In Wei Jingyuan's view, it was no small matter that the bosses of Dongchang and Jinyiwei appeared at the same time. Coupled with Chang Yu's words just now, he concluded that he came for Wang Jimo, but then he thought that Wang Jimo was in Yanghe Mansion.
, yes, come to Datong to collect evidence.
Chang Yu smiled slightly at this and did not answer directly. Instead, he asked Mr. Wei: "What do you think of Jiang Yu?"
"General Jiang?" Wei Jingyuan frowned and was shocked. It seemed that the involvement was not small this time, but he didn't know why.
"It's hard to describe this person. He seems to treat people peacefully, but in fact he is very sophisticated and very knowledgeable." As the governor, Wei Jingyuan was in charge of the military and civil affairs of the place and had many contacts with Jiang Gu. His evaluation of this person was quite fair.
"Is it possible that Mr. Jiang..."
Chang Yu snorted coldly: "This man is scheming. He does one thing on the surface and does another behind the scenes. He has both sides, but in reality he is just a villain!"
Only then did Wei Jingyuan suddenly realize that the knife was pointed at Jiang Yu.
"What did Mr. Jiang commit?"
"Suspicion of collaborating with the enemy," Chang Yu said calmly.
Ah! Wei Jingyuan was shocked: "Impossible! The Jiang family has been a general for generations, and Jiang Yu has many soldiers as the commander-in-chief of a town. Why would he want to collaborate with the enemy? Is there any evidence?".
Although he knew that his character was not good, he still didn't believe that Jiang Quan was in cahoots with Wei Jingyuan.
Chang Yu secretly sighed, this is Jiang Quan's first-rate acting skills, which is also known as scheming. Historically, when the bandits attacked Ningwu, he had already sent people to surrender and ostensibly dispatched troops and generals in Datong City.
The entire army was mobilized and prepared to defend the city to the death. When Zhou Yuji sent people to ask for help, Wei Jingyuan asked him to send troops, but he couldn't do it on the pretext that he didn't have soldiers, pay, and food.
Wei Jingyuan went bankrupt and spent nearly a thousand gold, and went to Dai Wangfu to ask his grandfather and grandma to borrow food and salary. However, Jiang Yu used the borrowed food and salary to reward the soldiers to win people's hearts and did not send troops. He also secretly spread the news that Wei Jingyuan was collaborating with the enemy, which led to Dai's death.
There was an estrangement between Wang and Wei Jingyuan, and he even killed a servant of the Wei family in anger. However, the manipulator behind the scenes, Jiang Yu, was still calling Wei Jingyuan brothers and pretending that nothing had happened.
It was not until the moment when the thieves broke into the city and he killed Prince Dai that the thieves entered the city and revealed their true colors. At this time, Wei Jingyuan was still recovering from his injuries at home and did not even know that the thieves had entered the city. This shows that Jiang Yuduo has superb acting skills and is able to hide his secrets.
So deep, even the Oscar-winning actor felt inferior.
"We have received a secret report and are checking it." Chang Yu looked at Wei Jingyuan and said calmly: "This matter is confidential, but Mr. Wei is not an outsider. Telling you to know also means to let you take precautions. Jiang Yu appears to be kind, but in fact he is broad-minded.
Narrow, flaws will be reported. Mr. Wei has worked with him for a long time, and it is inevitable that there will be some resentment. It may not be mentioned to you, but this person will hold a grudge. You need to be careful about his secret efforts in the future."
Just like when he reminded Zhu Zhifeng in the Xuan Mansion, Chang Yu deliberately exaggerated and provoked relations, but his purpose was just to make them wary. It is strange to say that the three towns and three governors of Xuan Da are not a toy, and they are not even
They surrendered after the war, but the governors all chose to commit suicide to serve the country.
"It's unbelievable. Why did he do this?" Wei Jingyuan turned a deaf ear to Chang Yu's reminder. Instead, he cared about Jiang Yu. He is really not afraid of death. Think about it, he didn't care about being close to him in the court.
Worry and Chongzhen got into a fight. Later, when the rebels broke through Datong, they also cursed Li Zicheng angrily, "You have the guts to kill me." However, Li Zicheng loved his talent and felt his loyalty, so he didn't even kill you even if he scolded me. In the end, Wei Jingyuan had no choice but to commit suicide.
"If you live in wealth for too long, you will become greedy for life and afraid of death. The more things you have, the more afraid of losing them. But to put it bluntly, you have no faith. You don't know how to be loyal to the emperor, let alone love the people. It's too selfish." Chang Yu said lightly,
Wei Jingyuan looked up at him in a daze, looking thoughtful.
Chang Yu knew that he was stubborn and would accept death, so he had to give him real advice in order to convince him: "Mr. Wei, do you still remember that at the beginning of the first month of the first lunar month, when the rebel army launched its troops, Governor Wang Jimo ordered Jiang Quan to guard the Yellow River?
What?"
Wei Jingyuan was startled and nodded slowly: "That's when?" He said with a sad look on his face: "No wonder, no wonder the bandit army crossed the Yellow River so easily!"
"The bandit army has defeated Pingyang Prefecture and will march into Taiyuan in a few days. Our family urged them several times last night to mobilize troops to Taiyuan, but they pushed back several times and decided not to go. In return, they paid for their food and wages.
On the grounds that it is not enough, we refuse to mobilize troops.”
"How could such a thing happen?" Wei Jingyuan was horrified. At this time, he believed Chang Yu's words. In fact, in history, after the intruders broke into Taiyuan, he asked Jiang Yu for support several times, but was rejected. He supported Ningwuguan.
Being rejected, the defense of Yanmen Pass was rejected, but these things have not happened yet at this time, otherwise Chang Yu would really be hammered to death once he listed them, and he would not be able to believe it.
"Eunuch Chang, you are here with payment, could it be that..." Wei Jingyuan asked quickly.
"This is the second thing our family wants to discuss with Mr. Wei. The imperial court cannot raise enough money, only more than 500,000 yuan, and the Xuanfu has given out more than 100,000 yuan. Now there are only more than 300,000 yuan left, but only in Datong.
There is a shortfall of four to five million, not to mention that there are still big holes to be filled in Taiyuan." Chang Yu sighed.
"This, this, there is nothing a lower official can do." Wei Jingyuan also sighed: "Wars have continued for years, the people have been displaced, and the food harvest has been lost... The imperial court is shameless, and the lower official..."
"The imperial court is raising funds now, and it is estimated that the money will arrive in less than ten days. However, the war is urgent at this time, and it is necessary to fill the gap in the blade and stabilize the morale of the army. So there is only one way at the moment, and that is to borrow money and food!" Chang Yu leaned closer and whispered!
said
"Borrow it? Who can borrow it?" Wei Jingyuan was startled at first, and then his eyes lit up: "On behalf of the king?"
"Otherwise, who else is there?" Chang Yu smiled and touched his hands.
"But will the acting king borrow it?" Wei Jingyuan immediately looked embarrassed. The richer the rich, the more stingy he is, and because the court's credit is now overdrawn, whoever borrows it will be stupid!
"It will only take ten days. In addition to Mr. Wei's face, the King of Times should be able to borrow it." Chang Yu smiled faintly. He speculated that the King of Times should not have an enmity with Wei Jingyuan at this time.
"Hey, I can't get enough money for my humble face like this," Wei Jingyuan said modestly, with a relaxed expression on his face. He seemed to be somewhat confident: "But I can give it a try, and by the way, if Eunuch Chang is free, we can come with him."
go".
"Our family just has a lot of free time, but wouldn't it be better if we brought Wang Jimo with us?"
"Is Governor Wang in Datong?" Wei Jingyuan looked stunned. He had an injury on his foot recently, rarely left the house, and knew little about foreign affairs.
"On the way here" Chang Yu smiled lightly: "But let's sum it up first and see how we can get King Dai to borrow money."
The two of them were whispering in the hall, and before they knew it, it was already noon. Wei Jingyuan enthusiastically invited him to have lunch together, and Chang Yu happily agreed.
Although Chunxiang and other attendants could not attend the banquet, they did not neglect it in the Wei Mansion. Two banquet tables were set up in the side room. The banquet was extremely rich, which made them full after eating dry food for several days.
"Brother Chun, Brother Chun, it's not good, it's starting to happen outside." Just after dinner, when Chunxiang and others were basking in the sun on the porch of the side courtyard, a eunuch trotted in, but after dinner, he was taking over the surveillance outside the house.
Those two tracking people.
"Who are you having sex with?" Chunxiang and the others shouted as they jumped to their feet.
"It's just the two people who were following them. They brought people to provoke them. Brothers were so angry that they did it..." Chunxiang and others walked out and listened to the reason: It turned out that since Chang Yu and others entered the house, those two people who were following them
When they saw a few eunuchs staying outside the mansion and sneered at them, they knew that their whereabouts had been exposed, so they simply wandered around in front of the mansion carelessly, criticizing Sang and Huai.
Other eunuchs might have tolerated it, but Chang Yu's subordinates were all trained to a bloody level. If they couldn't bear the cowardice, Hula surrounded the two of them and yelled and cursed them repeatedly.
Only then did the two of them realize that these eunuchs were not weaklings, and they ran away in despair. However, they didn't expect it. Just after lunch, the two of them came with more than ten people and pointed directly at the eunuchs at the gate of the governor's office.
The soldiers yelled and cursed.
You must not be able to bear this. Although the other party is in large numbers, the eunuchs are not timid at all. They have fought with gangsters and fought with thieves, but they can still give in in front of these unworthy servants, so they just pounce on them and do it.
He got up and immediately ran into the house to report the news.
"Do you want to say something to Brother Chang?" Jiang Quan asked.
Chunxiang looked back and saw that Chang Yu and Wei Jingyuan were in the study room talking about something unknown, but they had left a message not to be disturbed at will.
"Let's talk after the fight, hurry up, don't let the brothers suffer!"
