646, handover turmoil (above)
Jingwen and the liriko came to the marshal mansion of the envoy of the Western Army in Lanzhou, and then showed his succession decree and proof of military talismans, and then asked to see the eldest grandson Shunde, the envoy of the Western Army, who was about to leave office. And the soldiers in there quickly went to report, but the soldiers soon came out.
"We, the marshal, invite you in!" The soldier said.
Jingwen and Yuriko entered the tent of the envoy of the Western Army, preparing to hand over to the eldest grandson Shunde. As long as the handover is completed, then you can officially take over the Western Army, so that you can become the temporary envoy of the Western Army. As for this eldest grandson Shunde, he naturally had to return to Chang'an and wait for the emperor's disposal. And Jingwen knew that this time the eldest grandson Shunde would have to shed his skin if he didn't die, because the situation had eroded to this day, and it was inseparable from his idea of not seeking merit but seeking no fault. And the reason why the Tubo people dare to be so arrogant has a lot to do with the fact that he is timid and does not dare to send troops in time. Therefore, Jingwen knew that I was afraid that this eldest grandson Shunde would be idle, and it was impossible for such a courageless general to be a good general. Maybe he used to be a good general, but now he can't.
"Hahahaha, I really didn't expect the famous Jingwen to come, I'm really brilliant!" The eldest grandson Shunde said.
Then, the eldest grandson Shunde invited Jingwen to the banquet as a pick-up for Jingwen. Looking at the dishes on the table, Jingwen was obviously a little unhappy.
"General Changsun, you still have the heart to eat these? Don't you know that the people of Liangzhou are bleeding in front of you, and you still have the leisure to eat these? Could it be that you are tight in front and tight in the rear? Jingwen said unhappily.
Who knows what will happen in the occupied area ahead, but the eldest grandson Shunde actually eats a lot of fish and meat here, which makes Jingwen very unhappy. Although Jingwen is not a professional general, he also knows that it is very bad to do this. And this qiΔ is all done by the eldest grandson Shunde. You still have the face to enjoy here, this is really a good thing? Therefore, it is very rare for Jingwen to be able to hold back and not scold. If it were with the dick silk character in his previous life, I'm afraid he would have scolded people a long time ago.
"General Changsun, let's hurry up and hand it over!" Jingwen said.
"No hurry, no hurry! Let's eat first, I'm afraid General Jingwen also came here from Chang'an, and he has been sleeping in the open for half a month, I'm afraid I haven't eaten yet! So. Let's eat first! The eldest grandson Shunde said.
Jingwen saw this eldest grandson Shunde, and he endured it. Now it is not his home field, and the handover has not yet been carried out, so this eldest grandson Shunde is still the envoy of the Western Army. However, Jingwen has already decided that as long as the handover is completed, this guy must be blown away, and he will not be able to stay for a day. This guy is so annoying, it's really unacceptable. This guy has no sense of responsibility at all. has become an old officer, how can such a person lead a good soldier? Even Jingwen knows this very well.
The two sat down, and Yuriko nodded. It means that the dish can be eaten and there is nothing wrong with it. Just now, Yuriko had already checked it with a special method, and after making sure that there was no poison, she told SΓΉ Jingwen that she could eat it. This is not that Jingwen is cautious, but that he must be careful. Jingwen and the eldest grandson Wuji now have irreconcilable contradictions. The eldest grandson Wuji can't wait to let himself die! This eldest grandson Shunde is the uncle of the eldest grandson Wuji, so who knows if the eldest grandson Wuji will let this eldest grandson Shunde assassinate himself? So, you have to be careful what you should be careful about. Make sure there are no problems.
Jingwen took a few bites next, and then he finished eating. And the eldest grandson Shunde didn't seem to care about Jingwen, but directly ate here with relish, obviously not in a hurry. And Jingwen was very unhappy, but there was nothing he could do. This is at most a moral issue, not a disciplinary issue, can Jingwen say anything? Let's not say that Jingwen hasn't handed over to him yet, anyway, this guy is actually rubbing here, and this Jingwen has no good way.
Finally waited until he finished eating, Jingwen immediately said, "General Changsun, we can hand it over!" β
And the eldest grandson Shunde looked out the window at the sky, and then said, "It's late now, General Jingwen will wait until tomorrow!" It's getting late, and it's not convenient for me to leave after the handover! You can't let me sleep on the streets after the handover, can you? So, let's wait for tomorrow! β
"Have you finished swimming?" Jingwen finally couldn't help but ask in an angry tone.
"General Jingwen, what are you anxious about? Now that the situation is already like this, is it a problem to delay a few more days? Anyway, Lanzhou City is high and deep, and the Tubo people can't attack it. Moreover, the Tubo people only occupied Liangzhou, and did not continue to attack Liangzhou, they just occupied Liangzhou Guazhou. The eldest grandson Shunde said.
Jingwen continued: "You know what? If the Silk Road is opened one day later, how much will our Datang lose? So many businessmen are stuck in Lanzhou and can't continue to do business. Do you know how much loss this will bring to my Datang? β
Jingwen was already questioning, obviously angry and very obvious. This Silk Road is already a road about trade, and Jingwen can also know that the first batch of caravans he sent a year ago should be almost back. But this group of Tubo people actually came to make trouble at this time, what if their caravan was robbed by the Tubo people at that time? Therefore, Jingwen is also very anxious. Every day, merchants gather in Lanzhou, and then gather into caravans through various methods, and then set off together to do business in the Western Regions. And this can bring a lot of taxes to Datang, and there are a lot of benefits. And there is also the cultural exchange between the East and the West, and this benefit is even more immeasurable. But this eldest grandson Shunde was so careless, which made Jingwen very annoyed.
"These lowly businessmen, they lose and lose, what is there? As for the loss of financial resources, what is this, we can get it back by adding taxes! As long as the whole country increases the tax by one cent, isn't it possible to recover it? The eldest grandson Shunde said.
"Boom!"
Jingwen was completely furious and overturned the table. This eldest grandson Shunde really doesn't have a backache when he stands and talks, and he actually says what to increase taxes? It seems that he is from a wealthy family, so he doesn't know the hardships of the people! (To be continued......)
