The matter of asking for a reward for Zhang Lian's meritorious service and punishing Shen Xi for his crimes was pressed down by Emperor Hongzhi at the same time, and only after Shen Xi and the envoys of the Buddha Langji returned to the capital together, there would be a matter of Щщшlā

At this time, a battle in Beiguan made Emperor Hongzhi and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty nervous.

The leader of the Tatar Menggoljin tribe, Huo Si, led more than 7,000 people to kill Wei Yuanwei, and the guerrilla generals Wang Gao and Wei Yuanwei both commanded Deng Hong to lead the army to meet the attack, and was defeated in an ambush, more than 900 people were killed in battle, and Datong was in a hurry.

The Menggol Lejin tribe where the fire sieve is located is a branch of Dayan Khan Batu Munk, but the tribal structure on the grassland is different from the Ming Dynasty monarch and minister system, even if Batu Munch will become the co-lord of the grassland in the future, he has not yet completed the unification of the various tribes of the steppe, but he just has such a name.

Zhu Youzhu hurriedly summoned three scholars of the Auxiliary Political University to the Qianqing Palace to discuss important matters, and at this time, although Liu Jian was on sick leave, he had to take staggering steps to the palace to discuss matters. Obviously, Emperor Hongzhi was afraid that the Mongols would drive straight into the Central Plains like Warat, and let him follow in the footsteps of his grandfather Yingzong.

The three cabinet scholars, all of whom were born in Hanlin, read a lot of history on weekdays, and were not good at the art of war at all, and in the face of the military aircraft that Emperor Hongzhi said, they could not have a practical and effective plan, but Xie Qian answered the question like a fluent on this day, which impressed Liu Jian and Li Dongyang.

“…… Your Majesty should send someone to pacify the army in order to calm the hearts of the army. The method of defense lies in holding the left and right roads of Daqingshan, so that the Tatars are forced to fight, and set up tripwires and firearms around Daqingshan, and after a few formations, the Tatar cavalry will inevitably retreat, and then set up an ambush on Zuoyundao with 3,000 cavalry of Weiyuanwei, and will surely win a complete victory! ”

Xie Qian's suggestion made Zhu Youzhu dumbfounded, Xie Qian actually knew the terrain around Beiguan well, as if he had personally done field research.

Zhu Youzhu asked, "Has Mr. Xie ever been to Wei Yuanwei before?" ”

Xie Qian was stunned and immediately shook his head. Zhu Youzhu continued to ask, "Why is Mr. so familiar with the boundary of Datong Mansion?" ”

Xie Qian smiled bitterly and said, "Back to Your Majesty, the old minister just made some preparations in advance, if Your Majesty thinks it is nonsense, although there is no need to adopt it." ”

Zhu Youzhu smiled and said: "Where, I think this response is very good, it is rare to have such a sympathetic person as Mr. Xie, Mr. Xie is not only knowledgeable, but also familiar with the art of war, it is really my great luck." ”

Zhu Youji's evaluation of Xie Qian was too high, which made Xie Qian feel very embarrassed, and Liu Jian and Li Dongyang next to him also looked at him with curious eyes.

This old boy usually talks eloquently, why does he talk so loudly about resisting the Tatars today?

In fact, Xie Qian's proposals were not from his idea at all, but just to apply the matter that he suppressed in the first year of the matter of being guarded by Emperor Shen Xi's Shangshu Emperor Yanbeiguan.

At that time, Xie Qian thought that Shen Xi's edge was too exposed, so he took the initiative to suppress Shangshu, but after that, Shen Xi gave it to Wang Shouren as a favor, so he was blamed by him.

But in the end, Wang Shouren only took the part about guarding against the northwest and the Warat people, and selectively ignored the Dayan Department that was friendly with the Ming Dynasty.

This time, when he heard that it was not the Warat people who invaded Beiguan but a grassland tribe under the Dayan Ministry, Xie Qian was surprised and at the same time, he quickly found out Shen Xi's transcript, which made him feel incredible after reading it...... The direction of the frontier, the deployment of troops and horses, and the lax defense of the frontier were exactly the same as Shen Xi's prediction in the Shangshu, and it can be said that if he presented this Shangshu to the emperor in the first year and ordered the imperial court to take precautions as soon as possible, then there would be no defeat today.

Xie Qian learned from the pain, and hurriedly made up for Shen Xi's sparse content, which happened to be used as a reply before the monarch when he met Zhu Youji.

Now it was regarded by the emperor and the other two as if these suggestions came from his mouth.

Zhu Youzhu hurriedly asked again: "I don't know who Mr. Xie wants to go to defend against the enemy?" ”

Xie Qian wanted to say that it was most appropriate to let Shen Xi go, since that kid could predict today's battle situation in advance, wouldn't he already have a plan in his heart?

But Xie Qian also knew that even if he told the emperor that this Shangshu was written by Shen Xi, it would not do any good except to expose the matter of him suppressing Shangshu and punish him...... The emperor would not send Shen Xi, a fledgling boy, to defend against the enemy, and at this time, Shen Xi was still a "criminal minister" waiting to be released.

"Back to Your Majesty, the minister thinks that it is most suitable for Ping Jiangbo to go, he is familiar with the art of war, has a stable personality, and will definitely be able to repel the Tatars." Xie Qiandao.

Chen Rui, the Pingjiang Bo mentioned by Xie Qian, was the eldest son of Chen Yu, the founder of the Ming Dynasty, after Chen Xuan, the Duke of Yiguo, and in the early years of Chenghua, he divided 3,000 battalions and regimental battalions. Moved to Huaiyang, Governor Caoyun. The stone sluice of the Huai River estuary and the north and south sluices of Jining water diversion were built. Build embankments and dredge springs, and repair waste falls. In total, fourteen years, dozens of chapters. In the sixth year of Hongzhi, the river decided Zhang Qiu, and Feng Saizhi was governed. Also, add 200 stones, and add the prince and the prince.

Zhu Youzhu thought about it and asked Liu Jian and Li Dongyang what they meant.

Liu Jian and Li Dongyang did not have the same insight as Xie Qian, and they all agreed with the matter of letting the Xunguisu general Pingjiang Bo Chen Rui go to the edge of the town.

Xie Qian was at the bottom of the three elders, but this time he was like the first assistant, for the Hongzhi Emperor, together with his suggestions and strategies, Zhu Youzhu adopted, and the Hongzhi Emperor even asked the historian to record Xie Qian's countermeasures just now, and handed them over to Chen Rui, instructing Chen Rui to fight with the Tatars according to the strategy.

“…… In terms of supervising the army, let Jin Fu go, and at the same time order Xu Jin, the head of the household department, to be the commander of military affairs, and be fully responsible for armaments, grain and grass, there must be no mistakes! "Emperor Hongzhi finally issued the imperial order.

After the matter was settled, Xie Qian walked out of the palace with some uncertainty.

Xie Qian thought to himself: "In the past, I always felt that Shen Xiaoyou was underqualified, and sometimes he seemed to be too eager for quick success, but now it seems that his worries are justified." If I had reported earlier, then my 900 soldiers of the Ming Dynasty would not have to spill blood on the battlefield, but I misunderstood him and did not speak for him when he was in trouble. ”

Li Dongyang didn't know Xie Qian's thoughts, and after leaving the palace gate, he walked to Xie Qian's side and laughed and teased: "Yu Qiao is well prepared today, and I almost can't recognize that the person who is in the palace is you." ”

Xie Qian said: "If everything happens to me, then should Brother Bin abdicate earlier and make way for Xian?" ”

Li Dongyang laughed when he heard this, this kind of joke can only be made by him and Xie Qian, Liu Jian is too old-fashioned to joke after all, but Li and Xie have a good relationship, and they don't mind who lives above whom. It's just that logically speaking, Li Dongyang is the second assistant, and Xie Qian is the third assistant, if Liu Jian is the second, then the first assistant is Li Dongyang.

……

……

The emperor's decree went down, Pingjiang Bo Chen Rui was the general of Jinglu, the chief military officer, the eunuch Jin Fu supervised the army, and the household servant Xu Jin was the commander of military affairs, and the three of them went to Beiguan together to resist the invasion of the Tatar fire sieve department.

Because the news of the capital is relatively lagging behind, and the first invasion of the Central Plains by the fire sieve is only tentative, after the ambush victory, the fire sieve is afraid that the Ming Dynasty soldiers and horses will kill, but they retreat after hurriedly plundering, which is equivalent to retreating without a fight, causing Chen Rui to go to the enemy this time and win without a fight. Emperor Hongzhi's good policy to Chen Rui was useless at all, so he could only strengthen the garrison and appease the army, and then return to the imperial court to restore his life.

At this time, Chen Rui didn't know that after the fire sieve found that the border pass of the Ming Dynasty could not be defended, he was preparing for the second round of border crimes, and this time he prepared more soldiers and horses, but the fire sieve was not the kind of ambitious grassland overlord, his idea was very simple, there were more people who led Koubian, and there would be more people, livestock, money, food, and materials that could be snatched back.

Because the Tatar soldiers and horses temporarily retreated, Emperor Hongji breathed a sigh of relief, and it turned out to be just a false alarm.

In early May, another rush arrived at Quanzhou Mansion, and this time the court broke through the glasses.

Zhang Lian, who had just been in the limelight because of his big victory against the Francophiles, was actually brought to justice by Shen Xi, who he reported.

The first thought of the courtiers who heard about this was, is this mutual revenge?

After learning the specific situation, I realized that things are not so simple.

This time, it was the people of the two counties, as well as the Quanzhou Wei commander who guarded the Quanzhou Mansion, and even Cai Lin, the eunuch of Yongningwei, who jointly played the game, confirming that in fact, the so-called anti-grain case in the first year was Zhang Lian's corruption and perversion of the law to force the people to rebel, and Quanzhou was not the wind and rain described by Zhang Lian, but a disaster for many years.

In addition, in order to avoid the revelation of accepting bribes from the Franc machine, Zhang Lian connived at the Franc machine man to kill the people in the coastal areas, and closed the city when the Franc machine man bombarded the port of Thorn Tong.

As for the victory, it is not as exaggerated as Zhang Lian's report.

There were two previous reports from Zhang Lian, as well as two deliberations in the court, and this time when the emperor brought the matter to the noon court again, the ministers were much more cautious about this matter.

At this point, even Zhang Heling didn't dare to talk casually...... The incident was confusing, and the court seemed to be kept in the dark from beginning to end, and Emperor Hongzhi himself felt that he was being played around.

The same thing, there are actually three different performances, this time it is even more ruthless, and even the prefect Zhang Lian has been taken down.

After the hall was quiet for a long time, Shi Mingui, the emperor of the left capital, suddenly said with a straight face: "Your Majesty, can you send an envoy to investigate the corruption and perversion of the law by Zhang Lian, the prefect of Quanzhou?" ”

This question is difficult for even Hongzhi Emperor Zhu Youji to answer.

Now that Zhang Lian has been detained, if he said that he didn't send someone, then this matter would have become a joke, but two days earlier, Liu Daxia had gone up to the court and told him that there was actually something strange about the anti-grain case in the first year, so he sent someone to investigate. But even if you send someone to investigate, it's not the same thing as taking down the dignified prefect.

Zhu Youzhu squinted at Xie Qian, who was deliberately evasive, and asked, "Xie Qingjia, what do you think of this matter?" ”

Xie Qian has been regretting not being able to speak for Shen Xi these days, but now he has already scolded in his heart, "Shen Xiaoyou is making trouble for me"......

Alas, even if you find out that Zhang Lian is guilty, you should wait until you return to the capital to play with the emperor, and the emperor will order him to arrest him.

"The old minister thought ......" Xie Qian didn't say anything for a long time, and when he saw Xie Qian's embarrassment, even Li Dongyang couldn't help but smile and shook his head.

Xie Qian was a bit of a stone and hit his own foot.

At this time, Liu Daxia came out and said: "Your Majesty, the minister learned that there was a civil unrest in Quanzhou in April, and Hui'an County was attacked by the rebellious people, and the situation was urgent. ”

Zhang Heling sneered, and also said: "It's just that I sent an envoy to Quanzhou to meet the foreigners, and it turned this Quanzhou Mansion upside down!" ”

Zhu Youzhu was silent for a while. In fact, he could have issued an order on the spot, but now that things are clear, Shen Xi has Liu Daxia and Ma Wensheng in protection, and the various evil deeds of Zhang Lian, the prefect of Quanzhou, seem to be shocking, but all this is still just "heard", there is no evidence, and it is not appropriate to make a conclusion at this time.

"In this way, after the cadres arrive in the capital, they will be dealt with!" Zhu Youzhu said.

The ministers were a little speechless, and the things that could not be solved before were solved in the court, but now the court has become a place of pushing and undecided.
