Chapter 37, Cao Huachun, Jinyan, Selfishness
Dongji Factory.
"I've seen my father-in-law!"
Luo Chen bowed to Cao Huachun, who was dressed in brocade, white and fat.
Whether your acting skills are good or not depends on whether you want to be shameful or not.
The system is also, why not just arrange for him to be the emperor, it's a big deal to take the Ming Dynasty crazy in the end, how easy it is to flip the table and everyone hit the street together.
This Cao Huachun's righteous son is beautiful in the eyes of outsiders, but Cao Huachun's righteous son is so many, not every one of them is valued.
Cao Huachun sat under the tall bronze statue of the king of Hades, and said: "We have already seen the excerpt you handed into the palace, Your Majesty's anger has disappeared a lot, although you have done a good job in this matter, but you can only be regarded as useless and without fault."
Our family also knows that this matter has little to do with you, after all, you have just arrived in Beizhen Fusi to take office, and you are unlucky. But as courtiers, it is already a blessing to be able to share the worries of His Majesty, how can there be any complaints. ”
Luo Chen replied: "Be loyal to Your Majesty, and your subordinates don't need to worry about honor and disgrace." ”
Seeing that Luo Chen's attitude did not seem to be fake, Cao Huachun smiled with satisfaction: "What can you think of best, don't worry, Your Majesty, I will find an opportunity to help you explain." ”
The remaining problem in this case is the bad silver that was stolen by Huaiyin Shuangcha.
It's not a big problem, though. The fire set by the brocade guard has not yet reached the melting point of silver, it is just to burn the silver black, and then it can be cleaned, after all, in this era, don't expect how high the purity of silver is.
"Thank you, father!" Luo Chen smiled and said: "Recently, the child has got a few treasures, which are also rare, but unfortunately I am alone, these things are really useless to me, so I borrow flowers to offer Buddha, I hope my father-in-law can like it!" ”
Cao Huachun smiled and said, "I've been in the palace for so many years, and I haven't seen any treasures!" You can still think about your father-in-law, with this filial piety, your father-in-law is satisfied! ”
Luo Chen smiled but didn't say anything, and glanced sideways at Meng Fan, who was standing aside.
Meng Fan understood, walked to the desk in front of Cao Huachun with a wooden box that had been carried in his hand, put it down carefully, then opened the lid of the box, and then bowed down again.
As soon as the wooden box was opened, under the background of the candlelight, the treasure light flickered, dazzling and dazzling.
As Cao Huachun himself said, he has been in Da Nei for a long time, although Emperor Chongzhen is very poor, but he doesn't know how many rare treasures others have honored him, and ordinary jewelry is really not in his eyes, but at this time, he was not surprised.
"Ahh You? Cao Huachun looked at Luo Chen in surprise.
In Cao Huachun's impression, he knows best what the net background of this righteous son is, and it is absolutely impossible to take out so many treasures for nothing.
Then he suddenly thought of what Luo Chen said above, the person involved in this matter is a giant thief, so how many cases have been done over the years, there must be a lot of treasures......
He felt that he had understood, and he was really satisfied with Luo Chen's sensibility.
thought he could see through it, but he didn't say it, Cao Huachun pretended to be confused on the surface.
These things are naturally not Chu Hongliu's so-called accumulated family foundation, after all, under the fire, in addition to gold and silver, it did burn a lot of good things. These are just a drop in the bucket he got in Nanjing, and he can wholesale them if he wants.
Luo Chen smiled: "It's just some mundane things, please don't dislike it." ”
Cao Huachun looked at Luo Chen's gaze a little kinder than before: "In this case, your filial father is not easy to live up to, so I will accept it for the time being." ”
Luo Chen then continued to talk to Cao Huachun for a while, and he re-mentioned the two cases of stealing silver and killing Jinyi Wei Qianhu.
Luo Chen's words changed: "The child still has something to ask?" ”
Cao Huachun was happy in his heart now, and said, "What's the matter, you say." ”
Luo Chen said: "Now there is a big chaos, natural disasters are continuous, the situation in the north has become a complete mess, the imperial court's disaster relief, silver, the court's money, and other expenditures are all supported by the two supports of Cao, rice and silver transported from the south of the Yangtze River.
In such a case, there is no room for error in the delivery of the silver.
But now in Jingshi, Shandong and other places, there are everywhere in the mountains and forests, making chaos for Kou and plundering and killing good people. These poor and crazy mud-legged people who play with their lives, if they continue to focus on Caoyin grain and rice like this time, it will be a difficult trouble for the imperial court.
However, the child is even more worried that now that the Liukou is in chaos, the Jingshi may not be in danger of being attacked by soldiers in the future. When the time comes, the thieves will send people to instigate those mountain bandits, and they will be able to pull up another army of tens of thousands of soldiers in an instant.
These hidden dangers are obvious, why has the imperial court not responded so far? ”
Luo Chen is not alarmist, in the original book, Yuan Chengzhi was elected as the leader of the Seven Provinces Alliance in Mount Tai, based on the bandits in Beizhili and Shandong, founded the Golden Snake Battalion, and finally put himself under the command of the thieves.
Cao Huachun glanced at Luo Chen deeply, and was silent, and the atmosphere was silent.
After a while, he said: "How can our family not know what you said, and how can the princes of the imperial court not know?" I'm not afraid to tell you clearly, the only one in the world who hasn't seen this is Your Majesty!
But I dare not say it, and no one else will say it, it is a thankless task, and to speak out is to offend people. In case His Majesty decides to send troops to suppress the bandits, who will he call? If you win, you don't have much credit, but if you lose, you will lose face and lose your future! ”
Now everyone knows how rotten the army of the Ming Dynasty is, it's okay to just bully the common people, and there are only a few elites who can really fight against the rogues, as for the three battalions that were once famous in the Beijing Division, there are only jokes left.
Cao Huachun had a warning in his eyes: "In his position, seek his position, don't put your mind too broad, your Shangguan Luo Yang is a really smart person." ”
Luo Chen smiled, disappreciated, and continued: "Father-in-law, let me also say a word of great rebellion. If we really wait until one day the thieves break through the capital, the Ming Dynasty is finished, what will happen to us?
Those civil officials and doctors turned their heads and knelt down, recognizing a new master, not only can their lives be saved, but they may even continue to be reused. But what about you, Father? This Ming Dynasty is finished again, Your Majesty is gone, what are you? ”
Cao Huachun stared at Luo Chen with a dead gaze, both angry and frightened in his heart.
What Luo Chen said was exactly what he had always realized in his heart, but he didn't dare to think about it.
The power of these eunuchs is just an extension of the imperial power, even Wei Zhongxian, who once leaned forward to the government and the opposition, is only a holy decree of the emperor. The imperial court is gone, the emperor is down, and they are nothing.
Even if you recognize the new master. They are not those civil servants and doctors, they can't rule the world, and they can't compile history books. The geldings who carry the lord are not as good as the dogs.
For others, the importance of this court is entirely determined by discipline. But for these eunuchs, there is almost no choice.
Even if Cao Huachun forced the palace to usurp the throne in the original book and wanted to establish King Cheng, in the final analysis, he still wanted to be the minister of the Ming Dynasty. The collusion with Dolgon was just to borrow Jiannu's soldiers to eliminate the rogues and save the Ming Dynasty, which was already in danger at that time.
finally opened the door to welcome Li Chuang, but it was a helpless move with no way out.
Although in the end, he was still cut by Li Chuang.
Luo Chen said in a low voice: "Even if it is not for the court and Your Majesty, we must think about ourselves, as long as the Ming Dynasty does not fall for a day, the father-in-law can be prosperous and rich." ”
After being silent for a while, Cao Huachun seemed to really recognize Luo Chen, and he said: "You are right, the bandits in these places in Beizhili and Shandong are indeed a huge hidden danger and must be eliminated.
Don't worry about this matter, our family will find an insignificant person to fold, and then our family will quietly make a statement to the emperor, let's focus on the country's social welfare! ”
Luo Chen said: "Father-in-law is wise! ”
Cao Huachun said again: "But this matter is just like what our family just said, if Your Majesty is really determined to get rid of these bandits, who will go?"
The real elite of the imperial court has to deal with the rogues and the outside Jiannu.
And no one knows what the virtues of the three battalions are now, even if the opponent is a group of rabble, I am afraid that if it is not to kill 10,000 enemies and lose 8,000 themselves, I am afraid that these bandits have not been killed, and the three battalions will be abolished by themselves. ”
Luo Chen said in a low voice: "It's just right to be abolished, I don't want them to win at all, otherwise where will my factory guard have a chance to emerge and restore glory!" ”
That's what he's really for.
That gang of bandits is a knife, which can help Jinyiwei cut off the shackles, kill the avenue, and then dedicate himself to make Jinyiwei stronger.
Cao Huachun was startled and said coldly: "Do you know what you are talking about!" ”
Luo Chen looked at Cao Huachun: "Doesn't my father-in-law want the factory guard to grow stronger, such as reaching the monstrous power of Wei Zhongxian's rampant cavalry!" ”
Hearing this, Cao Huachun's heart was tumbling, and his eyes couldn't help but reveal a trace of longing. Although Wei Zhongxian was infamous after his death, as a eunuch, who did not aspire to achieve the kind of monstrous power above ten thousand people under one person.
Although he Cao Huachun is one of the most powerful in the palace, compared with Wei Zhongxian, he is simply a firefly and Haoyue, which cannot be compared.
He stared at Luo Chen and said, "Then let me ask you, if the three major battalions are defeated, will your Beizhen Fusi have the ability to clean up this mess?" ”
Luo Chen said with a smile: "As long as Your Majesty and the civil officials no longer suppress it, so that the Beizhen Fusi is not bound, it will only take a year, and I promise to kill all those bandits!" ”
……
Walked out of the East Factory, got on the horse, and was on the way back to Fusi in North Town.
Luo Chen said to Meng Fan behind him: "After returning to the North Division, let them copy a copy of all the information about the bandits in Beizhili and Shandong and send it to Dongchang." ”
Meng Fan replied: "Humble and orderly!" ”
The reason why Luo Chen bothered to do these things was not just for his side quest. Another reason is the discovery of the trigger task, which proves that it is indeed related to his identity as a brocade guard.
Anyone who stands on the opposite side of his identity or problem will be rewarded with experience points once it is solved.
For example, after he took office as the envoy of the Beisi Town, as long as it was within the Beisi Yamen, no matter which subordinate cracked the case, the credit would be counted on him as a chief, and then converted into experience point rewards.
The amount of the reward depends entirely on the importance of solving the case.
Even if Luo Chen hasn't done anything these days, he has been rewarded with one or two experience points, or even a dozen experience points, every day.
In the world of Corpse Brothers, it has been proven that the rewards that can be obtained from these triggering quests are stacked and accumulated to the end, which is far greater than the main quest benefits.
According to this model, as long as Beizhen Fuji is strong enough to urge his subordinates to work hard, and the more cases he solves, the more cases he solves, then with a steady stream of accumulation, when he finally leaves this world, the reward may be very amazing.
