Probably because this general had a more sincere attitude, Sun Li's expression softened a little and he said in a relaxed manner: "I am just a warrior. I only lead the army and train troops on weekdays. Where will you go from now on?
It's not my turn to make the decision, that's a matter for the Privy Council. Instead of working on me, you should find someone who can really decide your future!"
In many people's impressions, Sun Li was an arrogant warrior, vulgar and unruly, with a perverse temperament. But at this time, at the banquet, amid the rouge, he seemed to be showing a sharp mind.
General Jing was slightly stunned and said, "Please give me some advice, general!"
"I don't want to take advice seriously. For the sake of your banquet, I will reluctantly give you some advice!" Sun Li chuckled and pointed: "Xing Guogong is in Jiangling, responsible for the land and water transportation of the army. He is also the privy envoy.
Father Guo Rong, if you want to find a future in the military and political affairs of the Han Dynasty, you should go to Duke Xing!"
After Sun Li finished speaking, General Jing's mood dropped slightly and he smiled bitterly: "What kind of identity is Duke Xing? How can it be that the last general and others can get in touch with him? Doesn't the general know that since Jiangling surrendered, many people have wanted to see him, but they have all been rejected by Duke Xing?
Outside the door..."
"Haha. From what you're saying, I'm a lower-ranking general, so that's why you begged me?" Sun Li asked with his eyes widened.
"I don't mean it at all!" Although this was what he meant, the general shook his head and quickly denied it.
"That's all! It doesn't matter if you have this intention. I am still self-aware, and there is no comparison with Duke Xing!" Sun Li waved his hand.
Loosening his hand from the beauty in his arms and leaning forward slightly, Sun Li said again: "I will give you another trick! You and Gao Baorong have joined the imperial court. If you want to find a future and have a good arrangement, you need to
Meritorious service. The Han Dynasty court never hesitates to reward generals who have made meritorious deeds, and Your Majesty has always been kind to ministers who have made meritorious deeds!"
General Jing replied: "Unfortunately, we are not like the two generals Liang Tingsi and Wei Lin who can go with the army to attack Zhou Xingfeng. If we stay in Jiangling, there is really no place for us to show our talents!"
"Who said there are no opportunities to make meritorious deeds in Jiangling?" Sun Li asked with some satisfaction.
"General, please show me a clear path!" The general handed over.
"Sun Guangxian returned from Tokyo to the south and brought with him the imperial edict to move all the Gao family to the north. You just mentioned this matter. However, Sun Guangxian came to me yesterday and said that there were some people who wanted to stay and not leave.
, reluctant to move, intending to resist the imperial order!" Sun Li's tone became a bit more solemn, and he said: "I plan to send troops to cooperate with Sun Guangxian to carry out the relocation of the Gao clan. I plan to leave this task to you!"
Sun Li looked at the Jing general and said: "I can't decide what arrangements you will make in the future, but for now, I am in charge of Jiangling military affairs. You are under my command, and I can still give you the opportunity to serve the imperial court. How about it? Consider it.
Consider whether to do it or not?”
Hearing this, a flash of hesitation flashed across the general's face, and he said hesitantly: "General, didn't the court say that it would treat the Gao family well? The emperor personally promised to protect his property. Is this using the army to force people to move..."
"What is it?" Sun Li interrupted him forcefully, grunting, gasping for breath, and showing his disdain: "Who is the court's preferential treatment for? There are hundreds of people in the Gao family, old and young, and they can all be high-ranking nobles.
Raised with generous salary?
Some people don’t know how powerful they are without being whipped with a whip or holding a knife to their necks! The imperial court’s orders and His Majesty’s grace are not for them to use against the migration policy. These people have been staying in Jingnan for a long time
, the more they don’t want to move north, the more they have to be forced to do so. If they don’t move, what else can they do if they stay and plan for a future move?”
As he said that, Sun Li looked at him and saw his hesitation, and he became a little impatient: "I leave this matter to you because you have been in Jingnan for a long time and are familiar with the local situation. Do you want to do it?
If you don’t do it, I’ll find someone else!”
"Thank you, general! I will definitely cooperate fully with the imperial policy!" Upon seeing this, the general responded quickly.
The reason for hesitation is that I am still worried about the Gao family. After all, the Gao family has ruled Jingnan for decades, and they are also their vassals. It is inevitable that they have a sense of awe for the "royal family". Moreover, there is a promise of "preferential treatment" from the court.
.
But after what Sun Li said, he quickly realized that with a large family like the Gao family living in Jingnan, there was no reason for the imperial court to give them all preferential treatment. Furthermore, after the Gao family moved north, I'm afraid the future situation would be
It's not as good as penniless generals like them. At least if they serve the court wholeheartedly, they still have a future.
Sun Li then showed a satisfied look on his face and said with emotion: "That's right! But speaking of it, Gao Baoyin was quite sensible and actively responded to the court's order, knowing to sell off his property in advance and prepare to move north.
.”
After hearing what Sun Li said, the general thought again and continued to test: "General Guan is very satisfied with this Dingshixuan. I wonder if it is intentional?"
Hearing this, Sun Li pondered for a while, and then responded with a casual attitude: "This place is really nice! If it is a normal transfer transaction, it is okay!"
The general suddenly understood and smiled: "General, I understand, I will definitely cook it properly!"
He couldn't help but burp, his drunken state emerged, and his eyes became blurry again. Sun Li hugged the two beauties again and greeted loudly: "Come! Drink! I must have fun today..."
"The last general respects the general!"
Soon, the atmosphere at the scene became lively again, like singing and dancing against the backdrop of war.
The Nanping Palace is still a high-security place in Jiangling City. The surrounding streets are guarded by Han soldiers and patrolled closely. Inside the palace, the personal guards belonging to the Gao family also stick to their posts.
Compared with usual, the palace is much deserted. After all, the center of military and political affairs in the city has been transferred to the government office. Although Gao Baorong's actions are not explicitly restricted, nor are visits prohibited, the people who come to the palace, except Gao Baorong's brothers, relatives
, and indeed there is no one else. As for Gao Baorong, he is staying peacefully in his house, seeking his pleasure and being his pleasure, and is still at ease.
A carriage came slowly, breaking the tranquility in front of the palace. The waiter quickly stepped on the stool and opened the curtain. Sun Guangxian was helped to the ground. Looking at the familiar Nanping Palace, his old face could not help but feel a little sad and kind.
The feeling that things are right and people are different.
He came in and waited in the main hall. After returning to Jiangling from Tokyo, he brought with him the imperial edicts from the Emperor of Han and the imperial court. Sun Guangxian officially took over the government affairs of Jiangling as a Han official, which made everyone feel at ease.
During this period, he was mainly busy with two things. The first was to assist Guo Wei in raising money and food in the three states of Jingnan to fund the army. The second was the matter of the Gao family's migration to the north. Of course, for him, it was the third
Two things are a little more difficult.
The maid served tea and drank lightly. Without waiting for too long, Gao Baorong appeared, yawning, looking like he was exhausted and exhausted. Recently, he seemed to be venting his depression about the "subjugation of the country" to his back house.
On the beauty.
"I have met the king!" Sun Guangxian stood up and greeted him, still maintaining courtesy.
Waving his hand, Gao Baorong glanced at Sun Guangxian, pointed to the fourth-grade vermilion official robe on his body, and said, "Mr. Sun, this official robe is brand new and decent. It must be very comfortable to wear it!"
Sun Guangxian showed a reserved smile and responded: "With the new robe on me, I feel as if I am carrying a huge burden!"
"Very good! The imperial court has such faith in Lord Chongsun, so you can also bring some benefits to the people of Jingnan!" Gao Baorong said.
"When you serve as an official, you should benefit your hometown. This is what I should do!" Sun Guangxian.
After a few words, Gao Baorong lost his patience and yawned again: "Mr. Sun is busy with affairs. He doesn't sit in the government office, but comes to the Gu Mansion. What's the matter? Just tell me directly, so as not to delay your official business?"
[Get cash red envelopes] You can get cash by reading books! Follow WeChat and the public account [Book Friends Base Camp], cash/point coins are waiting for you!
Sun Guangxian didn't pay attention to the alienation in Gao Baorong's tone. He knew where his anger came from, so he could understand it. With a kind smile, Sun Guangxian cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, when I return that day, I will tell you everything your Majesty has done."
It is a gift. You should also pack your bags and set off north to Tokyo to pay homage to the Emperor to thank you! There is still no movement in Xiaguan Mansion, so there should be no further delay!"
Sun Guangxian's face was calm, but after hearing his intention, Gao Baorong's face suddenly darkened. After a while of silence, Gao Baorong couldn't help but said: "I have lived here for decades, why do I have to go to Tokyo? The military and civil affairs are all here.
After handing it over, I can live in peace in the mansion..."
"Your Majesty!" Hearing Gao Baorong's complaints, Sun Guangxian interrupted him directly: "The Gao family's move to the north is the emperor's decision. It is not negotiable and must be implemented. Your Majesty has delayed it for a long time, so you should not disobey the order!
I know that the king loves his land and cannot move, but he must not go against the emperor's will. Don't worry, the emperor's promise of preferential treatment has been made clear to the world, and he will never go back on it. When I left Kaifeng, the mansion specially built for you has been completed.
.The Emperor is so sincere. As a vassal, the King should also come to the capital to express his gratitude."
"Now, the people of the Gao clan are all watching the king's reaction. If the king does not move, the people of the Gao clan will be unsettled and intend to resist. Although the imperial court has a policy of preferential treatment, resisting his politics will only wear down the court's patience.
The longer it is delayed, the more disadvantageous it will be for the Gao family!"
Sun Guangxian persuaded him slowly, and the more he spoke, the uglier Gao Baorong's face became.
Seeing this, Sun Guangxian said again: "I heard that Sun Li, the commander of the Xiaodi Army, has planned to move troops to relocate the Gao family to suppress those who come forward to oppose. For the time being, I can still make some maneuvers, but as time goes by,
Otherwise it will be under control.”
"Your Majesty is now the head of the Gao clan. Even if it is for the safety of the Gao clan, you should not disobey the emperor and the imperial court. Please, your Majesty, think carefully!"
After frowning deeply for a long time, Gao Baorong turned his head and looked at Sun Guangxian. Gao Baorong said, "You don't have to say anything, I'll move on!"
Seeing this, Sun Guangxian smiled and said, "Please write a letter from the king to warn the Gao clan and ask them to move as soon as possible. The imperial court has set aside a piece of land in Henan, which is enough for resettlement!"
"Do we need the entire Gao family to relocate?" Gao Baorong frowned.
Sun Guangxian nodded calmly: "Must!"
Facing his eyes and struggling a little, Gao Baorong finally nodded dejectedly: "I'll write!"
