Chapter 144 Parade and boast
"Sir, what kind of medicine is being sold in Governor Li's gourd?"
In the study, Xianggong Zhong did not let the incident in the court affect his mood in the morning. Instead, he splashed some ink and wrote several lines of cursive script. He finished it in one go, which was quite popular among everyone.
As the saying goes, the emperor is not in a hurry and the eunuchs are in a hurry. As a staff member, the master's power becomes more and more powerful, which naturally increases his own power. They complement each other and no one can live without the other.
"Mr. Zhao, don't worry, it should be yours, and it will be yours in the end!" Glancing sideways at the anxious staff, Mr. Zhong said calmly, and then drank a cup of tea, with a faint bitterness lingering on the tip of his tongue, making his
My brain suddenly became clearer again.
Not to mention, Governor Li’s method of brewing tea is really good. Although it is bitter at first, it will give a different kind of fragrance later on, which will instantly relax your tired head.
"As a prime minister, although you have great power, the greater the corresponding responsibilities, the greater the taboo caused. But now it is not bad, it allows me to rest a little!"
"But, I'm afraid that you, a fellow countryman, have bad intentions!" Mr. Zhao was also a Gongsheng student who had been unsuccessful for a long time. He had no choice but to seek refuge with high-ranking officials to make money and to protect his future, he asked for an official position.
What is a prime minister? He is a prime minister who assists the emperor in ruling the world. In Western terms, he is a deputy king. It is his duty and responsibility to recommend officials.
Although one is considered to be of high status only if he or she is a Jinshi, recommendation and support are also important ways out.
"Have bad intentions? Although I am old, it is still not enough to defeat the Han Dynasty with tens of thousands of soldiers and horses. I am still a bit thin. Without us scholar-bureaucrats in the court, he, the governor, cannot issue the decree.
Come to Panyu City!"
Having said this, Xianggong Zhong showed an aura of calmness and authority. Mr. Zhao took a picture of it and said with a smile: "This is how it should be, how it should be!"
"I understand what you mean, no need to say any more!" Mr. Zhong waved his hand and said:
"For now, it is not appropriate for the situation to change any further. Let him, the governor, be at ease for a few days!"
"As for what Mr. Zhao is concerned about, I naturally understand that in a few days, there will be a vacancy in Xunzhou, so you can go. Mr. Zhao has a great talent, and I hope he can live up to it!"
"Thank you, sir!" Mr. Zhao, who was only forty years old, was smiling like a three-year-old child.
"Li Jia, Governor Li?" After saying a few words, Zhong Yunzhang couldn't help but laugh.
Driving those eunuchs out of power is your purpose, but you must not be too greedy. Temporary pride is just paralysis? Just wait!
The victory in the court in the morning made Li Jia cheer for joy. Coupled with the arrival of nearly 20,000 troops from Jianwu Town, Li Jia could no longer control his emotions and was cheerful all day long.
"My lord, the army has arrived, when will it enter the city?" Judge Wang Ning has a rather upright character and directly interrupted Governor Li who was immersed in joy.
"Enter the city? Why enter the city? Aren't the troops stationed outside the city?" Li Jia was a little confused.
"It's not about stationing, it's about showing off your power!" Judge Wang said unhurriedly.
As soon as these words came out, Li Jia suddenly realized. Isn't this the same as later generations of soldiers who entered the magic city and lay down on the streets with guns in hand?
It's just that people are sweeping the world. Military power is enough, but it is just to show that they are close to the people. After all, there are many reactionary houses...
But Li Jia was different. He sneaked into Panyu and was shameless. What he lacked was military power, or in other words, the shock brought by a large number of troops. Twenty thousand people were indeed not enough for Panyu with hundreds of thousands.
"So, don't be afraid of entering the city during the day! Pass through the city, enter from the west of the city, and exit from the east of the city -" Li Jia blinked and suddenly asked:
"Does anyone know about the 20,000 people who came from Jianwu Town?"
"Soldiers and horses are coming. There is too much movement, so we naturally know about it, but I'm afraid it's hard to know the specific number. After all, we have no contact with the outside world in the military camp!"
"That's good, 20,000 people are still insignificant to Panyu City, but what if we add 40,000 people?" Li Jia touched his chin and said with a hint of pride.
"Forty thousand people? Where did they come from?" Judge Wang asked bluntly.
"There are always 40,000 people. Judge Wang, please rest more!" Li Jia patted his shoulder and left with a smile.
"Notice that the army will enter Panyu City tomorrow. From midnight tomorrow, those who do not comply with a certain decree will not be allowed to leave the city!" Li Jia immediately issued the order, and the Governor's Mansion began to operate quickly again.
When your strength is weak, it is quite useful to use deception appropriately.
For example, at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Dong Zhuo entered Beijing with only tens of thousands of troops. He entered the city repeatedly at night and bluffed the imperial army. He then integrated the imperial army and greatly increased its strength.
Li Jia obviously also prepared in this way. No one left the city. Naturally, no one knew that the team entering the city from the west had already circled around and started again.
Not only the Governor's Mansion, but also the Shesheng Division, Jinwu Guards, and even the Yamen of Prince Xing's Mansion were also busy. Tens of thousands of troops entered the city, but it was no small matter.
How to plan the route, how to maintain order, and how to let the entire army enter and leave the city in an orderly manner is also a difficult task.
"Tomorrow, you will enter the city to make your debut. It will be so fun for you!" Seeing Li Xin constantly moving in his chainmail, especially the crystal lattice on his chest, the reflected sunlight irritated his eyes.
pain.
Li Wei shouted, his loud voice making his eardrums hurt.
"It's rare in your life to be in such a position to parade around and show off. I'm afraid only the Jinshi can compare with it. I'll allow you once today!"
Li Xin did not scold Li Wei, but laughed softly. Obviously, tomorrow's parade will greatly satisfy his vanity.
Tomorrow, the whole of Panyu will know his name, and in a few days, it will spread throughout the whole of Lingnan. If this is not honoring the ancestors, what is it?
"Bah, when did we miss you Li Liulang again? Did you just cripple the Left Tiger Army and capture the Right Dragon Tiger Army and the Left Divine Crossbow Army?"
"We have captured Haimen Town and captured Panyu City. Our achievements are greater than yours! Why don't you let us parade in the streets and show off?"
Li Wei looked at Li Xin who looked proud and was quite dissatisfied. He put on a stinky face, as if someone else's biological father had died.
"Why are you yelling at me? I can't make the decision, it's all Lang Jun's arrangement!" Li Xin said lightly, as if he was afraid that he would really go to Lang Jun, and added:
"Mr. Sir, you have already made arrangements. Why don't you put down your temper and come and see how I look like this?"
Seeing Li Xin shining brightly and wearing the general's clothes, his whole person looked more and more majestic, especially his two sword eyebrows, which made his temperament even better.
The jealousy in Li Wei's heart accumulated to another level. He suddenly walked out of the tent and left without looking back, leaving only one sentence:
Chapter completed!
