Chapter 1142 1143 [Not afraid of the storm]

Shen Danmo tasted the heroic spirit and confidence in these words, and couldn't help but smile: "Aren't you afraid that others will say you are a traitor?"

Pei Yue said calmly: "If I were a rebellious minister, I'm afraid there wouldn't be many loyal ministers in the court."

Shen Danmo said, "That's because no one in the world understands you."

Pei Yue looked at her with interest.

Of course he knows that in terms of people who understand him well in this world, Shen Danmo must be among the best. Even if it is not as close as his and Ye Qi's mutual understanding, it is far beyond the reach of ordinary people. The reason for this is probably from the time when Hongyan sent a letter From the beginning, Shen Danmo had all his information on her desk, and she knew all the details of what happened later.

This is the terrifying thing about Taishitai Pavilion. No wonder Emperor Kaiping wanted to split the power of this yamen before his death.

Shen Danmo said with emotion: "Actually, the world has a deep misunderstanding of you. You are naturally a loyal minister, but the object of your loyalty is not the emperor nor the Liu family, but the dynasty named Liang. "

Pei Yue was slightly startled.

Shen Danmo continued: "I actually don't understand why the abused concubine in Dingguo Mansion had such a compassionate heart. Since you entered the court, you have indeed been loyal to the emperor on the surface. That's because The late emperor represented the interests of the people to a large extent, so your original intention and actions were combined into one. Before going to Northern Xinjiang, you repeatedly persuaded the late emperor not to take risks, but in the end you did not do so, so you did not prevent Chen Xizhi from leaving. , even if you know that her only purpose in living is revenge."

Pei Yue had a heavy look on his face and said, "Not being able to ask for anything and being helpless are common things in the world."

Shen Danmo stared into his eyes, with some pity and distress in his eyes, and said: "I think you were in pain at that time. After all, the late emperor was kind to you. From that time on, I confirmed that you Unlike others, loyalty to the emperor is just a cover. Your real ideal is to hope that Daliang will become stronger and stronger, so that the people can live and work in peace and contentment. As for the reforms you later implemented in the court, it naturally confirmed my speculation. "

Pei Yue stood up and walked slowly to the window, looked at the swaying rain curtain outside, and said with a complicated expression: "You understand me."

Shen Danmo smiled sweetly, tilted his head slightly and said, "Why else could I make up my mind to explain my feelings to you?"

Pei Yue said with difficulty: "In this case, I don't want you to leave Kyoto and go to the south."

Shen Danmo also stood up and walked closer and said: "There is no need to elaborate on the importance of the five southern states to you. Although Mr. Xi is talented in the world, it is not a bad thing to have a few helpers. Furthermore, you and I have already spoken to each other, even though we are thousands of miles apart. So what's the harm? The agreement I made with you cannot be changed by life or death."

Pei Yue thought for a long time, then opened his arms towards Shen Danmo.

Shen Danmo lowered his head slightly, did not resist, and slowly snuggled into his arms.

Pei Yue said in her ear: "The emperor and the queen mother may not be willing to let me leave Kyoto, so I can only leave this matter to you. I have a booklet and several methods of making firearms. You can help me take it to the southern border." To sir."

Shen Danmo leaned over his shoulder and said softly: "Well, don't worry."

Pei Yue said again: "Although you are surrounded by many masters to guard you, and Qian Bing is with you all the way, the current situation is so unpredictable that I can't rest assured after all. I have transferred another hundred masters to take charge of the perimeter security around you. It's still the Shen family's protection. If necessary, you can use this to notify the garrison in various places, so bandits and thieves will definitely not dare to approach."

Shen Danmo took something from his hand and said with some surprise: "Isn't this inappropriate?"

Pei Yue said warmly: "It's just my private seal. It cannot be used for official purposes. However, when the general of the Southern Army sees this, he will naturally understand your position in my heart."

Shen Danmo felt a sweet feeling in his heart, wrapped his hands around his back, and said softly: "Okay. I will leave tomorrow. You have so many things to do, so there is no need to go out of your way to see me off."

Pei Yue remained silent and hugged her tighter.

…

The next day, the Zhangzhang Hall was built, and all the important ministers of the dynasty gathered together.

During this period, all the officials in the court were thinking about was Pei Yue's previous proposal.

During the Kaiping Dynasty, the camp control system in Hucheng was established permanently, and the camp control system in Chengjing was also established many times. At that time, no one thought there was anything wrong with this. Because the Kaiping Emperor always controlled the power, and Wang Pingzhang supported him in the army, others naturally Can't make waves.

But Liu Xian is different. His prestige still needs time to develop. Even with the unremitting support of the six auxiliary ministers, he still cannot reach the level of prestige in the world in a short time.

The ministers did not dare to underestimate Pei Yue's military judgment. Since he said that Wu and Zhou would join forces to send troops, this matter needed to be treated with caution.

However, once the two forces are reinstated, Pei Yue will inevitably be one of them. This is the source of everyone's confusion.

Liu Xian looked around at the ministers, cleared his throat and said: "As for the proposal of Duke Wei a few days ago, after repeated consideration, I decided to send two imperial ministers in the name of inspection on behalf of the emperor to inspect the armament and defense of the border troops, and to supervise all parties. The battalion trains carefully to protect the environment and the people."

Many people couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief. If it was just a temporary imperial mission instead of a camp control, there would be a huge difference.

Although the former has the power to make emergency decisions, it cannot mobilize each battalion or even appoint and remove middle- and lower-level military officers like the camp control system.

Some people also looked worriedly at the young Duke, who was the leader of Wu Xun's class. His Majesty's words should have been a decision made after discussing with the Queen Mother. They completely deviated from Pei Yue's original intention. I wonder if he would object in the court.

As if he knew what these people were thinking, Liu Xian added: "In addition, if a war breaks out on the border, the imperial envoy can also coordinate the garrison of various battalions to temporarily set up a border defense line."

Pei Yue nodded slightly.

Of course he knows the ridiculous thoughts of some courtiers recently, but as Shen Danmo said, when he considers problems now, he doesn't care about personal gains and losses at all. As long as the basic fundamentals of Beiying and Nanjing remain unchanged, he can stand tall in the court. .As for whether it is an imperial envoy or a military commander, it does not matter. The important point is that this position has the power to temporarily control the border troops and who the emperor will send out of the capital.

Liu Xian glanced at Pei Yue without leaving any trace, and said slowly: "I have decided that Xiao Jin, the Marquis of Xiangcheng, from the right military aircraft, will inspect the defense of the Southern Army, and Pei Cheng, deputy commander of the Kyoto Garrison Division, will temporarily take over the position of commander."

Xiao Jin immediately left the class, bowed and said: "I obey your order."

It should be Pei Yue’s turn next, right?

This is what everyone is thinking.

Liu Xian took a breath and tried his best to calmly say: "Zuo Junji and Guangping Hou Guliang will inspect the defense of the Western Army on my behalf."

Gu Liang also came out and said: "I accept the decree."

Pei Yue gradually frowned.

There was a solemn silence in the hall.

The emperor's arrangement seems very reasonable. Although Gu Liang and Pei Yue are as close as one family, his resume lacks the link of the Western Army. In the past few decades, Gu Liang either fought in the Southern Army against the Zhou Dynasty, or guarded the capital camp. He has never served in the Western Army in Kyoto. Now that his third son Gu Mang has also transferred to the Western Camp of the Western Army with the Longbow Army, he has no confidants in the Western Army.

The same considerations apply to letting Xiao Jin go to the south. This person is exactly the opposite of Gu Liang. He has never been in any camp of the Southern Army before.

In this way, having two military figures who are both military aircraft and first-class princes patrol the border can not only effectively deal with the possible border wars that Pei Yue mentioned, but also avoid the worries that many people hide in their hearts. It can be said to be the best of both worlds.

Seeing no one objected, Liu Xian couldn't help but smile, feeling grateful to his mother.

He looked down and continued: "I have been in office for less than half a year, so the border soldiers must be a little unfamiliar with the imperial court. The two military planes are patrolling on my behalf this time, not only to supervise the military affairs of each battalion, but also to guard the border for me.

The soldiers expressed their condolences. I originally wanted Duke Wei to go, but considering that he has worked tirelessly for the court these years and made great achievements, and that the reform of various government affairs is also at a critical juncture, I can only give up."

Pei Yue thanked him loudly and said: "Your Majesty, I am very grateful for your kindness, but -"

He showed some hesitation, which was a rare sight in the court.

When Gu Liang went to inspect the Western Army, there was no problem in terms of safety, but he always felt that letting his father-in-law leave Beijing at this time was not a good choice, but he couldn't find a suitable reason to object in a hurry.

When Pei Yue hesitated and Liu Xian and other important ministers looked over, the middle-aged man with broad shoulders looked around everyone, and then broke the complicated silence with a plain but powerful sentence: "Your Majesty is wise, and I am a minister of my own honour."

I will try my best to live up to His Majesty’s expectations.”

It is Hou Guliang, Guangping.

His expression was calm and indifferent, and he had the majestic aura of a veteran on the battlefield.

Just like back then.
