Chapter 91 You speak lightly when you touch your lips, but I am very happy
Chapter 91 You can speak lightly, but it’s hard for me to help you.
Wang Ziteng was not visiting as an official, but as a relative.
In this case, a family banquet will be held, and the female family members of the house can also attend.
When Li Yunze, who was walking like a dragon and a tiger, walked in with Xue Pan, who held his head high and his chest high, the banquet hall that had been lively and noisy before suddenly became quiet.
At first glance, Li Yunze looked at Wang Ziteng, who was first on his right.
This Jingying Jiedu envoy has a dignified appearance and is not angry or imposing. Sitting there, he looks very imposing.
As soon as she saw Li Yunze, Jia Mu would habitually get a headache.
Over there, Aunt Xue saw Xue Pan, who was looking around, and shouted with tears in her eyes, "My son~~~"
Xue Pan scratched his head and glanced at Li Yunze in front of him, but he didn't dare to respond.
Her brother, who was the governor of the Beijing camp, was sitting opposite, and Mrs. Wang's confidence immediately increased.
He glanced at Li Yunze and said in a nonchalant manner, "Can you be so rude to your uncle's face and your superior's face?"
Yu privately followed Wang Xifeng to call him uncle, and Yu Gongzi Teng was the military governor of the capital camp, a standard Shangguan in charge. Now Lian Er would not be able to get up and down.
Li Yunze, who ignored her at all, walked up to Wang Ziteng and clasped his fists, "The people in the house lack discipline, which makes Jiedu laugh."
Mrs. Wang's face turned pale with anger and her hands were shaking. She dared to say that she lacked discipline.
Unexpectedly, Wang Ziteng laughed loudly and stood up to return the greeting, "Every family has its own sutras that are difficult to recite, so there is no need to worry about it."
There are so many people here, but Li Yunze and Wang Ziteng are the only ones who understand.
They both knew very well that Wang Ziteng said he was the military commander of the Beijing camp, but in fact he could not mobilize the soldiers and horses of the Beijing camp and was just a mere commander.
Li Yunze was said to be one level below him, but he was actually a regimental and battalion general, a general with real power in charge of a battalion of soldiers and horses.
Taking into account the Jia family's influence in Beijing, Wang Ziteng's status is actually not as good as Li Yunze's.
He came here this time actually to ask Li Yunze for help with something. "This is a family dinner, there is no need to do it in such a formal manner."
"Okay, okay." Li Yunze also faked a smile and exchanged greetings with each other.
Mrs. Wang, who was very out of touch before, immediately turned off the fire.
Aunt Xue, who originally wanted to file a complaint, was even more dumbfounded.
Why is my brother so unreliable?
Li Yunze turned around and walked to the first place on the left, looking condescendingly at Jia Zheng and his wife, "Second uncle, you go and sit on the side. Jiedu and I want to talk about something."
Mrs. Wang was so angry that she even asked herself to move her seat!
Before she could get angry, Jia Zheng stood up and nodded repeatedly, "I'm supposed to be sitting here, but he didn't come back from leaving. It's just the right time for you to come."
The grieving Mrs. Wang was dragged to the next door by Jia Zheng. The people sitting behind naturally changed their positions one by one, and naturally there was another chaos.
Sitting at the top, Jia Mu raised her hand to cover her forehead. She felt that she needed to drink soup to die.
Wang Xifeng, who was happily greeted, came over and sat down. Li Yunze, who was sitting in the first place on the left, did his best to raise his wine glass to Wang Ziteng opposite, "Jiedu, have a drink."
The very dignified Wang Ziteng was always smiling. After drinking, he talked with Li Yunze about many interesting things in the court.
It was only then that smart people gradually understood that this was the real head of the family who could talk freely with others.
Sister Lin, for example, looked around, especially at Mrs. Wang's pale face, with quick eyes and a secret smile covering her mouth.
And those who are confused are still confused.
Like Jia Baoyu, who pouted and was filled with depression.
Before, everyone's conversation revolved around him, but as soon as the bully came over, he stole his limelight.
Seeing Li Yunze, who was also a playboy in the past, chatting and laughing with his father, he seemed to have become a big shot.
Looking at the bullied aunt, Wang Ren, Wang Ziteng's son, chose an opportunity to interject, "Brother-in-law, I heard that you bullied the elders in the Jia family and robbed your nephew of his title and mansion. Don't you think it's embarrassing?"
The banquet hall, which was gradually becoming lively, suddenly fell silent.
'Bah.' Li Yunze spit out a piece of fish bone and didn't look at him at all. Instead, he stared at Wang Ziteng, "Jiedu, it seems that the tutoring in the palace still needs to be strengthened."
Wang Ren was furious, and just when he was about to get angry, he felt the majestic eyes falling on him.
He subconsciously looked over and met his father's angry eyes.
In an instant, Wang Ren shrank his head in fear.
"Brother Lian made me laugh." Wang Ziteng looked away and laughed, "When you return home, you will be disciplined strictly."
"Children are ignorant, just give them dozens of whips casually, and they can stay out of bed for three days." Li Yunze didn't waste any time. He took the handkerchief handed over by Wang Xifeng and wiped his hands. "Jiedu, we don't have much to eat here."
Have a good time, how about going to the study to have some tea?"
"I think so too."
Seeing Li Yunze and Wang Ziteng leaving side by side, everyone here had different expressions.
Jia Baoyu muttered something like "pretending" and so on.
But Sister Lin saw clearly, "The Jia family finally has a pillar again."
As soon as Li Yunze left, Jia Mu's headache immediately disappeared.
Jia Mu, who had regained her energy and dignity, immediately invited the Wang family to have a drink and have fun, and the atmosphere of the banquet quickly picked up.
When it comes to having fun, livening up the atmosphere, etc., these guys are professionals.
When I came to the study, a servant served me tea.
When the boy retreated and closed the door, and the soldiers outside sealed off the study, the two people sitting opposite each other picked up the tea bowls, and then the main course of Wang Ziteng's visit today was actually served.
Jia Mu and the others thought that Wang Ziteng and his family and children came here just to have dinner and drinks.
Thinking about eating well, drinking well, entertaining well, and so on will give you face.
It’s hard to think about it, as a military governor, how can I miss your family’s meal?
"Brother Lian." Prince Teng, who had a sip of tea, got straight to the point, "Meng Long live summoned me a few days ago and asked him about sending troops to the southeastern coast."
"How to say?"
"Long Live has made up his mind." Wang Ziteng looked serious. "Taking advantage of your opportunity to pacify the southwestern chieftains and boost the people's morale, send out soldiers and horses from the capital to pacify the southeastern ghosts."
"Where do the money and food come from?" Li Yunze asked calmly, "How many troops will be sent? Are the Zhujing camps willing to send troops? Who will be the commander-in-chief?"
Wang Ziteng nodded secretly. This is the only person who knows what he is doing. He asked all the key points.
"Don't count on it. Long live the internal funds of 200,000 taels, and the internal government will provide 50,000 troops with three months of food and grass. All the regiments and camps in the Beijing camp are interested, but they can only contribute five battalions of soldiers and horses at most. As for the commander-in-chief."
Having said this, Wang Ziteng stroked his beard and said, "Long live my order, I will ask for envoys from the Southeast Coast Patrol Governor."
The ghosts that harass the islands on the southeast coast all come by boat.
All of them have demon-like faces and colorful hair, and they are called bangui.
If you go to fight them, you will inevitably end up in the sea.
"Brother Lian, what do you think?"
Wang Ziteng definitely wanted to go to war. After all, if he had merit in battle and was knighted, he would be a prince and uncle. If he had no merit in battle, he would be a first-, second- and third-class general.
With military merit, there will naturally be opportunities for promotion.
His purpose in coming to Li Yunze was very simple, that is, to win his support.
The Jingying Jiedushi who cannot mobilize troops and horses is of no use.
He was interested in the soldiers and horses in Li Yunze's hands.
"Two hundred thousand taels of silver? The five battalions of soldiers and horses are divided into three or four taels each. They are sent to the beggars."
"Three months of food and grass? In addition to the losses along the way and the consumption of civilians, this food and grass is not enough to reach the southeast."
"As for the soldiers and horses of the Beijing camp." When he said this, Li Yunze sneered without concealing, "Jiedu, you have been the military envoy of the Beijing camp for a long time. Don't say you don't know what the nobles of the Beijing camp think.
"
Of course Wang Ziteng knew that the nobles controlled the capital camp as the capital to settle down and live, so how could they easily obey orders and use it.
"But many honorable men have said that they are willing to go out with the army."
"Who said that? Did the commander of the 12th Regiment speak to you?" Wang Ziteng was stunned by the question.
If you think about it carefully, the nobles have been clamoring to send troops to the southeast recently, but the generals who really hold the military power have not spoken out.
"It's just some dudes who don't look down on the meritorious service of others." Li Yunze had already understood. "These days, nobles and nobles are coming to visit one after another, just asking for a place to take their children to gilding when they send troops."
In the end, in the end, the only ones who can really send troops are my battalion."
Li Yunze stopped chatting and came closer. He looked at the dazed Wang Ziteng sincerely, "Jiedu, I only have one battalion to send troops, why do I need to find a superior officer for my head?"
Wang Ziteng smiled bitterly, thinking that he had been tricked by the emperor.
The emperor didn't want to trick him, he just wanted to use him to suppress Li Yunze. If he really won the battle, the main credit could be attributed to his name, Wang Ziteng.
The emperor would never allow the Jia family to regain the power of the hereditary Jingying Jiedushi.
Obviously, Li Yunze has already seen through this.
Wang Ziteng was still unwilling to give in. "My dear nephew, how about you help me?"
He really wants to achieve military success so that he can take further steps.
"Haha~~~"
Li Yunze leaned back on the chair and looked at Wang Ziteng with an incomprehensible expression, "Jiedu, you speak lightly with your lips, but it's hard for me to help you."
This is what some have talked about.
Prince Teng was overjoyed and immediately said, "My dear nephew, just ask if you have any requests."
If you can do it, you will definitely do it, and if you can't do it, you must find a way to do it!
In his opinion, Li Yunze only wants money at most.
"It's not impossible to share the credit." These words made Wang Ziteng smile. "But you can't go out with the army. You can stay in Shenjing City and get the credit for strategizing."
Although I feel unwilling to do so, it is better than nothing.
Seeing Li Yunze's resolute attitude, Wang Ziteng could only grit his teeth and comply.
But then, the conditions proposed by Li Yunze made him stunned.
"I want to accept Xue Baochai, so I'll leave it to Jiedu."
After looking at Li Yunze blankly for a while, Wang Ziteng slowly said, "My dear nephew, you are already married."
"I know, so I accept it."
Wang Ziteng stood up suddenly and glared at Li Yunze. After a while, he slowly sat down.
"This matter."
"If this is successful, then Jiedu will benefit from his strategizing efforts. If this is not successful, then there will be nothing."
It was Li Yunze's turn to stand up, "It only takes two months to send out troops, so we must think carefully about the situation."
Li Yunze is not good at such things as chasing girls and pursuing romantic relationships.
But if he wanted to take care of the Jinchai people, he could only take a roundabout way.
Wang Ziteng will definitely agree. Compared with his own future, whether his niece marries well or not is irrelevant.
Li Yunze left the study and went to call Wang Xifeng back home.
But they saw Aunt Xue and her daughter talking to Xue Pan in the verandah.
Xue Baochai, who was wearing a goose-yellow horse-faced skirt and holding a fan in her hand, felt the gaze and turned her head to meet Li Yunze's eyes.
Recalling the past in Jinling City, the pretty and crimson-faced Xue Baochai slowly looked away.
The steps on her hair are very steady, she is a real lady.
Those people in movies and TV shows who sway when walking simply don't understand what the swaying is for.
Xue Pan, who was looking impatient, saw Li Yunze approaching and hurriedly saluted, "General."
Seeing her son, whom no one could control in the past, being taught to be so obedient, Aunt Xue didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"Auntie and Miss Xue came all the way to find you. This is a family bond." Li Yunze told the vicious dog in a friendly manner, "Don't make mistakes."
"Take orders."
He turned to look at Aunt Xue who was in a daze, "It's a blessing for Jia's family that Auntie is here as a guest. If you need anything, just ask."
Facing such a kind Li Yunze, Aunt Xue doubted whether he was the same person he met in Jinling City.
Before Aunt Xue could speak, Li Yunze was already looking closely at Xue Baochai, who was hanging his head.
"Sister of the Xue family." Li Yunze's voice was very soft. "Now that you are here, please stay in peace. Stay here and live well. I will take good care of your family in the future."
