Judging from the emperor's will to punish him lightly, Tokto's response is undoubtedly extremely correct, as long as there is him as the pillar of the family, then it doesn't matter if Timur is temporarily demoted to a commoner, there is a chance to turn the matter around in the future.

The turmoil of the defeat of the first army passed temporarily, and the first and Lao Zhang also fled back to Dadu soon after, and after learning that the elder brother had resisted the charge, he also felt guilty first, and knelt down to the elder brother.

Although Tokhtar blamed his younger brother for not being successful, he was a flesh and blood brother after all, and when he saw him like this, he could only say words of comfort, and told him to recuperate at home for a while, and only be responsible for everything at home, and then find a way to reinstate him after this turmoil completely subsided.

Although this matter was resolved, the matter of the Henan red turban thief still made Totok restless, there were Hewu and Bald Red who fled in defeat, and then there were Yexian, Lao Zhang, and Gong Buban were defeated, are these thieves really so powerful?

Tokhtar made up his mind, this time no matter what, he couldn't send some unsuccessful generals to beg for thieves, and if he really couldn't do it, he would take command himself and regain face for his younger brother.

After Toktoku moved the idea of taking command in person, he asked Ru Zhongbai and other henchmen to discuss, but after hearing this, Ru Zhongbai and others rarely spoke out against it.

"Prime Minister, do you use a knife to kill chickens? What is your status, and how do they deserve to be your hands-on? In addition, in recent years, there have been many cases of local people making rebellions, and if you personally ask for it this time, then next time? Isn't it possible that you want to put aside your government affairs and go outside to suppress thieves? Isn't this a shameful military officer of the Manchu Dynasty? ”

Tokhtar listened to their advice, nodded his head, and asked, "Do you have a good idea?" Now that the Yellow River has been governed, the turmoil of changing money has passed, but the gang of red turban thieves in Henan is very difficult, if you can't calm down Henan this year, then these red turban thieves will really become the climate, and then it will be even more difficult to exterminate them in one fell swoop! ”

Ruzhong Bai bowed forward: "Prime Minister, I would like to recommend a person, this person is worthy of a big responsibility, and he will calm Henan in one fell swoop!" ”

Tokhtar was overjoyed when he heard this: "Don't say it soon!" ”

Ru Zhongbai raised his eyes and looked directly at the detachment, and said in a loud voice: "Zhongshu Pingzhang political affairs, too unspending!" ”

As soon as this remark came out, the other aides were shocked, and in the eyes of outsiders, Gaintoo was the old party of the Taiping faction, and he should be regarded as a political enemy of the detachment party.

He was not as surprised as the others, he knew that there must be a reason why Ru Zhongbai dared to recommend him, so he narrowed his eyes and recalled things related to this person.

Speaking of too much, this person is from a very high background, the world is a royal relative, after entering the official with the world, he has moved to the right of Yunnan Province, and has been a political envoy, staying in the capital, and Pingzhang political affairs in Liaoyang Province.

When Taiping was the prime minister in the eighth year of Zhizheng, he strongly recommended to Emperor Zhizheng that it was too useless, so he was summoned to Zhongshu Province and used it for the political affairs of Zhongshu Pingzhang, and the Manchu Dynasty civil and military also regarded it as the confidant of the Taiping Party.

In the second year, Taiping was dismissed by the emperor, and the first thing to do was to clean up the old Taiping party and expel this Taibuhua from Zhongshu Province, but the Tokhov Party eradicated many political enemies, but only this person was left behind, and he continued to serve as the political affairs of Pingzhang in Zhongshu Province.

Outsiders have doubts about this, but the descendants of the two parties are well aware of the cause and effect of this matter, and it turns out that although Tai Buhua was recommended by Taiping, he thinks that Taiping Duo has misled the country, and he does not respect him so much in his heart.

coincided with the Taiping Incident, and he personally visited Tokhtar to express his loyalty, and helped Tokhtar eradicate many old Taiping parties.

Totokh remembered that he had merit, so he let him continue to stay in Zhongshu Province and did not expel him from Beijing, but Totokh never regarded him as a confidant, saying that it was a political affair in Zhongshu Province, but in fact it was just a false position.

Ru Zhongbai, as the chief staff of Tokto, can recite the background of the Manchu Dynasty civil and military, this somewhat strange Tai Buhua naturally can't escape his attention, Ru Zhongbai is curious about how talented this person is, and secondly, he also wants to help Tofu to find out this person's intentions, so he has visited a few times in his spare time.

Tai Buhua knows the identity of Ru Zhongbai, and it is also courteous to him, the two have been in contact a few times, and Ru Zhongbai knows that this person does have real talent and real learning in his belly, not to mention being an official and a politician, and even the art of war and strategy are also deeply studied, and he can be a civil and military all-rounder.

Just in time for today's detachment to ask who can be handsome, Ru Zhongbai stepped forward and decided to help Tai not once.

Ru Zhongbai calculated clearly in his heart, it seems that a person with such a prominent family background and real talent and learning will get ahead sooner or later, and instead of icing on the cake in the future to please him, it is better to send charcoal in the snow now and send him to the battlefield in Henan.

If he doesn't spend too much money to become famous, he will definitely not forget himself at that time, and if he fails, he will at most be blamed for a few words of ignorance.

Such a political investment is indispensable in the eyes of Ru Zhongbai, so it is too unexpensive to dare to recommend it confidently at this time.

Totoku squinted and thought for a long time, he himself did hear that Tai Buhua was very talented, otherwise he would not have been strongly recommended by Taiping, but he did not have a heart-to-heart with this person, and he was afraid that he would defect to the Taiping party after receiving the military power, so he seemed a little hesitant.

Ru Zhongbai saw the worry of getting rid of, and leaned closer and said: "Prime Minister, Tai Buhua this person had the heart to abandon the dark and turn to the light, and he did not contribute less when he eradicated the traitors, so that many people from the Taiping Party have many accusations against him, at this time, once you treat him politely, then Tai Buhua will definitely be deeply moved, dare not do your best for you?" ”

As soon as he heard that what he said was reasonable, he immediately prepared to send Ru Zhongbai to invite Tai Buhua to come to the house to talk about it, but Ru Zhongbai refused to move, hehe smiled and asked Tuo to take the initiative to invite, so as to show the sincerity of the prime minister.

Tokhtar thought about it, and thought that the crusade against the Henan red turban thieves was indeed the most important thing, and it was nothing for him to lower his identity for this, so he agreed on the spot, and immediately ordered someone to prepare a sedan chair, and looked for him in the mansion where Ru Zhongbai was too unspending.

Although Tai Buhua is in a high position, his power has long been hollowed out, and he stays in the study to read books when he has nothing to do.

Tai Buhua just wanted to reproach his subordinates, but he heard the housekeeper blurt out: "My lord, the prime minister is here, please see you outside the house now!" ”

Too much to be shocked: "You idiot, why are you so slow to treat the prime minister?" Don't go out with me to greet you! ”

When the two of them trotted all the way to the gate of the mansion, Tai Buhua stopped, took a breath, tidied up his clothes a few times, and then strode out to greet the detachment.
