Scattered backwards.

Yu Qian went to the British Mansion.

Zhang Fu is the commander, and he has an unshirkable responsibility for the emperor to be captured, even if the court does not pursue it for the time being, it will not let him enter the court to take charge of the army.

Having said that, in the first place, the Guogong could not enter the court to participate in politics and hold military power.

Zhang Funeng is like this, mainly because Zhu Qizhen was too young when he ascended the throne, and with the acquiescence of Zhu Zhanji and the Empress Dowager Zhang, he was able to take charge of the army and participate in politics, and others did not have this treatment.

Zhang Fu is a lot old, and his body is still quite strong, but after this incident, he almost exhausted his spirit.

In just a few days, it was as if the man had aged ten years again, and he was about to die.

"Don't blame yourself too much." Yu Qian persuaded, "If something like this happens, it's not your responsibility alone, you've done a good enough." ”

Seeing that Zhang Fu was still unmoved, Yu Qian sighed: "Alas... Now that the Tatars have held the emperor hostage, they must be dissatisfied, and the resumption of war is almost certain, and the prince must take care of his body!

Daming needs you to preside over the overall situation. ”

Zhang Fu shook his head with a wry smile: "I am a sinner, the court is already magnanimous for not punishing crimes, how can it be used again, if such a crime is committed, it will not be affected, where is the dignity of the court?" ”

Yu Qian froze for a moment and fell silent.

"So, it's up to you to top it in the future." Zhang Fu said, "You are the secretary of the military department, and now your weight in the court is also very important, except for you, no one can stand up." ”

Yu Qian's face was heavy, and he asked again: "Guogong, haven't you really seen Mr. Li?" ”

"Nope." Zhang Fu shook his head, "But I've heard Shi Heng say that he did go to the battlefield, but as soon as he entered the battlefield, he killed the enemy, and then... Alas!

Speaking of which, if he hadn't held Shi Heng hostage with the banner of the king's order this time and rushed to our aid in time, the main force of the Ming army would probably have been wiped out. ”

Hearing this, Yu Qian couldn't help but redden.

He is immortal, he could have lived a comfortable life, did not ask about the world, and had no quarrel with the world, but he still came back to wade into this troubled water.

He has managed to put things in order, and the powerful groups represented by civilian interests have been forcibly suppressed, and everything is developing in a good direction, but now, ...... Yu Qian was depressed in his heart.

Yu Qian secretly made up his mind that he would never let the good situation be buried like this.

"Guogong, the number of casualties between the enemy and us has not yet been delivered to Jingshi, you are a person who has experienced it firsthand, how many are there?" Yu Qian asked.

Zhang Fu said: "At first, the Tatars rushed the pass, and their casualties were much greater than those of the Ming army, but later the pass was broken, and our first wave of reinforcements also arrived, so the damage was greater than that of the Tatars, but it was not much bigger.

Then the emperor and I arrived with the main army, and the Tatars withdrew, and then the main force of the Ming army was counterattacked by the Tatars......"

After thinking about it, Zhang Fu said: "In the end, we have to calculate that our casualties are about 50,000, and the loss of Tatars is nearly 30,000, but it is we who clean up the battlefield, and the losses of Tatars are all killed. ”

Yu Qian nodded lightly, the matter was not as serious as imagined, and the Tatars were not completely victorious.

"By the way, I've been at home these days, what's going on with the court?" Zhang Fu asked, "Has the border guard been strengthened?" ”

"The imperial court has issued an order from the mountain. East, River. Nan, Yunnan, Guizhou, and Bashu dispatched some troops to Liaodong, Datong, Xuanfu and other places, but this took time. Yu Qian said tiredly, "The war in Luchuan is still going on, and I am afraid that the withdrawal of troops at this time will be wasted......

After a pause, he frowned and said: "The most lacking thing at the moment is time, it will take at least two or three months to complete the entire deployment, and Tatar should not give us such a long time to prepare." ”

Zhang Fu nodded slowly: "Indeed, the most important thing at present is to stabilize the Tatars first, but their losses this time are not small, plus they have held the emperor hostage, and if they have no fear, they may not directly attack the Ming Dynasty, blackmailing the Ming Dynasty is the best choice." ”

"The prince is wise." Yu Qian said, "The Tatar envoys have already entered the city, and it is estimated that they will arrive soon." ”

"Oh?" Zhang Fu was taken aback, "Who receives?" ”

Yu Qian pointed at himself.

Zhang Fu's nervous expression relaxed slightly, and said: "This is a technical job, not only to ensure the interests of the Ming Dynasty, but also not to let them have the psychology of dying, the degree of which must be well controlled, you ...... Have faith? ”

"That's what happened, and if you don't have it, you have to have it." Yu Qian said.

"What if you can't do both?"

Yu Qian was silent for a while, "Zi said: The people are the most important, the society is secondary, and the monarch is light." ”

"Hmm."

…

After talking for a while, Yu Qian said goodbye to the British duke, and as soon as he went out, he met Wang Wenqing, the director of the Ministry of Rites, who came in a hurry.

"Yu Shangshu, the officials are polite." Wang Wenqing arched his hand and hurriedly said: "Yu Shangshu, the Tatar envoy has arrived, and he is now in the host and guest department, you go quickly, don't let people wait in a hurry." ”

When Yu Qian heard him say this, he was not in a hurry.

Said lightly: "Let them go to the yamen of the military department and wait." ”

"Huh?" Wang Wenqing was dumbfounded, "Lord Yu, the envoys who receive them are all in the Ministry of Rites, and they go to the Ministry of War... Didn't you receive such a reception?

Besides, it's not long before dinner, and the chef ......"

"What kind of fine diet, they also deserve it?" Yu Qian snorted coldly: "That's the place to receive the envoys of the Ming vassal states, not a Tatar restaurant, go, let them go to the Yamen of the Ministry of War." ”

"Yu Shangshu ......"

Yu Qian interrupted: "Either do what the official says, or you go to the reception, choose one." ”

Wang Wenqing dared to take this hot potato, and said busily: "Yes, the next official will arrange it." ”

Yu Qian looked at Wang Wenqing's back and sighed: "It's not a business that is rushing!" ”

After that, he got into the sedan chair.

"Go home!"

…

When he got home, Yu Qian changed out of his official robe, put on his usual clothes when he was at home, and took out high-quality forage for a donkey, not in a hurry at all.

What Daming needs most now is time, fly legs are also meat, it can drag on for a while, who is in a hurry, who is in a hurry.

The donkey and Yu Qian are also familiar with each other, eating grass comfortably, and baring their teeth at Yu Qian from time to time.

Yu Qian stroked its smooth hair and sighed, "You may have to stay here forever." ”

After a while, Yu Mian stepped forward and said, "Father, there are guests coming." ”

"Got it," Yu Qian didn't raise his head, "tell them that I'll go to the yamen right away." ”

"Yes, father."

Yu Qian stayed for another half an hour, and did not leave the house until noon.

…

"What time is it, is this your Ming hospitality?" The rugged man's hungry chest was pressed against his back, and he was so angry that he couldn't do it.

I thought that the upper and lower lips touched, but the result was good, first I waited for half an hour in the main and guest division, and then I was told to come to the yamen of the military department.

This sat for most of the hour, and the tea was not less, but the imaginary hard dishes were not eaten in a bite, and the meals were all over, and no one had even seen them.

"What a heavenly kingdom, a state of etiquette, is pure bullshit."

"I'm very hospitable, but it also depends on the object." Yu Qian walked slowly, "For the envoys of the vassal states who are obedient and pure, the Ming Dynasty naturally treats them with kindness, but for the unruly and capricious villains...... Hehe. ”

The rugged man got up and said, "Who are you?" ”

The Tatar translation was online, and the translation was given to Yu Qian.

Yu Qian smiled: "This official is the secretary of the Ming Military Department, I don't know why the envoy came?" ”

The rugged man listened to the translated words, looked at Yu Qian mockingly, and said with a strange smile:

"It's nothing, your emperor of the Ming Dynasty is too difficult to serve, our Tatar is a small tribe, we can't afford to support him, let's prepare three million taels of silver first."

He smiled evilly: "Don't worry, we will ensure that all this money will be used on your emperor, hehe...... You don't want the Ming Emperor to suffer, do you? ”

Yu Qian was unmoved, and said lightly: "In this case, then you might as well send the emperor back, isn't this just right to reduce your burden?" ”

The translator's face changed, but he still told the rough man the truth.

When the rugged man heard this, he became angry and threatened: "If you don't give money, then your emperor can only starve and live like a refugee." ”

Yu Qian was angry in his heart, but it was not easy to attack, in all fairness, as a courtier, he didn't want to make Zhu Qizhen sad.

"We can talk about money, but you have to send the emperor back first." Yu Qian assured, "I will never lose my trust in others. ”

The rugged man laughed after hearing this, who would give up a long-term meal ticket and make a hammer deal?

"Let's talk about the money first, and we'll consider the price when it's in place." He smiled and said, "You don't lose your trust, but you have to show sincerity first, don't you?" ”

When Yu Qian heard this, he knew that he couldn't talk about it.

However, this was also within his expectations, so he said: "I'll tell you the truth, return the emperor as soon as possible, you can still make a profit, if you don't send it...... You don't have a penny. ”

"Why don't I believe it?"

"In that case, there's no need to talk about it." Yu Qian waved his hand and said impatiently: "Go back, go back." ”

Tatar: (⊙_⊙) ?

Isn't this script right?

The rugged man looked inward: "Do you still want the emperor?" ”
