Chapter 336: Stay
Since Yu Zhong gave that tougher order to the generals of Yunnan, although I don't know if those people obeyed, the continuous good news all the way stopped being presented to him. By the time he and Alinga led the army to Kunming, the officials in Yunnan who had been on the table were also waiting for him there.
However, there are not many people who welcome them at the city gate, led by Gan Guobi, the current governor of Yunnan, who has been transferred by the official document of the Ministry of Officials, and the rest of the people are from political envoys and envoys to some nearby prefects and garrisons, and what makes people feel a little strange is that there are very few military generals here.
"Lord Gan, why didn't you see that Admiral Hadi just now?"
Yu Zhong and A Ling'a didn't waste too much time at the welcome ceremony, and after hastily eating the reception banquet with a group of officials, they soon came to the prepared mansion under Gan Guobi's arrangement, and as soon as they sat down, Yu Zhong asked the outgoing governor.
"The Governor is asking about Ha Yuansheng?" When Gan Guobi heard Yu Zhong's words, his face, which was still smiling, suddenly darkened, and he asked again.
"Of course it's Ha Yuansheng. Where is he? Yu Zhong asked again.
"Your Excellency the Governor, Admiral Ha has not yet returned to Kunming, and as for where he is now, I don't know too much about his humble position, but I only know that he seems to be in the Yuanjiang area now." Gan Guobi hesitated for a moment and said.
"The Yuanjiang area? Isn't the ground a little bigger? Lord Gan, as the governor of Yunnan, why don't you even know about the affairs in the territory? Can Ha Yuan give birth to a big living person? Alinga asked, a little displeased.
"Master A", although Gan Guobi is also a governor, and he is currently at the same level as Alinga, but he is about to step down, and he doesn't know where to be transferred, and Alinga has a hard brand, and he has been in the imperial court for many years. Therefore, Gan Guobi was not annoyed by the unreasonable words of the new governor who was going to succeed him, but replied tepidly: "My lord, Yunnan is not as good as him.
The terrain is complex and surrounded by mountains. Since the day Ha Yuansheng led the troops to the battle, he only sent someone to ask Gan for the transfer of grain and grass, and as for the rest, he did not report to Gan. ”
"Didn't report? And where will your grain and grass go? Alinga frowned. I asked again. Although the governor and the admiral are in charge of administration and military affairs, even so, there is no reason why they should not even exchange the slightest military information.
"My lord, Ha Yuansheng sends troops to transport them every time, and although Gan has not received any military reports, he also roughly knows where the officials and soldiers are." Gan Guobi replied.
"Every time a troop is sent to transport him, even the governor does not know where he is...... Hmph, that's not what you mean. My orders haven't been passed down to other armies yet? Yu Zhong asked again.
"This. It shouldn't be ......," Gan Guobi glanced at Yu Zhong quickly, lowered his head and said.
"Ha Yuansheng asked for grain and grass a few times, when did he ask for it last time. How much do you want each time? Yu Zhong asked again.
"This ......" Gan Guobi was slightly stunned, and immediately bowed his head and replied: "Back to the Governor, since the time of the army, Admiral Ha has asked for grain and grass four times, each time about 10,000 stones, and the last time was half a month ago. ”
"Half a month ago...... Lord Gan, how many years have you been an official in Yunnan? Yu Zhong asked Gan Guobi again.
"Back to the Governor, I have been here for seven years since I first served as a political envoy and then as a governor in Yunnan!" Gan Guobi replied.
"Seven years ......" Yu Zhong smashed and "touched" his mouth. His eyes were fixed on Gan Guobi. Over the years, although he has been living a prosperous life on the surface, only they will understand how much brains he has used in private. Because he always needs to think about how to go next, how to plan, how to deal with it, and intrigue with those people in the officialdom, he has long practiced a meticulous mind. And just from the mouth of this surnamed Gan, he got a little bit of information about "touching". However, based on this information alone, he was not sure if his guess was correct, so he had to let the other party leak more information. However, he didn't think of how to ask, and Alinga next to him began to fire "cannons" at Gan Guobi again:
"Lord Gan, in seven years, are you only earning the name of a governor, and you can't do anything else?"
"Master Ah......" Gan Guobi secretly took a breath and suppressed the fireworks in his chest, Ah Ling's words offended him. He actually said that he, the governor, "can't do anything", doesn't this mean that he is the same as "waste"? However, Alinga was so aggressive in "forced" people that he didn't expect in advance, in the information he got, if it was Yu Zhong, he could still accept it, this newly arrived governor is a "murder king" in the legend, and it is natural to speak a little rush, but isn't Alinga sent by the emperor to restrain Yu Zhong? But how does it sound like this guy is helping Yu Zhong and questioning him?
"Lord Gan, I know that you have received a transfer letter from the Ministry of Officials...... It's just that I'm new to Kunming and I don't know anything, and I'm afraid I need your help with many things, so I ask you to spend more time in Kunming and do me and Master A a favor, how about it? Yu Zhong saw that there seemed to be some discord between Gan Guobi and Ah Ling'a, so he smiled and said again. He could understand why Alinga targeted Gan Guobi. Who called this Gan Da Governor seems to have some unexplained relationship with which third elder brother Yinzhi? Although he has been in a foreign country in the past few years, he still knows everything about Beijing. As the saying goes, "there are no tigers in the mountains, and the monkeys are kings". When the eldest Yinzhen, the second Yinren, the eighth Yinren and others were on the ground, Yinzhi and his gang couldn't get on the stage at all, but now one of the three powerful princes went overseas, one was abandoned and guarded on the island, and the other was sent to Fengtian to "recuperate", and Yinzhi and his gang began to show some prestige. Alinga used to be the backbone of the Eight Masters Party, and he usually acted arrogantly, relying on his close relationship with Kangxi and not liking to take people in his eyes, and offended Yinzhi. Moreover, in the past two years, he began to fall out of favor again, and naturally became the target of Yinzhi's gang, and this time he was brought to Yunnan as a governor, and it is said that he was the ghost of the third elder brother and his gang. Therefore, although he has begun to adopt his heart and nurture "sex", Alinga still can't help but put a gun and a stick on Gan Guobi in his words.
"Your Excellency the Governor, the official document of the Ministry of Officials has arrived, but the humble post must be taken within three months!"
Gan Guobi didn't know what Yu Zhong was thinking at this time. After hearing Yu Zhong's words and seeing the other party's smile, he couldn't care about being angry with Ah Ling'a anymore. Are you kidding? As soon as Aling'a, the new governor of Yunnan, arrived, he should step down and leave, how could he still stay? Not to mention that he violated the laws of the imperial court in this way, even if he stayed, what kind of person could he be?
"Well, I will write to the court to explain, I think. In order to solve the current affairs in Yunnan as soon as possible, the emperor will definitely play it. Yu Zhong smiled again and said.
"Your Excellency the Governor......" Gan Guobi secretly wiped a handful of sweat, and Yu Zhong's smile that seemed very gentle looked very sinister in his eyes at this time. Remain? If he really does what the other party says, then his future road will be troublesome. Originally, as soon as he stepped down, he would have nothing to do with the affairs of Yunnan, and he could easily get promoted and make a fortune. However, if he stayed, would he, the governor who should have left office, still be able to compete with the governor of Yungui? In that way, he naturally became Yu Zhong's "subordinate". Before settling these affairs in Yunnan or issuing an official document from the imperial court to let him leave.
He will be mastered by him. During this period of time, if the official position that the Ministry had previously promised him was robbed by others, or if Yu Zhongshangshu said that he was ineffective in handling affairs, etc. All he could do was cry. He shouldn't have anything to do with Yu Zhong! Why should we be at the mercy of others?
"Lord Gan doesn't have to worry, Lord Yu has the Shang Fang Sword and the King's Order Banner in his hand, even if he doesn't write to the court, no one will dare to say anything if he stays with you for a while. You can rest assured. ”
Alinga laughed as well. Of course, Gan Guobi thought of it. He even thought of more. What does it mean that the outgoing officials were "retained" by the successors? Those who always like to guess blindly don't know what to think of, maybe Gan Guobi will have to bear a few more trumped-up charges as soon as he walks out. However, he didn't think there was anything wrong with Yu Zhong doing this. As the governor of Yunnan, Gan Guobi has been here for seven years, but he doesn't know anything about many things. Is this possible? Something must be going on here!
But people have a transfer document from the ministry, and they can leave if they say they can go, so what if they don't explain it to you? Originally, he didn't expect that Yu Zhonghui would plan to force himself to leave Gan Guobi, no matter how he said it, it would be against the imperial court system, and if he messed up, it would inevitably be a big crime. In a blink of an eye, he thought again, when was Yu Zhong and his gang not bold? But the end result is always unexpected! What's more, Yu Zhong's family has a deep background, even if he messes up this matter, I'm afraid he won't be able to hurt his muscles and bones. So.
Since Yu Zhong took the lead, he simply singled out, and warned Gan Guobi semi-threateningly on the side, reminding the other party that there was something in Yu Zhong's hands, so that Gan Guobi gave up the senseless "resistance" and obediently accepted Yu Zhongdi's request.
"Who did I recruit and provoke whom?" Gan Guobi watched Yu Zhong and A Ling'a sing and harmonize, looking at himself with a smile on his face, and couldn't help sweating slightly on his forehead. How can this matter be said to have a tendency to make a big fuss? Why was he so unlucky? Could it be that he made a mistake this year? He is in his fifties this year, he was born as a jinshi in the early stage of Kangxi, and being able to become a governor at this age can also make people see that other countries have some ability, and he still has time to continue to "climb" upwards. However, the recent days have made him a little anxious. Originally, he was very happy when he received the news from the capital that he was going to be transferred, but before the official document from the Ministry of Officials arrived, Yunnan began to make trouble. Ha Yuansheng's guy with his eyes above the top was mishandled, just thinking about using other people's heads to dye his own top, but as a result, the matter became bigger and bigger, and he couldn't hold it anymore, and Zhao Dayshan, who was in charge of the copper political department, was "scourged", but this is not over, Kangxi sent powerful people like Yu Zhong to sit in Yungui, and it was clear that he wanted to come to the real place. He was originally glad that he didn't have a deep relationship with Zhao Dayshan, and he didn't get too involved after Zhao Dayshan's incident, and he could leave here quickly, so he didn't have to stay here and suffer, but he didn't expect that Yu Zhong actually wanted to leave him behind and "Okay, I've been on the road these days, and I'm a little tired." Let's be here today.
If there is anything you can talk about tomorrow, you can stop here today. Yu Zhong saw that Gan Guobi's face was not very good, and he didn't care, just smiled and said a word to him and Ah Ling'a, and then served tea to the guests.
"Your Excellency the Governor, please rest and retire from your duties!"
When Gan Guobi heard Yu Zhong's eviction order, he happened to have a thought, and immediately got up and retired.
He had already made up his mind in his heart, now that he had received the transfer document from the ministry. simply doesn't care what Yu Zhong's charter is, he will leave Kunming when he goes back, and he will definitely not be in this troubled water, he still doesn't believe it, does Yu Zhong dare to rob him back again?
"Brother Yu, do you really plan to leave this surnamed Gan behind?"
Seeing Gan Guobi leave in a hurry as if he had been bitten by a mouse, Ah Ling'a stayed for a while, and then asked towards Yu Zhong.
"Of course. This is a witness.
How could he let him go so easily. Yu Zhong said with a smile.
"Human witnesses? Brother Yu. Do you really want to rectify that Ha Yuansheng? But that guy can't even be seen now, you can't go to the front line to arrest him, can you? Alinga said solemnly.
Although he has never had any conflict with Yu Zhongren, and he has been polite in the past few meetings, this does not mean that he is really obedient to Zhong. In fact, this time, he received instructions from Kangxi before leaving Beijing...... Listen more to the middle of the earth. Originally, there were indeed people in the imperial court who proposed Yu Zhong to serve as the secretary of the military department, and because Kangxi had always attached great importance to the battle situation in the general direction of China, he had indeed been moved by this proposal. And. Yu Zhong, a general who is always not very obedient, if he is put in the capital. It is also convenient for Kangxi to take care of him directly, and he is not afraid that he will make trouble again. However, after all, the military department Shangshu does not just need a view of the battle situation. Many more things are needed. Although Yu Zhong has been in the army for more than 20 years, and his prestige in the army is not small, he is still a little less popular after all. In particular, many generals were uncomfortable with Zhongzhong's unusual rise, so although there were many supporters, Kangxi still gave up the plan to let Yu Zhong take over the military department, and since the Yunnan incident, he simply transferred this person to the southwest. And after Kangxi decided to send Yu Zhong to Yunnan and Guizhou, he also received an order to serve as governor of Yunnan. And, after Kangxi told him about this decision. He also gave him a yellow box, which was used for the secret folding, and the meaning of this was also very clear, that is, let him look at Yu Zhong, and if there was any trouble, he would quickly send the news to Beijing. However, after staying in the capital for a long time and experiencing so many things, Alinga has also learned a lot. Although he is very loyal to Kangxi, but. He didn't want to use that yellow box as soon as he arrived in Yunnan, especially since this matter might set Yu Zhong and Ha Yuansheng, a figure like him with a lot of backstage in the capital, even more so than he wanted. Because, this time it is not two tigers fighting, the two sides fight, no matter who wins, in the end, the strength is bound to rise, and judging from the performance of both sides, after the strength rises, it is bound to squeeze the power space of him, the governor of Yunnan. This outcome was not what he wanted.
"I'm not interested in arresting people. Moreover, I believe that it will not be long before that Ha Yuansheng will arrive in Kunming. When the time comes, naturally everything will be clear. Yu Zhong didn't expect Alinga to think so much, and after hearing the other party's question, he replied with a smile.
"Brother Yu, don't blame my brother for not telling you, that Ha Yuansheng is a person who obeys the king of the county, Bumuba.
As far as I know, this prince has a bad temper, and he has always been dissatisfied with Ferdinand Ferdinand, but he can't find an excuse to find trouble, so he has not had a seizure. This Ha Yuansheng is his most proud doorman, if you have to do it, I'm afraid things won't be easy to do! Alinga said. Back then, Old Man Fei was appointed by Kangxi as the former minister, but he didn't know that this position was the land that Bu Muba had promised him, and for this reason, the dignified subway hat king also went to Tong Guowei to have a relationship, but the result was a vain work, and the old man Fei picked up the fruit. It's just that Old Man Fei has always been rigorous, and he has the credit for pacifying the prince's "chaos", so Bu Muba can't help it. Now if Yu Zhong moves Ha Yuansheng, it will definitely anger Bumuba, and at that time, one side will be the iron hat king who lacks real power but has deep roots, and the other side is a general with outstanding merits and great power but is quite suspicious, who will win and who will lose, it is really difficult to say.
"Hehe, Lord A, didn't you hear what Lord Gan said just now? That Admiral Ha sent troops to transport food by himself, and he had already asked for it four times, and each time it was 10,000 stones......" Yu Zhong said with a smile when he heard Ah Ling's words.
"What's going on?" Alinga asked.
"Not really. Now, though, I'm not worried. Yunnan, it seems that it is not as "chaotic" as we thought before! Yu Zhong said with a smile.
"Not so 'messy'?" Alinga was stunned for a moment, then dumbfounded.
"That's right. If I'm right, that's how it should be. Of course, if it weren't for my guess, it would have been a different scene, representing that the situation here was even more severe than we had expected, and there were already forces that could control Ha Yuansheng and his army, but this possibility was too small. So, I prefer to believe that our previous predictions were wrong. Yu Zhong said with a smile.
"Wrong? Isn't Yunnan so 'chaotic'? Doesn't this mean......" Alinga looked at Yu Zhong and opened his eyes wide: "Ha Yuansheng is lying about his military exploits!" Is he deceiving the court? ”
