Chapter 587: Intended
Surrounded by sandalwood, the room was very quiet, and Luo Sigong was stunned when he found that the housekeeper did not follow up. However, he didn't hesitate too much, and raised his legs to buy the inner hall.
There were only two people in the inner hall at this time, it was Mu Tianbo, the little grandfather of Wei Guogong and Qianguo Gong, and the two of them seemed to be discussing something. Looking at the expressions of the two people, Luo Sigong was stunned for a moment, unlike himself, Wei Guogong and Mu Tianbo looked very relaxed. The two of them seemed to be talking about something happy, with smiles on their faces, looking very happy.
"Luo Sigong has seen Grandpa Guo, and he has seen Grandpa Xiao!" Although Luo Sigong is in a high position and has the trust of the Emperor of the Weather, he really has no pride in front of these two. He arched his hand and said in a calm tone.
"It turned out to be Lord Luo, please take a seat, why does Lord Luo have to salute? It's so gracious! When Luo Sigong was about to pay homage, Wei Guogong quickly walked to Luo Sigong's side, stretched out his hand to support Luo Sigong, Wei Guogong said with a smile.
Hereditary duke, courteous to a hundred officials, Wei Guogong can be said to have a lot of respect for Luo Sigong. The three of them sat down again, Wei Guogong looked at Luo Sigong with a smile, and said, "I don't know what Lord Luo is doing here?" Could it be that there is someone in the mansion who has offended Lord Luo? β
Since the last time he and Cui Fu came to the Wei Guogong Mansion, Luo Sigong has lived here, and Wei Guogong is mostly polite when he says this. The subordinates of the Guogong Mansion may be arrogant, but for the distinguished guests, they will definitely not do anything unruly. As for Luo Sigong's intention, Wei Guogong can also guess it, but he can't say it there!
Grandpa Guo laughed, it is Luo Sigong's blessing to be able to live in the Guogong Mansion, and I would like to thank Grandpa Guo for his hospitality. Luo Sigong is here today not for some small things, but for big things. Luo Sigong hurriedly smiled, he also knew that Wei Guogong must know his intentions, but Wei Guogong couldn't say it, and he couldn't find it out. Although both of them know it, no one can say that even if no one watches it, this play must be performed.
"Oh? Don't know what's going on? Lord Luo is so serious. It must be a big deal, Lord Luo, but please speak up! Wei Guogong seemed to be very surprised, his face became serious, and he looked at Luo Sigong and said in a deep voice.
Nodding, Luo Sigong leaned over to Wei Guogong, looked at Mu Tianbo on the side, and lowered his voice and said, "Luo just received the news that those people have begun to transfer troops to the city!" Since noon, soldiers have been transferred into the city one after another, and all of them are stationed in the school yard in Dongcheng. β
Wei Guogong glanced at Mu Tianbo in surprise. He turned his head again and said solemnly: "There is such a thing?" actually transferred troops into the city without permission. Did they eat the bear's heart and leopard's gall? He slapped the table angrily. Wei Guogong stood up suddenly.
"Yes! The thieves are so cunning, if it weren't for Jinyi's ability to reconnoitre, they would have almost been concealed! Jinyi Wei did a very good job in this matter, and Lord Luo made great contributions. Grandpa Guo, you have to ask for credit for Lord Luo afterwards! The expression on Mu Tianbo's face was also very serious, and he looked at Wei Guogong and said with a serious face.
"Yes, what the virtuous nephew said makes a lot of sense! Lord Luo has made great contributions to this matter, and the prince of the country will definitely write a book to ask for credit for Lord Luo! Wei Guogong nodded hurriedly, looked at Luo Sigong with a big smile, and said.
While speaking politely, Luo Sigong peeked at Mu Tianbo, and he was really blind. This little grandfather of Qianguo Gong is not a simple character. A simple sentence linked himself to Wei Guogong. Although he didn't say it, the meaning of the alliance was obvious, and he had no way to refuse.
Luo Sigong knew very well in his heart that it was impossible for Wei Guogong not to know about the transfer of troops. Maybe the dirty things in the officialdom can be hidden from Wei Guogong, and the small things in private can also be hidden. The transfer of troops is such a big thing, and it cannot be concealed. In Nanjing, if you want to mobilize every soldier and soldier, without Wei Guogong's nod, you don't want to think about it.
Although the military power is now temporarily replaced by An Xiangbo, it is definitely easy for Wei Guogong to get the news. However, Wei Guogong can't say that he got the news, that's death! He happened to be the source of the news, but he did not have the prestige and power of Wei Guogong. Although he can also transfer troops, he is different from Wei Guogong after all.
If you want to transfer troops to arrest people, Wei Guogong can do it now, Luo Sigong firmly believes this! But it will give people the feeling of high merit and shock, as if the world of Wei Guogong in Nanjing City, which is absolutely unacceptable. If there is arrest now, at most it can be regarded as an attempted rebellion, and this credit is not great!
But if these people really raise the banner to rebel, the crime will be easy to convict, and the credit will be great! Moreover, by taking advantage of this opportunity, those generals who do not share their own hearts can lay the foundation, and the equalization reform can be better implemented in the future. Luo Sigong thought about it for a long time, and probably came up with these reasons, but this was enough.
Luo Sigong himself understands that Zhou Jiamo is dead, and he is alive! In any case, I will not be able to escape this crime of poor protection. If things in Nanjing end hastily, it means that you are too incompetent! If there is a big trouble, then you can shirk it, the thief is powerful, and there is no way for you. If there is Wei Guogong's merit, maybe he can still be blessed by misfortune!
Mu Tianbo and Wei Guogong on the side didn't speak, both of them were quietly sipping tea, waiting for Luo Sigong to wake up from his contemplation. Occasionally, the two of them would make eye contact, but Mu Tianbo had a smile on his face from beginning to end.
Glancing at Wei Guogong and Mu Tianbo, Luo Sigong hurriedly confessed, "I'm really sorry, Luo is actually distracted, it's really damned!" β
"Lord Luo is too tired to serve the country and the people! You can fall asleep while sitting here, and you are really a model for your ministers! No wonder the emperor takes Lord Luo so seriously, it really makes me admire. Mu Tianbo looked at Luo Sigong with a smile and complimented.
Wei Guogong on the side also looked at Luo Sigong with a smile, he couldn't say such words, he could say the compliments very sincerely, without missing any traces, I am afraid that he would not be able to do it in his life. It's Mu Tianbo, who has this determination at a young age, and has no arrogance to others, which is really rare!
"The little grandfather praised it falsely, Luo Sigong is also loyal to the emperor, and he is dead!" Luo Sigong nodded solemnly and said modestly.
Wei Guogong on the side really couldn't stand it, this one held it, and the other took it all, this is going to say when to go. Seeing that Mu Tianbo was about to speak, he hurriedly interrupted: "Let's stop saying this polite word, let's get down to business!" The matter has come to this point, I don't know what Lord Luo thinks? Lord Luo is a deputy messenger, but there is a sending, despite the command! There was no intention to go around in circles, Wei Guogong said directly.
Speaking of the main topic, Luo Sigong also became serious, straightened his expression, and said: "This official is not familiar with life in Nanjing, so there is really no good way. Wei Gongshi Town Nanjing, it's better for Grandpa Guo to take the idea! β
"Grandpa Guo, the matter has been clarified!" The butler walked in from the outside, saluted a few people respectfully, and then spoke.
"Say it!" Wei Guogong nodded solemnly, but glanced at Luo Sigong on the side and said slowly.
The housekeeper nodded hurriedly and replied, "Grandpa Qiyuguo, the Governor's Mansion received an order, and it was sent by the Nanjing Military Department this morning. The old slave didn't see the order itself, but the general content was to transfer troops into the city to maintain law and order! Help track down the assassin of Chincha-sama. β
"A thief shouts to be a thief!" Wei Guogong's face suddenly showed anger, and Wei Guogong had no good impression of Nanjing's military department.
The Governor's Office of the Five Armies in Nanjing only has the right to command troops, but not the right to transfer troops, and the power to transfer troops is in the hands of the Ministry of War. Although Nanjing's six departments did not play a big role, they were not all decorations, and most of the governance of the entire seven southern provinces still depended on them. The transfer of soldiers and horses from the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies must be ordered by the Nanjing Military Department.
Now these people are reasonable and legal in terms of procedures, and even if they arrest people, there is no evidence, so it can be said that they do everything without leakage. Wei Guogong couldn't help but hate itchy, but he also knew that now was not the time to be rash.
Waving his hand to signal the housekeeper to go down, Wei Guogong said to Luo Sigong and Mu Tianbo: "Both of you have heard it, I don't know if you have any good ideas?" β
Luo Sigong now has a little understanding of the power of the Wei Mansion, although he used to think it was big, but he didn't expect it to be big. It didn't take Wei Guogong to come forward, but the housekeeper came forward, and he actually figured out the content of the military department's order. This is still a hostile situation with the other party, if it is on your own side, it may not be good, and it may be more effective than the holy decree.
For Wei Guogong not hiding himself, Luo Sigong also knew in his heart that one was to tell himself that he trusted himself, and the other was to deter himself. After figuring it out, Luo Sigong smiled and said, "Grandpa Guo will make up his own mind!" Luo can't think of any good way now, but Luo is looking forward to the grandfather of the country! "Since it has been decided, Luo Sigong will lower his attitude, it always doesn't hurt!
Wei Guogong nodded with satisfaction, glanced at Luo Sigong, and said with a smile: "If the national government is not bad, these people will definitely be closed tomorrow!" At that time, Nanjing will become a besieged city, and we will be the turtles in the urn! It's so naΓ―ve, I thought I was a vegetarian! There was a thick mockery on his face, and his tone was full of disdain.
"I don't know what good ideas Grandpa Guo has? What can Luo do? Luo Sigong nodded and asked.
"This is a long story, and I have time to explain it to Lord Luo in detail. Now Lord Luo should arrange the matter of Jinyiwei as soon as possible! We need the most accurate information, I believe that Lord Luo will not disappoint his country, right? Wei Guogong frowned and smiled, but he didn't explain anything to Luo Sigong, but made a request.
