Chapter 10: Two points on the road
After coming out of Chen's mansion, Chang Sihao turned around and looked at the couplet on the door, "Everyone in the family is here. Don't knock on the door if you have something to do." He was stunned for a moment.
The gift was pushed out, and with a "bang", the door was back together again. The doormen didn't even say goodbye. As expected, the upper and lower parts were one. They all "don't bother to pay attention to you".
Chang Sihao saw that the alley was quiet and there was no one around. So he pulled Feng Bao to the leeward side by the wall and asked in a low voice: "From your previous contact with him, is he really right to the things and the people? Or is he worried that the plan to defeat Xu is not feasible."
Feng Bao said in a narrow mind: "In the officialdom, people are the right things. Things are the right things. How can there be such a clear truth? Mr. Chen was a lecturer in Yudi. He acted alone and did not form friends. After entering the cabinet, he was the same. No one could understand his temper. In the past two years, he couldn't stand Xu Jie's actions. He had more and more frictions with him. In fact, there was no difference between things and people. But if he felt that the plan was not feasible, he would borrow it.
If you refuse, then we should be careful. Yan Song was down because of his son Yan Shifan. Master Xu planned the rebellion and acted seriously. He must be very cautious about such things. Lord Qi's subordinates had a series of accidents, which explained some problems. This seems to be a pain in Xu Jie's feet. In fact, it may be their heaviest defense. Before we can grasp the evidence, our actions are a little anxious."
Chang Sihao shook his head: "The opportunity cannot be waited. Only by moving can we find the flaws. Now we focus on uniting. Pulling people over one point will reduce the resistance in the future." Feng Bao said: "As of these people, he is the easiest to pull them over. But the result has become like this. The next plan will be disrupted." Chang Sihao looked at the Chen Mansion Gate Tower again and said: "It's okay. There are no leek flowers."
.Eat sauerkraut powder. With Mr. Chen's temperament, he fought with Xu Jie and even fought with him. Although he could not join our camp, he could still be considered a fork in the road. We still act according to the plan." Feng Bao hurriedly held him and said, "How can we do it? Our plan is a series of things. Without taking advantage of Mr. Chen's power, how can we suppress Zhang Juzheng? Lord Qi and others are subordinates after all. Their words are not strong enough."
Chang Sihao looked straight and thought for a moment. He said, "Then let him go. Let's look for Li Chunfang first." Feng Bao shook his head: "This is not true. Master Li Xiang Wei Xu Jie's horse leader. Even if Chen is forced by the two masters, he may not be able to submit easily. Now these two masters are gone. How can you tell him just by relying on you and me?" Chang Sihao frowned and said, "Looking ahead and looking at the front and behind, you are trapped in your heart. What else can you do? Let's look at the situation and explore the whistle and act according to the opportunity." He immediately ordered Cheng Lian'an to return to the Marquis' Mansion to inform Qi and Liu of the two of them. He told them that the plan had changed. Be careful not to be impatient. He would get on the sedan chair with Feng Bao.
As soon as I left the alley, I entered the road. I came towards Liu Jinwu, a horse, and saw the sedan chair rolling down the saddle.
The sedan chairmen in front stopped. Chang Sihao lifted the side curtain. Seeing that it was him, he was slightly stunned. Cheng Lian'an did not leave. Liu Jinwu leaned closer and said, "What's wrong." Chang Sihao raised his eyebrows. He knew that it was definitely not a good thing when he heard his tone. Liu Jinwu said, "Your Majesty summoned you and Lord Yu, Lord Qi entered the palace. It's very urgent. Lord Qi has gone." At this time, the sedan chair came. Feng Bao also lifted the sedan curtain: "What's going on?" Liu Jinwu said again. He looked around and said, "You guy Xu took action first."
Feng Bao shook his head: "This hasn't even passed the fifth day of the lunar month..." Liu Jinwu said: "Hehe. What else do he care about the first and fifteenth day of the lunar month? Maybe it's because we have been in frequent contact recently. He has noticed it. Let's take action first." Chang Sihao's eyes turned cold: "Don't panic. He is a scheming person. He will not attack easily without seeing the right time. Lord Qi and Lord Yu have no handle in his hands. Where can those who are afraid come from? You and I are not thieves. How can you be so guilty and get distracted?" Liu Jinwu stared for a moment and nodded: "What do you think you should do."
Chang Sihao put the curtain on the sedan chair: "Let's see the situation and let's go."
When he came to the palace, he saw Yu Dayou and Qi Jiguang waiting in the room. Yu Dayou's face was as usual, and he didn't look like he had drunk wine. After asking, he said that he didn't know what the emperor had to do. The eunuch spread the news that the Marquis of Yunzhong had arrived. Soon after, he came out to summon him. Chang Sihao followed him to Yangxin Palace and saluted him. Longqing pulled his wrist and said, "Young brother, do you know where my emperor brother has gone."
Chang Sihao was puzzled in his heart, saying, "He retired to the world with Shui Yanxiang. I'm afraid no one knows the specific whereabouts." Long Qing looked bitter and asked again, "What happened?" Long Qing returned to the table and picked up a piece of paper and handed it: "This is the military newspaper in the south. It is said that there are pirates in Guangdong. Moreover, the combination of water and land is estimated to have 40,000 or 50,000 people in total. The scale is so large that it is far beyond the previous years. They took advantage of the past few days before the New Year that the defenders everywhere were neglecting their defenses. After breaking a county, they quietly retreated. It was obviously a trial of the offensive. A bigger action is just to be behind."
Chang Sihao looked down at the paper slip, but he didn't even catch a single word. He thought: "There are pirates. You ask Changsun Xiaochi what he is doing. Could it be that this pirate is like Wei Yinbao's Gutian Rebel Army. They are all under Juhao Pavilion. It cannot be calculated according to time. When they launched an attack, Zhu Qing and his gang were in the capital. The uprising was a big deal. We can't act blindly under such circumstances."
At this time, Longqing said: "Ronghua has reported all the relevant matters. The leader of this group of pirates is Zeng Yiben. Although he is a pirate, he is quite good at using troops on the land. Now the total number of troops in Guangdong and Guangxi is less than 10,000, and it is relatively scattered. The thief is coming in a magnificent situation. The situation is not optimistic."
Chang Sihao said: "The two adults Yu and Qi have been fighting against the Japanese in the south for many years. They are experienced. As long as they send them to use troops properly, it is not impossible to defeat the more with less. Why should the emperor be so worried?"
Longqing said: "What happened at the Spring Festival banquet in the East Factory. Ronghua has reported to me. My brother has personally experienced it. I should know better than me. As soon as the emperor went, Juhao Pavilion was out of control. Those people were all martial arts masters. Yu and Qi were on the same schedule. While planning troops, they had to be careful of their assassination. How could they win this battle?" Chang Sihao understood at that time: it must be the death of Chen Lu that made him smell the breath. He thought that he and Juhao Pavilion were already incompatible. He said this just now, that he was not worried about the two generals. It was to lead him to volunteer to deal with Juhao Pavilion.
.Hey. Changsun Xiaochi, this smart man, hid Qingqing early. Isn’t it all he can do? He smiled and said, “Your Majesty, don’t worry. This matter is extremely easy to solve.” Long Qing showed joy: “Oh.” Chang Sihao said, “The third son of Xu Ge, Xu Ying, is skillful in swords and horses, is extremely wise and brave. Moreover, the main backbone of Juhao Pavilion are all slaves of the Xu family. I believe that with the prestige of the third son, you will definitely calm the side of the Jiangnan area, so that the two generals can break the thief with confidence.” Long Qing smiled and said, “Brother, you are still joking at this time.”
Chang Sihao smiled and changed his expression, "Emperor, I don't know if I say something or not." Long Qing was slightly stunned when he saw him becoming serious. He suddenly guessed something and reached out to stop him: "The emperor has already disappeared. Mr. Xu has no abnormal movement. He has not mentioned the matter with the south." Unexpectedly, Chang Sihao said, "What I want to say has nothing to do with Mr. Xu."
Longqing looked at him. Zhan Xiu signaled: "Tell me."
Chang Sihao raised his eyes: "Your Majesty, you are a person who has read a big book. Why did the people revolt since ancient times?" Long Qing also looked solemn when he heard this. He thought for a moment and said slowly: "It may be that the officials force the people to rebel, or that the rich and poor are uneven." Chang Sihao said: "It's well said. Whether it's called a rebel or a rebel army, it's a rebellion in the country. If there is a food to eat, who would do this turnaround business? You are in the palace. You are afraid that you don't understand the situation. Now the south has been preventing Japanese and sealing the sea for many years so that fishermen have no fish to fight. The gentry has enclosed land to make the farmer's homes have no land to farm. These fishermen, farmers are idle and hungry. Some people climb high and shout and send grain to rice. Wouldn't they follow each other?" Following the story of Jiang Wan and himself in the south.
After hearing this, Longqing sat slowly on the back of the chair with his hands on his back. He was speechless for a long time.
Chang Sihao said: "Now the Tatars, Oirats, the Tubars, and the powerful enemies in Tibet are waiting for opportunities. We are looking forward to the civil strife in the Ming Dynasty. Juhao Pavilion is different from ordinary rebels. The court should try its best to appease. If we can explain the truth, explain the interests and recruit them, half of the south of the Yangtze River will be safe. Foreign tribes can take advantage of the situation. The situation in the nine borders can also be alleviated a lot. In fact, they are in a wilderness. It is nothing more than lack of daily necessities. Altan has requested tribute for many years.
Open the market. Replace horses with some iron pot tea. Everyone gets each other's needs. What's wrong with it? To be honest, we call ourselves the great power of the Celestial Empire. What kind of etiquette is that people are not raised by their mothers and fathers. There is no etiquette. As the saying goes, ten miles are different styles and hundreds of miles are different. According to my opinion, the people are divided by region and ethnic groups. They discriminate against each other and attack each other. Nothing is better to respect each other, communicate more, integrate culture, and show their strengths."
Long Qing sighed, "Your words are quite consistent with what Gaoge Lao said at the time. Every sentence is reasonable. I don't know. It's just that you and I think like this. All officials don't think like this. Do the people think like this? Even if I think like this, the whole country and the whole country think like this. How can the foreign tribes such as Tatars and Ola share this heart with us?"
Chang Sihao's heart moved slightly and thought, "It turns out that Gao Gong also said this to him. Yes. Gao Gong and Zheng League Leader are like-minded. He spared no effort to promote the Jian Family's priesthood. Unfortunately, he was attacked by the Xu Party and squeezed out of the court. Otherwise, he would have really become my strong support."
Thinking of these brave and knowledgeable national soldiers, he couldn't help but feel bloody. He said earnestly: "I thought so before. But if I didn't try to do some things, I don't know what the result was. At that time, I was just a young man. I only knew to cut down the enemy for one day and eat meat one day. But after contacting more people, I gradually understood a lot of truths. Foreign tribes killed us. We killed foreign tribes and killed us. We killed us and killed us. We were wasted much money and life. Swords and spears could not cut down a nation. What can really convince people is thoughts and hearts. As long as we can put ourselves in our shoes and exchange our hearts for our hearts. Transfer what people think into what I think and what I think to others. Then people are me. Isn't it all the people who are united?"
Longqing's eyes were bright when he heard this. He stood up and grabbed him and said, "Brother, I didn't expect you to have such insight."
Chang Sihao was startled by him and said hurriedly: "I don't dare to take it as a result. It's just a little idea."
Long Qing smiled and said, "It's not a small idea. This is a big strategy. This is the way to fight the heart. That is, a soldier who does not fight. It is the best strategy among the best."
Chang Sihao was stunned. He thought I was talking about "changing hearts". Why did it become "destroying hearts" when you are about to speak. Long Qing patted his hand and said, "However, the matter of opening the sea and tribute is of great importance. It must be decided after the discussion of all officials. We have to take the brows and take care of our eyes first. Zeng Yiben's pirates are quite large. If they can be pacified in one fell swoop, they can also be shocked to other places. Gutian's side was ready to move. This time, Zeng Yiben's invasion of Guangzhou. Wei Yinbao might take the opportunity to make an appointment. This side must be guarded."
Chang Sihao nodded: "Yes."
