Chapter 1008 Governor Taught Me, Governor Saved Me
Yongningbo Zhang Cheng is now the chief military officer of Xuanfu Town, and he will move his family to live in the town in the near future, so he will still live in the General Office of Chicheng Castle for the time being. After all, he is used to living here, and the General Office It is also idle now.

He Chongwu, the former North Road Bingbei Road, has been moved to Huaiqing magistrate, and Guan Liangtong judge Qin Shizheng has also been relocated to Shanxi Liaozhou prefect. Today, the Chicheng Military Preparation Office, Sub-Road Inspection Office, and Household Grain Judge Office are also in an idle state.

Zhang Fuzhen, the governor of Xuanda, stayed in the military preparation office, Jiang Yuxu, the governor of Xuanfu, lived in the sub-inspection office, and Wang Pu, the general soldier of Datong, and Li Fuming, the general soldier of Shanxi, were arranged to rest in the procuratorate office next to the general office.

As for the other officers and generals who came to participate in the public sacrifice of the heroic souls of the Baozhong Temple, they all stayed in the office in the Dading Gate south of the Chi Castle, while the two magistrates of Baoan Prefecture and Yanqing Prefecture lived in the office. Rest in the grain judge's hall.

After the banquet that night, Governor Zhang Fuzhen and Governor Jiang Yuxu left the Admiralty's Office one after the other, walked eastward along Chongning Street, and soon passed the Bell and Drum Tower, and the sedan chair stopped firmly in front of the Military Armament Office.

The Chicheng Armed Forces Administration currently only accepts Xuanda Governor Zhang Fuzhen. After all, besides Yongning Bo in Chicheng Castle, he is the most honorable Xuanda Governor.

Jiang Yuxu got off the sedan chair and followed Governor Zhang Fuzhen, and entered the military preparations department without saying a word. When he came to the east side hall of the central hall, he felt warmth rushing into his face as soon as he entered the door.

The burning charcoal stove in the side hall gave off steaming heat, which formed a sharp contrast between the north wind whistling inside and outside, and the accompanying servants stepped forward to take off their coats for the two of them.

They came to the chairs beside the tea table and sat down. Governor Zhang Fuzhen just stretched out his hand to pick up the teacup, and took a sip of the green tea to relieve the greasyness from the banquet just now.

But Governor Jiang Yuxu said to him at this moment: "Director, have you ever noticed anything unusual in Xuanbei?"

Zhang Fuzhen's hand paused in the air, but only for a moment, and then continued to reach forward to pick up the teacup. He frowned, took a sip of the tea, and then said slowly: "Uncle Yongning is indeed a hero among men." In just a short period of time, I saw that this bitterly cold place has been governed so prosperously."

He gently put down the teacup, and continued: "The prosperity of business is second to none. What is even rarer is political clarity and people's peace of mind. How Yongning Bo can do this, the old man is also puzzled!"

Jiang Yuxu's face bounced a few times, he raised his hand to stroke his sparse beard, and said, "Minister, I have heard a lot about this Fu in the town, and the North Road under Yongning Bo's rule has always had private border trade and slave trade. , the prosperity here may have a lot to do with it."

"Oh."

Zhang Fuzhen responded softly, and immediately closed his eyes tightly, as if in deep thought, and didn't say a word.

Seeing him like this, Jiang Yuxu went on to say, "There is one more point. I don't know if the governor has noticed it?"

Zhang Fuzhen opened his eyes and narrowed his eyes: "Which point."

Seeing that he seemed to be interested, Jiang Yuxu immediately said: "This governor came to Chicheng a few days earlier than the governor, and walked around in the castle when he had nothing to do. It was exactly as the governor said. The army and the people are rich, the officers and men are full of vigor, and they can defend well, which is really rare and precious."

Hearing Jiang Yuxu's words, Governor Zhang Fuzhen's eyes widened instead, as if he was very interested in what he said next, and Jiang Yuxu went on to say: "But the military and civilian merchants in the North Road area only talk about generals. How and what, but he didn't mention a word to the imperial court, nor did he say anything about the emperor's favor."

When Jiang Yuxu said this, his eyes kept peeking at Zhang Fuzhen's face. Seeing that he was not displeased, he changed the subject and said bluntly: "The army and the people of the North Road must be a general, and they obey his words, and even respect Yongning Bo as a god." .

This is probably not the blessing of the imperial court. If things go on like this, the North Road will not be the North Road of Xuanfu in the future, nor will it be the North Road of the imperial court.

And Yongning Bo is now the chief military officer of Xuanfu Town, and will also be in charge of the town. In the future, the entire Xuanfu area will be like Beilu. People will respect Yongning Bo as a god, and there will be no court in their hearts. I'm afraid something bad will happen! "

A gleam of light flashed in Zhang Fuzhen's eyes, which seemed to be contrary to his seventy years of age. He was not in a hurry to express his opinion, but stared at the governor Jiang Yuxu for a long time before he said: "There are captives outside, spying on my great river and mountains." , there are thieves inside, wreaking havoc in Zhongzhou, Huguang and several provinces, and the princes in the imperial court only know that the party and government are constantly fighting, so who really cares about Daming Rivers and Mountains?"

Hearing his words, Jiang Yuxu couldn't help being taken aback for a moment, not knowing what Zhang Fuzhen meant, and how to answer the words.

After a while, while Jiang Yuxu was thinking, Zhang Fuzhen's voice came again: "The country is currently in internal and external difficulties, and its financial resources are exhausted. Seeing that it can no longer support it, and the whole country, how many generals and soldiers dare to fight?
The Liaodong area was oppressed and beaten by captives. They invaded the interior several times and three times. They captured countless people and robbed me of money and food. The trouble of exiles is no less than that of captives. Who can govern the land of the province? "

Zhang Fuzhen continued to speak to him with a sudden emphasis: "It is fortunate to have Uncle Yongning, who governed Xuanbei's military and government well, and also commanded the army to obtain the law. Before that, he had the merit of killing slaves by King Qin, and later, he had the achievement of aiding and suppressing Henan Province.

But this time to aid the Liao war slaves, not to mention beheading thousands of captives, but more than ten captives under King Duoduo. To guard against captives and thieves, you need the generals you need. "

When he said this, his tone became calmer again, and he continued to say to Jiang Yuxu earnestly: "Ah Zhongping, you are also a border minister of the court, so you should know the difficulties in the court, and you should not just look at the appearance.

Just like what Yongningbo did in Xuanbei, the root cause of it is not to recruit soldiers and train soldiers for money, and to fight slaves for the country?
'If you want the horse to run, you have to feed the horse', you and I both understand it, Yongningbo also understands it, and other town commanders understand it, and all the officials in the court understand it better, but The national money is empty, 'a clever woman can't cook without rice' ah!

Now, although Yongningbo is acting a bit perversely in Xuanbei, there are many things that are not in accordance with the law, or even damage the prestige of the court, but his purpose is only to raise a strong army for the court.

"I want the horse to run fast, but I don't want to feed the horse." How can anyone do this? "

Governor Jiang Yuxu also felt that Zhang Fuzhen's words were reasonable, but in his heart, he was still very wary of Zhang Cheng, so he couldn't help but open his mouth to defend himself: "Although this is the case, the officers and men of the Xuanfu only know Uncle Yongning in their hearts, and they don't have the imperial court , without the current emperor, it is not a good thing, if something happens in the future, I am afraid that the governors and subordinate officials cannot bear it."

Zhang Fuzhen did not answer his words immediately, but stretched out his hand to take the teacup, drank it slowly, and after a while, he said: "Zhongping, how can you ensure that what you see is not the appearance?
As far as private trading with captives and thieves is concerned, how many people are not like this among the generals in the frontier fortresses. Has the country ever punished anyone for this, and they all turn a blind eye.

Another example is being perverted and domineering, not abiding by etiquette, privately setting rewards, despising superiors, etc., and there are several soldiers who have been out of the town who are not like this. How can we judge Yongningbo's disloyalty to the court and the emperor based on these alone?

Uncle Yongning fought for my Ming dynasty, especially the Julu battle in 11 years, which was the most tragic. Now, based on guesswork, he dared to assert that he was disloyal to the court, Ming Dynasty, and the emperor, but how convincing are people.

What's more, Yongning Bo's relationship with the imperial court and the emperor is like a hope. Even if he wants to prevent him from having a different heart, it is a matter of calming the bandits inside and destroying the captives outside. "

When Jiang Yuxu heard the words, he also felt that there was some truth, but he still said worriedly: "I'm afraid it will be too late to think about it at that time."

But Zhang Fuzhen said indifferently: "My great ancestor of the Ming Dynasty was born in commoner clothes, and in all the dynasties, he won the most righteous country.

And so far, it has been more than 270 years since the founding of the country. It has blessed the people of the world and won the hearts of the people. The foundation is so stable, how can it be easily shaken? "

He took a sip of his tea before continuing: "Right now, my Ming's difficulty lies not in taxation, money and food, nor in the mixing of officials and officials. The first is the rogues, and the second is the captives. This difficulty.

Uncle Yongning, after all, was still the Earl of Ming Dynasty. In the name of a great general, he commanded the best soldiers in the world, if he could wipe out the bandits in one fell swoop, drive out the captives, stabilize the Liaodong defense line, and bring peace to the people in the world.

At that time, we will clean up the imperial court, try our best to soothe the hearts of the people, resume production, and restore the people's strength. Even if Uncle Yongning has different ambitions, the chaos will stop and the people will feel at ease. Ren Ding, what can he do? "

Jiang Yuxu obviously didn't quite agree with Zhang Fuzhen's words, he opened his mouth and smacked his mouth a few times, but suddenly felt that he had nothing to say, and his expression was extremely strange.

All of this naturally cannot escape Zhang Fuzhen's eyes. He put down the teacup and continued: "Zhongping, you also know that Yongning Bo has returned from his meritorious service in Liaodong. Hope is like the pillar of a country.

Even if he behaved pervertedly, arrogantly and domineeringly, or even overreached in Xuanfu, so what, if you report these things to the court, the elders in the court hall will not make a fuss about it.

However, if Yongning Bo was punished because of this, can it be possible to rely on the elders in the court and the ministers to suppress the thieves? "

Governor Zhang Fuzhen's words pierced Jiang Yuxu's heart every sentence. The more he listened, the more flustered he became, and beads of sweat gradually dripped down from his forehead.

"If this is the case, the elders and officials must insist that Yongning Bo be questioned, and the emperor will definitely keep Yongning Bo, so that he can serve the country, suppress the bandits internally, and guard the slaves externally.

In the imperial court, the monarchs and ministers refused to give in to each other, and the generals of the towns and towns in the localities would also be panic-stricken. At that time, who would they expect to fight against the thieves and keep the slaves?
are you going?
or should I go? "

Zhang Fuzhen's tone became more and more serious, and Jiang Yuxu's heart became more and more flustered. He replied in fear: "This... this..."

"Nowadays, rebellion is rampant across the land of Zhongzhou, and there is almost no one who can rule it. Half of Yu Province is almost in the hands of bandits. Millions of people are under their control. There are nearly hundreds of thousands of soldiers, which is greatly shaken. The state of the cornerstone of the dynasty.

If that time really comes, let's not talk about whether Uncle Yongning has a different intention, just the fact that he can no longer send troops to stop the bandits, it will be my Ming Dynasty's death.

And the instigator of all this is you, Jiang Yuxu! "

"Governor... Governor..."

Jiang Yuxu was extremely flustered, and he said in a trembling voice: "The governor taught me, the governor saved me..."

Zhang Fuzhen traveled long distances to Chicheng. Although he was fasting for two days, he still participated in the ceremony of burying the fallen soldiers.

But today after the public sacrifice, I went to discuss matters in the general's office, and then there was a banquet. After a whole day of tossing, I was already very tired, and I had talked a lot just now, and now I felt tired, and I didn't want to go back Talk too much.

Therefore, he just said lightly: "Everyone according to their own affairs, but only coaxing Yongningbo to go to the town, complete the handover, and send troops to Yu Province to suppress the bandits as soon as possible, so as to relieve the emperor's worries.

Yu Guo is also a great achievement! "

After the governor Zhang Fuzhen finished speaking, he lightly raised the teacup as a gesture of seeing off the guests.

Jiang Yuxu was able to be a governor of one place, and his ministers were first-class, so he was not a fool. How could he not understand the meaning of Zhang Fuzhen's words, and how could he not see his behavior of seeing off guests.

Immediately, he got up and clasped his fists and said: "Yu Xu has won the trust of the emperor, and sent him to inspect the Xuanfu area. He will relieve the country's worries and serve the emperor loyally.

The governor is very tired today, please rest early.Yu Xu left now. "

After leaving the side hall, the cold night wind kept blowing against his body, Jiang Yuxu shuddered directly, and his body trembled for a while, the servant who was serving at the side rushed forward and supported him.

He walked slowly in the cold wind, while wiping the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve, but he was still terrified.

…………

Just when Jiang Yuxu broke out in a cold sweat and left the procuratorate's office in fear, the banquet in the Chicheng Castle General's Office was at its climax.

The early departure of Governor Zhang Fuzhen and Governor Jiang Yuxu brought the banquet to a climax!
The generals are already rough, and they live a life of licking blood with knives, so they are almost all bold and unrestrained in nature, and they are also hard-nosed when drinking.

Originally, there were governors and governors in charge of the place here, and everyone was more or less restrained and did not dare to be unscrupulous, but now the two of them left the table after drinking for three rounds.

Everyone immediately recovered their nature, and the scene became lively in an instant!

Yongning Bo Zhang Cheng was very fond of the generals under his command, and he was also willing to mingle with these subordinates who were born and died, so after sending the governor and governor away, he did not return to his table, but picked up the wine glass to drink. The table is toasted.

Previously, only Jin Xinpeng, Yan Qingrong, Wu Zhizhong, Chen Zheng, Zhang Guodong, etc. who were very close to their subordinates dared to go to the lobby to toast. The other generals of the battalions and thousands of households have not toasted him yet.

Seeing that Uncle Yongning actually came to toast them in person, everyone felt flattered, bursts of joyful cheers came and went one after another.

The two general soldiers, Wang Pu and Li Fuming, also left the table from the hall. They followed Zhang Cheng and toasted at the table. They declared that they would be as close as possible to the Xuanfu warriors, and that they would fight side by side in the future. Life and death!
