Lang Zhong is a civil official of the fifth grade, how could this person not run errands in the yamen, but is bent on going to Datong? Cui Keyin was very curious about this Lang Zhong called Wish, and Zhou Heng smiled: "If you are curious, you might as well meet him together." ”

"Okay." Cui Keyin agreed at once, changed into the clothes of the guest, and waited for the wish to come.

Wishing to be born in a poor family, his father is a hunter, he has followed his father into the mountains to hunt since he was a child, and his archery skills are very good. At the age of thirteen, he followed his father to sell his prey to the market, and met a scholar who said that his life was strange and noble, so his father sent him to private mat school, saying that he would be extraordinary in the future.

When his father heard this, he immediately took the money from the sale of his prey and sent him to study privately.

The wish is really not what the negative phase scholar said, if there is divine help in reading, he will be admitted to the Jinshi at the age of 28. Luck is so good, there is no silver to ask someone to give gifts to the back door, but he can stay in Beijing, or stay in the household department, and become a positive eight-grade Zhaomao. In this way, after more than ten years, he was promoted to the fifth rank of Lang.

Two days ago, when I heard that the Tatars had invaded the border, we suffered numerous casualties, and after the enemy had looted it, he was so angry that he smashed the table with one punch.

Although he took the road of the imperial examination and took the civil official as the rank of promotion, he never put down the bow and arrow riding and archery over the years, and his martial arts were not wasted. He is not qualified to go to the court, he is not qualified to participate in the court meeting, I don't know what Emperor Zhi'an and Wang Zhe think. He only knew that when the enemy invaded, he should fight back fiercely, destroy the enemy, and at worst, drive the enemy back to his lair, how could he just shrink back? Let the blood of the warriors be shed in vain and the people die in vain?

So he went to the book. Request to go to the border of Datong to guard the land of the Celestial Empire.

After handing it over, he began to pack his bags. His wife was so worried that she could not do it, and persuaded him: "The court has its own laws, and if you blindly act like this, I am afraid that not only will you not be able to get what you want, but you will be punished." ”

The imperial court has commanders who lead troops, generals who can fight well, where is the use of sending a five-grade civil official to guard the border? Wouldn't it be a joke if it was spread out? It damages the face of the Celestial Empire.

He made a wish: "If Wang Zhe is in power." I'm afraid that you will be right. Now that King Jin is in power, I think he is young, but he is a little different. Let's see what he does. ”

Seeing that he couldn't persuade him, his wife just shook her head and sighed.

The couple finished their dinner. Just about to take a break. The little guy guarding the portal came running and said, "My lord." A father-in-law came from outside the door, saying that the king of Jin was invited. ”

That father-in-law was about the same age as him, but he was a very stable and humble person. It's reassuring to look at.

He who came rejoiced. Since Zhou Heng valued this person so much, he naturally had to make a trip in person. Looking at the mansion where he made a wish, it was located in a narrow alley, with only three main rooms and two ear rooms, which was very simple, and his favorability value for making a wish skyrocketed. This man is a not too greedy official.

When the wishing couple heard that King Jin was coming, they looked at the inky black sky outside. The wife said first: "Why did you come to invite you when it was dark?" Can't you go back during the day? ”

Fujun is just a small five-grade official, and there are many such petty officials in the capital. It's a curfew outside, and if you are caught patrolling the city, you will lose your official position, or you will lose your life, but it's not fun.

The wish also thought for the first time, whether Zhou Heng would use the hand of the city patrol to kill him, but he was denied almost when this idea came to mind. Prince Tangtang, if you want to get rid of him as a five-grade petty official, where is there such trouble?

"I'll come when I go." He said to his wife, then strode to the door and asked the little guy who came out, "Where is the father-in-law from the Jin Palace?" ”

At the mouth of the alley, there is a black painted flat-topped carriage, and two bright lanterns are hung in front of the car, with three big red paint characters on it: Jin Wangfu. The two teams were brightly armoured, and the guards of the tall horses lined up solemnly behind the carriage.

Huanxi tied his hands and said "please": "Lord Xu, please get in the car." ”

Is this here to pick him up? Wishing was stunned and looked at joy. This kind of carriage that looks like a proud door, he has seen it at the gate of the palace before, and Zhou Heng entered the palace in this kind of carriage. Could it be that this is Zhou Heng's car?

Wishing was hesitant and excited in his heart, but he just looked at Huanxi and didn't move.

Huan said happily: "The prince just saw Lord Xu's performance, and immediately asked our family to pick it up." Please also ask Lord Xu not to let the prince wait for a long time. ”

It turned out that there was no conspiracy, but it was just at this time that he saw the twists and turns, so he immediately sent someone to pick him up, which shows that Zhou Heng attaches great importance to him. Without the slightest doubt, Xiang Huanxi arched his hand, stepped on the pedal, and got into the car.

The car is spacious, warm, comfortable, and has a faint fragrance.

He sat down in the carriage, and the carriage drove in the night, and soon arrived at the palace of the king of Jin.

The scenery of the Jin Palace's mansion is hidden in the night, and all the way down, only the lanterns are hung at the corners. I don't know how long I walked, but I came to a courtyard. Huan Xi said: "Lord Xu, wait here, let's go and report first." ”

He made a wish and said, "There is Father-in-law." ”

Zhou Heng and Cui Keyin have been waiting in Biyunju for a long time, Cui Keyin is sitting next to Zhou Heng reading a book, and Zhou Heng is commenting under the candle.

The wish was coming, and Zhou Heng said, "Please." ”

When I entered the door, I saw a handsome young man sitting on the throne, and next to him sat a very beautiful young woman, who was holding a half-read book in her hand.

He didn't dare to look at it anymore, lowered his head and saluted seriously: "The lower official made a wish to see the prince and the princess." ”

The Manchu Dynasty knows that the King of Jin has only one concubine, and the beautiful young woman in front of him is not the Princess of Jin, who is it?

Zhou Heng said with a smile: "Lord Xu doesn't need to be polite, please take a seat." ”

He sat down on the chair of the lower head and said: "The lower officials are presumptuous, but seeing that the Tatars are so arrogant, they are unwilling, and they are willing to defend Datong and do their part for the country and the people." ”

Zhou Heng said: "Lord Xu's high righteousness is really the blessing of the emperor. I wonder if Lord Xu has a strategy to expel the Tatars? ”

Cui Keyin listened to the two of them, looked at the wish carefully, and saw that he was tall, half a head taller than ordinary people, the knuckles on his knees were wide, his voice was loud, and he talked about the strategy of leveling Tatars, and Zhou Heng nodded from time to time.

"Although Xia Guan was born in the imperial examination, he can draw a bow and shoot arrows, and his equestrian skills are no worse than those of Tatar thieves." Finally, he patted his chest and said loudly.

The Dajia Dynasty ruled the military with civility, and the supreme commander of the military generals, the military department Shangshu was a civilian official, and the supreme commander of the border pass was not the general soldier, but the supreme boss of the general army, and the superintendent was also a civilian official. Civilian officials lead troops, they don't need to go into battle to kill the enemy, they just need to strategize.

Wishing to say this is just to show Zhou Heng his determination. He can not only strategize, but also go into battle to kill the enemy, which can be described as an all-round talent in civil and military affairs. There are very few such talents, if you don't send him, who will you send?

Zhou Heng's jaw headed: "Lord Xu, rest assured, this king will strongly recommend it to the emperor, so that Lord Xu can taste his wishes." ”

said that it was recommended to Emperor Zhi'an, but it was just a formality. Wishing to understand it like this, he was overjoyed, and stood up and saluted Zhou Heng to thank him. (To be continued.) )
