Chapter 318 Gentleman's Condence
Chapter 38 (Monthly ticket of the three brothers of Class 087, Xie Dancha Rumo, Laohua Bear and Gen 087.)
A few days later, Fenglai came upstairs in Nanxunfang, and Yang Yiqing, the new three-sided chief, held a banquet here. Although there were only a few people, they were all not small people; Zhang Mao, the British Duke, the governor of the regimental, Zhang Lun, the deputy governor of the regiment and the Shenji camp, and Song Nan, the commander of Daming Jinyiwei, and the first-class brave crown uncle, Several Count Xunqi, who was in charge of the admiral of the Beijing camp, were present.
The identity of the people at this banquet is very interesting. Not to mention the old officials such as the British Duke, Yang Yiqing is an authentic civil servant, and there are several other generals who are close friends with Yang Yiqing, while Song Nan is a close minister and military officer of the emperor.
It is also not easy to pinch people of various identities together to form a small group. The three forces of the internal and external court of the Ming Dynasty are distinct, each with their own persistence and small circles. Needless to say, there is a gap and struggle with each other. Even if there is something to turn to each other, they only dare to sneak around. In public, there is still an argument that anyone you support opposes.
It is also a strange thing that people with various identities can get together in public at today's banquet. In the final analysis, when the interests of these people are the same, the estrangement of identity is not worth mentioning.
This push to change the cup, until the second update, everyone in the seat almost drank. Yang Yiqing drank a lot and toasted frequently. In the end, her husband Zhang Mao was too old and drunk on the spot. Zhang Lun quickly sent her husband back to his house in person, and a group of admirals also saw her husband and little father-in-law leave. Say goodbye; Song Nan wanted to leave, but was left by Yang Yiqing.
The restaurant man cleaned up the leftovers, cleaned the tables and chairs, and served a pot of tea. Yang Yiqing invited Song Nan to sit down, and the two of them drank tea and chatted.
Yang Yiqing said, "Song Commander, this really surprised me. When you came to find me that day, I actually had doubts in my heart. I didn't believe that the function of this three-sided general system fell on me. To be honest, I also doubted Lord Song's ability, but I didn't expect that Lord Song actually did it. I'm really grateful."
Song Nan smiled and said, "Don't say you don't believe it, I don't believe it myself; Lord Yang's political achievements during his tenure as an official in the northwest are outstanding and can withstand the investigation of all parties. On this basis, I can recommend you to the British public. In fact, Lord Yang himself is qualified. I just waited for a helping."
Yang Yiqing sighed, "I'm really ashamed. I didn't expect that I was an official for more than 20 years, and the person who finally recognized me was Lord Song. Although Lord Song is young, he is definitely the pillar of my Ming Dynasty. In the past few days, I have specially inquired about Lord Song's resume. If I don't ask, I don't know. I almost scared my chin. Since ancient times, heroes have been young, and I am ashamed of myself.
Song Nan smiled and said, "Lord Yang, don't say that. I can't sit still when you say so. To be honest, I can have today. In addition to the emperor's weight, I also have some luck. Speaking of real skills, people like Lord Yang are several times better than me. This time, my lord is the chief of the three-sided system, and I have a great responsibility. I don't hide it from my lord. I made a ticket in front of the emperor. If Lord Yang can't govern the three sides well, I'm afraid someone will impeach me in the court.
Yang Yiqing said, "Lord Song, I know what you mean; but the three sides have accumulated disadvantages. If you want to make it difficult to work overnight, I'm afraid that some people in the court will not allow me enough time to transform, and I'm also worried that my movement in the northwest will affect the interests of too many people. So much so that there will be a lot of resistance.
Song Nan said, "My husband and I will deal with the affairs in the court. Lord Yang only cares about the accumulated disadvantages. If anything happens, we will naturally deal with it."
Yang Yiqing said, "Thank you very much, Lord Song, but Lord Song, I have something to say, but I'm afraid of bumping into you and the British father. I, Yang Yiqing, am straightforward, and I feel uncomfortable if I don't say it."
Song Nan smiled and said, "Let me guess what Lord Yang wants to say?"
Yang Yiqing said in astonishment, "Can you guess?"
Song Nan said, "Try it, well... I guess Lord Yang must say that although the British official and I recommend you as the chief producer of the three sides, you don't want to be our tool, and you must stick to your own opinions in the future. Am I right?"
Yang Yiqing was stunned for a long time and said, "Is Lord Song good at mind reading? Can you guess this?"
Song Nan laughed and said, "Lord Yang, any mind-reading skill is nonsense. I'm just judging from the adult's character. You are a person who is upright and straightforward. How can a person like you ignore the principle because of our recommendation of your little favor? If so, you would not have taken it in your office as the governor of Shaanxi. The foreign court has offended all, don't you think so?
Yang Yiqing shook his head and sighed, "I'm ashamed to be seen by Lord Song. That's what I'm worried about. I'm afraid that I'll make Lord Song and my husband unhappy, because I know my character and my friends around me have reminded me many times, which is also my dead hole."
Song Nan said with a serious face: "I'm afraid that Lord Yang kept me to say this sentence, hoping to keep the words in his head so that everyone will not be unhappy at the time. In this case, I might as well confide with Lord Yang. Now it is abhorrent that there are traitors in the court today, but in my opinion, the most worrying thing is not this matter, but Defense of the border town. The problems exposed in the Battle of Xinpingbao are really shocking. The Tatar soldiers suppressed the situation, and my side town reacted quickly, which is the current trouble of Daming. No matter how chaotic the court is, the border town must not be chaotic, otherwise there will be a fear of destroying the country. Therefore, I promised my husband to recommend you as a three-sided chief executive, not to form a gang for yourself, but to let Lord Yang well rectify the trilateral defense, so that the border town of the Ming Dynasty is as solid as a golden soup, and the soldiers and horses are like an arm. This is my original intention.
Yang Yiqing got up from his seat and said, "I'm really ashamed. It's simply ashamed to take care of a gentleman's belly with the heart of a villain. Lord Song is young, his broad-minded, and his eyes are so high that I can look at him. Lord Song can't blame me for being stupid and forgive me."
Song Nan's face was slightly feverish. Although her words came from the bottom of her heart, she said that she did not mean to win over Yang Yiqing, which was pure nonsense. Although Yang Yiqing had the ability, there were thousands of people with ability. Why did this good thing fall on Yang Yiqing? Isn't it because Yang Yiqing does not belong to any side of the power and is innocent? He recommended him not only to disgust the internal and external courts, but also hope that he will become one of his own fierce generals.
"Lord Yang, the disadvantages of the three sides are like stubborn diseases, so that the orders are different, the information is not effective, and the soldiers are self-respecting, and the general officers and soldiers in the governor are constrained by each other, which makes the war slow and lose a lot. The re-establishment of the position of the three-sided general system of the imperial court also hopes to eliminate these drawbacks. I hope People don't have to worry about the reaction of me and the British Duke. You just have to do your best to do what you should do. Don't let us be attacked in front of the emperor.
Yang Yiqing said excitedly, "With Lord Song's words, Yang is relieved and bold. Don't worry, Yang does things with a fair heart and will never let the British Duke and Lord Song attack in axiom."
Song Nan stroked his palm and said, "Okay, that's it."
Yang Yiqing arched his hand and said, "But I still have something to ask adults for help."
Song Nan said, "But as long as I can do it."
Yang Yiqing said, "I am determined to rectifying the three sides, so I have to let go of my hands and feet without hesitation, but the complexity of the three sides of affairs is difficult to describe to adults. Once it is rectified, I will offend a large number of people, and even worry about my life."
Song Nan frowned and said, "Is this... Lord Yang worried about his life?"
Yang Yiqing said, "How can I cherish my life? I'm just worried that my wife and daughter will go to work with me. If something happens, won't I have a layer of scruples? Yang doesn't have many good friends in Beijing. I want to leave my wife and daughter in the capital, so that I have nothing to worry about. I hope Lord Song can take care of him. Lord Song is in charge of the brocade guard. Under the protection of Lord Song, Yang has nothing. Worry."
Song Nan's mind flashed the appearance of a girl with a small wild flower and a sweet smile. Yang Yiqing was going to take office in the northwest without scruples, and he must be cruel to the northwest. Seeing that Gu Yang Yiqing's wife and daughter naturally did nothing to Song Nan, just send a team of brocade patrols to protect him.
"Although it is a big responsibility to protect your wife and Ling Qianjin, I have promised, Lord Yang, but please rest assured that when you stabilize the situation in the northwest, I will definitely send you to the northwest without any damage."
Yang Yiqing bowed again and thanked repeatedly.
Coming out of Fenglai Building, although the early winter night was cold, it was exciting. Since the return of Xinpingbao to Beijing, Song Nan has rarely been in such a good mood as today. Under the shadow of Liu Jin's increasingly oppressive shadow, she can successfully jump out of the trap of recruiting son-in-law and launch a counterattack to take the three-sided general system. Zhao showed that he could still move around in the increasingly positive fight with Liu Jin's party.
It has been more than three years since I traveled here. Every step is extremely difficult. The crisis is often accompanied by it, and it is also life-saving. Several times, Song Nan himself is a little desperate, but it turns out that more than 500 years of experience and the thinking of later generations have given him many advantages and opportunities. Up to now, he has been the number one person to speak in the court, and there is also a force around him to support him. More importantly, his family and friends gathered around him give him unforward strength, and Song Nan is full of confidence in the future.
Song Nan took a deep breath, picked up the rein, and slowly galloped into the streets of the capital under the stars.
