Chapter 728: Success or Failure Turns the Head (Part II)

In the Hangzhou City Post House, several middle-aged men with brocade and jade belts sat around the table, hanging themselves.

Sitting at the top is Wang Xun, the governor of Fujian, Jiang Yi, the political envoy of Zhejiang, on the right, Li Xi, the chief military officer of Fujian, and Guo Cheng, the deputy chief soldier of Zhejiang...... He replaced Lu Keng, who hurriedly went out, and there were a few people watching the battle on the side, either the deputy commander-in-chief, or the political envoy and the envoy...... These leaders and brains on the southeast ground were all summoned by Hu Zongxian, and they held meetings for a month, and they were not allowed to go back.

Why has it dragged on for so long, these people also know in their hearts, although the big man did not speak publicly, but he talked to many people in private, and everyone also tested each other's style, but they were all secretive, and no one refused to show their bottoms.

But everyone can feel that there is clearly an unsettling, even terrifying atmosphere, spreading over the city of Hangzhou, almost driving people crazy.

Even a little wind and grass can make their hearts beat, and just now Lu Bo hurriedly went out, and even hooked everyone's minds, in other words, the buddy was not a horse hanging, but a palpitation. "I heard that the big handsome?" Wang Xun asked Jiang Yi tentatively, "Did you go out of the city last morning?" ”“! Ji: Yes......" Jiang Yi didn't know if he was really confused. Still pretending to be confused and said="There is no faith at all." "When is this coming, and you won't tell us the truth?" Li Xi frowned unhappily and said, "Our brothers and Dashuai were born and died, but they didn't sell their lives to ...... Even if it's sold, you have to let us know how it died, right? ”

He said this explicitly, which made the atmosphere in the room freeze all of a sudden, and Wang Xun shouted in a low voice: "Hugh is nonsense! After reprimanding his subordinates, he turned to Jiang Yi and said, "Old Jiang, Yunhe is like this, you don't have to care." But you can't take us for fools, can you? Do you really think that if we are trapped in the city of Hangzhou, we are blind and deaf, and we don't know anything? Saying that, he snorted and said: "I also want to ask Lao Guo, how can I transfer my subordinates at will, and change the generals of several large armies at once, what is this for?" ”

Guo Cheng smiled honestly: "This kind of military aircraft is important, but it is not my turn to participate." ”

But he thought that it was impossible to pass the pass, the civil and military forces in the house were already angry, and now Hu Zongxian was not in the city, and there was no pressure on him, how could he still control it.

The room was like a fried pot, and they questioned one after another, Jiang Yi and Guo Cheng couldn't resist it, they just pushed it hard and didn't know, and they waited for the big handsome to come back.

At this moment, the door opened, and I saw a small colonel rushing in panting, and he didn't even care about the salute, so he shouted loudly: "Ladies and gentlemen, please go to the governor's yamen to gather!" The room was silent all of a sudden, and everyone looked at the little school, and said in their hearts, "What kind of fairy are you?"

The little colonel also realized his recklessness, and hurriedly added: "It was Liu Zongrong and Tang Zhongcheng who gave the order. I was afraid that they didn't understand, so I said: "Lord Liu, the general soldier of Jiangbei, and Lord Tang, the governor of Su Song." "Hey......" a few martial artists breathed a sigh of relief. He shouted: "Why be so hasty: let them meet at the inn." Wang Xun had an ominous premonition, and asked the little school: "What about you Lu Zongrong?" "I've already followed him to the governor's yamen...... "Xiao De said before leaving, I told Xiao De to pass the word." It seems that this thing is strange......" Jiang Yi said in a low voice: "Why did you go to Fuya?"

"Hmm......" Wang Xun nodded = "Go and see." As he spoke, he commanded in a loud voice="Fetch my official uniform!" The rest of the civil and military officers also went back to change into official uniforms, and called Yu Dayou, who was boxing in the back garden, to ride a horse and sit in a sedan chair, and went to the governor's yamen.

On Chongming Island, heavily guarded, Yao Changzi restrained the generals in the Zhongjun Hall, anxiously waiting for the results of the talks on the mountain.

The lobby was very quiet, only a dozen old men could be heard gasping, there was wine and meat on the table, it was already cold, and no one had the heart to move a chopstick, although it was never announced, but everyone knew that something big would happen today.

At this moment, there was a commotion outside the hall, and Yao Changzi frowned and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Before anyone could answer, two generals, one old and one young, appeared at the door, surrounded by guards.

The generals saw the people coming and hurriedly got up to greet them, because the identities of these two people were amazing. The former is Su Song's deputy commander-in-chief, and the old general Wang Chonggu...... There were originally two Wang Chonggu in the southeast, one Wen and one Wu, and that old Xi'er had already gone to the north to be the governor, and the old general was still serving as Yu Dayou's deputy. He is more senior than Yu Dayou, and many of the generals here were brought out by him, so he is highly respected, and no one dares to disobey him.

Another young and vigorous young general with red lips and white teeth is Yu Dayou's only son, Yu Zhigao! These two people were sent by Yu Dayou to the Jiangnan Shipyard to supervise the construction of new warships, and it is said that they should not come back at this time. But they just showed up at this juncture, apparently not just going home to see.

Yao Changzi got up awkwardly and got out of the way, the old general sat in the right seat without concession, and Yu Zhigao glanced at him contemptuously.

The eldest son sighed secretly and said respectfully: "The adults didn't say hello in advance when they came back, and the last general would pick them up." "Don't dare to work." Wang Chonggu smiled and said, "Didn't you block the sea?" If the old man wasn't familiar with the way, he wouldn't have thought of coming back. "You have misunderstood...... eldest son has already settled down, and he knows that he can't retreat at this time" said neither humbly nor arrogantly: "It is because the marshal and the Qincha met on the island that the island is under martial law."

"Hmph......" Wang Chonggu couldn't accuse him for a while, but Yu Zhigao said with a look of disdain: "You eat things inside and outside, how much do you and my father promote you, but you can't bear to harm the master and trap my father for injustice?" "Major General." The eldest son frowned and said, "I don't know what you're talking about." "You know best what I'm talking about." Yu Zhigao is not a big person, and his eyes are wide and he said: "The words are here, whoever dares to harm the handsome man will step on me first!" The atmosphere in the lobby was tense.

Shen had already regained his composure, and after Hu Zongxian finished laughing, he asked in a low voice, "Since you know that I will do this, why do you want to come again?" "I'm not coming" Hu Zongxian's daylight was still on the blue and yellow sea, as if he was laughing at Shen Zuo, and as if laughing at himself: "How did this play end?" ”

Shen knew what he meant, and said in a low voice: "Brother, I can't help you in this matter" But I know you too well, if you don't do that, maybe you will come up with some tricks, and when the time comes, it will be out of control, and everyone will be in trouble." "Do you also think" Hu Zongxian turned his head and said with a mocking smile: "Did I personally operate the Quzhou miners' troubles and the Jiangxi-Guangdong Sangu rebellion?" "I don't know, and I'd like to believe it's not." Shen looked gloomy and said in a low voice: "But in the position of you and me, can you still act emotionally?" ”

Hu Zongxian stared at Shen for a long time, and finally shook his head and said, "You have changed, you are no longer the stupid boy who burned the account book for me." ”

"That's still the thirty-fourth year of Jiajing" Shen also fell into a thousand emotions, and said: "As I spoke, almost ten years have passed. ”

"yes, ten years." Hu Zongxian said in a low voice: "Why did you know that I was planning you everywhere, but you were willing to give up your life for me; But over the years, I have asked myself like a brother to you, but you can be ruthless in calculating me? ”

"You—I'm not what I was ten years ago." Shen shook his head, looked at Hu Zongxian squarely, and said: "This world is not the world of ten years ago, I could easily go out and survive in death, but now I don't have the courage to do so......" said with a self-deprecating smile; "Maybe it's just getting old." "I'm very satisfied with your answer." Hu Zongxian also smiled and said, "At least it's much better than perfunctory with rhetoric." "I promise you, I'll do my best." Shen said. "Hehe......" Hu Zongxian teased: "The future has two sleeves of golden tears, and the public case has three lives and white bones." You have persuaded me that my heart is dead, will the ashes be resurrected? "My brother is so sharp." Shen smiled and said, "Whether you believe it or not, I will do it." "Hahaha......" Hu Zongxian just laughed, the laughter was high and low, urgent and slow, which made people very uncomfortable to listen to.

After getting off the sedan chair and dismounting, a group of high-ranking civil and military officials arrived in front of the governor's yamen, and saw a strict guard of three steps and one post, five steps and one sentry, and there were several times more guards than usual. However, this did not scare a group of battle-hardened generals, Yu Dayou and Wang Xun led a group of civil and military officers, strutting their heads and entering from the main gate.

But when they arrived at the Yimen, the hearts of all the adults were lifted with a thump. Because they saw four white-booted lieutenants with big hats and belts and black robes, which was the attire of the brocade guards when they were out on duty.

There is a matter of Jinyi Wei involved, and the decision is to pass the number-day.

Those brocade guards didn't say a word, and got out of the way. Suppressing the panic in their hearts, a group of civil and military officers passed through the instrument door and came to the front of the lobby.

The incense case had already been set up in front of the hall, and Liu Xian, Tang Ruji, Wang Bengu and Lu Bo were talking at the foot of the steps. Seeing everyone coming in, Liu Xian hugged his fists and said: "I really can't go to you in such a hurry, but there is a holy decree and a letter from the Qincha majority, please forgive me." "Well said...... what could the crowd say but to forgive him. According to the text, the left and the right, the upper and lower are respectful and humble, and stand in two columns in front of the hall.

"First pass on the message of the great people." Liu Xian cleared his throat and said: "As far as Lin Gong and the southeastern lords Jun Jian: he was suffering from a serious illness at sea, and he was bedridden by the time he reached Chongming, and he was even unable to lift a pen, so he did not arrive in Hangzhou for a long time. However, he had a holy mandate and could not delay the right thing, so he had to entrust Tang Ruji, the governor of Su Song, to announce the decree on his behalf. For many inconveniences, please forgive me for the inconvenience of Lin Gong and Zhu Gong. ”

After everyone listened, they had no choice but to turn to Tang Ruji, but before Tang Ruji could speak, Wang Xun spoke up first: "Don't you have to wait until the handsome man comes back?" Everyone also nodded, obviously thinking the same way, whether things are right or wrong, it is too unkind to draw wages from the bottom of the kettle. That's not ...... "Tang Faxin has already prepared." To the people = "The handsome man has a separate purpose." Let's go ahead with your own. "Everyone has nothing to say now, and then the mushroom has the suspicion of resisting the decree -0

So Wang Xun, Yu Dayou, Lu Keng and others knelt north in turn, and the rest of the officials present also took their places, knelt down in their appropriate positions, shouted long live in unison, and listened to Tang Ruji read the edict. Tang Ruji cleaned his hands in the golden basin, and then stood behind the incense case facing south, opened the yellow seal, and read aloud! ~ "Feng 10 days to carry the emperor's edict said: Kill the enemy to defend the country and strengthen the heart of the courtiers, and speed up IELTS is the imperial court's canon. Gu Zi southeast civil and military, Jin Ge Iron Horse, ten years of humiliation, liver and courage, and finally success, should not be praised. ”

Clearing his throat, Tang Ruji first looked at Wang Xun and said: "Erdu Inspectorate Zuo Yushi and Fujian Jinfu Wang Xun, since he was appointed, he has done his best to recruit soldiers and soldiers, personally brave arrows and stones, loyal to the liver and courage, and is really the first meritorious minister of Fujian and the model of the world's governors. -

Now Jin'er is the left deputy capital of the Imperial History of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, temporarily leading the Fujian affairs, and will be appointed after the court pushes. Receive a bounty of 100 taels and 1,000 taels of silver, and the two sons of Yin are Wen Linlang, what do you want for Xizhi's fate? You can only fulfill your duties. Loyal to the country. Fang lived up to the grace of his father. It can add glory to your family for eternity. Chin this. The first month of the forty-third year of Jiajing in the Ming Dynasty. Wang Xun hurriedly kowtowed and thanked him, the official was promoted to two levels, and the two sons of Yin were seven grades, which was the best reward he could think of.

Next are the rest of the civil officials, according to the size of the contribution, the official is promoted by one or two levels, and the shadow is one or two; Then there are Yu Dayou and other military generals, all of whom have been added to the rank of knight, the hereditary official position has been promoted, and the number of shadows has also increased, which is really happy.

Passing on the edict is also a hard work, chattering for so long, Tang Ruji is tired and his mouth is dry, and he still said forcefully: "Lord Qincha asked me to tell you that the new governor and chief military officer in the future will definitely give priority to choosing from among us." ”

The opinions that have been discussed for a long time have finally been officially confirmed, and everyone can't help but feel hot in their hearts. Ben's somewhat complacent face immediately turned into an unconcealable desire, and his mind immediately became, how to actively fight for it...... In the holy decree, the civil and military forces were rewarded, but the grade was only improved, but the real power did not change. However, everyone does not blame the imperial court, because of a radish and a pit, it is really difficult for them to move their official positions upward. But now that a number of governors have been added, as well as the corresponding commanders-in-chief, they have been given the opportunity to go further in the corresponding grades of their official positions, but they have stepped out of the general phase, how can everyone not be excited?

But it was in this warm and sweet atmosphere that a discordant voice rang out: "With these governors, where will the marshal be placed?" ”

Immediately there was silence, Liu Yu and Tang Ruji looked at each other with a little annoyance, but saw that it was not Lu Keng, Jiang Yi, or Guo Cheng who spoke, but Yu Dayou, who had been framed and imprisoned by Hu Zongxian and should be with them. "But then again." Hu Zongxian stopped laughing and wanted to get his wine jar, but found that it had been shattered on the ground.

Shen just! $ handed it over, Hu Zongxian looked at him, still took it, and shook it and said, "I saw that you drank for a long time, but it was almost full." Shen was a little embarrassed and said, "Isn't there something in my heart, don't you want to drink more?" ”

"I also have something on my mind, why do I want to drink more?" Hu Zongxian drank bitterly on his back, the wine soaked into his neck and splashed his clothes before he put down the jar, wiped his mouth with his sleeve and said: "Don't you want to know, why do I know that there are tigers in the mountains and prefer to go to the tiger mountains?" "If you don't have three, two, three, how dare you go to Liangshan?" Shen said softly. "Well said, well said." Hu Zongxian smiled: "Do you believe it or not, I can get out of the way." "I believe it." Shen nodded and said. "Why?" This time it was Hu Zongxian's turn to be stunned. "Because you're their handsome." Shen said lightly: "No soldier in the southeast dares to use force against you. ”

"Hehe, Dashuai, haha, what a majestic Hu Dashuai......" Hu Zongxian laughed nervously again, and then suppressed his smile and said: "This is a reason, but I still have a card You want to know." "Dashuai." Shen sighed heavily: "The matter has come to this, why bother to break the net?" Even if you don't think about yourself, you should think about the soldiers who follow you loyally......

Hu Zongxian was stunned for a moment, looked at Shen for a long time, and gradually deflated: "It turns out that the person who knows himself best will never be himself. As if he had changed his mind, he sat back in front of his seat and said, "How can you just drink wine and have no food?" ”

Shen secretly breathed a sigh of relief, only then did he realize that his back was already soaked with sweat, and said with a smile: "Yes, yes, serve the food." ”

The two guards who were struggling outside finally put down their weapons, and said in a loud voice: "Hurry up and serve the food!" "The delicacies that have been prepared long ago have been passed down like water; When the news reached the barracks, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, Yu Zhigao didn't believe it, and rushed up the mountain, seeing that Hu Zongxian had already drunk with Shen and Shen Yu, and he was at a loss for the second monk.

was about to speak, but Hu Zongxian grabbed his hand, pulled him to his seat, and said with a smile: "Come on, Xiao Yu'er, drink with your uncles." ”

At the last dusk, Hu Zongxian, who was very drunk, was helped by Yu Zhigao, who was still confused, and went down the mountain crookedly, and everyone heard that Hu Zongxian sang:

Dream around Shenzhou Road. The autumn wind, the camp draws the corner, and the Forbidden City leaves the millet. The bottom matter Kunlun is the mainstay, and the yellow flow of the nine places is indiscriminate? Gather thousands of villages and foxes. Providence is always difficult to ask, and it is easy to get old and sad to complain! Who will accompany me, dancing in the wild? ”

I'm sorry, yesterday's chapter, continue to write today......
