Chapter VII: National Disaster (1)
Chapter 7: National Disaster (1)
Liu Chengyou is bad, but not stupid. This is the unanimous view of Shi Hongzhao and Guo Wei. Therefore, under the premise of "not doing anything to abolish the establishment", the best choice for the two is to be one inside and one outside, and they will help each other. used the strength in their respective hands to deter Liu Chengyou, so that the latter did not dare to easily renew his evil intentions.
It was just that Liu Chengyou also hoped to divide and rule the two "power traitors" who held heavy troops, but the next morning, the two sides had a rare tacit understanding, and almost without any words, they "graciously approved" the issue proposed by Shi Hongzhao, so that Guo Wei, the privy deputy envoy, would concurrently serve as the envoy of the Tianxiong Army, and go out of the town of Yedu to guard against the Khitan issue.
After the court was dispersed, the holy decree and the military talisman were sent to Guo Wei's home by Shi Hongzhao himself. Although Guo Wei's injuries had not yet healed, he didn't want to make any further delays, so he immediately took Chai Rong to the camp outside the city to reorganize the soldiers and horses and prepare food and grass supplies. The two of them were busy for two days without touching their feet, and early in the morning of the third day, they set off for the camp.
Shi Hongzhao, Yang Wei, and Wang Zhang were jointly sent ten miles away. Knowing that once he is gone, Guo Wei may not return to Bianliang easily, and the hearts of the brothers are full of reluctance. The practice of wine drank bowl after bowl, but no one was willing to be the first to mention the word "farewell".
In the end, Guo Wei hardened his heart. took a sip of the wine cup in front of him, then pretended to wipe his mouth roughly, and said loudly: "I can't drink anymore, if I drink again, I won't be able to reach Chen Qiaoyi tonight." Three brothers, you must be more careful with yourself from now on. Your Majesty has acted since childhood, and he cannot be judged by common sense. ”
"Just rely on those few wrecks under his hands? In addition to doing some indiscriminate deeds, what tricks can be tossed?" Shi Hongzhao also dried up the residual wine in one gulp, and responded with disdain on his face, "Okay, you can go with confidence, Bianliang will leave it to me." If he doesn't change his bastard temperament for a day, Lao Tzu won't give him back the power for a day. Big deal, when he has his own son......"
"Hua Yuan, don't talk nonsense!" Yang Wei didn't feel good when he heard it, and immediately interrupted. "Your Majesty is young and vigorous, and it is inevitable that you will be deceived by traitors. But as a trusted minister, I will do my best to assist him, so that he can be a virtuous minister, and he is far from a villain. Believe that it will ...... in time"
Before he could finish his words, he was loudly interrupted by Wang Zhang. "Don't wait, in time, hehe, in the future, a few old brothers should worry more! Wang doesn't want to care anymore. Wang has already put on a table to His Majesty, and the bones of the beggars have returned to their hometown! We are ministers, and Your Majesty is the king. Jun can be assisted, and the minister should do his best. There is another master on the side of the king, so why should the minister stay in the way?"
"Wang Nanle!" I didn't expect Wang Zhang to dismantle his platform so simply, Yang Wei's face suddenly turned dark, turned around, and shouted the other party's nickname to remind, "The emperor's great kindness to me......"
"Retreating bravely is also a way to repay your kindness!" Wang Zhang rolled his eyelids and responded lazily. Immediately, he quickly turned his head to Guo Wei and lowered his voice to remind, "After arriving in Yedu, the resettlement will be stopped, and the family members will be taken over as soon as possible." Although Bianliang is prosperous, the price is expensive, and it is really not an easy place to live!"
"That's natural!" Guo Wei originally had a similar plan, but due to the rules of the imperial court, he couldn't implement it immediately. After listening to Wang Zhang's reminder, he smiled and waved to everyone. "The dog is stubborn, and he also asks a few brothers to take care of him. ”
"Wrap it up on the old man!" Shi Hongzhao pointed to his chest without hesitation, and promised loudly, "Don't worry, the door will definitely show you a good look." When you are free, you will send someone back to pick you up. If Ling Lang and the rest of his family have one less hair, you can ask the old man!"
"Ling Lang is smart and studious, with a good character, and he is definitely not a person who causes trouble for his parents!" Prime Minister Yang Wei smiled and arched his hand, looking at him left and right.
The friendship with Guo Wei is friendship, but the rules of the court cannot be changed by people. Guo Wei went out of the town of Yedu as the envoy of the Tianxiong Army, but he did not hand over the post of deputy privy envoy, which had already opened a precedent for both central and local positions. In the future, with the Privy Envoy in his hand, he could mobilize the entire north of the Yellow River with soldiers, horses, money and grain without going through the imperial court. If he is asked to take all his family members away, Bianliang's side will lose any control over him. Once one day his ambitions swelled......
"Hey!" Wang Zhang suddenly let out a cold snort, not aimed at Guo Wei, but at Prime Minister Yang Wei.
The latter immediately blushed with shame, arched his hand, and defended in a hurry: "Wen Zhong, it's not Yang who has a lot of trouble. Since Yang is in the phase......"
"It should be so, Brother Yang doesn't need to say much, the younger brother understands your distress in his heart!" Guo Wei smiled, turned sideways, and returned the favor with the courtesy of his peers.
In the pavilion, the atmosphere that had been cherished before, was instantly mixed with a few traces of excess flavor. There is no reason for the brothers to continue to say goodbye. They saluted each other again, then waved away.
Tens of thousands of troops traveled with grain and grass, and of course it was impossible to go too fast. On the first day, when I arrived at Chenqiaoyi, I camped and rested. The next day it took a whole day to cross the Yellow River, and then set up camp on the north bank. On the third and fourth days, I traveled north at a speed of less than forty miles every day, and I walked for more than half a month before I finally came to Yedu.
The messenger who set out from Bianjing on the same day traveled much faster than the army. Constantly changing mounts along the post station, it only took four days to send the order of Zhongshu Province to summon Zheng Ziming to go back to report on his work, and sent it to Cangzhou.
"According to the practice of the imperial court, local officials, go back to Bianliang once in a few years?" Zheng Ziming was discussing with Pan Mei and others, and after receiving the order, he was a little surprised. He slowly stood up with his hand on the hilt of the knife, and asked with a frown.
Wang Guang, the little official who came to deliver the order, was suddenly frightened, quickly bowed down, and responded loudly, "No, it's not a definite number." According to the reason, it stands to reason that it is only after the expiration of the term of office that he will return to Bianliang to wait for the arrangement. However, there are times when the Ministry of Books feels the need for it, and it is okay to make a decision on an ad hoc basis. ”
"When is it sometimes?" Zheng Ziming smiled and continued to ask in a low voice.
has been rolling in the shadow of swords and swords for several years, and he is no longer the harmless little fat he was at the beginning. frowned slightly, and a murderous aura rolled out between his eyes.
Wang Guang, a small official in Zhongshu Province, was forced to retreat again and again by the murderous aura of the pavement. Large cold sweat rolled down the sideburns of his forehead. "Great, after the catastrophe. Or, after the pandemic. Or, perhaps, there is an important matter pending in the imperial court, and it is necessary to consult the local opinion. ”
"Is there a catastrophe or epidemic in Cangzhou, or is there a major event in the court that has not been resolved?" Zheng Ziming let go of his hand and raised his leg to bypass the table.
"No, no!" The little official Wang Guang continued to retreat quickly, and accidentally, he tripped under his feet and fell on his back to the sky, "Lord Zheng, don't ask." The little one is an errand runner, and nothing has anything to do with the villain! You, if you want to go back, you take this order. If you don't want to go back, you can do whatever you want! Small, small just send the order, else, other really can't control, really can't control!"
