Cheng Dabeard took office not long ago and has not come into contact with many people.
Of the four treasurers, they only saw two. The other one was said to have gone to Shandong and would not be able to come back until at least a month later.
Especially since this is the time when the East China Sea Army is reorganizing, the treasurer may come back later. Precisely because of the reorganizing of the army, the Ministry of War is very busy this year.
After taking office, Cheng Dashu got familiar with his duties, and then handed over all the literary work to the two secretaries around him. Anyway, Wang Langzhong was in charge of the most relaxed affairs in the Ministry of War.
Zhang Liang, the Minister of War above, was like Wang Jing's father, helping him keep an eye on every move of his subordinates. It is said that Wang Langzhong found two concubines for Zhang Shilang, so he received such preferential treatment.
Not only did Zhang Liang and Cheng Dabeard recognize him, they even had drinks with him back then.
Zhang Benchu was from Henan, and he was not from Shandong like them. He became aroused after he joined Li Mi. Li Mi trusted this guy very much and asked him to supervise everyone's words and deeds. Zhang Liang, who was originally an honest farmer, became increasingly fierce in his methods.
At that time, people like Cheng Dabeard were wary of Zhang Liang. If there was a chance to do something dirty, Zhang Liang would definitely not be alive today.
Later, Zhang Liang followed Xu Shiji and defected to Li Yuan. After being defeated in Jin, he defected to the King of Han and became a lackey of the King of Han.
Now he is the minister of the Ministry of War and has become Cheng Dabeard's immediate boss. It does mean that the world has changed and things have changed.
Cheng Dabeard didn't even think about trying to get close to him. Zhang Liang himself was very shady, and he didn't have any friendship with Cheng Dabeard. If he got close to him rashly, something might happen.
Moreover, Zhang Liang was on good terms with Xu Shiji, and Xu Shiji was even more difficult to mess with. He was full of evil intentions. He was one of the people who secretly made friends with Li Mi and encouraged Li Mi to kill Zhai Rang.
Later, many Wagang brothers died in his hands, especially Shan Xiongxin. It was said that he hid in the mountains. In the middle of the winter, Xu Shiji found him and cut off his head.
I don’t know what kind of grudge they had forged when they were on the mountain, but it has reached such a point where they will never stop fighting. How could he deliberately get in front of Xu Maogong and Zhang Liang before it was too late for him to hide?
…………
The Ministry of War is the most murderous among the six bureaus. Unlike later, most of the people who serve in the Ministry of War are military men with military exploits. If you are a scholar, don't think about relying on it or being a sage or sage.
Words can overwhelm people.
Wei Chixin, Minister of the Ministry of War, had served as a general.
Among the ministers of the Ministry of War, except Tang Jian, all of them had led troops, and the others were generals in the army. Tang Jian was also familiar with military books and was known as a knowledgeable soldier in the court.
…………
Cheng Dabeard thought about it all the way, but he had no clue.
The main reason is that he went to the Ministry of War for a short period of time and could not make friends with many people. As time went by, his advantages came into play and he probably wouldn't have to worry so much.
When Mrs. Sun returned home, she saw that her daughter had not come back and her husband looked bruised and swollen.
Uncle Luo was dissatisfied and beat his husband again. He was so cruel that it looked like he was beaten into a bad state and had to be raised for many days.
Seeing that his wife wanted to ask but didn't dare to ask, Cheng Dabeard explained the matter roughly in an upset manner. Sun's face changed, but in the end he couldn't help but laugh.
It makes Lao Cheng's stomach swell with anger. I've been beaten like this, but you don't even know how to care about me, and you still laugh. Can you still want this bitch?
Mrs. Sun didn't care about this. She returned to the back house and placed Lao Cheng on the cave. She kneaded his injured area and applied some herbs. These were things that were always available at home and were originally intended for his two sons to practice martial arts.
, I didn’t expect that most of them were used on Lao Cheng.
While rubbing the bruises away from her husband, she asked, "Do you think Uncle Luo thinks this can be done? Should I go over there to see my daughter tomorrow and talk to his Aunt Wang on the way?"
Cheng Dabeard grinned in pain, but said: "Don't stir up trouble. Luo San can't make the decision at first glance, so don't expect too much. Both of them are thinking about asking the emperor to grant a marriage.
The emperor has always looked at me with displeasure, and when the time came he just shook his head, "This marriage will definitely not happen. You don't know that the emperor's mind is very small. He can clearly remember things from many years ago. It takes a lot of effort to settle old accounts."
Life."
Now that Mrs. Sun knew the relationship between her husband and the emperor, she couldn't help complaining: "You should stop saying bad things about the emperor. This means that it will only be spread within the family.
You often drink outside, and if you drink too much and start talking smoothly, won't you cause trouble again?"
Cheng Dabeard snorted, "Let me tell you, how dare you do this outside? When we were in Luoyang, do you think I dared to speak ill of Wang Shichong?"
Mrs. Sun was a serious person and slapped her husband, "Don't take Wang Shichong as an example. He is a thick-faced, evil-hearted and unjust person. No one dares to accuse him of his scandals because they are afraid of destroying his family."
The current emperor is a man who cherishes old friendships. Otherwise, how could our family be alive until now? There is no comparison."
Cheng Zhijie was silent. The emperor was not like Wang Shichong who killed people frequently, but he had many tricks. He had been sent around in recent years, so he might as well give him a quick blow.
I can't explain this to my wife. That man is so good at pretending, and people outside praise him for loving the people like a son. I am afraid that only those who have experienced his methods will always remember not to offend him.
"You should also be prepared. Luo Sanlang can meet you at any time. There will be news about this matter soon. If it happens, we can marry our daughter in a glorious way.
No, it's expected. Let's find another family. Don't worry, I'm working in the Ministry of War now, and there are many good families there. I can always find a good husband for my aunt."
Mrs. Sun responded in a muffled voice, "By the way, the man named Ma sent someone here again. Seeing that you were not here, he asked me to send you a message, saying that you should handle the matters entrusted to you more urgently. There may be something happening recently.
of.
What did you promise to others? You kept asking people to come to your door to talk to you. Let me tell you, you finally don’t have to travel far away. The Ministry of War is an important place. Don’t make any random promises to people. Don’t cause any trouble.
Come."
Cheng Dabeard's heart twitched. He knew that this was due to the approaching Beijing Examination of Science and Technology. What those people were pursuing was the leak of test questions from the last Beijing Examination.
It was Ma Sanbao who tracked down the Ministry of War, so he was assigned to serve in the Ministry of War.
Thinking of this, Cheng Dashu cursed in his heart, how could he get a higher score with a bruised nose and a swollen face? You can't tell people that you fell by yourself, right? How hard did you have to fall to end up like this?
He originally wanted to rest at home for two days and think about what to do, but now he can only go to the Ministry of War and be laughed at. His face has fallen to the ground. Can he pick it up again in the future?
