Zhao Cheng was slightly stunned, "Is the news of the Zhizhou Xianggong confirmed?" ”

Cai You frowned, "Not sure but basically close." The root of this mallet lies in Qin Ming! ”

I don't know why, aren't the two on their honeymoon? Cai You suddenly used words so serious?

Cai You continued, "Qin Ming is just self-serving, putting gold on his face, and the matter of Huangbianzhai is obviously incompetent, but what kind of bandit is too cunning. The biggest problem is that in addition to pulling these calves for Honshu, he also played the military department! This complicates the current problem, and Honshu concluded that it was a matter of time before the Wuwei army entered Chizhou. ”

It is true that Qin Ming's leader is Cai You, but the complication is that the Xiang Army in this period was the government series (under the Zhongshu Gate), not the Privy Council (Military 1st Committee) series.

The sequelae of Zhao Tingzhi and Cai Jing's fighting method have caused the current military department to be a decoration, and Zhang Kegong, the squire of the military department, is the most anti-Cai family.

This represents the impulsive and fiery Qin Ming's report to Zhang Kegong. This is okay, the military command power is indeed in Cai You's hands, but in business, the head of the Chizhou Xiang Army can of course report to Zhang Kegong of the Ministry of War.

It's a political sass. It's a pity that Cai You can't do anything about Qin Ming at this time, since the Hongshan Village was killed by Wang Xiu, the situation in Chizhou is about to erupt, and General Qin Ming, who is known as the courage of Wanfu, still has a tendency to be uncontrollable, as a scholar, Cai You does not dare to move Qin Ming at this time from any angle.

Otherwise, from Cai You's point of view, maybe he thinks that both Zhou Cheng and himself are in danger!

At this point, Zhao Cheng could be sure that Qin Ming was abolished.

His impulsiveness and ignorance had killed him, and it would be a big mistake for him to think that he could hug the thigh of Zhang Kegong, the squire of the military department. In terms of the corrupt thinking of fire prevention, theft and military generals, Zhang Kegong will only be more conservative than him Cai You.

Now it is nothing more than political dumping and mutual use, Qin Ming as a temporary worker and military general dares to participate in this kind of affairs, if he has a kind of family background, qualifications, talent, prestige, and status, he will not talk about him, but there is no situation where he dares to play like this with the famous traitor Cai You.

This...... Zhao Cheng could only give a silent tribute to General Qin, after the difficulties in Chizhou passed, when Cai You didn't need to rely on him, basically Qin Ming's big trouble would definitely come. It's hard to say that the plots in the Water Margin are really possible.

Zhao Cheng thought so with a strange expression, Cai You suddenly squinted his eyes and stared at Zhao Cheng and asked, "Benzhou has been paying attention to you for a long time, the river service, the cottage rescue Zhang Ji and Li Jianyou, political strategy, the fire of "Lanruo Temple", the affairs of the county government, including the rescue of the little girl by the thief in Huangbian Village. ”

After a pause, he said: "These piles are enough to prove that you are not only talented and have ideas, but what is valuable is that you are especially capable of execution compared to others." The state seldom relies on one person, and seldom listens to the opinions of others, but now I want to ask you, do you have any opinion on these matters? ”

Zhao Cheng was also embarrassed.

Regarding this kind of affairs, Zhao Cheng doesn't want to be the focus of attention again. That's good, but it also comes with some unseen troubles.

It's been too short to come to the Northern Song Dynasty, and to put it bluntly, it's only a month later, and now I hear Cai You say it's really too showy, and I have done so many eye-catching things unconsciously.

The most showy thing was to defeat Dong Jianwu with the reputation of "one yang finger", which was in full view of everyone. To a certain extent, it was praised as "bravery" by the Song people who loved gossip. This may be the reason why Cai You came to ask Zhao Cheng about banditry when he found out that Qin Ming was a big stick mallet and caught blind.

This Nima is really not good, and he tried not to lose his literati status in the Northern Song Dynasty. Fortunately, Zhao Cheng, a person who can write and martial arts, is not a special case, such as Han Qi Fubi, these are these, especially when Zhang Shuye is an envoy to the Liao State, he is a person who can compete with the nomadic Liao generals when he is in Liao, and with these, it seems that Zhao Cheng's one-yang finger spotlight is not so strong.

Seeing that he looked strange and hesitating, Cai You twisted nonsense and said: "Actually, you don't have to think about it, but if you have anything unspeakable, you can directly tell Benzhou, and it won't count you as a sin." In fact, about your brave rescue of Li Jianyou and Zhang Ji, Benzhou has always wondered, the cottage has not been suppressed, so will your process be too simple? ”

This is something that has always been inconvenient to talk to him, but I didn't expect him to pay attention to it and take the initiative to mention it, so Zhao Cheng didn't dare to be careless, "Xianggong will see it." As you think, after the bandit leader Wang Ying subdued the law, the Yangshan Cottage was the master of white agarwood, and he was not angry. And when he killed the bandit leader Wang Ying, the student was kind to the white agarwood, this is the beginning and end of this matter, and it is not all the students who make their own opinions, among which the county magistrate acquiesces. ”

Cai You touched his chin and muttered, "No wonder ......"

And he said, "In that case, there is no need to be afraid of this. It is a credit not to add to the chaos, and the cottage is also divided into mild and non-mild, which does not contradict the policy of my father, Lao Cai Xiangye, on the contrary, it can make the white agarwood ministry become the official help of the special period, participate in stabilizing the situation in Chizhou, and do this is meritorious. In the future, Benzhou will come forward, and it will not be difficult for her to give an example of white agarwood. ”

Zhao Cheng breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Xie Zhizhou is the minister." ”

Cai You turned to say, "But you still haven't said it, now that Wang Xiuzhai is rapidly becoming bigger and gradually rampant, and my government is powerless to control it, how to deal with it?" In the case of a forest of cottages, they themselves can still pull and balance each other, once Wang Xiu continues to grow, and we can't suppress it, it is even more a foregone conclusion that the Wuwei army will enter Chizhou. ”

"In addition to showing my inability to stabilize the situation, this is more likely to hit my father's prestige back in power. In addition, as soon as the Wuwei army entered Chizhou, it represented the official attitude: the bandits were about to be suppressed. This will definitely cause the cottage to go to extremes in advance. Whether I can win the war or not, if the war under my rule is flying, and the finance, taxes, money, and people's livelihood are greatly affected, then it will become my fault in the first place, smearing the face of today, and at the same time the suffering of the people under my rule, what do you think? ”

Cai You finally said: "You can speak freely about this, and the state will tolerate it." ”

Zhao Cheng hugged his fists and said: "After the Hongshanzhai incident was reported by Qin Ming, it has basically become a landmark event, the prestige of the old Cai Xiangye in the early days of his comeback was limited, and the privy envoy Zhang Kangguo Xianggong was in a state of vacillation, in this case, the student is sure: Wuwei Army entering Chizhou is an inevitable move, unstoppable. ”

Cai You frowned, but he was helpless, he also knew that this was inevitable from a political point of view, Zhang Kangguo was his father's man on the surface, but he was really an old fox, basically he would occupy the rhythm over there when he was strong. In a period of political tailwinds when the situation is good, this kind of person can increase his momentum and be clever and useful, but at critical moments, this kind of person is absolutely unreliable.

Sighing, Cai You nodded slightly, gestured and continued.

Zhao Cheng said again: "Since you can't manage it, then don't care about him." He came and let him come. Although it is a foreign army, as long as you still know the state after entering Chizhou, the law of whether to send troops is still in the hands of Xianggong. ”

Cai You twisted his beard and said: "This is the reason, I am afraid that they will be instigated by others like Qin Ming and secretly pull the stage for Benzhou." And the biggest hidden danger is that once the Wuwei army enters Chizhou, even if the state does not move, it will destroy the balance, for example, Wang Xiu must think that the Wuwei army is a threat, and the dog jumps over the wall in a hurry and takes risks may rebel in advance, attacking the county or even the state city, which will inevitably be ruined. As long as it happens, it must be the failure of the state's administration! My Cai family's face, how can I put it? ”
