Chapter Ninety-Two: The Arrival House
On April 28, heavy snow fell (Xiaoice period, abnormal weather. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć Today is the deadline for Chongzhen to set Guan Shanyue to leave Beijing for his post.
These days, he has made some friends in the capital, but they are all imperial histories who have no real power, and they are all running for his reputation. And those powerful officials in the DPRK and China are very utilitarian, and when they see him, they are as far away from him as if they are hiding from the plague god, and they are not willing to look at him more, for fear of getting bad luck. Most of them, who have a keen sense of politics, feel that the current Banzai Lord has abandoned him, so why bother to meet a person who is useless to them. Even those who were slow to react deliberately alienated him, it was because Wu Xiang's official position was still the same, and he was pushed to the end by Chongzhen.
The prefect doesn't pay attention to these people who are officials in Beijing, let alone a small Qipin county order. However, this also made Guan Shanyue see through the warmth and coldness of the world, and made him realize that the ancients who had read the books of sages were not all gentlemen.
What Guan Shanyue didn't expect was that it was Wang Chengen, the great eunuch who had never been treated by orthodoxy, who came to the post house to give him food.
He felt that dealing with non-gentlemen like Wang Chengen was much more enjoyable than dealing with those hypocrites. These days, as soon as they are free, the two of them get together, and they look at each other like Wang Ba looking at mung beans, and they quickly get acquainted, and then they call each other brothers and sisters within a few days. It seems that this real villain without disguise is sometimes much cuter than the hypocrite who surrounds you all day long, but leaves you at critical moments or even falls into the well.
Wang Chengen took the wine glass and drank it all, looked at Guan Shanyue with a sad face on the other side of the wine table, and said with a smile: "Brother Guan, sometimes what you see with your eyes in this world may not be true, I really want to play hide and seek with you like a naughty child, how can I let you find it so easily." Don't talk about it far away, let's just say that a few days ago, the noon gate court staff, what's the matter, brother, how powerful I am, if it weren't for the emperor's words to punish Wu Xiang first, don't make too much trouble, those small people under my command would have beaten him to death and vented his anger for your brother. Who are our masters, if he Wu Xiang dares to frame your brother, we will dare to ask for his life! Come, brother drink! ā
Guan Shanyue sullenly picked up the wine glass and touched it with Wang Chengen, "Come, brother drink, brother, I will toast you." ā
Wang Chengen shook his head, raised his neck and drank the wine in the cup cleanly, smacked his lips with an unfinished expression, and said with a smile: "Brother Guan, brother, I have to persuade you a few words, you can't be so depressed, if you are so depressed, you won't have much success in this life, you won't want to be a useless person, right?" Your current situation is much better than when my brother and I first entered the palace, and my eyes are black. A raw melon and egg, which is not welcome everywhere. I'm obsessed with how old you are, and I can see this person more thoroughly than you, and my perception for so many years is that this person, when you are beautiful, there are people who give you the icing on the cake, but when you are most in pain and need help, no one comes to help you. Think about it, is this the case nine times out of ten? ā
Guan Shanyue thought about the time she had been in the capital, and nodded thoughtfully, "What my brother said is that there are many icing on the cake, and there are few charcoal in the snow, and there are those who fall into the well, and things in the world are probably like this." Hey, it's not that society is too complicated, it's that my brother and I'm too stupid. ā
Wang Chengen slammed his chopsticks on the table, and seemed to disagree with Guan Shanyue's point of view, "Wrong, Brother Guan, if you say that, you are very wrong, you kind of people are not stupid, but too kind and too gentleman." It's that the people around him are too snobbish and put their own interests first. Don't look at your youth, you are just a little talent, but those who read the books of the sages and sages are studying just to seek fame, not for the country and the people, even if they read the books of the sages for a lifetime, they will not reach the realm of people like you, because there is a huge amount in your chest...... There is a sense of righteousness. ā
Guan Shanyue looked surprised, although he knew that Cao Huachun taught these eunuchs to read and write, but it didn't sound like Wang Chengen could say it, he was clearly going to say "Haoran righteousness" just now but forgot not to say it, "Eh, my brother is too fond of my brother, these are really my brother's heartfelt words?" ā
Wang Chengen was able to achieve the position of the celebrant and eunuch, relying on his words and feelings, he immediately realized that he had lost his words. In fact, these words were all said to him by Chongzhen that day, he drank wine, and said bald mouth for a while, and said it all. He hurriedly put aside the topic, "Brother Guan, drink, drink." ā
Guan Shanyue saw that he deliberately put aside the topic, and he was unwilling to delve into it. He is now complaining, and it is not easy for an insider in the system not to probe the mouth.
He took a sip of stuffy wine, and pretended to be unable to help but complain, "Brother Wang, the saint is also a little too unkind." If I don't let my family take me, I will admit it, but why don't you even go back to Daning Road? ā
Wang Chengen raised his wine glass and said with a meaningful smile: "I knew that you kid would not be able to bear it, brother, I came here today to relieve you, but I risked killing my head." After speaking, he took out a small note from the cylindrical handle of the dust whisk he was carrying, and mysteriously handed it to Guan Shanyue's hand.
Guan Shanyue absentmindedly took the note and complained: "Everyone is getting better and better, but I'm better and more confused." Brother, my former wat was ivory, but now it is a locust wood. used to be a military attache under the control of the second-rank military department, and now he is a seventh-rank civil official under the control of the official department. The official uniform has changed from a scarlet robe to a green robe, and the complement used to be a mighty lion, but now it has become an emu (commonly known as a purple mandarin duck). In the past, it was 782 stones, but now it is 84 stones, which is not even a fraction of what it used to be. Brother Wang, what is this, why is it so tightly sealed? ā
Wang Chengen saw that Guan Shanyue hadn't opened it for a long time, so he raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Be a little patient, this is a good thing, dismantle it slowly, don't be in a hurry." ā
Guan Shanyue had to disassemble it lightly, and it took a long time to open the note full of fly's heads, and read it to his eyes: "Zhao Ruixue Daning is hereby awarded the position of commander of Daning, Zheng Erpin, sealed the guard, commanded the secretary, and commanded the seal of Daningdu." Qin Xiaoman Daning was awarded the command of the same position, from the second grade, the general of Zhenguo, responsible for military training. Awarded Wei Liangqing Daning the command of the position, is the third product, and is named the captain of Changqing Che, responsible for the development of wasteland. Awarded Liu Wenxiu Daning experience in the division, is the sixth product, Fengyun cavalry captain. Awarded the command of Saiduo Yanwei, was the third product, and was sealed as the captain of the light car. Awarded the post of commander of Tai Ningwei, was the third grade, and was sealed as the captain of the light car. Awarded the command of Qi Fu Yuwei, the third grade, and the lieutenant of the light car. Awarded the color of Buteng is a thousand households, is five products, and is a lieutenant. Li Dingguo was awarded the post of deputy thousand households, from the fifth grade, flying cavalry captain. ...... award"
He squinted his eyes and read for a long time before he finished reading the long list, and when he finished reading, Wang Chengen threw the note into the brazier in the room and burned it to ashes.
"Hehe, Brother Guan, how is it, now I feel comfortable, is it as sweet as eating honey? Don't look at the old age, all you can do is this big deal. These have all passed the review of the Military Selection Department of the Ministry of War, and the edicts above the fifth rank and the edicts below the sixth rank have been stamped with the seal of the Lord of Long Life, and the appointment documents are also in the celebrant supervisor. Brother, I took advantage of the convenience of the eunuch Bingbi to get such an opportunity, and it was thanks to my ability to remember that I was able to transcribe it to my younger brother. But this is the first time I've done this, brother, and I'm risking my head. ā
"Brother's good, brother, I have it in my heart!" Guan Shanyue closed her stunned mouth and nodded, "I'll be obedient, what do you want to do?" I was spared alone, and a female official was appointed, and I was both of them at once. With the official appointment of the imperial court, their waists are stiff now. ā
However, after thinking about it, he felt that something was wrong, "Hey, it's not right, Brother Wang, how can Long Live Lord be so clear about my Daning's personnel situation?" ā
Wang Chengen grinned, "Haha, how big is your Daning realm, how many people are there, how many soldiers are there, and so on, long live these things, Lord Long Live is really black-eyed, and he doesn't know anything." But he knows this person better than anyone else. ā
Guan Shanyue's head was full of question marks, he thought that all the secrecy measures were in place enough, and he couldn't help asking, "Why?" ā
Wang Chengen took a sip of wine, shook his head like a lion, and said with a smile: "Hehe, why?" You don't want to think about why Lord Long Live let Wei Zhongxian and Father-in-law Wei go so easily. ā
Guan Shanyue felt as if a thunder sounded in his ears, and he couldn't accept the conjecture in his heart, "Huh!? Brother Wei is the internal response sent to Daning by the Long Live Lord. ā
Wang Chengen took a bite of food, chewing and shaking his head, "No, no, no, this brother, you have wronged Grandpa Wei, how could Lord Long Live deign to reach a compromise with Grandpa Wei when he was angry." It's someone else. ā
After being silent for a long time, Guan Shanyue gritted her teeth and scolded: "The spicy one next door turned out to be Wei Liangqing, the bastard, I said that this product just looks honest, but in fact, he is wilted, with bad water in his stomach." ā
Wang Chengen pursed his lips and smiled, picked up his wine glass, and said, "Brother, you are really smart enough, you can guess who is right and who is wrong at one time." However, you put your heart in your stomach, in order to save the life of Father-in-law Wei, Wei Liangqing donated all his savings over the years into the internal funds of the Long Live Lord, and promised to report the situation of Daning to the Long Live Lord once within three years if he did not die. Coupled with the last words of the first emperor when he was dying, this made Long Live Lord go to kill and save the lives of the Wei family. Because, Long Live Lord's request is only one time, and his opportunities have been exhausted. This last glass of wine, I wish my brother Lingbao County, Henan Province, all the best! Come on, it. ā
