Chapter 103 Gently Cloudy
Chapter 103 Gently Cloudy
Power is exalted, but it is also dangerous.
When you command the people of the world, the people of the world look up to you.
No one likes to be under someone else's ass, and if everyone has a butt above their head, rebellion will naturally arise.
Yun Zhao sat on top of the heads of a bunch of people and tried to sit on top of the heads of many more, which was a big problem.
He thinks he is better qualified than anyone else of his time to sit in that position, and some people who like him think so.
But the reality is not like this, and there will always be only a small number of people who support him. And it will always be a small group of people, even if it is a supporter of the Qin Emperor and Han Wu, there are only a small number of people, and most of them are silent.
Therefore, it only takes a small group of people to suppress another small group of people to successfully stabilize their rule.
Lantian County belongs to a small group of people in Yunzhao, and now, he just wants to make this small group of people who belong to him richer and stronger.
Therefore, the boundary monuments in Lantian County still need to continue to move outward.
Only this time, it can't be so blatant.
A new eunuch came to Xi'an City, named Fan Benshi, who came to replace Gao Qiqian in Beizhen, and with him came a Jinyi Wei Qianhu named Yuan Min.
King Qin was very afraid of this eunuch named Fan Benshi, and he also had great respect for the Qianhu named Yuan Min.
At the welcome banquet hosted by King Qin, Yun Zhao was a small official, so he sat outside the hall, but this position could clearly see the movements in the hall.
He had a table by himself, and there was only a simple pot of wine and two plates of dishes on the table.
When King Qin raised his glass to congratulate Fan Benshi on his ascension, all the guests stood up and raised their glasses, but Yun Zhao sat on the spot, raised his wine glass and toasted Fan Benshi from afar.
From the moment he entered this hall, Fan Benshi's gaze had never left Yun Zhao, and Yuan Min, a thousand households of the Jinyi Guard who was accompanying him, looked at Yun Zhao even more curiously.
Yun Zhao arched his hand towards the model stone, and poured himself a drink, as if there was no one around.
"The young man outside the hall, starry eyebrows, extraordinary spirit, I don't know which young hero it is?"
Fan Benshi stared at Yun Zhao and asked deliberately.
Yun Zhao smiled slightly, raised his wine glass and said, "Lantian Yun Zhao is below." ”
As soon as Yun Zhao spoke, there was silence in a huge hall, and everyone's eyes were focused on Yun Zhao's body.
Fan Benshi walked out of the hall, held a glass of wine and said, "Lord Tongzhi is really a good talent. ”
Yun Zhao smiled: "Lord Beizhen is so generous. ”
Fan Benshi smiled: "Why do you say this? ”
Yun Zhao said: "The people of Beizhen have not yet arrived in Xi'an, and all the elite soldiers of Xi'an Mansion have gone to Beijing, and Zuo Liangyu's army is patrolling outside Tongguan, and I don't know why. ”
Yun Zhao said politely, but Fan Benshi was not angry at all, and still said with a smile: "It is Your Majesty's will that Zuo Shuai came to Guanzhong. ”
Hearing Fan Benshi say this, Yun Zhao smiled and said: "Since it is His Majesty's will, the lower officials are naturally happy, but Yun heard that the military discipline of Zuo Liangyu's army was lax, and he hopes that he can restrain his command as soon as possible. ”
Fan Benshi arched his hand and said: "In this way, Zuo Shuai's army can enter Tongguan?" ”
Yun Zhao said: "Whoever dares to disobey His Majesty's will, he can enter Tongguan at any time, just don't make anything bad."
In addition, please Beizhen to bring a message to Zuo Liangyu, he doesn't have to wear three layers of heavy armor all day long, Guanzhong is a place of peace and joy, I didn't think about killing him, if I wanted to kill, it would be useless for him to get into the iron shell. ”
Fan Benshi raised his thumb and said: "Okay, Yun Tong knows that he is young and heroic, and respects His Majesty as he respects his father, so this town will give an order and order Zuo Shuai's army to enter Tongguan." ”
Yun Zhao calmed his voice, arched his hand in the direction of Chaojing Shi, and then asked Fan Benshi: "Chen Yun Zhao asked Your Majesty, is your body still healthy?" ”
Fan Benshi was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Yun Zhao to greet the emperor, and immediately knelt down in the direction of Jingshi and said seriously: "I bow down." ”
Yun Zhao asked again: "State affairs are complicated, Your Majesty has the heavy responsibility of the Ming Dynasty, please take care of your health."
Although Chen Yunzhao is not talented, he is also willing to do his best to protect the Ming Dynasty with His Majesty, so that my Ming Dynasty has a chance to prosper. ”
Fan Benshi said respectfully: "This town will send Tongzhi to the Jingshi in the starry night, and I think Your Majesty will be relieved to hear Tongzhi's words." ”
Yun Zhao thanked Fan Benshi, then glanced at the many officials standing in the hall, and said with a smile: "I can't have fun here, let's go, please feel free, other foods in Xi'an Mansion may be rougher, only the Yellow River carp, and mutton must be tasted." ”
After speaking, he left the Qin Palace, under the escort of his personal guards.
Yun Zhao left, the wine banquet in the Qin Wangfu was really much more lively, and everyone persuaded Fan Benshi to drink, even Yuan Min, a thousand households in Jinyi, was surrounded by everyone.
The banquet began at dusk and did not end until the second watch.
Fan Benshi, who returned to the Beizhen Mansion, sighed and frowned when he entered the study.
Yuan Min, who came back with him, said: "There is a tiger lying in the pass, how can the father-in-law seize power?" ”
Fan Benshi said: "The officials are towards Yunzhao, this is not important, the most important thing in the Ming Dynasty is officials, what I am worried about is that no matter how many officials come to Guanzhong, it will become the current state in less than a year."
Judging from today's appearance, Yun Zhao has begun to get impatient, just like he said in the Qin Palace, the only person he respects is His Majesty.
And this kind of respect has nothing to do with His Majesty being the emperor, only with His Majesty's diligence.
You have also seen that the prosperity of Xi'an Mansion is better than that of Yangzhou, just those who are full of people in Xi'an City, you can see the prosperity of Xi'an Mansion.
You can still see some beggars in the city, but you can't see a single idler outside the city, and they all say that the boundary monument in Lantian County has legs, which seems to be true now. “
Yuan Min said: "Order the magistrates to take back their respective borders and guard their homeland." ”
Fan Benshi spread his hands and said: "When we come to Guanzhong, the most important thing is not to deal with Yun Zhao, but how to ask for more money and food for Your Majesty from Yun Zhao."
In the past few years, the salaries, levies, and salaries have made everyone in the world dissatisfied.
This money can no longer be levied, this is already the consensus of the court, and the six ministers of the Inner Government Department are the most greedy for money at this time, and they dare not say that they will continue to send money to the world.
Today's situation is not easy to come by, Yang Sichang's method is very good, but unfortunately the consumption is too great.
The world can't bear it...... I thought that after defeating Li Hongji and subduing Zhang Bingzhong, we would be able to relax for a few days.
You see, most of the country has stabilized, and the people of Jianzhou are here again, this time it is Dolgon, the prince of Manchu Shuorui.
Liaodong is troubled again......
His Majesty sent Huaiyang Dao Counselor Zheng Eryang to Yangzhou to study military affairs.
You and Cao Gong took the prefect Panda in Yangzhou, but they did not delve into the local official affairs of Yangzhou, a huge Yangzhou, a total of 18,700 soldiers, after the actual verification, less than 2,03, and the rest of the soldiers were all paid alive......
Zheng Eryang said that Yangzhou's military affairs should not be wasted, and he was willing to retrain Yangzhou soldiers and horses on the spot, but there was no money.
If we can't get enough money for Your Majesty from Guanzhong this time, Your Majesty wants to train Yangzhou soldiers and horses, so we can only levy "training salaries" from the world again!
This is the reason why His Majesty is so tolerant of Yun Zhao.
In addition, Yun Zhao has always been mild, he did not rebel, nor did he wantonly kill officials, let alone the taxes of the dynasty.
You Jinyiwei have also found out clearly, the reason why Lantian County can have the current prosperity is very related to Yun Zhao's son.
When I came, His Majesty also said that Yun Zhao's son was just a proud person, and he could govern Lantian County, a corrupt place, in a few years with his bare hands, and he was already a teenager.
Such a person is prouder, and his temper is bigger, and His Majesty can tolerate it.
In the end, Yun Zhao is still a scholar, there is no shortage of righteousness among monarchs and ministers, you also saw it just now, he ignored the King of Qin, ignored the political envoys of Shaanxi, and ignored our family, but when it came to His Majesty, he got up and left the table and stood upright, and he also knew that he saluted His Majesty in the direction of the Beijing Division.
For Your Majesty, this is enough, as long as the situation improves, after the world is settled, a courtier like Yun Zhao will naturally bow down to His Majesty......"
A series of babbling words continued to gush out from Fan Benshi's toothless shriveled mouth, and fell on Yuan Min's ears, but they were extremely harsh.
Without waiting for Fan Benshi to finish speaking, Yuan Min roared angrily: "He whispered a word, and the ministers in the hall had to listen attentively, such a national thief, why don't you behead him?" ”
