Chapter 952: Can't Be Idle
"Chen Yang Feng has seen Your Majesty, long live, long live, long live!" Yang Feng saw Yun Xi and bowed and saluted.
"I have already said, you and Cao Xing want to call me the official family, you don't need to call your majesty, why do you still call your majesty." Yun Xi stood up, smiled and helped him up and said.
Yang Feng also replied with a smile: "Official, the first salute when you see an official must be solemn, and the minister must also be addressed to Your Majesty." ”
"What is the first and second ceremony, it's not that I haven't seen me for a long time, why bother so much." Yun Xi said.
Yang Feng smiled and didn't answer, and after sitting down to greet him for a few words, Yun Xi said again: "What did you do when you entered the palace today?" Could it be that I am afraid that I will feel lonely, so I can't come to the palace to chat with me? "It turned out that Yang Feng entered the palace today, not because he was allowed to announce him, but because he applied for it himself. Yun Xi vaguely guessed about his purpose, but still allowed him to enter the palace.
Yang Feng said with a smile: "The official family is accompanied by the queen and the imperial concubines in the palace, how can they feel lonely?" ”
"Haha, Yang Feng, you're going to joke with me too." Yun Xi smiled: "The queen is indeed very good, and I often chat with her at night, and I never get bored." But she is a woman after all, and her knowledge is still different from that of men, how can she be like you? ”
Yang Feng laughed for a while, and then joked with Yun Xi a few words, and then said: "Official, it has been almost two months since the minister returned to the capital from Datong and was received by the official. Although Chen's wife died of illness in late March, she has already passed seventy-seven. ”
He half-jokingly said again: "Could it be that the father of the official family who is sympathetic to the minister is also old, and he wants the minister to spend more time with his parents at home?" The minister's father thought that the minister was greedy for comfort and did not want to be an official, so he picked up a broom and wanted to beat the minister. ”
"I understand what you mean, you want to run an errand. I thought that you would not be in the capital for more than three years and rest for a few more days, but I didn't want the boss to misunderstand what I meant. Yun Xi smiled.
"The official family is sympathetic to the minister, and the minister also understands, but my father has been busy all his life and can't be idle, and now he is in his fifties and still has to find something to do in Wei, which makes Commander Wei very troubled, and has to arrange an official position for his father; I can't accept that other people who can still move are idle and muttering all day long. ”
And the minister himself was busy for three years and suddenly idle, and he also felt uncomfortable, as if he had hair on his body. Even if it is to arrange for the minister to be the head soldier, the minister is willing, at least not to grow hair. Yang Feng still smiled.
"Hey, there are still people in the world who don't want to be idle. I'd like to spend a day in the harem with nothing to do, but it doesn't work out. After saying this, Yun Xi saw that Yang Feng's facial expression had changed, and said with a positive color: "Yang Feng, it's not that I don't want you to run an errand, it's just that I haven't figured out how to arrange for you yet." ”
"There will be a war with Samarkand next year or the year after, and I will definitely arrange for you to be a general at that time, and you will be commanded to fight. There will be a large number of troops dispatched to the battle of Samarkand, and there will be more guards than those dispatched to attack Annam, and if you are appointed as a lieutenant general, I am afraid that you will not be able to suppress the scene, so I will only serve as a general. When you make a contribution to this battle, I will be able to use you greatly in the future. ”
"But before the war with Samarkand, I am still hesitant to arrange for you. I want you to lead the troops below, but the highest troops in the left and near the capital are just commanders, and they are low; Send you to a foreign country, and it will not be easy to transfer you back when the time comes. ”
"If you serve in the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, your qualifications are slightly worse than that of the Governor and the Governor, but you can't exercise anything when you are the Governor. So I haven't decided how to arrange you. ”
Yun Xi's words are already very convincing, except for the reason that he does not plan to appoint him as a deputy general, the rest of his words are the truth. Yun Xi regarded Yang Feng as a friend, and besides, it was not a big deal, so he didn't hide it.
And the reason why he did not plan to appoint him as a deputy general at that time was not only because he was worried that the generals would not be convinced, but more importantly, he was not very sure of his military command ability. Although Yang Feng was previously a deputy general in Datong and Yansui Towns in the north, and he had fought a few battles and performed well, the scale was too small to be used as a credential. Commanding 10,000 men is completely different from commanding 100,000 men. The most typical example is Hu Zongnan, later generations commented that he is also at the level of being a regiment commander, and he is also a division commander, and any more is beyond his ability; But he wants to let him command hundreds of thousands of troops, can he command well?
Yang Feng naturally felt that Yun Xi was telling the truth, and he was quite moved in his heart, and said, "Official, why do you need to think about the ministers so much? If you want your ministers to lead the troops, send the ministers to lead the troops in the guards; If you are in the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, the command is the same. ”
"It's not going to work." Yun Xi said, "How can I send you away so easily. ”
"Official, although what the minister said just now is a little joking, it is also the minister's heart. No matter what position the official arranges for the minister, as long as he serves the imperial court, the minister will gladly accept the appointment of the official family without complaint. Yang Feng stood up and said.
"Sit down, stand up and do something." Yun Xi said hurriedly. If someone else had said this, his heart would have not fluctuated at all; But now that Yang Feng is saying it, Yun Xi believes it, and he is still a little moved.
Waiting for Yang Feng to sit down, Yun Xi said, "Since this is the case, I will appoint you to an official position, you should not be too small." ”
"Last year, I appointed many of the generals around me as generals in the battle of Annam, among which Zhang Fu made the greatest contributions, and many people also made contributions, but the credit was not great, so the reputation was not obvious, not to mention it, but because of this, there were many fewer people around me. I want to appoint you as a general, would you? ”
"Commandment." Yang Feng said immediately, without the slightest hesitation.
"Okay, then I will appoint you as a general, and I will come to the palace tomorrow to be on duty." Yun Xi thought of something again, and said with a smile: "I don't know how Li Bo and the other people who used to be guards with you back then would react when they heard this?" ”
"Them?" Yang Feng also smiled: "Most of them will be dumbfounded." The ministers went from the guards to the deputy generals of the border gates, and now they go to the palace to give up people for the generals, and there are not many officials like the ministers who are so different from each other. ”
"It's not just much, Daming is just you. I won't tell them first, and when you enter the palace tomorrow and ask them, you will tell them again, and then turn around and tell me their expressions for a moment, so that I can have a good time. ”
"Obey." Yang Feng made a leading move, which caused Yun Xi to laugh again.
After laughing, Yun Xi asked Wang Xi to bring pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and personally wrote him an edict to settle the matter.
