What the hell are you doing when you enter Beijing and face the saint? Liao Daheng used to know this problem, but now he is confused.

The reason why he was confused was not that he couldn't understand Zhu Pingjin's will, but that life and death were at stake, and it just involved himself.

The story of the court: Fu and Ertai are all officials of the Qin Mission. At the end of the one-year period, he went to Beijing to report on his work.

The emperor was happy to hear this, and said in a jade voice: Someone caresses (presses) a certain place for another year. So, Fu and press the second station to return to the place of duty and continue to be powerful.

If there is no will to caress (press) again, and there is no promotion to change the text, the unlucky guy has no choice but to place an order and wait for the organization to redistribute the work. During this period, according to the rank of the official, he had no oil or water for his position, lived in poverty, and pickled vegetables for food.

However, in the year of Chongzhen, due to the continuous wars in various places, there was turmoil everywhere. New officials often fail to arrive on time, and it is not uncommon for old officials to stay in office after they have expired.

Liao Daheng's governor also served a one-year term.

At the end of the thirteenth year of Chongzhen, Shao Jiechun, the former governor of Sichuan, was arrested by Ticai, and Liao Daheng, who was the commander of the Sichuan army, took over the post of governor of Sichuan.

At the end of the fourteenth year, the war was fought in Guang'an, and Liao Daheng, who was worried about his future, took the opportunity to ask his son Zhu Pingjin about his future. The prince vaguely suggested that he seek Ding Qirui's position as the governor of the five provinces.

It is good to be able to get the position of the governor of the five provinces, but the official title of Liao Daheng is still a little worse.

Supervisor, holding the edict, holding the sword, beheading the head of the officials, leading the military and civilians of several provinces in a province, and the blessing is not inferior to the princes. Therefore, the superintendent is either released by the cabinet minister, or promoted by the governor, and there is no case of the governor being promoted directly to the superintendent.

Moreover, Ding Qirui's position as the governor of the five provinces is a desperate job. If there is money and food from Shu and a strong army to protect the country, the governor of the five provinces may be able to take office; If not, it is just the fate of Fu Chonglong, Wang Qiaonian, and Shao Jiechun.

Recently, due to the defeat of the army, Kaifeng lost the seal letter under the city, and Ding Qirui was arrested in Beijing, isn't it just a confirmation of the original judgment?

Liao Daheng, who was unwilling to be used in a daze, continued to toss, and finally got a clear answer in front of the sickbed of the prince in Nanfang County:

As long as he is willing to bow his head and be a minister, he will be a supreme minister, and his descendants will be princes for all generations. In order to completely reassure him, Shizi also gave him an unexpected guarantee:

The king and the people of the world rule the world together.

"The old man's entry into Beijing to face the saint is nothing more than to clear the obstacles for Zhu Pingjin to ascend to the world!" Liao Daheng was silent, but he had mixed feelings in his heart, "His biggest obstacle is not the world's supreme with the dragon robe patched?" ”

The concubine didn't seem to notice the master's thoughts, and kept saying:

“…… The son of the world broke the law, and that was also the law of his Zhu family! If you want to fight and kill, his Zhu family will tear him up and take him away, what do you have to do with you, master? According to the slave family, it only matters why the prince wants the master to enter Beijing. My lord, your life is in danger, and it must be pinned on your mission! ”

"Go on!" Liao Daheng listened patiently for so long, and finally spoke up.

"What does the prince want, big position!" The concubine said, and her voice unconsciously lowered a little, "Didn't the unveiling post on the street a few days ago say: Sima Zhao's heart, everyone knows it!" Now that the affairs of Sichuan cannot be covered, the emperor must be planning the punishment of the prince! What about you, you happened to be in Beijing......"

"What the old man is afraid of is that he will throw himself into the net and send this good head to the vegetable market!"

"Why did the emperor kill you?"

The concubine immediately retorted: "Master, you are the governor of Sichuan, and you are the imperial envoy, and the errand is to pacify Sichuan." Shu is pacified, Sichuan is not opposed, that is your greatest credit! Besides, sir, you are carrying a check for three million, when did those poor Beijing officials see so much silver? The emperor is not short of hungry soldiers, this is what you often say, sir......"

Concubine Gu downplayed a life-threatening situation, but Liao Tycoon was not easy to fool. He shook his head and said loudly:

"How can the affairs of the court be so simple?

The great credit is placed in front of the emperor, and it is just the duty of a courtier. If you do it well, you should do it, and if you don't do it well, pull it out and kill your head. What the emperor wants, loyalty, and his ten thousand years!

Ma Wenke, the eunuch of the Qianqing Palace, fled from Sichuan, and the four words "the reverse trace has appeared" will not appear in the upper play! The old man expected that when Benfu entered Beijing, the emperor would carefully inquire about the soldiers, horses, money, and food of Shu and the soldiers of the prince.

Why?

One asks whether Shu is anti or not; Second, ask the old man if he is colluding with Zhu Pingjin!

Since the prince ordered the old man to enter Beijing, the old man was restless. Recently, I asked Sun Dingbang to draw up an outline of the correct performance, and read the music and revival report of the past year carefully. I thought that the emperor would be questioned in the future, and the old man would be able to defend one or two......

Hey, if you don't read the Shu newspaper, just take a look...... All of them are guilty of killing their heads and exterminating their families!

…… I can't cover it! For now, I have to come up with a justification......

Woohoo lament, the sky is in trouble for me! ”

Liao Daheng sighed exaggeratedly, and at the same time put his palm on the raised position of the woman's chest and kneaded it.

"Master, why are you still like a little master in Jingli, and you always don't have a serious appearance?"

The concubine was disgusted and brushed the dishonest hand on her chest away. In the blink of an eye, there was a look of resoluteness in her seductive eyes:

"Since you can't cover it, then you can't use a way! Instead of sneaking around, it is better to be bright and bright, and put on the appearance of a loyal minister. In this way, the clear stream of the imperial court will have no way to start!

Master, you told the slave family that most of the Donglin Party members in the court are hypocrites who are sanctimonious men and prostitutes.

All right! They're good at being high-profile, and you're more high-profile than they are!

They are greedy for money, and you promise them benefits behind your back!

In short, you can say whatever they like to hear......"

"In this way, the old man also has to say something sweet in front of the emperor?"

"Of course! As long as you stabilize the emperor and let the prince gain a firm foothold in Huguang, then in the future, the new dynasty will pay homage to the prime minister, and you will definitely be the first! ”

Stabilize the emperor, disrupt the court situation, let Zhu Pingjin quietly occupy the land of Huguang rice and the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, and then seek an opportunity to annex Zuo Liangyu's troops and Huguang official army, this is the real mission that Zhu Pingjin gave to Liao Daheng on his trip to Beijing.

Another real mission is to use his actions along the way to make the image of Zhu Pingjinren and the Holy Monarch deeply rooted in the hearts of the officials and gentry of the two capitals and 12 provinces.

Liu Huilian can accurately state her mission, presumably Liu Huzi of the Intelligence Bureau has assigned Liu Huilian a task.

How did the bearded man have the opportunity to contact Liu Huilian? Is it through Liu Hongting or Mr. Liu's friendship with the same clan, or through Liu Zhibo's old concubine?

No, Liao Daheng shook his head in his heart, it is likely that he wronged Liu Mingsheng.

Only the message group among the eunuchs in the palace, and even Miss Luo herself, are qualified to make the people around her bow down. Presumably, the pair of warm green jade pendants in her ears are the reward for lobbying and surveillance.

What the emperor wants to hear, Liao Daheng knows without thinking.

During the Rebellion of Lu'an, the court debated endlessly about the transfer of troops to quell the rebellion. Liao Daheng, who was the head of the six products of the military department at the time, saw the emperor's thoughts, and made a twist and turn, and strongly advocated the mobilization of border soldiers Yi (Yi) soldiers to quell the rebellion.

The border soldiers and Yi soldiers are brave and healthy in the belly soldiers and Han soldiers, this is the obvious reason for Liao Daheng to play, and secretly there is also the idea of saving silver. Because of the call of border soldiers and Yi soldiers, for Guizhou, the nest of luxury, that is the nearest call!

Strong soldiers, provincial silver, these two are presented together, Liao Daheng does not believe that the emperor is not moved.

Sure enough, as soon as the chapter was written, the emperor immediately noticed this little-known Yunnan Sanjia Jinshi. Soon, Liao Daheng was released to Sichuan as a superintendent.

Luxury is peaceful, the border soldiers and Yi soldiers are recognized as the main force, and Liao Daheng is therefore in the emperor's heart in the name of knowing the soldiers. Shao Jiechun was arrested, and he was promoted to the governor of Sichuan as a superintendent of the military and became the head of a province!

"It is necessary not only to be upright and upright, but also to make the emperor and his ministers happy. That Fu only presented the prince's economic strategy of governing the army together.

For example, the economic policy, Benfu first offered a one-size-fits-all approach, and then offered the method of forced purchase of surplus grain and silver money.

If the emperor likes it, the old man will open the stock market in Beijing, build the emperor's village in Siye, Xingyi in the border pass, and circle the casino in the street market......

By the way, there is also Miss Luo's unified purchase and sale of salt and tobacco, and the National Protection Fund ......"

Liao Daheng seemed to have found a feeling, and his words were full of excitement.

However, Liao Daheng was awakened by the concubine's cold words in an instant:

"Master, you said what the emperor and courtiers like to hear, but don't say what the prince doesn't like to hear!

Don't forget, the future of the lord is in the Shu Mansion after all! If the old man said something he shouldn't have said in order to get out. Even if you return to Sichuan, you will be punished by the prince......"

At this time, Liao Daheng seemed to wake up like a dream:

"That's right! Right! What the old man does and says should be prelude to ask the prince for approval! In the future, in the Jinluan Palace, the old man will inevitably have to scold the son of the world in order to meet the occasion. If the son of the world holds a grudge against him, then the old man really has no village in front of him, no store in the back, and he is in a dilemma! ”

Seeing that Tycoon Liao was in a panic, Liu Huilian finally softened her color and smiled at Tycoon Liao:

"Sir! What if the emperor gives you 10,000 capital crimes? The slave family heard that there are two kinds of fools in this world, I don't know if you know, master? One is really stupid, and the other is pretending to be stupid! Now the guards are strong and strong, and the officers and troops have been defeated again and again. The emperor doesn't pretend to be stupid, does he dare to turn his face with the prince?

The son of the world is really the opposite, I'm afraid that it won't take three or five years, this Ming country is the world of my Shu Kingdom!

There is an old saying in Jingshi, which is called 'asking for someone is a grandson, and a person seeking is an uncle'. Now is the time for the emperor to beg us, what are you afraid of him doing? ”

Powerful protection, which is more secure than three million silver.

But if the emperor insists on going his own way and wants to use my head to deter his subordinates, then wouldn't I, Liao Daheng, be a scapegoat for Zhu Pingjin?

Besides, with Zhu Pingjin's deep thoughts, he will use the protection ** to cheer for me?

What's more, Zhu Pingjin may also use Benfu's head to make a deal with the imperial court in exchange for some benefits!

Liao Daheng thought to himself, but said: "The old man is not afraid of fools, but he is only afraid of madmen!" Thinking about the changes in the past, Guanning Iron Cavalry was still under the city, and the emperor sent the superintendent Yuan Chonghuan to prison. Guan Ningjun was so frightened that he broke out of Beijing...... Now the protector is still in Sichuan, thousands of miles away from Beijing. The old man is afraid that once something happens, the whip will be out of reach! ”

"Then let the emperor not be a madman! The emperor also has something to be afraid of, that is fame, that is history! and his country, the life and death of his children and grandchildren! ”

The woman gritted her teeth, revealing a row of tiny white teeth. However, when her gaze swept over Liao Tycoon's face, she lowered her eyes.

"Master, as long as you make the emperor believe that the guardian will fight for your safety, then you will be safe! The more they believe, the safer you will be! ”

Liao tycoon's outstretched arms suddenly tightened, pressing the woman in his arms firmly against his chest, making her unable to move.

"Yu Ji, Yu Ji, how is Nai!" The end of the hero is bleak. The last nostalgia for the world when he was dying burst out from the mouth of Liao Tycoon.

"Master, the slave family is your person, and death is your ghost. The master took the slave family into Beijing. The concubine has nothing else to ask for, so she begs the master to keep a child for the slave family! Liu Huilian muttered with tears in her eyes.

"Good!" Liao Tycoon, who hadn't laughed all night, finally smiled.

Liu Cuilian accompanied her into Beijing, and she was connected to the most economical and fastest information channel with the pair of men and women. If things are urgent, there will be an extra bargaining chip to save your life.

"Cuilian, give your brother a message. Let him unload the errand of the Silkworm Cliff customs and return to Chengdu as soon as possible. The old man doesn't have a confidant around him, and many things are not easy to do. Besides, Miss Luo takes the silver closely, and Zhu Zhihan is a lesson from the past! At this critical moment when he is about to enter Beijing, he should not do that troublesome person again! ”

Thousands of doors are closed, and all are silent. Liao Daheng touched Zhu Pingjin's hole card through his concubine, and finally slept peacefully.

At some point, the light of a lantern flickering appeared outside the window.

Immediately after, there was the snapping of the knocker.

"Sir, sir! Zheng Changshi and Father-in-law Cao came to visit and said that there was something important to discuss with the master! The servants shouted outside the door.

"Got it, please have tea with the two of you first, and Ben Fu will change your clothes and see each other!"

The official body can't help himself!

Liao Daheng glanced at the woman who was sleeping soundly next to him, sighed and rubbed his eyes and sat up.

The prince and Chengfeng came together late at night, I'm afraid it's not a good thing!
