Chapter 316: Final Word
Zhao Ji returned to his imperial study angrily, he couldn't have imagined that an ordinary resignation would cause such a serious infighting in the court, Gao Yu was obviously involved in this case, Cai Jing was overzealous, and his intention to bring down the master was too obvious, and a big war was about to break out, but these important ministers did not take into account the overall situation of the court, and only thought of their own interests one by one, which really annoyed Zhao Ji's heart. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Zhao Ji was also dissatisfied with Tong Guan, his final attack on Cai Jing was too harsh and unseemly, and at the same time, there was also a hint in the dispute between Tong Guan and Cai Jing that the promotion of the seed master was guilty, so should he Zhao Ji also be responsible for promoting the seed master dao?
At this time, Liang Shicheng appeared beside Zhao Ji silently, and put a stack of scrolls on the table, "These are the appointments and dismissals of ministers above the fifth grade, please review them." ”
The first one is the resignation letter of the Seed Master Dao, Zhao Ji sighed and asked Liang Shicheng, "What does the Taifu think of the resignation of the Seed Master Dao?" ”
"It's better to be ashamed!"
Zhao Ji glanced at him, "What do you mean by this?" ”
Liang Shicheng sighed slightly: "You must also have courage to sin!" If he doesn't say it, who knows about it, he can take the initiative to admit his mistakes, and is willing to resign to apologize, which shows that he is open in his heart, but the old minister feels that the fundamental reason for this is because of his loyalty to His Majesty, only because of his loyalty to His Majesty, he will be ashamed of His Majesty's trust in him, Your Majesty, the general is easy to find, and the loyal minister is hard to find! ”
Zhao Ji nodded lightly, Liang Shicheng's words said to his heart, a group of important ministers in the court today, no matter how they poured, were actually out of their own selfishness, but the seed master who asked for sin was loyal to himself.
He pondered for a long time, picked up the pen and wrote the word 'no' in the resignation of the planter, thought about it, and wrote eight words behind his back, 'learn a lesson and actively prepare for war'.
He put down his pen and handed the resignation letter to Liang Shicheng, "Give it to the planter!" ”
........
A controversy over the pouring of seeds and the preservation of seeds finally ended because of the instructions of the Son of Heaven, the seed master wept bitterly, knelt in front of the Xuande Gate and shouted long live, and then returned to Taiyuan Mansion on the same day.
Although this dispute between the inversion of seeds and the preservation of seeds did not expand, and like a soap bubble, it burst as soon as it was formed, but it invisibly contributed to another by-product, that is, the initial formation of the two opposing political forces in the imperial court.
But for Zhao Ji, the son of heaven, he was more concerned about the Western Xia campaign, under his repeated supervision, the imperial court once again to Taiyuan and Xijing each increased 50,000 troops, and at the same time increased a large number of grain and grass materials, Zhao Ji was personally approved by the imperial pen, and the war preparations for the Western Xia were completed within three months.
In mid-July, Taiwei Tong Guan, as the commander of the third-line operations of the Northwest Army, left Bianjing and rushed to Taiyuan.
Taiyuan Military Office, since Li Yanqing concurrently served as a recorder to join the army, he temporarily left the barracks and stayed in the Taiyuan Military Office, which is also the need to stabilize the situation, Zhao Yuan was arrested, and his minions Yang Huai and Liu Chen were also arrested at the same time, and Ma Shun, who was arrested before, was actually Zhao Yuan's minions, but he was exposed first and was killed by Zhao Yuan.
And Shao Ju, another chief of the army, was also suspended because he was too close to Zhao Yuan, and the people in the Eighth Division were unstable, some people were worried that they were implicated by Zhao Yuan, but some people were worried about the vacant position, in this case, it was extremely necessary for Li Yanqing to sit in the military department.
Although he was promoted, but at the same time, he also added things, Li Yanqing was extremely busy during the period when the master Dao entered Beijing, and the reports of the eight divisions had to be collected on his desk, he had to distinguish priorities, which things had to be done immediately, and which things had to wait for the approval of the boss, and basically had to be busy until dark every day.
This afternoon, Li Yanqing called Yan Jiuling into the room, pointed to one of his reports, and said: "Let me ask you, last month's inventory of iron armor was 39,800 pairs, excluding the 3,400 pairs taken away this month, then there should be 36,400 pairs left, but there are still 37,200 pairs left in your report, what is the matter with the extra 800 pairs of iron armor?" ”
Because Si Kai joined the army Yang Huai was arrested, Yan Jiuling is currently temporarily serving as Si Kai joining the army, this is the first report he wrote to join the army, but Li Yanqing found the problem, his face was flushed, "My subordinates will investigate." ”
"There is no need to investigate, there should still be eight hundred pairs of damaged inventory iron armor, which have not been returned to the Ordnance Supervisor, but there is no one in your report, you must have mixed them together."
"Ahh The subordinates really didn't pay attention. ”
Li Yanqing returned the report to him, "Let's write it again!" Give it to me before noon tomorrow, and I'll also compile and write a report to the seed marshal. ”
"The humble post must be delivered on time."
"Before you hand me the report, you'd better have to ask the operator to go to the warehouse to verify it."
"Humble duty understood."
Yan Jiuling bowed and left, Li Yanqing looked at his distant back, although he was not very satisfied with Yan Jiuling's report, but in fact, Yan Jiuling was an official he valued very much, and he belonged to the kind of henchman he could control, and he intended to promote Yan Jiuling to join the army as the main officer.
At this time, a cheerful voice came from the courtyard, "Brother Liang, are you back?" ”
"I'm back, I almost tired me to death along the way, I brought you a few people something to eat, and I'll give it to you when I go back."
"Thank you, Brother Liang!"
Li Yanqing heard the voice, got up and smiled: "The stinky boy is finally back?" ”
I saw Yang Liang walk into the room quickly, bow down and salute: "Join the army, the villain is back." ”
Yang Liang should have come back ten days ago, Li Yanqing estimated that he had been playing in the capital for a few days, and went home to visit his relatives by the way, but Li Yanqing didn't want to pursue this trivial matter.
"It should be a smooth journey!"
"It's very smooth, I met the outsider, and he asked me to tell the army that he did exactly what you explained, and rewarded the villain with fifty taels of silver, and the villain bought a lot of things and came back, and distributed them to the brothers, and there was also a letter."
Yang Liang took out Li Daqi's handwritten letter from his arms and presented it to Li Yanqing, the letter was very thick, writing four or five pages, Li Yanqing planned to go back and read it carefully, he put the letter aside, and asked, "Does my father have any other messages?" ”
"Also, let me tell the army that everything is fine with the relatives in Hangzhou, and there is a big family over there, which is very lively, so don't worry about it."
"I see!"
Li Yanqing smiled: "Go ahead!" Take three days off and get a good rest. ”
Yang Liang left happily, Li Yanqing opened his father's letter and read it carefully, the first half was simply a business report, which made Li Yanqing cry and laugh, he skipped it directly, and the third page began to have substantive content.
The letter mentioned that Lushan Academy has been renamed Lushan Academy, and his father has invested more than 7,000 yuan to expand the academy by five times, and the number of students has exceeded 1,000.
Li Yanqing looked at this text again, and the corners of his eyes were slightly moist, this was the last entrustment given to him by the master, I didn't expect it to be realized by my father so quickly, but I also personally promised the master that one day I would make Lushan Academy the number one academy in the world, but this is not achieved by money.
Li Yanqing sighed, and continued to read his father's letter, but he was not interested in the content of the back, and almost two pages behind him were talking about him not to go to the front line, giving countless examples, nothing more than a sentence, he was a civilian official, not a military general who went into battle to kill the enemy.
Although his father had good intentions, Li Yanqing was really not interested in reading it a second time, so he put the letter away.
At this time, Li Yanqing remembered one more thing, all of Zhao Yuan's belongings had been packed, and he hadn't had time to inspect them, and now he happened to be a little free, so Li Yanqing got up and came to the original Zhao Yuan's official room.
Zhao Yuan's official room is very large, the tables and cabinets have been removed, and the floor of the room is full of more than 20 large boxes, which are all kinds of intelligence materials copied from his official room and dormitory, and the contents of each box are written on it.
Although Zhao Yuan once wanted to put him Li Yanqing to death, Li Yanqing also had to admit that Zhao Yuan's intelligence collection ability was very strong, and he spent a few years collecting more than 20 boxes of various information about Hedong County, such as terrain, population, city, transportation, taxes, agricultural output, commerce, minerals, smelting, and even folk customs, etc., almost everything, fortunately, Zhao Yuan has not sent them out.
A few days ago, the seed master wanted to destroy all these intelligence materials, but under Li Yanqing's persuasion, these materials were preserved, and the knife can kill or save people, and the responsibility is not the knife, but the person who uses the knife, and it is a pity that these valuable intelligence materials are destroyed.
At this time, Li Yanqing came to the largest box, and the two big characters 'map' were written on the box in white paint, indicating that the items in the box were all maps.
Li Yanqing opened a large box, which was filled with nearly 100 volumes of maps, this box of maps was found from the cellar of Zhao Yuan's dormitory, each volume of maps was wrapped in oiled paper, labeled, and very well preserved, although the military government also had a map room, but Li Yanqing was sure that Zhao Yuan's maps were more practical and strategic.
He took out the longest and largest map, which was drawn on a silk cloth map of the whole road in Hedong, five feet wide and nearly two zhang long, marking in great detail the location of the cities in each state and county on Hedong Road, as well as the topographical trend of mountains and rivers and the direction of river flow, as well as fine and dense official roads and horse roads.
But it will take at least a month or two just to depict such a map, Li Yanqing doesn't know where Zhao Yuan got the original map, at least he can be sure that there is no such map in the military office, is there no original map, he himself drew it?
At this time, Li Yanqing glanced at it and found a map that he was very interested in, the map was labeled with the Jinning Army, Li Yanqing put the map on the table and slowly unfolded it, he was very familiar with the various terrains on this map, more than a month ago, he was almost killed by more than two hundred Western Xia cavalry here.
Li Yanqing quickly found the Oolong Village, Shenquan Village and the area where they were ambushed on the map, he looked at it carefully, he seemed to see something, and then looked carefully, Li Yanqing couldn't help but gasp.
