Wang Xinyi immediately paid attention and said, "Who is it?" ”

"This person is Fan Yongdou." Wu Bohe said: "His family property power was swept away by Zhang Han, and the Fan family business house became a medium family from the big merchants from northern Jin to Xuanfu, this grudge is really too big, and the student went to look for him after hearing about it, this person was a little disheartened at first, and then finally moved by the student and promised to help us." ”

"He's just Zhang Han's defeated general." Wang Xinyi shook his head and said, "What's the use?" ”

"Dong Weng, that's not true." Wu Bohe said with a smile: "There must always be a gap to defeat the enemy, we will show the carriage and horses to come, unless there is someone who has a grudge with Zhang Han to come to help, otherwise how can we find an opportunity?" Although Fan Yongdou is useless, we can use him to find opportunities, and this person is useful. ”

Zhang Yongan nodded and said, "This is true, Dong Weng can meet this person." ”

Wang Xinyi still didn't believe that a down-and-out businessman was of any use, but he nodded and said, "If that's the case, you can attract him to see him." ”

……

Ma Chengen went to the side door of the governor's yamen, surrounded by many attachés and several governors, and entered through the side door.

The main gate is not opened unless it is a large gathering of generals, or receiving orders, etc., even if it is Ma Chengen's identity, it can only enter through the side door.

Fortunately, Zheng Guochang was already waiting under the eaves of the main hall, and when Ma Chengen saluted, Zheng Guochang also bowed his waist and waved his hands to return the salute.

"Junmen, there are fewer and fewer captives in the north on the Yansui side, but there are more and more captives on the Xuanfu side." Ma Chengen smiled bitterly at Zheng Guochang and said: "This time Wen Lan got a lot of movement. ”

Zheng Guochang smiled: "Which time did he make a small movement?" ”

Ma Chengen couldn't help but shake his head and laugh.

"Even so," Ma Chengen smiled and frowned: "This movement is still too big, it seems that the Beiyu side is really anxious, the mobilization of various departments, there may be a total of 150,000 or 60,000 people, such a big movement, if the nine sides have to mobilize the army before, the Beijing division may also be under martial law, but now it is estimated that the imperial court does not know much about this, if you talk about it, Wen Lan's energy is really against the sky." ”

Zheng Guochang smiled and said nothing, of course this matter is related to him, the governor, the patrol press can't touch the edge, I don't know the truth, the governor is in control of the overall situation, even if the warning signal at the border is reported as usual, it is also resolved by Zheng Guochang with a trivial matter at the border, if not, even if Zhang Han's energy is great, this matter should be exposed.

Ma Chengen said sincerely: "Lord Junmen, I also took the risk for Wenlan. ”

Zheng Guochang said: "Wen Lan and I are uncles and nephews in terms of affection, and from the official point of view, this time we are also expanding to the north, and the attack is to the north. Of course, if he can't do it, and he will cause the northern captives to commit a big offense, then Wen Lan will face the court himself, and this old man can at most go north to dismiss and dismiss the official, and the bigger one will not be able to carry it. ”

Zheng Guochang's words are also very obvious, now he is still doing the governor's job, and Zheng Guochang did not make a move, the choice of those garrison generals on the border is their own transaction with Zhang Han, and Zheng Guochang has not participated in it.

"Now it's up to you to see what the North is going to do?" Ma Chengen said: "Wanli forty-one years of the governor rebuilt Pingyuan Fort, since then to the present Xuanfu 1,300 miles of the side wall has not been rebuilt, the end of the general has been to Xuanfu to inspect, the wall foundation collapsed, collapsed, many places horses can jump over, if the north invades, you can detour Xinghe Fort, directly attack the middle road of Xuanfu, as well as the West Road, the West Road, these places alone are 179 miles, 229 side piers, 47 Chongkou, and dozens of military platforms and military forts, now these places in addition to the military fort still exists, If the northern captives really go south from the middle road and the upper and lower west roads, at least they can go straight to the vicinity of the town, from Baoanzhou to Zhangjiakou, there is smoke everywhere, if that's the case, the court will be angry, and I and the military gate will definitely not be able to protect our official positions. ”

Zheng Guochang closed his eyes slightly, then opened them again, and he said, "What does Mr. Ma mean?" ”

Ma Chengen said: "The last general has no other intentions, I have ordered the main barracks and Deputy General Lai and other generals to be on guard, but the general army of Xuanfu is beyond the control of the last general......"

"Yang Guozhu?" Zheng Guochang smiled and said, "I think Wen Lan is already on his way to Xuanfu Town." ”

……

"This is 30,000 taels," Zhang Han pointed to the huge wooden boxes in front of him, and said to Zhang Xuzong: "Xuzong, you can't make a mistake in doing such a thing, and when you get to Xuanfu Town, you don't need to go to see Yang Zongbing in person, someone over there will take the silver away, and you can turn back to Li Zhuang after you get the receipt." ”

"Oh, I see."

"What do you mean you know?" Zhang Han stared at Zhang Xuzong, shook his head and sighed: "How many of the people in the Attendant Division around me are as loose as you?" ”

Zhang Xuzong glanced up at Zhang Han and muttered: "I'm a clan brother, you can't call me like someone else, and I can really be seen by you as a subordinate, right?" ”

Zhang Han was furious when he heard this, this guy really couldn't put himself in the right position, he prided himself as the descendant of Feng Pangong, a scholarly family, and he didn't look down on Zhang Han who didn't go to school purely because of business, and he looked down on Li Dongxue and others, thinking that these people were inferior, Zhang Han didn't use a large number of people in the clan, and the people who used them were all people who had never studied and had no fame, and their obvious status was much more important than him and the continuation of the text, most of the people from Puzhou were sent back, and none of them were retained. Zhang Xuzong was dissatisfied in his heart.

"Want to do big things?" Zhang Han had incomparably ridicule and ridicule in his eyes, and he said to Zhang Xuzong: "If you can't do small things, why talk about big things?" ”

Zhang Xuzong looked unconvinced, and said: "You haven't asked me to do big things, how do you know that I can't do it?" ”

"Okay, I know that you are worried about the position of the judge, and I feel that your current identity is bent, it is best to go back to the Acropolis to make up for you a seven-grade experience, and it is not a shame for you to make up for the seven-grade experience as a Xiucai, and you can wear an official robe anyway......" Zhang Han's words were unceremoniously, pointing directly at Zhang Xuzong's heart, Zhang Xuzong was not afraid, and looked directly at Zhang Han with his eyes.

"You can't be wrong about these ideas." For the sake of the brothers of the same clan, Zhang Han's tone was a little softer, and he still reprimanded: "But if you want to go up, you can't use your relatives as a bargaining chip, you have to speak with actual achievements, and you are rewarded with merit, others do it with real merit and ability, but you go up by relationship, what will others think of you, who will obey you?" ”

Zhang Xuzong was a little moved by what Zhang Han said, and immediately said: "Xie Yin is really a trivial matter, but since you say so, I will do it well." ”

"I hope you do what you say." Zhang Han has some hatred that iron does not become steel, in fact, in this era, if his relatives can use it, he is willing to use it, after all, with Zhang Han's plot, once it is revealed, it will be unlucky for the clan, men over the age of sixteen will be beheaded, and the women will be taught as the priest, and the army under the age of sixteen will also go to the border pass, suffering from hunger and cold for decades, so among the clan, even if it is a rebellion, it will be supported, after all, one will lose and one will be prosperous.

It's a pity that the Zhang family in Puzhou is really not angry, except for the continuation of the text, there is really no character to take a shot, Zhang Han also hopes that the continuation in front of him can grow, and he will be a trusted helper in the future.

"Don't worry." Zhang Xuzong's expression was indifferent, his tone was also very stiff, his feeling was completely different from Zhang Han, Zhang Han hated iron and steel, but Zhang Xuzong hated Zhang Han for everything, this kind of emotion he buried very deeply, even Zhang Han didn't notice it, just as he was a useless person who was so ambitious.

"If I have a chance, you will be ruined!" Zhang Xuzong looked at Zhang Han's back, and there seemed to be a fire of jealousy burning in his eyes.

……

In the period from the end of March to the beginning of April, the hustle and bustle and panic in the capital finally came to an end.

The new Liaodong Jingluo King has taken office in Jin, packed up the remnants of the army, reorganized the defense, and there are thousands of white pole soldiers stationed on the Shanhai Pass, plus the remnants of the soldiers and horses of Liaozhen, with tens of thousands of troops to garrison Xiongguan, as long as they do not attack rashly, repeat the mistakes of Shenyang and Liaoyang, with these remnants and the mountains and seas Xiongguan can at least block the Dongyu, and do not let the captives step into the pass.

Ningyuan City was also saved, and after Nurhachi captured Guangning, he obtained a large amount of military funds, and mobilized countless bannermen to push carts to move it, and the Jurchens had no heart to fight again, and the spoils they won were enough for them to digest for a while.

Because Guangning is lonely, Liaoxi is too far away, after weighing, Nuerhachi ordered the destruction of Guangning, but also destroyed the cities of Da Ling River and Xiao Ling River, which made the Ming army in Liaoxi only Ningyuan Lonely City, the rest of the military forts were almost burned or demolished, more than 200 years of operation, turned into ashes.

These do not move the people of the capital, as long as they feel that the Jingshi is safe, and at the same time the main force of the Dongyu retreats, the fighting stops, and the Jingshi is safe, this is enough.

After the weather is warm, there are nobles traveling on the streets of the capital every day, they ride horses in incense carts, go to the Baiyun Temple and other places outside the city, and go there to enjoy the scenery.

The various city gates are also bustling every day, and I don't know how many people go inside.

The people in the vicinity, the merchants, the merchants from the south, the grain ships and merchant ships from Tongzhou, the monks and Taoist priests who traveled to Beijing, the missionaries who came from Taixi, the Southwest Yi Tusi who came to Beijing to pay tribute, the tribute envoys of the Haiguo vassal state, the officials and generals who came to Beijing to report on their work and transferred to the military generals, and the guards of Shandong and Henan who came to repair the city walls and palace imperial tombs...... The number of people who enter and exit the various gates of Jingshi every day has exceeded the bustling cities of the entire earth in this era!

At this time, the most eye-catching thing is the lifting of people from all over the world who come to Beijing.

Even if it is a person who is far away in Hainan, he will be able to take the exam from Beijing!
