When Park Yuanzong came out of the Qinzheng Palace, the whole person was confused.

Before entering, he was still a hero of North Korea, a capable minister who assisted the new lord Zhongzheng, and he still had to help North Korea and the suzerainty to maneuver in order to achieve a balance of power.

"Why don't you argue? I don't think your lord has much respect for you. ”

Xu Jing will fan the flames on the side, and he has also received some guidance from Tang Yin before, after all, he wants to provoke the relationship between the Korean monarch and the minister.

Park Yuanzong said: "As a subordinate, I should understand the hardships of the lord, just as the imperial court needs to employ people in Liaodong now, and I am going on behalf of North Korea for my lord's respect for His Majesty today." ”

This is righteous, and there is a determination and statement to be a loyal minister in it.

Tang Yin didn't comment on anything, just patted Park Yuanzong's shoulder indifferently, and then went straight away.

Something about that.

Believe it or not, you just have to be happy, and you don't do any less self-deception anyway.

……

……

Santun camp.

Cui Yuan and Zhu Feng withdrew their troops from the grassland, less than five days before and after, and the pain experienced by the two of them and the soldiers of the army they led along the way, only those of them who have experienced it can understand, this will also make Zhu Feng realize how important it is to be able to accurately judge the direction and be able to recognize the map clearly.

If you lead troops into the grassland, you can still get lost...... Even if you get lost, you can still run into the main force of the Tatars by mistake......

There will be no second time for this kind of shit luck, and if you enter the grassland again, you may have to sink into the sand, and you won't even have to say whether you have the life to come back.

"Brother Cui, it's a good thing, the imperial court has officially appointed you as the chief soldier of Jizhou."

Zhu Feng learned the news of the capital that day, and hurried to say hello to Cui Yuan.

But Cui Yuan didn't have any joy on his face.

Liu Yu, the governor of Jizhou, has been "brought to justice" by Zhang Zhou, and now the governor of Jizhou is vacant, not to mention the Jiliao general system that the emperor has set up, but the position has been vacant, he is the governor of Jizhou, which means that he has to grasp military and political affairs, but he has no experience in communicating with local officials at all.

With his status as a relative, others didn't talk to him well, and they didn't treat him seriously as a capable person, and more people felt that he relied on nepotism to get to power.

And the person who really recognizes his ability, and doesn't even treat him as a colt, is probably only Zhu Feng in the whole army.

But Zhu Feng ......

It's hard to put into words.

Cui Yuan said: "With my qualifications and my ability, it is difficult to be qualified for this errand, so I have already asked Your Majesty to reassign someone else." I also recommended you to Your Majesty. ”

Cui Yuan is telling the truth, he wants to go back to the capital now, he doesn't want his wife to be homesick, and it seems to be good to think about the carefree life before.

What is incompetent, no matter how great the achievement is for him, others will also say that he is a colt and relies on women to ascend to the throne, what's the point?

Cui Yuan himself is not the kind of person who sharpens his head to climb up, power is at most a concoction for him, with or without it, he can accept it.

Zhu Feng hurriedly said: "Brother Cui, don't laugh, I'm going back to the capital, Yanwutang still needs me, and I'm not going back to be idle." ”

Although Cui Yuan gave Zhu Feng face and didn't say anything, his eyes seemed to say, if you go back, you know in your heart that if you can change it, I'd rather go back to Yanwutang to be "busy".

"By the way, I also learned a piece of news, saying that Brother Zhang and Princess Yongkang are coming here soon." Zhu Feng hurriedly wanted to change the topic.

Because Zhu Feng was really afraid of being pitted by Cui Yuan, the last person left behind became him.

Cui Yuan was surprised: "Cai Guogong is coming?" And also...... The eldest princess? ”

Forget about Zhang Zhoulai, he still came with Princess Yongkang? What is the rationale for this? The point is, why didn't you know about this matter from the official documents of the imperial court, but from Zhu Feng's mouth? Is this a business or a private matter?

Zhu Feng said: "That's what I said, it seems that I came to reward the three armies, the eldest prince is coming, maybe he asked His Majesty." ”

Cui Yuan looked a little lost and said, "I don't know." ”

Zhu Feng smiled and comforted: "Maybe Her Royal Highness the eldest princess wants to surprise you, this matter is indeed not publicized, and Brother Zhang didn't tell me, I learned the news from the capital." ”

At this time, Cui Yuan couldn't help but look at Zhu Feng curiously, he seemed to be very curious where Zhu Feng came from so many news channels.

But then he understood.

Zhu Feng has been mixed in the Yanwutang for several years, not in vain, many generals who came out of the Yanwutang, even if these people are not top-level generals, but the middle level distributed in various armies has become the backbone of all parts of the frontier, and they are all actual troop leaders.

Usually Zhu Feng is giggling, and he doesn't think others have much respect for Zhu Feng, but it's not difficult to get news.

In addition, Zhu Feng and Zhang Zhou's friend, everyone in the world knows that he Zhu Feng and Zhang Zhou are brothers, and Zhu Feng has the big tree of Chengguo Mansion behind him, which is indeed not comparable to him Cui Yuan, a newly emerging upstart.

Cui Yuandao: "Cai Guogong is here, I don't know why? ”

Obviously, Cui Yuan was very worried that Zhang Zhou was here to be a supervisor, and he, the chief soldier who had not yet taken office, felt a lot of pressure.

Zhu Feng said with a smile: "I have learned some gossip about this, which is unknown to outsiders, if you want to hear it, I will tell you in detail." ”

Saying that, Zhu Feng sat down, didn't see anything outside, and said with a smile, "Brother Zhang is here to transfer troops to Liaodong." There are not only Mongolian Tartars, but also Jurchen Tartars, we have cleaned up the Mongolian Tartars, but the Jurchen Tartars have begun to make waves again in the past year. Brother Zhang is not there, and neither is the new uncle, and the Jurchen is now a little carried away. ”

Cui Yuan was obviously a little lonely about this, and asked, "Haven't all the Jurchens been cleaned up?" I also know that most of the Jurchens have moved south. ”

Zhu Feng said: "Tartars are Tartars, their habits are difficult to change, it is true that they move south, but their nature is bad, how can they engage in production with peace of mind?" In southern Liaoning and other places, they began to make trouble, and even occupied some cities and cottages, and some even retreated north on their own. ”

"Is that so?" Cui Yuan said, "Then you should kill a hundred policemen." ”

"It didn't work. If these Jurchens are all in a group, it will be easy to solve, but they themselves are full of mountains, this has nothing to do with that, and their internal turmoil is very serious, these people are not obedient, and they still want to use the Huairou policy before, but now they may have to be tougher, and they can't move to southern Liaoning, or they can be sent directly to Yunnan! ”

Zhu Feng looked very knowledgeable.

Cui Yuan asked: "According to what you mean, in the next step, Cai Guogong will lead the troops to level the Jurchen?" ”

Knowing that Zhang Zhou went to Liaodong through Yongping Mansion, Cui Yuan was somewhat relieved, at least he didn't have to face a strong boss like Zhang Zhou every day, which made it easy for him to show his timidity.

Zhu Feng said: "I don't think so." I heard that it may be someone who uses Tang Yin. That Tang Bohu, you can't underestimate him, he is Brother Zhang's classmate, and now he has never come back in North Korea. ”

"By the way, why hasn't he returned?" Cui Yuan: This will be like a political novice.

He couldn't understand a lot of things, no one had told him before, he didn't need to ask, and these things didn't have much to do with him.

Now that Zhu Feng said it, he naturally wants to ask about it.

is a person who is a general soldier, if he doesn't know all these things, he himself feels that he is too difficult to mix.

Zhu Feng said with a smile: "Tang Yin, this person, seems to be just a scholar, but he does a ruthless job, and he doesn't let it go at all, and he will serve the Korean monarchs and ministers in one pot, and it will become a big deal with just a few hundred people." He went to North Korea to transfer troops, but the North Koreans didn't want to help us fight the Jurchens, and only by letting Tang Yin go could we force them to send troops. ”

Cui Yuan shook his head and said, "In my estimation, even if Tang Shilang goes, North Korea may not give in, right?" No matter how many soldiers and horses they sent, it was not as effective as the thousands of soldiers and horses sent by the Ming Dynasty. ”

Zhu Feng said: "You don't understand this, it doesn't matter how many soldiers and horses North Korea sends, it doesn't matter if their soldiers and horses don't do anything, the point is to let them fight, and it's best to lose both." ”

"Oh."

Cui Yuandao, "So in the next step, Cai Guogong may send someone to clean up North Korea?" ”

"This can't be nonsense, North Korea is our vassal state in the end, how many years have been like this, that place is also a little disobedient, but no matter how you say it, it is generally obedient, if this kind of thing is known, it may not be thought that we have to rely on coercion on the vassal state, not Huairou."

Zhu Feng seems to care about the matter of face.

Cui Yuan nodded with a smile and said, "Listening to your words, I feel like the mouth is suddenly open." ”

Zhu Feng got up and returned with a smile: "Anyway, I will leave the matter here to you in the future, I will wait for Brother Zhang to come, and discuss the date with him to go back, speaking of which, I haven't seen him for a few days, and I miss it." Don't get me wrong, I think it's an honor to know him in my life. ”

Cui Yuan also stood up to send him off, and said with empathy when he heard the words: "Although Cai Guogong doesn't mention much to me, he is also my Bole, and I also feel that Sansheng is fortunate to know such a person." ”

"Each other, each other." Zhu Feng said, "Then we can also work together in the future." Let's help Brother Zhang do more things, and we can become a pillar of the court like him in the future. ”

Cui Yuan was stunned.

We have all led our troops to fight such a big victory now, and we have been entrusted with important tasks by the emperor, are we not considered pillars?

But thinking about what Zhang Zhou did would also make Cui Yuan feel a little powerless.

It's really more human than human......

……

……

Zhang Zhou was already on his way to Santun Camp.

Even if his destination is the port of Tianjin Wei, he still has to go to Santun Camp first, and if he is there to reward the three armies, it will seem that the imperial court attaches great importance to this, and at the same time, he will also go to meet with Zhu Feng and Cui Yuan to make the next arrangements.

Yongkang walked with him on the road, and he was only a team member, and Yongkang wanted to meet Zhang Zhou several times, but Zhang Zhou refused.

Until the boundary of Yongping Mansion, the team was still reorganized outside the post house on this day, and Yongkang insisted on coming to meet Zhang Zhou, and he was also polite to Sun Shangqi, who came to Zhang Zhou, so there was no conflict.

"Grandpa, the eldest princess is outside." Guo Ang came in and passed on to Zhang Zhou.

Guo Ang, as the envoy of Beizhen Fusi, walked with Zhang Zhou, and Sun Shangqi also came with him.

And Sun Shangqi did not stay in Beijing as the envoy of Beizhen Fusi, this position is currently vacant, or Guo Ang is still suspended.

Zhang Zhoudao: "Please." ”

Zhang Zhou didn't need to go out to greet him, just waited in the post house, and then saw Yongkang coming under the escort of several government soldiers.

"Mr. Zhang, why do you ask for a meeting again and again, but you can't do it? Shouldn't there be some things that should be made clear now? When you hear that you don't stop and leave after you arrive at the garrison, can't we just talk about it? ”

With Yongkang's temper, she doesn't want to suffer a loss, and she doesn't even want to talk to people like this.

The people in the world who can suppress her seem to not exist.

But she knew that she had to ask Zhang Zhou now, so that the words of this question were a little lacking in momentum, so she could only say it tactfully.

Zhang Zhou smiled and motioned to the chair next to her, probably asking her to sit down and talk.

Yongkang said: "Some people don't want to see it, and this palace can't ignore it." Leave when you're done. I just heard that the imperial brother asked the horse to stay in Jizhou as a general soldier, which is different from what the imperial brother said to me before. ”

Zhang Zhou shrugged his shoulders and said, "Your Royal Highness Princess, in the last battle, Cui Juma did win the battle, but that has already passed. ”

"Passed? What do you mean? Doesn't it count? Yongkang heard it, Zhang Zhou was planning to "repay the debt"?

Zhang Zhoudao: "Of course, the credit cannot be counted. Isn't there a next one? ”

"Next?"

Yongkang was about to blow up when he heard this, and said angrily, "After fighting one after another, as soon as I came back from Ningxia, I was sent to Jizhou, and the war in Jizhou has just ended, what errand do you plan to send to him?" Are you sincere in trying to toss him to death? ”

Zhang Zhoudao: "No, this time he may be needed to assist in the military affairs of Jiliao, pacify Liaodong, and further clean up the Jurchens." ”

"What do you mean?" Yongkang frowned.

Zhang Zhou took out a map and spread it out to show her in Yongkang's puzzled gaze.

Yongkang said: "I am a woman and I can't understand it." ”

Zhang Zhou smiled: "I thought there was nothing in the world that you didn't understand, the eldest princess." ”

Yongkang glared at Zhang Zhou fiercely, wanting to have a seizure, but he still held back.

Zhang Zhoudao: "The threat of the Jurchens has always been there, and the threat will become bigger and bigger in the future. Before they rise, completely eradicate the hidden dangers, the Jurchens have been cleaned up before, if the eldest princess cares, she should also know that Xinjian Bo and others have made achievements before. ”

"What does this have to do with my colt?" Yongkang obviously wants to protect her husband.

No matter what you say, you can't let your husband take any more risks.

ZHANG Zhoudao; "Cui Juma does not need to lead the troops to rush to the front line, but he may have to coordinate the deployment of troops and garrisons, etc., Shanhaiguan ...... The next step might be for him to keep guard. If all kinds of men and horses attack, they can probably mobilize 200,000 soldiers and horses, and he is only a part of it......"

"Two hundred thousand?"

"That's right, 200,000. Although the Jurchens are small, their distribution is very scattered, and the transfer of 200,000 soldiers and horses may not be able to cure it completely, but they just want to further clean up the situation. I'm here this time to complete this work together. (End of chapter)
