At first glance, when he heard that the remaining Xinqi of the military department was visiting, Zhang Qian suddenly felt ridiculous. Although the transfer of soldiers and horses is subordinate to the Ministry of War, everyone knows that Yu Cuiqi has never had anything to do with him, and at most he nods his head on weekdays. He didn't send many sergeants to guard the yamen of the military department, just because there was no need to make a lot of effort for Yu Xinqi. At this time, this military officer who has no real power suddenly came to visit, what is the matter?

Having said that, Zhang Qian still ordered his own soldiers to bring him in, but he did not go out to greet him. There is not much difference in the grades between them, so there is no need for him to make that false courtesy. Moreover, Zhang Qian still has a kind of reserve in his heart, so he does not have any real respect for Yu Xinqi, a member born in a poor family.

"Master Zhang, your yamen is really difficult to enter, and the lower officials have gone through several rounds of investigation before they arrived here, it is really a tiger's den in Longtan!" As soon as Yu Xinqi entered the door, he saw Zhang Qian standing there with a proud face, his eyes were so sharp that he seemed to be interrogating a prisoner, so his words were no longer polite, "If it weren't for the important affairs of the lower officials, I wouldn't dare to come to the door at will, so as not to be bored." ”

How could Zhang Qian, who was sneering at the other party, not hear it, and sneered at the moment: "Lord Yu, what you said is a little sour. is also an official of the imperial court, and the lower officials are also loyal to the emperor and serve the imperial court. He didn't believe that Yu Xinqi would have any big deals, so the ridicule on his face became stronger and stronger, "I don't know if Lord Yu has anything to take the officials?" ”

Yu Xin Qiqiang suppressed the anger in his heart, and a meaningful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. "The lower officials were ordered by the queen to come to reward the soldiers of the Yamen who led the infantry army. I wonder if this reason can satisfy Mr. Zhang? ”

This sentence couldn't help but make Zhang Qian stunned, he never thought that Yu Xinqi could actually get the favor of Queen Xiao. It must be known that although he and Wang Feng of Ningjun did not hesitate to be friends, he was in front of the unpredictable Xiao family. He didn't even dare to get out of the atmosphere. An insignificant Yu Xinqi suddenly had such good luck, how could he not be jealous? However. His natural prudence prevailed, and he asked suspiciously: "Lord Yu, if it is not that the official is suspicious, I wonder if I can ask the Empress Yi to take a look?" ”

Yu Xinqi smiled slightly and took out a scroll of things from his sleeve. Shaking his hand unfolded in front of Zhang Qian, but he immediately retracted it quickly and incoherently. Although Zhang Qian couldn't see it clearly, the jade seal and the queen Xiaoxi who were covered with the ground on his head could still see it clearly, and his face immediately changed greatly. At this moment, he finally believed the words of the person in front of him, and his surprise and disbelief were completely filled with his heart. I don't know how Yu Xinqi climbed to the big backer of the Empress Xiao, but Zhang Qian himself had to make up for the impact of his disrespectful attitude at the beginning.

"Hehe, congratulations to Lord Yu for being reused!" Zhang Qian immediately changed his smiling face, and his attitude became courteous. "I also invited Lord Yu Haihan to be presumptuous before, Xia Guan's personality is like this, and I don't know how many powerful people I have offended." Although it is talking nonsense with his eyes open. But he still said his words very appropriately, "Lord Yu, I don't know the meaning of Niangniang's so-called reward, is it to favor all the generals above and below the yamen under the command of the Zebu Army?" If so. The subordinate immediately ordered them to be summoned. ”

Although Yu Xinqi was extremely disdainful of Zhang Gan's pretentiousness, he waited for this sentence, and immediately responded with a smile: "Those who don't know are not guilty, Lord Zhang is diligent and hardworking, and those interrogations just now are naturally deserved." He paused slightly, then nodded and continued, "The Empress Niangniang Nianbu Army led the Yamen and the people to always loyally stand on the emperor's side when the court situation was turbulent, so she ordered the lower officials to reward on their behalf, and the grace spread all over all the generals. Lord Zhang might as well ask them to hand over the affairs to their deputies, and then summon them here, and the officials can also reward them for their merits. ”

After he finished speaking, he turned sideways and motioned for Zhang Qian to look outside. I saw more than a dozen people dressed as eunuchs guarding a large number of boxes of various colors, including wine jars with royal signs. "This is all a gift from the mother, please Lord Zhang must pass on the message." He accentuated his tone slightly, "Now that the queen mother is speaking, they should be very clear, and they must not be stupid enough to refuse this kindness?" ”

Although Yu Xinqi's words were not very public, Zhang Qian still saved the intentions of Empress Xiao, didn't he just take the opportunity to envelop these most powerful generals in the capital? However, of course he didn't dare to say anything, the Xiao family's methods he had seen the ground, hot and cold, and it would never be fathomable, not to mention that there was the Xiao family behind him. Although he has blocked the mansions of various powerful ministers according to the orders of the wind these days, once the king of Ningjun ascends the throne, he will still rely on these courtiers, and he will offend many people, and it is difficult to guarantee that no one is secretly plotting revenge. For now, he can only firmly rely on the backstage of the Xiao family, so that no one will dare to touch him again.

Therefore, after he was full of promises, he sent his henchmen and soldiers to gather his subordinates. In less than half an hour, dozens of generals dressed in military attache uniforms hurried over, the largest of which had already reached the rank of deputy general, and at the very least, there was also an official position of a thousand generals, and the total was crowded with most of the rear office. Queen Xiao's reward, who can't taste it, and how dare to shirk it easily? So, they staggered, shouted five and drank six, and under the encouragement of the two senior officials who diligently persuaded them to drink, they all poured a belly of yellow soup.

The so-called imperial wine is nothing more than top goods such as Kweichow Moutai, although these generals are also rich in oil and water on weekdays, but they can't afford to hold such a sumptuous banquet, so they don't forget to praise the queen's benevolence while feasting. Although there are not a few people with evil intentions, everyone's thoughts are on the black wooden boxes below, and they are speculating about the things inside.

After thirty years of drinking, Chen Lingcheng hurriedly came over pretending to be Shen Ruhai, which inevitably dispelled Zhang Qian's last doubt. He was the one who knew Shen Ruhai's identity, and knew that Empress Xiao trusted this person quite a lot. Among the doctors in the Tai Hospital, this person knew the most, so as soon as Zhang Qian saw him coming, his heart, which was still a little hanging, suddenly fell to the ground.

"Lord Shen came just in time, today Lord Yu came to reward the general of the infantry army commander Yamen on the order of Yi, everyone is using it happily!" He got up with a smile and greeted, "Lord Shen must have just come from the queen's mother's side, I don't know what else the mother wants?" He deliberately asked one more question, and then looked at Yu Xinqi's reaction, wanting to see a clue from it.

How could the scheming Chen Lingcheng not understand the other party's intentions, so he stroked his beard and said with a smile: "If it weren't for the queen's mother's suggestion, I'm afraid today's lively officials wouldn't be able to make it up." He took a glass of wine from the servant, filled it with wine, and then persuaded him to go over the table, with all sorts of words popping out of his mouth. Where did those generals have such scheming, they were dizzy by the flattery, and they drank more and more in a daze.

When Chen Lingcheng came to the chairman, he changed his mysterious expression. "Master Zhang, you showed your face this time. After the emperor was seriously ill, the queen mother had never had such a big deal, which shows the importance of you. On the day of promotion in the future, don't you forget the little doctor of Xiaguan? He whispered, but the corner of his eye glanced at Yu Cuiqi on the side.

"That's nature." Zhang Qianxi agreed with impatience. As soon as the words fell, he saw Yu Xinqi on the side suddenly stand up and said loudly to the generals below: "Everyone, today's official came to work in the army on the order of Niangniangyi, just for your hard work these days. Therefore, after the feast, the mother also had another reward. He suddenly clapped his hands three times, and saw a group of eunuch-looking people immediately carrying several black wooden boxes.

The people who were still feasting just now immediately fell silent, and a few rays of greed appeared in their eyes. It's no wonder that they did this style, Feng did not hesitate to put a lot of effort into Zhang Qian, and I don't know how many silver tickets and jewelry were sent, and their subordinates were just a little bit light. If those black wooden boxes were full of yellow and white things, then they didn't die in vain. It must be known that the royal justifiable reward is far better than those silver tickets for private bribes, which can not only glorify the ancestors, but also add a capital to press the box in the future.

Just when everyone's eyes were focused on those boxes, Chen Lingcheng glanced at the group of eunuchs who deliberately covered their eyes. They immediately stood next to the box in pairs, and slammed the lid off, and suddenly a dazzling yellow and white color dazzled people's eyes, and the only remaining doubts were dispelled.

When it was too late, a puff of light smoke quickly burst out of several boxes, and in just a few breaths it enveloped the back office, and then disappeared completely in an instant. I saw that the generals who were still in good spirits just now fell to the ground horizontally, and Zhang Gan's face was still shocked, obviously not yet sobering up from the change.

"This ......" his eyes widened, and it was easy for him to burst out a word, but Chen Lingcheng beside him restrained the big points around his body with a finger, and he couldn't say anything. At this time, the group of eunuchs below immediately moved, took out hemp rope and other things from the bottom of the box, and tied the generals one by one to a strong knot, and did not forget to stuff a ball of rags in their mouths. The front office has long been controlled by Zhang Qian's deputy general Cheng Yuxi, so there is no fear that someone will leak the news.

Yu Xinqi saw that the overall situation had been decided, so he stood up proudly and said confidently:

"Lord Zhang, I'm sorry, this official is on the orders of the queen's mother, and he has taken down all the rebellions of the infantry army and the yamen. From now on, your lieutenant general, Lord Cheng, will act as the commander. Seeing that Zhang Gan's face instantly turned pale, he felt extremely relieved, and added fuel to the fire, "Master Zhang, you often walk by the river, how can you not get your shoes wet, your good days are over."
