Chapter 469: Clever Means
Regarding the attitude of Yang He, the governor of the three sides, Xu Liang had no bottom in his heart.
Therefore, in order to be more sure, Xu Liang went to Xi'an before going to Guyuan and reported his thoughts to Hong Chengchou, the governor of Shaanxi.
Hong Chengchou agreed with Xu Liang's idea, and happily went to Guyuan City with Xu Liang to meet Yang He, the governor of the three sides.
Sure enough, when Governor Yang saw Shaanxi Governor Hong Chengchou, his face was still smiling, and when he saw Xu Liang behind Governor Hong, the smile on Governor Yang's face was as cold as frost.
Xu Liang pinched the tip of his nose in embarrassment, and slandered in his heart: Lao Tzu, is this digging your ancestral grave or what? Every time he saw me, Governor Yang put on his stinky face.
Although he greeted all the women in Governor Yang's Mansion from the bottom of his heart, Xu Liang still forcibly suppressed the anger that was rising, and said what he said to Governor Hong in Xi'an Mansion again to Governor Yang. In the end, Xu Liang also accompanied the pen face as much as possible, and said respectfully: "Lord Governor, during the Apocalypse, the Wenxiang Sect once caused chaos in Shandong and harmed the court. Now, judging from the situation grasped by the lower officials, the forces of the Wenxiang Sect in the northwest have already formed a scale, and they have done a lot of harm. For the long-term peace and stability of the Ming Dynasty, I also ask the Governor to give an order to eradicate the Smelling Fragrance Sect with all his might! ”
After Xu Liang finished speaking, he and Governor Hong quietly waited for Governor Yang to respond.
To be honest, in the bottom of Governor Yang's heart, his disgust with Xu Liang is really not a little bit. The officials on the ground in the northwest all knew that he, Yang He, had come to be the governor of the three sides, that is, he was rushing to appease the leaders of the people's army who suddenly appeared in various parts of the northwest for the court. On his first day in office, Governor Yang solemnly announced his policy program to the officials in the northwest.
Obviously, the young Pingliang prefect Xu Liang in front of him. I didn't listen to it at all.
Recruiting the people's army is the key, and Xu Liang is on this matter that Governor Yang regards as the top priority. Not only did he not care at all, but today he pulled Hong Chengchou, the governor of Shaanxi. Baba ran to his governor's palace to ask for an order to clean up the Smelling Incense Sect that suddenly appeared on the ground in the northwest?!
I don't expect you to contribute to the cause of appeasement for Bentu, and you still come to cause chaos for Bendu?!
It's so unbelievable!
Governor Yang resisted the urge to scold his mother in front of Xu Liang and Hong Chengchou. He glanced at Xu Liang with a salty expression, slowly and leisurely picked up the teacup in front of him and took a sip of tea, smacking his mouth, and then said slowly: "Governor Hong, uh." There is also this Xu Governor. At present, the work of recruiting the people's army on the ground in the northwest is going on at the most critical time, and the leaders of the people's army in various places are also the most suspicious and vulnerable. In order to appease the great plan, the Governor believes that it is very important to maintain the current calm situation in the northwest. ”
Xu Liang and Hong Chengchou were both stunned and looked at Governor Yang blankly. The two never expected it. After waiting for a long time, I waited for Governor Yang to respond.
Hong Chengchou's face was also a little ugly, and Xu Liang once again proved in his heart that the Governor Yang in front of him was a complete parallel import. Governor Yang did not wait to see him. That's perfectly normal. The level of understanding of Xu Liang and Governor Yang, what world view, and life values. It's not on a level at all, uh no. It's not in the same 3D coordinate system at all.
There was a huge difference in understanding, and Xu Liang thought that he and Governor Yang could not have a pleasant conversation.
Disappointed. Extremely disappointed.
This was Xu Liang's mood, the corners of his mouth curled in a disdainful arc, and he simply twisted his head to the side, looking at the blue bricks and red tiles outside the lobby.
Even the mossy bricks are much more pleasing to the eye than Yang He's old horseman.
"Ah, of course, the Wenxiang Sect has been a disaster for a long time, and it is also the duty of the government to clean up the Wenxiang Sect. Governor Hong and Governor Xu were able to take the initiative to carry out investigations and grasp important scriptures, which the Governor also appreciated. Yang He saw that Governor Hong had an unhappy face, and he didn't want to have a stiff fight with the Governor of Shaanxi, so he added dryly: "It's just that there is always a priority for everything, and the Wenxiang Sect wants to be cleared, but not now!" ”
"What do you mean, Lord Governor?" Governor Hong asked in a deep voice.
"Hehe," Governor Yang smiled to himself, nodded at Governor Hong and said, "The matter of the Wenxiang Sect, let's put it aside for a while, after this Governor has completed the task of recruiting the people's army given to me by the Holy Lord, this Governor will instruct the two of you to go all out to track down the Wenxiang Sect!" ”
For this boss, Governor Hong felt very helpless. The two left the Governor's Mansion disappointed, and Governor Hong said to Xu Liang apologetically: "Guozhong, I didn't expect Governor Yang to have such an attitude. The matter of purging the Wenxiang Sect is only afraid that it will not be able to be carried out for a while. But don't worry, I'll bring it up to Governor Yang again when I have the chance. ”
Xu Liang sneered, and no longer had any illusions about Yang He. He looked at Governor Hong and said hesitantly: "Lord Hong, you are also the governor of Shaanxi, and you can't solve the affairs of the entire northwest, but you can still call the shots in the affairs of Shaanxi Province." Otherwise, let's take a pot of the Smelling Fragrance Sect forces in Shaanxi Province first? ”
Governor Hong listened and was moved. After pondering for a long time, Governor Hong shook his head slightly and said, "It's still not appropriate." Most of the rebellious militias are in Shaanxi Province, and if the Shaanxi Provincial Government makes a big effort to eliminate the Wenxiang Sect, it will inevitably alarm those militias that have temporarily stopped. This is particularly detrimental to Governor Yang's appeasement plan. Wait, wait. ”
When Xu Liang heard this, he looked at Governor Hong helplessly, and Xu Liang was deeply disappointed by Governor Hong's compromise.
Xu Liang returned to Pingliang Mansion disappointed, and Huang Daozhou, the official of Pingliang, followed into Xu Liang's study.
"How is it, has Governor Yang agreed?" Huang Daozhou asked.
Xu Liang glanced at him, shook his head in disappointment, and pouted: "Our high-ranking Governor Yang said that it is the overall situation to appease the people's army, and to maintain the stability of the northwest ground, we are not allowed to do anything to the Wenxiang Sect!" ”
Huang Dao was stunned, then nodded slowly, and said, "Governor Yang said this, from his point of view, it is not wrong. ”
Xu Liang glared and shouted, "Which side are you on?" ”
Huang Daozhou said embarrassedly: "The lower officials are just talking about things. ”
"So that's how it goes?" Huang Daozhou asked.
Xu Liang felt very tired, leaned comfortably on the Taishi's chair, and said helplessly: "Old man Yang He disagrees. Governor Hong was also timid and did not dare to make a move. In other words, the eldest and second on the ground in the northwest are not allowed to do it. What can we do if we are like this? ”
Zodiac Zhou blinked. After a long groan, he said, "It seems that the normal method will not work. Unless we get the instructions of the court, so that Governor Yang and Governor Hong can't resist, otherwise, we really can't do it. ”
Xu Liang also understood something, and asked, "Dao Zhou, you mean, let's write a recital directly to the saint?" Let the emperor issue a holy decree? ”
Huang Daozhou shook his head and said affirmatively: "In the eyes of the emperor and the ministers of the court, the words of Governor Yang and Governor Hong obviously carry more weight than your words in the palace. The two of them disagreed. No matter how good we are, it won't help. ”
"That's no way?" Xu Liang screamed, rubbed his eyebrows and said.
Huang Daozhou looked at Xu Liang, pondered for a while, suddenly smiled strangely, and said to Xu Liang: "Not really. ”
"Huh? Do you have a way? Xu Liang asked in surprise.
Huang Daozhou didn't answer directly, but paced a few steps in the room, and asked Xu Liang quietly: "Futai, I heard that the lower officials have a close relationship with Jinyiwei?" Jin Yiwei commanded Luo Yangxing to have some friendship with you? ”
Xu Liang nodded. Suddenly came to his senses and exclaimed in surprise: "Ah, do you want Jinyiwei to intervene?" ”
Huang Daozhou nodded and said, "Not bad." Jinyiwei criminal investigation of the world's people. Civil and military officials, supervise all lawlessness and chaos in the world. The Smelling Fragrance Sect is notorious, and I think Commander Luo would have known the news of the Northwest Smelling Fragrance Sect. Bound to be interested. Moreover, check out the paganism. This was originally a matter of Jinyiwei's part. ”
Xu Liang slapped his head and said secretly: How could I forget such an important matter! Bring out the brocade guard to do this. Not only can they block the mouths of Governor Yang and Governor Hong, but they will be dumb and eat coptis, and they can't talk about their bitterness.
If Jinyiwei wants to deal with the Wenxiang Sect, this shouldn't have much to do with my Pingliang prefect Xu Liang, right?
Xu Liang and Huang Daozhou looked at each other and smiled, smiling treacherously.
A day later, Duan Zhigang, the chief flag officer of the Jinyi Wei Xi'an Thousand Households, quietly entered the Xu Mansion, Xu Liang pulled Duan Zongqi into the study, and after making it so clear, Duan Zongqi quietly slipped out of the side door of the Xu Mansion.
After preparing everything that should be prepared, Xu Liang's mood finally cleared up for a few days. In the days when he was waiting for the Jinyi Wei to make Luo Yangxing reply, Xu Liang was in a good mood, and he always went to the prefect's yamen every day to hang around, and deliberately took the time to lead the third lady of Xu's mansion, Lou Xian'er, to the newly repaired dam to go boating, and ate an ordinary peasant meal at the farmer's house near the dam that day.
In short, all the people who have seen Xu Liang, the prefect of Pingliang, in the past few days know that Lord Xu is in a good mood.
Only Xu Liang and Lou Xian'er knew that most of Xu Liang's good mood was actually pretended. In fact, Xu Liang was very nervous, because he knew that his relationship with Jinyiwei had become estranged, and Luo Yangxing would not listen to him, and he was willing to go to the front desk as this gun that was used by others, Xu Liang had no confidence at all.
If Jin Yiwei can't slip his hands, or he doesn't accept the move, then Xu Liang has nothing to think about.
Xu Liang is busy every day, but he always feels that time flies too slowly.
After seven or eight days, when Xu Liang's patience was about to be exhausted, Duan Zhigang, the general banner of Jinyiwei, finally brought back the instructions of Luo Yangxing, the commander of Jinyiwei.
Commanding Locke's instructions were unwritten and purely oral.
Xu Liang called Huang Daozhou, the official of Pingliang, to a place and listened to the message of Luo Yangxing brought by Duan Zhigang.
"The commander said that he himself was very much in favor of the Wenxiang Sect." Duan Zongqi's expression was very strange, with a hint of hesitation and entanglement. He said that it was not impossible for Jinyiwei to come forward to organize this clean-up operation...... However, "
"But what?" Xu Liang and Huang Daozhou glanced at each other, and they both heard something wrong from Duan Zongqi's rambling reply. Based on what Xu Liang knew about the urine of the gang of officials in the capital, Xu Liang guessed that things were not so simple.
"However, Commander Luo said," Duan Zhigang glanced at Xu Liang carefully, even if the weather in May was not too hot, Duan Zongqi's face and neck were sweating. Looks nervous.
"The commander said that this purge cannot be organized directly in the name of Jin Jiwei." Duan Zhigang finally said.
Xu Liang said very generously: "Well, then do this in the name of Jin and Wei Xi'an Thousand Households, and the effect will be the same." ”
Duan Zhigang shook his head and said, "It can't be in the name of Xi'an Thousand Households." ”
Xu Liang was stunned, smiled and pointed at Duan Zhigang, and said, "Not in the name of Jinyiwei, nor in the name of Xi'an Qianhu?" What else is the brocade guard leading? Without the name of Jinyiwei to deter Yang Lao Pifu, how can he be cleared? ! ”
Huang Daozhou was also confused, and asked Duan Zhigang in surprise: "Duan Zongqi, what does Commander Luo mean?" ”
Duan Zhigang looked at Xu Liang carefully, suddenly his face turned red, he slowly stretched out his hand, pointed at himself, and then looked at Xu Liang and Huang Daozhou with an embarrassed face.
Xu Liang exclaimed in surprise: "You are a good old man, what are you blushing for?" ”
Duan Zhi was just embarrassed for a while, and explained helplessly: "No, it's me!" ”
"What are you?" Xu Liang pouted.
At this time, Huang Daozhou seemed to understand, looked at Duan Zhigang with wide eyes and surprise, and asked, "Duan Zongqi, don't you want to tell us that Lord Luo means to let you organize this purge, right?" ”
Duan Zongqi breathed a sigh of relief, "Lord Huang, that's exactly what it means!" ”
"What?!" Xu Liang was almost so shocked that he jumped up from his chair, pointed at Duan Zongqi and exclaimed, "You?!" A little-known Jinyi Wei General Banner? ”
Duan Zongqi's face was as red as a monkey's buttocks, and he stammered and explained: "Our Commander Luo said that this time to clean up the Wenxiang Sect, it was said to the outside world that I, the little Jinyi Wei Zongqi, accidentally discovered many strongholds of the Wenxiang Sect and made meritorious contributions, so I recklessly organized this cleanup operation. In this case, even if Yang He, the governor of the three sides, or the adults in the capital, ask about it afterwards, they can give them a passable explanation. Of course, these words are the result of the success of this purge operation. ”
Xu Liang listened and asked rhetorically, "What if it fails?" ”
Duan Zongqi's face turned pale, and he said uglyly: "Then, Commander Luo will never admit that this operation was approved by him." At the same time, there is no longer me Duan Zhigang in the entire Jinyi Wei system. ”
Xu Liang was shocked. After thinking about it carefully, I understood Luo's cunning and sinister intentions. For such an important matter, Xu Liang was strange at first, why didn't he even have a single approval, everything relied on oral transmission?
In retrospect, Luo Yang's trick is really clever. Oral transmission, so as to avoid leaving evidence, no matter what the result is afterwards, Luo Yangxing can be sure in one bite, he has never said such a thing! At the same time, if this thing is done, Jinyiwei will undoubtedly make a great contribution. If this thing fails, then Luo Yangxing only needs to sacrifice a small general flag, and he can't hurt his muscles and bones.
Clever, really clever.
Xu Liang's face became ugly, and he looked at Duan Zhigang's eyes as if he was about to eat people: "Then tell me, how many people did Jinyiwei dispatch in this cleanup?" ”
Duan Zongqi cautiously stretched out a slap, and said in the future: "That's it, just the fifty brothers under my hands......"
"Your sister!" Xu Liang scolded. (To be continued......)
