Chapter 4 Turmoil in all directions is critical
Section 2: Self-Raising Food
Liu Yunwei's words were like a booster, which made Emperor Chongzhen feel greatly relieved, and he was very happy in his heart, and said with a laugh: "Haha, I know that as long as there is a broken army and 300,000 soldiers of the Hanwei army, I will not have to worry about it!" Daming is worry-free! ”
At this time, Zhou Yanru, the first assistant of the cabinet, stood up very inopportunely and said: "What Uncle Po said is very good, but how to solve the money and food of the soldiers of the Hanwei army to go to Liaodong?" 300,000 soldiers went to Liaodong, and the amount of money and food required must be huge, but can the imperial court get it? You must know that since the beginning of this year, the imperial court has first sent troops to the northwest to suppress hundreds of thousands of thieves, and until now the war in the northwest has not completely ended; At the same time, the imperial court also had to provide relief to millions of displaced people in the northwest and repair damaged cities and towns in various places. These huge expenditures have emptied the imperial court, and the treasury now has no money to wage war in Liaodong. In this regard, I don't know if the broken army has a high opinion? ”
Liu Yunwei couldn't help frowning when he heard this, and said: "What does the elder of the pavilion mean, the 300,000 soldiers of my Han Wei army went out to Liaodong, fought bloody battles with the Qing army, and were born and died, and the imperial court did not plan to give up money and grain, but let me raise it by myself in the four towns of Jiliao, right?" ”
"Haha! That's not what the old man meant. ”
"What do you mean?"
Zhou Yanru saw that Liu Yunwei was openly asking himself above the court, his face was a little unbearable, and he snorted coldly, and he was about to step forward and tear Liu Yunwei apart.
And several of the surrounding imperial historians were like flies seeing dung, so they rolled up their sleeves and stepped forward to help, and "fight" Liu Yunwei with Zhou Yanru.
Emperor Chongzhen was immediately furious when he saw this, these "important ministers of the country" did not have the slightest insight in state affairs, but the party fought with each other and fought in the hall was a top spirit!
Emperor Chongzhen waved his hand with anger on his face, forcibly held back the anger in his heart, and said, "Elder Ge is a little safe!" Uncle Pojun, the court is indeed in trouble now, and I also want to hear what you mean about money and food. ”
Seeing that Emperor Chongzhen spoke, Liu Yunwei didn't want to say anything, he pondered for a while, and then said: "Your Majesty, the income from the tuntian of the four towns of Jiliao and the income of the shogunate is not abundant, and it is already stretched to maintain an army of 300,000 on weekdays. When it comes to money and food, the minister is really powerless! ”
After speaking, Liu Yunwei looked at the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty slightly, and said secretly in his heart: "These ministers in the court are all a group of mediocre people, and they are all people who have not achieved enough things and have more than enough failures!" The expedition to Liaodong is such a big event, it is related to the national fortune and social society, these people do not give advice to His Majesty, but instead attract the attention of the four towns of Jiliao? Fight, let the soldiers of the Hanwei Army fight, the money and food let me Jiliao four towns, when the time comes to share the credit, these bastards are ready to jump out and pick peaches, wishful thinking! ”
After listening to Liu Yunwei's words, Emperor Chongzhen couldn't help but sigh slightly, and the joy that had just surged up disappeared in an instant, replaced by a thick sorrow.
Liu Yunwei looked at Emperor Chongzhen's lonely expression, and felt a little unbearable in his heart, so he said: "Your Majesty, although the minister can't raise enough money and food, the minister can assure Your Majesty that as long as the money and food for the supply army to go to Liaodong are complete, the 300,000 soldiers of my Hanwei Army can be assembled in Guangning City in just ten days, and they can march east to kill the Liao River at any time!" ”
An hour later, the court meeting held in the Taihe Hall finally ended, the money and grain for the army to go to Liaodong were still not settled, the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty were prevaricating and arguing with each other, except for Liu Yunwei, no one really discussed state affairs at all.
Seeing this situation, Emperor Chongzhen was so angry that he waved his sleeves and returned to the palace with a full of sorrow, and Liu Yunwei also walked towards the palace with a heavy heart; Zhou Yanru and other ministers of the DPRK and China, especially those of the Donglin Party, were talking and laughing, talking in groups, as if they were a group of victorious generals, very happy, and some imperial historians were also discussing which restaurant to go to for a drinking party for a while.
When they arrived at the gate of the palace, Liu Yunwei and Zhou Yanru happened to meet, Liu Yunwei arched his hand towards Zhou Yanru, and after saying hello, he was about to turn around and leave, but was stopped by Zhou Yanru.
"Hehe, why is Uncle Pojun in such a hurry? Are you going to go back to the whole army and practice martial arts? ”
Liu Yunwei smiled faintly and said, "This governor is in a hurry to go back and burn incense and face the wall. ”
"Oh? Why? ”
Zhou Yanru laughed loudly, deliberately raised his voice a little too high, and said, "Uncle Po Jun actually wants to go back to burn incense and face the wall?" What does this mean? Yes? Haha......"
When more than a dozen Donglin Party ministers heard Zhou Yanru's words, they all gathered around, pointing at Liu Yunwei incessantly, whispering something to each other, or sneering incessantly, as if they were watching a monkey show.
Liu Yunwei looked at everyone, sneered and said: "This governor has not read any sage books, but he also knows the truth that the king humiliates the ministers to death, and the monarch worries about the humiliation of the ministers!" Now that the state affairs are difficult, the Manchu Qing Dynasty in Liaodong is growing stronger and stronger, but the national dynasty cannot take out the money and food for the army to go to Liaodong, how ridiculous is this! His Majesty has been working hard day and night for the sake of state affairs, and his face is full of sorrow, while the ministers of the court and the central government are still laughing and singing night and night, and dare to ask your lordships where you have read the words of the sage? They are all eaten in the stomach with the delicacies of the mountains and seas! Although the governor is vulgar, but there is still some shame, since he can't share his worries for His Majesty, then he can only go home and burn incense and face the wall, and reflect on his sins! Leave! ”
After speaking, Liu Yunwei turned around and walked away, leaving only a group of embarrassed and angry "virtuous and upright" ministers.
And that Zhou Yanru was even more feverish in his cheeks, looking at Liu Yunwei's back and being furious, he said fiercely: "Liu Yunwei! If you have the ability, you will always win the battle, and if you have the ability, you should not let the old man catch the handle, otherwise, the old man will definitely put you to death when he unites the righteous people in the court! ”
After Liu Yunwei left the palace, he prepared to go out of the city and return to the camp, and the next morning he led the pacesetter battalion and the soldiers of the Yue cavalry battalion to Tongzhou City to station.
However, when Liu Yunwei led 50 guards to Qiansanmen Street, he found that Wang Chengen and two entourages were waiting at the street intersection in front, and Wang Chengen and his party were all wearing civilian clothes, looking like the housekeepers of a large family, inconspicuous.
Seeing this, Liu Yunwei hurriedly stepped forward and saluted, saying, "What is my father-in-law doing here?" ”
Wang Chengen said with a smile: "Uncle Po Jun is in such a hurry, the miscellaneous family is fortunate to go back to Beijing with Uncle Po Jun, and I haven't had time to sit down with Uncle Po Jun to drink and talk about the day." No, the miscellaneous family was in a hurry to leave the palace after seeing the next dynasty, so they rushed here to wait for the uncle. ”
When Liu Yunwei heard this, he didn't know what Wang Chengen meant, most of this was Emperor Chongzhen who sent Wang Chengen to wait for him, it seems that Emperor Chongzhen still wants to inquire about my family background in the four towns of Jiliao.
Thinking of this, Liu Yunwei couldn't help but sigh slightly in his heart, and said secretly: "It seems that Your Majesty is already cornered, the ministers of the DPRK and China are like this, and the state affairs are so difficult, it is really embarrassing for Your Majesty!" ”
"How dare the Governor bother his father-in-law to wait here? In this way, the governor invited his father-in-law to drink a glass of thin wine, and invited his father-in-law to appreciate his face. ”
There are countless restaurants and wine shops on the first Sanmen Street, Liu Yunwei found a very famous Beijing restaurant, chartered a secluded private room on the third floor, and invited Wang Chengen in. And Liu Yunwei's fifty guards and soldiers scattered in all directions, controlling the entire third floor of the restaurant, not allowing any idlers to get close to the private room, and even there were several guards on the street outside the restaurant.
As for Wang Chengen's two entourage, they entered the private room with Wang Chengen, and Liu Yunwei didn't say anything about it.
After taking a seat, the shopkeeper served a table of delicious food like flowing water, and also served a jar of wine, and Wang Chengen's two entourages stepped forward to pour wine and food for Liu Yunwei and Wang Chengen, and then retreated to the side and said nothing.
"Father-in-law, please!"
After Liu Yunwei and Wang Chengen drank a cup of each other, Wang Chengen said with a smile: "Haha, Uncle Po Jun is majestic today, the miscellaneous family heard that Zhou Ge Lao ate a turtle, and those ministers in the court are all swept away, haha!" ”
Liu Yunwei smiled faintly when he heard this, and said: "Zhou Yanru and those Donglin Party members all have the name of Zhongzheng, but they have no practical talents, they only know that the party is the same and different, but they don't have any real insight, just a group of mediocre talents!" The Governor did not want to be like such a useless scholar, but in today's affairs, instead of sharing the worries of the country, they sneered and did everything they could to mix up bad things, so the Governor taught them a lesson, so that they could know what is called courtesy, righteousness, and shame, and what is called the way of being a minister! ”
Wang Chengen couldn't help but be a little surprised when he heard this, he thought that Liu Yunwei was just brave and resourceful, but today it seems that Liu Yunwei is still interested in the court, and he doesn't pay any attention to those empty talk and mislead the country in the court.
"In this case, Your Majesty's thoughts will be sixty percent certain."
Thinking of this, Wang Chengen said with a smile: "Uncle Pojun is really loyal, and the miscellaneous family is not used to the style of those civil ministers on weekdays, but the affairs of the court and the central government still depend on these ministers, so the miscellaneous family is not easy to say." As for today's matter discussed by the Japanese court, the miscellaneous family is worried when they see His Majesty, and they are also anxious in their eyes! ”
"The father-in-law is really loyal to His Majesty, the governor admires it, come, the governor respects the father-in-law with a glass."
After speaking, Liu Yunwei and Wang Chengen had a drink.
Wang Chengen saw that Liu Yunwei was just drinking and eating, so he frowned, groaned for a while, and said: "Uncle Pojun, there are no outsiders here today, and the miscellaneous family has a heart-wrenching sentence that wants to talk to Uncle Pojun." If Uncle Po Jun has any objections, it should be regarded as nonsense from the miscellaneous family. ”
Liu Yunwei took a sip of the wine glass and said, "Father-in-law, it's okay to say it's okay, and the governor listens." ”
Wang Chengen paused slightly, and then said: "That's the case, Your Majesty wants to let Po Jun Bo carry out the money and grain needed to raise the Han Wei Army to go to Liaodong, and use the tax on the acres of land in the four towns of Jiliao as compensation, I don't know what to do with Po Junbo?" ”
Liu Yunwei laughed out loud when he heard this, and said, "Your Majesty, is this asking me Liu Yunwei to divide one side!" ”
