Chapter 315 Peace Negotiation (II)
Cushman & Wakefield pays attention to efficiency, and it is always said to go.
In the middle of the month, the line is out of Yanmen, turning to Yingxian and Hunyuan, and reaching Pingcheng. At this time, there was not much wind and snow, the temperature was gradually warming, and the flat fertile field was covered with only a thin layer of snow.
Due to the proper cooperation between Yang Yan and Lao Murong, this land of Yanbei is actually quite peaceful, except for the people who have been tossed to the bone, not many people have starved to death or died in battle, and most of them have been preserved. At the same time, he was also a little more sure of the ability of the court bureaucrats and local officials such as Yuan Jing'an, but Yuan Jing'an ......
Gao Wei always has a thorn in his heart, although he will not grit his teeth with hatred, but the disgust is certain. As for Di Fulian, he was demoted because he was mixed with Gao Yan, although he had to protect him because of the last order of the first emperor Gao Zhan, and he was loyal to the emperor, but he was reluctant to use Gao Wei by his side, so he was demoted to Youzhou.
But no matter what, they have also made great contributions this time, this is not false, and it is impossible for Gao Wei to wipe them out. On the other hand, isn't he confident that even a few ministers who have been suppressed to the point of becoming a climate should be suspicious and wary? At the beginning of the pro-government, Cushman & Wakefield wanted to reform, but after all, he was young, suspicious of the lord and the country, and extremely insecure, so he took these things seriously as a major matter...... In that case, it is better to give them a reward.
Cushman thought silently, and wiped the two off the cleanup list. Pingcheng is not far away, but three days to arrive, Pingcheng is the place of Tuoba Longxing, once became the political, cultural, economic center of the north, the whole city is surrounded by the Great Wall, there are forest gardens, palaces and temples left by the Northern Wei Dynasty in the city, even if the glory is not there, the Pingcheng at this time looks a little magnificent.
Before the emperor arrived, a group of local civil and military officers and a group of chieftains came out to greet him. But seeing the howling cold wind, the flags outside are like the sea, the dense cavalry looms in the wind and snow, the military array is like a vast wave, the winter cold is still there, but nothing can be heard outside the city except the neighing of war horses, the metropolitan governor Wang Lin went out of the battle, entered the city first, and took over the defense of the city.
Both inside and outside the city are solemn, a team of armored horsemen lined up on the side of the road, patrolling back and forth, and the people in Tsing Yi and swords in the brigade collected all the weapons in the crowd. That kind of strict military discipline and heavy evil spirit make people suffocate when they see it. The people present were all taken by Tianwei, who was originally very restrained, but now his posture is more cautious.
"This is our Khan of Great Qi...... "The people of all ethnic groups were in awe, and they were under the majesty of the Son of Heaven. It was no one else who came to greet him, it was Yuan Jing'an, who was ordered to coordinate all logistics, transportation, and public security, but in a few years, he was much older, and when he saw the emperor slowly coming, he immediately lowered his waist and did not dare to raise his head.
Gao Wei opened the curtain of the car, didn't want to be helped, got out of the car directly, and said with a smile: "All the Qings are flat." ”
Only then did the Hu chiefs dare to calm down, they were still restrained, and they didn't dare to breathe.
The imperial court has been strictly controlled in the past few years, and they have to be careful about the officials who have been parachuted down from the imperial court, not to mention that the one in front of them is His Majesty the Emperor.
Even if Gao Wei behaved very close to the people, as if he was harmless to humans and animals, it was probably just lip service, and they didn't dare to take the emperor's politeness seriously.
The things that this did after his father kicked his legs and ascended to heaven really scared them and the nobles and interest groups behind them, in short, it was right to treat the emperor as an ancestor and offer it highly!
So no matter what the emperor asked them in person, they just blindly promised what they should be, and the less they said was the less wrong they were!
Compared to them, Cushman & Wakefield is obviously a little depressed. He feels that he is still very close to the people, except for the ministers, he basically doesn't put up any fights, but why are these people so afraid of him?
Gao Wei didn't ask a few more questions, and everyone put on a smiling face to serve his grandmother to respond.
Glancing around, there are smiling faces carved out of a mold everywhere, squinting and grinning, just smirking, looking excited and grateful, I'm afraid that serving my father and mother is not so attentive.
It's uglier than crying.
[Failed political show.] Cushman & Wakefield commented in his heart.
After a long time, Gao Wei felt a little tired, so he shifted his attention to Yuan Jing'an.
Although the emperor had already leveled everyone, Yuan Jing'an still bowed and stood. Standing out from the crowd.
[Is he expressing his dissatisfaction with me? Gao Wei thought of this for the first time, and then he was rejected by himself.
So Gao Wei smiled slightly, grabbed his arm with one hand, and helped him up, "What is Yuan Qing doing, didn't I say that I would be flat a long time ago?" ”
Yuan Jing'an's beard and hair are almost white, where can he withstand this? Immediately, his lips trembled a little, and when he looked at the emperor, there were a few more tears in his eyes, and then the tears fell. Cushman & Wakefield's kind words reassure:
"Fortunately, everything in this northern Xinjiang is a mess, and ordinary people can't do it, that is, you can do it...... With you in the back, my army can be invincible without worries, and I have remembered your great achievements. ”
"Where is the duty of the minister, I dare not say that I am happy!" Yuan Jingan hurriedly wiped a handful of tears and said loudly with his neck in his hands. Somehow just now, I actually cried in front of the emperor, it's just undecent!
The rest of the civil and military forces watched from the sidelines, and secretly said that this Yuan Jing'an is really running at the right time, and after he has done something bad, he can still rely on a great achievement to turn over.
There is also a little sour in my heart, except for Zhao Yanshen, Duan Shao, Hu Luguang and a few kings, others don't have this treatment!
Gao Wei casually appeased a few more words, and then led a group of ministers into the city, although most of the palace rooms in Pingcheng were dilapidated, they could still live in the tidying up, and there were not many concubines and palace people brought by the emperor, and they were all settled before dark. Not long after everyone settled down, Zuo Xiang Lao Murong came murderously again, and began to spray as soon as he stood up.
Of course, it was not Gao Wei who sprayed, it was Tang Yong who sprayed: "...... The minister knew that he was impetuous and reckless, but he was so frivolous, all the way, His Majesty only had thousands of soldiers and horses to guard, if there was a mistake in the middle of the road, how about the country? What about social welfare? …… The lower cannot appease Li Shu, the upper cannot persuade the king, and only blindly flatters the master, what is the use of such a person? ……”
Tang Yong He had been scolded like this, and his face was blue and red at that time, but Lao Murong was his top boss, and he occupied the moral high ground at this time, Tang Yong would never dare to talk to him. At the same time, Gao Wei's face was also a little stiff, Lao Murong was talking with a gun and a stick, it seemed that he was scolding Tang Yong, but in fact, even he was scolded together, impetuous, frivolous, reckless, pile by pile, isn't it him?
Once upon a time, Cushman & Wakefield also had this time? Cushman & Wakefield himself is almost out of memory. However, there is no need to doubt that Old Murong is loyal, if it were Gao Wei, it would be him, and it would be estimated that he would be angry, and it would be good if he didn't resign on the spot.
I was secretly glad that there were only three people present, otherwise this face would have been lost, and even Hu Luguang, an upright old man, had never trained him in person......
Despite the discomfort, I endured it. I pity Tang Yong, I stood there and was scolded for a full quarter of an hour, and I don't know what kind of perseverance he persevered.
In fact, Tang Yong's eyes also hinted that Gao Wei would relieve him, but Gao Wei completely forgot the previous promise that "I will take all the responsibilities alone, and promise not to confess you." "Pretending to be deaf during the whole process, you should not hear it.
When Old Murong scolded a little thirsty, he licked his dry lips. Gao Wei caught a glimpse of the opportunity, and said: "Zuo Xiang has been tired all the way, let's rest first, let's talk about it, come here, prepare wine and food......"
When Tang Yong heard that he was going to eat with this old man, he almost fainted.
Fortunately, the old Murong was very busy, and he didn't bother to bother with him anymore, so he hesitated for a while and then retreated on the grounds that there were still many things to deal with.
Gao Wei pretended to tell him not to be so happy, but in fact, he was happy to leave quickly.
Old Murong really didn't have time, he was suddenly airborne by the emperor, and part of the layout was obviously inappropriate, and he had to hurry up to arrange the defense, army mobilization and other issues before the Turks found out, fortunately, the base camp of the Northern Qi army was already in Pingcheng, which saved him a lot of effort, otherwise he would have to crash to death on the pillar at this juncture!
