Chapter 411: Answer truthfully
"Since you don't want to hang the crown, then do it well!" Yang Cunzhong saw him swaying, so he said this.
"Yes, the subordinate will be ordered!"
Lord Zhang finally got the real job fat difference of the palace front soldier case, how could he give up easily, even if it was difficult, this matter really didn't work out in the end, at most it was just to go to work, or transfer to another position, no matter what, it was much better than taking the initiative to go to the post now.
"Okay, within three days, you come up with a charter, and after approving it, you can start selecting it immediately." Yang Cunzhong succeeded, and his face couldn't help but be happy.
The army is full of old and weak old people, although he is anxious and anxious, but he can't think of a good way, and the selection of generals is protracted, quite time-consuming, he is in charge of the front division of the palace has a heavy responsibility, half a step can not leave Lin'an, it is impossible to do it personally, in the end it is to be handed over to the various departments and offices, it is better to hand it over at the beginning, he only determines the charter, and finally checks it.
"Yes, Xia Guan understands." Master Zhang's mind was a mess, and he took the matter in his mouth, but he didn't know how to deal with so many requests.
"Sit down. This matter must be handled well, and the daily affairs of the military case cannot be ignored, and if there is a shortage of manpower, you can go to other departments to coordinate and dispatch. Yang Cunzhong's tone calmed down.
"Yes, Xia Guan understands." Master Zhang sat down in his place nervously.
"What should I do to prepare for the parade this year?" Yang Cunzhong asked about another major incident in the military case.
The transfer of funds from the Great Sect is also a must-do every year for the soldiers in front of the palace, and it is necessary to select outstanding soldiers from the general forbidden army to serve as the elite of the front division of the palace, or to supplement the guards of Lin'an and the Imperial City.
This matter is done every year, and when asked about this matter, Mr. Zhang was not panicked, how to do it, and how he thought about it.
But his boss didn't think so, and was quick to disagree.
When Yang Cunzhong asked whether he could combine the transfer of funds from the Great Teaching Review with the selection of the school, Mr. Zhang was so anxious that he was sweating.
Although it is difficult for all parties to choose and balance the selection of generals, there is no need to make a big deal and only involve a limited number of people, but once it is mixed with the big teaching, the problem is very troublesome, because the more people involved, the more complicated things will be, and there are only a few people available in the military case, where do they have the energy to complete these two things together? If you don't get it right, it can lead to unpredictable problems.
This matter was absolutely unfeasible, and Mr. Zhang had to argue with his immediate boss and raise questions.
But Yang Cunzhong is not a person who can be easily convinced, and the two of them then had a back and forth analysis to analyze the pros and cons.
Next time, after all, it is a subordinate, and you can ask questions, but the final decision is still in the hands of your superiors, and the other party's official status is several levels higher than that it is impossible to cross.
In the end, Master Zhang could only reluctantly accept the reality and merge the two things into one, as for what unpredictable things would happen in the future, he couldn't do anything.
After that, the two discussed the daily affairs of the military case for a long time, and it was not until Yang Congyi was brought in to command the Yamen that it was temporarily stopped.
"Yang Congyi, the secretary of the subordinate officer and soldier case, has met the commander of the envoy!" As soon as he entered the office and saw the person in the purple official robe, Yang Congyi immediately bowed and saluted one zhang away.
"Yang Congyi? Very good, not only with the same surname as me, but also with the same name and surname as Yang Congyi, a famous general stationed in the northwest Dasanguan. Yang Cunzhong smiled slightly.
Yang Congyi didn't know what to reply, and he didn't dare to get close, so he simply didn't say anything, and stood there quietly.
When he was young, Yang Cunzhong asked, "Do you know what I called you here for?" ”
Yang Congyi didn't think about it, and immediately returned: "The lower officials don't know." ”
Yang Cunzhong nodded secretly, it was his subordinate duty not to think nonsense and guess his intentions, so he said: "I heard that you went to inspect the garrisons in western Zhejiang and Fujian on behalf of the military case?" ”
Yang Congyi looked at the position below the other party's bookcase, and replied respectfully: "Yes, Xiaguan left Lin'an in early May to verify the merits reported by various armies last year, and successively inspected the Chuzhou Dragoon, Nanjianzhou Shencai and Quanzhou Xiao Cavalry, and only recently rushed back to Lin'an from Quanzhou to resume his life. ”
"What are the results?" Yang Cunzhong asked.
Yang Congyi was taken aback, this question is not easy to answer, of course what he told Master Zhang is that there is no problem at all, the merit is true, after all, even the silver money has been collected, it is impossible to say that they have a problem! Besides, this is all from Master Zhang's hints. But if the commander asks questions now, if he does not tell the truth, he is deceiving the supreme leader, and the nature of the problem is completely different.
So he quietly glanced at Lord Zhang next to him, and saw that Lord Zhang didn't say anything.
And his small action was seen by Yang Cunzhong, and he only listened to him: "What is the result, your answer is, what to do with Zhang Bing's case?" ”
Yang Congyi immediately explained: "My lord, the official of the Yamen has already reported to Lord Zhang this morning. ”
"Can't you say it again?" Yang Cunzhong's tone changed slightly, and his voice was slightly cold.
Yang Congyi immediately felt the pressure, so he immediately replied: "Your Excellency forgives your sin, and the lower official will tell your adult about the verification results." ”
After a pause, he organized the language, and then said: "After leaving Lin'an in early May, Xia Guan went straight to the western state of Zhejiang, first went to the military camp of the Dragoon Army outside the city, checked the roster of the Dragoon Army's salary and money, and also took the roll call in public in the school field, and then was taken by the captain to the command Yamen, the commander of the Dragoon Army asked the lower officials which commanders reported the merits of the report are suspicious, the lower officials did not conceal it, after a question and answer, when the lower officials left the command Yamen to Longquan County and Qingyuan County, the dragoons joined the army to see off ten miles, and sent a local product when parting, The lower official did not know what it was at that time, so he accepted it, and later read it and realized that the local product he was talking about was 2,000 taels of silver banknotes, and in the verification it was found that the merits of the garrisons of the two counties were exaggerated. ”
The first time I saw the senior official, I was nervous for a while, so I told the process of the inspection from beginning to end, and when I saw that the commander had no intention of stopping, he finished talking in one go.
Yang Cunzhong had no words, and Master Zhang had no words, and the room was very quiet.
Yang Congyi continued: "After leaving Chuzhou, the lower officials immediately went to Nanjianzhou, and after entering the city, they directly entered the Yamen of the Divine Cavalry Army, and talked about the merits reported by the commanders on the suspicion of exaggeration, and the Divine Cavalry Commanders directly offered a price, a commander of 5,000 taels of silver, a total of 30,000 taels of silver, and after receiving the silver money, the lower officials did not verify the merits of the commanders on the spot. Then they went to Quanzhou, and they also went directly to the Yamen of the Xiao cavalry army, and the lower officials just said that they were on an errand for this trip, and when it came to the suspicion of exaggerating the meritorious service, they took out a wooden box full of silver money, and later counted, a total of 50,000 taels, because they had to return to Lin'an on time, the time was limited, and the meritorious deeds of the commanders in Quanzhou were not verified on the spot. ”
After speaking, Yang Congyi kept silent and stood on the spot, as for what the two officials think and how to deal with it, it all depends on them, he is a small soldier case secretary, he can't speak, and naturally he can't be the master.
"Good." After listening to the narration, Yang Cunzhong spit out two words in his mouth, and then said: "Lord Zhang, what do you think of the verification of the merits of the three armed forces this time?" ”
Zhang Dadao: "For decades, it has always been like this, there has been no war in the world for a long time, there is nowhere to make meritorious service, you can't be promoted, and it is more common for all armies to exaggerate their meritorious deeds, as long as it is not too fake, it will not be strictly reviewed as usual." As for the money collected, the military case will be handed over in full and used for the daily expenses of the various divisions in front of the palace, or for the payment of subsidies on holidays. ”
Yang Cunzhong did not object after hearing this, and said again: "Yang Congyi, a major incident has happened in Nanjianzhou, you can tell me about it." ”
As soon as Yang Congyi heard it, he knew what the commander of the capital was talking about, it was impossible for such a big case to happen in Nanjian Prefecture not to reach Fuzhou, once he arrived in Fuzhou, he must report to Lin'an, suddenly he didn't feel strange in his heart, besides, Lord Sun had already asked him once in the morning.
So he immediately replied, "Yes, my lord." ”
Then he will talk about what he has experienced in Nanjian Prefecture, from the encounter with bandits and robbers outside the city to the fact that the Divine Cavalry gave up the medicinal materials business, signed a tripartite transfer contract with Renhe Pharmacy and Meng Zhizhou, and then successfully concluded the case, until he left Nanjianzhou, only omitted the tripartite contract signed by the Divine Cavalry, Renhe Pharmacy and him to cooperate in the management of medicinal materials.
This brief description is very detailed, and it took more than an hour, and even the origin of the contradiction between the Divine Cavalry and the state government was also clearly explained, of course, they all relayed the statement of the Divine Cavalry and Meng Zhizhou, and they did not play at will.
When Yang Congyi finished speaking, the room fell silent again.
"Yang Congyi, what you said today is true?" Yang Cunzhong seemed to be a little unconvinced.
Yang Congyi immediately replied: "What the lower officials said is true, either they saw it with their own eyes or heard it with their own ears, and they were not relayed by a third party. ”
"According to what you said, you have seen the robbers and bandits pretending to be deserters of the Divine Cavalry, and after the twenty-three people you saved died in twenty-three murders, you first entered the Nanjian Prefecture Prefecture as the only witness, and assisted the Divine Cavalry to draw twelve bandit portraits, in order to assist the Divine Cavalry to solve the case, and returned to the Divine Cavalry Command Yamen again, and used the opportunity of the school roll call to identify the murderers suspected of robbery and murder and more than 30 masterminds on the spot, After some bargaining, the Divine Cavalry gave up the medicinal herb business, and the state government gave up pursuing the Divine Cavalry and closed the case in a hurry, right? After Yang Cunzhong went through the matter, he asked again.
"Yes, sir." Yang Congyi replied very simply.
"Since this matter has been turned into a small matter and has been solved by yourselves, why did the rumors spread to Lin'an?" Yang Cunzhong continued to ask.
"Xia Guan just returned to Lin'an, I don't know what rumors there are, and I don't know why there are rumors." After Yang Congyi returned to Lin'an, he spent most of his time at home outside the city, and he really didn't hear anything about Nanjianzhou, so he could only answer truthfully.
"There are rumors that many people in the front of the palace secretly took refuge in the important ministers of the court, and the big case of the divine cavalry implicating 28 lives in Nanjian Prefecture was a plot by someone with the help of the hands of the front division of the palace, with the intention of further weakening the forbidden army and weakening the front division of the palace. There are also rumors that the palace front division conspired with the local garrison forbidden army in Nanjian Prefecture to seize the power of the state capital, and after the defeat was exposed, they killed people and killed people. Some people even say that the former division of the palace secretly instructed the local garrison to do business in order to seek food and salary independence, and was not controlled by the state government, and then conspired to secess. Do you have an explanation for this? ”
Yang Cunzhong's tone was slightly cold, and his eyes were looking directly.
