Chapter 876: The Candidate Who Responded
Although there is still no vacancy to fill for the time being, Zheng Yougui is still just a white-clothed clerk, but he has been smiling all the time these days. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info He was most glad that Wang Fulin actually told him that he would stay in the Metropolitan Procuratorate for a year and a half. Of course, he was willing to follow Wang Fulin to any yamen, but after all, the Metropolitan Procuratorate was the place where he was used to doing things, and it would be best if he didn't go. Following Wang Fulin, he had plenty of money and went in and out decently, and even the few officials who didn't take him seriously in the past now, seeing that Hu Quan and Liu Wanfeng were polite to him, they all had to call him Brother Zheng.
On this day, he walked briskly into a straight room, and when he saw Wang Jiguang looking up at him, he saluted and said, "Wang Shiyu, the master of the master, please come over." ”
Wang Jiguang didn't say anything, and immediately stood up. After a serious illness before, and learned that the situation at home was not very good, he looked haggard and thin, and what made him even more uncomfortable was that Wang Fulin invited him to Zhu Zongji, a famous imperial doctor in the Tai Hospital, and also gave him a medical fee, and even when he was likely to lose his seat because of his illness at home, he tried his best to win him a full month of sick leave.
During this month, Wang Fulin actually relied on three people, including himself, to support the daily affairs of the entire Guangdong Province, and the impeachment outside the daily affairs was no matter what happened, or even the recommendation, but it did not make the Guangdong Province appear to be unknown in the entire Metropolitan Procuratorate.
Now, he knows very well that he owes Wang Fulin a favor that he can't pay back in his life, and everyone knows it. If he does anything to be sorry for this boss in the future, he is afraid that he will drown himself just by spitting from the people in the Metropolitan Procuratorate. His personality is already a bit utilitarian, he wants to be famous, and he wants to climb up, but when the initial idea of stepping on Wang Fulin's upward movement completely came to naught, and he found that his boss had a background, money, and ability, and he was reckless and alone, the consequence might be that he was ruined and had nothing, so it was better to hug a thick thigh.
Therefore, when he came to Wang Fulin, he no longer had the faint confrontation he had before, but saluted respectfully: "Master Zhangdao." ”
"Zishan, look at this."
Although Guangdong Dao is now in addition to his own only three imperial histories, Wang Fulin does not have any bias, and in the eyes of others, he is enough to treat everyone equally. But no one else has made a big mistake with him, whether it is praise or criticism, it is just a very ordinary relationship between superiors and subordinates. But Wang Jiguang is different. After being criticized by him, he instructed him to climb the wall of Zhang's house in the past, and he came to the rescue when he was seriously ill this time, so now that he encountered something, his first thought was to let Wang Jiguang take the lead.
Seeing that Wang Jiguang took the piece of paper he handed over, and carefully read it at least three times, he asked, "What do you think?" ”
Previously, Wang Fulin successively sent people to beat Chen Liang and Guo Bao, and when he took the two under his command by Zhang Juzheng's will, he used the excuse that Cheng Naixuan sent a letter from Liaodong when he visited Zhang's scholar's mansion at night. And now, Cheng Naixuan asked the scholar Moxiang to send him a private letter that wrote the ins and outs of the whole thing, and also picked out Li Chengliang's attitude, and Cheng Naixuan went to Liaodong with the military department to give the matter Guangmao has just officially sent the question book to the General Administration, but it is not the result of the official investigation, but he told himself that he found a survivor of the surrender of the Chahaner Department in the victory of Changdingbao.
It was this herdsman of the Chahaner tribe who risked his life to stop Guangmao who claimed that the so-called victory at Changdingbao was an outright fraud, and the so-called invasion of the Tuban Khan of the Chahaner tribe was a lie at all, but in fact Tao Chengyu killed and surrendered.
In addition to sending such a transcript, Guangmao also escorted the survivor by one of his entourages and Li Chengliang, the general soldier of Liaodong, and waited for a reply from the capital at Shanhaiguan when the time came. At the same time, Li Chengliang's inscription book had just been delivered, and he sternly stated that the person Guangmao found was just a captive spy.
"There have been many battles throughout the ages." Wang Jiguang first sneered contemptuously, and then seemed to notice his gaffe, and hurriedly bowed down and said, "Lord Zhangdao asked me to see this, but what are your orders?" ”
"Before, Lord Zongxian summoned me over and showed me this copy of the Guangmao inscription, and it should be that the whole Jingshi will spread this matter wildly later. The meaning of the Cabinet Chief Minister-sama is to let the Metropolitan Procuratorate send someone over to take this guy who was escorted by Guangmao back to the capital for inquiry, and the Governor General asked me to recommend a person, and I will ask for your opinion now. Although you mentioned that you are good at horseback riding, but you have just recovered from a serious illness, and then from Jingshi to Shanhaiguan, the journey is not very far, but it is not close, and more importantly, the road may not be too peaceful. If you want, I recommend you. If you don't want to, I'll let Wang Xuezeng go. ”
If this is replaced by the moment when he first entered the Metropolitan Procuratorate and was eager to try, Wang Jiguang's first reaction in the face of such a thing must be to think about whether there is a problem if an important errand fell on his head in the sky, and then he will consider whether Wang Fulin will set himself up again, but now he almost doesn't need to think about it at all. He nodded directly, and readily agreed: "Don't worry, Lord Zhangdao, my illness has been cured, otherwise, even if it is for the sake of my own future, I will listen to Imperial Doctor Zhu and recuperate at home." Canton Road is my youngest, who will go if I don't go? ”
Regarding Wang Jiguang's words, Wang Fulin did not comment. In fact, the most suitable person to go to Liaodong was not Guangmao, but him, but since he already knew that this victory might be a mess, he was really too lazy to have a fight with the Li family's father and son, so he simply volunteered to go out of the horse, but stuffed Cheng Naixuan over. Now that Guangmao has found a fish that slipped through the net, how can he believe that things are so coincidental? You must know that Li Chengliang has certainly managed Liaodong as his own back garden, but just as Liu Tai, who was a patrol in the past, he was not used to it, and now it may not be really an iron bucket.
However, if it should be reminded, he still did not hesitate to remind Wang Jiguang.
"You don't have to be too fast, but you can't be too slow. In this matter, the Jinyi Guard will also send someone to follow you. Seeing that Wang Jiguang was surprised at first, and then frowned, Wang Fulin said in a deep voice, "This is what the emperor meant, and it is also what Gonggong Feng and Lord Shoufu meant, do you understand?" Therefore, this is not a negotiation, it is a decision that has been made and cannot be changed. However, you are the official superintendent of the Imperial History of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, so you don't need to be polite to those brocade guards, you must know that this trip is dominated by you, and they have to listen to you regardless of whether their official position is higher than yours. ”
This time, Wang Jiguang immediately stretched his brows. Although the factory guard has always been the object of hatred of civil officials, as long as they care about their reputation, they will not show any cowardice in front of these guys. Moreover, since there is such a name as self-centered, there is nothing to worry about. He is not worried about his own safety, if there is something wrong with the Imperial Supervisor on the road, it will be a major event that will shake the world, and the entire Shilin will be turned upside down. What's more troublesome is that the prisoner sent to the capital by Guangmao is just alive or dead!
"Can you tell me who is the leader of Jinyiwei this time?"
"Jin Yiwei is the first to be punished by Guo Bao, who I have dealt with several times when I was in the Three Laws Division. This person is quite cautious, you don't have to worry that he will rely on his position in Beizhen Fusi to point fingers at you. ”
Although he asked Liu Bo to inquire about Chen Liang before, he found that Jinyiwei didn't know much about Liaodong's affairs, after all, the thirteenth division of Jinyiwei was located in the thirteenth political division, and the Liaodong capital division was a place under military management, and there was no branch of Jinyiwei, but this time it was Guo Bao who went out in person, and while he was a little relieved, he had to worry about another consequence.
Because as long as Guo Bao knew that the person sent by the Metropolitan Procuratorate this time was the superintendent of Guangdong Province, he would definitely cooperate wholeheartedly. However, as long as there is a problem on this trip, Wang Jiguang and Guo Bao will fold in together, which means that he has made two loss-making transactions in a row!
After such a thought flashed in Wang Fulin's heart, he said in an accentuated tone: "In the territory of Beizhili, from Jingshi to Shanhaiguan, it is a post road that has been used from the beginning of the Ming Dynasty to the present, and some merchants often take Tianjin to Beitang, Kaiping Zhongtunwei, Luanzhou, Changli, Shanhaiguan, this thoroughfare road that passes through many cities is not the same, and most of the places it passes through are post stations. I'll give you one more person, you take him, and when you pass by Jizhou Yuyang Station, let him send a letter to Qi Dashuai of Jizhen Town, Santun Ying. ”
Seeing that Wang Jiguang just thought about it for a while, he didn't ask anything, and agreed directly, but Wang Fulin further explained: "Since Guangmao and Cheng Naixuan have already gone to Liaodong, they naturally say that the imperial court has doubts about that great victory, Li Chengliang is the wisest person, and he should know that at this time, instead of covering the lid, it is better to explain things clearly. But if it is the person you want to escort, but after you take over in Shanhaiguan, there is a problem within the scope of Jizhen, how many parties do you think will be involved? ”
After Wang Jiguang once did stupid things, he is no longer blinded by interests, and he is naturally much smarter. thought that if he had traveled all the way, but he couldn't bring the person back completely, he would definitely be lowered in evaluation when the time came, but the question in his heart still couldn't be held back after all: "However, wouldn't it be better to bring this person to the capital alive and expose Tao Chengyu in public as killing and surrendering?" Why does the master think that someone will intercept and kill in the second half of the entry? ”
"Before entering the customs, it was all in Liaodong, if there was a problem, it was not Li Chengliang's fault, but also Li Chengliang's fault, so Li Chengliang personally sent troops to escort him, and there would never be a mistake. And once he enters the customs, if this person arrives in the capital in a good manner, there is another possibility, that is, when he tells the so-called truth, there are people in the court, such as Gonggong Feng, such as Lord Shoufu, such as those Shangshu Shilang of the Six Ministries, and we all inspect the general constitution and the constitution, but they don't believe that set of rhetoric. After all, what about the physical evidence to prove that he and those dead Chahaner tribesmen really stole the cattle and horses of the Tuban Khan, and wanted to surrender? What about witnesses? Since letting such a guy go to the Beijing Division may also be questioned, or even thrown aside and abandoned, can sending a living mouth make Li Chengliang unlucky, or is it easier to make Li Chengliang unlucky if he dies after entering the customs? ”
Wang Jiguang only felt that his heart sank, but the next moment, he heard Wang Fulin ask again: "I already know that this trip may not be so peaceful, do you dare to go?" ”
If Wang Fulin directly said that this trip might be dangerous at the beginning, Wang Jiguang might hesitate, but at this moment, he has listened to Wang Fulin analyze the various interests clearly, knows the risks, but knows that this is also a great opportunity for himself to become famous, if Wang Fulin thought of Gu Yuncheng or Wang Xuezeng because he was sick before, he would not have this opportunity!
So, he immediately replied awe-inspiringly: "Master Zhangdao, since you dare to recommend me, I naturally dare to go." Don't worry, I will definitely bring your letter to Qi Dashuai. ”
As long as Qi Jiguang is willing to send someone to escort him, what is he afraid of? That's the invincible Qi family army in the world!
"Very good, you prepare immediately, and I will go and report back to Lord Chief."
Because he had already gone to the two military departments before, Zhang Juzheng named someone from the Metropolitan Procuratorate this time, and the first thing that came to mind was Wang Fulin. But think about it again, this is just an errand to pick up people in Shanhaiguan, and to let Wang Fulin, who can be said to be his right-hand man and already in charge of the imperial history, come out, which is really a bit of a waste of talent, so he signaled Wang Fulin to recommend someone. When he heard that it was Wang Jiguang, he still didn't understand it a little, but since Wang Fulin guaranteed that Wang Jiguang was competent, he reported the letter to the general of suspicion, and soon the cabinet voted to draft it, and the reply from the celebrant came down.
It's right!
Although I don't know if it's because of the person recommended by Wang Fulin, the top of the party only agreed, or Wang Jiguang's person Zhang Juzheng and Feng Bao were very satisfied, but Chen Wei didn't think much about it, and quickly summoned Wang Jiguang in person and gave a good order. Especially for the entourage of Jinyiwei, he was much more nervous than Wang Fulin's indifferent attitude, and repeatedly told Wang Jiguang to be cautious and not to conflict with Jinyiwei's people, and even hinted that it was better to let these people rush ahead in case of trouble...... So much so that when Wang Jiguang retired and left the main hall of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, he had to try his best to hide his disdain.
Wang Fulin is in charge of the imperial history, and he doesn't care about Jinyiwei, you Chen Wei is the imperial history of Zuodu, and you are still afraid of the conflict between the imperial history and Jinyiwei?
On this night, Chen Liang hurriedly sent a message from Wang Fulin to Guo Bao, who was about to leave tomorrow. When he heard Wang Fulin's instructions, saying that after meeting people at Shanhaiguan, he must not be in a hurry to escort people into the customs, but must be careful of all kinds of emergencies, and wait for Jizhen to send soldiers and horses to escort them, and then go together, Guo Bao couldn't help but be surprised.
Even if it is really a killing and surrendering, Li Chengliang is also a punishment for negligence, and everyone knows that Liaodong is inseparable from Li Chengliang, Zhang Juzheng also has great trust in this Liaodong general soldier, and Tao Chengyu is just a general, if he wants to kill people and destroy his mouth, he will do it in Liaodong, and he will wait until he enters Shanhaiguan to make a move?
However, he quickly figured it out.
Just like the handsome man of Jinyiwei dared to install nails in Wang Fulin's house, how could it be impossible for a moth to appear on this road? (To be continued.) )
