Chapter five hundred and fourteenth light and darkness
Xu Xun, Miao Kui and Chen Xiong brought most of the troops and horses. For a time, only Zhang Yong, Cao Mi and twenty or thirty servants were left in the imperial temple in Ningxia City. In addition, those who were left behind because of inconvenience on riding horses
The fat Wang Jinglue here suddenly seemed deserted. Even so, early in the morning, there were still guards who noticed that someone seemed to be watching outside, and immediately reported to Zhang Yong.
Zhang Yong just raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and then said with a smile: "Xu Xun must have taken away the troops that night. Now the six gates of Ningxia City are closed tightly. These people don't know the movements of the troops, so they can't help but get their idea."
On my head."
Wang Jinglue looked around and found that there was no one left except himself. He couldn't help but feel very awkward sitting on one side. However, what he didn't expect was that Eunuch Zhang Yong suddenly looked at him.
come over.
"Fat Wang, although you are not from Ningxia Town, you are still from Shaanxi. Do you have any acquaintances in Ningxia Town?"
"Well... I have been guarding the Shenmu Fort for many years. There are many people from the Ningxia Town General Military Office walking around. I barely recognize a few of them, but I can't say they are familiar with them." Wang Jinglue answered cautiously, and then tried to test it.
Then he asked, "Eunuch Zhang, what do you want to ask this humble official to do?"
"Well, it's good since someone recognizes you." Zhang Yong waved and called Wang Jinglue over, slapped him hard on his fat belly, and then said with a half-smile, "Our family heard that
, your mother-in-law has been dead for many years, and she has never renewed her relationship. As a result, you left all the boys and girls in the family in Xi'an Mansion?"
Zhang Yong found out about the family affairs of an insignificant official like himself. Wang Jinglue felt more and more weird about this matter, but he had to apologize and nodded and said: "Yes, the humble wife died early, and the humble man himself has military affairs.
He didn't have time to take care of his children, and the Shenmu Fort was on the front line facing the bandits. If something went wrong, he would be sorry for the Wang family's ancestors and his dead mother-in-law, so he left them in Xi'an Mansion.
The old mother is taking care of it. As for the continuation of the relationship, the salary from the humble position, and such a fat figure, no one can take care of it... at most... at most, he can just find a random woman to get rid of..."
Seeing that Wang Jinglue said it honestly, Zhang Yong had already learned from the guards who had followed Wang Jinglue and Cao Qian that one time when the fat man was drunk, because others laughed at him for being fat, he immediately yelled that he was in a brothel.
Chu Guan is very popular with women, and women all like him for his good figure. Although he has not witnessed this, he doesn't mind giving him a push.
Zhang Yong smiled slightly and raised his fingers to signal Wang Jing to come closer. Seeing that the fat man moved his body carefully, trying his best to remain respectful but distant, he said slowly: "In that case, our family will give you a beautiful blessing.
.Except for Xiao Cao who was sent out early, no one here has been out in the past two days. Some people outside must be going crazy with anxiety. So, now you leave here and go to Xingwu Camp to meet Mr. Yang. However, since
After working like this in the wind and rain for more than half a month, it’s time to go to Songwo Songwo. You should know where the famous Flower Street and Willow Alley in Ningxia City is, so you can go there and have some fun!”
"ah?"
Wang Jinglue thought that he would be given another difficult task just like last time, but he didn't expect that he would be sent to a brothel. He almost stared out of his eyes. Before he could speak, he saw
Zhang Yong's hand flashed, and two honeycomb silver ingots were stuffed over him.
"These fifty taels should be enough for you to enjoy yourself in those flower streets and willow lanes for a day or two. Our family has no other requirements. You are not allowed to come out until tomorrow morning!" Seeing Wang Jinglue suddenly stunned, Zhang Yong took the picture again with a smile.
Patting him on the shoulder, "If someone from your old days comes to look for you, remember to be generous and ask them to have fun together. If anyone asks where Uncle Pingbei and his party have gone..."...
.
"In a humble position, you must say you don't know!"
Zhang Yong shook his head angrily and said: "No, just tell them that Uncle Pingbei probably led his troops to Zhenyuan Pass. From there, we can cross the river and cut straight into the hinterland of the bandits. Just like Taifu Wang did back then.
Their old, weak, women and children, even if they can plunder and plunder Ningxia this time, it will be unsustainable after all! Do you remember them all?"
Wang Jinglue was fat, but his brain was still flexible. At this moment, he finally fully understood Zhang Yong's intention. He nodded hurriedly and repeated Zhang Yong's words exactly. When he left the Guandi Temple with two ingots of silver,
, he glanced around, but his heart couldn't help but become lively.
Fifty taels of silver may seem like a lot, but in the best private house, if any old acquaintance really comes to see him, he will have to pay off the bills for them, and in the blink of an eye, there won't be much left. But.
If you choose an affordable place, at least half of it will fall into your pocket in one day. You will be popular and make a fortune at the same time, which is exactly what kills two birds with one stone. After all, Eunuch Zhang has no restrictions on which famous restaurant he wants to go to.
Louzi, and these Beijing people have a lot of money, so they probably won't ask him for the remaining money.
Thinking of this, Wang Jinglue looked around for a while, and suddenly he hummed a tune happily and looked in a certain direction. Behind him, a figure immediately followed him closely until he followed him through the streets and alleys and turned into a small alley.
Inside, the figure waited outside for a long time, then slipped into the alley and stopped in front of a small courtyard with a mottled door panel and paint peeling off. Then he raised his head and looked at the signboard above carefully.
When the news was sent to the Anhua Prince's Mansion, Anhua Prince Zhu Xun frowned instinctively: "Yingchun Tower... the name sounds like a private nest. Inside the Lou Chu Pavilion in Ningxia City, there are
This place?”
"Wang Jinglue is from a small family, and I heard he is a stingy man. Even if he gets rewarded, it is not surprising that he would go to such a small place to have fun. Your Highness, don't worry, I have already ordered to get to know him.
Several people went there to inquire. He is a fat guy who has never seen the world, so he should be able to figure it out."
"That's good."
When he thought that all the elite guards among the guards of King Qing were transferred, and it was not known whether Xu Xun would be able to borrow or repay, Zhu felt that his heart was bleeding. He sat there gnashing his teeth for a long time, and he remembered that he had gone there the day before yesterday.
When he saw Qing Wang Zhu Tai, his nephew who had always obeyed him, this time he was talking about him. He didn't explain how Xu Xun borrowed the person. He was so angry that he was half-dead and immediately pinched
Clenched his fists.
If he were Prince Qing, the only guard of Prince Qing that he held in his hand would not be easily lent to others!
"Your Highness, Your Highness!"
Zhu raised his head and saw Sun Jingwen running in like a gust of wind. He immediately narrowed his eyes and asked, "What, did you get some news?"
"No, it's Wang Ning who was sent to see Li Zeng and Deng Guang by Liu Gonggong, the Superintendent of Ceremonies of the Central Government. He went to see An Weixue, the censor. I finally got the news from the censor's house, and he said...
Wang Ning came here specifically to farm in Ningxia. Eunuch Liu didn't know where he heard that the land in the Hetao was extremely fertile, so he asked for the Holy Will to let the military households in the three towns of Shaanxi cultivate acres of land outside the border wall.
It is used for military purposes. In addition to military use, there is no need to waste money on the people and transfer it from other places. You can also give money and food to the capital every year!"
Is Liu Jin crazy, or is Wang Ning pretending to spread the holy will?
Zhu almost thought he had something wrong with his ears. It wasn't until Sun Jingwen confirmed that the source of the information was extremely reliable that he suddenly stood up, took a deep breath and said: "Keep an eye on the Yushifu, as long as this matter is true.
Once you settle down, come and repay me immediately!”….
Although Zhang Yong didn't bother sending anyone to keep an eye on Wang Jinglue at all, he was extremely sure that someone who couldn't get a breakthrough from Guandi Temple would definitely try to start with Wang Jinglue. So, he took a nap leisurely.
·When he woke up, it was almost Shenshi. After getting dressed under the service of Xiao Huo Zhe, he suddenly saw two letters on his desk.
One of the letters was signed with the character Xu, while the other one was also signed with the character Xu, but the wax seal was the seal of Xing'an Bo Mansion. Recognizing this difference, he immediately changed his expression and went up to pick up the two letters.
He held it in his hand and asked sharply: "When was it delivered?"
"Reporting to father-in-law, it was about half an hour ago." The little fireman replied. Seeing Zhang Yong's face turned pale, he immediately knelt down with his knees weak and stammered, "Little... little
I just want you to have a good rest since you came out. I want... I want you to sleep peacefully... take a nap!"
"Damn it, if you miss something big, our family will have to skin you!"
Zhang Yong cursed bitterly, and then he didn't bother to get dressed. He just took the two letters and sat down on the bedside, and opened Xu Xun's letter first. After seeing those few lines of words clearly, he was momentarily moved.
His brows were furrowed. He originally asked Wang Jinglue to leave the news just in case, but looking at what happened to Xu Xun, the conspiracy of Anhua Wang Zhu was already obvious. Otherwise, a thousand households in Dingguang District,
How could he be so bold? Thinking that Commander-in-Chief Jiang Han had deployed troops and generals to defend along the river in the past few days, and that the troops and horses in the city had been mobilized repeatedly, he was already quite nervous. He couldn't help but take a breath, and now he really understood Xu Xun and
The reason why Yang Yiqing wants to second the guards from King Qing.
After all, there are more than 3,000 guards in King Qing. After transferring more than 1,000 of the most elite ones, there are still a lot of people left. But if Anhua King Zhu really has a treacherous plot, if he wants to deal with it again, he must be simple.
More!
"No wonder you and Yang Suian are paired together. You are so happy to stay with us to take charge of Ningxia. How dare you leave such the most troublesome thing behind... Well, the soldiers will come to cover up the water and the soil.
After a hundred battles on the battlefield, you can become a marquis, and our family will help you settle the backyard... But should we exterminate it first, or should we wait and see what happens next?"
Zhang Yong murmured to himself, then put Xu Xun's letter back into the envelope, but hid it close to his body, and then tore open another letter. However, after opening it and taking a look, his solemn expression
His expression turned into one of astonishment, followed by laughter. The little fireman who was kneeling on the ground didn't understand what was going on with Zhang Yong's ups and downs, so he quietly raised his head.
He took a sneak peek.
"Come on, Xu Xun is not here, so our family must make a gift for him! Find a knowledgeable woman, go to the market and buy thirty or fifty kilograms of eggs, boil them and make them into wedding eggs to distribute to everyone."
The little fireman was still a little dazed, so Zhang Yong said with a smile, "If anyone asks, just say that Uncle Pingbei is happy with your daughter, so we all congratulate you!"
Hearing this, the little fireman suddenly realized, and after agreeing repeatedly, he rushed out of the door. Zhang Yong lowered his head and glanced at the concise words on the letter again, thinking to himself that Xu Liang was really experienced.
I knew that this letter might not be delivered directly to Xu Xun, so I only said something about the safety of mother and daughter, and nothing else. However, I expected that the little emperor would not be allowed to personally
It is possible to be present.
"Xu Xun, Xu Xun, you are a father, please take it easy!".
