Xianfeng couldn't help but be a little disappointed when it took half a year to train the three battalions of soldiers, but thinking of the excerpt on the new Yongding River Wu Tingdong, and thinking that the three battalions were used to defend Jinggi after training, he didn't say anything, but asked coldly: "Do you recognize Wen Shaoyuan of Liuhe Zhi County, Liuhe Zhi County, he seems to have worked as an errand in the Lianghuai Transportation Division." ”

Han Xiufeng didn't expect the emperor to ask this, and suddenly realized that the emperor had the intention to rectify the rule of officials, but as soon as he ascended the throne, he was faced with the crisis of the people's uprising, and there was no time to arrange it calmly, and the room for selecting and employing people was limited, so he could only use the old team of the Daoguang Dynasty to deal with the lack of talents and the status quo of the aging of civil and military officials, otherwise he would never remember Wen Shaoyuan, who was also born as a donor.

"The minister doesn't recognize it, Wen Shaoyuan, the deputy of the minister's acting two Huaiyun, has already been transferred to Liuhe, and he is acting for Liuhe County."

"Then have you ever met Qi Shan?"

"The minister has never seen Lord Qishan, when Lord Qishan led the reinforcements to the outside of Yangzhou last year, the three-way thieves who committed in the east did not dare to go deep alone, and retreated to Yangzhou one after another. Chen was injured in the leg when intercepting one of the thieves, so he was ordered to return to Hai'an to recuperate while recruiting young people to rebuild the salt fishing camp, and never went to Yangzhou again. ”

Xianfeng remembered that there was an injury on the leg in front of him, and subconsciously asked, "Has the injury healed?" ”

Han Xiufeng didn't dare to say anything, and hurriedly said: "Thanks to the emperor's blessing, the minister's injury has healed." ”

Xianfeng originally planned to let Han Si stand up and reply to show his favor, but thinking that Han Si's leg injury had healed, and let him stand on the non-compliance system, he simply dismissed this idea, thought about it and asked, "Then do you recognize Wu Tingdong?" ”

"I don't recognize you."

"Where's Katsubo?"

"The emperor forgives the sin, and the ministers don't recognize Lord Shengbao."

I don't know if I ask three questions, no one recognizes them, Xianfeng is not only not unhappy, but thinks that this is not a bad thing. After all, the three battalions that are about to be trained are used to defend Gyeonggi, and the battalion officers who are responsible for the training of these three battalions should not be recognized by anyone, and after a moment of contemplation, he asked: "You have acted in Taizhou, Taizhou is not far from Yizhen, can you recognize Wu Wenrong's family?" ”

"Back to the emperor, the minister saw the two old ladies of the Wu family, recognized Wu Wenming's cousin Wu Wenming, Lin Fengxiang, Li Kaifang and Zeng Lichang committed Yangzhou, the minister was worried that the Wu family was held hostage by thieves, and sent someone to go to Yizhen with Wu Wenming to pick up the two old ladies, but it was still a step too late to hurry. According to the people who came back, when they arrived, Wujiazhuang had been burned to a ruin by thieves, and the two old ladies led more than 80 children of the Wu family would rather die than surrender, and all of them were martyred. ”

Seeing that the emperor was thoughtful, Han Xiufeng said solemnly: "After Wu Wenming came back from Wujiazhuang, he helped to run the camp in the Taiyong Battalion trained by the ministers, and personally led more than 30 villagers to attack and harass the bandits in the area of Daqiao Town, not only burned the grain and grass that the thieves had hoarded in Daqiao Town, but also killed more than 40 thieves. ”

"And then?"

"Later, the minister wanted to return to Hai'an to recuperate from his injuries, so he had to entrust the Taiyong camp to Governor Yan Zhang Yiguo and Wu Wenming, and then they served under Lei Yicheng Lei."

Remembering that Qi Shanguo folded the bullet to impeach Zhang Yiguo a few years ago, and the political envoy of Jiangningbu, the envoy of Jiangsu according to the inspection and the envoy of the two Huai salt transporters actually went to the excerpt to protect Zhang Yiguo, and asked Zhang Yiguo to stay in Yangzhou to serve, Xianfeng subconsciously asked: "Do you recognize Zhang Yiguo?" ”

"The minister knows that he has stayed at Wanfu Bridge with the minister."

"Will Zhang Yiguo fight, is he a greedy person who is afraid of death?"

"Your Majesty, Zhang Yiguo will not be able to fight, and the ministers dare not assert it, but he is by no means greedy for life and afraid of death. When the minister led a thousand townsmen to Wanfu Bridge in the east of Yangzhou City, he had already intercepted the Changchun Bridge in the west of Yangzhou City with his adjutant general Zhu Zhanao. ”

Han Xiufeng felt in his heart that he should help Zhang Yiguo say a few fair words, and he didn't care about the rules of being as concise as possible when playing the right game, and continued: "They have few brave soldiers, and the thieves are strong, so Zhu Zhanao was martyred." Zhang Yiguo gathered his rout after Zhu Zhanao's martyrdom, intercepted it on the side of the canal, and was defeated again. Then gather the remnants of the army to recruit young people to retreat to the fairy temple, but unfortunately the sky did not fulfill people's wishes, and was defeated again in the fairy temple, so they could only go to Wanfu Bridge to hold on with the ministers, which can be called repeated defeats and battles.

Later, he served under the command of Lord Lei, and he even personally led two hundred township warriors to Yangzhou City, but because the officers and soldiers in the west and north of the city did not fight together as agreed, the result fell short, and he could only lead the remaining dozen township warriors to withdraw from the city, it is said that he fell down as soon as he left the city, covered in blood, and suffered dozens of injuries, how could a person like him be greedy for life and afraid of death! ”

Xianfeng believed that Han Si's words would not be false, and finally figured out why Guo Peilin and others wanted to go to the fold to protect Zhang Yiguo, and also realized that Ge Qishan's job reform was not wronged at all, but the war in Jiangbei was not over, and the thieves were still entrenched in Guazhou, and it was not suitable to change the generals, even if they wanted to change, there was no suitable candidate.

There was nothing to ask when I thought about it again, so I simply raised my head and said: "Kneel down, it's important to run errands, and after receiving the official certificate, hurry up and go to Yonggu to take office, don't delay your efforts in entertainment." ”

"Obey."

……

If you don't "kneel down" anymore, Han Xiufeng really can't bear it, although he has soft pads tied to his legs, it's really not a taste to kneel for so long, his legs are numb as if there are countless fine needles piercing, if he doesn't hold it strongly, he can't stand up suddenly.

Holding the "Notes on the Book of Rites" rewarded by the emperor, he walked out of the Old Summer Palace under the envious eyes of the guards, and was about to take a few steps forward to find a place where no one was rubbing his legs, when Datou and Xiaoshan suddenly ran out of the corner, and said happily when they saw him: "Fourth brother, Pan Er is here, and he has also come to the capital!" ”

"Changsheng has returned to Beijing?" Han Xiufeng couldn't believe it was true.

"I'm back, I'm here with Master Wang, I just arrived at the hall at noon, and I happened to eat my wedding wine in the evening, fourth brother, you say it's a coincidence!"

"Which Lord Wang?"

"Hai'an's Wang Lao, who else can be Hai'an's Wang Lao."

"What are they doing in the capital?"

Xiao Shandong took the book, helped Han Xiufeng into the carriage, and said with flying eyebrows: "Fourth master, Brother Changsheng returned to Beijing to receive the certificate like you, and Brother Changsheng said that Lord Guo promoted him to be the ambassador of the Salt Division!" ”

Han Xiufeng then remembered that Pan Er had only donated the top belt before, and did not go to the Ministry of Officials to confess, and if he wanted to act as the ambassador of the Salt Division, he had to come to the Ministry of Officials to register first, and then thought of Wang Qianli, who came to Beijing with Pan Er, and subconsciously asked: "Wang Qianli also came to the Ministry of Officials to confess, right?" ”

"Fourth brother, you guessed so accurately." The big head sat down next to the coachman, turned around and smiled: "Pan Er said that Master Guo originally asked Master Yu and Master Li to come, but Master Yu and Master Li couldn't let go of the house, and they didn't want to go so far, so they didn't come." Master Wang said that it doesn't matter if you can make up for the shortcomings, and said that no matter how much you read, it is better to walk more, just to come out together to see the world. ”

"It's better to read 10,000 books than to walk a thousand miles."

"Yes, yes, that's what Master Wang said!"

Others said this, Han Xiufeng didn't believe it, but Wang Qianli said this, Han Xiufeng was convinced, after all, Wang Qianli's Zhengqipin top belt was given by the emperor, and Guo Peilin took care of him in his hometown.

Thinking that he hadn't seen them for several months, Han Xiufeng couldn't help but smile and said, "They really came early rather than coincidentally, big head, you are lucky to be good." ”

"Fourth brother, what's wrong with me?" The big head asked stupidly.

"They won't eat your wedding wine in vain, not only do they have to send a congratulatory gift, I bet they will also have to help Dean Gu, Yu Qinghuai and Li Zhiyong send it, and even help Master Guo send one, hahahaha."

"Really?"

"What are you lying to, wait for the cashier."

The big head was happy, and grinned: "There is money to collect, this feeling is good!" ”

Han Xiufeng smiled secretly, what's good, you do happy events, people give gifts, do you have something to do, do you want to give gifts? But when I thought of it, I knew that his brain was not good, and no one would care about him, and I found that he could accept this gift, and he didn't have to think about repaying the favor like this.

Talking and laughing all the way, I rushed to the hall to take a look, and it was really lively.

The sedan chair has been hired, and the sedan chair man and Su Jueming, Chen Hu, Ji Daji, and others who will go to Ao's house to pick up their relatives with the big head will all change into new clothes, and the bride price is also neatly arranged.

Huang Zhongyin, Ji Yunfei, Wu Zhaoling, Li Pinsan, Jiang Haoxuan, Wang Zhirong not only came early, but also brought their wives, they sat in the main hall and talked to Pan Er and Wang Qianli, and the ladies sat in the flower hall on the right while knocking melon seeds while making homely meals, and their babies were laughing and playing around the sedan chair in the courtyard.

"Brother Yongzhu, Brother Bowen, Brother Songsheng, you are here, I'm back."

"It's good to come back, what did the emperor say, how did you see you here today?" Ji Yunfei asked eagerly.

Han Xiufeng nodded slightly with Pan Er and Wang Qianli, who were sitting on the side, and said hello, then sat down next to Li Pinsan and said with a smile: "The emperor has to summon a few adults early in the morning, and after summoning a few adults, he will summon a few military attaches led by Lord A Ling'a, the secretary of the military department, and only after summoning those military attaches will he summon me." ”

Wang Qianli came to the capital with Pan Er, originally just planning to see the world, but he didn't expect that Han Si not only had so many Hanlin lords in the capital to take care of him, but also to be summoned by the emperor, and even counted that he had been summoned twice today.

It was not an easy task to meet him, and Pan Er was also very excited, but he knew very well that he did not have a part in talking in front of Huang Zhongyin and other fellow villagers, and it was already very satisfying to be able to sit with him on the side, you must know that he was not much better than a handyman like Xiao Shandong in the guild hall before.

Han Xiufeng didn't want to snub him and Wang Qianli, so he turned around and smiled at them, and then continued: "It was already noon when the eunuch in the recital office announced that I was in the audience, and the emperor probably thought that I was illiterate, so he asked me to transcribe the "Notes on the Book of Rites" in front of him like the palace exam. ”

Huang Zhongyin never thought that the emperor would take the school to see if Han Si could read or not, so he couldn't help but ask, "What about the book that the emperor rewarded you?" ”

"Here!" Xiao Shandong hurriedly picked up the book.

Huang Zhongyin took the book and flipped through a few pages, then raised his head and said with a smile: "Zhixing, the emperor watched you write with his own eyes, and gave you a book to let you learn by heart, so that you are not a protégé of the Son of Heaven?" ”

"Brother Yongzhu, don't make fun of me, I'm not a Jinshi, what kind of disciple am I!"

Ji Yunfei reacted, took the book and said meaningfully: "Zhixing, Brother Yonghui is not joking with you, let alone making fun of you. Hurry up to the thanksgiving fold, hurry up and cook the raw rice into mature rice, and after the thanksgiving fold, you are the protégé of the Son of Heaven. ”

"Brother Bowen, I just came out of the Old Summer Palace. And if you really do that, won't it be like kicking your nose in the face? ”

"Listen to me about this, don't miss the opportunity and don't come again, let alone kick your nose in the face, the emperor will definitely not blame you for this."

"But ......"

How could Wu Zhaoling not know the good intentions of Huang Zhongyin and Ji Yunfei, and couldn't help laughing: "Zhixing, don't be stupid, others don't have this opportunity to kick their noses in the face." You must know that the emperor is the honor of the Ninety-Five, and he speaks of the mandate of heaven and follows the law! Although it is not explicitly said that you will be accepted as a student, but it not only examines your knowledge but also rewards you with books and makes you work hard, which is the fact that there are teachers and students although there is no name of teachers and students! Not only will the emperor not blame you, but he will feel funny, and even if this matter is spread, no one will laugh at you, but it will be passed on as a beautiful talk. ”

"Really?"

"What are you lying to!" Wu Zhaoling smiled, turned around and said, "Brother Yongzhuo, Brother Bowen, how to write this excerpt, you two have to help Zhixing consider it, and let Zhixing copy it after it is written." The emperor has seen the words of Zhixing, and it is not appropriate to let others write on the fold. ”
