Section 134 Entering Beijing
On the first day of the first month of June, Liu Zhilun and Li Yu rushed to the Shili Pavilion in the east of the city of Beijing, the martial law of the Beijing division has been lifted, and people's lives have returned to the way they used to be, although the outside of the city is colder than the inside of the city, but the remaining shops have been reopened, and the road is full of pedestrians, the people of Beijing are beautiful and lively, the city and the outside of the city are the same, and they suddenly came to a miscellaneous soldier dressed in disorder, and immediately surrounded them to judge their heads, Liu Zhilun still had more than 800 volunteers who saw the home, and immediately revealed their original form, shouting and shouting into a mess.
"Brother Yuancheng, you can wait for you, come with me!" A man of about forty years of age sprang out of the pavilion, followed by dozens of men armed with sticks.
"Masa-hee, what are you doing here?" Liu Zhilun asked puzzled, the man and people had already surrounded him.
"I'm not afraid of something happening to you! The gang of people you brought are not fuel-efficient lamps, the court will not give you the silver taels, nor will they send people to pick you up, I am worried that these people will not be able to get the money to detain you, I have brought the family members and fellow villagers and friends to help, the hero does not suffer the immediate loss, come with us! "Someone pulled Liu Zhilun and was about to escape.
"It's okay, thanks to Hermes-Epitek this time, when our righteous courage took Zunhua, we gave out five taels of silver per person, and each of the Huijing teachers made up three taels of silver, and it was too late for them to be grateful," Liu Zhilun smiled and waved his hand at the visitor, pulled him out of the circle, and pointed to Li Yu, who was watching the excitement on the side, and shouted, "Hermes-epitek, come here, this is the Lord Kim Sheng, Kim Jong-hee, whom I often tell you about, and Lord Kim is also from Shujishi, you have to ask him for more advice in the future." β
Jin Sheng grabbed Li Yu, who was about to salute him, and after looking up and down, he said: "It turns out that you are Li Hanmin, the deputy general of Datong Jingyu, no wonder Brother Yuan Cheng praises you every time he writes to you, such a big man is a tiger general at a glance, Brother Yuan Cheng has subordinates like you, and the official also feels envious, Brother Yuan Cheng said that your reading foundation is good, and I want to accept you as a disciple, so let's do it, the official will also accept you as a disciple, and the two of us will teach together, you can take a big advantage, Brother Yuan Cheng, you don't want to eat alone!" β
Liu Zhilun smiled but didn't answer, Jin Sheng seemed to really like Li Yu, holding Li Yu's hand and talking endlessly, Li Yu's heart came together, when he was in Jinguo, there were Kur entanglements and Dahai forcing him to read, and if he didn't read seriously, he had to be beaten, and finally it was easy for a few years, and there were two more people urging him to die in Mingguo, I was a farmer, hunting and reading so many books and a fart, my life was so bitter!
They are talking vigorously here, but the team of volunteers is chaotic, these guys slipped out of the queue in twos and threes, and the people blew nonsense, and some people proudly took out the silver medal given by the emperor to show off - Li Yu threw the silver medal given by the emperor to the righteous brave, that thing is not worth anything, no one wants to ask for the Fengzhou soldiers, but it also fools the people, Liu Zhilun saw that his people were getting more and more chaotic, so he had to order Ding Qiming to reorganize the team.
"Hugh has to run around and scream, embarrassed, we are the victorious division of the Ming Dynasty, we all cheer up the spirit of the official and straighten the waist, let's take a detour from the Yongding Gate into the city, let Master Jing see my Ming righteous and brave demeanor." Liu Zhilun was very dissatisfied with the fact that the imperial court did not send anyone to greet him, and shouted loudly to the team that Yongding Gate was the main gate of the outer city of Jingshi, and he just wanted to show the courtiers - he came back alive, and he came back with a victorious army.
Ding Qiming led everyone to shout the slogan of "Long live my emperor, Daming is mighty", and marched to the Yongding Gate in the south, followed by a large group of idle people who had nothing to do.
The team of volunteers drove into Yongding Gate with great momentum, Ding Qiming took this group of people to shout slogans in Yongding Gate and turned a few streets randomly, causing more and more people to watch the excitement, the chickens and dogs tossed near Yongding Gate, it was almost noisy, Liu Zhilun ordered the Yiyong to disband on the spot, and the volunteers remembered that they were still ordinary people, and they should go home, Daming is still the Ming of the past, those who asked for food in the past still have to go to ask for food, and those who used to be idlers continue to be idlers, and it would be good to come back alive, and those who died died in vainSince then, there have been a group of guys in the Beijing division who have taken the imperial silver medal to beg for food, and have been abducted and deceived, and it has become a major public nuisance in the Beijing division.
The volunteers dispersed one after another, Jin Sheng suggested that Liu Zhilun arrange for Li Yu to live in the barracks outside the Xuanwu Gate, and it was best not to go to the post of the military department, the post officials have always looked down on people, and Li Yu's gang is likely to be troubled by these guys, Liu Zhilun thought about it, took out a famous thorn and asked Ding Qiming to accompany Na Mu'er and them to the barracks to arrange a place to live, and he immediately took Li Yu to the military department to report.
After Li Yu finished reporting in the military department, he broke up with Liu Zhilun and Jin Sheng, Liu Zhilun's family Liu Er took Li Yu to the barracks outside the Xuanwu Gate, Liu Zhilun is the assistant director of the right attendant of the military department, and it is easy to do things with his face, and a small courtyard was vacated for them in the barracks, and they were dissatisfied with the lack of people. Li Yu entered the courtyard, only Ding Qiming and Na Mu'er were chatting in the hall, and Meng Ke and Chao Lu had already gone out to go shoppingβthey were going to play when they came to Jingshi.
Chen Erzhu and Liu Shishi were very excited when they entered the yard, every room had to be seen, every household had to be touched, compared with the thatched adobe house in their hometown, it was really good here, the bed was a heavy wooden bed, not the earthen kang at home, there was a warm quilt on the bed, there were tables and chairs in each room, and there were beautiful porcelain pots and cups on the table.
"Lao Ding, it's really nice here, thank you for helping you find a good place to live." Li Yu also thanked Ding Qiming with satisfaction, this is also a real person, after half a year, they also have friendship with each other.
"Actually, this is not a good place to live, recently there is a group of Sichuan soldiers, I heard that it is Shi Yan's consolation to make Ma Xianglin's soldiers, the barracks are always noisy, the pavilion is much better, but you are not comfortable going, there are all civil officials" Ding Qiming explained apologetically, he pointed to the door again and said: "There is no food here, you either go out to find a place to eat, or make your own fire to cook, there is a kitchen in the yard." β
"It's not a big deal, soldiers don't pay attention to these," Li Yu waved his hand and asked Lao Ding again, "Who is this Ma Xianglin, I saw that there are many short soldiers in the barracks, is it his soldiers?" β
"Ma Xianglin is the son of Ma Qiancheng, who was framed by the original Shi Yan to comfort Ma Qiancheng, after Ma Qiancheng was framed and died in a lawsuit, his wife Qin Liangyu succeeded him as the Shi Yan Xuan Comfort Envoy, and later the first emperor awarded Qin Liangyu the post of chief soldier and governor, and the Shi Yan Xuan Comfort Envoy was given to Ma Xianglin," Ding Qiming saw that Li Yu was a little disdainful, and continued, "Don't underestimate this family, their family is amazing, Ma Qiancheng is the Han Fubo General Ma Yuan, after the crusade against the Banzhou thieves, he made great contributions, and his wife Qin Liangyu is a famous female general in my dynasty, Fought Jiannu and Shuixi thieves, can be called outstanding achievements, their soldiers are all Sichuan stone soldiers, known as 'white pole soldiers', each of them has an ash pole spear, not tall to fight but very good, in the battle of the Hunhe River in Liaodong Jian Nu frightened, that Ma Xianglin is also not an ordinary official eunuch disciple, brave and repeatedly made meritorious achievements, Hunhe was shot blind in one eye and did not retreat, known as Zhao Zilong, this time Qin Liangyu also brought the 'white pole soldiers' to King Qin, but unfortunately it was a step late, or there is a Jiannu to see! β
"I've also heard that Qin Liangyu and the 'white pole soldier', the name is indeed not small, Sichuan is so far away and came to King Qin, he can be called a loyal minister and a good general, but unfortunately the officer in charge of the battalion said that Qin Liangyu returned to Sichuan a few days ago, or I really want to meet this famous heroine of the female middle school," Na Mu'er sighed regretfully, and glanced at Li Yu with bad intentions and said, "Great commander, the arrow that shot Ma Xianglin's eye should not have been shot by you, right?" I've always felt like you're the only one who can do that. β
"Nonsense, I didn't know where it was at the time." Li Yu kicked Na Mu'er's ass in the back, and Ding Qiming looked at it and laughed while holding his stomach.
Ding Qiming saw that it was a little late, and said goodbye to Li Yu, Li Yu asked curiously, your old Ding is in the Beijing camp as a gun commander, aren't you in the same barracks with us? Lao Ding was a little embarrassed to explain, he was in the Beijing camp to hang a name, when he was paid, he went back to the barracks to see, usually looking for some errands in the Ordnance Bureau of the Ministry of Industry, and by the way, he also took the Ordnance Bureau to do some small business, and if he wanted to find something in the future, he would go to the Ordnance Bureau to ask, and he would be able to find it.
"However, I will often come to see you, I have entered the Western Religion, the South Hall in the Xuanwu Gate is where I worship, I can just stop by to see you when I go to the South Hall, if you are fine, you can also go to listen to the lectures, you can learn a lot of useful skills." Ding Qiming said.
"Lao Ding, do you know the priests of the Western Sect? I want to ask them for a claireye, and I'm willing to give money. When Li Yu heard this, he immediately remembered Ma Guangyuan's rare treasure, and grabbed Ding Qiming.
"I know a few priests, but clairvoyance is a treasure, and money can't buy it, that thing was only made by Tessie, and the priests are reluctant to sell it, and those of us who have been baptized and converted to the church can hardly get it," Ding Qiming glanced at Li Yu and said, "Besides, adults have two wives, and they can't join the church, and those who join my religion are only allowed to have one wife, and the priests are strict about this." β
"I don't have a wife, give me a clairvoyance and I'll join the church, so it's okay." Na Mu'er also came over with a grin, and Chen Erzhu and Liu Shishi immediately coaxed, "We also want one."
Ding Qiming saw that the situation was not good, so he ran away as soon as he slipped away, and when he was discharged from the hospital, he almost collided with Meng Ke and Chaolu, who had just returned.
"Boss, guess what we saw?" Meng Ke came in and said mysteriously, without waiting for Li Yu to answer, Meng Ke and Chao Lu shouted excitedly, "Female soldiers, there are really many female soldiers!" β
The next day, Li Yu slept until the sun was on his buttocks, and before he could figure out how to mix this day, Liu Er came to the door and dragged Li Yu to the military headquarters, saying that Lord Liu was looking for him in an emergency. When he arrived at the military department, Liu Zhilun was waiting for him in the lobby, and there was also Liu Wenzhong, the eunuch who came to deliver the decree last time, Liu Zhilun saw Li Yu and immediately said: "You hurry up and prepare, Your Majesty will summon you today, you go with me." β
"I'm not going, I only arrived in Beijing yesterday, I have to let me take a breath, besides, I can't speak, and I don't know how to count, what if I make the emperor angry?" Li Yu said confidently.
"Daring, you think this is your nest, can you be lawless? Your Majesty has every opportunity, and it is your creation that can give you an audience, and you dare to push back, it seems that this official is going to teach you a lesson. Liu Zhilun immediately went to find the guy who took advantage of him, it was useless to talk nonsense with this guy, so he would fight first.
"Lord Liu, don't be angry yet, hasn't Vice General Jingyu never seen the world? Let's talk to him well," Liu Wenzhong hurriedly stopped Liu Zhilun, who was raising a broomstick, and pulled up Li Yu, who was squatting on the ground and waiting to be beaten, with an amiable smile, "Vice General Li, the emperor summoned you is a good thing for the glory of the ancestors, this time there are more generals in the towns of Weiqin Wang, except for Qin Liangyu, who summoned from Sichuan a few days ago, there is only one of you, even our family feels that there is light on their faces, hurry up and wait for our family to enter the palace." β
Li Yu cried and said: "Father-in-law, look at how many patches I have on this dress, and my boots are also open, can I go to see the emperor with this appearance?" β
"This is easy to do, the official will immediately ask someone to prepare an official uniform for you, but you must go to see Your Majesty honestly." Liu Zhilun waved his hand and said, Li Yu's appearance is indeed rather shabby, he has been fighting since the end of last year, and the imperial court has never cared about what they wear, and the appearance of the entire Fengzhou army when they leave the customs is not much better than asking for food.
Li Yu was dragged into the palace after being beaten by Liu Zhilun, and when he entered the palace and waited for the summons in the courtroom, Liu Wenzhong seized the time to conduct surprise training for Li Yu, but he soon became a little frustrated, Li Yu was too stupid, and it was not good to learn simply three kneels and nine bows, so Liu Zhilun had to tell Li Yu to follow behind his ass and learn to do what he did.
The emperor seemed to be very busy, and it was not until after noon that he summoned Liu Zhilun and Li Yu to the left middle gate to meet him, and Li Yu was hungry and unhappy to follow Liu Zhilun to see the emperor.
The emperor is actually very hard, the Ming family is not good, internal and external troubles, years of famine, the courtiers are not angry, and thieves steal his Zhu family's property, forcing him to worry more, he also took the holy kings of the past dynasties as an example, for his own industry really let go, eat coarse tea and light rice, wear washed old clothes, all night to review the chapter to the point of forgetting to sleep and eat, sometimes only sleep two hours a day, young people grow white hair.
Today he got up and combed on the fifth watch day as usual, and then went to the Wenhua Hall to participate in the banquet held every second day of the month, by the way, he mentioned that he wanted to summon the deputy general of Datong Jingyu, and the courtiers who participated in the banquet had no opinion, the deputy general of Jinglu was Yiren, he wanted to reward him with a face, Huairou attached to the far away for the emperor's way, that Tusi Qin Liangyu was not also summoned, it is not easy to say that the people are loyal to the people, Qin Liangyu came from the far away Sichuan, and more than 9,000 people only gave 7,000 people food, Starting from October last year, I arrived at Qingdu in Baoding Mansion in February this year, and there were less than 200 people left behind, and the realm of people who were diligent in the king's affairs was not comparable to the officials of the Ming Dynasty, and the deputy general of Jingyu was similar, Datong sent people away with a set of cotton clothes and quilts plus a month's rations, and until now there has been no serious payment of food, and the strong labor force that works hard like this and does not need to spend much money will have to be used next time. However, everyone knows that this deputy general Jingyu is actually a turtle, which is like Qin Liangyu, who has seen the world, and it is recommended that Liu Zhilun be summoned at the same time, and there will be a familiar person to take with him so as not to be too embarrassing.
After the emperor held a sutra feast, he simply ate a few bites of food, and immediately went to the Zhongzuo Gate Palace, where Cheng Jiming, Zhou Yanru and several courtiers also wanted to see what this well-known deputy general Jingyu looked like, and followed the emperor's ass to see the excitement.
When Li Yu followed Liu Zhilun and was introduced to the side hall by Liu Wenzhong, he immediately attracted the attention of the emperor and courtiers, such a tall figure! It's probably like that's how tall you are, so blame this guy for being so good at fighting. However, Li Yu's performance immediately stunned them, Liu Zhilun bowed three times and bowed to the emperor in front of him, Li Yu was wearing a tight and short court dress, clumsily painting cats and tigers in the back, like a big bear lying behind the thin Liu Zhilun to perform, the courtiers, eunuchs and palace maids in the palace almost laughed out loud, the emperor blushed and coughed a few times, everyone held back.
With a snort, Li Yu's temporary military attache uniform on his body was finally broken open, the eunuchs and palace maids couldn't hold back anymore, and immediately burst into laughter, and the courtiers with self-cultivation also hurriedly covered their mouths and turned their faces, but Liu Wenzhong lowered his head, Li Yu was too tall to find a suitable official uniform, and he forced this court uniform on Li Yu. Li Yu stood up and took off the court clothes that had tormented him for a long time, revealing a patched and tattered cloth robe, and then knelt on the ground again, blushing and whispering: "The minister can't wear good clothes, and he hasn't seen anything in the world, so let Your Majesty laugh, don't let the court clothes of the court be ruined anymore!" β
The emperor looked at Li Yu as usual, and couldn't help but touch the dragon robe that he had worn out the corners of his clothes, he only had two such dragon robes, he shook his head slightly and said: "Li Aiqing, just excuse yourself and flatten yourself, I know that you have a hard time, and it is not easy to have a decent dress, I owe it to you!" β
The emperor's kind words made Li Yu feel hot in his heart, he couldn't help but look up at the emperor, the legendary Emperor of the Ming Dynasty was pale and a little thin, but his two eyes were bright, and with a trace of warmth, the age seemed to be similar to his own, Li Yu was a little surprised in his heart, this was completely different from the mighty and energetic emperor he imagined, the emperor in front of him was even more of a weak young scholar, how could he be the opponent of the domineering Sibeile, even inferior to Chahar Khan, although that guy was also weak, but there is a whole set of escapes.
"I thank you for sending the horse, it is indeed a good horse, the saddle is also very beautiful, I like it very much, but I can't ask for your horse for nothing, I also give Aiqing a flying fish suit, you are now a heavy general of the Ming Dynasty, and you should have a decent and good clothes." The emperor smiled and whispered to Li Yu, "In this Zunyong War, Aiqing has made great contributions, and I understand in my heart, do you still need me to help you?" β
"Your Majesty, the minister's wife has given birth, and the minister wants to go home!"
