Chapter 161: Guarding the Chronic Disease (6)
The dereliction of duty of the Tiren guards was quickly dealt with. Outside the Jinde Palace, the Qin descendants read out the will of the prince to the chief historian and the civil and military officials of the left guard.
Yu Ruzhen, the acting commander of the left guard, was not strict in commanding the troops, and was fined for half a year for negligence. He asked to tell the old man, but the prince was not allowed, and he was allowed to take a leave of absence for half a year, and the posthumous position was temporarily replaced by Song Zhenzong;
Yin Jialin, a thousand households, was responsible for the palace ban and guards, was derelict in his duties, fined for half a year, exempted from the current position, and his posthumous office was temporarily replaced by Liu Lian of 100 households;
Huang Sui and the other four guards were dismissed as one, abolished as white, and sent the guard platoon of the Shizi Mansion for probation and drill.
In addition, the left guard will be arrogant and lazy, negligent in the battle formation, and there are more Liu Duzhong and other rebellion deeds in the front, and the special order is the right chief of the Shi Division, Shi Zheng Anmin, and Shu Guoping, a member of Luzhou, as the left guard and deputy supervisor, and the left guard will be rectified.
As for the little eunuch who committed the crime together, he didn't mention the will. There is still one thing that is not mentioned in the will, that is, although the guard platoon has not yet been replenished, it has been expanded into a guard company. The cadres of the guard company are still the original commanders Wei Chen and Li Mingshi, but according to the rules of the caravan, two company supervisors have been added. The main supervisor is Cheng Xiangfeng, the chief secretary of Zhu Pingjin, and the deputy supervisor is Li Sixian, Zhu Pingjin's little eunuch.
As soon as Zhu Pingjin's order was issued, the officers and soldiers of the left guard immediately interpreted it according to their own ideas.
The more unanimous view is that because of Liu Quanzhong's rebellion, the left guard has lost the trust of the Shu Palace, and the status of the prince's soldiers for more than two hundred years has been in jeopardy, and I am afraid that the rewards at the end of the year will be cancelled. If the left guard doesn't do a few things to save it, the palace will be angry and will offer back the guard to the court. During the Yongle period, it was because of an accident in the guard, impeached by the government, Emperor Taizongwen sent the imperial history to investigate, and the king of Shu Xian had no choice but to offer the middle and right two guards in order to protect himself, so the palace now only has one left guard.
The palace disposed of Yu Ruzhen and Yin Jialin, two old men in the left guard, which made the officers in the guard even more worried.
Although Yu Ruzhen held a higher official position, he rarely interacted with other officers on weekdays, and always wrote his books in his room. Wan Jialin is different. It turned out that when Liu Qianzhong was in charge of the seal, he was one of the few people in Weili who really did things. The city is in charge of the guards, and the outside of the city is in charge of the tuntian. The thief knocked on the city, and he led the troops on duty, so busy that he was going around, rubbing Liu Fatzi's ass everywhere. Therefore, the prince ordered that night, several officers who had been friends with him gathered at Yin Jialin's house near Dongmenli to fight for him.
But after three rounds of drinking, everyone's words have already been said, and Yin Jialin still drinks with a strained face.
The middle-aged man in Yin Jialin's left hand couldn't help it, and slammed the wine glass on the table.
"Boss Yin, you have a word! The brothers are all worthless because of you, and they are angry, so they came to you, the boss! You're good! The jar is empty, and I haven't heard you say a word! What the hell is going on? What will the brothers do in the future? When you're the boss, you always have to say something! β
The middle-aged man who spoke was delicate and elegant, wearing a robe that scribes often wear. If you hadn't listened to him speak rudely and bluntly, you would never have thought that he was a soldier. His name is Yang Neng, and he is also a hereditary thousand-household, who leads a fortune in Weili, but he opened an inn and a restaurant near the east gate, and he also relied on the relationship in Weili to open a small dart game. The third and other dart masters who followed Li Chongwen to Renshou County turned out to be all in his dart game. Who knew that Lu San and the others would never return, and his dart business immediately collapsed.
"That's it!" The bearded man who sat first on Yin Jialin's right hand also slapped the table hard. This bearded man's name is Feng Ruhu, as his name suggests, and his sex is like a tiger. He is the hereditary deputy Qianhu, and he is in charge of the guard of the carrier gate.
"The Song brothers were originally just down-and-out foreign soldiers, but it was you, Elder Yin, who vigorously overrode public opinion and included them in the guard! Liu Lianzhi turned out to be a farmer in the field, and because of his surname Liu, he barely made up for hundreds of households! NOW IT'S GOOD, SONG ZHENZONG HAS TAKEN OVER AS THE COMMANDER, AND LIU LAME (QUE) IS EVEN MORE OUTRAGEOUS, EVEN ON BEHALF OF THOUSANDS OF HOUSEHOLDS. A cripple is a thousand households? Little brother, I can't figure it out! β
"Brothers can't figure it out, and I can't figure it out either!" Yin Jialin bowed to the slightly younger and more literate man, and put down his chopsticks. His name is Wu Yuankang, a hereditary deputy Qianhu, and he is in charge of the Zunyi Gate where Zhu Pingjin often goes out.
"We don't care about fame and fortune. If we care, we will follow Liu Fatzi back then! Liu Fatzi and his party conspired against each other to die, and that was their own fault. But the little brother didn't expect that those of us who didn't go with Liu Fatzi didn't end up well! Big brother, it is said in the house that the prince is a virtuous king who comes out of the Shu Mansion once in three hundred years, what do you think of the prince? β
A few rude military attachΓ©s, you and I finally finished what they wanted to express. Yin Jialin drank to himself, and finally poured all the remaining liquid in the jar into his cup.
As soon as the bottom of the glass lit up, a mouthful of soju poured into his throat, and a hot sensation came from his stomach.
Enough!
He threw the cup to the ground.
Syllable!
The cup is crushed to pieces.
Big brother is going crazy?
The three of them looked at each other.
Suddenly, Yin Jialin held the Eight Immortals table with both hands, leaned back against the official hat chair, raised his head and laughed loudly. The small hall of the Yin family, which had not been cleaned for a long time, was shocked by this laughter, and a few grains of dust fell on the beams and floated into the food on the table.
"Boss Yin, you've drunk too much!" Yang Neng shook his head and stood up, "Fortunately, the little brother was prepared and asked the cook to make a yellow plum decanting soup in advance." Old Wu, you bend down, right under your feet in the food box. β
Yin Jialin laughed so hard that he choked, and half a crispy peanut squirted out of his nostrils. This peanut rice is a rare dish, because the lockdown city can't buy fresh vegetables, Yang Neng personally cooked and fried one.
Yin Jialin waved his hand in the air, meaning that he was not drunk, and then knocked on the table again, meaning that he was finally going to speak.
"Thanks to the brothers, good wine and good food!" Yin Jialin arched his hand to the bare beams, "Thanks to the manifestation of the ancestors, the grace of heaven is mighty!" I, Yin Jialin, have been in the nest for half my life, and now I finally have good luck! β
"Good luck?" The eyes of the three brothers widened.
"Contemptible people are not actually dismissed! The contemptible new position is the temporary deputy battalion commander of the second battalion of the caravan. Actually, it's to be a soldier! β
The voice on the table exploded.
"I said I wasn't drunk!" Wu Yuankang muttered in a low voice and bent down to open the lid of the food box.
"I'll tell you, what the prince said to me in the Jinde Hall today, you will understand after listening to it!" Yin Jialin's tongue was a little knotted, so he could still hear clearly.
Feng Ruhu wanted to interject, but Yang Neng slapped him on the head, so he had to shut up.
"The prince left me and Master Yu alone to talk in the morning. Yu Lao Er said that he was not the material to lead the soldiers, and he didn't want to lead the troops, he really wanted to sue the old man and return home. The prince said, if you want to sue the old man, you have to finish the left guard before leaving! Shizi asked Yu Lao Er what he was doing when he went home, and Yu Lao Er actually twisted like an old lady. The prince of the world lowered his face to scare him, if you don't tell the truth, I will cure you for the crime of bullying the king! That Yu Lao Er couldn't, so he had to say it. β
Yu Ruzhen was the second eldest in the family, and his eldest brother died young, so it was his turn to take the post. The Weili people called him the second child behind his back, which not only meant being the second in line, but also had an implied contempt.
"Say what? Big brother, what did Yu Lao Er say? Feng Ruhu was the most anxious, and he hit Yang Neng with chopsticks.
"He said he was making a pump! A few years ago, his son Xiao Yu didn't know whether he was from Beijing or Zhejiang, and brought him a book, called "Strange Instrument Diagram". Yu Lao Er looked at it and went crazy, and then planned to make one himself. Phew! He said outside that he wrote books. A guard came out, he Yu Lao Er couldn't even pass the Tongsheng exam, how many catties and taels we don't know? β
"That's it!" Yang Neng followed Yin Jialin's words, hoping that he would hurry up and talk about it.
"Who knows, Shizi immediately became interested, took out a quill, and asked Yu Lao Er to draw the pumping machine, that Yu Lao Er ......"
Yang Neng's merchant instinct was revived in an instant. He hurriedly interrupted Yin Jialin's words: "Big brother, the younger brother has used sheep hair, wolf hair, and has also heard of fetal brushes, but I have never heard of goose hair......"
Now he was guilty of public outrage.
Yin Jialin ignored him and continued to blow to his brothers: "The prince saw the picture of Yu Laoer, and then said to him, you are too backward!" Then Shizi took out a quill pen and drew two pictures. One is called a centrifugal pump, and the other is called a plunger pump. Shizi said that centrifugal pumping is fast and the price is high; The plunger type is simple and cheap, and the pressure head is high, but the pumping is too slow, and only one in and one out can produce a tube of water. Shizi also said that if you want to pump the water without being pulled by people, you can also drive it with water wheels and windmills. β
The businessman's instinct made Yang Neng uncontrollable. He sprang up and shouted, "What about the two pictures?" β
Yin Jialin glanced at him strangely: "Of course, in Yu Lao's second-hand life, the prince said ......"
Yang Neng snorted in pain, frowned his eyes and grinned, and slammed his left palm with a fist with his right hand.
"Big brother, little brother knows that you didn't look at the picture carefully! If you think about it, the palace even has a secret method of refining gold and silver, and the prince himself drew a pump, and there must be many mechanisms in it! If the younger brother gets the secret map, he will make it as it is, and then stand on the street and shout......"
"You are also a pro-soldier for generations, and you still have the rank of a thousand households!" Wu Yuankang couldn't listen to it anymore, so he teased: "Why can't you just come to the door to ask the prince for it?" β
"Brother Wu, as you know, the second brother has not been on duty for more than ten years, and he has long been an old man...... People are old and yellow! If I rush to beg for ......" Yang Neng's words were said to Wu Yuankang, but his eyes looked at Yin Jialin.
"Okay, do you want to hear it?" Yin Jialin slapped the table angrily, "Old Yang, don't worry! I'll go find Lao Yu. If he doesn't give it, the eldest brother will help you play! β
"Little brother, thank you, big brother!" Yang Neng smiled.
