Han’s Son is Not a Slave

Chapter 940: The Suffering of the Supervisor

After sitting in the flower hall for a long time, Liancheng suddenly called his entourage to summon Xu Guoliang. After Xu Guoliang came, he couldn't help but be a little surprised to see a large stack of neat manuscripts on the large desk in front of the old inspector.

Lianchengbi pointed to the manuscript and said to Xu Guoliang: "This is my whole life's hard work, about seven or eight million words, and there is no order postscript. The ancients said: The supreme virtue, the second is the merit, the second is the statement, it is called the three immortality. I can't achieve the meritorious service, and I may have hope if I make a statement. Even if there is no hope, you must think about publishing this manuscript for the world, so that the world will know that I even have the loyalty of the king and the great Ming on the city walls." These words Lian Chengbi spoke decisively, and his expression was extremely sad and angry, and he was a little impassioned.

Xu Guoliang couldn't bear to see the old superintendent's appearance, so he persuaded: "The name of the superintendent's writing has long been known to the world. At the moment of "Proceedings" and "Xuanyun's Proposals", there are numerous volumes and stories, and it is not difficult for the famous mountain cause to be passed down to future generations."

Lian Chengbi sighed when he heard the words: "I have no choice but to be a courtier, so I have to put aside my thoughts of searching for mountains and rivers, and do my best for the court. I was still thinking of retiring, but then I followed my long-cherished wish, and I didn't expect to fall into it. , there is no way out."

"The supervisor has just received the mandate of heaven, the spring and autumn are long, and the first-class war is over. My subordinates accompany you to roam the mountains and rivers, and learn from Xu Xiake to travel between the heavens and the earth, leaving pictures and records for the famous mountains and rivers." Xu Guoliang said sincerely.

"When An Degong returned home, Qianxi suddenly teased Wulingyan. Now, when I think of my previous poems, I can't help but feel emotional! I have heard of Xu Xiake. Before he was fifty years old, he traveled all over the famous mountains in the north and south. Mount Tai, Mount Song, Mount Hua, Mount Heng, Mount Wutai, Mount Huang, Mount Lu, Mount Putuo, Mount Tiantai, Mount Yandang, and have been to Mount Wuyi in Fujian as far as possible. I have written a lot of travel notes on famous mountains. I am fifty-eight years old this year. Get on him."

Lian Chengbi shook his head, took two sips of the tea handed over by Xu Guoliang, took Xu Guoliang's hand and said, "The way of serving as an official is like drinking, it's just for fun. The sage's heart lies in the mean, the mean, the right way in the world; It is the theorem of the world. But the mean is really hard to grasp. I advise you to wait until you can study and not become an official. Not to mention that the official career is dangerous, and you spend all day worrying about trivial things and living up to the good time. "

"Follow the supervisor's teaching." Xu Guoliang agreed and asked, "Tomorrow is the supervisor's fifty-ninth birthday, and the staff are going to hold a banquet in Xingyuan to wish the supervisor a birthday..."

"How can I bear it?" Lian Chengbi interrupted him. "Since I took office, they have followed them to experience their hardships. Now that fifteen years of bleak management have been in vain, how can I have the heart to teach them to force their faces?"

Xu Guoliang's heart was aching, and he forced himself to endure: "For the past fifteen years, it has become a custom for the generals of the line to prepare a banquet for the supervisor, and this time is especially indispensable, even if it is a scene. Otherwise, wouldn't it hurt everyone's life? Heart, how to restore the morale of everyone?"

Lian Chengbi nodded and said, "You are right. Go down and prepare. Keep everything simple and not extravagant."

The banquet was really simple. There were no opera troupes to sing operas or official prostitutes to sing and dance, and the food and drinks were not plentiful. Lian Chengbi vigorously accepted the congratulations from the entourage, sat for a while at the banquet, slightly held the cup, wet his blue-purple lips, and the banquet ended hastily. When he was about to leave the festival hall for the birthday celebration, he cupped his hands in tears and said, "Everyone is so kind, why is the city wall rewarding? It's dragging you down."

"We follow the supervisor and suppress the thieves for the imperial court, why is it a drag?" Xu Guoliang looked around at everyone, "Do you think so?"

Lian Chengbi's eyes filled with tears, and without waiting for everyone to answer, he sighed: "Thank you for your kindness, Chengbi has taken the lead. It would be great if the courtiers thought the same way! The heart will not change lightly, we can do it boldly, without too much Be more scruples. That being said, it is difficult to do. Not to mention courtiers, but the gentry of Jiangnan Zuo who can see us slaying thieves, they regard me as a supervisor who was demoted from the court, but they don’t want me to be The court assistant ministers, supervising teachers, coordinating the overall situation, and taking responsibility for eliminating thieves. He was not the minister of a province to seal the territory and defend the territory. He drove the Qing army out of the left boundary of Jiangnan, and he was done. The courtiers in Nanjing wanted to teach them not to hear rumors , understand my hardships, how can it be possible? I only understood Yuan Chonghuan's difficulties today, and he was ordered to leave the customs, how majestic! Unexpectedly, he ended up in the West City Lingchi, and the whole family was exiled. Are you complaining about the emperor? No, no! The emperor originally ordered Yuan Chonghuan wanted to commit crimes and meritorious deeds, but he was bewitched by those courtiers, so he had to endure the pain. Alas! No wonder the courtiers. When they went abroad, everyone was very eager, and they used money and grain arbitrarily for soldiers, horses, and horses, but they could not achieve success immediately. Can they not hate you and hate you? ?... You all followed me and became orphans, how can I deal with everyone."

Xu Guoliang was moved by his true feelings and wept: "The supervisor has been thinking too much, the supervisor and the saints are long, let's make plans again, we must not be attached to the gains and losses of one city, one place, one person, one person, one city, one place, one person, one person, one city, one place, one person, despair, and miss the opportunity to make up for it."

"Lord take care!"

Everyone got up one after another~www.wuxiaspot.com~ watched Lian Chengbi go out and entered the flower hall, staggering. Back in the flower hall, Liancheng Wall sat alone by the desk to rest, his thoughts were chaotic. He thought bitterly that the incident in Lujiang would cause an uproar in the imperial court, and there were not a few people who accused him of being incompetent. However, Jiang He and Anhui and other generals were arrogant and domineering, and did not listen to the dispatch. The two generals, Geng Zhongde and Qi Hao, were suspicious of themselves and obstructed the military strategy in every possible way, but they made him angry and resentful, and there was no way to vent. For a while, I felt dizzy and dizzy, and the handwriting on the official document was vague and difficult to read, so I simply walked into the room and lay down in my clothes. After falling asleep for a while, he was unwilling to get up.

"I can't live up to the grace of God, although I did not take the initiative to leave Beijing, but after all, I am the supervisor of the two provinces."

With a long snort, Liancheng Wall stood up, asked his entourage for a hot towel, wiped his face, and put on a violet squirrel robe. He walked to the case and reviewed the emergency documents. After approving one, he picked up another, which was actually sent by Jiang He. He was extremely fed up with Jiang He, who was arrogant and domineering, and was difficult to control. When he first received the decree, Lianchengbi once ordered Jiang He to march in pursuit of Anqing's fleeing enemy, and sent five consecutive arraignments. Jiang He actually shied away from being sick, and watched Anqing's Qing army escape the encirclement and fall back into Lujiang again. It was a crime. Damn it. When he came to Anqing, Jiang He and others used all kinds of excuses not to come to greet him, not to mention orders, so when he saw the words Jiang He, he really had a headache and boredom. He patiently opened the document, but found the document Complete nonsense.
