Chapter 122: Unlucky Xiahou Heng
Yang Feng was promoted to the commander of Jiang Ningwei, so naturally some people were happy and some were worried.
As Yang Feng's business partner, Cao Dazhong is naturally secretly happy in his heart, the higher Yang Feng's official position and greater power, the stronger the cooperative relationship between him and Yang Feng, and to be honest, Yang Feng's original position of five products and thousands of households is indeed too low, Cao Dazhong can't do it even if he wants to have an equal relationship with Yang Feng.
It is true that the ancients had a saying that they would fold the knots, but this "knot" should also have a degree, if the identities and status of the two sides are too different, Cao Dazhong can't fold even if he wants to. This is just like how the secretary of the Shanghai Municipal Party Committee at the ministerial level in later generations could not be called a brother and sister to a small county magistrate at the department level.
Now Yang Feng has been promoted to the commander of the third grade, although it is still worse than Cao Dazhong, the eunuch who guards the town of Nanjing, but the status of the two sides is at least not so different, to put it mildly, that is, Yang Feng now has the qualifications to talk to Cao Dazhong, if you add more than 1,000 elite soldiers in Yang Feng's hands, it will be even more of a plus.
Cao Dazhong was happy, but Xu Hongji, who was the Duke of Wei, was unhappy. Originally, Yang Feng was like an ant in his eyes, belonging to the kind of existence that could be trampled to death at any time, and the reason why one did not move him was because behind Yang Feng stood Cao Dazhong, and behind Cao Dazhong stood the nine-thousand-year-old Wei Gonggong who leaned towards the government and the opposition.
However, although he couldn't be moved openly, Xu Hongji still teamed up with Liao Yongquan, the secretary of the Nanjing Military Department, to use a trick to transfer Yang Feng to Zhenjiang Mansion to exterminate the Japanese Invaders, and wanted to use the hands of the Japanese Invaders to destroy this annoying guy. It's just that things in the world are so unexpected, Yang Feng went to Zhenjiang Mansion for a walk, not only was he not killed by the Japanese Invaders, but he relieved the siege of Zhenjiang Mansion and completely annihilated the Japanese Invaders.
When the news reached the capital, the emperor of Longyan Dayue actually promoted him to the commander of Jiang Ningwei, and after hearing the news, Xu Hongji only felt 10,000 *** rushing in his heart.
Although Xu Hongji is the Duke of Wei and the garrison of Nanjing, there are thousands of battalions under his hands, but in the final analysis, he can only make himself majestic in Nanjing, once he gets out of Nanjing and involves the guard, he will be invincible, which is why he wanted to design Yang Feng last time and had to pull Liao Yongquan, the secretary of the Nanjing Military Department. And this time, after Yang Feng was promoted to Jiang Ningwei's commander, it was much more difficult to deal with him.
That's it, now he has more upsetting things to deal with waiting for him to deal with, looking at this guy who knelt in front of him and cried bitterly, Xu Hongji felt upset.
"Grandpa Guo, Lord Liao, the lower official really doesn't want to go to Fengyang, and the lower official has never done anything to be sorry for the two of you, but now he was suddenly removed from the position of commander, and the lower official is not convinced!"
In the study room of the Duke of Wei's mansion, Xu Hongji, the Duke of Wei, Liao Yongquan, the secretary of the Nanjing Military Department, and Zhang Weixian, the British Minister, sat on their seats, and in the middle of them was Xiahou Heng, the commander of Jiang Ningwei, who knelt down and came from Jiangning to cry.
Xiahou Heng felt that he was really a person who was in trouble at home from the sky, and he was his own emperor of the soil behind closed doors in Jiangning, and he went to the street every day to tease the big girl and little daughter-in-law, and when he went home, he did some things that men love to do with his seven or eight concubines, but this comfortable day is coming to an end. The day before yesterday, after receiving the text sent by the military department in the capital, he felt like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, and the whole person was stunned, and he was actually removed from the post of commander and transferred to Fengyang as a deputy garrison.
On the surface, this transfer seems to be promoted, Fengyang is the land of Longxing after all, and the position of deputy garrison also seems to be a high authority, but in fact, the officials of the Ming Dynasty don't know that Fengyang is a big cage, and if the father-in-law in the palace loses power or is disgusted by the emperor, there is a chance that he will be transferred to Fengyang to see the imperial mausoleum, so that Xiahou Heng, who is used to the life of Jiangning and Nanjing Huahua World, let him go to Fengyang as a deputy guard, that is, let him go to prison.
As soon as he thought of this, Xiahou Heng couldn't help but feel sad, and tears couldn't help but gush out.
Looking at Xiahou Heng, who was kneeling in front of him and crying with tears and snot, Xu Hongji only felt a burst of upset. He was not only angry with Yang Feng, a guy who would only make trouble for him, but also angry at Xiahou Heng's incompetence, he was just transferred to Fengyang, and he didn't let him go to the execution ground, why did he cry like this.
However, despite the unhappiness in his heart, Xu Hongji still patiently comforted: "Commander Xiahou, we have just learned about your transfer to Fengyang, since this matter has been issued to you, then it cannot be changed, so the only thing you can do now is to obey the order of the imperial court and immediately rush to Fengyang to take office."
But you don't have to worry, the palace and the British Duke and Lord Liao will not sit idly by and ignore your affairs. Although Fengyang is relatively remote, you only need to rest there for a while, and when you have the opportunity, this palace and Lord Liao will transfer you back from Fengyang. At that time, Jiang Ningwei's position as the commander will still be yours. ”
"Or mine?"
Xiahou Heng immediately stopped crying, looked at Xu Hongji with a pair of red and swollen eyes that were crying, and said in disbelief: "Grandpa Guo, is this true?" ”
"Nonsense, do you think my father-in-law will coax you to play if you have nothing to do?" Xu Hongji snorted coldly: "The reason why Yang Feng is so rampant is just because of Cao Dazhong's momentum, but Cao Dazhong can't stay in Nanjing all the time, the errand of guarding the eunuch in Nanjing is rotated every five years, if my father is not mistaken, Cao Dazhong will arrive in Nanjing in the first year of the Apocalypse, as long as Cao Dazhong leaves Nanjing, then Yang Feng will be a third-grade commander at that time, and the official will not pinch the circle if he wants to, and rub the flat if he wants to?" ”
Speaking of this, a glimmer of history flashed in Xu Hongji's eyes. Originally, the conflict between him and Yang Feng was only because of money, but now after continuous confrontation and fermentation, the hatred between the two sides has become deeper and deeper, and it is difficult to reconcile even if they want to.
At this time, Zhang Weixian, the British prince on the side, smiled on the side: "Grandpa Xu, don't forget, after Yang Feng served as the commander of Jiang Ningwei, their food and salary replenishment will be completely controlled by the military department. ”
"Right...... That's it. Xu Hongji's eyes lit up, "Previously, when we stuck the food and salary of thousands of households in Jiangdong Gate, Yang Feng could also use his own silver to subsidize, but now that he is the commander of Jiang Ningwei, tens of thousands of people in the entire guard will have to eat, and this father will see if he can feed so many poor military households on his own." Once there is no food, those poor military households and thousands of households will definitely make trouble, and once there is a mess or even a mutiny, the court will definitely investigate it, and this prince will see how many heads he has enough to cut off. ”
Speaking of this, everyone looked at each other and laughed......
