Seeing Hu Diquan, who had just stood up, sit down again, he said softly: "Diquan, if you have any conflicts with General Zhang, you can tell me."
After waiting for a while, seeing that Hu Diquan still refused to speak, with an arrogant look on his face, he said with a smile: "You are worried that Fu is not at home and I can't make the decision for you. You can just say it. If there is anything wrong with General Zhang,
place, I will definitely teach him a lesson."
Hu Diquan saw that Tantai Heqing was favoring him, so he told the story of Zhang Shiyi's contempt for their grain transport soldiers in the military competition, and his dissatisfaction after losing to them. The two sides often fought in private.
.
Tantai Heqing smiled after hearing this: "You men, it's not common for veterans to bully new recruits. If you want to gain respect from others, you have to be strong-willed."
"I finished in third place. I only lost to those two perverted prince's soldiers. My fists were not strong enough. It was Zhang Shiyi who was narrow-minded, jealous of talent, and resented me for stealing his limelight."
"As far as I know, General Zhang is not this kind of person. I'm afraid there might be some misunderstanding between you. If not, I'll set up a banquet and mediate, so that you two can shake hands and make peace."
Hu Diquan said resolutely: "It's impossible, I will never eat at the same table with this guy!"
"Di Quan, you don't even give me face."
Hu Diquan was puzzled: "Miss, I have this temper. If the young master never forces me, what's more, if I just surrender like this, what will my brothers who have been bullied and ridiculed think of me?"
"Diquan, let me tell you straight, Zhang Shiyi is Fu's man."
Hu Diquan looked a little embarrassed: "He is him and I am me. The water in the river does not interfere with the water in the well. If I want to be a brother with him, there is no way!"
…
But it was said that Zhang Shiyi, led by Butler Kong and Xia Er, walked towards the hall and received the prize of the military competition. He could obviously wear the majestic Mingguang armor, but he deliberately dug out the old armor and put it on.
But he came here specifically to complain to Tantai Heqing and seek the welfare of his brothers.
After all, the dignified Zhe Chongfu army wore nothing better than a grain transport soldier, and the brothers were too embarrassed to go out.
When Lord Jiedushi comes back, they can also put on new equipment, but he can't wait any longer, and neither can the brothers. While this grain transporting force is still in Suzhou, they have to show off their power.
Butler Kong did not tell Hu Diquan that he was also in the hall. Zhang Shiyi walked into the hall. Because the sky was a little dark, he did not notice Hu Diquan sitting beside him. He stepped forward and bowed: "Zhang Shiyi, meet Madam."
"General Zhang, there is no need to be polite."
When Zhang Shiyi straightened up, Tantai Heqing saw that Zhang Shiyi came to see him in shabby clothes, and asked in confusion: "General Zhang, why are you dressed like this? Didn't you just lead your army to achieve excellent results in a military competition and get a lot of weapons?"
Armor?”
Zhang Shiyi sighed: "Mistress, how embarrassing."
This was not the first time that Zhang Shiyi had called her his mistress. When he wanted to express his feelings or ask for something, he would call her this unwritten way and said lightly: "General Zhang, please speak slowly."
"Shiyi does have a set of majestic Mingguang armor to wear, but the brothers are wearing shabby clothes. Shiyi can't bear it."
Tantai Heqing was puzzled: "You have awarded hundreds of pairs of armors, so all the soldiers can wear them."
"Mother, you don't know something. Shiyi's Zhechong Prefecture army has more than a thousand men. Currently, he is temporarily appointed as the Zhechong Commandery of Suzhou Zhechong Prefecture. There are also thousands of men. A few hundred officers are not enough."
Tantai Heqing asked: "General Zhang, what do you mean?"
"Mother, I'll tell you the truth. When Master Xie left, he told Shiyi to temporarily take over the post of Captain Zhechong of Suzhou Zhechong Prefecture. He just wanted Shiyi to absorb this army and make it his own."
"Mother, you have never led a soldier, so you don't know the hardships of leading a soldier. You have to treat your brothers well, and then they will be convinced by you and fight for you."
"Mother, you said that if the soldiers of our Changzhou Zhechong Prefecture Army were dressed brightly, but the Suzhou Zhechong Prefecture Army were dressed in shabby clothes, what would they think? It's natural for them to be alienated and resentful. What did Shiyi do before?
All the previous efforts have been wasted.”
"General Zhang, just say it straight."
"Master Xie has long promised to the general. After the military competition is over, he will secretly give the armor to the general. Now that Master Xie is not here, I ask my mistress to make the decision on my behalf."
"General Zhang, how much do you want?"
Zhang Shiyi saw Tantai He responded so readily, and responded loudly: "I still owe two thousand pairs, and the red armor cannot be less than two hundred pairs!"
Hearing this, Tantai Heqing stood up in shock. She only knew the value of this armor after raising money to buy weapons and equipment for Xie Fu.
Erqian Mate also frightened her, a big cloth merchant in the south of the Yangtze River. Before she could speak, Hu Diquan, who was sitting silently, became anxious: "Zhang Shiyi, you are so greedy!"
It was only then that Zhang Shiyi discovered that there were other people in the hall. He followed the call and saw that it was his old enemy who was dying. He shouted in surprise: "Hu Diquan, why are you here?"
Hu Diquan sneered: "Why can't I be here? If I weren't here, I wouldn't know that General Zhang has such a flattering and greedy side."
"Hu Diquan, you, a little grain transport officer, dare to talk to me like this."
"Zhang Shiyi, don't use your official rank to pressure me. If you are not convinced, let's have a fight now. Whoever loses will be the grandson. In the future, we will take a detour."
Zhang Shiyi had fought against Hu Diquan, so he naturally knew that this short winter melon was very brave. It was because of this short winter melon that this grain transporter could get third place. He would not be stupid enough to fight this short winter melon alone.
Turning to look at Tantai Heqing: "Mother, why is he here?" The word "mistress" was specially emphasized, but she wanted to let Hu Diquan know her identity.
Hu Diquan sneered: "Zhang Shiyi, are you the only mistress?"
Zhang Shiyi was puzzled and saw Hu Diquan bowing to Tantai Heqing: "Mother, this villain will not be as greedy as Zhang Shiyi. The villain will only relieve the mistress's worries and will never add any worries to her.
, if you raise him as a slave, you might as well just raise a villain."
Zhang Shiyi looked at Tantai Heqing in surprise. Tantai Heqing was also quite difficult to do. He smiled dryly and said: "Hu Diquan is an old member of my Tantai Mansion. He used to follow Fu and take care of Fu's food and daily life.
Fu’s…”
Hu Diquan took over: "Personal slave!"
Zhang Shiyi was shocked and angry: "Since you know that you are a slave, why don't you have the consciousness of a slave? This hall is also where you, a slave, stay!"
Hu Di, a gangster from all over the city, came over. He was originally a scoundrel. He smiled lightly and said, "You are a slave and can come. I have stepped on your head, so why can't you come?"
Zhang Shiyi is a fifth-grade Lieutenant, so how can he be insulted like this on weekdays: "Hu Diquan, I will leave my words here today. If you walk out of Tantai Mansion tonight..."
Seeing that Zhang Shiyi was about to say harsh words, Tantai Heqing shouted coldly: "Zhang Shiyi, shut up!"
This roar of the Hedong lion was quite intimidating, and with the roar, the hall became extremely silent.
Tantai He calmed down for a while, allowing the two of them to calm down, and then said coldly: "You two keep calling for mistress, do you take me as mistress seriously?"
Neither of them said a word.
Tantai Heqing said in a lighter tone: "Zhang Shiyi, do you still want the armor?"
Zhang Shiyi didn't answer, but Hu Diquan became anxious: "Miss!"
Tantai He said coldly: "Hu Diquan, if I ask you something, just interrupt!"
After Hu Diquan became honest, Tantai Heqing asked: "Let me ask you, do you still want the house?"
Hu Diquan said angrily: "Of course I want it, but if you want me to shake hands with this thing and make peace, then I won't want it."
Tantai Heqing sneered: "You can't tell, Hu Diquan, you have quite a bit of backbone, so let me ask you again, do you want a lady from a famous family?"
Hu Diquan immediately hesitated. This was his Achilles heel. If he could marry a noble lady, he would be considered a proud ancestor.
He gritted his teeth and made up his mind: "No!"
Tantai Heqing was surprised and looked at her with admiration, but he cursed: "You lecherous thing."
"Miss, the brothers have been wronged. As the boss, I cannot let the brothers look down upon me."
Tantai Heqing changed the subject: "You must be hungry."
The two of them did not respond, and Tantai He said loudly: "Steward Kong, go prepare a good banquet on the table and bring out the fine wine I have collected."
"If I host a banquet, you won't fail to give me, the mistress, face."
The two of them nodded bravely, but secretly thought that it would be better not to eat at this banquet.
The two hundred people brought by Zhang Shiyi are gathering at the gate of Tantai Mansion at the moment. These two hundred people are the oldest ones who follow Zhang Shiyi, and they can be regarded as Zhang Shiyi's confidants.
They were all wearing shabby armor at the moment, but they had already discussed it and prepared to perform a cruel trick in front of the Jiedushi's wife.
Seeing that Zhang Shiyi had been gone for a long time and no one had asked them to enter the house, a soldier couldn't help but asked: "Lieutenant General, General Zhang has been gone for so long, why is there no movement at all?"
The lieutenant general said: "Why are you anxious? Jieduzhi's wife is very powerful, and she is not as easy to talk to as Mr. Xie. We, General Zhang, can't do anything step by step."
As they were talking, suddenly there was a lot of movement in the streets to the left and right of the entrance of Tantai Mansion. They were all soldiers. When they heard the sound, they knew it was the footsteps of the army. They all stood up, and the originally scattered team became orderly.
.
Lieutenant General Lin Han asked: "Whose army?" After this military competition, they have basically dealt with all the armies in Suzhou City.
Soon a soldier found out the truth: "Vice General Lin is the two personal soldiers of His Highness the Crown Prince."
"Why did they come to Tantai Mansion? Could it be that His Highness the Crown Prince has returned to Suzhou?"
As soon as Qin Chuzhen arrived in Suzhou this afternoon, he took out the talisman and took over the prince's two bodyguards at the post house. He waited until dark before taking action, because by this time all the troops had returned to camp, and there was a certain time lag in the temporary mobilization.
, but he wanted to be quick and achieve success in one go.
Once Gu Xuan received the news and dispatched the Gu family's tiger guard, even if he had two of the most elite guards from Daguan Kingdom by his side, he would not be able to leave Suzhou City.
To move Tantai Mansion in Suzhou City is to pluck the beard from the face of a tiger!
Qin Chuzhen looked serious, and suddenly saw a group of people gathered at the door of Tantai Mansion. His expression was startled. Maybe the news had leaked, and Tantai Mansion had been on guard for a long time.
He immediately calmed himself down. It was impossible. It was extremely secret at this time. Only he and his father knew about it. Moreover, he came to Suzhou alone and did not reveal his identity along the way.
When he first arrived at the post house, he controlled two of the prince's personal soldiers and absolutely did not reveal the possibility of disappearing. And until now, he has not revealed the purpose of his trip to anyone.
Qin Chuzhen said in a deep voice: "Chief Guard Left, what's going on with the people in front?"
"Your Majesty, I'll go and ask and I'll find out."
"Go ahead."
The captain of the left guard stepped forward and asked loudly: "Whose troops are in front?"
Lieutenant General Lin Han came forward and said, "We are the army of General Zhang, the captain of Changzhou Chongdu."
They had dealt with each other in military competitions, so they knew each other. Captain Zuo looked at Lin Han, who was wearing shabby armor, and then looked at the two hundred or so other soldiers, who were roughly the same. He suddenly felt a little strange and asked: "Lieutenant General Lin,
What are you doing here with so many people gathered here?"
"General Zhang has come to pay a visit to the Jiedushi's wife. We are waiting outside the mansion. Chief of the left guard, what are your left and right guards doing here?"
The captain of the left guard didn't know what they were doing here, so he responded: "We are now following the orders of Prince Qi."
"Prince Qi?"
"The current sixth prince, Prince Qi."
The captain of the left guard returned and reported: "Your Majesty, this is the deployment of Zhang Shiyi, the captain of Changzhou Zhechong."
Qin Chuzhen asked: "How come Changzhou Zhechong's army is in Suzhou?"
"Captain Zhechong Zhang Shiyi is currently stationed in Suzhou, and he is also temporarily serving as the Commander-in-Chief of Zhechong in Suzhou."
"Where is the former Suzhou Captain Zhechong?"
"The former Suzhou Zhechong Captain Zhu Shaozhi was a member of the Zhu clan. He was beheaded by Lord Xie, the Jiedushi envoy, for his disobedience."

"I don't know about this subordinate, but it seems to be arranged by Lord Governor Lu."
…
After briefly asking a few questions, Qin Chuzhen knew that these two Zhechongfu troops had become Xie Fu's personal soldiers, and said in a deep voice: "Let them return to camp immediately and not stay outside."
The captain of the left guard walked towards Lin Han again: "Prince Qi has an order, ordering you to return to camp immediately and not to stay again!"
It was late at night. It is said that those who come are not good and those who are good will not come. Lin Han had already ordered his subordinates to go into the house and notify General Zhang. He said with a smile: "Chief Zuo Guard, this is not possible. My general is still in the house. Recently, General Zhang
He has made many enemies, and we dare not leave him alone."
The captain of the left guard said coldly: "Didn't you hear what I just said? Prince Qi has an order, don't you think you can disobey it?"
Lin Han smiled and said: "We are the Zhechong Prefecture Army. Naturally, we follow the orders of General Zhang, the captain of Zhechong. How can we disobey orders?"
Qin Chuzhen heard the conversation between the two, but he didn't want to drag it out. He had a long night and many dreams, so he stepped forward and said to Lin Han: "I will say it again, you will return to camp immediately, and any offenders will be punished immediately!"
Lin Han was startled, but he was also frightened. He came here amidst the hail of bullets and arrows. The King of Qi was the King of Qi in Chang'an, and the envoy of Huainan Road had the final say in Suzhou City.
He smiled apologetically and said: "Your Majesty, we are not under your jurisdiction. What are your intentions in arranging local troops without authorization? I'm sorry that you can't obey your orders!"
Lin Han was very courageous to dare to criticize the prince, but he also knew who was his long-term bread and butter parent. This prince had lived in Chang'an for a long time. Even if he had a distinguished status, his visit to Suzhou was just a formality, and he would never have any contact with him from now on.
.
I would rather contradict the prince than poach my immediate boss.
After all the dealings, Captain Zuo knew that this was no child's play, so he persuaded him nicely: "Lin Han, you go back to the camp quickly, and I will personally escort General Zhang back later."
Qin Chuzhen said in a deep voice: "Chief of the Left Guard, kill this man!"
