Chapter 46: Rebuke
Zheng Zhen's face turned red with anger at that time, thinking that although he was not as good as a great literati like Zhen Dexiu and Wei Liaoweng, at least in the government and the opposition, he was also a famous Wenchen, who wrote a good poem and has always been praised, but today he came to see Gao Huaiyuan, but he had to suffer such an insult, even if Zheng Huaiyuan was choked enough.

But Zheng Zheng didn't dare to attack, or walked away, because he also knew that Gao Huaiyuan couldn't be provoked at the moment, and Gao Huaiyuan came to Sichuan to quell the chaos in the name of Du Chengzhi this time, and his official rank was also a lot higher than him, and now he is crushed to death by the first level of the official! Even if Gao Huaiyuan deliberately insulted him, he didn't dare to take Gao Huaiyuan seriously!
So Zheng Zheng suppressed his anger, dusted off his official uniform, and praised in his mouth: Zheng Zheng, the lowly Sichuan system, came to meet Lord Du Chengzhi!
Just like that, Zheng Zheng kept repeating this sentence along the way, and only then did he enter the lobby under the gaze of two lines of capable soldiers, and such a short walk of dozens of steps, for Zheng Zheng, it seemed to be such a long way, coupled with the forced eyes of the guards on both sides, he was even more frightened, and before he walked to the door of the lobby, he felt that his legs were weak and sweaty.
Who's coming? Gao Huaiyuan sat in the lobby at all, didn't get up at all, just watched Zheng Yan cautiously step into the lobby, then dropped the battle report in his hand, squinted and looked at the Sichuan envoy in front of him, only to see that Zheng Zheng was about forty or fifty years old, but he was born with a dignified appearance, and three strands of long hair hung down on a white face, which also looked very elegant, but he still didn't have a good impression of Zheng Zheng, and he didn't hear Zheng Zheng sign up, and asked again.
Zheng is so angry! He finally understood that Gao Huaiyuan was destined to deliberately get along with him today, so he held back his anger, knelt down and said to Gao Huaiyuan: Zheng Zheng, the lowly Sichuan system, see Lord Du Chengzhi!
Gao Huaiyuan had a disdainful smile on his face, looked at Zheng Zheng who was kneeling under the hall with cold eyes, and said with a sneer: I'm afraid that you are no longer the Sichuan envoy, before this official came to Lizhou Road, the saint personally issued an order to demote you to the deputy envoy of Sichuan, as for the future? It's hard to say for the time being! Rise up first and answer!
Zheng Zhen's heart was half cold when he heard it, as soon as they met, he became a deputy envoy, and he had been abducted by one level, but he didn't dare not listen, and he had to kneel down and kowtow a few times, saying thank the lord Longen, because since Gao Huaiyuan said so, then with Gao Huaiyuan's identity as a capital promise, he is the emperor on behalf of the emperor, and he is considered a minister, so he has to thank the emperor.
After Gao Huaiyuan watched Zheng Zhen knock on the emperor's grace, he stood up tremblingly, and then asked Zheng Zhen: Lord Zheng, do you know what mistakes you have made?
Zheng Zhen was shocked again, and heard that Gao Huaiyuan asked him to come to Bazhou this time, making it clear that he was going to ask him for his guilt! So after he pondered for a while, he bowed his head and hugged his fist to Gao Huaiyuan: The lower official is guilty, because the lower official is not handling it effectively, so that the little traitor actually made such a fuss, this is the fault of the lower official! Please punish your lordship!
Gao Huaiyuan sneered and said: Is this the only one? In addition, can't you think of Master Zheng, is there anything wrong?
Zheng Zheng was stunned for a moment, and finally couldn't suppress the anger in his heart, raised his head and looked directly at Gao Huaiyuan and said angrily: Although the lower official is at fault, but after all, the lower official is still the minister of the imperial court, I think that you are my boss, so I am so polite to you, but the adult is so step-by-step, don't you think it is too much?
Gao Huanyuan was also immediately furious, slammed the table with a bang, and made a loud noise, which startled Zheng Zheng and made a cold shiver.
Hum! Lord Zheng, you are such a great official! The Holy Emperor of the Imperial Court sent you to take care of the military and political affairs of Sichuan, but you have managed it to such a point, you are still aggressive, let me ask you, what kind of face do you have to repay the Holy Lord's trust in you?
The mutiny launched by a small commander, you actually handled it to such a point, so that they almost swept the entire road of Lizhou, conquered the state capital and county town one after another, and how much loss did the people suffer for it, how many people were killed by the rebels, and how much property was looted? Do you think about any of this?
As a military and political officer in a place, what have you done in the past year or so? Have you followed the instructions issued by the imperial court? Have you ever followed the instructions issued by the Privy Council and passed them on to the local governors?
Now I want to ask you, what else is wrong with you! You started to lose your temper first, don't you know how much damage you've brought to the local area? Since Gao Huaiyuan became an official, he had never treated a person with an official rank lower than him like this, but today, he broke out uncontrollably, pointing at Zheng Zhen and reprimanding.
Zheng Huaiyuan was also trembling angrily, in his eyes, Gao Huaiyuan was just a milky guy, and he was once a dignified bachelor, but he was reprimanded by Gao Huaiyuan like this, so he trembled and said to Gao Huaiyuan: It is indeed true, Zheng did not handle this military rebellion well, but how could I have delayed the major military affairs as you said?
Gao Huaiyuan saw that he was still obsessed, so he directly questioned him: It seems that Master Zheng still doesn't give up! Gao's words have come to this point, and you are still obsessed, so this official will make his words clearer!
A few years ago, the imperial court had issued an order to abolish redundant soldiers in various places, and you did this right, but at the same time, the imperial court also issued an order to expand the regular soldiers of the local capital division, and explicitly ordered the compilation of the military generals of the capital division, and when the official passed through Jinzhou this time, he saw that the Jinzhou Metropolitan Division was in charge of Chen Yu, and Chen Yu as the commander of the metropolitan division, but he didn't know about it at all, so that his Jinzhou Metropolitan Division, so far the number of personnel is only 12,000 people, according to the original number of the imperial court, the Jinzhou Metropolitan Division is set at 30,000 people, Why don't you pass it on?
And let me ask you, the Privy Council has decreed a few years ago that all the courts should be transferred to the jurisdiction of the Ministry of War, and the land under your jurisdiction has not advanced this matter, why is this?
Moreover, the imperial court abolished redundant troops this time, although you vigorously promoted it, but some redundant soldiers that should not be eliminated were also included in the list of reductions, and the soldiers of Bazhou were not among the reductions, but they were the first to be cut, so that the rebels attacked Bazhou, and there was no garrison to defend here, so that Bazhou should not have been captured by the rebels so easily, but because of your mistakes, it was captured by the rebels!
As a military and political officer in a place, I don't care about how you deal with local government affairs for the time being, just don't repair military equipment, so that a small military rebellion has developed to such an uncontrollable point, until I let this official lead the army to come, and then what is the use of the imperial court to keep an official like you? Could it be that the official is wrong?
Gao Huaiyuan glared at Zheng Yi and questioned him one by one.
After Zheng Yan heard this, the sweat on his forehead suddenly flowed, because the few true notes that Gao Huaiyuan questioned him knocked on his numb bones, making him unable to answer.
Zheng Zheng is very supportive of the matter of dismantling local redundant troops, because after he went to Sichuan to take up his post, he also felt that the messy new army and box soldiers in various places were really useless, and even the government soldiers in some places would only eat dry rice and have no effect, so he was indeed very active in the matter of reducing redundant troops, and even transferred these people to Jingdong Tuntian's road fare, he also deducted some of them, which made some redundant soldiers very dissatisfied, which was also an introduction to Zhang Tong's rebellion this time.
In his eyes, first, now that the Song and Jin dynasties have stopped, there is no need to expand the soldiers and horses of these metropolitan commanders, not to mention that it will cost too much money, and secondly, it may also make those officers of the metropolitan division become more powerful because of the increase in troops, so that they may not be able to lose their tails in the future and not listen to his call as a control envoy.
Therefore, when the imperial court issued an order to expand the army of the capital commander, he put this will on the shelf, and simply did not even issue it to the capital commanders, until the soldiers made a big mess, he realized that he was obviously too optimistic to do so, and the result was that he called the soldiers and horses of the three capital commanders to suppress the rebels, not only did not kill the rebels, but all the commanders also suffered defeats, and he felt that it was a wrong thing not to listen to the orders of the imperial court.
As for the affairs of the Duzuoyuan, he was even more unwilling, because the Duzuoyuan was a fertile land, and a lot of money had to be invested there every year, and eventually some of this money would flow into the pockets of these officials, so he simply ignored the military department's request to supervise the affairs of the Duzuoyuan in various places and shelved it.
Didn t think about these things, gao huaiyuan already knew it, and zheng xiao, who asked, really had nothing to say, and on the spot zheng zheng wei opened his mouth and said: this subordinate is so busy this time that some things have been forgotten, so
What a busy one! Are you busier than me, Lord Zheng? Such a military event, you actually forgot about it, and you want to shirk it? This Lizhou rebellion can be said to be all because of you, you still dare to think that the official scolded you, think about it, what have you done, come see me again!
Let me ask you again, now that the Mongol army is about to destroy the Western Xia, have you ever noticed what the current actions of its army are? Lizhou is my gateway to the northwest, but your armament here is so lax, if one day, the army of the foreign domain invades, what will you use to defend against the enemy?
Gao Huaiyuan's face was gloomy as if he was about to drip, and he reprimanded Zheng Cheng mercilessly.
