"National...National Duke...No...Okay...thing happened...that big thing..."

At the White Tiger Festival Hall of Duke Wei’s Mansion, a panting voice sounded at the door, attracting the attention of Cao Dazhong, Xu Hongji and Liao Yongquan who were discussing affairs in the hall.

"Master Zhou, what happened? He was so panicked?" Seeing Zhou Xian running in such a panic, Liao Yongquan, as the Minister of War, immediately became unhappy. Logically, Zhou Xian was also a Jinshi in the Wanli period and had been an official for more than ten years. Why was he so panicked when encountering things? Isn't this a joke for Cao Dazhong beside him?

After listening to Liao Yongquan's immediate boss, Zhou Shi slowed down, but the panic on his face did not fade away: "Dude, no, that Yang Feng... Yang Feng is going to mutiny!"

"Crazy..."

As soon as Liao Yongquan finished speaking, a crackling sound rang out. It turned out that Xu Hongji and Liao Yongquan, who were sitting leisurely drinking tea, dropped the tea cup in their hands to the ground, and the other jumped up and overturned the Taishi chair behind them to the ground.

The first person to jump up was Liao Yongquan. In just a few seconds, his posture of scolding Zhou Xian with an airs disappeared without a trace, and his face turned pale in an instant. He trembled and said, "What, you... say it again!"

Zhou Xian might have run too fast, and even gasped for words, and there was a hint of crying in his voice: "Liao... Lord Liao, it's not good, that Yang Feng... Yang Feng came outside the city gate with his soldiers, saying that he wanted to get the silver to drive out!"

"Download silver?"

Liao Yongquan and Xu Hongji looked at each other and said in unison: "It's bad!"

These two people, one is the Minister of War and the other is the garrison of Nanjing. How can they not understand what the silver is? This is the money for the soldiers to work hard before going to war. Who would dare to greed for the last money for their life? Those big-headed soldiers who are timid and let them bully on weekdays will really be killed.

Liao Yongquan said in a trembling voice: "Zhou Xian, don't panic first. Tell me first how many people Yang Feng brought over?"

"I don't know." Zhou Xian's face turned pale, and his head was shaking like a rattle, "Xiaguan... Xiaguan Yike doesn't know, but Xiaguan sees their dense appearance, there must be at least a thousand people."

"More than a thousand people?"

Liao Yongquan, who was already scared, felt his legs were about to become weak, but he still plucked up the courage and said, "How is this possible? Didn't you say that the Jiangdongmen Thousand Households have collapsed, and only dozens of old, weak, sick and disabled soldiers are left to support the scene? Where did Yang Feng have so many soldiers?"

"Sir, it's true." Zhou Xiansheng was afraid that the adults would tell him that he was lying, so he said anxiously: "The Xiaguan saw Yang Feng training sergeant on the school ground of Qianhu Station in Jiangdongmen with his own eyes. It was dense, and there were definitely more than a thousand people!"

Liao Yongquan asked again stuttered: "Then...will they...rush into the city?"

"No." Zhou Xian shook his head quickly: "The Yang Feng led the army to the city gate and stopped moving forward. The city gate official saw that the situation was not good, and he had ordered the closing of all the city gates."

"That's good...this is good." When he heard this, Liao Yongquan's originally pale face finally improved a little. As long as the rioters who were making money did not enter the city, at least his life would be saved.

At this time, Xu Hongji didn't care about being angry anymore. He turned his face to Cao Dazhong, who was sitting aside and lowered his head to drink tea, and asked, "Eunuch Cao, how could there be so many soldiers in this Yang Feng? Where did he get so many people?"

At this time, Cao Dazhong was the most calm one. Looking at the pale-faced Liao Yongquan and Xu Hongji who pretended to be calm, he sneered in his heart. Didn’t you just grasp the wrong sentence of our family and then just kept saying in front of our family that Yang Feng must lead the troops to fight in person? Now, are you stunned?

Cao Dazhong picked up the tea cover and gently fiddled with the tea leaves in the tea cup and said lightly: "Mr. Xu, you are so strange. According to our family, according to the military system, the thousand households of Jiangdongmen are the guardian barriers of Nanjing City, and there should be 1,120 soldiers. Isn't it expected that Yang Feng has brought so many people here?"

"I'm not expecting it!" Xu Hongji's face looked extremely ugly, but he had already cursed in his heart. Ten people know what kind of life the military households are living now. When did Yang Feng make such a big noise?

Seeing Xu Hongji not speaking for a long time, Cao Dazhong didn't mind making up the fire for them. He smiled and said with a smug smile: "Mr. Xu, Lord Liao, as far as our family knows, when the imperial court dispatched a large army, he always had to make up for the soldiers' food and wages owed over the years and paid the military to pay the military to pay the military in advance. The Master Zhou also said just now that Yang Qianhu brought the soldiers to pay outside the city gate because the Ministry of War did not broadcast the military and the military to pay the military to pay the military to pay the military outside the city gate. If the emperor and all the masters of the cabinet knew about this, I'm afraid that both of them would not be able to explain it if they were investigated?"

Hearing this, Liao Yongquan and Xu Hongji couldn't help but feel regretful. One of them hated why they were so mean and issued an order in the name of the Ministry of War. Now, because the other party did not broadcast the silver, the army was dispatched to make a fortune. If this matter was a big deal, he, the Minister of War, would be the end.

Xu Hongji was different. He didn't feel regretful in his heart, but hated that Yang Feng had recruited so many troops on his back and caught him off guard. However, he unexpectedly expected the matter to come to this point. He only pondered for a while before saying to Cao Dazhong: "Eunuch Cao, it's useless to say more. I heard that Eunuch Cao had a good personal relationship with Yang Feng. At this time, I have to trouble Eunuch Cao to tell Yang Feng that he would return to the Thousand Houses Institute as soon as possible. Otherwise, it would be bad to make the court angry and call him a rebellion and send troops to suppress him."

Cao Dazhong stared at Xu Hongji with an idiot's eyes. Is this guy an idiot? Or did he think our family was in the first day of officialdom, but he actually used this trick of coaxing children to deceive our family.

Seeing Cao Dazhong's eyes, Xu Hongji also blushed, and finally he could only say helplessly: "Eunuch Cao, it's useless to say more. Let's go to the city gate and ask Yang Feng personally, let's see what they want to do?"
