Section 127 The Most Ruthless Official of the Ming Dynasty [Fourth Update]
Bai Minghe hasn't said it yet, in fact, there are still Nan Zhangguo who are willing to choose royal women who are willing to marry Daming.
As soon as he heard that there was really a princess, Zhang Mao immediately jumped up: "Bai Minghe, you owe me a princess!" Zhang Mao yelled: "Don't be a widow, it's too disgusting to be short and ugly!" β
Concubine Taishang couldn't say a word, no matter what Bai Minghe said was true or false, right or wrong. She has no way to evaluate, the most difficult thing to marry in the Ming Dynasty is the daughter of the noble, and the most difficult to marry is also the son of the noble.
Take his younger brother as an example, it is not easy to marry a woman from a good family.
Those who are also nobles cannot be married, the daughters of important ministers in the court cannot be married, the daughters of great merchants cannot be married, and the princesses cannot be married. In fact, there is only one reason, that is, they are afraid of forming a party and interfering in politics with their relatives.
"Bai Minghe, come to Donghua Gate tomorrow morning, and the palace will arrange for you to enter the palace."
Thinking about it, Taishang Jing Guifei still planned to try her best to help Bai Minghe once, originally she told Qinghe to go back to the palace to find an opportunity, but at this time she clearly told Bai Minghe that Donghua Gate was going to enter the palace tomorrow morning.
"Xie Taishang Guifei Niangniang!" The white-named crane bowed.
Before the convoy of the British Mansion left, Yu Qian's sedan chair had already arrived. The meeting between the two sides was just a polite greeting, and the British government had little to do with Yu Qian.
If there is a relationship, it is that Yu Qian is the secretary of the military department. However, the British Duchy represents a big force in the military, and it can be said that the British Duke is the most prominent of the dukes, and the other one who can be equal to it is the Xu family of the Duke of Wei who guarded in Nanjing.
As soon as he entered the door, Yu Qian directly clarified his intentions: "Zhang Jie has been removed, and his son has also been abolished from inheritance." Hooray only said. If the Zhang family has any more meritorious ministers, they will consider letting Zhang Jie's other sons continue his earldom. You're too this time. Is there anyone else in the capital that you haven't offended? β
"It's called Liwei. It's not that I'm in vain, but long live Liwei. This is the sue sΓΉ people of the world. Long live the Ming Emperor wants to do something, whoever stretches out his claws will cut off whomever claws. I just chose a few suitable claws and sent them over to be chopped by the Long Live Lord, and the power that my white crane wants to stand up is not yet time? β
Yu Qian sighed: "The grain from the guards in Henan has already been on the ship, and it was originally planned to leave tonight." However, the Inspectorate had to send someone to supervise the distribution of food, so it was postponed until tomorrow. β
"Lord Yu, I said something that shouldn't be said. It is a kind of greed to intercept the flow before it is issued, and it is also a kind of greed to take it back from the hands of the soldiers after it has been issued. Therefore, Zhang Jie's affairs will also be announced to the world, and even an earl will be demoted to a commoner. I don't know if it will scare those who dare to reach out! β
Yu Qian didn't quite agree with Bai Minghe's words.
In the eyes of Humility. Although the Ming Dynasty's guard also has some petty greed, the general direction is still good.
Just like this grain release, it may be peeled off, but the amount will definitely not exceed 20% of the total amount, so this is allowed. The truth that when the water is clear, there is no fish, Yu Qian, who is upright, can see through it, he doesn't believe that a cunning guy like Bai Minghe can't understand it.
Entering the study, Yu Qian walked straight to Li Bing.
"Master Li, I need to talk to you. It's already extremely difficult to hold the Hetao right now......" Yu Qian took the initiative to speak.
Li Bing put down the pen in his hand: "Yu Shangshu." Hetao no longer belongs to the Ming Dynasty in the five years of Xuande. β
"No, shrinking the line of defense doesn't mean giving up. The Hetao was originally a buffer zone, and there was nothing wrong with Taishang Chengzu's strategy. The Hetao is easy to attack and difficult to defend, and because of the constant harassment from the north, Tuntian has become more and more difficult in recent years. Leave the river routine guards. It can only increase the burden of Daming! β
Li Bing's understanding of military affairs and Yu Qian are not on the same level at all.
But he knows how to be a man, he knows how to do things.
After hearing Yu Qian's explanation, Li Bing understood: "Taishang Chengzu just never thought of it. The Ming Dynasty was defeated by incompetent people, but he didn't know how to soldier. It's just that the lower officials don't understand. Why did Yu Shangshu say at this time that he was going to lose the Hetao? β
"White Crane. Do you understand? Yu Qian glanced back at the white crane.
"My understanding is that 20 years ago many of the guards there were abandoned and relocated. But the loop was not occupied by the north, and it became an empty window. Even if they wanted to go south, they had to cross the loop first. At this time, the Ming army had time to react, and the battlefield could be placed in the Hetao or on the Great Wall! β
Yu Qian nodded, Bai Minghe said it well at the beginning.
With Yu Qian's encouragement, Bai Minghe continued: "The Hetao is a good place, with abundant water and plants. Farming is not good, but grazing is a good place. The Hetao is an empty window for the Ming Dynasty is beneficial, and it is a great burden for the Ming Dynasty to occupy the Hetao, where it is not convenient to land the fields, so a large amount of grain and grass is needed to transport it. Conversely, then, if the northern Wattles occupy the loop, they can graze their cattle and it is easier for them to go south, and the difference is too great. β
"Master Li, this official is very surprised, Bai Minghe is really as boastful, and he is extremely knowledgeable."
Li Bing also understood what Yu Qian meant, and Yu Qian's praise of Bai Minghe was an admission that Bai Minghe's rhetoric was exactly what he meant.
"How much does it take to prevent the Watts from occupying the loop?"
"Daming is out of the customs, and the need is huge. Judging from the current situation, this amount is too large to be calculated, and it is not something that Daming can support. Even if there are an extra five million stone of grain every year, it is not enough to support the establishment of a defense line in the Hetao, so it is necessary to find another way, which is also the reason why this official came to see Li Da today! β
Li Bing didn't understand, what could he do?
Yu Qian pointed at the white-named crane: "This official believes that the white-named crane has a way." β
"Wrong, it's Lord Yu who has a way, my white name crane was just pushed to the front desk for people to see. So, today I'm going to avoid it, I don't want to talk about this issue these days. After speaking, Bai Minghe walked out of the study.
Yu Qian didn't stop Bai Minghe, but just said: "Bai Minghe, when it comes to ruthlessness." In the past fifty years of the Ming Dynasty, there have been traitorous ministers who are so bold as to ignore the life and death of the people, but they are far from you in front of your white crane. Even I, Yu Qian, didn't dare to open my mouth and order the slaughter of the city. β
Speaking of slaughtering the city, Li Bing jumped up so violently.
Bai Minghe didn't look back, and sneered twice: "Sometimes, it's the good people who die!" β
"White Crane!" Li Bing was angry, Yu Qian wanted to say that Bai Minghe slaughtered the city, he believed a hundred times, and Bai Minghe needed to have a more solid attitude Yu Qian's words, how could Li Bing not be angry. How can an orthodox Confucian scholar face such an evil act as the slaughter of the city?
Yu Qian stopped Li Bing and let Bai Minghe leave directly.
Out of the study, Bai Minghe shook his head with a wry smile, and said to himself: "Actually, I'm afraid of seeing blood!" β
If Li Bing heard this, he would probably be so angry that he would vomit blood.
Yu Qian explained to Li Bing at this time: "Master Li, don't be impulsive, Bai Minghe's original words are." The dead Japanese are good Japanese people, and it is said that they are slaughtering the city, but in fact, all the Japanese people in a seaport in the white name crane Nanzhang Kingdom have been cleaned up, and there are not many people who have really been killed. β
"Not much, how much?" Li Bing has also recovered his strength, it seems that there is another hidden story in this slaughter.
"The white crane killed seven boats of people, about a thousand people. In that port, Bai Minghe arranged for Chen Ada, the general of Guangdong Zhengwupin, to make a move, Chen Ada, killed the people who resisted, tied up the Japanese woman and transported it back to Guangdong, and may still be locked up somewhere in Hepu now. There were also some strong ones, but they were sent to the Lingshan Coal Mine and became mine slaves. β
Li Bingxin said that this was not a massacre of the city, but just a revenge for the destruction of a Japanese people in the city.
"Lord Yu, does the white-named crane have a deep enmity with the Japanese people?"
"I don't know." Yu Qian shook his head.
After thinking about it, Yu Qian said again: "However, many people in Guangdong have enmity with the Japanese people, and Bai Minghe is the kind of person who is full of chivalry. Moreover, Deng Hailong and the Japanese have an enmity with each other. β
Li Bing understood this much better.
Deng Hailong has a grudge against the Japanese people, and with Deng Hailong's influence in the Guangdong military, even if he doesn't speak, these people will definitely help him if they have the opportunity. Bai Minghe ordered to attack the Japanese people in Da Nang, which was exactly in line with the intentions of these Guangdong soldiers, and it was naturally a big killing, a big robbery, and a big robbery.
"Lord Yu said, where is the Hetao?"
"This matter still has to fall into the hands of Bai Minghe, and you Lord Li can't be ruthless with this kind of heart. This is also the reason why I strongly recommend Lord Li to be the governor of Xuanfu, if Bai Minghe initiates madness, you Lord Li will pull him behind, so that he will not do something that will cause the wrath of the heavens! β
Yu Qian and Li Bing nodded at the same time, and the two sat down together.
Li Bing admired Yu Qian's righteousness and loyalty to the Ming Dynasty. Although it is not a faction, it does not affect his affirmation of Qian. As for Yu Qian, he can let go of the factional dispute and recommend Li Binglai to serve as the governor of Xuanfu, only this bearing, above the Ming court, Li Bing believes that there will be no more than five people who can compare with Yu Qian.
Even Li Bing himself doesn't believe that he has this bearing.
Speaking of Bai Minghe, who can order thousands of people to be killed at the age of eighteen, even those who see blood every day in Dongchang and Jinyiwei may not be able to have this kind of heart.
Shirana Tsuru, who left the study, did not go back to his house, but went to Kiyohe's room.
Qinghe was sitting on the edge of the bed embroidering something, when he saw Bai Minghe come in and quickly hid the object in his hand on the bed. Just as he was about to stand up, Shirakawa said, "Just sit like that, don't get up." β
Qinghe didn't understand, but he still listened to Bai Minghe's words. It wasn't until Bai Minghe sat beside her that Qinghe really felt nervous. Bai Minghe reached out and took Qinghe's hand, Qinghe was expecting what Bai Minghe would say to him, but when he saw Bai Minghe's body fall, he took his hand and fell on the bed right on his lap.
"Don't move, let me lean for a while!" Shirakawaru let out a long breath.
Qinghe really wanted to ask Bai Minghe if he was tired. I can see that when the white crane closes his eyes, his brows are slightly furrowed. There was also some inexplicable pain in his heart, so he reached out and pressed it on Bai Minghe's forehead, and gently pressed it on Bai Minghe.
"Tell me, what did you gain from going to meet friends yesterday?" Shira-naka spoke up.
Qinghe smiled gracefully: "I heard some rumors about you, young master. (To be continued......)

So, what does dawn mean????
