Chapter 1237: Xing Qiao'er's Godhusband
Li Yan's eyes widened as he looked at Xing Qiao'er and Gao Jie, and looked at them for a while before asking, "Is it true?" β
Being stared at by Li Yan like this, Rao is Gao Jie and Xing Qiao'er had already prepared in their hearts, and they couldn't help but blush.
Gao Jie's face was relatively thin, and he lowered his head after a few words, but Xing Qiao'er was much bolder, only to see her blushing slightly and protesting: "That's right, we are indeed getting better." There is nothing that can't be seen, the slave family was originally robbed by Li Zicheng, the slave family's father and those subordinates all died under the butcher's knife of the rogue, is it possible to make the slave family die for that Li Zicheng? β
Li Yan couldn't help but be dumbfounded, the Chinese people have always paid attention to the hatred of killing their father, Xing Qiaoer's father and the servants in the family all died at the hands of thieves, and now take the opportunity to backhand Li Zicheng Isn't it normal?
"Okay, Li Zanhua, Miss Xing was able to understand the righteousness and return so much silver taels of grain for the imperial court, which can be described as immeasurable. Besides, it is natural to avenge the father, and there is nothing wrong with that. β
When Yang Feng said this, Li Yan was also a little embarrassed, and hugged his fists and said: "Mrs. Gao, I'm really embarrassed, it's Li Yan's rudeness." It is loyalty for the lady to abandon the secret and serve the court, and it is filial piety to avenge her father, so Li Yan naturally has no reason to question such a matter of loyalty and filial piety. β
"Well, don't praise them."
Yang Feng interrupted him with a smile.
"The two of them can not only abandon the darkness and turn to the light, but also send such a generous gift, if the prince does not reward it again, it will seem that the court is stingy, so ......"
Yang Feng pondered for a moment and asked, "Now the two of you will first listen to the order under the command of this duke, and temporarily appoint Gao Jie as a guerrilla general." The 3,000 soldiers brought by the two of you are also under your command, and the grain and baggage are also temporarily allocated by the duke, and they will be arranged after the reward of the imperial court is completed, what do you two think? β
Gao Jie stood up and was about to thank him, but Xing Qiao'er next to him preemptively said: "The concubine has thanked Grandpa Guo for Gao Lang first, but the concubine still has something to ask for, and I hope that Grandpa Guo will agree." β
"Oh...... Mrs. Gao has something to do, but it doesn't hurt to say it. Yang Feng said very kindly.
Although Xing Qiaoer is not recorded in the history books because of the relationship between women, no matter which record has a very high evaluation of her, Xing Qiaoer has studied, not only is she literate and hyphenation but also good at financial management, not only that, she is also quite discerning, and often gives advice to Gao Ming, in another time and space, Gao Jie, a person from a rogue background, can be given a happy uncle, which is the result of Xing Qiaoer's advice behind the scenes.
I saw Xing Qiao'er saluting Yang Feng before saying, "So that Grandpa Guo will know that my husband and wife came to the court this time, although it is because they are not used to seeing thieves doing evil and causing trouble to the people, but there is also a very important reason, that is, I admire the prestige of Grandpa Guo."
Over the years, the grandfather of the country has been famous for the imperial court's southern and northern wars, and the entire Ming Dynasty is known to everyone, and the slave family is a female stream, but also understands the truth that good birds choose trees to perch, if the grandfather of the country does not give up, my wife and I are willing to follow you under the command of the grandfather of the country, and I implore the grandfather of the country for permission. β
"Join the Jiangning Army?"
Yang Feng looked at Xing Qiao'er with some surprise, this woman once again broke his perception of her. He glanced at Xing Qiao'er solemnly, and said in a deep voice: "Mrs. Gao can look up to Jiang Ningjun like this, my father is deeply honored.
However, the Jiangning Army is not like the ordinary Ming Army, not only has strict military regulations, but also often has to fight for the country, once it enters the Jiangning Army, the danger is much greater than that of ordinary court officers and soldiers.
Moreover, after joining the Jiangning Army, the 3,000 soldiers and horses brought by the two of you will also have to be re-evaluated, and only those who pass can enter the Jiangning Army. In the end, you have to be redistributed after being dispersed, so do you two still want to join the Jiangning Army? β
"This ......"
Gao Jie hesitated when he heard this, if he wanted to join the Jiangning Army, not only would the 3,000 people under his command have to be re-assessed, but even if the assessment was successful, they would have to be dispersed to various units of the Jiangning Army, and he would not be very happy when he heard it.
He was about to speak, but Xing Qiao'er preemptively said: "If you return to China, my husband and wife have already decided, that is, they want to join the Jiangning Army, even if Gao Lang starts from a new big soldier, he is willing." β
Yang Feng sighed secretly in his heart, but said to Gao Jie solemnly: "Do you think the same way?" β
Gao Jie hesitated for a moment, just glanced at Xing Qiao'er, who was staring at him with a little tracheitis, he could only honestly bow his head: "I think so about my humble position, I am willing to join the command of my grandfather!" β
After taking a deep look at the couple, Yang Feng said: "Okay, in that case, you and your wife will go back first, and tomorrow they will bring the people into the city, break up the team again, and prepare for the assessment." β
"Yes, obey the orders of Grandpa Guo!"
After Gao Jie and Xing Qiaoer thanked Yang Feng, they said goodbye and left.
Looking at the figure of the two leaving, Li Yan sighed lightly, "This Mrs. Gao has means and vision, she is really a heroine among women." β
The two of them returned to the camp outside the city, and Gao Jie asked very puzzled: "Madam, didn't Grandpa Guo just say that he is willing to ask the court for us to take credit, why do you have to join the Jiangning Army with one mind, isn't it good for us to be officials elsewhere?" β
"Of course not."
Xing Qiao'er rolled her eyes at Gao Jie and asked rhetorically, "Do you know what is the most important thing about being an official in the imperial court?" β
Gao Jie scratched his head: "The most important? Maybe it's the emperor's trust? β
"Wrong!"
Xing Qiaoer said solemnly: "It's standing in line!" β
"Our Ming officials are divided into civil officials and military attachΓ©s, civil officials have fellow villagers, the same year, fellow friends, the same party, etc., civil officials rely on these links to advance and retreat together to help each other, and those military attaches and nobles rely on hundreds of years of mutual marriage and other ways to warm each other.
If not, even if he becomes an official, I am afraid that this official will not be long in office, and on the day he gets rid of it, he will be caught by the pigtails, disgraced and dismissed, and kicked back to his hometown to farm.
The two of us are just from a rogue background, although now we have sent Li Zicheng's grain, grass and silver to the imperial court, although we have made great contributions, and the imperial court is likely to give you a high-ranking official, but have you thought about it, our background is not naturally treated by those orthodox civil and military officials, after you become this official, can you really sit firmly?
If there is anything going on in the future, have you ever thought about who will help us? β
After Xing Qiao'er said this, Gao Jie suddenly realized: "I understand, you want to become a person who becomes Grandpa Guo by joining the Jiangning Army, and completely shelters under Grandpa Guo." β
"You're not too stupid after all." Xing Qiao'er glanced at him with disgust.
