Chapter 970: Cold Night

Sun Yonger wanted to get something that "had something to say to the top". Therefore, he came to the door of Wang Qian's house in Shenyang Zhongwei again tonight.

The original Daning Dusi Zhuwei has disappeared, and was taken away by Emperor Taizong during the "Battle of Jingyan" and has not recovered. Most of the troops stationed in the near left of the Daning Metropolitan Division are transferred from the Liaodong Metropolitan Division, so this Wang Qian is always the official of the Shenyang Central Guard.

When he was very early, Sun Yonger discovered that there were strange visitors in Wang Qian's mansion. But in this five-grade military attache's mansion, Sun Yonger did not have the order of Jinyiwei to investigate, and he did not dare to touch it easily.

It wasn't until recently, when he got the promise of the Captain of the Jinyi Guard, that he had the courage to think about finding a chance to try. The danger is a little risky, but there is a good saying: wealth and danger are sought.

Sun Yonger was at the street opposite the door, constantly walking in small steps, and it had been a long time. He saw that the door of the house was closed, but it was still quiet.

"Bang, Bang, Bang!" A crisp wooden sound could be heard in the distance. Sun Yongji turned his head and left the street, walked skillfully around the nearby alleys, and when he returned to his place, he heard the sound of the watchman, and he had drifted away.

Sun Yongji continued to pace carefully in the darkness of the street. He couldn't stop, and after three shifts, the cold was almost fatal. He was wearing a thick old cotton jacket, but he still couldn't bear it, and he had to move all the time, so it seemed to feel better. There was no one to be seen on the street, let alone a curfew, even if the government allowed people to go out, and no one was out in the middle of the night in this winter.

Looking back at the street, there was the light of a lantern in the distance, but it looked foggy. The houses on both sides were only hazy black shadows, which were very terrifying.

After a long time, Sun Yonger turned around and walked a little behind, then turned around and entered an alley. He squatted down next to the debris outside the gate of a courtyard, his hands in his sleeves, and the man curled up in a heap, which looked like a pile of debris if he didn't look closely.

After a while, on the street outside the alley, there was the trivial and crisp sound of "clanging" armor grinding, as well as the "crunching" sound of many feet on the snow, and the faint sound of people talking. After waiting for a while, the light at the entrance of the alley suddenly brightened, but no one came into the alley.

When the others outside were far away, Sun Yonger returned to the same place again, pacing carefully, glancing at the door of the house from time to time.

Tonight, I didn't have to wait for work, and finally someone came.

Two people on foot walked straight to the door. Sun Yonger leaned against the brick wall and looked closely, although he couldn't see clearly, he could see that one of them seemed to be Mongolians. The Mongols rode small horses, and their legs were different from those of the Han Chinese, and their walking posture was also slightly different.

The corner door next to the gate opened, and the two of them disappeared silently into the door, as if they had never appeared.

Sun Yonger also left here immediately, he walked straight along the road opposite the Wang family's mansion, walked around quickly, and accurately found a courtyard wall. Sun Yonger waited for a while, then walked to the corner of the wall, immediately jumped up, grabbed the wall with both hands, and turned his body up, and when his feet hooked the wall, the person also flipped up.

In this courtyard, there are a few lanterns. However, Sun Yonger found a corner with a wide line of sight, and squatted there, as long as he didn't move, it was difficult to see that there was someone.

Not long after, Sun Yonger noticed that a small window in the distance suddenly appeared

Bright. It's more late in the middle of the night.

He slowly approached and crouched nearby for a moment. At that moment, he suddenly noticed that there was a man standing under a dead tree outside the door of the house! Sun Yonger was startled and motionless. The man under the tree was also very clever, and instead of standing at the door, he ran and shrank in the snow.

Sun Yonger felt the sound of "dong dong" in his heart, and subconsciously pressed his chest, as if he was afraid that the sound would disturb the people under the tree over there. He quickly adjusted to the light, and saw that the man was standing there with his neck bent, with his back to Sun Yongji.

The appearance of the dark whistle made Sun Yonger very afraid, but Sun Yonger continued to carefully touch the small window. His mind went blank, and he didn't dare to think about what would happen if he was discovered. Fortunately, the dark whistle never turned around during this process.

The small window was very high, and Sun Yonger stood on tiptoe just enough to be able to.

The voices of the people inside could be faintly heard, and there were probably only two people in the room talking.

A voice said: "There may be 30,000 infantry cavalry in the Beijing camp, and it is necessary to transfer troops and recruit soldiers from the various guards of the Liaodong Capital Division, and it is not a problem for the officers and soldiers to gather 70,000 or 80,000 people." The people who led the troops were Wang Bin, Wu Gao, and Chen Zhen, all of whom were duke lords. ”

Another voice said, "Thank you." ”

At first, the voice should have been Mr. Wang Qian, and Mr. Wang Qian said: "Among the people who came together, there is Xue Yan, the secretary of the Criminal Department, and the situation is not quite right." You'd better leave Daning City first, and you'll leave tomorrow, the officers and soldiers are about to arrive in Daning City. ”

The other party said: "Why don't you come with us?" ”

Wang Qian was obviously a little hesitant, and it was quiet for a while. After a while, Mr. Wang Qian's voice said again: "I won't leave." I have a way, don't worry. ”

said something in it, but at this time, the wind suddenly interfered, and Sun Yonger didn't hear it clearly. Sun Yonger didn't dare to stay here for too long, so he turned his head to take a look, and began to find a way to retreat and prepare to slip away. The previous secret whistle was outside the door, and when Sun Yonger left here, he naturally stopped going in that direction.

…… The two people in the room were still sitting together, and Wang Qian didn't say anything at this time.

The Mongols persuaded again: "General Wang will go to our side, and the higher authorities will not treat you badly." ”

When Wang Qian heard this, a smile suddenly appeared on his face, but his inattentive expression quickly disappeared.

He did this, but for the sake of money, he never thought of changing to a faΓ§ade. After all, if you really go to the tribe of the Mongols, what can you get? In Wang Qianzong's imagination, the grassland tribes can't enjoy anything with money; As for the official position, it is even more boring, he is a Han Chinese, and it is not easy to call the Mongols if he has an official position, not to mention the official position in the tribe, can he have the official position of the Ming Dynasty?

"You don't have to worry about me." Wang Qian said, "General He didn't move, so we can still hold on." ”

The Mongol wondered, "What do you mean?" ”

Wang Qian said: "He Hao is the confidant of Cao Yi, the commander of Liaodong, and it is really at a critical juncture, He Hao will be able to get a letter from Cao Du's envoy." Those people in the Liaodong Capital Division, it is not one or two who share the benefits, how can they ignore Daning? ”

After a pause, he continued: "Since the beginning of the year, General He has stopped trading directly with the Uliangha people and has instead called the salt merchants as intermediaries. Judging from this movement, the control of Daning from above has begun to tighten, but it has not yet been put on a big one

The meaning of the crowd to the death. I look, it's a big deal to knock it out, and the people on the tuyere are demoted and fined. ”

The Mongolian nodded and said, "In that case, General Wang should be careful, let's go back first." ”

Mr. Wang Qian got up and walked to the door, opened the door, and called softly under the tree outside: "Old Five, send off." ”

The Mongol also came over, bent down with his hand on his chest, and then said, "General Wang, there will be a time later." ”

Mr. Wang Qian returned the salute with his fists and said, "You guys have a good journey." ”

After the Mongols went out, the people outside silently approached, and the two of them quietly walked south. Mr. Wang Qian looked left and right, then retreated to the door and closed the door with his backhand.

Most of the night has passed, Wang Qianzong's head hurts a little, his body feels very tired, but he has no sleep, and he sits under the lamp for a long time.

Earlier, he spoke very steadily, with a tone of bamboo in his chest, but in fact, his heart has been going up and down. However, since he didn't plan to leave the Daning officialdom, there was no need to show a panicked appearance in front of the Mongols, which was despised and useless.

Wang Qian always worries about a lot of things. First of all, the imperial court sent the nobles and ministers over, and there may not be any movement, and Wang Qian is not sure at all. secondly, his own problems are more serious than those of other generals in Daning; There is still a big difference between the crime of collaborating with the enemy army and doing business without authorization. Even if there is a fluke, Wang Qian always feels that he is unaware, but how can he not be afraid?

But he didn't regret it. General He and others traded with the Uliangha, whether it was illegal or not, and it could even be concluded that the Uliangha would take the goods to the Tatars; When he was rich, General He and the officials of the Liaodong Metropolitan Division ate meat, and Wang Qian and other generals drank some soup. Wang Qian always takes this kind of thing for granted, people have the right to have a way, just give some soup and seal it. So instead of being envious, Wang Qian found a way by himself.

The number of ways to make a fortune, Wang Qian always did it alone; But when it came time to deal with the crisis, he thought about it and decided to join the group. Many people are moving forward and retreating together, and it seems to be more secure.

However, Wang Qian finally had to admit that he was unwilling to move his nest, but the way out was not very good. For example, many Mongols who took refuge in the Ming Dynasty did not seem to be as hesitant and resistant as he was.

He sat there for an unknown amount of time. When the door was gently opened, it was still dark outside.

The man who was called "Lao Wu" came in, and he hugged his fists and said, "Big brother, I've sent people to the place, it's okay." ”

Mr. Wang Qian still asked: "Didn't you meet anyone on the road?" ”

The man said: "There is no one outside at all, it's cold." ”

Wang Qian always exhaled and muttered a little distractedly, "Yes, it's cold...... It's colder at night. ”

He came back to his senses: "You go back and rest first, tomorrow is dawn, you prepare, let's go to General He's side to take a look." ”

The man bent down and said, "Big brother, don't worry too much, and rest early." ”

Mr. Wang Qian nodded, still silently reciting He Hao's name in the room, pondering hard. When the man left, Mr. Wang Qian even read it softly.
