At night, in the General Military Mansion in Seoul.
The fierce-looking Shi Biao sat alone in the lobby, with endless sadness hidden in his eyes.
In his hand is the imperial decree just received today.
He read it again and again.
After receiving the imperial edict, Shi Biao fell into a state of sluggishness.
I haven't thought about food or food all day long, and I feel depressed.
The spring breeze is incomprehensible and blows the young man's heart.
Two years ago, he captured Seoul, pacified North Korea, and became the Marquis of Liaoping in the Ming Dynasty.
But in just two years, is this dream of making great achievements about to wake up?
Although the imperial edict only required Shi Biao to arrange the defense of northern North Korea, the governor Zhao Fu became the general military officer of North Korea. The handover was completed as soon as possible and he immediately returned to the capital.
Apart from that, nothing was said, but Shi Biao could see something from the words "immediately" and "certainly".
This imperial edict seemed to urge him to return to Beijing, but in fact it was his uncle Shi Heng's urging talisman, and he finally reached this point.
Although Shi Biao had always been afraid that Shi Heng would implicate him, he had taken care of him for so many years and was bound by blood. He would be deceiving himself if he said he didn't have a deep relationship and didn't worry about Shi Heng's life and death.
For so many years, I have never written a letter to Shi Heng. Half of the reason is to protect myself, and the other half is because of my duty as a minister and a general.
The two Shi family members, one in the south and the other in the north, both had heavy military forces and were in close contact with each other in private, which was a taboo in itself.
Shi Biao was very smart and knew that in order to reassure His Majesty the Emperor, all he could do was to hand over military power as quickly as possible and rush back to the capital as soon as possible.
He couldn't save his uncle.
He can only save himself now.
Even if you can't protect everyone, you must also protect your own family.
In fact, Shi Biao felt extremely painful in his heart. On the one hand, he felt sad for his uncle, and on the other hand, he felt sad for his own future, his wealth and his life.
In the past, when Shi Biao came into contact with His Majesty the Emperor, he felt that he had met a wise monarch and would definitely have a lot to do.
As a young person, who can live without a few idols?
Shi Biao's idol is Chang Yuchun.
Leading an army of one hundred thousand, he can roam the world without anyone being able to defeat him. He is also known as the One Hundred Thousand.
When he arrived in Liaodong, he witnessed the vastness of the earth, the majesty of thousands of horses galloping, and the fusion of iron and blood, which also made Shi Biao fall in love with this kind of life of fighting and fighting.
He wants to be Chang Yuchun.
The brave general who ascended first in the Ming Dynasty.
But now Shi Biao feels that his future is over. If his old uncle is really caught for trying to make a big deal in Annan, it is doubtful whether he can save his life. Even if it does not cause such serious consequences, His Majesty the Emperor was merciful because of his merits. After that, he would never have the chance to lead the army alone, let alone move towards the goal.
After so many years of accumulation, Shi Biao has transformed from a courageous and brutal young man into a young general who has rules for running an army, tactics for fighting, and ideas for doing things. It can be said that after training, he can fully shoulder the responsibility of a young man. The banner of a generation even became a famous general in the Chenghua period and a celebrity in history.
He really put in the effort...
But all this was ruined by his uncle.
He should hate Shi Heng, but he couldn't hate his uncle. He could only sigh to himself. Time is fate, and there is no control over it...
Just when Shi Heng was feeling sad alone, a soldier walked in.
"General, Governor Wang is here."
Shi Heng raised his head and glanced at the soldiers, then stood up and respectfully put the imperial edict on the shelf.
"Let him in."
"Forget it, I'll greet you personally..."
After Shi Biao finished speaking, he stood up and walked out.
Shi Biao was a professional in emergency avoidance, and in order for him to reach the peak of his military career, he did a lot of self-destructive things when he had a large number of troops in North Korea, and he always treated Wang Yue, Zhao Fu and others. Never had a deep relationship with each other.
But even though he was a professional in emergency evacuation, Shi Biao still couldn't avoid his own uncle's backstabbing...
Now that we have left North Korea and handed over military power, we should be more polite to Wang Yue and no longer need to worry so much.
In fact, Wang Yue was a capable and skillful man, and Shi Biao had long wanted to have a good relationship with him. However, their status and the geographical environment of North Korea meant that they were not the place to make friends with the top civil servants or the top military generals. .
Wang Yue outside the General Military Mansion was dressed in white. Because he was already a high-ranking official, in order to make himself look more majestic, he also gave himself a beard.
Behind him was a group of more than sixty soldiers, all of whom were good soldiers in the army.
These people always protect Wang Yue's safety.
Many policies now come from Wang Yue's hands, and it is Wang Yue who has the most contact with the central government and the emperor.
His life safety is even directly linked to the stability of North Korea.
Therefore, his security is also the highest in North Korea except for the three princes.
Every time he travels within the city, he is escorted by more than 60 people, and when he travels far outside the city, he is escorted by more than 300 soldiers. In addition, pickets in various prefectures and counties along the way also conduct inspections to prevent assassination by opposition groups.
After Wang Yue arrived in North Korea, although his hands were stained with a lot of blood and his mentality was strong, it could not change the fact that he was a powerless scholar.
Even though this scholar was somewhat psychopathic and ruthless, he even acted very bloodthirsty when he first entered North Korea...
Wang Yue has a habit, which can be regarded as a special hobby. Whenever he is beheaded and executed, he will always be there to watch the execution.
Whenever Wang Yue saw the heads rolling on the floor, he was very excited, but he would always say with compassion: "Life is short, I'll send you off first, don't miss me, don't disturb me, don't thank me..."
Because he often said this, the subordinates who followed him also jokingly called Wang Yue in private, "Sanwu layman..."
And this name spread further and further. Shi Biao, Zhao Fu, and even Zhu Jianshen who was far away in the capital knew about it. Of course, when he first learned about it, Zhu Jianshen wondered for a long time whether Wang Yue also had kung fu in his hands. , can give people salvation...
Shi Biao walked out of the government office, and Wang Yue saw Shi Biao coming out to greet him in person, with a smile on his face. Before Shi Biao could say anything, he spoke first: "It's really a jobless thing. I thought, I want to see you." The number of times that Marquis Liaoping has gone out is not good either, but this is the first time that Marquis Liaoping has gone out to greet him in person."
After listening to Wang Yue's words, Shi Biao also smiled.
"I've been too slow to treat Sanwu layman these years."
After hearing his nickname which was not an elegant name, Wang Yue laughed out loud and seemed very open-minded.
"please."
"Marquis Liaoping, please first..."
Then, after exchanging words, the two people walked into the government office at the same time.
In the lobby, after the two of them sat down, they saw a tall and burly soldier bringing in two bowls of tea.
"Marquis Liaoping, you will be returning to Beijing in a few days. I think your majesty has another important responsibility. You will surely have a great journey in the future..."
After listening to Wang Yue's words, Shi Biao smiled bitterly: "Pengcheng Wanli is a little overconfident, but Governor Wang was promoted to three levels in one year, which is unprecedented..."
Wang Yue waved his hand, picked up the tea bowl, took a sip, then looked at Shi Biao and said: "Liao Pinghou, please take care of yourself when you enter the capital this time. I also hope that you and I will have the opportunity to join forces again in the future. , Marquis Liaoping can no longer refuse people thousands of miles away like before."
"I hope so, Governor Wang. The future of Korea will be left to you."
"Don't worry, Marquis Liaoping, the results of your military campaign in Korea will not be wasted in my hands. Marquis Liaoping, please take care..."
Shi Biao noticed something through the imperial edict.
And Wang Yue also noticed something through the content of the imperial edict.
Under normal circumstances, when Shi Biao left North Korea, he should have returned to Guangning, where he received the order to return to Beijing to report on his duties. But now he received it directly in North Korea, which proves that the court has important matters and wants him to return quickly. Jing, bypassing these traditions...
The only major thing related to Shi Biao was Shi Heng who was far away in Annan.
Either Annan suffered a big defeat, or Shi Heng committed some unforgivable sin. No matter what it was, it was not a good thing for Shi Biao, a rising star. BIquGe.biz
After hearing Wang Yue's words, Shi Biao felt like a mirror in his heart...
