Wang Zhizheng led 5,000 Praetorian Guards and spent five days exterminating the thieves who had been plagued by Stone Mountain for more than two years. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

For more than two years, this group of thieves under the leadership of the king has done all kinds of evil, in addition to killing, extortion, kidnapping, robbery, robbing homes and houses, robbing women, that is, searching everywhere for edible food, forcibly harvesting the crops of the common people. The people of more than a dozen counties in Hejian Province were feared by the scourge.

Wiped out the bandits, the happiest is nothing more than the common people, when Wang Zhizheng's class returned to Hejian Mansion, the common people cheered thunderously, and the people who came to the labor army were crowded, with chickens, ducks, fish and meat.

Wang Zhizheng and several other high-ranking generals were surrounded in the middle. Wang Zhizheng was in a good mood, and he ordered the forbidden army to hang Wang Chang's head with a bamboo pole at the entrance of the vegetable market.

Wang Zhizheng stood in the middle, and several big squires of Hejian Mansion donated five thousand taels of silver on behalf of the people of Hejian Mansion.

Looking at the silver taels of white flowers, Wang Zhizheng laughed happily.

An old squire with a white beard knelt down and said: "The great commander of the heavenly generals has eliminated the thieves who have been in trouble for many years, so that the people in Hejian Mansion can live and work in peace and contentment again, and the old man on behalf of the people of Hejian Mansion thanks the great commander for his kindness!"

Wang Zhizheng waved his hand and said with a generous smile: "The old man is invited to get up quickly, this handsome man came to suppress the thief, it is in accordance with the holy decree of the saint, I want to thank you, it should be long live Emperor Xie Wu, long live!"

The old man shouted loudly: "Long live my emperor, long live!"

Then the people knelt on the ground and shouted, "Long live my emperor, long live!"

Wang Zhizheng laughed and said: "Since the old man represents the hearts of the people of Hejian Mansion, then this thousands of silver taels, Ben Shuai will accept it, if there are bandits in Hejian Mansion in the future, please directly ask Shen Zhifu to ask the emperor for instructions, Ben Shuai will still sweep away the thieves!"

Wang Zhizheng waved his hand, and the Praetorian Guards got up and returned to the camp with silver taels and chickens, ducks, and fish.

The old man said with a smile: "The old man is seventy-five years old this year, and he is a talent in Wanli for five years, but it is a pity that he has no fame, and he has always regretted it for life, but the old man has a grandson, named Pang Ning, who is twenty-five years old this year, and has always been interested in joining the army.

Wang Zhizheng rode a high-headed horse, and Shen Shaoxian, the prefect of Hejian, rode a horse and followed closely behind Wang Zhizheng.

Wang Zhizheng frowned: "Entering the Praetorian Guard has to be strictly selected, although you have meritorious service in the army, but the commander will not directly let him enter the Praetorian Guard, you let him come to the yamen to register, if he meets the standards, he can still enter the Praetorian Guard." ”

The old man smiled and said proudly: "The commander doesn't know, my grandson organized a two-hundred-hundred-person regiment, followed the Shen Governor's Mansion to conquer Stone Mountain several times, and personally killed Wang Gui, the second leader of Stone Mountain, and killed the enemy bravely, and was a battalion officer trained by the militia regiment. ”

Shen Shaoxian immediately laughed when he heard this: "The commander, this grandson of Pang Yuanwai, did take the militia to follow him to conquer Stone Mountain, Wang Gui, the second leader of Stone Mountain, encountered him on the first line of the sky, and the ambush was captured, he was calm and calm, not only did he not suffer, but Wang Gui was cut off by him with a knife!"

Hearing this, Wang Zhizheng came to the spirit, he was born ** talent, he likes talents, he smiled at the old man: "Pang Yuanwai, let your grandson come to the prefect's yamen tonight to find me, I will come to inspect and investigate, if it is indeed talented, of course I will bring it back to Beijing, if the performance is excellent, of course I will not hesitate to entrust me with important tasks." ”

The old man was overjoyed and knelt on the ground to thank him. Wang Zhizheng laughed and left as soon as he raised his horsewhip.

Shen Shao rode a horse behind and followed closely with a smile: "The Great Commander has been tired of saddle horses this time, the Praetorian Guards have made great sacrifices, and as a local magistrate, I am also infinitely grateful to the Grand Commander." Tonight, I will prepare a little turbid wine in the house, and ask the commander to appreciate his face. ”

After winning the battle and killing Li Kuilong, Wang Zhizheng was in a very relaxed mood, he hadn't drunk for five days, and his alcohol addiction came up, and after hearing Shen Shaoxian's treat, he laughed and said: "Yes! Yes! My alcohol addiction is also suffocated!"

That night, Shen Shaoxian, who was good at hospitality, set up dozens of tables in the prefect's yamen to entertain all the generals of the forbidden army, and also sent 200 jars of old wine and 3,000 catties of beef to the camp of the Praetorian Guard, so that the forbidden army could feast.

Wang Zhizheng sat on the top, and the prefect Shen Shaoxian and twelve prefects accompanied him on the side.

Shen Shaoxian smiled and raised his glass and said: "Great Commander, I have been in Hejian Mansion for the past two years, and the biggest worry is this Wang Chang, now that Wang Chang is in the law, I have no more worries, and our Hejian Mansion must accompany the Grand Commander to get drunk and rest." ”

Wang Zhizheng laughed, took the wine glass and drank it all, and then slammed the wine glass on the table: "Sure enough, it's good wine! ”

Shen Shaoxian said with a smile: "I will prepare two hundred altars tomorrow, and ask the commander to accept them, all of which are a little bit of sincerity of humility and filial piety." ”

Wang Zhizheng praised Shen Shaoxian and said: "Shaoxian, you are the first to follow me, and you are also the most sensible and capable minister, this time you entered the stone mountain and captured and killed Li Kuilong, you also made a great contribution, the guide you sent, and the continuous supply of military supplies you sent supported the smooth entry and suppression of our Praetorian Guard." ”

Shen Shaoxian said modestly: "I have been encircled and suppressed several times, and I have been defeated, if it weren't for the great commander to protect me, I'm afraid my black yarn hat would have been taken off by the emperor a long time ago!"

Wang Zhizheng laughed and pointed at Li Kuilong: "I just like you to be sensible." Don't worry, when I return to Beijing this time, I will show you the merits of the Holy Lord, 9,000 years old, if nothing else, your next step is to be the new servant of the Ministry of Officials. ”

As soon as Wang Zhizheng's voice fell, the magistrates cast envious eyes to Shen Shaoxian, Shen Shaoxian was naturally happy to close his mouth, he stood up and bowed to the ground: "Shaoxian, thank you for the grace of the commander." ”

Wang Zhi wanted to transfer Shen Shaoxian into the capital, nominally to add a capable general to Wei Zhongxian, but in fact to increase his power and give him an additional backbone of the Xinwang Party.

Wang Zhizheng nodded and said to Huang Zongxi beside him: "Zhiyi, quickly toast a glass of wine to Governor Shen's Mansion and thank him for his contribution to the supply of military supplies this time." ”

Huang Zongxi raised his glass and saluted Shen Shaoxian, who hurriedly stood up: "I can't do it, I can't help it, Deputy Commander, it was your courage to take the lead, so that the ambush soldiers on the front line of heaven were killed and fled in all directions, where did the lowly position be?"

Huang Zongxi smiled slightly and said: "Lord Shen, they are all working for the imperial court, and they are all people who bathe in the emperor's grace, and everyone has their own responsibilities, of course, in no particular order. ”

Wang Zhizheng nodded and praised Huang Zongxi for speaking decently.

Shen Shaoxian then ordered all the magistrates to raise their glasses: "Come on, come on, colleagues from Hejian Mansion, let us collectively toast a glass of wine to all the soldiers of the forbidden army, and thank the soldiers for their heroic efforts to protect the territory and the people!"

All the prefects stood up and raised their wine glasses, Wang Zhizheng looked at the soldiers and smiled slightly: "Don't be restrained, the prefect of Shen and Ben Shuai are close friends, everyone can rest assured to let go of the drink, don't let go of the hospitality of the colleagues in Hejian Mansion",

The soldiers of the forbidden army stood up together, staggered with their colleagues in Hejian Mansion, and drank harmoniously.

At the end of the banquet, Wang Zhizheng drank and went back to his room to sleep with the support of several prefect maids and Zhou Gong.

As soon as he returned to the bedroom, Wang Zhizheng saw a young man in his twenties, accompanied by Shen Shaoxian, waiting cautiously at the door.

Wang Zhizheng rubbed his eyes, pointed at the young man and asked Shen Shaoxian: "Shaoxian, who is this young man?"

Shen Shaoxian said with a smile: "Great Commander, this is Pang Ning, the grandson of Pang Yuanwai." ”

Wang Zhizheng nodded, sat on the chair, and the maid hurriedly brought Wang Zhizheng a bowl of decanting soup.

Wang Zhizheng took a sip of soup and asked, "Pang Ning, I heard that you personally killed the No. 2 bandit leader of Stone Mountain, and you are a brave general?"

Pang Ning hurriedly knelt on the ground: "Back to the commander, the villain is a martial artist and doesn't know how to be polite, but he is indeed determined to join the army, he has always respected the commander, and he wants to serve under the commander." ”

Wang Zhizheng listened to his sonorous speech, neither humble nor arrogant, and suddenly had a good feeling: "Okay, the man's ambition is to be at home and country." If you are determined to follow me, I can't give you too high a position, I can only give you a military leader, if you make outstanding contributions, you can be promoted step by step, you have to think about it. ”

When Pang Ning heard that Wang Zhizheng was planning to take him in, he was immediately overjoyed and said: "Great Commander, don't say it's the commander of the army, if you can enter the forbidden army, let me be an ordinary soldier!"

Wang Zhizheng saw that he was calm, and nodded: "Okay, come to the camp tomorrow to report!"

Pang Ning kowtowed, and Shen Shaoxian smiled and said: "The Great Commander has a good rest, don't be in a hurry to return to Beijing, let the humble post be honored in Hejian Mansion for a few days." ”

Wang Zhizheng waved his hand and said: "Shaoxian, now is not the time to play, the situation in the capital is tense day by day, I can't delay time here, I must return to Beijing immediately." I'll give you a quasi-letter, I have already sent the letter to the prince, the emperor has guaranteed you, no accident, within a month, you will enter Beijing to take up a post. Do a good job, we'll see you in the capital. ”

Shen Shaoxian's heart was ecstatic, and he knelt on the ground with the corner of his robe: "The teacher is above, please kneel down to you." ”

Wang Zhizheng smiled and nodded in permission. Shen Shaoxian respectfully knelt down and kowtowed.

Wang Zhizheng raised his hand: "Get up." You should go back and rest early. ”

Shen Shao first helped Wang Zhizheng to lie on the couch with a smile, and then explained a few words to the maid beside him, and then retreated with Pang Ning.

Wang Zhizheng slept until midnight, and suddenly smelled a pungent aroma, he opened his sleepy eyes, and suddenly saw a stunning beauty in his arms, and his smooth body was like congealed fat.

Wang Zhizheng stroked her skin and asked, "Who is the girl?"

Jia Liwan'er smiled and listened like a pearl jade: "The slave family is a dancing girl in Lord Shen's mansion, her name is Xiangyue, she is nineteen years old, and she has come to sleep for the commander by order of Lord Shen." ”

Wang Zhizheng looked at the beauty in his arms, with a melon seed face, and a delicate face, and it was always appropriate to wear light makeup and heavy makeup, and he couldn't help but love it in his heart. Wang Zhizheng, who has always liked women, was not polite, and without saying a word, he turned over and pressed the beauty under him.
