Chapter 204: Yin and Yang: Miscellaneous Matters along the River (3)
In the third year of Daxuan Taihe, Meng Huanhong, the king of Hanzhong County, gradually expanded, the town border, protected the territory and the people, cultivated diligence and loyalty, and was specially named the king of Qin, and he was rewarded and persuaded.
This is the first official decree issued by Meng Yan after arriving in Yiling, and at the same time, Gu Xifeng, the prince of Beichuan County, was crowned as the prince and young master to reward him for his contribution to protecting the prince, so Gu Xifeng specially rushed from Beichuan to Yiling to thank him.
Meng Yan summoned the local Baiyi Temple and Ye Nan and others to carry out a secret search of Yiling, and Ye Nan was exhausted by the seven-day search, but he didn't want to stop at all, his eyes were full of fire now, and he couldn't wait to review everyone in Yiling City.
Seven days after the emperor arrived in Yiling, three times the people made trouble, the ability of the Ming Jian Division has made His Majesty doubt, Beichuan Gong came to Yiling on the face of thanksgiving, but in fact, His Majesty wanted to clean Yiling, and the King of Qin was immediately driven back to Hanzhong by His Majesty after being crowned, just to seduce the careerists of Yiling.
"Rong Hou, the Duke of Beichuan has already entered the city, and His Majesty and Niangniang will leave him for a family banquet in the palace." Ye Nan's attendant reminded in a low voice.
Ye Nan looked at the attendant with a gloomy face and said: "Put away your thoughts, Your Majesty is dissatisfied with us, because we really didn't do our own thing, Beichuan Gong is the uncle of the country, and he is also a general in the army, the King of Qin is leaving today, Yiling must always have someone to garrison, with his identity is the most suitable!" ”
The man tightened his neck, the spy would be suspicious of any information, even if he was the uncle of the country?
"Don't be cranky, where did those thieves disappear yesterday?" Ye Nan didn't want to and didn't have the energy to teach his subordinates.
"The inner courtyard of the Huang family business house in the south of the city disappeared, and the more than 70 members of the Huang family were all imprisoned in the back house, and when they were rescued, they were almost dead, and this group of people occupied the Huang family business house for not a day or two." The squire replied.
Ye Nan thought for a moment and shook his head, there was a problem here, and said: "Interrogate the people of the Huang family again, 'Zhu Yan' has always been cruel in doing things, and dying is not their way, someone in the Huang family must collude with them!" ”
Gu Xifeng looked very cramped in the Yiling General's Mansion, and he didn't know why, Gu Xifeng was always afraid in front of Meng Yan, and he was not even as good as Gu Yanfeng in the position of Uncle Guo.
"Uncle, there haven't been many things in Langzhong in recent years, and there will be many wars in Jiangbei in the future, I want to transfer you to Yiling, what do you think?" Meng Yan looked at the nervous Gu Xifeng and was quite helpless.
"But according to His Majesty's orders, the minister will go anywhere." Gu Xifeng's answer was very official.
Meng Yan shook his head and glanced at Gu Qingfeng, Gu Qingfeng smiled slightly and understood what Meng Yan meant, and then Meng Yan said: "Queen, you brothers and sisters get together more and talk, the eleventh is going to return to Hanzhong today, I will go and explain a few words to him." ”
Meng Yan took Yu Geng away, Gu Qingfeng asked Yan Lan to send the attendants away, poured Gu Xifeng a glass of wine and said softly, "Brother, don't you want to come over?" ”
Gu Xifeng breathed a sigh of relief and said: "No, it's just that I have been in the rear for so many years, and I am really about to get moldy after a long time without a battle, you don't know how simple the folk customs of Beichuan have been since the implementation of the national policy in Beichuan, and if a few military horses are lost in the camp, the people will spontaneously send them over." ”
"Isn't that bad?" Gu Qingfeng said while distributing vegetables.
"That's good! But I am a soldier, and I really wanted to go into battle to kill the enemy in Tongguan with the prince some time ago. Gu Xifeng's words were full of yearning.
"Brother, the Yiling bandits are not ordinary bandits, presumably you should have heard something in the past few years, 'Zhu Yan' is getting more and more fierce, they incite the people to make trouble, and the bloody suppression of the imperial court will cause contradictions between the people and the imperial court, and it is their handiwork that the Ling army changed that day and night, do you understand?" Gu Qingfeng said meaningfully, she wanted her brother to understand that it was not a simple matter to garrison Yiling.
Gu Xifeng looked at his sister with a puzzled expression, a little puzzled.
"Your Majesty asked you to garrison Yiling, first, I want you to stabilize Yiling, and second, it is clear that Your Majesty intends to deploy to the north, once the war in the north starts, the Yiling army is the second echelon to go up, otherwise why would Your Majesty open a branch of Bai Zewu Academy in Yiling?" Gu Qingfeng really has nothing to say about his brother's comprehension.
Gu Xifeng suddenly realized and said, "Your Majesty wants to make Yiling a springboard for entering the north!" ”
"It's good to understand, Jiangxia is the granary, and Yiling is the source of soldiers!"
Gu Xifeng nodded vigorously and said, "That Yiling is indeed much more important than Beichuan now, you can rest assured that I will definitely settle Yiling!" ”
Gu Qingfeng said helplessly: "Brother, you still don't understand, it's not your business to track down 'Zhu Yan', what Mingjian Division and the White Clothes Temple will do, what you want is to stabilize the people's hearts and develop commerce, isn't the Shanghou dredging the trade routes in the Western Regions?" You can look for him, if you pull the trade routes between the east and the west to the territory of Shangyong and Yiling, do you think the people will rebel? The first branch of Bai Zewu Academy will be completed in Yiling immediately, to ensure their safety, this is your own people, Your Majesty will trust you so much. ”
Gu Xifeng grinned and said, "You know, every time I see Your Majesty, I am nervous, where can I think so much!" ”
"I don't know what's going on, Brother Yanfeng and His Majesty can have a heart-to-heart relationship, you can't, every time I explain something to you, I have to say, do you really think Your Majesty is going to send King Qin?"
Gu Xifeng scratched his head and said, "Since Your Majesty is not here, it is better to talk to you, you have to worry about the marriage of your niece and nephew!" Every time your sister-in-law writes about this, she's going to be annoyed to death! ”
"Didn't Pan'er fall in love with a student in Qingyang Academy? I've heard that there is affection between them, what? Sister-in-law doesn't want to? Gu Qingfeng had a bad premonition.
Gu Xifeng smiled awkwardly and said, "It's not like you're making trouble!" ”
Gu Qingfeng said with a cold face: "Sister-in-law is a bit excessive, what she means is not what a relative should have!" ”
The majesty of the queen mother burst out in an instant, which startled Gu Xifeng, who was about to drink, he had never seen his sister have such a temper.
"You don't know your sister-in-law, you always think that we are nobles and want to marry a high-ranking family." Gu Xifeng explained at a loss.
It's okay not to explain, this explanation made Gu Qingfeng even more unhappy, only to see Gu Qingfeng get up and say angrily: "Brother, the matter of children's marriage is under the control of this palace, if the sister-in-law insists on doing it, don't blame the sister for turning her face, when the time comes, when the people's court invites the sister-in-law to come to the door, the reputation of the Gu family, which has been restored so hard over the years, will be burned again!" ”
This is scary, the Gu family is carrying the original sin in Daxuan, because it is absolutely impossible for such a thing to let the Gu family fall into the abyss again, Gu Xifeng hurriedly said: "Don't worry, I will write to her immediately to tell her that she can't mess around, as for the marriage as long as the children don't mess around, I will never interfere!" ”
Meng Yan, who was hiding in the ear room and drinking with Yu Geng, looked at Gu Xifeng's figure and said in a hurry: "My uncle's ability is not great, but the ability to make people angry is indeed full, and the queen can be angry like this with such a good temper, you tell me how capable he is!" ”
"Your Majesty, Beichuan Gong and Lu Ping are a bit similar, they always think too much, and they think about things they shouldn't think, which makes them panic all day long!" Yu Geng said with disdain.
"Don't talk about him, the matter here in Yiling is almost over, tiger, you have to leave in advance, go to Fuling to fight the front station first, although Yiling is bewitched, but some things do exist, and the problem of Dongchuan does have to be solved, needless to say, you can think of those old people who are doing demons with your toes."
Yu Geng changed his posture to eat meat, and responded: "Your Majesty is right, when the old minister was transferred from western Sichuan to Xingtan, he passed through Dongchuan, and those dog things will be enjoyed, it stands to reason that Baoqing is our old place, who would have thought that these goods would run to Dongchuan to toss, don't worry, I cleaned them up in advance." ”
Meng Yan held his cup and said to Yu Geng: "It's not for you to clean up them, they will definitely entertain you when you are handsome, you will see how far they have come for me, to say that I don't want the Shen Criminal Division to come over." ”
It could be seen that Meng Yan hated iron and steel, Yu Geng picked up the wine jar and drank it all, then wiped his mouth and said: "Your Majesty, don't be polite to them, damn it, after too many years, I forgot why our masters worked so hard to fight the world back then!" Three Taiwans, four halls, six divisions, and the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion should also be rectified! ”
Meng Yan raised his eyebrows and said jokingly: "What? Tiger, I think you can go to Shang Shuling! ”
Yu Geng hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Your Majesty, you can spare me, leave that matter to Lao Zhuo to do, I don't have the ability to do it." ”
"Well, when I go to Dongchuan, I should eat and drink, I will take care of everything, and leave the rest to Ancan."
"Ancan?! Your Majesty plans to let An Cang clean up Dongchuan?! Isn't that going to be a river of blood?! Yu Geng's jaw was about to fall.
There is only one way for An Cang to clean up Dongchuan, that is, the marching method, coupled with the cooperation of the Prudent Criminal Division, it is a cold sweat to think about, Your Majesty is going to be ruthless! If the matter gets bigger, those old buddies in Chengdu may be implicated, and the use of the Prudent Criminal Division is to avoid the inner courtyard of Wang Mengshen of Dongchuan County.
"Quickly cut through the mess, rest assured, they are all old brothers as long as they are sensible and will not embarrass them too much, a new pattern has been formed, we will face great challenges in the future, and there must be no internal problems, tigers, you must know that if the weeds are not removed, they will be overgrown with weeds, and it will be difficult for small saplings to grow."
Yu Geng also stopped talking, he agreed with Meng Yan's approach, got up and prepared to leave, and then thought for a while and said: "Your Majesty, transfer a team of internal guards to the old ministers, those people will restrain when they see that the internal guards are smart, and it is more appropriate for the unintelligent internal guards to deal with them." ”
Meng Yan nodded in agreement, waved his hand to let Yu Geng go down, he sat quietly in the ear room alone, and drank his only son, and did not move his body until Gu Qingfeng came in in the evening.
"Brother's side?" Meng Yan said in a hoarse voice.
Gu Qingfeng saw that there was still wine left on the table, poured himself a glass and finished it in one sip, and then said after a while: "The concubines want to return to Chengdu as soon as possible, if they don't go back, they will make a fuss!" ”
Meng Yan was not surprised, and said, "It's okay, it's time to close the net." ”
"What about you? Or do you want to go to Fuling? Gu Qingfeng looked physically and mentally exhausted.
"I'll go to Bazhou, let the tiger go to Fuling, the internal guards brought by An Cang have arrived in Bazhou, can't make trouble, as long as there is something in Fuling, Bazhou is the most convenient to send troops!"
The husband and wife suddenly fell into endless sorrow, and the atmosphere suddenly became depressed, until the sun set, Meng Yan stretched his waist and said, "Let's go, let's go back to the boat, I can't stay in this mansion for a quarter of an hour!" ”
Gu Qingfeng suddenly grabbed Meng Yan's arm sadly and whispered: "This power can really make people fascinated, whether it is Zhuo Gong or Ye Shuai, does this kind of affection have to come to this point?" ”
