As the saying goes, a thousand cups of wine is too little to drink with a close friend, but half a sentence is too much to say without speculation.
In fact it is.
Qi Yu and Yin Junnai were close friends who had known each other since they were young. They both took the imperial examinations and became officials at the same time. They were both colleagues and fellow villagers, so their relationship was not an ordinary one.
Under the influence of alcohol, the two people who knew the basics spoke freely and soon entered a state of drunkenness.
Fortunately, Yin Jun wanted to do this on purpose, otherwise Qi Dalang, who had a poor drinking capacity, would have been lying on the table.
"Village man, I have a drunken question to ask you."
"Since it's a drunken talk, let's wait until you're drunk before you say it!"
cut!!
Yin Jun rolled his eyes at him angrily, but still thought to himself: "Suppose one day, you have the military strength to dominate a country, then at that time, can you do me a big favor?"
help?
What a joke!
Qi Yu flashed his drunken eyes, nodded and said, "Then tell me, what do you want me to help you with?"
"Help me... destroy the Fuso Kingdom!"
"What?...Destroy...the country?"
Hearing this, Qi Yu suddenly trembled, and his lingering drunkenness suddenly sobered up.
Looking at Yin Jun again, his face was solemn and solemn, with no intention of joking at all.
"I said, are you serious?"
"certainly!"
After saying that, Yin Jun sighed and said Qi Qiran: "To tell you the truth, I am still brooding about being kidnapped by the Japanese pirates. Even though so many years have passed, I still can't let it go. If this shame is not repaid,
I will never rest in peace until I die."
This was a major stain in his life that would never go away.
And it's very damaging to your reputation.
If he hadn't been in a high position now and held the power of deterrent impeachment, he might have been made a joke by some bold little people.
Qi Yu pursed his lips and asked, "Let me ask, why do you suddenly ask this question?"
"That day, you announced in the court: In the near future, our Dafeng Dynasty will have people coming from far away. It can be seen that you have some intention of destroying the country. In this case, why don't you help me to control the Fusang Kingdom?
Are you going to destroy it? Haha, if one day you really compete with Fusang, I will definitely go to the front line to reward the troops, and I will never break my promise!" Yin Jun said with a solemn expression.
Alas, the metaphor in that sentence specifically refers to Annan's child. How could you associate it with the head of Fusang Kingdom?
However, this idea is very constructive and worth exploring.
Qi Yu weighed the matter and said, "It is not appropriate for me to take the lead in attacking Fusang. It is best to let the Minister of War take the lead. From an overall perspective, the reason why the imperial court built the Kunpeng Navy is for defense.
Fusang Kingdom across the sea has such a good opportunity, why don't you lobby for it? In my opinion, you should try your best to encourage His Majesty to send troops to attack Fusang's home base eastward. If the imperial army wins by then, I will stand still.
If they are defeated, I will immediately send troops north to reinforce them. What do you think of this?"
When Yin Jun saw that he refused, he immediately became happy and said with a smile: "Okay, you can develop your Qiongzhou with peace of mind. I will help you hold down the position in the court. I hope that one day you can spread your wings to help me."
The Fuso Kingdom has been wiped from the map forever."
Drink, you are so bold!
I like!
However, the ideal is very full, but the reality is very backbone.
Qi Yu sighed quietly and said: "Destroying a country is a military war, how can it be as simple as you think? To be honest, although we in Qiongzhou currently have the capital to establish a foothold, we are still far from being able to destroy the country. At least
, it will take three to five years."
Yin Jun looked a little disappointed and said sadly: "Does it take so long?"
"Ah... you still call it a long time?" Qi Yu glared at him and said sternly: "Military development requires step by step. No one can become fat in one bite. Only by fighting steadily can we remain invincible."
This is a fact.
If you can increase your combat power by saying a lot of blood and saying a few harsh words, then is there any need to develop technology?
In fact, Yin Jun just said anxious words because of his excitement, and he suddenly understood after he calmed down.
Qi Yu was greatly relieved when he saw that he was no longer trying to get into trouble, and he smiled and said: "If you want me, Qiongzhou, to develop smoothly, try your best to help me speak up in the court to create a favorable public opinion environment for me, otherwise
, I would be greatly distracted.”
"How do you say this?" Yin Jun asked confused.
"Qiongzhou's development today is largely due to the two privileges granted to me by His Majesty, one is to relax the maritime ban, and the other is to act expediently. Without these two Shangfang swords to protect me, it would be difficult to
I can't guarantee that those political opponents with ulterior motives will seize my pigtails and criticize the impeachment, which will then hinder my progress." Qi Yu first looked back on the past.
Then, he looked forward to the future and said: "Qiongzhou will have a bright future. The reason is because His Majesty granted me the right of autonomy. It is precisely because of this right that I can explore in an eclectic way.
Talents, promote talents. If the Ministry of Personnel is allowed to appoint officials, the capable generals under me will basically be purged and replaced. Take Peng Wenchang as an example. His reputation is just a scholar.
Judging from the standards, he is not even qualified to be a county government official, let alone a provincial government official. Just imagine, if I can't even create a smooth team, how can I talk about long-term development?
"
As the old saying goes, every emperor has his own ministers. In fact, the same is true for local officials. Without a team loyal to them, they will not be able to maintain unity in governance.
People are not only the primary productive force, but also the key factor that determines success or failure.
Seeing Yin Jun nodding, Qi Yu concluded: "The three privileges I mentioned just now are not only due to His Majesty's wise decision, but also due to the help of people in the court, so they can be achieved. If you really
If you want to help me, just do more public support for my autonomy, and at the same time, impeach and kill the factors that are unfavorable to me."
Yin Junnai is a knowledgeable and talented man, so he naturally understands it as soon as he hears it, so he replied to him: "Just go ahead and do it. Regarding the matters in the court, I will help you with it."
"Haha, thank you for your kindness. Everything is in the wine. Let's go!"
"Drink...oh, by the way, my sister..."
"Stop! I have a sudden pain in my stomach. Could it be that I'm going to have a seizure? Well, you just eat here by yourself. I'll come back when I go..."
…
Three days flew by.
Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year, the first day of the new year.
When the Yin time came in the early morning, Qi Yu took a shower and changed his clothes under Liu Quan's attendance. He put on a brand new second-grade court dress and a bright ivory wat. After everything was in place, he took the
The four carriages headed towards the palace.
Along the way, he paused from time to time to say "Happy New Year" to colleagues he met by chance.
It won't be long, it's coming.
From a distance, you can see that all around the main entrance of the palace are red lanterns hanging high, which is solemn and solemn but also full of peace and joy.
Qi Yu opened the sedan curtain and couldn't help but feel fascinated: I wonder what your Majesty will say today?
