There was a temporary peace on the border, and it was supposed that the imperial court should take a good rest, but the reality was not so simple, because another surging turmoil slowly unfolded. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

What is this turmoil, in fact, it is the seizure of power, we can also call it infighting. One side must be Yan Song, because he is now in power.

But the other party is not Xu Jie and Peng Yue, because they know that their current strength is not enough, but there is a person who feels that his current strength is very strong, and he wants to compete with Yan Song to seize power, who is this person? That's right, it's the great general Qiu Luan!

Of course, Qiu Luan also has capital, because he also knows how to find opportunities for himself to seize power. It is said that after Qiu Luan became the governor of the Rong government, it was equivalent to taking over the military power, but he was not satisfied, because he still wanted to control the border generals.

So he asked Zhu Houxi to change the three auxiliary ministers, and Xu Jue, the general soldier of Datong, was stationed in Yizhou, and Xu Ren was awarded by the Datong General Military Administration, and Li Fengming and Cheng Xun, the general soldiers of Jizhen of Xuanfu, were also exchanged with each other. And the border soldiers from all over the country were selected to enter the guard and be subordinated to the Beijing battalion. There are police officers on the plug, and the border generals are not allowed to collect, and they must report to the Ming Rong government and dispatch Yunyun at their discretion.

In fact, this is completely Qiu Luan's selfishness, in this way, if there is a real war, the border army will be too much contained, and the only benefit is that Qiu Luan has more power.

But he didn't expect Zhu Houxi to read Qiu Luan's "great merit", and he didn't even think about it, and sent Qiu Luan's original performance to the military department, and ordered it to be executed.

Wang Bangrui naturally saw Qiu Luan's selfishness and the disadvantages of this move, so he tried his best to dissuade Zhu Houxi, but Zhu Houxi not only listened, but reprimanded Wang Bangrui.

After a few days, Zhu Houxi still felt that it was not enjoyable, so he gave Qiu Luan a seal, so that he could seal it secretly, and all the answers were carried out by the internal department, not the military department. At this point, Qiu Luan's power has completely overridden the military department.

At this time, whether it was out of public or selfish intentions, Wang Bangrui couldn't sit idly by, so he repeatedly argued, but he didn't want to annoy Zhu Houxi, and directly cut him down.

Qiu Luan saw Zhu Houxi pampering himself like this, so he became even more proud. Think about it at this time, the emperor is favored, the power is in his hands, and he has Peng Yue, Xu Jie, and other important ministers to help him, can he still be afraid of Yan Song? I'm afraid that his position as the head of the cabinet will have to be taken over and sat for himself!

If you want to say that a stupid person is a stupid person, one of the iconic characteristics is that he does not measure himself, Qiu Luan is like this, if Yan Song was really so easy to knock down, he would have died a long time ago, and it was your turn?

But at this time, Qiu Luan didn't understand this, and he still shouted shamelessly: General Ben is going to march north and calm the border chaos at once! also asked Peng Yue's household department to send envoys out to urge taxes and grain as soldiers' salaries, which made Peng Yue frown.

But Qiu Luan didn't think so, thinking that this was a symbol of his good relationship with Peng Yue and others, and felt that the household department was also under his control, but he forgot how Peng Yue gave him the position of general in the first place.

Or did Peng Yue and Xu Jie later tell Qiu Luan, you made a big fuss, and the emperor really asked you to go to the north to conquer the north, have you forgotten Zhai Peng's disaster? Qiu Luan weighed his ability at this time, and then he was silent.

But Peng Yue had a change of mind: it seems that the mud can't support the wall, he shouldn't have given him such a big credit in the first place, and he was squandered like this!

Xu Jie's thoughts have also changed, but he has not been bound by Qiu Qingge, and has become more thorough. In his eyes, Qiu Luan is a complete villain, the degree of shamelessness is comparable to Yan Song, this kind of person must not be kept, but to maximize his value, let him and Yan Song bite each other, it is best to lose both, and then reap the benefits of the fisherman.

But before Qiu Luan could make a move to Yan Song, a brave man stood up and was ready to launch a fierce attack on Yan Song with his weak strength, this person was Jinyiwei who experienced Shen Lian and came from Qipin.

This is a very peculiar person, because although he is a Jinyiwei, his personality does not conform to the style of Jinyiwei. He was upright, jealous and hateful, and often talked about current affairs, but in comparison, he was even more active than some officials.

For example, not long ago, I answered to the city of Beijing and asked for tribute, but many people remained silent, but Zhao Zhenji, the secretary, stepped forward and said impassionedly that he would fight to the end.

Of course, this Zhao Zhenji is also a civil official, and he is a thorough civil official, so his strength is different from Peng Yue's kind in the end. For example, when Zhu Houyu asked him, what strategy he said was to make Zhu Houyu personally worship the Heavenly Gate, issue an edict against himself, reward Zhou Shangwen, and open up his way of speech. If you want to say that it's okay in normal times, but now it's far away from water that can't quench your thirst, so you can have a fart for it.

Of course, Zhu Houxi didn't listen to his opinion, but in order to show his appreciation for his courage, he was promoted to Zuo Chunfang Zuo Yude.

Of course, this courage is indeed worthy of appreciation, because at that time, few ministers in the court dared to support Zhao Zhenji's proposal to fight, and Shen Lian was one.

He was originally a petty official from the seventh grade, ranking the lowliest, but he still stood up without hesitation and publicly expressed his support for Zhao Zhenji: What Zhao Gong said is very true!

Of course, many officials looked down on this petty official, among them, Xia Bangmo, the official of the Ministry of Officials, was the most severe, and he looked at Shen Lian with very sarcastic eyes, "Your Excellency is any official now?" ”

The meaning is obvious: you're a fart, do you have a part in talking here?

Shen Lian didn't care, and said loudly, "I have experienced Shen Lian from the seven-grade brocade guard, and now the country is in great trouble, you adults don't say anything, and the little officials should say it!" ”

It can be seen that the righteousness of such a majestic and righteous spirit can be seen.

It is said that people with this kind of personality are generally difficult to mix in officialdom, and it is even more difficult to mix in Jinyi Wei, but Shen Lian was lucky to meet Lu Bing, a good officer.

Although Lu Bing and Yan Song conspired to kill Xia Yan and Zeng Miao, he has always been ashamed of this time, and even secretly regretted it, because his essence is good, he still has a conscience, and he is not a bad person. framed Xia Yan at the beginning because he really couldn't swallow the breath in his heart, and he couldn't stand Xia Yan's insult, but after killing Xia Yan, especially when he saw the chaos on the side, he really had a bad conscience.

So he took a fancy to Shen Lian and admired his courage and uprightness, so Lu Bing took Shen Lian with him and made him his personal guard.

Of course, Lu Bing's purpose in doing this is not only to show his weight, but also to protect him, so as to save this straight man from causing trouble for himself and causing trouble.

However, Lu Bing's intentional arrangement brought more trouble to Shen Lian, because one of the places he often went in and out of was Yan Song's house... (To be continued.) )
