Chapter 498: Cheng Yue's hard work
Cheng Yue was stunned, helped Mrs. Gu up with his own hands, and said with a smile: "When did I say I wouldn't give them a chance?" What I mean by this is that since the order of the Prime Minister's Mansion arrived a few days late, the civil and military forces of Guangdong can be flexibly controlled. I'm going to punish the stubborn and unrelenting people, not to beat everyone to the ground indiscriminately, so why bother? ”
Everyone couldn't help but be stunned when they heard this. Mrs. Gu stammered, "Big ...... What does the governor mean by that you can open the net? ”
Cheng Yue said puzzledly: "What kind of net is this?" Isn't the order four days late? Of course, it starts from the day the order arrives. Wouldn't it be fair? ”
When everyone heard this, they blamed themselves, remorse, and were relieved, beating their chests one by one, laughing and laughing.
Mrs. Gu still couldn't believe it, and said, "It's so simple? ”
Cheng Yue spread his hands and said with a smile: "It's a very simple thing, what's so difficult?" ”
Mrs. Gu had mixed feelings in her heart for a moment, and a group of them racked their brains in Guangzhou for a long time to discuss, it turned out that they were all wasted work, and most of them were very open-minded, and they didn't care about those small sections at all. Fortunately, this trip is not in vain, she can take refuge in Rou Niang, and Guangdong civil and military can take the opportunity to meet the governor of Dadu, otherwise they will really become a laughing stock.
Cheng Yue straightened his face again and said, "Whether it's Xu Zhiliang or you, are you all paste?" If it was really just for such a trivial matter, a large group of people came to Lin'an to intercede with me, everyone would have to suffer first! Outrageous! ”
From Ling Zhen onwards, everyone was ashamed and embarrassed, remembering the heated discussion in Guangzhou. It's so funny. It's boring!
Cheng Yue waved his hand and said, "Okay." Remember, it's just one time, not the next. You guys are just in time, Suzhou is training officials from all over the country, Lord Ling, you can go for a while. ”
Ling Zhen hurriedly took the order and said, "Yes." ”
Cheng Yue said to Zhang Zhensun again: "Zhang Zhuangyuan, this time Guangzhou is safe and sound, thanks to you, but as soon as I think of you, you abandoned your official position in order to go home to accompany your parents." Regardless of the safety of the country, I will not fight anywhere when I am angry, you should go back and continue to accompany your parents, lest once I use you, you will escape from the battle again, and I will have to send someone to kill you, which is very troublesome. ”
Zhang Zhensun suddenly felt ashamed and speechless. No one in Guangdong dared to defend him, and the atmosphere was dull for a while.
Cheng Yue secretly gave Mrs. Song a look, and Mrs. Song smiled. Said: "The Metropolitan Governor may be wrong to blame Lord Zhang. ”
Cheng Yue raised his eyebrows and said, "Oh? How so? ”
Mrs. Song said: "Lord Zhang is the champion. Because of his uprightness, he didn't like it for Jia, deliberately degraded, and was a dignified champion, but he was sent out from the central government to make a six-grade general judgment in the small Wuzhou, and no one in the court complained about him. Master Zhang has the knowledge of helping the world and the spirit of Haoran, how can he stand such a cold reception? Since the court abandoned it first, what is wrong with Lord Zhang going home to serve his parents? The so-called 'the king treats me as a countryman, and I should repay him as a countryman!' You treat me as a passerby, and I repay you as a passerby! At that time, the Great Song Dynasty had accumulated a lot of difficulties, and Lord Zhang, as a general judge, could only call in vain, and abandon the official and not do it, not because he was disheartened, not because he was afraid of the enemy like a tiger! Lord Zhang came from thousands of miles away this time, and he wanted to show his strength under the Metropolitan Governor's door and serve the Metropolitan Governor loyally, if the Metropolitan Governor gave up such a rare talent as Lord Zhang because of a blind eye, wouldn't it be a pity? Why didn't the Metropolitan Governor change his course and give Lord Zhang a chance? The Metropolitan Governor is at the time of employing people, and Master Zhang is the talent that the Metropolitan Governor needs. ”
After the words were spoken, everyone praised in their hearts! What a far-sighted middle school husband!
Zhang Zhensun gratefully bowed deeply to Mrs. Song and said, "Thank you Mrs. Song for speaking up for the lower officials!" The lower officials are ashamed and dare not be. ”
Cheng Yue frowned and looked Zhang Zhensun up and down, and said, "Is what Mrs. Song said right?" ”
Zhang Zhen Sun Chang said: "Won my heart." ”
Cheng Yue pondered for a moment and said, "Okay, I'll give you a chance, you can also go to Suzhou with Master Ling, I will make my own arrangements after I finish my studies." ”
Zhang Zhensun stepped forward and said, "Yes, I will never live up to the high expectations of the metropolitan governor." ”
Cheng Yue nodded and asked him to go back and sit down.
Huang Jun said: "The Governor of Dadu, the last general and the other three only brought 2,000 men and horses this time, but they are all the elite of the Destroyer Army, and they are willing to serve the Governor of Dadu." ”
Xie Xian hurriedly said: "Dadu Governor, the last general will use 70% of the strength of the Guangdong Naval Army, a total of more than 3,500 ships, including more than 1,700 warships, and the main force of 26,000 naval forces, have arrived in Hangzhou Bay for the deployment of the Dadu Governor. ”
When Cheng Yue heard this, his face finally softened, and he said, "Huang Jun, Ma Fa, Chen Shi, Liang Xiongfei, your two thousand men and horses will immediately train with our Marine Corps from tomorrow." The commander of the Marine Corps is Zhang Shijie, there are few of you, so you will first form an independent regiment under Du Hu. All equipment has been updated, and training requirements have to be the same. I have a word in the first place, who can't keep up with my training and give up in the middle of the training, immediately drive out of the barracks, I don't want to be a bad seed! ”
Huang Jun, Ma Fa, and Liang Xiongfei were overjoyed, Chen Shi was trembling, and the four of them stepped forward together, bowed down and said, "Yes!" The subordinates are under the orders of the Metropolitan Governor! ”
Cheng Yue said to Xie Xian: "Your navy came just in time, the more ships in the Eastern Expedition to Japan, the better, I have gathered tens of thousands of ships, you can join in." Tomorrow you will return to Hangzhou Bay, under the command of Navy Commander Liu Shun, and form an army of your own and train strictly. You have to keep in mind my 'Eight Great Slashes', if you commit any of them, you will die or live! ”
Xie Xian couldn't help but shudder, others said that he could not take this seriously, who could easily move the commander of the 30,000 water army? But the Governor is not joking when he says this, he says that if he wants to kill, he will definitely kill!
Xie Xian trembled and replied, "Yes!" The last general should fight desperately to repay the favor of the governor of the capital. ”
Cheng Yue nodded slightly, waved his hand, and said, "Remember my words and go back to your seat." ”
Xie Xian silently returned to his seat.
Seeing the solemn atmosphere, Mrs. Gu said with a smile: "Governor Dadu, when the concubine went north, I saw that the cement road south of Lin'an had been completed for hundreds of miles, and there were also many places in Guangdong where lines were being drawn, and the carriage was running on it, fast and steady, saving at least half of the time." ”
There seemed to be a spark in Cheng Yue's eyes, and he said, "Well, Zhao Liangchun and Xu Daolong did a good job and didn't disappoint me." ”
Ling Zhen said: "Metropolitan Governor, after Lord Zhao came to Guangzhou, more than a dozen cement factories were built along the road, although the roads of the imperial court have not yet started, but there are many people in Guangdong who use cement to build houses and pave roads, and the money earned by the cement factory can be used to subsidize the cost of repairing roads, and Lord Zhao can be called a capable official." ”
Cheng Yue said: "These two people are not mediocre, let's see how they do in the future." ”
Zhang Zhensun said: "For more than a year, Master Lu Shi Meng Lu has been operating well in Guangxi, and I heard that more than 100,000 troops have been gathered, countless Zhao'an mountain bandits have been exterminated, and hundreds of miles of roads in Guangxi have been built, and merchants have praised each other. The governor of the capital, the two Guangzhous are safe, and the southern expedition is expected. ”
Cheng Yue sighed and said, "Yes, the difficulty of building roads in Guangxi is far higher than that of other places, Lu Shimeng is really desperate, and it is not in vain that I gave him a chance." ”
Zhang Zhensun praised: "Most of the governors employ people, eclectic, and do not doubt the use of people, so they can get the service of everyone." ”
Cheng Yue smiled faintly and said, "It's not easy for you adults to come from afar, I will wash the dust for you adults today, please don't shirk." ”
Everyone said in unison: "It's an honor to have the governor of Lao." ”
Cheng Yue got up and said, "Please." ”
"Governor, please."
From the study to the flower hall, there is a way to go. Zhang Zhensun found an opportunity, approached Mrs. Song, and said in a low voice: "Thank you, Mrs. for maintaining the lower officials, the lower officials are grateful, and they will be rewarded later." ”
Mrs. Song's beautiful eyes were longing, and she said with a smile: "Lord Zhang really thinks that this is what the concubine herself said? ”
Zhang Zhensun was stunned and said, "Could it be that someone else asked Mrs. to defend the lower official?" Which adult cares so much about the lower officials? ”
Mrs. Song looked up at Cheng Yue in front of her, her eyes were full of reverence and admiration, and she smiled softly: "Every word that the concubine said was said by the governor of the capital in private. Lord Zhang, the Metropolitan Governor can't bear the sin of fear of the enemy in the past, so he used the mouth of the concubine to wash away this crime for Lord Zhang, so that Lord Zhang can not be ridiculed by the world and be able to show his talents again. The hard work of the Metropolitan Governor, Lord Zhang must remember and not let it down. ”
Zhang Zhensun was like five thunderbolts in a flash, and he was so grateful that he couldn't help but hold back the tears that almost burst out of his eyes, and his lips trembled and choked: "Please tell the Metropolitan Governor that Dingqing should serve wholeheartedly in this life and live up to the grace of the Metropolitan Governor." ”
Mrs. Song said softly: "He is a person, he never asks others to repay, if Lord Zhang doesn't ask, he won't let me say it." The Metropolitan Governor praised Lord Zhang many times in front of us, saying that Lord Zhang and Lord Ling are both pillars of talent and will be reused in the future. Most of the governors were very happy when you came to Lin'an this time, and he didn't even go to the saint to ask him to eat. In fact, the Suzhou side has been arranged for a long time, and several adults are waiting for you. The Metropolitan Governor shoulders the world, the responsibility is very heavy, there are countless things to do, you have to share more for him, he is not an iron man, there are times when he is tired, these days he sleeps less than three hours a day, sometimes after reviewing the recital, lying on the table directly asleep, the bed is next to it is too late. Madame was so distressed that she lost her temper with the various ministers who came to send her a fold a few days ago. But there is no way, now that the law has just begun, new coins will be issued in a few days, and there are many things inside and outside the government and the opposition that need to be decided by the metropolitan governor. The Metropolitan Governor is very strict with himself, no matter how busy he is, he must not make a mistake, and many things must be personally asked. Alas, he receives you today, and tomorrow he goes out to play with Mrs. Gu, and he doesn't know how much sleep time he has to sacrifice, which is really unbearable. (To be continued......)
