After hesitation, Fang Qian finally submitted the newly arrived transfer order to Tong Guan: "Shuai Tong, this is the newly issued promotion order for military generals from Taiwei Gao's joint military department office. Please check it out."

The Song Dynasty has always been extremely vigilant against military generals, which is not only reflected in the suppression of their status and power, but also in the fact that they will be transferred from one place to another every few years. Only in this way can they be eliminated from buying the morale of the army and avoid the situation of being too big to lose. It also requires the stable generals on the northwest and northern borders to be retained. The generals from other military prefectures often stay in one place for less than three years.

As the Privy Councilor of the dynasty, Tong Guan had naturally become accustomed to this. He heard this and just reached out to receive the order from Fang Qian casually. However, when he looked forward, he found that there was a trace of worry hidden in the other party's eyes, as if there was something unspeakable, which made him frown: "Why, is Gao Qiu making a random decision behind his back again?"

As a military general who understands military affairs, Tong Guan looked down on Gao Qiu, who could win the trust of the emperor by just being flattered by beating and beating horses, but he had no real materials and could finally suppress Gao Qiu. But he also knew that his identity was here after all, so even if the other party made a stupid decision, he was powerless to change anything.

"It's okay for the others, but this time, Taiwei Gao actually took up the idea of ​​Sun Qianli and decided to transfer him from Jiangzhou and send him to Qingzhou as the chief supervisor." Fang Qian finally pointed out the key point of the problem.

After hearing this, Tong Guan's eyebrows immediately frowned into a deep Sichuan character: "Sun Qianli only arrived in Jiangzhou for a year, why did he transfer him to another place? This is not in line with the rules."

"But it is clear in the document that this is a commendation for his contributions to Jiangzhou several times, and it is an promotion." Fang Qian smiled bitterly: "As long as a military officer makes military achievements, he will naturally be much faster than a civil servant, so it is not wrong to have such a decision from the Ministry of War. Moreover, Sun Qianli has indeed made great achievements in Jiangzhou in the past year. Our Privy Council must not fail to see it."

"Hmph, do they really want to be promoted to Sun Qianli's official position? It's clearly just to transfer him from Jiangzhou, and Qingzhou..." Tong Guan seemed to think of something and looked up at Fang Qian.

Fang Qian nodded knowingly. Long before sending the transfer order, he had figured out the key point and said, "The Qingzhou magistrate Murong Yanchao has a tough wrist and has always held the local military and political power in his hands. If Sun Qianli went to his job as a servant, he would be unlikely to have a chance to make a comeback. Moreover, he was also the recommended person by Grand Tutor Liang..."

"Are you saying that this incident was done by Gao Qiu and Liang Shicheng?" Tong Guan's expression became more and more serious, and his body was sitting a little straight, with a cold light flashing in his eyes.

"This should be the counterattack of Grand Tutor Liang against the Jiangzhou incident, and Grand Marshal Gao was naturally happy to go with the flow." Fang Qian and Zheng pointed: "So if Tong Shuai, if you want to interfere in this matter, you are afraid that there will be a lot of troubles."

Tong Guan pressed his eyebrows with his hand, and his face became colder and colder: "Liang Shicheng's revenge is so fast. If I take away one of him, Yuan Wang, will he get rid of my Sun Qianli with his backhand?"

"It should be that. The Xiaguan had just looked through some files and found that in the past three years, five military officers under Qingzhou Prefecture had been seized for various reasons, or even killed. Although the reasons were different, there was only one, that was, he did not follow Murong Yanchao's orders, which made him feel threatened." Fang Qian added another sentence.

"Hey, are you trying to send Sun Qianli to Murong Yanchao's knife? It's such a good plan and a good method." Tong Guan narrowed his eyes: "If I can't even protect such a useful talent, will anyone still be willing to do something for me in the future?"

Seeing this, Fang Qian quickly spoke out and said, "Ship Tong, it's not, it will only give them an excuse to join forces. Taifu Liang and Taiwei Gao already have the intention to cooperate. If we intervene in this matter, we may face the attacks from both sides, which may not be worth the loss."

Tong Guan waved his hand: "It's okay. Do you think I'm fighting alone? With Cai Xiang, I don't know that they dare to be too presumptuous. Moreover, Sun Qianli's actions this time were all about helping his ninth son remove the constraints. He can't think that he can't see anything, right?"

Fang Qian hesitated for a moment and did not say anything. In fact, he was not optimistic about this. With Cai Xiang's conscience, he might not have been able to pay attention to this matter, and would not have started a war with Gao Qiu and Liang Shicheng for the sake of a small Sun Tu. However, he was not easy to say this as Tong Guan, and only he had tried it himself would have the answer.

Facts have proved that only scholars understand scholars, and it is impossible for Tong Guan, a eunuch and military general, to guess Cai Jing's thoughts. When the court discussion ended two days later, Tong Guan found Cai Jing and wanted to ask him to come forward to deny the order, but Cai Jing pushed it out in an understatement.

"Taiwei Tong, there is a difference between civil and military affairs, so I won't argue about this. Since Sun Tu has the ability to make great contributions to the suppression of bandits in Jiangzhou, then going to a place like Qingzhou where bandits are affected is also a great benefit to the court and the people. You can't be partial because of some prejudices."

"And I also believe that Sun Tu can make great achievements in Qingzhou. As long as he can all the bandits in Qingzhou are calmed down, I will personally recommend him to His Majesty to go to the border areas to show his strengths and let him go to war with the people of Xixia and Liao to promote the prestige of the Great Song Dynasty. Such talents should be well trained, don't you?"

Facing Cai Jing's high-sounding statement, Tong Guan had nothing to say. Only then did he realize that Cai Xiang could not stand up for himself or Sun Tu. Although Sun Tu just got rid of a potential opponent for his son, his nature as a politician could allow Cai Jing to break up and turn against others.

It was not until he watched Cai Jing walk away slowly and could no longer see his back that Tong Guan snorted softly, and then sighed again. Now, he could not take the risk of protecting Sun Tu: "It's only up to his own fortune. The only thing I can do is to drag this back a little bit and make him prepare." This is also the end of kindness and righteousness.

When Tong Guan's letter was sent to Jiangzhou, it was already March. At this time, the people of Jiangzhou had already walked out of the previous accidents and injuries, and started the spring plowing and busyness of the new year again. After all, no matter what kind of harm they had encountered before, their lives would still have to go on.

Sun Tu was also training his countrymen as always. In his opinion, after eliminating Yuan Wang this time, he was able to establish a firm foothold in the Jiangzhou officialdom. He could finally relax his mind and show his strength here to train a truly capable elite for the Song Dynasty.

But at noon that day, the manager of the Tong family who came from Tokyo suddenly came to the military camp and submitted the letter written by Tong Guan: "Officiale Sun, this is an urgent letter from my master who asked the young master to send it, saying it is related to your future."

When Sun Tu heard this, his heart sank slightly. If Tong Guan takes it so seriously, he will send a confidant to send a letter. This matter must be small. He immediately opened the envelope and read it quickly. After reading the content above, his face really sank. After a while, he showed a little smile and said, "Thank you, Tong Shuai, for your concern, and ask the housekeeper to go back and report to Tong Shuai. The official knows that he has done his best."

When the butler left, Lu Da and Yang Zhi, who had already discovered that Sun Tu's expression was not good, came over and said, "Sanlang, is there something wrong with this?" Then he found that Sun Tu's hand had clenched into a fist at this time, and had already pinched Tong Guan's handwritten letter, his eyes filled with unrestrained anger.

It was not until they heard the two of them that Sun Tu breathed out a breath: "It seems that I overestimated the character of those imperial officials, whether it was Tong Guan or Cai Jing, what they were best at was to burn bridges across the river. I didn't expect that my efforts in Jiangzhou this year only resulted in such a result!" As he said that, he handed the deformed letter to Lu Da: "You see."

After seeing this, the two of them suddenly looked angry: "The court actually wants to transfer Sanlang, you to Qingzhou? In other words, all our efforts in Jiangzhou were in vain, but it was just a waste of money for the latecomers and Cai Jiu?"

"Yes, I didn't expect that I did so much, but I still couldn't let Tong Guan regard me as my own person. Just because of Liang Shicheng's threat, he abandoned me without hesitation." Sun Tu smiled coldly: "It sounds nice in his letter. Let me be careful of the Qingzhou Prefect Murong Yanchao and let me prepare early, but apart from these useless reminders, what can he do for me?"

"Sanlang, how are you going to deal with this?" Yang Zhi asked with some concern, and Lu Da even snorted: "I had said that the Song Dynasty government is not reliable now, and it really made me think."

"What else can I do? The Privy Council, the Ministry of War's transfer order will be sent soon. Unless I don't want to be an official anymore, I can only follow their wishes. Even if the Qingzhou prefect regards me as a thorn in my eyes, I can only face it." Sun Tu gritted his teeth. Then, he looked at the two people in front of him again: "I wonder what the two brothers have? If you want to continue to stay here, I will make arrangements. I believe Cai Jiu is happy to have you help him in Jiangzhou to train troops..."

Before he could finish his words, Lu Da said loudly: "The Sa family is not so unfaithful. Naturally, they want to go to Qingzhou with you!"

Yang Zhi hesitated for a moment, and then smiled and said, "It is the kindness of your Sun Sanlang who can return to the army. How could I abandon you at this time? And I believe that with our ability, even if Qingzhou is really a dragon and tiger den, I will accompany you to make a breakthrough!"

When Sun Tu heard the two of them talking like this, he finally smiled on his face: "I feel relieved when two brothers say this. Let us go to Qingzhou together and fight for a bloody way for ourselves!" At the end of his words, a sharp light flashed in his eyes, and some of the shackles that had been imprisoning him were all broken at this moment!
