Thirty-one, sharpening the knife Huo Huo (3)

Zeng Guoquan is naturally impatient, he is the head of the Hunan people, and he is the governor of the eight seats, who has time to pay attention to the alternate director of such a ministry? If you are a noble and noble person who sees this kind of main thing that is neither red nor black, then it is really a matter of laughing at the generous family, offering the ceremony, or looking at the face of the governor of Yungui, Su Yuanchun smiled slightly, he is even more coarse, "That's what I said, I'm looking at the handsome and boring, it's not bad to see someone from Beijing to ask interesting things, he didn't have the blessing to see the handsome!" ”

Zeng Guoquan was a little dumbfounded, "What interesting things can be in Beijing," Su Yuanchun was also from the Hunan Army, so he spoke a little more unscrupulously, "I want to see it in person, but there is a left foot, and I can't get in." ”

The first reason is of course that Zeng Guoquan is not cautious, in addition to the military, there are few other achievements, and there are many criticisms in the previous places, so he is not a candidate for the prime minister, but mortals investigate the reason, they will not pursue themselves, and always find someone else to top the cylinder, so blame Zuo Zongtang's body, Zeng Guoquan always thinks that if it is not the same Hunan people, And Zuo Zongtang, who has more credit than himself, has entered the direct military plane, and it is not impossible for him to make people call himself "Zeng Xiang".

"But he is an alternate director, how can he have a holy decree to let him serve in front of the account of the governor of Yungui?" Zeng Guoquan is still a little politically sensitive in the end, generally speaking, the transfer of this kind of little person is the document issued by the ministry, not to mention that it is not wartime, there is a need for a principal to serve in front of the governor's account, and there is no official errand? Although Zeng Guoquan was a little careless, he also knew that the movements of the DPRK and China should be understood, and he raised his voice to Goshha to pro-army. "Please come here, Master Zhang."

After a while, Zeng Guoquan was a little impatient, and an old man in Tsing Yi with an old lady on his face who slowly swallowed his beard came to Zeng Guoquan on crutches, and he had to bend down slowly to salute, and was quickly stopped by Zeng Guoquan, "Hi." Master Zhang, don't be so polite when you meet every day," Zeng Guoquan asked directly: "Who is this in Beijing recently?" Tang Jingsong's news? ”

Master Zhang twisted his beard and thought about it, and it was so long that Su Yuanchun almost thought that this dying old master had fallen asleep, and then Master Zhang spoke, "If you go back to Lord Dutai, there is news of such a person?" ”

"What's the news?"

"On the twenty-fifth of last month, he made an excerpt, and then on the second day of the first month of this month, the Queen Mother ordered him to go out of Beijing to serve under the account of the governor of Yunnan and Guizhou. But he didn't give any position, and it was rumored in Beijing that he hated the Queen Mother. ”

"What does the excerpt say?" Zeng Guoquan asked.

"It's a secret fold," Master Zhang shook his head, "Except for the General Administration, no one knows what this fold says." ”

"Is there a royal summoning right?"

Master Zhang half-closed his eyes, his expression was a little blank, he seemed to feel that this question insulted his IQ. Lukewarm, "My lord." The alternate director of the sixth rank cannot be summoned in the Heart Cultivation Palace, and he is not qualified to do so. ”

Zeng Guoquan was a little embarrassed and touched his nose, "Thank you, Master Zhang, you are going to rest when you are old, Yungui has paid a batch of good Fushou ointment." I left you a few parties, and you don't have to worry about other things in your daily life, if you are free, help me read the newspaper and pay attention to the news in Beijing. ”

Master Zhang Xie En walked out slowly, and Su Yuanchun laughed. "Why is the big handsome so polite to this coffin scoop, what are you doing?"

"He is the brains of my first brother, in charge of the news, my brother entrusted him to me before he died, although people's movements are slower, but the news is well-informed, isn't this the news that we have noticed Tang Jingsong?" Zeng Guoquan instructed Goshha, "Please come in, Lord Tang!" You're welcome! ”

"A head of the ministry is still an alternate, why is the marshal so polite?" Su Yuanchun said strangely, "The Queen Mother made it clear that she didn't want to see him, so she drove him out." ”

"Xiao Su, you also have to read more books and read more newspapers, so that this person will improve," Zeng Guoquan educated Su Yuanchun seriously, "When have you seen such a person who is derogatory for no reason in the hands of our queen mother?" She is the most particular about the right words, the name of the punishment, will never be so inexplicably depreciated out of the people out of Beijing, the two kings rebelled in the past, and it was also the three law divisions 1510 to inform the world of the evidence, so this is the entrance of the vegetable market, so, to say a disrespectful word, if you complain in the fold or say something ugly to persuade the queen mother, as long as it is well-founded, she will never attack you, but will pinch her nose and praise it, where she will be derogatory without asking the reason? My brother asked me to read more, Xiao Su, I can only understand things by reading more, and you are the same. ”

Su Yuanchun responded with a bitter face, the two of them sat in the flower hall, and after a while, Tang Jingsong arrived, Tang Jingsong is a typical Guangxi race, black and thin, and now he is just in his early forties, he is wearing a court dress and flicked his sleeves to pay a big ceremony, "Xiaguan, Guangxu is a fourth-year jinshi, and the deputy director of the Ministry of Officials, Tang Jingsong, who is from Guanyang, Guangxi, knocks to see the Governor, the Admiral." ”

Zeng Guoquan smiled, with the graceful bearing of a feudal official, "Hurry up, look at the tea, this tea is your Guangxi's Guiyu plum fragrance, it tastes good, Lord Tang try it." ”

"Yes," Tang Jingsong took a sip and praised it, "I have been away from my hometown for a long time, and this kind of hometown tea is really rare to drink, and I don't want to drink it here from Lord Dutai." ”

After talking to the two, Zeng Guoquan knew that this person's communication skills were very good, and he was by no means the kind of person who blindly did things for the sake of a false name, there must be other hidden secrets in this, he took a sip of tea, thought about it, and asked, "Lord Tang went to Kunming this time, I don't know what errand to do, I look at the vagueness of this will." ”

"There are no other errands, but there is an order from above, and I have to follow." Tang Jingsong said with a smile, "When the time comes, it's under Lord Cen's tent, and I'll just be dispatched." ”

"But your official body is still the alternate director of the Ministry of Officials, and you have not been transferred to Yungui."

"Yes," Tang Jingsong replied, "What about the errand, we have to wait until we get to Kunming." ”

Zeng Guoquan asked a few words, and found that Tang Jingsong's reply was not leaking, so he became a little impatient, and he couldn't ask Tang Jingsong what was written on the secret fold, wouldn't such a question become a crime of spying on the secrets of the center? So I didn't know what to say, and the scene fell silent all of a sudden, Su Yuanchun understood the meaning of Zeng Guoquan's face, turned his face to Tang Jingsong and said, he came to the rescue, of course, the tricks to save the scene are not very clever, "Lord Tang, this time when you arrive in Guilin, the Governor doesn't know what to send, coming out of Beijing, it must be a good ritual, if you want something, to put it bluntly, if the Governor can help, he will definitely help." ”

This is what Zeng Guoquan and Su Yuanchun can only do for these two martial artists, Hongguoguo directly asked what the visitor needed, Tang Jingsong was not surprised, and said with a smile, "I have nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace, I really came today to ask the Governor for something, I hope the Governor will not dislike the lower officials and be shameless." ”

Unable to ask what Tang Jingsong's purpose was for going to Yungui, Zeng Guoquan was a little indifferent, "You said that is, if I can do it, I will definitely not allow it." ”

"I went to Kunming, the road is far away, and I am afraid that there will be robbers and bandits, so I dare to ask the Lord to borrow a hundred soldiers, but I don't dare to ask the Governor to pro-Goshha pro-army, ordinary soldiers are fine."

Zeng Guoquan frowned, "This is going to Kunming, the official road is smooth, how can there be any bandits, Lord Tang is too worried." ”

This made it clear that he refused, but Tang Jingsong didn't think it was wrong, so he pretended not to hear it, and continued to laugh, "The lower official still has to be cheeky, and he wants three hundred muskets, and ten cannons are lent to the lower official for use." ”

Su Yuanchun jumped up, with an angry face, "Okay, you don't know anything about the official, you are becoming more and more out of character when you speak, what do you want so many muskets and artillery for?" Shelling the Doge's Palace? ”

Tang Jingsong smiled and said nothing, Zeng Guoquan stopped Su Yuanchun, "He didn't want to bombard the Governor's Mansion, he had another purpose," he looked at Tang Jingsong and slowly stood up, "Say, what kind of will did Xisheng give!" (To be continued.) )
