Beiyang new warlord

"Vice-general Dongjiang Tieyi, who is under the command of the lowly-ranked general, praises Song Kangnian, and pays homage to the Shoufu University scholar!"

"You Dongjiang did a good job!"

This Song Xiance had just signed up, but Wen Tiren had a crackling meal and scolded him all over his face.

"Food bucket! Pig! A vulgar person, not a good-for-nothing waste! What a troubled court! This kind of deceitful Japanese tribute, without knowing it, handed it to the court, provoking Long Yan's fury! Can Mao Wenlong bear it?"

How much the Emperor Chongzhen held grudges. In this case, Wu Mengyan, who was in charge of the reception, would definitely not end well. However, Dongjiang, who sent people here, must also be implicated. However, the imperial court is very cautious in punishing warriors now. Most generals have a high status, at most cut their posts and fine their salaries, and if they are more ruthless, they will be transferred to spend with thieves when they have the opportunity. Unlike literati, they will directly lose their posts and exile or even die.

The low status of the warriors is not without benefits. Not many civil officials are willing to surrender their status to fight with them to the end. It is much easier to fish for Dongjiang than to fish for Wu Mengyan. Angry!On the other hand, he is also exaggerating the facts to sell Dongjiang a favor!

After all, the name of Mao Jue's rebellion and his reputation of being good at fighting in Liaodong Shuangxing are both famous in Daming. God knows, one day, he or his confidants will have to supervise the teachers and suppress the bandits. The bosses also try their best to build a good relationship with these feudal towns.

While Song Xiance was still in a daze, Wen Tiren, who had been scolding for a long time, finally raised a board, but it fell gently.

"You take the things back. For the Dongjiang matter, the old man will find a way to mediate on his behalf, but go back and let your deputy general take care of things in the future! Go down!"

Song Xiance was a little dumbfounded, I didn't say a word! After being scolded for a while, I wanted to send me out?How about that?

Regardless of the rules and irregularities, Wen Tiren on this side held up the teacup, and he simply kowtowed on the other side.

"Master Shoufu, my general, I would like to implore Shoufu to push the imperial court to send troops to the Wa country!"

噗

Chapter 265. Turning hands into clouds and hands into rain

Song Xiance deserved his bad luck today, just after he got back into the dog hole, this mouthful of hot tea was sprayed on his forehead again, the hot guy grinned and didn't dare to move.

Looking at his big-headed son in astonishment, Wen Tiren asked in astonishment after being stunned for a while.

"Your family's general, but who do you have enmity with?"

"Looking back, Master Fu, my general has no quarrels with the world, and has no grudges with anyone!"

"Then why did he promote this matter and send troops to Japan?"

These days, a general would not want to go to war, let alone travel thousands of miles to conquer the country of Japan. The old guy squinted his eyes vigilantly, sat back on the grand master's chair, and stared at Song Xiance's big head.

Of course it is to make a fortune! Robbing money and grabbing food and grabbing girls! But you can’t tell Wen Tiren about this. Before coming here, Dongjiang has already thought a lot about the rhetoric of lobbying the court officials. Here, Song Xiance immediately made a bitter one face, said Yibai.

"Master Shoufu, if you send troops to the Wa Kingdom and don't mobilize Jiangnan and Zhoushan, will Dongjiang be second to none?"

"Of course!"

"Once the Japanese army is dispatched, doesn't Dongjiang need to cooperate with Liaodong Town to attack Jin Jiannu?"

In a word, the old fox Wen Tiren figured it out.He is a scholar of Shoufu University. What was the result of the battle of Daling River? The imperial military department had a piece of news, but what he inquired about was another version. Zu Dashou, who made the first victory in this battle, did nothing. He broke out alone, and he risked his life, but there was no reward. At the beginning, he kept muttering that the imperial court used such people, and sooner or later it would make people feel cold, and this Dongjiang came to him.

He was looking for an excuse to withdraw himself from the battle with Jianu.

Not only that, in the past two years, the rogue bandits Zhenglie have all come to Hebei, and the military department of the imperial court has been constantly planning to transfer soldiers from outside the pass to fight the thieves in the pass. This is a thankless job. Dongjiang, as a crusade army, went to war against the Japanese country, and the matter of mobilizing troops naturally had nothing to do with Mao Jue.

However, is Wa country so easy to fight?In the Wanli Korean War, the imperial court dispatched more than 17 troops twice, costing 3000 million taels of salary. Zhang Juzheng’s accumulated wealth was almost completely wiped out by this war. Dare to stab that hornet's nest?

Mao Jue chose Song Xiance because he was too good at fooling people. In other words, he was a master at reading people's hearts. Seeing Wen Tiren's expression, he immediately guessed what he was thinking, and said with a smile.

"Shoufu-sama, seeing how famous the Toyotomi family is, it has long been in ruins. As early as more than ten years ago, the Tokugawa family succeeded in rebelling and almost wiped out the entire family. When I was a child, I only occasionally picked up such a dilapidated house!"

"There is no need to go to war at all, as long as he occupies two broken islands outside the Japanese sea, he will be satisfied, and the sea is dangerous. That adult is willing to go there to supervise the battle. The military achievements are not just written casually. By the way, that Dongjiang town has been in distress for a long time. , but also reward the imperial court with silver!"

Seeming to be a little embarrassed, Song Datou nodded with a sly look on his brain.

Not to mention, this remark really made Old Fox Wen admire him, this Dongjiang fool is not without brains, on the contrary, he is a fine person!Seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages, this kid thinks smarter than his father Mao Wenlong, and he is brave enough to cheat the court to the court!

But this kid sent someone to ask him for help, and he even told him that he wanted to be a mad dog that would bring trouble to his master under his Wen Tiren name. Wen Tiren didn't want it, but this loyal dog could bring back gold , but he never refused, seeing Song Xiance laughing with him, the number one treacherous minister in the Chongzhen Dynasty couldn't help squinting his old eyes, and after a long while, he hummed in an official accent.

"It's bitter cold in eastern Liaodong, and the court has dealt with it unfairly. I have heard a little about the truth, but as a courtier, it is my duty to be loyal to His Majesty!"

"Master Shoufu taught you a lesson very well!"

After this matter is done, even if you say you are Mao Wenlong's father, Mao Jue's big cousin, Song Xiance is still nodding cheerfully, especially the two words, which already imply a lot of things, listen Seeing that this guy is so good, the old treacherous official Wen also showed a little joy, smiled and waved.

"The old man is tired, you go down!"

"Honestly obey orders."

In the end, Wen Tiren didn't give any specific words, but before coming, Uncle Wen, who had done countless things in the capital, had already made it clear that this group of literati had this problem. If I talk to you, then the matter is nine out of ten, and I didn't ask in detail. This Song Xiance just saluted, turned around and left.

But at this time, the servant who sent him in hurriedly asked Wen Tiren.

"Master, are you still walking in the dog hole?"

This is really a problem. I was stunned for a moment and looked at the shining mirror. Old Wen suddenly froze his head.

"Go to the front door this time! Let Steward Wen take him out personally, and then prepare a car for me, master, and put that thing on, before the palace is locked, I will enter the palace as soon as possible!"

"Little one obeys!"

"By the way, someone will come right away, and quickly chase that idiot Wu Mengyan back!"

If there is a national war, the Ming Dynasty can't afford to make a fuss, but if the Dongjiang River fights in a small way, the court can save face without spending a few taels of money, then this matter is a good thing, the form is different, Wu Mengyan This chess piece is still useful, so naturally it can't be thrown away for nothing, and if this matter is done well, it can give those thorns in the side a good meal.

Amidst his yelling, the Wen residence suddenly became chaotic.

Half an hour later, the Forbidden City, Dongnuange.

It is said that he is a diligent emperor, but it depends on his mood. This time when he went back, Chongzhen didn't read a book, so he went to Concubine Tian's place to listen to the music for a long time in annoyance, and then he felt a little better. It was in the middle of the night that Zhu Youjian came to the door, and Zhu Youjian was really surprised. After saying hello, he asked in amazement.

"Boss Wen Ge entered the palace in the middle of the night, but what's urgent?"

"Long live God! The minister is guilty!"

With a thump, the old guy also knocked his head on the ground, and he lifted up the mirror Song Xiance sent just now with his hands.

"Just now Dongjiang Mao Jue sent someone to the old man's house, begging the old man to save his life, and also gave the old man a Beiyang mirror, the old man came to apologize!"

What a big deal! Now that the Emperor Chongzhen has seen it all, is there no fish when the water is clear? In the morning, Cao Huachun dared to reveal his secrets, how much he took bribes, Wen Tiren can be regarded as a prime minister, and it’s no big deal to have a mirror, besides The old guy came directly to surrender to himself, which made Chongzhen feel that the old guy was his own, so he couldn't help but waved his hand with a smile.

"Then Dongjiang Mao Jue also has a heart, it's just a mirror, Aiqing"

It's just that his eyes fell on the mirror, and Chongzhen couldn't move his eyes away. This thing is exactly the same as the Japanese mirror presented by the Japanese envoys, and the decoration seems to be more gorgeous. The only side has been given to Queen Zhou. I said a few sour words, and this side was brought to me again.

What kind of person is Wen Tiren? He is a human being! Although he also wants a mirror very much, how can the things outside his body be compared with the appreciation of the emperor, and Mao Jue is willing to worship under him, so he is afraid that there will be no mirror in the future?He immediately offered the box with both hands, and said righteously.

"Your Majesty, such dirty things will be confiscated from the national treasury, and the veterans will never dare to touch them again!"

"Okay, what Aiqing said is true, Wang Daban, send someone to enter the inner treasury!"
