Dingbei Hou and Jinyi Wei both commanded Wang Tong to want to get along with Li Chengliang, the chief soldier of Liaozhen, this is not a trivial matter, thinking about it carefully, this should be regarded as the collision of the old and new generations of generals in the Ming Dynasty. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

However, the repercussions caused by this collision in the political and officialdom are much smaller, because Wang Tong followed the common return journey in the officialdom this time, what is common, that is, the big guy himself does not come forward, but he asks the official to impeach, pull this matter out, and then everyone cares.

If the bigwigs come forward at the beginning, it will involve too much, and the size is too big, and it is often not easy to end.

Wang Tong rarely follows this path, Wang Tong gives people a very bad impression in the officialdom of the Beijing Division, when he moves, it is often a real knife and a real gun, and the scene of seeing blood or about to see blood often has little room for turning in circles, but this time it is according to tradition, so it is easy to say a lot.

Emperor Wanli was very satisfied with Wang Tong's attitude, if Wang Tong took the initiative to mention Liao Town in the court, no matter what Wang Tong wanted to do, he had to think carefully, and in the end he mainly refused, but if he did this, it would be up to Wang Tong to do it, and it would be up to him to say something.

On the twenty-fourth day of the lunar month, the court meeting has become a little lazy, if it is not for Concubine Zheng, next year it will be Empress Zheng who persuaded a few words, Emperor Wanli wants to stay in the harem to tease the child, recently, Empress Zheng's attitude towards Concubine Wang Gong is very close, Zhu Changluo and Zhu Changxun's little brother often play in L, but it makes Emperor Wanli quite like.

"Your Majesty, there are rumors and Liaozhen in the imperial history, and the ministers have also heard of it, such scholars are in Beijing, and they don't know about the side affairs, they are really full of nonsense, and I hope Your Majesty will see it!"

The court meeting didn't last long, and no one thought that it was Bi Qiang, the secretary of the military department, who jumped out first, and everyone exchanged glances, but they all had some disdain.

Everyone knows that the military department is very well fed by Liao Town, but your military department is in charge of the border town, you are a military department secretary is so active, it is really too unidentity, and in this way, ten ** is promoted under the pressure of a cadre of Lang officials below, this Bi Shangshu has not yet been the military department Lou Biao, Emperor Wanli nodded indifferently, and asked: "Wang Tong, you have stayed outside the Saiwai, what do you think about this matter?" ”

Left and right near the New Year, Emperor Wanli didn't bother to say, directly asked the lord, Wang Tong responded to the line, saluted and replied: "Your Majesty, Liaozhen's move is the loyalty of the people close to the Ming Dynasty, thousands of miles outside the territory, the Ming soldiers will go out to fight alone, and they also need someone to assist, if these people are executed by the captives afterwards, then who will dare to be loyal to the Ming Dynasty in the future......"

Wang Tong gushed endlessly, there was no difference between what he said and Yang Sichen's private conversation that day, Emperor Wanli listened very carefully, Wang Tong said in the end, in addition to repeating the old tune, he said: "The army of Liaozhen, no less than 20,000 elites, no less than 150,000 regular soldiers, but let a Jurchen chief sit big, and connived in many ways, this kind of practice is to raise thieves and self-respect."

After saying this, everyone looked over, thinking that Lord Wang can really toss, and the name of "raising thieves and self-respect" is already extremely important to the general of the border town.

There was no specific disposal at the court meeting, but after the court meeting, Wang Tong was left by Emperor Wanli, and Emperor Wanli knew that Wang Tong would never be untargeted, and the reason why he said this in the court must have his reason, and he still went through such a procedure.

"What bad intentions does Li Chengliang have?"

"Back to Your Majesty, Li Chengliang's family should be loyal to Daming."

After answering the question, Emperor Wanli frowned, and asked again: "In this case, why do you want to do such a thing?" ”

"Your Majesty, although the Li family is loyal, but the current mind of doing things for the court is not as heavy as the mind of protecting their own glory and wealth, taking care of their own mind, the court will not be able to take care of it, for example, this Jianzhou Jurchen Hao Chief, there are rumors that the Li family supported and deliberately made out the captive, this kind of thing is detrimental to the Ming Dynasty, but it can keep his Li family's wealth, if you don't knock on Hui, the Li family will get carried away, and sooner or later it will cause a big disaster."

After Wang Tong answered, Emperor Wanli groaned, and Wang Tong said while the iron was hot: "Your Majesty must have also seen the report of Jinyiwei and Dongchang, now Liaozhen, even the foreigners outside the border wall, who knows Your Majesty, not only recognize this Li Dashuai, Liaozhen is Your Majesty's territory, it is the territory of the Ming Dynasty, but it is not the private property of his Li family!" ”

This sentence touched the taboo of Emperor Wanli, his expression moved, and he raised his head and said, "It's time to knock on the ......."

After saying this, the monarch and the ministers chatted a few words, Wang announced that after Wang Tong left the imperial study, Emperor Wanli was silent for a while and asked: "Wang Tong did this for what Sun Shoulian of Liao Town is for?" ”

Zhang Cheng, who was behind Emperor Wanli, bowed down and replied: "Long live Lord Mingjian, it should be like this, before this matter, that Sun Shoulian had come to visit Wang Tong, and then left to return, this matter is so close, it should be so." ”

Emperor Wanli shook his head with a smile, but at the end he sighed, and said in a deep voice: "Sun Shoulian, I heard his name a few years ago, the goods outside the customs and the big trees on the mountain are all supplied by this person, and even the origin of the trade between Liaozhen and Tianjin Wei is also the beginning of this person, although he is the general of Liaozhen, but it can also be regarded as the Caidong of Tianjin Wei, no wonder Wang Tong wants to exert his strength to move Liaozhen, and I don't know whether to promote Sun Shoulian or how?" ”

Zhang Cheng pondered his words and said in a low voice: "Long live the Lord, the Li family in Liao Town should also be knocked and beaten, after all, his family is holding the two border towns of Liao Town and Xuanfu in his hands, and Li Chengliang is too good at business, even if he has no bad intentions, for Long Live Lord, there is a hidden danger that cannot be dropped!" ”

"It's time to beat, Wang Tong is right, he Li Chengliang is completely a king outside the Guan, the eldest son is already the chief soldier of Xuanfu, and he still wants to let his sons go to other places to be officials, I really think that the general soldiers of the Ming Dynasty should let their families do it, and the palace and the military department will send people to check it.

Emperor Wanli said angrily, originally he had some vague judgments about the border towns in his heart, but after Wang Tong said it once in the court, some of the views in Emperor Wanli's heart became clear, Jiubian spent so much silver on the Ming Dynasty, but he could only nest behind the side wall and the Great Wall to be beaten passively, look at what Wang Tong did here, the importance of Jiubian suddenly weakened in the eyes of Emperor Wanli, Li Chengliang played these tricks below, he was naturally unwilling to connive.

Emperor Wanli ordered, Zhang Cheng behind him nodded and agreed, took out a folding book and recorded it, Zhang Cheng is getting older and older, many things need to be recorded, so as not to be omitted, this is actually showing old age. Emperor Wanli didn't notice this, near the end of the year, it was nothing more than the various departments to take stock of the year as some things in and out, the twists and turns were much less than in the past, after reading a few pages, Emperor Wanli said suddenly: "In the past, Wang Tong did things, I always had to think about it, worry and worry, and now he is planning for his wealth and power, I should be relieved, but it is uncomfortable!" ”

After saying a few words, he smiled self-deprecatingly, and looked at it again, Zhang Cheng shook his head in the back, wanting to sigh but not making a sound.

………………

There are more news channels for the Li family in Liaozhen than Wang Tong thought, and this discussion in the court was sorted out into a document on the same day, and the fast horse passed it on to the Jingshi.

Jingshi to Liaozhen, Shuntianfu, Yongpingfu, Shanhaiguan, but also all the way smooth, after passing Shanhaiguan, do not have to care about horsepower, the speed can be faster.

Almost on the twenty-ninth day of the lunar month, Li Chengliang received this document here, Li Chengliang was born as a student, and he could read it clearly, approaching the New Year, Li Rupai, Li Rumei's sons were in Liaoyang, and they had to be called over to discuss.

Li Chengliang has been operating in Liao Town for almost 30 years, and his sons are also generals who defend one side, and they have been noble for a long time, and they all understand these things very well.

"Sun Shoulian, that calf who eats inside and out, is so shameless, father, or he will be charged with colluding with the captives, and directly send someone to cut him!"

Li Ru scolded a sentence, but the tone was very normal, and the rest of the people didn't answer, just looked at Li Chengliang, Li Chengliang rubbed iron gall in his hand, shook his head there and said: "Sun Shoulian has taken Wang Tong's side, and if you want to move him now, Wang Tong's side will definitely not agree, and you don't know this person's style:" "The court is also nonsense, our old Li family fights for life and death, he is a courtier from a fan, and he actually jumped to this point, doesn't this make us old courtiers chill, if you continue to do this, who will give him the Zhu family's life!" ”

I don't know who said this, but Li Chengliang put the iron courage on the table, his eyebrows and eyes were full of anger, and he opened his mouth to reprimand and said: "Grievances are grievances, don't use your brains badly, what kind of battle did he Wang Tong fought, don't you really know, what those godsons on the grassland said, these words, five years ago, can be said, and now when they say it, even if they want to, sooner or later it will be a disaster for our Li family!" ”

was reprimanded like this, the room was much quieter, everyone was a military general, and naturally understood the truth of Wang Tong's exploits, and Li Chengliang's words may not be very cautious, especially the sentence "five years ago......

"Jingshi's side is going to send someone to investigate, you should be cautious when you go back, and also, the matter on the Jianzhou side will be cut off, this is a trivial matter, but it will also be made a big article."

Hearing this, Li Rupai raised his head and said with questions: "Father, Jianzhou is very filial, and if they move, the Jurchens of the rest of the departments may be standard."

"What's that, the silver on the tip of the needle, a thick mother-in-law, you care, if the court is really pressing, and the state is really destroyed, we will do it too!"
