Chapter 180: Advice to the Eternal Calendar

Pang Tianshou said with a smile: "The miscellaneous family is just a thought. ”

Pang Tianshou's words were also somewhat reserved. He was a devout Catholic. Not only do I believe in religion, but also my family members believe in religion, and I have frequent contacts with Macau. It's not just a thought.

But Pang Tianshou also knew that the literati doctors of the Ming Dynasty, even if they accepted Catholicism, it was only as a supplement to knowledge. They themselves were very tolerant, but they had reservations about the introduction of Catholicism into the court, and in their opinion, it was better for the emperor to be a devout follower of Confucius and Mencius, and to take a step back, good Buddha and good way, it was acceptable. But Catholicism has some crooked ways.

However, the situation has evolved like this, and Qu Shiyun has no time to care about these things. He suddenly remembered another thing and said, "I heard that Gonggong Pang sent his younger brother to Macao to buy firearms and want to organize a musketeer?" ”

"But there is such a thing." Pang Tianshou said: "This is also what the emperor meant, and now the situation is shaky, the war is continuous, and there are not many people around the emperor who are even guarding." Besides, as a eunuch of the imperial horse, he already has the power to govern the soldiers and horses. ”

What Pang Tianshou said was true, Huang Degong and others were in the army under the command of the Imperial Horse Supervisor before.

Qu Shiyun sighed lightly and said: "It's rare for my father-in-law to worry about the country and the people, I can't help my father-in-law with this matter, but when Brother Ling comes, it's still okay for them to receive a penny of food." ”

Pang Tianshou said: "Oh, thank you, sir." ”

"It's all for the country, thank you." Qu Shiyun said: "It would be much better if everyone was as reasonable as my father-in-law. ”

For Qu Shiyun, he is happy to see the emperor directly control a part of the troops, the reason is very simple, and now Qu Shiyun feels more and more that the biggest obstacle in the court is not the emperor, but those large and small military leaders. Imperial power is even the help of Qu Shiyun.

When he thought of the money, food, and troops, Qu Shiyun felt that his brain hurt, compared to the controversy over moving the capital, this was the biggest problem. And it is something that Qu Shiyun must face, and Guilin's treasury is almost used, after all, raising troops, ascending the throne, going on expeditions, and so on are all over the place, and money is indispensable for any of them.

How much money can Guangxi have as a poor province, it is natural that it cannot make ends meet.

After walking a short distance along the central axis of Jingjiang Palace, I turned into a side hall.

In many cases, the main hall is used for major ceremonies, such as the enthronement ceremony. The general office is in the side hall.

It is true that the eternal calendar has been waiting for a long time.

Yongli saw Qu Shiyun come in and immediately got up to greet him. Qu Shiyun hurriedly saluted, and the two exchanged pleasantries for a while, and then the guest and host sat down. Qu Shiyun said: "The minister heard about the relocation of the capital below,

There was a lot of discussion, and I came to ask to see Your Majesty and explain a thing or two to Your Majesty. ”

Yongli said: "What does the gentleman have to teach me? ”

Both Qu Shiyun and Yongli know that in fact, the matter of moving the capital is the meaning of Yongli. But both pretended not to know.

Qu Shiyun said: "The minister has a foolish opinion, please learn from it." ”

"Your Majesty was the king of Gui first, and then ascended the throne in Guilin, and this place is the blessed land of Your Majesty. Forest, the meaning of luxuriant, this day wants His Majesty to flourish in this place. It is unlucky to abandon it today for no reason, and this is also. ”

People in this era are more or less superstitious. As soon as Qu Shiyun said this, Yongli also moved in his heart when he heard it.

"And His Majesty has only been on the throne for more than a month, and he has not made great contributions to the world, and he can't be virtuous in the world, so he first competed with the Tang King, so that the cranes and mussels competed with each other, so that Zhang Thief and Fisherman benefited. So that within the four seas, people with lofty ideals are watching His Majesty's actions and whether there is a tendency to cheer up. Now abandon the Beijing division for no reason, and lose the hope of the world. The hearts of the Ming Dynasty for more than 200 years are the root of the contention between the Ming Dynasty and the Xia thieves, and the hope of the four seas must not be lost in vain. ”

Yongli immediately said: "Sir's meaning, I also understand, but the high thief is in the north, the Zhang thief is in the east, and the voice of the war is spread in the Jingshi, this is not a place to be blocked." ”

Qu Shiyun said: "Your Majesty, and today, where is there a place to be blocked? ”

"Those who move the capital are none other than Shu and Yunnan."

"In Shuzhong, Lord Fan is supervising the division, with General Yang as the general, and the battle with the Western Thieves is in full swing, and I am afraid that I will not have time to take over. And in the war, the victory or defeat is difficult to say, in case Lord Fan loses, the western thief soldiers will go to the south of Sichuan. Is it a place of peace? ”

"And in central Yunnan, the rebellion in Shadingzhou has not yet subsided, Mu Guogong has already sent someone to ask the court for help, see that Mu Guogong naturally can't protect it, how to protect the court."

"Guilin seems to be safe and secure, and Shuzhong and Yunnan seem to be safe and dangerous."

As for Guizhou, Qu Shiyun didn't say anything at all. The reason is very simple, in this era, Guizhou Province is almost all toast. There are not too many soldiers and horses who are really subordinate to the imperial court, and many Tusi support the Ming Dynasty, but in the eyes of the imperial court, it is not worth believing.

There is a more important reason, the land of Guizhou cannot support the imperial court at all. Guizhou money and grain was a joke in the Ming Dynasty.

Although Guangxi is also a poor place compared to Guangdong, it is richer than Guizhou.

Yongli said: "But, but ----"

But what? I couldn't say it for a while.

Qu Shiyun had long seen that Yongli's proposal to move the capital was not for any political purpose. Or a smoke bomb or something, purely because of one thing, that is, Yongli is worried that Guilin City is not safe enough.

Such a timid emperor made Qu Shiyun a little disappointed. But the thought of disappointment flashed away. He said, "Please rest assured, Your Majesty,

There are old ministers, and His Majesty is sitting in the city of Guilin. ”

What else can Yongli say, he just said: "Guilin's safety is entrusted to Mr." ”

Qu Shiyun said: "The old minister will not dare to disappoint Your Majesty, the city is in the people, and the city is dead." ”

Qu Shiyun probably didn't expect that he would actually say a prophecy.

After Qu Shiyun appeased the emperor, he did not stay in the palace for long. He took his leave and left.

The emperor settled here, and the rest of the things were very simple, Qu Shiyun didn't work for half a day, and he fought all kinds of discussions about moving the capital, which can be regarded as reversing the public opinion in the court and turning the matter to the matter of the Eastern Crusade.

The longer it drags on, the fewer targets Qu will have.

At this moment, his so-called Eastern Crusade was nothing more than consolidating the territory of several prefectures and counties east of Guilin. There is no intention of fighting Zhang Xuan in modern times. In his opinion, Zhang Xuan went on an expedition of thousands of miles and conquered Guangzhou in one fell swoop, and among Guangdong Province, all parts of the country have not been completely pacified, at least near Chaozhou, there is still a Ming army.

It was the Ming army that resisted the Zheng clan before.

In his mind, Zhang Xuan should be stable in Guangzhou for a month or two before the next campaign.

This is almost Zhang Xuan's style.

The more famous Zhang Xuan became, the more many people put Zhang Xuan's various cases under a magnifying glass to observe and scrutinize carefully. The person who studied Zhang Xuan, Qu Shiyun was one of them.

"My lord, something is wrong." Just when Qu Shiyun was thinking about the strategy of the Eastern Crusade and the various interest arrangements in it. Suddenly, someone stumbled in and said.

Qu Shiyun coughed and said, "What a panic, the people below are all looking at you, you panic a point, spread it, and the people below will panic for ten points." What is there to say. ”

"Yes." This person took a few deep breaths, regained his composure, and said, "My lord, Zhaoqing has been lost. ”

Qu Shiyun's hand, which was twisting his beard, sank suddenly, and pulled a long whisker off Qu Shiyun's chin. Qu Shiyun gasped, not knowing whether he was scared or hurt. However, between Qu Shiyun's breaths, he straightened out his emotions.

"It's a matter of time, but it's still a little early." Qu Shiyun's tone was a little low, and he said, "It's just that what happened to Yan Gong?" ”

Chen Bangyan, the word Lingbin, the number Iwanno. The so-called Iwagong refers to him.

"Yan Gong. It's already unfortunate. The man said, "It is rumored that he died in the midst of the rebellion." I heard that the reason why Zhaoqing City fell so quickly was that Ding Chukui surrendered to thieves and opened the gate of Zhaoqing City, and Yan Gong was at the head of the city at that time. ”

"Hey-----" Qu Shiyun said: "Yan Gong is a righteous man and a gentleman, and naturally he is not the opponent of Ding Thief and cunning, but as soon as Zhaoqing falls, Xia Jun will inevitably make a move, and we are running out of time." ”
