Chapter 918: Powerful ministers can also ministers
Chapter 918 Powerful ministers can also be
"Why should I take it out to see if the military pay is deducted and the killing of slaves is a matter of taking it out? Isn't this marquis mentioning it to the court? Wouldn't it be a joke to your Majesty and all the adults?"
The part that Hou Zhen found was allocated by the imperial court to Liaozhen. Two-thirds of it was intercepted in Liaoyang, half of which was used as a family, and half of it was to go to Tianjin Weifa to make money. All such things were done in the border towns, but the Li family in Liaozhen were doing too boldly.
But this is nothing. For the court, a border town that is loyal and able to fight is a good border town, and this money is really a trivial matter.
In this article, there is also a report accompanied by an eyeliner from the Jinyiwei, saying that a soldier in the Li family's house had an affair with the maid in Li Rubai's inner house and was caught and both were beaten to death.
This is also a common thing. The maid in the inner house had an affair with someone from the outer house and was caught and beaten to death by the master's family. Such a case is really not rare. Perhaps it is considered by the Founder of the Communist Party of China to be a member of the Qingzheng family. Who would be serious? If you talk about a general with a title, you will be ridiculed.
The document he took out was thrown back by Wang Tong. Hou Zhen smiled and asked respectfully:
"I don't know what kind of news the Tutang wants, so the official took the liberty to say, what the Tutang wants to do now is no longer a big deal, just look at whether the Tutang wants to do it..."
Hou Zhen said that Wang Tong glanced at him and immediately shut up and bowed down. Wang Tong shook his head and said:
"As you said, people in the world will definitely say that I framed a general with ulterior motives. It is not impossible to become a big deal. It also depends on what kind of small things are. If you want to deduct military pay and kill slaves, wouldn't it make the generals of the whole world be wary?"
After asking back, Hou Zhen hurriedly knelt down and quickly defended himself:
"What the capital teaches is that the villain thinks about it for a moment, and he has no other intentions. I hope the capital will understand it!"
Seeing that Hou Zhen's face was already pale, Wang Tong was stunned. Unexpectedly, Hou Zhen had such a big reaction. Then he realized that Hou Zhen was afraid that he would misunderstand that he was setting up a trap to frame him.
Wang Tong couldn't help but smile bitterly, but this was not a bad thing, which showed that his prestige among the Jinyiwei Departments had gradually been established.
"Don't think so much, get up!"
Wang Tong said casually, "The Jinyiwei really wants to frame someone, just grab a small matter and put it in an exaggeration." What Hou Zhen said is a common practice. Wang Tong pondered for a while and said slowly:
"You said that those things are not painful. If you have any ill-hearted intentions and communicate with foreign affairs, you can do it to the point of being too big."
When Hou Zhen heard this, he couldn't help but shivered. He thought that it was rumored that Hou was a traitor, but most people in the Jinyiwei thought that Wang Tong was a capable minister who did practical things. When he heard these words today, he realized that Wang Tong was really amazing in the word "traitor". He didn't know that the Li family was just normal jealousy and hostility, and he was going to think of such a great sin to deal with them.
But when I think of this, I feel a little happy. Wang Tong was able to arrange for him to do this and also saw him as a confidant. He immediately bowed and said:
"Since the Marquis has given a way, the officials will know how to do it. However, this matter may take some time. First, it requires a lot of documents and it is troublesome to review it. Second, it requires a few trustworthy people to help you with this matter, and the officials may not be able to rest assured."
Wang Tong nodded and asked again:
"Can this be done before the first month?"
"There is no need to find it until the first lunar month. At the latest in the twelfth lunar month, I can find it for the marquis. Please rest assured."
It is difficult for people outside to know what the Jinyiwei is doing inside, especially people like Hou Zhen who are willing to do it privately, and it is difficult for outsiders to know.
Wang Tong knew what Hou Zhen was doing. After experiencing the function of being in charge of the document, he used the excuse of finding that the document was worm-eaten and needed to be sorted out. A group of people were transferred. After the document was made, it was easy to change the cover again.
This is a means. Only those who know know what to do. Others are just helping, but not what the purpose is.
He couldn't wait for the news for a while, but Wang Tong was not in a hurry. Sun Shoulian understood what he said. The news from Li Chengliang's mansion said that he would cause trouble for him again in the beginning of spring next year, and there was still plenty of time.
The same old saying is that if the general of Liao Town wants to move the subordinate generals, his opinions are the main ones, but he must pass the Ji Liao Governor, and the Ministry of War and the court must also follow the procedures. The rules of the generals of the big and small can not be destroyed so easily. If the general of a town can easily replace the subordinate generals, this is not the territory of the Ming Dynasty but his family.
In the twelfth lunar month, news came from the Ministry of War that it was said that the Li family members had entered Beijing to engage in activities. Generally speaking, a subordinate general was rampant and almost ruined the army's affairs during the Western Expedition to Dolun. However, the general was polite to his subordinates, so he continued to let him be in that position. But now this person did not know how to restrain himself, and he was still doing something wrong in the position of the general general. In order to purify the Liao Town, he had to use a means of punishment.
These are all official articles, and everyone understands what's going on. However, there are many people who have benefited from Liao Town from the Ministry of War. I've been greeting here, and it's time to get a lot of convenience when I start.
As for the Governor of Ji Liao, this civil servant is actually a joke. The general of Ji Town, Li Yunlai, and the general of Liao Town, Li Chengliang, were all generals who reached the sky. Who would pay attention to such civil servants?
The news from the Ministry of War confirmed Sun Shoulian's statement. Although Sun Shoulian had a relationship with Wang Tong in this way, he was not without the possibility of helping Liao Town to plot against Wang Tong.
Sun Shoulian was a local tyrant and had a business arrangement. A few days after I got the news from the Ministry of War, the Jinyiwei and Sanjiang Trading Company also sent back the news from Liaodong. The things they got were not so clear. There was only a vague news in Liaoyang that Sun Shoulian and Tianjin Guards were too close to each other, and the general was very unhappy.
After several news confirmed that Wang Tong had no other thoughts, he just sighed that the general of the Ming Dynasty, who knew politics and was able to be an official, was a little lacking in marching and fighting.
On the ninth day of the twelfth lunar month of the 13th year of Wanli, there was no feedback from Hou Zhen, and there was no new news from Liao Town. However, there was a new news in Guihua City.
Two vassals of the Chahar tribe broke away from Chahar's control and defected to Guihua City. The Chahar tribe sent five hundred horses and two nobles of relatives and nobles as hostages and lived in Guihua City. They were considered to seek peace from Guihua City, and the conflict ahead would not continue to be entangled.
Meng Duo's memorials are naturally written in the flowers, such as Emperor Wanli Wei Yuan Huaide, the barbarians from all over the world respectfully respected them, etc., but the detailed content is also clear. The conflict with Chahar in the Guihua City armed forces took a big advantage, and the battle itself is no suspense, it is nothing more than a firearm to hit the enemy, and then the cavalry will cover it and kill it.
The Tartars on the grassland fight against the officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty. They are never afraid of firearms. Your firearms are gone before I can get in front of me. I am afraid that you will do anything, but the side of Guihua City is close to fight, and even after rushing into the range of bows and arrows, there will be casualties and injuries. You can hide behind the big cart. You can't do anything. In addition, the other cavalry are obviously selected by various tribes. They can rush and fight, and know the tactics of the grassland.
There were many casualties in the fight, and the Chahar tribe had already suffered a lot of losses. The merchants who were traveling between the two places came from news that all the merchants in Guihua City were thinking about fighting a big fight, destroying Chahar, and having a fat New Year, and then thinking about the mobilization ability of Guihua City, the Chahar tribe was really scared.
The grassland is not as good as the Ming Dynasty. It is really a law of the jungle. If someone is strong, someone will rely on it. If it is weak, it will disappear. After this defeat, a tribe has already defected to other powerful powers. If it comes to another big battle, it will perish if it is defeated. If it wins, it will damage its vitality. It is really hard to make trouble, so it has to seek peace.
The explanation Meng Duo received in the palace was a word of stability, and he did not dare to be too aggressive. Moreover, those merchants also got the advantage, so they were convinced this time.
Not to mention the complaints from the merchants, this is actually a very respectable thing. Although the Mongolian tribe on the grassland is the most powerful, it still believes that the inheritance of the Golden Family is the real ruler. The Chahar tribe is the so-called direct inheritance of the Golden Family. The Altan tribe that dominates the grassland was only developed by Chahar Khan set up 30,000 right households.
Such tribes seek peace really proved that the Ming Dynasty was full of power and Emperor Wanli had a great success. However, after this memorial came out, Emperor Wanli and the bosses were happy, but they finally realized the fact that Guihua City has really gained a foothold on the grassland. Now Guihua City is not afraid of being adept at border quarrels, so they are counting on this wealth...
The news spread throughout the capital, and all the officials and the people were arrogant. Although it was unethical to go out to plunder and kill, it was the Ming Dynasty who went to burn and kill others. They always felt a little bit stronger and happy.
While the court was excited, the center of the court also recalled the court discussion led by Wang Tong. Everything Wang Tong said was confirmed. It was a skill to turn the tide of power in the court, but in addition to getting power, he could do the right thing and say the right truth. This was amazing.
Some people also sighed privately that if everything is like this, I am afraid that in the court, we will follow his mercy in everything in the future.
