Rebirth of Zhu Di's son

Chapter 332 Countdown to Wala’s demise

Two days later.

early morning.

Inside the camp in Blackwater City.

The Shaanxi and Pudu governor's office is on temporary duty.

Song Ying was on duty today. As soon as she walked into the duty room, she saw Jiangyin Marquis Wu Gao and Pingyang Boqu Neng getting up and walking out.

He quickly stepped forward, bowed and saluted, "I've met Governor Wu and Governor Qu."

Wu Gao greeted: "Tiancai, you came at the right time, let's welcome the two kings of Wala together!"

Qu Neng nodded and said, "Let's go."

"The Second King of Wala?"

Song Ying couldn't help but asked with doubts on her face: "Could it be someone newly conferred by His Majesty?"

Qu Neng stroked his beard and said, "Yes, your Majesty just issued a decree last night, appointing Nie Liehu, the son of the former Xianyi King Taiping, as the new Xianyi King, who will continue to rule the Erhut tribe, and appointing the former King Anle to control the Vultures. Luo's brother made Tuluba the new King of Anle and continued to rule the Onyila tribe."

"But according to the itinerary, wouldn't it take seven or eight days for them to camp in Blackwater City?"

Song Ying followed Wu Gao and Qu Neng and expressed her confusion while walking out.

"King Tuohuan of Walashunning had strong troops and strong horses. He defeated the Turhut and Aoyila tribes and fled in all directions. He also captured a large number of cattle, sheep and horses. Nieliehu and Tuluba had long been unable to stay in Moxi. After going down, they didn’t want to die, so they fled south desperately and came to this camp to seek justice against His Majesty.”

Qu Neng explained: "I met the commander of Wala Sandusi on the way, so I followed him."

Song Ying thought about it and said, "If we follow what Governor Qu said, then wouldn't all of Moxi have fallen into Tuohuan's hands?"

"This man is too ambitious. Your Majesty will never let him go. As the saying goes, prosperity will inevitably lead to decline, and he will die sooner or later."

Wu Gao groaned.

When the three of them were walking, a clerk suddenly came. He bowed to Qu Neng, raised his hands and saluted, "Governor Qu, I have something to report to you."

"You two go first, Qu will come later."

Qu Neng said hello to Wu Gao and Song Ying, and then followed the clerk to check the room.

After a while.

Under the corridor of the government office.

As Wu Gao walked away, he said meaningfully in a voice that only he and Song Ying could hear: "Brother Tiancai, how are you doing with the documents we gave you?"

Song Ying knew the truth and asked: "Master Hou, are you asking for the list of numbers of the troops accompanying the Northern Expedition?"

"Exactly." Wu Gao nodded.

"Master Marquis, I am in a dilemma now!"

Song Ying quickly raised her hands and said, "Governor Qu seems to have another candidate."

"Listen carefully, Qu Neng has been secretly forming a clique for personal gain for a long time. Sooner or later, his reputation will be ruined."

Wu Gao suddenly stopped and lowered his voice: "You and I must act impartially and not show favoritism."

Song Ying, of course, understood that Wu Gao had other intentions, bowed slightly and said: "That's what the governor taught me."

Although he is not an official of the governor-general, he is the commander-in-chief of the governor-general. At the same time, he is under the leadership and control of the military staff and the military and political governor. Therefore, when facing Wu Gao and Qu Neng, he calls himself a "lower official" is not flattery, and both Wu and Qu are both He can be assigned errands within his duties.

"Just follow our list and submit it to His Majesty."

Wu Gao thought for a while and decided that it would be better to give his instructions directly, so he continued: "Remember, you must be consistent with me during court discussions. Don't worry about other things too much, I will be responsible for dealing with them."

"Your Majesty understands."

Song Ying leaned forward and cupped her hands.

At this moment, the two well-worn kings of Wala, the three commanders of the capital, and civil servants such as Yang Rong, the Minister of War, who went out of the city to greet these people, happened to walk to the gate of the office and saw Wu, who was wearing the uniform of a high-ranking military attache of the Ming Dynasty. , Song Dynasty.

"Wu Hou!"

Nieliehu, Batuluba and the other three commanders shouted in unison.

They had dealt with the Marquis of Jiangyin before, so they naturally recognized Wu Gao.

"Two kings and three commanders, it's been a hard journey!"

Wu Gao raised his hand and greeted.

Soon, the two sides met and each bowed as a greeting ceremony.

At this time, Qu Neng, who had finished his business, also rushed to the door, and together with Wu Gao and Song Ying greeted the second king of Wala and the three capital commanders.

"Your Majesty has been waiting for you for a long time."

"Please, please, please!" Wu Gao bowed and made a gesture of invitation.

After a while.

Just before the civil and military officials entered the living room, Qu Neng grabbed Song Ying, walked to the side, and said urgently: "Brother Tiancai, have you read the document that the governor gave you?"

Song Ying knew the truth and asked: "The governor is asking for the list of numbers of the troops accompanying the Northern Expedition?"

"Yes!" Qu Neng nodded anxiously.

"Governor, I am in a dilemma!"

Song Ying quickly raised her hands and said: "It seems that Governor Wu, Marquis of Jiangyin, has another candidate."

"Tiancai, let me tell you something from the bottom of my heart. Marquis Wu Gao of Jiangyin is a nepotist and forms a clique for personal gain. Your Majesty has already sent people to keep an eye on him."

Qu Neng whispered: "It's not a good thing if you get too close to him. You have to make plans early."

"I just want to do my job impartially and don't want to involve too much."

Song Ying slightly cupped her hands.

"So good!"

Qu Neng smiled and said: "The list of troop numbers accompanying the Northern Expedition remains unchanged. You and I will jointly submit it to His Majesty."

"Will there be any changes during the court meeting?"

Song Ying said worriedly.

"My brother Tiancai, how long will it take for this to change?"

Qu Neng said anxiously: "When the court is discussing, as long as you and I are unanimous, Your Majesty will definitely play it accurately."

"What kind of trouble would Marquis Jiangyin stir up?"

Song Ying was worried that the scandal he had done during Ding You would be exposed by Jiangyin Marquis Wu Gao, so he hesitated.

"With the governor here, what can he do to you?"

Qu Neng was an old man. Seeing that Song Ying's face was not very good, he asked tentatively: "Is it possible that you have something that fell into the hands of Marquis Jiangyin?"

"The Governor was overly concerned. Song's family training is very strict, so there is no excuse for it."

Song Ying waved her hands quickly.

Qu Neng stroked his beard and said, "That's good."

He paused and then said: "I estimate that after His Majesty receives the two kings of Wala and the three commanders, he will most likely review the list of troops that will accompany them on the northern expedition. Do you have the list of troops that will accompany them on the northern expedition? On your body?"

"It is still sealed in the Provisional Office of the Governor's Office awaiting an edict."

Song Ying replied.

"Go and get it quickly, in case His Majesty inquires."

Qu Neng ordered.

"Yes."

Song Ying cupped her hands and said.

After half an hour.

In the Temporary Affairs Office of the Governor's Mansion.

Song Ying was pacing back and forth in circles with her hands behind her back, anxious and conflicted inside.

If he comes up with the list of Jiangyin Marquis Wu Gao, he will definitely offend Pingyang Boquneng.

On the contrary, if he presented Qu Neng's list, he would definitely anger Wu Gao.

If Wu Gao, the Marquis of Jiangyin, got angry and revealed all his previous "deeds" in front of the emperor, he would be completely finished by then.

If you want to avoid offending both the left and right parties, there is only one way, and that is to resign!
Song Ying thought of this, gritted her teeth, and decided to write a resignation letter and give it to His Majesty Emperor Qianxi of the Ming Dynasty.

Immediately afterwards, he bent down at his desk and started writing memorials.

"Song Ying, the guilty minister, is here to report to Your Majesty: I have been favored by the imperial court and given the post of commander of the guards, but I am unable to serve as a dog or horse. Since I was transferred to the Shaanxi and Pudu Governor's Mansion, I have found it difficult to be both a minister and a human being. I feel like I am here all day long. Abyss, like walking on thin ice——"

Writing this, Song Ying suddenly remembered that he was a passionate man, how could he be a deserter?

So, he immediately tore up what he had just written.

"A real man should act openly and aboveboard!"

Song Ying did not want to lose the face of her father, the Marquis of Xining, and decided to confess everything to His Majesty Emperor Qianxi of the Ming Dynasty.
