After Shi Biao left the Wuyang Marquis Mansion, he went to the Chinese Army Governor's Mansion with Zhu Jianshen's instructions to pay a visit to Ning Guogong Chen Ying.
Chen Ying, who was in the middle hall, was discussing the military training with Zhu Yong, the admiral of the third battalion.
After hearing the report from the soldiers, I was slightly surprised.
Counting the days, Shi Biao came back quite quickly now.
Although Chen Ying knew that Shi Heng had committed a crime, Chen Ying did not slight Shi Biao because of Shi Heng's fault.
After hearing the report from the soldiers, he suspended the discussion with Zhu Yong and personally came to greet Shi Biao outside the Chinese Army Governor's Mansion.
Zhu Yong worked with Shi Biao in North Korea for two years and went with him.
Chen Ying knew Shi Biao very well.
It is very rare to lead a team alone in your thirties.
Chen Ying has also learned a lot about it.
Before Shi Biao entered Liaodong, he could only be regarded as a pioneering general who was brave in combat and not afraid of death. However, he stayed in Liaodong, North Korea and other military areas for a full ten years. From Shi Heng's influence on him to his own After thinking, he has his own combat style and has deep insights into large-scale legion operations.
As someone who has experienced it, Chen Ying knows that if Shi Biao is killed or imprisoned because of Shi Heng's incident, the loss to the Ming Dynasty's martial arts community will still be great.
His second uncle and his third uncle were both his uncles, and they had little relationship with Shi Biao.
Moreover, the emperor's attitude also showed that he wanted Shi Biao to get out.
Shi Biao, who was waiting outside the Chinese Army Governor's Mansion, saw Chen Ying and Zhu Yong walking out.
He hurriedly bowed and saluted: "The last general Shi Biao met with Ning Guogong and congratulated Ning Guogong on his promotion...",
Chen Ying hurried forward and personally helped Shi Biao up.
"Marquis Liaoping, please come in quickly."
"Yes, Mr. Ning Guo." Shi Biao responded, then looked at Zhu Yong beside him, and Zhu Yong also looked at Shi Biao at this time.
The two of them bowed their heads to signal each other. In front of Chen Ying, they certainly couldn't chat unscrupulously.
Zhu Yong looks better than Shi Biao, but he is more than ten years older than Shi Biao.
The two of them worked very well together when they were in North Korea...
Zhu Yong said goodbye, and Shi Biao followed Chen Ying into the Chinese Army Governor's Mansion.
In the lobby.
After the two sat down, Shi Biao directly stated his intention.
"Ning Guo Gong, Your Majesty asked the general to pack lightly and set off for Annan immediately. Here, I want to get a piece of paper from the Duke."
After hearing what Shi Biao said, Chen Ying nodded slightly, but did not directly talk about the withering order.
"Marquis Liaoping, I am here. I am more than twenty years older than you, and I have been with your majesty for a long time. As an elder, I would like to give you three words, please accept it..."
"It is a blessing for the juniors that Mr. Ning Guo can give them some advice." Shi Biao said quickly.
Chen Ying chuckled lightly: "As a general, you should have the spirit of the morning glory. You must not lose your vigorous and upward spirit because of one thing, and you must not belittle yourself or feel sorry for yourself."
What Chen Ying said was to tell Shi Biao that you are still young and have a long way to go in the future. Don't let your unlucky old uncle make you become timid in the future, which will make it difficult for you to become a great person.
After hearing this, Shi Biao hurriedly responded: "Be taught."
"When we get to Annan, it is extremely important to stabilize the morale of the army. In a short period of time, there will be no military exploits, but we cannot fail. People like us who lick blood from the edge of a knife value brotherhood more than those scholars. If Wu Yanghou is severely punished, even if you are His nephew, if he does not use strict methods, it will be difficult to control people's hearts. If he can be used, he will be used, and if he cannot be used, he will be transferred away."
"The end will tell."
Chen Ying looked at the submissive Shi Biao and mentioned the last important point.
"He was at fault for what happened to Shi Heng, but the root cause lies with me. If I hadn't moved to become the Duke of the country, Shi Heng would not have been like this. If you are unwilling, you can only bear grudges against me and not think too much. Other than that, Everything is possible.”
Chen Ying said that the root cause was himself, but anyone who understands would know that it was the emperor who got away with it.
Although the emperor knew that Shi Heng was reckless, he never imagined that Shi Heng was really that stupid and that he had no intention of doing so...
Of course, even if there is part of Zhu Jianshen's reasons, ministers, especially military commanders, cannot think like this.
And Shi Biao suddenly understood the key point of Chen Ying's words. After hearing it, the indifference on his face disappeared without a trace in an instant. He quickly stood up and said: "Ning Guogong, in my heart, I will Knowing what the Duke means, the general will never dare to think wildly. In the eyes of the general, the holy grace comes from heaven, and the thunder, rain, and dew are all the grace of the king. If he is dissatisfied with this, the affairs of the general and the country have become a child's play, and he should be killed..."
After Chen Ying heard Shi Biao's words, his heart was slightly shaken. He looked at Shi Biao for a long time, and then he understood something in his heart.
"troubled you……"
At this moment Shi Biao remained silent...
"How did your Majesty arrange it? Did Shi Heng die in battle, or did he die of illness before the battle..."
Two ways to die have two arrangements.
To die in battle can be said to be underestimating the enemy and rashly advancing and losing once. The court can also use this as a reason to remove Shi Heng's title. However, before he died of illness, only Shi Heng was killed, so it would not have any impact on his title. .
"He neither died on the battlefield nor died of illness before the battle. This crime was reported to the three armies of Annan and killed at Zhennanguan. How the affairs of the capital will be arranged is unknown to the general."
After hearing this, Chen Ying nodded. Notifying the three armies in Annan can serve as a warning. When the news reaches the capital, people can make arrangements. There are still five people who died of illness or died on the battlefield. The military governor's office and the emperor's control.
What is important is the asymmetry of information between civil servants and generals. It is almost not difficult to operate. As long as it is settled, even if there is more news, the court will not admit it.
Shi Heng's death served as a warning to Wu Xun in the rule of law, because everyone inside knew what was going on. Even if the news spread, as long as the court did not acknowledge it, it would be a rumor and could be blamed.
Of course, this is also why in the dynasties before the Ming Dynasty, there were two kinds of historical records for a certain major event, one was the official history and the other was the unofficial history.
Unofficial history is accompanied by rumors and folk records.
This is why the history books we read now always contradict each other.
Official history is officially recognized, but unofficial history is not officially recognized. People at the time may not know what is true and what is false.
"Let someone else do it, otherwise, you will never feel at ease in your life..."
"It's because I don't feel at ease that I have to do it myself." Shi Biao said simply.
After hearing this, Chen Ying also stood up, walked to Shi Biao, and patted the young man on the shoulder.
"If my son can be 50% as brave as you, even if he chops off my head, I will still be smiling. When the time comes, let's have a good talk, prepare a pot of good wine, and show your filial piety." After saying this, , Chen Ying sighed: "When are you ready to leave?"
"Leave the day after tomorrow."
"When you come back, come to my house to drink..."
"yes."
After Shi Biao received the military order from the Central Military Governor's Mansion, he returned directly to his home. At home, he received the imperial edict, seal, and sword from Cheng'en, the Superintendent of Ceremonies.
The title of General Zhengnan had already been taken by Shi Heng, and it was not appropriate to give it to Shi Biao. After Zhu Jian thought about it deeply, he gave Shi Biao the title of General Rebellion, and there was also a seal of this party in the warehouse. …
Late at night, Shi Biao and his wife Qi sat opposite each other.
Shi Biao drank a lot of wine that night.
And Qi, a lady of the family who had never tasted wine, also drank a few drinks with her husband.
After returning from Shi Biao, Mrs. Qi didn't ask a word, only kept her company quietly.
Another day later, Shi Biao was summoned by the emperor again. This time Shi Biao stayed in the Qianqing Palace for another hour. The emperor and his ministers chatted a lot, but not a word was mentioned about Shi Heng.
The night after leaving the palace, Shi Biao left Beijing again.
He set off first, followed closely by the eunuch Cheng'en, the eunuch who wrote the letter, and a supervisory censor from the Metropolitan Procuratorate. Both of them received the decree to watch Shi Heng die, and the censor from the Metropolitan Procuratorate returned to Beijing to resume his duties. , Chengen stayed by Shi Biao's side and stayed in Annan......
Shi Biao led more than thirty soldiers and headed south non-stop...
At this time, three groups of people were rushing to Annan.
The first wave was Zhu Ji and his party, which had just arrived in Guangxi. The second wave was Shi Biao, and the third wave was the supervisory censor and Cheng En.
They all came for Shi Heng.
At this time, Han Yong, who was in Annan, when he was sure that Shi Heng's departure would not affect the situation, he began to arrange for Shi Heng to leave Jiaozhou City and return to Guangxi, waiting for His Majesty's decree and the arrival of Shi Biao...
Shi Heng had already realized his fate and did not reject Han Yong's arrangement at all.
You should live your life as a human being, and you should not shrink back when you die. This is Shi Heng's creed. Now he neither regrets nor deceives himself. He has earned it by living a little longer.
He only took away a dozen clan girls from Jiaozhou City, and nothing else.
Of course, Han Yong agreed to all Shi Heng's requests.
In order not to attract attention, Han Yong personally put Shi Heng on the carriage leaving Jiaozhou City under the cover of night.
This time, none of his more than fifty soldiers followed him, and they were all replaced by Han Yong's guards...
On the fourth day after Shi Biao left Beijing, he arrived in Henan. At this time, Xu Youzhen had just left Henan and arrived in Caoxian...
