Chapter 82: Master and Slave (Second Update, Asking for Support)
"A spring rain is warm, an autumn rain is a cold", this spring rain is getting warmer and warmer, especially after April, the officials and people in the north began to look forward to the rain, because the spring rain can determine the autumn harvest. It is precisely because of this that after a few rains in April, the people of the northern land finally breathed a sigh of relief, with these rains, unless God does not open his eyes and does not give a drop of water after the summer, otherwise the harvest in this land will not be bad.
At noon, the clouds in the sky became thicker and thicker, and the clouds were as low as if they were about to press down on the roof of the house, and the rain soon fell, and it was very heavy, not a spring drizzle, but a heavy rain.
Naturally, there is no business in such weather. The vendors who had already left the stalls packed up and rushed back, only the shops on the side of the road were still open, but the guys and shopkeepers were very idle.
A spring rain has given people hope for the coming year.
Today should be a good year.
Riding on a horse, wrapped in a tweed cloak to block the rain, when the rain fell on his body, Suo Etu looked at the rain, and then thought in his heart, for the Qing Kingdom, which is only one place in Shaanxi, or this year's natural disasters, it is not good, but in recent years, it can be regarded as God's blessing, although occasionally there is a natural disaster in some states and counties, but in general, the border of Shaanxi is still smooth, which also allows more than 200,000 bannermen and 300,000 slaves and maids in Shaanxi to eat food, of course, This also has a lot to do with the Shaanxi military tun - not to mention that in recent years, the killing of people and plundering women has plundered millions of acres of ripe land from those religious people, that is, outside the city of Xi'an, there are no less than 2 million acres of military tuns of the Eight Banners on both sides of the Wei River, after all, this Shaanxi has been rampant for decades, coupled with the killing when the army entered the customs to pacify the Shaanxi Liukou, Shaanxi can be said to be a hundred miles without hearing people's voices, and the four borders are barren, such a big Shaanxi, the population is only more than two million. If it weren't for the implementation of the military tun in the Han Dynasty, how could the current grain be used without worry.
"That Wang Huaxing is indeed a talent."
Thinking of the person who advocated the military camp at the beginning, the corners of Suo Etu's mouth raised.
"The emperor will also use people, a few years ago, he made friends with such a cloth clothes."
When mentioning the emperor, Suo Etu's expression looked a little proud, because the emperor is his son-in-law, just two months ago, his second daughter married the emperor, and he is also the national abbot, of course, now he is still the emperor's guard, but in the future, he will become an important minister in the court, it will be a matter of time.
Just the father's body...... Thinking of his father's increasingly sick body, the smile on Suo Etu's face gradually retracted, in case his father's body couldn't hold on......
Fortunately, the emperor is already in power.
According to the rules of Emperor Sejong, the big wedding can be pro-government, two months ago, after the emperor's wedding, as an auxiliary minister, Sonny went to the fold and asked the emperor to pro-government, in this regard, neither Sukh Saha nor Suppilon did not object, and even in the past few years, they did not dare to have the slightest change, after all, the death of Ao Bai reminded them of what is the way of the monarch and the minister.
Although, no one knows whether Ao Bai was killed by the emperor or not, but who knows?
Why did you die so coincidentally?
At that time, although Ao Bai was an auxiliary minister, but he had not yet had time to urgently cultivate his cronies, if it was a few years later, who knew that Ao Bai would not be a usurper?
Of course, these thoughts were only fleeting in Suo Etu's mind, and then they were pressed in the bottom of his heart.
The master is the master, and no matter what you do, you are the master!
From the palace gate to the front of the master's hall, it was only a few hundred steps, because the old yamen was always too small, and when Suo Etu came to the imperial study, the cloak on his body was already soaked. When the chief eunuch and adviser in the palace saw him come in, he greeted him with a smile on his face, and took the initiative to take Suo Etu's cloak and said with a smile.
"Good my grandfather! The slave and maid were about to deliver the decree, but it was raining heavily, and the master said that Suo Etu did not need to come in. Since it has come, the slave will repay the master......"
Saying that, the cat ran in with his feet on his feet.
"There is labor, there is labor......"
As a guard, he naturally knew that this consultant was a close confidant of the emperor, and the consultant was a eunuch of the Shunzhi Dynasty, and he had a high level of education, was cautious, and handled things smoothly. For the emperor, it is almost equivalent to a wise elder who can guide him and solve problems, so the emperor will regard him as a confidant, and the emperor often calls him "Gu Eunuch", and rarely calls him by his name, which to a certain extent reflects the emperor's respect for the consultant, and this kind of treatment is unique among the eunuchs in the palace. Sometimes, Suo Etu even felt that the attack on Ao Bai back then was likely to come from the advice of the consulting firm. After all, at that time, there were really not many people around the emperor.
Seeing a few guards standing upright, and about to say a few words of greeting, the advisor had already walked over, laughing as he walked.
"Suo Ye, the master called in!"
Suo Etu only nodded slightly to the two guards, and hurriedly followed, walking towards the study with the consultant, and as soon as he arrived at the door, he heard Xuan Ye's voice inside:
"Suo's Tu? Come on in! ”
"Wow!"
Suo Etu hurriedly agreed loudly, and then stepped in, stepped into the imperial study, and kowtowed.
"The slave knocks on the master...... Greetings to the master! ”
Although it is true that his daughter is married to the emperor, he is still a slave of the emperor, after that, Suo Etu raised his head, only to see Xuan Ye sitting on the dragon chair, the table in front of him was piled with folds, and there was a cinnabar pen and inkstone next to it.
Two years ago, Tuhai led the troops into Hami, and drew Hami in a war, which can be regarded as playing the momentum of the Great Qing Kingdom, of course, the most important thing is to open up the passage to the Western Regions, and also made him a famous general of the Great Qing Kingdom.
"Get up and sit down next to the sea of pictures."
Xuan Ye didn't look at Suo Etu, but looked out the window and looked out of his mind, and after a while, he turned his face and asked Tu Haidao.
"So, there is a constant conflict between Dzungar and Yarkand right now, right?"
At this time, Xuan Ye was meeting with Suo Etu, and when Suo Etu looked closely, the emperor's face was tired, and the circles around his eyes were dark, obviously he must not have slept well in the past few days, after all, now all the burdens of the Great Qing Kingdom are pressed on him, and no one can easily put it on him. However, Suo Etu only glanced at it and hurriedly lowered his head, and Tuhai on the side said yes.
"Yes! Since the minions led the troops to capture Hami two years ago, it is convenient for the Western Regions to widely spread the eyeliner for interrogation, and two years ago, Yarkand Khan Abdullah died in a foreign land on the way back from the Hajj. Abdullah's eldest son, Yaolevas, succeeded to the throne, and at the beginning of the year, Yaolevas was murdered. He was succeeded by his younger brother Sima Yi. Over the past two years, the Yarkand Khanate's rule has shrunk dramatically. Tashkent, Fergan and other places successively seceded from the Yarkand Khanate. And Junggar is also eyeing it...... That's all we know for now. ”
Xuan Ye let out a "hmm", and after a while, he asked again.
"Then in your opinion, should my Qing Dynasty unite with Yarkand Khan, or Zhungar?"
"The minister thinks that he can unite with Yarkand Khan, after all, now that Junggar is eyeing him, they can feel the crisis even more, and they must be willing to cooperate with our Qing Dynasty, and its strength seems to be damaged, but the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, as for Jungar, at the moment it is only one part of Vetera, and there are still three departments in Vetera, including Heshute Department, Dulbert Department, and Huite Department. Although Junggar is strong among the three, if he can't control the entire territory of Oirat, he will definitely not invade the south, in the opinion of the minister, Junggar wants to destroy Yaerqiang, without twenty years, it will never work, even if I have the help of the Qing Dynasty, it will take at least a few years, but if I join forces with Yarkand, I only need to destroy Zhun Geer, and I can control the entire territory of Oirat! ”
In the past two years, Tuhai has been leading troops in Hami, and he has become more and more familiar with the Western Regions, and the Manchu and Han ministers in the same court have also become more and more aware of the Western Regions, and Suo Etu is no exception.
"Suo Etu, what do you think?"
The emperor's question made Suo Etu stunned, he was just a guard, but since the emperor asked, he had to say.
"General Tu, this is a combination with Yarkand, I'm afraid it's a little inappropriate, the reason why I used troops in Hami two years ago was not because the Hehuang rebels fled to Hami, and the king of Hami took refuge with the Hehuang rebels because they were all fellow religions, and accused me of killing innocents indiscriminately, so we took the opportunity to lay down Hami, in the past two years, our relationship with Yarkand is not very good?"
After all, whether it is in Shaanxi or Hami, the Qing Dynasty has not killed many people, because of the fear of retaliation from the Ming Dynasty, the people who killed were all Semu people, killing their Ding and plundering their wives and daughters as slaves, and the military hearts of the eight banners of the slaves and maids were stable, but there were many conflicts with Yarkand.
"It is precisely because of the same situation that I join forces with it, so I will not believe in Zhugger, in this way, it is natural to attack it unprepared, and it is ......"
Tu Hai's voice was lowered, and then he said.
"Yarkand Khan is divided into the White Mountain faction and the Black Mountain faction, and there are constant contradictions between the two factions, compared to my Qing Dynasty, whether it is Yarkand or Junggar, the troops are extremely limited, and the troops led are only 30,000 or 50,000 people, if Yarkand and I will ally to the north to crusade against Junggar, the emperor can directly send a partial division, and take advantage of the emptiness in the rear, cooperate with the Baishan faction to take Yarkand directly, so that the Western Regions can naturally be pacified."
Tu Hai's suggestion made Xuan Ye nod, and then said.
"If this can be the case, it is not a bad strategy, but this Yaerqiang is constantly contradicting me, how can he be willing to ally with my Ming Dynasty? A joint crusade against Dzungar? ”
Xuan Ye's rhetorical question made Tu Hai smile, and then took out something quite mysteriously, and then said to the emperor.
"Your Majesty, if you use this thing, you will be able to make Yarkand willing to use it for me!"
