Chapter 373: Lobbyist

Qiu Jun said that this was naturally not without purpose, combined with Yang Tinghe's statement and his own inquired about the market language, he had his own decision in his heart.

This is a rare smart person in the Ming Dynasty so far, upright and fair.

He doesn't do anything that embarrasses himself, and he doesn't do anything that embarrass others. Since he said that he was willing to persuade Zhang Ru, he naturally had his certainty.

After listening to his reasons for not being reasonable, Zhu Youzhu nodded reluctantly: "Okay, whether you can persuade Zhang Wenxuan to go on the expedition depends on Mr." ”

Qiu Jun arched his hand and said: "The minister will not fail in his mission." ”

After the few people with their own concerns dispersed, Xie Qian caught up with Qiu Jun, who was in a hurry, and asked in a roundabout way, "Brother Zhongshen, are you really sure of this?" ”

Qiu Jun smiled faintly: "Have you seen that I have done something that I am not sure of?" ”

"I've never seen this, I don't know if I can tell you a thing or two." Xie Qian put on a posture of humbly seeking advice.

Qiu Jun was born in the nineteenth year of Yongle, more than 20 years older than Xie Qian.

He still likes Xie Qian, a young man, very much, but he always feels that Xie Qian is more upright and less soft. In officialdom, if this is the case, it is easy to fall victim to political struggle.

This time Xie Qian asked for advice, and he decided to knock Xie Qian well, so he said: "Yu Qiao, do you know why His Majesty has always been gentle towards you?" ”

Xie Qian shook his head a little dazedly.

Qiu Jun said: "In the matter of Dingbian Hou, many upright people in the court sighed for Zhang Wenxuan, feeling that the Ming Dynasty is missing Zhang Wenxuan, and the mainstay is missing. Among them, you Xie Yuqiao is the most prominent.

However, not only did Your Majesty not hold you accountable, but even ignored you, did you think of anything other than your status as a member of the Cabinet? ”

"What do you mean" Xie Qian carefully chewed Qiu Jun's words in his heart, and after that, he suddenly spoke faster: "You mean that Your Majesty doesn't mean to let Zhang Wenxuan sit on the cold bench at all, the ups and downs of the court these days are completely a conspiracy!" ”

Qiu Jun smiled and made a silent gesture: "You can only understand, not speak." ”

Xie Qian was stunned and sighed: "It seems that playing this kind of conspiracy, I am indeed not the opponent of these young people. ”

Qiu Jun said: "Okay, you can think slowly by yourself!" I still have to ask Dingbian Hou to come out again, and I guess I will waste a lot of saliva this time. ”

With that, he strode away.

After leaving the palace, he directly called his palanquin man and carried him to the Dingbian Marquis' Mansion.

Zhang Ru, who had been idle for a long time, danced and wrote at home, and had a lot of fun, he was so bored that he taught his horse colleagues to write at the same time, and also taught the cook Lao Jiu to read and write.

When Qiu Jun arrived, it happened to be a meal, and Zhang Ru was drinking a small wine with a side dish, and the whole person looked very comfortable.

Knowing that Qiu Jun was visiting, Zhang Ru asked the old master to come in without thinking about it. He really didn't dare to Qiu Jun, because he felt that there were only a few old masters in the entire Ming Dynasty Hall who were really worthy of his respect, and Qiu Jun was undoubtedly the most respectable.

"Tut, look at this little day, it's enough to moisturize." As soon as Qiu Jun entered the door, he smiled and sighed.

Once upon a time, he was extremely envious of this kind of life, but later I was poor and had no choice but to go into politics.

Zhang Ru was very rude and pointed to the dishes on the table with his chopsticks: "Oh, rare guests, come on, sit down and eat together." ”

Qiu Jun shook his head and said, "Where do I have time to eat now!" I'm so busy that I can't turn my head. It's still Master Hou, you're comfortable! ”

Zhang Ru immediately corrected: "Don't talk nonsense, the grass people are just an idle person now, not the marquis of the imperial court." If you let someone who cares hear it, you can't take back my great house. ”

Qiu Jun said with a smile: "Don't be modest, this one acre and three points of land in the capital, if you don't nod, who dares to take your house." If you weren't for the Hou Ye, the four big characters of the Dingbian Hou Mansion at your door, why haven't anyone taken them away until now. ”

Zhang Ru said with a bitter face: "Lord Shoufu has wronged Wenxuan, and I didn't hang this plaque, since I didn't watch it, I naturally don't have the obligation to take off the plaque." You say I'm a rich man with a little money, as for using that brand as a tiger skin? ”

"Okay Wenxuan, you should know the old man's intention this time, the old man wants you to say a word, go or not." Qiu Jun got straight to the point.

Zhang Ru said vaguely: "You can ask me if you say this, what are you talking about?" Could it be that you are old and rejuvenated, and you want Wenxuan to drink your wedding wine? ”

"Stinky boy, don't talk nonsense to the old man, you know better than anyone what the old man said." Qiu Jun feigned anger.

Zhang Ru smiled bitterly: "My Lord Shoufu, aren't you embarrassing me." Now I am a white body, and I don't eat the court's food, and I don't use the court's things. You big people said lightly, saying that if I want to lead the troops to the battle, I will lead the troops to the battle, what is the matter!

Besides, you don't know, my old Zhang family is a single seedling for me, the current situation in Datong is very unclear, if the kid has something in Datong with three long and two short, so that my old Zhang family has broken its roots, what face do you have to go to see the ancestors of the Zhang family after you call me dead! ”

"Bastard boy, Cui Gong will teach you such a lazy boy." Qiu Jun held his forehead with his hand, and said with a headache.

Zhang Ru smiled and said, "No, no, no, my teacher also taught His Majesty." ”

"Okay, okay, I won't talk nonsense with you, whether you go or not. If you don't go, the old man will announce your affair with His Majesty to the world tomorrow. The old man has been an official for so many years, and there is nothing else, but there are many protΓ©gΓ©s. Qiu Jun threatened.

Zhang Ru was stunned for a moment and asked, "What is the matter?" ”

Qiu Jun smiled predictively: "Don't take everyone for fools, at least there is such an understanding person as the old man in the court."

Do you dare to say that this Datong emergency has nothing to do with you? Do you dare to say that the little rabbit cub of Ma Wensheng's family dared to hide in Datong City with elite soldiers and not go out, all because there were too many Tatar people? Do you dare to say that the little prince of Tatar, who has lived in your house for several years, brazenly launched an attack on the Ming Dynasty when the vitality of the Tatars has not recovered, not for the sake of your title being taken away?

What is the purpose of Your Majesty to leave the plaque of your Dingbian Marquis' Mansion, I don't think the old man needs to say it!

Besides, the relationship between you and Your Majesty is not at all comparable to ordinary feelings, and your previous relationship will suddenly become estranged because of a few civil official attacks?

It's fun to play all the courtiers like fools!

Poor Li Min's elm pimple and the people behind him were carried away by the victory, and they didn't even have the most basic judgment, and they thought they had brought you down. ”

Zhang Ru touched his nose a little embarrassed: "Old master, how can you learn to talk about it." ”

Qiu Jun smiled: "Is the old man talking about it, don't you know?" ”

His eyes were firmly fixed on Zhang Ru, taking in all of Zhang Ru's unnatural movements and expressions. Ordinary people can't see Zhang Ru's small actions, and only this kind of old and refined guy can find clues from the subtleties.

"Alright! You won, can you tell me how you know. Zhang Ru smiled bitterly.

Qiu Jun looked mysterious: "Mountain people have their own clever plans. ”

Zhang Ru threatened: "If you don't say it, I won't go." ”

"You can't get to Datong if you don't go." Qiu Jun said firmly.

Zhang Ru was defeated again: "Ask Mr. to teach me." ”

Qiu Jun tilted his head and said, "Well, this is good!" If it weren't for His Majesty saying that he had a closed door with you, the old man would not be sure that the two of you were making a show. ”

"It turns out that this flaw was revealed by ourselves." Zhang Ru sighed and said, "Okay! I agreed to your old request, but the kid was still puzzled for a while, why did Qiu Lao persuade me to go on the expedition knowing that the danger of Datong would not harm the national body? ”

Qiu Jun said very seriously: "Yes, the danger of Datong has nothing to do with the national system, but it has to do with the people's hearts. The chaos of the Datong White Lotus Sect is not something you can control at all. That little prince of Tartary has a good relationship with you, but who knows if your plan is in his plan? Everything the old man did was just in case. ”

Zhang Ru nodded and said, "It's the kid's mistake." ”

Qiu Jun said: "No, you're not wrong. You did this to avoid turmoil as soon as the sea ban was opened, and your original intention was for the sake of the Ming Dynasty. If it weren't for the good show of you and Your Majesty, I'm afraid they wouldn't have come out so soon. The old man should thank you and Your Majesty for being you, the hope of the Ming Dynasty that the old man can see. ”

In the Chenghua Dynasty, Qiu Jun's book can be counted with one hand, and it has only been three years since the Hongzhi Dynasty, and Qiu Jun's book can be described as piled up. It can be seen that Qiu Jun is not inaction, but to see what the emperor does.

Whether it is a poor toss or a rich toss, Zhang Ru's toss is in the arms of Old Master Qiu.

Zhang Ru smiled and frowned: "If the kid told the old master that the Datong border army was in a hurry and Ma Xuan led the troops to hide in Datong City, it wasn't the kid's instructions, I don't know if the old master believes it." ”

"What?" Qiu Jun lost his voice and said, "What you said is true? ”

Zhang Ru nodded helplessly, he didn't expect that he directed and acted in a good show in the capital, which would make Tu Hu on the grassland and Ma Xuan in Datong make such a big mess.

He didn't tell them beforehand, because he thought they would be able to hold back.

Now, he only hopes that Zhu Youzhu can still trust him.

Qiu Jun's face changed greatly, and he stood up and bowed deeply to Zhang Ru: "Wenxuan, gather all the people tomorrow and hit the road immediately!" The grain and grass have already been prepared, and you have arrived on the road, and you can lead the army at a gallop, and you can bring people over from the twelve regiments and camps. ”

Zhang Ru nodded with a heavy face: "Don't worry, old master, Wen Xuan will give an explanation to Your Majesty and the imperial court." ”
