Chapter 750: Traveling on behalf of the sky
With Xia Yan's help, Emperor Jiajing issued an edict on the morning of the second day, and the inspector Zhang Jing, the right capital, and Zhao Wenhua, the priest of the country, set off to represent the Son of Heaven on the southeast coast on the same day. The first is to give condolences to the anti-Japanese soldiers on the southeast coast, because the Pingnan general Qin Li has fought against the Japanese on the southeast coast significantly, and the soldiers are united in their hearts, so this time they naturally brought a lot of condolences and military supplies. The second is that Zhang Jing and Zhao Wenhua also have to inspect the anti-Japanese soldiers on the southeast coast on behalf of the Son of Heaven, and find that the anti-Japanese soldiers do not do their best, and the lawbreakers can be severely punished.
On this trip, Zhang Jing was the chief inspector, and Zhao Wenhua served as the deputy inspector. What I have to say here is that although Zhang Jing is the inspector of the right capital of the imperial history, he is very excluded among the inspectors, and Xia Yan does not like this person very much. Because the cabinet chief assistant doesn't like him, Zhang Jing always wants to find a backer in the court. Zhang Jing thought about it, but still took refuge in Yan Song. In his opinion, although Yan Song is not at all conspicuous now, he was crushed by Xia Yan as the deputy assistant of the cabinet. But in the end, Xia Yan is nearly seventy years old, and there will be a day when he will be a scholar. In the cabinet, although the third-in-command Xu Jie is the youngest one, he is always better than Yan Song. In Zhang Jing's opinion, Yan Song's emergence was a matter close at hand, so Zhang Jing did not hesitate to take refuge in Yan Song.
From this point of view, these two people on this trip are Yan Song's people. Of course, this was only a private matter, and the ministers of the court knew very little about their relationship. Besides, even if a few ministers knew about this relationship, they also knew that Yan Song and Qin Li had a very good relationship, including Emperor Jiajing, who also thought that Yan Song and Qin Li had a great relationship, so no one would have thought that Zhang Jing and Zhao Wenhua would have any disadvantages to Qin Li when they went to the southeast this time.
Zhang Jing and Zhao Wenhua were Yan Song's people, and before they left, Yan Song not only secretly made some advice, asking the two of them to go to the southeast to make friends with Qin Li. Anyone can see that Qin Li is now the general of Pingnan of Zheng Erpin, the brother-in-law of the current emperor, and the youngest member of the court in the Ming Dynasty. If the Japanese on the southeast coast are exterminated this time, the possibility of Qin Li being crowned a marquis is very great.
For Yan Song's entrustment, the two of them were naturally full of promises in person, and kept them in mind.
Hehe, of course, it is Zhang Jing who keeps it in mind, as for Zhao Wenhua, what he thinks about now is that he can be regarded as powerful. Although Qin Li is the general of Pingnan of the second grade, how can he say that he is now inspecting on behalf of the Son of Heaven, although the official rank is far from Qin Li, Qin Li still has to be respectful to himself. You must know that if you are disrespectful to yourself, it is undoubtedly disrespectful to the emperor. Qin Li just has the audacity, does he dare to be disrespectful to the emperor?
Although he was only a deputy position, no matter how he said it, he was stuck on Qin Li's scalp. Zhao Wenhua couldn't help but be secretly ruthless in his heart, and said secretly, Qin Li, Qin Li, I didn't expect you to fall into the hands of me Zhao Wenhua one day, okay, this is my Zhao Wenhua's chance to take revenge. Oh my God! You're an eye-opener.
As for the full-time Zhang Jing, in Zhao Wenhua's opinion, although he is also a little scheming, he is still far from himself after all. Besides, he is Yan Song's person now, but Yan Song is his godfather, just by virtue of this, Zhang Jing doesn't want to listen to himself in many things. Isn't that at your mercy?
The more he thought about it, the more comfortable Zhao Wenhua became, and he was simply overjoyed. He couldn't wait to stand in front of Qin Li now, show off his might in front of Qin Li, or even grab Qin Li's handle, step on Qin Li into the green mud at once, or simply put Qin Li to death. Let Qin Li never turn over.
Of course, Zhao Wenhua naturally thought that Qin Li was now Emperor Jiajing's celebrity, if he really treated Qin Li as a person, Jiajing would not forgive him. But in Zhao Wenhua's mind, it was a simple matter, and when the time came, it would be up to him to figure out how he fiddled with Qin Li.
Zhao Wenhua thought about it, with his own ability, to separate the relationship between Qin Li and the emperor, and there would be no flaws in Qin Li after cleaning up, and the emperor would definitely have nothing to say at that time, and he would even vigorously commend himself, a loyal minister of the Ming Dynasty.
The more Zhao Wenhua thought about it, the more excited he became, so much so that he didn't fall asleep the night before leaving, and the three or five concubines who hugged him slept together.
On the second day, Zhang Jing and Zhao Wenhua embarked on the trip. Both of them were civil officials, so they naturally sat in a carriage all the way. The two hundred soldiers with him rode a high-headed horse, traveling on behalf of the emperor, naturally the scenery is infinite, and everyone is full of spirits and cannot be beaten.
Yes, there are many people who travel on behalf of the emperor in the Ming Dynasty, but the officials of the Ming Dynasty are like carp crossing the river, countless, what a great honor it is to be able to get a turn in the life of a courtier, maybe now their ancestral tombs are emitting green smoke.
Zhang Jing and Zhao Wenhua have been in the capital for a long time, and when they came out this time, what they saw along the way made the two nostalgic and eye-opening. Especially when I went to the state capitals, the officials of the state capitals greeted and warmly welcomed them. Enjoying the feeling of being flattered and sycophant, the two of them were so excited in their hearts.
It's good to have power, and it's so beautiful to be on top.
Of course, as officials in the capital, especially these two people, they receive very little filial piety from the state capital below every year, and this time they naturally vigorously accept the filial piety of the officials, which can be said to have made a lot of money.
The psychology has been satisfied, and the material has been satisfied, which is nothing more than the pursuit of life. Both of them feel that they have done it, and they can be regarded as successful people.
From the capital to the southeast, a distance of more than 2,000 miles, by land and waterway, about two months later, the two finally entered the realm of Zhejiang.
Speaking of which, although Qin Li is a second-grade general of Pingnan, he is young after all, and Zhao Wenhua hates him to the core. No matter what the two of them say, they also came to the southeast on behalf of the Son of Heaven, so they naturally would not take the initiative to see Qin Li. So as soon as they entered Hangzhou City, neither of them left. Naturally, he had to wait for Qin Li to greet him.
Hearing that Zhao Wenhua came to the southeast, and under the banner of condolences on behalf of the Son of Heaven, Qin Li's two sword eyebrows couldn't help but stand up instantly. Speaking of the grievances and grievances between Qin Li and Zhao Wenhua in the past, Qin Li still remembers. But no matter how you say it, Qin Li has already taught Zhao Wenhua a lesson. In Qin Li's opinion, people like Zhao Wenhua are not his opponents at all. In other words, Qin Li didn't regard Zhao Wenhua as an opponent at all. Traveling on behalf of Emperor Jiajing, in Qin Li's opinion, people like Zhao Wenhua are not worthy at all.
But what made Qin Li puzzled was that Jiajing let people like Zhao Wenhua come.
Hum! Let this official go to see him, wait, who do you think I Qin Li is?
Xu Wei must be Qin Li's military advisor and staff, so he couldn't help but persuade, "Boss, how can you say that Zhang Jing and Zhao Wenhua are also the emperors on their behalf, if we don't take the initiative to greet them, I'm afraid they will be able to grasp what tricks?" ”
"Huh! The officer is not afraid of him. Don't bother. Qin Li said firmly. After speaking, he picked up the tea bowl in front of him and slowly tasted the fragrant tea.
What Qin Li didn't expect was that Qin Li didn't go to Hangzhou, but there was one person who went to Hangzhou in a hurry, which made Qin Li very angry.
