Without a Trace Volume 8 Xinjun Chapter 40 Vacancy
、、、、、、、
The imperial city is already plain white, it is the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the bleak autumn wind wraps a few fallen leaves in Liao, which is particularly desolate. The eunuchs and maids in the palace have already changed into plain clothes and white hats, and their demeanor is cautious. Everyone knows that the moment when the new emperor ascended the throne coincided with the military disaster in the southwest, and if a person behaved inappropriately, the end of the big stick beating to death and carrying it out was ironclad.
In the Qinzheng Palace, the new emperor Feng stood in front of the throne without a trace, his eyes were clear and introspective. Although Yiying's confidants and nobles were all sitting upright on the chairs, they were quite restless, and only the two elders of Haiguanyu and Feng Luzhi sat there peacefully, exchanging glances from time to time.
"Ladies and gentlemen, you also know that my throne was not easy to come by, and someone actually provoked chaos in the southwest when my father was mourning, it is really ill-intentioned and crazy!" Feng Wuxian suddenly sneered, "I summoned you here today to discuss the candidates for the generals in front. After all, He Furong is already old and a civil servant, so it is expected that he will not be able to suppress the situation. He can also be regarded as an old minister of the two dynasties, and being transferred back to Beijing can also give those villains who are about to move a little deterrent, so as not to worry about it day and night. ”
He Mobin was already apprehensive in his heart, and when he heard Feng Wuxian mention his father, he couldn't help but shudder. It wasn't until he was sure that the new monarch had no intention of pursuing it that he relaxed a little, but he still couldn't understand the other party's intentions. In terms of reasoning, the He family did not say that they had any merit in supporting the establishment, and they did not even pay a little bit of labor, but they made a lot of stumbling blocks when they were established at the beginning. However, as soon as the new monarch ascended the throne, he was summoned to the palace to discuss matters. This kind of special encounter is the performance of favoring Shanglong, so some people have speculated.
"What the emperor said is that my father is already old. This time, the southwest sword soldiers suddenly rose, and he was also guilty of negligence. He Mobin weighed again. still got up and pleaded, "It's just that there are still many affairs in the capital that have not yet been sorted out, and if the imperial court easily sends troops, I am afraid it will stir up rumors again." ”
Feng Wuxian waved his hand and motioned for him to sit down, and then he said: "The rebellion of the Burmeyang clan has been showing signs as early as the reign of the first emperor. This is just a well-timed outbreak, so I have no intention of holding anyone accountable. His words undoubtedly set the tone for the placement of He Furong, "As for the so-called "outside must first be inside, I don't dare to agree." If someone really wants to spread rumors, they will not let it go regardless of whether they have soldiers or not, so let those clowns who jump off the beam make noise. ”
Bao Huasheng nodded secretly, and then he said: "Your Majesty, the Southwest Burmese Yang clan has always been ready to move, and this is a great opportunity to solve it in one fell swoop." It is better for Tang Sihai, the governor of Yunnan and Guizhou, or Hu Nanjing, the governor of Sichuan, to send troops to sweep first. Wait until you have an eyebrow before you make a plan. At this time, the imperial court sent a general to promote it, which inevitably caused too much alarm. ”
Tobe Shangyue Qianfan didn't understand military affairs, but he frowned at this time. I only heard him shake his head and say:
"Your Majesty, the rebellion of the Burmese Yang clan is just a minor illness, but if you can't cut through the chaos quickly, you can break it in one fell swoop. Maybe it will invite even more trouble. As he spoke, he counted the recent military expenditures one by one, and added at the end, "The northwest is just a preliminary decision, if someone takes advantage of the loophole, then the imperial court will have to deal with the military horses on both sides, and if someone instigates it again, there will be even greater chaos among the people." According to Weichen's opinion, it is better to immediately select a general to go to the arrangement, and extinguish this military disaster with lightning speed, so as to show the power of our emperor. ”
The rest of the ministers also agreed with Yue Qianfan's idea, and after Bao Huasheng thought about it carefully, he felt that the views of others were reasonable, so he no longer strived for it. However, on the question of who to send to lead the troops, the people were in trouble. The world has been peaceful for a long time, whether it is the government or the people, they have long been accustomed to this kind of day, so among the generals, only the generals in the northwest military camp have really experienced the war, but at this time, they can't transfer people from the northwest, otherwise it will definitely cause turmoil in the grassland.
"Your Majesty, Weichen thinks that he can appoint the commander of the Fengtai battalion to go to quell the rebellion." The wind scoundrel spoke unhurriedly, but did not get up. He is an old minister who has experienced the three dynasties, and he is the uncle of the new monarch in terms of seniority, so as soon as he said this, everyone immediately thought about it, "The Fengtai battalion is also responsible for the defense of Gyeonggi, and although it can be handed over to Zhan Pohan to train elite soldiers, Weichen always feels that it is inappropriate. Zhan Pohan is a decisive general, and it is a waste of talent to succumb to this corner, so it is better to let him go to the southwest. ”
Hai Guanyu's eyes lit up, and he obviously thought of something. He was just about to get up, when suddenly he coughed violently, and his eyes were full of stars, and he couldn't help himself. A little eunuch took the wind without a trace, and hurriedly stepped forward to wait, and it took a long time for Haiguanyu to calm down.
"Hai Lao Aiqing is diligent and hardworking, and he is really a model for a hundred officials." Feng Wuxian knew that Haiguanyu's body was not as good as day by day, and he had already worked hard for the first emperor's great trip, and he was still struggling to come to discuss the matter at this time, and he couldn't help but feel very touched in his heart, "Hai Lao Aiqing, if you can hold it, you can talk about it casually, if you can't hold it, you don't have to sit upright like this, and you don't have to worry about it crookedly at will, this is not the right court performance, you don't need to abide by those rules." ”
Hai Guanyu finally sat up straight, and after calming down the discomfort in his chest, he smiled bitterly and said: "Weichen is really old, this is the first time that the emperor has lost his honor, and he will have to rely on your lords to assist the emperor in the future." He was happy and comforted when he saw that the wind was without a trace, and hurriedly stopped, "Today's discussion is for the military situation in the southwest, and there is no need to make a big fuss about Weichen's body." What Prince Shicai said is very reasonable, and the emperor can send Zhan Pohan out. As for the new governor of the Fengtai battalion, the emperor can send a henchman to lead the guard. This kind of important land is not controlled by people trusted by the emperor, and no one can rest assured. Weichen looks at Xu Chun well, he advances and retreats to a certain extent, and he never makes mistakes, I don't know what the emperor and the adults think? ”
Feng Wuxian was stunned for a moment, and then stretched his brows, Haiguanyu and Feng Zhizhi's advice was right on his spleen and stomach. Although Zhan Pohan has long been committed to loyalty, he is not his descendant after all, and this person fought on the battlefield in his early years, and his position in the Gyeonggi Defense was indeed condescending. And Xu Chun has been with him for many years, not to mention his loyalty, even his actions and rules are quite organized, no wonder Hai Guanyu values it.
Everyone heard Hai Guanyu make this suggestion, and saw a smile on Feng Wuxi's face, how could there be any reason. Several people opened their mouths and praised Xu Chun greatly, so they easily decided on the candidate for the chief general of the southwest. And Xu Chun, who was supported outside the Qinzheng Palace, would never have thought that he could suddenly be promoted like this. Although he was promoted to a first-class guard due to his repeated meritorious achievements, and this time he was also listed with the rank of second-class land, but the real shortage of the admiral is still a big outlier.
Bao Huasheng is a cautious person, and he has not completely fallen into the flattery of everyone. "Your Majesty, it is naturally good to send Zhan to the southwest to break the cold, but Xu Chun has always been a guard before, and he has not been involved in practice, and although the Fengtai battalion is important, it is not as good as the Yamen, the commander of the infantry army." He paused, didn't pay any attention to the faces of the people next to him, and continued, "Previously, due to the secret rebellion of Zhang Gan, the former commander of the Nine Gates, there was also a vacancy in the hall official of the Yamen, and someone still needed to fill it. Weichen thought that it was more appropriate for Xu Chun to take this position, and as for the Fengtai camp, the emperor could select capable people to control it. It is necessary to know that the defense of Gyeonggi is always the first with the Admiral of the Nine Gates, and it is not the emperor's henchmen who are not competent. ”
Feng Wuxian was still frowning at Bao Huasheng's ignorance, but when he heard the end, his heart was completely relieved. It is true that compared to the Fengtai camp outside, the position of Admiral of Jiumen is actually more important, and if it is not for Xu Chun and others to watch, he is really not at ease. "Bao Aiqing's words are very true, I did have some ill-thought before." He nodded thoughtfully, "In that case, if you have a suitable candidate for the Fengtai camp, you might as well put it forward for discussion, otherwise, it is not a good thing for the cadres to be arbitrary." ”
Who would take the emperor's words seriously, so they were all cautious when proposing candidates, lest the new monarch think that he had formed a party for personal gain, but Hai Guanyu and Feng Hooligans did not say a word, obviously with other plans in mind. After a small court discussion, although the candidates for the chief general of the southwest and the commander of the Nine Gates were agreed, other things were still in the air. Seeing that it was getting late, Feng Wuxian also asked them to quit, and instructed the big room outside to prepare food for everyone in the east room, leaving only Haiguanyu and Feng Guizhi two.
Xu Chun, who was on duty outside, was a little confused, and the adults who passed by him all looked like they were smiling, which made him very strange. Ling Renjie beside him didn't care about this, he took the opportunity to laugh at him a few times, and several acquaintances of the guards also came up to say hello, and insisted that the henchman of the new monarch was about to be promoted, which made Xu Chun's heart move.
As soon as the officials left, Feng Wuxian ordered the eunuch to pass the meal and let the two stay with him to share. Feng Zhi and Hai Guanyu are both old men who have gone through three dynasties, how could they not know that the emperor has important matters to discuss, so they thanked for their grace after a little excuse. At this time, it was the time of great mourning, and everyone came to the Qinzheng Hall to discuss matters after crying in front of the first emperor's spiritual body, so they were already hungry. Fortunately, during the period, the wind was traceless, so that the imperial dining room prepared snacks, which barely cushioned the hunger.
Because it is still the first seven of the first emperor, the diet of one color is very simple, but it is only six or seven silver basins of pearls. Rao is like this, Hai Guanyu and Feng Lizhi only moved their chopsticks slightly, and they no longer use them much. They are all proficient in Chinese and Qi cultivation kung fu, and they are already old, and they are already moderated in their diet, and they are even more reluctant to lose their manners in front of the emperor. However, Feng Wuxian was really hungry, so he picked a few colored steamed buns to fill his stomach, and then ordered the eunuch to remove the strips.
"Prince Gangster, Hai Lao Aiqing, I didn't mention the original incident today, I just don't want to stir up rumors." Feng Wuxian waved his hand to rebuke all the eunuchs and palace maids who were waiting, and then slowly spoke, "You should also know about the unsparing actions of the pioneer Ningjun Wang Feng, if it weren't for the queen mother's insistence on protecting me, I'm afraid the capital will change the sky." Although he has committed the crime of treason, he is still the beloved son of the queen mother after all, and how to deal with this is a headache for me, so I want to hear your opinion. ”
Feng Zhi and Hai Guanyu glanced at each other, but there were turbulent waves in their hearts. Feng Wuxi is insignificant alone, however, the Xiao family was also caught in it before, and this one is not good enough to provoke the disharmony between the emperor's mother and son. After all, the Xiao family is now the justifiable queen mother, and if the emperor puts filial piety first, he can't be too strict with the wind.
