Chapter 654

After the Baigan Army was ordered to be transferred to Yunnan, although on the surface, the Baigan Army was under the command of the Duke of Guizhou, from the beginning to the end, Qin Liangyu could feel that the current emperor did not care much about the Duke of Guizhou. like.It was also because of this that Qin Liangyu was given the right to perform secret performances, and the orders given to Yunnan were also specially given to her by Qin Liangyu.

Of course, from another aspect, it is possible that the current Duke of Guizhou did not show any special talents, or that the previous Duke of Guizhou had a poor impression on the court. Therefore, although he had the title of Duke, he did not. Win the emperor's trust.

Now, on the other hand, the Qian Guogong is not clear about the meaning of the current emperor, even if he is suspicious like now, he can explain some problems from one side.

At this time, Wu Zhaoyuan, the governor of Yunnan, who was sitting on the main seat, saw that they seemed to be arguing, so he said: "Don't be angry, the emperor will come to Yunnan soon, if we don't unite , to give the emperor a bad impression, presumably you don't want to, right?"

Hearing this, Mu Tianbo and Qin Liangyu fell silent.Today's emperor quelled the rebellion of the thieves, shocked the grasslands, and wiped out the Jianlu. Others may think these things are hearsay, but they may not be true. As the highest executives in Yunnan, they naturally understand that it is true.

No matter who the emperor with such illustrious martial arts was, he would have respect and fear in his heart.

Seeing that they didn't speak any more, Wu Zhaoyuan opened his mouth again and said to Mu Tianbo: "The emperor has worked tirelessly to drive his own expedition to this remote border land with poor mountains and rivers. There is a statement in the decree to each place, and all places are required to provide military supplies. Food and grass. Others Not to mention the locality, the emperor went to Yunnan to quell the rebellion, and the matter of military supplies and food needs to be taken care of by the Duke!"

"What?" Upon hearing this, Mu Tianbo immediately said with an unhappy face, "Why? The emperor's decree is to ask the local governments, but he didn't say that he asked the nobles from all over the country to provide food and supplies. This matter should be your duty Right?"

Wu Zhaoyuan was not angry when he heard this, but replied flatly: "Nowadays, there are rebellions all over Yunnan, how can we collect taxes? The Duke has guarded the land of Yunnan for generations, and has always been guarding the land of Yunnan for the imperial court. Now that there are so many rebellions, the Duke’s Mansion has to bear certain responsibilities, right? The early suppression of the rebellion in Dian is what the Duke would like to see the most, and I believe the Emperor will be happy with some money and food.”

Hearing this, Mu Tianbo stood up from his seat, pointed at Wu Zhaoyuan and said sharply: "We usually fight for power with our country's prince, but now at this time, we want our country's prince to pay for it. How can such a good thing happen!"

After saying that, he threw up his hands and walked away angrily.

Qin Liangyu on the side looked at all this and didn't speak at all, let alone open his mouth to persuade him to stay.There have always been conflicts between the Duke's Mansion and the Yunnan Governor's Mansion representing the imperial court. In the past, coupled with the chieftains from all over Yunnan, it can be said that there are constant conflicts between the three forces.

But now the chieftain is turning the table, and the Governor's Mansion and the Duke's Mansion, which are originally from the same root, are still in the same boat despite their conflicts.But these noisy things are still common, and it's not surprising.

Qin Liangyu didn't speak, but Ma Xianglin behind her said a little worriedly: "Do you want to give Your Majesty a memorial to explain the situation here, so as not to cause big troubles when the army arrives without money and food preparations?"

Wu Zhaoyuan listened, glanced at the servants of the Duke's Mansion on both sides without any trace, nodded immediately and said: "That's okay, then I will give a memorial, and the old general Qin will also give a memorial to the emperor, explaining today's progress. This matter, lest if I write a letter on my own, some people will think that this official is slandering, making people think that the government has accumulated income for generations, but it does not take away the king's affairs, and it is an iron cock."

"Your Majesty Zhongcheng is justified. I must not let His Majesty lead the army to find out that the money and food are not prepared, and delay the big event." Qin Liangyu also glanced at the servants of the Duke's Mansion without any trace, and immediately responded to Wu Zhaoyuan.

Sure enough, upon hearing their conversation, a servant standing at the door immediately retreated in a hurry.

Wu Zhaoyuan smiled in his heart, but he didn't show it on the surface. He just said to Qin Liangyu: "Although the Duke left in a fit of anger, we still need to plan the defense of the city for the sake of the people of Kunming."

"At the command of Lord Zhongcheng!" Qin Liangyu stood up and said to Wu Zhaoyuan.

So, they discussed the military affairs of the city defense in the lobby of the Duke's Mansion.

…………

In this Duke's mansion, although Mu Tianbo has been an adult and has been in power for many years, the one who really speaks and decides is actually not him, but his grandmother Mrs. Song Tai.

Back when Mu Tianbo's father, Mu Qiyuan, when the court asked him to send troops to help the court suppress the An Bangyan Rebellion, he resisted three times and refused to serve the court.Afterwards, he even felt that he was the king of Yunnan, who often practiced lawlessness, condoned the domestic slaves to harm the people, and patrolled Yu Yu to arrest the illegal domestic slaves according to the law.This Mu Qiyuan actually mobilized troops and aimed artillery at the patrol office.

This kind of thing can be done, it can be seen that Mu Qiyuan does not take the court seriously, even if there is no rebellion, it is almost the same as rebellion.

Although at that time, the Ming court was already in a state of desperation.For example, the She'an Rebellion in the southwest, the Mongolian invasion of the north, the Jianlu in Liaodong, and the disasters in the Central Plains.

But Mu Qiyuan's biological mother knew that no matter what happened to the imperial court, their Mu family absolutely did not have the strength to contend with the imperial court.Such perverse actions by Mu Qiyuan will definitely bring about disasters.For the future of the Mu family, he cruelly poisoned Mu Qiyuan to death, and only then did Mu Tianbo inherit the title of Duke when he was ten years old.

Now, Mrs. Song Tai was shocked when she heard the servant's report, and immediately had someone call Mu Tianbo, but as soon as they met, she leaned on her crutches and knocked on the ground, shouting sharply: "What on earth are you going to do?"

Seeing that she was so angry, Mu Tianbo quickly knelt down and asked, "I don't know why Tianbo made grandma so angry?"

"What do you think?" Mrs. Song Tai shouted with an angry face, "What is the ancestral training passed down by the Mu family that Grandma Zu has always taught you?"

"My children and grandchildren must serve the country loyally. We must be diligent and careful in everything. We should treat colleagues with humility as the foundation. Special instructions, caution, and admonition." Mu Tianbo did not dare to disobey, and quickly and skillfully backtracked.

It has to be said that among the great achievements of the founding of the Ming Dynasty, there are many people who are self-satisfied, but Mu Ying is the only one who knows how to behave, which can be seen from the ancestral training left by him.Perhaps this is also the reason why Mu Ying was able to die well.

At this time, Mrs. Song Tai was dissatisfied when she heard that Mu Tianbo had finished reciting it, but continued to shout angrily: "Did you take it to heart?"

"..." Mu Tianbo was speechless, if he didn't memorize it carefully, how could he be so proficient in memorizing it.But since his grandmother asked, he still replied respectfully, "Of course my grandson will keep it in mind."

"That's good!" Mrs. Song Tai asked sharply when she heard this, "You tell me that all my descendants must serve the country faithfully and be diligent and careful in everything. What do you mean by that?"

Just ask so bluntly, everyone knows what Mrs. Song means.After hearing this, Mu Tianbo couldn't help distinguishing: "Grandma, the food and supplies of the imperial army led by the emperor will be borne by our Duke's mansion, how much will it cost! How could my grandson agree to such a thing? The ancestors and ancestors managed to save it!"

"Dong dong dong" Mrs. Song poked her crutch so hard that it would crack the ground when she heard it, and she said bitterly: "The emperor personally conquered our Yunnan, what kind of opportunity is this? Don't say Just bear the food and supplies of the imperial army led by the emperor, even if you take all the supplies of other armies from other places, you have to do it well, do you understand?"

"..." At this moment, Mu Tianbo was speechless. He really suspected that his grandmother was too old, so her brain was not enough, and she could even say such words.

So, after he was stunned for a moment, he had to remind Mrs. Song: "Grandma Zu, if this is really the case, the money in our Duke's mansion will be exhausted, maybe we can't afford so many food and supplies for the army! Could it be...could Grandma Grandma still drink the Northwest Wind?"

Hearing this, Mrs. Song raised her crutches, making a gesture to strike.

This time, Mu Tianbo was not afraid anymore, straightened his neck and said: "Grandma Grandma, grandson is saving something for future generations, it's not that I want to enjoy myself!"

Hearing this, Mrs. Song stopped beating, put down her crutch heavily, let out a "bang", then pointed at Mu Tianbo, and said in a hateful voice: "You are just a little stronger than your father, don't think that the old man I don’t know how you spend your days and nights. How can you not understand this matter? Where do you spend your thoughts? Do you still want to leave it for future generations? Is it for blessing or for disaster? "

Hearing her speak so seriously, Mu Tianbo lost his confidence like a ball, but he still didn't understand, so he asked: "Grandma, what do you mean by that?"

Seeing that he didn't persist so much anymore, and thinking that the governor of Yunnan might leave, it would be troublesome to issue the memorial, she no longer enlightened, but said directly: "The money and wealth of our Duke's mansion are expensive. After all, it is not the emperor of Ming Dynasty. Given, how much money do you have, do you think that outsiders will not be able to count? Now that the emperor came here in person during the war, but you didn’t take away any money, do you know how the big treason case came about a few years ago?”

"Isn't it Tonglu?" Mu Tianbo replied puzzled after hearing this.This matter was clearly stated in the court's mansion newspaper.

When Mrs. Song heard this, she immediately asked, "Then do you have any collusion with the chieftain who is now rebelling?"

　I went to the second-level hospital for an examination today, and it actually said that I have no stones. Such good news makes me a little unbelievable...
