Chinese dining table

Chapter 277
When I got home, it was already afternoon.

There was no news, coupled with thunder and stones flying in the imperial city, Cui Shi and Liu Yi were on the verge of death.

Hearing that Yu Xiurong was pregnant with two children, both Liu Yi and Cui Shi breathed a sigh of relief.

Get ready to celebrate with a sumptuous feast at home.

As for the thunder and lightning in the imperial city, as long as the flying stones didn't hurt the Patriarch, his wife and Naha, that's fine.

On the third day of Yunchu's normal work day, Cheng Yaojin came back and flatly rejected Jinchang Fang's offer to hold a long table banquet for the soldiers.

After returning, except seeing Li Zhi once, he went to the Ministry of War to return the token, and then hid at home and thanked the guests behind closed doors.

As soon as the door of the Cheng family was closed, the emperor's decree came down.

The content of the decree is very simple. Wang Wendu was expelled from office because of his coercion.Cheng Yaojin was reduced to death and dismissed from office because he did not stay and did not pursue the enemy hard.

That is to say, Cheng Yaojin was defeated this time, his official position was completely deprived, and he had nothing but a title.

The fact that Wang Wendu was killed by Pei Xingjian was not mentioned in the decree at all, and in fact there was no need to mention it, because Wang Wendu was killed by the barbarians.

From this punishment, it can be seen that Wang Wendu did act in a coercive manner, otherwise, he would not be responsible for the whole family's life.

After seeing Liu Rengui's twists and turns, Yunchu calmed down and took good care of Mianmian.

This is the most urgent official business of Wannian County and Chang'an County at present, and other matters have to be pushed back.

It was just that there was no news about Xu Jingye, which made Yunchu very worried. After asking Yinggong twice, Yinggong asked him to pretend that this person was dead.

Yunchu always felt that Yinggong should know something, but even if he didn't say anything and acted too indifferently, he couldn't be bothered to put his face on someone's cold ass.

Zhang Jianzhi wrote a letter.

The letter said that he had done a good job in Tuyuhun. He not only raided Chishuiyuan, but also looted a lot of good things in Tuyuhun. Now, he wanted to see if there was a chance to overthrow the Tuyuhun royal court and replace it.

Yunchu thinks this person is too much, but Ruanrou doesn't think so. He thinks that he can support Zhang Jianzhi to continue to harm Tuyuhun, and it is best to control some good places where Tuyuhun is easy to station troops, so as to prepare for the future.

Fei Jiu's letter also came along.

What he said in his letter was very serious. After discovering the true nature of the decline of the Tuyuhun royal court, Zhang Jianzhi became self-reliant.

This kind of self-reliance does not mean that Zhang Jianzhi has the idea of ​​becoming a king on his own, but that he wants to break away from Yun's control and join the court.

Fei Jiu also asked in the letter if Zhang Jianzhi should be killed. If the Patriarch needs it, he will arrange it.

After reading the two letters, Yun Chu believed what Fei Jiu said, and as for Zhang Jianzhi, he could only listen to what he said.

After reading Fei Jiu's letter, Rourou discussed with Yunchu for a long time, and finally agreed that Zhang Jianzhi can be pushed out.

An ambitious person like him is not at all easy to control. Instead of killing him and making it easier for the Tuyuhun people, it is better to hand him over to the court.

Therefore, Yunchu sent Zhang Jianzhi's letter to Duke Ying without any hesitation.

"So, you want cattle and sheep, you want wealthy Tuyuhun nobles, but you don't want Zhang Jianzhi and the more than 5000 ordinary Tuyuhun people under his command?"

When Yinggong asked Yunchu this sentence, there was a veteran with a clear face sitting opposite him. There were not many generals who could sit with Yinggong, and it was obvious that this was Lu Guogong Cheng Yaojin.

They ignored him, and Yinggong didn't introduce him, so Yunchu had no choice but to pretend that this person didn't exist, and said cautiously: "I was just asking for money, but now that I have both money and people, whatever Zhang Jianzhi wants to do is up to him." Let's go."

Li Ji laughed and said, "Is it time to go up to the house and take out the ladder?"

Yun Chu chuckled and said: "Military affairs, of course there are people who manipulate military affairs to worry about them. The younger generation just wants to make some money, and first make Chang'an look good before talking about other things."

"Sometimes it's not a good thing to be too timid, like this one, who just suffered from lack of courage."

Seeing Li Ji pointing his finger at Lao Cheng beside him when he said that Yun Chu was as timid as a mouse, Yun Chu had no choice but to bow his head to be taught.

Cheng Yaojin slapped the table heavily with his palm, then yelled "Hey", stood up, and turned his face away.

Li Ji snorted coldly and said: "Turn around and look at the young people in front of you clearly. After we all die of old age, you will have to rely on them to guard the family property you left behind. Teach more now, and there will be less at home in the future." Lose some."

Cheng Yaojin turned his head to look at Yun Chu and said, "Only by him?"

Li Ji said with a smile: "Anyway, among the young people, I am most optimistic about him. The important thing is that people don't care about him, and he is the one who knows how to be grateful."

Only then did Cheng Yaojin look squarely at Yunchu, and slowly said: "In the future, if you lead troops abroad, you must bring your own people with you. This is all I can teach you."

Just as Yun Chu was about to speak, he saw Li Ji waving his hand and said, "Go ahead, remember what Old Cheng said just now, don't think it's just a gossip, he bought it with blood and tears.

As for this Zhang Jianzhi, the old man is useful. "

After bidding farewell to these two old fellows, Yunchu felt relieved.

If Sun Shenxian also came back from Liuzhou at this time, he would feel more secure.

Liu Rengui's gunpowder testing ground was moved to Qujiang, and people in Qujiangfang could hear the roar of gunpowder explosion almost every day.

When Yunchu went to Qujiangfang to check, he also heard it. It was not bad, at least there were firecrackers from later generations.

He believed that as long as Liu Rengui continued to study like this, he would definitely come up with the classic formula.

This thing is nothing more than the ratio of saltpeter, sulfur, and charcoal, and the purification of materials. As long as the Tang Dynasty is willing to spend unlimited money in it, it is not too difficult to make classic gunpowder.

Everyone seems to be busy, even the various ministries in Wannian County are also very busy, no one wants to stay in the county government to gossip, because Yunchu has divided the government affairs on everyone's head, and it can't be done Bonuses will be deducted.

The officials in Wannian County are not afraid to withhold their salaries, because the salary is only a small amount, and it is not issued by Wannian County.

The bonus is different, it is completely decided by the county magistrate alone, if you don't want to give it, you won't give it, there is nothing you can do.

Therefore, Yunchu and Wenrou are the only two idlers left in the county government.

Just when the two of them had nothing to do and were playing chess, a young green-robed official walked in from the outside.

The handyman who was in charge of leading him quietly retreated after delivering the man, and the chessboard battle between Yunchu and Wenrou was reaching a critical point.

The young official didn't bother, just stood aside and watched the battle quietly, until Yunchu ate Wenrou's horse, and Wenrou killed Yunchu's cannon, then Yunchu picked up the teapot and poured a cup of tea for the young official: "Brother, rest for a while, after I kill him, we will have a good talk."

The young official smiled without saying a word, took a sip of the tea, and then continued to watch the battle without saying a word, appearing very reserved.

Yunchu and Rourou played chess, and they had always been used to open and close. In the blink of an eye, there were not many chess pieces left on the chessboard.

Rourou pushed the chessboard and said: "It's like this every time, can't you deploy troops properly?

The heads of those who insisted on killing as soon as they came up were rolling, and finally turned into a draw. "

Yun Chu said: "I hope that when the Tang Dynasty uses troops in the future, it will just push across directly like this, without having to think about any tactics, battle formations, and even less tricks.

Any conspiracies and tricks are a manifestation of insufficient strength. The soldiers and horses of the Tang Dynasty in the future should meet gods and kill gods, and Buddhas and Buddhas. "

The green-robed young official nodded repeatedly and said: "As long as the gunpowder technique is successfully developed, a certain family thinks that the words of Yun County Prime Minister will be realized."

Yun Chu dropped the chess pieces in his hand and cupped his hands, "I haven't asked brother Gao's name yet."

The young official returned the salute with cupped fists: "Little brother Yang Ying, father Yang Huaisu."

Yun Chu said to Rou Rou: "The textile workshop will transfer a palm guard recently, and I never thought that it would be the master of Yang Shilang's family."

Rou Rou looked at this young man named Yang Ying and said: "Zhang Gu is just an official from the ninth rank, Brother Yang doesn't look like the person who wants to take up this position."

Yang Ying said with a smile: "To tell you the truth, the younger brother used to work in the Dianqian Division, the official position is not high, but it is also a position from the eighth rank.

Ever since my father made friends with Yunxian Cheng, my father asked my younger brother to resign and come to the textile workshop to start as a small official.

If there is anything wrong with my younger brother, I would like to ask the two elder brothers to teach me a lot, my younger brother will be very grateful. "

Yunchu looked at Yang Ying and sighed: "I want to say that your father is very clear, do you think I praise your father too much?"

Yang Ying shook his head and said: "I see that Wanli is my father's bandit name, and my colleagues in the court and China generally call my father a human owl!"

Yun Chu knew that the owl was also called an owl, and judging from the fact that Yang Huaisu resolved the conflict between them with just a few words, this person was similar to the human cat Li Yifu in dealing with the world.

The textile workshop is obviously going to become the star department of Datang. Once all the orders from the Ministry of War are completed this fall, this department will become a good place that everyone can't wait for.

It's easy not to say the credit, and you don't have to go to the battlefield to fight for your life, let alone go to a difficult place thousands of miles away from your home.

It seems that this Yang Huaisu loves his son very much.

Since he was able to give up such a good position as the head of the palace and would rather be demoted to come to the textile workshop, Yunchu naturally had no need to stop him.

To be honest, in Datang, it was actually easier for officials like Yang Ying to make a career.

This is a fact that has to be admitted. When those poor students successfully passed the Jinshi examination and were still worrying about their basic necessities, they were already thinking about their future.

When the poor students still value the official rank they have worked so hard for more than their fate, they would rather give up a big rank than come to the textile workshop to be a small palm guard with a very ugly name.

Yunchu knew very well that people coming to the textile workshop are definitely not here to destroy or make money, but to do things.

Because, the two things of destroying and making money are completely sorry for his sacrifice.
