Chapter 313: Xie Lingyun's Plea for Help
After leaving the hall of the mansion, Xie Lingyun sat in the carriage and frowned.
Killing officials, this kind of thing was not a big deal before!
In the past, the officials of the official office saw that they were like their grandsons, for fear of annoying them.
But this time is not that time, now that the Dali Dynasty is in charge, if they are still the same as before, it will inevitably lead to endless troubles.
However, the question is how their Xie family can avoid being involved.
Some things can't be explained, and it's a question of whether people want to hear you explain them.
"Wait, park!"
Just as the carriage was about to arrive at the Xie family's mansion, Xie Lingyun suddenly shouted to stop the carriage.
"Master, is there something wrong?" The butler who was driving the car asked puzzled.
Xie Lingyun said in a deep voice: "Where did you say General Wusheng yesterday? ”
Seeing his solemn expression, the housekeeper hurriedly said: "It is said that General Wu Sheng was named the Dragon and Tiger General by the new dynasty, commanding the Third Corps, and was stationed on Kaye Island. ”
General Longhu is the official position of Dali Zheng's second-grade martial arts, and the main generals of the eight major armies and the four major water divisions are all dragon and tiger generals.
At present, Dali has implemented the separation of military and government, that is, the military is in charge of the military aircraft department, and the cabinet is responsible for political affairs.
Under the Military Aircraft Department, there are the Governor's Office of the Five Armies, the Eight Corps, the Four Naval Divisions and the Kyoto Forbidden Army.
The Eight Corps and the Four Naval Divisions all have their own garrisons, and at the same time, they are also responsible for some border garrisons and patrol tasks.
The Governor's Office of the Five Armed Forces was reduced to a logistics department, mainly responsible for training recruits, manufacturing armaments, etc.
The power to transfer troops is completely in the hands of the Military Aircraft Department, and the promotion, appointment, and dismissal of generals of various armies are also controlled by the Military Aircraft Department.
As for the military department under the cabinet, it is only responsible for the defenders of the state towns.
At the beginning, Qin Wei also wanted the Military Aircraft Department to have jurisdiction over the town defenders of the states, but the problem was that the town guards of the states had to be under the jurisdiction of the Governor's Office, and the Governor's Office was under the overall leadership of the Cabinet, which caused the town guards to be under the dual leadership of the Military Aircraft Department and the Cabinet.
Dual leadership is not a problem, the problem is that the town defenders undertake the task of guarding the cities in various places, and they have more dealings with local officials.
Letting the Military Aircraft Department have jurisdiction over the town guards in various localities undoubtedly gives the Military Aircraft Department the right to meddle in the local officials.
This was obviously not in line with Qin Wei's policy of separating the military from the government, so in the end he let the military department take charge of the town defenders.
"Go to Qingjiang City!" Xie Lingyun didn't hesitate and said directly.
"Now?"
"That's right, let's go!" Xie Lingyun urged.
Qingjiang City is not far from Minghua City, about more than fifty miles, if you take a carriage, you can reach it in an hour.
The reason why Xie Lingyun wanted to go to Qingjiang City was to meet Wu Sheng.
Speaking of which, he and Wu Sheng still have a little friendship, when Wu Sheng was not yet developed, he had a good relationship with Xie Lingyun's second brother, Xie Lingyun had seen Wusheng many times at that time, but Xie Lingyun at that time could not look down on Wu Sheng, and the friendship between the two was at most a nodding friend.
As for Xie Lingyun's second brother, he has been dead for decades, otherwise the relationship between the Xie family and Wu Sheng may be deeper.
……
Twilight.
Outside the city of Qingjiang.
Wu Sheng was sitting in the main tent, helplessly looking at the snow-clothed envoy in front of him.
"What are you doing here?"
The snow-clothed envoy looked at him and said with a flat expression: "Now you want to drive me away!" ”
"That's not what I meant!" Wu Sheng Road.
"What does that mean?" Snowcoats make the way.
Wu Sheng took a deep breath and said, "You are now the enshrinement of the Offering Courtyard, and you should follow the arrangement of the Offering Courtyard!" ”
The snow suit eased his cold face a lot.
"I've already asked Xiongba for instructions, as long as there are no other arrangements in the worship house, I can go to Kano Island."
When Wu Sheng heard this, his expression was relieved.
To be honest, he was still quite apprehensive during this time, for fear that Qin Wei would come to unload the mill and kill the donkey.
Although Qin Wei had made him the Dragon and Tiger General and put him in command of the Third Corps, he was very careful.
After all, for Da Li, he is just a person who has just been attached for a long time, and it is inevitable that some people in the court will be dissatisfied with him.
When the time comes, a villain will make trouble, and his situation will be extremely embarrassing.
But with Xiongba's approval, he thinks there should be no problem.
"That's good!"
He whispered.
The snow envoy walked to his side, gently arranged his clothes, and said softly: "Actually, you don't need to worry too much, Lord Xiongba said that although the Tianxia Association is gone, he will take care of the people of the previous Tianxia Society." ”
After the reconstruction of the Dali Dynasty, the Tianxia Association has been disbanded, whether it is the help of the Tianxia Society, or the Shenwu Army, or the army of the Sheng Dynasty has all been integrated into the Eight Corps.
Today's Xiongba is no longer the leader of the Tianxia Society, he is the dean of the Worship Academy.
"I know, but we're outsiders after all!" Wu Sheng said what he feared most.
He still hasn't integrated into Dali, which is normal, after all, he's only been in Dali for a few months.
"If you think like this, it will be even more uncomfortable, we are now a big person, we are His Majesty's courtiers, how can we be outsiders?" The snowcoat said with a smile.
Wu Sheng was stunned for a moment, and then laughed, "It's me who is too careful!" ”
It's no wonder that he thinks so much, it's really that he has suffered too much loss in the Luofu court before, and he always has some thoughts of staying away from the court in his heart.
Even if Da Li has replaced the Luofu Dynasty, his inner concept has not been reversed.
Just as the two were talking, there was a guard outside the camp tent who reported: "General Qiqi, Xie Lingyun, the head of the Xie family, is asking to see you outside the camp!" ”
When Wu Sheng heard this, his expression moved slightly.
"Xie Lingyun, why is he here?"
The snow-clothed envoy next to him showed a sneer, "The wealthy clan of Minghua City killed the prefect sent by the court!" ”
"What!" Wu Sheng's eyes widened, and he exclaimed, "Are they crazy?" ”
The snowcoat envoy whispered, "I don't know if they're crazy or not, but I know they're not far from destruction!" ”
Wu Sheng's eyes froze, "This matter has something to do with the Xie family?" ”
"I don't know!" Snowcoats make the way.
She had only heard about it and didn't know the specifics.
Now she is not the snow-clothed envoy of the Sheng Dynasty, she does not have a single soldier under her command, and she does not have the power to collect intelligence information, where will she know about the affairs of the Xie family.
"Shall I see him, then?" Wu Sheng asked.
"It's better not to see each other! This kind of thing is not something we can control, and besides, we don't need to meddle! The snowcoat said.
Wu Sheng bowed slightly, and said to the guards outside the tent: "Let him leave!" ”
……
Outside the camp gate.
Xie Lingyun looked at the gate of the barracks with a heavy face.
This camp is only a temporary camp, and the soldiers in the camp are all Wu Sheng's personal guards. Tomorrow Takemori will take a boat to Kano Island, and then this camp will be uprooted, so this camp looks very shabby.
Looking at the soldiers in the camp, Xie Lingyun was full of impatience.
He couldn't wait to see Wu Sheng now, and he didn't ask Wu Sheng to help him Xie Jia solve this crisis, but he needed Wu Sheng to show him a clear way.
There is no way, their Xie family and Dali have almost no intersection, and they can't find anyone to talk to Xiang, and the only one who has something to do with it is Wu Sheng.
However, he was destined to be disappointed, and when he heard the guard's reply, his heart twitched.
"Little brother, can you help the old man pass it on again!"
"No, just help the old man give this letter to General Wu Sheng!"
Xie Lingyun took out the prepared letter from his arms and said to the guards in a low voice.
It's really a low voice.
He is the head of the Xie family, and he is still a strong man in the Silent Realm, calling a little guard a little brother, if others hear this, they will definitely not believe it.
The guard looked at the letter in his hand, hesitated, but agreed.
It's just a letter, not a big deal.
Besides, no matter how you say it, this person in front of him is also a strong man in the Silent Realm, how dare he refuse, a small guard.
The guards took the letter and returned to Wu Sheng's camp again.
Inside the tent.
Wu Sheng looked at the contents of the letter and sighed helplessly.
"What did he write?" The snowcoat asked with some curiosity.
Wu Sheng shook his head slightly, "It's not Xie Lingyun who wrote it, this is Xie Lingxiao's relic." ”
If Xie Lingyun wrote it, no matter what he wrote, he wouldn't care, but Xie Lingxiao was his friend, and he received a lot of favors from Xie Lingxiao back then, if it wasn't for Xie Lingxiao to help him, he might not be able to wait for the day when he made his fortune.
This letter is just Xie Lingxiao's family letter, and it actually has nothing to do with Wu Sheng, but looking at Xie Lingxiao's handwriting, Wu Sheng still can't forget it.
Wu Sheng is a person who values feelings, otherwise he would not have been raising the descendants of those relatives who died for him.
"If it weren't for Brother Lingxiao, we might not know each other!" Wu Sheng looked at the snow-clothed envoy and said.
Xueyi was slightly stunned, and then said with a smile: "Do whatever you want, I support you!" ”
Wu Sheng thought about it, wrote two letters on his desk, and handed them to the guards.
Xie Lingxiao is a member of the Xie family, although he is dead, the kindness owed by Wu Sheng must be counted on the Xie family.
Outside the camp, Xie Lingyun received two letters, and his heart suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Thank you, little brother!" He thanked the guards who had delivered the letter before getting into the carriage and leaving.
When the carriage was far away, Xie Lingyun opened the two letters.
One of them was written to him, and Wu Sheng gave him two suggestions, if the Xie family was involved in the killing of the official, then directly prepare for the aftermath, if the Xie family was not involved, then immediately go to Kyoto to ask for guilt!
The second letter was written by Wu Sheng to Mo Tianyu, he was most familiar with Mo Tianyu, before in Beiyuan Island, the two got along very well, if he wanted to help the Xie family, he could only ask Mo Tianyu for help.
After reading the letter, Xie Lingyun thought about it and immediately instructed the housekeeper: "Go to Kyoto!" ”
"Master, it's getting late now, why don't you find a place to rest first!" The butler asked.
"No need, we need to go to Kyoto as soon as possible!" Xie Lingyun said.
……
Inside the Imperial City Shengtian Palace.
Qin Wei looked at the letter in his hand, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"I know about this, you can decide the rest!"
He said to Shen Wansan in front of him.
This letter came from Wang Yixian, Wang Yixian, the old fox, still didn't give up and wanted to drag Dali into the water, but he probably knew that Qin Wei would not interfere in the affairs of the spiritual sea at this time, so he put his mind on the trade between the two sides.
In the past, the trade between the two sides was that Dali took advantage of Kenshin Island, but now Dali has occupied the land of the four islands, and the development of various industries is predictable.
Therefore, Wang Yixian hoped that Dali could support them in terms of resources and materials to Jianxin Island.
Qin Wei naturally won't refuse this, anyway, it's a money-making business, no matter how big glass is, he won't lose money.
"Price?" Shen Wansan asked softly.
Qin Wei smiled, "We don't trade at a loss. ”
"Wechen understands!" Shen Wansan said with a smile.
After that, Shen Wansan retired.
"Anything else?" Qin Wei looked at Xiao Shunzi next to him.
Xiao Shunzi hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, the Hundred Star Dynasty has sent someone to submit the credentials to Honglu Temple, and they will send a division to come in half a month!" ”
"Oh! The Hundred Stars Dynasty would actually send an embassy! Qin Wei was a little surprised.
Xiao Shunzi said: "Luo Wang has already confirmed, it is indeed a person from the Hundred Star Dynasty." ”
"Do you know who the chief envoy of the mission is?" Qin Wei asked.
"It's not clear yet, but the net is already investigating!" Xiao Shunzi said.
Qin Wei nodded and said, "Then let the Honglu Temple and the Ministry of Rites prepare for the reception, this is the first time we have dealt with the Hundred Star Dynasty, and the etiquette can be grander." ”
"In addition, send a message to Zhao Gao, and ask him to find out the reason why the Hundred Star Dynasty sent the mission as soon as possible."
"Whoa!" Xiao Shunzi answered.
