Chapter 153: The First World War
Xiao Rui returned to Fengyuan and saw Qin Mingyue go back to his residence to rest, and when he was not with those Taoist priests, he told Qin Mingyue about Jiang Rui.
Qin Mingyue thought for a while and said, "I don't seem to have this impression of Jiang Rui in my previous life. It looks like another pearl like Wang Renmei! It seems that in my previous life, the national teacher was not qualified, and such a talent can be let go again and again. Instead, let the court reprimand people like He Xiang, really, hey, I failed the master, the emperor's trust in me. ”
Xiao Rui knew that the emperor Qin Mingyue was referring to his father, Emperor Changping. Xiao Rui said gently: "The past has passed, don't we have a chance to make up for it now?" ”
Qin Mingyue nodded and said, "Yes." By the way, Xiao Rui, this Jiang Rui is so talented, how do you know? ”
Xiao Rui smiled and said: "Although I didn't care about government affairs in my previous life, you forgot that my brother Yun Feiyang and I are friends." I have traveled all over the world, and among them, this province has visited the most. Here in Cloud City, you will linger for a long time. Even, in the last period of time, I achieved the Martial Sect, that is, I went to Cloud City in Ba Province again and achieved it in the ancestral tomb of the Yun family. In this life, I heard you say that it is the land of the true spirit of the White Tiger, and the White Tiger is fierce, which is the best for those who practice martial arts. So, I try to stay there a little longer. It just so happened that you touched the formation, which made me comprehend the true meaning of the White Tiger, so as to achieve the Martial Sect again. ”
"Well, that's off topic. In my previous life, because I was in Cloud City and my righteous brother Pan Heng, I knew a little more about the affairs of Cloud City. Jiang Rui has always been a guard in Cloud City. At the beginning, Jiang Rui, like in this life, was demoted here because of the prince. At that time, everyone thought that he had no future. However, who would have thought that later, the prince rebelled and fell. Jiang Rui's opportunity has come. ”
In the capital, his friends beckoned him back to the court. However, as soon as he heard that after you inherited the position of national teacher, you recommended your second brother to be the crown prince, he was angry, so he didn't go back to the capital, and continued to think about it, calling him the relationship of the capital, and helping him stay in Cloud City in Ba Province all the time. Later, it turned out that he was right. He offended the prince because of the relationship between the Su family. The prince is on the platform, and the Su family is also unlucky. However, later, when the second brother became the emperor, he actually lifted Su Liuli out again. ”
"Even very spoiled, the Su family is even more arrogant now. used to be only the princess's maiden family, but when the second brother was in power, it became even more powerful, and became the maiden family of the favorite concubine, and even the queen's maiden family was compared to the queen at that time. Can the Su family let Jiang Rui go? If Jiang Rui was in the capital at that time, it is estimated that the soul of the Su family would be gone. Fortunately, although the Su family hates Jiang Rui, Jiang Rui has always been in the remote province of Ba. The Su family's hand can't reach here yet. can only make a fuss about the evaluation of the ministry every year, and give him a middle or even a low evaluation every time. Your star picking building, naturally, only shows you the high-level officials. Therefore, you left out characters like Jiang Rui. ”
"Later, the power of the Su family became more and more powerful, and my second brother and Su Liuli became more and more disagreeable, and in the end, Jiang Rui felt that it was not a way to do it in Ba Province, so he simply hung up his crown and left. I went back to my hometown to study for my children. ”
"When I was in Cloud City, I heard that my righteous brother admired this Jiang Rui many times, and I also heard about some of his political ability. I have to say that in his previous life, he managed Cloud City very well, without your Taoism, without your miracles, he actually educated the people, no longer believed in Wumen, and became very loyal to the Great Zhou, and there were fewer contradictions between the hundred tribes and the Han people, and the people of Cloud City lived and worked in peace and contentment, even to the point of not closing their doors at night. Therefore, I am very optimistic about Jiang Rui. Deliberately to recruit him. Unexpectedly, he was even smarter than I thought. not only has the ability to govern a place well, but also has the ability to plan for the temple. It really blew my mind. ”
"It seems that in his previous life, he was always not optimistic about his second brother, so he deliberately hid it, Mingyue, where can you know him?"
Qin Mingyue nodded and said, "It should be like this." Speaking of which, this Jiang Rui is indeed powerful. In my previous life, my master and I were deceived by King Jin, but he could see the details of King Jin, which was really not easy. Moreover, in troubled times, he knows how to protect himself, which is remarkable. Those who can hide clumsily are really smart people. ”
"Since such people have submitted to us, then we must use them well. Originally, I thought that if this Jiang Rui was a capable person, he would leave him in Cloud City, just like Wang Meiren, and watch the Taoism of Ba Province go on for me. However, now, it seems that this Jiang Rui's talent is even more powerful than Wang Meiren. It's a pity to continue to put it in Cloud City. Shall we get him back to the capital now? ”
Xiao Rui nodded and said, "This is the time when we are short of such strategists. Jiang Rui should be quickly brought back. It's just that I don't have any position, just a prince. This time, the matter of the Qin mission is still stained with your light, and after going back to the mission, there will be nothing to do. How can Jiang Rui be placed? Jiang Rui is not an ordinary strategist, he is a serious official of the imperial court. ”
"In the capital, if you don't arrange a position for him, how can you transfer him from Ba Province?"
Qin Mingyue smiled and said, "You are really a fan of the authorities. Did you forget? When I return to the capital, there should be a ceremony for the succession of the national teacher. When the time comes, I will be a national teacher, and I can't arrange a Jiang Rui? ”
Xiao Rui couldn't help but stroke his palms and laugh: "I'm really confused, how did I forget this stubble." That's great, I'll leave this matter to you. ”
"By the way, Mingyue, the matter of exterminating the Wumen in Ba Province has been carried out here, and the Shui family must be eradicated. In this matter, the Gu family, the Bai family, the Yun family, and Li Tingshi were all involved. Originally, the Thunder War could be carried out now, but you are still in Ba Province, and my father does not agree to do it now, so after the affairs on our side are done, we are ready to return to the capital. As soon as you return to the capital, there is probably going to be a war here. Not only against the Shui family, it is estimated that there will be a war with the big merchants. So, I'm not at ease. The situation in the capital has been a bit tense lately. I don't want to get involved. So, I want to go back to Ba and personally oversee the war. ”
Qin Mingyue couldn't help but groan.
