Chapter 707: The Hand Behind the Back
On this day, a mysterious person entered the Chengde Jiedu Embassy, claiming to be a Bohai merchant, and was ordered to dedicate the soil to the Jiedu Envoy Tianbu. Since Tian Bu's sister Tian Qi took charge of the old land of Bohai, there are often envoys to Hengzhou to contribute Bohai native products. The woman who got married spilled the water, but she still had her mother's heart in her heart, and it didn't look strange.
Chengde Festival makes Tian Bu love to read, which is somewhat similar to his father Tian Xing, and he is also a little similar to his father is that he also loves Tian Qi very much.
I wanted to send the housekeeper to meet him, so he led him to see the old mother, and after reading Tian Qi's letter, Tian Bu immediately changed his mind and ordered someone to call the Bohai merchant Chi Rong into the backyard pavilion, and drove out all the idle people.
After seeing the ceremony, Tian Bu asked, "What does your master want you to relay to me?" ”
Chi Rong said: "Li Taishi's soldiers are trapped in Beijing, there is no time to look east, Han Gongwu plotted to kill Zhu Kerong, framed Taishi, was seen by Li Quanzhong as flawed, and had to send troops to help the war, the Liu family father and son were embarrassed, Shi Xiancheng wanted to use a false way to kill Yu, and wiped out the Chen and Sun families, Wei Bo will be chaotic, Situ Ke reorganized the soldiers and horses, took advantage of the situation to go south, and returned to Weizhou. ”
Tian Bu frowned and asked, "This is what your master means?" ”
Chi Rong said: "Yes." ”
Tian Bu snorted: "At this moment, using troops in Weizhou is tantamount to openly tearing up the Luoyang Covenant and trapping the King of Yan in the dilemma of being attacked on both sides, can your master not see this layer from the Bohai Sea?" Internal strife is small, but national affairs are big. The grassland is about to change, how dangerous is Jingxi? There are no eggs in the nest, can't your master see this? ”
Chi Rong replied calmly: "What my master is waiting for is this day, King Yan is trapped in the west of Beijing, the six families are fighting with Liu Wu, Shi Xiancheng is intimidating against the local Haoqiang, creating chaos by himself, if he doesn't take Weizhou at this moment, when will he wait?" ”
Tian Bu shook his head and sighed: "I know that she is dedicated to the Tian family, but she is only harming the country's righteousness with her own selfishness, and Tian Bu disdains it." You go back and tell her that everything should go with the flow, and don't go against the sky. Go, go. ”
Chi Rong didn't dare to say more and retired.
Tian Bu saw Chi Rong leave, shook his head, sighed silently, and said to himself: "I don't want to go back to Weizhou, when will the time come." He looked to the north, "There's a prison guard sitting in Youzhou." With that, he smiled wryly and continued to read his book.
The secret agent in the right compartment in Hengzhou City recorded the late melting of Tian Bu's secret meeting in the back garden and reported it to the Record Office, and the Record Office reported to the Record Office. The branch station was ordered to pay attention to the contacts between Hengzhou and Bohai, and felt that this matter was a little strange, so it was reported to Chang'an and Youzhou in duplicate. The right wing of Youzhou was left behind to list it as a key point, and Zheng Xiaozhang was reported early the next morning.
Zheng Xiaozhang said to Zheng Puren, the envoy of the governor's mansion and his eldest son: "The tree wants to be quiet but the wind does not stop, this woman is too ambitious, and there will be no good end in the future." Zheng Puren said: "Returning to the hometown in fine clothes, a great joy in life, is inevitable if you are a person." Fortunately, Tian Bu is a steady person. Zheng Xiaozhang said hesitantly: "Steady? You say he's steady, isn't he an honest man? That's a scheming guy who doesn't see a rabbit or a hawk. ”
After saying that, he sighed again, and showed Zheng Puren a transfer order he had just received: "Jingxi is in full strait, and the General Staff Office will transfer eight battalions from Danzhou and the Fourth Division to reinforce Hedong. Zheng Puren exclaimed: "The day before yesterday, three battalions were withdrawn from Lu Longjun, and if you continue to do this, Youzhou will be empty." Besides, the training of the Danzhou Township Army has not been completed, and now driving them to the battlefield is tantamount to sending them to death, and if they are transferred from the Fourth Division, Yingmo Shen will become an empty shelf, and when Tian Bu insists on returning to his hometown, we can only stare dryly. ”
Zheng Xiaozhang said: "This is the key point. ”
Zheng Puren said: "We have to immediately transfer the Liaodong Township Army into the customs." ”
Zheng Xiaozhang said: "Transferring troops into the customs? Do I dare to tune? Her eyeliner was densely covered all over Liaodong, and as soon as I moved, she could immediately notice it, and at that time, I was afraid that Tian Situ would not be able to bear to return to his hometown. ”
Zheng Puren nodded, and sighed helplessly. Liaodong is Tian Xuan's territory, and it is impossible to hide such a large-scale operation from her ears and eyes, once she peeks into the emptiness of Yandi, it is difficult to guarantee that she will not encourage Tian Bu to return to Weizhou. At that time, Ying Moshen's troops were empty, and no one could stop them.
Once Tian Bu went south to fight for Weizhou out of selfishness, the Luoyang Covenant became a piece of waste paper. Shi Xianzhong of Luoyang is also Tian Qian's man, once he abandons Luoyang and allows the Kwantung princes to advance westward, Li Mao will be attacked by the enemy on his back and will likely be completely defeated.
"Tian Bu reported that the number of troops was only 6,000, but in fact it was more than 10,000, because he was afraid of the fourth division stationed in Ying Moshen, so he would be honest and peaceful, if he knew that Ying Moshen's current strength was less than 3,000 people, and General Huang was about to march west, could he still be an honest man again?"
After Zheng Xiaozhang finished speaking, he sighed silently: "At present, we can only transfer the Danzhou Township Army." ”
"But the training of the Danzhou Township Army is not mature, and if you go up, you can only die in vain."
"Then you can't move Mo Shen anymore!" After scolding his son, Zheng Xiaozhang breathed a sigh of relief, "Besides, elite soldiers are not trained, elite soldiers are tempered on the battlefield." At the moment, it is only stationed along the border, and it is still some time before the real fight. ”
Zheng Puren didn't dare to persuade more, so he drafted an order for the transfer of troops on the spot, Zheng Xiaozhang signed it, and agreed to issue it immediately, Zheng Puren persuaded: "The matter of transferring troops should be countersigned by the general manager of Wen, so as not to be passive." Zheng Xiaozhang said: "If it falls into his hands, there will be a meeting again, I don't know how long it will take, the military situation is urgent, so let's do it." ”
Zheng Puren couldn't persuade his father, so he hurriedly issued the order to transfer troops.
As soon as the person came back, he suddenly saw the housekeeper Zheng Tong running in in a panic, Zheng Xiaozhang has always had a clear distinction between public and private, and his family does not get his governor's mansion if there is no important matter, and Zheng Tong has always been steady, so gaffe, Zheng Xiaozhang's father and son are all frightened.
"Oh no, San Lang, he let the Security Bureau arrest him."
"Huh? What the? Who caught it? ”
"Feng Bu personally led people to arrest them, and now they are detained in the criminal investigation department, and no one will be allowed to approach."
Zheng Xiaozhang's third son, Zheng Pucheng, fought with a drunk man in a restaurant the day before yesterday and accidentally injured the person. Zheng Pucheng was too self-defended and accidentally injured someone, according to Li Mao's local criminal law of Youzhou, Zheng Pucheng was not at fault, so he was detained in the house and was not imprisoned.
But the strange thing is that the drunk man who was injured by him died the next day, and his family ran to the Youzhou Military Supervision Institute to accuse Zheng Pucheng of killing people in the street, and the local government covered it up. If in the past, the Military Supervision Institute would not care about this idle matter, Zheng Pucheng was only a nominal officer, and he was not in the army, and the Military Supervision Institute in Youzhou was just an empty shell and didn't care about things. But the strange thing is that Tutu Chengxuan, the prison envoy who has always been indifferent, actually came to Zheng Xiaozhang with illness and asked Zheng Xiaozhang to hand over the person to the Youzhou Security Bureau for a new trial.
Zheng Xiaozhang agreed to Tutu Chengxuan, as the general manager of Youzhou, how many pairs of eyes are staring at him, and he must not be stuck in this kind of thing. Zheng Pucheng was quickly imprisoned by the Youzhou Security Bureau, the case was re-investigated, dragged on for half a month, and the day before yesterday there was a conclusion that Zheng Pucheng had made disrespectful remarks to the deceased before he started, and he had a certain responsibility, but it was indeed excessive self-defense, and he did not bear criminal responsibility, and only had to compensate the funeral expenses of the deceased.
Based on this, the Youzhou Security Bureau planned to prosecute Zheng Pucheng to the trial court, and Zheng Pucheng was also taken back by the Zheng family after being released on bail. But they didn't want to, the Youzhou Security Bureau has not yet formally filed a public prosecution with the local trial court, but the family of the deceased gathered a group of people to report to the Supervision Yuan that Zheng Pucheng had bribed the Youzhou and local security bureaus, cheated together, reversed black and white, and asked the Supervision Yuan to intervene in the case.
Zheng Xiaozhang is in Youzhou, and there are many pairs of eyes staring at it, Youzhou is not a happy place, the confrontation between the government and the people is not much better than other places, and it has long been common for officials to sympathize with the weak, once this matter was poked out, it quickly set off an uproar, and public opinion was very unfavorable to the Zheng family father and son.
Under such circumstances, when the Supervision Yuan consulted Zheng Xiaozhang on this matter, Zheng Xiaozhang, in order to show justice, said that he would never interfere with the Supervision Yuan's performance of its duties, and that he could do whatever he wanted, and that he could give his father and son a clean slate. Zheng Xiaozhang understands that an ordinary manslaughter case first alarmed the prison envoy, and then stabbed the supervision Yuan, and was made all over the city, is this accident, there must be a black hand behind it.
He Zheng Xiaozhang is now in power, and he is a big man, and it is inevitable that there will be many rights and wrongs, so he should avoid suspicion more and make fewer moves at this moment. Static braking, in order to respond to all changes.
