Chapter 38: The Reverse Journey (6)
[The second update of the new year, I won't be too much red envelopes. 】
Just looking at Chong Jianzhong's expression, Han Gang had a little bad feeling in his heart: "Could it be the Xiongwu Army?" ”
Kind of Jianzhong Ha Lu Hazan said: "Yu Kun is really talented. ”
This 'sure enough' is not good. Although Han Gang's face did not change, his brain hurt. Unexpectedly, Guo Kui would want to move the Xiongwu Army to stay behind.
Qinzhou's army is the Xiongwu Army, like Wu Yan, the lord of Hangang, who is the judge of the Xiongwu Army. Although the official has nothing to do with the actual dispatch - Wang Shao's official is the crown prince Zhongyun, but Zhao Ji doesn't even have a son. Wu Yan's official is Dali Temple, and he doesn't work in Dali Temple - Guo Kui should not come to Qinzhou.
Logically so, but what if? In case Guo Kui's transfer to the Xiongwu Army is a signal given by the DPRK and China, it will be a headache.
Guo Kui is ambitious, talented, prestigious, status, and more experienced. But his biggest problem is that he likes to have a monopoly on power. In Yanyan, he was squeezed by him. If he arrives in Qinzhou, will Wang Shao still have a place to stand? You must know that Wang Shao, Li Shizhong, and Xiang Bao can't get along, because of the struggle for power. Guo Kui's prestige in the army in Kansai is far higher than that of Li Shizhong and Xiang Bao. He came to Qinzhou to take up his post, and the strategy of opening up Hehuang should continue, but before that, Wang Shao would definitely be kicked aside first.
Han Gang and Chong Jianzhong glanced at each other, and smiled bitterly together, no one can say anyone, one Guo Kui will make the two families have a headache and will crack, and luck will fall on one person.
"By the way," Speaking of Suide City, Han Gang remembered the goatee he met on the road today, and the news he heard from the old tax collector, "I don't know if a few people have heard of it, Deputy Envoy Chen of the Transshipment Department ordered the tax card of the whole territory of Shaanxi to strengthen the tax inspection, even if you have an official status, you are not allowed to bring commercial goods through the customs privately." ”
After hearing this, Chong Yi and Chong Jianzhong suddenly fell into deep thought, Chen Yi's approach was so abnormal that they couldn't believe it, but Chong Pu didn't think too much, and directly shook his head and said: "It's impossible, how many people do you have to offend?" When did Vice Envoy Chen have the courage to do this? ”
"It is said that it is because the money and grain provided to Suide City are insufficient, and the collection must be strengthened." Han Gang said Chen Yi's reasons plainly, waiting for the reaction of the three of the breeders.
With a bang, Chong Pu took the lead in taking the case, his eyes were round, and his hair was angry. He exclaimed, "How dare he say that?!" ”
"Is there such a thing?!" He was just as surprised, and asked again, "But is it true?!" ”
"The little nephew is from the ninth grade, what is the arrangement of the deputy envoy for transport!?" Han Gang asked rhetorically. He is an official of Qinzhou, and the problem of Yan Yanlu has nothing to do with him at all, and Chen Yi's small actions can't disturb Qin Feng, he believes that this kind of thing can be understood.
"Xiang Zhuang dances the sword, which is intended for Pei Gong." Lu Ming interjected a sentence on the side, trying his best to show his existence.
Chong Jianzhong slammed the table hard, "This is a plan to drive the tiger and devour the wolf!" ”
Chen Yi's intentions are not only thought through in the construction of the plant, but also can be understood in the cultivation and simplicity. It is nothing more than inciting people's hearts to interfere with Suide. Even if his order is eventually stopped, he can justifiably not provide enough money and food for Suide City.
Chong Jianzhong continued indignantly: "No wonder Chen Yi ordered that Qingmiao loans should not be issued in Huanzhou and Gyeongju, which are border military states, and he also said that he would keep the permanent liquidation and prepare for emergency use, which turned out to be more like acting. ”
"How can the prince tolerate him?!" Lu Ming immediately asked.
Han Gang explained his confusion: "Chen Yi did this precisely to block the mouth of the prince Wang. ”
The more Chen Yi used the excuse of closing the position as an excuse to refuse to scatter his wealth and goods, and the more he used the lack of money and food as an excuse to stop issuing green seedling loans, the more it seemed that he had strengthened the correctness of taxation, and the more justified he was to go to the neck of Kasuide City.
Moreover, he used Suide's waste of money and grain as an excuse to stop issuing Qingmiao loans, and wanted to retain the standing liquidation reserves that should have been used for Qingmiao's lending business, which was tantamount to hitting his right hand with Wang Anshi's left hand - it was Wang Anshi who promulgated the Qingmiao Law, and it was Wang Anshi who advocated Suide's strategy - maybe Wang Anshi could not find any excuse to deal with him.
Chen Yi can be regarded as the extreme of the world's lover's heart, and he is worthy of being an official who is good at criminal names. If he is mentioning the prison yamen, his performance will definitely be better than that of the transfer department. Han Gang admires Chen Yi very much, and Wang Anshi is not necessarily, any strategy has a scope of application, if it is broken by force and Chen Yi is dealt with directly, it is useless to make any calculations.
The air was solemn, and several people sat silently, and the atmosphere was calm as if they were guarding people's spirits. The three uncles and nephews of the seed family all frowned, and Han Gang and Lu Ming all squeezed out the same expressions to accompany them, and Liu Zhongwu looked very relaxed.
"Forget it...... Never mind...... Don't talk about these worries. Chong Jianzhong shook his hand, as if he wanted to sweep away all the stumbling ropes that bound him and made it difficult for him to perform. If you want to deal with Chen Yi, unless someone in the court makes a move, with a few of them, there is no way. "That's right! Yukun, who else do you guess the little brother met today? ”
"No head and no brain, how can I know the Tao." Han Gang saw that he and Chong Jianzhong were talking, and the others were listening and drinking, so he picked up the wine jug and stood up and poured a glass for everyone.
"It's Uncle You Jing!"
"Did you meet Uncle You Jing?" Han Gang put down the flask and sat down. Chong Jianzhong's words made him regret that he walked slower.
You Shixiong You Jingshu is considered to be the senior brother of Han Gang and Chong Jianzhong, and among Zhang Zai's many disciples, You Shixiong's talent is also one of the outstanding. In terms of Jingyi Avenue, under the Hengqu Gate, the three brothers of the Lu family in Lantian - Lv Dalin, Lv Dajun, and Lv Dazhong - are the most, and in terms of military affairs, they are headed by You Shixiong.
He is still young in the middle of the building, but the talent of the generals' disciples in military science should not be underestimated. As for Han Gang, the impression left on the classmates is that his archery skills are not bad, but he is a nerd who has worked too hard. Who would have thought that he has now been recommended as an official and is now about to enter Beijing to hand over his family certificate?
However, You Shixiong is not only good at military affairs, but also excellent in literature, and was admitted to the Jinshi early, and was born in the Long Fei List in the second year of Zhiping [Note 1], which made Zhang Zai's disciples very envious. Among Zhang Zai's disciples, Lu Dazhong and Lu Dajun among the Lantian Lu brothers are all Jinshi and first. Lu Dazhong was earlier than Zhang Zai, and Lu Dajun was in the same department as Zhang Zai, even so, they still respected Zhang Zai as a teacher.
You Shixiong is now here, and his fame is outside, and Zhang Zai's disciples are of course impressed. Especially for disciples like Chong Jianzhong and Han Gang, who are biased towards military affairs, this is even more so.
"The last time I heard about Uncle You Jing, he should have joined the army in Yizhou, and now he is in Jingzhao, is he transferred or promoted?"
"What up, up?" Chong Jianzhong shook his head, "He is a martial artist [now Wugong County, Shaanxi]. This time, I went to the transshipment department to report on my work, and by the way, I returned to my hometown to save my relatives. ”
"Are you gone?" Han Gang asked anxiously.
For a senior brother with high talent and status like You Shixiong, Han Gang is naturally very interested in making friends. Later generations paid attention to the four major irons, and at this time, they also paid attention to the same townspeople, the same year, and the same door, and had a good relationship with the same brothers who were also disciples of Hengqu, and their foundation would be more stable.
"I went back to Yizhou early this morning, and I hurriedly said a few words on the side of the road." There are some regrets in the construction of the species, You Shixiong entered the junior high school early, and he and Han Gang are only a few sides of the relationship, but they have not been able to have a deep friendship, this time they met, but it is a farewell, "Speaking of which, Uncle You Jing has gone through three exams, and the grinding survey has also passed, and he will probably be transferred next year." If you are transferred out of Kansai, it will be difficult to see you again. ”
He sighed together, he was getting older, and he had been in the world for a long time, and he felt more deeply about it. At this time, it is difficult to meet, and it is even more difficult to meet again. Say goodbye to the left, and when you hear it again, it may have been separated by yin and yang.
Han Gang smiled and said casually: "Why bother to be a child!" The wine is in the cup, and the person is in front of him. Instead of sighing, it's better to get drunk! ”
"Well said!" Chong Pu clapped his hands and laughed.
Han Gang's few words, extremely bold, are in line with the simple temper. He stood up and raised a glass to invite, and everyone responded with a bang, and drank bitterly, and the guests and hosts were happy.
Chong Jianzhong and Han Gang have been classmates for two years, and the relationship is only mediocre. But when I met by chance tonight and talked to each other, I only felt that I was like-minded with Han Gang, and the character style was the only one I saw in my life. After drinking, the banquet dispersed, and Chong Jianzhong and Chong Pu dragged Han Gang to talk at night.
Until the early morning of the next day, Han Gang, who had been chatting all night, was sent out by the two brothers in Jianzhong. Han Gang's talents and insights are all first-class, even if he can't take advantage of the situation like Wang Hou did that day to make people fall to the ground, but it is enough to make the second son of the seed family deeply respected.
Back in his courtyard, the doors of the three wings were wide open, and neither Liu Zhongwu nor Lu Ming were in the room. Li Xiaoliu had already gotten up at this time, Han Gang walked into the door, and with a command, he brought the toiletries.
Wiping his face with a hot handkerchief, Han Gang pointed to the neighbor next door and asked, "What about Liu Guanren and Lu Xue?" ”
Li Xiaoliu replied: "Liu Guanren went to the stable early in the morning to take care of his horse, and it seemed that the hooves were sharpened. Lu Xue led his mule out of the city, not knowing what he was going to do. ”
Han Gang replied casually, signaling that he had heard.
Lu Ming's mule was originally yesterday's unlucky fat Shu merchant, and it also came with a camel of valuable goods, Lu Ming brought more local products from Pizhou, but it could not be sold at a high price, and there was only one famous product in Pizhou - that is, Tianjia clay people, a pair can be worth more than ten times. Other than that, there's nothing of value. Otherwise, the goods on the back of Lu Ming's old mule would not have been piled up into a mountain.
And the goods obtained from the Shu merchants, just by looking at the shape of the package, you can determine that it is a special silk of Shu. Shu brocade is precious, even the cheapest silk is worth at least thirty or forty times. It's just that now that the tax card in Kansai is strict, and Han Gang promised to take him to Beijing with him, it is impossible for the mule to keep up with the speed of the stagecoach, so he simply sells all the horses and replaces them for coiling. Han Gang was very clear about Lu Ming's thoughts.
Liu Zhongwu's horseshoe, Han Gang was not interested. There was only one strange thing in his heart, why didn't he have any news about the person he expected to arrive?
Han Gang was thinking about it, when there was a knock on the door, Li Xiaoliu went over and opened the door, and a post guard walked in, handed over a famous post with respectful hands, and said, "There is an old man outside who asks to see two officials, Han and Liu. ”
Han Gang took the name post, smiled slightly, and muttered: "It's finally here." He looked up and said to Li Xiaoliu, "Go and invite Liu Guanren." ”
Li Xiaoliu was about to leave the mouth when he answered, and before turning around, he glanced at the cover of the famous post, on which a row of small characters was written uprightly, among which the four characters with larger fonts were-
Pucheng Zhangyu.
Note 1: Long Fei Bang: The first time the new emperor opened a branch after ascending the throne, it was called Long Fei Bang. Song Yingzong Zhao Shu opened a department for the first time after he ascended the throne, which was in the second year of Zhiping.
