【Chapter 350】In your eyes, does an emperor really exist?

(0350) Tian Ergeng is really worried about Xu Xingxia's rebellion.

It must be known that the authority of Jinyiwei is based on imperial power. To put it bluntly, they are indeed just a group of doglegs of the emperor. Only those who feel awe of the imperial power will be afraid of the existence of Jinyiwei. If others despise even the imperial power, what is the use of Jinyiwei? When you really go to the battlefield, Jinyiwei is definitely not as good as the field troops!

Once Xu Xingxia really rebelled, Jinyiwei would be completely useless. To be honest, if he Tian Ergeng dies in the hands of Xu Xingxia today, it is estimated that he will die in vain. The people of Dongchang and Jinyiwei are dead, and it is almost impossible to get a chance to make a watch. Because, those people in the Ministry of Rites hate Dongchang and Jinyiwei the most, and they can't wait to break their corpses into thousands of pieces, crush their bones and scatter ashes, how can they be commended? It's okay not to spit and drown them.

Why do the people of Dongchang and Jinyiwei have to desperately accumulate wealth and goods, and they are much more perverted than ordinary people? The main reason is that they don't have any protection at all. Don't look at Dongchang and Jinyiwei, in front of ordinary officials, they are majestic, life and death, and their arrogance is monstrous, but they are on the emperor's side, and their status is not even as good as that of dogs. They don't need to go through a division to deal with prisoners, and in the same way, someone else doesn't need to go through a division to deal with them. To paraphrase a very popular phrase in later generations, they are simply temporary workers!

If the Emperor doesn't like them, or if he needs to make a scapegoat, they will immediately be laid out and take all the blame. At that time, all the officials of the imperial court will vent their anger on them. Their crimes, which will be released a hundredfold, will be recorded on the pillar of shame in history. If they can keep a whole corpse, it is already a blessing in misfortune, and more importantly, it is really a broken bone.

Stimulated by the precarious mind, only money is the most real. Whether it's cheating, cheating, stealing, or extortion, as long as you get money, it's powerful. After getting the money, it is necessary to spend all day drinking, drunk and dreaming of death. Otherwise, once someone else settles it out, what is the use of having more family property? Didn't fatten someone else's belly? In a finite life, infinite enjoyment is the king.

"How could Wang Qinian be such a person?" Tian Ergeng's heart couldn't help but become more and more depressed. Their original intention of coming to Ningxia Town was actually for Wang Qinian. However, they also learned that in order to deal with Wang Qinian, they must first deal with this Xu Xingxia. At the beginning, none of them took Xu Xingxia seriously. As a result, now, it is difficult to ride a tiger, and they understand how terrible Xu Xingxia is. Wang Qinian, this time I found the right person!

Their biggest scruple about Xu Xingxia is that he will really rebel. Once he really rebelled, everything he said would be in vain. Fleeing Ningxia Town as soon as possible is real. The imperial court, of course, would suppress the rebellion. No court would tolerate others challenging the majesty of imperial power. Xu Xingxia dared to rebel, and the imperial court dared to suppress it. There is no doubt about it. However, it is difficult to say how long it will take for this rebellion to be suppressed. And during this period, it is absolutely difficult to say whether the angry emperor will cut off the heads of several related figures.

More than 20 years ago, also in Ningxia Town, the rebellion of Bobai was suppressed relatively quickly. Before and after, it is estimated that it will take more than half a year. Because Bobai itself is a branch of the Tatars, not a Han Chinese, there are not many supporters. The relationship between the Han Chinese and the Tatars was originally very antagonistic. He himself also had serious problems with his subordinates, which led to infighting for a while. After the rebellion, Bobai's strategy also made a fatal mistake. For a number of reasons, the rebellion was quickly suppressed.

Rao is so, the imperial court still spent huge manpower, material and financial resources to suppress the Bobai rebellion. At that time, the imperial court dispatched all the elites of the Ming army. The main force of the Ming army was the 8,000 Liaodong cavalry left by Li Chengliang that year, and the one who led the troops was his son Li Rusong. Due to the relatively wide scope of this rebellion, the military situation in the northwest of the Ming Empire further deteriorated, and the important towns of the Nine Frontiers owed more money and grain, and the national government was in dire straits.

Compared with the Bobai Rebellion in Ningxia Town, the Yang Yinglong Rebellion in Banzhou was suppressed for a much longer time, delaying for several years and costing countless money and food. Purely from the perspective of consuming the national treasury, the cost of suppressing Banzhou Yang Yinglong was much more than resisting and aiding Korea. After these two rebellions broke out, the Ming Dynasty further sank.

Suppressing rebellions is definitely not as simple as killing people and raiding homes. Money and food are needed to fight a war, and the more troops are dispatched, the more money and food will be spent. The country's income from money and grain is limited, and if it consumes more in this respect, it will inevitably lose in the other aspect. Taking care of one and losing the other, ignoring the head, this is the most realistic portrayal. It is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, and you cannot let the treasury or the treasury grow silver or grain out of thin air. Zhang Ju happened to accumulate a little foundation that was not easy to accumulate, and he was engaged in the three major expeditions of Wanli, and there was nothing.

In fact, Tian Ergeng's worries are not unreasonable. Xu Xingxia did have a plan to rebel, but he didn't implement it. Xu Xingxia's current mentality is very clear. If you are on my own terms, I will not rebel. If you don't have a good relationship with me, I'll do the opposite. If you want to deal with me, I'm not welcome, just turn the gun and deal with you! If you want me to die, I'll let you all die!

This mentality is completely consistent with his basic principles of doing things. Xu Xingxia in his previous life was like this. If you're nice to me, I'm good to you. If you don't get along with me, I won't get along with you. If you hit me, I'm going to fight back. If you want to kill me, then I'll kill you first! Whether we can beat it or not, let's not talk about it for the time being, anyway, we are definitely not shrinking turtles, not bad seeds!

It is precisely because of this mentality that Xu Xingxia can be so arrogant and domineering. He has his own one-third of an acre of land, his own population, his own army, his own secret technology, his own money-making network, and everything can survive without relying on outsiders. He doesn't need to look at anyone else's face to act. If the higher authorities could afford him, he might be able to bear it. If the boss looks down on him, it's a big deal that Lao Tzu will be reversed, what can you do to me!

Tian Ergeng held back his anger and said slowly: "Xu Xingxia, as the representative of the Ningxia Zhenwei Army, how can you do things so out of line?" You have to pay attention to your own influence and don't bring others badly. Look at the other thousand households, who is like you? If you don't pay attention to your own image, how can you make the people below admire you? ”

Xu Xingxia grinned, glanced at the other party coldly, and said with disdain: "That's funny." I, a generation of thousands of households, what is inferior to people? Did others kill as many tartars as I did? Do they dare to fight with the Tartars face to face? If I want to say that I have any shortcomings, it is that I can't pat the horse's ass, I don't know how to pat the horse, flatter, and please my superiors! Tian Qianhu, do you think so? ”

Tian Ergeng's face was even more ugly. He knows his own affairs and is particularly sensitive to certain things. When Xu Xingxia said this, he suddenly felt that Xu Xingxia was scolding him for his superb skills in slapping his beard and flattery! In fact, Jinyiwei itself has no military exploits at all, and if you want to be promoted, you must be good at drilling. If he doesn't have the ability to slap horses, he can't get mixed into the position of Jinyi Wei Qianhu at all! This damn Xu Xingxia! If you have the opportunity, you must call him worse than dead!

Tian Ergeng's side is another Jinyi Wei Qianhu Xu Xianchun. This person is the guy who spoke very femininely just now. In fact, unlike Tian Ergeng's sturdiness, Xu Xianchun looks like Si Swenwen, thin and weak, and doesn't seem to have much strength. His limbs are relatively small. Only a pair of small eyes, very slippery, and the bones keep turning. If it weren't for the official uniform of the Jinyi Wei Qianhu on his body, and the Jinyi Tiqi retinue by his side, most others would think that he was a staff member like a master.

Regarding Xu Xingxia's performance, Xu Xianchun's current evaluation is only two words, that is, clumsy. I've seen rudeness, I've never seen such rudeness. Xu Xingxia's clumsy performance just now made people think that he was a three-year-old child. He really wanted to say to Xu Xingxia, please, all the people present are adults, you are a three-year-old doll, don't run out and be embarrassed. Aren't you really afraid that everyone will vomit up last night's dinner?

However, Xu Xianchun definitely does not think that Xu Xingxia is an easy person to deal with. Joke! An easy-to-deal guy can stuff thousands of Tartar corpses into Ningxia City? Can the Kylgin tribe of the Tatars be beaten to the point that they have no temper at all? Can you pull out an inaccessible white-clothed army in less than a year? Can you control more than 3 million acres of land in less than a year? Can you have 60,000 or 70,000 military households? Since he deliberately pretended to be naïve and clumsy, it means that he must have some kind of conspiracy.

The garden party in Qingwangfu, what is the surname, he will not know. In Ningxia Town, few people dared to mess around with anything related to Qingwangfu. Unless he doesn't want to continue to mix in Ningxia Town. He pretended to be crazy and stupid at the garden party to let others see his jokes, but who knows, is he also watching other people's jokes? Who knows, when others are thinking about him, is he also calculating others?

Among the thirty-six strategies, there is a plan called "fake idiocy is not crazy", which means pretending to be stupid, pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger. To put it simply, it looks silly on the outside, but in fact is smarter than anyone else on the inside. Xu Xianchun estimated that Xu Xingxia was such a guy. For this person, it is necessary to raise the vigilance of twelve points. Otherwise, if you are not careful, you will fall into their chime.

Xu Xianchun stepped forward, clasped his fists very gently, and said with a smile: "Escort Xu, don't get me wrong, Tian Qianhu definitely doesn't mean that." Those of us in the capital who mentioned Xu Qianhu's exploits were all praised. If you think about it, you can have the strength you have today without relying on a penny from your boss. How can such a feat be achieved by ordinary people? Regardless of whether others admire it or not, I, Xu Xianchun, am definitely impressed. ”

If it weren't for the fact that Xu Xianchun, who knew this Sven Wen and was thin and weak, had personally inserted a three-inch long nail into the brains of Yang Lian and Zuo Guangdou alive, causing the two of them to die of pain, Xu Xingxia would definitely think that this guy was a Sven person. Even if he is a bad person, he should be a sven scum, the type of gentleman who doesn't do anything. Because, judging from his appearance, it really can't be seen that he has the slightest tendency to violence. It seems that the guys in Jinyiwei are all masters who are good at disguising themselves!

Xu Xingxia said casually: "Since Xu Qianhu said that it was a misunderstanding, it was a misunderstanding. Since it's a misunderstanding, it's okay to say it. We don't have the truth of misunderstanding, and we have to be forgiving and forgiving. Xu Qianhu, what do you mean? ”

Xu Xianchun smiled slightly, and said eagerly: "Exactly, exactly, a small misunderstanding, as long as it is said, it will be fine." To be honest, Xu Qianhu's exploits in Ningxia Town are being recited by the people of the capital. The Ming Dynasty has been in the army for two hundred years, and I have never seen you as young and promising. After entering the cabinet to worship the prime minister, it is said that it is okay to wait! ”

Xu Xingxia rarely showed a sincere smile, and said equally eagerly: "Awards, awards, Xu Qianhu has won awards!" A small feat, it's really embarrassing! I also ask the two of you to publicize it and listen to the heavens to show my loyalty to Xu Xingxia! In the future, if the emperor has any commendation, there is nothing else, I will share it equally with you! Word! ”

Xu Xianchun scolded secretly in his heart, if you were a little loyal, you wouldn't be arrogant here. In your eyes, is there really an emperor? I don't see any hair! You also share the emperor's reward with us fifty-fifty! Can such a thing be said by a courtier? Are you blind or deaf when everyone around you is?

He said with a smile: "It's easy to say, it's easy to say, Xu Qianhu is young and promising, and he has made great contributions, as long as he listens to the sky, he will be able to rise and soar in the future, and it will be okay at all." In the future, we will have to rely on Xu Qianhu to carry out more! ”

If you are a person who doesn't know the details, you still think that as soon as the two meet, they feel very speculative and talk endlessly. In fact, whether it is Xu Xingxia or Xu Xianchun, everything they just said is completely brainless. Because no one will take these words seriously. Whatever you say, it's all just fart.

Tian Ergeng's temper was more impulsive, and at this time, he couldn't bear it anymore, and couldn't help but interject: "Are you still ready to go up to heaven?" I think you're going to go to jail! ”
