Chapter 264: The Eve
After all, the Great Song Observation Weekly is too niche. 1——
It seems that with the exception of a small number of people who will pay attention to it, its influence is even greater than that of the weekly commentary run by the Peacemakers.
To tell the truth, if you look at the style alone, the people of the peace faction are far higher than the main battle faction.
Just looking at the review weekly, from time to time there are some popular Xiaoling articles, it is enough to see some clues.
Wind and snow, talented and beautiful, will always be people's favorite material.
In this regard, the Great Song Observation Weekly clearly captures people's preferences, and its influence is far greater than that of the Great Song Observation Weekly.
It's just that the peace faction counterattacked, and the reprinting and reprinting of the Great Song Times Weekly made it die down.
The influence of Time Magazine can also be seen......
"Xiao Yi, I'm in a hurry, I'm still in a hurry!"
On December 28, the seventh year of Xuanhe, that is, on the third day of the publication of the article pleading for the killing of the five thieves, Zhu Meng said that he came to Yuyin's house early in the morning, and shook his head again and again as soon as he entered the door, and his words expressed a strong sense of dissatisfaction.
"Today, the Taishang Dao monarch is in the Zen position, and the official family has only been on the throne for a few days.
This is just an opportunity to amnesty the world and appease people's hearts, Xiao Yi, this article of yours is only afraid that it will make the contradiction more intense. ”
Obviously, Zhu Meng said that he didn't agree with the killing of the five thieves.
It's not that you can't kill, it's that the timing is bad.
Yu Yin shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Does San Lang think I want to do this?" Li Boji didn't consult with me at all...... Of course, he couldn't have consulted with me. That article was published. I didn't want to reprint it, but this ......"
Yu Yin said and sighed softly.
Zhu Meng said that he did not continue to investigate, but also sighed lightly, and sat down beside Yu Yin.
"Saburo ......"
"Don't say anything more!" Zhu Meng said: "Mr. Yanshan's last words, ask me to help you.
I also know that Xiao Yi, you are not the kind of person who sells for glory. Although he was born in the market, everything he did was worried about the court.
I designed you to be your master.
Now that I'm here. I will do my best to help. Besides, my father has persuaded me to help you several times, but I don't have a chance...... Ugly words are said in front. I can do it for you, one hundred and twenty in a month, but I can't do a penny. Also, I can give you advice, but if you don't want to adopt it, I'll leave, and I hope you won't stand in the way. ”
Zhu Meng said the opening words, which made Yu Yin couldn't help laughing.
"San Lang rest assured, since it was my uncle who recommended you to me, I will believe you.
As for the strategy. You and I can seek common ground while reserving differences, and I will not be suspicious of you because you have hurt me...... In the past few days, I am afraid that I will not be able to go to Moutuogang. Now there is only one Shaoyang in the military village, and I am worried that he is too hardworking. So I asked San Lang to go to the military village to help me watch the ...... As soon as my uncle was buried. I returned to the military village to preside. ”
Zhu Meng said that he heard it and nodded in agreement.
However, he did not leave, but changed his words, "Xiao Yi, do you think the Yellow River moat can stop the thieves?" ”
"This ......"
Yu Yin hesitated. Shaking his head lightly, he said: "I think that with the Yellow River moat, I am afraid that I will not be able to stop the thieves." ”
"Well, I think so too."
Zhu Meng said a pause and stood up, "So I thought that if Xiao Yi stayed in Mu Huogang, I was afraid that it would be difficult to use his fists."
Only by stubbornly guarding the two places of sour jujube can we stop the pace of the thief...... There is a Huazhou regiment training in Huazhou to make Cao Rong guard, and it is no big problem to come. But in terms of sour dates, if you neglect your military preparations, you are afraid that you will not be able to stop the thieves. Xiao Yi wants to establish a meritorious career, why not ask Li Gong for an order to guard the sour dates? The military attache of the front division of the palace from the sixth grade, how can he be a ruler in the local area. ”
Yu Yin's eyes lit up when he heard this.
Do you guard sour dates?
His previous thinking had been limited to Kaifeng, and he had never thought about guarding sour dates. ..., and now Zhu Meng said something, but it made Yu Yin suddenly enlightened...... Outside the city of Kaifeng, there is no danger to defend. Instead of staying in Kaifeng, it is better to guard the sour dates. And one more important thing is that if you stay in Kaifeng, you have to have too many elbows, but if you get to the sour date, how can you also be a military commander, and you can do things more easily.
"Li Gong, can you agree?"
Zhu Meng said and smiled slightly, "As long as Xiao Yi can give up his little family, why not?"
Now Li Gong is also worried about the sour jujube guard, if Xiao Yi can volunteer, he can't say that he can be promoted to the next level, and it will not be a problem to be a commander. If you don't talk openly with Li, I'll talk to Li Gong, what do you think? ”
Zhu Meng said that he was also a member of the main battle faction, and he had a good relationship with Li Gang and others.
If he is willing to speak, he will be six or seven percent sure of this...... Yu Yin thought about it and agreed immediately.
Zhu Meng said that he was gone!
But Yuyin looked very excited.
The horizon is still too narrow, too narrow!
This Zhu Meng said that it was really different, and he saw the key to this war at a glance.
As long as the enemy can be held back on the north bank of the Yellow River, it will not take too long, a month...... It was enough for the Jurchens to retreat without a fight.
I didn't see this before, even Chen Dong, and I didn't find it.
The staff introduced by my uncle is indeed powerful. If you can get his sincere help, it will not be too difficult to achieve a career.
Here, Yu Yin, who was in a somewhat depressed mood before, suddenly became much more cheerful...... Transferred from the front of the palace, the sour dates were put outside.
It doesn't sound too difficult, but it's a bit of a hassle to operate.
The reason is simple...... The sour jujube regimental training envoy is under the jurisdiction of the Privy Council, and the Mu Huogang military village is under the command of the front secretary of the palace. If Yu Yin wants to go to Sour Zao, he must first transfer out of the front division of the palace, put the roster into the military department, and then submit it to the Privy Council. It is then approved by the Privy Council and appointed through the Ministry of War. This trip down the formalities, it is really a bit cumbersome.
can be cumbersome and cumbersome, and Yuyin must also do it.
Fortunately, the relationship between him and the Taiwei Mansion is not too bad. On this day, Yu Yin sent off the visitors, and seeing that it was getting late, he explained to Yan Nu and others, and went straight to the Taiwei Mansion.
Before leaving the door, Yan Nu called Yu Yin.
"Brother Xiao Yi goes early and returns early, and he still needs to keep the New Year tonight, but Brother Xiao Yi is at home."
Keeping the New Year?
Yu Yin suddenly understood. Today is indeed Chinese New Year's Eve!
Before I knew it, it was the last day of the seventh year of Xuanhe, and tonight had passed. It was the first year of Jingkang.
My heart trembled suddenly...... Jingkang, Jingkang! In a few hours, we will enter the year of Jingkang...... Since the rebirth. These two words became Yu Yin's lingering nightmare. After two years of ups and downs, we still have to face history after all.
Looking at Yan Nu who was holding Yuru in his arms, Yu Yin felt a wave of warmth in his heart.
He suddenly stepped forward and hugged Yan Nu in his arms, "Sister Jiu'er, how can I keep your mother and daughter safe." ”
Yan Nu was stunned for a moment, a little bit didn't quite understand how Yu Yin suddenly spit out such a sentence. But in my heart, I am still very happy, and the pretty pink is smiling brightly. He snorted softly, "How can these many people say these shameless words?" Hurry up, early, don't leave everyone waiting here. ”
Yu Yin smiled. took the dark gold and went out.
"Brother Xiaoyi, is this going out?"
Huo Jian walked out of a private house, dressed in new clothes, and saluted Yu Yin with a smile.
Yang Jinlian is really good at doing things...... In just a few days, five private houses were bought. But it only took more than 400 yuan. In other words, each set of houses is only about 80 guan, far less than the 100 guan that Yu Yin said at the beginning.
Coupled with Xiao Kun's help, Yu Yin quickly got the property and settled down the knife hand who came over the bridge. ..., the Bianqiao Slaughterhouse, now closed.
The yard was leased to Liu Qing's family to stock up on grain.
It was also Liu Qing's family that there was so much food that he had to rent the entire slaughterhouse. Not only that, but he also invited nearly 100 swordsmen in the slaughterhouse to be guards, and after this calculation, Yuyin made a lot of money from Liu Qing. 1,000 kan a month, plus 3,000 kan protection money...... made Yuyin sigh in private, Liu Daguan is really wealthy.
The 4,000 yuan, he received it with peace of mind!
What's more important is that with these grains and grasses, Yuyin doesn't have to worry about not having enough food at home.
Is it possible to starve to death while guarding the grain depot?
"Are the brothers used to living there?"
Yu Yin also smiled and greeted Huo Jian.
"Where did my brother speak, when did this group of rammed goods live so comfortably...... It's just that my brother will break the bank, and if he spoils them in the future, he won't be able to endure hardship. ”
Yu Yin waved his hand, "Da Lang said very much, since he is his own brother, how can he make everyone happy."
Later, I will go to Fengle Lou to get wine, and by the way, I will go to Sangjia Wazi to find a few cooks to cook. Tonight is the New Year's Celebration, and it can't be too shabby...... By the way, don't forget to send some to the brothers in the slaughterhouse, that is, to stay in the slaughterhouse, and also to be your own brothers. ”
In a word, it immediately made those knife hands cheer.
Yu Yin took the opportunity to lean in, took out two ingots of silver from his arms, and put them in Huo Jian's hands.
"Let Jiulang work harder, and let me stare at Fengle Lou and Qianjin Yixiao Lou to see what happens tonight."
Jiulang, whose real name is Huang Wentao, is Huang Xiaoqi's younger brother.
This guy is the head snake of Kaifeng, who is idle on weekdays and does not do his job.
But he has a skill, which is to inquire about ...... There are dozens of idlers under his hands to help him, so he wanders around Kaifeng City, and he can know what is going on for the first time. Before, Yuyin had used Huang Jiulang once, but then he went to Hangzhou and had no contact. This time, Yuyin found Huang Wentao as soon as possible and continued to hire.
Although it costs 100 yuan a month, for Yu Yin, being able to get the news as soon as possible is worth it.
Of course, no one knows about this relationship.
That Huang Wentao is nominally Huo Jian's subordinate, and it seems that he has nothing to do with Yuyin.
But in fact, this guy directly obeyed Yu Yin's dispatch and acted as Yu Yin's eyes and ears in Kaifeng City......
Since the last time Emperor Mao De said that Feng Zheng and Qianjin Yixiao Lou moved around frequently, Yu Yin always felt that something was wrong, so he stared at Qianjin Yixiaolou.
But after two months, nothing was gained.
Yu Yin didn't dare to relax, and still let Huang Wentao take people and monitor them closely.
Huo Jian nodded, indicating that he understood.
Yu Yin stopped being wordy. led the horse out of Guanyin Lane, and then flew on the horse and went straight to the Taiwei Mansion.
It was almost night, the streets were deserted, and there were hardly any pedestrians.
Perhaps due to the haze of war, Kaifeng City no longer saw the hustle and bustle of the past...... Once upon a time, he rode on horseback. It can only be slowed down step by step. But tonight, Yu Yin can gallop on the long street......
In front of the Taiwei Mansion, the lights are colorful.
The principle of Gao Yu's life is very simple. Don't form cliques.
Besides, now that the clamor of the five thieves is high, he doesn't want to be in the limelight at this time. So he was sick at home and refused to see guests.
I heard that Yu Yin was visiting, but Gao Yu did not refuse.
asked people to bring Yu Yin to the study of the back house, Gao Yu warmed the wine, and let Yu Yin sit down.
"Xiao Yi came here on Chinese New Year's Eve, presumably there must be something to say."
Yu Yin's face flushed, and he hurriedly bowed down to greet Gao Yu first, and then said the purpose of this trip.
"You want to go to sour dates?"
"Exactly."
Gao Yu frowned, and said softly: "You have to think clearly, go to the sour dates." You have to fight the thieves, but it's not a safe place. ”…,
"If the thief successfully crosses the river, he will stay in Kaifeng, and I am afraid that it will not be safe."
"Xiao Yi is saying that sour dates should not be taken prisoners?"
"This. The little nephew said it was not good...... But I heard that the sour jujube garrison is lax, and I am afraid that it will not be able to stop the army of thieves, tigers and wolves. ”
Gao Yu's face was slightly red.
The sour jujube armament is relaxed, and the Tokyo Forbidden Army is not like this.
It's just that there are some things that he can't do...... To put it bluntly. He, the former lieutenant of the palace, is just a pretense for Emperor Huizong.
"Since Xiao Yi intends to serve the country, then I will not stop it.
Well, after the New Year, I'll transfer your roster to the military department...... But the ugly words are in the front, and I am the master of the palace, but on the side of the Privy Council, my own family can't help me. You need to walk up and down if you want it to come true. ”
"Little nephew, save it."
Seeing Gao Yu agree, Yu Yin breathed a sigh of relief.
No matter what later generations say about Gao Yu, Gao Yu is not too bad for himself after all.
In fact, most of the impressions of later generations of Gao Yu come from "Water Margin". Yu Yin has no intention of rehabilitating Gao Yu, this person does not learn and has no skills, but he can sit on this son safely, but he is not good at it.
As the ancients said: A gentleman can deceive him.
People like Gao Yu can coexist peacefully, and it is best not to offend.
Not to mention, in the case that the Manchu Dynasty civil and military did not take Yu Yin in their eyes, only Gao Yu really helped Yu Yin.
This guy, although he is cunning and unlearned, is also a righteous person!
"Uncle, do you seem to be a little troubled?"
Gao Yu was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and smiled: "It's really old, I don't want to be seen by Xiao Yi." ”
"If uncle can trust Xiao Yi, why don't you talk to Xiao Yi?"
Sighing softly, Gao Yu showed a bitter smile, "What do you say...... In fact, it is also simple, although Taishang Daojun has abdicated, you also know how he is in the Zen position this time. Daojun has always wanted to go to Jinling and seek a recovery...... In the past two days, Daojun repeatedly asked his family to go to Jinling with him.
Xiao Yi, but I don't want to hide it from you, my own family has been supported by the Taoist monarch, and I have no regrets in this life.
It stands to reason that the Taoist is my nobleman, and I should obey it...... However, Saburo is still young, and my decision will affect his future even more. That's why I'm worried, I don't know how to decide, can Xiao Yi guide me to the maze? ”
Historically, Emperor Huizong went south, and Gao Yu led the forbidden army to accompany him.
Later, after he arrived in Sizhou, he clashed with Tong Guan. Huizong continued to travel south, taking Tong Guan south, and letting Gao Yu stay in Sizhou. Gao Yu is also smart, and when he saw that the situation was not good, he immediately returned to Kaifeng, which can be regarded as a good death.
The father-son battle between Emperor Huizong and Emperor Qinzong was finally won by Qinzong after he relieved the siege of Kaifeng.
Tong Guan and others were all liquidated, and only Gao Yu was spared.
It's just because of Gao Yu's early decision that Qin Zong was worried.
After Gao Yu's death, the three sons of the Gao family quickly fell out of favor and have ceased to be remembered.
Yu Yin didn't know much about this history, and he also knew that if Gao Yu left at this time, what impact would it have on the forbidden army.
No matter what, even if he is a puppet, he is always the captain of the palace!
"Uncle, Xiao Yi has a sentence that I don't know whether to say or not."
"But it doesn't hurt to say it."
Yu Yin took a deep breath and said softly: "It is true that the Taishang Daojun and his uncle are gracious, but now it is the official family who is in charge.
Daojun is already in the Zen position, and if he wants to resurrect it, his name is not right...... And what about the official family? Now is the time to employ people. If you look at the article of the Great Song Observation Weekly, it is only to kill the five thieves, and it has nothing to do with my uncle. If the uncle can stand on the side of the official family at this time, it is impossible to say that he can benefit his children and grandchildren. Besides, my uncle thinks that if you are a concubine and you, which one will the Daojun favor? The prime minister held the victorious army, and the uncle was in charge of the forbidden army...... In the past, it may be possible to do well water without invading the river water, but if you follow the Taoist monarch to the south, you will have to fight for power and profit. Could it be that my uncle is willing to surrender his military power? …,
If this is the case, it is better to stay in Kaifeng and live faster! ”
Tong Guan!
When Gao Yu heard this name, a touch of anger flashed in his eyes.
Although Emperor Huizong favored him, among Emperor Huizong, Gao Yu was always a foreign minister...... On the contrary, it was Tong Guan, and Emperor Huizong's trust in him far exceeded that of Gao Yu. After all, Tong Guan was a eunuch and a minister of Emperor Huizong.
Distant relatives are clear at a glance.
Gao Yu suddenly smiled and filled Yuyin with a glass of wine, "It's not early, Xiaoyi go back early, don't let your family wait for a long time." ”
He did not indicate whether he was willing to listen to Yu Yin's persuasion, but Yu Yin knew that Gao Yu had made a decision.
This is the case of the so-called one-leaf obstacle and the situation of high-ranking talents...... Now that he took that piece away, he naturally had an opinion.
Gao Yu has been immersed in his career for many years, and his scheming and means are by no means comparable to Yuyin.
For Yu Yin, if Gao Yu can stay, he will always be an arm help, even far better than the verbal support of Li Gang and others.
So the nephew took his leave...... Say hello to Saburo on my behalf, and I won't come to my uncle tomorrow to greet the New Year.
Tomorrow, the uncle will be buried, and then the nephew will return to the Mutuogang military village. If my uncle has something, I'll ask Saburo to call me. ”
Gao Yu smiled and nodded, and sent Yu Yin out of the study.
Under the porch, he suddenly called Yu Yin again, "Xiao Yi, the Heavenly Prison will be transferred to Mu Huogang."
I advise you to stay a few more days, while I manage to put you in the position of the Heavenly Eunuch and the Eunuch, and then seek to go to the sour date. The capital of Tiansi Prison is a military attache from the fifth grade...... In this way, when you arrive at the sour date, no matter how bad it is, it is also a control, it is better than after you pass, you will have to be controlled, and it is better than staying in this Kaifeng Mansion to be free, how about it? ”
When Yu Yin heard this, there was a burst of ecstasy in his heart.
"In this case, thank you uncle!" (To be continued) RQ
