Chapter 172

It was in such a tense atmosphere that Yang Chendong entered the capital from Yang Jiazhuang. The day of returning home on the third day came. He came to Hu's house to visit his relatives with his new wife Hu Yan.

The inspection out of the city is very strict, but it is much more relaxed when entering the city. This is tantamount to slapping yourself, proving how ridiculous the so-called catch spies is.

Since Yang Chendong became a marquis, the battles he went out have become much bigger. This time, the same is true. Only the number of servants and guards has reached 30, and nearly 100 strong men and maids carrying boxes and holding boxes.

Just from this point of view, Yang Chendong has exceeded the rules. According to the law of the Ming Dynasty, the Marquis can only take eight attendants when he goes out, but he escorts only 30 people, that is, he has brought more than 100 heroes and maidens, but the team is too strong.

If we put it in peacetime, we are afraid that those officials will impeach again. But now that the capital is not guaranteed, who is still in the mood to tangle with this? Of course, even in peacetime, what Yang Chendong decided will not change. He came to create rules, not abide by them.

Besides, in order to marry Hu Yan, Yang Chendong gave at least two million things to the Hu family, which once shocked the capital. But in the final analysis, those are Yang Chendong's filial piety, but this time Hu Yan's filial piety to her parents has a different meaning.

For taking out so many good things to her mother's house, Hu Yan will certainly feel more face and happy. But after all, she is already the Yang family. Out of consideration for her husband, she still said no. In this regard, Yang Chendong reached out and scraped her nose and said with a smile: "silly girl, you are all my people now. What is it to give your family something? Besides, your family LIULANG has nothing else, and there is still a lot of money. Don't worry, LIULANG won't become poor if these things are sent out."

Under a small joke, Hu Yan's heart was inexplicable and her nose was sour. Although money may not prove anything, but such consideration of their own face and forthright atmosphere, can not they also prove their importance? Thinking about this, he sighed that he married the right person and chose the right Lang.

The mighty troops entered the capital. If it is normal, such a battle will certainly attract a lot of onlookers, even a lot of discussion and gossip, and will harvest a lot of envious eyes. But at this time, everyone was thinking about how to take refuge from Beijing, and how many people were there to take care of such business and watch such excitement.

Sitting in a large and luxurious carriage, Yang Chendong looked out of the window from time to time, collected all the information into his mind, and had a more intuitive understanding of the situation of the capital.

Hu Yan snuggled up in Yang Chendong's arms. It was rare that there was no one else in the carriage. She got up a little unscrupulous and completely ignored her reserved appearance. In that way, she leaned her head against Yang Chendong's chest and felt the strong heartbeat and happiness on her face.

Until the carriage stopped before Hu's house, Hu Yan was still flushed and happy when she got off the carriage. When I saw my mother waiting in the hall on admission, I ran over with excitement on my face.

......

Facing the hall.

The atmosphere today is particularly tense.

In the past, in order to show his majesty, the emperor would listen to the ministers below first, and then he would say a few words when he had an idea, demonstrating his supremacy of power. But today, without waiting for the ministers to speak, even when the ministers just got up after kneeling down and reading long live, long live, long live, he asked anxiously, "Aiqing, do you have any ideas about the leader and the strategy of retreating from the enemy, tell me?"

In this way, the whole dynasty is quiet.

If a great Confucian who knows the four books and five classics can say a lot of people's names casually. But when it comes to retreating the enemy and leading the war, how can it be so easy?

We haven't had a big foreign war for a long time. Even though some wars are only minor wars, or internal chaos. For such a battle, the enemy will be terrified as long as a large number of troops are pressed on the border, and there is no need for any technical content.

But this time, we were faced with the vara elite cavalry who had repeatedly outperformed ourselves. The two hundreds of thousands of troops were the result of great defeat, which led to the shortage of troops. So, how to resist the enemy?

Not to mention, recommending a candidate as an official is completely different from being an official.

Recommending officials, even if the other party is unqualified, look back and casually find a reason to get rid of the relationship on the grounds that they don't know very well. It's best to manage up and down to make some silver, and the matter will be turned into a small one. However, recommending generals is still against the strong warla army. If you don't do well, you will lose your head. What's more, the recommender will also get the same crime. Who would easily make such a recommendation?

Don't want to get into trouble is on the one hand, more importantly, there is no suitable person in everyone's heart. In their view, the warla army, which is invincible even in the British clan's personal expedition, is already an invincible division and invincible division.

All the ministers were mute and kept silent. This worried the emperor and annoyed Zhu Qiyu. "Why? Don't you even have a suitable candidate? You call yourself the pillar of the country. According to you, you can do everything in the world. But is it so difficult to recommend a leader now? Ah! In that case, are you cheating me?"

In a rage, Zhu Qiyu was going to give the ministers a hat of bullying the monarch. In this way, even if several ministers were killed for this reason, others could not say anything.

Feeling the anger of the emperor, the ministers were frightened and looked at each other at the same time, and then quickly transition the candidates who can lead the army in their minds. It's just that it's hard to have the right person.

"How?" seeing that the ministers were still silent, Zhu Qiyu was angry and decided to kill several people to sacrifice the flag. Some people are like this. If they don't force them to their share, I'm afraid they don't know their strength.

Just as Zhu Qizhen scanned his eyes and thought about who to kill the chicken for the monkey, someone among the ministers suddenly said, "emperor, I have a candidate to recommend."

"Oh? Who? Who recommended? Come forward." Zhu Qiyu, who was about to get angry, suddenly saw hope. Naturally, he was very happy. His voice became very eager when he looked for it.

"Yes." Xu Youzhen, the new Shaoqing of Taichang temple, who got the imperial order, strode forward with a confident face.

The ministers were also curious about who came out at this time, but when they saw Xu Youzhen in charge of the sacrifice, they showed an expression of incomprehension one by one.

He used to be a censor. Although he had impeached some people and had a little green name, he was not a popular official and was difficult to get into the eyes of everyone. If it had not been for this time that the two emperors ruled together, it would not have been possible for a sixth grade official to be promoted to the position of Shaoqing of Taichang temple, which is the fourth grade.

Yesterday, this person had a limelight. At that time, he impressed his colleagues. I didn't think he would speak again today. Did he really have a suitable leader in his heart? Is he really a man with a strategic mind?

Under the gaze of all the ministers, in the emperor's eager eyes, Xu Youzhen, who was holding the wat board, strode forward with confidence on his face and knelt down and said, "I recommend a man. He once fought with the Warsaw cavalry, and he didn't lose. He retreated all over. With him, the so-called little alien is not there. If he is not there, he should be swept like a cobweb in the room."

Xu Youzhen's flattery surprised the ministers in the court.

Who ever fought against the vara army without losing? Even Shi Heng, who sealed the governor and Wu Qingbo, also returned from defeat. Is there really a more powerful general than this person?

If it is true, why have we not heard of it?

The ministers were puzzled, but the Emperor Zhu Qiyu didn't think much. Now he was eager to find a way to solve things. As long as he could retreat from the enemy, he didn't care about where he came from and what position he held. "Well, well, Ming is really talented, but I don't know his name, where he is now, and what kind of official position?"

Zhu Qiyu asked eagerly, and Xu Youzhen answered calmly, "back to the emperor, this person is now in the capital. It is Yang Chendong, the loyal and courageous Hou."

"Xu Shaoqing, speak carefully." among the officials, someone soon made a statement of criticism. This person was the most important official in the court and the Minister of rites, Hu Chen.

Yang Chendong married his granddaughter and the two families had a very close relationship. Now someone recommends his grandson-in-law to lead the army to fight. Of course, he will be unhappy. It's a war. It will kill people, not business. It's just a big deal with money.

"Yes, Xu Shaoqing is too eager. It's a war of leadership. It's a national event. It's not a place to solve personal grievances." Hu Changning also stood in the court class. This time, in order to solve the crisis, Zhu Qiyu specially ordered all five grade officials above Beijing to come to the DPRK. As the caretaker of the royal guards, he is naturally qualified to stand here.

He is already Yang Chendong's father-in-law. Naturally, he can't ignore his son-in-law. In a word, there is a problem with Xu Youzhen's motivation.

In fact, most of the people in the court remember that Xu Youzhen impeached Yang Chendong to go to flower street when he was an imperial historian. Although Yang Chendong was unimpeded afterwards, he was promoted to the first level.

With this lesson, no wonder Hu Changning had such an idea and even dared to point it out in court.

Xu Youzhen, who was accused by Hu Zhen and Hu Changning's father and son at the same time, did not see any panic on her face. On the contrary, she kept smiling and said: "Yes, I did impeach the loyal and courageous Marquis when I was the censor, but that's just my duty, and there is no personal resentment. Now, I recommend the loyal and courageous Marquis, which is my duty, and also to repay the emperor's kindness. And I can also be responsible for what I say. If the loyal and courageous Marquis can't keep the enemy away from the capital, I am willing to take full responsibility Responsibility. "
