Chapter 603: Entering the Palace



How could Yang Sichang, who was beside Emperor Chongzhen, not see Hong Chengchou's expression, and he could even guess what Hong Hengjiu was thinking at this time.

After so many years of training in the political arena, I don't know how many struggles he has experienced, but he has already experienced and practiced calm.

Standing beside the emperor, Yang Sichang was calm and relaxed, looking like he had nothing to do with himself.

He also knew that Sun Yuan, or Liu and Sun, were really beautiful today. The performance of the Ningxiang army also shocked him, such a strong army, I am afraid that only the elite of Xu Da, the general who swept Mongolia when the Ming Dynasty opened the country, can compare with it! This Sun Yuan, and Lu Xiangsheng behind him are really amazing, so it's better to be some.

For Liu Yuliang, as a member of the cabinet, Yang Sichang really knows too well, that is, he is faint and decrepit. When he had made such achievements in Jinan before, Yang Sichang was still a little worried that his position in the cabinet would be challenged. After Liu Ge returned to Beijing, Yang Sichang had a deep talk with him. Only then was he stunned to find that this old Liu knew nothing about military affairs. As for how the Ningxiang Army defeated the right wing army of Jiannu and how the battle was deployed, it is impossible to say why.

It's all made into decorations as a commander, and it really makes people laugh and cry.

This made Yang Sichang breathe a sigh of relief, he didn't see him for three days, Liu Yuliang was still the original Wuxia Ameng, it seems that this battle was arranged by Sun Yuan from beginning to end.

Where did Lu Jiandou find Sun Yuan, a fierce general, and this ability to recognize and employ people alone is so admirable that people are so impressed.

You don't need to ask, you can know that Hong Chengchou is probably worried about his position as the governor of Jiliao, right?

As a politician, Hong Chengchou's future has nothing to do with Yang Sichang, and there is no political alliance between the two. What Yang Sichang is now thinking about is what variables the future military deployment of the Ming Dynasty in the north will be

His own power has penetrated deep into Xuanzhen, and he also has a certain influence in the Guanning army. Recently, Liu Yuliang has been recommended again, and Sun Yuan has been promoted to be the governor of Xuanda, which is a bit of a headache. Liu Yuliang is as ignorant of world affairs as the civil officials of the Ming Dynasty, but the means of fighting for power and profit make it extremely smooth.

The problem is that now Liu Gelao's prestige in the government and the opposition has been like that of the Japanese side after this battle, and there is a vague call for him to take charge of the military department to preside over the Chinese and foreign military, and he has also vaguely challenged his authority Yang Sichang.

If the Ningxiang army goes out of the town of Xuanfu, it is not up to him Liu Yuliang to have the final say in the defense of western Beijing, and his power, the cabinet member in charge of the military department, will also be greatly restricted.

Politics is like a boat sailing against the current, you can only keep going in, and you can't back down a single step. If Sun Yuan is allowed to successfully enter the Xuanfu army, it is inevitable that some people will think that his status in the emperor's eyes has declined. Then, more people and more forces will fall to Liu Yuliang.

As soon as the Xuanfu side retreated, Liu Yuliang would extend his hand to the domestic thieves, reach out to the army used by Fangbei, and then continue to weaken his Yang Sichang's strength.

Yang Sichang admired Liu Yuliang a little in his heart: "Lao Liu directly chose Xuanda Town in my backyard to do it, and knocked in Sun Yuan's nail, which is really beautiful!" ”

Even Xuanda, who has been running for a long time, was arrested by Liu Yuliang, what will others think, what will the governors, governors, and commanders under a certain command think? That's what people's hearts are floating!

What should be the next move, how can Sun Yuan and the Ningxiang army be sent away?

Yang Sichang's heart churned with ripples, but his face became more and more calm.

……

All kinds of people on Chengtian Gate have all kinds of thoughts, and Sun Yuan, who is below, naturally has no way of knowing, and he has no time to think.

After the captured Jiannu military flag was presented to the king, the military parade was also over.

I don't know if I have moved Emperor Chongzhen with this arrangement today, and I may not have a sense of anxiety in my heart, but if I can't satisfy the emperor even like this, then it's a strange thing?

Sun Yuan arched his hand upstairs, then turned around and walked towards the east with sonorous steps, not looking back.

Behind him, except for the neat footsteps of the soldiers, no other sound could be heard, and the entire Beijing Chengdu was shocked by this unparalleled military force

According to the arrangement of the Ministry of Rites, after passing through the Chengtian Gate, the troops to be read should go to the square of the Yulu Rice Warehouse, which is five miles away from the Chengtian Gate, to gather and rest, and wait for the emperor's decree.

As soon as they passed the Chengtian Gate, the Ningxiang Army no longer kicked the right steps, and their steps became brisk, and the whole team was completely relaxed.

Everyone's tense faces also relaxed, and next to Sun Yuan, Wen Laosan, as an infantry general, naturally did not ride a horse. He complained in a low voice: "General, this is a pot of tea time as soon as you walk, and the soles of your feet are numb." If you walk another two or three miles, you must be swollen. ”

Indeed, although the training of the Ningxiang Army is weekdays, the longest of this kind of kicking is only a few hundred steps, and then it is changed to other events and rotated. After all, it's just too tiring. Also, you have to slap your foot down hard when you kick the right step. If you walk like this today, it will be three miles away, and the hemp legs of the iron-beaten man will not be able to bear it.

Sun Yuan smiled lowly and spit out: "Third brother, it's just a matter of walking a few miles, as for complaining about the bitterness?" What is our Ningxiang Army, that is the Iron Army, if you say this kind of thing, aren't you afraid of the jokes of the brothers in Paoze, donkey, what do you say? ”

Qiang Donkey and Wen Laosan have always liked to raise the bar, and generally speaking, he will not let go of this opportunity to ridicule his opponent. Strange to say, he didn't squeak today.

Wen Laosan said: "Our Ningxiang Army is naturally the first army in the world, and I am not afraid of being tired or afraid of pain, but I really feel sorry for the shoes under my feet." Walking a few miles like this, even the sturdy shoes can't be so bad. ”

Sun Yuan: "It's just a pair of shoes, see you stingy like this?" The third child, you raise so many wives and give birth to so many dolls, and life is indeed hard. Otherwise, send a few of your concubines away when you get home. If you want to be rich, have fewer children and grow more grains. ”

Wen Laosan was shocked: "It's not possible, although the concubine is just the clothes on her body, it's a big deal to change it." But after all, people gave birth to dolls for me, and I sent them away like this, isn't it too ruthless? In the future, when the dolls grow up and ask me about my mother, what should I say to them? ”

Sun Yuan smiled: "Just kidding, I can't do this kind of thing of breaking up people's flesh and blood." He was very satisfied with his performance at the parade just now. I was in a good mood, and I couldn't help but laugh with my subordinates.

The others couldn't help but chuckle too.

There is a small square in front of the rice warehouse, where there are already more than a dozen officials of the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of War

。 If the six towns and the Qin army both came, it would indeed be a little crowded. But only the 5,000 men and horses of the Ningxiang Army seemed very empty.

Not long after arriving at the ground, an old eunuch came running over with a few retinues, saying that His Majesty the Emperor had come down by grace.

According to reports, Sun Yuan was frightened that this old eunuch who came to announce the decree turned out to be Wang Chengen, the most trusted person of Emperor Chongzhen. This person's character is very good, and Sun Yuan also has a good impression of him, so he hurriedly stepped forward to salute: "The last general, Sun Yuan, has seen the prince." ”

Wang Chengen helped Sun Yuan up and didn't let him bow down, and said with a smile: "What is the last general, General Sun is now the second rank of the ruling Jinwu, if you really talk about the grade, it is much higher than our family." ”

As he spoke, he looked Sun Yuan up and down, full of appreciation: "Before I met General Sun, our family imagined what kind of person Sun Taichu was who beheaded the slave chief Yue Tuo and defeated the right wing army of Jiannu. Maybe it's really eight feet tall, with a big mouth of blood, and a majestic face, like the four heavenly kings in the temple. When I saw it today, I was like a scholar, General Sun, General Sun, you disappointed our family! But that's okay, Li Yaoshi and Xu Shiji in the Tang Dynasty swept Liuhe with Tang Taizong, and they were not also white-faced scholars. ”

Wang Chengen rarely said such a joke, and the few little eunuchs who followed him wanted to laugh but didn't dare, and they couldn't bear it.

was compared by Wang Chengen to Li Jing and Xu Maogong, Sun Yuan was also a little embarrassed, but there was a big stone in his heart: it seems that Ning Xiangjun's performance today has really entered the emperor's eyes...... This is also normal, modern military columns, if even the ancients can't shake it, I, a traverser, don't have to mix. Wang Chengen's status is very high, and he is responsible for the daily life of Emperor Chongzhen, and his words and deeds represent the emperor's attitude. Isn't that the fact that he was able to play such a joke with me proves that?

Sun Yuan deliberately pretended to be embarrassed: "My father-in-law praised falsely, Sun Yuan was panicked, panicked!" ”

Wang Chengen smiled: "General Sun doesn't need to be modest, your merits are in the eyes of the Lord and the court, but they are all in mind." ”

"Thanks to Your Majesty's kindness, this is why the officers and men of our army have used their lives."

"Well said, it's really the master of the tiger!" Wang Chengen looked at the neatly arranged soldiers of the Ningxiang Army and nodded with satisfaction: "Your Majesty has an order." ”

Sun Yuan: "Please declare the decree of the father-in-law." ”

At that moment, Wang Chengen unfolded the holy decree and read it aloud: "...... The victorious sergeants who received the reading were rewarded with one tael of silver, one bottle of wine, and ten catties of rice, and the court of meritorious soldiers was rewarded with another promotion......"

Hearing him talk about the substantive things, the whole Ningxiang army was overjoyed, and shouted in unison: "Long live, long live, long live."

! ”

After announcing his will, Wang Chengen whispered to Sun Yuan and said: "For this celebration, the imperial court has allocated tens of thousands of taels. But today, since there are only you Ningxiang Army, then the rewards for the soldiers and horses in the other towns will not be distributed, and you can also save some for the Long Live Lord. ”

The emperors of the Ming Dynasty were all famous misers, and seeing that this old eunuch was deliberately trying to save money from Chongzhen, Sun Yuan couldn't cry or laugh: "My father-in-law is right." ”

And as he spoke, he stretched out his hand to receive the decree.

Wang Chengren said: "Don't be busy, there are still words!" ”

As soon as Sun Yuan flicked his sleeves, he was about to kneel: "Ministers Sun Yuan listens to the hadith......"

"Ahem, don't kneel, it's just a word." Wang Chengen pulled him and said with a smile: "Your Majesty said that his old man is now about to participate in the ceremony of offering prisoners to the Taimiao, and asked you to go to Xiyuan first, saying that he will give you a royal banquet later, you first change into clean clothes, and I will ask someone to lead you over to wait." ”

Hearing Wang Chengen say that he would let himself enter the palace, Sun Yuan's face was in high spirits, and he secretly shouted: There is!

His arrangement was really not in vain, God is pitiful, and he can finally see the emperor.

He nodded immediately: "Yes, Sun Yuan is the commander." ”

When Wang Chengen left, several generals in the Ningxiang army hurriedly surrounded him and asked in unison: "General, what did this father-in-law say just now?" ”

Sun Yuan: "Huang You, Fei Hong." ”

The two hurriedly said, "Yes." ”

Sun Yuan: "Fei Hong, first pull the army back to the barracks and station it." ”

Fayhon: "Yes. ”

Sun Yuan: "Huang You, you and Xiao Yu Xiaofang will go to Liu Ge's old minister's mansion first, and my mother and wife live there." You go and tell them that Sun Yuan will probably be late today before he can go back, because His Majesty has passed down a message ordering me to enter the palace, and he also said that he will give a banquet. ”
