Chapter 61: Forming an Alliance

Li Jinzhong was cold and hungry, and he was frightened by the killing at the camp gate. The fastest update was after pouring a bowl of ginger soup and drinking a bowl of broth.

But when he remembered that his errand had not yet been completed, the bloody scene at the gate of the camp left a deep impression on him. The soldiers under this command are all so fierce, and Jiang Chuan, who is the boss, doesn't know how scary it is, so he sighed for a long time, his heart was pounding, and he almost hugged the two little eunuchs and cried.

Fortunately, Liu Ji was ordered to go, and it took him a long time to appease him, which made him believe that Jiang Chuan was definitely not the kind of big demon king with a blue face and fangs who killed countless people.

Looking at the fairy wind bones, the elegant Liu Ji, Li Jinzhong almost wanted to hug him and cry, he had never felt that the civil official was so amiable and kind. In front of him in the palace, he always heard how hateful and annoying those civil officials were, but now when he compared, he found that the civil officials of the Ming Dynasty were simply the kindest creatures in the world.

After appeasing Li Jinzhong, Liu Ji took Li Jinzhong over to announce the decree.

When Li Jinzhong entered the big tent of the Chinese army and saw Jiang Chuan, his face was incredible, he didn't expect that the murderous demon king in his heart was so handsome and young, and with a kind smile on his face, he didn't look like the murderous demon king at all.

Jiang Chuan was a little hairy when he was looked at by this dead eunuch, but it was the first time he had seen a eunuch, so he also looked Li Jinzhong up and down curiously.

Well? Is the eunuch like that, nothing special, just no beard, and a slightly sharper voice. It's just that the ancients didn't have the habit of shaving, so the eunuchs looked more conspicuous. If you put it in the society of your previous life, you will be regarded as a bit of a lady at most.

Watching the new marquis look up and down, looking at himself like an animal, Li Jinzhong couldn't help but feel a chrysanthemum tightened again, and felt that he couldn't hold back his urine again, so he had to hold back a smile that was more ugly than crying and said to Jiang Chuan: "Our Li Jinzhong has seen Leader Jiang, and the leader is really a hero, young and heroic." ”

Listening to the compliments of the eunuch in front of him with a trilling voice, Jiang Chuan secretly laughed in his heart, those guys really scared people a lot.

"My father-in-law has worked hard from afar, please inside." Egawa smiled gently and made a gesture of please.

Li Jinzhong trembled and walked to the middle of the big tent with the two little eunuchs, and after standing still, he asked with a sneer: "Leader Jiang, is this the decree?" ”

Jiang Chuan nodded and said, "There is Father-in-law Lao." ”

After finishing speaking, Jiang Chuan took the lead, and the rest of the people stood behind him and looked at Li Jinzhong.

Li Jinzhong forcibly made himself look a little more majestic, took a cowhide tube from the hand of the little eunuch behind him, and pulled out a holy decree made of bright yellow satin from it and shouted: "The Holy Decree of the Ming Emperor is here, and Jiang Chuan, the leader of the righteous army, receives the decree." ”

"Jiang Chuan takes the order." Jiang Chuan clenched his fists and bowed slightly. The same is true for everyone behind him.

Seeing that the group of people in front of him didn't mean to kneel at all, Li Jinzhong didn't dare to say more, opened the holy decree, swallowed a mouthful of saliva and began to read the holy decree in his throat:

"Fengtian carried the emperor, and the edict said, 'The east is not appeased, the northern Xinjiang is invaded, the people of Li are miserable, and it is difficult to be safe. Today, there are righteous Jiangchuan, scattered all the wealth, self-recruited rebels, repeatedly defeated the Tartars, and protected the territory and the people, which is really a model for the military and the people in the world, I am very pleased, and specially awarded the Marquis of Wu'an in Jiangchuan, and concurrently led the rank of general army in southern Liaoning, and gave him the right to open the government and build a government. Whoever recovers the conquered land in the future, he can draw up the civil and military forces by himself, appoint officials, and take charge of the military and political affairs, so as to replace the Son of Heaven. In order to show the merits of Jiangchuan, I specially gave a set of bullfighting brocade clothes, 5,000 taels of silver, and 200 silk horses as a reward. In addition, Datong Mansion transported 5,000 stones of grain and grass for the use of the Wu'an Marquis's department, and it was not allowed to shirk. I hope that Wu'an Hou can help each other with the Datong border army, make new contributions to me, and appease Liaodong. Chin this! October 27, 27th year of Daming Jingrun. ”

After reading it, Li Jinzhong accepted the holy decree and looked at Jiang Chuan.

Jiang Chuan arched his hand and said loudly: "Thank you, Your Majesty, Long Live, Long live." After speaking, he bowed slightly, and the people behind him also bowed slightly.

"Master Hou, congratulations to Master Hou, congratulations to Master Hou!" Li Jinzhong rolled up the holy decree with a smile on his face, and sprayed the holy decree with both hands to Jiang Chuan.

"Thank you, father-in-law." Jiang Chuan smiled and casually took the holy decree and handed it to Liu Ji beside him, looking indifferent, as if it was not much different from holding a piece of paper, and Li Jinzhong's face trembled even more when he saw it.

"Master Hou, this is Your Majesty's official uniform, including regular clothes and court clothes, as well as the bullfighting clothes rewarded by Your Majesty. This is your general seal, here are five thousand taels of silver tickets. The other 200 horses of silk were due to time constraints, so they were paid to Hou Ye by the Datong Mansion Treasury in the future. Master Hou, look at it, all the things that Your Majesty has rewarded are here. ”

Li Jinzhong took out the same thing from the backpacks on the backs of the two little eunuchs, and introduced them to Jiang Chuan one by one, introducing them very carefully, for fear that if something was missing, he would be in trouble if he was unhappy.

Jiang Chuan glanced at these things, picked up the stack of silver tickets in front of him and looked at it, with the words Chase Money Bank printed on it, and turned to look at Liu Ji.

He had no idea whether this thing was real or not.

Liu Ji glanced at it and said: "Master Hou, this is the most famous silver ticket of the Ming Dynasty's most famous money bank Datong money bank, which passes through the thirteen provinces of the world, and all the prefectures and cities have their semicolons, which can be exchanged with the silver ticket, and can also be used directly for expenses." ”

Jiang Chuan sighed, knowing that this thing was equivalent to a check in the future, but it had one more consumption function than a check.

Looking at the stack of silver tickets in hand, all of which were denominations of one hundred taels of silver, Jiang Chuan counted out ten of them, a total of one thousand taels, and stuffed them into Li Jinzhong's hand and said with a smile: "My father-in-law came from afar to announce the decree, and he worked hard all the way, and he was frightened. ”

Li Jinzhong thought that it would be good for him to return to Beijing intact, but he didn't expect that there would be benefits to take, and it was still a thousand taels, but he was dumbfounded, but he didn't dare to act, for fear that this new marquis would dig a pit for himself, and once he took it, he would be killed.

Jiang Chuan saw through his thoughts, pulled him to the side and whispered, "Father-in-law doesn't need to worry too much. This thousand taels can also be regarded as a friend of Ben Hou's father-in-law. In the future, if there is anything that Benhou is interested in in the palace, it is enough for the father-in-law to inform him in advance, I don't know what the father-in-law thinks? ”

Only then did Li Jinzhong understand that the new marquis had a lot of thoughts, so he began to want to insert his own eyeliner in the palace.

Looking at Li Jinzhong's hesitant appearance, Jiang Chuan knew that he understood what he meant, and he was not in a hurry, and said lightly: "Father-in-law, Ming people don't say dark words, you must also be able to see that this big tomorrow is already stormy, and the troubled times are coming." My father-in-law is a smart person, and smart people know how to find a way out for themselves. In troubled times, who can be your way out, my father-in-law should be very clear. If your father-in-law has concerns, it doesn't matter, you still have to take this thousand taels. In the future, the mountains and rivers will meet, maybe we will meet again one day. ”

These words are a bit of a reminder, and there are also threats and inducements, Jiang Chuan's words are clear enough, it depends on how Li Jinzhong chooses.

Li Jinzhong looked at the 1,000 taels of silver in his hand, then at Jiang Chuan who was smiling indifferently next to him, and then at the cold and serious generals who were full of tents, gritted his teeth, and said ruthlessly: "Master Hou takes care of our family, and our family can't ignore it." In the future, our family will definitely try our best to serve the Hou Ye, and I only hope that the Hou Ye will be able to protect our family in the future. ”

Jiang Chuan laughed, patted Li Jinzhong on the shoulder and said, "My father-in-law is really decisive, smart enough, and he will definitely achieve great things in the future." The father-in-law can leave a token, and when he returns to the capital, someone will naturally contact the father-in-law. ”

Li Jinzhong had already expressed his stance at this time, and he was no longer embarrassed, and ripped off a wooden pendant of Guanyin Bodhisattva from his neck and handed it to Jiang Chuandao: "Master Hou, this is what our family has brought to us since childhood, and it was our family's mother who begged our family from the temple before our family entered the palace, saying that it can keep us safe." In the future, if you take this thing, our family will know that it is Lord Hou's person. ”

Jiang Chuan glanced at the wooden pendant in his hand, but it was already very old, it seemed to be something that was old, and he knew that Li Jinzhong's words should be true, so he put it away.

"Father-in-law, is there still a holy decree to announce?"

The two became an alliance, and when Li Jinzhong saw Jiang Chuan's question, he didn't hide it, nodded and said: "This is the holy decree given by Your Majesty to Inspector Yuan, so that Inspector Yuan will return to Beijing overnight." Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong's two thieves rebelled again, and His Majesty waited for Inspector Yuan to go back to quell the chaos. After this, Liaodong can only count on Hou Ye. ”

Li Jinzhong's words confirmed the information sent by Bai Jinxiu, and Emperor Lao Tzu was really anxious.

However, Jiang Chuan didn't plan to let Li Jinzhong go to announce the decree now, otherwise Yuan Chonghuan knew that he had become a Ming courtier like him, although it was nominal, but it would not look good again. Jiang Chuan was still thinking about Yuan Chonghuan's men and belongings, how could he let him go so easily.

"Father-in-law, you see, it's dark now, and I'm afraid Inspector Yuan has gone to bed. Why don't your father-in-law rest in the Hou army for one night first, and then go to announce the decree early tomorrow morning, okay? Jiang Chuan said with a smile.

"Then, it's okay, our family will listen to the arrangement of Master Hou." Li Jinzhong thought for a while and nodded.

He has experienced so many things today, he is already too tired to do it, and he doesn't want to go to Yuan Chonghuan in the middle of the night. Moreover, Jiang Chuan is still fighting with this one, in case the Ming army accidentally injures himself, it will really outweigh the losses.

Jiang Chuan smiled with satisfaction, this person just listens to the greeting, and he doesn't mind scaring him if he doesn't listen to the greeting. immediately instructed Liu Ji to arrange Li Jinzhong and a few people, and by the way, put some information out of Li Jinzhong's mouth.

Watching Li Jinzhong go out, the smile on Jiang Chuan's face was put away, and he ordered: "The whole army is on alert, prepare for Yuan Chonghuan to break through at dawn, and be sure not to let anyone escape." ”

"No!" The generals in the tent received the order in unison.
