Chapter 599: Zhang Xueyan's Appreciation
On the way back, the bereaved Hermes-Epitek sang a folk song, although the voice was indistinct, but with the addition of many people, the tune was like a gloomy dark cloud gradually dispersing in the sky, allowing everyone to see the sun. Even if they returned to Liaodong, this group of people who had been away from their homes for too long were once full of pessimism about the future, and the howling and crying when they entered the Yahu Pass was not only their past, but also the future. But now, it is rare to hear such heart-warming words from other people's mouths, who is not full of hope and looking forward to starting a new life?
After returning to Yahu Pass, he immediately asked to see Zhang Xueyan, and finally succeeded in meeting the governor of Liaodong after being rejected several times. As soon as he said the matter, he saw Zhang Xueyan's face like the bottom of a black pot, but when he repeated what he had said to the group of Hanmin before, Zhang Xueyan said that his face was still very ugly, but in the end he was silent. After a long while, he said carefully: "This matter is the accounting of the Ministry itself. ”
Although it is an official tone, at least there is still a bit of drama, Wang Fulin knows that this is not the time to force Zhang Xueyan to express his position while the iron is hot, but it should be stopped in moderation and accepted when it is good. But as soon as his words of resignation came to his lips, he only heard Zhang Xueyan speak: "Dong Ebu saw that the six cities near Hetuara were killing each other, taking advantage of the situation to attack, and they had been defeated by Cao Gui, the deputy commander-in-chief of Liaoyang, who was assisting in guarding Liaoyang, and Wang Wutang did not expect that Liaodong would send troops, so he fled in embarrassment, and General Cao came forward to mediate, and now Jue Chang'an's eldest son Li Dun has written to ask for the position of hereditary commander of the left guard of Jianzhou. ”
Before the army set out from the Yahu Pass, although Wang Fulin was under house arrest, he was still able to detect the movement. Unexpectedly, Zhang Xueyan was not at the time of the so-called Ningguta Liubeile Civil War in Hetuala. Take advantage of its illness to kill it. uprooted such a force, but also helped outsiders when they planned to take advantage of the fire to rob - but I have to say that this is the right choice to make as the governor of Liaodong, because all along, the Ming Dynasty's strategy for the Jurchens has been to constantly suppress the rising, help the weak, divide and separate, so that they cannot be unified and strong. Therefore, for many years, the Jurchen tribes have always been like a plate of scattered sand.
Li Chengliang's biggest mistake in history was to kill Jue Chang'an and Takshi, and then help Nurhachi, who was not originally the ironclad heir, to give the edict, and to the horses, and then to destroy all Nurhachi's opponents, and then he lost the Liaodong General Army because of the court dispute, leaving the Jurchen male lord time to grow stronger and have room to play.
Until this time. He said convincingly: "Zhang Buyuan is really far-sighted. ”
"Don't be a sycophant, when you used to make your own decisions. Didn't you slander me unreasonably in my heart, right? Zhang Xueyan unceremoniously exposed Wang Fulin's thoughts, seeing that this young jinshi didn't blink his eyelids, he secretly sighed that this kid was thick-skinned, and said in a slowed tone, "However, General Cao's trip was not in vain to rescue, and he brought back hundreds of descendants of the Han people in Liaodong by the way." As for the king of Dong'e and the Wutang, he has already been warned that if he captures another Han people in the future, he will hang two heads in the Yahu Pass! ”
Wang Fulin didn't expect Zhang Xueyan to make such a tough statement, and he was immediately surprised and delighted, but then he thought of the imperial history of the court who had nothing to do with the eggs, and he only felt that this matter was not very optimistic. But then he heard something that stunned him.
"You made a bunch of things before, I have reported it to the imperial court, and the details have also been clearly written Chen told Lord Shoufu, and by the way, I recommend you to go to the Metropolitan Procuratorate, which can be regarded as fulfilling my previous promise. You can say that Zhao Deming and Li Ye can provide convenience to you in Fushun Pass, where you are not familiar with life, and you can also say that Hong Jiyuan is willing to take responsibility for you, it is a pity that this lip service is not used to bombard those speech officials in the DPRK. Of course, the premise is that after you go back, you can pass the level in the court safely, otherwise there is no need to say anything. ”
Wang Fulin didn't know what to say at all -- I want to say thank you, this trip to Liaodong was really a lot of surprises, Zhang Xueyan dug a lot of pits for him, and he in turn dug several pits for others. But if you want to talk about resentment, no matter what, this governor of Liaodong is also a person who can communicate, not to mention high-ranking civil officials in Liaodong like Zhang Chongzheng and Hong Jiyuan, who are all commendable people with courage and responsibility, even the Li family's father and son, in addition to selfishness, fighting and leading troops are first-class. Although he didn't want to be the imperial historian at all, he didn't say anything in the end, just took a step back and took a deep look. But the next moment, another drama came.
"However, I have said a few words of justice to you, but you have to do one more thing for me."
Wang Fulin immediately became vigilant: "Zhang Buyuan, please say first, if I can do it, I will definitely never shirk it." ”
"Little slippery!" Zhang Xueyan scolded with a smile, and finally said bluntly, "It's very simple, I went to the book to protect Shen Yourong, you might as well suggest him to participate in Yingtian Wuju, and let him come to Liaodong as soon as he has his background, I am lacking a young general like him who is not a Liao person, but has courage and wisdom!" Moreover, although Li Rusong said that he complained about you playing him around, he recognized Shen Yourong quite a lot, and it was not difficult to promote him. Of course, the Shen family is a southeastern wang clan, and if they are bent on taking the imperial examination, I will not say anything. I will return to Liaoyang tomorrow, and you and your people, as well as those Han people, will also set off with you. ”
Wang Fulin almost felt that this was like drowsiness and encountering a pillow, and he almost wanted to laugh and shout long live for Shen Yourong's good luck, but he finally calmed down, and at this time he showed a little embarrassed expression, and hesitated for a while before agreeing. When it was time to retire, he walked out of Zhang Xueyan's house, and deliberately stayed outside for a while, until he walked all the way into the residence of his group, and sent Feng Zhong Liu Bo to look outside, he rushed into Shen Yourong's house quickly, and as soon as he entered the door, he didn't care about Shen Maoxue, who happened to be there, and came directly to Shen Yourong, and patted him on the shoulder.
"Ouch...... Hey, Brother Wang, why are you so happy? The corners of Shen Yourong's mouth twitched in pain, but he was still infected by Wang Fulin's face full of joy, and immediately guessed, "Could it be that Zhang Buyuan forgave our previous deception?" That's a good thing, so it won't affect your future......"
"What is my future, let's put it aside, this time it's good news for you kid." Wang Fulin smiled and sat on the edge of the bed, and then glanced at Shen Mao Xuedao, "I just went to see Zhang Buyuan, he was full of praise for Shihong, and felt that Liaodong should have such a brave and resourceful, courageous young general, let me come back and persuade Shihong to go back to Nanzhili Ying Tianwuju to take the exam, and then add this meritorious service, he is willing to give Shihong a military position in Liaodong, so that you don't have to start from a small soldier." ”
"Huh?" Shen Yourong was a little dazed, the good news came so quickly that he didn't even dare to believe his ears.
"Zhang Buyuan is still afraid of Xuancheng Shen's scholarly family, you have to go to the next department, and say that if that is the case, forget it, he doesn't dare to force it......"
"No, no, no, this is what I can't ask for, what is forcible to ask for!" Shen Yourong burst out impatiently with such a sentence, but as soon as he looked up and saw Shen Maoxue glaring at him coldly, he immediately closed his mouth after being teased by his uncle for several days, but he still secretly glanced at Wang Fulin with his eyes, hoping that he would turn around and say a few good words to himself.
"Shiqing, it's not my utilitarianism, you might as well wait for a few days to reply to Zhang Buyuan on this matter. People are like this, they will never cherish what they get easily, but they will regard what they can't ask for as treasures. Although Zhang Buyuan has a high prestige in Liaodong, he is not a local after all, and he has been the governor for four years, and he has made great contributions, is it possible that he will stay there forever? His term of office is mostly two or three years, or at most one year, and he will be promoted to the court because of his repeated meritorious deeds. Wuju will come to Liaodong next year, and wait for Shihong to take the exam, how long will he serve? Since the time of shelter under him is very short, it is necessary to make Zhang Buyuan feel that Shihong has given up a lot in order to join the army. ”
Wang Fulin also agreed with Shen Maoxue's statement, and immediately nodded: "That's what I mean, so I agreed quite reluctantly at Zhang Buyuan, and I was also a little hesitant. There is no way to do this, the southeast and Liaodong are too far apart, and there have always been few generals from Nanzhili in Liaodong, and Shihong will encounter countless difficulties in the future. If you can't keep his exploits and sacrifices in mind, what will happen to Zhang Buyuan after he leaves office in the future? This is a long-term matter, and I came here to say hello to you first. ”
Shen Yourong didn't expect that his uncle Shen Maoxue seemed to be strict with him, but he thought so deeply at the critical moment; And Wang Fulin was not annoyed by Shen Maoxue's pouring cold water, but also put himself in his shoes, he couldn't help but feel agitated, moved and guilty. But before he could say anything, he only heard Wang Fulin smile at him and said, "I just hope that I will be a candidate for another year and a half, so that I can go to Xuancheng to drink your cup of wedding wine, and take it home to visit my relatives by the way, so that you and Brother Shen can meet my son." ”
Everyone has long been familiar with each other, so whether it is Shen Maoxue or Shen Yourong, they all know that Wang Fulin has an adopted son who can take the Xiucai exam, and the atmosphere is suddenly relaxed and lively. After Wang Fulin pondered for a while and got up to leave, Shen Maoxue said: "When I first met Shiqing in the past, I always thought that he had already won the Jinshi at a young age, and he would definitely be a little arrogant. Shihong, remember, the so-called friend is someone who can think about you wholeheartedly. ”
Shen Yourong nodded hurriedly, then tilted his head and thought about it, and suddenly asked in a low voice: "He didn't mention his own affairs just now, does my uncle think the result will be good then?" ”
"I don't know." Shen Mao Xuerao is full of economy, both civil and military, but at this moment, he can only smile bitterly, "The battle between the court, although there is no sword and sword, is more dangerous than the battlefield." I can only hope that Lord Shousuke can see everything and understand our hard work, your heart. ”
