Chapter four hundred and ninety-eight of the governor's courtship
"Governor! Governor! Governor! Governor! I am polite after I was born in the evening." Wu Shigong wore a long robe of a literati and a literati scarf on his head. He bowed deeply to the civil and military officials in the hall and performed a standard literati etiquette.
While the officials in the hall were stunned, Governor Hong Chengchou smiled and said, "Don't be too polite to respect each other. Today is a private banquet, so please take your seat soon."
Under the guidance of his slaves, Wu Shigong sat at the bottom of the civil servant and vaguely pressed down the seats of the military officer. At this time, the hall could no longer remain quiet. The officials whispered and talked about the "changing pig man" Wu Shigong.
When he saw the two adults who were the top leaders frowned, Guan Kesong, who was the host, immediately shouted: "Today welcoming the king's army, and the Runing place was also very happy. I specially arranged a song and dance to offer it to everyone to enjoy. Come on!"
With Guan Kesong's call, a team of Kabuki was arranged by Li's mother, and more than a dozen flower cards accompanying the wine were accompanied by the officials in turn.
When passing through the Runing Mansion City, Guan Kesong invited civil and military personnel from the army to attend the banquet arranged in the Runing Mansion City. Before the banquet, Governor Hong Chengchou and Governor Xuan Mo both asked Guan Kesong whether they had invited "Runing Xianliang" to accompany him.
Guan Kesong had no idea that the "Ru Ning virtuous" mentioned by these two adults specifically refers to Wu Shigong. He thought he was a local famous scholar and a large family of officials and gentry, so he immediately replied: "Yes"!
But when the banquet began, Hong Chengchou and Xuanmo were surprised to find that Wu Shigong was not present. They quickly asked Guan Kesong why, and Guan Kesong realized that he had messed up.
There is no way, send a quick horse to send a message! Wu Shigong, who received the news, would be hard to refuse. The camp is so close to the city, and there is no reason to refuse this banquet. Besides, what Wu Shigong is afraid of is the military discussion, the governor's sword. And this kind of private banquet is at most. "Viral Snake" like Wu Shigong has never been afraid of anyone!
The banquet was a singing and dancing to peace, and the spring scenery was not discussed in detail. But after a few singing and dancing, Xuan Mo took the excuse to leave the lobby. After a while, a slave came to Wu Shigong and said with his ears: "Governor, please invite me!"
The slave led Wu Shigong to the back hall. Xuan Mo had already sat down on a chair. When he saw Wu Shigong coming in, he raised his hand to signal him to sit down opposite him. The slave quickly brought a cup of tea and then retreated immediately.
"Long respect! I asked Side (Zhou Junwu) to you that day, not for it. I just wanted to train troops well and maintain the peace of mind. This is a good talent, so I wanted to let Changjing help me." Xuan Mo was very polite.
When Wu Shigong heard Xuan Mo running up, he was just talking about family matters and did not use any official language. So he also replied respectfully: "I feel ashamed of my son! I am quite disrespectful to Brother Side, so I apologize to the governor here."
"It's okay!" Xuan Mo said with a smile. "Si De is not like Chang Jing's place of residence for a long time. He was quite unfamiliar with his relationship accidents, but after he was a neighbor and old man, he hoped that he would support Chang Jing in the future. Chang Jing also needed to give him more advice!"
Wu Shigong quickly saluted again and said, "Governor, please be polite."
After the greetings, Wu Shigong waited for Xuan Mo to express his intentions. Xuan Mo pondered for a moment, and then said to Wu Shigong: "This time I recommend it to the court. It is for the peace of the people of Henan. Although Chang Jing was impeached, I am also a little bit in the court and should be fine. Governor Hong now needs to help encircle and suppress the bandit army, and I also need our army to be peaceful. Can Chang Jing choose?"
"What! What?" Wu Shigong grew up in surprise. Xuan Mo's words were too informative, which made Wu Shigong unable to react for a while. Someone impeached him. Who was it? Wu Shigong did too many "bad things" so he couldn't judge it for a while. Of course, Wu Shigong didn't know that in fact, all his "bad things" were impeached by officials.
However, in Xuan Mo's words, it was also revealed that Xuan Mo was pleading with the court for Wu Shigong. Besides, Wu Shigong certainly refused to let the Runing army leave the local area, so he immediately replied with a reply from Li Baotao: "I followed the head of the governor."
Xuan Mo nodded with satisfaction and continued, "What's the need for Changjing? I can do my best?" Xuan Mo was waiting for Wu Shigong to issue the conditions.
"I dare not work too much for the governor!" Wu Shigong came up and was polite, "But his subordinates suffered too many casualties this time, and they had to reorganize the army and spend a lot of money, and the Runing army has been owed food and wages for a long time. Hope..."
"First, give Chang 20,000 silver and 10,000 stones of grain. Is it enough?" Xuan Mo interrupted Wu Shigong's words and immediately stated the conditions.
Wu Shigong nodded with a smile, and his heart could not be too dark. So he continued, "I have to say that the soldiers and armor are broken, especially the lack of gunpowder. I hope the governor will understand it!"
"I'll give you three hundred armor and a thousand hu of gunpowder."
"The generals of the two military commanders of Ru Ning and Guide were ordered by the late son!"
"Can!"
"Runing, Guide's two prefectures are conducive to the suppression of bandits. You can make a decision alone after you are young."
"Can!"
"There is no need for the young man, please ask for instructions!"
Wu Shigong knew that Xuan Mo agreed so readily, so Xuan Mo's request must be very high, but he never expected that Xuan Mo's request was actually what Wu Shigong dreamed of.
"I, Chang-Chang-Jing, lead 10,000 troops, and is not subject to the quota of the Ministry of War. In addition, General Li's Regiment Town must ensure peace in the south of Nanyang, Runing and Guide. In addition, the three counties in the south of Ruzhou and Kaifeng also need to pay attention to the chief. What should I pay attention to?"
In Xuan Mo's opinion, he was a lion who spoke up. There were only so many people in the Runing Army, but he had to pacify half of Henan. It was also a very challenging task.
But in Wu Shigong's opinion, he suddenly had sufficient reasons to enter the area he had long wanted to enter. Wu Shigong would never let go of such a beautiful thing.
But when he was afraid that Xuan Mo would see it, Wu Shigong pretended to be hesitant and thought for a while before answering: "Southern Sheng will definitely live up to the entrustedness of the governor. However, the western part of Nanyang is far from the Runing Army. Even though the young Sheng is far away from the Wansheng, there are even Shaanxi bandits there. So, Wansheng can only protect Nanyang Prefecture City, and the rest of the places are not as strong as possible."
"It's okay!" Xuan Mo said with a smile. Wu Shigong's agreement had exceeded Xuan Mo's psychological bottom line. He originally thought that Wu Shigong would add at most three counties in Kaifeng Prefecture. "This time Governor Hong left for the bandit army, hoping that he would succeed. But if the bandit army enters Henan again, Chang Jing can only protect the city. This is not my Henan fault, Chang Jing doesn't need to worry too much!"
