Chapter 233: My job
After some spiritual "baptism", Gai Jiayun sent Fang Chongyong out of the Chinese army camp of the Lintao Army in a panic, and he was secretly glad in his heart that he didn't rush too far when he stood up, and now he can still come back.
If he had belittled this acting envoy in the first place, the consequences today would have been unimaginable.
This Fang Yanei is young, but he is already scheming, his wrists are active, and he advances and retreats in a certain way. It's hard to imagine what heights he will be able to reach in the future.
At this moment, Gai Jiayun was convinced, only to feel that the other party was looking up to the mountains.
He has seen a lot of situations where he oppresses people with power, but he doesn't have many goods in his hands, and he can still subdue people, but Gai Jiayun has also seen it for the first time.
What resources does Fang Chongyong have in his hands?
In fact, there was nothing, it was just a letter of appointment from the Son of Heaven, and he was responsible for recruiting the elite of the Longyou Army into the newly established forbidden army.
This is just a tiger skin, and the power is not as great as outsiders imagined, the key is to see how Fang Chongyong uses it.
If the matter of recruiting brave and strong soldiers to enter the Silver Spear Filial Piety Festival is resisted by the commanders of the various armies on the right side of Longyou, causing too many contradictions and waves, then the Son of Heaven of Chang'an may also withdraw the letter of appointment. The armies under the command of Longyou Jiedu are the first line against Tubo, and there is no joke.
Relatively speaking, there are many solutions to the recruitment of soldiers of the Silver Spear Filial Piety Army, such as kicking Fang Chongyong to Shuofang or Hedong to recruit troops.
Taking 10,000 steps back, the Son of Heaven of Chang'an is the soldier who looks at Longyou. Wouldn't sending another person to recruit troops also achieve the goal?
It doesn't necessarily need to be done by Fang Chongyong himself.
Therefore, just now Fang Chongyong threatened him with the Silver Gun Xiaojie Army, and did not publicize his identity in front of outsiders, which can only show that Fang Chongyong is a smart person who is thoughtful and good at using tricks.
There is a big killing weapon in his hand, but he does not take it out easily, and he "kills" when he draws his sword, and the deterrent power is full. Asking himself, Gai Jiayun felt that he was far from being able to do this.
If he were Fang Chongyong, if he had the appointment letter given by the emperor in his hand, the black cauldron of Longyou's arrears of military salaries would not be picked up at all! Gai Jiayun believed that with the power in his hands, it would not be difficult for Fang Chongyong to get rid of the black cauldron.
But this Fang Yanei calmly took the pot and did things according to his own ideas. Gai Jiayun didn't know how Fang Chongyong was going to solve the matter of arrears of Longyou's military salaries, but he knew that he would definitely not follow the usual path.
"The afterlife is terrifying."
At the gate of the camp of the Lintao Army, Gai Jiayun looked at the back of Fang Chongyong and his party leaving, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
He originally thought that he was the envoy of the Lintao army, and the Lintao army did not make trouble or eat empty salaries, so he should have been invincible and invulnerable.
I didn't expect Fang Chongyong to get a "letter of recommendation" written by Du Hope! It's going to kill you!
According to the unspoken rules of officialdom in the Kaiyuan Tianbao period, the recommendation letter of the outgoing Jiedu envoy is very powerful, and it can often influence the decision-making of the imperial court.
Fang Chongyong was only the acting envoy of the festival, and the court didn't know if he was suitable for the festival, not to mention that it was only suddenly appointed by the emperor of Chang'an. Therefore, Fang Chongyong really wants to get out, it is not difficult, it will just make others look down.
Du Hope's letter of recommendation bluntly said that Gai Jiayun was very suitable to take over the position of Jiedu envoy, and if Fang Chongyong also wrote back to Chang'an, he explained the situation to Li Longji, saying that Gai Jiayun was more suitable to be the Jiedu envoy.
With a two-pronged approach, how will the imperial court choose, in fact, there is no need to think about it at all, it is logical for Gai Jiayun to be officially appointed as the envoy of Longyou Jiedu.
Gai Jiayun had already guessed that Du Hope was not in a coma at all, this old coin should have reached some kind of deal with Fang Chongyong, and now the golden cicada has come out of its shell and returned to Chang'an! He suddenly had a question in his heart: So many people didn't see that Du Hope was pretending to be sick, why did Fang Chongyong notice it as soon as he came to Longyou?
Or did everyone see it (not including himself), but everyone had their own concerns and remained silent by default?
Thinking of this, Gai Jiayun was so frightened that his back was full of cold sweat!
Longyou seems to be calm, but in fact, because of the Anrenjun's troubles, it has caused a series of troubles, so that Longyou Jiedu makes Du Hope feel that he can't cover it.
Fang Chongyong, a young man under the age of twenty, dared to take over the plate like this, is this the so-called "art master bold"?
Gai Jiayun had palpitations, and secretly congratulated himself that he had completely knelt down just now without any reservations.
It's better to be a dog, it's too tiring to be a person, you will be plotted at any time, and even be killed inexplicably, and you don't know who is behind you.
No one is covered, and it's really insecure.
Eating people in the power arena without spitting out bones is much more dangerous than fighting in the battle array!
Gai Jiayun decided to hug Fang Chongyong's thigh tightly for the time being, and as for the longer things in the future, then let's talk about it in the future.
……
Accepting Gai Jiayun for his own use is the second step of Fang Chongyong's integration of the military and political affairs of Longyou, of course, the first step is to take over the staff team and mess left by Du Hope, as well as the recommendation letter of Gai Jiayun's top pot, in exchange for Du Hope to get out of Longyou.
Both sides take what they need.
Fang Chongyong has never forgotten what his job is, strictly abiding by the rules and not stepping on the red line.
He has the duty of supervising the imperial history, and his job is to picket local illegality, and of course eating empty pay is also one of the picketing contents.
He is the military envoy of the Silver Spear Filial Piety Army, and is responsible for selecting the brave and strong from the army on the right side of Long.
He was also the military envoy of Longyou and Hexi, and he had to check whether the local generals had two hearts, whether they had colluded with the Tibetans, and whether anyone wanted to rebel.
As for the acting festival or something, it was the result of Brother Ji's "unexpected", and it was not his own job. So Fang Chongyong thought very clearly, what he wanted to do and what not to do.
The means serve the ends.
As for those things like secretly developing forces and preparing to take advantage of the chaos after the Anshi Rebellion in the future, Fang Chongyong didn't think about it at all. In his opinion, to think about this kind of thing now is pure death.
It's not possible, it's not necessary, it's dangerous.
In fact, no one in the "workplace" is truly blind. No matter how well a person hides it, whether he is really doing things or really digging holes, outsiders can see it at a glance.
A certain person is just an employee, but he doesn't think about working hard in the company, and thinks about hollowing out the foundation of the company all day long, planning to start from scratch and become a big boss himself. This gesture is obvious to the eyes of superiors and colleagues, as conspicuous as a light bulb suddenly turning on in a dark room.
The people around this person gathered, interacted, and were willing to accept him must also be a group of people who share the same idea as him. This is the so-called "things gather like and people divide into groups".
And those who don't want to leave the company and just want to do a good job to get promotion opportunities will consciously stay away from this group of people, so as not to be dragged down by them. This is still the case that the boss of the company is blind and stupid, in fact, many times this kind of careerist has just taken two steps and then walks away.
In terms of professional ethics, eating the food of the court has to do the affairs of the court. Eating the contents of the pot, but always ready to smash the pot, this kind of person will be spurned wherever he goes. Fang Chongyong is an official, he has to do something, and he can't let go of his own work.
From the source of power, Fang Chongyong knew that his power was given by Brother Ji, so it was only natural for Brother Ji to do things. Of course, he will still find a way to push off this kind of errand that purely harms the people.
Born as a human being, with its own shackles.
Although Fang Chongyong had a soul in his body that came from a thousand years later, he still didn't feel the so-called freedom, and he didn't jump out of the stone.
At this time, the night was already dark, but Fang Chongyong still did not rest, and was still writing a letter to Ji Ge in the bedroom.
He wrote down the miscellaneous affairs in the Longyou area, such as empty salaries, arrears of military salaries, and the people of Tubo who were ready to move, and planned to send people back to Chang'an tomorrow by horse.
Asking for instructions early and reporting late is just the norm for workers, and now Fang Chongyong is used to this kind of life as a Tang bureaucrat.
"Would you like to take a look?"
After the letter was written, Fang Chongyong found that Pei Xiu, who was sitting on the opposite side of the table, had been looking at him, so he handed the stack of letter paper in his hand to the other party.
"Ah Lang is really holding a grudge."
Pei Xiu sighed, slightly unhappy in her heart.
She was indeed sent to "protect" Fang Chongyong, but now that both of them are "protected" to the same bed, this layer of surveillance has lost its meaning, what are you mentioning it for!
Pei Xiu reluctantly took the letter paper, read it at a glance and read ten lines, and was suddenly frightened.
She hurriedly returned it to Fang Chongyong, took a deep breath, and tried to calm her mood. Pei Xiu then smiled wryly: "It turns out that what Ah Lang said is true, I thought you were polite that day, and you are too sincere." ”
That day, Fang Chongyong said that he would send someone to send her to Didao County, and then let her return to Chang'an alone. Pei Xiu also thought that the other party was disgusted with himself and was too much of an obstacle.
I didn't expect that it was really dangerous for Longyou!
Pei Xiu felt a warm current flowing through his heart, stood up and sat next to Fang Chongyong, and whispered: "I won't leave, I'll go wherever I go." ”
"Write a letter to your father, and tell him about us, lest he be afraid."
Fang Chongyong held Pei Xiu's calloused little hand and said.
"This ...... Is that okay? ”
Pei Xiu asked suspiciously, suddenly a little ashamed, lowered his head and stopped talking.
At the beginning, she was drugged by two women from Fang Chongyong's family, but she couldn't resist, and she could only consider herself unlucky if something happened.
When she was hugged by Fang Chongyong two days ago, Pei Xiu could definitely resist, but she didn't, so she couldn't complain about others.
She can't tell her father Pei Min that she is a junior for Fang Chongyong, but she is actually enjoying it, right?
"Write, I don't like to do those dirty things, there's nothing I can't say."
Fang Chongyong said softly, already holding Pei Xiu in his arms.
"Got it, I'll write it and send someone to Youzhou."
Pei Xiu nodded slightly and said.
Then she picked up the pen and wrote a letter to Pei Min, not writing how she got involved with Fang Chongyong, but she wrote the results and her mood clearly. Pei Xiu calmly handed the letter to Fang Chongyong and said, "Ah Lang, can you take a look?" ”
"I don't need to look at it, it's a private message from a daughter to her father."
Fang Chongyong waved his hand and said.
"Alas!"
Pei Xiu sighed faintly, put her hands around Fang Chongyong's neck and offered a fragrant kiss.
Although it's not the same as the beautiful boy in his fantasy, it's ...... Actually, it's pretty good.
Such a strange thought flashed through Pei Xiu's mind, and after a while, the desire to burn her body to ashes made her brain go blank, allowing Fang Chongyong to do whatever she wanted to herself, and she couldn't resist the slightest.
……
"Fang Jieshuai, Fang Jieshuai? Are we going to enter the Heyuan Army camp now? ”
Seeing Fang Chongyong stagnating in front of the gate of the Heyuan Army garrison, Gai Jiayun leaned over and asked in a low voice.
"No need, it's rare to wait for the king here."
Fang Chongyong said calmly. Just now, his mind was full of Pei Xiu's fair and lovely body on the bed, and he was completely distracted.
Yesterday, in order to let Pei Xiu write a letter to Pei Min willingly, Fang Chongyong used all the "means", and tried his best to please him when he had sex. Not only did they light torches in the bedroom to make love, but they also moved the dresser to the bedside, so that Pei Xiu could see her sultry posture during sex from the bronze mirror.
Under Fang Chongyong's deliberate flattery, the two of them were so excited that they were about to collapse last night! Especially Pei Xiu, when she woke up in the morning, she looked at Fang Chongyong, and her eyes were so soft that they were dripping.
Of course, Fang Chongyong would do this, to some extent, not entirely to enjoy the pleasure of sex, but to Pei Xiu's father Pei Min and Pei's network.
The method of pushing the girl is not glorious, but it is not excessive, and in general, it did not force Pei Xiu, but Fang Chongyong broke the rules he had set for himself before.
In the past, Fang Chongyong felt that his women should be in love with him, and they could abide by their duties with each other, just like a contract. Since it is a contract, it also requires that men should not mess around outside.
Now, Fang's view is more realistic. Pei Xiu and her family background can be used, useful, and easy to use, and this woman doesn't make him feel disgusted, and she is being sent to her mouth again.
So this Pei Xiu must be won, even if it violates his previous principles. It's more of a soul sale.
After all, in order to adapt to this era, I have to make compromises!
Fang Chongyong couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
When he was thinking wildly, the king of the Heyuan army took a group of generals out of the camp, and as soon as they met, everyone saluted Fang Chongyong, who had already dismounted: "Please enter the camp!" ”
Wang rarely glanced at Gai Jiayun quietly, and then looked at the hundreds of Lintao soldiers behind him. These soldiers look at their outfits, each of them has a feather stuck in their helmet, this is a special unit belonging to the Lintao Army to guard the Longyou Jiedu Mansion, and they will not leave easily.
What are they coming to the Heyuan Army camp this time?
It was rare for the king to prevent these troops from entering the camp, because the other party's status was similar to that of the "military police", and he was specifically responsible for enforcing the law in the Longyou army. Gai Jiayun is also the acting military envoy of the Lintao Army, responsible for commanding these people. He followed behind Fang Chongyong, and it seemed that he could make sense.
It's just that the long-term caution has made Wang rarely nervous. Look at this posture, it's not good!
After entering the commander's tent in the Heyuan Army camp, Fang Chongyong sat on the main seat and glanced at the secretary beside him. Immediately, the secretary in charge spread out the account book in his hand and shouted at Wang Tianyuan and other generals of the Heyuan Army: "Roll call!" ”
"Roll call" is only two words, but these are the two words that Wang Rare and others don't want to hear!
"Fang Jieshuai, there are more than 10,000 soldiers in the Heyuan Army, when did you go to the roll call one by one? You can't just shout a name and let a soldier in, right? ”
Wang said with an embarrassed face. Seeing that Fang Chongyong didn't speak, he emphasized again: "Fang Jieshuai, there are so many people in the Heyuan Army, if one person comes in after calling a name, then he can't finish it for three days." ”
In fact, it takes a long time to take a roll call, the key is that this kind of method will cause a big thing!
The Heyuan Army was not fully staffed, but was paid empty salaries.
There are some people in the roster, who do not correspond to the actual soldiers, and only exist in the account books. Fang Chongyong was in front of the public, and he named them one by one in the handsome tent, isn't this asking for people's lives!
"General Gai, let your troops block the camp gates of the battalions of the Heyuan Army. No one was allowed to enter or leave the camp except for those who had to transport supplies, regardless of rank.
Violators will be punished as treason. ”
Fang Chongyong said to Gai Jiayun.
"Order! That's it! ”
Gai Jiayun clasped his hands into fists and saluted, and then turned around and left with a group of personal soldiers around him.
"What are you doing in a daze, roll call!"
Fang Chongyong impatiently instructed the secretary beside him.
Alas, it is not easy to update now, and this state will continue for a long time.
