He saw that Qin Chonghai had swept away his gloom, but instead said solemnly: "Although what Wang Yangming said is reasonable, if our Northwest Army does nothing and waits for the Holy Sacred Heart to make a decision, it will also seem that we are too weak." Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info I want to write a letter to the Holy One. ”
After that, he ordered Wang Yangming to study ink, and he wrote a long letter, sealed it with fire paint, and ordered the herald in the army to send the letter to the Chang'an Palace as soon as possible at all costs.
Wang Yangming was waiting on the side, read all the content written by Boyan, and secretly praised Boyan in his heart Although he is a military general, he is no worse than a senior civil official like Zhang Qian. Qin Chonghai said that Boyan was an old fox, which was really not bad at all.
It turned out that Boyan first asked the emperor for peace in the letter, and respectfully asked if the Holy Communion was well. Then he truthfully reported the battle situation of the Northwest Army, and said that the three armies worked together, linked the three kingdoms, and marched smoothly. Then the pen turned around, and began to cry about how hard the Northwest Army was fighting, how difficult it was for the soldiers, who were fighting with loyalty to the saints, but suddenly learned that the military department had stopped supplying grain and grass, although he knew that the military department could not think of making this decision, but when the news spread, the morale of the officers and men of the three armies was still greatly damaged......
It took ten days to reach Chang'an, and after another ten days, Boyan received a reply from the emperor, and he called Qin Chonghai and Wang Yangming to his account, and said with faith:
"Boyan loves the general, the letter has been informed. Your military has done great things, I know it. The battle was difficult, and I knew it. I relied on the Northwest Army as the pillar stone, and I was determined to help with the strength of the country, but I didn't expect these minions of the military department to deduct my favorite army's food and salary. Now that I know about this, I will not spare him Lao Du. I dare to assert that within half a month, your military rations will definitely arrive as scheduled, only a little more. In addition, I will send a competent official to Khotan ****, this person is your old acquaintance, and the two of you can talk about it well. In addition, I have a great gift for you, and you will know when you see it. After all is said and done, you have to do a good job. I am such a man, such a temperament, if you and other ministers do not live up to me, I will no longer live up to you. Chin this. ”
Wang Yangming listened to it funny, and said in his heart, how can this emperor's old man write a letter so strange and half-literate. But he also heard San Yisheng mention that Emperor Hongwu was born recklessly and was originally illiterate, but after he became a treasure, he treated scholars very favorably, and he has been working hard to learn culture. But after all, I didn't learn much well, so I formed this unique style of writing letters. Then his heart tightened, although the emperor called Boyan a favorite general and seemed to have a lot of trust in Boyan, but he called the military department a slave, and called the military department Shangshu Du Shaoqing Lao Du. The intimacy of this is still unconsciously revealed.
The old Dolby Loves will be more intimate. And the slave, only the self-conscious people, will be called a slave by the emperor.
Qin Chonghai saw that the development of the matter was not far from the speculation of Boyan and Wang Yangming, and admired it in his heart. But he was curious: "The old acquaintance that the emperor said, I don't know who it is? It's mysterious, and my old Qin can't see this kind of mystery the most. ”
Boyan smiled slightly, but asked Wang Yangming: "Come and guess?"
Wang Yangming knew that Boyan intended to test himself, and replied truthfully: "The **** person, I have guessed who it is, but I really can't guess the big gift." ”
Boyan nodded and said, "I can guess, as I expected, your old acquaintance is also coming." ”
Wang Yangming suddenly realized that the emperor of the heart was so generous, and it seemed that he was determined to win the fifteen countries of the Western Regions. He remembered this gift and smiled at Boyan.
Qin Chonghai saw that the two of them were fighting, but he looked like a second monk, and said angrily: "How can you two learn to play tricks, tell me quickly!"
Boyan ignored him and said, "You will naturally know when the time comes." It's not interesting to say it now. ”
Wang Yangming said goodbye and left, Boyan sat down to be busy with his own affairs, and Qin Chonghai was the only one scratching his ears and cheeks in place, puzzled.
On the fifteenth day, the grain and grass arrived on time, and the quantity was more than doubled. Qin Chonghai was very happy and ordered the whole army to have more meals to boost morale.
The person who escorted the grain and grass was a person that Qin Chonghai never expected.
He stood stunned in place, watching the man walk towards him with a smile and a feast, until the man came close and patted him on the shoulder, then he came to his senses and said with great joy: "Marquis Zhang, why are you here!"
Zhang Qian, the newly promoted second-class loyal prince of Great Xia, the hero of the hollowing out of the Western Regions, came to the Northwest Army.
Zhang Qian was originally a third-class Bowang Marquis, Qin Chonghai was used to it, he couldn't change his mouth for a while, and he didn't wake up until he finished speaking, and now he should call Zhang Qian a duke, he hurriedly apologized and changed his words, you must know that in the officialdom, the most taboo is to call the wrong person's name and position. Although Qin Chonghai was rude, he didn't dare to offend this first-class celebrity in front of the emperor.
Zhang Qian waved his hand and said with a smile: "Mr. Qin, I don't have to be so polite. We're all our own people. ”
When Boyan heard the news of Zhang Qian's arrival, he had already greeted him, and he had a great friendship with Zhang Qian, so he naturally had to talk about it this time. After Zhang Qian's greetings, he asked Boyan: "Where is General Wang Yangming?"
Boyan sent someone to call, Wang Yangming hurriedly came to meet him, followed by Biluo, Su Mu and other heroes who had accompanied Zhang Qian to chisel the Western Regions. Wang Yangming stepped forward to salute, Zhang Qian supported him, and said: "Don't be three days, you should be impressed." General Wang is so majestic now, I have heard of it in Beijing, and the countries of the Western Regions are now terrified when they hear your name, there is a white-robed general in the Northwest Army of the capital, and he will win all battles!"
Wang Yangming hurriedly humbled and said: "I have already learned that Zhongguo Gong is about to come to ****, but I didn't expect to come so quickly!
When Qin Chonghai heard him say this, he suddenly realized: "It turns out that the old acquaintance of the **** mentioned by the emperor is Zhang Gong?
Bo Yan said with a smile: "I can get acquainted with the elder I call and is suitable for the heavyweight who comes to the northwest ****, who else is there besides Zhang Gong? ”
Qin Chonghai's old face was red when he said it, and everyone laughed, he was not embarrassed. Zhang Qian grabbed Bi Luo and said warmly: "Bi Lezheng, I haven't seen you for a long time, your complexion has improved a lot, it seems that General Wang treats you well." ”
When the Western Regions were hollowed out before, Biluo, as the grand interpreter of the mission, followed the mission from birth to death, and really made a lot of contributions. Zhang Qian admired Wang Yangming's little maid very much, and later Biluo was named Lezheng by Emperor Chrysostom Yuyan, and he also called Biluo Bilezheng.
Biluo hurriedly greeted Zhang Qian, but Zhang Qian waved behind him, and said, "Xiao Qi, come and meet all the old acquaintances." ”
A plump woman walked out from behind him, with a snow-white complexion and a noble body, just like a noble lady, but her dark blue eyes revealed a heroic posture, but seeing her Yingying, she said in a refreshing voice: "Ladies and gentlemen, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”
This woman is naturally the Hu Nu Alice that Zhang Qian brought back from Yuli Kingdom.
Biluo and Alice are also familiar with each other, and seeing that her figure has changed a lot, she said strangely: "The Seventh Lady is a lot richer!"
Before the words fell, a loud cry came from behind Alice, it turned out to be a few months old baby, held in the arms of Alice's maid, and for some reason suddenly cried, presumably hungry. Alice hurriedly picked up the baby and gently comforted her in her arms.
Biluo covered her surprise with surprise: "But the little boy?"
Alice nodded and smiled, but Zhang Qian's face was full of pride, and said loudly: "Alice gave birth to a son three months ago, named Sanfeng." ”
Everyone said hello, seeing that Zhang Qian was old and had a son, he loved this child very much, and of course they all picked up good words. Among them, Qin Chonghai's praise was the most peculiar, and he said uncontrollably: "His grandmother is a bear, this little doll cries like thunder, and when she grows up, she will definitely be a general with millions of soldiers!"
Everyone laughed, only Wang Yangming was strange and unspeakable in his heart, and said in his heart that Zhang Qian had an eldest son named Zhang Wuji, and a second son named Zhang Cuishan, and now he gave birth to a third son, who is actually called Zhang Sanfeng. I won't talk about how coincidental this is, the key is that this generation is completely reversed......
He couldn't help but be curious, and asked tentatively, "Why did you choose the name Sanfeng?"
Zhang Qian replied with a smile: "He is doing three things at home, I want to give him a good omen's name, it is better to use this rich word, the country and the people are safe, and the five grains are abundant, isn't it beautiful!"
Everyone praised again, this time it was an exaggeration of what Qian's chest had learned, and it was really worthy of the word Bowang.
Zhang Qian was very happy, so he went to the camp tent with everyone to attend the banquet, and the banquet was staggered, and everyone talked about the war, and they talked endlessly. Zhang Qian remembered something and said to Boyan: "Ten days ago, the emperor summoned Du Shaoqing into the palace and scolded him fiercely. After Lao Du left the palace, he heard that he returned to the military department with a cold old face, and scolded the military department up and down, and later allocated double the grain and grass to the front line. The emperor ordered me to escort the grain and grass to ****. ”
Boyan knew that Du Shaoqing must have lost his wife and broken his troops this time, but he didn't react when he heard the words, but Qin Chonghai was very happy, and scolded with a smile: "Du Shaoqing, this old thing, has lived like an old loach all his life and doesn't keep his hands, this time he actually fainted and brushed the tiger whiskers of our Northwest Army, it seems that he is old and confused." ”
Du Shaoqing is the boss of the military department and the important minister of the country, how dare the rest of the people laugh at him as unscrupulously as Qin Chonghai. Zhang Qian just smiled and didn't echo, and then said: "The emperor also revealed to me privately that there is a big gift to give to the Northwest Army, and I estimate that it should arrive in a few days." ”
