As the night deepened, the banquet originally prepared by the governor's mansion was not put on the table, and the family only bought a few small dishes and brought them into Lord Wei's study.
In a short time, a team of more than 2,000 people drove to the governor's yamen and blocked several nearby streets, among which there were 300 eunuchs and 200 guards, and the remaining 1,500 were local soldiers in Datong.
If you ask how Chang Yu mobilized the military camp without Jiang Jiu's warrant, the reason is very simple, because he has the amulets of Jinyiwei and Dongchang, and more importantly, he has silver, cash!
Two thousand men and horses are guarded layer by layer, even if Jiang Jiu wants to mutiny, it is not so easy, not to mention that the western camp, the largest barracks, is blocked by Tang Potian at this time, and no one is allowed to enter.
There is another reason, Datong City originally claimed to have 50,000 soldiers, but Yang Zhengwu took away 20,000 at night, and folded all kinds of empty water, it would be good to have more than 10,000 at this time.
I don't know what Jiang Hao is doing at this time, but in the study of Wei Jingyu in the governor's mansion, the three of them are plotting how to kill him.
"Do you think Jiang Jiu will take advantage of tonight to escape from the city?" Wu Mengming asked with a smile.
"No!" Chang Yu immediately responded: "First, he doesn't have a handle in our hands, second, Datong is his territory, and he has nothing to fear, and third, he doesn't believe that the imperial court will really do anything to him at this time." Fourth, tonight's incident, he felt that it was only a personal grudge with me. All in all, he'll pretend nothing happened tonight."
"No wonder those thieves just now didn't chase after us when they saw us running away, they were afraid that if one of them was careless, we would take the live mouth and fall into the handle, Jiang Hao, the dog thief, is really cautious!" Wu Mengming said viciously.
It was late at night, and there were no lights in the governor's palace.
There are patrols with torches walking back and forth from time to time on several streets outside the house, although the night is cold, but the soldiers' expressions are difficult to hide their joy, after all, each person can receive a tael of silver tomorrow, and he is happy to think about it, especially the local soldiers speculated in their hearts, it is rumored that the people of Jinyiwei and Dongchang are fucking bad, how can it be different from the rumors, so real, cash in silver.
That's right, Chang Yu's protection fee for this night cost two thousand taels!
The sky was bright, and Chang Yu was already seven or eight o'clock when he got up, not because he was lazy, but because the pain last night was inevitable for a while, and the pain disappeared until the early morning, and he was at this time when he opened his eyes.
After washing, his own family brought breakfast, and just after it was used up, Wu Mengming and Wei Jingyu came to greet him.
The soldiers outside the palace have been withdrawn, and the Teng Xiang guard and the eunuch army on duty last night have also been replaced by Tang Potian's palace guards on duty.
"There's no movement," Chang Yu took his tea and cleared his mouth.
"I don't hear him, Jiang Hao is down, he can't breathe," Wu Mengming sneered.
"Master, the chief soldier asks to see you!" At this moment, the housekeeper of the Wei Mansion arrived in a hurry, and Wu Mengming almost squirted out a sip of tea, so coincidentally.
Wei Jingyu and Chang Yu glanced at each other, and then lightly invited him in.
"Hey, Lord Wei, the emperor's guards are used to patrol you outside the house, are you considered trespassing?" Not long after, Jiang Jiu's ridicule came from outside.
"Jiang Zongbing can't say nonsense, the old man doesn't dare to commit this crime of bullying the king, yesterday Chang Gonggong, Lord Wu stayed in the mansion, these guards are protecting the two adults" Wei Jingyu's face did not change, he got up to greet him, and even had a smile on his face.
"Ah, Father-in-law Chang, Lord Wu stayed here and there yesterday, and the last general thought that he was resting in the barracks yesterday, so he sent someone to the camp to pick him up, but reported that no one was allowed to enter the barracks, and he thought that the two adults were inside." Jiang Hao had a surprised expression, and then saluted Chang Yu and Wu Mengming, as if he really didn't know that the two of them were here.
Chang Yu smiled slightly, and hugged his fists in return: "Yesterday, I was going to rest in the military camp, but I didn't think about it, but I was attacked by thieves in the city, and I had to take refuge in the governor's mansion. βγ
"Ah, there is such a thing, have the two adults ever been hurt" Jiang Hao looked concerned, and then his face showed anger: "It's really hateful, who is so bold to rush to break ground at the heads of the two adults, and when the end will turn back and investigate well, even if he digs three feet into the ground, he has to give an explanation to the two adults."
"Our family is also curious, our family has just arrived, who has provoked whom?" Chang Yu sneered and rolled his eyes.
Jiang Hao raised his eyebrows: "Chang Gonggong probably doesn't know that there are many gangs in Shanxi, and Datong is no exception, there are often gangs fighting in the city, could it be that a certain gang ambush can't think that Chang Gonggong and others will enter by mistake, so that it will ...... Ahem, but no matter what, the end of the day will be turned upside down."
"It's time to check it out" Chang Yu sighed: "Our family's life is cheap, and it doesn't hurt to be hard, but if Lord Wu makes a mistake, the dinosaur Yan is furious, and the consequences are unbearable."
Wu Mengming immediately snorted coldly, rolled his eyes, and looked indignant, this product is the best supporting role, and he can take any scene.
When Jiang Hao heard this, he hurriedly approached Wu Mengming and confessed again and again, shushing the cold and asking for warmth, but Wu Mengming looked arrogant and ignored him.
"Father-in-law Chang, I heard that yesterday you and Lord Wei and Lord Wu went to the Daiwang Mansion and borrowed food and salary, but is it true?" After the hypocrisy was half loud, Jiang Hao sat down and raised such a topic.
"Mr. Jiang is also well-informed, that's right, I borrowed it, and I borrowed it!" Chang Yu said.
"Father-in-law Chang is amazing" Jiang Xuan, stretched out his thumb, and admired him: "I really borrowed it, and the food and salary owed to Datong ......"
"I'll settle it for you when I turn around."
"Great, now the sergeants are finally looking forward to the end" Jiang Huang looked happy, stroked his palms, and thanked Chang Yu: "The last general will thank Chang Gonggong, Lord Wei, and Lord Wu for those soldiers."
This Nima drama essence, Chang Yu scolded secretly in his heart, but with a smile on his face, he was polite again and again.
"Master, Lord Wang, the governor of Xuanda, came to see him, but he was stopped by the guards outside" The housekeeper came to report again at this time, and Wei Jingyu hurriedly asked for it.
Chang Yu and Wu Mengming glanced at each other, this was too coincidental, they all rushed together.
As soon as they heard that Wang Jifu was coming, Wei Jingyu and Jiang Hao hurriedly went out of the house to greet them in person, after all, Lao Wang was their top boss, and the courtesy should not be lost, as soon as the two of them left the hall, only Chang Yu and Wu Mengming were left.
"Jiang Gou is extremely disgusting, so hypocritical, if you really don't know what to do," Wu Mengming said fiercely.
Chang Yu smiled: "The weather is so good today, what to worry about with a dead man, there is no reason to spoil the fun."
Wu Mengming sneered.
While the two were talking, they heard a sound in the outer hall, and soon saw a white-faced old man of fifty or sixty years old with a slightly chubby and medium stature stepping into the hall quickly, followed by Wei Jingyu and Jiang Xuan, needless to say that this person was Wang Jimo, the governor of Xuanda.
"Lord Wu, the lower officials are polite, the day before yesterday, the lower officials in Yanghe were too busy with official business to go out of the city to greet them, but after the matter was over, they told Lord Wu that they had left, ashamed and ashamed, rude and rude."
As soon as Wang Jimo entered the lobby, he glanced at it and went straight to Wu Mengming, although he had never seen the commander of the Jinyi Guard, but there were two people in the hall, Chang Yu looked like a white-faced young man, and the identity of the commander of the Jinyi Guard did not match.
Wu Mengming smiled faintly, got up and clenched his fists: "Governor Wang is polite, and he also has official business below, so he has to meet here when he enters the city to visit Governor Wang."
According to the official rank, the commander of the Jinyi Guard is not the third grade, the governor is the second rank from the first rank, and the governor is from the second grade, that is, the general soldier has no rank in the Ming Dynasty, but it is also quite a second or third rank member, to put it bluntly, except for Chang Yu in the lobby, which is higher than Wu Mengming.
However, the reality is so cruel, these people have to call themselves subordinate officials and last generals in front of him, for no other reason than because he is a Jinyi guard.
But after all, Wang Jimo is a second-class official, the governor of Xuanda, Wu Mengming still politely claims to be below, which is already very face-saving, in front of Wei Jingyu and Jiang Xuan, he is the self-proclaimed commander.
"Business is important, business is important" Wang Jimo smiled slightly, and turned to look at Chang Yu: "This must be Chang Gonggong of Dongchang, what a talent, young and promising" Needless to say, on the way to come just now, Wei Jingyu or Jiang Jiu had already told him that there was such a person.
Chang Yu smiled and didn't say anything, but just arched his hand.
Wang Jimo scolded his mother in his heart, died of castration, and Zhen Nima put on the score.
"Governor Wang is here as scheduled, it seems that the official business has been done" Everyone sat down, Wu Mengming went straight to the topic, the official business he said was naturally Chang Yu in Yanghe and asked Wang Jimo to prepare food and salary in his name before.
Sure enough, when Wang Jimo heard this, he immediately had a bitter face and shook his head gently: "Lord Wu, you also know the current situation, the imperial court is in arrears of food and wages, and it only relies on borrowing a real drop in the bucket everywhere, and the big families in Yanghe City begged grandpa to sue grandma within two days of the lower officials only borrowed 200 stone of grain, not to mention using it to support other places, even Yanghe and the local area are insufficient."
"Lord Wang is the governor of Xuanda, and the governor of the three towns is responsible for food and military affairs, and he can't share the worries of the court, and he can't solve problems for the soldiers, so frankly speaking, he is derelict in his duties."
Chang Yu's faint words suddenly shocked the people in the hall, he said this mercilessly, the direct slap in the face was too serious, and the most important thing was that Wang Jimo was a little angry on his face with a guilty tone.
"Father-in-law Chang said this......" Wang Jimo was about to speak with a dark face, but at this moment, the housekeeper of the Wei Mansion hurriedly ran over: "Master, master, the holy decree is coming, the holy decree is coming!" β
Rub, even Chang Yu was shocked now, what's going on today, how is it one after another.
"Quickly get my official uniform" Wei Jingyu hurriedly got up, and the housekeeper rushed away, you must know that it is a solemn and sacred thing for the courtier to receive the decree, not a matter that you can kneel when the decree comes, you must clean your hands or change your official uniform.
As soon as Wei Jingyu cleaned his hands and changed into his official uniform, he saw a few eunuchs hurrying to the front of the hall, and before they could speak, everyone felt that something was wrong.
