When Jia Ke heard similar words just now as he had just heard a few years ago, not only did he not get angry, but he felt a little kind. Thinking that when I first came to the gate of the Jiedu Embassy a few years ago, I was also reprimanded by the guards at the door. But now that he is about to become the owner of this mansion, there is a special feeling in his heart.

Jia Ke looked at the kneeling on the ground, and several people looked sincerely frightened, and did not blame them, but said to them: "You don't have to be afraid, it is your duty to ask just now." What's at fault? Hurry up and return to their positions, don't mess with the rules of the Jiedu Embassy. ”

When these soldiers heard Jia Ke say this, they dared to stand up, and then quickly stood on both sides of the Jiedu Embassy, one by one, they stood tall and tried to pretend to be more majestic, so as to leave a good impression in front of the Jiedu Envoy.

Jia Ke saw that they were all in their original positions, so he turned over and dismounted, and ordered people to open the main gate of the Jiedu Embassy, and then entered the Jiedu Embassy from the main gate.

Liu Yu and other soldiers followed Jia Ke into the Jiedu Embassy, and the Jiedu Embassy was already in chaos at this time, and Wang Tao's servants were preparing to move.

When these people saw Jia Ke and others entering the Jiedu Envoy's Mansion, they all looked at Jia Ke led by them with curious eyes, but then they understood that this person was the new Jiedu Envoy. As a result, many people showed indignant expressions on their faces. He paid no more attention to them, and went off to his own work.

Jia Ke saw the expressions of these servants clearly, but he didn't get angry, after all, this is human nature, these people are servants in the Jiedu Embassy, and they can almost walk sideways in Xuanfu Town, but once they return to the countryside, they are just servants of ordinary rich families, and Jia Ke also understands the difference.

Soon after Jia Ke entered the main hall of the Jiedu Envoy, Wang Tao came from the back house, at this time the two people met, quite embarrassed, the relationship between the two people over the years, from friendship to enemy, I don't know whose fault it is.

Jia Ke still spoke first: "Lord Wang, we meet again. ”

"Yes, we met again, but the position of host and guest was reversed, and now you are the owner of this mansion, and I am a guest." Wang Tao said with resentment.

Jia Ke was not angry at his cynicism, but said flatly: "Since ancient times, the king has been defeated and defeated, and Wang Jiedu has forgotten the bravery of the year over the years, how can he not be defeated?" If Wang Jiedu's envoy still enters the grassland as he did back then, I'm afraid that you will be the one who is the marquis now. ”

Wang Tao sneered disdainfully and said, "You are still too young to know the danger. Do you really think that the grassland is so easy to go, the 30,000 cavalry who followed me into the grassland back then were only 8,000 when they returned. This time, you just took advantage of the weakness to win by chance, and if you take this victory as normal, you will suffer in the future. ”

Jia Ke said to him calmly: "What's the use of talking about this now? Or hurry up and hand over the big seal, and save each other's troubles. ”

Wang Tao heard Jia Ke say this, and didn't say anything more, just pointed to the table in the lobby and said, "Everything you want is there, do you want me to bring the account book to you to look at again." I heard that when you first arrived in Kaipingwei, you killed the master book because of the account book, do you want to kill me today? ”

Jia Ke didn't pay attention to him, but walked to the big case, and carefully examined it, on which were placed the big seal of the Xuanfu Town Jiedu envoy, as well as eighteen arrows. These things are the proof that Jia Ke is in charge of Xuanfu Town.

As soon as Jia Ke waved his hand, Liu Yu came up from behind, took all the big seals and tokens, and put them close to him.

And Wang Tao watched Jia Ke's subordinates put away all the big seals and tokens, and the muscles on his face couldn't help twitching a few times. These things have been kept by his side for more than ten years, and now they suddenly belong to others, and the discomfort in his heart is incomprehensible to others.

Jia Ke put away the big seal and token, turned around, and said to Wang Tao: "My lord is busy with housework these days, so I won't bother, and the lord of this festival will live first, so you don't have to be in a hurry to move." When the new house is ready, it's never too late to go. ”

After Jia Ke finished speaking, he walked out, and at this time Wang Tao spoke, "Wait a minute, I want to ask what I did wrong?" Why did a great future be ruined in just a few years? ”

Jia Ke didn't look back, just turned his back and said: "Your biggest problem is that you can't be single-minded, if you can do it wholeheartedly according to Gao Hong's words at that time, although you offended Wenchen, but with our Rongguo Mansion and the King of Jingying Festival, there will be nothing to think about, but you are dizzy, and you will fight with me for a little profit, then for the sake of the relationship with our Jiafu, Lord Wang will not help you." Then the whole court is your enemy, will this festival make you still work long? ”

Wang Tao listened to Jia Ke's words, was silent for a long time, and finally said: "I regret not listening to Gao Hong's words to have me today, and fortunately, I can have today without listening to Gao Hong's words, otherwise I am afraid that I will die in the future and have no place to hide." ”

When Jia Ke heard this, he remembered Fan Kang's evaluation of Gao Hong, who was good at using poisonous schemes, and the people who were counted hated him to the core, and he was afraid that he would not be able to save himself. If Wang Tao had been following Gao Hong's strategy, although he would have been able to stay in the position of the Jiedu envoy for the time being, there would be more and more people who hated him. When it erupts, it will be irrepressible, and then it will not be a matter of demotion and resignation, I am afraid that there are countless people who want his life.

Jia Ke couldn't help but sigh, not knowing whether Wang Tao's choice was right or wrong.

Jia Ke also stopped staying, and went directly out of the Jiedu Embassy and returned to the military camp outside the city with all the soldiers.

Jia Ke stayed in the barracks outside the city for three days, and someone came to report that Wang Tao had taken his family out of Xuanfu Town and returned to his hometown.

Jia Ke took people again and returned to the Jiedu Embassy, which was already in shambles. Except for the house, all that could be moved were moved. Those who couldn't move were all smashed.

Jia Ke stood there with a helpless wry smile, and the two sides didn't seem to have such a big hatred. As for making it like this?

However, Jia Ke thinks from the perspective of the winner, in Wang Tao's view, Jia Ke and him have a deep hatred like the sea. If it weren't for Jia Ke, he would still be in the position of the Jiedu envoy now.

Jia Ke saw that this mansion could not be lived in for the time being, so he had to tell Qian Mao to clean it up quickly, not asking for how luxurious it was. Otherwise, he would always live in the barracks, and he would not be able to do many things.

And the barracks are full of men, and it is inconvenient for these maids in his house to live in it after all, although no one has harassed them these days, but every time they go out to do errands, there are always a bunch of strong men watching. Let these maids be scared one by one.

The money trade housekeeper is still very reliable, coupled with the stuttering of people from all walks of life in Xuanfu Town, it almost took only one day, not only the sundries have been cleaned up, but all the furniture has been replaced with new ones, and the festival has made the mansion look new.

This is the benefit of power, many things don't need to be opened at all, as long as it is a hint, naturally there are many people rushing to help you get things done.

Jia Ke did not choose any auspicious day of the zodiac, but lived in it the day after cleaning up the Jiedu Envoy Mansion and became the real rightful Xuanfu Town Jiedu Envoy.

On the second day after Jia Ke moved into the Jiedu Embassy, he began to summon all the civil and military officials of Xuanfu Town to come to discuss the matter, and the commanders of Xuanfu Town and its nearby passes, as well as the county commanders of the prefect of Xuanfu Town, were all recruited to the Jiedu Embassy.

When Jia Ke came to the lobby of the Jiedu Embassy, there were already more than a dozen commanders standing below, and the deputy commanders were already the highest level of Xuanfu Town, and on the side of the military attache stood all the civil officials who had entered Xuanfu Town.

Jia Ke sat on the tiger skin chair in the center, looking at all the unfamiliar faces below. Suddenly, he remembered someone, that is, the commander He Tong who had sent him new recruits the year before, and found that he was not among them.

Jia Ke asked, "Why didn't Commander He come?" ”

After Jia Ke asked this question, none of the people below knew how to answer. In the end, it was He Tong's friend and deputy commander Wang Wei who stood up and said to Wang Ke: "Lord Qiqi, He Tong was martyred last year. ”

Jia Ke was shocked when he heard this, and asked, "When did it happen?" ”

Wang Wei continued to bow down and said, "It was when the Tatar soldiers besieged Xuanfu Town last year. In order to divert the attention of the Tatars, so that the dead soldiers could break through the encirclement and ask for help, He Tong was ordered by Wang Tao, the former envoy of Jiedu, to attack the Tatar camp at night with a small number of soldiers and horses, but he did not return. The body was returned the next day by the Tatars, who had been hit by dozens of arrows, and even the intestines had already flowed out, and he was still fighting to the death with his waist coiled around his waist. The Tatars admired his bravery and sent his body back to the city. ”

When Jia Ke heard this, a lifetime of sadness rose in his heart, and he also admired this He Tong very much, if it was him Jia Ke encountered this situation, he would have broken out of the encirclement and fled for his life single-handedly. Where will you buy time for others and hurt your own life.

Jia Ke praised He Tong's experience, and then continued to ask Wang Wei: "Then where is his family now, the imperial court can have a pension." ”

Wang Wei replied respectfully: "He Tong's wife, Li, has taken his body back to his hometown for burial, the imperial court has issued his pension, and the predecessor Jiedu made Wang Tao collect another 3,000 taels and send it to his house. ”

Jia Ke heard that Wang Tao was involved, this Wang Tao didn't seem to be such a generous person, how could he give him another three thousand taels of silver, this is probably guilty of He Tong.

Jia Ke had already guessed the probability, so he didn't continue to talk about this matter, but directly ordered the people below: "I already know all about you drinking soldiers' blood and eating empty salaries, and I can't care about anything else, but this kind of thing must not happen in Xuanfu Town." From now on you go back and give me all the troops you lack, and I will act as if nothing had happened. After a month, all the soldiers and horses had to be retrained. When the time comes, whoever has a shortage of people, continue to eat empty salaries and drink the blood of soldiers, don't blame me for turning my face and not recognizing people. ”

Jia Ke has always believed that the important reason for the low combat effectiveness of the soldiers in Xuanfu Town is that they were knocked out by these officials. In this way, who is willing to fight to the death. And if these generals encounter a strong enemy in the end, they can only let their own soldiers go up to resist.

In this way, it is almost exactly the same as at the end of the Ming Dynasty on the earth, and at that time, there were only a few family members around the generals who could fight.

Since Jia Ke knew the danger in it, he naturally couldn't let them develop, and he couldn't control it in other places now, but in his own Xuanfu Town, this situation must not occur.
