retaliate

Chapter 328 What a pity
The music in my mind dissipated, and the dancing posture dissipated.

The emperor looked at Luo Cai indifferently, "Why is it inappropriate?"

Luo Cai knew that Chenzhou could not be said to be the place where the Fourth World War was fought. Officials like Wei Yao couldn't hold their ground, otherwise they would hit the emperor in the face.

"Your Majesty, when Wei Yao was leading the army in the southern border, he was quite arrogant towards his subordinates. The northern border is a place of hundreds of battles, and all the recruits have been warriors over the years. The people in the northern border are tough. If the Shangguan doesn't know how to be considerate, it won't be good. There will be big troubles. Your Majesty, I will die!"

Luo Cai slowly got up and stood with his hands tied.

He knew that he had made the emperor lose face.

If it was a different place, he would definitely not say a word and let the emperor put in his hands.

But that was Northern Xinjiang, opposite the fierce Beiliao.

Can't be negligent!
The emperor looked at him, "I heard that you have been unwell recently? If you fell ill, the outside world will definitely say that I don't know how to sympathize with the old minister."

Luo Cai's face was pale, and he bowed, "I obey."

Luo Cai walked out of the hall.

Looking at the bright spring scenery, he felt a little dizzy, his whole body was light, and his chest felt a little nauseous.

That feeling of wanting to vomit.

"Luo Shangshu."

The people in the palace were the most astute, they could tell at a glance that Luo Cai had fallen out of favor, so even the servant leading the way dared to urge Luo Cai.

"The old man knows."

Luo Cai shook his head, "A little dizzy."

Yang Xuan said that Chenzhou is the most unique place in Northern Xinjiang.The opposite was not Beiliao, but three vicious dogs raised in captivity by Beiliao.He Lianchun in Tanzhou can drive the three major ministries to continuously harass or attack Chenzhou.

This is a trial and error.

If there is a problem in Chenzhou, the Tanzhou Northern Liao army will be dispatched in full force, and Chenzhou will penetrate the defense line that has been maintained for many years in northern Xinjiang.

What's terrible is that the three major departments can launch this kind of probing attack at any time, and if Chen Zhou makes a big mistake, it will be forever.

Chenzhou was penetrated, and the Northern Liao army launched an offensive from the front of Taoxian. At the same time, after Chenzhou broke through to the Northern Liao army, it made a detour to the right, and the main force in Northern Xinjiang was in danger of being pinched from front to back.

At that time, what is the use of Chang'an's anger?
All politicians should know the truth of planning for a rainy day.

Just like a good doctor, he always treats the disease before the disease, instead of waiting for the disease to attack before going to the rescue.

Your Majesty!
Luo Cai smiled wryly.

The emperor has played with power all his life, and in his eyes, checks and balances are probably more important than the country... If he loses power, he would rather abandon the country.

Why did Tang Dynasty have such an emperor...

……

"Luo Cai is sick."

The old thief found out the news.

Yang Xuan is catching a big fish.

Wang Laoer is playing with his swim bladder.

While scraping the scales of the big fish, Yang Xuan asked, "Why?"

He is about to meet Luo Cai, he is in good health!

"It is said that it is a visit to the palace, and it will go home when it comes out."

Yang Xuan was a little puzzled, "Could it be that His Majesty was driven away after admonishing him?"

The emperor hangs out with the imperial concubine in the pear garden all day long. According to folklore, the emperor feels that being an emperor is not as comfortable as being a man.

But you are comfortable all day long and you are not afraid of your waist mutating?
Luo Cai remonstrated, and then the emperor became furious and told him to go home and eat himself.

Poor Lao Luo!
Yang Xuan sighed, Wang Laoer threw the swim bladder casually, Yang Xuan scolded: "This is a good thing."

Wang Lao Er was puzzled, "When I was at home, I would always crush the swim bladder."

Saying that he was really about to stretch his feet, Yang Xuan shouted: "Get lost!"

The old thief squatted beside him and asked, "Mr. Lang, is this thing still edible?"

"Be nice to women, cut it in half, give half to Yi Niang, and half to the lady."

A good thing for nourishing yin!
What is it called in the scroll... isinglass.

Yang Xuan made a fish pot, and the whole family ate it full of praise.

But then came the bad news.

"The court has decided that Wei Yao will be the governor of Chenzhou."

Nima!

What about my assassin?
and also.

Who is Wei Yao?

……

Luo just returned home.

The children and grandchildren were surprised, Luo Cai said: "After a while, the old man will retire."

The old man looked calm, but the children and grandchildren could see the anger and unwillingness under the calm.

No one dared to beep.

At dinner, his son handed him a jug of wine, and Luo drank it.

On the second day, Luo Cai got up, had breakfast as usual, then put on his official uniform, and said casually: "The old man is going to court."

The whole family hid in their room and heard the footsteps outside stop, followed by Luo Cai's sigh.

In the afternoon, Yan Lan, the gentleman invited by the family, came to resign.

"But the children in the family don't obey? Just say it, sir, and I will do it myself." The education of children and grandchildren has always been Luo Cai's focus. For this reason, he specially invited Yan Lan, who had passed the imperial examination, but because of illness, she missed her official career. And the old master came to teach them at home.

Yan Lan has been in the Luo family for two years, and her talent has been unanimously recognized.

Luo Cai remembered that at the end of last year, Yan Lan also said that she would work in Luo's family for another year, but what happened today?
Yan Lan cupped her hands, "Luo Gong, Yan has little talent and learning, and is going home to study hard. If there is a destiny, we will see you in the future."

This is scene talk!
Luo Cai frowned, "But there's something wrong at home? You just have to say it, sir, I don't care!"

Yan Lan sighed, "Yesterday, I had a treat with friends, and there were officials during the dinner."

Luo finally understood, and said, "Come here, prepare some gifts for Mr. Yan."

"No need!"

"It's been a hard two years."

Luo Cai returned to the study.

The eldest son came, "Aye, why did Mr. Yan resign?"

Luo Cai put down the scroll in his hand, "Your Majesty has been wronged for my father, he knows."

The eldest son said, "What does this have to do with him?"

Luo Cai sighed: "He remembered that the old man had promised him, and after a year, the old man would naturally plan something for him. Now that the emperor despises the old man, and people go to high places, he naturally wants to change to someone who can help him." Master."

The eldest son bowed, "So, son, go and invite another gentleman."

Luo Cai said with a smile: "Why is this so. I happen to have nothing to do at home, let them come, I will teach you."

……

Northern Xinjiang sent people, but the ones who were sent were middle- and lower-level officials, not high-ranking officials like the governor.

So when it comes to the position of governor, it is a carrot and a pit.Now that the governor of Northern Xinjiang has no shortage of people, Yang Xuan wants to go back, unless Huang Chunhui can find a new position and recruit him decisively, otherwise he can only change his position as an official.

The old man was obviously much happier, and said that staying in Chang'an as an official is not a bad thing.

Yang Xuan went to the front yard.

The original small family got together.

"Old thief, have you found out about that Wei Yao?"

"We found out. Wei Yao came from a noble family, and both his grandfather and father were the emperor's confidantes."

"Sure enough." Yiniang sneered and said, "Being the emperor still can't forget the slut, bitch!"

bitch +1.
"Wei Yao's official career has gone smoothly since he became an official, and he is quite arrogant. He started his official career in Chang'an, and immediately went to southern Xinjiang."

Yang Xuan rubbed his chin, "This is gold-plated."

"Yes. Wei Yao went to southern Xinjiang to be the county magistrate. He once led an army to attack the rebel tribes. He lost [-]% of his soldiers, but he claimed a great victory. He also gained the title of a soldier. He called himself a famous general of the Tang Dynasty."

The northern border is too dangerous, so those rich and powerful children who are interested in gilding love to run to the southern border.

Hang around in southern Xinjiang for a year or two, destroy several small tribes, and brag about it at home.

yo!

A famous general just came out of the oven.

Immediately back to Chang'an, the reputation of both civil and military skills can be rampant.

This is the way for the children of the rich and powerful to be promoted. Ordinary people do not have such resources. If they are forced to follow suit, they will probably spend their entire lives in southern Xinjiang.

As for the credit...the credit comes out and the Shangguan takes most of it first, and others will grab the rest.When you accumulate enough merit, you find that there is no background, and you can't even find a good place for promotion.

OK, you want a promotion.

But there are people in all the good places, why not...you go to Xijiang?
How about going to that place where no shit is a thing to be a governor?
It's almost a lifetime to wait for a place to go.

You want to make meritorious service, I'm sorry, but there is no such opportunity over there.

You want political achievements, sorry, the poor here, the people are still cunning.

So, you can only squat in Xijiang, regretting that you played gilding with the rich and powerful.

Therefore, not everyone can play gold plating, and no one can help you if you take it off.

Smart people will take the initiative to seek a backer under such circumstances, but why should a backer help you?
What are the benefits?

It's fine if you're talented, and the backer thinks it's not bad to cultivate a talent to serve as his party member.But talent is not Chinese cabbage.

"It's very difficult to get an official from the emperor's confidant family." The old thief smiled wryly, "Mr. Lang, why don't you...stay in Chang'an for a few years!"

"Time is waiting!" Yang Xuan said: "If you want to succeed, the northern border is the necessary foundation. But now I only have Taiping County in my hand, Chenzhou will have a firm foothold, and there is no foundation. If you stay away from the northern border at this moment, the Taiping side It's good to have Cao Ying here, but if I don't return to Chenzhou, all my previous efforts will be in vain."

Yiniang sighed, "Old Dog's confidant has gone to Chenzhou, and it is estimated that it will not exceed two years at most."

The old thief shook his head, "Yiniang, even the old man knows that once the emperor and the courtiers, Wei Yao went to Chenzhou, he will definitely reorganize his own group of people, and after he leaves, the gentleman will go again. I guess I don't know any of them. gone."

"That……"

Yiniang's eyes became more stern, "Lang Jun."

"What's the matter?" Yang Xuan was thinking of a way.

"Tu Chang doesn't seem to have submitted a nomination certificate."

Uh!
Yang Xuan asked: "But who can let him submit the certificate?"

Yi Niang: "..."

The old thief said in a low voice: "Yiniang, you can't be provoked. If you get angry, it's useless for us to join hands with a spear."

"Amazing!" Yiniang said dissatisfied, "No matter how powerful he is, he still has to eat."

You don't want me to ask Aning for some poison, and put it in the food for Tu Chang, right?

Yang Xuan felt that there seemed to be something wrong with the family style and needed to be corrected.

"Yiniang, we are all family!"

"But what should we do about this?" Yiniang was troubled.

"Wei Yao is the emperor's confidant. Huang Chunhui has been asking for reinforcements for many years but there has been no news. Wei Yao is going to the northern border. Needless to say, he transferred [-] horses from Zuo Wuwei to him. It is rumored that it was Wei Yao's Aye who came to find him. It’s really amazing!” The old thief felt that this matter was useless.

"How about this person?" Yang Xuan asked.

The old thief sighed: "Wei Yao's subordinates are quite strict. When he was in southern Xinjiang, he was the first leader to beat many people."

"This is the prestige of the horse, hey!" Yang Xuan was startled, "The prestige of the horse...excellent!"

"What's great?"

Yang Xuan got up, "I'll go out and tell Ah Ning that I won't be home for lunch."

……

After returning from Xijiang, Luo Bing has become Zuo Wuwei's sweet potato, and he always tells the story of defeating the Luoluo guard more than a dozen times every day.

"Lieutenant Luo, someone please see me."

Luo Bing, who was bragging, said to his colleagues: "Wait a minute."

Outside, it was one of Yang Xuan's guards.

"Mr. Lang asked Colonel Luo if he wanted to eat Yuanzhou ramen."

……

Yuanzhou Ramen has room for Yang Xuan.

Luo Bing came in quietly.

Yang Xuan was in the room.

"Are you promoted?"

"It's been a while." Luo Bing sat down, "Speaking of which, I have to thank Yang Zhongyun."

Immediately someone served food and wine.

One bowl of ramen per person.

After eating in a hurry, Luo Bing raised his glass to drink, put down his glass and said, "But something is wrong? Just say it!"

This person is quite loyal...Yang Xuan said: "I heard that Zuo Wuwei has [-] cavalry and will follow him to Chenzhou?"

"Yes." Luo Bing said, "At first, he wanted me to lead the team, but I refused."

As Zuo Wuwei's current top class, Luo Bing naturally wouldn't make wedding dresses for others.

"Who's going?"

"Captain Zhang Kun."

Yang Xuan didn't say anything about it afterwards.

The two drank a few glasses of wine, and because Luo Bing had to go back, they broke up.

When going out, Yang Xuan said casually: "I heard that that person likes to beat his subordinates, it will be very lively."

Luo Bing smiled and said, "Really? Then I have to talk to Zhang Kun and tell him to be more careful. But Zhang Kun has a bad temper, so I'm afraid I won't be able to persuade him."

Damn!

It's a pity that this person doesn't become a civil servant.

……

Zhou Zun returned home.

Zhou Qin was drinking, but it was very dull, the kind for children and women during the festival.

"Drinking is boring!" Zhou Qin was very dissatisfied.

"Aye, I found someone today, and it's not a big problem for Zitai to stay in Liubu."

"It's good to be a doctor, at least get acquainted with Liu Bu."

"Zitai wants to go to northern Xinjiang wholeheartedly, so it's okay to suppress it."

"Well! Where's the wine?"

"Aye, didn't you drink yesterday?"

"The old man forgot."

"You can drink it in the future."

"By the way, Ah Ning asked the old man to drink a glass of medicinal wine every day, and get it."

In order to show his old father that he was restrained only out of concern for his health, Zhou Zun went to drink in person.

Opening the stopper of the wine jar, Zhou Zungang was about to put the grapes in it.

A triangular snake head jumped up suddenly.

"what!"

The Minister of Datang Zhongshu, the head of the Zhou family who is as steady as a mountain, screamed out loud.

A certain guy who was disrespectful for the old laughed very hatefully, "When he was young, he was frightened by the old man, and he was embarrassed when he grew up. Today, he got what he wanted, hahahaha!"

……

Wei Yao is about to set off.

This expert has won five hundred cavalry for him to rely on, and he is going to have a look.

Zuo Wuwei's school field.

"Meet the envoy!"

Five hundred soldiers shouted, but the salute seemed a bit messy.

Wei Yao said dissatisfied: "Who is in charge of the drill."

Zhang Kun stepped forward, with beards all over his face, looking quite vicious.

"Ineffective training!" Wei Yao had to hit Zhang Kun first, lest these arrogant soldiers disobey the command.

He also encountered such soldiers when he was in southern Xinjiang, and then he pulled out the generals and beat them severely, and everyone became obedient.

This is killing chickens and monkeys.

The way he looked at Zhang Kun was a little subtle, but after thinking about it, he thought it would be better to beat it with someone else.

But Zhang Kun refused to accept it, and said, "The subordinates are all the elite left guards!"

Ah!
Wei Yao, who originally wanted to use another person to make an example of others, sneered, "I scolded you, but you have a few rebuttals, domineering!"

What the hell!

Zhang Kun was stunned, "Brothers in the army regard honor as their life, so the gentleman opened his mouth because of poor training and disobedience!"

This is a blatant confrontation!

Wei Yao's face was livid, "Come here!"

The soldiers below did not move.

These soldiers were not willing to go to northern Xinjiang, and they were full of anger.Seeing that Wei Yao was going to use Zhang Kun, who spoke for them, as a trick, he immediately became angry.

Several followers stepped forward.

"Tied! Hit!"
