Chapter 288 [Grain Guard]
When Taishi Xiao heard Han Xuandao recommend Ling Lei as the supervisor, he first narrowed his eyes, then a smile appeared on his face, he glanced at Han Xuandao slightly, and was silent.
There was a hint of surprise in the emperor's eyes, he glanced at Ling Lei, who was a little overwhelmed beside him, and asked, "Why does Han Aiqing have this idea?" ”
Han Xuandao said with a straight face: "The minister thinks that although the officials of Yichun should be thoroughly investigated, at this moment, it is not appropriate to move too much, let alone make a fuss, thus interfering with the real disaster relief matters." The minister originally wanted to recommend Changde Hou as the supervision envoy, but the Hou Ye had a good reputation, and if he really wanted to take this position and go to Yichun County, it would make the officials even more panicked......! ”
Changde Hou Cao Yin is a member of the royal family, because the commanders of the five major imperial forest armies can be exempted from the court, and there is no need to go to the court for major military affairs, and Cao Yin, as the commander of the wolf armor battalion, naturally does not have to listen to the government in the court.
The emperor let out an "oh" and said, "Why do you recommend Ling Lei?" ”
"Father-in-law Ling is righteous, and wise, and he is the personal person of the saint, and Father-in-law Ling rarely goes out of Beijing, and when he goes to Yichun County, it will not cause much movement...... The minister thought that Ling Gonggong would be able to supervise impartially and was actually the most suitable candidate. Han Xuandao admonished.
Of course, these words are just words, but there are two sentences that clearly express the meaning.
Ling Lei is the personal person of the saint, that is to say, although Ling Lei is just a eunuch, but he went to Yichun County, that is, on behalf of the emperor, although the imperial power is not very majestic in the heart of the family, but on the surface, the emperor is still very respectful, this representative of the emperor's supervisor can still ask about some things and no one dares to easily interfere.
Since the position of superintendent cannot be held by too conspicuous figures such as Chang Dehou, and ordinary officials without any prestige background, let alone officials with partial family backgrounds, it is not a bad choice to elect a personal eunuch of the emperor to hold the position.
In Su Guanya's eyes, a small eunuch naturally can't stop the thorough investigation of the officials of the ministry, but in the eyes of Fan He and the others, since the officials dispatched by the ministry can no longer be changed, it is a road to make a fuss about the supervision envoy, and a eunuch is naturally easy to buy and control when he arrives at his own territory.
"What do you Aiqing see?" The emperor stroked his beard and asked calmly.
He Qingzhi's plan has been decided, as long as Ling Lei is retracted at that time, he can naturally use his hand to deal with the officials of the ministry, so he immediately said: "The minister thinks that Ling Gonggong is really the best candidate!" ”
Fan Yunao and He Qingzhi's general thoughts naturally agreed.
Although Su Guanya also understood that the He Fan family would definitely buy Ling Lei at that time, he knew even more that if he opposed it at this time, if he selected a strong supervision envoy again, it would be more difficult for the officials to start doing things, and a eunuch would always be much easier to deal with, and when he arrived in Yichun County, he would vigorously collect evidence, as long as he got the evidence, even if Ling Lei was selfish, he would not dare to defend it too much in front of the evidence, so he also stepped forward and said: "The minister also thinks that Ling's father-in-law can take on this responsibility!" ”
Ling Lei was mixed at this time.
Xi is naturally a deacon and eunuch, and he can serve as a supervisor by mistake, which is a very breezy thing, and in this position, it is naturally indispensable for someone to get some benefits at that time. This eunuch is poorly served, and there are some examples in Yan Kingdom, but there are not many, and he is very lucky to be able to hold such an important position.
The worry is that Yichun County is not a safe place now, and the clues in the court also show that the major families are preparing to take advantage of this flood to carry out an open and secret battle in Yichun County, and it is really not a good thing to get involved themselves.
The emperor groaned slightly, and finally said, "Ling Lei! ”
The deacon eunuch Ling Lei immediately knelt on the ground: "The slave is here!" ”
"I will let you serve as the supervision envoy and go to the Yichun County Supervision Department to thoroughly investigate the matter, and everything will be done in accordance with the Yan Law...... Don't disturb local officials, let alone indiscriminately set up charges when the evidence is insufficient! The emperor said slowly, his voice low: "But if there is really a black sheep who is a traitor, as soon as there is evidence, it must be severely punished!" ”
"Slaves obey!" Ling Lei said cautiously.
The emperor looked up at the Ministry of Industry: "Xiao Aiqing, as the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, the Yichun flood, I order you to immediately lead the water control talents from the Ministry of Industry to Yichun County to control the water." ”
Xiao Huaijin hurriedly lined up and said: "The minister obeys the order!" ”
Although he is the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, but he doesn't know anything about the water control project, the emperor issued an order, although he received the will, but he was a little apprehensive in his heart, after all, he wanted to go to Yichun County to control the water, but it was not a fun thing, in case something went wrong, he was not sure that there would be other families following behind to impeach him, and the situation over there was dangerous, and he didn't know if it was safe to go over this time.
Xiao Huaijin couldn't help but glance at his father, Xiao Taishi had already said: "Xiao Huaijin, there are many people in the Ministry of Industry who can control the water, and there are many talents in Yichun County who manage the river embankment, you lead the people, listen to their suggestions, and you will definitely control this flood and save the Li people ......!" ”
The emperor looked at Han Xuandao again and said, "Han Aiqing, you immediately go to Yichun County to release relief grain, there must be no mistake!" ”
Han Xuandao said respectfully: "Qi Song Sheng, the grain stored in the household department is the military food to be transported to the northwest battalion, and the northwest battalion has urged the household to produce food many times, and after this military grain is shipped out, there is not much food left, which is far from enough to deal with the disaster in Yichun." ”
The emperor frowned and said, "Not enough to deal with?" Do you want to let the victims starve to death? ”
Han Xuandao hurriedly said: "The Holy Lord is angry. The minister has an idea, he can take out forty percent of the military rations, go to Yichun County first, and order the counties to quickly raise grain and make up for the soldiers' rations, and the official warehouses in various places should also open warehouses to put grain ...... Yichun County! ”
"Then hurry up and do it." The emperor immediately said: "The disaster is like fire, and there is no delay." ”
"It's just ......!" Han Xuandao said slowly: "If the food can't be delivered in time, I'm afraid that General Xiao will be dissatisfied, and ...... Moreover, the official warehouses in various places want to release grain to Yichun County, and it is also necessary to have a warrant from the Holy Decree Cabinet......! ”
The emperor looked at Taishi Xiao and asked: "Taishi, I will issue an order to go to the northwest camp, because of the flood news in Yichun, the food of the soldiers will be delayed for a while, and in the name of the cabinet, you will issue a cabinet warrant to transfer grain from the official warehouses in various places to Yichun County for disaster relief ......!" He looked at Han Xuan and said, "Han Aiqing, you immediately issue an order in the name of the household department to raise food in various places and make up for the soldiers' rations, without delay!" ”
"Obey the order!" Han Xuandao said immediately.
Taishi Xiao frowned slightly, but finally said: "The old minister obeys the order!" ”
The emperor said: "Without further ado, the Ministry of Industry will send people to Yichun County today, as for the household relief grain, it must be shipped within two days, well, I almost forgot one thing, this duty of protecting the grain, the leopard battalion dispatched two thousand soldiers to guard, Jaw Qinglun is not in good health, Murong He will serve as the grain protection officer, full authority to supervise the Yichun grain affairs, and the leopard battalion will be temporarily stationed in Yichun County before the flood is calm, and cooperate with the defenders of Yichun City to maintain local order. ”
Taishi Xiao picked his eyelids and said, "Qi Sheng, there is something that the minister has not had time to report ......!" ”
"What?"
"Murong He, the commander of the Leopard Battalion Guard...... It's dead! Taishi Xiao said word by word.
The officials who didn't know about this matter were all shocked, but some of the officials who got the news also showed shock, and there was a whisper in the court, and the sudden death of the commander of the Leopard Raid Battalion Escort Army was by no means an ordinary trivial matter.
The emperor frowned: "When did it happen?" ”
"Last night!"
"How did you die?"
"Venerable Qi Song, this matter is still under investigation." He Qingzhi hurriedly said: "Murong He led people out of the city to conduct actual combat exercises, and was killed in the Moonlight Temple, and the detailed process in the middle, the ministers are still thoroughly investigating ......!" ”
The emperor pondered for a moment before he said, "Let's investigate this matter first, but this responsibility to protect the grain cannot be delayed...... Let Han Mo go, since Murong He was killed, Han Mo will temporarily take his place as the leader of the cavalry team, and then discuss ......! ”
To put it mildly, the ministers couldn't imagine that the emperor would let Han Mo be the leader of the guard army like this, saying that he was temporarily taking his place, but the royal forest army was a royal guard, and the emperor said so, so Han Mo's position as the leader of the guard army was naturally decided.
This decision naturally made the Manchu civil and military have both joys and sorrows, and many people felt that the emperor really liked that young man.
Taishi Xiao remained silent and did not raise objections, but said: "The Holy One is wise. Although Han Mo is still young, he is quite experienced in handling affairs, and he is the most suitable person to serve as the grain protection officer. ”
When Taishi Xiao said this, many people were even more puzzled, He Qingzhi's eyes rolled slightly, as if he had figured out something, and suddenly the corners of his mouth crossed an imperceptible sneer, but Han Xuandao Han Xuanchang brother frowned.
"The Holy One, the dog is scheduled to be married next month...... Han Xuanchang seemed to realize something, and came out to play, but before he finished speaking, Taishi Xiao had already said: "Lord Han, the big wedding is just a family matter, but this food protection is a state affair, and the difference between big and small is self-evident, right?" What's more, there is still a month before Han Mo's wedding, as long as the situation in Yichun County is stable quickly, it can catch up, even if it can't be in time, it is not impossible to push this wedding period back, right? ”
Han Xuanchang glanced at Taishi Xiao and said, "It's just ......!" ”
Han Xuandao had already come out and said: "Qi Sheng, the state affairs are important, compared with the disaster relief, Han Mo's marriage is a trivial matter, if it can't catch up with the time, the minister is willing to discuss with Lord Fan to postpone the marriage date and choose another good day." ”
The Emperor smiled and said, "This is very good, but it is difficult for you." ”
Taishi Xiao also smiled and said: "Lord Han, there is a clear distinction between public and private, and the old man admires it!" ”
……
After the dispersal of the dynasty, according to the resolution of the court, Xiao Huaijin, as the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, was to quickly select the officials from the Ministry of Industry to control the water, and immediately rushed to Yichun County to control the water.
In fact, the major families also understand that infighting is infighting, but the prerequisite is indeed to ensure that Yan Kingdom cannot have civil strife, flooding is a major event, and it is also the source of chaos that may be provoked, so it is urgent, even if the fighting will not stop, but the things that should be done must be done as soon as possible.
After Han Xuanchang dispersed, he immediately pulled Han Xuandao aside, frowned, and said, "Big brother, why did you agree to Mo'er go to Yichun County?" As long as you and I insist, the Hu family will also come forward to help us, so that Mo'er can be exempted from going out of Beijing, and someone else will be selected as a grain protection officer. I can't guess what the saint is thinking, but you and I should know the thoughts of Xiao Lao Fox. ”
Han Xuandao's expression was calm, and he said softly: "Do you think that the Xiao family wants to see that our marriage with the Fan family cannot be held as scheduled?" ”
"This is one of them." Han Xuanchang said worriedly: "But what I'm more worried about is that the Xiao family has other conspiracies. Although Mo'er has done a few things, after all, he is young, Yichun County must be a puddle of mud this time, and it is a very dangerous thing to throw Mo'er into the mud. ”
Han Xuandao shook his head and said: "I don't see it that way, although there is danger, it is also an opportunity." ”
"Opportunity?" Han Xuanchang was obviously very unhappy in his heart, "Big brother, I would rather not have such an opportunity." Mo'er's edge has been shown ......! He looked around, and then said in a low voice: "Murong He was suddenly killed this time, even if it wasn't Mo'er's doing, there will be many people who think that Mo'er is inseparable, especially the Xiao family's ......!" ”
"Do you think they dare to retaliate?" Han Xuandao's expression turned cold: "If they dare to hurt Xiao Wu, I, Han Xuandao, will definitely not show mercy!" ”
Although these words were gloomy, Han Xuanchang just sighed: "Big brother, if Mo'er is really killed by them, what is the use of our revenge?" I'm restless now, and I always feel that the Xiao family wants to design ...... indifference! ”
"Don't worry too much." Han Xuandao glanced at Han Xuanchang: "Xiao Wu is bringing two thousand soldiers and horses over, and that is the most elite army of my Yan Kingdom...... And there will definitely be someone in the West Flower Hall who will go with Xiao Wu this time, and it is not easy to harm Xiao Wu. Xiao Wu can take this opportunity to establish greater prestige in the army, and he can also monitor the movements of other families in Yichun County...... The Su family borrowed the officials of the Ministry to get in, the Xiao family had Xiao Huaijin, and the Fan He family was the landlord there, such a scene, if there was no Han family in it, it would be too lonely. ”
Han Xuanchang said: "Yichun is chaotic, and there are not many benefits, so we don't need to let Mo'er take risks." ”
"Interests?" Han Xuandao said lightly: "There are many things that cannot be seen at a glance. Xiao Wu was named the leader of the Protector Army, so it was possible to become the second Su Yuting...... Of course, this is beneficial to our Han family...... And if you want to gain a foothold in the Royal Forest Army, you must establish military merit and prestige, this truth, you should know better than me ......! ”
Han Xuanchang frowned and did not answer for a while.
As Han Xuandao said, this time the task of the grain guard officer is actually not a simple matter, now the most lacking thing in Yichun County is food, and this grain guard has become an extremely important and sensitive position, if everything goes well, Han Mo will naturally have a lot of credit, and he can indeed establish prestige in the army, and the prestige in the army is established by these actual military merits. However, once there is a mistake, the consequences are also extremely serious, and it is very likely that someone will take the opportunity to impeach and kill the head at the worst.
Of course, Han Xuanchang didn't want his only son to take such a serious risk.
"Don't think about it......!" Han Xuandao gently patted Han Xuanchang's shoulder: "If you don't enter Tiger Mountain, you won't get a tiger...... Xiao Wu is not so easy to deal with! ”
Han Xuanchang sighed lightly: "Is it irretrievable? ”
"He's your son, and he'...... Children and grandchildren of the Han family! Han Xuandao said lightly.
