Chapter 59: The Imperial Decree
Half a month later, the military capital mountain camp.
"Zuo Gong, are you here?" Looking at the angel sent by the imperial court, Ye Zhao smiled and welcomed Zuo Feng into the camp of the Chinese army.
"Well, why don't you get a breath before us?" Zuo Feng shook his head, and under the leadership of Ye Zhao, he entered the big tent, and looked at Ye Zhao helplessly: "This matter was originally right, Macheng was attacked, and the county order was even more emperor, you mobilized the captain of Wuhuan to expel those Hu people, and even killed Xianbei Shan Yu, which is a great achievement, but you should not mobilize the soldiers and horses of the Wuhuan Captain Department to go out to fight outside the Saiwai without authorization." ”
"This is serious?" Ye Zhao frowned.
"It's not serious to say it's serious, after all, you won a big victory, but the bad thing is that you didn't notify me in advance, so I was unprepared." Zuo Feng sighed and said: "Do you know that the most taboo thing for Your Majesty is that the generals transfer troops without authorization, no matter how great the credit, if Your Majesty is suspicious of you, you are finished, not to mention that although you are a scholar, but you are not well connected, in the court, except for a few disciples and old friends of your teacher, no one speaks for you, and we don't know the news in advance, how can I speak for you?" ”
"Then I don't know what Your Majesty wants to do with me this time?" Ye Zhao frowned.
"Descend you to the Suiyang County Order, the edict arrives, immediately resign from the military, within three months, you must take office, there must be no mistakes, the rest, go see it yourself." Zuo Feng handed the edict to Ye Zhao and sighed.
Zhang Rang attaches great importance to Ye Zhao, after all, the Ten Standing Servants seem to be powerful, but in fact, they are completely from the favor of today's son, if there is no Son of Heaven, then his current status and power of the Ten Standing Servants will disappear immediately, and therefore, Zhang Rang wants to cultivate a general who can be used as foreign aid.
Ye Zhao is obviously very suitable, but in the past three years, although Ye Zhao is quite close to Zhang Rang and others, he has never had the intention of loyalty, the reason why Ye Zhao, a general who is good at fighting in the border army, will be transferred to the Central Plains to be the county commander, although Guo Xun, Liu Yan and others contributed, but the ten permanent servants are not really unable to help Ye Zhao, but they hope to take this opportunity to suppress Ye Zhao, so that Ye Zhao knows that only by following them can there be a future.
"It's okay, Suiyang is a big county, located in the Central Plains, it's better than being in this remote place." Ye Zhao smiled and said, he has already taken the merits that can be won in this village, and there is no point in continuing to stay, if there is no chaos today, the state pastoral system has not been restarted, even if he is a border general, it is not of much significance, even if there is no such thing, he will find an opportunity to leave and go to the Central Plains, this time to Suiyang, it can be regarded as his wish.
"You, now there are many people in the court who are jealous of your merits and go to the Central Plains, which is definitely not a good thing for you." Zuo Feng glared at Ye Zhao dissatisfied.
The Central Plains is not comparable to the borderland, it is impossible for Ye Zhao to act recklessly in Macheng first, and then make a big fuss in the grassland without anyone to restrain him, if he arrives in the Central Plains, Ye Zhao still dares to mess around like now, I am afraid it will not be long before he will cause trouble.
"Don't talk about this, the left and right can't be changed, Zuo Gong has worked hard all the way, and he has prepared a reception banquet for Zuo Gong, and I hope that Zuo Gong will appreciate it." Ye Zhao smiled and diverted the topic.
At that moment, Ye Zhao asked Qiu Chi to send someone to prepare the banquet, and in order to avoid Guan Hai's stunned speech, Ye Zhao directly asked him to inspect the fortress.
Don't look at this is a bitter cold place, but Ye Zhao is not a Qing official, the interests of the grassland, half of the quilt was sent to the imperial court, to the ten permanent servants, and the remaining half was almost all in his pocket, for life, Ye Zhao still knows how to enjoy it very well, regardless of the specifications and grades, it is not inferior to the family banquet of the princes and nobles.
Zuo Feng did not stay in the border village for a long time, as Zhang Rang's henchman, Zuo Feng must rush back to Luoyang as soon as possible to resume his life, just stayed in Jundu Mountain for two nights, and then left in a hurry, before leaving, Ye Zhao ordered people to load a cart of property and hand it to Zuo Feng to take back together, part of it was for Zuo Feng, and the other half was used to honor Zhang Rang and others.
Although Ye Zhao didn't want to get too close to these eunuchs, this connection, when it may not be used in the future, is that Ye Zhao is quite generous in scattering wealth, and now he is still accumulating foundations, and now it is definitely not the time to divide one side, therefore, in the case that the scholars can't find their own way out, Ye Zhao will never mind taking the road of the Ten Standing Servants.
"Lord, just leave?" After Zuo Feng left, Ye Zhao asked people to start packing up, and summoned Zhang Yue and other personal guards, as well as Ding Li, Guan Hai and others who came with him at the beginning, these people belonged to his generals and could be taken away, Guan Hai looked at the craftsmen who packed up, and looked at Ye Zhao with some unwillingness.
"The imperial court has issued an edict, if we disobey, don't say that the other troops of the imperial court, even these soldiers under our command will capture and kill us as soon as possible!" Ye Zhao shook his head, in the peaceful era, he was in a somewhat embarrassing situation as a general, the emperor guarded against you, and there were I don't know how many officials around him were monitoring your every move, and there were a lot of constraints, either like Zhao Rong who silently guarded the border for a lifetime, or just like he is now, he worked for a while, and as soon as he made achievements, he was immediately transferred by the imperial court, and there was not much freedom at all.
"But ......" Guan Hai is a little uncomfortable, to say the credit, although Ye Zhao has not been an official for a long time, but the credit is absolutely significant, governing Macheng, making Macheng stronger, once became the first city in this walled place, the popularity is even greater than the state capital, not to mention the relocation of the captain of Wuhuan, beheading and Lian, severely invading Suli, Miga, with a crowd of 5,000 people, there are 30,000 Hu people who have been killed, if you add the Hu people killed when you served in Macheng, I am afraid that 40,000 is enough.
These feats are enough for Ye Zhao to be promoted to the position of general, but now he has been appointed as a county order by the imperial court, you must know that Ye Zhao was a captain of Wuhuan before, and his rank was 1,600 stones, which was only half a level lower than the history of a state assassin, and he could even talk to the state assassin history on an equal footing, but now he didn't even have a guard, and he became a county order, which made Ye Zhao's retainers how to be happy.
"No, but." Ye Zhao looked at everyone, "The imperial edict has been issued, I know that you have grievances, if you are not willing to continue to follow me, Ye will not be strong." ”
"What are you talking about, my lord?" Guan Hai straightened his chest and looked at everyone: "If there is no lord, I will wait for me today, I think who dares to betray the lord!?" ”
"Guan Hai!" Ye Zhao frowned, and his tone was a little heavier.
When Guan Hai heard this, he couldn't help but retreat in a huff, Ye Zhao looked at Ding Li, Qiu Chi and the others: "Don't worry about him, what I said just now still works." ”
The atmosphere in the military tent suddenly became a little heavy.
