Chapter 6: The Prophet of Doubt?

The woman in the house was polite and graceful, and she invited Yue Su into the room, but for a while, Lord Yue was a little confused.

The person who passed the book on the arrow couldn't be this woman, there must be another assistant in this, but what is the purpose of the other party?

Yue Su hesitated, but still arched his hand, and said, "Since the girl is kind to invite, then Yue is disrespectful." With that, he strode to the room.

Tie Qiu and Li Haoquan also felt a little strange, and followed in together, and the maid at the door did not stop them, but took the door lightly.

Yue Su took a few steps forward, and when he was still three steps away from the table, he stopped and said, "I wonder how the girl knew that Yue would be here today?" ”

"Woman Qin Xin meets Master Yue." The woman didn't have a horse to answer, so she gave a big salute first, and then said: "It's not that the woman knows that the adult will be here today, but that there is a prince who will definitely come within a day or two, so let the woman pay close attention." ”

"Oh?" Yue Su's heart sank, and he asked, "Which son is it?" ”

"This boy is waiting for you in the inner room." Qin Xin said softly.

Her room is a suite, the outside is a hall, and the inside is a bedroom, Yue Su glanced at the bedroom, Li Haoquan immediately understood, came to the door with an arrow, stretched out his hand to push the door open, and then put his palms on the point, and put on a posture.

There was a bed in the bedroom, a table in the center, two chairs, one of which sat a young man in white, this young man was none other than Jiang Jie. Jiang Jie's face was filled with a warm smile, and he was holding a black paper fan in his palm, his eyes were looking outside, and he said with a smile: "Lord Yue doesn't need to be like a great enemy, this place is the next person." ”

"Haoquan, you step back first."

Li Haoquan bowed and retreated to the side, Yue Su raised his eyes, and saw that Jiang Jie in the room had a good appearance and a lofty appearance, and he was quite satisfied with the address and said, "I don't know why this gentleman has a big name, why he wants Yue to come here." ”

"Lord Yue, surnamed Jiang Mingjie, a native of Qingzhou, Shandong, because his ancestors made meritorious contributions at the time of Jingjing, he was a hereditary general of martial arts and a thousand households in Qingzhou." Jiang Jie stood up, clenched his fists and said: "My lord is here, what is the matter, it was written very clearly in the letter the day before yesterday. Now Shandong is big, but with the goal of leveling the enemy and governing the world, but there is nowhere to show the ideals, today I would like to dedicate this policy to the adults, as a capital for promotion. ”

Jiang Jie is a brute bachelor, and his words are not minuted at all, and he is straightforward with his intentions.

Yue Su also likes these people, and said: "Yue Mou has always been thirsty for talents, and if Mr. has the ability to rule the world in peace, Yue Su must recommend it to the saint." ”

In this way, Jiang Mou has thanked the adults in advance. Can you come in? Jiang Jie said with a smile.

"Okay." Yue Su walked inside with his hands in his hands, Tie Qiu and Li Haoquan wanted to follow inside, Yue Su waved his hand at them, and only let the two of them stay outside.

Jiang Jie didn't expect Yue Su to enter the room alone, but seeing that he had such a mind, he admired him more and more, and said, "Qin'er, you play a tune for the two of you, and I will talk to Lord Yue in the house." ”

"Yes, Childe." Qin Xin promised, and then stroked Yaoqin, and the sound of the piano was round and melodious.

Tie Qiu and Li Haoquan did not close the door of the inner room, and watched inside while listening to the piano. These two are both big bosses, and they really don't have a cold interest in this way of the piano.

Yue Su entered the inner room and sat down across the table with Jiang Jie, Jiang Jie picked up the teapot on the table, poured two cups of tea politely, and said: "Shandong Sect Bandits, because most of the civil and military officials in the place have been escorted to Beijing, and the new officials have not served as new officials, and the people are panicked and unable to resist the bandits, so the White Lotus Sect is so arrogant. Among them, of course, there are also the mistakes of adults, and I don't know what to do. ”

"Sir's right." Yue Su said.

"Looking at the current situation, the imperial court should dispatch good generals to Shandong as soon as possible to preside over the judgment. It's a pity that the party is fighting for the country, and I am afraid that there will be great variables in this. Jiang Jie smiled again.

"Oh? What will be the variables? Yue Su said curiously.

"Now there are a few people in Beijing who can command the army, but in terms of seniority, there are only two left. One is Gao Di, the secretary of the military department, but he is Wei Zhongxian's person, and he can't fight, if he is allowed to go, he is afraid that Shandong will fall into the hands of the enemy. The other is Xiong Tingbi of the Lord's Mansion, if he goes out, it should not be difficult to quell the rebellion. It's just that ......" Jiang Jie deliberately sank in the end and sold Guanzi.

"It's just that the current allies of the adults, the leaders of the three parties of Qi, Chu and Zhejiang, Fang Gelao, are bent on eliminating dissidents, and I am afraid that they will not recommend Xiong Tingbi, but will strongly recommend Gao Di. In their hearts, the bandits are nothing more than a disease of scabies, which can be pacified after all, and the only way to do this is to pull down the backbone of the eunuch party first. Once Gaodi is recommended to lead the army to Shandong, Gaodi is defeated, the emperor will definitely be held accountable, Gaodi's official position will not be guaranteed, and the position of the secretary of the military department will fall into the hands of the three parties. At that time, most of Wei Zhongxian's wings will be lost, and the situation will fall into the hands of the three parties. Jiang Jie finished and smiled at Yue Su.

"Are you sure Fang Congzhe will do this?" Yue Su was a little unthinkable.

Jiang Jie bowed slightly, and said: "Today's court meeting, the emperor will convene the civil and military forces to discuss the matter of eliminating the bandits, if you don't believe it, you can inquire after the court meeting." ”

At that time, Yue will send someone to inquire. Mr. is the right person, there is a strategy to suppress bandits and govern the country, Yue sincerely asks for advice here. Yue Su said earnestly.

"But there are three ways to govern the country here. The first strategy is to strengthen armaments. The Ming Dynasty is now incurable, and if you want to recover, it is not a day's work, only to maintain the number of qi first, and then try to alleviate and advance. Therefore, the first step is to strengthen armament to resist foreign aggression and eliminate internal troubles. ”

Yue Su felt deeply justified in Jiang Jie's suggestion, Yue Su knew the combat effectiveness of the imperial court, and he also knew how the Ming Dynasty fell. If you want to change the law and reform, you need to shake the interests of most people, and it is not possible to succeed in a short period of time.

"That's good." Yue Su nodded his head and said, "What's next." ”

"The second strategy is to consolidate the strength of the adults themselves. Although your Excellency is now in an alliance with the three parties of Qi, Chu and Zhejiang, you, as an ally, are really unreliable. Adults must have their own teams, so that some officials take adults as the core, and the horses are the first. Otherwise, what adults want to do, they must discuss with Fang Congzhe, and if they are constrained by others, they may not be able to move. It's like this time, it wasn't Xu Hongru who was burned to death at all, and I understand it in the lower capital, let alone Xu Hongru, these old foxes. They insisted that Xu Hongru was real, and they just wanted to drive Wei Guangwei and the others away as soon as possible and get their current position. There is also the case of Wei Guangwei and others, which involves many officials, as long as the case is concluded, those officials involved will all be pulled off the horse, and so many positions will be vacated, not for those junior officials who are dependent on Fang Congzhe. Knowing that as soon as the officials in Shandong got off the horse, the bandit generals would not be able to clean up, and they still did it, hehe......" In the end, Jiang Jie shook his head and smiled.

In this matter, Yue Su was actually kept in the dark, but he was a clever person after all, and after Jiang Jie's point, he reacted immediately. But he still doesn't believe that Fang Congzhe can definitely do something that impacts dissidents, but will he put the country and society in the lost arm, knowing that he will not become it?

"Look at the look of the adult, it seems that he doesn't believe it. But it's reasonable that you don't believe it now, but in a few days, adults will believe it. The officials involved in the case in Zhili, Shandong, Shanxi, and Henan have now been brought to Beijing, and their cases will definitely be tried and resolved quickly, and they will all be pulled down. Next, it is to fill the vacancy, if my guess is correct, most of the officials who substitute Zhili, Shanxi, and Henan will be Fang Congzhe's people, and most of the officials who replace Shandong will be Wei Zhongxian's people. Adults should also know that since Zhu Yanxi, a scholar of Dongge University and a secretary of the ministry, got out, Wang Qia, who took over as the secretary of the ministry, is a native of Shandong and the backbone of the Qi party. Replacing officials is a first-class major event in the current imperial court, and you can understand what your Lord Wang should do. Jiang Jie said confidently.

"Well, I'll see. I don't know what the third strategy is? Yue Su asked again.

"The third strategy is naturally to make money for the imperial court and then gradually reform, but this is to build on the foundation of the completion of the first two strategies." Regarding the third strategy, Jiang Jie did not go into detail, but smiled on his face, and then said: "Now that the Shandong White Lotus Sect is rebellious, shouldn't the adults also choose a time to enter the palace and ask the emperor for their guilt?" ”

"That's what I mean, I just want a letter from my husband, so I'll come here first, and I'll enter the palace later."

"Between the following, it is better for adults not to go on horses, and they recommended who to go to Shandong Ping, and then make a calculation. If it is Gao Di, in addition to asking for sin, the lord will also admonish the emperor to prevent Gao Di from going. Because of the defeat of Gaodi, it is inevitable that the lives will be ruined, and I am afraid that I will be inexhaustible from now on. If it weren't for Gao Di......" Jiang Jie suddenly chuckled when he arrived here, "It shouldn't be him." ”

"Is the gentleman so confident?"

"......" Jiang Jie said with a laugh: "If you don't have such confidence, you don't dare to fly arrows to pass the book, so I recommend myself." Your Excellency pleads guilty this time, just say it explicitly, and you can help Your Majesty to calm down, and it will be okay to forgive. Jiang Mou recently stayed here in the city, if the adults think that Jiang Mou is a talent, they can come again. ”

finished, Jiang Jie raised the teacup and looked like he was serving tea to the guests.

Yue Su stood up and said, "If it is as Mr. said, Fang Congzhe recommends Gao Di to go, Yue will come to the door again and invite Mr. out of the mountain." With that, he turned and left.

Lord Yue has always regarded himself very highly, and his protégé Yang Yishan used to be the master of his brother's talents, but no one was as arrogant as Jiang Jie.

Whether it is arrogant or really has the ability, you will know it after the dispersal of the dynasty.

Yue Su left with Tie Qiu and Li Haoquan, Qin Xin walked into the inner room, moved a chair and sat beside Jiang Jie, and said softly: "Childe, I have also heard of Lord Yue's name, and he is definitely the leading figure in the current imperial court. You're in front of him, isn't it a little ......"

Jiang Jie just smiled slightly, unfurled the black paper fan, and said, "I'm sure he will come back." ”
