Shunming's Chapter 472 Great Achievement Covers Up the Negotiation of the Concubine

The battle and the handsome flag are the symbols of the manager. Many battles from ancient times to the present day. There are guards of honor that have been taken away. led to the collapse of the morale of the army. was taken advantage of by the situation to cover up and kill. An example of a crash across the board.

Li Zicheng's Huanggai banner and a series of honor guards were all lost on the battlefield and captured by He Renlong and Sun Dingguo. This is a real victory. After taking these things to show off his might, he went back to report his merits. Supervisor Hou Sui honestly and unceremoniously wrote a report document and sent an expedited horse to Beijing.

The work paper is sprinkled. Said yes. The Great War. Defeat the army of thieves. The thief chief Li Zicheng was captured by me with a guard of honor. The person is nowhere to be found. It is suspected that he died in the chaos. The army of thieves will surely take advantage of the victory and pursue. Wipe out the remnants of the enemy once and for all.

Before this battle. The area operated by Shunjun is the area of Baofeng and County. Fortifications are built here. Lay out the defenses. But after this defeat. He Renlong and Xu Dingguo took advantage of the situation to pursue. Li Zicheng's side has always been unable to gather up and rout the army. All the way back.

The area of Baofeng and County is too close to the battlefield. It's too late to take care of it. can only give up helplessly. The army withdrew all the way to Xiangcheng.

Supervisor Hou Sui was afraid that the soldiers and horses of the two general soldiers would rush too far forward. Break away from the main formation. What's the difference with the pool. After taking Baofeng and County. So he migrated the camp from the area around Ruzhou. Set up a big tent in Baofeng. Command this army of thieves. The great army marched. There are always main armed forces from all over Henan who come to defect.

More than 100,000 soldiers and horses gradually swelled. By the time of Baofeng, there were more than 200,000 people. These 200,000 people huddled. It seems to be a monster moving forward. None of the soldiers and horses of the invading army could gnaw down.

However, after Li Zicheng retreated to Xiangcheng. The main forces of the Shun army. In addition to Li Guo and Gao Yigong in the Xiangyang area. The rest of the generals have already led their subordinates to the Lushan area of Yexian County, Xiangcheng. It is already in a semi-encircled state. All kinds of soldiers and horses add up. It's about 300,000.

When King Chuang began to give orders in Xiangcheng. Li Zicheng died on the battlefield in southern Ruzhou, and the news was self-defeating. However, it will take time for this news to reach Jingshi.

End of July. Emperor Chongzhen received a great victory from Hou Sui in Beijing. There is also news that Li Zicheng may have died in the chaos. His performance can only be described as ecstasy. Such a victory. Capture the Honor Guard of the Thief Chieftain. Kill the thieves for a thousand miles. Nearly 20,000 people were killed and wounded. What a victory.

It seems that since Sun Chuanting was imprisoned. After Hong Chengchou went out of the customs and died in battle. There has never been such a hearty victory. Of course. Emperor Chongzhen would not have thought that if he didn't kill Sun Chuanting. Can the thieves still be so arrogant in the Central Plains?

He Renlong and Sun Dingguo were both knighted. Plus the General. Bai Guangen and Gao Jie are both generals. Adjutant General Niu Chenghu was promoted to commander-in-chief. Supervisor Hou Sui clarified the scope of duty. Governor of Shaanxi, Jin, Henan, Sichuan, Chu Province, Soldiers and Horses, Civil Affairs. Temperate the civil and military affairs of the provinces. and to suppress the thief.

In addition to such rewards. There is still a rumor of the Jingshi. If it is determined that Li Zicheng is awarded. He Renlong and Sun Dingguo will have one person who will be crowned a duke. The rest are at least Hou. At the very least, Hou Sui is also the position of the Taishi. His son, Hou Fangyu, would enter the Nanjing Ministry of Officials.

Such rewards. It is already after the three major expeditions of Wanli. Give the most generous reward to the military generals. With the stingy character of Emperor Chongzhen. actually gave up such a large amount of money. This is really rare. It can also be seen how much this great achievement really makes Chongzhen happy.

Such high-ranking officials are not counted. The Jingshi Imperial Court has been low-key for about a year. Good news to all parts of the world. Towards the provinces.

Such a successful move is not so much a notification of officialdom practice. Rather, it was a demonstration. Show the victory of the imperial court and the bright future to come.

The soldiers and horses in Shandong are all in a tense move. Some of the troops directly under Li Meng and the troops directly under Zhao Neng, the general soldier of Denglai, were bound for the Xuzhou area. Such large-scale troop movements would have to be carried out by water. Despite the news blockade. But in fact, it can't be hidden from many people.

Mobilize troops and horses towards Xuzhou. Under the judgment of those who have a heart. When the brunt of the affirmation of the south of the Zhili everywhere. Lu Jiude, the eunuch guarding Nanjing, seemed to be an ant on a hot pot. Hurriedly follow the transfer. Respond to defense.

But from those familiar officials in Jiangbei. It is said that it is the soldiers and horses under the command of Ma Gang, the general of Pingnan who conquered the west of Chen Liu. There are also many transfers to Xuzhou. This is Lu Jiude's sigh of relief. If you want to fight against Minami Naoli. Jiangbei's ones don't need to go to Xuzhou to gather at all.

When everyone is speculating and trembling. In Jinan, the Duke of Qi issued a clear order. It is said that fierce fighting is raging in the state area. The bandit army was stationed in the southwest of Kaifeng Prefecture. Disturbed by the overall situation. 5,000 Shandong soldiers and horses were specially deployed to Kaifeng to defend the town. The guarding side is safe.

5,000 soldiers and horses were transferred to Kaifeng City. This made both the Shun army and the Ming army breathe a sigh of relief. There were still 6,000 Shandong troops in Kaifeng City. This was under the command of Yuan Shizhong, the commander of Kaifeng's city defense, the guerrilla in northern Henan, and the commander of Jia Dashan, the commander of Dedu. The two armies combined were more than 11,000. It can be called the first-line troops of Shandong's soldiers and horses, that is, about 6,000 people. Guarding the Kaifeng area is more than enough. If you want to go out to fight, you may not be able to.

However, the Ming Dynasty led by the Governor Hou Sui suppressed more than 200,000 thieves and horses. The Shun army led by Li Zicheng, the king of Chuang, was nearly 350,000. And this time it is a collision of the living forces of both sides. Such a large-scale and dangerous battle. Kaifeng City and Guide Mansion must be on guard.

The city of Kaifeng began to store grain in mid-June. Prepare to repeat the previous situation of locking down the city and defending itself. The grain in Kaifeng City will be ready for maturity very early. Naturally, we need the support of Shandong and Nanzhilijiang, which have surplus grain. So the canal and the Yellow River are very busy.

A large number of grain ships came out of the various wharves. The ships were full of high bales. Covered with tarpaulin. Swim upstream to Kaifeng, Henan.

Food is the lifeblood. After the discussion between Li Xianfeng, the governor of Henan, and Yuan Shizhong, a guerrilla in northern Henan. Began to use a security guarantee of 120 points to ensure that grain was transported into Kaifeng City. And it will not be coveted by those idlers who steal. For this reason, military management was carried out at the Taojiadian ferry port in the north of Kaifeng City.

All passing civilian and merchant ships can only dock at the downstream Zhaopizhai ferry port and the upstream veterinary ferry port to unload their cargo. Only grain ships and military ships related to Shandong can dock here.

And in order to store these grains. A large warehouse was also built in the area between Kaifeng and Taojiadian. Storage of food and various supplies. It is also intended to be used as a defense of Kaifeng City.

The situation in Kaifeng City is calm. After being surrounded by an army of thieves for two or three years, they all survived. Now there is food and soldiers. I don't know how much better it was than it was back then. What else are you afraid of?

Even the little kids who ran around like crazy. There is no one to control it. The Wang family who lived in the east of the Zhou Wangfu in Kaifeng City. The two boys of his family were the most naughty and daring. He is the leader of the children in this area. The palace of King Zhou is surrounded by rich and noble families in Kaifeng City. The same is true of the royal family.

Since Kaesong. He cleaned up a few Zhuangzi outside the city and re-operated them. This July and August. Kaifeng City is a little hot. According to the rules of previous years. They all went out of the city to escape the heat. But this year, I was busy with things. Only let the butler go with the two boys.

The day before. The next day the steward returned. Said that there was a GI notice. Kaifeng north to Taojiadian ferry side of the army

The two young masters stayed there and didn't come back. He had no choice but to arrange for someone to watch and invite the master to call in person. The master of the Wang family also knew what kind of stubborn character his son was. Military management over there. The boy will not come back. I don't know what kind of trouble will be caused. Go ahead and call it.

Immediately took the car to the Zhuangzi in person. Dragged back the two children, who were already looking like mud monkeys. As a result, I went home and washed it. At the time of dinner. The two children shouted. Two people went down a trail to the ferry to play. As a result, the intersection and everything were guarded by soldiers.

The two of them knew each other. I found a trail that no one walked and went to the ferry to see the excitement. I wonder why it's so mysterious. As a result, I saw grain ships docked at the Taojiadian ferry. After lifting the cloth. But it was a group of soldiers who came down. Look at the bright armor. Weapon light. It's imposing.

Hear this allusion. The mistress of the Wang family doesn't matter. It's just that I feel sorry for the child. The man had done a lot of business with the Lingshan Trading House. But he knew the news. Immediately, I was scared into a cold sweat. On the one hand, he instructed his own female dependents not to say what he heard. On the one hand, he strictly ordered the two boys not to leave the house again. Or break their legs and so on.

Except for these two daring children. There are also idlers watching nearby. There are also shippers who accidentally bump into each other. These people were all arrested by patrolmen near the ferry. These people were temporarily used as strong men and men recruited by the army. When will freedom be restored. Still have to wait for the arrangement of the army.

The third day of August in the seventeenth year of Chongzhen. Jinan City. The Mansion of the State of Qi.

Followed by two personal soldiers. Li Hong carefully held his younger brother Li Wu. Wander around the pergola-sheltered yard. Li Hong is already more than five years old. But because of the good health of Ping Suri. And eat with generous. This figure is already quite tall. Looks like an eight- to ten-year-old outside.

But Li Wu is only a little more than a year old. Walking is not too steady. Under the tug of his brother. I've been giggling. While circling in the garden.

I saw my brother laughing. Li Hong was also happy. But the action is still cautious. I'm afraid that I will make a big move. hurt his brother.

Because there were two pro-soldiers in the courtyard. For the sake of the difference between men and women. There is a bamboo curtain hanging from the inner hall. Li Meng and Yan Ruoran looked at the two children outside through the bamboo curtain. It's also full of smiles.

Li Meng's position and power are getting higher and greater. It's not easy to have this kind of leisure time with your family in the house. Both husband and wife are quite cherished. Old husband and wife. The two of them are not people who talk much. Just sit quietly. Listening to Li Wu's crisp laughter. I feel quite meaningful.

The two of them looked at it for a while. Yan Ruoran chuckled and said:

"Hong'er is usually a tiger. The appearance of thick branches and leaves. Who would have thought that he would take such good care of his younger brother. If it weren't for the concubine's body to see it today. I won't believe it yet! ”

Li Meng picked up the porcelain cup on the side and took a sip of water. Also smiled and nodded. Spoken:

"The two of them can have such a harmonious appearance. It's a blessing for our family. I hope the two of them are like that today. Ten or twenty years from now. ”

That's all he said. Li Meng had a smile on his face. But Yan Ruoran's expression froze. What will happen to Li Meng's future. Everyone has a rough estimate in their hearts. Li Hong and Li Wu, who are descendants of Li Meng. There will be a bit of something in the future. And the hearts of the people also counted.

Since ancient times. Such a court. The matter of taking the heir is the most painful. It's also the most damaging thing. But it can't be avoided. It's a huge headache.

For now. Li Hong is the eldest son. But his position is not officially identified. Not even in the name of a son. Although this name was given by the Ming court. To be able to have such a name as a "hostile force". In the future, a lot of things will be said that will be easier.

But the Ming Dynasty and Shandong are already like fire and water. In the capacity of Li Meng. Li Hong Li Wu from the time of birth. The imperial court should have a knighthood and a reward for official titles. But the court is like not having such a thing. Completely ignore it.

Although Yan Ruoran and Mu Yunyao's relationship is like sisters. But on the question of the future of their own descendants. will still fight for it regardless of the situation. Yan Ruoran has a gentle personality. I know that there are some things to make myself and Li Meng take the initiative to mention. Maybe it's just a trace. On the contrary, it will have the opposite effect.

Yan Ruoran didn't say anything. Keyan and his wife. There are also some female relatives who are close to Yan Ruoran. They all talked to him about it openly and secretly. This is a major event in the whole of Shandong. Not sure down. There will also be unease in the minds of those involved.

This year, Li Meng spent most of his time at home. Yan Ruoran wanted to find an opportunity to mention this matter several times. They all hesitated.

Outside, Li Hong and Li Wu will walk together for a while. You'll chase after me for a while. The two little brothers were very happy. Yan Ruoran was thinking. When her husband Li Meng was at home. I can't see which of the two brothers he prefers more. Li Hong has not been close to his parents since he was a child. On the contrary, he is willing to play with his Tongling people who are studying in public. And Li Wu is not in good health. Biased to be well-behaved. Li Meng often hugged it.

As a mother. When I came across something that involved my children. and it becomes a mischief. This is also human nature. Yan Ruoran hesitated. Still spoke. She asked softly:

"Husband-sama. Why didn't Sister Yun Yao come over today? ”

Li Meng sighed helplessly. Said with a smile:

"Weak body after childbirth. Lang Zhong also told her to have a good rest. But she always can't leave the affairs of the Inventory Division. It is said that there are thousands of things everywhere in Shandong today. No one is there to do anything. Every day, he led Gu Hengbo and Liu Ru to stare there...... Say it or don't listen to it. ”

Yan Ruoran's purpose in saying this. It's not about Mu Yunyao. Rather, it leads to the following. She bit her lower lip. Said in a low voice:

"Husband-sama. The concubine wants to plead guilty for the following words first. The faux pas are not blamed by the husband! ”

Outside, Li Wu broke away from his brother's hand. I'm staggering there. You can dress up on both feet. The man fell forward. The pro-soldiers in the back wanted to support but were too late. Li Meng was also in a hurry. Just about to say hello. Li Hong in front seemed to feel something. Turn around and bend over. hugged Li Wu.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Li Wu didn't know that he was about to fall just now. Just hugged his brother and laughed out loud. What Yan Ruoran said. He didn't hear it from his side.

Now that the words have been spoken. And man's courage will be strengthened. Yan Ruoran raised her voice slightly. Say it again. After all that is said. Nervous look around. Of course. Whether it's a pro-soldier who plays with his child. Or the maids and servants who are waiting here are all interested in avoiding very far.

Heard Yan Ruoran's words. Li Meng turned his head to look at her in surprise. Laughed and said:

"The conversation between our husband and wife must not be done by words. If so. If you have something to say, just say it. Don't be afraid of anything? ”

"Husband-sama. Now it's all around. Whether it is intimate or distant from our Li family. It all means that our family will be rich and prosperous in the future. Although the concubine doesn't know much about the outside world. But I understand. These people are right. ”

Speaking of which. Yan Ruoran paused. Look at Li Meng's expression. Now Li Meng's expression is full of interest.

Continue to speak:

"The wealth of the husband is limitless. Shandong's great cause is thriving. Ke Hong'er and Wu'er. Hong'er was a little reckless. is not as smart and well-behaved as Wu'er. But it's a sincere ......"

Despite coming to this era for more than ten years. Li Meng also believes that he is fully adapted to this era. But I still hate this kind of euphemism. Li Meng was still stunned for a moment before reacting. He thought about it occasionally. Every time I feel quite a headache. If it's a civilian house, there's no need to think so much at all. But the position of one's own identity is already a time to think about it. Good for this question. Li Meng already has the answer.

Seeing that Li Meng did not react immediately. Yan Ruoran's heart was even more panicked. Li Meng stared at Yan Ruoran's face for a while. Yan Ruoran, who was watching, became more and more flustered. Li Meng laughed loudly. After laughing. Li Meng raised his arm and swung outward. And the servants who had been serving afar had withdrew. Someone also sent an order to the two pro-soldiers who were watching the child. Let them take their children farther away. Li Meng said with a smile:

"You and I have been husband and wife for so many years. How can you still be so secretive when you speak. If so, do you want to ask me whether I am a leader or a virtuous person? ”

That's too direct. As soon as these words came out. The one who smiled bitterly became Yan Ruoran. She wanted to lose herself to being used to her husband's direct way of speaking. Otherwise, this is a rhetorical question. If you are scared, you must be guilty. Yan Ruoran knew that Li Meng was not angry now. He just blushed and nodded.

Li Meng sighed. Stretched out his hand and hugged Yan Ruoran over. Let her lean on her shoulder. Said in a deep voice:

"If Wu'er has the intention of fighting for this position. How could Yun Yao go to the Inventory Division to be busy. I should have come here with you. ”

Li Meng and Yan Ruoran are not very old. But it's also an old husband and wife. Li Meng made this kind of pro-move. still made Yan Ruoran's face flush with shame. But it's also full of sweetness. Li Meng made such a gesture. It undoubtedly illustrates some problems. Her heart was at peace. Li Meng said again:

"Originally, I also thought that Yun Yao might have this thought. is also ready to make it clear to her. But I didn't expect it. Yun Yao told me first. These are the days now. There is no shortage of wealth for children in the future. The higher position, despite the scenery, is also more risky. She and her family have seen too much. Already scared. Wu'er will be able to have a peaceful and happy future in the future. Yun Yao was already satisfied. ”

Yan Ruoran and Mu Yunyao are sisters although. But the days have passed. I also gradually know the details of the other party. Mu Yunyao is fine. Yan Ruoran was inevitably a little wary in her heart.

Mu Yunyao's identity is extremely valuable. In a sense. is more suitable for Li Meng to be Li Meng's wife than herself, a girl from a small bureaucrat. Moreover, Mu Yunyao has lived by Li Meng's side much longer than herself. The following generals all have a good relationship with Mu Yunyao.

More critically. From the time when the Inner Ledger was first established to the current Inventory Division. All the powers have always been in the hands of Mu Yunyao. Mu Yunyao is also handling daily affairs.

For a variety of reasons. Various aspects. Yan Ruoran felt that she was at a disadvantage compared to Mu Yunyao. It doesn't matter if you do. But his own child Li Hong......

Every time I think of this. Yan Ruoran was just worried. But today, I suddenly heard Li Meng say something like this. It was a real bonus. What's more, when Li Meng was relaying. In fact, it has already affirmed the position of Li Hong's heir.

At this moment, Yan Ruoran felt that her whole body was soft. Although it was a great joy. But he couldn't lift up a trace of strength. Li Meng smiled. Said with some emotion:

"If you and I are husband and wife in peaceful times. How good it should be to live a life like this with Hemeimei. Available in this position. Nothing is so innocent! ”

After saying this. Li Meng raised his voice and beckoned over there:

"Hong'er Wu'er. Crazy for a while. Come back and wipe your sweat. Ready for lunch. ”

"Daddy. My brother and I will play again. It's only been a long time! "Daddy. ……”

Listening to Li Hong's slightly resentful answer, as well as Li Wu's milky consent. Li Meng's heart was very happy for a while. It's like being in a fairyland.

But this happy time. Didn't last too long. The pro-soldiers on duty raised their voices outside to report:

"Shandong Governor Yan Jizu asked to see. Shandong political envoy Liu Qingsong asked to see. “

The political envoy of the Shandong Political Envoy Department finally went home to retire. He has already moved his family to Yangzhou City. Take a share of the rich dividends of Lingshan Commercial Bank and Fangjia Salt Stack. Enjoy life in comfort. Who is the successor. Liu Qingsong participated in politics despite being left. But he didn't dare to expect this position.

According to the difference between relatives and sparseness within the Jiaozhou battalion. Jinan Prefecture Tongzhi Zhou Yang and Yan You's political participation rankings are higher than Liu Qingsong's. However, Zhou Yang has already handed over the position of Tongzhi. I went to the newly established Tian Masashi to do the hosting. From now on, it is rightfully subordinate to the system of the Duke of Qi.

But Yan Shenzheng said that he was old. Every day, I teach my grandson to read. Talking about literature and poetry with several Shandong Confucians is already the joy of life. I just want to go home at the end of the year. No more ascension.

As a result, the position of Shandong's political envoy fell on Liu Qingsong's head. Despite the fact that there are two positions, governor and governor. However, the envoy who undertook to declare the political envoy was the real head of the civil affairs of a province. Liu Qingyuan thought that his life would be a future for Denglai Road. Who would have thought that there would be such an adventure.

People in officialdom. There's no greater pleasure than promotion. Be a bigger official. When I first made it to this position. Liu Qingsong is really satisfied. specially wrote a letter to Liu Qingyang, who presided over the Liu family's business in Beizhili, to show off. Who thought to wait for this letter to come back. was scolded by the patriarch.

The letter is simple. Who are you relying on to become the political envoy of Shandong. Whose official position is this political envoy from Shandong? You don't go to this department and that bureau of the Qi State Mansion to take office. Instead, they rolled on the rotten wood in these tombs. I don't want to think about the future yet.

That's true. Then why did Zhou Yang give more priority to this political envoy but didn't do it. Instead, I went to Nada Masashi to be the host. This is the best of the two. Of course, it is clear that it is divided.

But it's too late to regret it. Think about it. Today, more than seventy percent of Shandong's land is under the jurisdiction of the Department of Fields. What is the meaning of governors and envoys? That Yan Jizu can't help it. The brain turned too late. It can only be where to wait. But why did I bother with this?

But if you choose, you choose. Liu Qingsong can only do it in this position with peace of mind. From the side of the Duke of Qi, there was also a rumor. Originally, officials of various systems of Shandong Daming. In the future, there will be a corresponding resignation. Liu Qingsong, these close people, have other arrangements. That's a little bit of peace of mind. However, Liu Qingsong can also confirm it. You may have missed your best opportunity.

When Yan Jizu and Liu Qingsong walked in. Yan Ruoran had already taken her two children to the inner house. Li Meng was waiting in the study in civilian clothes.

Nominally, the two top officials in Shandong entered Li Meng's study. It is to tidy up the placket immediately. He bowed down to this young man who was much younger than himself. If it weren't for Li Meng's dislike of red tape. See the emperor's bow and praise ceremony, which is indispensable.

Li Meng smiled. stepped forward and helped the two of them up. These officials of the Ming Dynasty are extremely particular about the rules of officialdom. For example, arrange your own personal soldiers to arrange seats

Zu and Liu Qingsong have to thank them respectfully again. Another polite remark. The fold in Yan Kai's hand. Spoken:

"Yesterday. The governor's office received a report from the imperial court. The political envoy Yamen also received it. The above is that the governor Hou Sui led a large army to defeat the thieves and soldiers south of Ruzhou. When the battle was killed, the thief Guoyi General Xie Junyou. The capture of the thief chief Li Zicheng is a guard of honor. Li Zicheng's life and death are unknown. ”

Liu Qingsong, who was on the side, echoed a few words. The news. Li Meng's side should have received it five days earlier than them, or even longer. And more accurately. Li Meng said with a smile:

Li Zicheng has already started to gather his subordinate soldiers and horses again in Xiangcheng. Prepare to fight to the death with the army of Hou Dushi. The court was a little early in its joy. ”

Yan Jizu and Liu Qingsong below were secretly relieved in their hearts. Look at each other. They weren't here for this purpose. Yan Ji's ancestors are courtesy. Then he spoke:

"The matter that Lord Guogong gave to the lower officials before. Xia Guan is already preparing. Among the names of the lists submitted by the school officials from various places. Currently at home. Lu's and the south are directly under the north of the river. There were about 700 people. There are still one hundred and fifty people on the side of Lord Li in Henan. ”

Liu Qingsong also took out a piece of paper. Said loudly:

"There are one hundred and ten people from the Hejian Mansion."

Hear the number. Li Meng was taken aback. I couldn't help but ask:

"How can it be so little?"

They counted: In the plate controlled by Li Meng. A scholar with a reputation for himself. And they are not effective in the various systems to which the Jiaozhou battalion belongs. These people say whatever they say. They have a certain influence among the people. Moreover, Shandong is currently heavy on military and light on literature. I'm going to admit these people.

Since these people are free from Shandong's system. Naturally, only the government system of the Ming Dynasty can be counted. I thought there would be a lot of these people. But I didn't expect that it was only a thousand people.

Hearing Li Meng's surprise. Liu Qingsong and Yan Jizu both smiled bitterly. Yan Jizu hugged his fists and said:

"Kokuko-sama. This world has been plagued by disasters and hardships for more than ten years. Scholars can't do work. I only know how to read. Even many of those who went home were dying of starvation. What's more, these scholars who have identities but no real jobs. The Adult's Grange Trading House absorbs scholars from all over the world. It's already considered to be a bad political thing.。 Those who can run to the past are those who have defected. Able to idle at home. They are all the sons of the wealthy families on the side...... In our Shandong words. They all eat expensive salt. ”

The so-called expensive salt. That is, on that day, the wealthy families of Shandong, Dongchang and Yanzhou wanted to buy the kind of high-priced salt goods. This has become a way of identifying oneself.

That is to say. These scholars and literati who have not yet been recruited are the ones who do not worry about food and clothing. And there are some contradictory characters with Shandong. Case. I don't have any regrets. Anyway, after Li Meng's side absorbs it. There won't be too many opportunities for them to advance. If you can't grasp it, don't blame others.

Li Meng smiled. Spoken:

"Come and go freely. I don't force them. Lord Yan did his best this time. It's really hard work. In the future, I will use more adults here. It's still going to be an adult's concern! ”

Qi Guogong's praise. The lower officials were terrified. But something. Despite the commands. Yan will definitely saddle the horse before and after. ”

Li Meng's words made Yan Jizu's heart bloom. Hurriedly stood up and thanked him. Liu Qingsong on the side looked very red. Fortunately, he also has something to report on his side. I saw Yan Jizu sitting down. Liu Qingsong stood up again. turned around and glanced at Yan Jizu on the side. Li Meng nodded with a smile and said:

"Everyone is their own person. Lady Liu has something to say. You don't have to hide it. ”

Liu Qingsong is not an official position in the officialdom. It's still time to deal with Li Meng. are far inferior to Yan Jizu. His attitude can't be so casual. So he stood up and said respectfully:

"Tell your lordship. Yesterday afternoon. The cousin in the Xiaguan clan sent someone to deliver an urgent letter. said that Gao Di, the chief soldier of Shanhaiguan, saw him. The cousin of the lower official also brought the words of the adult in detail. Gaudi said he could. Please make him the king of Liao. Those of Yongping Mansion belong to him for generations. The existing soldiers will not move. ”

Yan Jizu glanced at Liu Qingsong quietly. I didn't expect this colleague of mine. is so close to Master Li. Do such things that are already private. However, I also became more determined to climb this big tree. It's already such a step now. I have to work harder myself.

Heard Liu Qingsong's sky-high asking price. The smile on Li Meng's face has always been faint. He continued to ask:

"How is Wu Sangui, the chief soldier of the Ningyuan regiment training. Liu Qingyang once told his father. When the Liu family was prosperous. also has a lot of dealings with this Wu general soldier. How did you talk about it this time? ”

Speaking of which. Liu Qingsong's face showed a slightly embarrassed look. He cleared his throat and said:

"Wu Sangui's side. Xiaguan's cousin also went to talk. It was very polite to say that Mr. Wu was the chief soldier. However, the conditions are higher. It is said that the Wu family must have one person as the king. One person is the Hou. Imitate the example of the Mu family in Yunnan. Shizhen Liao's ...... Otherwise... Otherwise..."

Liu Qingsong couldn't speak. The smile on Li Meng's face was even bigger. Urged:

"Lord Liu, but it doesn't hurt to say. Li's temper is very good. Listen to the conditions they open. It's open. “

Liu Qingsong bowed a little low. Slurring and saying:

"Kokuko-sama. That Wu Sangui said. If the position of the prince of this domain is not given by the adult. The position given by the Tartar side is higher. His Wu family is calm......"

Li Meng was stunned. The atmosphere in the room suddenly became a little awkward. The soldier on duty outside the house pressed the hilt of his sword and glanced inside. Yuan Wenhong, who recorded there, also raised his head. Suddenly. Li Meng burst into laughter. Looks. Very indulgent laughter indeed. For the weighty Li Meng. Even rarer. Finally, the laughter stopped. Li Meng wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes. Liu Qingsong over there was already trembling, sweating, and didn't dare to come out. Li Meng waved his hand. Said with a smile:

"Don't panic. It's ridiculous. On that day, Wu Xiang and Wu Sangui were trying to curry favor with their fathers. Even the women around me were sent. Today, I consciously have a place to go. Actually have to bargain. My father didn't understand. As the blood of my Han family. Go and take refuge with the Tartar barbarians. Could it be that this Wu San didn't feel that he wanted to shame his ancestors. Do you have no face to the world...... It's true that dogs can't change their appetite...? ”

That's it. Who would dare to answer. Li Meng began to smile. But the more you talk about it, the more severe it becomes. even said foul language. However, Yan Liu and the others disagreed with the sentence "can't be changed". Wu Sangui used to be a loyal minister of the Ming Dynasty. There is no bad deed of betraying the country and joining the enemy, right?

The two of them didn't dare to speak. Li Meng's emotions calmed down at this time. Take a long breath. Said coldly:

"Shameless things for the face. Since you say it well, you don't want to listen to it. Then you can't listen to it until you're done. Mr. Yuan. Proposed military order. Because of the Shanhaiguan General Army, Gao Di Ningyuan Regiment Training, Wu Sangui, the general soldier, betrayed the country and collaborated with the enemy. Zhang Jiang, the commander-in-chief of Hebei, led his army to the crusade. Do it when you see it!! ”
