Chapter 562: List of Southbound Departures
Beikoer learned that the emperor of the Ming Dynasty not only knighted himself, but also rewarded him with the title of Khan, and cast a golden book in a decent manner, and he was really excited to the bones. Even if he is brave and brave, after all, he is a young man who has just turned twenty years old, he has never stepped out of the grassland in the first twenty years, and in his eyes, the most prosperous and prosperous place in the world must be a yurt with endless cattle and sheep as far as the eye can see.
But it wasn't until I came to Daming Jingshi that I suddenly woke up, and the world was not what I imagined. Different from imagination, the flow of people in the Ming Dynasty is like weaving, and it is extremely prosperous, just as the old man Damu has described it in Chinese more than once, rubbing shoulders one after another, sweating like rain.
Before that, it was really hard for Bekoer to imagine such a scene, but when this scene really appeared in front of him, he couldn't say a word when he was shocked. An unprecedented thought arose in my heart, the Han people were rich and powerful, far from being comparable to the Mongols, and their population was so large that they were afraid that the Dingkou of a single Jingshi would be more than the Dingkou of the entire Mongolian tribal alliance, right?
Bekoer was finally ashamed of his previous arrogance and ignorance, and until he met Li Xin, all he could think about was how to restore the former glory of the Mongol Empire and how to achieve the hegemony of Genghis Khan. After seeing the world, I knew what was called the frog at the bottom of the well in the mouth of the old man of the curtain, what I used to think was just a big dream of the Spring and Autumn Period, the magnificent buildings in front of me, the endless houses in sight, and the high city walls all reminded me all the time that the Han people have unrivaled wealth and power.
Therefore, when Zhu Youzhen, the son of the Great Tomorrow, personally handed over the golden book to him, Bei Kuo'er was so excited that he couldn't control himself, and he burst into tears, knelt on the ground, and thanked Emperor Daming for his kindness in tears, and promised again and again that he would be a subordinate of the Ming Dynasty in this life, and would never abandon it.
Bei Koer's emotional performance made Zhu Youzhen very full, and finally swept away the evil spirit of successive defeats in front of the courtiers. Only at this time did he feel that he had the appearance of the Heavenly Empire, after all, he could make the leaders of Fanbang Huawai kneel at his feet, which was almost extinct since he ascended the throne.
"Alright, get up, I heard that you also participated in the battle against the Eastern Prisoners?"
When he heard that His Majesty the Ming Emperor had personally inquired, he had already stood up, but he knelt on the ground and replied: "The ministers and generals have some slight achievements in Jinzhou, which are not worth mentioning!" ”
This Chinese remark is nondescript, but it is the humble and hypocritical rhetoric of the Han people that the old man Damu remembered when he searched his intestines and scraped his stomach. But even so, in the ears of a group of courtiers and Zhu Youzhen, they were even more impressed.
These Tartars have always been arrogant and tight, and they dare to open a dye shop if they have a little color, and the merits of these generals under Li Xin are all subordinates, not to mention that there is an elite cavalry under Bei Koer, if he only makes a small contribution, the ghost believes it. Then there is only one answer, and that is that he is humble.
I really didn't expect that a Tartar would know the number of etiquette, and Zhu Youzhen couldn't help but have a good impression of this young Mongolian tribal leader.
Bei Ko'er was so excited that he even said that he was willing to stay in Beijing for a long time and serve in front of His Majesty the Ming Emperor, which made Zhu Youzhen even more satisfied, but he understood that the current reward for Bei Ko'er was not to keep a slave in Beijing, but also to rely on the young Mongolian tribal leader to return to the Monan grassland, integrate the Mongolian tribes, and jointly fight against the Manchu captives, in order to contain the Manchu troops north of the Shanhai Pass, making it difficult for them to enter the country, echoing with the Central Plains thieves, and repeatedly hindering.
Needless to say, Li Xin had already experienced the ceremony once, and he had already had experience, and what he remembered was how the cabinet was certain about his southward departure, and what it would be good if it had put forward any unimportant and difficult moves. Moreover, Zhu Youzhen's attitude is also very ambiguous, making it clear that the cabinet agrees with him and pushes the boat with Sun Shui, and if the cabinet opposes it, it is inconvenient for him to come forward.
As far as the reality is concerned, it is indeed a bit strange that Zhu Youzhen, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, took the initiative to take the initiative for such a reason, at least Li Xin felt so, because he had a trace of unknown things in his heart, and because of this, he suffered even more.
After rewarding the Three Guards, Li Xin, in order to avoid suspicion, returned most of the generals to the barracks, leaving only a few henchmen such as Niu Dan to call for him. In addition to being bored, Li Xin started to walk the streets and alleys again, but then, the feeling of being followed came back, but when he tried to dig out the person who was being followed, he couldn't see half a ghost. Li Xinzhi, who was harmed, thought that he was hallucinating.
But after all, for the sake of safety, Li Xin told Niu Dan to send more people to secretly investigate the suspicious people who were standing there, but after tossing for a long time, Niu Dan, who had always been serious, returned empty-handed, and did not find the slightest abnormal symptom.
At this point, Li Xin has relieved his heart from being suspicious, maybe he is indeed too suspicious, how can he be worthy of such effort.
Recently, Liu Yuliang has not come very much, which makes Li Xin's ears quiet, he knows that the reason why Liu Yuliang is estranged from him is also to avoid suspicion, after all, the identity of the cardinal is mostly made friends with the border generals, which will cause the emperor's suspicion and the attack of the ministers in which dynasty and generation. This was originally reasonable, because the emperor's intention to reward Liu Yuliang was also promulgated immediately after the Three Guards.
Perhaps the biggest winner of this Dongyu's entry into the Kou is Liu Yuliang, and the decision of the first battle of Jinzhou fell on Liu Yuliang's head under Li Xin's half-push and half-effort, as well as the emperor's strong appreciation and support.
Even some ministers have suggested that Liu Yuliang can be given the title of duke, and even the call for Liu Yuliang to re-enter the cabinet is very high. Although the emperor had previously decreed that Zhou Yanru should enter Beijing, with the development of the situation, the courtiers felt confused, thinking that in the emperor's reward and various commendations, they did clearly feel that the emperor had regained his trust and value for Liu Yuliang.
As a result, Liu Yuliang has risen from a marginalized cabinet minister, to a hot figure in the officialdom of Beijing after experiencing a boiling reward. In such a situation, Liu Yuliang is no longer as good as when he first returned to Beijing, when he was still a cabinet minister who was not noticed at all, but now it is very different, he has become the focus of attention again, and even his every move will be recorded by people with intentions and infinitely magnified......
Therefore, his best choice was naturally to keep his distance from Li Shin, who was a border general, in order to avoid the attacks of opponents of the DPRK and China.
Li Xin sighed confidently, Liu Yuliang's bet is right, if you lose, you may lose your life, and if you win, you will win a lot of money. Yes, it must be the case, Li Xin has already commented on Liu Yuliang's behavior in his heart, and all his previous behaviors may have been driven by this speculative mind. Because only in this way can he reconnect with Liu Yuliang, who used to do everything in the past, in terms of image.
But soon Liu Yuliang's actions made Li Xin puzzled, and that night Liu Yuliang actually sent a letter from his servant in the form of a secret letter from the Three Guards, the content of which surprised Li Xin, and if such things were revealed to the world, he was afraid that it would cause an uproar.
Obviously, there are only a few people in the Jingshi who know about this, but one thing Li Xin can be sure of is that Zhu Youzhen, the son of the Great Tomorrow, must not know this news, otherwise Zhu Youzhen will definitely vomit blood and die in anger.
Liu Yuliang explained in the letter that this qiē is just rumors, and that we must not act recklessly without tangible evidence. Of course, it is necessary to plan for a rainy day in order to cope with a sudden change.
Li Xin was shocked and immediately wrote a secret letter, ordering Niu Dan to send someone to Taiyuan, Shanxi overnight, and at the same time, he set a list of going south with the army. As for Lu Jiu, as well as Cheng Mingjiu, Zhang Shishi and others, they were all left in the Three Guards.
Lu Jiu, as a pillar figure who had been following Li Xin for a long time, naturally couldn't figure out why Li Xin excluded him from the list, and after learning the content of the list, he went into the city to find Li Xin's theory.
Li Xin said earnestly: "You are your brother's henchman, of course you have to stay and watch the three guards for your brother, the three of you stay, you can rest assured for your brother!" ”
Lu Jiu suddenly realized that the thirteenth brother had another important task to keep him.
"Who would dare to rob our three guards?" Even so, he still didn't believe that the Three Guards could still fall into others!
"Brother Wei is about to go south, and the marriage with the lord of Xinle is also imminent, and now in the eyes of the ministers of the court, the Three Guards have become a piece of ownerless fat, and there are many people staring at him!"
Lu Jiu said hatefully: "Whoever dares not to measure his own strength, let him taste our brother's methods!" His expression was very hideous, this kind of expression Li Xin hadn't seen for a long time, and the last time was when they were both Taihang Mountain horse thieves. Obviously, Lu Jiu moved with murderous intent, and Li Xin immediately understood that Lu Jiu had misunderstood what he meant.
"Don't do stupid things, being a brother is to let you look at the Three Guards, not to trap yourself in it. Remember, it's not all about fighting and killing. In case of trouble, I discussed with Cheng Mingjiu and Zhang Shishi, both of whom are credible people! ”
Lu Jiu promised in a sullen voice, and said that he would stay in the city and be bored, and he wanted to go back to the barracks.
"Wait, how is Mi Yan's injury?"
Speaking of Mi Yan, Lu Jiu actually showed a palpitating look.
"This kid has picked up a life, thanks to Heisenberg, although the injury is not light, but he is finally slowly recovering!"
