The minister of the Ministry of War wrote a secret letter to an internal minister, and it was an eunuch who had military power in his hands. This is so unbelievable that Gao Qiqian and Liu Yulie could not be beheaded based on this letter on the charge of "an internal minister befriending a foreign minister."
Too much.【High quality update】
However, when Gao Qiqian took this letter, he felt no fear or worry at all. On the contrary, he was uncontrollably excited. His eyes were fixed on the end of the letter - "I will supervise the division in the near future. Please don't move, please."
The matter under discussion is a foregone conclusion, and great achievements can be achieved at your fingertips. The crisis of Pavilion Elder may be solved in one incident, and brother can also take a step forward."
The settlement is a foregone conclusion, great success can be achieved at your fingertips, the crisis of the elder can be resolved, and brother can go one step further. In just one sentence, a lot of information is revealed.
Liu Yulie, the right minister of the Ministry of War, who was a well-known Jinshi, openly called the eunuch Gao Qiqian his brother in the letter and regarded himself as his younger brother. It has to be said that it is quite shameful. If this letter falls into the hands of outsiders, I am afraid that someone like Cui Chengxiu will
Judgment definitely cannot run away. (Author's note: Cui Chengxiu, the leader of the Five Tigers of the Eunuch Party in the Tianqi Dynasty, was Wei Zhongxian's right-hand man. He became the Minister of the Ministry of War and was granted the title of Young Master. Chongzhen ascended the throne and hanged himself to death) [
Gao Qiqian read the letter again and again, and then he got close enough to light the candlestick and burn it. Be careful because the owner of the letter and the things mentioned in the letter cannot be disclosed to the public, so keep this letter.
, it can be used as an excuse, but the consequences are also very poor. Today's emperor is most afraid of his internal ministers making friends with foreign servants, so it is better to burn this letter to avoid causing trouble for himself. Anyway, the things mentioned in the letter are kept in his heart.
God knows what the earth knows and I know what to do, so what should I do if I leave this written thing behind?
Watching the letter turn into ashes little by little, he raised his head and smiled brightly. Liu Yulie's promise made him very excited. After waiting for so many days, things finally became clear.
He raised his hand and asked Bai Shangyi, who was standing aside, "Who is here to deliver the letter?"
Bai Shangyi said: "Qu Yiyang, an official of Shuntian Prefecture."
"An official from Shuntian Prefecture?" Gao Qiqian was a little surprised. How could Zhang Guochen send such a person to deliver the letter? Isn't he afraid that the letter would fall into the hands of outsiders or be leaked?
After thinking about it, I felt that this person to be the messenger was a bit strange. Gao Qiqian pondered for a moment and told Bai Shangyi: "Call him in. We still have something to ask him."
"Yes, father-in-law."
Bai Shangyi responded and hurriedly went out of the tent to call for someone. After a while, he led the Shuntian Prefecture official Qu Yiyang into the tent.
"I have met Eunuch Gao!"
It was really too cold. Even though he was wearing a big coat, Qu Yiyang was still shivering from the cold. As soon as he entered the tent, there was a rush of warmth, and the red charcoal fire made him feel refreshed. Seeing Gao Qiqi,
He also had to kneel down and bow down, but perhaps because he had been out in the cold for a long time, his knees were a little stiff and he couldn't bend down for a while, which was a bit difficult for him.
Seeing this, Gao Qiqian smiled slightly and signaled Qu Yiyang not to be too polite. He pointed to the chair and said kindly: "Master Qu, please sit down."
"I don't dare, I don't dare. There is no place for a lower official to sit in front of my father-in-law. I'd better stand as a lower official." Gao Qiqian was polite, but Qu Yiyang didn't dare to sit. With his status as a sixth-grade official, he really
I didn't dare to sit down in front of the eunuch who was the chief of ceremony and the admiral of the capital camp.
Qu Yiyang didn't dare to sit down, and Gao Qiqian naturally wouldn't force him to sit down. He sat down by himself, pretending to look through the military situation of the past few days, and asked casually: "I heard from my subordinates that Mr. Qu is from Shuntian Mansion."
Officer, logically, you are from Shuntian Prefecture and should have nothing to do with the Ministry of War, but I don’t know why Mr. Qu would send a letter to our family on behalf of the Ministry of War?" The implication is that this letter is in the name of Zhang Guochen, the head of the Ministry of War.
But why did you, an official from Shuntian Prefecture, act as a messenger? Shuntian Prefecture and the Ministry of War are two completely unrelated yamen, so your identity as a messenger, Qu Yiyang, is really a bit strange.
After hearing Gao Qiqian's words, Qu Yiyang said calmly: "Go back to my father-in-law, I am here to be entrusted by others."
"Entrusted by whom?"
"Sir Liu Yulie, the right minister of the Ministry of War."
"Master Liu asked you to deliver a letter to our family?"
"Sending a letter to the father-in-law is one of them, and being ordered to contact Kong Youde about appeasement is another."[
"Are you talking to Kong Youde about recruitment?"
Gao Qiqian was startled, and couldn't help but look at Qu Yiyang again, and found that the other person's appearance was still upright, and he was probably about the same age as himself, at most forty years old. His brows and eyes looked very capable, and he didn't look like a mediocre person.
An official seems to be a capable person with great ambitions.
But even if Qu has some abilities, he is just an official who cannot get on the stage after all. Liu Yulie sent him to talk to Kong Youde about recruitment. Isn't it too slight? If Kong Youde thinks this is the court's disapproval of him.
If you don't pay attention to someone and then don't want to accept the care, wouldn't that be a big mistake?
Liu Yulie, Liu Yulie, you were the one who told me to stand still, and you were the one who restarted the appeasement. Our family wholeheartedly thought that this could be done, but at the critical moment you sent such a small soldier here. If the appeasement failed because of this, what would you do to our family?
Tell the emperor!
The more Gao Qiqian thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt. He couldn't help but feel angry at Liu Yulie's actions. He even regretted that he should not have listened to Liu Yulie's words. He had 20,000 elite soldiers but stood still and watched the rebels continue to besiege Laizhou City.
But Qu Yiyang has the ability to observe faces. When he saw Gao Qiqian like this, he knew what he was thinking. It was not that he thought that his official position was low and he was not worthy enough to talk to Kong Youde. He was not angry at the moment, let alone belittle.
Instead, he leaned over and said, "I'm afraid my father-in-law may have misunderstood. Although Xiaguan came to talk to Kong Youde on the order of Mr. Liu, he only represented Mr. Liu privately. This official matter still needs to be thanked by the governor.
Although I am in charge, the lower officials dare not make any independent decisions."
So that's it. Gao Qiqian nodded. Xie Lian is the new governor of Denglai and a local official in the imperial court. It is only appropriate for him to come forward to talk to Kong Youde. I think this Qu Yiyang is very capable, no matter what his status is.
It was impossible to just call the shots and talk to Kong Youde, because I was afraid that just as he said, he came to Laizhou just to coordinate on behalf of Liu Yulie.
The worries in his heart were relieved, Gao Qiqian calmed down, and then asked Qu Yiyang with some curiosity: "We don't understand, why Liu Shilang is so sure that Kong Youde will accept the imperial court's recruitment? Sun Yuanhua's lesson is right in front of him, then
Kong Youde is also a treacherous general, isn't Liu Shilang afraid that Kong Youde will cheat again?"
"This is it"
Qu Yiyang smiled softly and said: "To be fair to my father-in-law, in fact, since Sun Yuanhua came to Beijing, no one in the court dared to discuss it. My father-in-law also knows that since Prime Minister Zhou was dismissed, Wen Tiren has become the dominant party. Mr. Liu is the leader of Zhou Dynasty."
Naturally, the prime minister would not be tolerated by Wen Tiren when he was single-handedly promoted. Therefore, Mr. Liu was very committed to the matter of Denglai. However, things in the world tend to become faster, so that the father-in-law would know that this promotion was not done by Mr. Liu and Mr. Liu.
Chief Zhang had a whim, but Kong Youde himself wrote a letter to Mr. Liu. The letter contained sincere words, requesting Mr. Liu to come forward to appease them on behalf of the imperial court.
Out of compassion, Mr. Liu wanted to share the worries of the imperial court. Firstly, he would solve the Denglai rebellion as soon as possible so that the imperial court would not waste more money and food. Secondly, he would also give Kong Youde and others a chance to be used by the country. After all, Kong Bu was the leader of the country.
He is an elite soldier and a strong general. He can be defeated by the imperial court and destroyed by the Ming Dynasty himself, which is always detrimental to the country. Thirdly, it is also for the sake of my father-in-law. If the rebels can be put down without spending a single soldier, such a great achievement
It is enough for my father-in-law to return to Beijing in triumph. By then, who else in the inner court can challenge my father-in-law's position."
What he said made Gao Qiqian nod his head repeatedly, especially the last sentence, which brought a smile to his face, but he was still worried.
"Sun Yuanhua, the former governor of Denglai, recruited Kong Youde several times, but Kong Youde repeatedly pretended to surrender. How can our family be sure that he is really willing to surrender? If something happens to him again, wouldn't our family end up like Sun Yuanhua?
?"
Qu Yiyang did not worry about Gao Qiqian. He was very sure: "Don't worry, my father-in-law, but the official has actually been in contact with Kong Youde's people. Kong Youde has sincerely repented this time and sincerely accepted the offer. He said that as long as the new governor of Denglai
Xie Lian met with him to discuss the oath of alliance, and he immediately led his troops to accept the recruitment. From then on, he will serve the Ming Dynasty wholeheartedly and will never have second thoughts again!"
"Um."
Gao Qiqian nodded slowly at first, then shook his head and said with a bitter look on his face: "Xie Lian is trying his best to lead the battle. He and Zhu Wannian, the prefect of Laizhou, jointly submitted a petition to the court, stating that they would never fight with the rebels again.
Regarding the recruitment matter, the rebels have besieged him in Laizhou for many days, and the two sides have been fighting to the death. How can Xie Lian change his mind and talk to Kong Youde about the recruitment matter? I am afraid that Mr. Liu is a little willing."
He didn't want Qu Yiyang to hear this, but he said calmly: "Don't worry, my father-in-law. As long as there is an imperial edict, Xie Lian must obey it no matter how unwilling he is."
"Imperial edict?" Gao Qiqian was startled, his face looked joyful, he stood up and said excitedly: "Why, the emperor has already agreed to appease Kong Youde?"
Qu Yiyang shook his head and said: "No."
"No?" Gao Qiqian was stunned and murmured: "Without an imperial edict, how could Xie Lian be willing to initiate the appeasement, and how could Kong Youde be willing to accept the appeasement? If the appeasement fails, our family will be in big trouble."
"Actually, it doesn't matter whether there is an imperial edict or not. What's important is that my father-in-law is here." Qu Yiyang said unhurriedly, with an incomprehensible expression on his face, and his eyes were rolling up and down on his face. He was like this
The words are profound.
"What do you mean? You want our family to fake the imperial edict?" Gao Qiqian's heart began to beat loudly, and he vaguely knew what the man surnamed Qu was going to say next.[
Qu Yiyang did not respond directly, but bowed and said respectfully: "Success or failure is in the hands of my father-in-law. I think my father-in-law knows better than my subordinates about how to do it."
As soon as he finished speaking, Bai Shangyi walked to Gao Qiqian's side in fear and whispered: "Eunuch, I heard that the emperor hates the affairs of the emperor. If the father-in-law falsely sends an imperial edict to Xie Lian to restart the affairs of the emperor, I will be worried.
The emperor will tell you when he finds out.”
Gao Qiqian was also frightened and hesitant, but before he could think about it, Qu Yiyang's voice came to his ears, "As long as the affairs are successful, my father-in-law will not pretend to pass on the imperial edict, but will contribute to the country!"
