Wulin Chinese Network ., the fastest update of the latest chapter of Eryu I marry!
Sheng Weiqiao, who was far away in the western Xinjiang, didn't know that because of his speculation, there was an uproar in the hearts of his grandfather and father.
She exchanged a few words with Ni Yanying amicably, and sent it to Xuan Yu Feng.
After Xuan Yu Feng and Ni Yanying greeted each other for most of the day, he said that he wanted to leave this righteous girl to live in the Assassin's Mansion.
Although Sheng Weiqiao didn't have much trust in this cousin who suddenly appeared, but her aunt thought that she was sure, so she followed, and when she heard the words, she asked someone to clean up a separate small courtyard next to Xuanyu Feng's place and dialed the two maids to serve her.
This matter was done by Ju Li, and when she came back, she told Sheng Weiqiao that Ni Yanying rewarded her with a silver hairpin.
Sheng Weiqiao glanced at it and saw that it was a very ordinary lotus inlaid pearl silver hairpin, the pearl was about the size of a soybean, not very neat and smooth, it was the identity of the chrysanthemum fence that could be worn, so he said: "If she rewards you, you can take it." ”
Then he asked, "What is the matter?" and what do you think of this young lady?"
Ju Li shook his head and said, "Miss Biao is very considerate in front of Old Madam Feng, but she doesn't like to talk in private. ”
"It looks like a person who has been squeezed at home and can only ask for help from his father's political enemies. Sheng Weiqiao commented, if Ni Yanying was exquisite immediately after entering the door, she would definitely not be able to rest assured, because it reminded her of Huan Yehe.
And although the county lord of Jingshu in Chang'an is a recognized celebrity and has good popularity, in Sheng Weiqiao's opinion, the county lord is really not a good person.
But although Ni Yanying didn't seem to have any problem at this time, Sheng Weiqiao still said, "Keep an eye on her, but don't let her find out." ”
When she was busy with chores in the backyard here, Rong Sleeping Crane in the front hall was not idle.
Part of the reason why he can't be idle is because of the assassin Shi of Yizhou, who has the same hobby as Emperor Xuanjing in the palace. is different from Emperor Xuanjing, when Emperor Xuanjing saw the Shu sisters, there was no one else in his eyes, and the former assassin Shi was very affectionate, almost as long as it was a young and beautiful woman, he would not refuse.
So in this western Xinjiang, where my father doesn't love my mother and doesn't love me, my predecessor is like a fish in water...... is so good that when his term of office expired and Rong Sleeping Crane had not yet arrived, he would rather watch plays and listen to small songs all day than continue to watch things, and he had a large backlog of official affairs to be disposed of.
Although Rong Sleepy Crane saw these at the time of the handover, he didn't bother to break with him, because the assassin was a bastard at first glance, an old man in the eunuch field, and with this kind of long-winded kung fu, it was better to roll up his sleeves and end the matter by himself.
However, the advantage of the leader of the Wuyi battalion has never been so easy to take advantage of, when Sheng Weiqiao wanted to suppress this "brother" and was still cleaned up, he couldn't find the north, let alone the lustful and mediocre predecessor Assassin Shi.
On the way to Jiannan to take up his post, before he left the western frontier, he was "bandits", not only his head was cut off, but a stack of silver tickets accumulated over the years was also gone!
The local officials were sweating all over their heads after knowing their identity, and it was already very pitty to have such a bad case under their rule, and they were actually the former old parents, this is no longer a question of whether the black yarn on their heads can be saved, this is a question of whether they want to go to the prison themselves.
Tremblingly reported to Yizhou, I heard that Rong Sleeping Crane sent the former military advisor of the Jishan thief, Le Yangwen, to personally go to the place to thoroughly investigate the case, and the people became more and more frightened, after all, this military advisor is also very famous in Western Xinjiang, I like to say that he is resourceful, and I don't like to say that he is cunning like a fox, all in all, he is not a person to deal with.
And then he was born as a bandit, and who knows what he will do with it?
However, these officials made a false alarm, because although Rong Sleeping Crane sent Le Yangwen to go out in person, he did not go for them. In fact, Le Yangwen also comforted the local officials meaningfully: "How erosive the western Xinjiang has been over the years, outsiders don't know, you and I have been here for many years, can you still not be clear? I don't blame you for this, you only blame the old parents for not carefully purging the bandits when they were in office, isn't this just harming others and themselves? Fortunately, now that the king of the county has arrived, he is young and promising, but he has made up his mind to pacify the western Xinjiang." There will probably never be such a thing again. ”
This tone was set, and within two days, Rong Mianhe slapped the official document of the investigation in front of Ni Jidao and a few people: "Everyone, the Western Xinjiang is like this, but you still refuse to control the army as a stabbing historian, what kind of heart is it?!"
"If you want to talk about bandits, the most ferocious bandits in Western Xinjiang are none other than the Jishan bandits under the command of the county king. Ni Jidao was naturally unwilling to hand over the power to be slaughtered, and there was also the Meng family behind his back, which was to refute, "Especially the old parents have been waiting for the county king in Yizhou City for many days, and they don't see anything bad." But after the arrival of the county king, he was killed within a few days of the handover, who knows if it was the county king who brought the old illness of Jishan robbers in Yizhou to relapse, and looked at the old parents who brought a lot of money and silk to hurry, and had a bad heart?"
"There is a saying in the market that the prodigal son does not change his money when he turns back. Rong Sleeping Crane said with an indifferent expression, "The Jishan thief has taken the initiative to submit to the country long before he stepped into the western frontier, and the lone has already been on the table in Chang'an, and the holy decree will arrive soon, and he will be officially canonized as an official of the imperial court!
Ni Jidao said: "The country is easy to change, and the nature is difficult to change! The Jishan thieves have been crisscrossing the western frontier for many years, and they are fierce and vicious, and everyone knows it! They must have done such a big case as the murder of the old parents! The prince of the county is young, and it is inevitable that he will be deceived by appearances, so it is better to think twice!"
Rong Sleeping Crane laughed instead of anger when he heard this, and said: "You bully the lonely young?
"You!" Ni Jidao said that although he was afraid of Rong Sleeping Crane, after all, he had been a general of the imperial court for decades, and he was very decent, and he still felt unacceptable for this kind of face-to-face humiliation, and his anger suddenly appeared, "It's better for the county king to be careful when he speaks! Although I am obsessed with how old the county king is, but the age is not as good as the queen mother!
"Do you take the queen to suppress the orphan?" Rong Sleeping Crane said indifferently, "When today's son is seventeenth and practiced Zuo, then according to the meaning of your words, the Son of Heaven at that time was inevitably deceived by appearances? Who are you insinuating about? Guifei Niangniang, Zhaoyi Niangniang, or Zheng Guogong who was entrusted by the Son of Heaven to govern the court, Marquis Wu'an, and Marquis Chengyang?
The two sides quarreled for most of the day, and finally Ni Jidao was defeated by Rong Sleeping Crane's eloquence, and was forced to agree to give up part of the military power and hand it over to Rong Sleeping Crane for moderation.
"General Meng also said before, this master came to Yizhou in the west, but he was not stopped from above, and it was a matter of time before he seized power after he came. Ni Ji said that of course they were unwilling, and they were also very worried, as soon as this opening was opened, Rong Sleeping Crane would inevitably continue to forge ahead, and sooner or later they would take away the ownership of their hands.
Even if they take their family and property back to the Central Plains to spend their old age in peace, they may not be able to.
If this kind of speculation was only vague before, the matter of the predecessor's assassination is tantamount to saying that it is a rut in the past.
Although Rong Sleepy Crane kept saying that this predecessor must have been committed by bandits, or that Ru Ru was secretly treacherous, Ni Jidao and others suspected that Rong Sleepy Crane was shouting to catch the thief, and the purpose was nothing more than to use this as a reason to force them into the palace.
At this moment, they all looked solemn, "There is no way to hand over some of the military power to him at this time, and according to the agreement agreed earlier, I hope that even if I can't stump him, I can delay it for a while, and wait for General Meng to recover a little!"
Meng Jiaqian, who is backed by the Meng family, is now their biggest backer and source of confidence in front of them, but Meng Jiaqian, as the grandson of Zheng Guogong, is not as good as Rong Sleeping Crane, who is the concubine of King Gaomi, in terms of natural status and generation.
At this time, he is still seriously injured and has no energy, so he is not the opponent of Rong Sleeping Crane, and the protection of Ni Jidao is of course limited.
Fortunately, his status in the Meng clan is not low, although he was defeated and lost in the hands of Rong Sleeping Crane before, and the Meng clan secretly sent an envoy over to reprimand him, but in the end, he did not send another disciple to take over the western frontier, and obviously planned to continue to give him a chance.
This point was immediately informed by Meng Jiaqian of the three of Ni Jidao, and now the three of them wholeheartedly pray that Meng's reinforcements can arrive in time, "Before General Meng was transferred to Western Xinjiang, the hussar general gave three thousand fine cavalry, and I don't know what they will give at this time?"
"The Northern Xinjiang Army is strong, and our Western Xinjiang Army is incomparable. Lou Peng said, "Even though the subordinates of the King of Mizhen County have the intention of gathering the victims for training, but this kind of hastily trained soldiers are not even as good as our Western Xinjiang Army, let alone the Northern Xinjiang Army?
Dai Gulian frowned and said: "I'm afraid that if the Meng clan increases the number of troops to General Meng again, General Huaihua will not sit idly by! That relationship with the king of Mizhen County, although he does not have a deep father-son relationship between the hussar general and General Meng, in the end, he is also his uncle and nephew, how can he see the king of Mizhen County alone?"
"There's no need to worry about that. Ni Jidao said, "You probably don't know. Before the king of Mizhen County married the princess of the county, he had some quarrels with Miss Zhao San, that is, the beloved daughter of General Huaihua. General Huaihua's wife died early, and he has not remarried since then, obviously he has a lot of feelings for the original partner, so for Miss Zhao San, who is the original daughter, of course, he is also regarded as a pearl in the palm of his hand. In this way, how could General Huaihua not complain about the King of Mizhen County? After all, this nephew was not raised by him. ”
Lou Peng said: "But you don't have to forget Princess Gaomi! That is the sister of General Huaihua, this princess is rumored to be very fond of the King of Mizhen County." If you know that the Meng clan will increase the troops in the western frontier for General Meng, how can you not intercede with General Huaihua for the king of Mizhen County?"
When they were arguing, Rong Sleepy Crane had already found Meng Jiaqian.
The purpose was clear: he was here to ask for someone.
Naturally, it was the 3,000 elite horsemen brought by Meng Jiaqian from northern Xinjiang...... Well, now there are no three thousand, at most two thousand, three or four hundred.
And it's not a fine horse, because too many horses have been lost, and many people in this team can only change their careers to be foot soldiers at this time.
But none of this detracts from their toughness.
Of course, it is impossible for Meng Jiaqian to hand over his capital to anyone, let alone his great enemy, Rong Sleepy Crane.
It's just that he couldn't stand Meng Shi before, in order to allow him to have an advantage in the Western Frontier, he was given a high position: General Yunlu from the third grade!
It is sad to say, General Zhou's great military exploits back then, and he only achieved the return of the general from the third grade, and the imperial court could not tolerate it, Meng Jiaqian was only in his early twenties this year, saying that he was Meng Boqin's favorite son, and he was extremely talented in both civil and military affairs, but he did not have any serious military exploits until now, just because he had a good aunt and grandmother, he was already one level higher than General Zhou.
At this time, Rong Sleeping Crane retaliated with a tooth for a tooth, asking him to perform the duties of General Yunlu: The highest general on the Western Xinjiang side was Ni Jidao, a loyal general.
Meng Jiaqian is higher than Ni Jidao in terms of background and official position, and now that the predecessor of the assassin has been killed, this is a first-class local official and an official of the imperial court!
was robbed and killed on the territory where he had been grazing for decades, and Rong Mianhe confidently asked Meng Jiaqian to take responsibility: "You and I are both new officials here, and we are too late to sort out the place in a hurry, which caused the old parents to suffer this fate, and now they don't even want to do anything to make amends?!"
If you see the refreshing, you will go to the [apex.]
