Perfect Shape [Quick Transmigration]
Chapter 42
Cheng Che felt that although Liang Jing answered with a smile, there was no smile in his words, so he changed the subject tactfully.
"Brother, don't we go home?" Cheng Che wanted to ask when he heard him send things to the inn just now. Naturally, the home they share now refers not to the imperial palace, but to the Liang mansion. Cheng Che is not prepared to meet him. The meaning of the palace is that he has no feelings for the people in the palace. More importantly, if he returns to the palace, their identities will definitely be exposed, but as long as Liang Jing meets the Liang family, no one will find out.
After all, although the people in the capital are very afraid of Liang Jing, no one will stare at the Liang mansion all day long. Liang Jing himself is not there, and the Liang mansion only has a group of old and weak women and children. From the eyes of the people in the capital, The group of people in the Liang Mansion couldn't figure out any tricks.
"Just in case, don't startle them now, just pick them up when you leave in two days." Liang Jing said, meaning to stay for a few days.
However, it seems that Liang Jing didn't seem to have any purpose. He led Cheng Che to wander around the streets and alleys. Now Liang Jing's mood is about the same as when Cheng Che was about to leave Beijing. He will probably never see such a prosperous capital again. arrive.
Liang Jing was able to control the chaos in the world, but he didn't have the confidence to control when the world will be peaceful.
"Have you heard that the son of the Prince of Nan has requested to go to Jiangnan?"
Cheng Che never forgot the cousin who finally ascended to the throne, so whenever he heard someone talking about Prince Nan, he fell in love with him.The prince of the Southern Prince begged to go to the south of the Yangtze River... Someone was discussing it in the street. It seemed that everyone knew the news. I don't know if Liang Jing had heard of it.
"Nan Wang's son is going to the south of the Yangtze River? I've heard about it." Seeing Cheng Che's question, Liang Jing replied casually, "Isn't the Nan Wang's fief in the Jiangnan area? Now that the peasant uprising has been quelled, as the prince, please order to inspect his fief. There's nothing wrong with that."
Hongguo's title fiefdom system only enjoys taxation. For example, the fiefdom of Prince Nan is a city in the south of the Yangtze River. Every year, the tax of this city will not be handed over to the royal family, but to Prince Nan. The fiefdom is a town near the border. Every year, the town's tax revenue will be handed over to him... But Liang Jing has basically never received much money, and it has been used as military expenses for the town's frontier army, and all the food collected has gone into the army. storehouse.
Therefore, Liang Jing didn't care much about the harvest of the town's Border Marquis fief, it was the logistics quartermaster of the Town's Frontier Army who took care of it.
But Nan Wang is different.
The tax revenue from the Nan Wangye's fiefdom is all paid into the Nan Wang Mansion. This year, there are farmers in the south who rebelled. Naturally, the tax revenue is not much better. As soon as the uprising was put down, the Nan Wang Shizi rushed to check it. On the surface, there seemed to be no flaws.
Cheng Che didn't know how to remind Liang Jing to pay attention to this person, so he could only pretend to be casual and said, "Oh, that's right, I heard that he was going to the south of the Yangtze River, so I thought he was fleeing to the south like the shopkeeper of Yuxiufang It's over."
Hearing what Cheng Che said, Liang Jing paused and touched his chin, "It's not impossible. If it's true, it would be interesting."
It is really a coincidence that I chose to go to Jiangnan at this time.
There is no evidence for the rumors that Liang Jing let people release that the city was broken. Not many people believed it, not to mention the rich and powerful in the capital. The eyeliner of Jingcheng Tong's news was intercepted, and they were not allowed to know the exact news.
So if it is true as Cheng Che guessed, where did the news about Prince Nan come from? If Prince Nan knows, does Prince Nan know?
It's no secret that Nan Wangye doesn't love his son and loves a concubine's youngest son in the capital. If Nan Wangye knew that Di Rong was coming to the capital, he would only let his son take refuge instead of his beloved concubine Ji and his youngest son. ?Even he himself stayed safely in the capital?
From this point of view, this Prince Nan is not simple.
Early in the morning, the ordinary carriage of the Liang family was driven out from the back door of the Liang residence, and the only three remaining Liang family members besides Liang Jing were sitting on it.Liang Jing's mother Feng Shi, Liang Jing's sister-in-law Liu Shi, and Liang Jing's nephew Liang Yu.
Men in the Liang family are rarely at home, so they don't marry many wives and concubines. Even many Liang family members die alone, and Liang Jing also has a younger uncle.
In their words, those people who are precarious and will never return at any time, it is better not to delay other girls' homes.
Under such circumstances, most of the girls who are willing to marry into the Liang family are very reasonable. For example, Liang Jing's mother would never interfere with the Liang family's education. Scolding, no matter how much Feng's love for children, he will not pamper and pamper them regardless of right or wrong.
The same is true of Liang Jing's sister-in-law. Liang Jing is on the go, and he never needs to worry about the affairs of the Liang family. Those family properties, even a lot of dowry of Liang Jing's sister-in-law were used to subsidize the family.
This time too, Liang Jing arranged for them to leave quietly, and they also packed up and left without saying a word, and they definitely wouldn't have to ask questions to make things difficult and drag Liang Jing down.
But when the group arrived at the city gate, they were stopped by the guards of the city gate.
It seems that the rumors that the Zhenbei Pass was broken had no effect on the capital, and it was still the same when entering the city, but the inspections when leaving the city were much stricter, for fear that a large number of people would listen to the rumors and flee collectively, which would be very detrimental to the stability of the capital.
Liang Jing frowned slightly, it will be their turn soon, the identities of the Liang family must not be revealed, because their identities are too sensitive, especially when the Zhenbei Pass is broken, their group can pass by. I can't afford to check.
"Master, use this." What Cheng Che handed to Liang Jing was his identity token, which represented his status as the Seventh Prince, "Just say that you sent someone to buy things for me at the border, and bring a few waiters. people pass by."
"I am wronged that Master's family is pretending to be my school boy, maid and nun for the time being."
"It's okay." Unable to think of any other way, Liang Jing was ready to do what Cheng Che said. As for whether he was wronged or not, he just said it verbally, so there was no way he would have any opinions.
A group of people successfully got out of the city gate and went straight to the place where the Zhenbei Army was stationed.
The Zhenbei Army was stationed on the shady side of a hillside near the capital.
The sunny side of this small hillside is used for outings for the rich and powerful in the capital, but now it is almost winter, and no one will come here at all, let alone the dark side of the hillside where few people go even in spring and summer, thousands of people Stationed here for a few days, no one found it at all.
"Master, where are we going next?"
"Go to the south of the Yangtze River. Go and meet the son of the Southern Prince."
Liang Jing originally only needed to watch Di Rong's troops go according to his plan, but there was General Dingyuan over there, following Di Rong's troops to the capital, so he didn't need to worry about it for the time being.The general situation in the capital is set, and there will be no changes without accidents.In the original plot, Liang Jing needed a pretense of royal blood so he waited in the capital for Di Rong's troops to arrive, but now that Liang Jing already has Cheng Che, there is no need to wait in the capital any longer.
In the end, Liang Jing sent a group of people to take the Liang family back to the border town, and the rest were still stationed in the capital to join General Dingyuan's troops.He only took a dozen people including Cheng Che to Jiangnan.
In fact, Liang Jing meant to let Cheng Che follow the Liang family back to the border town, and go to the south of the Yangtze River to find out the truth, but how could Cheng Che agree to him being a canary and being protected by Liang Jing all the time!It must be followed.
If Saibei is Liang Jing's world, then Jiangnan is a completely unfamiliar territory to him.
Cheng Che knew from the plot that Jiangnan had been controlled by Cheng Chong, the heir of the Southern King long ago, and many local officials in the south had colluded with Cheng Chong.
If it were not for Liang Jing's actions, it is estimated that Cheng Chong would turn against him in a few years.But at that time Liang Jing will become extremely passive.
Even now, Cheng Chong has no worries about food and clothing in Jiangnan, he can advance and attack, retreat and defend, Liang Jing has nothing to do with him.However, the resources in the north are poor, but they still have to count on the materials produced in the south of the Yangtze River.
It is not without reason that Cheng Chong won the game between Cheng Chong and Liang Jing in the original plot.
Although Jiangnan has suffered from natural and man-made disasters for three consecutive years, there is a foundation there after all. As long as it is rectified a little, it will become orderly.Unlike the north, which is barren over time.
What the people in the south are most short of now is food. There is indeed no food in the official treasury in the Jiangnan area, but there is a lot of food in the private treasury. The private treasury of the Southern Prince alone has enough food to equip the entire town's frontier army for a winter. military pay.
When Cheng Chong is about to seize the throne, opening a private storehouse to release grain will definitely win over the people's hearts. Even if the private storehouse is not enough, there are still grain merchants. But Cheng Chong is the best at it.
As for the army, the troops transferred to the south of the Yangtze River this time have not yet withdrawn. When Di Rong breaks through the capital, these Jiangnan troops will become leaderless without the order of the capital, and most of them will be controlled by Cheng Chong.
Except for the frontier areas, the permanent troops in each city in other areas range from 20 to [-]. If you count militia patrols and other miscellaneous mobile troops, there are also many, like the [-] permanent troops of the town border army. Mobile army logistics soldiers can make up [-].Of course, the mobile army on the frontier includes the permanent troops in the four cities near the frontier, about [-].
That is to say, if Liang Jing and Prince Nan's son really meet in the future, Liang Jing will have [-] elite troops, [-] supplementary force, and more than [-] miscellaneous troops with low combat effectiveness.
However, frontier areas are often recruited. Liang Jing can no longer recruit many recruits from the frontier. The 10,000+ army is fighting a little less, and some of them will stay in the frontier for defense. In the future, they will consume a lot when driving Di Rong.
And Nanwang Shizi can only gather [-] elites even though he is desperate, but he has [-] local permanent troops, and he can gather more miscellaneous troops, hundreds of thousands are no problem.
So in the long run, Liang Jing is not as good as Nan Wang Shizi in the army.
"Brother, don't we go home?" Cheng Che wanted to ask when he heard him send things to the inn just now. Naturally, the home they share now refers not to the imperial palace, but to the Liang mansion. Cheng Che is not prepared to meet him. The meaning of the palace is that he has no feelings for the people in the palace.
