Chapter Ninety-Eight: Sealing the Official

According to the regulations of the Great Xia Dynasty, Zhu Zongchen had already given the emperor a promotion excerpt before, or did the great eunuch Xu Liang help hand it over, can he still be allowed to go back to the fold again?

It's just that Zhu Zongchen was sure that this little young master was a master who didn't know anything about the world, so he deliberately made an appearance to provoke him.

Zeng Ziren didn't change his mind immediately because of his excitement, but he did fall into a huge contradiction.

Sichuan is the commander! That's a feudal official from the third grade, although the word agent is added in front, but in the Great Xia Dynasty, the agent and the main position are not just a matter of excessive time.

The old man wanted to be a chief official many times before his death, but he couldn't get his wish, and this time such a huge black gauze hat was thrown in front of him, which was enough to shake his idea of obeying his "last wish".

Zhu Zongchen looked at the hand in front of him, the corners of his mouth raised lightly, and then slowly put down the pen in his hand, and asked pretending to be puzzled: "Virtuous nephew, what does this mean?" ”

Zeng Ziren didn't say it directly, and asked very tactfully: "I.... I want to ask why you don't take over the position of commander of Nadu yourself, but ..... Rather, recommend the kid? ”

I don't know where Young Master Zeng racked his brains to come up with these two adjectives, and laughed at what Zhu Zongchen said,

Zhu Zongchen picked up the newly exchanged hot tea on the table, poured two sips in front of his face, and also covered up his smiling face by the way, and then changed to a sighing expression and said: "The virtuous nephew doesn't know, if it talks about local government affairs, taxation and personnel, the old man is not much better than anyone else, but when it comes to this battle array military, this is not the director of this official." ”

He gently patted Zeng Ziren's outstretched arm in front of him, and pretended to praise: "The old commander has been running Sichuan military affairs for decades, and all the military attachés of all sizes are submissive, and now you are the only one who can take over the position of the boss, how can other people serve the public?" ”

In fact, even if it is a border army, it is the hat of the general soldier on whose head, and the soldiers under his command will listen to whom, and the green battalion is even more so, more than 3,000 soldiers and horses in the two battalions are directly transferred away, is it really what Zeng Ziren thought, because of his own or the old man's personal charm? It's not because of the tiger talisman in your hand!

If one day, when Zeng Ziren can mobilize troops and horses without the will of the imperial court, Wang Jingli's impeachment of him may be stacked higher than the Taihe Palace, and the emperor's butcher's knife will not be far from him.

Zhu Zongchen himself did not accept the command of the capital to make this position, it is the same reason, the military and political power of Sichuan is concentrated, so the eyes of the imperial history are not all concentrated here? At this juncture of promotion and transfer, I gathered so many hungry wolf-like eyes at once, didn't I make trouble for myself.

"Besides."

Zhu Zongchen continued to add a handful of firewood, intending to burn the fire of desire in Zeng Ziren's heart a little more vigorously.

"The old commander died tragically under the butcher's knife of the Wugu Sect bandits, shouldn't he be a son with a three-foot Qingfeng in his hand, serve the country and avenge his father? The virtuous nephew is happy to plunge into the countryside, and the revenge of killing his father is not avenged, how can the eldest husband stand between heaven and earth? ”

"But..."

Zeng Ziren obviously still can't pass the old man Zeng's level,

"But my father told me before his death and asked me to go back to the countryside, if I take this errand, won't I disobey my father's wishes."

Zhu Zongchen almost didn't stretch out his hand to slap this little young master when he heard this, disobeying your father's will?

Why didn't you think about your father's meaning when you went to Jiangyun Tower to get drunk and make trouble?

Why didn't you think about disobeying your father when you received Chaon's money?

Why didn't you think there was your father's meaning when you stole the tiger talisman and transferred troops?

The old conductor has not had a good son for decades, and now that he has come to me, he has become a good child, if Zeng Hanru knows about it, he will run up to thank me!

Although he was angry in his heart, he still had a righteous and awe-inspiring expression on his face, and persuaded: "My virtuous nephew, this rich man can do it at any time, and when you lead the army to exterminate the Wugu Sect and return to your hometown, what kind of situation will it be to follow the last wish of the old man?"

At that time, both loyalty and filial piety, righteousness and Bo Yuntian will command Zeng Ziren to be passed on as a good story by all the people of the Great Xia Dynasty, even after a hundred years, it will be the most conspicuous portrait in the ancestral hall of Zengfu, and your children and grandchildren will be proud of you! ”

The cake of ambition that Zhu Zongchen personally baked for Zeng Ziren was simply big, round and material, and Zeng Ziren had no worries in his heart, and he couldn't wait to take a bite.

After hearing this, Zeng Ziren got up excitedly and knelt down in front of Zhu Zongchen, and bowed his hand and said: "I deeply feel the grace of Lord Zhu to carry out reconstruction, Ziren will live up to his trust, be loyal to the country, eradicate the Five Grain Sect, and comfort the spirit of the old father in the sky." ”

His mind had already begun to imagine the picture of himself being admired by all the people when he returned victoriously, wearing bright light armor and holding a gold boring, a majestic young commander.

Seeing that Zeng Ziren had already agreed, Zhu Zongchen hurriedly smiled and helped him up, "Commander Zeng doesn't have to be like this, please get up quickly, please get up quickly." ”

The little young master was shouted by Zhu Zongchen, and he was obviously a little foggy.

Zhu Zongchen pushed the tiger talisman in front of him back in front of Zeng Ziren and said, "Since the decision has been decided, Commander Zeng will accept this tiger talisman for a long time, don't push it in front of the old man." ”

Zeng Ziren nodded violently, and then put the bronze pimple back into his arms, and said gratefully to Zhu Zongchen: "In the future, it will depend on Lord Zhu to carry you a lot." ”

"Where and where, you and I are already ministers in the same hall, and the old man who carries the two words dare not be a man, and there is a lot to discuss." Zhu Zongchen hurriedly waved his hand, pretending to be apologetic,

Zeng Ziren grinned childishly, understood what Zhu Zongchen meant, and hurriedly arched his hand: "Only the political envoy is the first to look forward!" ”

-----------------------------

Three days later

Outside the city of Chengdu

An Yi took the army to Long'an Mansion, almost in a big circle, and then returned to Chengdu, several people said goodbye outside the city, Jiang Yun and Pei Zhenfeng returned to the green camp, and An Yi took Jin Mingyin and Jiang Shanghui to Songling Village.

Although it hadn't been much time since they went to Fox Ridge, coming back again made him feel like he was in a different world and the rest of his life after the catastrophe.

But no, I almost couldn't come back, and I brought out a total of 1,500 sergeants, and more than 600 people came back, more than 400 middle military camps plus more than 200 firearms battalions, and the remaining more than 900 young men who had just joined were all left on that wilderness.

When I first stepped into the entrance of Songling Village, I felt different.

Originally, it was just around the school grounds, but now even outside the village can be seen patrolling groups of sergeants, and a guard tower has been erected at the door, and two sentries stand at the door with waist knives, turning this small village into a military camp.

Jiang Shang looked at the layout of Songling Village, and said to An Yi with a smile: "My lord, it seems that after we left, they were not idle. ”

Listening to his words, Anyi's mouth was about to grin, and he was the happiest for the growth of the team.

"Let's go! Then let's go in and see what the current regimental training camp is like. ”

As he spoke, he waved his hand lightly to the two behind him, and walked towards the entrance of the village.

The three of them, Jiang Yun and Pei Zhenfeng barely rested from Long'an Mansion, and rushed back non-stop.

Not to mention the clothes along the way, I haven't even washed a few handfuls of comfortable faces.

They were all like this, not to mention the sergeants behind them, this group of men and horses looked in tatters, and they were no different from the bandits who came down from the mountain for a while.

"Stop! What the hell! ”

Sure enough, this group of "mountain bandits" was stopped by the sentry at the entrance of the village.

"What do you guys do?"

One of the people standing on the sentry tower pointed at Anyi with a fire hammer, and the two people standing guard at the entrance of the village directly took out the crotch knife.

An Yi stopped Jiang Shang, who wanted to dismount and teach this sentry a lesson, smiled at his unkempt face, sat on the horse and asked the sentry, "Little brother is new?" ”

The sentry nodded and said proudly, "It was General Lin who personally recruited me into the camp." ”

After finishing speaking, he reacted as if the person in front of him had not yet reported his name, so he shook the bottom out first, so he flashed the crotch knife in his hand towards An Yi again, and then asked, "Can't you hear what I asked you just now?" Who are you? What are you doing here? Our military advisor can say that without his permission, no one or one horse can enter the camp! ”

After listening to this, An Yi couldn't help but wonder in his heart, not long after he left, why did there be an extra military division in the regimental training camp?

He simply nodded directly at the sentry and said, "Okay, just follow the rules of your military advisor, now I want to go into the camp to see him, then you can take me there." ”

After hearing this, the sentry looked up and down for a moment, no matter how he looked at it, he didn't look like he could catch up with the person who met the military advisor, but he was afraid that if it was really a guest of the military advisor, he couldn't afford to slack off.

"Pillar, you are keeping an eye here, I will go in and report, no one can put it in until we come back."

He looked at An Yi's smiling face, and then looked at Jiang Shang's iron-faced big man next to him, and whispered to the other sentry beside him,

Then he turned around and ran towards the camp.

"Boom!"

It's just that he didn't run a few steps with his head down, and his head hit a heart goggle.

"Oops! You're going to kill me! ”

If it weren't for the guards behind him, Mao Zizhun would have been hit by this sentry and sat on the ground.

He covered the heart goggles on this set of plain silver armor hanging on his body, and grinned, "I said how many times a day can you hit me?" I finally hit this armor, and I haven't been on the battlefield yet, and the heart goggles have made you knock down, so you can't watch the road! ”

Maozi frowned, looking distressed at whether the armor on his body was damaged,

After confirming that everything was right, Fang Cai raised his head and scolded the sentry, "What's the matter? Running so fast, running to mourning? ”

The sentry hurriedly straightened his crooked helmet, bowed down and said, "General Mao, a bunch of people came outside, saying that they wanted to see the military division." ”

Mao Zi was hit by the sentry for no reason, and when he heard him say that someone wanted to see the military advisor, he thought that he hadn't heard the advisor explain who was coming today, so he waved his hand impatiently, "Go, tell them that the military advisor is busy, no!" What cats and dogs can break into the group training camp? ”

As soon as the sentry was about to take the order and drive away the men and horses at the gate, he heard a voice from among the men and horses at the entrance of the village.

"Maozi, you've grown your skills! Even the regimental training envoy dared to stop him! ”

It was Jin Mingyin, who was sitting behind An Yi, who was talking, holding an empty gun in his hand and pointing at the impatient hair in front of the door.

Although Mao Zi is not familiar with Jiang, he has been following An Yi and Jin Mingyin since Huayang County, and he doesn't know the truth.

Seeing these two faces, he still cared about the sentry in front of him, hurriedly stepped forward a few steps, bowed down and knelt down in front of the horse, "See the regimental training envoy, General Jin." Brother Yi, Brother Ming Yin, are you back? ”

Since I am also familiar with the two of them, I will add that sentence later, the etiquette that should be done should be done, and the feelings that should be talked about should also be said.

An Yi looked at Maozi in front of the horse with a smile on his face, and quipped: "Maozi, now it has become Mao's general banner?" Hahaha. ”

Mao Zi dared to be a little impatient in front of An Yi, so he hurriedly got up and stepped forward, took the reins of An Yi's horse, and led them into the camp.

Although the sergeant on the sentry tower had never seen Jin Mingyin, he had also heard the story of the firearm in his hand, so he hurriedly put the firearm behind him and stood upright and saluted, as if it was not him who was looking at comfort with the mouth of the gun just now.

The sentry who rushed to help An Yi and their report was annoyed for a while, and he wanted to slap himself in the mouth, and his heart was finished, this time he was in trouble, and General Lin couldn't save himself.

However, An Yi turned over and dismounted very disapprovingly, and patted him on the shoulder, "Young man, good job!" It doesn't matter who it is, it's like trespassing on a regimental training camp without permission? Inexistent! Even the commander of Sichuan is here, and he has to wait for you at the door to go in and report, understand? ”

Happiness came too suddenly, making it difficult for the little sentry to digest for a while, and he couldn't speak, "Thank you..... Thank..... Xie Tuanlian made a big ..... People"

An Yi smiled at the nervous little sentry and walked towards the camp,

Maozi, who was holding the reins of the horse behind him, saw An Yi turn away, and then kicked the sentry in the ass,

"Thank you, thank you, go and inform everyone, the group practice has made the adult back!"
