Chapter 60: Wei Tongzhi
Zhu Shaochen poked his head out of the car window, although it was still quite far away, but he could already see the city gate of Xuanwuwei.
On the wooden sign hanging on the city gate, the word 'Xuanwu' is still written.
The car continued to walk forward, and after a while, it arrived at the gate of Xuanwuwei.
From a distance, the city gate was unguarded.
When I looked closer, I realized that the two guards were lazy and were sitting by the gate.
At this moment, the two of them are sitting on the ground and picking their feet, chatting.
Looking at this scene, Zhu Shaochen thought that this was too scattered. But it's a good thing.
"Keep going. Go directly to the Commanding Embassy's Mansion. Zhu Shaochen said to Lu Jiao'er.
The two soldiers guarding the gate also saw the convoy coming towards the city gate.
Instinctively, they hurriedly put on their shoes, stood up with the weapons in their hands, and shouted, "Where did you come from?" ”
The tiger is vigorous, but it is the same as just now, which looks quite like that.
"Zhang Guanglu, Li Zhaosheng, it's me. Get out of the way, and let us in. ”
Xu Jin jumped out of the car behind him at this time, and hurriedly called out the names of the two soldiers guarding the door.
"Oh, it turned out to be Xu Baihu. Have you gotten the money? I came back so early. Did you bring some for me Lao Zhang? ”
The tall man named Zhang Guanglu looked at the four-wheeled vehicles in the row behind him and said excitedly.
He probably thought that Xu Jin had brought twenty cars to give gifts.
Another soldier saw that the twenty carts did not look like loaded trucks. hurriedly stopped in front of Zhu Shaochen's car.
"Something is wrong! Brother Xu, where did you get these cars? ”
After the other soldier named Li Zhaosheng finished speaking, he was going to get in the car to check.
"There are distinguished guests, idle people, etc. in the car, and they are not allowed to break in."
Ni Poyu hurriedly pulled out his saber and stopped it directly in front of Li Zhaosheng.
Then Li Zhao was so angry that he couldn't do it.
"Yo! played sideways, until our Xuanwuwei came. Heh......"
That Li Zhaosheng said with his mouth, but he didn't dare to take another step into the thunder pool.
"This official, don't be angry yet. It's all the rules. ”
That Zhang Guanglu looked at Ni Poyu's decoration as an officer, and knew that the person who followed Xu in was also not good, so he didn't dare to say more.
Most of them are rescuers moved by Xu Jin. Ni Poyu's white dangling knife glittered silver in the sun.
That Li Zhaosheng raised his weapon at this time, and also gestured towards Ni Poyu. But his gun, even the tip of the gun was rusty.
Compared with Ni Poyu's shiny waist knife, there is no comparison.
At this time, a group of sergeants who were patrolling in the distance saw that there was a situation here, and hurriedly pulled out their sabers and rushed here.
The leader was also an officer, and at this time shouted: "What for? ”
Ni Poyu didn't say a word, and with a wave of his hand, all the guards of the palace and the palace got out of the car.
They all drew their weapons and ran towards the city gate.
The officer was relieved to see that the people who came were all wearing Daming's military uniforms.
"Which part of you are? Below is Xuanwuwei and Zhizhang Jinwei. ”
When Ni Poyu heard this, the leading military academy turned out to be a guard commander and a fellow intellectual, this is an officer from the third grade.
Although the status of the Ming military attache is low, this person is not low in terms of rank.
"Lord Zhang, the lower official is polite here, but please forgive the inconvenience of revealing the identity of the lower official." Ni Poyu replied with his fists clenched.
Ni Poyu is just the staff of the palace guard department, and the staff is just a military attache of the sixth grade. In terms of grade, he is actually the same as Xu Jin, and Baihu is also an official of the sixth grade.
Normally, the palace guards are not allowed to go out of the city gate easily, so Ni Poyu is reluctant to tell his identity.
The officer was reluctant to reveal his identity when he saw Ni Poyu, but everyone who came was wearing a Ming military uniform, and he was afraid that his superiors came down to inspect it.
But after all, Xuanwuwei is the city of Weisuo, so the rules that should be followed still have to be followed.
"No matter who you are, since you are here, you have to report it, you don't know what you want to come to me to Xuanwuwei?"
At this time, Zhang Tongzhi saw Xu Jin hiding behind people, and immediately understood most of it.
“…… Master Zhang ...... "Xu Jin saw Zhang Tongzhi, and only then did he come over to salute.
Zhang Tongzhi looked at Xu Jin, and the two were obviously familiar with each other. Zhang Jinwei looked at Xu Jin with a sympathetic look on his face at this time, and then said, "...... Come on...... It's your own person, let's go in. ”
Zhang Jinwei waved his hand and said, "Don't make things too big." Besides, it's okay for a few of you to go in, but not with so many soldiers. ”
After speaking, Zhang Jinwei got out of the way.
Xu Jin hurriedly took Zhu Shaochen and them inside. After Xu Jin and the four of them went in, plus the brothers Zhu Shaochen and Zhu Shaoli, as well as Murong Shanshan, who was dressed as a man. The rest of the palace guards were stopped.
That chapter Tongzhi obviously didn't let them in. Most of them are also afraid of making trouble.
Ni Poyu also wanted to keep up, but he was also stopped by him and didn't let him enter again. After all, wearing a military uniform, that chapter Tongzhi naturally wouldn't let him in.
After all, this is someone's military camp, Zhu Shaochen waved his hand, telling Ni Poyu not to worry, and Ni Poyu stopped.
"Yes, my subordinates have thanked Master Tongzhi." Xu Jin walked inside for a while, then turned around and saluted Zhang Jinwei.
"This chapter is also a good person?" Zhu Shaochen looked at Zhu Shaoli and said puzzled.
"Third brother, people can't be good-looking. Besides, I'll tell you why. The commander of this guard was a rogue official, and he was appointed by the imperial court. But Tongzhi is hereditary, and this Tongzhi and Xu Jin are both hereditary officials, so they have known each other for a long time. ”
Zhu Shaoli has studied military books for many years, so he naturally knows everything about military affairs. Of course, at this time, you can also show off with Zhu Shaochen.
"But wasn't that commander originally a member of this guard?" Zhu Shaochen then asked.
"That's why the commander is afraid that he will lose the morale of the army." Zhu Shaoli replied.
Zhu Shaochen said secretly, I see. It seems that the commander has indeed gone a little too far. Even his subordinates refused to obey him.
The group entered the Xuanwu Acropolis, which is a guard city, although it is small, but there should be no one in the city.
The blacksmith shop in the city is much larger than that in Kaifeng City, after all, it is the place where the armor of the guard is produced.
The sword made by Xuanwuwei still has a lot of sales in Kaifeng City. The sword is a weapon that can be carried by the people, and the knife is the weapon that is controlled.
Even 'Wo Fengyuan' has swords made by Xuanwuwei for sale.
The highest governor in the city is the commander of the guard, and in this guardhouse city, he belongs to the official who is in charge of the army on the horse and the people on the horse.
The city was inhabited by military households, and these hereditary military households, except for those who served in the guards, were engaged in farm work in the territory of the guards.
Zhu Shaochen also heard in this era that military households basically cannot leave their nationality.
From the time of Zhu Yuanzhang to the present Wanli year, military households are military households. The Ming Dynasty is such a country that abides by the ancestral system.
The military households are actually behind the peasants, and their status is the same as that of the craftsmen, but it is higher.
It stands to reason that most military households should have their own land. But in a disaster year, there are always some people who will sell their land. Therefore, there are many landless people in the military households. Hundreds of households like Xu Jin have more or less such a situation.
