Borrow the day to change the day

On the way, Ai Nengqi, one of the four primary schools, couldn't help being curious, and asked Zhong Jinwei: "Uncle, when did the story you told happen?"

When Zhong Jinwei heard this, he looked back at him, smiled and replied, "This happened a long, long time ago."

Ainengqi waited for a while, but didn't hear Zhong Jinwei's next words, so he asked again: "Uncle, when did it happen?"

"long long ago."

Li Wenxiu couldn't help it anymore, he asked on behalf of Ainengqi: "And then?"

"There is a temple on the mountain." Zhong Jinwei squeezed out a sentence like squeezing toothpaste.

Li Dingguo also couldn't understand, and joined the ranks of this question: "Uncle, what then?"

"There is a monk in the temple."

Zhong Jinwei's answer had nothing to do with the previous story. Li Dingguo suddenly realized that his uncle was joking with them, so he stopped Sun Kewang who wanted to ask, and shouted, "Uncle!"

Zhong Jinwei heard a trace of dissatisfaction in those words, smiled, reined in his horse, turned to look at the four of them and said, "You must remember that people cannot be pedantic. Sometimes the truth is not important, what is important is its rationality and Can you achieve your goal, understand?"

After he finished speaking, he saw that the four of them seemed to understand a little bit, and his face immediately turned serious again: "But you have to remember, don't use it in a crooked way, understand?"

Seeing Zhong Jinwei's expression, the Fourth Elementary School nodded seriously.

It was only when Zhong Jinwei was joking with Ainengqi just now that he remembered that he could take the opportunity to teach the fourth child some rules of conduct.Therefore, after he finished speaking, he continued on his way without any further speeches.

Zhong Jinwei was a frequent visitor to the Forbidden City, and no one made things difficult for him. He went all the way unimpeded and soon arrived at the Wenhua Palace.

Wen Tiren, Chief Assistant of the Cabinet, and Liang Tingdong, Secretary of the Ministry of War, were already in the Wenhua Palace. When Zhong Jinwei saw that the faces of the two of them were filled with happiness, he thought that something was going well.

Sure enough, Emperor Chongzhen said to Zhong Jinwei with a smile on his face: "Master Zhong, the Jian prisoners of Jinzhou have retreated."

When Zhong Jinwei heard this, he asked in surprise, "How many reinforcements did Master Sun dispatch?"

Emperor Chongzhen saw that Zhong Jinwei didn't guess the reason right away, so he asked with a hint of color, "Master Zhong, do you guess?"

When this person is in a good mood, even if he is the emperor of a country, he will think of making a joke to mediate his emotions.

Zhong Jinwei looked at Emperor Chongzhen's slightly displeased face, then turned to look at Wen Tiren and Liang Tingdong, who also looked at himself with a smile.

There was a slight movement in his heart, and combined with his later generations' understanding of Shanhaiguan and the previous discussions, he had the answer in his heart.

"Your Majesty, is it Denglai's support that caused the Jianlu of Jinzhou to retreat?" Zhong Jinwei looked at Emperor Chongzhen and asked.

Unexpectedly, Emperor Chongzhen nodded and shook his head again, which made Zhong Jinwei confused. Did he guess right or wrong?

"Jianlu voluntarily retreated, but whether it was Denglai's reason or not, I don't know yet. I didn't expect Master Zhong's previous suggestion to have a miraculous effect, so one of the reasons why I sent you here is to tell you about it .”

Zhong Jinwei was a little confused when he heard it. He had given Emperor Chongzhen too many suggestions, and he didn't know which one he was referring to.

Emperor Chongzhen made a joke just now, so he stopped asking Zhong Jinwei to guess, and said directly: "The news from Shanhaiguan [-] miles urgently said that Jianlu besieged Jinzhou and came in pursuit of the death camp. The Jianlu incident happened If you are not prepared, if you cannot be surrounded, you will have to retreat."

Zhong Jinwei was also very happy when he heard that there was news about the death camp. He quickly asked with concern: "Your Majesty, how is the situation in the death camp?"

However, he was also a little puzzled. Since this Jianlu was unprepared, it was obvious that he couldn't be defeated, so why did he stay around for so many days?

Emperor Chongzhen did not directly answer Zhong Jinwei's words, he said to the Minister of War: "Liang Qing will show the urgent report to Master Zhong."

Liang Tingdong kept holding the urgent report in his hand, and only then gave it to Zhong Jinwei.

Zhong Jinwei looked at it at a glance. The casualties in the death camp were heavy, but the results were also brilliant.He first congratulated Emperor Chongzhen and said, "Thanks to Your Majesty, the death camp has captured Jianlu's biggest lackey alive. Your Majesty, I have a suggestion."

Emperor Chongzhen saw that Zhong Jinwei was flattering him, and was about to talk about him, but after hearing his last sentence, he put aside this idea and asked directly: "Master Zhong, what suggestion do you have?"

He now welcomes Zhong Jinwei's suggestion very much, because it has been proved that Zhong Jinwei's suggestion will bring him and Daming a lot of benefits.

"Invite all the tribes in the grassland to gather in the capital to watch King Darhan's punishment. Let them know that no matter how powerful Da Ming is, Da Ming will never let anyone who dares to fight against him. King Darhan is an example."

In the civilized age of the 21st century, there are still a large number of massacres of overseas Chinese in Southeast Asia.If it were American overseas Chinese, would they still dare to do this?

Therefore, Zhong Jinwei suggested to Emperor Chongzhen that he should be a sage inside and a king outside.In this way, only the Han people will return to their hearts, and the Siyi will surrender.

His suggestion is also based on this.

Before Emperor Chongzhen could respond, Liang Tingdong frowned and had a different opinion: "Marquis Zhongxing, I'm afraid this is not very good. If the grassland tribes object, especially when Lin Danhan is still in charge of the grassland tribes in name, we will Doing so is not equivalent to slapping them in the face. At that time, the frontier may not be peaceful."

Zhong Jinwei is concerned about the situation in the grasslands, has been to Zhangjiakou, and has had contact with Lin Danhan's son and the leaders of other tribes, and knows more than Liang Tingdong.

It's true that he's an angry youth, but he's also an angry youth in his thirties, and of course he's not just thinking about things on his own will.

Zhong Jinwei turned to Liang Tingdong and explained to him: "The grassland is now a piece of loose sand. The name of Lin Dan Khan, the Khan, has long existed in name only, and he himself was beaten by Jianlu until he even abandoned the capital. What's more, the king of Darhan is his Let’s help Jianlu fight him together. Now that our Ming Dynasty has shown its strength, it is enough to deter them if we can capture King Darhan, who Lin Danhan can’t do anything about, to the capital from thousands of miles away.”

When he said this, he showed a look of yearning again, and told Liang Tingdong and everyone in the hall: "I think when the Taizu became the ancestor, our Ming Dynasty beat the Mongols and ran away. It's exciting!"

After Zhong Jinwei finished speaking, the Wenhua Hall fell silent.No one spoke, and they were all remembering that period of proud history.

In the end, it was Zhong Jinwei who broke the quiet atmosphere: "And we are not expanding the trade point of Zhangjiakou. The Mongolian tribes who have good relations with Daming will let them come to trade and improve their living conditions. The Mongolians who are malicious to Daming tribe, we will resolutely block and attack them. As long as they are normal people, I think they will know how to do it?"

When Zhong Jinwei said this, he remembered something and ignored Liang Tingdong. He turned to Emperor Chongzhen and said, "Your Majesty, what happened to the road government office? The cement road to Zhangjiakou should also be repaired."
