Chapter Twenty-Three: It's Really Coming.

But no matter what Zhu Yihai's real purpose is.

At least he still took out real money.

Although 2,000 taels are divided into the hands of 1,000 soldiers and civilians, each person is only two taels, but it can also solve the urgent need.

In this world, there are not many people who can do things for the people, and even fewer who can generously help the poor.

Yes, it must be cherished.

Therefore, Wu Zheng is sincerely thanking Zhu Yihai, not just a simple compliment.

If you don't have anything in your hand that you can express your gratitude, it's always okay to say a few good words.

Zhu Yihai was overjoyed when he heard this, pointed his finger at Wu Zheng, and said in his heart, this kid is a talent, and he really knows how to do things.

"Hmm. For you, I have high hopes, and I hope that you will not fail this king. ”

"Keep it in mind."

After retiring to Zhu Yihai, Wu Zheng followed Zhang Huang out of the gate of the "palace".

It is said that it is the palace, but in fact, it is the requisition of the mansion of a businessman.

Naturally, it can't be compared with the real palace of the capital.

Looking at the two boxes of silver on the carriage, Wu Zheng sighed: "His Royal Highness still has the people in his heart. ”

Maybe it's because the two of them had a love affair of tears together before.

Between Zhang Huangyan and Wu Zheng, the distance became very close, and he spoke much more casually.

It is said that they have studied together, carried guns together, been in prison together, and voted for prostitution together, and they are good brothers.

But if you have shed tears together for the same thing, it is a fateful friendship.

Because the first four are objective, while the latter are subjective.

The resonance of the soul is the communication of the soul.

Zhang Huangyan sighed lightly and said in a low voice: "Born at the wrong time, if it is in the peaceful years, His Royal Highness can be a Ming Jun." It's a pity ....... ”

Wu Zheng didn't answer, although he didn't know why Zhang Huangyan said it was a pity, but Wu Zheng knew very well that Zhang Huangyan was right.

If it is not a pity, how can history be the final destruction of Nanming.

Wu Zheng bowed his hand to Zhang Huangyan and said: "If Lord Zhang has nothing else, Wu Zheng will leave, there are so many soldiers and civilians gathered on the shore, and if you are not careful, it will cause a big change." ”

Zhang Huangyan nodded and said, "Yes, the soldiers and civilians on the shore really need to be evacuated as soon as possible." Wu Zheng, His Royal Highness has already informed Zhang Shangshu, tomorrow you go to the Yamen again, I will lead you to the military department to get the documents and the token of 100 households, and then you can go to the guard to take office. ”

"Then it's annoying Lord Zhang."

Zhang Huangyan nodded with a smile and said, "Go ahead." ”

"Where is this going?"

When such a sound came, Wu Zheng and Zhang Huangyan turned back together.

I saw Zhang Guowei and Qian Sule coming out of the palace together.

Zhang Guowei said with a smile: "Wu Zheng, would you like to appreciate the light and go to the old man's house for a banquet?" ”

Wu Zheng was really taken aback, the other party was a second-grade military department scholar.

This is equivalent to the later Minister of Defense inviting a company commander, no, now a battalion commander, to a family dinner.

It's simply incredible.

Looking at Wu Zheng's surprised face, Zhang Guowei turned his head to Qian Sule and smiled: "Look, Lord Qian, the old man said that you and I don't have enough face, right?" ”

Qian Sule's face was pale, and he glanced at Wu Zheng and said, "Wu Zheng, the so-called elder gives, don't dare to resign." Zhang Shangshu is promoting you, you can't know what to do. ”

After speaking, he glanced at Zhang Huangyan.

Zhang Guowei hurriedly said: "It's not so serious, it's just gossip." ”

Wu Zheng was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly responded: "Back to the adult's words, the lower official is just worried about the lack of food and accommodation for the soldiers and civilians along the river, and it is not that he does not want to be invited by the adult. ”

Zhang Guowei laughed when he heard this: "Lord Qian, listen, listen, a young man who has not yet reached the crown can still think of his subordinates and the people in distress when he is favored by the prison country and proud of the spring breeze, which is rare!" ”

Qian Sule's iron face moved, and he said, "What Lord Zhang said is very true. It's really rare. ”

At this time, Zhang Huangyan smiled and said to Wu Zheng: "Lord Wu may not know that after the dispersal of the dynasty, Lord Zhang and Lord Qian ordered the officials to arrange this matter, and now the soldiers and civilians on the shore have set up tents and buried pots to make rice. Although it is a little simpler, it is still possible to have food and clothing. Lord Wu don't have to worry. ”

Wu Zheng heard a move in his heart, it turned out that Fang and Wang brushed their sleeves away, and after the civil and military forces dispersed, Zhang Huangyan and others did not abandon themselves and left, but went to arrange food and accommodation for the soldiers and civilians on the shore.

In this way, he spends the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain.

"Wu Zhengdai's soldiers and people have thanked the three adults." Wu Zheng bowed and said.

Zhang Guowei bowed slightly, and Zhang Huangyan returned the salute.

Qian Sule said with a straight face: "The people are the people of the Ming Dynasty, the soldiers are the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, you and I are both Ming courtiers, why thank you?" Thank you? Why thanks? ”

Wu Zheng was so open and speechless that he didn't know how to answer.

Fortunately, Zhang Guowei played a round and said: "Lord Qian, you just don't know how to turn around, look at it, a good word, but the young man didn't know how to answer." ”

Qian Sule said: "The world is full of people who know how to turn around, and they are occupied by hundreds of thousands of Tartars. ”

Zhang Guowei was agitated by these words, and his face was a little worried.

Wu Zheng saw that something was wrong, if he quarreled at the gate of the palace, in the final analysis, it was because he was not interested.

The sin is great.

So he hurriedly said: "Since the three adults have already helped the lower officials to settle the soldiers and civilians by the riverside, then the lower officials are respectful and obedient to their orders, and they will disturb Lord Zhang." ”

Zhang Guowei and Qian Sule have a shallow relationship, but they are just in a hurry.

Hearing Wu Zheng's round, he responded with the situation: "This is very good, Lord Qian, then let's go." ”

Qian Sule actually regretted it as soon as he said it, Zhang Guowei may have limited ability, but his character is commendable.

At this time, when I heard Zhang Guowei say hello, I responded.

Zhang Guowei took two steps towards Wu Zheng, and said to Zhang Huang: "Master Zhang should also come along." ”

Zhang Huangyan responded with a smile: "Then the lower official will be bothered, I haven't drunk for many days, and the wine worms on my mouth are going to crawl out, I heard that there is an old flower carving hidden in the house of Lord Shangshu, and you can drink a few more jars today to satisfy your hunger, can you feel distressed?" ”

Zhang Guowei laughed and said: "You Zhang Xuan is known to passers-by for his gluttonous drinking. Don't worry, the old man has prepared enough wine today, so you can have a good drink. ”

The group of four went to Zhang's mansion.

Say it's a house, that's polite.

Even the palace was requisitioned from local merchants, and Zhang's mansion was naturally even more unbearable.

Fortunately, the place is big enough, and the wine is enough.

Shaoxing old wine, with fennel beans, peanuts, a plate of spiced dried tofu, and a bowl of salted pork head meat.

It's also a good dish.

But Wu Zheng never thought that the banquet of the dignified Ming Military Department was such a show.

Zhang Guowei raised his glass and invited to drink: "Everyone, today's family banquet is a small gathering, drink freely, and don't get drunk and don't return." ”

Qian Sule and Zhang Huangyan raised their lamps in response: "Zhang Gong is hospitable, how can we not obey?" ”

Wu Zheng hurriedly got up and said to the three of them: "The three adults forgive their sins, Wu Zheng has not healed, he doesn't dare to drink alcohol, and he hopes that the three adults will be compassionate." ”
