Chapter 494 Shi Kefa fanned the flames

（o494）

Shi Kefa did not come to Huangxian alone, he was accompanied by Song Degang, the chief soldier of Denglai stationed in Qingzhou City. Song Degang did not come alone, and brought five hundred Ming troops, but they were unarmed. It's a given. The current Laizhou Mansion is Zhang Zhun's territory, and it is impossible for the armed Ming army to pass through here. With Song Degang's understanding of Zhang Zhun, he didn't want to be Zhang Zhun's target. Therefore, after arriving in Changle County, he automatically and consciously disarmed.

Song Degang was originally stationed in Qingzhou City, and when he heard that the Tatars had entered Shandong, he was also frightened. He was originally stationed in Dengzhou City, and he had some understanding of the ferocity of the Tartars. In the past, due to the existence of Dongjiang Town, due to the barrier of the sea, Dengzhou City was able to avoid the Tartar soldiers. Now, Dongjiang Town has surrendered, Dengzhou City has surrendered, and the Tartars have actually killed the ground in Shandong. Once the Tartars are raging, Qingzhou City can't stop it at all. It was a terrible thing.

However, in Qingzhou City, the most frightened person was not Song Degang, but King Heng. King Heng, who was frightened by Zhang Zhun once, heard that the Tartars had occupied Dengzhou City, so he immediately packed up his soft baggage and ran to Jinan City overnight to hide. Until now, King Heng has not returned to Jinan Mansion. Although there was news that Zhang Zhun led the Tiger Ben army to defeat the Tartars in Huangxian County and inflict heavy losses on the Tartars, King Heng still couldn't believe it.

For the sake of safety, King Heng asked him to bring a letter to Song Degang, asking him to come to Huangxian to see if the Tartars were really defeated. Song Degang also wanted to know what was going on, so he applied to Zhang Zhun and said that he wanted to come to Huangxian to have a look. For this "old friend's" request, Zhang Zhun naturally approved. Just happened to meet Shi Kefa passing by Qingzhou City, and Song Degang came with him.

Shi Kefa was automatically invited to Dengzhou Mansion. When he came out of Beijing, it was when the rumors of the Tatar occupation of Shandong spread the most. At that time, there were rumors throughout the Jingshi that the Tatars had occupied Shandong, and the next step was to surround the Jingshi in a roundabout way. Probably because they have experienced too much suffering, many people on the streets, when they talk about the Tartars' attack plan, they are all set in a set, and they have a clear eye, which makes people have to believe it.

The whole Jingshi was panicked by the rumors, and even in Baoding Mansion, Hejian Mansion and other places in the south of the Jingshi, there were large families who packed up their soft baggage and took refuge in the Jingshi. Dongchang and Jinyiwei arrested people everywhere, and they couldn't control the spread of rumors. In the end, there was no way, the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division had to order martial law in the whole city, and all the three major battalions also took to the streets to suppress them, and the situation was a little better.

Rao is like this, the imperial court has deeply felt that the harm of the Tartars entering Shandong is too great for the Jingshi. Once the Tartars really split into two ways to meet the Jingshi, the Ming Kingdom will definitely fall apart. And now, the only thing that can stop the Tartars from continuing to wreak havoc is the only one who seems to be the anti-thief Zhang Zhun. Therefore, even though Zhang Zhun's request was excessive, they had to agree.

Faced with such a serious situation, the imperial court decided to agree to all of Zhang Zhun's requests and sent someone to issue an edict to Zhang Zhun. The eunuchs in the inner court may be worried about encountering Tartars on the way, or they have listened to too many rumors about Zhang Zhun, or they are affected by "Begging for Rape", so they are not very willing to come. The edict to be issued to Zhang Zhun was placed in the inner court for two days, and no eunuchs were dispatched.

Shi Kefa's family Shi Dewei followed Zhang Shenyan to Laizhou Mansion for a month, and after returning to Beijing, he told Shi Kefa everything he had seen and heard, which made Shi Kefa very interested in Laizhou Mansion. In particular, Zhang Shenyan told him through Stilwell that there are some things that he had better come to see in person to truly understand. In this way, Shi Kefa was even more curious about Laizhou Mansion.

It's just that he is now a six-grade sesame official, and it is impossible for him to come to Laizhou Mansion through formal channels. He overheard that the inner court did not dare to come to Laizhou Mansion to issue an edict, so he took the initiative to apply and take a trip to Laizhou Mansion. Since Shi Kefa jumped out, the inner court was naturally happy to do this. After some covert operations, Shi Kefa left the Beijing division with the edict.

In the past, from Jingshi to Dengzhou Mansion, they basically boarded the ship in Tianjin Wei and went ashore directly in Dengzhou City by sea. Now, the city of Dengzhou is controlled by the Tartars, which is naturally impossible. You have to go through Dezhou, Jinan, Qingzhou, and Laizhou to reach Huang County. Along the way, Shi Kefa, a weak scholar, rode a horse and worked tirelessly, which greatly shortened the time on the road.

Fortunately, many civil officials at that time, especially young ones, could ride horses. Some civil officials are quite good at equestrianism. For example, Hong Chengchou, Sun Chuanting, Lu Xiangsheng and others can ride horses. Especially Sun Chuanting and Lu Xiangsheng, their riding skills are very good. As for Yuan Chonghuan and Mao Wenlong, it is even more needless to say.

In this year, even civilian officials are very likely to go into battle to command the war. If you don't know how to ride a horse and want to direct a war, you will have a lot of inconveniences. Soldier Guishen, this is not just about fun. It's not nice to say, if you lose a battle, even if you have to flee for your life, one leg is much faster than two legs.

Rao is like this, from the capital, it took Shi Kefa several days to come to the ground in Shandong. When he stepped onto the ground in Shandong, Zhang Zhun and Dolgon happened to be bleeding and vomiting blood. When Shi Kefa came to Huang County, the corpses of the Tartars were almost buried. For failing to catch up with the Huangxian War, Shi Kefa certainly felt very regretful. Ming Guotai needs a victory to prove himself. Even if it is a victory brought by the "anti-thief".

Zhang Zhun still lay on the wooden board to meet Shi Kefa.

"Shiro-na, we're meeting again. I have injuries on my body and I can't see the courtesy, so please forgive me. Zhang Zhun said with a slightly wry smile. Shi Kefa has now been demoted, and he is no longer Langzhong of the household department, but he still calls the other party Shi Langzhong.

"Lord Governor is dedicated to the country and defeated Jianyu, which is really a model for us. So-and-so should bow to you. Please accept a certain bow. Shi Kefa said sincerely and saluted Zhang Zhun deeply.

Zhang Zhun shook his head inadvertently, and said slowly: "It's more polite." We're still on business. I don't know what good news Ken Zhicong Jing Shi has brought me? ”

Shi Kefa straightened his body and carried the edict: "Zhang Zhun knelt down to receive the order"

Zhang Zhun smiled bitterly and said, "Shi Langzhong, look at me like this, can you still kneel three times and knock nine times?" ”

Shi Kefa was speechless for a moment. He knew that when Zhang Zhun received the edict before, he had never knelt down, and he didn't take the dignity of the edict in his eyes at all. The people who read the edict before did not dare to ask Zhang Zhun to kneel three times and knock nine times to receive the edict. Therefore, when he left Jingshi, he was thinking about how to ask Zhang Zhun to kneel and salute to show the majesty of the court and the royal family. If Zhang Zhun did not give in, he would not read the edict. He is ready to have a good time with Zhang Zhun to see who can see whom.

For his backbone, Shi Kefa is still a little confident. He didn't believe that he would not be able to survive Zhang Zhun. As long as Zhang Zhun relented first and knelt down, he followed more steps to recover Zhang Zhun step by step. That's right, Shi Kefa did have such an idea. Both he and Zhang Shenyan had such thoughts.

It's a pity that after arriving in Huang County, he is now that Zhang Zhun is really injured, and he really can't kneel and knock nine times. All his plans fell through. If Zhang Zhun must kneel, it will seem that the court is mean and unkind, which is counterproductive. In desperation, he had no choice but to say, "That...... I'll read the edict, and you just have to listen. ”

Zhang Zhun nodded, lying on his stomach seriously.

Shi Kefa was unwilling, but he had to start reading the edict.

"Fengtian carries the emperor, and the edict says ......"

“…… Announce to the world, make the salty make known"

The content of the edict is relatively large. Including Zhang Zhun was officially appointed as the governor of the Houjun Governor's Mansion, the chief military officer of Dongjiang Town, and was also in charge of the military affairs of Dengzhou Mansion and Laizhou Prefecture, and the commander of Dengzhou Water Division. Encourage Zhang Zhun to fight against the Tartars and make contributions to the country. Officials at all levels in Shandong should assist Zhang Zhun in fighting against the Tartars. These are all things to be expected, nothing special.

However, at the end of the edict, there is another intriguing content, that is, Zhang Zhun is required to pacify the Wenxiang Sect, and send the two Wenxiang Sect Wang Yilun and Xu Qingluan's levels to Jingshi. The edict also specifically mentioned that Wang Yilun had plotted against Zhang Zhun. This content was something that Zhang Zhun hadn't thought of before. It can be seen that the imperial court has also moved its hands and feet in this edict.

Who said that there are no capable people in the imperial court? When it comes to sowing discord and killing people with knives, every official in the imperial court is playing perfectly. No, as soon as the imperial court promised Zhang Zhun to preside over the second mansion of Denglai, it threw the hot potato of the Wenxiang Sect to Zhang Zhun for disposal. No matter what the outcome is, the imperial court will be able to remove a major problem.

For a long time, the relationship between Zhang Zhun and Wenxiangjiao has been unclear. The relationship between the two is not very close, but it has not reached the point of attacking each other. Wang Yilun secretly calculated against Zhang Zhun, which was originally limited to not too many people to know, but he didn't expect that the imperial court would also know. It seems that Dongchang and Jinyiwei are not completely dry.

Zhang Zhun sneered slightly, and said quietly: "Thank you for your concern in the court, Zhang is grateful." The matter of smelling the incense sect is something that the adults in the Lao Dynasty are worried about. ”

Shi Kefa said expressionlessly: "The rebellion of the Wenxiang Sect is really hateful, and you dare to plot against you, and you are even more innocent." Governor, you must kill them all, cut down the grass and eradicate the roots, and completely avoid future troubles. ”

Zhang Zhun nodded casually, and then stared deeply at Shi Kefa. Good son, it really deserves to eat the court meal, so soon I wish I had a fight with Wenxiangjiao. In addition to the means in the edict, your son also has to add oil and vinegar to the side. Actually, even if you didn't fan the flames here, I would have done something to Wenxiangjiao. Since Denglai Erfu is my territory, naturally there is no share of the Smelling Fragrance Sect.
