Chapter 1285 Eighty-four real talents
It was decided that Su Yao would also go to Zhejiang with him. Emperor Yuanfeng asked Xiao Heng: “How much time do you think you will have to train the navy when you go to Zhejiang?”
This question is a bit difficult to answer, Xiao Heng did not exaggerate his ability, and said cautiously: “You still have to go and see it to find out. It stands to reason that Duke Ping has outstanding ability and has made great achievements over the years. If he is embarrassed, I will I’m afraid things are a bit complicated.”
Emperor Yuanfeng was very satisfied with Xiao Heng’s attitude. Young people are not afraid of lack of momentum, but they are afraid that if they are too aggressive, they will not know their weight.
He hummed: “Everything is discussed with your officials. This time, let Sun Yongning follow you. He is an old man. With him, many tricks can’t be hidden from your eyes.”
Xiao Heng should be.
In time for November, he officially set off with Su Yao.
On the day they left, many people in the capital got the news, and Mrs. Wang knew it too. She rushed to the family temple outside the city to tell Wang Banrong the news, and said with a wry smile, “Now that Concubine Taisun is gone, you. Even if you regret it, it’s too late.”
It has been a year since the incident with Mr. Wang. During this period, although Mrs. Su and Su Xingyi’s attitudes were not warm enough, Su Rong and Su Yao worked very hard to improve their relationship at first. Mrs. Wang Look in the eyes.
It’s a pity that my daughter doesn’t know what she is thinking, and she refuses to bow her head no matter what, and it’s too late to regret it now — Su invites back, I don’t know when it will be, by that time, Su Rong will probably already have it. Got a new lady.
After all, people are changeable.
Wang Banyan was unmoved, she lowered her eyebrows and tapped the wooden fish, but said in a deep voice, “You have to do big things, and God will treat them kindly.”
Mrs. Wang couldn’t help sighing when she saw that she couldn’t get in the oil and salt: “Even if you really don’t want to go back to Yongning Hou’s mansion, can’t you go back to our own home? What are you doing? Your father did it. That kind of thing, the Su family can do this, they are already forgiven.”
These words Mrs. Wang said repeatedly.
It’s not that she is snobbish, but she really cares about her daughter’s future.
Wang Banyan looked at his mother seriously: “Mother, I’m going to have a shave in a few days. I’m no longer your daughter, so you shouldn’t have given birth to me.”
Mrs. Wang was so angry that she didn’t know what to do. She wanted to scold a few ugly words, but she couldn’t. She could only cry and go back to Wang’s house.
Old Mrs. Wang was more open to her thoughts. Hearing what Mrs. Wang said, she said lightly, “People walk the road by themselves. Since she chose this road, let her go by herself.”
It is meaningless to evaluate whether Wang Banyan is doing right or not. All they can do is to try their best to make Wang Banrong live better. She wants to go this way herself, what can others do?
The old lady Wang shook her head: “It’s really hard-hearted, nothing else, it’s just like her father. Her father has been wrong all his life, and she still can’t figure it out, what else can she do?”
Mrs. Wang was speechless.
Old Mrs. Wang cheered her up: “Isn’t there any hope in the family, didn’t the boss also follow Su Rong to Zhejiang this time? I hope he can make some achievements and give you something to rely on.”
Xiao Heng took Su Yao to board the ship in Tongzhou, and went all the way south along the canal. The imperial grandson traveled, and the specifications were naturally not bad. There were about forty cabins on a few-storey high ship, which were very large. Knowing the situation in Zhejiang, I discussed with Sun Yongning and the others every day.
Along the way, many local officials picked up the car to meet the Taisun and his wife, but he also refused almost all of them. Except for a few senior officials of the frontier, the rest did not meet.
Sun Yongning breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that he was so calm.
Following a reliable master is too rare.
He also talked to Xiao Heng about Zhejiang in private, shook his head and said: “I heard that the soldiers in Zhejiang are all soldiers, and everyone is messing around for a military salary, and they turn around when they meet Japanese pirates. just run.”
In this situation, how can we train good soldiers? It’s no use changing anyone.
Xiao Heng also knew this from Su Rong’s letters. In Baishitan a while ago, thousands of people were chased and beaten by more than a thousand Japanese pirates, and many women and children were also kidnapped. Simply infuriating.
He threw away the document in his hand, frowned, but his attitude was firm: “Since the court has set this policy, this must be done! Master Sun, I know your worries are nothing more than the fear of paying a lot of money after a lot of money. If the bamboo basket is empty, it will shake the status of the East Palace. But if you want me to say, it doesn’t have to be like this, it’s all human, and this palace has always believed in this truth!”
Sun Yongning appreciates Xiao Heng very much. Xiao Heng is a person who does practical things and always does more than talk.
He nodded: “His Royal Highness, I will recommend someone to you. This person may be of some use.”
Xiao Heng snorted and asked, “Who is this person who is worthy of your personal recommendation?”
“It’s not about recommending him.” Sun Yongning explained briefly: “The old minister worked with this person when he was in the northwest. Although he was young, he was already able to write good strategies based on the frontier defense in the northwest. , and not only has a solid theory, but is also a good player in fighting. He once led a patrol of more than 70 people, and after encountering the Oara people, he even retreated without saying a word, and killed more than a dozen cavalrymen!”
Xiao Heng’s eyes lit up.
When Zilai Dazhou fought against the Oirat cavalry, if they lost, they would lose to the cavalry. Dazhou’s soldiers were much higher, which also led to the fact that every Dazhou’s cavalry against Oara’s cavalry had to be outnumbered to win.
Under better circumstances, the 20 Dazhou cavalry would probably be able to match the last Orah cavalry.
But Sun Yongning said that this person, with a patrol of more than 70 people, ran into the Oval cavalry outside the pass. In addition to retreating, he was able to kill more than a dozen enemies!
This must be a genius!
He immediately asked: “I wonder where this general is now?”
Sun Yongning smiled: “To tell you the truth, I am doing a thousand households in Zhejiang. When you arrive, I will introduce you to him. His name is Qi Tianyou.”
Qi Tianyou! Xiao Heng thought about it carefully, and felt that this person’s name was very familiar. After thinking about it, he remembered: “I know this person, he is the thousand households who led troops to help Baishitan, right?”
He had studied the battle reports at that time and had some impressions of this person’s name.
