Chapter 224: On the Way West

"However, this time we came out of the capital, and the entourage was not much, only with some weapons and a few days' food and grass, I am afraid that it will not be long before we can reach Datong. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info", Peng Yue has changed to the carriage at this moment, he really can't stand the bumps of the horses, he didn't expect the soldiers to work so hard.

"What Master Peng said is extremely true, according to the current marching speed, I am afraid that one day will come...", Yang Bo was also invited by Peng Yue to the carriage at this time, but he was still a little restrained.

But he said that Peng Yue had always wanted to win over Yang Bo on this trip, so he invited Yang Bo to accompany him in a carriage, but he didn't expect Yang Bo to politely refuse on the grounds of overseeing the army, but he couldn't withstand Peng Yue's repeated invitations, so he still sat in the carriage.

"This march is extremely hard, I invite you here, but I won't be unhappy in my heart, right?" , Peng Yue asked with a smile.

"Where is Lord Peng, it is our duty to serve the country, and it is the wish of the lower officials to be able to go to Datong with the adults to eliminate the northern captives this time." , Yang Bo said not to be smiling.

"Haha, I admire only Gaoyi...", Peng Yue casually opened the curtain and looked out the window, "Although the emperor only gave you a martial arts position from the third grade this time, but with your only talent, this time you will definitely be able to make contributions to the outside, I am afraid that it will inevitably be rewarded by the emperor..."

Peng Yue said lightly, in fact, he wanted to point to Yang Bo in his words, he gave him a position, and he gave him the opportunity to be promoted, hoping that he could understand his mind and come under his command.

"Thanks to the love of the saint, I used to be only a fourth-grade civil official, but now I have obtained the title of third-grade, and I am grateful to the emperor for his kindness. I also hope that this time I can kill the enemy and make meritorious contributions to repay the grace of the saints. Yang Bo said earnestly.

Listening to Yang Bo's specious answer, Peng Yue couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart. He was indeed a smart man. Peng Yue could hear that he didn't want to get involved in the court battle, in fact, he secretly signaled many times during this march, but Yang Bo still pretended to be confused like this.

However, Yang Bo does have his own unique views on military affairs, and he said many ideas that made Peng Yue feel novel. Peng Yue could hear that he was not Zhao Kuo's kind of person who talked on paper. is a military wizard with super ability, and he has also benefited a lot from Yang Bo, and combined with the military books he read, he has received a lot of practical lessons.

"Weiyue, I remember that you are a Jinshi in the eighth year of Jiajing, right?" Peng Yue asked with a smile.

"Thank you for remembering that Xiaguan is indeed the imperial court that Jiajing entered in the eighth year." , Yang Bo was also a little surprised when he heard Peng Yue ask about it.

"Actually, the two of us are very fateful, and I am also a member of Jiajing in the eighth year." Peng Yue sighed, "It's been so many years in a flash, I think it was still Zhang Xuan who was in power back then, but now it's a matter of things." ”

"The lower official is ashamed, although he entered the office in the same year as the adult, but he is not as talented as the adult, and now the adult has been the official to the sixth, and I am still... Haha...". When Yang Bo said this, he couldn't help but laugh.

"But that's not true. Although my official position is slightly higher than you now, it doesn't mean that my ability is higher than you, and sometimes it's luck. Peng Yue looked at Yang Bo with a smile, "I think Zhang Xuan was appreciated by the emperor because of the etiquette incident, and quickly climbed from an idle person in Nanjing to the central body of the cabinet. The promotion speed of the first assistant in the summer is also impressive. I think he went from a minor official to the head of the cabinet, but it took a few years, and sometimes he still has to rely on the emperor's appreciation, right? ”

"Lord Peng's promotion must be caused by talent. The talent of an adult must be much higher than that of a lower official...", Yang Bo replied in a low voice, he didn't know why Peng Yue said these things to himself, and there were some things in it, but he couldn't say it nonsense...

"Haha... But the covenant doesn't have to be so rigid. With your talent, I think it is a matter of time before you are promoted. Peng Yue's expression suddenly became serious, "It's just that sometimes villains abuse power, and a loyal and capable person like you is afraid that he will be excluded, but it will be difficult to display his ambitions." ”

Peng Yue had a smile on the corner of his mouth at this time, but his eyes were firmly fixed on Yang Bo, and his words couldn't be clearer.

"Thanks to the fact that the adults can afford to look down on the lower officials, the lower officials will definitely serve the country wholeheartedly." , how could Yang Bo not understand the meaning of Peng Yue's words at this time, but he didn't want to participate in the political disputes, so he couldn't help but secretly raise his vigilance.

"But today's saints, I don't think there will be villains who abuse power, as long as the lower officials can serve the country wholeheartedly, this is enough..."

"Actually, Xia Guan is very satisfied now, I think that when Zhai Luan Zhai University was promoted to me, I can have today's position, I am really grateful."

Yang Bo's meaning is also very clear, he just wants to do his own thing honestly, and he really doesn't want to get involved in your chaotic court battle. But I don't know how to repay my kindness, but I just repay the kindness of Zhai Luan, who has gone to the throne, in short, I don't want to participate in the major events in the DPRK and China, and it is enough to honestly read my own military books and fight my own battles.

Peng Yue couldn't hear what Yang Bo meant, and couldn't help but be slightly angry: "But the covenant is confused, if the villain is in power, I am afraid that the person who is loyal to the country will be degraded, but the villain who is willing to welcome him has to be in a high position, which is the case in history." ”

In fact, Peng Yue didn't want to be like Yang Bo in his heart, just honestly doing his own reform, but people are in their position, and they can't help themselves, if they can't get rid of the traitors and firmly grasp the power, then the reform will not be done. is not like Yang Bo, who honestly reads his own military books, fights his own battles, is not controlled, lives freely, and is happy.

"The words of the adult, the lower officials have written it down, if there is a villain who bewitches the saint, the lower officials will not tolerate him, but the low power is light, and it will not play much role after all. But rest assured, the lower officials can still distinguish the right from wrong, and in any case, the lower officials will not agree to the troubles of some villains. ”

Yang Bo couldn't resist Peng Yue's repeated advice, and he could only show his attitude like this. In fact, Yang Bo is a person with a sense of justice, but he knows that his official rank is not enough, and he is not a good hand at political struggle, so he can only do so.

Although he must be against the conspiracy villain in his heart, he really can't help in reality, because he still has to protect himself. Only by preserving oneself can one expel the northern captives and rescue the suffering people.

Hearing Yang Bo say this, Peng Yue couldn't say anything more. Indeed, he also understands Yang Bo's thoughts, he is a smart person, and his approach is also a smart approach.

Imagine if he was in Yang Bo's position, maybe his choice would be the same as Yang Bo's, just honestly engage in his own reforms, because he was tired of these court struggles.

But now that I am in it, I can't dodge it at all, and I can only throw myself into this mighty torrent... (To be continued.) )
