Mingmen Family

Chapter 358

Speaking of this, he laughed at himself: "I knew that the emperor had such a plan. After all, my father holds the military power, so he can rest assured that I stay in the capital as a hostage."

"But if I stay in the capital, even if I take part in the martial arts examination and win the champion, I can only start as a sixth- and seventh-rank official, and gradually climb up the qualifications in the capital. There is no one who will not be promoted to the fourth rank in ten or eight years; And if you want to be promoted to the third rank, you have to have very outstanding contributions and talents."

Most of the martial arts Jinshi stayed in the Ministry of War in Central Beijing to do civilian jobs, and they went to the barracks to serve as staff officers for later generations.

If you want to be a military officer, you have to start from a small leader, after all, fighting is going to kill people.The generals are not at ease to let Wu Jinshi who can only talk about soldiers on paper lead their troops.It needs to be experienced slowly and rise up step by step.It's just that they are promoted faster than ordinary soldiers, just like graduates of military schools in later generations.

"So I made a time difference. Taking advantage of Duke Wei's mansion and the emperor's defense against my father and me, I used the excuse of being persecuted by my stepmother and left home to go south to do business, and then defected to the army; and then borrowed the last card in Lu Guanyu's hand Only by making great contributions can I be promoted in a short period of time. Otherwise, as long as my father is in control of the army, I will be suppressed for the rest of my life and cannot stand out."

Lu Guanyi is obviously very talented, but because Lu Zhongyong can't stand out, he had to make this bad plan.If he hadn't planned for him, he would have been a dandy for the rest of his life, and he would have been killed by Shi Shi long ago.

Ye Yaming touched his callused hand distressedly: "Actually, it doesn't matter whether you are an official or not, and how big an official you are, I don't care."

"But I care." Lu Guanyi lowered his head and kissed her on the face, "I don't want you to be inferior in front of others, because the other party's status swallows your anger."

His Ming'er is a person who should straighten his back in front of the emperor and princess, be neither humble nor overbearing, and talk and laugh freely.He couldn't see any lady from any aristocratic family in the capital looking at her with contempt when she came out.

They are not even qualified to carry Ming'er's shoes, how can they look down on them?It's just because the men in their family stand taller.

"What's more, your tea stall is getting bigger and bigger. This is a big fat piece of meat. I don't want people to covet and plot against you and the Ye family."

Ye Yaming's nose was sour.

This is the era of imperial power and rule of man. As long as you have the right and status, you can do whatever you want.And businessmen, in this era, are as low as mud, and anyone can step on them.

She dared to set up such a large stall, bought such a large area of ​​tea mountains in Huizhou and Fujian, brought out Longjing, Tieguanyin, and black tea, and opened high-end teahouses in the capital because she stood behind her. Lu Guanyi.

Otherwise, she can only stay in Lin'an City and be a small businessman no different from Jin Baoshan, Wang Kuan and others.With Baoshan in her arms but doing nothing, she will probably die of pain and aggrieved, right?
She sniffed her nose, forced back her tears, and said softly: "But don't you like this kind of life of fighting in court? You want to just watch chess and not make chess pieces. Will you be very tired if you do this? "

Sensing her emotional fluctuations, Lu Guanyi gently held her in his arms.Ye Yaming was afraid of touching his wound, so she froze there and did not dare to move.

Lu Guanyi patted her on the back, signaling her to relax: "It's okay, it's all scabbed over."

Feeling that Ye Yaming relaxed himself, he continued: "If I am in the army, I can only be a pawn, just like my father, even if I become a first-rank general and hold the military power, I will be someone else for the rest of my life." I hold a piece of chess in my hand. But when I return to the hall, I can watch others fight with cold eyes, or be the one who plays chess. The initiative is in my hands."

Ye Yaming thought for a while, then nodded slightly: "That's true."

Da Jin did not have a special cabinet, but was bounded by the official title of the third rank, and senior officials of the third rank took the initiative to join the cabinet.

Once you join the cabinet, you will have the right to speak, and you will be able to become the chess player instead of just passively being a chess piece.

The Ministry of War does not have the right to be transferred to the army, and Lu Guanyi is under the eyes of the emperor, so the emperor should be more at ease with him.

Lu Guanyi was promoted by military merit, and he is also a man who has read military books.Wen Neng advises on wars thousands of miles away, and Wu Neng personally leads troops to fight.Such talents are rare in the entire Jin Dynasty, let alone in a place like the Ministry of War, where the emperor does not want to reuse him, he has no choice but to reuse him.

Therefore, Lu Guanyi has the right to speak in the Ministry of War, and even his promotion to Minister of the Ministry of War is just around the corner.

The higher you stand, the more you can become a person who controls your own destiny.Even now Lu Guanyi has a distinct imprint of a prince on his body.But as long as he stands on a high place, becomes a chess player, and has the military power in Lu Zhongyong's hands, no matter which prince becomes the emperor, he can only win over him, not kill him.

"What's more, the "36 Strategies" you gave is really good. I also want to join the Ministry of War to train more military talents for the Jin Dynasty and strengthen the national strength of the Jin Dynasty. Therefore, the last time I went back to Beijing to get married, I talked to the prince The idea of ​​being transferred to the Ministry of War when I make more military achievements."

Ye Yaming looked up at him with burning eyes: "So you arranged everything, using Shi's death to stimulate Lu Guanyu, and let him take out the last hole card to make military exploits?"

Lu Guanyi shook his head and patted Ye Yaming's back: "I originally wanted to delay for another half a year. After all, I have only been promoted to the fourth rank not long ago. If I make more military achievements, even if the military achievements are impressive, I still have a chance to be promoted to the third rank." Difficulty."

"I didn't expect Princess Zhennan's son to die so quickly." He smiled wryly, "She still wants to use us as gunmen to deal with the three brothers and sisters of the Chu family. How can I bear this? Since she wants to deal with the Shi family, Then I can only help her to make Shi Shi's death come earlier. But fortunately, I have already told the prince about this matter, and he also pushed me to the position of the third rank through all difficulties."

As early as when he was 12 years old, he sent his confidants to Shi's side, and he sent seven or eight of them over the years.He was playing with the idea of ​​casting a wide net and focusing on catching fish, thinking that no matter what, there would always be someone who could gain Shi Shi's trust, stand by her side and become her confidant, while still being loyal to him.

Maybe it's because he and his grandfather selected good people, or maybe it's because of luck that more than one of the people who were sent over became Shi's valet.

In fact, he could have easily killed Shi Shi two or three years earlier.It's just that the time is not ripe, he doesn't want to annoy the Duke of Wei, and he also wants to maximize his benefits.

And Princess Zhennan's move is an excellent opportunity.It's rare to miss it.Besides, he has someone he wants to protect with his life, and he also wants to end Shi Shi's life as soon as possible, lest she stretch out her claws to his wife and children.So this time, he used his tricks and ended up Shi Shi.
