Chapter 338: Making Decisions Is Not Just About Pat Your Head

At dawn, an archer belonging to the county horse bow team came to Gao Fangping to report. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

This person was the person who was sent out before, brought Gao Fangping's handwritten letter to Bozhou City for help, and explained the situation by the way.

"What's the situation, how many days will the Bozhou Xiang Army arrive?" Gao Fangping asked with concern.

This poor person gasped and took a few mouthfuls, and then shook his head breathlessly and said: "Back to the acting county zun, Lord Zhizhou said, because of Gao Lian's private messing with politics, allowing the fugitives to gather, this has caused the instability of the entire Bozhou, and now outside Bozhou City, you can also see a lot of mountain people who are extremely active, and Lord Zhizhou said that Gao Lian does not listen to persuasion, and he will eat the consequences, and even the whole Bozhou will be unstable......

Gao Fangping interrupted coldly: "Put away the nonsense, Lao Tzu doesn't have time to listen to the mutual shirking of responsibility between bureaucrats now, I am asking, how many days will the Bozhou Xiang Army arrive!" It's a simple question. ”

The messenger was so frightened that he knelt on the ground and said in a low voice: "The Xiang army can't come, Lord Zhizhou, he refuses to send troops." ”

Gao Fangping narrowed his eyes and pondered for a moment, then asked, "The reason for refusing to send troops?" ”

The messenger knew the temper of the Great Demon King, and said simply and clearly: "Lord Zhizhou said that the wandering mountain people are extremely active, and it may be unfavorable to Bozhou City, and the limited force of the Xiang army must concentrate on defending Bozhou City." ”

Gao Fangping frowned, but since Lord Zhizhou threw out this reason, he basically got rid of it.

Gao Fangping asked again: "Does Bozhou have any instructions on the current situation in Gaotang?" ”

"No instructions." The messenger shook his head and said, "Lord Zhizhou said that since there is a magistrate, it is necessary for the parents to act cheaply according to local conditions." If you really can't do anything, you can act as the county magistrate Gao Fangping and ask for help from Yongjing Army. ”

Gao Fangping was stunned and said, "He's drunk, isn't he?" The Yongjing Army is far away in Texas, and it is not a high-mobility cavalry unit, since it can ask for help across the state, why not ask the Jeju Yongle Army for help? ”

"Lord Zhizhou said, the reputation of the Yongle Army is too bad, the anger is too heavy, from a military point of view, the Yongjing Army is a little closer. From a security point of view, the reputation of the Yongjing Army is better than that of the Yongle Army. He also specially summoned the big merchants, tycoons, and gentry of Bozhou to solicit opinions, and those of them unanimously disagreed with the Yongle Army's entry into Bozhou. It is said that the Yongle Army is a mad bandit soldier, who will rob Bozhou of his wealth accumulation for many years, and will make Bozhou suffer a military disaster. Poor embarrassed words.

"Okay, the county knows. You take a break for two hours, and then join the team on duty. Gao Fangping didn't say much and said comfortingly.

"There is such an inactive Zhizhou parent official, you have to settle accounts with him in the future!" Liang Hongying said viciously beside her.

Gao Fangping shook his head and sighed: "This account really can't be calculated, first, he has a reason." Second, the surname of this Zhizhou lord in Bozhou is Cai, and he is the eldest son of Cai Jing, the prime minister of the dynasty, Cai You, or one of the emperor's favorite ministers, how can we settle accounts with him? ”

Liang Hongying's eyes were a little red when she heard this, and said that Sister Liang was dissatisfied with the Mengzhou old man who often blackmailed Gao Fangping, and was also dissatisfied with Shi Wenbin's gentle character. Now I know that in fact, as a common people, being able to rule under Lao Chang and Lao Shi is really a good baby, and that is really a kind of happiness.

After thinking about it, Liang Hongying comforted herself again and said on the bright side: "Fortunately, Cai Zhizhou recognized your temporary command in Gaotang and did not cause chaos. ”

Gao Fangping sneered: "Of course he will approve, even if I don't command, he will also order me to command." According to the rules, the one who commands at this time is the one who throws it out and carries the blame, who else can he use besides me? The judges under him are more treacherous than ghosts, and at this time, let them come to Gaotang to preside over the overall situation, and they will definitely report the illness as soon as possible. ”

"Your circle is really messy." Liang Hongying said.

In fact, Gao Fangping was not too angry, he knew earlier that it was Cai Youzhi Bozhou, and he knew that he would get this result. But according to the procedure, Gao Fangping still had to make an appearance and report the situation to Bozhou City as soon as possible. This is the basic rule, so as not to buckle down a bunch of hats of all kinds of unauthorized and reckless actions in the future.

In history, Cai You, a traitor, is not a good thing, but in view of his limited prestige, the harm is naturally not as great as that of his father.

Cai You is also a favorite of Zhao Ji, and he is considered to have risen in the same group as Wang Hao, according to history, at some point in the future, Cai You will be in charge of the Privy Council.

Historically, this thing had no intention of government affairs all day long, and especially liked to mutter about the magic of Taoist priests around the emperor. He also likes to be a director and choreograph some vulgar small movies for the emperor to see. Yes, in general, Cai You is so competitive for favor, and his means are extremely inferior. is also because Queen Xiangong died early, otherwise the queen would have to knock this thing to death with a brick.

The most bizarre thing is that Cai You is a very thoughtful person in this era, he specializes in working against his father Cai Jing, and competes with Cai Jing for favor, after taking power, Xiao Cai also likes to slander and instigate the emperor to kill his own brother, the reason is that Cai Jing, a heartless father, does not care about him Cai You, only his younger brother. Damn, no matter how faint Zhao Ji is, of course he will not agree to such an unreasonable request.

Overall, if Cai Jing is considered a traitor, then Cai You, the eldest son of Lao Cai, should be regarded as a villain.

Earlier, Gao Fangping was prepared with both hands, and more or less pinned some hopes on Cai You, the reason was that he and his father did not deal with each other, and he Xiao Cai might ignore political pressure and send troops to Gao Tang.

However, Gao Fangping finally looked down on this fool.

It's not that he doesn't send troops because of political reasons, he Cai You really doesn't send troops because of stupidity, and he is a typical dumb official.

Gao Fangping believed that what he said about the unusually active exiles in Bozhou was true, but he could also think with his toes that those people were gathering in Gaotang when they heard the wind, and they would not pay attention to Bozhou City. Even if he is bold enough to fight the thieves in Liangshan, in fact, he generally does not dare to fight the state capital.

In terms of the defense strength and scale of the state city, there is no need for a garrison at all, and there are hundreds of people sent by the state government and a moat, so there is no problem at all in defending against 10,000 or 20,000 unequipped homeless people. It is for this reason that Zong Ze dared to gather tens of thousands of escapees in Jingzhao Mansion.

However, there are no surprises, some small groups of passers-by can scare Cai You. Gao Fangping really couldn't understand that he would one day become the deputy envoy of Xuanfu with such a good look, as Tong Guan's assistant, he sent troops to Yanyun together, and Guo Yaoshi's goods were thrown into Song, and the credit was counted on Xiao Cai's head, so Xiao Cai worshiped the privy envoy......

Three days ago. In a study room of the Beijing Left-behind Division.

Liang Zhongshu's previous elegance was gone, and he always frowned, his fingers rhythmically tapping on the table, thinking.

On the table, there were two letters sent by Gao Fangping's people. One is a document stating that the situation in the Tang Dynasty is critical and then asking for an order, and the other is a document given by the imperial court to Gao Fangping and Jin Shidengdi.

At that time, when he heard that Gao Fangping was given the same jinshi, Lao Liang was surprised and delighted. Lao Liang is not blind, Gao Fangping's ability and political combat power are very strong, and he was not optimistic about him at the beginning, because Liang Zhongshu knew that he would never be able to take the test. So at that time, Lao Liang also persuaded Xiao Gao to study more and not to waste his talents.

And now that kid doesn't have to study, he doesn't have to take exams, he already has such a pedigree. Then there is basically no need to think about it, in terms of that kid's ability, it is only a matter of time before he pays homage to the prime minister, and he will log in to Qingyun in twenty years at the latest, and from here, his daughter has long been in love with that kid. My Lao Liang's daughter is going to get married, is there anything more suitable for the dynasty besides the calf?

Therefore, in the document sent by Gao Fangping, the sentence "On the occasion of the roll call of Donghuamen, the Gao family proposed marriage to the Liang family", which has a deep attraction to political speculators like Lao Liang and the old fox of officialdom.

"Why didn't my father give the order for a long time and put Gao Fangping's herald aside?" The beautiful Liang Xiwen ran over and said anxiously: "Gao Fangping, that bad boy, although he likes to exaggerate, but his daughter also found out, and what he said usually comes true." Since he violated many rules and sent someone to Bei 1 Beijing to ask you for help, it must be a hundred thousand in a hurry. Father, don't you care about the poor people of Gaotang? ”

Liang Zhongshu said bitterly: "What do you know about your daughter's family." It's not that I don't care about the people, it's just that from my standpoint, I'm more worried about the political risks behind it. Xiao Gao is a ruthless hooligan, once the order of my Left-behind Division is issued, my Left-behind Division is responsible, do you understand? If he uses the old man's orders to do something crazy, then it's over. ”

"What can be anything crazy, doesn't he like to rob and kill?" Liang Xiwen said curiously.

"You, ......" Liang Zhongshu was almost angry, and pointed at her for a long time before saying: "Robbery and murder are not considered madness?" How did you come to be this value? How the hell have you been brainwashed by him? ”

Liang Xiwen thought for a while and said, "Actually, to put it bluntly, you are careful that after approving him to send troops, you will offend Grandpa Cai Jing for this." ”

"That's just one of them." Liang Zhongshu twisted his beard and muttered: "If it is approved, it will definitely offend Cai Xiang." But frankly speaking, today, the old man doesn't have to look at your grandfather's face to do things. In comparison, Gao Fangping is a big hornet that must be repaid for flaws, to a certain extent, the old man would rather offend Cai Xiang than offend Xiao Gao, a future cutting-edge magnate. ”

Liang Xiwen paused, and asked: "Since this is the case, and it is related to the safety of the people of Limin, what is my father hesitating about?" ”

"Gao Tang has a descendant of the Chai family, and they don't deal with the Gao family, it's not a matter of a day or two." Lao Liang said very treacherously, "The Chai family is the one who has the oath of Emperor Taizu, on this sensitive matter, Gao Fang went to Gaotang coldly, and then many things happened, and he also asked to send troops to Gaotang. For the father, I ask you, among them, doesn't he Xiao Gao have some ulterior motives? I'm afraid he didn't believe it himself. And once he is allowed to send troops to Gao Tang, he is such a angry person, under the premise that the Gao family and the Chai family have enmity, daughter, tell the old man, do you really know the consequences of the order issued by the Left-behind Division? As an official, the power is in hand, and making decisions is really not something that can be done by patting his head. ”

Liang Xiwen couldn't help but feel that his father was the most cunning and cunning, although he was thinking too much, but there were some risks, and he really had to think too much about these old foxes to avoid them safely, there were really too many traps in officialdom. (To be continued.) )
