Chapter 345: The Old Man's Decision (Part II)

The early winter of the Beijing division is quite cold, although the snow has not fallen, but the frost has fallen, if there is wind, it will be cold on the body, which makes people goosebumps, but it is even colder - although the court did not clearly indicate the defeat of the front line, but the people in the Beijing division knew the result, rumors spread all over the street, a group of eight banners and magnates shouted revenge, and the wind of the main battle overwhelmed everything, but the competition for the position of the commander who went out again was surging, Not only the courtiers, but even the officials from all over the country who elected the handsome position flocked to the signing room like snowflakes, and the ministers of the study were busy.

Among a group of brothers with big hearts, Yinzhen is almost the latest to get the news, without him, Yinzhen has not many servants in the official face, and the dark forces have also lost a lot after the battle in Shanxi, and he doesn't have too many financial resources, and it is not good for him to come forward to make money for the sake of fame, how can it be so easy to build the team again, until the streets are all over the street, Yinzhen learned that the front line was defeated by Zhun Xin'er, and he was shocked and saw a glimmer of hope, and hurriedly discussed with a group of henchmen.

Master Wenjue stroked the flowing snow-white long beard on his chest, groaned for a while, and took the lead in speaking: "Lord Wang, it is imperative to go on the expedition again, but this handsome position is a key, I am a country in the Qing Dynasty with military force, I have soldiers in my hands, and I don't panic in my heart. ”

"Well, although this king has never brought soldiers, he can still succeed in the town, and he must not let Xiao Xiao go proudly, this king will recommend himself, or let Nian Qianyao go." Yin Zhen said with a blushing face.

Nian Qianyao has just been promoted to the general of Guangzhou, and he came from Sichuan non-stop, and it was not long after he arrived at the Yongwang Mansion, at this time he listened to Yinzhen's words, and immediately said loudly: "Master rest assured, the slave dare not say anything else, and he has not been afraid of anyone in leading the army to fight, as long as the master is in charge, the war in front will be handed over to the slave to handle it, and the master will be called to win and return." ”

"Hahaha......" Tang Guoming laughed loudly, laughing so much that Nian Qianyao's face couldn't hold back, and he snorted coldly: "Why, Mr. Tang can't look down on Nian's soldiers?" ”

"Non-yes, non-yes, Lianggong is both civil and military, and a certain has always been admired." Tang Guoming shook the feather fan, and said with the appearance of Zhuge Liang's reincarnation: "The holy will has been decided, there is no way to fight for the handsome position, except for the fourteenth master, there is no way to take on this important responsibility, if the prince wants to compete for the handsome position, there is no place to make the saint suspicious." ”

"Oh? Why did you say that, sir? Yin Zhen was stunned for a moment.

"It's no secret that the saint is in good health, well, the fourteenth master is in charge of the military department, although I have no military power in the military department, but the power of military selection is still there, in this way, the fourteenth master has a lot of people in the army, and the fourteenth master went out to fight in Dongying and returned triumphantly, originally known as prestige in the army, these two are combined, this handsome position can be replaced by no one else except the fourteenth master." Tang Guoming said with a smile.

"Not necessarily. The sixth master seems to be also a good hand at fighting, can he easily let the handsome position fall aside? Nian didn't believe that the sixth master could really trust the fourteenth master. Nian Qianyao said unconvinced.

"Liang Gong's words are to the point." Tang Guoming sneered and said: "It is impossible for the sixth master to lead the troops, the saint believes in him, without him, the sixth master has clever means, there is no need to say more, there is money in his hands, and there are people who want people, if the sixth master is allowed to lead the troops, I am afraid that the matter of Xuanwumen will have to be staged again in my dynasty." As for whether the sixth master can trust the fourteenth master, hey, naturally he can't believe it, Lord Wang, do you remember when the sixth master came to the house ten days ago? ”

Yin Zhen thought for a while, and then remembered that Yin Zuo had come to ask for the two grains, his eyes flashed cold, his pupils contracted suddenly, and he said abruptly: "How can this be?" At that time, this battle had not been fought yet, this ......"

Tang Guoming nodded very sadly and said: "That's the way it is, alas, the sixth master is clever, everything can be expected in advance, and now the Western Expedition Grain Road is in the hands of the sixth master, the fourteenth master, hey, the fourteenth master has to make a big deal if he is not good, but this matter is also an opportunity for the prince." ”

"Oh?" Yin Zhen was moved and asked, "The opportunity that Mr. said is ......?"

Tang Guoming straightened his face and calmly analyzed: "The Fourteenth Master has always followed the Sixth Master closely, but the Fourteenth Master has been very careful, and at this time when the Holy Master is not in good health, he will put the Fourteenth Master outside as a handsome, firstly, to prevent the Fourteenth Master from having the opportunity to collude with the Sixth Master to cause right and wrong, and secondly, it is not to protect the Fourteenth Master, no matter who succeeds to the throne in the future, the Fourteenth Master will not fall too deep." In fact, it is the same reason that the saint ordered the prince to study behind closed doors at home, but the prince is different from the fourteenth master, the fourteenth master has no hope of succeeding to the throne, and the prince is still in the undecided day, and those who can inherit the throne are nothing more than the sixth master and the prince, as for the eighth master, he is just a clown who jumps off the beam, and there is no hope at all. Now the sixth master has the upper hand, well, it should be said that he has the absolute upper hand, but the prince is not without a glimmer of hope, and this hope falls on this expedition. ”

Yin Zhen pulled his sleeves and saluted respectfully: "This king is unknown, please give me advice." ”

Tang Guoming hurriedly got up and respectfully returned the salute and said: "Don't be like this, the prince is deeply loved by the prince, and he should repay him with death." This matter is actually very simple, the prince only needs to support the fourteenth master out of the handsome seal, and then said that he is familiar with the grain road matters, and takes the initiative to request logistics support for the army, so that he can vote for the favor of the fourteenth master, and the other can be praised by the saint, if he can win this mission, the prince can come back, and then do more work on the fourteenth master, do not worry about not being able to hold the fourteenth master, at that time, if the sixth master gets the edict, the prince is not without a fight, and then the thirteenth master, well, the prince can let the thirteenth master go to Beigukou to train the armyAmong the elder brothers in the court, the thirteenth master has always been as famous as the fourteenth master, and it makes sense to let the thirteenth master train a new army for the fourteenth master, even if it is a saint, it will not be a problem, the two ends are integrated, why should the prince worry about the big thing? ”

Yin Zhen pondered silently for a long time, pacing back and forth in the room, and after a long time, he gritted his teeth and said: "Okay, according to what Mr. said, this king will go to the old fourteen." ”

Busy! Busy! Busy! Yinzuo is busy these days, since the old man is tired of politics, the workload of the ministers in the study has been much larger, and the things are originally miscellaneous, as soon as the news of the defeat spreads, those chapters that have flown in have made the ministers of the study a headache, and they have to sort out the folds of those letters of war while dealing with normal affairs, and the ministers of the study who were originally on duty have no blessings of rest when they arrive here, and five or six ministers of the study are crowded in the Jenning House of Changchun Garden and work hard.

Exhausted! Damn, it's been a really tiring day! Yinzuo raised his head from the pile of folds, got up, walked around the room, moved his hands and feet that had been sitting for a long time and were a little stiff, and just wanted to stretch his waist, Li Zhenyu, who was in charge of the book-preserving chapters, stood up, walked to Yinzuo's side, held a list in his hand and said: "Lord Wang, the preserving capital in the past three days has been cleaned up, a total of six hundred and forty-eight copies, except for the excerpts in Yungui and other places that are far away, the rest have been counted." ”

"Oh, thank you for your hard work, Lord Li." Yinzuo nodded, took the list with his hand, glanced at it, and immediately found that there was something strange in it - there were more than 390 of the 10 Yinzuo who were in charge, and there were more than 100 copies of the 14th Yinzuo, and there were almost more than 100 copies of the Yinzuo book, most of them were military generals, and the other elder brothers also had their own capital protection, but there were not many, and there were quite a few people who recommended Mao Sui to ask for the commander.

Hey, the eighth child is really moving, damn, he can actually incite more than 300 ministers who have the power to go to the top, this kid's hand in the official face is really broad, but he is just doing useless work, the more fierce the trouble is at this time, the old man must be even more jealous, and the old man will have to suffer again. Yinzuo despised a handful of old eights in his heart, but he was secretly proud that he could have a large group of military generals to protect himself without launching the capital protection - those who win the hearts of the army can win the world, and only in the barrel of the gun can power come out, isn't it?

Yinzuo glanced at Li Zhenyu and asked casually: "Has the fourth master ever been on the book?" ”

"Back to the prince's words, the fourth master is also on this chapter, please take a look." Li Zhenyu turned around and flipped through the thick stack of recitals on the table, took out Yinzhen's recitals from the top books, and handed them to Yinzuo.

, The fourth bastard is really as thief-hearted as Wu and Lin guessed, damn, this bastard is so vicious and vicious, hey, I must have seen our arrangements on the grain road, but let you be like a ghost, you have to drink our footwater. Yin Zuo sneered secretly in his heart, and he didn't bother to pay much attention to it, so he smiled and said, "Master Li, since it's all sorted out, let's go to the internal affairs office and enter the imperial review." Li Zhenyu nodded yes, waved his hand to summon a Lang official, explained a few words, and let the Lang official go to the internal recital with a thick recital, Yinzuo didn't care much, sat down and continued to bury his head in correcting the excerpts, thinking that these recitals go up, the old man is to have a holy decree down, and he will have to do tomorrow at the earliest, but he didn't expect that Yinzuo's letter of recital had not been approved, and a little eunuch hurried to announce the old man Kangxi's dictatorship: "Prince Chuanyi Yinzuo, Minister Ma Qi of the Upper Study, and Zhang Tingyu will meet you." ”

Well? It's going to be decided so soon? Yinzuo was stunned for a moment, looked at Ma Qi and Zhang Tingyu, who had already gotten up, laughed self-deprecatingly, stabilized his mind, and also got up, took out a silver ticket from his sleeve, and didn't look at how many taels it was, and directly rewarded the little eunuch who came to deliver the decree, and said with a smile: "There is Gonggong Lao, let's lead the way in front of the head." ”

The little eunuch was very skillful in accepting the silver ticket, peeking at it, it was a silver ticket of two hundred taels, and suddenly his eyes were squinted with joy, and he led the three ministers of the study to look at the smoke wave to the Shuang Pavilion, and the flattery along the way was endless, and the horse's fart was loud, and Ma Qi and Zhang Tingyu frowned, Yinzuo had something in his heart, but it didn't matter, he hurried all the way to the Yanbo Zhishuang Pavilion, and as soon as he entered the room, he saw the old man Kangxi leaning on the collapse with a pale face, and he was holding a fold to read it.

"Erchen has seen Huang Ama." Yinzuo didn't dare to take a closer look at whose handwriting it was, so he knelt on the ground and asked the old man to say goodbye, and Ma Qi and Zhang Tingyu also stepped forward to kneel down.

The old man Kangxi didn't raise his head, but just said: "Excuse me!" When everyone got up, the old man Kangxi grabbed a red pen that rested on the shelf on the collapse, quickly approved a few words on the fold, threw it to Yinzuo, and said with a sneer: "Xiao Liu'er, take a good look at this fold, hum." ”

What made the old man so angry? Yinzuo hurriedly picked up the fold on the ground, and as soon as he entered his eyes, he saw a few big words on it - wolf ambition. Looking at it again, it was Lao Shi's self-recommendation, and he quickly passed the excerpt, although he was very relieved, but his face pretended to be frightened, and he knelt down and said: "Huang Ama is angry, although the tenth brother is reckless, but it is also a good thing to have the heart to serve the country, and he should not make such a heavy comment, and the son implores Huang Ama to retract this statement." Ma Qi and Zhang Tingyu, who were standing on the side, were both clever people, and they didn't need to look at the comments to know that the old man was about to attack the old ten, so he hurriedly took the fold in Yinzuo's hand, looked at it together, and knelt down, kowtowing to each other.

"Hmph, the heart of serving the country, how can this bastard ever have the heart of serving the country, come, the order will be sent to the title of Viscount Bei of the Ten Elder Brothers, and the Sona Zongren Mansion will be questioned!" Old man Kangxi shouted angrily.

"Huang Ama can't help it, even if the tenth brother is wrong, but he can't be guilty of this, and the son begs Huang Ama to calm his anger." Yinzuo hurriedly kowtowed and persuaded like pounding garlic.

"Your Majesty, you must not, the tenth elder brother is eager to fight, and he must not be guilty because of this, otherwise it will chill the hearts of the soldiers." Zhang Tingyu also exhorted loudly.

"Yes, the saint is angry, the tenth elder brother is at fault, just a little punishment, and the morale of the army can no longer be frustrated." Ma Qi also chimed in.

The old man Kangxi gasped a few times, sighed, waved his hand and said, "That's it, get up, I will send a decree to prepare for the expedition today!" ”
