265 Set sail again
may be that there are no others, Song Yingchang's words are very heartbreaking, and the words poke into Xiao Ruxun's heart. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
"The last general is naturally clear, but Song Gong, the last general is not loyal to the emperor alone, the last general is loyal to the entire Ming Dynasty, and the last general will not only maintain the emperor, but the entire Ming Dynasty, including all the people of the Ming Dynasty, are within the scope of the general's loyalty, so even if there is a day, the last general will have a clear conscience."
Song Yingchang's face was cold, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a smile: "If it is an authentic Wenchen sitting here today, tomorrow you will be skinned and cramped and the three clans will be exterminated!" ”
"However, Duke Song is not an out-and-out civil minister, and even the Duke of Song has been attacked more than the last general, so the last general will say this, right? Song Gong? ”
The corners of Xiao Ruxun's mouth also hooked up a smile.
"Okay, you Xiao Ruxun! After seeing the old man through, what else can the old man say? Indeed, as you said, the situation of Wen Shuai is even more unbearable than that of your generals, so what do you want to do? Serve the old man? Hehehe, that's better to be exempted, the old man himself is difficult to protect, how can I talk about being your backer? If you want to find a backer, go to the cabinet ministers, or the six books, especially the officials and the Ministry of Rites, a heavenly official and a prince, I don't know how many people want to go to the knot, what's the use of you looking for an old man? ”
"At least you can express your opinion on the government, but the last general can't do it, and the last general will not interrupt the future of living in Beijing for a long time, and the last general plans to go to the southwest."
"Southwest? What do you mean? ”
"The last general doesn't know what kind of position the emperor will give the last general, but at least, the last general can know that he will not be the general of Ningxia anymore, either transferred to Liaodong, or transferred to Jizhen, or stay in Beijing, the last general feels that it is more likely to stay in Beijing."
Song Yingchang frowned: "Admiral Jingshi Rongzheng? ”
Xiao Ruxun nodded: "The military merits of the last general, either knighted, or added, there are too few ways to add officials, but the possibility of knighthood is greater, but the last general has just become a Pinglu Bo before, and it is not in accordance with the rules to add a knight again, so the last general feels that the imperial court is very likely to give the last general a position in Beijing, and leave the last general in Beijing, so that it is convenient to take care of it nearby. ”
"So, you want to go to the southwest to quell the chaos?"
"Well, if the last general stays in Beijing, he will definitely become a bargaining chip for the leaders of the major civil and official forces to fight for power and profit, even if the last general is unwilling, he will inevitably be involved in disputes, and in the end he is very likely to become a victim, and the best outcome is to take office and return to his hometown in advance, which is not very acceptable to the last general."
Song Yingchang thought about it for a while, and felt that according to the virtues of those civil officials in the capital, Xiao Ruxun's but it was not impossible.
"What you said is also reasonable, it's not impossible to happen, so you still have to look for opportunities to release it?"
Xiao Ruxun nodded: "Well, that's right, only on the battlefield, a military general like the last general is the safest, so the last general needs someone to be able to wave the flag for the last general and support the last general to send troops to quell the chaos again, only then is the best way out for the last general, and the last general must not stay in Beijing." ”
Song Yingchang pondered for a moment and asked calmly: "Listen to what you mean, Ji Xin, are you planning to form an alliance with the old man, instead of serving the old man?" ”
"Although the last general is a military general, he still can't do such a thing as a lackey."
"Well, in that case, what benefit can the old man get? Can you push the old man to the position of the secretary of the military department? If you can do this, the old man will really have a different opinion of you. ”
Song Yingchang looked at Xiao Ruxun with interest.
"If the last general has that kind of ability, the military generals of the Ming Dynasty will not be in such a difficult situation, but the last general hopes that Song Gong will retreat and not stick to the military department, and the imperial court is not unaware of Song Gong's situation, according to His Majesty's current thoughts, if His Majesty intends to leave the last general in Beijing, he will inevitably leave Song Gong in Beijing by the way, but the position may not be the military department, it may be the Ministry of Industry, or even the Criminal Department."
"What do you say?"
"Because Shi Xing, the secretary of the Ministry of War, did not make a mistake, if Song Gong replaced him, Song Gong is afraid that he will not be able to do this position at all, but if it is a relatively light Ministry of Industry or Criminal Department, it will not be so terrible, so Song Gong should mobilize his own resources, and when he has not returned to Beijing, when His Majesty's decision has not yet been made, ask someone to operate, go to the Criminal Department or the Ministry of Industry to take up a post, and find a way to stay in Beijing and no longer lead troops."
Xiao Ruxun's words made Song Yingchang pay some attention.
"Are you asking the old man to take the initiative to transfer to the Ministry of Industry or the Criminal Department?"
Xiao Ruxun nodded.
"Among the six departments, the criminal department is the cheapest, and the Ministry of Industry is the lightest, these two departments have never been important positions for the court officials to compete for power and profit, but under some special circumstances, these two departments can play an important role and become the bargaining chips that those in power must take!"
Song Yingchang's eyes were shining: "What do you mean ......?"
"That's right."
Song Yingchang searched for it, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that what Xiao Ruxun said was a bit right, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that what Xiao Ruxun said made sense, it was indeed so, it was indeed like this, if he was stuck in the military department, not only would the imprint of the generals not be washed away, but he would also be driven out of Beijing by those bastards looking for opportunities.
After that, Song Yingchang and Xiao Ruxun discussed something, no one knows, but in the next few days, Xiao Ruxun went to Song Yingchang's big tent more and more times, the days passed day by day, and the day when the army was ready to march was closer, finally, the time came, the ships were ready, the army was ready, and the Korean king Li Hao also came to Busan with a group of ministers from Seoul, and sent the Ming army out of the country to express his gratitude for the grace of the Ming Dynasty's reconstruction.
Although there were all kinds of unpleasant experiences during the period, although there were all kinds of things about Ming officials bullying North Korean officials, although there were things about the Ming army bullying the North Korean army, but in the end, the Ming army helped the Koreans kill all the Japanese, protected Korea, and made North Korea recover.
No one can object to this.
Therefore, Li Hao also sincerely kowtowed a few times in front of Song Yingchang and Xiao Ruxun to express his sincere gratitude, and then Song Yingchang quickly helped him up to express his helplessness.
The ministers below the king of Joseon knelt down to express their gratitude to the admiral of the Ming Dynasty and the major generals.
This kneeling heralded the official end of the Korean Campaign, which had caused the violent political and military turmoil in the three East Asian countries, and the real end could only be carried out in the capital of the Ming Dynasty.
