Jinyi Night Walk

When Zhu Gaochi saw Xia Xun, his first sentence was: "Xining Hou Songsheng died of illness!"

Xia Xun heard an "ah", and his heart was blank. After being together for so long, he has a friendship. Besides, this old general is simply a general of the Zhe family and Yang family of the Ming Dynasty. When he was in Xiliang, he knew that the old general's health was getting weaker and weaker, and he might die soon. Hearing the news suddenly, he felt a little sad.

Zhu Gaochi's second sentence was: "The envoys of the fourth prince of the Timur Empire, Shah Ruh, and the emperor's grandson, Harry Sultan, are about to arrive in the capital."

Xia Xun regained his composure, and said nahantically: "The prince summoned you as a minister, do you want the minister to receive you as an envoy?"

Xia Xun hesitated for a while, and said: "This matter... the emperor is not in the capital, it seems more appropriate to arrange for the Ministry of Rites to come forward. If ministers are required to participate, the prince can ask the Ministry of Rites to make a proposal, so as not to be taken advantage of by villains again."

Zhu Gaochi waved his hands with a wry smile, and said: "Otherwise, I am talking about this matter alone, because this is one of three news from Xiliang. You know the situation of the Tiemu'er Empire best. After they arrive in Beijing, they will have to work. The Duke came forward to receive him to find out what is true, and he was honest and honest, so he didn’t need to go through the Ministry of Rites. Since the Duke said so, it’s okay to go through the Ministry of Rites first. What Gu really wants to talk to you is another matter.”

Xia Xun looked serious and said, "Prince, please speak!"

"Come, come, sit down and talk!"

Zhu Gaochi pulled Xia Xun to the chair, pushed him into the chair without any explanation, and then walked to the other side.

His chair is a special Taishi chair, which is two times larger than the usual model, but it is easy to sit in.

Zhu Gaochi sat down.The little eunuch served tea to the crown prince and the Duke, and Zhu Gaochi took out a quick play and said, "The situation inside is very detailed, the Duke will take a look first."

Xia Xun leaned over to take the memorial, unfolded it and took a closer look. It turned out that something happened in the Western Regions.

Song Sheng, Marquis of Xining, was old and sick, and the treatment was ineffective.He just passed away recently. This memorial was written by Song Hu, the second son of Lord Song, and it was originally just a funeral memorial.If that was the case, Zhu Gaochi wouldn't need to call Xia Xun to discuss it, he would just seal the memorial and send it to the emperor for review.

However, Song Hu attached an additional page to the back of the already written memorial. The handwriting on the additional page was scribbled, in stark contrast to the stroke-by-stroke, neat handwriting on the front.Obviously.Song Hu was writing the funeral memorial and was about to submit it to the emperor when he suddenly received an urgent message. Because of the urgency of the situation, he wrote it in a hurry.

Only one thing is mentioned in the encore: Alama Yasana.

Alamaya is the leader of an ancient Mongolian tribe in Xiliang, because of his unruly temperament, the tribe, other tribes and Han people often get dirty together, and Song Sheng's prestige was originally intimidating.Book mi group 2 He can still endure.As soon as Song Sheng died, his tribe had conflicts with other Xiliang people over herding, and they rebelled brazenly.

Alamaya raided Suzhou, occupied Suzhou as a base, and then sent two groups of messengers, all the way to Qilian Mountain to find Tuotuo Buhua, and all the way to find his friend Talini, intending to form an alliance against the Ming Dynasty.

But he didn't know that since he took off from Buhua Wansongling and became Oala Khan.In order to ensure his safety, the Ming court not only sealed up the news of Zhen Tuo Tuo Buhua's death, but also controlled the real Agadorji, and all the herdsmen in the department moved inward and moved to other places.In the end, I was in vain when I contacted the person who was not Hua.

And his friend Talini did not agree to rebel with him.Talini is the leader of the Chijin Menggu, who was named Chijin Menggu Qianhu by the Ming court.He is not as arrogant as Alamaya, in front of the interests of the entire tribe.Personal friendship had to be put aside, Talini rejected Alamaya's request, and in order to clear himself, he also arrested the six envoys sent by Alamaya and sent them to the Xining Hou Mansion.

Song Hu is currently in charge of Xiliang's military administration.He sent troops to encircle and suppress Aramaya, but failed in the first battle.Alamaya killed the commander Liu Bingqian and other Ming generals, and his momentum has been greatly increased. He is now recruiting troops, and using his status as an ancient Mongolian and a Muslim, he intends to call on the two largest forces in Xiliang to use him. .

Although Song Hu started to take charge of Xiliang's military administration for his father several years ago, there is an old man in the family who sits there, which is quite different from making overall decisions for himself. He is worried that the anti-military forces will spread, so he doesn't care about his father's future. On the one hand, he personally led the troops to fight against Alamaya, and on the other hand, he reported to Beijing.

This matter is indeed very important. The two missions of the Timurid Empire had already passed through Suzhou before the rebellion of Alamaya. The idea, in diplomatic relations with Daming, this can also be used as a condition to bargain and strive for more benefits.

Zhu Gaochi said anxiously: "Duke, this matter is urgent! But the emperor is not in the capital. If it is transferred to the capital, it may delay the time. The situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly. Once the Western Regions are invaded, the consequences will be disastrous. But this matter involves soldiers and horses." In terms of mobilization, I can't make my own claims, and the forces in the Western Regions are intricate, and I don't know much about it. Once I make a wrong decision..."

Zhu Gaochi rubbed his hands, smiled wryly and said: "This matter cannot be ignored, and there is no way to handle it..."

"Wait a minute!"

Xia Xun's expression couldn't help changing when he heard what he said, and quickly picked up the memorial, looked carefully, and said softly, "This is Song Hu's memorial to the emperor."

Zhu Gaochi said: "Yes!"

Xia Xun said: "Before the emperor's northern tour, he has already informed the whole country. Song Hu should know that the emperor is in Beijing. And the report from Xiliang to the Central Plains will be sent to Beijing faster than to Nanjing!"

Zhu Gaochi was startled, and hesitated, "Duke Guo said..."

Xia Xun said: "Prince, in my opinion, I am afraid that General Song Hu's memorial..."

Xia Xun stopped in the middle of speaking, and said with a slight smile, "The crown prince has Zuo Yude Yang Shiqi, who is also a great talent in the world. I want to discuss this matter with Yang Yude first, and then return to the prince, is that okay?"

Zhu Gaochi hurriedly said: "Naturally." Then he asked someone to call Yang Shiqi, let the small study room out to the two, and went to review the memorial first.

As soon as the prince left, Xia Xun showed Yang Shiqi the memorial, and said to Yang Shiqi, "What does Shiqi think?"

Yang Shiqi narrowed his eyes slightly, and said in a deep voice, "I think the official thought that General Song Hu probably wrote more than one copy of this memorial."

Xia Xun said happily: "That's right! The emperor is not in the capital, and the crown prince will inevitably worry about gains and losses when he encounters such important military affairs suddenly. The same is true for General Song Hu. Just after the death of the Marquis of Xining, Xiliang gave birth to a son-in-law. .Song Hu is only acting as Xiliang's commander-in-chief temporarily, and his status is undecided, which is similar to the current situation of the crown prince, generally embarrassed, and equally worried about gains and losses."

Yang Shiqi interjected: "Xiliang is a certain distance from the Central Plains. General Song Hu must be worried that if the emperor has returned from Beijing to the south, the message will be delayed and the court's major affairs will be delayed. He only wrote two memorials. One was reported to Beijing, and the other was reported to Nanjing. Because of the urgency of the matter and the possibility that the emperor is still in Beijing is relatively high, the memorial to Nanjing is an additional page attached to the original memorial. And the memorial to Beijing. Re-transcribed."

Xia Xun laughed and said, "That's right, that's exactly the reason. Then according to Shiqi's opinion, what should the crown prince do with General Song Hu's memorial?"

Yang Shiqi mopped his beard, glanced at Xia Xun, and tentatively said: "Seal the memorial and forward it to Beijing, how about it?"

Xia Xun blinked and said: "Then if we make a mistake in guessing, General Song just wrote this memorial? It's a big military matter. If you don't rush to make a decision, won't the emperor be angry that the prince is not doing things with care? Besides, how can he appear to be a prince?" What about his diligence and loyalty?"

Yang Shiqi said: "This..., then reply seriously and make some suggestions?"

Xia Xun said: "It's a big military matter, if you make a good claim, in case the emperor doesn't like it, how about reprimand?"

"This……"

"Furthermore, if Beijing also sends a memorial, the emperor has already made a decision, and the crown prince's property is sent to Xiliang, which is just a scrap of paper. Wouldn't it damage the crown prince's prestige?"

"This one……"

Yang Shiqi also blinked, and said instead: "That's according to the Duke's opinion. Is there a way to get the best of both worlds?"

Looking at his appearance, Xia Xun clearly had an idea, but he was a small official, so he was not as responsible as he was. Of course, he had to take a walk when he could, so he expressed his idea, and Yang Shiqi told him earlier I had the same thought, but the window paper was not easy to pierce. When Xia Xun said it, I was astonished and praised, and the two of them were in the study under Xia Xun's instruction, and Yang Shiqi wrote. Soon a decree and a memorial were concocted.

The decree was in duplicate, and one was to be stamped with the crown prince’s seal and distributed to Xilianghe. At the beginning, Song Hu was reprimanded: The emperor has clearly issued an order for the whole world to inspect Beijing. If such an important military memorial was not reported to Beijing immediately, he sent it out. When you come to Nanjing, once your military plane is delayed, the law of the country will not take it lightly.Then he put forward a treatment opinion: order Song Hu to dispatch the Xiliang army on the spot to fight against the rebels with all their strength.

Because the rebels occupied Suzhou, they ordered the two guards of Shazhou to participate in the pacification. At the same time, they praised Chijin Menggu for his loyalty, and declared that he would ask the emperor for an order and reward him.At the same time, a letter from Fu Guogong is attached, which is written to several great imams in Xiliang, using Xia Xun's special status in the sect, admonishing them to restrain the believers, not to be used by Alama Ya, once Tianwei is offended, Sorry to wait.

As for another edict with the same content, it was submitted to Beijing as an appendix to the emperor's memorial.In the memorial, the reasons and difficulties of making the assertion are stated, and the emperor is pleaded guilty.If there is anything inappropriate, please correct it immediately by His Majesty the Emperor.

After Yang Shiqi finished writing, he coughed lightly and said, "Duke, the prince is upright, so we don't need to tell the prince about our speculations?"

Xia Xun said: "Since it's a speculation without evidence, don't tell the prince!"

Yang Shiqi blew the undone memorial, and sighed softly: "The prince has put all his pains and effort into this memorial, but if there are slanderers, the prince may still be reprimanded."

Xia Xun said: "Sometimes praising a person doesn't necessarily mean praising him, and reprimanding a person doesn't necessarily mean really annoying him. If things are well-behaved and scolded, it's a way to get closer to each other. The method is better than the indifference of father and son respecting each other as guests. Shiqi is also a person who has sons and daughters, and when he understands, the child who is scolded and scolded fiercely is sometimes the one his father likes the most."

Yang Shiqi said: "But in the eyes of the King of Han, he will only see the crown prince being reprimanded again. I'm afraid the King of Han will become even more arrogant..."

Xia Xun smiled slightly, but did not answer.
