Chapter 329: Loyal Old Prince! [2 more]

Chu Yi glanced at the servant lightly, waved his hand slightly, and saw Jinyiwei and Dongchang Fanzi standing solemnly behind him, and then Chu Yi turned over and dismounted.

Cao Shaoqin was slightly stunned, but seeing Chu Yi dismount, Cao Shaoqin naturally dismounted as soon as possible.

British Mansion

The servant hurriedly entered the mansion, first to show the steward of the mansion, and then led by the steward to see Zhang Mao.

After all, in the huge Guogong Mansion, the servants below want to ask to see Zhang Mao, but it is not so easy, if there is no important matter, just the stewards of the layers will stop these servants.

But now that Chu Yi led Jinyiwei and Dongchang Fanzi to appear outside the Guogong Mansion, as long as they are fools, they know which is more important, so the managers at that level and level are almost the first to make it clear.

It was only a matter of moments before the servant arrived in front of the British Duke Zhang Mao.

"Guogong, Chu Yi is asking to see you outside the mansion!"

Zhang Mao couldn't help but raise his eyebrows when he heard this, and said in surprise: "Oh, Chu Yi really came to my British mansion, go, go with the old man to meet this chief manager!" ”

It could be seen that Zhang Mao was not surprised at all by Chu Yi's arrival, and his expression was very calm.

The steward who was accompanying Zhang Mao stepped forward, helped Zhang Mao to get up, and said, "Grandpa Guo, Chu Yi came here at this time, what does he mean, it won't be ......?"

Zhang Mao smiled slightly, waved his hand and said, "Don't think things are so bad, things are not that complicated." ”

The steward helped Zhang Mao and said as he walked forward: "It's that my subordinates think too much, Chu Yi has always acted decisively, if he really wants to deal with our British Mansion, then at this time, it should be Dongchang and Jinyiwei who rushed directly into the mansion, instead of coming to see the old prince according to the etiquette!" ”

Soon passed through the hall a few times, and at this time, a group of people appeared behind Zhang Mao in front of the gate of the British Mansion, and saw Chu Yi and others standing in front of the mansion behind them from a distance.

His gaze swept over the Dongchang and Jinyi guards behind Chu Yi, Zhang Mao's eyes finally fell on Chu Yi, and said with a slight smile: "When did the chief manager return to Jingshi, the old man is slightly unwell, and he has lost his welcome, please forgive me!" ”

Chu Yi glanced at Zhang Mao, and saw that Zhang Mao was supported by the steward beside him, and it looked like he was a little unwell, so he smiled slightly, walked forward a few times to Zhang Mao's approach, and bowed: "Chu Mou only recently returned to Beijing, and he accidentally heard that the old man was in poor health, so he came to visit, but he wanted to ask the old man to forgive his sins!" ”

Zhang Mao slightly turned sideways to invite Chu Yi into the house, but Chu Yi walked side by side with Zhang Mao, only to hear Zhang Mao sigh: "The old man's body is not as good as day by day, and if he is not careful, he will occasionally feel cold, and he will not see much good after procrastination for half a month!" ”

Chu Yi said with a smile: "It's just a cold, but for the old man, it's nothing, Chu has studied the medical book for a while, why don't you wait for the old man to be treated!" ”

Zhang Mao raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "If this makes it, the old man has already asked the imperial doctor for diagnosis and treatment, and if he uses the medicine for a few days, it will be almost fine." ”

Between the words, before I knew it, I was in the living room.

After the two sat down, the maid served tea and quietly retreated, and only the housekeeper who accompanied Zhang Mao and Cao Shaoqin stood behind the two of them in the living room.

Zhang Mao looked at Chu Yi and said: "Seeing the overseer, the old man's heart that has been hanging for a few days can be put down, with the overseer sitting in the Beijing Division, there will be no chaos if you want to come to the Beijing Division!" ”

Chu Yi put down the teacup in his hand and looked at Zhang Mao and said, "The old man really knows the world without leaving home!" ”

As if he didn't hear the sarcasm in Chu Yi's words, Zhang Mao smiled and said: "Not long ago, Mu Zhai Gong Xie Qian came to see the old man and tried to persuade the old man to support the new king, but he was rejected by the old man. ”

When Chu Yi left Beijing before, he did entrust Zhang Mao to assist the Son of Heaven, but it was obvious that Zhang Mao did not do his best.

But although Zhang Mao said that he didn't do his best, Chu Yi didn't have anything to do with Zhang Mao, because there was nothing wrong with what Zhang Mao did, and if he really wanted to say it, it was just inaction in this matter.

If this were someone else, maybe the sin would not lead to death, but it would definitely be remembered by the Son of Heaven for a lifetime, and it would be difficult to get ahead.

However, Zhang Maogui was a British duke, served several generations of emperors, and as the head of the nobles, he had great prestige in the army, and even the Son of Heaven had to rely on his prestige to appease many nobles.

It can be said that as long as Zhang Mao does not take the initiative to jump out and rebel, the Son of Heaven has to rely on Zhang Mao, the British duke.

With a light cough, Zhang Mao said to the steward beside him: "Steward Lu, you go to the study and get the brocade box where I stored the secret letter!" ”

The steward standing beside Zhang Mao responded and walked out of the living room quickly.

At this time, Zhang Mao stroked his beard and said: "The old man and the Dingguo duke, after all these days, they finally lived up to the trust of the overseer and reorganized the Beijing camp, otherwise, the old man is really not good to see the overseer." ”

That is to say, Zhang Mao and others have a very high prestige in the Beijing camp, and it is not wrong for Chu Yi to hand over the reorganization of the Beijing camp to Zhang Mao and others.

The army is intertwined, and if Chu Yi comes to a one-size-fits-all approach, I am afraid that if this Beijing battalion wants to have combat effectiveness, I don't know when it will have to wait.

After all, the generals in the army in this era are all from family history, and nine out of ten are from the noble or generalist family, which is exactly the case, although the noble line is said to have lost power in the court, but in the army has not completely become a passerby.

Without the support of these generals, Chu Yi would not have the ability to clone countless people, but only relying on the noble lineage, Chu Yi would be able to control the entire Beijing camp from top to bottom.

Coupled with Chu Yi's mixing of sand, Chu Yi was not worried that the Xungui Group would control the Beijing camp by reorganizing the Beijing camp, so that the military power would naturally be held by the Son of Heaven and the Xungui Group.

Unless all the nobles can unite together, there is a little possibility of overthrowing the Son of Heaven, but if the Xungui group really has such a concerted mind, then it is probably impossible for the civilian group to suppress the Xungui group to that extent.

Whether it is Taizu or Chengzu, the strategy they left behind is to pay equal attention to civil officials and nobles, civil and political affairs, and military honors to control the military and restrain each other.

The two arms of the Son of Heaven, one is the civilian clique, the other is the Xungui clique, as a result of the change in the civil fort, the Xungui clique suffered heavy casualties, and since then it has been in a slump, but the power of the civilian clique has increased greatly, and the military power is also in the hands of the hand.

Since then, the great tomorrow who has broken his arm has had to work hard to support the inner servants around him to fight against the civilian bureaucracy.

As he was talking, he saw the Lu steward coming with a brocade box.

The brocade box was placed on the coffee table, and Zhang Mao slowly opened the brocade box, which contained a dozen rosters.

I saw Zhang Mao take out the roster and hand it to Chu Yi and said: "Lord Chu, this is the roster of the generals of the Beijing camp backed up by the old man, and after the overseer reviews it, it will be sent to the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies and the Military Department for archiving!" ”

However, after Chu Yi took over the roster, Zhang Mao took out a thin roster from the brocade box, handed it to Chu Yi with a neutral expression, and said: "This roster was specially sorted out by the old man, I hope it can be useful to the overseer!" ”

Chu Yi glanced at Zhang Mao with some doubts, obviously not quite understanding what the purpose of this roster that Zhang Mao had specially sorted out was and what use it was for him.

However, when Chu Yi opened the roster, he couldn't help but shrink his eyes, and the names of several of the generals in the army were very familiar to Chu Yi.

After the reorganization, the Beijing battalion had a total of 18 battalions, which were composed of 18 commanders and hundreds of subordinate commanders, generals, guerrilla generals, and other generals.

And on this roster are the names of three admirals, ten commanders, and dozens of generals and guerrilla generals.

The reason why Chu Yi is very familiar with it is because among the information investigated by Dongchang and Jinyiwei, some of them have been bribed by Xie Qian, Jiang Mian and others to rebel and be used by Xie Qian, Jiang Mian and others.

Chu Yi looked at this roster, which could be said to be more detailed and complete than the investigations of Dongchang and Jinyiwei, and this alone could see how deep the power of the British government in the army was.

If it weren't for the fact that he had a deep background in the army, it would be absolutely impossible for the British Duke to know all about the actions of so many generals in the army.

At the same time, Chu Yi was also deeply amazed by the means of the British duke, worthy of being an old and strong British duke, standing in the court for decades, as stable as Mount Tai, no matter how the emperor changed in the court, but this Beijing camp was in the hands of the British duke Zhang Mao for decades.

This roster is a clear proof that Zhang Mao showed favor to Chu Yi and the Son of Heaven.

Of course, if Jiang Mian, Xie Qian and others succeed this time, I believe that the British Duke has definitely prepared another roster.

As for the roster, Chu Yi didn't have to think about it to know that it must be generals in the army who were attached to him, such as Han Kun and Cheng Xiangwu.

Zhang Mao, who was brushing his beard, saw the change in Chu Yi's expression in his eyes, and the corners of his mouth curled slightly: "I don't know if this roster is useful to Lord Chu!" ”

Chu Yi laughed when he heard this: "It's useful, it's really useful, but the British Duke is bothered, I think that if Your Majesty knows that the British Duke is so loyal, he will definitely be extremely happy in his heart, and there will be a generous reward at that time!" ”

Zhang Mao said humbly: "This duke does not dare to take credit, the British government is in the same vein as the country, and the royal honor and disgrace are shared, but it is the duty of the ministers to share the worries for His Majesty, how dare to ask for merit and reward!" ”

[The second more is sent, well, there should be four more drops, ask for a monthly pass, and give a reward. ] 】
