I Thought I Was Straight - Chapter 121
Although it has been through so many centuries, this is the first time that Yang Ge has led troops to fight. Even with the memory of the original owner, he was still in a hurry.
The original owner grew up in the northwest, and the enemies he faced were also nomadic tribes in the northwest. The style of fighting was very different from that in the southwest. Yan Ge knew his strengths, so he always paid attention to adopting the opinions of veterans in terms of strategy. They have really fought all their lives, and their experience must be richer than their own.
The terrain in the southern mountainous area is complicated, and Liu Chonglin is cowardly without fighting. Since the army came here to set up camp, there has been no large-scale battle. It wasn’t until the two gentlemen met unexpectedly on a river beach two days ago that the two sides fought once in a panic. This battle was won by Yan Ge’s side. When the soldiers came back with the prisoners, Yang Ge quickly wrote a battle report to the court.
I don’t know when the generals started to write a report to the court no matter what they did when they were fighting outside. Write when you win, write when you lose, write before you prepare to fight, and write how you plan to fight.
When Yan Ge’s battle report was urgently sent to Li Xiu, Li Xiu was so excited that he couldn’t sleep, he knew that Yan Ge would not let him down. With this battle report in hand, let’s see what those guys in the court who can only talk but don’t do have anything to say.
This happy mood only lasted for a while, and soon Li Xiu fell into the distress of how to reply to the letter. Generally speaking, the emperor only needs to praise Yang Ge in the reply, then promise to reward the soldiers, and finally give some opinions. But this was just an official receipt from the imperial court. After Li Xiu realized what she wanted, she always wanted to write a letter to Yan Ge alone.
He tossed and turned anxiously because of this reply letter, writing too official and unable to express his heart, writing too explicit would be disrespectful. When he appeared in the early court staring at a pair of dark circles under his eyes, the courtiers looked at the emperor’s weak body and thought he had fooled around with the court ladies all night, and they all felt unhappy.
Not to mention that the war in the Southwest is now tense, it is really inappropriate to say that the ministers are discussing about choosing a concubine for the emperor, and the emperor is still not happy.
Li Xiu didn’t know that he had become a pervert with peculiar taste in everyone’s mind, so he happily took out Yan Ge’s battle report and circulated it to all the officials. The ministers were also very happy to see this battle report. Although many people were worried about Yan Ge’s self-respect, it was a good thing that the court won the battle anyway.
Seeing that everyone was very happy, Li Xiu was ready to discuss with everyone how to reward Yan Ge.
Yan Ge is already a first-rank official, and there is no possibility of further advancement in the official position. If he wants to be rewarded, he can only work **** the title. When he said that he was going to make Yang Ge a Marquis, he immediately met with fierce opposition from all the courtiers, all of them were spitting and blushing, as if Li Xiu was not talking about rewarding Yang Ge’s title, but was planning to invade them.
Li Xiu was dumbfounded, and he didn’t understand. As for the objection?
But this changed his decision. He planned to award the title when Yan Ge returned from victory. At that time, these people would find no reason to object, right? Then after going to court, he began to worry about how to reply to Yang Ge’s letter.
After waiting for several days, Yan Ge finally got the receipt from the court. What surprised him was not only the official receipt, but also a letter specially written to him by Li Xiu.
This is not new, sometimes the emperor would specifically tell the general about something that he didn’t want others to know, so everyone didn’t find it strange.
Yang Ge returned to the room with the letter, and at the desk he opened the emperor’s private letter sealed with wax.
The first words that caught my eyes were, “Ai Qing Ziyuan, I miss you so much after not seeing you for a long time. I saw lotus blooming in the Imperial Garden today, and remembered that you said you liked this flower the most…”
The whole article is full of lyricism that I don’t know the so-called, it looks like something written by the emperor after eating and having nothing to do. Yan Ge was confused. He once thought that in the era of underdeveloped communication in ancient times, those who could write letters for such trivial daily routines were those hypocritical literati and poets. How could Li Xiu have this problem?
But the emperor’s letter cannot be ignored, even if he wrote such a ghost.
So Yan Ge began to worry about how to reply to Li Xiu.
Since he wrote this kind of shit, he definitely couldn’t answer anything too official. After thinking about it, he decided to write it like this, and also write a running account.
He spread out the letter paper, picked up a pen and began to write, “Your Majesty Wan An, your Majesty’s trustees are very happy, and they are inexplicably moved and dare not forget His Majesty’s favor. Speaking of lotus, there are few ponds in the southwestern mountainous area, but the azaleas on the mountain are very beautiful… “
Li Xiu received Yan Ge’s letter, and when he saw Yan Ge, he said he was delighted and moved inexplicably, and he felt as if he had eaten honey. What did he mean by that? Have you understood my intention?
Li Xiu was shy and entangled at the same time, felt uncomfortable all night, and started writing letters to Yang Ge the next day.
“Ziyuan, I saw you galloping on the battlefield in my dream yesterday, you are so majestic and heroic that you cannot be looked at…”
When Yang Ge received the letter, he felt even more bewildered. He was fighting in the southwestern mountainous area, where there are forests and ravines everywhere, where did the battlefield come from? What’s more, I am the commander-in-chief of the army, and I want to command in the big tent, so how can I gallop on the battlefield? Has this little emperor suffered from secondary illness?
Li Xiu didn’t know what Yan Ge was thinking, otherwise he wouldn’t even be able to cry, not to mention laughing.
As the frontlines continued to receive good news, the ministers of the DPRK and China thought that victory was a matter of course, so they no longer worried about Liu Chonglin, but worried about whether Yan Ge would support himself and become the second Liu Chonglin. The ministers were worried, and they all agreed to send a supervising army to the southwest theater as suggested by the emperor in the early court.
Li Xiu asked them why they sent a supervisory army, and the ministers pretended to let His Majesty know more clearly what happened on the battlefield.
Li Xiu felt that it was very inappropriate, wouldn’t Yan Ge say anything by himself? Immediately, someone jumped out and said that the army was under the control of Yan Ge alone, and it was inevitable that Yan Ge would conceal something and report good news instead of bad news.
Among these words, Li Xiu only remembered one sentence, that is, report good news but not bad news. Yan Ge’s reply to the battle report was indeed full of good things. Although Li Xiu had never fought a war, he would never believe that fighting a war would be such a simple matter. He was always worried about Yan Ge, and wanted to know how Yang Ge was doing, whether he had eaten on time or something. But even if he asked in the letter, Yan Ge would only say that Chen was fine.
Li Xiuxin said that it would be good to send a supervising army, at least it would give her some peace of mind.
So he asked who was suitable to send, and everyone talked a lot, and a candidate was quickly finalized.
This person’s name is Li Zhi, just like his name, he is a big straight man, and he is about to turn into cancer. In addition, his official position is the censor, and he is a speech officer, that is, the most unbearable group of people in the court, who are responsible for spraying people. Hate the sky, hate the emperor, and spray anyone who doesn’t like it.
At the beginning of the founding of the Tang Dynasty, Emperor Taizong specially set up a national policy in order to spread the way of speech, so that the speech officials would not be punished for their speech. In other words, the speaker can speak vigorously, and he will not be punished for anything he says. This is terrible. Although these officials are not high-ranking officials, they are the most troublesome ones in the whole court. Because any of them can spray, even if you spray nonsense, you can only justify it, but you can’t take revenge or anything.
When the news that Li Zhi was coming to supervise the army spread to the southwest, the military division dropped his glass on the spot. Angrily, he thumped the table, “Don’t be a son of man, don’t be a son of man! Before the general battle is over, you will send someone to point fingers, what kind of emperor is this?”
Yan Ge sat at the head and remained silent. Li Zhi’s arrival was a certainty. Unless he sent someone to intercept him halfway, he could only recognize him by pinching his nose.
Yan Ge comforted: “He came as soon as he came, the worst thing is to ignore him. This is in the army, and it’s our base, how can we be bullied by him?”
All the soldiers thought about it too, if he really hated him, at worst they would find an opportunity to let some of Liu Chonglin’s people come in and kill him. At that time, he will report to the imperial court, saying that Master Li Zhi was so brave that he insisted on going into battle, but he was beheaded in a different place under the horse.
Everyone discussed it, so Li Zhiping came to the southwest theater safely.
His official position is not high, but his status is aloof, so Yan Ge did not go to meet him, but sent a military division to meet him.
Li Zhi was in his fifties, and he was thin and small, but his face looked as if someone owed him a lot of money. When he got off the carriage, he kept a straight face, and when the military adviser talked to him, he would ignore it. Looking around, they didn’t see Yan Ge, they stared at each other and said, “Why don’t you see the governor?”
The military adviser said that the governor was busy with the war and could not greet him in person, which was actually a polite word. Anyone with a little bit of self-knowledge knows that Li Zhi’s official position is not worthy of being greeted by Yan Ge in person, and it is already very embarrassing for Yan Ge to arrange his confidantes to greet him. But Li Zhi said angrily: “The governor neglected me so much? Are you dissatisfied with me?”
As soon as this remark came out, the military adviser’s nose was almost crooked, and he thought to himself who is this? Are you full of dissatisfaction with you and don’t you have any clues in your heart?
Immediately, the faces of all the people present at Yan Ge changed, and the military adviser stopped smiling, and said coldly: “Master, the supervisor has worked hard all the way, let’s go to rest first. After packing up, I will take the supervisor to meet the governor. grown ups.”
Li Zhi was even more angry when he heard such unkind words. He said in his heart that if Yan Ge dared to do this to himself, the supervisor, he must have the heart of disobedience. After he came to his room, he neither washed nor rested. The first thing he did was to write a memorial, in which he said how Yan Ge and his subordinates disrespected him, how they would not release the court and His Majesty. In his eyes, he even criticized Yan Ge as an unfaithful and unrighteous person.
Poor Yan Ge has never seen him before, how could he know that he became such a person in his writing.
The author has something to say: to make up for yesterday, there is another chapter.
