Letting Huang Zhiting temporarily take charge of state affairs was not a high pragmatism on a whim, in fact, he had such an idea long before he sent troops. The biggest advantage of Huang Zhiting's temporary residence in the state affairs of Siming Prefecture is naturally that she has the closest personal relationship with her, but the more fundamental reason is her correct understanding of the relationship between Tusi and the imperial court.

An overly ambitious Tusi must not be a highly pragmatic choice, he just needs to use the power of Tusi to drive away the tiger and the wolf, and then achieve the same effect as Mu Yingshi Town Yunnan in Annan, and he does not intend to push Tusi out to become a country of his own, so a Tusi ruler like Huang Zhiting who insists on avoiding serious confrontation with the imperial court is the most in line with his expectations.

What's more, judging from Huang Zhiting's attitude today, Gao Pragmatic feels that she has a good impression of herself, and she should really regard herself as a friend - I hope it's not self-inflicted.

However, recalling Huang Zhiting's previous exaggerated acting skills, Gao Pragmatic felt that her performance today was unlikely to be pretended. Although there is a saying in later generations that "women are born actors", being born does not mean genius, and he does not believe that Huang Zhiting's acting skills have improved so rapidly.

It is not difficult to convince Huang Zhiting, after all, this is a good thing that is very beneficial to the Huang family, as long as she believes that she will be fine if she does this.

After persuading Huang Zhiting, Gao Pragmatic ordered someone to call Cen Ling and talk to him about Sicheng Prefecture.

Cen Ling expected that Gao Pragmatic would meet him after the war to discuss getting rid of Huang Ma, but he didn't expect Gao Pragmatic to be so anxious, and he had just settled Simingzhou and began to think about Sicheng.

He was a little skeptical that Gao Shishi planned to take advantage of this opportunity to directly lead his troops to Sicheng, deal with the problem of Huang Ma first, and then return to Guilin with the division.

However, after listening to his doubts, Gao Pragmatic made it clear that there was no such thing, because he had already planned to let the army be a teacher. Cen Ling listened, and then he was relieved.

In fact, Gao Pragmatic really considered directly leading the army to fight over, but there were two problems that could not be solved, one was that if he did this, his promise to help Cen Ling keep it secret would not be fulfilled; Second, Guangxi's finances are too poor, and this army of more than 10,000 yuan spent nearly 10,000 taels of silver at once just because of Gao Shishi's order to give a reward.

In fact, this is not true, Guangxi's finances have actually been bankrupt a long time ago, and now not only is there more than 70,000 taels of arrears over the years, but also Guangdong subsidies are needed every month to maintain it.

If it weren't for the Pingbazhai Rebellion last year, Liu Yaozhi allocated a batch of sea salt produced in Lianzhou from Guangdong to Guangxi and sold it himself, and it is estimated that Guangxi's treasury would have starved to death by now.

Gao Pragmatic himself does have money, and he doesn't even mind spending some money to make the current situation better, but this kind of thing can't be done, and it's taboo.

"Eating the imperial grain" is a matter of course, but if there is no imperial grain to eat, but instead of eating the grain of your Gao Xun, then who are we working for?

Giving to the displaced people is a kind and generous charity, but giving to the army is a bad intention.

Therefore, even if the army of the official army is now a complete merit, it can be ended quickly, and if you spend some more time outside, you will not be rewarded when you go back, and you will have to mutiny.

"I originally planned to take only the family and the guard of honor to accompany you to Sicheng Prefecture." Gao Pragmatic smiled slightly: "In your opinion, since Huang Ma dares to put your brother under house arrest, will he also have the courage to detain me?" ”

Cen Ling was a little incredulous, and cautiously persuaded: "According to the stage, the lower officials think that this matter needs to be thought twice, that Huang Ma is quite unreasonable, especially in the past few years, he has been used to acting in Lingyun City, I am afraid that there is not much reason left, in case it is ......"

Gao pragmatic asked, "If I want to go to Lingyun City to inspect, will he dare to stop me?" ”

"This ......" Cen Ling frowned slightly and thought for a while, and said: "Generally speaking, none of the previous Guangxi patrols, at least within the number of years known to the lower officials, went to Lingyun City to inspect. However, of course, the press has the power to patrol, and although Huang Ma is bold, he should not be so rampant as to prevent the patrol from entering the city - especially since the press has just won a bloodless victory in Siming Prefecture, Huang Ma should also be worried about setting himself on fire. ”

You simply said that Huang Ma was worried that Lao Tzu was inflated, and he didn't take him seriously, in case he was blocked, he sent troops to attack Sicheng Prefecture in a fit of anger.

Obviously, it sounded like this guy named Huang Ma was inflated by himself......

However, Gao Pragmatic didn't bother to break it, just smiled and said, "As long as he doesn't dare to stop Ben from entering the city." ”

Cen Ling's eyes rolled, and he pondered: "The family under the command of the press is indeed elite, but after all, the number of people is too small, there are only about three hundred people, even if they enter Lingyun City...... That Huang Ma has been operating in Lingyun City for many years, although the number of troops is only two or three thousand, but this is already ten times the number of troops, and the lower officials are worried that once there is a difference, there will be no room for relaxation. ”

Gao Shishi raised his eyebrows slightly and asked, "Are the other people in Lingyun City like Huang Ma?" I mean, they all had a lifelong friendship with Huang Ma, and they were willing to stick a knife in Huang Ma's ribs at any time? ”

"That's certainly not going to happen." Cen Ling shook his head and said: "Huang Ma was originally just one of the Tumu in Lingyun City, but he was slightly better by virtue of his strength, and he was the head of the Tumu who defended the city back then, and later he was put under house arrest because of his audacity, and the others were either bogeyed or coerced and lured by him, and finally tied up with him, but to say that they are all completely of the same mind as Huang Ma, Xia Guan will never believe it." ”

"That's not it." Gao pragmatic smiled: "As long as they are not completely one-minded, there is a way to think about things." Besides, Ben Ji didn't think Huang Ma dared to do anything out of the ordinary against Ben Press, because Ben Press was completely different from Brother Ling. ”

Cen Ling didn't know where Gao Pragmatic got such confidence, but he still cooperated: "Please also give me advice." ”

Gao pragmatic said: "Brother Ling is the Tusi of Sicheng Prefecture, to a certain extent, as long as the court does not interfere, he is the king of Sicheng - that means that as long as Huang Ma controls Brother Ling, the people under Brother Ling, including you, will be jealous, and no one dares to act rashly."

At least, before Huang Ma made it clear that he wanted to usurp power, there would be no rash moves, because no matter what, Huang Ma was always acting under the sign of Brother Ling. The entire Tusi in Guixi and Guinan have always regarded Huang Ma as Brother Ling's confidant, which is proof of this. ”

Gao Pragmatic paused slightly, showed a confident smile, and said: "This press is different, there are more than 100 imperial historians in the imperial court, no matter which one can replace this press at any time, even if this press is in the fall of Lingyun City, what is the big deal for the imperial court?"

If Huang Ma really dares to be disrespectful to Ben, the only effect is to provoke the imperial court, then he will inevitably be hit by the thunderous blow of the imperial court...... Do you think he has the guts? ”

"That's the truth." Cen Ling frowned, still a little uneasy: "I'm afraid that something will happen after entering the city according to the platform, that Huang Ma is a thief after all, in case a certain sentence or even a certain look of the press is misunderstood by him, it may cause him to take risks, and the lower officials still feel that it is a little dangerous to do so." Between the following officials, you might as well rush to Qingyuan Mansion according to the platform, and then summon the people in charge of the Tusi in Guixi to go to see it, so as long as Huang Ma dares to go, killing him according to the platform is like killing a dog, so why take such a risk to go to Lingyun City? ”

Gao pragmatic shook his head and said: "As far as I know, in the past few years, whenever there is such a thing as what you just said, the representative of Sicheng is your seventh son Cen Qigongzi, if this press also does the same, Huang Ma will definitely let you go to Qingyuan Mansion in the name of Brother Ling, won't we be busy in vain at that time?" Again...... Forget it, that's it. ”

Gao pragmatic "say more" did not finish, in fact, the reason is very simple, his time is very tight, now that the Huang family's affairs are basically settled, he must quickly solve the problem of the Cen family, so as to concentrate the strength of the two families to contribute to his big plan.
