Chapter 290: Life is Like a Dream

After the court meeting, Guo Shao followed the eunuch Cao Tai from Yongdao into the apse of Jinxiang Palace.

"Shi Yanchao is not convinced that you will be inspected before the palace." Fu Jinzhan said when they met.

Guo Shao felt sorrow in her moon-like eyes and tone, but for a while he still couldn't understand her specific sorrows. No matter how much attention and value is given to a person, he can only feel emotions, but he cannot know what others think.

Guo Shao looked sideways a little and found that the eunuch Wang Zhong was also standing far away outside the open thin door. He had heard Cao Tai mention before that the eunuch Wang Zhong seemed to be in charge of the "Imperial City Division", an eye-and-ear organization similar to the Ming Dynasty factory guards but much smaller in size and power. Thinking that Shi Yanchao was being watched by Fu Jinzhan ...... However, only if she is very unstable in her heart, will she send someone to monitor the civil and military forces in the capital?

"Queen Mother, Shi Yanchao is a reckless man, but he is also a military general." Guo Shao said quietly.

"Oh?" Fu Jinzhan seemed to like to listen to Guo Shao very much, and although he only had a tactful word at this time, he couldn't hide his expectant tone.

Guo Shao immediately said in a deep voice: "The army is different from the civilian and even officialdom, since ancient times, soldiers have taken obedience to orders as their duty, and any military law will have the article of 'disobeying orders'." Since Shi Yanchao can be a high-level general, he must know the rules. If he didn't even have any rules, it is estimated that he would have died a thousand times without the ministers saving him in Jinyang.

This man has no hill and no stand. If you have a little stance, you may remember in your heart the grace of the first emperor to tolerate and promote him; The minister also has a life-saving grace for him, as long as he can perceive the grace of encounter, he will naturally remember the grace of saving his life. And Shi Yanchao bravely crowned the three armies, fought very bravely, and was the person who could be used at the moment; His fame is also very great, and if he is easily moved, it will appear that the power circle of the new pattern of the imperial court cannot tolerate people, which is not conducive to stabilizing people's hearts.

Shi Yanchao was unconvinced, which was reasonable; I'm afraid that Shi Yanchao is not the only one who is unconvinced, but some people are unconvinced but dare not say it for fear of power. Only people like Shi Yanchao are open-mouthed. This is not a problem that can be solved by getting rid of him, our prestige really needs to be fought with real knives and guns! As long as a few big victories are achieved, those who are not convinced will naturally be convinced. ”

Fu Jinzhan's expression eased slightly, stretched his upper body, straightened his neck, and said softly: "General Guo can see through Wang Pu and Shi Yanchao. Indeed, when you say it, I understand. ”

Guo Shao bent down and whispered: "The minister is the person who was cultivated by the Queen Mother...... The queen mother's recent actions are to teach her life to the ministers, and this trust should be engraved in the hearts of the ministers. ”

"If only you understood." Fu Jinzhan's expression changed slightly, he reached out and brushed the sideburns in his ears, pursed his lips, and said faintly, "You won't let me regret it...... I don't think I'll regret it anyway, but I will ......"

Guo Shao watched her raise her head and chest, her chest rising and falling slightly with her breathing, and finally felt her mood. He pondered for a moment and said: "If the minister is in the active position, he is willing to hand over the power of life and death to the queen mother." ”

Fu Jinzhan's crooked eyes seemed to be smiling, but with a little sadness: "The world is human, and people's hearts are changeable. Aren't you afraid that I'll change my mind? ”

Guo Shao was reluctant to swear an oath, he wanted to swear and say...... But after a little more experience, I think that thing seems to be very pale. He smiled open-mindedly: "Queen Mother, think about it again, the relationship between us is quite strong, right?" It takes a lot of time and accumulation to create a rift, and if there is a day, maybe we are all old, or even a lifetime is almost over. ”

Fu Jinzhan was thoughtful.

Guo Shao pointed to the bare trees outside the window and said gently: "Maybe there are still many flowers on it in spring, what now?" We can still be young now, what will it be like in a few decades? ”

When Fu Jinzhan heard this, he sighed softly.

Guo Shao said: "Grass and trees, life is short, red faces are fleeting, life is like a dream, and even a unified dynasty is at most hundreds of years, and there is still a lot of turmoil in the middle." But people want to cling to eternity, Qin Shi Huang ran the iron-clad Guanzhong, and even looked for the elixir of life in many ways, what was the result? ”

"What General Guo means is that it is in vain to plan far-sightedly?" Fu Jinzhan asked faintly.

Guo Shao said: "In the past, the martial artist who taught me archery in the Fu family's mansion told me not to think too much. I always have realizations, and it's useless to think too far ahead. At least now I'm willing to do everything for the Queen Mother, do you believe it? ”

"I believe it." Fu Jinzhan looked at him with bright eyes, "Then what about after that?" ”

At this time, Guo Shao sighed helplessly. Unexpectedly, Fu Jinzhan covered her mouth and laughed "sneering".

Fu Jinzhan turned his head to look outside, leaned forward slightly, and whispered: "Actually, no matter the situation or my heart, there is no room for me to choose at all. I pestered you to say those words, but I just wanted to hear your sweet words, but I didn't expect you to talk to me about what is fleeting, and life is like a dream......"

The last eight words she said were the most charming, originally Guo Shao's words, but they were retold from her mouth and listened to them tactfully, like poetry.

Guo Shao suddenly touched the back of his head and was speechless.

"That's it." Fu Jinzhan sighed lightly, but his complexion looked much better, "Now that you are in charge of the front division of the palace, you can justifiably rectify the forbidden army, what are the steps?" ”

Guo Shao breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly clenched his fists and said: "A while ago, I read through the files of the Privy Council, screened out some more reliable formations from the Iron Cavalry Army, and removed the military generals above the capital head, and the remaining cavalry was incorporated into the new army 'Tiger Ben Army'; After the reorganization of the Tiger Army, the most critical rectification was completed. This is the first step.

The second step is to pre-arrange the candidates for the general of the Guard Division. The third step is to reorganize the formation of the Longjie Army and the Hujie Army, and wait for the left wing of the Longjie Army to pull back from Hebei, and reorganize the rest of the Iron Cavalry Army and the left and right wings of the Longjie Army. ”

Fu Jinzhan nodded slightly and asked, "Who will preside over the Guard Division?" ”

Guo Shaodao: "The minister thinks it's better to be Hantong." This person has high qualifications and prestige, and can subdue the people of the various departments that are more chaotic after the reorganization. Han Tong is known as 'Han Eye', and he is also a person who can't manage his henchmen, although he is not our person, he can be reused. There is also a specific list of generals, I put it at home, and report it to the Queen Mother another day, so that the Queen Mother can decide. ”

Fu Jinzhan asked, "Let me ask you, do you think this arrangement is reliable?" ”

Guo Shao muttered: "There seems to be no completely reliable way at the moment...... The main people are still the same ones, whether they can serve the public, whether they can fight, they have to go into battle to try. At that time, the first emperor was also the lord of the Ming Dynasty, and on the eve of the battle of Gaoping, there were a large number of people who fled on the battlefield. ”

Guo Shao had a deep impact on the Battle of Gaoping, and he almost died in that battle. At that time, he didn't know the specific deployment, but he remembered very well the cavalry soldiers in front of him who were about to collapse at the touch of a button, and he also felt a lot about the danger of the infantry battalion being chaotic and the battlefield almost collapsing.

Fu Jinzhan said: "If Li Jixun and Li Chongjin's rebellion can't be quelled, the situation will get out of control." ”

"Li Chongjin is the most famous, but the most powerful is Li Yun. As long as Li Yun does not rebel, the odds are very high. Guo Shao said.

Fu Jinzhan whispered: "You help me through this crisis, and I will figure out how to reward you when I come back." ”

Guo Shao was slightly stunned, he is now the highest position in the forbidden army, and the official can't be promoted, what else is there to reward Fu Jinzhan for?
