The rise of the poor

Chapter 1354 Wei Guogong's Stealing

"In terms of good luck, it's really not as good as your cheap niece and son-in-law's good luck. A mere kid from a poor family, who won the first prize in his studies, married a wife who married the richest daughter of your old Li family, and was not as good as a weak crown when he became an official. It has reached the fifth grade." Wei Guogong Xu Peng raised his wine glass, respected Linhuai Marquis Li Tingzhu, and continued the topic just now.

"Fortune? I used to feel that way, but I don't see it that way now." Linhuai Marquis Li Tingzhu and Wei Guogong Xu Peng raised their wine glasses, and after drinking the wine in the glass, they shook their heads slightly and said slowly.

"Oh, why?" Wei Guogong Xu Pengju asked curiously.

"Let's talk about studying first. You must be lucky to be the number one scholar, but is it possible to be the number one scholar if you are lucky?! Apart from being smart, Zihou's diligence is rare in my life. He is studying diligently at the third watch and the fifth watch chicken, and even I won the first prize, and I am also diligent in my studies. As for the sensuality of dogs and horses, I have never heard of it. If the two brats in my family have a son and work hard, I can wake up laughing when I sleep. I won’t say much about getting a wife. Elders, it is not good to make irresponsible remarks on the life of the juniors in the backyard. As an official, Zihou’s official status as a fifth rank cannot be explained by the word luck. Let me give two examples. First, Zihou was in the It is not something ordinary people can do with bare buttocks in the capital to inspect the Taicang bank. Second, he recovered in Jingnan by virtue of his solid military exploits. More than 820 Japanese pirates attacked Jingnan County. Against more than 820 Japanese pirates, not only successfully defended Jingnan County, but also captured the leader of the Japanese pirates, [-], [-], brother Dapeng, you, as the garrison of Yingtian and the governor of the Chinese army, have gained another victory over the years. How about the head of the pirates?!"

Linhuai Hou Li Tingzhu put down his wine glass and praised Zhu Pingan, emphasizing that Zhu Ping'an's success was not due to luck.

In fact, Linhuai Hou really looked down on Zhu Ping'an at first, but later changed his view a little bit until now.

"Ahem, isn't it that Japanese pirates have never come to Yingtian? I have no chance. As generals, we have the blood of our ancestors in our bones. Leading soldiers to fight is not weaker than others. If Japanese pirates dare to attack us, Yingtian, Let us kill one, come two of us and kill one pair, come a thousand of us and build them into a capital."

Wei Guogong Xu Pengju coughed, a little embarrassed, and after pouring himself a drink, he said proudly again.

"That's true." Marquis of Linhuai Li Tingzhu nodded, but did not deny Wei Guogong's rhetoric.

"Which branch of the procuratorate is he in charge of when he comes to Jiangsu and Zhejiang?" Wei Guogong Xu Pengju asked again, "Do you want to operate it and stay in Yingtian. Recently, Japanese pirates seem to be crazy. It is very risky to go to the local area to patrol. Yingtian City is big and deep, and there are many garrisons. The Japanese pirate Xiaoxiao dare not come to seek death.

"It's too late. As soon as he came, he took over the responsibility of Jiangsu and Zhejiang's punishment and the military preparation of the inspector." Marquis Linhuai sighed.

"Bingbei?! This is a position that usually takes the blame and doesn't produce results. I took over Bingbei as soon as I came here. Brother Jun, I didn't say that, whether it was the job of taking over Bingbei this time, or the last time I was in Beijing got involved in Yang Jisheng's impeachment of Mr. Yan Ge, you, nephew and son-in-law, acted too hastily." Wei Guogong twitched his lips and commented.

"Who says no, Zihou has the ability, but he is a little too hasty in doing things. However, young people, young people, are also normal. For example, the emperor came to visit my house the other day, talked about the Japanese pirates, and learned about the navy. In view of the current situation, Zihou suggested that I go to Shushengshang, and on the grounds that the Japanese pirates have been invading for years and the warships are not enough, I asked to build two hundred warships and restore the old quota, so as to drive out the Japanese pirates and play the role of the navy." Linhuai Hou said So he told Wei Guogong the suggestion that Zhu Pingan made when he visited him the day before yesterday.

"Huh?! Request to build more warships and restore the old forehead, so as to play the role of the navy." Wei Guogong's eyes couldn't help but light up when he heard this, as if he had been enlightened and someone had opened up the two veins of Ren and Du.

"Yes, even combined with the hydrological situation, it was mentioned that please change the sand ship to facilitate the naval operations."

Linhuaihou continued.

When Wei Guogong heard this, his eyes became brighter, like two bonfires under the dark night.

"Zihou's suggestion is good, but it's too hasty. The Holy Spirit only approved the halving of the warships by his predecessor Shi Caojiang a year ago. At this time, I am going to remonstrate to add more warships and restore the old quota. This is not contrary to the Holy Majesty. Is it? Although Zi Hou also said that the situation is different from one time to another, the Japanese plague was still under control a few years ago, but now the Japanese plague is out of control and rampant. But it is still a bit too hasty."

Linhuaihou tapped on the table lightly, and concluded.

"Well, it's really too hasty." Wei Guogong nodded slightly.

"Okay, let's not talk about being thick, let's talk about the recent appointment and removal of officials." Linhuai Hou poured Wei Guogong a glass of wine, and brought the topic to the recent appointment and dismissal of officials.

However, Wei Guogong was a little absent-minded next, and Linhuaihou knew that Wei Guogong's back house was in chaos recently.Wei Guogong's first wife Zhang died early and left no heirs. According to the eldest son inheritance system, if there is no eldest son or first son, then the eldest son should be established to inherit the title.However, Wei Guogong did not intend to make the eldest son of the concubine inherit the title, but intended to make the son of his beloved concubine Zheng to inherit the title.Even, in order to achieve the goal, Wei Guogong also intended to operate, and named his concubine Zheng as Wei Guogong's wife.For this reason, Duke Wei's mansion was in a state of turmoil in the back house, and it was impossible to deal with it.Marquis Linhuai thought Wei Guogong was thinking about the back house, but he didn't think about it.

After having a drink, Duke Wei returned to the mansion in a hurry. Looking at Duke Wei's hurried back, Marquis Linhuai was sure that Duke Wei was making trouble about the back house.

But what Marquis Linhuai didn't know was that Duke Wei returned to the mansion in a hurry, not to put out the fire in the back house, but to come to the study room immediately, set up pens, inks, papers and inkstones, and began to draft memorials.

"Xu Pengju, the garrison of Yingtian and in charge of the governor's office of the Chinese army, gave a performance"

If Li Tingzhu, Marquis of Linhuai, were here, he would be shocked to find that the memorial written by Wei Guogong almost copied the advice Zhu Pingan gave him. From the reason to the suggestion, it was almost verbatim.

"Brother Jun, I'm sorry. Since you don't adopt Zhu Zihou's suggestion, then I will use it with shame. You also know that the elder brother's elder son is not good, but the younger son is decent. The elder brother wants the younger son. Xijue, my brother needs this achievement, if the emperor approves of my brother's memorial, then the next brother will be able to operate. In fact, rather than saying that Zhu Zihou acted too hastily, it is better to say that you are too cautious towards brother."

After Wei Guogong finished writing the memorabilia, he began to talk to himself while checking the memorabilia for any typographical omissions.
