Chapter 604 Will the capital be in chaos?(2/2)

After Li Rusong thought about it for a while, he felt that what Supervisor Lin said made sense.
Besides, when Ma Gui rushed to aid Ningxia, he marched from outside the border wall to save time. Could it be that he was not even as good as Ma Gui?
So after making a plan and bringing food and grass, the officers and soldiers from Jingying, Datong Town, and Xuanfu Town set off eastward.
Nothing happened at first, but after arriving at the boundary of Datong Town, Supervisor Lin disappeared from time to time throughout the night.
Supervisor Lin's disappearing technique delayed the march plan for several days, which made the general Li Rusong very upset.
"I believed your ghost!" Li Rusong asked Lin Supervisor: "Is this what you call showing off your martial arts to intimidate the captives?"
The exhausted Supervisor Lin didn't want to argue with the rude Li Rusong, so he found a car, climbed in and started to catch up on his sleep.
You are a political imbecile, what do you know about boasting and intimidation?
Do you know what it means to fight for military conspiracies between two countries first, and then to fight for diplomatic relations?
After entering Xuanfu Town, he had to stay for a few more days because Li Rusong needed time to disperse the Xuanfu Town soldiers.
But Supervisor Lin went to Zhangjiakou Fort for the reason of observing the horse market.
More specifically, north of Zhangjiakou Fort.
It was not until the day before Li Rusong was ready to leave again that the organized and undisciplined Lin Supervisor Army Shi Shiran returned to Xuanfu Town.
General Li, who prided himself on being strict in running the army, muttered silently: "Don't be angry, don't be angry, there are only the last two hundred miles left."
That night Supervisor Lin stayed in the governor's court. Thanks to the long-term governor system in border towns, the governor here has not changed. He is still his eldest nephew Wang Xiangqian.
In the evening, there was a family dinner and wine, and Lin Tailai said the most serious words in the laziest posture.
"I have been far away in the northwest this year, so it is inevitable that I will make mistakes. Can you tell me about the situation in Beijing?"
Although Xuanfu is also a border town, it is too close to the capital. Moreover, since the opening of the horse market, there has been a large flow of people with the capital, so it is well-informed and comprehensive about all aspects of the capital.
Wang Xiang smiled dryly and said: "Instead of chatting about the capital's affairs, I would rather hear about your deeds, especially the feat of being the first to seize the gate."
Lin Tailai then asked: "How did everyone in the imperial court react when word of my shocking feat of ascending and seizing the gate first reached the capital?"
Wang Xiangqian thought for a while and replied: "If I had to use one word to describe the mentality of everyone at that time, it would be anger."
Lin Tailai: "."
What the hell is this word? What kind of low-quality citizens are these? Does anyone treat first-time heroes like this?
Wang Xiangqian stopped joking and said, "First of all, on behalf of the Ministry of Household Affairs, my father would like to express his gratitude to you.
The Kuaibai Rebellion has already consumed hundreds of thousands of silver. If it continues to be delayed, Taicang silver will bottom out again!
Fortunately, you climbed into Pocheng first and were able to stop the loss in time, and the household department can breathe a sigh of relief.
But my father said that if you go on an expedition next time, you must not take such risks.
Because you are not a person now, but the leader of a group of people, and the husband of my little aunt, you cannot take your life lightly and have no scruples."
Lin Tailai replied: "I understand. But there will still be war in a year or two. As long as you go into battle, you will inevitably take risks."
Wang Xiangqian knew that Lin Tailai had very strong opinions, so just a few words of advice would be enough, but more would be useless.
Then he added: "The biggest event for the imperial court this year was that Wu Shilai, the censor of Zuodu, died of illness, and Lu Guangzu, the most senior minister of the Ministry of Punishment, was moved to be the censor of Zuodu."
Lin Tailai had nothing to say about this matter.
According to the historical trajectory, Wu Shilai, the chief minister of A Fu Shen, should have died of illness.
Lu Guangzu, who was from the Qingliu faction, had already had a brush with him when he recommended the Ministry of Personnel Minister last time, and he was also the oldest minister.
He wants to be the censor of Zuodu, and there is really no way he can stop him, unless Lin Tailai personally comes off and replaces him.
Or maybe Wang Shizhen no longer wants to be a Heavenly Official and fights with Lu Guangzu, which is obviously impossible.
It was just a hardship for Shen Shoufu. He originally had two main pillars of his party: one, the Heavenly Official of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, ran away in old age, and the other, the Zuodu Censor, died of illness.
No wonder Shen Shoufu at this time in history was discouraged and ran away with his bucket.
But in this time and space, it's okay. The chief assistant still has Lin Tailai, the front door guest, to act as a fat man.
"Since Lu Guangzu became the censor of Zuodu, who then became the minister of the Ministry of punishment?" Lin Tailai asked again.
It was probably during this period that Ting Tui was sent, and he indeed received no news during his march.
Wang Xiangqian replied: "I heard it was Sun Piyang, the censor of Nanjing."
Lin Tailai frowned. Sun Piyang's political spectrum was quite vague.
But judging from the fact that Chen Younian nominated Sun Piyang when he was elected Minister of the Ministry of Personnel last time, Sun Piyang is at least a sympathizer of the Qingliu forces at present.
So, the power of the Qingliu Party members in the upper echelons of the imperial court has rebounded again?
Thinking of this, Lin Tailai couldn't help complaining: "I don't understand why the situation always worsens as long as I am not in the capital!
The last time I took leave to go back to my hometown and was away from the capital, the Qingliu forces captured two left ministers from the Ministry of Household Rites and the Ministry of Rites!
And this time, the Qingliu forces stole a minister again!"
Wang Xiangqian was about to say a few words of comfort when he heard Lin Tai say:
"But it doesn't matter, I'm used to it anyway! Every time I return to the capital, I have to make some arrangements first!
Since they stole a minister this time, let’s kill one of them to make peace!”
Wang Xiangqian: "..."
I actually wanted to appease Lin Tailai just now, it was completely unnecessary!
