Chapter 3 This is a royal business
When Yue Su read the booklet, the change in his face was clear to Cao Huachun. He could feel that the contents of this booklet seemed to be very relevant.
Before he opened it, he carefully measured the cover, and felt that there was no clue, so he carefully turned the first page. Seeing the content on the first page, Cao Huachun's body couldn't help but shake, and his face became solemn.
Turning the pages one by one, until the last night, Cao Huachun said in a low voice: "My lord, it seems that the Hun Sen you said is not simple, this booklet is clearly jade." ”
The so-called jade, to put it bluntly, is the genealogy of the emperor's family.
Yue Su nodded and said, "It seems to be exactly like that." The father-in-law is from the palace, and he should be able to see some ways on this pseudo-jade. ”
"How to say it, from the name above, you can indeed see the identity of this Hun Sen, he should be the descendant of Zhu Gaoxu, the second son of Emperor Chengzu, Zhu Gaochu rebelled that year, and was banned all over the house, and was later killed by Emperor Xuanzong. It's just that I haven't heard that there are still alive, this is an internal matter of the clan, we want to ask, there is no right yet, what do you think? Cao Huachun said with a smile.
"That's right. Now that the Dragon Slaying Gang has been destroyed, we have done what a courtier should do. The governor and others will write down all the beginning and end of the suppression of bandits, and listen to Chen Tian. The father-in-law is here, in fact, it is the best, this recital, after the preparation of the suspension, will be handed over to the father-in-law, and the father-in-law will help transfer it to His Majesty. So as not to make any mistakes halfway. Yue Su said.
"It's your duty." Cao Huachun nodded and said.
"By the way, father-in-law, weren't you ordered to investigate the case of Uncle Guo, the whole story of that case. The Governor has already found out that it was all done by the Dragon Slaying Gang, intending to blame the Governor. Here's the thing...... "At the moment of Yue Su, Zhang Zhongxin's case was detailed from beginning to end. Although there is no conclusive evidence. Only Hun Sen's personal admit, and Hun Sen is also dead, but Yue Su believes that the Queen Mother will also believe in himself if he uses himself as bait to destroy the Dragon Slaying Gang. Besides, there are two more bodies of Hun Sen, which show this one. The Queen Mother should know what was going on.
After Cao Huachun heard it, he nodded again and again. Of course he believed Yue Su, because Zhang Zhongxin was clearly being used, first sending a secret letter, and then being killed, isn't this just a bureau.
Next, Yue Su settled Cao Huachun in the mansion, and he was busy. There are too many aftermath matters. Hongfu's family property had to be transported to Beijing because the amount was too large and the distance was too long. Be sure to send heavy troops to escort it. Pei Xuan was injured, so naturally he couldn't let him go, but Yue Su handed over the matter to him and asked him to select generals, arrange the army, and be responsible for escorting.
The rich family in Huzhou, Yue Su did not raid his house one by one, and he did many evil things. Fang copied the family and beheaded it, and the family property was sent to Beijing. And not many bad things are done. There is no big case, Yue Su will punish 10,000 taels of silver as a warning.
Yue Su wrote a notebook, and wrote all the experiences of the bandits in detail. Zhang Zhongxin's case naturally had to be explained, in order to lure the snake out of the hole and cause losses to the sailor, Yue Su did not hide it. The names and merits of the meritorious soldiers have not been omitted, and they are all written in detail, and those who are alive are invited to be praised by the imperial court, and those who are killed in battle are also asked to be compensated by the imperial court at a preferential price. Yue Su even boldly wrote the amount of the bereavement pension, two hundred taels per person. This is a large number, there are not a few soldiers who died in this battle, there are already more than a thousand, and a thousand people are 200,000 taels of silver. However, compared with Lord Yue's income from the seizure of the house, it is simply a matter of nine percent.
Yue Su also ordered the two corpses of Hun Sen to be brought on the road together, and the bodies of the main criminals were also brought along.
A few days later, everything was arranged, led by Cao Huachun and a deputy general from Zhejiang, with everything in charge, and rushed to Beijing.
After saying nothing, Cao Huachun arrived in Beijing two months later. He went directly into the Forbidden City and presented Yue Su's recital to the Queen Mother.
Huzhou affairs, in fact, Zhang Yan already knows something, Dongchang has sent spies all over the country, how can such a big thing not be reported immediately. They travel lightly, of course, the speed is fast, it can be said that the current Zhang Yan is actually waiting for Lord Yue's excerpt.
In Cining Palace, Zhang Yan watched the folds and sighed for a long time, and she didn't know how to say it for a while. Zhang Yan was extremely moved by Yue Su's personal involvement in danger, leading the enemy to dispatch, and exterminating the rebels. Regarding Zhang Zhongxin's death, Zhang Yan is now relieved, he believes that Yue Su is innocent and framed.
However, how can we reply to Yue Su's twist and turn now?
Commended and transferred back to Beijing. Zhang Yan said honestly, she was really a little reluctant. Why? No one likes to slap their mouths, when Yue Su wanted to come back and go to Shaanxi to suppress bandits, she didn't approve it, but sent Yue Su away from Fujian and Zhejiang, this border place. As a result, Yue Su did not complain, first exterminated the pirates, then recovered Taiwan and Penghu, and finally exterminated the traitors of the Dragon Slaying Gang. It's just that the credit is too great, but it makes people even more jealous, this is going back, the court can't become his hall, how can he, the queen mother, and his young son still have the right to speak. The entire Daming country, hasn't it become his Yuesu.
But if you don't let him come back, how can you reply, do you just say, you did a good job, continue to work over there, and reward another title, and that's it. Isn't it a little chilling?
Zhang Yan was in a dilemma, and she wanted to transfer Yue Su back, but she didn't want to transfer Yue Su back. At this juncture, there was a rumor from a eunuch outside, saying that the master of ceremonies, Zou Gonggong, asked to see him.
At this hour, Zou Yi came over, it must have been a send-off, Zhang Yan just didn't want to study Yue Su's affairs, so she ordered Zou Yi to come in. She didn't let Cao Huachun go, but just told him to stand on the side.
After a while, Zou Yi walked in with a piece of music, and as soon as he entered the door, he saw Cao Huachun standing on the side. However, he didn't see it at all, so he gave the Queen Mother a salute first, and then said: "The Queen Mother, I will go to Sichuan to send an urgent twist, and please ask the Queen Mother to take a look." ”
"Bring it in." After Zhang Yan finished speaking, a eunuch stepped forward, took the fold from Zou Yi's hand, and presented it to Zhang Yan.
Zhang Yan took it and took a look.
The content of the recital is like this, the governor of Sichuan, Zhu Xieyuan, asked my lord to live Sheng'an today, and Wang Jiayin, the leader of the bandits, rushed into Sichuan, attacked the city and plundered the land, and looted the place, which was very arrogant. Yang Jin, the chief soldier, led his troops to conquer and suppress, but unexpectedly, the rebels were strong, and Yang Jin was defeated and surrounded, and committed suicide. Now the whole territory of Baoning Mansion has fallen, most of the people are rebellious, and now the Liukou has driven straight into Mianzhou, and asked His Majesty to send troops to help Sichuan as soon as possible.
After reading this recital, Zhang Yan was shocked, the rogue ran around, stirring up the entire northwest is a mess, but she didn't expect that now she will run to Sichuan again. How is this good?
She took a look, and the advice given by the cabinet below was to quickly send generals to fill the position of the Sichuan general army, and ordered Zhu Xieyuan to hold on to help.
Zhang Yan thinks that it should be like this, but the position of the replacement general soldier is not written below, and he doesn't know who can fight and who can't fight. But things happened by coincidence, what happened? It turned out that three days ago, the deputy general of Dengzhou was vacant, and the deputy general and the general army were all important positions, and they needed to be drawn up by the military department and reported to the emperor for approval. The person reported by the Ministry of War was the commander of the Jinyi Guard Luo Sigong, Luo Sigong's performance, Zhang Yan also took a look, and the above description of this person can be described as a smallpox pendant, what martial arts are strong, resourceful, like Qin Shubao is alive.
This person's name is Qiao Wushou, who used to be a thousand households in Tianjin, and Zhang Yan didn't know what he was capable of, but Luo Sigong was also a person close to her, since he was the one who was promoted, Zhang Yan also believed it, and allowed Qiao Wushou to take over as the deputy general of Dengzhou.
Now it happens that there is a vacancy in the general army of Sichuan, and there is no suggestion on the excerpt who to let fill the vacancy, so Zhang Yan immediately thought of this Qiao Wushou who had just been promoted. Now that the imperial court is employing people, it is no longer necessary to stick to the past. So, Zhang Yan suddenly asked: "Zou Yi, what do you think of the Liu Wushou that Luo Sigong raised that day?" ”
Zou Yi is an old fox, he immediately understood what Zhang Yan meant, this is the Queen Mother wants to promote Liu Wushou as the chief soldier of Sichuan. Liu Wushou's ability, Zou Yi knows, even if he has the ability to fart, Luo Sigong can protect him, all because this guy is Luo Sigong's brother-in-law. But even if Zou Yi knew, he couldn't tell the Queen Mother deeply, after all, Luo Sigong was also a person with status, and the Queen Mother was still more serious, and telling the truth was too inappropriate. Therefore, he just nodded and said: "Liu Wushou is guaranteed by Lord Luo and approved by the Ministry of War, so it shouldn't be bad." ”
"The mourning family also thinks so, so let's do it, isn't there a vacancy in the Sichuan general army now, you go to the cabinet to discuss it and see if you can promote Liu Wushou to be the Sichuan general soldier, the imperial court is the time to employ people, and anyone who has the ability can be promoted exceptionally." Zhang Yan said.
"Yes, the old slave obeys." Zou Yi hurriedly bowed down and agreed.
"By the way, there is one more thing, Cao Huachun came back from the south, and brought Yue Su's fold back by the way, this fold has not gone through the cabinet, and you will make up for it later, get it to the cabinet, and let them all take a look. By the way, prepare a reply, and then show the mourners. Zhang Yan said.
She's tactful, kicking the ball to the cabinet first, seeing what your cabinet means, and then making a decision for herself. However, this is in normal order, and no one can say anything.
Then, she handed Yue Su's fold and Zhu Xieyuan's fold to the palace maid beside her and asked her to hand it over to Zou Yi.
However, Zhang Yan's move did not hide from the old and spicy Cao Huachun at all, Cao Huachun immediately understood that this was because the Queen Mother didn't want Yue Su to come back, otherwise, what would she do so hard. It seems that there will definitely be some movement in the DPRK situation in the past few days.
