Chapter 106: Meeting
Li Yongfang was kicked off by Mang Gultai because of his two front teeth, so he later had a new name in the Jurchens, Li Huoya.
I have to admit that Li Huoya's strategy is vicious enough, because whether it is governing the army or local government affairs, Ye Xun's level needs to be improved, so if Xiong Tingbi is squeezed away at this time, it will undoubtedly be worse for Ye Xun.
When Ye Xun arrived near Shenyang, Xiong Tingbi led a group of civil and military officials from the Liaodong Economic Strategy Division to greet him.
Today's Ye Xun is no longer the small town guard when he just left Tieling, according to Wanli's will, Ye Xun has the right to supervise the military and government of the entire Liaodong, although Xiong Tingbi has the highest official position, but even Xiong Tingbi himself knows that if he can't figure out this primary and secondary relationship, he is not far from the day of going home.
Fortunately, this Ye Gonggong is not only approachable and unassuming, but also a person with real skills, so for now, the civil and military officials in Liaodong are still happy to work with him.
Knowing that Xiong Tingbi came to greet him in person, Ye Xun got out of the carriage early, his external injuries had already healed, but his internal injuries could not be recovered in a day or two, but it did not affect his movements, and he looked like a normal person except for his face being a little pale.
Not to mention anything else, Ye Xun's low posture suddenly made him feel a little more good in the hearts of Liaodong Wenwu.
has learned that Ye Xun was stabbed, seeing Ye Xun under the car to greet him, Xiong Tingbi hurriedly beat the horse and walked a few steps, then jumped off the horse and hurriedly came to Ye Xun, and said with concern: "Ye Gonggong's injury has not healed, how can he get off the car, let's go to the car, let's talk while walking"
"Huh! It's okay, a little bit of a little injury isn't enough to worry about."
As Ye Xun spoke, he bowed to the civil and military officials who were following Xiong Tingbi.
"Father-in-law Ye, you are too polite, your body is still important, please get in the car!" ...
In a flattering and flattering voice, Ye Xun invited Xiong Tingbi to step into his luxurious carriage.
After getting into the carriage, seeing the luxurious layout inside, Xiong Tingbi couldn't help but smile and said: "I didn't expect Gonggong Ye to be such a person who can enjoy it, haha..."
"Huh! Someone else gave it, I'm thin-skinned, I'm embarrassed not to accept it"
Ye Xun smiled and asked Xiong Tingbi to sit down, and then poured him a cup of tea with his own hands, and the carriage started at the same time.
"My father-in-law is His Majesty's close attendant, what can Your Majesty explain when he returns to Beijing this time?"
When the negligence is over, it's time to get down to business, and the emperor's attitude is undoubtedly the most concerned thing for officials at all levels in Liaodong.
"Presumably Lord Xiong also thought of it, His Majesty urgently recruited me into Beijing this time, just because he didn't want to listen to those things on the fold, but wanted to know the current true state of Liaodong."
In Xiong Tingbi's waiting gaze, Ye Xun continued: "I have already suggested to Your Majesty that at this time, the Jiannu climate has been established, and it is impossible to win in a hurry, so what we have to do now is to hold the existing position on the one hand, and on the other hand, we should pay close attention to training the troops and raising the people, and at the same time cut off the supply of the Jurchens in all aspects, and when the time comes, we will strike a thunderous blow at the Jiannu."
Ye Xun's words can be said to be completely correct Xiong Tingbi's thoughts, he is very happy, really happy, happy that His Majesty the Emperor can send him such an assistant.
Said excitedly: "What did Your Majesty say?" ”
Ye Xun looked at Xiong Tingbi deeply and said, "Your Majesty has already agreed with my suggestion, but there is one more thing for me to convey to Lord Xiong."
Xiong Tingbi had already felt the deep meaning in Ye Xun's gaze, but he didn't understand what it was.
At the moment, he arched his hand in the direction of the capital, and said awe-inspiringly: "Father-in-law, please speak, and the lower officials will listen to you."
"Lord Xiong has offended a lot of people, right?"
Listening to Ye Xun's words, Xiong Tingbi was slightly stunned, and blurted out: "Is there anyone who can't offend people as an official?" Besides, the official line is right and the end, worthy of the court and the people, why are you afraid of those villains talking behind their backs? ”
Ye Xun sighed and said, "Lord Xiong, I know that you are a good official, and it is only appropriate for Liaodong to be governed by you, but your fiery temper really has to be changed."
Hearing Ye Xun say this, Xiong Tingbi's brows furrowed, and he said unhappily: "Could it be that my father-in-law wants this official to emulate those sycophants?" Forgive me, my father-in-law, this official can't do it"
Ye Xun sighed in his heart, yes! I've said it in vain, no wonder this guy is not welcome, he can't hear good and bad words, and it's really hard to work with him.
How easy is it to change people's tempers? Although Ye Xun is kind, he still doesn't know enough about Xiong Tingbi, if this guy is a person who knows how to be flexible, he will not take the initiative to resign because of someone else's impeachment in the end.
The atmosphere in the carriage was a little awkward, and it was not without the advantages of Xiong Tingbi, that is, he came and went straight, and his temper came and went quickly.
After a change of words, he said with a smile: "I can't hide it, the lower officials really admire the guerrilla warfare methods of their father-in-law!" The old slave is too ambitious, but the Jurchens are too few, and now they are exhausted by the attack of our small group of people, and the father-in-law is really smart, haha..."
Ye Xun also smiled, since Xiong Tingbi didn't listen to persuasion, then he couldn't help it, he couldn't make the blushing and thick neck that he was getting with him now.
"In fact, this kind of tactics was not created by me, as the adults said, the Jurchens are just such people, but they want to occupy so many places, as long as we strictly guard against them, and at the same time keep bleeding them, sooner or later they will be dragged to death."
"Oh yes, there's another thing I want to report to Lord Xiong, that is, I plan to go back to Tieling, so that you and I will be horns of each other, so that the old slave will not dare to act rashly."
Ye Xun didn't want to work with Xiong Tingbi, so why was Xiong Tingbi willing to stay in the same city with him? It's not about good or bad feelings, it's about worrying about influencing each other's authority.
Xiong Tingbi thought for a while before saying: "That's fine, if there is any need on the other side of Tieling, even if you mention it to the official, the official will definitely be the first to support the father-in-law."
"Then thank you Lord Xiong first, and on the way back, I was thinking, the imperial court said that there was a jackpot for killing the enemy, Lord Xiong to see if we can modify this military discipline slightly in Liaodong?"
In the past, in order to encourage the killing of the enemy, the imperial court counted the merits according to the head of the soldiers at the border gates after killing the enemy, and this move did achieve some results, but it also led to many phenomena of killing good people and risking merit later.
Xiong Tingbi didn't know the pros and cons of this, but when it came to change, he hadn't thought about it.
Immediately Qi said: "How does Gonggong Ye plan to modify it?" ”
"In the name of the Liaodong Economic Strategy Division, a decree was issued to kill Hu, but this order to kill Hu was only for the Jianzhou Jurchens, and the head received a reward according to the rank, starting from one tael of silver, with no upper limit, and those who could kill the old slave were rewarded with 100,000 taels of silver."
Listening to Ye Xun's words, Xiong Tingbi was suddenly taken aback, he knew that in fact, there were a lot of silver prizes issued by the imperial court, but there was not much left in the hands of the soldiers.
Throughout Ye Xun's debut, he has been extremely generous to his soldiers and people, so his promise will definitely be fulfilled, so so how many silver taels did he have?
This question quickly made Xiong Tingbi make up for it on his own, this little eunuch, I'm afraid he has gained a lot in the Li family! ...
