It was early in the morning, the sky was just dawning, and the back garden of the Li Mansion was the secretary of the military department. The full-text and ad-free novels are all biquge.info on Aishang Novel Network
Li Chengqian, the secretary of the military department, danced with a sword in his hand very vigorously, rolling up the surrounding fog, and the swishing wind could be heard clearly from afar, don't look at him in his forties, but his body was still very vigorous, and there was no delay between moving and jumping.
After half an hour, Li Chengqian closed his momentum, exhaled a breath of white air in his mouth, but the back of his front and back of his coat was already wet, and his sideburns and eyebrows were also covered with sweat, but his spirit did not weaken at all, and a pair of eagle eyes became more and more scorching.
Seeing that he slowly inserted the sword into the sheath, the little boy who was waiting next to him hurriedly ran over, handed over the hand towel that had been warm, but said in his mouth: "Master, Mr. Peng, they have arrived, waiting by the lake, did the master go into the house to change clothes?" ”
"No, I want to go down with Mr. Peng, and let the kitchen be more careful."
"Yes." The boy bowed and retreated, trotting all the way without a shadow.
Wiping the sweat on his face, Li Chengqian exhaled a long breath comfortably, he was born in the army, and read the book of the sage, it can be said that he is a civil and military all-rounder, that is, he entered the military department, and he has not put down the martial arts he learned in the army, in addition to practicing martial arts every morning, he will take some time out to study the scriptures every evening, and he has not slackened for more than ten years, and his perseverance and perseverance can be imagined, and he has been promoted in the military department year by year, and finally sat in the position of this Shangshu, which can not be said to be half lucky. He was strong, and he was sweating all over his body. But he didn't feel the cold, and strode out of the glade.
In the distance, on the edge of the small frozen lake in the back garden, between the mist, several people in wide robes and big sleeves gathered together. \23hh.cc\/\The sound of talking and laughing came from time to time.
Seeing Li Chengqian coming over, several people hurriedly put away their laughter and stepped forward to give a salute, but a group of miscellaneous servants in the palace were waiting there far away at this time.
This is already the norm in Shangshufu. Li Chengqian is not a lazy person, and now that he has been promoted to the secretary of the military department, he is more diligent in his administration, and it is naturally harder to follow such a person.
"Several gentlemen are exempt, there is no morning court today. I woke up a little late, and I had to wait for you a long time. Li Chengqian looked at a few people and smiled. These people are all the talents he has networked around him over the years, some are proficient in government affairs, some are good at criminal law, some are proficient in the art of war and military formations, and some are beautiful articles, and they are all people with their own splendid belly.
And over the years, although Li Yanchu and others in the Ministry of War have been unable to raise their heads, they have been able to guard every inch of the place, and they have never been crushed, thanks to the help of these people. The only thing that makes him a little regretful is that although he is now a secretary of the military department. But there is still some distance from the opening of the mansion, and the official rank in the mansion is too low. So far, some of them can't help waiting.
"Don't dare, don't dare to ......" a few. The staff are all humble and don't even dare to say anything.
Li Chengqian was not too polite with them, and waved his hand, "Speak in the pavilion." ”
When they arrived at the lakeside pavilion, someone had already prepared warm cushions, and the hot tea and ginger soup were all scalded on the stove. \23hh.cc\
Every morning, they will gather in this pavilion to discuss who to meet first, what official business to handle, and what major and minor matters the military department needs to pay attention to; this is the habit that Li Chengqian brought over from the army, and what these henchmen and staff members have to do is not to do practical things, let alone have real power, but only play the role of a counselor in planning, very much like joining the army in the army.
"There are more and more adults recruiting people, this pavilion is a little smaller, and it is inevitable that someone will stand in the future......"
"No, there are two more chairs this year, but there are more and more things to deal with......
"Qionglou Yuyu, thousands of mansions, wait, my lord is trusted and favored by the emperor, sooner or later there will be such a meteorological place, and then you are afraid that the place is too big......
The casual chatter and laughter of these staff members vaguely came into their ears, but they didn't notice that Li Chengqian's smile froze. After everyone sat down, Li Chengqian slowly drank the ginger soup, and a warmth gradually rose from his abdomen, but he didn't speak, looking at the garden in the back garden with some distraction, this is still the mansion given by the first emperor when he was promoted to the left squire of the military department, it has been almost ten years, right? After many years of restoration, it has become what it is today.
Thinking of these, he felt a little uncomfortable, he worked hard day and night, sorting out military affairs, regardless of the merit and hard work, he thought that he was not comparable to others, that person was only a teenage hairy boy, and he was lucky enough to make some small contributions, and now he occupies the mansion of the kings, not to mention, there is a Zhuangzi in the south of the city, in comparison, his Shangshu Mansion is much older and narrower. \//23hh.cc/\\
Some gritted his teeth unwillingly, the tip of his tongue hurt slightly, and then he came back to his senses, but it was this time that the person made a meritorious contribution, and I don't know how the court will reward him, I hope that the person will die outside, and never return to the capital to have a vicious idea.
This thought flashed away, and he himself was a little surprised, speaking of which he had no grudge against that person, and he had worked together at the beginning, and his subordinate staff had never persuaded him to make a good alliance with that person, and in the future, he would assist Mingjun inside and outside, and the reason was also said a lot.
But he couldn't hear it, and finally moved some hands and feet to come out, this reason is a little complicated, in addition to the fact that this person is young, he is favored by two generations of emperors, and there is some jealousy, but there is also some contempt, but there is also some jealousy in it, in the end, it is that this person has never taken the initiative to show favor to him, the old minister, so that he feels despised, and although he claims to be the confidant of the Holy Land today, but on the night of the palace change, he did not receive the slightest rumor in advance, and all the credit was taken up by that person, The name of the first favorite of the dynasty also fell on that person. Every time he thought of this, he felt very depressed in his heart.
Retracting these rambling reveries, a smile slowly appeared on his face, and then he said: "If there is anything that needs to be dealt with today, gentlemen, tell me." ”
"Your Excellency. The envoys of Hou Shu have arrived in Jingzhao, and it is estimated that they will be escorted into Beijing by the Jingzhao forbidden army in the near future, and His Majesty may summon adults into the palace today to discuss this matter. ”
Li Chengqian nodded, and the envoys of Houshu came all the way. \\/23hh.cc\ It's not easy to arrive, but Daqin is full of troops here, and it is already like an arrow, and it has to be sent, and the envoys are coming in vain, but how to deal with these envoys, it takes some thought to go, and I heard that the Emperor of Houshu is mediocre and weak. Didn't you still think that you could get Daqin to withdraw with one or a few envoys? It is estimated that Su Qin and Zhang Yi are reincarnated, and there is nothing they can do at this time. If this is the case, it will be a blessing for Great Qin.
"My lord, there is a royal history to participate in the military department to levy and send the people, I am afraid that there will be a mistake in the farming, the emperor has ordered the Privy Council to send the music to the military department, I am afraid that I want to listen to the right performance of the lord in court."
Li Chengqian smiled slightly and said: "Don't pay attention to it, now that the war is imminent, everything is based on military affairs. ”
Half an hour passed in the blink of an eye. A few staff members except for the newcomers. The others were very proficient in the affairs of the military department, and they did not talk at length. Pick only the important things, and in half an hour you will clear up all the things of the day.
Li Chengqian nodded with satisfaction. Just about to stand up and call everyone to disperse, I heard a person say with some hesitation: "My lord, yesterday evening, the Yulin Left Guard from Du Shanhu and below gathered General Yingyang, and the Yulin Left Guard commanded Zhao Shifu, and I don't know......
"Oh?" Li Chengqian's eyes flashed, and he instantly became a little intimidating, and his body slowly sat back.
"Is it that General Yingyang Zhao Shi has returned to Beijing?" Another person speculated.
Several henchmen and staff members looked at Li Chengqian's unprecedentedly strict expression, and their faces were a little strange, they naturally understood that this benefactor did not have the slightest affection for that general Yingyang, and sometimes he was called a hairy boy in front of them, but if it really came to pass, most of them were full of curiosity and admiration for the first favorite of the dynasty who was sharp and sharp in his teens, and had a strong head. \\23hh.cc\\\
If this general Yingyang really returned to Beijing safely, this person is really amazing, not to say what happened before, just talking about this Eastern Expedition, I heard that he broke the enemy in front of the battle, such as chopping melons and vegetables, brave and unparalleled, and then led a lone army to break out of the siege on the west bank of Fenshui, into Luliang Mountain, it sounds like a defeat, but you must know that Duan Qibao in the river is also a rare brave general, leading 5,000 elite soldiers, but not a step past Fenshui, it can be seen that the elite of the golden soldiers who besieged this lone army.
Forget about these, but this General Yingyang ordered the deputy general Li Jinhua to lead the army back to Beijing for thousands of miles, but he ran away without a trace, I heard that he went to the territory of the Hu people in the north, where would anyone think that he avoided the enemy and fought timidly? , the rumors and rumors in the court are naturally nonsense in the hearts of these clear-eyed people.
If he comes back safely, he will really deserve the name of the blood tiger, compared to the brave and resolute uncle Han Wei Han who stood up when the army was defeated and retreated, fought thousands of miles of blood, and almost returned alone, right?
But these words could not be said in front of this benefactor, only the two newly reused staff members showed some joy, but when they saw Li Chengqian's face pulled down in an instant, they were a little stunned and puzzled.
"When is this?"
"Yesterday around noon, the adults were in the yashang, and I came back too late last night, so I didn't dare to disturb the adults to rest, so ......
"That's why I said it at this time......" Li Chengqian's voice was a little angry, if that hairy boy came back, after this day and night, it is estimated that everything that should be done or not has been done, does he already know about Zuo Wei's affairs? Don't understand the joints? Have you seen the emperor? These idiots.
Immediately, he also suppressed the anger in his heart, although he looked down on this boy who didn't have any hair, but he was also very jealous of his weight in the heart of the saint today.
"Anything else?"
"Ah, I asked someone to check the city gate guards, yesterday there was indeed a team of people in peculiar costumes into the city, but the leader was Zhao Guang, the right guard of Yulin, the official of Cao Treasury, and there seemed to be Hu people in this line......
"That's it, Zhao Guang is a relative, a relative of the Queen Mother, and Zhao Shipan is also attached to the Queen Mother's side...... It is not surprising that he went to the place where the Hu people went to the north again, and brought back a Bahu people, in this Chang'an City, but how many years have I not seen the Hu people, right? Well, in addition to the Jurchen of the Jin Kingdom...... "Hearing the exact news, Li Chengqian calmed down, no matter how he said that he is now a scholar of the military department, a civil official of the third grade, Zhao Shi is just the commander of the Yulin Left Guard, it is within the jurisdiction of his military department, and when he heard that his subordinates returned to Beijing safely, he did not like to be angry, but he was a little out of shape.
"Okay, that's the end of it, the matter of Zhao Shi's return to Beijing must not be spread outside, so let's disperse."
Everyone resigned one after another, Li Chengqian looked at the frozen lake in a daze, and didn't know what he was thinking, after a while, the chill on his body became heavier and heavier, so he sighed slightly and turned to leave.
At noon, the sun hung lazily in the sky, and the first few soldiers of the military department stood on both sides like nails, although their faces were cold and blue, but none of them moved a little.
The sound of horses' hooves suddenly sounded, several healthy horses galloped to the ground, not far away, the knights on the horses pulled the reins together, the healthy horses neighed, people stood up, and before the front hooves of the war horses landed, several people had turned over and dismounted, and the movements were clean and neat, so that the eyes of several soldiers guarding the door shrank, and the heart said, this is the town army again, right? These days, I am also used to seeing the high-flying and powerful appearance of these town army messengers.
But then I saw the costumes of several people, but they were all stunned, isn't this Yu Linwei's person?
One of them stopped a little on the horse, and when he dismounted, he looked a little muddy, and immediately someone laughed and said, "I said second brother, you have been in Jinglian for too long, right?" When the adults see your fat, maybe you won't be able to get up for half a month......
An angry voice came, "Go, didn't you just go to the east?" The tails are about to go up to the sky, Lao Fei is called calm, look at the few of you one by one as if you are going to be reincarnated monkeys...... I'm practicing martial arts at home, hmph, now with our skills, it's not so easy for adults to beat us......
"Practicing martial arts to get a body of fat, this is fresh, you will brag with my brother and me, you have the ability to blow in front of adults, haven't you seen adults yet? When I see you, when you suffer, my brother will have to make a scene. ”
The two leaders had loud voices, and while arguing, they handed over the reins of their horses to their subordinates at will, and came to the front of the military department in a big way.
