一二五章 兄弟密谈

“你当人家都是傻的？现在有哪个不说，湘军人人发了大财，都把抢到的银子，用船往湖南运，买田买地。就说咱们荷叶塘好了，我听说周围的地价，已经去到三十三两银子一亩，比往年足足高了一倍！这是几个月军饷的事情吗？一旦在朝堂之上对景的时候拿出来说，这就是事！”
“朝里那些大老，坐而论道，当然舒服得很，有本事让他们来打打看？”曾国荃冷笑道，“大哥，我给他们来个抵死不认，没有证据，谁能说什么！”
“大臣以心迹罪状，也不尽是证据的事情。”曾国藩摇摇头，“再说了，你的吉字大营吃饱，旁边的友军，又该如何？关卓凡的轩军有江苏的关厘养起，不缺钱，还算好说。鲍超张运兰他们的兵，是自己人，我总要有一句话交待给他们。江宁的善后，也要一笔巨数，从哪里来？”
“大哥，这一年多，吉字大营蹲在江宁，一点旁的进项也没有，不就指望破城之后，可以滋润一下么？至于鲍春霆他们，大哥放心，早就在各处抢够了，你丝毫都不用替他们操心！”曾国荃说的，倒也有理有据，“大哥，我跟你说实话，从江宁出来的财货，我手里只有一小半，大半都已经进了兄弟们的荷包。要是逼他们交出来，是要出大事情的。”
这是实话，曾国藩听了亦梀然心惊——想让底下的兵士把吃进去的再吐出来，若是激起营啸，那就更麻烦。
“然则，多少还是要拿一些，抚恤地方。”
“大哥。这该户部给钱！要我们吉字大营拿，我想不通。”
曾国藩见这个倔强的老九还是这副样子，摇摇头，先说另一件事。
“关卓凡把李秀成、洪福瑱这些逆首送给你，你怎么看？”
“多谢他啰，”曾国荃笑道。“既然送了来，这事自然算是两边的功劳。大哥在折子里，替他多说两句好话就是了。”
“多说两句好话！”曾国藩无奈地笑了起来，“你倒说得轻巧。老九，你有没有想过，这件事既然算两边都有功劳，那么打破江宁。是不是也就算是两边的功劳呢？”
“这……怎么能算？”曾国荃涨红了脸。
“怎么不能算？”曾国藩哼了一声，“你以为是毛脚女婿去丈母娘家，吃完了饭菜一抹嘴，就什么事都没有啦？”
曾国荃说不出话来了。
“他不是白送给你的！不过这个情，咱们领了，毕竟他替你弥补了一个绝大的漏洞！照你原来的说法，洪福瑱烧死了，李秀成死在乱军里面。如果朝廷追究这件事，这是多大的麻烦！”
一直被攻克江宁的胜利冲昏了头脑的曾国荃，现在才清醒过来，不由出了一身冷汗。
“关卓凡这个人，有大才，不过心机也深得很。”曾国藩异常郑重地说，“你以后如果再跟他打交道。要小心一点，也不妨让着他一点。”
“我倒没有看出来……”曾国荃定神想了想，迟疑着说，“我去他营里道谢的时候。他倒是谦逊得很。”
“哦……他是怎么说的？”
“他跟我客气，说还好是轩军侥幸，捉到了这些人，不然落在左宗棠和沈葆桢的手里，那就麻烦了。”
“你有没有想过，他这是在提醒你？”曾国藩问道，“说起来，要是真的落在他们手里，那就真有大麻烦了——抓住湘军的这个马脚，季高和幼丹两个，岂有不大做文章的？”
“我也没有亏待他！”曾国荃争辩似的说，“我从营里，足足挑了四车东西给他，怎么也值一百万银子。”
“什么？”曾国藩大吃一惊，“他收了么？”
“到底还是退回来了，只留下礼单，说心意领了。”曾国荃说完，又加一句，“这是他自己不要，可不怪我。”
“唔……”曾国藩不说话了，沉思半晌，颓然道：“老九，你办了一件糊涂事。”
曾国荃迷惑不解地看着大哥，还不知道自己错在了哪里。
“江宁城内，财货全无，这是我折子上的原话！既然财货全无，你送他的东西，哪里来的？”曾国藩轻轻拍了拍弟弟的手臂，心想这个老九，处处受制于人而还不自知，“他没拿你的东西，算是撇清了自己，可是那张礼单，就是铁证如山啊。”
“这……”曾国荃张口结舌，过了一会，霍地站起身来，“大哥，你是说他要对付我？”
“老九，你坐着，坐着。”
曾国藩宽慰着，劝了他坐下，自己目光炯炯地想了好一会，才接着说下去。
“这一百万银子，你不能留下，交给我先用在善后上。将来万一扯出这件事来，也算是预留了一个地步。”
“是。”曾国荃的心里，仍然惊疑不定。
“单凭一张礼单，也不能说人家就一定是存心故意。更何况，他是个绝顶聪明之人，不会平白无故地跟你为难。”曾国藩轻轻叹了一口气，摇了摇头，“只不过，我怕李少荃以后会恨上你。”
“关李鸿章什么事？”曾国荃愕然。
“我不能不送关卓凡一个人情，”曾国藩淡淡地说，“少荃的苏抚，怕是保不住了。”
