Chapter 1002 Connecting the Honors (II)
Speaking of which, Guo Xun is definitely not good for the passing year, originally he was a nominal general soldier in Zhejiang, and he didn't pay any hard work, but he shared a large part of the profit in the war of killing the Japanese, and then he was appointed by the Son of Heaven to Shanxi to train the ten battalions of Jingzi. No matter how you look at this, it is also a sign of Guo Jiafei's Huang Tengda, maybe he, the Marquis of Wuding, may be promoted to the Duke of Wuding.
For a certain period of time, the old man was a little intoxicated in his heart, feeling that the era of belonging to the Guo family was coming, and the Three Kingdoms of Jingnan were going to fall behind him. But who knew that after arriving in Shanxi, several tiger generals he met were inexplicably related to the White Lotus Sect.
Li Fuda's case, from a system point of view, is to keep him secret, but with the relationship of the ninth sister, think about it, you also know that the so-called secrecy theory is just a deception. As soon as Guo Xun returned to Beijing, Yang Chengzu explained the reason for transferring him back, and also made it clear to him that if he was not mistaken, Zhang Yin should be Li Fuda, and Guo Xun's Zhang family brother is Li Fuda's son, the young master of the White Lotus Sect.
The Ming army and the people, religious beliefs are very complicated, even if the officers believe in the White Lotus Sect, it may not really be a big deal. is like the Ming Dynasty in another time and space, Luo Fuzheng, the leader of the Luo Sect, is himself a Cao soldier, which is not a big deal. However, a noble who presided over military training got involved with the White Lotus Sect Master, and also promoted the son of the Sect Master to an important military position in the army. If this kind of behavior is placed in the Hongwu Dynasty, it is possible that grass will grow on the grave of the Guo family now.
Even if the new monarch is generous, it is not unimaginable to put himself in prison because of this, and when this kind of thing happens, even if the son-in-law divorces his wife, others can't say anything wrong. With Yang Chengzu's momentum now, it is difficult for the Guo family and him to say who is climbing whom, he has retired the ninth sister, and it is not difficult to find a famous lady again. Guo Xun is very grateful to Yang Chengzu's high righteousness, and he is also obedient to his other arrangements.
But obeying is obeying, he is inevitably a little resentful in his heart, now the three battalions are training the new army, reorganizing the military affairs of the three battalions, on the surface, it is similar to the original post, but in fact it is equivalent to starting from scratch, and many of the previous credits are considered invalid. At the level of Xungui, if he doesn't have enough motivation, he is actually too lazy to work, and now he is personally training the soldiers, and the picture is still that illusory opportunity, so that his family can be upgraded and become a national prince.
What people are most afraid of is not despair, but to give you hope first, and then let the hope be dashed, when he moves this thought, this thought grows like a poisonous weed in his mind, making him lose his normal heart. Yang Chengzu's idea of wanting to be a big vote was also revealed to him, Guo Xun's original temperament must not have been involved in this kind of thing, but now, after he had the idea of making the family a prince in his own generation, he changed his normalcy. Not only did he take the initiative to participate, but he also had some expectations, and he was gearing up to do a big job.
The new army is the emperor's forbidden army of the Son of Heaven, and if you don't engage in soldiers, you will not respect the style of the fine willow camp, and Yang Chengzu, a favored minister of the Son of Heaven, can in principle ride a horse into any new army camp and arrest their chief officer. So no one had any opinion on his Pegasus admission, but Guo Xun pulled him to his exclusive tent with a concerned face
"Virtuous son-in-law, you don't work in the yamen, and you come to the temporary school field, but what did you say before?"
"Old Taishan is wise, what you said is not bad at all, that matter does have some eyebrows, and the Son of Heaven is tempted. You know, if it weren't for your meritorious service, I wouldn't have wanted to pry the Son of Heaven to do this, and the reason is simple, the matter is a bit big, and the gains outweigh the losses. But now that the thing is done, do you have any problems on your side? Don't let me do it here, you can't do it here, that's not good. ”
Guo Xun stroked his beard, "Chengzu, you just have to rest assured, the old man is here and ready." Your five battalions have not moved, and now after the three battalions are reorganized, the battle auxiliaries will make a total of twenty-six battalions. The old man gave an order, and among the officers and men of the 26th battalion, at least ten battalions guaranteed to cut whoever was allowed to be cut. The other sixteen battalions can also ensure that they sit on the wall and watch, and absolutely no one will obey the orders of those people, create a riot in the capital, and put pressure on the Son of Heaven. If the Mongols come to join in the fun, although we dare not say that we will win the fight, but if we pull it out to fight in the field, we can at least exchange two for one, and the Mongols are few, so we can't afford to change them at all, so you just have to let go and do it, and the old man will support you for the things outside. ”
"What you want is Lao Taishan, you say, this time, in fact, the factory guard in the hands of the son-in-law can completely support the scene. But who let us be a family, the son-in-law did Yang Ji, and you took out all the shops to support me without saying a word, this favor, I have never forgotten. With such a good opportunity, I won't miss my father-in-law, as long as I can make a great contribution this time, Shanxi's affairs will be forgotten. However, you also have to think clearly, this step out of the door, there is no turning back. ”
Guo Xun sighed, "Turn around, is the old man still back?" If it weren't for the virtuous son-in-law to protect me, I'm afraid the old man would probably be in the criminal department or Jinyiwei's edict prison, waiting for the investigation of the three law divisions. At this point, what else can't be figured out, the two ends of the first rat, in the end, can only be a person inside and out, I am a courtier of Banzai, so naturally follow Banzai. Yang Tinghe doesn't have a few years to do, so I don't believe it, what else can he do to me. ”
"Then the son-in-law can rest assured, if there is no problem here, we will have no problem. The purpose of long live is actually very simple, to respect the old lord as the imperial examination, let his god card enter the temple, and then there will be a round of war of words in the court. Those civil servants have always been loud, but this time, we must also speak out. You are a noble who rests with the country, this world, it is the ancestors of your predecessors, who beat people with their heads, and now the country is down, and when it is time to sit on the country, you are not allowed to talk to the people who beat the country. How can there be such a truth in the world? So we must speak this time, we must make our voices heard, and we don't have to worry about retaliation or anything, as long as everyone's position is accurate, I will keep everyone safe. ”
Guo Xun understood what Yang Chengzu meant, but the problem was that since the civil engineering change, the martial arts nobles in the court have been accustomed to making a fortune in a muffled voice, and if they want to speak, this matter requires a guts. When fear and idleness became habitual, the current lords no longer had the courage or interest or the ability to fight against the civil officials. A group of military generals, who even have lost most of their ability to fight on horseback, go to fight with civilian officials, and think about it, you know that most of them will not end well.
Moreover, there are more or less problems with these people, and these problems are all in the hands of the cabinet, and Yang Tinghe hides it, not because he can't deal with them, but because he doesn't bother to pay attention to them. If they really scratch their faces and the officials throw out the evidence, at least more than half of the nobles may face a serious existential crisis, and under this pressure, it is understandable that everyone will not come forward.
In the end, Yang Chengzu could only ask Guo Xun to come forward, set up a few tables of banquets in the Beijing Division, and everyone ate and drank. It also made them understand that this time they were not only acting for the emperor, but also for themselves, and if they wanted to restore their status, they would depend on the results of this time.
