Chapter 338: Digging a Pit
The contradiction between Dongxiang Hou and Chongguo Gong is so great that it can be said that it is endless.
But anything that Chongguo Gong takes the lead in doing is by no means a good thing, and there are obvious pitfalls.
Of course, Dongxiang Hou had to refuse.
It's just that when the Manchu Dynasty protects anyone, even the emperor can't do anything.
Listening is clear, and partiality is dark.
As an emperor, you should listen to the opinions of the ministers, and when the courtiers say a word, the emperor does not listen, that is, an arbitrary and lonely king.
Dongxiang Hou stood there and listened, quietly watching the Duke of Chongguo put pressure on the emperor.
The more persecution, the more it can provoke the emperor's anger, and it will benefit him without harming him.
King Nan'an stood up and said, "It's better for the minister to lead the troops to suppress the bandits, right?" ”
The emperor planned to go down the bamboo pole of King Nan'an, but Chongguo Gong carried the pole away.
"Your Majesty, the minister still thinks that this errand belongs to the Marquis of Dongxiang."
"Dongxiang Hou wants to be a general, this is a good opportunity for him to experience, and also let those new rabble see the gap between them and Dongxiang Hou."
"Although they are all bandits, but the Marquis of Dongxiang killed them like crushing ants, and after the Marquis of Dongxiang recruited An, he has become a loyal courtier of our Great Qi Dynasty, and he is the knife in the emperor's hand to protect the safety of the people, let those bandits see, no matter how powerful they are, the final result will inevitably be to submit to the court and be loyal to the emperor."
The reasons are strong.
So strong that King Nan'an didn't know how to refute it.
He looked sideways at Dongxianghou, and saw Dongxianghou with an expression of "I have been convinced".
King Nan'an, "......." ”
"Please also ask the emperor to send the Marquis of Dongxiang to suppress the bandits," Chongguo Gong took the lead.
Half of the ministers chimed in.
The emperor's brows were twisted.
He looked at Dongxiang Hou.
The Marquis of Dongxiang looked at him and said, "Your Majesty, since the Duke of Chongguo takes the minister so seriously, the minister took this errand." ”
"But the ministers have no soldiers available, I don't know how many soldiers and horses the court plans to send to me to suppress the bandits?" Dongxiang Hou asked.
The emperor asked Chongguo Gong, "How many soldiers and horses does Chongguo Gong think is appropriate?" ”
"A rabble, 800 soldiers are enough," Chongguo is fair.
Dongxiang Hou glanced at Chongguo Gong, "I remember that the imperial court used a rabble to describe my brothers in Qingyun Mountain, for so many years, I also robbed some of the court's grain, grass and silver, but I didn't have to kill a soldier, they were all non-fatal skin injuries, if I really let go of the fight, the people sent would still be able to come back alive?" ”
"With such a light enemy, it's no wonder that the sewing battle will be lost."
Chongguogong's face turned green.
However, it was useless for him to get angry again.
It is a fact that the Flying Tiger Village cannot be destroyed.
This mountain bandit, who couldn't be destroyed no matter how he exterminated, turned into his worst enemy.
Dongxiang Hou looked at the emperor and said, "Instead of his ministers taking 800 soldiers to Yuzhou to suppress bandits, it is better for the emperor to give a decree to the prince of Zhenguo, and when he returned to the court, he took a detour to suppress the mountain bandits." ”
Chongguo Gong said coldly, "Zhen Guogong has made great contributions to the imperial court, and this time he has the important task of escorting the King of the Northern Desert when he returns to Beijing, you let him take a detour to suppress the bandits?!" ”
"It is urgent to exterminate the mountain bandits, there are so many ministers in the court, and they are still waiting for the Zhenguo Mansion to take a detour, how do you let the people of Yuzhou view the court and the emperor?!"
"Could it be that there is no one in the imperial court except for the Duke of Zhenguo?!"
Chongguo Gong was loud.
No one spoke in the council hall for a long time.
Until Dongxiang Hou spoke, "Chongguo is reasonable. ”
Your Majesty, "......." ”
Ministers," ....... ”
Dongxiang Hou actually agreed with what Chongguo Gong said?!
Did their ears hear the difference?
Looking at the surprised eyes cast by those ministers, Dongxiang Hou said, "Although I don't like Chongguo Gong and each other, what he said is right, I agree." ”
"Since all the officials agree with me to suppress bandits, which is conducive to the prestige of the imperial court, I, Dongxiang Hou, naturally take the lead, but I have one condition," Dongxiang Hou said.
"Do you dare to do things for the imperial court?!" Chongguo Gong said coldly.
Dongxiang Hou looked at Chongguo Gong and said, "How many times has the imperial court sent troops to Qingyun Mountain to suppress bandits, Chongguo Gong should know better than me, which time is not a rout?" ”
"Since I am asked to take 800 soldiers to Yuzhou to suppress bandits, I have the right to choose what kind of soldiers to take, if there is a general in the court who does not choose, I can give him this task."
He has no objection to suppressing bandits, but he has to choose the soldiers under his command.
Chongguo Gong did not agree.
But the emperor agreed.
"I will allow you to select 800 soldiers from various military camps to go to Yuzhou to suppress bandits," the emperor said.
"Your Majesty!" Chongguo Gong shouted.
"You don't know how Dongxiang Hou plans to select eight hundred soldiers, in case there is a contest to choose, not to mention the delay in time, it will also cause dissatisfaction among the generals, this precedent cannot be opened."
Dongxiang Hou hooked his lips and said, "Don't worry, I will only pick the soldiers who match my eyes." ”
"This matter is decided," the emperor made the final decision.
"I give Dongxiang Hou a day to go to the barracks to pick up 800 soldiers, and set off for Yuzhou to suppress bandits on the same day."
"Commandment."
Chongguo Gong's face turned faintly blue.
What made him even more angry was still behind, the right attendant of the household department was killed, but General Ning Yuan confessed that he was instructed by him to kill the prefect of Wangzhou to extinguish the mouth, and the evidence of the crime was conclusive, and the Marquis of Dongxiang asked the emperor to order the right attendant of the household department and the general Ning Yuan's mansion.
The Duke of Chongguo favored the right servant of the household department, but the emperor agreed to the proposal of the Marquis of Dongxiang and handed over the task of raiding the right servant of the household department to the Marquis of Dongxiang.
Dongxiang Hou copied two mansions in a row, and then returned to Dongxiang Hou's Mansion.
He entered the door with his front foot, and with his back foot, Young Master Su ran forward and said, "Daddy, are you really going to Yuzhou to suppress bandits?" ”
Young Master Su's eyes were full of excitement.
God is really good to him.
He was worried that he couldn't find a chance to carry out the sneaking plan, and his father was about to leave Beijing.
Daddy is not here, and others are much easier to settle.
Dongxiang Hou looked at him and said, "You want to go with me to suppress bandits?" ”
Young Master Su, "......." ”
"No, I'm just reluctant to give up my father," Young Master Su said.
Dongxiang Hou has a black line on his face.
I've never seen someone who can talk nonsense with his eyes open.
I'm so excited that I just didn't pack up for him and send him out, is this reluctant?
Since childhood, they have been cultivated to be self-reliant and not dependent on others, but the result is too good to cultivate, and in turn, it pierces the heart.
Young Master Su felt that this topic was not good, so he quickly changed it and said, "Daddy, you really want to suppress bandits, that's our kind." ”
"It's the same root, why is it too anxious."
Dongxiang Hou, "......." ”
"Your father, I am Dongxiang Hou now," Dongxiang Hou knocked on the door of Young Master Su's brain.
"But you can't forget your roots."
“……。”
Dongxiang Hou was speechless.
Tang came over, he wanted to laugh but couldn't laugh, "Your father was sent to Yuzhou to suppress bandits for others." ”
Young Master Su was a little confused.
"Daddy is still going?" Young Master Su asked.
"If you don't enter the tiger's den, you can get a tiger?" Dongxiang Hou said with a smile.
"It's not terrible for others to dig holes for you, the important thing is that you can tell, dodge, and tempt others to fall into the pits they dig themselves," Dongxiang Hou took the opportunity to educate his son.
"Let's go, Dad will take you to the barracks."
Young Master Su, "......." ”
His instincts told him.
Going to the barracks is a pit.
