Chapter 312: It's okay to rebel, but what's the emperor's surname?
It was not the first time that Gao Xianda had done this kind of thing, and he quickly reached an agreement with Ma Xiongzhen. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Gao Xianda went to help Ma Xiongzhen subdue Sun Yanling, who intended to rebel. Ma Xiongzhen is willing to contribute half of the remaining funds to help the construction of the Guangdong Naval Army. In addition, he is also willing to provide a certain amount of supply to Guangdong for Guangxi's tax balance every year.
For a long time, Guangdong is rich and Guangxi is poor, and it is the first time that Guangxi is so urgently needed to help itself. It's all about shipbuilding.
Gao Xianda didn't say much, so he discussed specific countermeasures with Ma Xiongzhen.
It's not been a day and a half since Ma Xiongzhen wants to deal with Sun Yanling, but because he has no soldiers in his hands, he doesn't dare to really offend Sun Yanling. I don't know why there is no news of the documents he sent to Jingzhong.
He wanted to set up a banquet to lure Sun Yanling to his mansion, but this Sun Yanling was not a fool, and he always brought a few personal bodyguards with him between actions. These bodyguards are all masters of the ranks. There are only some family members, officials and the like on the side of Maxiong Town, and they are no match for these professional soldiers at all.
Gao Xianda nodded and said, "This matter is easy to say, you are responsible for setting up a banquet and inviting him over." I'll be in charge of his bodyguards. β
Ma Xiongzhen naturally nodded yes, and then went down to make arrangements.
That night, Ma Xiongzhen set up a banquet, invited Sun Yanling to come over for a drink, and wanted to introduce Sun Yanling to Gao Xianda.
When Gao Xianda saw it, this young man Sun Yanling was very good-looking, young and presumptuous, and had a bit of an idol taste. No wonder He Shuo Gekong Sizhen can deign to marry him, the son of a general.
After the death of her father, Kong Youde, the king of Dingnan, this Kong Sizhen was favored by the Empress Dowager of Xiaozhuang, and she was given the position of Heshuo Gege, and she was pampered, treating her like a girl. Kong Sizhen is fully capable of rejecting anyone, and also has the ability to choose her own spouse.
It seems that their marriage is not just a political marriage, but more of Kong Sizhen's own choice.
It seems that this matter may not be easy, after dealing with Sun Yanling, you have to think about how to appease Kong Sizhen. Otherwise, if she goes to Beijing to make trouble, even if she is Kangxi's favorite minister, but if Xiaozhuang spoils Kong Sizhen, I am afraid that she will not be able to go well.
Gao Xianda hurriedly avoided it, but he didn't know, and then called Ma Xiongzhen aside.
Ma Xiongzhen hurriedly asked him, "My lord, what's wrong?" Is there anything wrong? β
Gao Xianda said: "If we drink together, how can we do it after we get drunk?" Moreover, I have another business trip to the west this time, and there is a lot of trouble everywhere, if they hear about it, they will attack me halfway, and there will be a lot of trouble for no reason. β
When Ma Xiongzhen heard this, how could he not know what Gao Xianda meant in his heart? He is also a person who mixes in the officialdom, how can he not understand this point of caution. But he is now a clearly vulnerable group, with a bit of a parasitic connotation. So he even claimed yes and said, "Okay lord, then do as you say." All you have to do is subdue him, and I'll bear all the consequences. β
When Gao Xianda heard this, this Maxiong Town was a little thorough, and he could even say it to his face, he was really an upright official. It is also worthy that after he learned of Wu Sangui and Sun Yanling's objections, he knew that his life was in danger, and he dared to write to the court, instead of colluding with them.
Gao Xianda inevitably glanced at Ma Xiongzhen again.
Gao Xianda said: "Master Ma is serious, after all, we are in a cooperative relationship. My shot must be secretive enough, if Master Ma handles it beautifully, there will be no consequences later. β
Ma Xiongzhen looked at Gao Xianda and nodded heavily.
Although he heard from his son that Gao Xianda and his party were all responsible for great kung fu, he hadn't seen it with his own eyes after all, so it was still hard to believe that Gao Xianda could defeat those guards.
Sun Yanling was accompanied by eight guards, all of whom were big-shouldered and round-waisted, even if they came to the mansion of Maxiong Town, they still kept their knives on their bodies, and they didn't take the governor of Maxiong Town in their eyes at all. This Sun Yanling's antipathy is already very obvious.
However, Ma Xiongzhen had no choice, he could only treat these guards as air, and he only communicated with Sun Yanling.
When Sun Yanling heard that Governor Ma was holding a banquet, he came very face-saving. He also knew that Ma Xiongzhen was a capable person. If Sun Yanling is allowed to govern Guangxi by himself, he may not be able to govern it like this.
So although he has an objection, he also wants to win over Ma Xiongzhen, if there is such a capable person to help, his career will be much easier.
But he was also afraid that Ma Xiongzhen would plot against him in private, so Sun Yanling was also secretly wary of him, and the guards never left him.
The two chatted for a while, and Sun Yanling inevitably mentioned the matter of wooing again. What I didn't expect was that Ma Xiongzhen didn't oppose it as strictly as usual this time, but said that it could be considered.
Sun Yanling was stunned for a moment at that time and said, "What Master Ma said is true?" β
Ma Xiongzhen said: "No matter what, I am a Han after all. It is also my wish to drive out the tartars. I have always refused to agree, I just don't know, if we rebel, will this future emperor be surnamed Wu or Sun? β
This stunned Sun Yanling.
He naturally had the intention of rebelling, but in fact, he never dared to think that he could reach the throne. He was just responding to Wu Sangui's call.
Ma Xiongzhen said: "I am the governor, although Guangxi is a small province, but I am already a feudal official of the second grade. If Wu Sangui wins the world, although we follow the uprising, but he already has his own small court, I am afraid that I may not be able to become a bigger official than now. When the time comes, he will hold me accountable for delay, slowness, and the like, and it will not be easy to take my life. But if this emperor is surnamed Sun......"
This Sun Yanling said: "Sir, what kind of plan is there? β
Ma Xiongzhen smiled but did not speak.
Sun Yanling said: "Oh, sir, please teach me." If I am lucky enough to be able to ascend to the throne, I will definitely make Mr. the prime minister, one person under ten thousand people! β
Ma Xiongzhen said: "I'm just talking casually, General Sun still don't take it seriously." This is not a joke, if the news leaks, no matter which side of the ear it is, you and I will be charged with a thousand cuts. β
As he spoke, Ma Xiongzhen raised his eyes and looked at the guards next to him.
Sun Yanling said: "Sir, don't worry, these are my personal guards, I can trust them." β
Ma Xiongzhen still didn't say.
Sun Yanling pondered for a moment, he was a young man and a military attachΓ©, and his martial arts were reasonable. And this Ma Xiongzhen is a bad old man in his fifties and sixties, and he is also a civil official. It's easy to take him down on your own.
There was only one door in this room, so even if he had any ambush, he didn't have to be afraid.
Sun Yanling was too interested in Ma Xiongzhen's thoughts, so he said to the guards: "You eight, go out first, wait outside the door!" (To be continued.) )
