Chapter 25: Knocking on the Crowd

Zuo Feng sat down with the other little eunuchs, and they looked around curiously.

Zuo Feng drank tea, but his eyes kept looking back and forth at the paintings on the wall.

How can this painting have so many colors, how can it be so realistic.

After a while, the pillar brought boiling water.

Zhang Ming took out a lot of instant noodles from the cabinet.

"Father-in-law Zuo, I'll personally cook you a big meal today."

Tear open the instant noodles, put in the sauce packet, and open two more hams.

Pour boiling water into it and cover.

Several buckets of instant noodles were soaked.

"We'll have to wait a little while, and we'll continue to drink tea."

Zhang Ming poured another cup of tea for Zuo Feng, and Zuo Feng carefully held the cup, afraid that one would accidentally fall to the ground.

The instant noodles were soaking there, and after a while, Zhang Ming pushed the instant noodles in front of Zuo Feng, and then said, "Father-in-law Zuo, you can eat it." ”

Zuo Fenghu doubted, this thing can be eaten by soaking in boiling water?

Still, he tore open the instant noodles.

"It smells so good."

"Oops, it's a little hot."

Zuo Feng began to eat, and it was so fragrant.

After a while, Zuo Feng was full of energy, and the instant noodles sucked in.

"A few fathers-in-law, you also serve them to eat."

There are also eunuchs of lower rank than Zuo Feng, they are not qualified to sit at all, but Zhang Ming also soaked instant noodles for them and let them eat them in their hands.

"Instant noodles can also be added with ham, so it's strange if you can't be stopped." Zhang Ming despised Zuo Feng, who was gobbling up.

After Zuo Feng finished eating the noodles and ham, he even drank up the soup.

"Delicious, delicious."

After eating, Zuo Feng couldn't wait to eat all the instant noodle boxes.

Zhang Ming stood up again and took out a bottle of good wine from the cabinet behind him, as well as two glasses.

The glass is not large, and it is specially used for drinking liquor.

Pour a third and bring it to Zuo Feng.

Zuo Feng was immediately dumbfounded, this good thing, the emperor may not be able to use it.

"Father-in-law Zuo, you can give me this holy decree."

Zuo Feng was about to pick up the wine glass to drink, but who knew that Zhang Ming was looking for him to ask for a holy decree at this time.

Zuo Feng retracted his hand again and didn't go to get the wine glass.

After hesitating for a while, Zuo Feng said, "Bring the holy decree." ”

A little eunuch came up with a gift box containing the holy decree.

Zhang Ming took it and opened it with a big grin.

He pretended to glance at it a few times, and he already knew the contents.

"Hehe, this thing still has to be announced on the spot by my father-in-law when I go into the city with me tomorrow."

Zhang Ming threw the holy decree in the box again, and then said, "Father-in-law Zuo, hurry up and drink, this wine is fragrant." ”

Zuo Feng drank obediently, and as soon as he took his mouth, the whole person was about to float up, this wine was too strong.

Zuo Feng was stunned, he understood that Zhang Ming was a ruthless person, and the holy decrees were thrown away casually, and he had no awe at all.

If Zuo Feng can cooperate well, it will naturally be good wine, and if Zuo Feng does not cooperate, I believe Zhang Ming can do anything.

As for going back and talking in front of the emperor, Zuo Feng was sure that he wouldn't dare.

There are so many treasures in the house, it is easy to take out something casually in exchange for his life.

"Father-in-law Zuo, when you go back, you will have a little souvenir."

Zuo Feng was very happy, although this Zhang Ming was so rebellious that he even dared to throw the holy decree casually, but this person was also on the Tao and knew that he wanted to give benefits.

After inviting Zuo Feng to finish eating, drink wine, and arrange for them to stay in the Zhuangzi first.

"Zhuzi, Liu Daneng, you can't rest yet, immediately organize a team of two thousand people, fully armed, when the time comes, we will ride into Xiangping City, and the rest of the people will still stay in Erlong Mountain and here."

"In addition, spread the news and let them prepare to welcome Lao Tzu."

Zhu Zi and Liu Daneng immediately began to act.

The next day, early in the morning, Zhang Ming tidied up the team on the farmland outside Zhuangzi.

"Let's go, let's go into town."

They didn't say much, but the soldiers were excited, and they were officers and soldiers after entering the city.

Zhang Ming led the army to Xiangping City, just a dozen miles, and walked for about an hour to arrive, if it weren't for the fact that there were a group of dead eunuchs in the team, they would have arrived a long time ago.

When they arrived at the gates, they were opened, and many officials were already there to greet them.

Zhang Ming led the troops directly in, ignored the officials at the city gate, and went directly to the Taishou Mansion.

"This, this, how can this be."

"It's too guarded and unreasonable, and it actually left us all here."

"How can this be reasonable, don't blame us for not cooperating when the time comes."

There are many officials, but there are many more families, and these families have always been the masters of this era.

Zhang Ming and the others took control of the Taishou Mansion, and then waited there.

After waiting for half an hour, a group of officials and a group of families came over.

"Father-in-law Zuo, let's make a decree."

Zuo Feng no longer has the arrogance he used to have, he obediently took out the holy decree, and then pinched his throat.

"Your Majesty has a will, Liaodong Zhangming, loyal and sincere, considerate of the emperor...... Feng is too guarded, not subject to Youzhou moderation, once it should be taxed, it does not have to be paid... Wangzhang Aiqing works hard...."

There are a lot of holy decrees, most of them are boasting, but the two useful sentences are very clear to everyone.

Zhang Ming is the highest leader of Liaodong, and he is not controlled by the Youzhou Mansion, and even the taxes can be kept, although Liaodong does not have much tax.

After announcing the holy decree, Zhang Ming said, "Where is the captain?" ”

"Subordinate Li sighed."

Captain Li sighed, and then said.

Zhang Ming nodded, and then said sharply: "This official heard that thieves are rampant outside the city, why don't you do anything?" ”

"Lord Taishou, it's not that his subordinates are inactive, but that the previous Taishou was incompetent, and after his death, he didn't have any military spending, and his subordinates were really powerless to suppress bandits." Li Si quickly knelt down on one knee and explained.

Zhang Ming nodded, and then said: "Okay, you get up, starting tomorrow, the army will all strengthen training, prepare to suppress bandits, and restore peace to the people of Liaodong." ”

There are still a bunch of families standing below, they are the real bigwigs in Liaodong, and they are inseparable from them to govern the place.

"My lord, I am willing to make a modest contribution to the suppression of bandits, and I am willing to fund 5,000 yuan for military expenses, please send troops immediately to kill the bandits."

It was Xu Chao who came out to speak, and it happened that Zhang Ming knew him.

Zhang Ming is a little funny, it was Lao Tzu who robbed your house, and you let Lao Tzu exterminate himself?

"The affairs of the army, how can you let your gang interfere, this official naturally has arrangements."

Zhang Ming rejected them very bluntly.

A group of people retreated obediently on the surface, but they were not convinced at all.

That Li Si looked at Zhang Ming like a fool, offending these big guys, Zhang Ming would not be able to move an inch, and he would not be able to issue any decrees.

And Zhang Ming didn't seem to realize this.

In this way, Zhang Ming became the master of Liaodong.

Everyone retreated, and even Zuo Feng was arranged to live elsewhere.

Zhang Ming and his four subordinates were there.

Chen Yang, Liu Daneng, Zhu Zi and Liu Gen.
