Chapter 289: A Real Chess Piece

Uncle Zheng has been very busy all day, originally what he wanted to do was to make a hammer deal, the process was simple and rude, just to achieve the result he wanted.

But under all kinds of coincidences, the whole thing has turned from the original "simple and rude" to "strategizing".

This feeling is like you originally wanted to go to the poor and sour Xiucai's house in the village to ask for a name for your newborn son, who would have thought that you just pushed open the door, but found that Yao Zizhan was hungry and fainted at the door of your house.

Originally, he only needed to hang a bag of salted meat and a bag of Xiaohong to give to poor Xiucai, but now he needs to boil two buckets of water to bathe Yao Shi, and at the same time have to cook, one meat and two vegetables and then knock a chicken soup, and then he has to go to the township to get half a pot of wine and come back;

Let Master Yao eat, drink, wash well, and Master Yao will help you choose the child's name, and after taking it, the person who knows it will also tell you what the meaning of the name he has taken;

You don't understand, but you still think it's amazing.

Subsequently, Yao Shi also left a letter asking your child to go to Qianguo to find him when he becomes an adult.

It's still that thing, you just wanted to give your child a name.

The price paid,

The only meat dish fried with bacon is the chicken, the chicken is from the hen, the vegetarian dish is grown in the field, and the wine is also made with the money in the original red envelope.

But what was originally simple and even a little rough suddenly became much more beautiful.

The only thing you need is a few more trips back and forth.

Uncle Zheng is busy with this trip now.

The reward is mainly silver money, of course, there are also silk and satin cloth, which can be used as currency in this era, as for wine and meat, first, there is not enough time to prepare, and second, it is not suitable for indulgence at this time.

The princess wore a gorgeous costume and accompanied Uncle Zheng, first condolences and rewarded the soldiers and horses in the city, and then went to the north and south camps.

This scene is quite like the appearance of the head of state with the first lady.

The feedback received, naturally, was excellent.

The Marquis of Jingnan is a god in the army, so Uncle Zheng is a more down-to-earth idol, and you can clearly feel the worship of these sergeants for you.

Moreover, the world of Qiu Bamen has a kind of black and white meaning, after all, it is a person who lives with his head on his waist, and he likes to drink wine today and get drunk today, and he wants to be happy and simple.

Uncle Zheng has always won battles, and his achievements are there, and at the same time, this time the big guy followed Uncle Zheng into the city to quell the rebellion, which was also a meritorious service, and now he has received an actual reward, and his heart is even more surrendered.

The Marquis of Jingnan is full of self-destruction, but his prestige in the army is still unparalleled, and it is precisely for this reason that the ethics and morality of the three outlines and five constants are all empty for these soldiers who lick the blood from the knife edge, and the person who can lead them to win the battle and get rewards is the object of their hearts and minds.

In addition, the princess is on the side, the dignified princess of a country, standing meekly behind Uncle Zheng, this sense of picture really stimulates this group of Qiu Ba to be so excited that they want to go crazy.

This is not that primitive excitement, because no one dares to look at the princess with lewd eyes, and no one dares to blaspheme, not because of her identity as a princess of Dachu, but because she is a woman of Pingye Bo.

And this agitation is kind of on the spiritual level.

Uncle Zheng is a living example,

Relying on his own struggle, he walked to the pinnacle of life and married Bai Fumei.

And Uncle Zheng also worked tirelessly to give four speeches that night.

Although each speech was not long, after the speech, Xiong Lijing could see that the eyes of the group of soldiers below seemed to be breathing fire.

Yes, Spitfire.

The charm of speech and language can spread the charm of personality as much as possible, infect a large group of people around them, and make their souls begin to "tremble".

In the world that Uncle Zheng was familiar with, there was the passion of Adolf's speech, and the German, who was known for his rigor, raised his hands neatly.

Later, before the college entrance examination, most schools will invite some speech masters to give students a tube of chicken blood.

And here, in this era, because of the restrictions on cultural transmission, the people here, including these soldiers, have not many channels for them to receive information, which means that they have not experienced that kind of "chicken soup tide" or "inspirational Tao";

In the hearts of most of them, in this area, it is actually an undeveloped virgin land.

They are accustomed to conquest, to galloping horses, to beheading the enemy in front of them, but their spiritual life is more barren than that of ordinary people.

In this day and age,

Only the aristocracy, the so-called elite, was qualified to receive cultural edification at the spiritual level.

Not just in the country of Yan,

Qian, Chu, Jin,

Even in the barbarians, savages, and mountains, it is the same.

So, once you make them moved, this kind of touching will last for a long time, even engraved in the bottom of your heart for a long, long time.

"I was originally just the head of a small city in Beifeng County, and my background was even inferior to yours.........

I don't have a family background,

I have no relatives or friends,

All I have is a rusty knife in my hand.........

I can rely on military merit to be knighted, and you can too!

I, I can marry Princess Da Chu and go home to warm the kang, you can too!

Do you see this knife?

This is a sword from your majesty,

Under the guidance of His Majesty and the Black Dragon Banner,

Follow me

Follow Bemble,

Benber's today will be your tomorrow!

Ben Bo believes that in the future, we will have the opportunity to go to the battlefield together, and when the time comes, Ben Bo will work with you to exchange the head of the enemy for everyone's glory and wealth, and for everyone's glory and ancestry.

In exchange,

you

you

you

And you

You guys

We

Seal the wife and the shadow,

Princes of Bandai!

Dayan, Wansheng!! ”

"Dayan Wansheng!"

"Dayan Wansheng!"

And at this time, the group of guards who had been prepared for a long time would shout at this time:

"Hirano Mankatsu!"

The surrounding sergeants will immediately follow suit:

"Hirano Mankatsu!"

"Hirano Mankatsu!"

Straightforwardly reining in the hearts of the army, this is too ugly, and it is really a fool to treat others as fools, but if you establish all the premises under the banner of loyalty to Your Majesty, then others will have no way to blame.

And for these sergeants,

His Majesty the Emperor is too far away,

And Uncle Hirano, but in front of him.

To Uncle Zheng's surprise, the two battalions in the north and south treated him more enthusiastically than the Yan army's soldiers and horses.

And the deep-seated reason for this reason is because under the command of Pingye Bo, the real Yan people are very few, and the Jin army and barbarian soldiers occupy more than eighty percent.

Da Yan entered the Jin Land, if it is said that the eunuchs of the great clans of the Jin Land are relatively tolerant, then for these Jin soldiers and horses, it is mainly to be vigilant.

Use it, you have to use it, but beware, it is inevitable.

The rest of the Yan generals, they also have Jin military camps under their command, but they are really just used as auxiliaries or cannon fodder, and the descendants are still their own Yan army headquarters, only Uncle Zheng really likes to use foreign soldiers, and they are regarded as the same, which can be described as a unique clear stream among the many Yan army generals stationed in Jin.

………

"Huh."

Uncle Zheng, who was sitting in the carriage, handed the second letter in his hand to the princess who was knocking his leg.

The princess took it, glanced at it, and said with a smile:

"It's also sincere."

The two letters, respectively from the generals of the two battalions in the north and south of Yingdu, express their admiration for Uncle Hirano and their wish to one day make contributions under Uncle Zheng's command.

"Xianggong this time, it's really a huge gain, these two battalions in the north and south, the soldiers and horses are more than 10,000."

The princess's heart was very happy, she left the honor of the princess and followed the man in front of her to Yandi, in essence, she wanted to rely on this man to fight for a better life than herself.

Therefore, she is really like a little daughter-in-law who runs a house, and every time she has any income in her family, she will have a great sense of satisfaction.

Uncle Zheng shook his head and said:

"It's not that simple, it's just a letter, where can it be taken seriously."

Originally, they also wanted to give Uncle Zheng a gift, although Uncle Zheng originally intended to reward them, but one yard is one yard, one is a public reward and the other is a private friendship.

But Uncle Zheng was still busy on the way to Beijing and refused.

This kind of thing is unavoidable, and Uncle Zheng's snow customs is still the best in it.

Under Siniang's strategy, during the New Year's holidays, the closer ones will send Jingnanhou and Li Fusheng to them, and the farther ones, even those who go to the capital, will never fall, and will not give gifts according to personal circumstances, not cheesy gold and silver, but hearts.

"Can't be taken seriously?" The princess was obviously a little incomprehensible, for yesterday she had seen with her own eyes the love of the soldiers for her husband.

"The Six Princes' firm, you know, right?"

"How can I not know this, the pomp on the day of the wedding of the six princes directly made my wedding pomp also follow up two grades, that is, the Fan family, isn't it also on the line of the six princes?"

"Well, to put it this way, the world thinks that his eyeliner is all over the world, as if there are his people everywhere, and there are also his secret stakes, but this is not the case, because even if it is the secret spy department or the silver armor guard or your Da Chu's phoenix nest, there is a national power behind it, and there is an orthodox banner, and it is impossible to do this point that seems to be blooming everywhere.

At the end of the day, those who appear to be his are not actually his people.

Back then, His Majesty asked the Marquis of Jingnan to destroy the Min family, but he did not touch the secret properties of the Min family, and those industries naturally fell under the name of Xiao Liuzi.

It's because Xiaoliu also has the blood of the ordinary Min family on his body after all, but this is just an addition. ”

"Timber?"

"Yes, add heads, businessmen pursue profits, of course, the difference between people and beasts is also that people will be affectionate, but the Min family is gone, even if those shopkeepers are still very nostalgic for the Min family, how much this love can be transferred to Xiao Liuzi, it is not yet known.

First, Emperor Yan just destroyed the Min family, although he did not attack the local shopkeepers of the original Min family, but the knife was hung at any time;

Under the compulsion of this knife, these shopkeepers actually have to be loyal to Xiao Liuzi whether they want to or not, even if they only maintain this on the surface.

Because even if Xiao Liuzi looked unfavored at that time, at least, he was a prince.

Those shopkeepers are also human spirits, and they know that if they go to another master or find other backers, they may come down in the next moment, a hat to liquidate the remnants of the Min family.

Moreover, Xiao Liuzi's own intelligence is also not bad, and his wrist is also very powerful, which may not be known to outsiders, but those real big shopkeepers should understand, of course, this article is also an addition.

The big wedding in Yanjing was magnificent, with money rain and silk roads, which caused a sensation in the entire capital and stretched to all countries.

In your opinion, and in the eyes of many people, it is Xiao Liuzi who turned over all the hole cards in his hand to prove to the court that he is not an idle prince, and he has the strength to win the heir.

But it's not actually like that.

It is not because of these hole cards that he dares to be so arrogant and almost declare that he wants to take the heir;

It's because he wants to claim the heir, so these hole cards will become his.

Got it? ”

"I kind of get it."

"Actually, it's very simple, the shopkeepers of those firms, after so many years of development, have already become a new Min family, which can be called princes everywhere.

They have their own power, their own business, their own connections, their own family, and their own business sphere of influence, why should they find a father for themselves?

Even if you find a nominal father, how can you be really good to this father?

There is no filial son in front of the bed for a long time, so he is still his father.

And those new science and technology scholars, yes, that's right, Xiao Liuzi is their benefactor, but Dayan is not a big cadre, the Qianguo scholars and doctors have long used their rules, and for a hundred years, they have woven a dense net, and those who do not respect the master will not be able to mix in that circle at all.

But Da Yan is different, these new science and technology scholars will now act for Xiao Liuzi with their conscience, but when they have been immersed in officialdom for a long time, how can they continue to care about an idle prince?

Officialdom is a place where you eat your conscience, and you eat your own conscience.

So

This is the real power of Xiao Liuzi, which seems to be huge, but in fact it is loose, like the sand that cannot be grasped. ”

Xiong Lijing understood, and said:

"So, this is a borrowing?"

"Yes, taking advantage of the situation, because he made it clear that the chariot and horse wanted to seize the heir, and with the temptation of the dragon's skill in front, those who followed him would stand more closely by his side, and they would evolve into a force represented by him.

If Xiao Liuzi didn't show the momentum of seizing the heir and didn't suppress the East Palace, look at the Fan family, would he help me rob you wholeheartedly.

Therefore, in Dayan, in Dajin, it seems that there are people from Xiaoliuzi everywhere, but in fact, they are not his people, businessmen, talk about harmony and make money, talk about today's loss is to make money tomorrow, they are not like Qianshou, they are waiting to take a day's money to provide for their wives and children to eat.

If you look at these two letters, they seem to indicate that they want to follow me, but they are only a meaning, and no one can live in a dream.

If one day, I win a big victory and lead a large army to force Yingdu, they may take advantage of the situation to turn against me, but if one day, I am down, they will often beat me harder than others. ”

"Brother Huang once said that it is better to take advantage of the situation than to become a situation."

There are many nobles in Great Chu, so much so that if the court of Chu wants to do something, it has to discuss with those nobles.

In essence, what the regent did in the Chu State was actually a matter of centralization, but it was not as extreme as Emperor Yan had at the beginning.

Uncle Zheng nodded and said:

"Therefore, this is what I did at the Snow Customs, where the soldiers and the people ate me and drank me, I clothed them, I sent their children to school, and I treated their old people;

They have to rely on me to survive, and they live better than others, so they can't lose me, because I'm all they have.

Taking advantage of the situation is like borrowing the wind, which seems to be lively, but in fact it cannot last long. ”

"I see, then you use me?"

"It's just to borrow your momentum, but I'm not borrowing this momentum to purely show off, I want to take the opportunity to get something practical and make our family foundation thicker."

The conversation in the carriage continued.

Outside the carriage,

A personal guard rode back and reported the situation to Gao Yi, who immediately rode to the carriage.

"Uncle."

Zheng Fan lifted the curtain of the car.

"The mission has gone the other way."

Zheng Fan nodded and lowered the curtain.

After rewarding the three armies last night, early this morning, Uncle Zheng got up and left Yingdu with his guards, without waiting for Zhang Yuanshan and Feng Guan to them, and in order to prevent them from catching up, he also deliberately misled, and now the two groups of people are no longer on the same road.

Xiong Lijing leaned on Uncle Zheng's shoulder and asked curiously:

"Xianggong, why don't you join them?"

"Because I'm going to a place, it's a bit of a detour, and they're there, and it's a little inconvenient."

"Where are you going?"

"Calendar City."

From Yingdu to Yanjing, the nearest road is impossible to pass through Litian City, because Litian City is at the southern end of the road, and if you deliberately cross from there, it is equivalent to going around half an ellipse.

Uncle Zheng stretched out his hand, took out an iron box from his arms, took out a cigarette, flicked it lightly on the back of his hand, and said slowly:

"This is what I originally planned to go, even if there was no such thing as Yingdu, I would have go, and, in fact, in the original plan, the effect of Yingdu was far less than there, but there were some accidents, which caused some changes in things.

But that place,

I still have to go. ”

Xiong Liqing knew what Zheng Fan wanted to do and what she wanted to express to the court, she would watch and think, and at the same time, Zheng Fan even told her the identity of the savage king, and he would not hide these things from her.

But what makes Xiong Lijing puzzled is that if Yingdu's matter is just a matter of doing it easily but has a greater effect, what is the place that was originally put in the plan and really wanted to be used to do it in order to obtain the purpose?

made the imperial court feel jealous, so that the imperial court did not dare to continue to collect the military power of the local army leaders, and it would not really tear its face.

"What are you going to do?"

Uncle Zheng's gaze suddenly sank,

Road:

"Go and let some people know,

The death of the cuckoo,

And some people haven't forgotten it. ”
