Chapter 2538 Gui Zi Juan temptation and test
“I’ve met Mr. Feng.” Sun Shaozu came from afar and held his hands up repeatedly. Sun Shaozu seemed very humble, but Feng Ziying knew that this man was extremely unruly and domineering in Datong Town.
"Long time no see, Shao Zu. I think this is the third time we have met. The first time was in Jia Mansion?" Feng Ziying tilted her head and thought for a while, "How many years have passed in a flash."
“My lord, I have a good memory. I was still in Datong when I was in a humble position. Alas, it’s hard to look back on the past.” Sun Shaozu’s rough face revealed a touch of complicated emotions and he shook his head, “Sometimes if you make the wrong move, you will lose everything.”
Feng Ziying laughed, this guy is really interesting, but what does this wrong step mean?
Should I listen to Niu Jizong's words, or should I not breed undue ambition?
Or both?
The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit. This is how it is originally. Prince Yi Zhong cannot be said to have been defeated, let alone the bandit. Isn't he now the Wan Tong Emperor?
It’s just that at the moment, he can only temporarily “recuperate” in the palace. Of course, when the matter gradually fades away, he will still come out to “manage politics”.
"Shaozu, there is no need to mention the past. Let's communicate and improve at the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion. You are still young and have many opportunities."
Feng Ziying felt that these words were a bit pale and funny.
Is the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion a place to improve your skills? You can brag and drink tea, come and go when you like, it's just a nursing home.
Of course, it cannot be said to be a pure nursing home. When the critical moment comes, seniors will still be selected here for emergency response.
However, this model is not very good. Perhaps in the future, the Ministry of War and the Fifth Military Governor's Office should establish a comprehensive high-level military academy, similar to later National Defense University and Military Research Institute, to integrate training and exchange of high-level generals?
“Sir, I am no longer young for my humble job. I am already forty. How many forties are left in my life?”
Sun Shaozu felt that Feng Ziying didn't seem to have much disgust or hostility towards him, which cheered him up a little.
"Ji Zhi has been fighting in the border town since he was a child, and he also won the martial arts competition. However, he happened to be injured when he competed for the martial arts examination and failed to succeed. Over the years, he has achieved little in Datong. Mr. Feng is in At that time, his humble position was as a garrison, and later he was promoted to guerrilla..."
Sun Shaozu pulled the strings. After all, when Feng Tang was here, it was also the time when he was promoted from defense to guerrilla.
Of course he didn't follow Feng Tang's path at that time, but Feng Tang didn't block his way either, so the relationship was pretty good.
Feng Ziying once asked her father about this, and Feng Tang also admitted that this guy's own military ability is quite good, and his skills are also good, so it is no problem to be promoted to guerrilla.
"Shaozu, I can feel that you still have some thoughts in your heart. Let's talk about it. The imperial court appoints people on the basis of merit, and the Ministry of War is no exception." Feng Ziying looked at the other party, "As for the matter of Jiangnan, the emperor and the cabinet It’s all wiped away, so you don’t have to worry about it anymore.”
Standing up, and giving a deep clasped fist, Sun Shaozu said in a deep voice: "Your Excellency, you understand this, and I feel at ease."
"You don't need to be so polite. Sit down. Shaozu is in his prime, and he should be serving the imperial court. However, there are naturally many people in the imperial court who are concerned about the Jiangnan matter, so I can only let you go to the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion first. Recuperate,…”
Feng Ziying's words suddenly made Sun Shaozu anxious again, "Sir, as you said, I am in the prime of life. Unlike Wang Gonggong and others, they can recuperate, but I have a temper that cannot sit still, so I still want to ask you, sir. , Shaozu is a rough man and can’t speak. I only know that you, sir, are also from a martial arts background. Naturally, you have a close feeling towards warriors like us. We have also admired you for a long time, including the second Duke of the Ox King. In fact, we also agree with you very much..."
Without any further words, Sun Shaozu also looked at Feng Ziying, full of expectation.
"Shaozu, don't be impatient, haste makes waste, not to mention that it will take time and opportunity for the court to accept you again, right?" Feng Ziying said leisurely: "How can you prove that you have repented and have drawn a clear line with the past? ?”
This sentence made Sun Shaozu wonder how to answer.
That's right, the imperial court did not deal with a traitorous general like me because of his timely surrender, and even left a position for you in the Governor's Mansion of the Fifth Army. This is already very benevolent and righteous. Why should you expect anything else?
Suddenly blessed, Sun Shaozu stood up and bowed deeply with his hands raised, "Shaozu is stupid, please teach me."
Feng Ziying nodded slowly: "Shaozu, you should know the current situation. I can help you. If you want to make a difference, you should have a clear goal."
Sun Shaozu finally came back to his senses. After all, he was a deputy general soldier, so he didn't have any background. He thought for a while and said: "Sir, I know that the situation in Shanxi is not good now. Master Yuan's situation in Shanxi is worrying. It is said that Liu Dongyang is going to be the commander-in-chief. After all, I have stayed in Shanxi, so I have some connections. If possible, I am willing to go to Shanxi Town to help Liu Dongyang reorganize his life..."
Feng Ziying nodded slightly.
Liu Dongyang went to Shanxi Town and brought 40,000 to 50,000 northwest troops, who were Liu Dongyang's direct descendants, but this was not enough.
Shanxi Town has tens of thousands of other miscellaneous troops formed from the Shaanxi Guards. They need a character with sufficient skills and some connections to assist Liu Dongyang.
After all, Liu Dongyang had been in Ganning, and then moved to the Central Plains, and had never stayed in Shanxi.
Chai Guozhu and he are not from the same group. It happens that he also needs someone to take over the people he left behind after Chai Guozhu left. With Liu Dongyang and Sun Shaozu joining forces, it is enough to bring Shanxi Town into his camp.
"Well, that's fine. I can help you make arrangements with the Ministry of War, but Shaozu, do you have any connections with the cabinet?" Feng Ziying nodded.
The Ministry of War is the key. If you cannot pass the Ministry of War, everything will be in vain. However, positions above deputy chief of war also need to go through the cabinet, but only one person from the cabinet needs to mention it.
This is why Feng Ziying wanted to see if Sun Shaozu had any other connections.
Sun Shaozu thought for a while and said, "Shaozu can go to Mr. Daofu to clear the air. What do you think, sir?"
"Okay." Feng Ziying didn't hesitate. Who doesn't have some skills in this position? "You clear the air and get this matter done as soon as possible. Then you will behave well in Shanxi."
