn't have to do manual work, and he is idle and bored, and he only plays a chess game to defend himself.
With Qin Yue, a chess friend, life is always happier, the two of them play chess when they are free, and they also play chess when they don't have time, anyway, the rough work of cutting grass, Jia Yin can do it alone, and Qin Yue has free time.
After three or four days in a row, he became familiar with it, and Qin Yue understood why this guy was demoted.
However, when the army first started, Zhao Chao, the commander of the control crane, was very dissatisfied with Guo Rong's reckless tactics, and privately said to Zheng Haoqian that the Han army and the Liao State alliance were strong, and our army should gather heavy troops to attack steadily. Zheng Haoqian thought it made sense, so he made a statement to the saint.
How do you know that Guo Rong was furious, and immediately dismissed Zhao Chao and sent him to prison, Zheng Haoqian naturally followed the bad luck, although he did not resign, but he was demoted to the forage field to guard the forage.
Scold!
When playing chess, I always gossip, which is probably the general trend of the world, people's livelihood and economy.
Zheng Haoqian is a typical literati, good teacher, good at expressing opinions, as long as the questions are asked appropriately and scratching the itch, it doesn't matter whether it is confidential or not, but it makes Qin Yue greatly increase his knowledge and have a better understanding of the social environment and national affairs.
The forage is more out and less in, and the piles are empty, Guo Rong personally said that there will be new grain and grass in three days, but it has arrived, but it is a drop in the bucket, Jia Yin has no work to do after a few days, and he squats on the side to watch the game of chess if he has nothing to do.
"Zheng Sheren, I saw a dead man in a purple robe pulled out in a car in the morning, they said that it was Wang Dezhong, a senior official from the Northern Han Dynasty, how did he die in our military camp?"
Zheng Haoqian's hand shook, and the chess pieces he was playing with in his hand were scattered on the ground, and after picking them up, he made a faint move, and he was not in a state at all.
"What's the matter, Zheng Sheren?"
"Ugh." Zheng Haoqian shook his head, stunned for a long time, and Fang laughed self-deprecatingly: "It seems that this matter is about to come to an end." ”
Qin Yue was surprised: "But somehow? ”
"The king you saw was a famous Confucian, although he was an official in the pseudo-Han Dynasty, but the saint was quite respectful, and he gave him a purple robe and jade belt the day before yesterday, and wanted to persuade him to return to his heart......"
"Then why is it erected today?"
"Because he concealed the situation of the Liao army's coming to help, my fierce general Shi Yanchao was killed on the spot, and the saint was angry, and this became the result. Alas......"
Qin Yue put down the chess pieces in his hand and asked, "He killed him, what are you worried about?" ”
Zheng Haoqian smiled bitterly: "If the front line is smooth, the saint is happy, and he can still be on an errand smoothly after returning to Beijing, but now that the grain and grass are insufficient, and the enemy army has reinforcements, this Jinyang City may be difficult to capture." If the army returns in vain, it will be the next gas barrel. ”
Qin Yue said: "Zheng Sheren is too worried, you are a general person, it is your duty to make suggestions, why worry about this, you see that although you are here, you are also very leisurely, and there are a lot of articles." ”
Zheng Haoqian shook his head and said: "Alas, there are as many as sixteen people in the position of Tongshi, there are not many more, and there are many less, but there is still a large family to support, if it is a resignation for the people, I really don't know what to do." ”
Qin Yue has had a lot of contact with him in the past few days, and he knows that his frugal life is simple, and the single clothes inside have been patched several times, and he is also a gentle and honest nerd. I couldn't bear to see his sad face, thought about it, and said:
"Since Zheng Sheren is worried because of the advice, it is better to give another advice to consolidate the sacred heart, it is better than being in a hurry here."
"I want to, but at the moment, I have nothing to say, and I have nothing to offer."
Qin Yue asked, "I don't know anything about it, please ask Zheng Sheren for advice." ”
"Please."
"This battle has only been fought for a long time, why is there a shortage of food and grass?"
Zheng Haoqian sighed and said: "The Central Plains has been ravaged by war, the people's livelihood is miserable, the past two years have only been slightly better, a few years ago out of the suburbs of Beijing, as far as the eye can see, the fish rot and birds are scattered, the population is cut off, the fields are barren, the thorns and hazelnuts cover the wilderness, and it has become the norm to change children and eat, how can there be grain and grass supply and transportation army." ”
"You look at the Han and Tang Dynasties, a hundred or tens of thousands of troops were dispatched, and they could also go on an expedition for thousands of miles, but now, thirty or fifty thousand troops could not fight at the doorstep, without it, there was a shortage of food, money, and people."
"Since the food and grass are so scarce, it is better to persuade the Holy Lord to withdraw the army......
Zheng Haoqian was frightened, and his already little beard was torn off by him, and he said in fear: "Don't talk nonsense about this matter, there have been many festival commanders who have mentioned it, but they have all been forcibly vetoed by the saint." ”
Qin Yue scratched his head, thinking to himself how did you get mixed up with the position of a general secretary and a person with such a soft temperament, and you didn't have any courage and responsibility, just because many marshals had mentioned it, which showed that the idea of retiring from the army was correct. Immediately said: "Then when I didn't say it." ”
Qin Yue didn't say anything, but Zheng Haoqian was anxious again, and wanted to reach out to grab him, with a worried look.
"Tell me about it."
"Then Zheng Sheren will tell me first, why did the marshals persuade the saint to withdraw from the army?"
"The army is short of food, and the city is difficult to attack."
Qin Yue said with a smile: "Now it is actually a difficult situation to ride a tiger, and I am afraid it is difficult to be convincing on the facts, but let's change our thinking and swear endlessly." ”
may not be responsible for the matter, or because of the bystanders, Qin Yue came up with a plan for Zheng Haoqian, and Zheng Haoqian's eyes were full of brilliance.
It's a pity that scholars are not enough to make a living, Qin Yue came up with an idea for Zheng Haoqian, but this guy sold himself in a blink of an eye. With the lifeless look on the eunuch who rushed to summon him, Qin Yue knew that if he hadn't been listed in the eyes of the saint, a crime of "arguing about national affairs" would be indispensable.
Qin Yue honestly saluted Guo Rongxing.
Guo Rong asked while criticizing the folds: "Tell me, where did you dare to provoke others to write a letter to persuade me to withdraw my troops?" ”
Qin Yue lowered his head and thought about it, didn't he say that he didn't wear thousands of sycophants, and try it, "Back to the saint, this courage was given by the saint." ”
"Oh?"
"The saint works hard to govern the country, and the subjects of the world see it, then, everything that is beneficial to the country, as the subordinates can think of it, should find a way to play it for reference."
Guo Rong bowed slightly, put down the brush in his hand, leaned back on the chair, and said, "What Zheng Qing said in the fold is extremely brief, you can talk about it again." ”
"Yes." Qin Yue replied: "Can you let the minister take a look at Zheng Sheren's excerpt first, although the minister has suggestions, but I don't know how to write the excerpt." ”
As soon as Guo Rongwei signaled, a eunuch found a fold on the desk and held it over.
Qin Yue took a look at it, and wanted to scold his mother, just write a key reason, but he wants to show off his literary talents, from the three emperors to the five emperors, and he is also full of people plus food and grass, morale and other issues, but the key things are written in a plausible way......
In the end, I kindly mentioned my name. cough, this Zheng Haoqian, sure enough, the person is as his name, and he is humble to the end, no wonder the saint only summoned himself.
