No. 444 The second anti-bone boy is not simple
Lu Huiqing was not angry because of Cai Dao's threat, but laughed out loud. Then he said: "The old man is not here to threaten you this time. However, I do want you to say a few kind words for the old man. ”
"Oh!" Countless thoughts rolled in Cai Dao's mind, and suddenly the word Da Yue flashed in his mind, and with a flash of inspiration, he suddenly thought of the purpose of Lu Huiqing's trip.
It turned out that after this old guy heard about his plan to attack Da Yue, he set his sights on the position of Guizhou Zhizhou, Guangnan West Road Transfer Envoy.
I see, I have to say that Cai Dao still really admires this discerning old guy.
Cai Dao formulated a plan to destroy the Great Yue Kingdom, which was to sail directly into the Red River by sea and go straight to Shenglong City. That's not to say that the overland route doesn't matter. If there is a capable minister who is willing to suffer a loss, he will be appointed as the governor of Guizhou, the transfer envoy of Guangnan West Road, gather the local garrison and recruit some soldiers in the same place, train on the spot, and hold the checkpoints on the border.
Of course, it is enough to guard against it, and there is no need to defend it. This transporter only needs to hold the final checkpoint, Kunlun Pass. After stabilizing the border, the transshipment envoy used the wealth to attract some barbarians down the mountain, and organized them to cross the border to attack the troops of the Great Yue Kingdom on the Song-Xia border. In this way, it can attract most of the Dayue troops to gather on the Song-Vietnamese border on the surface.
Nowadays, there are not many officials in the DPRK and China who are suitable for this position.
Zhang Dian, Zeng Bu and the Cai brothers are naturally very suitable candidates, but which of the four of them is willing to take the initiative to give up the flowery world of Bianliang City and go to the miasma of Guangnan West Road to become an official?
What's more, this time I went to give the generals to fight. Meritorious service is meritorious, but the reputation is not good!
Now that I think about it, this other anti-bone boy in front of me is indeed the most suitable candidate!
"Master Lu, I take the liberty of asking you, what are you going to do after the transfer of Guangnan West Road? Are you still hoping that because of this incident, the official family will use you as the prime minister again? Cai Dao did not directly reply to Lu Huiqing's expectations, but asked Lu Huiqing a somewhat inconsequential sentence.
But Lu Huiqing just understood, it seems that this kid is indeed smart, and before he opened his mouth, the other party had already guessed his true intention to visit him this time.
"Daochang Cai, it seems that you also think so, this transfer envoy is indeed the old man! As for the rest of the matter, with the merit of destroying the country, after the old man returns to Beijing, he will be a deputy minister, or a privy envoy, and the old man is still qualified! Now that Cai Dao has guessed what he meant, Lu Huiqing will not hide his purpose and desire.
Hearing this, Cai Dao laughed and said, "Hahaha! Lord Lu is not wrong. Even if the civil officials did not take matters into their own hands when the Great Yue Kingdom was destroyed, it was naturally a great achievement for you to send troops to contain its army on the border, and your qualifications and merits were indeed enough for you to return to Beijing. However, there is one thing that you may not know yet, in a short period of time, the official family will only use Han Zhen as the prime minister, and the position of the privy envoy has already been booked, even the deputy privy envoy, you don't have to expect it, because in the future, the deputy privy envoy will increase to eleven people, and each deputy privy envoy is a general in the army. ”
As he spoke, Cai Dao made no secret of the contempt in his eyes.
Cai Dao's words were like a thunderbolt in the clear sky, almost shocking Lu Huiqing stupidly.
You must know that after the founding of the Great Song Dynasty, even when the powerful Zhao Pu and Lu Yijian were in power, there was no such thing as being alone. The official family will still arrange one or several deputies or even opponents around him to control the power of the prime minister.
In addition, the official family is actually ready to give all the positions of deputy privy envoys to the military attaché, wouldn't it completely mess up the government, this kind of thing, not to mention that the conservative ministers will not agree, even the ministers of the reform faction will not agree. With his understanding of Zhang Dun, he would definitely be the first to jump out and oppose it.
Don't forget, at the beginning, Di Qing was because he couldn't see the situation clearly, listened to Renzong's words, and became a privy envoy, but he was sprayed to death by civil officials. At that time, even Emperor Renzong couldn't keep this famous general.
"Master Lu, sometimes, Poor Dao is really a pity for you capable civil officials, it's not worth it. You are only willing to stay in Bianliang City, thinking that in this way you can gain the favor of the official family. Once you are transferred to a local position, you will think that this is a denigration of you, and you will feel that you have lost the trust of the officials. Actually, it's completely wrong. Under the whole world, it is not the imperial land. The whole world is official, how can he despise local officials?
The reason is that the local officials, especially those who are on the fringes and there is no war on the border, it is naturally difficult for the chief officials there to come out. But this is not the root cause, but because these officials were mediocre officials before. If you can do something locally, and you can bring a lot of benefits to Bianliang City, even if you don't want to arouse the idea of the officials, it is impossible. If you think about Zhang's experience, you will naturally understand.
What's more, you have already contributed too much to the Great Song Dynasty in your life. Why don't you plan for yourself? After the fall of the Great Yue Kingdom, the official family was bound to re-establish the road there. And the south of Dayue, is the city of Zhancheng, the east of the city of Zhancheng, the south of Dali there are countless countries, there are all the land of cream, although the weather is a little hot, but the land can basically make rice harvest three seasons of grain a year. I don't know why, Cai Dao said such heartfelt words to Lu Huiqing.
Cai Dao couldn't say the rest of the words, because although Lu Huiqing had a military strategy, he was not a military general after all, and whether he had the ambition of a military general, others did not know.
In short, what Cai Dao wants is to plant a seed in Lu Huiqing's heart, and in the future, when the military attaches of the Great Song Dynasty flock to overseas to build a country, they don't know if Lu Huiqing can resist the temptation of building a country by himself.
"By the way, Lord Lu, if you see Master Xingshu, you might as well let him come to see me. However, you can rest assured that his abilities are different from yours, and that what Poor Dao has to hand over to him is another dirty job. You can't run away from your official position as a transit envoy. After you see him, you just need to persuade him, not too deliberately. Cai Dao specially instructed.
When Cai Dao saw Lu Huiqing, he suddenly thought of the unlucky guy who became the deputy minister with Lu Huiqing, but was quickly dismissed from his post - Xing Shu, this villain who is as famous as Yang Wei, but who is constantly in a daze, Cai Dao is also ready to use him, now it depends on how big he is to continue to be an official. Sometimes, if the villain is used properly, his role is much stronger than that of a gentleman.
So, in the unexpected circumstances, Lu Huiqing was the first to be 'demoted' out of Bianliang City, and was appointed as the governor of Guizhou and the transfer envoy of Guangnan West Road. There is no objection to the candidate for this official position.
After listening to Di Yong's remarks and requests, Zhao Xu did not agree to Di Yong's request, and he arbitrarily selected this candidate who was responsible for attracting the troops of the Great Yue Kingdom.
