Chapter 289: Return to Beijing
readx;
Li Dongyang smiled at Zhu Youzhu and said: "The civil and military officials are like this, but the imperial court should also be like this, blatantly rewarding the soldiers of the three armies and rewarding the Marquis of Lianzhou, it is inevitable that it will be criticized, this matter cannot be managed by the imperial court, nor should it be managed, and the right is not to be treated, but this national document still has to be approved, but the five counties of Annan together with the recovered Wenshan and Hefu counties can be assigned to the Lianzhou Mansion, which can be regarded as expanding the fief of the Marquis of Lianzhou to show reward." Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”
Zhu Youzhu couldn't help but nod his head when he heard Li Dongyang's words, in fact, the five counties of Annan may be extremely important to the entire Annan, and they have also benefited Lianzhou a lot, but for the imperial court, it is really like chicken ribs, and in the eyes of the princes of the court, it is a barren place that tastes like chewing wax.
Moreover, the imperial court will inevitably think that the Ming Dynasty is greedy for a small advantage, but if it is assigned to the Lianzhou Mansion, this is equivalent to a land competition between the domain and the feudal state.
"Let's do it." Zhu Youzhu smiled, obviously unwilling to dwell on this matter any longer, then smiled, and continued to Li Dongyang: "This Liu Chengfeng can't stay in Lianzhou anymore, otherwise I don't know what else will make a mess, the cabinet will draw up a will, order Liu Chengfeng to return to Beijing as soon as possible, I have an errand to him." ”
Zhu Youzhu licked his mouth, smiled, and said, "Li Aiqing, your brother, it is said that he also went to Lianzhou. ”
This seemingly unintentional question made Li Dongyang's face involuntarily flash a trace of surprise, but it soon returned to normal, Li Dongyang's mind was relatively deep, and at this time he immediately began to ponder what the emperor's words were about. However, the prelude to the king is right, the most taboo is to think twice before speaking, which will inevitably make the emperor have the impression that you are scheming. Between the monarch and the minister, at least for the monarch, he can be scheming, this is called the emperor's mental art, but in the eyes of the king, the subordinates should not have scheming, at least not in front of themselves, what the emperor wants is to see through you, but you are secretive, making people have an uncontrollable impression, so, it is a bit rebellious.
This is also why Liu Chengfeng never hides what he says in front of the emperor, even if he says the wrong thing, or even a little rebellious when he speaks, Zhu Youzhu can laugh it off, because although Liu Chengfeng sometimes makes mistakes, at least sincerely, this is enough for Zhu Youzhang.
Of course, Li Dongyang also knew this taboo, although he had doubts in his heart, but he immediately said: "Yes, the old minister wants to let the clan brother go to Liu Chengfeng to experience the experience." ”
Li Dongyang's answer was quite refreshing, if he prevaricated, it would inevitably give people a dishonest impression, but he bluntly admitted that it was his own idea, which showed his open-mindedness.
Zhu Youzhu smiled, nodded his head and said: "I have also heard about your brother, it is good to go out to experience one or two, it seems that Li Aiqing also looks down on Liu Chengfeng?" ”
A casual sentence is meaningful, Zhu Youjiao's meaning is a bit heroic, after all, there are really not many people who want to see Liu Chengfeng, the ministers think that he has lost his fame, and some military attaches feel that this guy is always hanging a book bag, and the eunuchs in the palace feel that this guy is too good at inviting pets, and he clearly steals the limelight.
It can be said that Liu Chengfeng's appointment has been the result of Zhu Youzhang's efforts to disagree with the public.
Li Dongyang breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and couldn't help thinking in his heart, if His Majesty was suspicious of Liu Chengfeng, he was afraid that he would also be pulled into the water, and the cabinet had something to do with Jinyi Wei Qianhu and the vassal marquis, which was not a good thing. Fortunately, this Liu Chengfeng's holy family is not bad, and His Majesty also trusts him very much, so it will be like this.
In fact, how did Li Dongyang know that the reason why Zhu Youzhu trusted Liu Chengfeng was precisely because this guy could always see the right time, sometimes he acted recklessly, and when he should offend anyone, he was not ambiguous at all, and he said it ugly, this is called a nerd. In the eyes of the monarch, nerds are not terrible, but what is terrible is the kind of person who sells fame and reputation everywhere, like Wang Mang. In terms of major events, Liu Chengfeng has never been ambiguous, such as the Treasure Tower, which was obviously built by him, but in the face of this huge profit, he did not hesitate to give the big head to the prince, on the one hand, he was reckless, and on the other hand, Zhu Youzhang's trust in Liu Chengfeng was naturally extraordinary.
Li Dongyang hurriedly said: "Your Majesty Shengming." ”
This is the end of a monarch and ministers, at the same time, a will of the cabinet was also sent to Lianzhou quickly, Liu Chengfeng received the will, the civil and military officials up and down Lianzhou thought that Liu Chengfeng had conquered Annan without authorization, and the will would definitely reprimand him fiercely, but what they didn't expect was that the will did not mention the matter of Annan at all, but just urgently ordered Liu Chengfeng to enter Beijing immediately, and there must be no mistake.
Liu Chengfeng took over the holy decree under the envious gaze of everyone, and the palace urged to enter Beijing, which is actually rare in Daming, but some people speculate that this Liu Chengfeng may be making too much trouble in Lianzhou, and the court is afraid that something will happen again, so it is so urgent, but it is not excluded that Liu Chengfeng's holy family Tailong, the emperor may not want to see him.
Anyway, Lian Zhouhou is leaving.
Liu Chengfeng took the will in his hand, and the eunuch who passed the will said to Liu Chengfeng with a smile: "Before the miscellaneous family left the palace, Your Majesty had an edict that after the Marquis of Lianzhou received the decree, don't stay, go directly to Beijing, don't delay it any longer." ”
This sentence of instruction can be regarded as the emperor knows Liu Chengfeng's surname too well, Liu Chengfeng, this guy, is not wrong to say that he is a loyal minister and a capable minister, but if you want to talk about the ability to toss, it is also first-class, come here for a few months, first toss with King Jingjiang, and then toss with Annanguo, tossing more and more each time, Zhu Youzhu is also afraid of him, so he told him not to stay four words.
Hearing the eunuch's words, Li Dongdong beside Liu Chengfeng couldn't help but sigh, in his opinion, the more Liu Chengfeng can toss, the more he can show his talent, if he is allowed to take refuge in those decent governors, every time he is step-by-step, he Li Dongdong is no longer knowledgeable, most of them can only be the head clerk of the case, Liu Chengfeng's surname is very appetizing to him.
After the eunuch finished speaking, he thought that Liu Chengfeng would agree, but who knew that Liu Chengfeng frowned and said, "Father-in-law, is it okay for Benhou to stay a little longer?" ”
The eunuch's eyes widened, what is this guy going to do? actually bargained with himself, but he represented the emperor. The father-in-law obviously had never met this person, and he was speechless for a while.
Liu Chengfeng continued: "Ben Hou is going to Guilin for a trip, and there are still some things to deal with. ”
The eunuch looked embarrassed and said, "But Your Majesty's dictation ......"
Liu Chengfeng said with a straight face: "Your Majesty's dictation is not allowed to stay, Benhou went to Guilin, but it was just a night's rest, what?" Isn't it even possible to take a break if you can't stay? ”
The father-in-law had no words, so he had to say: "Master Hou weighs it himself." ”
Anyway, the will has been passed on, and it is not his business whether Liu Chengfeng listens to it or not.
Liu Chengfeng also ignored him anymore, and immediately gathered the civil and military officials up and down Lianzhou, instructed some things, and asked people to pack their bags and prepare to set off, and said some words to the officials, Liu Chengfeng immediately called Wang Zheng to the back hall flower hall, Lianzhou has no Liu Chengfeng, Wang Zheng is the parent official here, almost everything is managed by Wang Zheng, Lianzhou is Liu Chengfeng's fiefdom, and there are many things that can't be put down, so you have to explain it well.
Of course, Wang Zheng also knew Liu Chengfeng's thoughts, in the past, he was a bit of a prefect, but now it is very different. Originally, his prefect was only in charge of three counties, but now it is ten counties, this one is bigger than the other two prefectures, in the past, there were mountain barbarians in turmoil, and the government was in danger, but now the mountain barbarians have been pacified, and at least the family name and life of the officials here are guaranteed. In addition, in the past, Lianzhou had turmoil from time to time, but now that it is peaceful, a large number of Lianzhou people have returned to their hometowns, and Lianzhou finally has a new atmosphere.
Liu Chengfeng glanced at him, and then began to order: "The affairs of Lianzhou must be taken care of by Lord Wang, there are several important things that Ben Hou has to explain to you, and there must be no mistakes, first of all, it is the resettlement of the mountain barbarians, money and grain, Ben Hou will allocate it, but you must strictly prohibit the servants from greedy ink, if there is an incident, Ben Hou will be the first to ask for your head." ”
This sentence is definitely not a joke, Liu Chengfeng said that he wanted Wang Zheng's head, Wang Zheng didn't think it was a joke at all, Wang Zheng nodded hurriedly and said: "Don't worry, Lord Hou, the lower officials must be careful and careful, and there will never be any mistakes." ”
Liu Chengfeng nodded and said: "There is another thing, that is, the construction of the Hou Mansion and the road, you have to watch it carefully, if there is anything to write to the Jingshi to find me." ”
Wang Zheng nodded and said, "Your Excellency, please rest assured." ”
Liu Chengfeng squinted, and then said: "There is another thing, Lianzhou Mansion will definitely prosper in the future, after entering Beijing, Benhou will plan to the emperor for some business, if your prefect is well governed, someone will protect you, do it well." ”
After appeasing Wang Zheng for a few words, Wang Tao came to remind him, saying that his bags had been packed and he could leave at any time.
Liu Chengfeng is not a person who drags mud and water, so he immediately set off, and when he arrived at the Shili Changting, officials from Lianzhou came to see him off, and Liu Chengfeng took a group of people who accompanied him towards Guilin slowly.
Diverting to Guilin was Liu Chengfeng's idea, originally from Lianzhou to Jingshi, it was a little farther to detour to Guilin, but since Liu Chengfeng chose to go here, no one had any objections, after all, this guy has such a temper, and no one can eat him.
