Chapter 193
"The lower official met with the grandfather of the magistrate." Zhao Cheng bowed to greet him after coming in.
"Zhao Cheng, you are a good guy. It's a hateful and hateful person. You will be revenge, right?" Huang Wenbing pointed at him and smiled bitterly.
"But this time it's nothing to do with me... I'm also confused." Zhao Cheng was also a little embarrassed.
"Tell me well, if you hadn't been instigated, why did Mr. Zhang chase after Qin Ming, who was seriously injured after returning from a battlefield?"
Huang Wenbing said anxiously, "If you don't let him go, it's like asking me. Who gave him the authorization to not obey your orders, right? Why did he participate in the Battle of Lingyang Mountain when he didn't obey your orders? He was defeated, right?"
Zhao Cheng hesitated for a while and pointed to the seat next to him and said, "Or why don't you let the lower official sit down and drink water first?"
"Stop coming, I still want to have tea. I will quickly explain to me, what is your mentality?" Huang Wenbing said angrily.
Zhao Cheng had to continue standing, "Okay, Mr. Ji, did put the decision-making layer on the fire, but wasn't what she was talking about?"
Huang Wenbing said, "You don't want to do this, it doesn't matter what the truth is. Success, king, defeat, bandit, you did win, you are indeed right. But now there is a connection between He Zhi. How big do you want to play? You just want to embarrass me, right? You are not convinced that I was accused of releasing part of your command at that time?"
"Of course, the Xiaguan is not convinced. The so-called suspicion of people does not need to be employed. Changing orders every day will not benefit the current war situation." Zhao Cheng hesitated, "But now it is really not my doing, it is not my will. Originally, Xiaguan had reached a tacit understanding with Lord He Zhi, deliberately avoiding mentioning his existence and role in the Battle of Lingyang Mountain."
"really?"
Huang Wenbing was slightly calmer. As long as he didn't mention the Bangcui named He, he would naturally not have the trouble of me, Old Huang, to tacitly allow him to interfere in military affairs.
This would be fine. He would not offend the He family and make things more complicated. Anyway, Dong Ping was killed, so he can now blame all the defeat on Qin Ming, and he was stubborn and self-righteous in violating the military order.
Qin Ming was not Huang Wenbing's person at first, and there was no friendship, so there was no need to let go. Moreover, the political resistance to giving up Qin Ming is the least, because it is obvious that Cai You had long been dissatisfied with him and wanted to deal with him, Qin Pili.
"Um……"
Thinking of this, Huang Wenbing twisted his beard again and said, "If so, you are a little enlightened."
Zhao Cheng looked up at the ceiling.
"What's your attitude?" Huang Wenbing scolded, "And you don't have to tilt your tail every time you are right. Who will show your face? What kind of morality is that your emotions are so high and low, how can you entrust with important responsibilities?"
"The right people cannot take the blame. Can gamblers who lose money every day entrust with important tasks?" Zhao Cheng said.
"you……"
Huang Wenbing hesitated for a while and was a little discouraged, "Xiao Zhao, aren't you just obsessed with your military command?"
"It's like a bad thing," said Zhao Cheng.
Huang Wenbing thought he was simply a robber logic, but he was helpless that this man had such virtues. He could always put out some of the logic that seemed to be a robber in a righteous and open manner.
"Okay, you are the one who loves to do things and dares to do things. You want to serve the country. Of course, this is not a bad thing." Huang Wenbing said, "The problem is that you have to understand me. Will you feel at ease if you have the right to be unsupervised? So for a while you offended many people and there were a lot of rumors about you. I was understandable that I didn't explicitly order your rights to be lifted, right?"
"So you let He Zhi, a gambler who doesn't understand, loses money every day, supervises and controls a capable minister who works correctly every day?" Zhao Cheng blinked.
"Rareless! I'm justifying you. I insist that this is the way of being an official and it is in line with national policies. I did nothing wrong." Huang Wenbing slapped the table and said.
"I am presenting facts to you. I insist that I am seeking truth from facts and I have done nothing wrong. The national policy must also conform to the facts and be down-to-earth. Any national policy that deviates from the facts will inevitably make mistakes and will inevitably be denied. The official thinks you know this."
Zhao Cheng is a tooth for tooth.
Huang Wenbing knew that he couldn't continue to say anything. This man was actually a robber, not to mention that he once again beat the other people's faces. After winning the Battle of Lingyang Mountain, he was really qualified to lift his tail to the sky.
Before, he only had public opinion. But now, the situation is becoming increasingly unfavorable, based on his correctness and great contributions again, he has undoubtedly gained absolute initiative in the political will of the upper class and the will of the middle class scholars, coupled with Zhang Ji's promotion.
Basically, he is really confident that he dares to speak like this now. He has reached the point where everyone hopes for it and cannot be denied.
Regardless of the facts, Huang Wenbing is sure that even if there is a new coach, it cannot be used. The morale of the entire Chizhou battlefield is low and no one can be effectively controlled. Only this Zhao Shusheng is exceptional. Now, as long as he raises his arms, the Xiangjun will listen to him.
At this point, Huang Wenbing looked at him with a cold mouth for a long time, sighed and waved his hand, "Sit down, Lord Zhao, my beloved Mr. Zhao, thank you for your hard work after you come back from the battle." He said again, "Why are you still standing there? Come and serve good tea for Lord Zhao quickly."
The confidant entourage went out with a strange look.
"As an official of the state, it is actually worth it to be a good official. You don't need to be so polite." Zhao Cheng was a little polite.
Huang Wenbing sprayed a mouthful of tea and looked at him in horror, "Are you serious about being modest... Have you actually learned to be modest?"
“It will be OK or yes.”
Zhao Cheng carried the tea he sent and drank two sips of it. It was indeed extraordinary. Zhao Cheng himself was reluctant to buy this kind of tea because his monthly salary was only enough to drink half a month of this kind of tea.
The salary of officials in the Song Dynasty was almost the same as the highest, but that was the past. Since Wang Anshi took office, he suddenly canceled many subsidies, including the income from vocational land, and the current year has been almost half cut. So you can imagine that in the vigorous policy at that time, there were no killing people, so how many people would rebel against him and scold him?
But these do not need to be over-interpreted, they are different policies brought about by different ideas and personalities. To put it bluntly, whether it is low-paying and saving money or high-paying, it is a false proposition. If you should be greedy, you will give him half of the country, because he wants to take the other half to enjoy it.
If a person is not greedy, he will be like that even if he tossses him. No matter how low the salary of an official is, it will not make people live a very difficult life. I miss my family and have great business, and the exception of asking a bunch of servants to cheer for him like Gao Yanei in Tokyo. Raising a dog's legs is just like raising an army, which is very expensive.
Well, Zhao Cheng basically settled after drinking his bowl of tea. This is the default rule.
So Huang Wenbing twisted his beard and said, "Xiao Zhao, what you said about Zhang Ji? It's not your business to build momentum. I believe you for now. If you don't believe it, there is no way. But just tell me what to do?"
Zhao Cheng clasped his fists and said, "Don't worry, my husband, I will go to her privately and make the most beneficial strategy for the moment."
That's all, Huang Wenbing said little by little, "Okay. In addition, the emotions that have been incited need to be explained. In this way, Qin Ming will be left to you to deal with. But since you are enlightened and have reached a tacit understanding with He Zhi, then the defeat of Lingyang Mountain will end with Qin Ming. Do you understand what I mean?"
Of course Zhao Cheng understood!
It means that there is no need to be tried, and Qin Ming was beheaded and sacrificed to the flag in public, with the reason that "he violated Zhao Cheng's order in the Battle of Lingyang Mountain." Then, let's stop asking He Zhi's role in Lingyang Mountain, nor do we investigate who gave Qin Ming the courage to resist the order.
This seems natural. For the vast majority of people who don’t know the truth, it’s almost the same as the Qin Ming sacrificial flag.
"Do you understand?" Huang Wenbing narrowed his eyes again.
"The official understands." Zhao Cheng refused to comment.
Huang Wenbing didn't think much about it. He really believed that Zhao Cheng didn't want to mess with Assistant Prime Minister He Zhizhong. Since he reached a tacit understanding with He Zhi, Zhao Cheng had the only way to go. In addition, it is well known that Zhao Cheng and Qin Ming have a long history of not dealing with him. Such a vengeful person would like this opportunity.
Then, as I thought before, Zhao Cheng is from the Cai family. Cai You had long wanted to deal with Qin Ming. At present, it is best for Qin Ming to come out to be responsible for this incident. Zhao Cheng had no choice but to do this for Cai You. Otherwise, if he offended Cai You, he would have to fight with He Zhizhong. Where did Zhao Cheng get the confidence?
Finally, if you do this, you might get angry with Zhang Ji?
But it is estimated that Zhao Cheng is only strong because Cai Wenji is also a famous woman. Now everyone knows that Cai Wenji and Zhao Cheng are circling each other with enemies. Zhang Ji is definitely not good in the middle. Cai Wenji and Zhang Ji are unlikely to be concubines, so they must face a choice. Then Zhao Cheng's choice to offend Zhang Ji at this time is actually equivalent to further acquit the Cai family on the issue of marriage.
