Volume 8 Chapter 94 Hate the Late
Shao Jiechun, the governor of Sichuan, fell into the anti-thief Zhang Xianzhong's plan to divert the tiger from the mountain, and led the army to rescue Kuizhou Mansion, which led to the emptiness of the defense of Chengdu City, which was easily taken by the anti-thieves, and the family of Zhu Zhishu, the king of Shu, was also killed, and the news was transmitted back to the capital, and the court was in an uproar.
Although the King of Shu is not very good to the common people, but it is famous for its obedience to the orthodoxy of the royal family, the emperors of all dynasties have praised it, and the name of the virtuous king has long been spread all over the world.
There is such a big mistake, Sichuan Governor Shao Jiechun will definitely be dismissed from his post and investigated, and escorted back to the capital to ask for the crime, the question is who will take over him to exterminate the thief?
Chongzhen's first thought was Zhang Bin, because every time Zhang Bin was able to win, he would fight against the thief, and there would be no problem in sending Zhang Bin there.
Soon, however, he dismissed the idea.
I, can I only rely on Zhang Bin?
He is unhappy in his heart, and he wants to suppress Zhang Bin, and he has to rely on Zhang Bin every time he has something, isn't this a brain disease!
He didn't think he was sick in the brain, so he decided not to use Zhang Bin this time!
There are so many civil servants and military generals in the Ming Dynasty, he still doesn't believe it, and he can't clean it up without Zhang Bin, a thief.
Who doesn't need Zhang Bin to use?
The governor of this province doesn't have to be Tingtui, it's no problem for him to appoint one himself, the main problem is that he doesn't have a suitable candidate in his head.
Chongzhen thought for a while, but he really couldn't think of a suitable candidate, so he simply went down with an edict and asked Xue Guoguan to recommend one to come up, this Xue Guoguan is a secretary of the ministry, a candidate for governor, it should not be difficult for him.
A candidate for governor is indeed difficult for Xue Guoguan, whoever bids high will give it to whom!
He thinks that at this time, Jiannu has already extinguished the fire, just a gang of thieves, a small meaning, just transfer tens of thousands of elites can be exterminated, whoever goes is the same, the key issue is money, this governor's position, the highest price gets!
As soon as the news spread, that night, the gate of Xue Guoguan's house was crowded with people again, of course, these people were not here to throw rotten eggs, let alone to splash dung, they were here to compete for the position of governor.
Now most of the officials in the DPRK and China are roughly the same idea as Xue Guoguan, just 20,000 anti-thieves, and casually transfer tens of thousands of elites over, then it is not enough to be caught, if this is 20,000 Jiannu, it is estimated that no one dares to go, but there are many people who dare to go to 20,000 anti-thieves.
This is a beautiful difference, you can easily get a big achievement, and you can run rampant in the country of abundance for three years, regardless of the military, government and civil affairs, how to toss, how to toss, three years Qingzhi County is 100,000 snowflakes of silver, three years of governor, this profit is unimaginable.
Xue Guoguan didn't expect that so many people would dare to be interested in the position of governor, he was busy for a while, and it was not until about midnight that he selected all the competitors, and finally, he chose Shi Fei, the veteran of the Imperial Palace.
This Shi Wei has been the imperial history of the Imperial Court for more than ten years, and he has patrolled Huaiyang, and he has also been the imperial history of the salt patrol, this qualification is enough, and the most important thing is that he bids high!
This guy is 100,000 taels of silver as soon as he opens his mouth, and this is just an addition, and the serious price is far more than that.
In other words, it's just a royal history, and being able to take out 100,000 taels is already up to the sky, how could Xue Guoguan believe that he could come up with more money?
This Shi Yi is not an ordinary person, originally he was a cadre under Wang Yongguang, the boss of the Qi Party, who was famous for making money, and he was the number one person in the eunuch party.
This guy was bold at the beginning, he swallowed more than 100,000 taels of dirty silver in the treasury when he patrolled Huaiyang, and when he was patrolling the salt imperial history, he even put all the more than 200,000 taels of silver stored by the former salt patrol imperial historian Zhang Ximing into his own pocket!
At that time, Wang Yongguang was full of praise for him, but unfortunately, Wang Yongguang fell soon, otherwise this guy would have jumped up a long time ago.
It is said that the Qi party in the court has been cleaned up at this time, why hasn't Wang Yongguang's cadre been wiped out?
It can only be said that this guy is lucky, he is a good cadre under Wang Yongguang, but Wang Yongguang died long ago when Zhang Bin cleaned up the Qi Party, and the Qi Party was in power at that time, Xie Sheng, Xie Majesty's brothers and Zhang Zhifa, and he didn't have much to do with the three of them, and he was still from Qingyuan, Baoding, Beizhili, and he was not from Shandong at all, so he was lucky to escape a catastrophe and stayed in the court.
The reason why he took out 100,000 taels of silver to bribe Xue Guoguan this time, and promised to give Xue Guoguan a larger sum of silver later, was not because he was hot-headed, because he knew that the Shu Wangfu was very rich, and the Shu King had ruled the country of Tianfu for nearly 250 years, even if he only made 10,000 taels of silver a year, it would be more than 2 million taels!
Can this Shu King only make 10,000 taels of silver a year?
It is clear that it is impossible, and the tenant rent alone is more than that!
Therefore, he boasted about Haikou and gave Xue Guoguan at least one million taels of silver!
Xue Guoguan was convinced of Shi Fei's ability to make money, and this guy could speak well, and he would definitely be able to fool Chongzhen over, so he drafted a recital that night, and praised Shi Bi to the sky, and the next morning after the morning he sent the recital directly to the imperial study.
As soon as Chongzhen saw the twists and turns, he immediately gave a thumbs up and praised it, talent, I didn't expect that there would be such a talent in the court, who has been diligent in the Imperial Procuratorate for more than ten years, but because he is not a party or a group, he was not promoted!
Well, obviously, he was fooled, of course Xue Guoguan knew his preferences, and the twists were tailored to his appetite, and he would naturally feel that this Shi Yi was a rare talent.
However, such a big thing as encircling and suppressing anti-thieves can't be settled with a fold, although Chongzhen is not a stupid hat, no matter how good it is, then you have to meet the real person, if this guy is an embroidered pillow, then there is really no place for his face.
For the sake of insurance, he still summoned Shi Wei to the imperial study and asked carefully to see if this Shi Wei really had the ability and what was the best way to encircle and suppress the thieves.
The result can be imagined, this Shi Wei has already made a good draft, and the answer to Chongzhen's question is like a stream, and the flickering Chongzhen clapped his hands vigorously, shouting "Hate the night with Qing"!
Anyway, how did this guy fool Chongzhen, he can fool Chongzhen like this.
In fact, it is very simple, what he said is similar to Zhang Bin's previous strategy against anti-thieves.
The combat power of encircling and suppressing anti-thieves is not the most important, speed is the most important, because the anti-thieves are almost all rabble, and the real cavalry that can fight is only that little cavalry, and the main cavalry of anti-thieves is not at fighting, but fleeing, so the most important thing in encircling and suppressing anti-thieves is speed, and only by chasing them can they be wiped out.
Shi Wei directly proposed to transfer Guangning Iron Cavalry to encircle and suppress the anti-thieves, anyway, at this time, Jiannu also died down, and Guanning Iron Cavalry was idle.
Sure enough, it's a talent!
Chongzhen, who was fooled by him, was even ordered to promote him to the governor of Sichuan, and transferred Guan Ning Tieqi to help him encircle and suppress the thieves!
