Brother, the younger brother is really convinced of the sister-in-law's means now. According to the new regulations within Jinghua, Gao Shiqin, the general of the six towns of Annan, who "took turns to report on his work", was talking about Huang Zhiting's ability in Siam in front of his eldest brother with a sigh on his face.

"I don't know if my brother has taken a closer look at the "Jinghua Nineteen Articles", it is really more ruthless than the "Jinghua Sixteen Articles". In your words, brother, it's a 'power-up version'! Don't hide it from the elder brother, the younger brother was in Jingang at the time, and when he got the text of the treaty, he was stunned - do you say that this Siamese kingdom still exists now? ”

Gao Pragmatic still didn't have any arrogance in front of his third brother-in-law, and said with a smile: "I have handed over the affairs of Southern Xinjiang to your sister-in-law to deal with, and I sent a copy of the text, but your sister-in-law has not officially written to explain it, so I haven't read it carefully." Now that you've seen it, you're still so shocked, why don't you analyze it for the foolish brother and see how it works? ”

"Done!" Gao Shiqin was really interested, took out a piece of Chen from his arms, opened it, walked to Gao Pragmatic's side, and while bowing down and showing it to Gao Pragmatic, he pointed to the words on it to explain.

"This "Nineteen Articles" must be based on the "Sixteen Articles", needless to say, just look at the beginning of this to know that it is almost not easy to say a word."

Gao pragmatic nodded lightly: "Yes." ”

"However, this first article has already shown the power of the 'enhanced version', and the first article of the original "Sixteen Articles" reads: 'The Annan Metropolitan Government promises that from the date of the signing of this treaty, the Jinghua Group will become the policy advisory group of the Annan Metropolitan Administration, and the Annan Metropolitan Government will send personnel to participate in and provide guidance in response to the military and civilian governments.'"

In addition to changing the Annan Metropolitan Department to the Kingdom of Siam, the sister-in-law's "Nineteen Articles" copied this sentence as a whole, but the sister-in-law added another sentence after this sentence: The guidance put forward by the Kingdom of Siam on the Jinghua Group will be fully respected and implemented. ”

Gao Wuqin stretched out his hand and flicked the Chen, and said excitedly: "This is amazing, because in Annan, Jinghua's 'guiding opinions' can still be rejected by the Metropolitan Department in theory, but in the future, this situation will not exist in Siam." ”

Gao pragmatic smiled and nodded: "It seems to mean so." ”

The first explanation was affirmed by the eldest brother, and Gao Wuqin was more interested, but his face was much more serious, and he said: "The second, third, and fourth articles, the younger brother thinks, are the finishing touches of this new treaty. ”

"Oh? How to put the finishing touch? ”

Gao Wuqin said: "Brother, please see, these three articles are actually about the same thing, that is, about the appointment of the vice king of Siam, that is, the crown prince. ”

His face became more and more serious, and he said: "My brother also knows that the root cause of this chaos in Siam lies in Na Li Xuan, who was defeated and killed before, and Na Li Xuan is the vice king of Siam. His death directly led to the political instability in Siam, and then a rebellion without the direct threat of the army, and now the sister-in-law has simply blocked this door! ”

"Brother, look at the second article, 'The Kingdom of Siam has promised that the King of the Kingdom must inform the Jinghua Group and reach agreement with the Jinghua Group before appointing the Vice-Crown Prince' - then we don't have to worry about another Na Li Xuan, a Siamese Vice-King who is against us.

But that's not safe enough, because what if we can't reach agreement? So the sister-in-law added in the next article: 'The Kingdom of Siam promises that if the appointment of the vice king is not understood and approved in writing by Jinghua Group, the appointment will be invalid. The Kingdom of Siam may choose to present its reasons to the King's Group, and the King's designated object shall send a special investigation team or negotiation team to consult and negotiate with the King or the King's designated object within one year of receiving the appeal. That's where it gets interesting. ”

Gao pragmatically smiled: "What's interesting?" ”

"This 'interesting' has two levels. First, the younger brother thinks that according to this provision, the King of Siam has actually lost the power to appoint the vice-king, because his designation is invalid as long as it is not approved by my Jinghua. Second, this investigation and consultation is also very interesting, it seems that we have given the King of Siam a chance, but in fact...... Ahem, if you look at Article 4 of the treaty, you will know that if the King of Siam really thinks that he has the opportunity to plead, he must be a fool. ”

Gao Pragmatic raised his eyebrows slightly: "Really?" ”

"Of course, brother, what do you say, what does this third article say?" The Kingdom of Siam promised that in the event that the Vice-King's nomination appeal was ultimately not understood by Jinghua Group, His Majesty the King would voluntarily transfer the right to designate the Vice-King's candidate to Jinghua Group in order to ensure that the friendship between the two parties was unbreakable, and promised to give full support to the Vice-King's candidate appointed by Jinghua Group. ’

Ha, this article is simply a dagger, around the boss in a circle, the final decision is still in the hands of Jinghua, once Jinghua insists on not recognizing the vice king designated by the King of Siam, then the King of Siam will automatically give the right to designate to Jinghua! In other words, these three rules are actually just one sentence: the future vice king of Siam will be designated by me Jinghua!

If the king of Siam knows each other and appoints the vice king according to our meaning, then everyone can also use a sedan chair to carry people, hello, hello, hello, everyone; But if he doesn't know the King of Siam, then I'm sorry, I'm always up to Jinghua in this matter, but the face of your King of Siam will be ugly at that time. ”

Gao pragmatically smiled and nodded, and asked again: "So, why do you think your sister-in-law has used three articles to stipulate this authority?" Or, why do you think your sister-in-law has to get this permission? ”

Gao Wuqin was stunned for a moment when asked, and said in amazement: "Didn't the little brother say it just now?" In order to avoid the emergence of another Na Li Xuan in the future, a Siamese vice king who does not deal with our Jinghua. ”

"That's all?" Gao Pragmatic raised his eyebrows slightly and asked lightly.

Look at what the eldest brother means, it seems that the sister-in-law must not only take this into account when doing this?

Gao Wuqin's eyes rolled, hesitated for a moment, and said tentatively: "Is it to ensure that we can firmly control the next King of Siam?" ”

Gao Shishi still said lightly: "Maybe it means, but let me ask you, even if the next King of Siam has countless ideas of his own, after the signing of this treaty, when the Siamese royal family has lost the right to control the national army, can he really threaten the authority of Jinghua?" ”

"Well, it seems like it can't." Gao Shiqin frowned deeply and muttered, "Without the army in hand, who will listen to him?" …… If you want to create a rebellion in Jinghua, the fate of the Siamese three-way rebels this time can be described as a lesson from the past. The elder brother should have received a report that the total number of rebels in the three routes at that time was more than 100,000, and the total strength of each family was 500,000, and there were many Siamese families and even Theravada Buddhist monks behind it, and even Cambodians were involved.

But even with such strength, it was easily broken by the sister-in-law one by one. In that case, who can the future King of Siam call on just by saving face? ”

Gao was pragmatic but didn't speak, just quietly picked up the teacup and took a sip.

"Brother." Gao Wuqin thought for a while, but still didn't understand what else was in it, and couldn't help but ask for advice: "The younger brother can't think of it, please ask the elder brother for guidance." ”

Who knew that the eldest brother who was willing to instruct his younger brothers and sisters would refuse to instruct this time, Gao Pragmatic shook his head slightly: "If you can't think of it, think about it slowly, if you still can't think of it, then you don't have to think about it." ”

This seemed to be a little inexplicable, Gao Shiqin was confused when he heard it, and said secretly: Then do I want to do it?

He was about to continue to ask, but he said pragmatically and half-jokingly: "You have just arrived in Beijing today, and you must be tired, so why don't you go take a bath and take a nap." Brother Fool has already prepared a reception dinner for you, and when the time comes, a few of your brothers and brothers in Beijing will come, don't be depressed, and make people think that I, the elder brother, have made you a cow and a horse. ”

Although this was said kindly, Gao Wuqin knew that the eldest brother's words could not be refused, not to mention that with the eldest brother's current status and financial resources, he could not refuse, even if the eldest brother was just an ordinary person, but since his father was not there, what the eldest brother said was not his share of refusal, so he had to get up and thank him and leave.

Gao Mo, who was standing next to him like a stake and listened to what their brother had been talking for a long time, spoke up at this time: "Master, the little one is going to show the third master the way, right?" ”

Gao pragmatic didn't speak, got up and went upstairs.

Gao Mo smiled silently, sighed and shook his head slightly, and turned to find Gao Wuqin.

Of course, Gao Wuqin outside the door was not blind by himself, of course he had the Gao family to lead him to take a bath and rest, and when he saw Gao Mo chasing after him, he was a little surprised: "Why is Uncle Mo here?" ”

Strictly speaking, Gao Mo is just Gao Pragmatic's personal butler Ding, but he is obviously also the most important subordinate around Gao Pragmatic, so his status in the Gao family is very special, so special that even Gao Pragmatic's third brother has to be called "Uncle Mo" when he sees him, and he dare not slack off.

"The third master is polite." Gao Mo waved his hand, asking the two family members who led the way to step back first, and personally stepped forward to lead the way.

"This, how does this make ......" Gao Zhiqin was a little caught off guard and looked flattered - he really wasn't a fake, because Gao Mo was in charge of the Jinghua Ministry of Internal Affairs, and this Ministry of Internal Affairs was regarded by many people as a combination of factories and health in the Jinghua system, and it also included the functions of the Metropolitan Procuratorate.

It can be said that in addition to Gao Pragmatic himself, whoever sees Gao Mo in Jinghua, even if he has a clear conscience, can't help but be a little nervous - if someone makes a "mistake in the investigation" and gives you the whole suspicion, it will be a big trouble.

Although Gao Shiqin is Gao Shishi's younger brother and is not very old, he also knows that his position is quite important in the Jinghua system. I don't know how many people think that his qualifications, prestige, and even ability may not be enough to be the commander of such an important Six Towns, and he is just relying on his bloodline to occupy this position. Therefore, Gao Mo came here, he thought that he was not doing well, and the eldest brother asked Uncle Mo to come to him in person to "talk", and he was quite uneasy.

"The master said that the third master did a good job in Annan, better than he originally expected, at least he didn't make any mistakes." Gao Mo also saw his uneasiness, first explained it, and said half-jokingly: "The master said that he originally thought that the third master would cause him some small troubles, and he was even ready to help the third master deal with the aftermath, hehe...... But it turned out that the performance of the third master still exceeded expectations, and the master was more satisfied. ”

Gao Mo's words are mostly true, because Gao Shiji's expectations for Gao Shiqin before were indeed very low, and Gao Shiqin's performance was ...... In Gao Mo's words, "at least I didn't make any mistakes", and I was probably okay.

As for "relatively satisfied", that was Gao Mo's words of comfort, Gao Shishi didn't say this. Gao pragmatic's original words are: "No merit and no fault, make do".

When Gao Shiqin heard this, he was very relieved, and hurriedly said: "Thank you Uncle Mo for your kind words in front of my brother, I can stay for about ten days and a half when I return to Beijing to report on my work this time, and when I am free, I must invite Uncle Mo to drink." ”

He didn't know if there were any good words, but he knew that he had to say so. Gao Shiqin has been in Annan for two or three years, and it seems that he has not been in vain, and he has really made a lot of progress.

Gao Mo didn't respond to his polite words, but cut straight to the point, and said, "By the way, Third Master, didn't you really think about why Madame spent so much effort on the designation of the Vice King of Siam?" ”

Gao Shiqin's heart was full of astonishment, and he said secretly: I only cared about the situation in Siam because I felt that my sister-in-law's methods were not at all like a woman. But in the final analysis, I am the governor of the six towns of Annam, and I can't care about Siam's affairs, why am I thinking about this stubble so carefully? Wait a minute...... What is the mystery of this matter, I can let Uncle Mo ask me personally?

His mind was a little confused, and he was surprised in his heart: It is impossible for me to be the vice king of Siam, right?

But thinking about it carefully, he himself denied it first: impossible, looking at the plan made by the eldest brother for the southern city, you can know that this Siam should be a place that the eldest brother values very much. Otherwise, it is just a small broken fishing village, and it does not have such a good large-scale natural haven like Jingang, it is just an ordinary estuary port.

I have been slandered by I don't know how many people as the commander of the six towns, let me be the vice king of Siam, even if the eldest brother is willing, I don't dare to go, this must not be ridiculed by people? Besides, the eldest brother is not the only brother of mine, how can anything good come to me?

He pondered for a long time, but he didn't even realize that he had already walked to the guest building arranged for him by Gao Pragmatic, and stood at the door for a long time, still puzzled, so he had to smile bitterly: "Uncle Mo, I won't tell you, the matter of the Six Towns alone has already made me anxious." Especially the newly won three towns of Huaying, Longpan and Zhancheng, it is really a lot of trouble...... I really didn't think much about the Vice-King of Siam. If you have any advice, you may as well say it clearly, and I will listen to it. ”

Gao Mo sighed slightly in his heart, but this matter is very necessary to talk to Gao Wuqin, the nominal second master of the sixth room (the actual second master is Gao Wuguan, but he has passed on to Gao Gong), but this matter cannot be said clearly.

He coughed lightly, squeezed out a smile, and said, "Where does the old slave have any guidance, but he suddenly remembered something." ”

Gao Shiqin hurriedly asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Gao Mo smiled kindly: "I heard that Madame is already happy." ”

"Huh?" Gao was stunned.

But Gao Mo suddenly looked at the sky and slapped his forehead: "Oh, it's easy to forget things when you're old, and I'm afraid that the master will rush back to the military department again...... The old slave went to prepare the car for the old man first, and the third master asked himself to have a good rest, and the old slave said goodbye. ”

"Ah, ah, good, good...... Uncle Mo, you are busy first, you are busy first. The confused Gao Shiqin replied hurriedly.
