Chapter 661 The spy war in Chang Geng City is surging, and Qingliangshan Imperial Force is observing the politics
The second reason is that the officials carefully selected by the Ministry of War are extremely intriguing. Among them, Gao Tingshu, the second-place winner in the new sciences, and Wu Congxian and others were able to become famous in Tai’an City in the same year. Obviously, it would not be enough to rely solely on their identities as the first and third places. If it weren’t for the fact that Shinsanlang spared no effort to promote the poetry and sang together, they would have lost their glory in their politics for two or three months at most. In that yamen, where high-ranking officials are numerous, the Zhao family Weng has been in the yamen for more than 20 years. There is really no shortage of top scholars, second-place candidates, and visitors. As for Jinshi, there is even more count. Who doesn’t know that Jin Lanting, a great celebrity in the dynasty who had the kindness of being accomplice to Gao Tingshu, regarded the father and son of the Xu family in Beiliang as enemies over the years, and the patrol of Yan Chiji and Kong Zhenrong is even more interesting. Because a woman from the Yan family entered Beijing, Yan Jiexi and Yan Chiji became relatives of the emperor. What is even more unexpected is that the fourth prince without ambition can easily break the unshakable shackles of the eldest son in the royal family’s inheritance with an inconvenient attitude, and eventually, he is tepid and smoothly in the south. The father-in-law Yan Jiexi was previously a Grand Secretary of Dongyuan Pavilion, and Yan Chiji, who was often bullied by the playboys in Tai’an City at the beginning of his entry into the capital, has now become the uncle of the current dynasty. Who doesn’t know that when Zi is not only deeply in love with the queen, but he is always as close as a brother when he gets along with this gentle brother-in-law before ascending the throne. Otherwise, Yan Chiji would not have served as the head of the Arsenal Department of the Ministry of War as a Jinshi, and how could he personally see him off on the day of his report, and even let the Minister of War Lu greet him personally. Kong Zhenrong was also from the Northern Liang family. His father Kong Dahe was appointed as an official in Beijing because of his merits and joined the second prince’s disciple. Kong Wuchi and Yan Chiji were both brothers who could wear pairs with the King of Beiliang when they were young. In addition, Li Hanlin, the only one who stayed in Beiliang, the four of them visited together in Beiliang that year, even if there were not a hundred brothels together in Beiliang, they were still seventy or eighty.
This makes me feel very good. The four brothers, not to mention Xu Fengnian, the hereditary border vassal king, even if Li Hanlin had a father who was the second-rank master of Li Yang, he was now a little crossbowman with his official position! Moreover, Li Gongde, who was recognized as an official, had only been a rank of officials for a few days. Before his butt was warmed up, he quickly squeezed out Song Dongming, an outsider. On the other hand, in the capital, not to mention Yan Chiji, who has a transcendent status, Kong Zhenrong is already a popular and powerful figure in the Ministry of War. If you go to local prefectures and counties, no matter how old you are, you must be a brother to Kong Zhenrong and be careful to entertain him. Maybe the latter is not willing to appreciate it.
Since it is the border of the political ruling, of course it is to go to Youzhou instead of Lingzhou, which is known as the Little Jiangnan. Not long after they entered the country, they received shocking news that the Beimang army advanced side by side. Several old men from the Ministry of War originally intended to circle around the relatively calm Youzhou border and give the court an explanation. Then they immediately set off to Jibei and greeted the newly rising Yuan Tingshan. Then they went to the two Liaos and saw Gu Jiantang, the country of Dazhu and the Ministry of War.Mr. Xu Gong. The journey should have been safe and sound without wind and rain, but I didn’t expect that it would be such a difficult situation to enter the eastern part of Youzhou. God knows whether the Northwest barbarian surnamed Xu feels that he has been swept away by the court and is brave. In anger, he simply let the Beiliang border army dress up as the Beimang cavalry and take the group of Guanzong officials of the Ministry of War.
Several old men who had seen the sinister official in the officialdom quickly stopped at a border post station. They went all out overnight but couldn’t discuss a complete plan. However, the young and energetic Gaotings was quite dissatisfied. Not only did he propose to go straight to Youzhou Hulukou, but he also went to the Hutou City, the largest hero in the northwest of Liangzhou to take a look. The old people who were already afraid of the cold were so scared that their mouths were purple. If it weren’t for the second-hand man who was lucky enough to have a good impression of Gu Jiantang and Lu Shangshu, just wait to sit on the bench of the Ministry of War after returning to Beijing. Compared with Gaotingshu, who was not afraid of tigers, the young uncle Yan Chiji, who was gentle and polite along the way, was really acquainted in the eyes of those old foxes in the officialdom. He picked up a wick at the post station several times in a night. Finally, Yan Chiji spoke up an idea, which soon made the old man think more and more “suitable”. The uncle of the country suggested not to go to Youzhou or to the northern line of Liangzhou, but to go directly to the Northern Liang Palace and Qingliang Mountain. Dendrobium Liang, the doctor in charge of the specific affairs of Fang Qingli, pinched his beard and calmed down. He squinted his eyes and said with a smile: “Good.”
Lord Liang became more and more pleasing to this young uncle. It’s great to go to the Qingliang Mountain, which is so shaking the world. No matter how rebellious the King of Beiliang is, even if he dared to send troops to resist the imperial edict, he would not be so bold that he would be so brave to kill people in his palace. Besides, with the real friendship between Yan Chiji, Kong Zhenrong and the King of Beiliang, even if there are not many left, going to the Prince of Beiliang should not be a Hongmen Banquet. Besides, no one has ever heard of the spectacular scene of thousands of carp rolling in Chaohu Lake, so many officials in Tai’an City. The few people had the opportunity to see Gao Tingshu, who seemed energetic after leaving the capital, hesitated for a moment, and finally did not say anything that offends the public. It seems that the identity of Chief Yan’s uncle is indeed not something that he, a second-hand man with an unstable foundation, can challenge him.
When the Guanzheng team stopped to rest at the post station bordering the two prefectures of Youliang, Kong Zhenrong, who had returned home after entering Beijing, found Yan Chiji who was reading the books of sages at night after sitting down. After sitting down, he didn’t say anything. After several years of polishing, Yan Chiji gradually faded away the unfaithful young atmosphere in the hearts of foreigners entering the capital. Moreover, he was full of poetry and literature. After the Yan family became famous, this weak young scholar also became more independent invisibly, which made the father who was a bachelor of the main hall very happy. Kong Zhenrong did not speak, and Yan Chiji did not speak actively. There were only his sound of flipping books and the occasional slight sound of the wick cracking in the room. After all, Kong Wuqi couldn’t hold back his anger and asked in a muffled voice: “Yan Chicken, do you think Brother Feng will be angry? I won’t see us?”
Yan Chiji continued reading, but he seemed not sure, and said softly: “No.”
Chencai shaved off the bearded Kong Zhenrong and touched Hu Zaozi, sighed and said sadly: “You are fine. After all, you have been with that guy Hanlin and Brother Feng for a few years. I have been to the capital several years ago. Last time, Brother Feng went to the capital, my father was confused and tricked me to the south of the capital early, but he didn’t meet him in the end. Yan Chi Chi, you studied more, you said Brother Feng really wouldn’t think that I was unkind and knew that it was such a hamper. Even if I ran away from home, I shouldn’t have gone to the capital with my father.”
Yan Chiji did not flip the book anymore, and stopped on the page at hand, silent.
Kong Zhenrong asked, “Why don’t you go to the Ministry of Personnel or the Ministry of Rites? What are you going to the Ministry of War for? Haven’t you hated blood when you were young??”
Yan Chiji sighed, “It’s because you hate it that you want to go to the Ministry of War.”
Kong Zhenrong rolled his eyes and said, “You scholars have a lot of intestines, and you don’t say anything directly. Others take off their pants and fart them. You are shitting in your pants.”
Yan Chiji’s eyes suddenly became a little sharper, looked out the window, and whispered, “You say to Uncle Kong after you go back, don’t communicate with the Tang King of Jiangnan Road.”
Seeing Kong Zhenrong’s confused appearance, Yan Chiji burst out from his teeth almost one word at a time: “Especially the incident of the Tang King sending people to Beijing to offer auspicious white deer, so that your father must not get involved!”
